Chapter 698: Jianlu’s Helplessness

Besides, after Dorgon led his army to escape from the Haizhou area, they went straight to Shengjing, the capital of Jianlu.

As soon as he arrived in Shengjing, he hurried to see Huang Taiji.

On the way, he had already thought of his words and prepared to respond to Huang Taiji's questioning.

Unexpectedly, Huang Taiji fell ill. When he heard that he had returned from Haizhou, he leaned on the dragon bed to receive him.

Several other slave chiefs were also there, and they had obviously been meeting to discuss matters before Dorgon arrived.

Dorgon saw Huang Taiji and reported: "Great Khan, Marquis Zhongxing of the Ming Dynasty led another 10,000 troops to Haizhou. The catapults are no match for the Ming army's Hongyi artillery. Moreover, the close combat capabilities of those musketeers

Very strong, my brother lost a hundred Baya soldiers but could do nothing to them."

When Azig heard this, he jumped out first and confirmed to Dorgon with a full face of doubt: "What, you said that the Baya soldiers and the Ming army musketeers fought in close combat and didn't win?"

Duduo didn't believe it either. If Dorgon hadn't spoken, he would have jumped out to question it before Azig did.

Dorgon saw Huang Taiji looking at him, and immediately replied to Azig: "That's exactly what happened. Covered by chariots, he managed to get close to the Ming army musketeers. But he was shot to death by their strange muskets.

After more than half of it, the opponent formed a small formation of three to fight in close combat, which was very powerful."

"I think you made it up to escape the blame for defeat. How could this happen?" Azige didn't believe it and guessed in a weird way.

When Duduo heard this, although he was also suspicious, he was not happy when Azig said this about Dorgon. He jumped out and retorted to Azig: "Keep your mouth clean. Haven't you ever eaten that Ming Dynasty?"

The army suffered a loss? I don’t know who it was, but when it was clear that they wanted to completely annihilate the Denglai Ming army, they opened a loophole, causing Dai Jin to fall short."

When Azig heard this, he became angry and immediately said to Duduo: "Didn't you see the Ming army's fierce artillery fire? Do you have eyes?"

"You're the only one who's cowardly..."

Before Duduo could start scolding each other, Huang Taiji slapped the edge of the bed and shouted loudly: "I'm not dead yet, and the Ming army hasn't attacked yet, and my family has started to quarrel?"

Dorgon seemed to be an outsider at this time, watching with cold eyes. He saw that Huang Taiji's hair was almost half white, and his expression was exhausted. But now when he was angry, he still had a power.

When Duduo and Azig saw Huang Taiji getting angry, they both looked at each other angrily and said nothing.

Seeing that the situation was rather embarrassing, Jierhalang came to the rescue and said: "When I was at Niutugang, I also encountered a counterattack by the Ming army. Although I couldn't see clearly at night, judging from the result, the close combat capabilities of the Ming army were evident.

Definitely not low.”

Ji'erharang is usually fair and stable, at least on the surface. When he said this, Huang Taiji turned his head and looked at him for a while, then suddenly sighed and said: "This Ming army is Vietnam."

It’s getting harder and harder to deal with!”

Several slave chiefs, whether it was the grumpy Duduo, the brainless Azig, the steady Jierhalang, or the deep-seated Dorgon, all felt deeply. Therefore, no one spoke.

.

After a while, Huang Taiji raised his head, looked at Dorgon and said, "You just said that there are 10,000 Ming troops, are they all that firearms unit?"

Dorgon hesitated for a while, and finally decided to tell the truth: "There are about more than 5,000 firearms troops. The other Ming troops are on the boat. It's not clear whether they are firearms troops."

Huang Taiji was silent for a while after hearing this. Dajin lost one soldier and had to think of ways to make up for it. But the Ming army lost thousands of soldiers, but they only needed to return to the pass to fully replenish their troops.

The national power of the Jin Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty are really incomparable!

Huang Taiji thought of this and sighed slightly. Then he raised his head and glanced around the slave chiefs before saying, "What good ideas do you have about Haizhou or the Ming Army's firearms unit?"

Huang Taiji himself tried many methods, including peace talks, but to no avail. In desperation, he had to seek their opinions again.

At this time, he missed those Han ministers very much. When encountering difficulties in the past, those Han ministers had the most and most useful ideas.

As expected by Huang Taiji, no one answered, they all stayed motionless like clay Bodhisattvas.

"I'm tired. Let's do this for today. We'll discuss the Haizhou matter tomorrow." Huang Taiji said with a little lack of interest.

After hearing this, several slave chiefs said goodbye and left.

Duduo followed Dorgon to his house. As soon as the two parties sat down, Duduo couldn't wait to ask: "Brother, is the Ming army really that powerful?"

Dorgon glanced at Duduo angrily, and asked slightly angrily: "You think I like to lose battles!"

After hearing this, Duduo was completely convinced. He was silent for a while, and said with a hint of uneasiness: "Brother, this Ming army's long-range firearms are powerful, and now they are so strong in close combat, and the number of people is getting larger and larger. So

Go down, what should I do next, Daikin?"

Once the Ming Dynasty's comprehensive national strength was unleashed, even people like Duduo felt strong pressure.

Dorgon didn't answer. He grabbed the teapot brought by his servant and drank directly from the spout.

He drank heavily, and the tea flowed down the corners of his mouth. He didn't care at all, thinking about Dodo's problem in his mind.

After finishing the drink, Dorgon slammed the teapot in his hand to the ground, and it broke into countless pieces with a "clang" sound.

Duduo was startled when he saw it, not knowing what Dorgon was doing.

The servants outside the door heard the commotion and rushed in, fearing that something might happen.

When Dorgon saw it, he shouted loudly: "Get out of here, get away from me, get out of here!"

The servants didn't know why Dorgon was angry, so they had no choice but to roll away obediently, not even daring to clean up the broken pieces of the teapot on the ground.

In the past, Dorgon was bullied by the four Baylors. Fortunately, he knew how to be flexible and tolerated it.

Seeing Huang Taiji seize the power alone and start to deal with the other three Baylors, Dorgon made up his mind to become an oriole.

When Huang Taiji led Dai Jin to achieve glory one after another, he was studying in secret, waiting for the day when he would make his mark.

But unexpectedly, in just over a year, the three Baylors went to see their father Khan first, and Dajin encountered setbacks one after another.

If this was just Huang Taiji's problem, then Dorgon would wake up laughing in his dreams. But in fact, this is the problem of the Kingdom of Jin. Even if it were Dorgon himself, he would be unable to do anything.

That deep feeling of powerlessness made him suddenly feel that even if one day he could seize power from Huang Taiji, it would only be to clean up the mess.

The failure of his expectations made him completely vent his depression.

But Daikin's dilemma still lies here. He has already seen that Huang Taiji is afraid that there is no solution, and it is simply because Guizhou Donkey is at his wits' end.

Thinking of the Ming Dynasty's reply to the peace talks, Dorgon gritted his teeth secretly. If he really came to the point of no where to go, no wonder he was ruthless for the sake of Daijin's future.
