Reborn Ming Dynasty as Emperor

Chapter 106 The Confident Tartar

Since Zhu Youxiao appointed Wang Zaijin as the governor of Liaodong, he began to adopt the suggestion of Wang Xianggan, the governor of Jiliao, to abandon the area outside the pass and gather heavy troops to enrich the austerity strategy inside the pass.

This is contrary to Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan's strategy of building castles outside the pass, advancing step by step, preferably building a tight line of defense in Guanjin.

And it is equivalent to giving up all the territories outside the pass, so Wang Zaijin was impeached by many censors.

But Zhu Youxiao still insisted on letting Wang Zaijin supervise Liaodong. Zhu Youxiao knew that the so-called Guanjin line of defense would not be able to withstand Houjin's highly mobile cavalry, not to mention that Ming's strategic line of defense was so long. Can you guarantee that the Tartars of Houjin only come from Liaodong?

Moreover, Wang Zaijin's measures also saved Zhu Youxiao a lot of money and food. Although the famine in the Qin and Jin Dynasties is still intensifying, the court can temporarily use money and food to suppress it so that natural disasters do not cause human disasters. Of course, the food that was not robbed this time It has to be said that it was a huge loss, which made the eight years of Tianqi, which could have passed smoothly, have to face the danger of a large-scale army mutiny, peasant uprising and the entry of Tartars in the early Chongzhen period.

In fact, the reason why this kind of crisis still occurred when Zhu Youxiao was still the emperor was not that Wang Zaijin’s strategy was not good, but that this strategy itself violated the interests of the military landlord class in Liaodong, especially represented by the Guanning iron cavalry. .

Abandoning all the lands in Liaodong outside the customs is equivalent to letting them give up their own territory, greatly weakening their vested interests, and forcing Zu Dashou and others to collude with the Tartars to make things worse, so that the court blames Wang Zaijin and completely denies his predecessors. The strategy of abandoning Liao soil and guarding Shanhaiguan.

In addition, although the land of Liaodong has been abandoned, it is not of much benefit to Hou Jin. They are simply unable to occupy these lands due to the sparse population, and they are also short of food and clothing due to the impact of the climate of the small glacier. What they are more eager for is food rather than land, and Wang Zaijin has implemented a policy of strengthening the walls and clearing the land outside the pass after he took the initiative to retreat to Shanhaiguan, so the Eight Banners of Houjin have no interest in this land.

They are still interested in the countless Han Chinese who can be captured and enslaved and the endless property in Shanhaiguan.

Zhu Youxiao eradicated the eight Shanxi merchants and abandoned the land outside the customs, which almost completely interrupted the trade between Houjin and Daming, and made their production and life increasingly difficult. In order to break the deadlock, Huang Taiji had to launch an attack on Daming in advance.

Since Azige and Ning Wan were killed by Zhu Youxiao one after another last year, Huang Taiji's hatred for Zhu Youxiao is not insignificant. One is his own younger brother, and the other is his important counselor, but he is good at forbearance. After gaining insight into the situation, he did not take immediate retaliation. Instead, he sent Amin to attack North Korea so that North Korea would surrender to him, so as to avoid future worries. At the same time, he made good friends with Mongolia. , and reached the condition that Hou Jin can use Mongolia to attack Daming.

But now, after he secretly colluded with Guanning's iron cavalry to obtain a large amount of food and iron resources that were in short supply, Huang Taiji began to attack Daming with all his forces.

"Amin, Yue Tuo, you are all the way side division, leading 1 people including [-] armored soldiers, [-] unarmored soldiers and auxiliary soldiers to attack from Sanshanyingbao first, and then according to our prior agreement with Zu Dashou, you can go to With his help, he dived across the Shanhaiguan Pass, remembering that there is no need to fight the enemy, and immediately approached Yongping, forcing the Ming court to dispatch troops to Yongping, and at the same time, Ben Khan personally led the main forces of the banners to enter from the Xifeng entrance, and directly attacked him in the capital!"

"Yes!"

These Eight Banners Baylors who had money rats in their minds fluttering in the wind shouted in unison and sat back.

As Huang Taiji said, he said to Jierhalang behind him: "You stay in Shenyang, guard against Mao Wenning and other bandits, and make sure that the rear is not taken advantage of."

"Understood!" Jierhalang was a little unhappy. Everyone knew that this time he entered the customs to make a fortune, but he was the only one who wanted to stay in the back garden, so he was naturally a little unhappy.

While the other Baylors were full of excitement, Amin, who just slaughtered the people of Daming 21 Dunkou last year, was drooling even more. He wished he could lead his troops to the expedition immediately, and even said to Dorgon beside him, "Listen!" It’s been a long time since Wang Lan, the guard officer of the Ming army in Sanshan Battalion, took a few concubines.”

Dorgon sneered and didn't say much, but at this time, Fan Wencheng said first: "This time the Great Khan personally led the king's division to attack the Ming court. It can be said that the preparations are well prepared. The fake Mongolia made a detour to attack Xifengkou. Fighting Yongping to confuse the Ming army, with the speed of my Eight Banners cavalry, I am afraid that by the time that kid Zhu Youxiao reacts, I will have already put the big knife in my hand on his neck."

"Ha ha!"

Hearing what Fan Wencheng said, all the Baylors burst into laughter, and gave the Han man a rare thumbs up: "Mr. Fan's words are very true."

At this time, Huang Taiji didn't mean to suppress the morale of the people, and he couldn't help but smile. This was the first time he attacked Ming Dynasty since he took the throne, and it can be said that it is also an important proof of whether he should be the Great Khan. If this victory is won, then he will truly become the leader of the Later Golden Banners. If this battle is defeated, his position as the Great Khan will be unstable, and the Later Golden Banners will easily provoke internal strife.

However, he is full of confidence now, as Fan Wencheng said, he is fully prepared, it can be said that the right time, place and people are right.

"Okay, you all remember that the purpose of this battle is to plunder Daming to achieve the goal of supporting war with war, and the second is to intimidate the capital to force Zhu Youxiao to surrender and negotiate peace. Let us learn from the Song-Jin alliance to pay tribute and surrender, laying the foundation for us to steal the world in the future, if these two goals are not achieved, it will be a failure! It will be a shame to my Eight Banners!"

After Huang Taiji said this, Duoduo also stood up: "Khan, don't worry, how can Zhu Youxiao, a child who grew up in the deep courtyard of the palace wall, compare with you? In my opinion, he is even more cowardly than Song Gaozong of the Southern Song Dynasty! "

When Duoduo said this, Amin echoed: "Tell me, when Zhu Youxiao knows that we have arrived in his capital, will he be scared to pee his pants?"

After Amin said this, he immediately laughed again. These Eight Banners Baylors who had never experienced defeat had already forgotten the taste of failure.

Even Huang Taiji, who has always been prudent, couldn't help but smile at his favorite concubine Bu Ben Bu Tai when he returned to the harem: "I heard that Zhu Youxiao's queen is very beautiful, but I don't know how she compares to my concubine. "

A blush appeared on Buben Butai's face: "If your majesty likes it, he will be robbed and brought back at that time, but the concubine heard that Zhu Youxiao is training some guards, it seems that it should not be underestimated."

"Don't worry about this. According to detailed reports, there are only more than ten thousand soldiers, and all of them are firearms soldiers. Although the firearms are powerful, they are not as powerful as my Eight Banners warriors. The reason why the Ming army is so miserable is also related to their reliance on these strange skills. Fan Wencheng's words still make sense."

After speaking, Huang Taiji hugged Buben Butai and went into the back room, and started to take off his clothes rustlingly as soon as the light was blown on.

At this time, Dorgon also secretly climbed up to their eaves.
