The fierce north wind has failed to succeed. Chapter 46: Sharing worries

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    On December 20, the sixth year of the Apocalypse, Xiapu Huangshi summoned all his senior officers for a general military meeting. Huangshi's troops had rich experience in the 6th war. Huangshi himself was the most confident about the 6th war, and Changsheng Island Water Camp had many years of experience.  Although Shi Ce was a pirate from the Fujian Sea who had never fought a battle, he had probably forgotten his old profession a long time ago.  After discussion, everyone agreed that the rapid development of the Navy was unrealistic.  Moreover, the wood used to make boats needs to be thoroughly dried, otherwise it will deform when exposed to water.  Shipbuilders of wood, such as the keels of large battleships, believed it would take two to three years to dry and then another one to two years to build the ship.  Such a long time really makes Huangshi feel a little intolerable. However, a ship made after drying can sail for more than fifty years. If it is not completely dried, it can usually sail for five or six years. Wood that is too fresh may fall apart when exposed to water.  Huang Shi suspects that the underlying principle lies in whether all the cells in the tree have died.  Perhaps a completely dried tree has no living cells and will not deform even if it is exposed to water; while wood that still has living cells may absorb water or dehydrate, causing the wood to deform.  But this is just an idea. He plans to find an opportunity to bake the wood to see if he can solve this time problem.  Now Yang Zhiyuan is still in Japan and Liu Qingyang is still in Dengzhou.  Among the senior officers who have arrived in Funing, He Dingyuan and Li Yunrui firmly support the pacification of Southwest China first. Both of them believe that they can play a greater role on the ground.  Zhao Manxiong remained neutral for the time being because he hadn't thought about it yet.  Bao Bowen, Hong Antong and Zhang Zaidi all felt that this was not within their scope of responsibilities, so they had no objections.  Although Fan Leyou is somewhat inclined to the navy, his words are not strong enough to fight against He Dingyuan and Li Yunrui, and he is not as firm as the latter two.  As for Duncan, although he has a lot of say, he is also very conflicted in his heart. Duncan's favorite thing is cannons. Building a navy will definitely create more and bigger cannons, but Duncan has no experience in the navy.  No matter how many cannons the navy has, it has nothing to do with him.  Finally Duncan remained cautiously silent.  "In the end, our town decided to give priority to sending troops to the southwest to quell the rebellion. The imperial court ordered this town to attack She Chongming, An Bangyan and other rebels. As for the Fujian pirates, the deputy general of the South Road, General Yu, was always responsible for clearing out the rebellion. It would be easy for this town to intervene rashly.  The misunderstanding between him and his colleagues may have delayed the time of sending troops to the southwest, and he was impeached by the Yushi Yanguan. " Huang Shi then lowered his voice and said to the confidants in the room: "Secondly, even if we both want to attack that.  It was also the Japanese pirates in the Fujian Sea who came after the She'an Rebellion. After all, She Chongming and An Bangyan had tens of thousands of bandits. If they could not be suppressed for a long time, the strength of the southwest rebels would definitely increase day by day. If they were to deal with it in the future, the trouble would become even greater.  And the Fujian bandits are still fighting among themselves. I don¡¯t think they can achieve anything for a while.¡± He Dingyuan and Li Yunrui naturally shouted in favor of Jin Qiude. Although they still tended to take the conservative route, they saw that Huang Shi had no intention of wavering.  Then he no longer persisted: "Since the commander-in-chief has given the order, he will naturally obey it." Huang Shi nodded with satisfaction. Jin Qiude's habit of speaking out loudly when he has an opinion, but resolutely carrying out the order after giving it is very good: "Well  Let¡¯s put an end to the big trouble of the She¡¯an Rebellion first. If the incident in the Fujian Sea is not resolved after we return to our division, we can easily put an end to these pirates. This will take less time than taking care of both. If something goes wrong in Liaodong, we can also deal with it.  Jiang Nan pulled away. "Jin Qiude didn't say anything, but there was still a trace of disapproval on his face.  Apparently he thought some people in Huangshi were worried.  Huang Shi did not try to persuade Jin Qiude, but just smiled and said: "We don't have much time to waste."  At the end of December of the sixth year of Tianqi, Mao Wenlong, the commander-in-chief of Dongjiang, the Capital Division, sent two urgent reports to Beijing this month.  He believed that Hou Jin had an attempt to attack Liaodong on a large scale, but Mao Wenlong judged that Hou Jin's target was Kuandian rather than North Korea. Because Mao Wenlong believed that Hou Jin did not have enough time to achieve any results in North Korea, he asked the court for help and ordered the Dongjiang Town Rightist Association to mobilize.  After Mao Wenlong's writing arrived at the Dusi Mansion in Liaodong.  The ministers of the Liaodong Economic Strategy King immediately ordered envoys to rush out and order the Mongolian ministries to prepare to send troops to Liaodong.  In order to contain the field forces of Houjin to cooperate with the Ming army in the Kuandian area "A memorial from the officials of the King of Liaodong Economic Strategy: In recent years, the slave chiefs have sought peace with the Western captives, but the Western captives refused; they surrendered to North Korea, but North Korea refused. Once peace is negotiated, they must  Being detached from the enemy will help you to isolate yourself! Recently, the official issued a general order to punish the prisoners and said: "You Han people have no brains and only say that I can't help you, but you carry a lot of gold and silk lamas to pay tribute to him, but instead ask for peace."  If you teach others to be enemies with him, we might as well surrender. 'According to this, what will I say in response?" After receiving the urgent reports from Dongjiang Town, Emperor Tianqi held another cabinet meeting and personally read through Wang Zhishen's memorial to Liaodong.  In several recent memorials, Jinglue burst into tears saying that various Mongolian tribes either explicitly or covertly refused to go out.The soldiers restrained Hou Jin.  Bayan Mongolia and other tribes have always been hardcore supporters of the Ming Dynasty, but this time they all felt unhappy and felt betrayed by the Ming Dynasty.  When Lin Dan Khan was attacked in the sixth year of Tianqi, Mao Wenlong heard about it and shouted, "The safety of Liaodong depends on this!" Then he ordered the soldiers and horses of Dongjiang Town to attack Haizhou and Anshan with all their strength, forcing Nurhaci to return to the army.  But this time even Lin Dan Khan declined Wang Zhichen's call. Lin Dan Khan was very dissatisfied in his reply: he accused the Ming Dynasty of wanting to abandon him. After Chahar had a conflict with Hou Jin for the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty wanted to leave Chahar alone.  You will face the enemy yourself.  Although the dialects of various Mongolian tribes are different, the central meaning is that they are all here to help. If the Ming Dynasty does not want to fight, then they are not willing to make enemies against themselves.  The king's ministers were deeply worried about this and wrote a letter requesting the court to strictly prohibit the peace talks so as not to chill the hearts of the vassals.  Wang Zhichen also believed that the Ming army in Kuandian would face a very severe situation. If they wanted to save the situation, they would have to send envoys to appease the Mongolian ministries and at the same time send troops to support Dongjiang Town to strengthen the bridgehead of the Ming army in Kuandian, Liaodong.  Tianqi stated Wang Zhichen's views and then asked the cabinet: "What do you have to say?" "Your Majesty, the governor of Liaodong also has a memorial on this matter." Gu Bingqian shook his head and read Yuan Chonghuan's memorial.  This memorial is very long.  But the central meaning is correct, that is, under the management of Yuan Chonghuan, the situation in western Liaoning is not good, average, but great, especially good. Yuan Chonghuan swore to the court that the Jin army would never dare to attack North Korea and would definitely come.  Attack Liaoxi.  Yuan Chonghuan analyzed the situation to the emperor and said: According to his judgment, the current strategic situation is not at all what Mao Wenlong said if the Jin army was really mobilized.  The purpose was undoubtedly western Liaoning, and Yuan Chonghuan also gave the location: Jinzhou, Youtun and Ningyuan.  Finally, Yuan Chonghuan went one step further and assured Tianqi angrily: "I will divide my troops into three routes and set up defenses so that the captives will never come back." After finishing his analysis of the strategic situation, Yuan Chonghuan immediately used his high political sense and thought that Wang Zhichen was jealous of him.  Yuan Chonghuan reminded the emperor of the past experience when Xiong Tingbi and Wang Huazhen reconciled their discord, and begged the emperor to have full trust in him.  And severely crack down on Wang Zhichen's opportunities to frame his colleagues.  Yuan Chonghuan's memorial was so impassioned that the cabinet almost unanimously sympathized with him. The cabinet had planned to recommend to Tianqi to support Yuan Chonghuan, but they found that it was no longer necessary.  After listening to the memorial, Tianqi ordered: "Speak well to appease the governor of Liaodong and tell him that I will not listen to slander. Then I will give the next reprimand to the Liaodong Dusi Mansion, telling the king's ministers to concentrate on their work and not to stare at their own people all day long. The cabinet proposed  "Vote." "According to the order," Gu Bingqian agreed and waited for a while, but there was one more thing that the emperor did not give absolutely clear instructions. But Gu Bingqian would never take the risk of being a villain. He asked again: "Your Majesty.  How should Liao affairs be planned?" "Of course it is up to the governor of Liaodong." "According to the order." Gu Bingqian agreed hurriedly so that even if Wang Zhishen was dissatisfied, he would not blame Gu Fu.  ¡­¡­¡­ In the early morning of the first day of the seventh year of the Apocalypse, Xiamen Huangshi said goodbye to Zhu Yifeng, the governor of Fujian.  Then he left Quanzhou and went straight to Xiamen. By the evening of the same day, Huangshi was already in front of the Deputy General Military Mansion on South Road.  "Commander, isn't this first-day gift you prepared for General Yu a bit" Hong Antong didn't like Huang Shi's gift and couldn't help but objected again.  "Oh." Huang Shi personally carried a bag of pig's trotters in addition to other gifts. He smiled after hearing Hong Antong's worried question, raised the bag of pig's trotters high in his hand, looked at it, and smiled without looking back.  Said: "It doesn't matter, this is very good." Yu Zigao has made many military exploits in the past years of guarding Fujian, but he has no connections in the court, middle and backstage, and no strong Austrian aid.  This time, after Huang Shi came to snatch his position, Yu Zigao was naturally angry and simply stayed in Xiamen.  After Huangshi arrived in Fujian, Yu Zigao also excused himself from being able to visit because he was busy with military affairs.  When Huang Shi went to Quanzhou for the first time to meet Zhu Yifeng, the governor of Fujian, Zhu Yifeng even talked to Huang Shi for a long time, telling Huang Shi not to be on the same level as Yu Zigao and to understand the resentment in Yu Zigao's heart.  Huang Shi also expressed his deep gratitude to Governor Zhu for his care and generously said that he would never care about an old man who was not young.  However, Hong Antong didn't seem to have a good impression of Zhu Yifeng. After going out, he secretly reminded Huang Shi: "Governor Zhu seems to be afraid that you don't know that General Yu is dissatisfied. He is also afraid that General Yu will not know that General Yu deliberately did not come to visit him."  "Well, my subordinates feel that Governor Zhu seems to be willing to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers." "Yes, I think so too." Huang Shi said to his military police leader with a smile at that time: "That's why I want to echo him and say a few words to General Yu."  " Huang Shi also deliberately explained what he said when he said goodbye to Mr. Zhu Yifeng today.After listening to Zhu Yifeng's advice last time, I thought about it again and again and felt that what Master Zhu said was very reasonable. Colleagues should still put harmony first, so I took the initiative to visit Yu Zigao in accordance with Master Zhu's teachings.  After Huang Shi's invitation was handed in, the deputy general's mansion opened to the south of the central gate. Deputy general Yu Zigao rushed out and saluted Huang Shi: "I didn't know that when Marshal Huang came, he didn't come far to welcome him. It's a sin. It's a sin."  Old General Yu is too polite and I don't dare to take it seriously." Huang Shi returned the courtesy and waited for Yu Zigao to invite him in.  Huang Shi also gave in.  You must enter the middle gate side by side with Yu Zigao.  After entering the deputy general's residence, Huang Shi saw a large number of Xiamen military attach¨¦s waiting for him in the middle hall.  As Huang Shi estimated, most of the military attach¨¦s from Xiamen came to Yu Zigao's house early today to pay New Year's greetings.  Huang Shi had already made up his mind that he would rush to Xiamen to pay Yu Zigao New Year greetings on the first day of the year. Of course, before coming to Yu Zigao, he must first visit Zhu Yifeng. So Huang Shi left in a hurry yesterday.  Neither had a good time.  After entering the middle hall, Huang Shi stood up in front of all the military attaches in Xiamen.  He handed the bag of pig's trotters to Yu Zigao with both hands: "Happy New Year, Old General Yu." Yu Zigao took Huangshi's pig's trotters with a red face, happily carried the bag to the living room and handed it over  The underground people around me.  After all, Yu Zigao is now the deputy general of Funing Town. In terms of status, he is still a subordinate of Huangshi. If he wants to pay New Year's greetings, he should go to Huangshi instead of the other way around.  And Huang Shi rushed to Yu Mansion on the first day of the new year like a small character.  This already made Yu Zigao feel very proud.  Yu Zigao became even happier when he saw the gift handed over by Huang Shi himself.  Xiamen people like to eat pig's trotters. When the younger generation goes to visit their elders during the holidays, they often bring a bag of pig's trotters.  Huang Shi acted like a junior this time.  This scene made Hong Antong, who was behind Huangshi, dumbfounded. He had always felt that Huangshi's gift was nondescript and was somewhat difficult to handle. Seeing Yu Zigao, he was very happy. From then on, Hong Antong could only admire his superior, "a wise man can do anything."  Although Huang Shi insisted that today¡¯s ranking should be based on seniority, all the generals in Xiamen disagreed.  In the end, Huang Shi took a step back and agreed with Yu Zigao to call him Huang Shuai, but the word "big" must be omitted.  We walked in and tasted some sweet and salty rice cakes. Before the sun set, the Yu Mansion held a banquet. At the banquet, Old General Yu and Huang Shi naturally sat at the same table, and each table also served a dish of "sea cucumber stewed pig's trotters".  Although people from other parts of China also like this food, few people like it as much as Xiamen people.  Many of the generals who came to visit General Yu today brought pig trotters to the chef to make this dish for everyone.  The pig's trotters brought by Huangshi are naturally among them.  When he was about to finish the dish, General Yu suddenly felt that something was wrong.  Huang Shi gave himself a good face, but he didn't remind the chef just now. It would be too disrespectful to the commander to confuse him with his subordinates.  After thinking of this, Old General Yu's heart tightened and he shuddered, wanting to explain that it was an honest mistake so as not to cause any unpleasantness.  However, Huang Shi didn't seem to mind at all. Before Yu Zigao could say anything, Huang Shi took away the last piece of pig's trotters and smiled at everyone: "Old General Yu's cook is really good at his craftsmanship. I will grab the last piece regardless of his face."  Everyone laughed and Yu Zigao also laughed and said: "Huang Shuai made fun of me." "I ate so much today, I don't know which brother has been wronged. Fortunately, I also brought a bag of pig's trotters when I came.  It would be really unsettling if I had to do my best." Huang Shi said as he ate the pig's trotters cleanly, still showing that he was still unsatisfied.  "Huang Shuai doesn't know what I'm doing. This cook is a little famous in Xiamen, so he invited him to come to my house" Yu Zigao felt even more proud when he saw Huang Shi's dazed look.  After bragging about the arrival of his cook, as for apologizing, Yu Zigao felt that Huang Shi didn't care about him at all anyway, so why bother adding trouble?  So I will skip it.  The dishes were still being served. After Huangshi had a few drinks, he asked Yu Zigao about his recovery of Penghu. This was the most proud thing in Yu Zigao's life.  In order to monopolize the sea trade from Quanzhou to Manila, the Dutch landed on the Penghu Islands and built forts in an attempt to force Fujian merchants to trade with them, and then let them trade with the Spanish.  Since the Dutch took control of the Penghu Islands, the risks of maritime trade for Fujian merchants have increased.  At first, the Dutch set up checkpoints along the coast or forcibly collected taxes from Fujian merchants who went to Manila to trade on their own, or instigated some Dutch pirates to rob around Penghu, causing considerable losses to Ming merchants.  The Fujian authorities originally advocated a peaceful settlement of the matter and therefore negotiated with the Dutch several times. However, the opinions of the two sides were too different. In the end, the Dutch East India Company advocated using force to coerce the Fujian region to recognize their status, which intensified piracy based on Penghu.  Attack Zhangzhou Yuegang with force. ??Yu Zigao advocated the suppression of the Ming Dynasty and thought about how the Ming Dynasty should treat Japanese pirates during the Qi Jiguang period.  How the Dutch should be treated today.  after negotiations broke down.  Yu Zigao was ordered to command tens of thousands of Fujian naval forces to fight the Dutch.  After three years of hard struggle, Yu Zigao recovered most of the Penghu Islands. The Dutch also accepted the conditions of the governor of Fujian and pledged never to return to the Penghu Islands.  Recalling the hard work he fought back then and the wonderful fruits of victory now, Yu Zigao became more and more excited as he talked about it.  After Old General Yu opened his chat box, he could never close it again. His gray beard twitched and his eyebrows danced up and down as the story progressed, making Yu Zigao not even think about eating.  "I have eliminated a great harm to the country. It is enough to prevent the peace of Fujian Province for a hundred years." Yu Zigao laughed for a while and saw another plate of dishes being served. He immediately picked up the chopsticks and picked up the fish head for Huang Shi: "Huang Shi  "Shuai please, please, this is the custom of us Fujian people. The fattest fish head must be given to the guests." In the evening, Huang Shi left Yu Mansion to stay at the Xiamen Government Office to say goodbye. After walking for a while, Huang Shi looked up to the sky and sighed: "  This way I will have no worries.¡±¡­ It¡¯s the first month of the seventh year of Tianqi.  Mao Wenlong, the commander-in-chief of Dongjiang, concluded that Hou Jin's attack on Kuandian was imminent, so he decided to attack Zhenjiang preemptively, which would not only reduce the pressure on Kuandian, but also take the opportunity to collect some food for the winter.  At the same time, I was in Liaoyang.  The Hou Jin regime ordered all people over the age of 16 to join the army from the Eight Banners of Manchuria and the left and right wings of Mongolia.  Han Chinese who are willing to join the army can also be relieved of their status as serfs and granted private land. If they can achieve military exploits, they can even get official positions.  This time, Huang Taiji recruited nearly 30,000 armored and more than 50,000 unarmored auxiliary troops in one fell swoop, forming an astonishing 80,000-strong army. This was also the largest military gathering since the birth of the Hou Jin regime.  "The unprecedentedly powerful force will definitely surprise Mao Wenlong." Mang Gurtai stood at the top of the city.  Looking at the large number of troops filing out of the Liaoyang City Gate, the thirty thousand former troops had already arrived in Phoenix City.  But the rear army has not yet finished leaving Liaoyang.  Today, Mang Gurtai will lead the last batch of troops out of Huang Taiji, who is preparing to carry out the empty city strategy, to see him off.  After hearing Mang Gurtai's emotion, Huang Taiji smiled and said: "Such a good opportunity comes once in a lifetime. Even if the Dongjiang Army cannot be eliminated once and for all, Mao Wenlong will not be able to recover within a year." Although Mang Gurtai knew that Huang Taiji was not very good,  He may have changed his mind, but he still asked one last time with concern: "Are you really not even keeping any guards?" "If you don't keep Ye Changmengduo, we will defeat Mao Wenlong as quickly as possible. Besides, if Liaoxi really dares to send troops,  What can I do if I leave a team of white-armored guards? " Huang Taiji and the other three Baylors have discussed this issue many times. Every time the Hou Jin army stays outside Liaozhong for more than a month, Mao Wenlong will definitely come.  To cause trouble, Hou Jin had no time to dismantle the strategic encirclement network in other directions.  But if we attack Mao Wenlong, Mongolia and Liaoxi will pose a fatal threat to Hou Jin. After that, the main force of the Jin army was restrained by the strategic encirclement network.  If you want to disintegrate Mongolia and Liaoxi, you must first defeat Mao Wenlong. If you want to defeat Mao Wenlong, you must first disintegrate Mongolia and Liaoxi This is originally an endless cycle that cannot be solved from the inside.  "This opportunity is so rare that we must devote all our strength without hesitation." Huang Taiji looked at Mang Gurtai who still had a worried look on his face and smiled easily: "Fifth brother, just don't worry.  There is no problem in deceiving Yuan Chonghuan for the first half of the year. The only problem is that you must fight for the food and grass. " "Four months of food and grass should be enough. We can also collect some in North Korea. What I am worried about is not this but what will happen in the second half of this year.  In order to collect the certified military rations, Huang Taiji not only plundered the reserves of the Eight Banners of Manchuria and the Mongolian left and right wings, but also swore to the Han people under his rule that as long as they handed over a bushel of rice, they would be exempted from all taxes and labor this year.  .  Some Han people did not believe a word of what Huang Taiji said, but others were suspicious and took out the stolen grain from the cache and took away the guarantee that the Hou Jin regime would be exempted from taxes this year.  This time when Huang Taiji won the vote, the other three Baylors all chose to support him because they all knew that this was the only chance to get out of the military predicament.  But if Huang Taiji really fulfills his promise, not only the Eight Banners will lose tens of thousands of coats.  Moreover, this year¡¯s grain tax will be reduced by half.  Although we can only take one step at a time.  However, Mang Gurtai is also full of worries about the future. If there is no food to eat in winter, he will have to take action on the Han people.  Everyone knows that it is only a matter of time that the people under your rule will be destroyed sooner or later. However, knowing that this glass of wine is poisonous, you have no choice but to drink it at that time.  "Fifth brother, don't worry, I have a solution." Huang Taiji smiled enigmatically and drove away Mang Gurtai, who was full of doubts. ?¡­ ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?In March, Amin led 30,000 former troops from Phoenix City to pretend to attack Kuandian.  After learning that Mongolia could not come for reinforcements, Mao Wenlong commanded the Dongjiang headquarters to attack Zhenjiang in an attempt to take some of the pressure off Chen Jisheng.  After successfully luring the snake out of the cave, Amin bypassed Mao Wenlong's headquarters and attacked North Korea's Yiju. Jinnai should open the city gate to welcome Amin into the city. Over 10,000 Dongjiang refugees were killed in Yiju and its vicinity. Mao Wenlong retreated to Dongjiang Island by sea in a hurry and ordered Tieshan  The nearby second-line troops of the Dongjiang Army were mobilized urgently. ?¡­ ?The end of the first month of the seventh year of Tianqi.  After receiving the urgent report from Mao Wenlong, the Ming court urgently asked the governor of Liaodong where he planned to go?  Yuan Chonghuan told the court: There is no need to panic. As long as he sends an envoy with a handwritten letter from Yuan Chonghuan, he can order Huang Taiji to withdraw his troops!     Unlucky.  Although Yuan Chonghuan gave the order, Huang Taiji refused to retreat without any appreciation.  In the middle of the first month of the first lunar month, Jin defeated Yiju and 80,000 troops rolled into North Korea. Amin, Mang Gurtai, Jierhalang and others immediately divided their troops into two groups. Among them, 50,000 troops were directed at Tieshan, the important material warehouse of the Dongjiang Army.  It was captured in February.  Dongjiang's pitiful reserves also fell into the enemy's hands.  After Tieshan's supplies were lost, the Dongjiang headquarters almost fell into a situation where mobility was immobilized. Chen Jisheng hurriedly commanded the right assistant to go down the mountain and launched desperate suicide attacks on the supply lines of the Hou Jin Army in an attempt to contain some pressure on the headquarters.  At present, the Zuo Xie is still in a chaotic period of consolidation and has no offensive capabilities for a while. Mao Wenlong hurriedly ordered Zhang Pan to transport the Zuo Xie's stored grain to the headquarters and at the same time asked the court for help again.  It is hoped that the Ming Army in western Liaoning can be dispatched to win some breathing space for the Dongjiang Army.  The Ming court once again urgently ordered Yuan Chonghuan to send troops to attack the central plains of Liaoning. Yuan Chonghuan wrote a letter to protest: "Shuai Mao meets with ice every winter. He avoids the islands and the world knows them. The people left behind in Iron Mountain are old, weak and beautiful!" In short, Yuan Chonghuan believed:  The Korean war situation was not at all critical. Mao Wenlong still had a lot of spare power that he had not used, so he did not send troops at all.  At the end of February of the seventh year of Tianqi, the capital cabinet read to Tianqi the latest memorial from the governor of Liaodong. Yuan Chonghuan said that he had "already known" Hou Jin's plan to attack North Korea. The reason why he said last time that Hou Jin's target was western Liaoning and not North Korea was not because he, Yuan Chonghuan, was unaware of it.  Because he wanted to take the opportunity to build the castle, Yuan Chonghuan also proposed a grand city-building plan, which was to build the castle step by step, "and do it step by step in Jinyi, Guangning, and Liaoshen." As long as he could build it all the way to the nose of Huang Taiji  Without being interrupted, "it will take four years to win." "Nonsense!" Tianqi jumped up from the throne and stood up, his arms trembling with anger: "Rescuing troops is like putting out fire. What I said is rescuing troops, not cultivating troops."  City! The current problem is not something that will happen in four years." "Your Majesty, please calm down." Gu Bingqian and others thanked each other and then said hesitantly, "Your Majesty, let the governor of Liaodong do things easily if you don't have any doubts."  Although I don't know how to fight, the governor of Liaodong must be doing something wrong." Tianqi had already recovered from his anger. He took a deep breath and said loudly: "Oral instructions to the governor of Liaodong: "It is not in my interest if North Korea does not retreat and invade.  "and then sent the order to the governor of Liaodong; "order Guan Ning's troops to attack the tiger's den" to relieve Commander Mao's difficulties. "" In early March of the sixth year of Tianqi, the governor of Liaodong, Yuan Chonghuan, resisted for the third time.  The imperial memorial stated that he was not unaware that the Hou Jin army was attacking North Korea with a force of 100,000. This time, Yuan Chonghuan also admitted that this force was probably not strong enough for Mao Wenlong to resist. However, Yuan Chonghuan argued that he had guessed, heard, and estimated that the Hou Jin army actually only had 200,000 troops because of Huang Taiji.  Since he dares to stay in Liaoyang by himself, he must be commanding an army of 100,000 and waiting for work.  Since Huang Taiji left an army that was not inferior to Guan Ning's army and he, Yuan Chonghuan, was aware of the enemy's treacherous plot, Yuan Chonghuan believed that he must never attack Liaozhong.  "I heard that hundreds of thousands of slave soldiers plundered and defended hundreds of thousands of people. Why do you think that the barbarians' caves are empty after seeing it? I will attack them with all my strength. Regardless of whether the hanging army can't penetrate deep enough to ridicule the barbarians who are waiting for it?  ¡­¡± Tianqi in the Jinluan Palace shook his head and murmured: ¡°This is wrong. Although I have never fought in a war, this is definitely wrong.¡±  " Gu Bingqian said impatiently before he finished reading Tianqi: "What is the plan of the governor of Liaodong to pick the important one?  " "The governor of Liaodong returned to the Holy Land and said that he was building three castles at Dalinghe, Xiaolinghe and Xingshan.  "Gu Bingqian no longer dared to say a good word for Yuan Chonghuan. He kept talking about "what the governor of Liaodong said, what the governor of Liaodong said." Anyway, it was not Gu Fu's responsibility. Gu Bingqian turned over Yuan Chonghuan's memorial and read it to the emperor in a low voice: "  The governor of Liaodong said: "If the city is not completed and the enemy comes, we will inevitably retreat, or we will succeed if we abandon Chui!"  ¡¯ The governor of Liaodong thought that he should not provoke Jiannu to avoid being beaten.  " "Don't provoke Jiannu.  Wouldn¡¯t Jiannu come and fight?  Tianqi shook his head with a tired look on his face: "I don't want to argue with the governor of Liaodong anymore, but he can't resist the decree."  Give him another order and ask him to send troops immediately.  "Follow the decree."   ¡­ In mid-March of the seventh year of Tianqi, under repeated orders from the court, Yuan Chonghuan sent 500 sailors to support Mao Wenlong and then ordered Zhao to lead 9,000 troops out of Daling River and send troops to Sancha River, a hundred miles away.  Prepare to take a pontoon bridge to cross the river.  At the end of March, after the main force of the Hou Jin Army penetrated deep into the hinterland of North Korea, the Dongjiang Army began to counterattack the Hou Jin Army. The Ming Army and the Hou Jin Army started a fierce battle in the Tieshan area. The Guan Ning Army had not yet built a pontoon bridge.  In early April, the Dongjiang Army recaptured Tieshan and Guanning Army had not yet built the pontoon bridge.  On April 11, Mao Wenlong's Dongjiang Army launched a fierce battle with Hou Jin's Army in Pingshan.  This was a great victory for the Ming army, plus the Baoyi, Han and other prefecture-level armies.  After killing more than 1,000 levels in total, the Jin army decided to retreat after inspecting more than 500 Hou Jin armored soldiers in Leiden Town.  At this time, Guan Ning's army had not yet built the pontoon On April 15, Dongjiang Army regained Changcheng. Guan Ning's army also On April 18, after a fierce battle between Dongjiang Army and Hou Jin Army in the Yalu River, Jin Army began to retreat from North Korea to Guan Ning.  The army At the end of April, Yuan Chonghuan ordered Guan Ning's army to leave. When they left, the pontoon bridge was still not ready.   On the fifth day of the fifth month of the seventh year of the Apocalypse, the capital "The arrangement of the Liao to support Xian was extremely impressive. The officers and soldiers stopped looking at the river and they were really soldiers on paper. Can the Liao soldiers be used?" Gu Bingqian finished reading the impeachment memorial of the king in Jin and looked up secretly.  The cabinet members who glanced at Emperor Tianqi and tightened his mouth knew that this expression meant that the emperor was in a bad mood, so no one was willing to come forward to cause trouble.  "Mr. Gu Ge, what do you think?" Although Tianqi's voice was as kind as usual, Gu Bingqian's heart twitched hard when he heard this question. Although he kept shouting in his heart, "It's unfair, what do I do with this?" But the emperor  But he had to answer the question. Gu Bingqian quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead without attracting attention: "Go back to the Holy Spirit, old minister, and listen to the Governor of Liaodong" "I don't want to listen to the Governor of Liaodong, I want to hear you say that you are not mine.  Yuan Fu? I want to hear what you have to say!" "Your Majesty, please forgive me." Gu Bingqian jumped up from his chair and knelt on the ground with an agility that was incompatible with his age.  Behind Tianqi, Wei Zhongxian's sleeves were drooped, as if he was staring at the toes of his boots, his eyes completely untouched by the cabinet ministers.  The other two pavilion elders also looked at the tip of their noses with expressionless faces and turned a deaf ear to the sounds around them.  Tianqi held the armrests of the throne with both hands and leaned forward slightly to comfort Gu Bingqian and said softly: "I just want to hear what you think, Mr. Ge? What sin do you have to apologize for, Mr. Ge?" "Your Majesty, forgive me." "  Mr. Ge, please speak up. You are my Yuanfu. ""Forgive me, Your Majesty." "Forget it." Tianqi suddenly shouted coldly and leaned back heavily: "Mr. Ge, just tell me what the governor of Liaodong said.  "Is that right?" "I obey the order," Gu Bingqian replied calmly and forcefully. Rumeng knelt straight and said, "The governor of Liaodong said: 'The three cities have been defended and the gold soup is strong again. 'This time!"  If we successfully build the three cities by taking advantage of the lack of gold, Liaoxi should have no worries." At this time, Tian Qi rested his right elbow on the armrest of the throne and held his forehead with his hand as he asked absently: "The three cities of Daling River.  "Are you sure it's been repaired?" "The governor of Liaodong said it's been repaired." "Well, at the end of last month, Marshal Mao came to report urgently that he had heard that on the sixth day of the fifth month of the lunar month, he would attack Liaoxi again. Marshal Mao said that he was in dire straits.  The capital of Liaodong has already taken precautions. I just want to know if Dalinghe, Xiaolinghe and Xingshan have been repaired. Will there be any problems in western Liaoning? ""The Holy Governor of Liaodong said: "If Mrs. Hong doesn't come, she will."  "Captured by the minister." Tianqi sneered lazily: "The governor of Liaodong said Is the city repaired or not? Is there any problem with the defense of western Liaoning? What does my Yuanfu say?  "Your Majesty, forgive me." "Not guilty, not guilty." Tianqi shouted impatiently and then stood up. Just then, a deep feeling of disgust filled the young emperor's chest.  Almost suffocated.  Tianqi, who felt slightly better after standing up and taking a breath, lowered his head again and saw the three elders in front of him. Suddenly, the feeling came over him like a tide, causing Tianqi to stagger at his feet.  He decided to go to carpentry work to get some fresh air: "I have a very painful headache. Your cabinet and the Supervisor of Ceremonies can discuss this matter. Don't bother me. No matter what you want to do, I agree and will do it!" ¡­ April 10th  On May 6th, the ink was not dry on the contract with North Korea, which was exactly the same day as Mao Wenlong's memorial predicted. Emperor Taiji led the Four Banners soldiers and horses who had just returned to Liaozhong to set out.  In addition to the 10,000 armored men from the Four Banners, Huang Taiji also mobilized 20,000 Baoyi and Banners, asking each of them to push a cart of four to carry grain in western Liaoning.  "Fifth brother, youDo you know how I solve the problem of food?  "Huang Taiji rode on his horse and smiled at the people around him. After Mang Gurtai's rear army returned to Liaoyang, Huang Taiji immediately moved out with the whole brigade, "Are you moving to western Liaoning?  "Haha, I have already found out clearly that Yuan Chonghuan has just repaired the Daling River and other three cities, brought in a large amount of food, and stationed tens of thousands of Guanning troops."  In addition, Yuan Chonghuan also established thousands of military camps in western Liaoning and resettled dozens of military men and women.  Not only can we move the grain back, but we can also capture hundreds of thousands of Ming troops and come back to farm the fields. Look at the grain we exempted this year and the coating we released, aren't they all coming back?  Ha ha.  "" In early May of the seventh year of the Apocalypse, Ouyang Xin of Jiuxiapu solemnly put on his helmet with a five-inch red tassel on his head and walked out of the tent in the temporary camp. The fire-fighting battalion engineering team lined up neatly, and the big fire behind them suddenly appeared in front of them.  The huge ship on the sea was slowly rising and falling. Ouyang Xin glanced at the feather forest with extremely jealous eyes, took a deep breath and shouted with all his strength: "Send troops and our engineering team must be the first to enter!"  "
