From spring to autumn, the word "Taichang", in this time and space, not only replaced "Wanli", nor was it replaced by "Apocalypse", but successfully became the name of the Ming Empire in 1621 AD.

On the ancient Northeast Asian continent, Hetuala, the capital of the Later Jin Kingdom, not far from Korea, is the era name used here is "Mandate of Heaven".

The head wolf of the Jianzhou Jurchens, the "male lord of the generation" Nurhachi in the mouth and pen of later historians, is sixty-two years old in the sixth year of the Mandate of Heaven.

Folk often say that when people are old, their temperament will be soft and benevolent.

But that's the law that applies to mediocrity.

Nurhachi, in the year of the sixtieth year, in every morning awakened by the light of daylight, felt more fighting spirit burning than the day before, and wanted to see the conquest scene of sword light and blood shadow more.

Five years ago, the first time he attacked Fushun, an important town of the Ming Kingdom, he was ambushed and returned with a sense of humiliation, which has gradually been dispersed by the achievements of conquering Yehebu, unifying the Jurchens in Liaodong, and marrying the Mongolian Horqin.

The raiding plan that bypassed Mongolia last year and along the Xuanda route of the Ming Kingdom was partially realized, and it also made the Famine Jurchens further understand that only by desperately pounceing on the Ming and Han people like wild beasts, their own bloodline can be passed on for generations.

"Zhubele, my warriors of the founding state. Qinghe Fort and Fushun can't gnaw down, it doesn't matter, Yehebu has become under our rule, we don't have to go west now, just go north, Zhuqi and Lianjun, capture Kaiyuan and Tieling, and after recuperating for a while, then turn around and go south, and set out with Hetuala, through the reinforcements between Fushun and Qinghe Fort, and attack on both sides until we capture Shenyang."

In the "Great Yamen of the Khan's Palace" in the city of Hetuala, Nurhachi got up from the carved dragon chair, walked to the sand table, and announced the next battle plan with his sons and grandchildren with high spirits.

Suddenly, the old sweat raised his eyes, and his eagle-sharp gaze pierced at the Four Baylor Emperor Taiji.

"What's the matter, fourth, you don't want to send troops?"

Huang Taiji calmly took a step forward: "Amma, how could my son not want to attack the Ming Kingdom, but I just feel that Kaiyuan and Tieling can fight again next year."

"Why?"

Without waiting for Huang Taiji to elaborate, Sanbeile Manggultai had already snorted in his nose and said mockingly: "I think Sibeile wants to join the Yellow Sect, which the Mongolians like, and is ready to eat fasting and chant Buddha with a white flag, accumulate virtue and do good."

"Uncle, what are you talking about?" A young voice came from behind.

It is the son of the great Belle Daishan, Yue Zhen.

Mang Gurtai turned his head, and the look of triumph in his eyes was a little thicker, as if he was looking at a little milk dog that rushed out of the oblique thorn to defend its master, barking and demonstrating.

"My stupid nephew," Mang Gurtai deliberately said the Manchu meaning of the word "Yue Zhi", and said with a smile, "Your Uncle Huang Taiji, he does have a pair of bodhisattva intestines, this year their banner of the white flag was bullied by Ni Kan (referring to the Han Chinese), and he actually didn't let his subordinate Niu Lu Ezhen cut off a few Ni Kan's heads to stand up. Ah, by the way, I think about it, you must have learned the kindness of the four beylers, and I heard that when you stole their artillery two years ago in the Ming Kingdom, you almost got their little widow to be a side blessing."

"Sanbeile," Huang Taiji patted Mang Gultai's shoulder in time, signaled Yue Zhen with his gaze to suppress the raging anger, and said gently, "Sanbeile, let's be uncles, don't make jokes about juniors like this, Yue Cheng is a good boy, and Amma's blessing is also blessing him, that time, Nikan's smallpox didn't hurt him."

When Huang Taiji and Yue Zhen, the two uncles and nephews, stood up for each other, Yue Zhen's biological father, Da Beile Daishan, was expressionless.

Dai Shan, who has a noble Jurchen status in Jianzhou, was originally designated as the crown prince by Nurhachi. But Dai Shan, at the instigation of the current Fujin, suppressed the sons left by Yue and Shuo Zhuang, two ex-wives. This reminded Nurhachi of his teenage years when he was abused by his stepmother.

Nurhachi was furious, stripped Dai Shan's title of prince, and assigned the red flag under his command to Yue Xuan, leaving only the positive red flag to Dai Shan.

At this moment, Nurhachi looked at the children and grandchildren in front of him, convinced that none of them were fuel-efficient lamps, but some of them showed their fangs wildly, and some of them quietly shrunk their claws

Under the robe.

The old chieftain was happy with the situation.

"It is because there is discord between each other, that they will rush to make meritorious contributions in the external battle, and the land and people of the Ming Kingdom will eventually become the wealth and slaves of our Jianzhou Jurchen."

Thinking of this, Nurhachi threw a compassionate gaze at his most admired son, Huang Taiji: "Old eight, do you think that this year's Houjin is not strong enough for the soldiers?"

"Yes Amma," Huang Taiji said respectfully, "Moreover, the Han people have not been as obedient as they used to be recently, and the banners still need to be appeased before they can be sure in future battles."

"Calm the fart, according to Amma's rules, just kill them all," Mang Gurtai still jumped out and rebuked, "What about those territories that were originally owned by the Nikans? Their own masters of the Ming Kingdom don't care about them, and if we occupy them, they should be our coats. Huang Taiji, have you forgotten how you fished when you were a child? If the fish twist badly in the net, smash their heads with a big stick."

The "rules of Amma" mentioned by Mang Gurtai refers to the order that Nurhachi had just issued at the age of this year: the Han people under the rule of the Later Jin, who had not yet been incorporated into the Eight Banners, even if they were scholars, must accept the Jurchens into their villages, granges, and houses, and if they rebelled, the nearest Niu Lu Ezhen could directly slaughter the village.

This rule, which was supposed to appear a few years later in history, was issued together with the "migration order" for the coastal Han people in Fuzhou, Gaizhou and other places, resulting in the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of Han aborigines in Liaodong.

This world appeared in advance, because the military defense line of Fushun and other Ming Dynasty was not broken, and the Jianzhou Jurchens could not obtain the land and wealth that could be buffered in recent years, and the rapidly expanding Jurchen population could only compete for resources with the Han people who originally belonged to the Ming Nuer Gandu Division outside the Ming Pass, from Kuandian in the south to the Daqing River in the north.

The far-sighted Huang Taiji actually did not agree with his father's extreme approach, how could a hunter kill his own hunting dogs to eat meat.

However, Huang Taiji, who covets the position of the head wolf, will not be too tough against his father in terms of policy towards the Han people.

After all, he currently only has a positive white flag, and Yue Zhen, who is as close to him as father and son, has just received the red flag, and if he wants to become the next Jurchen leader, it is best to get the two flags of Zhenghuang and Huangzhong in his father's last words, so as to suppress the other three banner owners.

Huang Taiji then nodded at Mang Gurtai with hypocritical respect as always: "Sanbeile is also right, the Han people have a saying, it is called not to cry if you don't see the coffin."

He also said to his father Nurhae: "Great Khan, in fact, my son wants to attack Kaiyuan and Tieling again next year, and the more important reason is that the Tong family's artillery has not yet been built."

Nurha sighed sullenly.

He wasn't so stupid as to get angry. It is not easy for the intelligent Huang Taiji to arrange for Yue Yu and the Tong family brothers and sisters to go to Nanzhili in the Ming Kingdom to steal firearms.

But the woman surnamed Zheng in the Ming Kingdom, and her compatriots were not stupid, and they met again at a critical moment in the dark night, and captured the blacksmith Du who had already obtained the French diagram of firearms by the river.

The spies who fled back to Hetuara could only guide the Manchu craftsmen of Houjin to grope based on the impressions of the firearms they had seen in Chongming.

Hearing the younger brother mention firearms, Sambel reckless Gurtai put away his aggressive and aggressive attitude.

Because, this is also an opportunity for him to ask for credit in front of his father.

"Amma," Mang Gurtai continued, "Jujube Blossom is also thinking about firing artillery for Uzhen Chaoha with the craftsmen of the Blue Banner."

Wuzhen Chaoha, is the name of the Later Jin for the Han flag army in each Niulu, because the earliest Han people outside the Guanwai, some of them are military households of the Ming Kingdom, and they will use firearms like their fathers, so in the eyes of the Jurchens who have always used cold weapons, Wuzhen Chaoha is synonymous with firearms soldiers.

Nurhachi was naturally happy to hear that his sons were working hard to increase Houjin's new military equipment.

He also showed a fatherly smile to Mang Gultai: "Jujube Flower Girl, if you can really turn her hatred for that black-hearted master surnamed Zheng into a cannon that blasts the gates of the Ming Kingdom, you can marry her."

No matter how rough and straightforward Mang Gurtai was, he also remembered that he had just laughed at his nephew Yue Yu a moment ago and wanted to accept a Ming woman as a side blessing.

Sanbeile then suppressed the joy in his heart, and flattered his father from another topic: "Today, I heard E-Niang say that Amma's head wind has been committed again, and the son-in-law will ask the jujube girl to boil some crow soup and offer it to Amma."

Nurhachi sighed "hmm", expressing his readiness to accept his son's filial piety.

Behind everyone, among the other nobles attending the meeting outside the core military power of the Houjin Dynasty, Mang Gurtai's half-brother Dege class, when he heard the words "Divine Crow Soup", a strange feeling surged in his chest.

The huge sand table not far away seems to have turned into a vast snowfield in that winter.

The Han woman, who took revenge on her ruthless master, changed her fierceness when she sought revenge, and brought him, a patient who was suffering from severe abdominal pain, a steaming medicinal soup, and told him gently but surely, "If you drink it, you will be fine."

Dege class clearly remembered that after the jujube girl saw that his brows began to stretch, she even said with a joking meaning: "The southern barbarians in our Han people, call this *** shell, called ***." I heard that you Jurchens worship crows as messengers of the gods, so why don't you call this medicinal soup the crow soup?"

After the Derge class woke up in the faint memory, he stared at Mang Gurtai's tall back, and he was a little confused.

He hoped that the jujube girl could make the crow soup, but he couldn't make the firearms used by the Ming people.
