Ming Dynasty: Starting from Liaodong Jiangmen

Chapter 80 I Killed You
On the way back to the country, Huang Taiji held the horse's rein with one hand and looked back from time to time.

Behind him, a large and energetic team was marching neatly.

In this battle, hundreds of thousands of people in Jifu, Ming Dynasty, were plundered. Food, weapons, supplies, war horses and other materials were continuously transported to the country in a steady stream. A few days later, Jieling Pass was still busy with traffic, and Ladu Endless pulling.

For Hou Jin, this was a lot of money.

Huang Taiji initially opposed the idea of ​​entering the fortress this time. Many Baylor ministers in the country were not optimistic about it, thinking that the Ming Dynasty's skinny camels were bigger than horses, not to mention that there were 10,000+ elite Liao troops in Liaodong.

Once Yuan Chonghuan did not choose to return to the capital, but instead, like Huang Taiji, led all the elite Guanning troops to attack Shengjing, the remaining forces in Shengjing would not be enough to defend the city and palace.

But Huang Taiji once again used facts to silence those who opposed him.

Huang Taiji and Yuan Chonghuan are old rivals.

He boasted that he knew Yuan Chonghuan very well. He knew that once he learned the news that he had entered the fortress, Yuan Chonghuan would have two choices.

One is what those Baylor ministers were afraid of. Yuan Chonghuan made a desperate move and chose to encircle Wei and save Zhao. Not only did he not return to King Qin of Beijing, but he chose to personally lead all the elite Guanning troops to raid Shengjing.

If that is the case, Huang Taiji will have only one choice, to withdraw from Mongolia immediately.

The current Houjin Dynasty is no longer the time to build a city based on people in the Nurhaci era a few decades ago. Many Baylor ministers and Houjin generals have settled their families in various places in Shengjing, and enclosed the land and allocated farms, which means they have fetters. .

If Huang Taiji still stubbornly goes to attack Beijing, the other three co-rulers Beile Amin, Daishan and Mang Gurtai will not agree.

But as mentioned before, Huang Taiji not only knew Yuan Chonghuan very well, he also knew the constraints of the monarchs and ministers of the Ming Dynasty very well. He was almost certain that Yuan Chonghuan would definitely lead the main force of the Liao army back to King Qin in Beijing.

Because Yuan Chonghuan could not withstand the pressure placed on him within the customs.

This time, Huang Taiji made the right bet.

Riding on the horse, Huang Taiji's face was filled with pride and a smile.

This time, it was a complete victory for him.

During the battle at the Pass, the remaining three Baylor troops suffered varying degrees of losses. Among them, Amin's Xianglan Banner, who was least able to deal with him, suffered devastating blows in Yongdingmen, Luanhe and other places.

After entering the customs this time, Huang Taiji gained both fame and fortune.

He had already planned in his mind that when he returned to Shengjing, he would immediately start to annex Amin's blue flag.

In fact, he has already thought about the candidate to take over.

Amin is the nephew of Destiny Khan Nurhachi and the son of his younger brother Shuerhaqi. The current small banner owner of Xianglan Banner who stays in Shengjing is Amin's younger brother Jierhalang.

Although Ji'erharang and Amin are brothers, he behaves honestly and is in a neutral position in the situation where the four Baylors are co-governing. By taking the blue flag from Amin and handing it to him, Huang Taiji is equivalent to Shao a threat.

Huang Taiji was secretly happy in his heart when he thought that the four major powers co-ruling Baylor would soon become the three major ones co-ruling Baylor.

From now on, he will reduce the number of seats that co-govern Baylor one by one until there is only one left, and that is him, Tiancong Khan Huang Taiji of Daijin!

In the entire Daikin, there can only be one person who has the final say from now on!
Just as he was thinking of this, a horse rushed back from the rear of the team.

"Thank you, Great Khan, three Baylor, four Baylor!"

"I just got the news that Amin has withdrawn from the pass from Xifengkou!"

Huang Taiji was not surprised by this. Huang Taiji had already expected that Amin would escape before the battle.

Although Amin was able to take the main force of the Xianglan Banner back to the pass with this move, he could not escape the charge of abandoning the land and fearing the enemy. Huang Taiji had justifiable reasons to punish Amin and deprive him of the Xianglan Banner. flag.

"I know, how did Amin come back?"

Huang Taiji seemed to be asking questions knowingly and wanted to embarrass Amin in front of everyone.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Dorgon who was following him laughed loudly and said: "Amin must have abandoned the hundreds of thousands of people who had joined me in the city and fled with the blue flag between his legs. came back."

Duduo quickly guessed what he meant and joined the fire.

"Hmph! Such a cowardly thing has brought shame to my Golden Warrior!" "When Amin comes back, we must punish him severely!"

Huang Taiji smiled slightly, this was exactly the situation he was happy to see.

But soon, the sentry rider's words surprised everyone present.

"Back to the Great Khan, Erbeile left the pass with the food and supplies in the city!"

"What, he brought supplies?" Mang Gurtai was a little surprised. He could actually see Huang Taiji's tricks, but he could only be anxious and had no way to deal with Amin's situation.

Hearing that Amin actually came back with supplies, I was a little surprised for a while.

Fourth Beile, Mang Gurtai, although they both co-ruled Beile, his status was far inferior to the other three. However, the reason for his discord with Huang Taiji was not because of Amin.

This goes back to earlier years.

Huang Taiji was actually Nurhachi's bastard, born to Meng Guzhezhe.

Mang Gurtai's mother is Dafu Jin Gundai. He, his sister Mang Guji, and his younger brother Degele are full siblings of the same father and mother, and are the legitimate sons of Tianming Khan Nurhaci.

In terms of status, the status of the three Mang Gurtai brothers is higher than that of Huang Taiji.

When Nurhaci died suddenly, Mang Gurtai's successor was superior to Huang Taiji, and he also had many supporters in the Hou Jin Dynasty.

In other words, even if the person who should succeed is not people like Chu Ying and Daishan, in the end it will be Mang Gurtai, far less than Huang Taiji.

Anyone whose rightful position is taken away by others will always complain in his heart. This is the case with Mang Gurtai. With the Zhenglan Banner Soldier in his hand, he and Huang Taiji often fought against each other in the past.

Mang Gurtai knew that confrontation with Huang Taiji was a long-term solution, so he deliberately got close to Amin and Daishan, which was a threat to Huang Taiji.

"Amin abandoned the land and fell into the city. It was the land that my brave warrior Dajin fought for with his blood and sweat. Just let him return it to the Ming army like this. Even if he brought food, grass and baggage, what's there to be happy about?"

Huang Taiji also didn't expect that Amin would have the ability to bring food and grass out of seclusion.

However, this alone is not enough to completely free Amin from guilt.

Huang Taiji was determined to win Amin's blue flag this time.

Mang Gurtai was already quite dissatisfied with the battle at Yongding Gate. Huang Taiji brought his Zhengbai flag to the front, leaving his Zhenglan flag to take the lead. Hearing this, he was not used to his prodigy at all.

"What's wrong with Amin coming back and disturbing your eyes?"

"In my opinion, you really want Amin to die in the pass so that you can annex his blue flag, right?"

"Amin's blue flag suffered heavy losses this time when he entered the customs. Is this exactly what you wanted?"

Mang Gurtai is the legitimate son of Nurhaci, his sister is Princess Hada, and his brothers Degelei and Feiyanggu are both small banner masters of the Zhenglan Banner. They are extremely loyal to him and have strong soldiers and horses under his command, so they always speak so straightforwardly.

Huang Taiji sneered, but he wasn't angry at all.

He naturally knows how to deal with Amin and Mang Gurtai.

Huang Taiji rode his horse, shook his head and said: "It's better if you don't tell me. As soon as you say it, I will remember it. In the battle of Yongdingmen, Zhenglan Banner was as afraid of the Ming army as a tiger. I sent you to lead the battle. What about you?" , hit and ran away."

"I think the entire blame for the failure of the Yongding Gate battle lies with Zhenglan Banner. Weak soldiers like you are really an embarrassment to the Golden Warriors!"

When Mang Gurtai heard this, he was immediately furious.

In the battle of Yongding Gate, Mang Gurtai personally led the troops to attack the city, so he naturally knew the bravery of his troops.

"Huang Taiji! I'll kill you!"

When Mang Gurtai disagreed, he drew his sword with his backhand, drove his horse forward, and was about to kill Huang Taiji directly.
