Chapter 215: Naha's Decision
Zheng Xiong is still recuperating from his injuries here.
At the same time, Nahachu, who was far away in Liaodong, received a letter from Zheng Xiong.
"Benhou Zhengxiong, thank you Lord Taiwei for being able to send people here to fight fairly, there are less than 100 injured in this battle, I don't know if Taiwei can fulfill his promise and attach it."
"However, time waits for no one, Yanmen has stayed too long, Ben Hou has to go back to report on his work, this battle Ben Hou wins, and he can only send the remnants of the Tai Lieutenant to the test to return to Tianfu."
"I can't wait for the Taiwei's reply, I dare to regret it, I hope the Taiwei will still fulfill his promise, if he comes to Tianfu in the future, this Hou will have a banquet and drink with the Taiwei."
"Zheng Xiong, respectfully!"
After reading Zheng Xiong's letter, Naha was very annoyed, and he was still wondering if there was something wrong on the road if Gao Basi and Hong Boyan hadn't come back for so long.
Unexpectedly, he was taken back to Yingtianfu by Zheng Xiong.
If you lose the competition, forget it, and take people away, so you don't talk about martial arts.
You don't say the specific experience, you don't know how to lose, how to fulfill the promise.
You have to know how you lost before you can formulate the next policy.
In short, Naha was quite annoyed.
Zheng Xiong has already left, and there is no choice but to call the guards.
"Come on, find some people to go to Yanmen to investigate, how the people I sent to compete that day were defeated, I want to know the specific process."
"Yes."
Under deliberate inquiry, he didn't let Naha wait long, and it only took two days to present the specific process of the day's competition on Naha's desk.
"What's the matter, it's only been two days, and you're done?"
"Taiwei didn't know that the scene of the day, the champion Hou Jiang's merchants in Yanmen were all summoned to watch the battle."
"Now that it has spread on the grassland, let's inquire a little and find out what happened."
"It's untrue, and I went to ask elsewhere, which only delayed for two days."
"After summarizing, the situation that day was very different from what was said that day, so I came to tell the captain to know."
"That's good."
Hearing what he wanted to hear, the guards also affirmed the authenticity of the information, and Naha didn't doubt it, and took out the news summarized in front of him and looked at it.
An unsuspenseful battle unfolded in front of Naha.
Due to the distance, the merchants watching the battle did not know the specific information of the battle.
Only knew that the Yuan army of the Ming army's three-plate axe was powerless to fight back.
Combined with Zheng Xiong's letters.
From beginning to end, only paid the price of more than 100 people, and Zheng Xiong became the winner of this competition.
Such a disproportionate engagement made Naha take a deep breath.
I know that the Ming army is very strong, but it is really embarrassing to be so strong.
The situation is grim, and Naha deduces the direction of the situation from his heart, if Lao Zhu comes to attack.
In the face of the Ming army, which was in full swing and had never been defeated, there was no chance of victory for the hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands.
If he defended according to the danger, the earth-shaking thunder that Zheng Xiong threw with a trebuchet in the test was even more incomprehensible.
The only feasible thing is to use the mobility advantage of the cavalry to play hide and seek with the Ming army.
But there is not much chance of dragging down the Ming army like this.
The Ming army's clairvoyant mirror is no secret, Nahachu has already known its existence from his own channels, and the odds of victory are still not high.
Unless you go into the woods and fight guerrilla warfare with the Ming army, you can have a chance to drag down the Ming army.
But in this way, it is basically a state of waiting for death, even if the Ming army is dragged down, it will not be easy for him.
After all, they are used to living a good life, and if they suddenly live a hard life, don't think about it, the result of the army's morale plummeting will be to scatter birds and beasts.
The basic plate may not be maintained.
So it's a lose-lose game.
And unlike history, the battle of Mobei and the living forces of Lin Yuan's army were basically wiped out, and Liaodong did not escape the supplement of the Yuan army.
Therefore, Liaodong's troops have not been replenished in history, and there are 200,000 men and horses.
Now that there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, Nahachu does not have enough courage to fight against Lao Zhu's army.
When you think about it, the odds of winning are slim.
Seeing the final result, Naha sighed dejectedly and then said.
"Come here, send an order to the civil and military, and come to discuss the matter."
The civil and military forces gathered in Jinshan hurriedly came when they heard Naha's order.
The hall was full of people, and Naha was in a high position, and when everyone was almost gathered, he slowly spoke.
"I summoned everyone to come here today because I have reached a precarious moment in Liaodong."
"Emperor Shun and Zhaozong have been captured by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty and imprisoned by Yingtian, and my Liaodong is now like water without roots, the name is not right, and the survival is only overnight."
"A month ago, I sent to Yanmen to test, and the five thousand military horses that competed were defeated by the Ming army.
After saying that, Nahachu continued.
"The earth-shattering thunder of the Ming army must have heard of it, close combat can determine the outcome of the battle, and the same is true for long-range attacks now."
"There is no suspense about the offensive and defensive situation, and I summoned you here to ask you for your opinions, and I will speak freely, and I will not hold you accountable."
After listening to Nahachu's analysis, in fact, everyone also understood the form, and they already knew Nahachu's attitude.
This air of decadence is undoubtedly biased towards surrender.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have said such mournful words.
"Tai Lieutenant, the subordinate is not talented, but the Tai Lieutenant is the first to look forward."
Someone took the lead, and the rest of the people also expressed their stance to Naha, anyway, you are the boss, no matter how you decide, you just follow you.
"The form is like this, it's not for me to decide, we have tens of thousands of soldiers in Liaodong, nearly a million people, I can't watch them die."
"I've decided to surrender, what do you think?"
Unexpected, reasonable.
Naha's surrender was deliberate, and it must have been a decision that was made through a combination of factors.
There are still people with iron heads, but they are all reckless words, and they are vetoed by Naha one by one.
It wasn't until a different opinion came out that Naha's eyes lit up and he showed a thoughtful expression.
"Tai Lieutenant, the Ming army has fought in all directions in recent years, from south to north, all the way on the way to war."
"According to the lower officials, it must not last long, and its grain and grass logistics cannot support the needs of successive battles."
"It can be seen from the repeated surrender documents sent by the emperors of the Ming Dynasty."
"Maybe they can win, but the cost is also high, and it won't shake the fundamentals."
"But surrendering now is also beneficial, Emperor Ming will definitely not treat us badly for the sake of ruling needs."
"Just surrender doesn't have to be a complete surrender, the captain can try it first."
"My Liaodong can be under the rule of Emperor Ming, but my Liaodong still maintains its independence, and it is inevitable to divide one side."
After thinking about it for a while, he was vetoed by Naha.
"Forget it, there is no point in this, even if Emperor Ming is jealous of me, he can't afford to fight now."
"What if you're ready?"
"This kind of secession with a different name is not something that an emperor will like."
"The emperor of the Ming Dynasty wouldn't tolerate it."
"So be it! Whether the envoy of the Ming Dynasty is still there, let him bring back the instrument of surrender. ”
After Naha finished speaking, he left, heralding the end of the meeting.
