"I'm not asking you about withdrawing troops." Mangguertai said: "If you want to say more about retreating troops, you really don't want to fight anymore! As soon as you approach the city, the cannon came, and the smoke pillars were soaring for a long time, and people were panicked. If you can't fight, there was not much oil and water in the outer castle. Everyone wanted to retreat. There was no need to say more about this."

Huang Taiji smiled bitterly and said, "What are the fifth brother asking?"

"I want to ask you." A strange glory appeared in Manguertai's eyes. He said, "What are you going to do after you withdraw? You have six divisions, and the second brother and Amin are not happy. I will help you suppress it. Now this time the war is unfavorable, and everyone can't blame you, but it is inevitable to complain. When I came here, I deliberately shouted a few words, seeing that you are not angry, I know that Lao Ba, you have a clear idea. At this moment, don't be angry and find excuses for others is the most important thing!"

Huang Taiji did not expect that this fifth brother was very meticulous and thought that this war was not good, and there were many losses. The military rations he plundered were not enough to spend the money back and forth, and the loss of money was definitely dissatisfied. Each flag and each Niulu must have been dissatisfied. Everyone dared not yell in person like Manguertai, and there would definitely be no less discussion behind the scenes.

Even if we know rationally, the situation in Ningyuan last year changed. The Ming army had cannons and sat in Yijian City, even if the old khan came, it would not be able to fight. However, reason is rationality, emotion is emotion. In winter and early spring, each Niulu had insufficient food, and the bannermen would complain even more when they were hungry. At that time, there would definitely be more ugly words circulating below. Huang Taiji's prestige was enough to be a good four benefactor, but as a good khan, his prestige had not been widely established. Each banner listened to his own banner master, the small banner master listened to the big banner master, and the three big benefactors each had their own thoughts. In addition to the fifth brother, Manguertai, the second brother and Amin were obviously cold and hostile... It was one thing for everyone to promote Huang Taiji to come up, and it was another thing for fighting for power and profit with the Khan, and protecting his own one-acre and three-point land.

"I understand." Huang Taiji thought for a while and said, "I originally planned to conquer North Korea next year, but now it seems that I have to attack North Korea this year."

"This is a good trick." Mangourtai agreed: "Who will send?"

"Fifth brother can't leave, stay by my side to suppress those people." Huang Taiji said: "Call Amin, Degele, Shuotu, Yuetuo, Sahalian and others will all follow them together, and plunder more people's money and grain, and the resentment of each banner will be calmed."

Mangurtai didn't quite understand the strategic significance of fighting North Korea. It was Huang Taiji's strategic direction to break the shackles around him. He not only had to fight North Korea, but also had to hurt North Korea. It was of great significance to take a big threat in the rear.

While fighting North Korea, Yizhou and Tieshan must also sweep around. Dongjiang itself is very weak and it depends on the continuous blood transfusions of the Ming Dynasty. However, there are also quite a lot of military and civilians in Dongjiang Town who are busy farming on the North Korean side, which is also an important grain production base in Dongjiang Town. Although they are poor, they can still produce some output. While fighting North Korea, sweep this area around, and the blow to Dongjiang will be extremely heavy...

This is true. Tieshan and Yizhou suffered heavy losses during the first campaign of the dynasty, and they could not recover after a few years. This is also one of the important reasons why Dongjiang Town became poor and weak.

"Very good, very good, this transaction will not lose money." Mangguertai grinned.

In Manguertai's eyes, Dingkou, money and grain are the important things, and a higher-level grand strategy, this three Beile neither understands nor is he willing to worry about it.

If he was concerned about everything and was more accurate than Lao Ba, then why would he push Lao Ba to come up? Can he be a great knight?

The conch roar was blowing one after another, and the flag deputies had already collected the damaged armor and weapons, as well as the bodies of the Eight Banners soldiers who died in battle. The armor and robes on the Ming army's corpses were also peeled off. The Later Jin was still quite poor and weak. These armors were important strategic resources, and the robes and boots were also quite useful after washing them. The flag deputies and the Mongols were still quite lacking in clothing. As for the Han people's clothing, of course no one would care about their lives or death.

The cavalry teams in the distance also retreated, and the Later Jin soldiers began to retreat one after another. The cheers of the Ming army and laughter with obvious sarcastic meaning came from the city of Ningyuan. It seemed that the Ming army was still pounding gongs and gongs...

Mangurtai roared angrily, and many Eight Banners soldiers were in their eyes. Since Lao Khan raised his troops in the 47th year of Wanli, and in the past ten years, the Eight Banners soldiers have won many battles. They have killed nearly 200,000 Ming troops, killed more than 2 million Han people, and plundered more than one million Dingkou. The Jurchens have regarded the Han people as two-legged sheep, and they can kill them as they want. For the Ming army, they are both despised and despised. Usually when they hear the shouts of the Eight Banners soldiers, they see the cavalry appearing on both wings and the flags waving the Eight Banners, the Ming army will begin to be unstable. When the formation breaks forward, the Ming army will begin to collapse... How many years have they not encountered such a situation in front of them? This time the unfavorable war is a kind of humiliation for the entire Eight Banners, and resentment is inevitable.

What is worth worrying is that the Ming army's field combat capabilities have also risen. In the past few years, due to consecutive defeats, the Ming army in western Liaoning lost its power in field combat. Especially after the generals were transferred one after another, the general and Needing decreased, and the strength of the Ming army in western Liaoning was greatly weakened.

This is also one of the reasons why the Ming army suffered a crushing defeat in western Liaoning in the sixth year of Tianqi. It is strange that the generals cannot control themselves, the generals do not want to fight, and they are not strong enough. It is strange that they will not be defeated in a crushing defeat.

By May of the seventh year of the Apocalypse, the situation was very different. All the generals were training the soldiers hard. A large number of soldiers experienced the battle last year and gained a lot of experience. In addition, they trained hard, and the combat effectiveness was easily gained.

Speaking of which, there is no secret to training troops, it is nothing more than the four words "full soldiers and sufficient wages". If the general is a little capable, it is difficult for him to not become an elite soldier.

At least for all the generals, Need Ding is the capital for their survival. Even if they don’t train soldiers in the camp, Need Ding will be the one who needs to be trained. Now there are many generals in western Liaoning, including Zuo Dashou You Shilu, Zuo Fu Jin Guoqi and others, Shanhaiguan, Sun Zushou and Heiyunlong, Fengdian on the road, Jinzhou is Zhao Shujiao and others, and there are more than a dozen famous generals. In addition to many guerrilla generals, which one does not have hundreds of Need Ding? So this battle was particularly difficult. The Ming army not only dared to fight, but also greatly improved its strength.

With the continued support of the Ming Dynasty for western Liaoning, the Ming army will be motivated after this battle...

Huang Taiji shook his head and eliminated all kinds of speculations that were unfavorable to his side!

He always believed that the Ming Dynasty was not a solid piece of iron, and its bad boss was already the end of the dynasty. Such existence was easy to commit crimes by oneself. As long as you do the inner strength of the Later Jin Dynasty and wait for the opportunity...

Yes, just wait for the opportunity!

Huang Taiji's eyes seemed to penetrate Ningyuan in front of him and Shanhaiguan in the distance, crossed the capital of Ming Dynasty and large tracts of land, and shuttled to a small military fort further west.

Yes, Xinpingbao, Zhang Han mentioned that place many times. In Liaodong, Zhang Han met Huang Taiji often. Huang Taiji was born in the 20th year of Wanli. When he met Zhang Han, he was less than 29 years old. At that time, Zhang Han was only sixteen or seventeen years old. In Huang Taiji's eyes, he was just a hairless child. If he hadn't thought of buying horse bones for a daughter, he would have used Zhang Han as a symbol to attract more Han merchants, I'm afraid Huang Taiji would not have any interest in paying attention to the whimsical Han boy.

More than nine years have passed in a flash. Huang Taiji is nearly 40 years old and is still healthy. He has become a great khan of the Later Jin Dynasty. Zhang Han's success is even more dazzling. He has jumped from the owner of a small business to the lord of the prairie of thousands of miles. Millions of Mongolians crawl under his feet to the purse of the sacred sect. This is an achievement that Huang Taiji couldn't believe and imagine.

The Jurchens had been in charge for more than ten years. Before Hutchison used troops on the grassland, they conquered Korqin. They were still far away from conquering Chahar, Mobei, Tumote, and Kalaqin. Huang Taiji himself could not believe it or imagine that after he fought against Lin Dankhan, all the tribes rushed to surrender.

The Mongols were weak, but they really couldn't imagine that they were so weak. Huang Taiji only brought thousands of Jurchen soldiers into the grassland, and more than 100,000 leaders of various tribes came to join him. Each tribe followed his orders and accepted the constraints. Later, the alliance flag was established, and the Jurchens completely established a solid rule on the grassland.

Huang Taiji dared not think about such achievements now, and he was even more reluctant to think about them.

Because the Jurchens had no chance, Zhang Han had already built a military fort and a city in Korqin. This was the information of the Korqin herder who ran out sporadically, which was quite credible.

A large number of elite troops were stationed, and there were natural dangers of the Thirteen Mountains. Yizhou Acropolis had been restored. It was only a few dozen miles from Shenyang to the southeast end of the Korqin Grassland, but it took more than 400 miles to Guangning. It took more than 400 miles to gather troops from Shenyang. It took more than 400 miles to Guangning. It was then more than 600 miles to Guangning. It was a distance of more than 600 miles from Guangning to Grejuergen City. It was also necessary to attack the cities of each city and prepare for the Thirteen Mountains. Then go to Korqin to attack the city with large troops. Even if the Hutchison troops were not as elite as the Mongols boasted, it was a fact that Hutchison troops had a large number of heavy artillery. The Jurchens had suffered a great loss of artillery in Ningyuan and Jinzhou, and it was impossible to go to the Korqin Grassland to teach and conduct more violent bombardment.

To put it bluntly, there is no chance. The grassland defense line has been established. The dense forests in the north, the Korqin grassland, the Thirteen Mountains and the Yizhou Wei have become a solid whole. The Later Jin Dynasty has no chance at all, nor is it possible to rescue Korqin's allies from the clutches of Hutchison in a short period of time.
