Chapter XVIII Voting
Back in his sweat tent, Huang Taiji was surprised to find that Amin and Mang Gurtai, who were waiting in the tent, were both depressed, and they did not rely on the old and sell the old as they did on weekdays.
Surprised to surprised, Huang Taiji still said heavily, "Big Belle, Yue Tuo can't do it, do you want to go and see him?"
Dai Shan was slightly shocked, after all, it was his instinct as a father who prevailed, and he sighed and said, "Father and son, I'll go to see him for the last time." Great Khan, you better hear the news that Amin and they have brought. ”
Huang Taiji looked at Amin, only to see this cousin, who was usually arrogant, suddenly twisted a little and said, "That, Zunhua City is lost." ”
Zunhua lost?
Huang Taiji only felt dizzy, "How could Zunhua lose it?" Your two blue flags add up to more than 10,000 regular soldiers, and you can't hold a Zunhua city? ”
The Mang Gurtai urn on the side said angrily, "Great Khan, we have been tricked, then Yuan Chonghuan turned out not to die, it was a bitter plan laid by the emperor of the Ming Kingdom, and I still saw his banner under the city." ”
"Yuan Chonghuan brought 40,000 soldiers and horses from Liaozhen, as well as a few red-clothed cannons, how can we resist it?"
Amin sighed and said, "I also said that Cao Cao beheaded Cai Mao, and the faint king of Nikan (Manchu-speaking Han) fell for our counter-plot." Unexpectedly, it was Zhou Yu who beat Huang Gai, one was willing to fight, and the other was willing to suffer. It just keeps us in the dark. ”
Huang Taiji said impatiently, "Don't go any further, what does this matter have to do with "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" now?" ”
He paced in the tent, "It turns out that the ancestor Dashou broke away, but in fact, the Ming Dynasty moved troops to attack Zunhua and killed Yuan Chonghuan alive, just to deceive us to besiege Jingshi." ”
Amin said impatiently, "Old Eight (Huangtai Ji Xingba), when is it, and this review is still on hold." Hurry up and think of a trick! ”
Mang Gurtai also chimed in, "Sibeile, I was worried that the Ming army would cut off our back road when I was in the Liaohe River. Now that I'm really right, we can't all leave it here, right? ”
Huang Taiji said calmly, "It's okay. The Ming army just took advantage of my unpreparedness to fight more and less. In frontal field battles, the Ming army was never our opponent. ”
He asked, "Have you ever sent your troops to reinforce the various passes where we entered the fortress?" ”
Amin and Mang Gultai looked at each other and shook their heads like rattles.
Huang Taiji sighed.
In the face of these two mindless and unhappy, he knew that he really couldn't count on them, so he could only think of his own ideas.
After thinking for a moment, he turned to Amin and Mang Gultai, "According to Nikan, there are three strategies for today's plan. ”
Amin and the two looked at each other and scratched their heads.
Don't say three, even if you sell them together, you can't think of a way, so you can only listen to Huang Taiji's details.
I only listened to Huang Taijidao, "This best strategy is to take Yuan Chonghuan's intention to block my back road, and when Liaozhen is empty, go straight to Shanhaiguan!" ”
Amin stammered, "Sibeile is the first line of Ningjin, and we have never broken through Yuan Chonghuan's defense in Jianzhou. That Shanhaiguan is known as the first pass in the world, even if we take our lives to fill it, we may not be able to win it, right? ”
Huang Taiji shook his head and said, "These fortresses of the Ming Kingdom are closed, and they are guarding against enemies outside the Great Wall, and the defense of the city facing the country may not be very rigorous. We are now in the heart of the Ming Kingdom, and we can attack it unprepared. ”
Mang Gurtai nodded slightly, "If this battle is won, it will be of great strategic significance. Our army returned to Jianzhou through western Liaoning, and at the same time sent a small group of men and horses to block and burn the gate. The Guanning Jin defense line that the Ming Dynasty painstakingly managed has been abandoned in half. ”
Huang Taiji's plan is to attack the east and the west, and in response to the policy, the enemy is not prepared.
Amin still disagrees with this point of view, "The fifth (Mang Gurtai Xing five), the eighth, although this strategy has great benefits, but the risk is not small." ”
He asked Huang Taiji, "Old Ba, how can you say accurately, Shanhaiguan must be empty of garrison?" Even if the city defense is weak, the Ming army defending the city may not all be transferred to King Qin. ”
"On the contrary, if other Ming armies support, we will really be blocked under the city, and there will be no place to escape!"
Hearing Amin's analysis, Mang Gultai nodded, "Reasonable, although this plan is wonderful, the risk is too great." Old eight, what does Zhongce say? ”
Huang Taiji saw that the two of them easily vetoed their best strategy, and he was a little unhappy.
So he said, "This middle strategy is to turn to attack Tongzhou and burn its accumulation, just like Cao Cao's official crossing and burning the black nest!" ”
Mang Gurtai tasted it carefully, stroked his palms and sighed, "What a plan! Since then, the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty have become a problem with logistics. ”
Huang Taiji said with a smile, "Not only that, our army can advance slowly, and the Ming army will inevitably lead troops to rescue when they hear the news." ”
"Now the Ming army in the capital division is barely maintained, and even relies on the suspicious tactics of the people outside the city to make me retreat. It is impossible to say, the emperor of the Ming State will also transfer Yuan Chonghuan out of Zunhua to rescue grain and grass and military supplies. ”
Mang Gurtai laughed, took over the conversation and said, "If Yuan Chonghuan advances in the same way, then our army will wait for work, just like the destruction of that Zhao Sect that day, and will block our Liaozhen soldiers and horses, and bury them from now on!" ”
Huang Taiji also laughed, as if he had met a bosom friend, and by the way, he looked at Mang Gurtai more than before.
Amin sat on the side, as if considering something.
Seeing Mang Gurtai and Huang Taiji looking at him, Amin shook his head, "It's not appropriate, it's not appropriate." ”
Huang Taiji was a little impatient, but after all, the other party was old and had a lot of military achievements, so he could only ask, "What's wrong?"
Amin said, "Do you know that the one who guards Tongzhou now is Sun Gaoyang Sun Chengzong, who is Yuan Chonghuan's master. Yuan Chonghuan's ability to defend the city was not taught by Sun Gaoyang. ”
"So what?" Huang Taiji sneered. "The so-called disciple does not have to be inferior to the teacher, and the teacher does not have to be better than the disciple. Sun Gaoyang's ability to fight the enemy in battle was originally inferior to Yuan Chonghuan, and he had been besieged by us many times, and even suffered from the fall of the Ming court. ”
Amin didn't seem to notice Huang Taiji's emotions, "This is not wrong. But have we captured the city that Sun Gaoyang is defending?"
Huang Taiji was speechless.
Amin continued, "Old Ba, when you captured Zunhua City, when you talked about meritorious deeds, you said that we were not afraid of Ming Jiancheng from now on. At that time, I felt that it was inappropriate, the so-called soldiers were bears, and we could lay down Zunhua, but the root was that the Ming army guards were incompetent, and the soldiers had no fighting spirit. ”
"But now that we are going to attack Tongzhou, the other party not only has Sun Gaoyang who is familiar with the method of defending the city, but also has the accumulation of the Ming State in the city, and he is not afraid of the consumption of being besieged at all, and the morale is only high and not low. When I really arrived at the city of Tongzhou, I couldn't beat it, and I couldn't surround it. What do you think you should do? ”
Huang Taiji sneered, "That's the next step." As the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom planned, we first went to Zunhua City and set up camp.
After a pause, Huang Taiji said again, "It's just that we must not really fall into the trap and attack Zunhua City." In the early stage, the whole army first attacked and bluffed, and then left a small force into a suspicious strategy, and the main force returned to the grassland from the mountain pass by the same route. ”
Amin and Mang Gultai glanced at each other and said in unison, "That's it." ”
Huang Taiji laughed angrily, "Impossible! As long as I'm still sweating profusely, I won't leave my own people to survive. Not to mention that if the Ming army has already captured all the passes, our Eight Banners will also be doomed. ”
He looked at the two of them and said categorically, "I want to lead the army to take Tongzhou." ”
Amin glanced at Huang Taiji and said coldly. "Old eight, this can't help you."
"Who told you to fold Yue Tuo under the Jingshi City, but you mistakenly fell for the Ming people's suspicious tactics, and you have lost a total of 2,000 men and horses these days?"
"According to the system left by the old Khan King at the beginning, I propose that the lords of the Eight Banners, such as the Great Belle and Azig, be called now. I want the eight kings to discuss politics, and then see the results of the big guy's vote! ”
