Chapter Seventy-Eight: Huang Taiji
A.D. 1640, the beginning.
Manchu state.
Several banner lords of the Manchu Qing Dynasty have received news that they are going to the imperial palace in Shengjing to hold a conference this year, and it is said that they are not allowed to ask for leave, but they have to come, and this time there is something important to announce.
The current eight banner masters of the Manchu Qing Dynasty are the Emperor Taiji, the main white flag.
The white flag is inlaid with the main hauge.
The main yellow flag is Duoduo.
Dorgon, the Lord of the Yellow Banner.
The red flag is the main for good.
The son of the Red Banner Lord Daishan Yue Tuo.
The main blue flag is concurrently served by Huang Taiji.
The blue flag lord Zilharang.
There are eight banners in total, but there are only seven banner owners in total.
At this time, except for Huang Taiji, the other banner masters had already come to the Fengtian Hall of the palace.
Hauge, the owner of the white flag, looks like a rough man, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his momentum is compelling.
The main yellow flag is Duoduo, who looks like an eagle, and the hooked nose of the eagle is huge.
Sitting next to him, Dolgon, is Dordor's younger brother, and his appearance is seven or eighty percent similar to Dordor, both of them have a hooked nose, deep eyes, and look extremely gloomy. Dolgon smiled sympathetically: "The Great Khan has not yet arrived?", although Huang Taiji has already been called the emperor, but there are only some Han ministers such as Fan Wencheng, Ning Wan I like to call Your Majesty, Shengshang.
These Manchu ministers still prefer to be called the Great Han.
Zhenghong Lord Daishan, this person is a big pie face, not heroic at all, he yawned, rubbed his somewhat swollen eyes, he was the third girl last night, and now he is still a little in good spirits: "It should be there later, let's wait." ”
And the red flag lord Yue Tuo, he sat next to Dai Shan, playing in spirit, he was a typical officer of the Shaozhuang faction, and he wanted to fight and establish military merits.
The blue lord Zierharang also has a big cake face, his face is still full of pockmarks, and he has a beard under his chin, he strokes his beard, and now the most powerful force in the Eight Banners is naturally Huang Taiji, and his son Haoge. Then there was Dordor, the branch of Dorgon. The third force is Dai Shan and Yue Tuo.
The last and smallest force is the one that is Zilharang, so he rarely speaks at the meetings of the banner masters.
After a while, Huang Taiji walked in accompanied by Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan and my two Wenchen.
Huang Taiji is also a typical big cake face, so that he is not covered with pockmarks, but looking at his appearance, he can only be mediocre, or even slightly ugly. In terms of appearance, they are not as good as Dorgon and the two brothers. It is said that the two brothers, Dordo and Dolgon, were born to Nurhachi and his most beautiful concubine, Dabahai, and looked more like Dabahai.
Of course, although Huang Taiji is not good looking, his ability is very strong. He was the most powerful emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and in his hands the Manchu power was no longer confined to the point outside the Guan, but to the north to Inner Mongolia and to the south to the Goryeo Kingdom. It was in his hands that he defeated the last elite of the Ming Dynasty. If it weren't for him, with the ability of others, it would be very difficult to enter the Central Plains.
And the two Wenchen behind Huang Taiji, Fan Wenchen was dressed in a Confucian shirt and held a feather fan in his hand, looking like he was in COS Zhuge Kongming, but I have to admit that Fan Wencheng, a dog traitor, does look good, so COS really looks a little like it.
On the other side, I am far worse than Ningwan, I am not tall, thin, and I look a little like a rat's head. However, he is indeed talented, and he should be a dog traitor early, so he is also quite reused by Huang Taiji.
Huang Taiji sat on his own position as emperor, but the other banner lords did not shout long live to him or anything, although the current Manchu Qing had a nominal emperor, but in fact, it still belonged to their own military power.
Just like the two brothers Duoduo and Dolgon, the soldiers and horses at hand are slightly less than in the hands of Huang Taiji.
Huang Taiji and Haoge, who were inlaid with white flags, had about 120 Niu Lu in their hands, that is, 36,000 soldiers and horses.
In the hands of the two brothers, there are about 100 oxen and about 30,000 soldiers and horses.
There are also 90 oxen in the hands of Zhenghong-inlaid Daishan and Yue Tuo, and there are also 27,000 soldiers and horses.
The gap between these three major forces is actually very small.
"What did you know I was looking for you this time?" Huang Taiji sat down and asked with a smile.
"If the Great Khan doesn't say it, how will we know. Dodor played with the ring made of human bones in his hand.
"Our biggest opponent is undoubtedly the Ming Dynasty. As for Li Zicheng, he is just a thief, and his combat effectiveness is extremely weak. ”
"The soldiers who can really fight in the Ming Dynasty now are only hundreds of thousands. And there are more than 100,000 soldiers on our side who can fight. Our soldiers are far more elite than those of the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, our military strength has already occupied an absolute advantage. Originally, I was planning a great operation this year, the General Battle. In this battle, the last elite army of the Ming Dynasty was killed. ”
"In this way, we can take advantage of the situation to attack the Central Plains and settle in Beijing. ”
"When the time comes, the world will change hands. ”
"However, I didn't expect that when I wanted to prepare for the battle, I found that there was a little lack of preparation, do you know what it is?" Huang Taiji stood up, leaned forward slightly, and looked at everyone.
Several flag masters present shook their heads, the entire overall situation was controlled by Huang Taiji, and they were only responsible for fighting.
"There is a shortage of food and grass, and this is the biggest problem that our army has encountered. Huang Taiji said.
"Lack of food and grass? Duoduo, the banner owner of the Zhenghuang Banner, couldn't help frowning: "Although it was said that there was a locust plague last year, our treasury has countless gold and silver robbed by the Ming Dynasty. Go directly to those Jin merchants to buy grain and grass. Could it be that these Jin merchants would not sell grain and grass? These Jin merchants could be sold by their parents. ”
Duoduo said sarcastically.
"Normally, of course, these Jin merchants sell grain and grass. ”
"However, recently there was a strange figure in the Ming Dynasty, named He Xuan, who was named the first warrior in the world by Emperor Chongzhen, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. This man is said to have extraordinary prowess. ”
"Jin merchants are generally called eight families, with Fan Jia as the head. But recently, the Fan family, as well as the Wang family, among the eight families of the Jin merchants, were all broken in by this person named He Xuan and destroyed the door. However, He Xuan found evidence of collusion with us in both the Fan family and the Wang family, so He Xuan destroyed the doors of these two families, and the court issued a reward instead. ”
"At this moment, the other six families of the Jin Merchants were scared. ”
These Jin merchants all said that He Xuan was staring at them, in case He Xuan first sold grain and grass and was discovered by He Xuan, He Xuan directly destroyed them, and they had no place to cry. So, they don't dare to do this kind of business lately. Huang Taiji smiled: "Therefore, the remaining six Jin merchants gave us a condition, asking us to kill this person named He Xuan, so that they dare to trade normally." ”
"Hey, He Xuan?" the banner owner of the blue flag, Jierharang, was stunned: "It's called He Xuan, right?"
Huang Taiji and the others all fixed their eyes on Ji'er Harang's body, and it was Huang Taiji who spoke first: "Have you heard of this person?"
"I have indeed heard that it is said that one of my subordinates, Niu Lu, took three hundred people to attack this person's small dun, it is said that the total strength of the small dun is only about fifty, it stands to reason that the three hundred people under my command should be able to eat hard. As a result, this Niu Lu was directly defeated, and more than 100 people were killed. According to the people who fled back, there was a fierce man named He Xuan in that small dun, and this person had the courage of ten thousand people, and he actually killed more than 100 people with more than 200 pairs. Zilharang shook his head: "I find this incredible. So I didn't believe it too much. ”
"Where in this world can there be a thing that can be won by one against two hundred. Ming Ting is only afraid that in order to create a hero, he will make such a false record. Dolgon, the Lord of the Yellow Banner, sneered.
The owners of other flags also said that this matter is too nonsense and really untrustworthy.
"With more than 200 enemies, still winning? Is that still a human being?"
Huang Taiji fell into deep thought, he was a very powerful person, but he really couldn't believe such a record.
"The condition given to us by the six masters of the Jin Shang is to kill this person named He Xuan. Huang Taiji said: "I decided to surround Jinzhou, encircle the point to send reinforcements, and attract the elite of the Ming Dynasty." ”
"And Ji'er Harang, you lead your men and horses, bypass the Shanhaiguan, attack the pass, go to the Qingshan Military Fort, and solve He Xuan, no problem. ”
Zilharang laughed strangely: "My subordinates, but they also have thirty Niu Lu and nearly 10,000 troops, of course there is no problem to deal with a mere military fort." If I miss, I can also bring up my head. ”
"Okay, that's it. Huang Taiji nodded, he didn't believe that Zilharang would miss, it was strange that he would miss a military fort with 9,000 men and horses.
The Manchu Qing Dynasty, the strongest military group of this era, such a huge war machine, decided to operate again with the decision of Huang Taiji.
This time, this huge war machine will first crush a character named He Xuan!
(Normally, my updates are two updates a day.) But the newly opened volume of the Battle of Songshan, I myself was born in Xianxia, and it was the first time I wrote about historical themes, so I didn't grasp it well, and I repeatedly designed the plot here, and I thought about it for so long now, so that I basically decided how to write this volume. However, it's so late today, and I'll change this chapter today. Tomorrow three more will be completed. )
(Tomorrow will be as early as possible.) )
