When Nurhaci arrived at Sarhu, the battlefield was already silent. Among the fresh tombs that could not be seen at a glance, there were countless of his own people lying there. They had already been frozen into popsicles. They were originally boiling.

The hot blood condensed into pieces of ice, glowing a strange red under the pale sunlight, which was shocking to people.

Walking in this sea of ​​​​blood and corpses, Nurhaci roared loudly: "Heli, you old bastard, how can you open a battlefield here? If you win this battle, it doesn't matter, but if you defeat, you know this

Do you know the consequences? Do you know what a blow to the morale of our army is? Do you know what the outcome is to the increase in Ming's momentum? I want to kill you, I want to kill your whole family, I want to destroy it.

Your nine tribes."

E Yidu, who was following him, also shut up at this time and stopped pleading for his old friend and brother.

This battle was not lost in battle, but in the location of Sarhu, and in politics. First, the dragon vein was discovered, and then there was a great victory in Sarhu. Daijin’s morale and national destiny might be affected.

A turning point occurs here, and even if He Heli and his family are killed, they may not be able to save it.

Mao Wenlong became the nemesis of Dai Jin. It not only greatly consumed its own food and supplies, emptied its treasury and civilians, but more importantly, it damaged the morale of Dai Jin. This is the fundamental problem. Once it overwhelms the morale of Ming Dynasty

If it cannot recover and confronts the powerful Ming Dynasty with countless resources, the future will be absolutely hopeless.

While he was thinking deeply about how to reverse the situation, he didn't feel that Nurhaci stopped in front of him, and his forehead suddenly hit his back.

For bumping into the dragon body, this is a serious crime, and I have to apologize again and again.

Unexpectedly, Nurhachi ignored him at all. Instead, he stared at a corpse on the ground with his eyes tightly, and finally burst into tears.

On the ground, a corpse wearing armor was lying there. Not far from him, a white-haired head looked up at the sky with its eyes open. Although the eyes were as gray as a dead fish from the cold, there was something inside.

Contains determination and the calmness to die.

This is the body and head of He Heli, the five great ministers who founded the Kingdom of Jin Dynasty. Seeing this, he also breathed a sigh of relief. He Heli died here. He died here in battle, but his family was saved.

Looking at this old head, Nurhachi couldn't help but shed tears. He shed tears sadly. He slowly squatted down and covered the old man's eyes with his battle-hardened hands, hoping to melt the old man's eyes with his own warmth.

His frozen eyelids made him die in silence.

At this time, various scenes of fighting on the battlefield with this old brother and Heli began to unfold before his eyes.

He Heli, when he started his army with the Seven Great Hatreds, he followed him firmly in the wars in the north and south, made plans for himself, and blocked the bows, arrows and guns of the Ming army for himself. His body was riddled with scars. In the end, he suffered from too many scars.

, and had to take a back seat.

For the old man who followed him like this, Nurhachi also treated him favorably and hoped that he could live a long life. However, he did not expect that he would eventually die on the battlefield. All the original resentments were now reduced to nothing and turned into regret and peace.

Miss you.

It seems now that the old brothers who followed him either died on the battlefield or died of old age in bed, but there are not many left who are still with him. And among them, including He Heli, he has passed the three exams of the five ministers.

All died in the hands of Mao Wenlong.

After a long, long time, Nurhaci, who was about to freeze to death, was still disappointed that his wish had not been fulfilled. He let go of his hand, and Heli's eyes were still wide open, seeming to express his unwillingness.

With a long sigh, Nurhachi told Zhang Jingxing beside him: "Here, I will posthumously confer He Heli as Baylor, and let his son——"

E Yidu stepped forward and reminded: "All three of his sons died in the battle, and he only has a group of grandsons."

Nurhachi burst into tears again and continued with choked sobs: "His eldest grandson will inherit the throne, and will be issued an iron scroll of alchemy, and the Heli clan will not be sentenced to death unless they rebel."

Such an honor was unique since the founding of the People's Republic of China. He also knelt down in the sea of ​​corpses and kowtowed in gratitude on behalf of his elder brother.

After exiting this sea of ​​corpses and blood, Huang Taiji held an important meeting. Attending the meeting were the flag owners of the Zhenghuangxianhuang, Zhenglanxianlan, and Zhengbaiqixianred flags, as well as a group of high-ranking civil and military officials from Dajin.

Nurhachi said with a heavy heart: "Our 50,000 to 60,000 troops did not surround Mao Wenlong, and now we are engaged in a pursuit battle. This is something I did not expect, but the fault is not with you, but with my own arrangements."

This was tantamount to being the sinner of the Central Plains Emperor, which moved everyone, and they all knelt down on the ground to plead guilty.

Nurhachi waved his hand and asked everyone to sit down and continue his topic.

Our tens of thousands of troops followed Mao Wenlong and were controlled by him. During this period, we consumed countless amounts and greatly weakened the national power. At the same time, we did not provide support to Dudu in Zhenjiang, nor did we launch a campaign to confront the red flag.

Rescue is really about one thing and not the other.”

Everyone was silent together, really unable to judge whether the original decision was right or wrong.

"Now that we have turned into a pursuit battle, our 50,000 to 60,000 soldiers and 70,000 to 80,000 slaves are no longer necessary. In order to save consumption, I have now decided to disband the siege of Mao Wenlong, leaving Fu Yidu with

With my Zhenghuang flag, I will continue to pursue and encircle Mao Wenlong’s remnants of less than 000 soldiers." Then he looked at E Yidu: "Can you complete the mission?"

Zhenghuang Banner is fully equipped with 45 Niulu, totaling 15,000 soldiers, and they are all composed of the best from the elites drawn from each banner. After deducting the 5,000 who stayed in the new capital of Liaoyang, there are still 10,000

, there is absolutely no problem in dealing with Mao Wenlong, who has less than 3,000 men left, especially without the encumbrance of a large army, and it is easier to raise food and grass along the way. It is absolutely no problem to pursue and kill Mao Wenlong.

Er Yidu stood up firmly and answered: "If you don't capture Mao Wenlong alive, I will come to see him with his head raised."

Nurhachi sighed: "There is no need to raise your head to see me, just do things with your heart."

His subordinates wanted to guarantee military orders, but the superiors put forward such loose conditions. It can be seen that Nurhaci is really helpless towards Mao Wenlong now, and it also shows that he protects his beloved general E Yidu. This has explained several issues.

,——Don’t talk too much. If we can’t take down Mao Wenlong when the time comes, and you have issued a military order, what else can I do? Am I really going to kill you? That would really be self-destruction of the Great Wall.

It can be seen that Nurhaci has almost no confidence in taking down Mao Wenlong.

"Now, the other flags are all under the jurisdiction of the defense area. They are resting and recuperating while imposing a blockade on Mao Wenlong. As long as Mao Wenlong enters someone's jurisdiction, they will send troops, but they cannot consume the pursuit and save a lot of supplies. That is what we are doing now.

fundamental.”

Such an order and arrangement was actually rational. Although the encirclement and suppression of Mao Wenlong failed, looking at the overall situation, even if Mao Wenlong was popular here, a positive yellow flag was actually enough.

As for the other two battlefields, the victory or defeat is basically clear. In any case, in Zhenjiang where the Liao Army was restored, as long as Amin of Zhenglan Banner returns to the defense area, Mao Zhongming will never be reluctant to fight and will automatically retreat.

In this way, it means that the six banners belong to each jurisdiction, which solves the problem of soldiers' food and grass consumption.

Seeing everyone dispersed without mentioning the rescue of Zheng Hongqi, Yue Tuo knelt down and hugged his grandfather's thigh: "Mafa (meaning grandpa), what should my grandma do? Do you really give up on him?"

Yet?"

Touching the head of the most outstanding grandson of the third generation, Nurhachi said with confidence: "Although I only have one flag to chase Mao Wenlong, the return of each flag to local defense actually formed a larger, more reasonable, and more rigorous siege against him.

, he can't escape. As for your grandma, my son is Zheng Hongqi, I have a way to rescue him, you must firmly believe in this, definitely."

In this way, a fierce battle to encircle and suppress Mao Wenlong ended in an anticlimactic manner because Hou Jin could no longer consume food and grass. But in fact, the Zhenghuang Banner, which had elite soldiers and lost weight, put more pressure on Mao Wenlong. (Unfinished)
