Chapter 97
Looking at Azige standing in front of him, Huang Taiji felt an indescribable sense of relief.

There was a teapot and several teacups on the table, and he poured himself a cup of tea.

Taking a sip, he let out a long breath.

For the bitterly cold Liaodong, tea is essential.

Liaodong does not produce tea, and these teas are basically sold by Shanxi merchants.

Azig quickly finished reading the contents of the military newspaper, and returned the general newspaper to the eunuch again.

The excitement on his face increased a little.

"If, if the content above is true, maybe becoming the master of the Central Plains is no longer an illusory dream!"

Azig's face became a little more fanatical.

Entering the Central Plains has almost become an obsession in their hearts for people like them.

The prosperous Jiangnan water town has only been taught in books before.

If these things that Bao Chengxian said in the military newspaper come true, those sweet dreams that he dreamed back in the middle of the night will emerge one by one.

"This matter is of great importance. Compared with the conquest of Khalkha, it is inferior!"

Huang Taiji was holding a wine glass, her face was full of solemnity.

How can the Khalkha tribe compare with the lush Ming Dynasty?

Besides, Khalkha had been subdued before. Although he killed Huang Taiji's envoy this time, he did not directly raise the flag of rebellion.

There is room for maneuver in everything, there is no need to rush this moment.

The beautiful country in the south, this is the most important thing.

If an exchange had to be made, in Huang Taiji's heart, ten Khalkhas were not as good as one Ming.

"What do you mean, lord?"

Azige looked at Huang Taiji and seemed to understand what he meant.

"This matter is of great importance, and I must go back to sit in charge. As for teaching Khalkha, I will leave it to you.

I will take away the two yellow flags, most of the white flags, and leave most of the inlaid white flags to you.

You lead most of the Bordered White Banners. After entering Khalkha, don't underestimate the enemy, and don't act casually.

When the time comes, play by ear, if they are clearly plotting against you, don't be too anxious, just drag them and wait for me to finish Daming's affairs.I will come over and clean them up when the time comes! "

Huang Taiji gave orders in an orderly manner.

The two yellow flags are the Zhenghuang flag and the bordered yellow flag. This is the foundation of Huang Taiji, and he himself is the owner of the two flags.

The Two Yellow Banners are also the most powerful among the Eight Banners. Compared with the other banners, they have an almost overwhelming advantage.

Apart from Huang Taiji, the most powerful ones are the Xiangbai Banner and Zhengbai Banner of the brothers Dorgon and Duoduo.

These two people and Huang Taiji have always been at odds with each other, the matter of the last edict back then was so treacherous, and to this day, they don't know what the truth is.

In addition, Huang Taiji forced the death of Dorgon and Duoduo's mother Abahai, which made the rift between the two parties even bigger.

In the tenth year of Chongzhen, Huang Taiji wanted to better control the two white flags, so he used the excuse of rectifying the flag affairs to mess up the two white flags and mix them up.

Dorgon, the owner of the Xiangbai Banner, was changed to be the owner of the Zhengbai Banner, Duoduo, the owner of the Zhengbai Banner, was changed to be the owner of the Xiangbai Banner, and Azige was appointed as the owner of the Small Banner of the Xiangbai Banner.

Azige is the flag that Huang Taiji extended into the two white flags.

During the attack on Khalkha this time, Huang Taiji took out almost all of Xiangbai Banner's troops and a considerable part of Zhengbai Banner's troops.

The main purpose is to further weaken the forces in the hands of the Dorgon and Duoduo brothers.

As for his two yellow flags, although he went there with him, there is a high probability that they were soy sauce.

"twitter!"

Azige performed a thousand salutations again, and took Huang Taiji's order.

……

The army turned around and headed towards Shengjing City.

With Huang Taiji's obese body, the war horse under his crotch was a bit strenuous.

Shengjing City is ahead, Huang Taiji smiled.

The sun turned and the moon climbed into the night sky.

The study room was full of princes and nobles.

Bao Chengxian's military newspaper had already spread to everyone, and the atmosphere in the room seemed relaxed.

But some people looked worried and felt that this matter was fraudulent.

"Everyone, have you read all the military newspapers that Bao Chengxian sent back? Do you have any ideas!"

Sitting on the throne, Huang Taiji looked around and asked.

A fat face squeezed like a chrysanthemum, and the smile never disappeared.

Fan Wencheng, his confidant, stood up first and knelt on the ground with a plop.

As always, a few loud asses are customary.

Huang Taiji was naturally in a happy mood, who wouldn't like to hear flattery?

After talking for nearly a quarter of an hour, it was time to get down to business.

"Your Majesty, if things can really work out this time, then it will no longer be a vain thing for me to rule the Central Plains in the Qing Dynasty.

There is an irreconcilable conflict between this Sun Jie and the Ming court, we must take him down!
A Bao Chengxian may not be able to show the sincerity of my Qing Dynasty, why not send someone with a high position to go there again! "

Fan Wencheng's words touched Huang Taiji's heart.

This was exactly what he had in mind.

Otherwise, how can we say that Fan Wencheng is the most loyal dog leg?Just this ability to figure out people's hearts is not comparable to others.

Daishan still despised Fan Wencheng as always, and said with a sneer, "Send someone with high authority over there? How about sending you over there.

Your ability is obvious to all, and you will definitely be able to take him down after passing. "

After speaking, he looked at Huang Taiji again.

"This matter is very strange, Shaanxi is in the hinterland of Ming Dynasty, and my Qing Dynasty has almost no connection with Shaanxi.

The distance is too far, and there are thousands of mountains and rivers apart. If something happens, it will not be transmitted back in a while.

It is easy to say in the military newspaper, but how to do it?Success is fine, but failure?Not to mention wasting time in vain, it will kill our energy instead!
Furthermore, why should this Sun Jie believe in me, Qing Dynasty?I've never been in contact with us, so I'm afraid it's not a good thing to talk about it.

Even if you submit to us, why can we control it?Face and heart discord?Or, after the success, there is another heart? "

Speaking of this, he gave Fan Wencheng another hard look, and said coldly: "Han people, you can't believe the goods at both ends of the head rat!"

Fan Wencheng shrank his neck, feeling a little guilty.

Daishan is very scheming and not optimistic about this method.

Huang Taiji had thought of what he said before.

However, it was only a moment of hesitation.

He is different from Daishan, he is a bold person and a person who can seize any opportunity.

When he succeeded to the Khan throne, the situation changed and the current situation was treacherous. If he hadn't made a decisive attack, he might not be the one sitting on the throne now.

This approach is very risky, but the benefits are also great.

If it can be successfully implemented, it will allow them to enter the Central Plains for an unknown number of years in advance.

With this temptation in front of you, how can you let people give up?
This is small and big. If Sun Jie can surrender, it is better. If he can't, there is no loss.

Empty glove white wolf, a huge profit, always need the facts, after all, there is no cost.

As for rebellion in the future, let's wait until later.

"That's right, but if I've been timid all the time, why did my Qing Dynasty grow so strong?"

Huang Taiji was a little displeased.

Wenzhiwugong, founding the country and expanding the frontier.

Huang Taiji didn't just want to be the emperor of Liaodong, he also wanted to be the emperor of the whole world.

He has made up his mind, how can Daishan persuade him to move?

Not long after, a countermeasure was discussed.

Ning Wanwo was dispatched from Zhangjiakou to Shanxi via the Shanxi Merchants Road.

At the same time, the soldiers and horses in Liaodong were tightened, all the horses were explored, and Jinzhou was detained.

The night was dark, and the butterfly's wings began to flutter.

The flow of history has already deviated, and no one knows in which direction it will develop.

Jinzhou is the gateway to Shanhaiguan.

This is the bridgehead of Shanhaiguan, the place where the Ming army must defend, and the place where slaves must fight.

Located at the northernmost end of the Liaoxi Corridor, if you don't take it, don't even think about entering Beijing.

Before the Songjin War, Jiannu's plan to attack Beijing from the Liaoxi Corridor was tantamount to nonsense.

Although Jiannu repeatedly broke through the border walls and invaded the capital, it was not easy to expand the results of the war.

If there were no such as Li Zicheng in the original history, it would always be just a dream for Jiannu to take over the Central Plains.

At dawn, Zu Dashou, the commander-in-chief of the Liaodong vanguard and the general of the Liaodong vanguard, stood on the city wall.

His brows were tightly frowned, and the Jiannu who appeared and disappeared outside the city at times made him worry a lot.

Every time something like this happens, it means that Jianu has made another big move.

This time, there were so many Jian slaves visiting the horse outside the city, one didn't need to think about what it meant.

After a while, he walked down the wall.

Not long after, Babaili rushed towards the capital.

The war horse galloped on the official road outside the capital, not far from the capital.

In the afternoon, Chongzhen received the [-]-mile express from Zu Dashou.

Sitting in the middle of the imperial study, he looked at the military newspaper in his hand, his face was livid.

Since he ascended the throne, Jianu has become more and more restless.

There will be bandits every few years. This time, a large number of slaves have appeared outside Jinzhou City, and they don't need to think about it.

There are not many details on the [-]-mile express. These Ming troops stationed in Jinzhou City, how can they have the courage to go out to collect military information?

He was already afraid of being beaten by Jiannu.

In the fourth year of Chongzhen, Zu Dashou suffered a disastrous defeat in the Battle of Dalinghe.

If it wasn't for the fraudulent surrender and establishment of slavery, I'm afraid he would have died in battle long ago.

From then on, his attitude towards Jiannu changed abruptly.

I dare not say that fearing the enemy is like ghosts and gods, but it is not much different.

Chongzhen was a little flustered for a while, and after calming down, he hurriedly asked for the Chief Assistant of the Cabinet and Minister of the Ministry of War Yang Sichang to come over.

The chief assistant of the current cabinet is called Kong Zhenyun, a mediocre scholar who can't carry his shoulders or hands.

Not long after, the two stood in front of Chongzhen.

When the two of them saw the [-]-mile express handed down by Chongzhen, they had different reactions.

Kong Zhenyun's face was pale, as if he had lost all color.

This appearance made Chongzhen frowned involuntarily and was very dissatisfied.

This Kong Zhenyun was not very powerful in the first place. He just became the chief assistant of the cabinet in April this year. According to history, he will be dismissed in a few days.

"Kong Aiqing, why do you look like this? Are you afraid of being a slave? Is the court spending so much salary every year just to support idlers?"

Chongzhen's face was gloomy, and he couldn't even care about the emperor's dignity, so he scolded him.

Kong Zhenyun was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.

It's just a frail scholar, let him talk about the Four Books and Five Classics, but it's okay to discuss this kind of state affairs?What can it do?

"Get out, get out of here quickly!"

Chongzhen pointed out the window and scolded loudly.

Not surprisingly, he will lose the position of Chief Assistant of the Cabinet these days.

Kong Zhenyun felt relieved, and hurriedly retreated outside.

Chongzhen's eyes came back to Yang Sichang, and seeing the trusted minister in front of him, his complexion improved a lot.

"What do you think about this matter?!" Chongzhen asked.

Yang Sichang still had some skills, so after thinking about it for a while, he began to analyze it.

"Since the beginning of winter last year, there has been heavy snowfall in Liaodong. White disasters have arisen, food has been damaged, and countless livestock have died from freezing.

Liaodong was originally a bitter, cold and barren land, and it was greatly affected by this catastrophe.They will definitely go south to plunder, madly grabbing food, population and various supplies.

The imperial court must take strict precautions and let the guards of Liaodong defend Ningyuan, Jinzhou, and the land of mountains and seas.In the north of the capital, we must also take strict precautions.

Xuanzhen, Datong, and Jizhen must be strictly guarded to prevent Jiannu from bypassing Ningjin. "

Yang Sichang's voice rang out in the imperial study.

This is not groundless. In the second year of Chongzhen, Huang Taiji bypassed the entrance of Xifeng to break through.

After entering the customs many times, almost all of them bypassed the land of Ning Jin.

He went on to say: "Shanhaiguan guards and Ning Jin guards cannot be transferred. Now that the bandits in the territory are gradually subsiding, Hong Chengchou, Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng and other troops should be recruited to go north to prevent slavery from entering the bandits."

Chongzhen was a little worried, and said: "If all these people are transferred here, will those thieves take advantage of the opportunity to rise up?"

This is not the first time this has happened, it has happened from time to time in previous years.

Chongzhen wanted to wipe out all the thieves at once, and also wanted to block Jiannu.

There is something wrong with his mentality, and it is taboo for military strategists to fight on two fronts.

"Your Majesty, there are two different things. The bandits have gradually subsided now, so the imperial court does not need to pay too much attention to it.

The most urgent task is to prevent Jiannu first. "Yang Sichang persuaded.

……

A few days later, Chongzhen's order spread to Shaanxi.

Sun Chuanting was recruited to lead the troops to the north, and Hong Chengchou, who was stationed near Tongguan, was recruited to go north.

He didn't notice Sun Jie, but forgot about him.

It's not that Chongzhen forgot him on purpose, but that he didn't think about him at all.

Sun Jie's soldiers and horses were originally "anti-thieves". In Chongzhen's concept, they should be similar to those rogues.

The combat effectiveness of these people is worrying, and they are not opponents of the official army at all.

The official army is not the opponent of Jiannu. What is the use of transferring these people?

These people may need military pay or food, and if their combat effectiveness is not good, they will also spend money. No matter how you look at this business, it will not work.

Chongzhen is already poor and crazy, and he can spend less money if he can.

Sun Jie defeated Sun Chuanting, but Chongzhen didn't know about it.

Sun Chuanting would not let this matter reach Chongzhen's ears.

Besides, how could Yang Sichang allow Sun Jie to come over?
Not long after the matter of Prince Qin's mansion, Sun Jie is one of the insiders, if he comes here, what should he do if he talks nonsense?
Not to mention whether the money swallowed will be spit out, or whether it will survive.

Killing a prince in the current dynasty is a serious crime of beheading.

Even if Chongzhen had such a heart, Yang Sichang would "persuade".
