Chapter 661 Ao Bai's Spring
When the North Korean king Ren Zu concentrated all his financial and material resources to form a new North Korean army.
Far away from the Later Jin Kingdom, Ao Bai, the first warrior of the Later Jin Kingdom, was reporting to Huang Taiji the specific reasons for the failure of this operation with a serious face.
When Huang Taiji heard that North Korea, which had always been bullied by him, formed a firearm unit specifically targeting cavalry with the help of the Tiger and Leopard Army, his facial expression, which had just become calm, became solemn at this moment.
At this time, Huang Taiji's thoughts were the same as Ao Bai at the time.
In addition to being shocked, the first thing that came to mind was that after the firearms unit was formed, it might bring great harm to the Later Jin Dynasty...
Just when Ao Bai looked at Huang Tai Chi with a guilty face and thought that Huang Tai Chi must have been angry because of his failure. He didn't know what to say, Huang Tai Chi's voice suddenly reached Ao Bai's ear.
What made Ao Bai excited and thankful that Huang Taiji's next words were not only without any anger or dissatisfaction, but were filled with relief...
"General Ao, you did a good job... Although you failed to eliminate this Tiger and Leopard Army on the battlefield. However, after you understand the purpose of the Tiger and Leopard Army stationed in North Korea, you immediately thought of eliminating this Tiger and Leopard Army and preventing North Korea from forming a firearm unit is enough to prove that you, Ao Bai, is not only the number one warrior of the Later Jin Dynasty, but also a brave and resourceful general of the Later Jin Dynasty..."
"Especially when you know that you are defeated by the Tiger and Leopard Army, you voluntarily give up your supplies and war horses, lead the remaining troops to withdraw from the Later Jin Dynasty, and preserve your limited troops. It further proves that you are brave and resourceful..."
As a former nomadic nation, the powerful generals of the Later Jin Dynasty can definitely be said to be a big catch.
However, this is just a powerful general, with only a brave man, but without any strategy.
For such people, no matter how capable they are, they can only serve as low-level officers in the army and attack and kill enemies on the battlefield.
As for the so-called good generals in Huang Taiji's mind, they can be described in just a few words.
This leads to why Huang Tai Chi, who was a great khan, attached so much importance to the Han people who were inferior to those in the Later Jin Dynasty.
Without enough good generals, Huang Taiji had to let some powerful generals come out to command the troops. In order to avoid these powerful generals not being able to command operations, they could only select some very strategic Han people and give these powerful generals to serve as military advisors.
Therefore, when Huang Taiji saw that some of the first warriors in the Later Jin Dynasty called Ao Bai not only bravely, but also had strategy and a view of the overall situation.
The unhappiness that caused to me by more than a thousand soldiers who died in battle disappeared immediately...
As a overlord in troubled times, Huang Taiji knew very well that talents were important to the Later Jin Dynasty.
Just before Ao Bai could react from the surprise that Huang Tai Chi brought to him, Huang Tai Chi's voice came to his ears again...
"General Ao. Since you have seen the huge threat that North Korea may have caused to me, Later Jin after forming a firearm force... Then, do you think. How should I, Later Jin, remove this threat..."
Ao Bai answered this question that he had already thought about on the road without thinking about it...
"Khan, the slave thinks that we should send troops to North Korea immediately to prevent North Korea from forming a firearm force..."
"Tell me the specific reason why you did this..." Huang Taiji asked in a deep voice...
"There are two reasons..." After a brief period of Chen Si, Ao Bai answered firmly...
"First. After the Tiger and Leopard Army implemented an economic blockade on our Later Jin, with the strong military strength of the Tiger and Leopard Army, all borders to the south of our Later Jin will be completely blocked by the Later Jin... In addition, the north and west are blocked by mountains and cold. The only channel we can contact with the outside world is the only North Korea in the east... So, no matter what, we cannot threaten North Korea in the east and trap our Later Jin to death outside the pass..."
"Secondly, North Korea has just experienced wars. Even with the help of the Tiger and Leopard Army, its overall strength is very weak. Therefore, only by launching a full-scale attack on North Korea now can we take down North Korea at the minimum price..." Of course, during the process of sending troops to North Korea, we can also obtain various necessary supplies from the Later Jin Dynasty from North Korea..."
"The most important thing is sea salt. If I take down North Korea, I will have the coast. With the coast, I will be able to cook salt by myself. At that time, the salt wasteland I face in the Later Jin will be completely lifted..."
"Not only that, after taking South Korea and having the coastline, I, Later Jin, will also gain an unprecedented benefit, trade with the Portuguese through the sea, and buy muskets and artillery with more powerful crisis from these Portuguese..."
After Ao Bai finished speaking, Huang Taiji fell into Chen Si directly.
After some thought, he shouted: "Yes, General Ao, you analyzed it very well and was very thorough... Now it seems that for the future of the Later Jin Dynasty, I must have this soldier from the Later Jin Dynasty..."
Thinking of this, Huang Taiji's eyes quickly shot out two rays of light.
Staring at Ao Bai, he continued to ask...
"General Ao, if Ben Khan tells you that the battle to send troops to Korea will be commanded by you... How many cavalry do you think I, Later Jin, need to mobilize to take down South Korea..."
When Ao Bai heard this news, his first reaction was that he was going to develop.
However, under Huang Taiji's clever eyes, he still covered up the surprise that suddenly emerged in his heart at the first time.
Then, he looked at himself in Huang Taiji's eyes and replied: "Khan, since the Tiger and Leopard Army has already stationed troops in North Korea and has helped North Korea form a firearm unit. Then, North Korea must have been controlled by the Tiger and Leopard Army at this time..."
"Under this situation, if I want to take North Korea, I, the Later Jin Dynasty, must be very quick. Before the Tiger and Leopard Army respond, I will not give the Tiger and Leopard Army any chance to react..."
"Thus, we can only dispatch cavalry that can carry out long-distance raids..."
"If North Korea did not garrison the Tiger and Leopard Army, with the remaining 20,000 remaining soldiers in North Korea, the slave only needs 5,000 iron cavalry to eat him and take down the entire South Korea... However, after hundreds of Tiger and Leopard Army garrisons, the slave would not be able to capture the entire South Korea with 5,000 iron cavalry... However, as long as you give the slave two thousand iron cavalry, the slave would have confidence and take down him with the shortest time and the minimum price..."
At this time, Huang Taiji spoke: "Although my strength in the Later Jin Dynasty is not as good as before... but seven thousand iron cavalry can still be used. So, I decided to give you seven thousand iron cavalry and send troops to Korea..."
