Chapter 1071
The panic-stricken messenger who came rushing forward was slightly taken aback when he heard this. What's the urgent report from Zhenjiang Fort?

However, he immediately put this thought to the back of his mind, and ignored Oboi, the commander of the guards. In a hurry, he knelt down on one knee, tied a horse tie, and hurriedly said: "Liaoyang is in danger, please Your Majesty." Quickly dispatch reinforcements..."

Seeing that the messenger ignored him, Obai was a little angry at first, but when he heard the messenger's words, his anger immediately disappeared.He was also a little panicked, and immediately turned to look at his master.

Hearing this, Huang Taiji swayed, almost lost his footing, his face paled suddenly, and he shouted sharply: "What's going on in Liaoyang, what's the matter?"

At this time, he never thought that he interrupted the messenger so impatiently, but let him know the details later.

"Ming army...Ming army came continuously from Anshan post castle, Lord Belle immediately sent his servants to ask for help!" This is the first messenger sent by Amin, I really don't know the details .

After figuring out what was going on, Huang Taiji didn't have time to complain.Immediately passed the decree and held an emergency military meeting.Then, he wandered back and forth in a hurry at the gate of Chongzheng Hall, like a fox whose tail was burned by fire, so anxious that he didn't know what to do!

"What's the matter, what is Sony doing?" Huang Taiji looked very worried, but at the same time he was very angry, "You can't even say a Cao Wenzhao, but you can say that the Ming army is attacking? Why didn't I?" It can be seen that this Sony is so useless..."

"Could it be that Amin is so old-fashioned that he didn't find out until the Ming army approached the city?" Huang Taiji's face became a little grim, "Could it be that this guy is still trying to embarrass me and make me look good at this time? Deliberately making it difficult for me?"

……

After he thought wildly for a while, Daishan, Jierhalang and others hurried over one after another.At this time, the Chongzheng Hall completely lost the previous relaxed atmosphere, heavy and oppressive, anxiety and panic permeated the Chongzheng Hall.

At this time, the Manchu and Qing slave chieftains all forgot about Zhenjiang Fort.In fact, Liaoyang is much more important than Zhenjiang Fort.Zhenjiang Fort can be lost, but Liaoyang must not be lost.

The questions that Huang Taiji had had also surfaced in the minds of Dai Shan and others.They couldn't figure out why the situation in Liaoyang, which seemed to be a bit stable, suddenly took a turn for the worse?

If they were talking about the reinforcements in Seoul, North Korea, they still had to worry about whether to reinforce them, but on the Liaoyang side, they didn't discuss whether to reinforce them at all, because there was only one answer, Liaoyang must not be lost, otherwise the Ming army would surely come to Shenyang!
When they were discussing and guessing the military situation in Liaoyang in a hurry, the second batch of messengers sent by Amin arrived.

"What? The Ming army has hundreds of red barbarian cannons?" Dai Shan confirmed in shock.

"What? Lu Xiangsheng is the commander of the Ming Army?" Huang Taiji was also shocked, but his focus was different from Daishan, and he said loudly, "How is this possible? Didn't he lead the army to attack Seoul?"

Jierhalang also asked at the same time: "The Ming army has about 2 people? Do you have the Dongjiang army, the Xin army, and the Guanning army?"

The messenger felt that his father and mother had given a few mouths, and he couldn't answer at all. In desperation, he had no choice but to confirm the reply according to his official position.

After understanding the specific battle situation in Liaoyang, Huang Taiji suddenly realized, and couldn't help saying bitterly: "This should be Lu Xiangsheng's trick. He shot a feint, making my Qing Dynasty think that he is going to attack Seoul, North Korea, and divert the tiger away from the mountain so that Liaodong can fight against it." Send reinforcements to North Korea, and he himself immediately assembled a large number of troops to plot against Liaoyang!"

"Your Majesty, maybe that Fan Wencheng has a ghost and deliberately reported us a false news, so that we can mobilize our Liaodong army!" Daishan said later, feeling that the possibility was very high, so he said sharply, "Sure. This is the case, otherwise Lu Xiangsheng would not dare to attack Shenyang with only 2 troops, he is sure that this false news will reach Shenyang!"

At this time, even Jierhalang, who has always been relatively stable, ignored the etiquette in front of the imperial court, and rushed to express his judgment: "It is also possible that Lu Xiangsheng learned that Sony was going to negotiate a peace, and in order to achieve his goal, he asked Liaoyang to withdraw. Exploring the horse. Lu Xiangsheng is a man of both civil and military skills, and he is also a great official of the Ming Dynasty. With such a good opportunity, he even denied the peace talks and sent troops to attack Liaoyang instead. As long as Liaoyang City is taken by him, he will be regarded as the capital of the Ming Dynasty Knowing the details afterwards, I won’t blame him for making his own decisions!”

……

The leaders of the Qing Dynasty in the Chongzheng Palace were all from war backgrounds. According to the messenger's report, they expressed their opinions. You said something, I said it, and it didn't take long for them to analyze the whole incident clearly. up.

To sum it up, after Lu Xiangsheng heard the news of the Qing Dynasty's peace talks, he didn't think about the peace talks. Instead, he took advantage of the peace negotiations and released false news first, asking the Qing Dynasty to send troops to rescue North Korea, so as to reduce the difficulty of attacking Liaoyang.Then, using the "sincerity" of the Qing Dynasty to negotiate peace, he tricked Liaoyang into withdrawing all Tanma into the city, so that it would be convenient for his army to march and give Liaoyang a surprise attack, so that he would have the greatest possibility to take down Liaoyang, the gateway to Shenyang.

After sorting out the clues, Huang Taiji almost gritted his teeth and said in a hateful voice: "I expected Lu Xiangsheng to be a cunning person, but I didn't expect him to be so cunning! This person is too scary, really scary!"

Speaking of this, his face looked a little grim, he glanced at the officials below, and said sharply: "Lu Xiangsheng certainly did not expect that our Qing Dynasty would suddenly send someone to negotiate peace, and he must have rushed to seize this opportunity to fight temporarily But it was a desperate move. Dongjiang Army, Guanning Army, and Xin Army, the three Ming armies, all assembled. I dared to expect that this was all the troops that Lu Xiangsheng could muster on the front line. In order to capture Liaoyang in one fell swoop, He even carried hundreds of Hongyi cannons. This is because he didn’t want to give me the time to rescue the Qing Dynasty! He can go all out and gamble once to take Liaoyang down. Wouldn’t I go all out once and wipe out Lu Xiangsheng’s invading Ming army? Under Liaoyang City?"

Hearing what he said, many leaders of the Manchu Qing Dynasty saw the hidden favorable factors in it, and immediately agreed with them all.After all, Liaoyang had to be rescued. If the Ming army fought steadily and gathered heavy troops, then the Qing Dynasty might really have no choice; but now, they all feel that at least the Qing Dynasty still has a fight!
Seeing that all the courtiers agreed, Huang Taiji no longer hesitated, and immediately shouted in a decisive tone: "I have decided to take out all the stored food, and all the troops of the Qing Dynasty will gather for the battle. When the Ming army is wiped out, it will be the time when our Qing Dynasty will perish. In this battle, our Qing Dynasty has no way out!"

"Zha!" All the ministers in the Chongzheng Hall, with solemn and solemn expressions, shouted loudly and responded to Huang Taiji.

Without taking out all the stored food, the reinforcements would not be able to move out at all.And taking out all the stored grain means the consumption of grain, and there will be a period of time before the autumn harvest, and there will be no grain to eat at all.Unless this battle can be won, the materials of the Ming army are seized.

In the past, there was an oolong quarrel, which caused Daqing to go to war, but in the end it was just a waste of money and food.But this time is different, Lu Xiangsheng has personally led the army to besiege Liaoyang, combined with other details, there must be no fake.

"Assembly immediately, tomorrow morning, we must go to war!" Huang Taiji stood up as soon as he slapped the case, and shouted loudly, "In the battle of life and death in the Qing Dynasty, you should fight the enemy bravely and fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death!" Many Qing leaders responded impassionedly and swore loudly, almost in unison.

Just when everyone was leading the decree and preparing to go back, Jierhalang who had already arrived at the door suddenly stopped, stretched out his hand to stop the others and said, "Wait!"

When everyone heard it, they were a little surprised. They didn't know what he meant?
Huang Taiji was also puzzled, and looked up at him.

I saw a bit of suspicion on Ji Erhalang's face, and he bowed to Huang Taiji and said: "Your Majesty, I suddenly feel a little strange. Logically speaking, if Lu Xiangsheng wants to take down Liaoyang with confidence, he must also think about reinforcements." Question. The simplest and most feasible method is to send troops to cut off the connection between Liaoyang and Shenyang, so that even the rescue messengers will not be able to reach Shenyang, wouldn’t that be more appropriate?”

Upon hearing this, the others were slightly taken aback, but after looking back, it seemed that it really made sense.

Huang Taiji frowned and fell into thinking.

When Jierhalang saw him, he explained again: "In the past few years, I have seen Lu Xiangsheng's methods. This person is full of tricks, and it is really necessary to guard against him. I am afraid that he has some conspiracy and tricks waiting for me. clear!"

The leaders of the Manchu Qing Dynasty naturally didn't know that Lu Xiangsheng was actually just an executor. More importantly, Emperor Chongzhen provided military information, organized military discussions, coordinated the army, and guaranteed logistics behind the scenes. Otherwise, if they knew, they would not have said so.

Hearing Jierhalang's words, the other Manchu leaders couldn't help but agree.Even Huang Taiji was no longer silent, and immediately issued an order to resend the messenger from Liaoyang to ask for details.

The reply from the first courier was that there were indeed Ming Guoye who did not accept to intercept them, but the number of them was small, so it was easy to get rid of them.

The second messenger's reply was more tragic.On the way to Shenyang to report the news, he escorted his companions, but desperately stopped the Ming army who tried to stop them.Speaking later, the messenger was already tearing up excitedly and said: "Your Majesty, without their sacrificing their lives to intercept, it is impossible for the slave to send the news safely. Everyone is looking forward to reinforcements, otherwise Liaoyang will not be safe... Woo Woohoo"

At this moment, no one blamed the messenger for his impoliteness. They all understood that this time the Ming army invaded aggressively, and all the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty understood that this was a battle for the survival of the Qing Dynasty. Desperately desperate!

Amidst the whining of the man, the tragic atmosphere of the end permeated the Chongzheng Hall again.

After a while, Daishan sighed, and played to Huang Taiji: "Your Majesty, the old minister thought that Lu Xiang sent troops to attack Liaoyang when he ascended. Although there were some Yebushuai who intercepted the messengers, it was urgent and it was impossible to cover everything. Moreover, Amin also reacted very quickly, and sent a messenger immediately. With these two aspects combined, the situation is not surprising now. The difficulty of sending letters from Liaoyang messengers is also sufficient to explain this. If the veteran's expectations are correct , Liaoyang, I am afraid that the third batch of messengers will not be sent."

After hearing this, Huang Taiji and the others nodded unconsciously, as if they agreed with this statement.Jierhalang even walked up to the messenger, reached out to help the messenger who was kneeling and weeping, patted him on the shoulder, and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, just sighed slightly.

Huang Taiji watched and was silent for a while, and then decided: "Your Excellencies, go back and prepare according to the previous discussion. I will also send scouts. If no messenger arrives before tomorrow morning, there is no delay and rescue Liaoyang immediately!"

"Cha!" The Manqing leaders in the hall responded in unison again, and finally left the Chongzheng Hall to disperse.

Soon, the city of Liaoyang became more noisy, but it was no longer cheers and celebrations, but people shouting and neighing.Many Jianlu couldn't understand why there was a great victory one moment ago, and Liaoyang was in critical condition the next moment, and the emperor of the Qing Dynasty needed to rush to rescue with all his troops.

Regarding this situation, Huang Taiji no longer had the heart to care about it. He wanted to personally conquest. Although it was much simpler than that of Emperor Chongzhen, there were still many things to deal with.He was so busy until nightfall that he didn't get a messenger, so he knew that there was no need to send out scouts to report back, and it was estimated that Liaoyang could not be contacted at all.

After receiving the news reported by various sources, Huang Taiji couldn't help but sigh again.Lu Xiangsheng's strategy of diverting the tiger away from the mountain was ultimately useful.The elite of the two yellow flags were taken away by Hauge.And in order to hurry, more than half of the horses were moved away.Now there are not many cavalry available for the reinforcements that can be assembled here in Shenyang City!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but hate Fan Wencheng again. He usually behaved like Zhuge Liang, but once he really started to do things, he always had problems.Thanks to myself for valuing him, he did not hesitate to use a different surname king to motivate him.Fortunately, after he brought a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry to the pass, there was no news of him, and the so-called help to install internal support in the Liaodong Ming army brought a serious shortage of troops to the Qing Dynasty.

Fan Wencheng, damn it!

If Fan Wencheng in the eighteenth floor of hell knew that he was so missed by Huang Taiji, would he regret it?
By the early morning of the next day, almost all the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty had gathered outside Shenyang City.At this time, Shenyang City was almost empty.There used to be old and weak women and children, but they were all sent to North Korea in order to save food.

Huang Taiji was also dressed in military uniform. Looking at the more than 2 soldiers who had gathered together, he slowly glanced past. Seeing these soldiers of the Qing Dynasty, each of them was sallow and thin, and some of them were like a bamboo pole. In his eyes, according to the In the past, if the elite weighed it, I am afraid that the soldiers directly under the princes Baylor can be counted.

But no matter what, this is a national war, and we have to gather the greatest strength to increase the weight of victory and fight for the survival of the Qing Dynasty.
