I, the Ming Dynasty, can still save me

Chapter 581 Mang Gurtai’s Hypocrisy

"Since we surrender to the imperial court, we must obey the imperial court's arrangements."

Although he hated the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty in his heart, Amin did not dare to show the slightest contempt, but quickly agreed with him.

Seeing that Amin was so knowledgeable, Yang Lian showed a satisfied smile on his face and immediately waved his hand to let Amin and others enter the city.

Looking at the towering city walls of Shenyang, Amin couldn't help but think of the scene of the attack on Shenyang early last year.

Amin couldn't help but shake his head when he thought of this. In the bloody battle of Hunhe last year, Daikin suffered more than [-] casualties and injuries, and it was here that Daikin's decline began.He would never have imagined that just one year later he would come to Shenyang again, but as a surrendered general.

Under the leadership of Yang Lian and others, He Shixian, Amin and others soon arrived at the Liaoyang garrison.

At this time, Yang Lian also told Amin that the purpose of calling him to Shenyang this time was to persuade Mang Gurtai to surrender.

Since the city of Fushun was defeated and Mang Gurtai was captured in March this year, Mang Gurtai was escorted directly from Fushun to Liaoyang.As the first Jianlu Baylor to be captured, Xiong Tingbi and others still wanted to persuade Mang Gurtai to surrender.

The reason is because of him. Mang Gurtai is the son of Nurhaci and one of the four beile of Jianlu. If he can surrender, it will definitely damage the morale of Jianlu.

But Mang Gurtai seems to be very tough. He has been silent since he was captured. Even if Xiong Tingbi, Yang Lian and others personally persuaded him to surrender, it was of no use.

Xiong Tingbi himself had a bad temper. Seeing him like this, he gradually lost his patience. He immediately suggested that Mang Gurtai be escorted to the capital and left to the emperor's decision.When Yang Lian heard this, he shook his head and objected. Zhenglan Banner surrendered a total of 4000 people. One of their surrender slogans at that time was to ask Mang Gurtai to surrender to the Ming Dynasty and seek a way to survive.

If Ming Dynasty kills Mang Gurtai now, it will definitely arouse their dissatisfaction.At this critical moment, it is extremely unwise to do so.

So under the strong recommendation of Yang Lian and others, they decided to escort Mang Gurtai to Shenyang, and Amin personally persuaded him.

By doing this, Daming is considered to have done his best. If he still doesn't surrender, don't blame Daming for being ruthless.

Amin was told by He Shixian to do this before he came, so when he arrived at the garrison with Yang Lian and others, he immediately handed over his hand and said:
"Sir Governor, General Sin has heard that Mang Gurtai has also been escorted to Shenyang and does not know where he is. General Sin is willing to go there in person to persuade him to let Mang Gurtai know his way back. When the time comes, we will go to Fushun together to recruit other soldiers. Prisoners, disturbing the morale of the army."

"Well, it's very rare for you to have such thoughts. Mang Gurtai is indeed in Shenyang City. He has been stubborn and unwilling to surrender. Originally, Governor Xiong had lost patience and was preparing to escort him to Beijing to be punished by the Ministry of Punishment. But I couldn't bear it, so I brought him to Shenyang, hoping that you could talk things over with him. If he can bring things right, it would be a blessing. Then you can follow me to Liaoyang and accept the emperor's canonization."

Although Amin had been prepared in his heart, he couldn't help but feel sad when he heard Yang Lian finally mentioned that he wanted them to go to Liaoyang.

It seemed that he was right as he thought. Daming was determined to cut off their connection with the Two Blue Banners. If they went to Liaoyang, the more than 1 people from the Xianglan Banner would definitely be commanded by the Ming Dynasty. They would not know how to consume them by then. How many.

He Shixian on the side also saw the hesitation and dissatisfaction in Amin's heart, so he said slowly:
"Don't worry. Chen Liangbi, the governor of the capital camp, is a man who knows the military. He has more than 300 Krupp cannons, which are more than enough to defeat Sarhu. When the city of Sarhu is defeated, the court will let you go to the front line of Fushun. As for recklessness, Gurtai depends on his performance."

Seeing what He Shixian said, Amin immediately looked at Yang Lian, and saw that Yang Lian nodded slowly, feeling reassured.

"Since we have surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, we will naturally obey the imperial court's arrangements and do not dare to complain."

Seeing what Amin said, Yang Lian felt relieved for him, and then asked someone to take Amin down to rest first, and then went to see Mang Gurtai the next day, hoping to persuade him to surrender.

After Amin left, Yang Lian and He Shixian were the only ones left in the entire garrison hall.

"You did a good job this time. Not only did you persuade Amin to surrender with the blue flag, but you also persuaded him to follow you to Shenyang. Now that Amin is here, it will be easier to handle the surrendered Jianlu soldiers."

Yang Lian stared at Amin's disappearing figure, her smiling expression just now gradually disappeared, and she even praised He Shixian.But instead of being happy, He Shixian's face was filled with worry.

"Sir Governor, there are currently nearly 2 Jianlu soldiers surrendered in Fushun, and it is close to Sarhu. What if the old slave recruits these surrendered soldiers to rebel?" He Shixian's worry is normal. Although the many soldiers and horses of Jianlu have surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, if they disrupt the front line or cooperate with Nurha Chili and wait for an opportunity to attack the Beijing camp, it will definitely lead to chaos in the military morale and even the situation in Liaodong will be corrupted.

Therefore, although they understand that Xiong Ting and Yang Lian allocate Xianglan Banner to the Fushun front line, they want to drive away wolves and tigers and consume Xianglan Banner.But he knew that this was definitely a risky move and extremely risky.

How could Yang Lian not know He Shixian's worries.Seeing him say this, he nodded slowly and said:

"How come Governor Xiong and I don't understand what you're talking about? But there are so many Jianlu surrender soldiers. If Amin is allowed to lead the Xianglan Banner to station at the front line of Tieling, we don't have enough troops to monitor him. If he and Huang Taiji What should we do if we cooperate inside and outside, surrender and rebel again? Even if he does not surrender, these more than 1 people not only use a lot of Liao pay ordnance, but their hands are also stained with the blood of the Liao people. If they are allowed to develop, they will be a threat to the imperial court. It is extremely detrimental to our Liaodong plan and even to appease the hearts of the Liao people."

"It can be adjusted to Fushun. If something happens to Fushun, what should we do?"

"You are overthinking this. Among the 2 people, the docile [-] Haixi Battalion has been with the Ming Dynasty for a long time. It also has a blood feud with Jianlu, so naturally it will not rebel. What we have to deal with now is the army led by Tunbulu and others. Four thousand soldiers from the Xianglan Banner surrendered, and ten thousand soldiers from the Xianglan Banner led by Ga Duhun and others surrendered.

The flag owners of these two blue flags are currently in Shenyang, and they cannot contact the soldiers and horses in Fushun.Without these two people, the two Blue Flag troops in Fushun would not be able to connect in series.When the time comes, the imperial court will divide them up and it will naturally be easy to handle.

Besides, even if they have second thoughts, they still have to have this strength.Now, in addition to the Zhejiang camp and Sichuan troops heading to Fushun, Governor Xiong has transferred [-] troops to Fengjibao and Hupiyi garrisons, and all [-] troops have been transferred to Puhe Station. Fushun now has an army of nearly [-] from our army. Even if these people want to rebel, they cannot start a rebellion. When a big wave comes, Chen Liangbi has made detailed plans. "

When He Shixian heard Yang Lian's explanation, the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

However, he also knew that since so many troops gathered in Fushun, it meant that they would attack Sarhu in advance.Thinking of this, he couldn't help but want to get up and go to Fushun. He definitely didn't want to miss the credit of this battle.
-
Early the next morning, Amin was led by a dedicated person to a heavily guarded courtyard. After passing three levels of checkpoints, he saw Mang Gurtai, who had been waiting for a long time.The other guards also retreated, leaving only Amin to interview Mang Gurtai.

Mang Gurtai was wearing single clothes with a haggard look on his face. He looked at Amin silently but said nothing.Amin was not surprised when he saw this. Instead, he sat down next to Mang Gurtai, picked up the teapot on the table and slowly made tea for himself. After the tea was made, he poured a cup for each of them in a leisurely manner. , then he drank by himself.

He was quite uneasy when he came, and even felt ashamed to see Mang Gurtai.But for some reason, when he saw Mang Gurtai looking like this, the shame in his heart disappeared.

"Why do you have the nerve to sit here? My father Khan has been so kind to you. After Shulhaqi died, he not only did not punish you, but also allowed you to continue to lead others. But you are ungrateful, but in this kind of If we always seek refuge in the Ming Dynasty, we are really blind."

Seeing Amin so calm and composed, Mang Gurtai couldn't bear it and stared at him fiercely.

"Haha, Nurhachi killed my father and brother, so I still have to thank him, the enemy who killed my father? How cruel and ruthless I am, and I still have to be grateful to him. Do you think I will be like Jierhalang, who recognizes a thief as his father?"

Hearing Mang Gurtai's reprimand, Amin felt resentful in his heart. Mang Gurtai really stood up and talked without pain, and it was not his father who died, so he spoke so easily.

However, he shook his head as he spoke, and then looked at Mang Gurtai, with a little pity in his eyes.

"I would say that although the two of us are one of the four Baylors, we are not as good as Daishan and Huang Taiji. Think of how Daishan bullied you back then, but you were scolded by Nurhachi for just a little resistance, and you were deposed. The position of the leader of the Blue Flag is imprisoned at home. I wonder if such a person is really worthy of my allegiance.

Not to mention how much humiliation you suffered, I saw how the soldiers of Zhenglan Banner were humiliated by Zhenghong Banner.At that time they suffered humiliation because of you, and now they have surrendered to the Ming Kingdom to save Lan Qi and you from humiliation, but you are stubborn and have trapped them in injustice again.What else do you want from them? "

Amin knew Mang Gurtai's situation best, and he tore Mang Gurtai's hypocritical mask to pieces in just a few words.In his opinion, Mang Gurtai is really serious and powerful.

Nurhaci and Daishan treated him like this, and Amin himself knew that Mang Gur had long been dissatisfied with Nurhaci and others.But after he was captured, he refused to admit the matter and refused to surrender.

If you don't want to surrender, then commit suicide. But Mang Gurtai is not willing to die to show his ambition. He is still here to waste time with the people of the Ming Dynasty. It is clear that he wants the Ming Dynasty to treat him favorably and then give him a step to step down. It can reluctantly surrender.

Therefore, in Amin's opinion, Mang Gurtai is really hypocritical and hypocritical. Today, he will tear off his mask and make him feel ashamed.
