Chapter 161 Explanation of the Nancha Troubles (37)
After listening to Gao Pingshi's words, Liu Xin sighed and said, "I suddenly feel now that the Holy Family is both your support and your shackles."
Gao pragmatic moved his eyes to the window and remained silent without answering.
When Liu Xin saw this, she thought to herself and said: "Because of the Holy Family, you can do many things that ordinary people dare not do, but also because of the Holy Family, you dare not do many things that ordinary people dare to do."
Gao Pragmatic still didn't answer, just silently watching the winter rain outside the window pattering on the water of Shichahai.
"But I think some of your worries are really unnecessary." Liu Xin looked at his back and curled her lips: "Just like this time, you are worried that because you accepted one of Ye He's princesses, the emperor will doubt your arm.
Turning your elbows outwards actually makes no sense."
Gao pragmatic finally turned his head slightly and asked: "Why?"
Liu Xin asked: "In the eyes of the emperor, who do you think is one of his own? Does the chieftain count as one of his own? Does a foreign vassal such as Tumote count as one of his own? Does a vassal vassal such as Ye He count as one of his own?"
Gao pragmatically replied: "I think in the emperor's eyes, chieftains are probably half of his own people, and Tumut is currently half of his own people. In Ye He's case... at most he is one-third of his own people."
"Okay, then let me ask you again." Liu Xin continued to ask: "After my wife married you, does the emperor still regard Huang's chieftain as an outsider?"
Gao Pragmatic was startled and said hesitantly: "It's not easy to compare, because I moved the Huang family chieftains to Annan as a whole, and now they even continue to be broken up."
Liu Xin shook her head and said: "Those are two different things, but it does not affect my question: If the emperor thinks that she is one of his own, then the Huang Chieftain is at least no threat in his eyes, right?"
Gao pragmatic frowned and said: "If you want to say that there is no threat, it counts as one of our own. That is indeed the case. I think the emperor is at least not worried that the Huang chieftain will rebel now."
"Wonderful, you see, if you marry Huang Zhiting, the emperor will not worry about the Huang family's rebellion. Then on the other hand, if you also accept Ye He's princess, will Ye He not rebel?" Liu Xinyi
He spread his hands and said, "At least I think the emperor would think so."
But Gao Pragmatic disagreed, shaking his head and saying: "The two things are obviously different. The biggest difference is that although the leader of the Huang family's chieftain is Jia Yue, Zhiting is the real talker of the Huang family. On the contrary,
Come and see, the people behind what Ye He said were Dongbeile Nalinbulu and Bu Zhai. Although Meng Gu Zhezhe has a special status in Ye He, he has no influence on Ye He's major events."
Liu Xin frowned and said, "A woman can be the chieftain, but not a Jurchen?"
"It seems impossible, at least I haven't seen it." Gao pragmatically replied.
Liu Xin thought for a while and asked: "But our Yehe tribe was formed by the Mongols who migrated there and mixed with the Jurchens. They should also retain some of the Mongolian customs."
Gao pragmatic asked: "You mean the heroine is the regent?"
"yes."
"Then it won't be Meng Guzhezhe's turn." Gao Pragmatic shook his head: "For example, Ye He, if Nalin Bulu and Bu Zhai suddenly die now, then the person who inherits their positions will be their sons. If
If there is no son, then the nephew will take over. If both the son and the nephew are too young, a 'regent' can indeed appear, but the candidate will be the head wife of both of them.
Of course, if the biological mother of the son who ascends the throne is not the official wife, it is also possible that due to some internal battles, he will eventually emerge from the position of concubine and become the regent. But in any case, this matter has nothing to do with Meng Guzhezhe's 'aunt'."
"How could this happen?" Liu Xin said a little confused: "A foreigner's surname can be a regent, but a member of the same family cannot be a regent?"
"There is something wrong with your understanding of foreign surnames and family names. Your position is probably still that of our time." Gao pragmatic shook his head and said: "Now it is the married daughters who throw away the water. It doesn't matter what the surnames of Nalin Bulu and Buzhai's wives are."
, she is a member of the Ye He family, and even her mother-in-law’s family would only think about getting some benefits at most, and would not think of stealing Ye He’s inheritance.”
It is true that modern thinking has affected Liu Xin's judgment. After hearing this, she understood and suddenly said: "Oh, that's right, just like after your wife marries you, she has to stand in your position to deal with matters related to the Huang family in southern Xinjiang.
He even offered to break up the Huang family's 'enfeoffment' to avoid being too strong in a certain area - am I right?"
Gao Pangshi smiled bitterly and said, "That's probably what I mean."
Liu Xin thought for a while and said: "In other words, because Meng Guzhezhe has no influence on Ye He, even if she is taken as a concubine by you, Ye He will still be able to move freely and will not suffer any consequences.
Jisui, right?"
Gao pragmatic nodded and said: "Yes, that's right. And she can only be a concubine. If Ye He really wants to do something, he won't care too much about her relationship. In other words, as far as the emperor is concerned, I accept it
Concubine Meng Guzhezhe has no positive impact on the overall situation, but has some negative impacts. For example, Ye He may rely on my name to dominate the Jurchens, which is a big deal in the eyes of the emperor."
Liu Xin was a little skeptical: "Ye He can dominate the Jurchens just based on your name and power? I'm afraid Nurhachi is not so easy to talk to."
"I know how powerful Nurhaci is, you know it, but the emperor may not know it." Gao Pragmatic shook his head and said: "In the emperor's view, the current situation is that Nurhaci is not as powerful as Ye He: Ye He has nearly 20,000 soldiers, and Nurhachi can't.
Seven thousand; Ye He has Beiguan in hand, and because of the decline of Hada, they are already the de facto commercial overlords of the North and South Passes.
If you want to say that there is something about Nurhachi that surpasses Ye He in the eyes of the emperor, it is probably only the official position. But is this thing meaningful to the emperor? No. The emperor can give him the official position immediately if he wants it. If he wants to take it away,
It can be removed immediately.”
Liu Xin frowned and said: "So, if you want to support Ye He, but you still laugh at the princess sent by Ye He, and the emperor feels that Ye He is already stronger than Nurhaci now, then he will think that you are doing it because of your support.
Is this what you mean by the abnormal stance resulting from taking a 'bribery'?"

Liu Xin thought about it and felt that Gao Pragmatic's words were not unreasonable, so she asked: "When did Nurhaci's strength surpass Ye He's in history?"
Gao pragmatically said: "Actually, it's hard to say when. I can only tell you that from a 'performance' point of view, Nurha Chi defeated Ye He in the 21st year of Wanli."
"In terms of performance?" Liu Xin understood and asked: "In that year, the two families went to war?"
"We are fighting. As the leader of the alliance, Ye He gathered nine coalition forces to attack Nurhaci." Gao pragmatically replied.
Liu Xin smiled: "It seems that Ye He suffered a loss in this battle."
"Not only was it a loss, the nine-unit coalition army was defeated, and Nurhaci shocked the Jurchens."
Liu Xin said in astonishment: "This year is already the winter of the fifteenth year of Wanli. In five or six years, Nurhachi was able to develop to defeat nine coalition forces? How was this done? Could it be that the trade center at that time had already transformed from the North and South Passes.
Transferred to Fushun Pass?"
Gao pragmatic shook his head and said: "Not yet, but before the war broke out, the situation was already in danger for Ye He. Nurhaci found that it was too difficult to directly compete with the South and North Passes, so he made a detour and sent troops to attack the Yalu River and Changbai Mountains.
This way, we can control the origin of many products, such as ginseng, mink skin, etc.
Naturally, Ye He couldn't bear this, because no matter how great the geographical advantage of the North and South Pass was, it would be useless if he could not receive the goods. Therefore, at first, the Haixi Jurchen Gebeile first planned to restrict Nurhachi by getting married, but he failed due to various reasons.
It works, of course, mainly because Nurhaci doesn’t want to be restricted.
If you are soft, then you will be tough. Subsequently, the Haixi tribes headed by Nalinbulu blackmailed Nurhaci several times, trying to force him to cede territory to limit the expansion of Jianzhou, but apparently they were sternly rejected by Nurhaci."
Liu Xin smiled: "Oh, we don't have to talk, so we have to fight."
"That's right." Gao pragmatic nodded and said: "At this time, in June of the 21st year of Wanli, the Ming army was fighting in Korea and had no time to deal with the Jurchens. The Jurchens could avenge themselves and complain.
Ye He saw that coercion and intimidation were ineffective, so he entangled Hada, Ula, and Hui and sent soldiers to rob Hubuqa Village in Jianzhou. After hearing the news, Nurhachi led his troops and pursued them to Furjiaqi Village in Hada Territory.
The Hada soldiers led by Meng Gebulu met.
In this battle, Nurhaci personally came to the rear, hoping to lead the enemy into an ambush. At this time, the pursuers were approaching, and Nurhaci shot an arrow into the belly of a pursuer's horse. But suddenly, the horse Nurhaci was riding was frightened and almost caused it to fall to the ground.
The cavalry took advantage of the situation and attacked Nurhaci. Fortunately, Nurhachi's general Anfei Yanggu appeared in time and killed the three men.
Nurhaci sat down and shot an arrow at Menggebulu's horse. Menggebulu fled on his subordinate's horse. So the battle of Fuljiaqi ended with Nurhaci's victory."
Liu Xin pursed her lips: "This is not the Battle of the Nine Parts. Let me guess... this is an appetizer?"
"Naturally, this is just an appetizer. Menggebulu can't defeat Nurhachi now, and it will be even less possible in five or six years." Gao Pragmatic sighed and continued: "About three months after this battle, with Yehebel
Nalinbulu and Buzhai are the leaders of the alliance, united with Hadabele Menggebulu, Ulabele Mantai and his brother Buzhantai, Huifa Beile Baiyindali, Mongolia Horqin Beile Mingan and Xibo and Guercha
, Changbai Mountain Jurchen Zhu Sheli, Neyin, a total of nine coalition forces of 30,000 people marched towards Jianzhou.
After Nurhaci learned about it, he laid out defensive fortifications such as rolling logs and stones according to the terrain and went to sleep. His wife, Fucha, thought he was confused because of fear and quickly pushed him awake. But Nurhaci said, 'People are afraid, even if they sleep
, I couldn’t fall asleep; I was afraid, how could I sleep soundly? I heard that Ye He’s soldiers were coming from three directions to invade, but because there was no timetable, I thought about it. Now that they have arrived, I feel at ease...’ After that, Nurhachi slept peacefully as before.”
Liu Xin couldn't help but laugh and said: "What Nurhaci said makes sense. I knew the other party was going to hit me, but he didn't take any action. I could only be vigilant all the time, and I was naturally nervous. When he really made a move, I just needed to show him off."
Just do the trick, but there is no need to be nervous...and then what?"
"Then the next day, Nurhachi sent Wu Likan to investigate and captured one of Ye He's detective horses. After interrogation, he learned that there were 30,000 invading enemies.
Nurhaci expanded a large territory at that time, but integration took time, and he was not always trustworthy, so he still only had about 10,000 troops. Three times his own strength made Jianzhou pale when he heard about it, but Nurhachi believed that
, although the opponent has many troops, but there are many leaders, and the coordination is chaotic, they can be defeated as long as one or two of their leaders are injured.
The nine coalition forces successively besieged Zaka City and Heizig City, but were unable to defeat them. They were also blocked by numerous obstacles and fortifications set up by the Jianzhou Army along the way. The first and last parts of the army were like several long snakes running to the foot of Gule Mountain.
The next day, Nurhachi led his troops and horses to set up a dangerous formation. Nalinbulu, Buzhai and other coalition forces came to besiege. Nurhaci also went to meet the enemy and temporarily contained the coalition vanguard.
Bu Zhai was angered by E Yidu's challenge, and he drove his horse to fight with his sword. However, this guy was so unlucky that his horse tripped over a crossbar, Bu Zhai fell to the ground, and Jianzhou soldiers took advantage of the opportunity to sit on him and kill him.
.
When Nalinbulu saw that his brother had died in battle, he was so angry that he fainted and fell to the ground. As a result, Ye He's soldiers fell into chaos. They collected the corpses in the village, rescued Nalinbulu and fled.
Seeing the two alliance leaders dying and escaping, other Baile and Taiji naturally lost their morale and retreated one after another. Horqin Bailemingan's horse got lost in the formation, and in panic, he actually rode a bareback horse and ran wildly.
The Jianzhou Army swarmed down from the mountains and took advantage of the situation to cover up the killing. The coalition forces were defeated miserably, and Ulabelle Mantai's brother Buzhantai was also captured alive. The Jianzhou Army pursued them all the way to the Huifabu territory more than a hundred miles away. By nightfall, Nurhaci
Withdraw your troops and return to the city."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Liu Xin shook her head when she heard this: "Bu Zhai is stupid and stupid. If his own military strength is at a disadvantage, going to fight in person can boost morale, in the hope that
He achieved a huge victory like a comeback. But he actually chose to take risks and go into battle despite his superior strength. This was because he was out of his mind.
At this moment, he should be just like you commanding the battle, sitting in the middle of the army with peace of mind and letting the generals below fight. If he wins, it is because he commanded it well. Even if he loses, it is because his subordinates or allies did not fight well.
But it’s none of his business as the leader of the alliance. But in the end, he went out to fight, not only risking his own life, but also implicating the entire coalition. This is the so-called success but failure."
Gao Pragmatic was too lazy to comment on Bu Zhai's performance in history. He just said: "This is how Nurhachi truly became famous in one battle. 'The military power was greatly shocked, and he was intimidated from far and near'. Ming Dynasty was busy fighting the Japanese at the moment, so he only
He was able to acquiesce in the Jurchens' self-invasion, and even promoted him to the left governor of Jianzhou and General Longhu in order to ensure peace in Liaodong. Nurhachi claimed to be the "Lord of Jianzhou Guards and Controlling the Yi People in the Jurchen Kingdom".
In the same year, Nurhachi used the remaining power of the victory at Gule Mountain to eliminate Nayin Road, which participated in the nine-part coalition. He ordered three generals, including E Yidu and Ga Gai, to lead troops to attack Fodo and Shancheng, where Nayin was stationed, and cut off Changsou on the road.
After stabilizing Sekesh, he took advantage of the situation and conquered the Zhusheli area, plus the Yalu River area he had conquered earlier. Nurhachi completely brought the Changbai Mountain Jurchens into his own rule.
It has been ten years since Nurhachi started his army. "Every tribe that lives around Manchuria will be defeated." Although the Jurchen tribes in Haixi have been defeated, they are still Nurhachi's only opponents in Jurchen. In terms of strength, prestige, etc., Nurhachi has already taken full advantage.
"
Liu Xin frowned and said: "According to what you said, it will take five or six years for Nurhachi to have such an advantage - I mean an advantage that even the emperor can see - and it will not be obvious before then. So you
It is very difficult to support Ye Heben, and it is even more inappropriate to take a concubine, Meng Gu Zhezhe?"
"yes."
Liu Xin shook her head and said: "No, since Huang Taiji is so powerful, I still think it's best to kill him. Keeping such a person will cause trouble for himself in the future."
Gao pragmatically said: "What's even more troublesome is that now Nurhachi has evidence of guilt brought to his door, but I want to continue to win over Shuerhaqi. This time I want to give Shuerhaqi some face. In addition, the court's financial situation is tight.
, Ming Dynasty will not attack Nurhaci now."
Liu Xin's eyes lit up and she said, "Can we use Nurhaci's evidence to explain this to the emperor?"
Gao Pragmatic was stunned: "Explain what?"
"Explain why you want to take Meng Guzhezhe as your concubine." Liu Xin said enthusiastically: "Nurhaci is obviously very ambitious, and Ye He has just received a great favor from the Ming Dynasty. In addition, once Ye He fully surrenders, he will also be able to control Liaoning in the future.
Chahar launches an attack - this is in line with the national policy of Eastern rule."
