Huang Taiji is a fat man. He feels uncomfortable after sitting for a long time. Now he feels uncomfortable even after standing for a while.
He left his seat and began to pace around the hall while explaining to Jirharang: "North Korea has always been unconvinced by Daikin. Regarding Daikin's request, not to mention that there are actual difficulties, even if there are no difficulties, it is not.
He would put the blame in every possible way and let Mang Gurtai go. With his temperament and the fact that he had a bet, he would not let North Korea go easily. The reason why he did not add the bet that the bet failed was to force Mang Gurtai to go.
He added that month's grain himself, otherwise he would think that I was posing a problem for him. He would add it himself, and he would not be able to do it without paying attention. In this way, North Korea would suffer a lot as a punishment for Dai Jin's disobedience.
It’s one of the purposes.”
Jierhalang was half a step behind Huang Taiji and walked with him. When he heard this, he couldn't help but ask: "What about the second purpose?"
"As the saying goes, things must turn against each other. Mang Gurtai oppressed North Korea too harshly, which is not good. To control a country, you must give it a big stick with one hand and some sweetness with the other. When Mang Gurtai comes back after collecting the grain, North Korea will
When the sky is angry and people are complaining, I will use gentle means to appease North Korea, which will naturally make them grateful to me and to Daikin, and no longer have half-hearted intentions. This is the second purpose."
After Huang Taiji explained here, he stopped, turned his head and looked at Jierhalang with a smile.
Jierhalang hurriedly flattered: "The Khan is really powerful, killing two birds with one stone, wonderful!"
In fact, Huang Taiji has another purpose that he has not stated, which is that a comparison between his behavior and Mang Gurtai's behavior can better reflect his ability to govern the country.
He happily accepted Jierhalang's flattery, and then told Jierhalang: "These are confidential matters. You are my confidant, and no one else can know about it. Do you understand?"
Jirharang nodded quickly and said: "Don't worry, Khan, it entered my left ear and has come out of my right ear."
After he finished speaking, he frowned and said in confusion: "Khan, isn't this a too big a bet? If Mang Gurtai had stronger troops, I'm afraid he would be even more arrogant."
After hearing this, Huang Taiji stopped smiling and started to walk back, while explaining: "I know, but this is a helpless move. Even if I don't take this as a bet, he will still shout when he recruits the Mongols in the future.
I have to accept a part of it. Unless I can remove his position of Heshuo Baylor, according to his seniority, I still have to give it to him."
In other words, Huang Taiji gave Mang Gurtai something that Mang Gurtai already had as a bet, and he actually lost nothing.
Jirharang nodded in sudden realization. The Great Khan's thoughts were so unpredictable that he didn't even know that Mang Gurtai was played to death.
After Huang Taiji said this, he felt that he had said enough, so he ordered: "Okay, you go."
He had to seize the time to discuss with those Han slaves about sending an envoy to Japan. Because he attached great importance to this matter and tried his best to make it come true.
Jirharang bowed before leaving the palace.
When Huang Taiji saw that all these people were gone, he immediately ordered to summon the Han slaves to come over.
Tong Yangxing, Fan Wencheng, Ning Wanwo, Ma Guangyuan and others entered the Chongzheng Hall to kowtow to Huang Taiji, and then stood on both sides, waiting for Huang Taiji's inquiry.
In the past few days, they had discussed solutions one by one, and Huang Taiji had adopted them one by one, making these traitors as excited as if they had been given blood.
They all knew what things Huang Taiji went to discuss with other Beile. One thing they knew better than those Beile was that when those things were completed, they would start to form the Han army.
By then, they will also be able to lead an army. In Daijin, military exploits are very important, and with an army, military exploits will naturally follow. Especially Tong Yangxing and Fan Wencheng, it seemed as if they could see their feet
, has paved a glorious avenue with golden light.
Huang Taiji looked at these minions and felt much better than when he saw his brothers just now.
He coughed and was about to speak when a sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the palace. Immediately, a dusty horse rushed into the palace, knelt down on the ground and reported: "Great Khan, Ning Jin's military situation."
Huang Taiji had stipulated that if there was an urgent military situation, one could directly break into the palace to report. Therefore, everyone was not surprised by this unexpected situation, but they were all paying attention to the news from Tan Ma.
"Say." Huang Taiji asked concisely and concisely to save time.
"Reporting to the Great Khan, Yuan Chonghuan, the former governor of Jiliao in the Ming Dynasty, was beheaded and passed on to Jiubian. Sun Chengzong took up the post of governor of Jiliao. In addition, the Ming Dynasty restored the post of governor of Liaodong, and Yuan Keli, the former governor of Denglai, took over and was stationed in Jinzhou.
"On the Guanning front line, there are obvious signs of Ming Dynasty dispatching troops and generals, but the specific situation is unknown." Tan Ma had already calmed his breathing and spoke out the information he had obtained in one breath.
Huang Taiji frowned when he heard this. Seeing that Tan Ma had finished reporting, he waved his hand to let him go down. Then he looked at the servants below and asked, "What do you think?"
The traitors below heard the news and were very surprised. They looked at each other, and then heard Huang Taiji ask. Tong Yangxing, the most senior official, came out and replied: "Great Khan, Sun Chengzong has been appointed as the governor of Jiliao.
It is not surprising that Yuan Keli was appointed governor of Liaodong."
"I know this. What I want to know is what do you think of this matter?" Huang Taiji was not satisfied with this answer and still asked.
"Great Khan, Yuan Keli has retired and returned to his hometown, and now he has taken up the post of governor of Liaodong. I believe that the Ming Dynasty may still attach great importance to the Ningjin front line as before. But what is different from before is that they may adjust their Liaodong strategy.
, switching from defense to offense." Tong Yangxing couldn't think clearly for a moment what the impact of the unexpected Yuan Keli's appointment as governor of Liaodong would be, so he could only speak vaguely, trying to fool him for a while.
Huang Taiji couldn't get the answer he wanted, so he turned to Fan Wencheng and asked him: "Fan Qing, what do you think?"
Fan Wencheng had more time to think than Tong Yangxing. At this time, when Huang Taiji asked him, he went out and replied: "I have the same idea as Commander Tong. The Ming Dynasty may want to stir up some things in Ningjin. There are several reasons."
two."
Fan Wencheng's answer was much more organized than Tong Yangxing's. Huang Taiji nodded and said, "Go on."
"First, the capital of the Ming Dynasty was plundered and plundered by our country, Dajin, as if it were a deserted territory. The domestic pressure must be great. Even if the steady Sun Chengzong becomes the governor of Jiliao, he will definitely put on a show
The attitude of attacking my Daikin, or simply being really good at attacking."
Fan Wencheng bowed his head and answered, and his words were reasonable and well-founded, which made several traitors beside him nod their heads.
"Secondly, during his tenure as the governor of Denglai, Yuan Keli often instigated generals of Dajin to rebel against us and attack our city of Dajin. This person was extremely aggressive. It can be seen that the Ming Dynasty's strategy on the Ningjin front line is most likely to be
Seeking change while maintaining stability, this is the conclusion inferred from the personalities and ways of doing things of Sun Chengzong and Yuan Keli. A brief opinion for my master's reference."
After hearing this, Huang Taiji nodded repeatedly and praised, "Fan Qing's words make sense. How should I, Daijin, respond to this?"
Tong Yangxing heard Huang Taiji praising Fan Wencheng and comparing himself to him, and he couldn't help feeling a little jealous.
Fan Wencheng didn't know that his performance aroused Tong Yangxing's jealousy, so he still replied respectfully to Huang Taiji: "Master, I think I, Dajin, need to take the following two measures: First, station reliable generals to garrison Yixian, Beizhen, and Panshan.
, to prevent being instigated by Yuan Keri to rebel; secondly, send more detective horses to the Ningjin front line to spy on the possible strategies of the Ming Dynasty before responding. When necessary, station a certain amount of troops on the front line to prevent the response from being insufficient."
"Yes, that's what I mean. I have decided to send Dorgon and Duduo each with three thousand troops to garrison. If the Ming army comes in force, I will conquer it myself." Huang Taiji stood up and announced.
"My master is wise." Several traitors complimented him together.
But Huang Taiji did not show any joy, and said with a little worry, "I haven't decided yet who to send to the capital of the Ming Dynasty to bribe officials to put pressure on the front line for me."
In the past, Fan Yongdou and others were asked to do errands for this matter. They spent some money on the censors of the Ming Dynasty and said bad things about the frontline generals. The internal strife caused by this would make those generals have no intention of making meritorious deeds and only wanted to get over it.
Several traitors knew that this life was very dangerous, so they all remained silent and did not dare to answer.
When Huang Taiji saw it, he felt unhappy and directly called him by name: "Ning Wan, I think you can do it, why don't you go there. As long as you can influence the generals of the border army, I will remember you for your great contribution. I have an idea,
In the future, the Eight Banners of the Han Army will be established, and you will be given the command of one banner at that time."
Ning Wan and I looked sad at first, but when I heard the conditions proposed by Huang Taiji, I was immediately overjoyed and said quickly: "Master has a destiny, and the slave will go up to the mountain of swords or go down to the frying pan, no matter what."
After he finished speaking, his smile immediately disappeared and he said helplessly: "Great Khan, where did this slave go to the capital of the Ming Dynasty?"
