Back to Daming to be a genius

Chapter 350
"Slap!" Babuhai exerted all his strength and slapped his No.13 brother Lai Mubu viciously on the face!Then, Babuhai asked viciously again, "Does it hurt?"

"Slap!" Lai Mubu exerted all his breastfeeding strength, and slapped his No.11 elder brother Babuhai's face even more viciously!Then, Lai Mubu asked more fiercely, "Does it hurt?"

"It hurts!" The two brothers, whose faces were swollen from the beating, replied in unison, and then hugged and laughed foolishly, with tears in their laughter.And beside them, in the tent of the most strict and solemn Chinese army, nearly a hundred Jiannu generals were like them, pinching their own thighs, pinching their cheeks, crying and laughing, and many others. The young Jiannu general with a beard on his face even cried bitterly on the spot, and a slogan slowly sounded in the big tent, merged into one piece, and resounded through the sky, "God bless Daikin! God bless my Eight Banners—!"

It’s not easy, it’s really not easy, just after Amin’s rebellion and escape last night, almost every Jiannu general and soldier has fallen into deep despair. Most of the Jiannu soldiers and generals are already praying secretly, hoping that Nurhachi can issue an order to withdraw troops in time, leaving a little hope of dying before the Eight Banners of Jiannu are completely destroyed.Even Nurhachi himself, including himself, has fallen into complete despair. He dare not dream of defeating the powerful enemy, Young Master Zhang. It is only due to the severe situation that he did not immediately issue an order to withdraw troops!It's just that all the soldiers and generals who built slaves and the leaders of Baylor's Banner could not have imagined that happiness would come so suddenly, and a turning point appeared at this desperate moment. Under the inexplicable ecstasy, the soldiers and generals who built slaves and the nobles of Baylor, all of them were already happy. I suspect that I am in a dream!

Indeed, the sudden assassination and death of Young Master Zhang reversed the situation of the entire battlefield at once.On the side of the Ming army, it is a taboo for military strategists to change commanders just before the battle. Whether it is Yuan Keli, the former deputy of Young Master Zhang, or Xiong Tingbi, who led the reinforcements, it is impossible to command the whole army as quickly as possible. The elite Ming army has too many types of troops, the battalions are diverse, and there are countless arrogant soldiers. Except for Young Master Zhang, Yuan Keli and Xiong Tingbi do not have enough prestige and courage to command so many and such a complicated army. The young master Zhang was suddenly assassinated and injured. It is a lie to say that the morale of the Ming army will not suffer a major setback. In the case of a major morale setback, it will take more time and effort for Xiong Tingbi or Yuan Keli to unite this army. The combat effectiveness of an army will also drop sharply.What's more troublesome is that Yuan Keli is almost a military idiot, while Xiong Tingbi is capable of fighting but lacks flexibility, and his temper is extremely violent and impulsive. Whether it is political tactics or battlefield strategy, he is far inferior to his son-in-law who is simply abnormal—— —And this happens to be the strongest point of Nuerhachi and Huang Taiji's father and son!It is precisely because of this that the current soldiers who built slaves have such an idea, "We are sure to win! This decisive battle, we are sure to win!"

After waiting in the big tent for a long time, the haggard-looking Nuerhachi finally walked out of the big tent with the support of two Jiannu guards, and sat in the handsome chair in the middle. In an instant, nearly a hundred Jiannu who were full of the tent knelt down together and shouted in unison. Shouted: "God bless Daikin! God bless sweat! Mother's ancestral stone, mother's ancestral stone, bright ancestral stone, life's ancestral stone, and the mother stone of the foundation of all generations bless God! The bloody murderer, the mad dog who brutally slaughtered our parents, wives and children, the common enemy of all Dajin subjects——Zhang Haogu barbarian, is dead!"

"Dead? Really dead?" In fact, Nuerhachi, who had received the report long ago, had dull eyes, and his whole body seemed to have aged ten years again overnight. He was old and depressed, and murmured: "Finally Dead? Then I can leave, but will Zhang Haogu laugh at me when I go underground? Do I really have the face to meet him underground?"

"Khan, since ancient times, he has never judged a hero by success or failure." Fan Wencheng said with joy, "Although you have never been able to fulfill your long-cherished wish, Khan, you have cut off the head of Zhang Haogu barbarian in an upright manner on the battlefield, but you killed him with your own hands." The one who killed Zhang Haogu is still your granddaughter Princess Xiao Yuer, which means you killed Zhang Haogu!"

"Yeah, Khan, Xiaoyuer Gege killed Zhang Haogu's little savage, it means you killed him!" Countless Jiannu generals shouted excitedly, "Xiao Yuer Gege also died for the country, Da Khan should chase after him!" Name her Heshuo Gege, and set up a bronze statue for her to commemorate her extraordinary achievements in avenging countless Dajin soldiers and civilians!" The gold generals and subjects are grateful to Xiao Yuer Gege!" "Yes, chasing Gulun Gege!"

The general Jiannu screamed vigorously, baring his teeth and waving his claws, like a group of demons dancing wildly, while Nuerhachi remained silent. Huang Taiji understood what his father was thinking, and quickly stood up and waved his hands to signal the generals to shut up.Finally, when the big tent became quiet, Huang Taiji said cautiously: "Ama, you can talk about Xiao Yu'er's posthumous posthumous title slowly. Now that Zhang Haogu is dead, the barbarian's army must be in chaos. The big setback is a good opportunity for our army to fight back, and I request you to send troops immediately to attack the barbarian camp!"

"The last general is willing to be the vanguard!" All the generals who built slaves, including Fan Wencheng, who was a civil servant, took a step forward, clapping their hands together and shouting.Nuerhachi slammed the table fiercely, and roared wildly: "Everyone, step down! No one is allowed to go out to fight in the camp today! Anyone who violates the order will be killed immediately!"

The Jiannu generals and the traitors such as Fan Wencheng watched each other, but they didn't dare to ask more questions, so they obediently withdrew.Nuerhachi stood up tremblingly again, and said with difficulty: "Three orders, first, the whole army should wear mourning for Zhang Haogu, and raise flags to mourn. Second, prepare three sacrifices and send envoys to send them to Zhang Haogu." The barbarian barracks pays homage to filial piety. Third, tomorrow morning, I will give up the Xingchan to the old eighth."

"Ama, I don't dare!" Huang Taiji was surprised and happy, and hurriedly knelt down in a hypocritical way and postponed modestly.Nuerhachi said lightly: "I've made up my mind, don't push it away. Starting tomorrow, the army will be given full command to you. I will concentrate on recuperating."

"Master, Da Khan has worked so hard for you to defeat the barbarians, consolidate your position and establish your prestige. You must not push it away." Fan Wencheng knelt beside Huang Taiji and reminded him in a very low voice.Huang Taiji first glanced at Fan Wencheng quietly out of the corner of his eye, thinking that I still need you to teach me this point, but I don't understand it myself?Then he kowtowed and shed tears, choked up and said: "My son obeys the order."

Although the Jiannu generals still didn't understand Nuerhachi's order, Nuerhachi's prestige was still there. With an order, hundreds of thousands of Jiannu soldiers still obediently put on hemp and filial piety for Young Master Zhang, and the camp Before returning the door, a flag calling for souls was set up to express condolences for Young Master Zhang, a sworn enemy.In the end, Nuerhachi once again sent Tong Yangxing as an envoy, and brought three sacrifices to the Ming army camp to pay filial piety and pay homage.Facing the two absurd decisions made by Nuerhachi, although Huang Taiji did not dare to object publicly, he could only obediently carry out the order, but when Tong Yangxing was about to leave, Huang Taiji still clung to Tong Yangxing's ear and confessed in a low voice One of my own orders......

………………

After the application time in the afternoon, Tong Yangxing's filial piety team came to the Ming army camp with white flags. At this moment, the Ming army camp was already completely white. Although they couldn't find so many white cloths in a hurry, every soldier of the Ming army The helmet was still wrapped in a white cloth, and the white spirit-calling flag in front of the Chinese army camp was even ten feet high, floating slowly in the bleak north wind, bringing the sound of crying and tears to the Ming army camp. It makes it even more bleak.Seeing this, the veteran traitor was so happy that he almost wanted to laugh out loud on the spot, but considering that there were tearful and murderous soldiers of the Ming army everywhere, Tong Yangxing still restrained his inner joy, honestly Explain the purpose of coming to the gate guard of the Ming army camp, and ask to pay homage to the spirit of Young Master Zhang.

After waiting for an hour outside the gate of the Ming army camp, a group of troops finally came out of the Ming army camp, led by a frail old man dressed in filial piety, bowed his hands to Tong Yangxing and said: "This official is Yuan Keli, the Minister of the Ministry of War of the Ming Dynasty and the governor of Liaodong. Dare I ask your surname, sir?" Tong Yangxing also knew that Yuan Keli was a rare logistics officer in the Ming court, so he hurriedly bowed his hands and returned the gift, introduced himself and explained the purpose of filial piety, Yuan Keli replied in embarrassment: "Mr. Even if you come to pay filial piety to Zhang Shaobao as enemies, we should treat each other more politely, but we, Zhang Shaobao, were assassinated to death by your bogus gold agents, and all the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty wanted to avenge Zhang Shaobao. Misunderstood that you are just here to watch a joke, and want to kill you to avenge Zhang Shaobao. So I advise Mr. Tong, you'd better go back, I accept Zhang Shaobao's kindness from your pseudo-khan."

"Master Yuan misunderstood, the envoy is definitely not here to laugh at your army." Tong Yangxing said quite sincerely: "It's just that our Dajin soldiers think that although Master Zhang Haogu is the sworn enemy of our Dajin soldiers, he is also An extremely respectable opponent, for his unfortunate death, all of us Dajin sighed, so the Great Khan specially ordered my Dajin soldiers to wear mourning, raised flags to mourn, and sent envoys to offer three sacrifices, Pay homage to the soul of Master Zhang Haogu, to show the respect of our soldiers to Master Zhang Haogu, and hope for your kindness."

Yuan Keli hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Well, I will take you to pay homage to Master Zhang Haogu, but I have to warn Mr. Tong in advance that Zhang Shaobao's father-in-law Xiong Dushi and mother-in-law Dashuai Qin have a bad temper. , They feel sorry for the tragic death of their son-in-law, if they do anything inappropriate, I can only try my best to save it." Tong Yangxing replied respectfully: "Master Yuan, please rest assured, since the envoy dared to come, he has already made all mental preparations. "

Yuan Keli nodded, made an invitation ceremony, and led Tong Yangxing and his party into the Ming army camp, passing through the hostile and angry eyes of countless Ming army soldiers, all the way to the Chinese army tent where the mourning hall is located.But as soon as Tong Yanghe and the six Jiannu soldiers carrying the sacrifices entered the big tent, there was a sound of drawing knives in the middle of the crying Chinese army big tent. He slapped the table and roared: "Yuan Liqing, I want you to drive away the envoy of Jiannu, why did you bring him in? Come on, take down all these dog Jiannu and cut them off! Take their heads as a memorial My son-in-law!"

"Slow!" Yuan Keli yelled in time, stopped the soldiers of the Ming army who swarmed forward, and said to Xiong Tingbi: "Master Xiong, the two countries are fighting each other. If you don't kill them, although Jiannu is our enemy, but They are now here to pay tribute to Zhang Shaobao, and we can’t kill them because of emotion and reason, we should let them offer sacrifices to Zhang Shaobao to express their grief. As for how to avenge Zhang Shaobao, we can only do it on the battlefield.”

"Fart!" Xiong Tingbi yelled with bloodshot eyes, "Gou Jiannu's spy killed my son-in-law, and then pretended to come here to pay homage to my filial piety. I really think I don't exist? Now I'm the coach, listen to me, give me a fuck, Cut down all the Jiannu!"

"No!" Yuan Keli stopped again, and retorted righteously: "Master Xiong, I am very sorry, according to Zhang Shaobao's entrustment, now you are not the commander of the Ming army, but I am."

"What?" Xiong Tingbi couldn't believe his ears.Yuan Keli said in a deep voice: "When Zhang Shaobao was seriously ill, he ordered Xiong Dushi to lead the army northward, intending to hand over the command of the army to Xiong Dushi, but at that time, just in case, Zhang Shaobao gave a special order. Supervisor, before you took over the sword seal, he unfortunately passed away, so I will be in charge of the sword seal of the commander of the Ming army—this point, Zhang Shaobao’s aides, Mr. Song and Shi Kefa, can testify.”

"Master Xiong, Yuan Zhongcheng didn't lie to you." Song Xiance stood up in filial piety to testify, Shi Kefa also nodded and said: "Master Xiong, Zhang Shaobao did have this order, and since Zhang Shaobao's condition worsened again two days ago, In order to prevent accidents, Zhang Shaobao has handed over the commander's sword and seal to Yuan Zhongcheng, and all the transfers of money and food in the Ming army in the past two days were actually sent by Yuan Zhongcheng in the name of Zhang Shaobao."

"Then I'm here now, give me the sword seal!" Xiong Tingbi stretched out his bear paw without hesitation, and asked Yuan Keli for the sword seal of Young Master Zhang.Yuan Keli replied in a deep voice: "Master Xiong can ask for Zhang Shaobao's sword seal, but the situation is complicated now, and I can't hand it over. I have to wait for a meeting to discuss and decide." With the sword and the seal of the commander in hand, he held the seal of the sword in his hand and shouted: "I now give an order in the honor of the temporary commander of the Great Ming Northern Expedition Army to clear the way and let the envoys of the enemy come to pay homage to Zhang Shaobao's spirit. In accordance with the etiquette of the two armies! If there are any obstacles, Military law is engaged!"

Although Xiong Tingbi has a violent temper, the concept of superiority and inferiority that he has cultivated over the years has long been marrow. After staring at the Shangfang sword and the commander's seal in Yuan Keli's hands, he gasped for a long time, and finally stepped out of the way angrily. The other Ming army soldiers were forced to Helpless, he could only grit his teeth and step back.Only Tong Yangxing was ecstatic in his heart, but his face remained calm, he just went to the spirit of Young Master Zhang to offer sacrifices honestly, offered incense and liberated wine with his own hands, and then knelt in front of the spirit of Young Master Zhang and kowtowed Three heads - of course, no matter how courageous Tong Yangxing was, he didn't dare to play Zhuge Liang's mourning game. He just said "Heroic spirit is gone" and got up to leave.Yuan Keli didn't ask him to stay, but just returned the courtesy and said: "Mr. Tong, please go slowly, I won't send it away. When you go back, please tell the puppet Khan Nuerhachi, Zhang Shaobao's revenge, our Ming soldiers will definitely report it on the battlefield."

"The envoy will definitely repay you truthfully." Tong Yangxing cupped his hands and said, "There is one more thing, the Great Khan wants me to tell the soldiers of your army that tomorrow morning, our Great Khan will walk in the army and abdicate the position of Khan to the No. The eighth son, Huang Taiji Baylor, if there is any exchange of courtesy between your army in the future, you can directly contact me, Dajin Xinhan, Huang Taiji."

"Old Jiannu wants to take the Zen seat?" The soldiers of the Ming army were all taken aback. They never expected that Jiannu would also change commanders just before the battle.Tong Yangxing ignored Ming Jun's surprise, and turned to the three Amin brothers who were also dressed in filial piety and said, "You must know the magnanimity of Erbeile and Sibeile. Tomorrow you will become the new Khan of Dajin The fourth Baylor asked me to tell you by the way, if you are not happy with the Ming army, you can go back at any time, he will not care about the past."

Of course the three Amin brothers dared not speak, but Yuan Keli changed his face and shouted angrily: "Tong Yangxing, is this something you can do as an envoy? Please leave immediately, if you say one more word, I will kill someone." !" Tong Yangxing smiled and replied: "Master Yuan, don't blame, this is just a small envoy's advice to his former compatriots. Since Master Yuan doesn't say much, then the envoy won't say much. Let's leave." After finishing speaking, Tong Yangxing led the Jiannu soldiers away. The Ming army wanted to chase and kill them, but Yuan Keli ordered: "No one is allowed to move, let them go. Our Ming Dynasty is a state of etiquette, not a barbarian. Don't let Jian Slaves mock us."

"Huh!" Tong Yangxing snorted coldly in his heart, and said secretly: "That's great, Zhang Hao, the ancient barbarian, is dead, and the one who takes over the sword seal of the barbarian's commander is another pedantic old man, even if the old barbarian Xiong Tingbi can take over the command It’s too late for Quan to get familiar with the army, God bless me, God bless me! I have to report this good news to the two Khans immediately!”

........................

When he happily returned to the Jiannu camp, it was already dark. Nuerhachi, who was depressed, lay down on the hospital bed early to vent his depression in front of the opium smoke. Huang Taiji and Fan Wencheng were discussing the military situation and discussing how to reorganize the army after succeeding to the throne.After listening to Tong Yangxing's truthful report, Huang Taiji and Fan Wencheng were overjoyed at first, and then Huang Taiji couldn't wait to ask Fan Wencheng: "Mr. Fan, do you know the situation of this barbarian Yuan Keli? How capable is he?"

"Yuan Keli, whose name is Liqing, was a Jinshi in the 17th year of Wanli. His qualifications are older than that of Xiong Tingbi, and he is also seven years older than Xiong Tingbi." Fan Wencheng proudly showed off his photographic memory, and said like a treasure: "This old barbarian is quite well-known among the barbarians. He solves cases like a god. He even visited the Ryukyu Kingdom and solved the pending case of the sulfur ball. He is known as Yuan Qingtian. The barbarian Tianqi accumulated meritorious service in the second year and was promoted to the Minister of the Ministry of War. He is good at financial management. Barbarians and others Over the years, the supply of food, grass and military salaries in Liaodong has been sufficient, and his contribution is not small. This time, Zhang Haogu, a little barbarian, went out to fight because of illness. All the officials of the barbarians were worried that his illness would not be good for the military, so the Manchu court opposed him. Only Yuan Keli and the old eunuch Wei Zhongxian supported him, so Zhang Hao Gu Xiaomanzi recommended him to take over as the governor of Liaodong, as his deputy, to manage money, food and supplies for Zhang Hao Gu Xiaomanzi."

"So, this old barbarian is very good at logistics." Huang Taiji asked again: "Then can he fight? Does he have any experience in the battlefield?"

"No." Fan Wencheng replied with a smile: "This old man has been an official for decades, except for adjudicating cases and managing money. He has never been on the battlefield, let alone led the army. Drive the duck to the shelf and force him to come here."

"Even if you haven't fought a war, you can't underestimate it." Huang Taiji said in a long voice: "Back then we thought that Zhang Haogu, the little barbarian, couldn't fight. In order to deal with the barbarian army more easily, we just got him Liaodong came, and ended up attracting this little devil, little calamity, little mad dog!"

"Master, this slave dares to guarantee with his head that Yuan Keli is definitely not your opponent!" Fan Wencheng blushed when he mentioned the first sad thing in his life, and hurriedly emphasized: "Let's not say that Yuan Keli has never been on the battlefield, just say The old barbarian Xiong Tingbi will never listen to him, and will only ask him for the command of the army. At that time, hehe, the old barbarian Yuan Keli is older than the old barbarian Xiong Tingbi, and he is older than the old barbarian Xiong Tingbi. Hand it in, and the barbarian army will have a lot of fun."

Huang Taiji didn't speak anymore, and after thinking for a long time, Huang Taiji said slowly: "Mr. Fan, Ama will give me the Zen seat tomorrow. After I succeed to the throne, do you think I should take advantage of Zhang Haogu's little brother?" Should the barbarian retreat when he dies of illness? Or should we attack with all our strength and fight to the death with the barbarian army?"

"Master, this slave thinks a decisive battle is necessary!" Fan Wencheng said in a deep voice, "Although withdrawing troops now is a surefire solution, you can also free up your hands to deal with the barbarians in the rear, but master, have you ever thought about what the Great Khan will think of you? The soldiers of the Great Jin What will you think of you? Zhang Haogu, the little barbarian died suddenly, and the main force of the barbarian changed coaches before the battle and there was internal discord. It was a breeze for us to win the battle. Only after this big victory, master, you will take the throne. Be steady, the barbarian army that rushes into our rear will not be rushed back, and your prestige will be established, master. At the same time, after defeating the main force of the barbarians, the barbarians will definitely be unable to invade Liaodong within a few years. Master, you will revive the Eight Banners and prosper Daikin, there is plenty of time."

"Furthermore, this slave thinks that this battle should not just drive away the main force of the barbarians, it's fine, we should continue to fight south and fight all the way to Shanhaiguan!" Going to Shanhaiguan has two advantages. First, you can use the [-]-mile-long road in the Liaoxi Corridor to hunt down and kill the barbarians all the way, expand our army's achievements, seize the food, grass and luggage that the barbarians have no time to take away, and eliminate the main force of the barbarians to the greatest extent! Second, it can rescue Ningyuan, now Ningyuan is still in the hands of Yuan Chonghuan's barbarians. There are countless food, grass, supplies and slave women that our Dajin urgently needs in the city, as well as Yuan Chonghuan's [-] troops. Having these will help revitalize our Dajin and strengthen our Dajin army. There will also be countless benefits! If not, if our army just drives away the barbarian army and retreats triumphantly, then the main force of the barbarians goes south and captures Ningyuan, and Yuan Chonghuan is defeated and killed. You have been infamous for killing donkeys and refusing to save them, from now on, which barbarian civil and military official would dare to surrender to you, master?"

"In view of these circumstances, the servant believes that we have only one choice now!" Fan Wencheng slapped the table heavily, and said vigorously: "That is to fight resolutely, and fight to Shanhaiguan! If God blesses, our army will be able to fight against the enemy on the way. If the main force of the barbarians is wiped out, then it will be easy to win Shanhaiguan, and the strategic initiative of the whole world will also fall into your hands, master! This battle will be of great benefit, if we do not fight, we will only continue to be passive!"

Huang Taiji remained silent for a long time, and after a long time, Huang Taiji slapped the table and stood up, gritted his teeth and said, "Fight! Go to Ningyuan! Go to Shanhaiguan! Fight for my prestige! Fight for my ten thousand miles! Fight for my ten thousand years is not easy!" Daikin Foundation!"
