Chapter 22: Ruthless
Zunhua, of course, there is no latest news.
Because at this time, nearly 60,000 allied troops from Jianzhou and Mongolia had surrounded the city like an iron bucket, and naturally they could not transmit military information.
But with Yuan Chonghuan's defense, Zunhua is no longer as breakable as when they entered the customs.
On the contrary, it made the Ezhen people at all levels who supervised the battle under the city feel that they had returned to Ningyuan and Jinzhou, and their scalps were numb.
Not only that, after Yuan Chonghuan drove away the two blue banners and recovered Zunhua, he sent Zu Dashou to occupy Luanzhou, which was under the authority of the Jianzhou Army but was not stationed.
Therefore, Zunhua is not an isolated city now, and the two cities can still support each other.
The food and grass in the city also became relatively abundant due to the reduction of the defenders.
However, the Jianzhou side was not without gains, and the elite soldiers were dispatched, which quickly ensured the safety of the key passes of Longjing Pass and Daankou when entering the fortress.
However, when I came, the terrain was condescending, and I had to go back over the mountains.
If Yuan Chonghuan confirmed that the army was on the march, offset the field advantage of Jianzhou, and covered up the killing, then it is not good to say how many more banners of the Eight Banners can return to Liaoyang.
At the same time, Jianzhou did not dare to stay longer.
Who knows when the Western Army of the Ming Dynasty will come?
After all, in the eyes of Jianzhou at this time, the Ming Dynasty was still a behemoth, and they didn't know that the Ming Dynasty at this time had already gone bankrupt, and the so-called Western Army would join the peasant army in the future and become the main force to overthrow the old Zhu family.
Since the Eight Kings have discussed politics once before, it is natural for Jianzhou to decide the future in this way.
In the military discussion, the highest lord of the Eight Banners, Gushan Ezhen, also known as the owner of the banner, had a dignified face.
It's just that there are two missing of them, Yue Tuo, the owner of the small flag with red flags, and Azig, the owner of the white flag.
The red flag is the son of Dai Shan, Yue Tuo and Shuo Tuo, who are jointly in charge of the small flag owner, Yue Tuo is dead, and Shuo Tuo is too young to come in Liaoyang.
Azig, the owner of the White Flag, was because he wanted to kill You Shiwei, the chief soldier of Changping, because he hated it before, not only did he lose a lot of his own soldiers, but he was also stabbed into the ribs by You Shiwei before he died, and he couldn't get out of bed.
Because of this, in the Eight Kings Parliament launched by Amin, Huang Taiji's hardcore votes were only left for himself and his son Hauge, as well as Duoduo with a white flag.
But Duoduo was still young and was taking care of his seriously injured brother at the time, so in that Eight Kings Meeting, the two yellow flags and the two blue flags were tied, and only Dai Shan, who was the red flag, was left.
Seeing that Dai Shan's face was difficult, Huang Taiji knew that he couldn't do anything, so he made concessions in advance without waiting for him to make a final decision.
He was more reluctant to risk the Eight Banners split than to bow to Amin and Mang Gultai.
Of course, afterwards, he also communicated privately with Dai Shan and unified his opinions.
Dai Shan is older, and he is more concerned about how to bring back the plundered wealth and his subordinates neatly, rather than how to better fight Da Ming.
But Amin is different from him, he is the successor of Nurhachi's brother Shulhaqi.
In the early years, Shulhaqi had the intention of leaving Nurhachi and breaking up the family.
was imprisoned by the enraged Nurhachi, and killed his eldest son and Mongolian general.
However, his sons Amin and Zilharang were adopted by Nurhachi, who even gave Amin a large number of blue flags.
After Nurhachi's death, Amin, who had already achieved great success, had a different heart.
Not only did he intend to replace the Li clan of the royal family when he went to Korea, but he also used the Four Baylors and the Eight Kings Discussion System as a-stirring stick, so that Huang Taiji could not strengthen his control over the Eight Banners.
Sure enough, Amin first discussed the yin and yang strange aura in the military, "Old eight, let's talk about it, if you can bring us out, you have to bring us back to Shenyang with all our beards and tails." ”
Huang Taiji ignored him, and since he retreated in the previous Eight Kings Discussion, Amin has become more and more arrogant.
The more disrespectful Amin was to Huang Taiji, the more Daishan, Mang Gurtai and others began to look bad when they saw him.
After all, except for Amin, everyone is Nurhachi's son.
Although he didn't bow down to Huang Taiji's younger brother, he was a little unhappy when he saw his cousins bullying his own brother.
Dai Shan coughed, "Great Khan, I thought that if the whole army wanted to retreat now, we must first maintain the offensive against Zunhua. ”
"Otherwise, once the Yuan dog thief finds out that we intend to evacuate, he will definitely not let us retreat."
Mang Gurtai said worriedly, "The truth is this, but who will go first and who will stay?" ”
The six looked at each other.
To put it bluntly, no one wants to leave behind and give up the opportunity to live to others.
But if you wear it out like this, the situation will only become more dangerous.
In his absence last time, the young Duoduo who attended this time said timidly, "Why don't you let the Horqin people empress the palace?" They weren't our own people in the first place. ”
Under Huang Taiji's encouraging eyes, Duoduo continued, "And I heard from the Twelfth Brother that they complained in every way when they encountered a setback, and they were never soft when they asked for loot. My bannermen have had several frictions with them. ”
"When adults speak, how can you have the share of a child!" Amin frightened Dordor and made him cringe.
"Hugh is rude!" Dai Shan, as the eldest brother now, finally couldn't help it, "Since Duoduo has been sealed and the mountain is true, there is a place for him in the eight kings' discussions. If you disagree, say it! ”
Seeing that the good old man was angry, Amin was also a little stunned, "I'm also joking with my little nephew." After all, the Horqin Department is related to the Old Khan King and the Four Beylers by marriage, so selling the old man like this is not embarrassing for our Si Beyler?"
"What's more, the Horqin Department is not stupid, seeing that our Eight Banners are gone, how can they still stay? I'm afraid that if it wasn't for the Ming army, we started infighting first. ”
What Amin said also made sense, and everyone nodded one after another, still at a loss.
He added, "Now, Yue Tuobeizi has also passed away, and the red flag is unmanaged at this time. If you want me to say, Mo Ruo first sealed a bold Melle Ezhen, and let him lead the red flag to break off for us. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was really moved.
After all, everyone is worried about the loss of their own strength, Yue Tuo is dead, and Shuo Tuo is not there, so he can only suffer a little loss.
"No way!" Huang Taiji, who had been silent, said suddenly. "The red flag was given to Yue Tuo and Shuotuo by the old Khan King back then, and when Yue Tuo died, Shuotuo succeeded him as the banner owner."
"The Niu Lu managed by Yue Tuo, I want a lot to bring back to his young son!"
When Amin heard this, he said, "Since this is the case, then let Azig be the queen of the palace." It just so happens that he has difficulty moving, so he stays to recuperate! ”
When Duoduo heard this, his little face turned pale in a hurry, "No, you're trying to kill my eldest brother!" ”
Amin sneered, "Duoduo Belle, your eldest brother is the deposed prince Chu Ying, so he can't take Azig's turn. ”
"Or, do you think that Big Baylor and Fourth Baylor are not your brothers, so they are not your brothers?"
Azig, Dolgon, and Duoduo are the three of them and their mothers, and they are the most grouped, and it is Amin who provokes them with his words.
"Amin, Azig is seriously injured, so you need to be careful. Don't mess around anymore! Huang Taiji stopped.
"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, then you four Baylor have a trick!" Amin said with bad intentions.
Huang Taiji said indifferently, "I have made up my mind, so my eldest son, the lord of the Yellow Banner, Hauge, will break off with the Mongol soldiers, and buy time for us with the heart of Oba of the Ankorqin Division." ”
When everyone heard this, they all gasped.
The tiger poison does not eat children, but I didn't expect the Great Khan to be willing to let his son fill the tiger's mouth.
He really deserves to be the first ruthless person in Jianzhou!
