Nurhachi's heavy tone shocked the hearts of all the people in the palace.

It can be seen that the Great Khan is extremely wary of the banner erected by Shulhaqi and his son in the black tree.

Although there are only two or three thousand households attached to Shuerhaqi and his son, less than 10,000 households, you must know that when he first fled to Heiluomu a few months ago, he could only rely on the protection of the Great Zhou Army of Kaiyuan Wei, but three or five hundred households of his own cronies have suddenly increased to more than two thousand, which is shocking from this momentum.

"Great Khan, it is really annoying that Shulhaqi erected the banner of the commander of the right guard of Jianzhou in Heitumu, but I am afraid that his momentum will not be sustainable." An Feiyangu couldn't help but salute, and then said: "You can see that the peasant households attached to him are basically fugitive slaves and savages who fled from the wilderness in various places after he just erected the banner, but this kind of number is limited after all, you see that now ten households may not be able to escape to his rule in ten days and half a month, and the Great Zhou also strictly prohibits Han people from going to his territory to open up wasteland, so he is like this." ”

"Yes, two or three thousand households, and most of them are mainly old and weak women and children, and it is already the limit that there can be a thousand soldiers who can collect and draw Ding, and most of them are untrained, lack horses and armor, which is not enough to threaten us, the only thing to worry about is the Kaiyuan Wei behind them, that Zhao Shujiao is said to have surrendered to the Governor of Jiliao, and although Shuerhaqi was a chess piece that Li Chengliang specially helped us out at that time, but Feng Tang used it very easily, and now he is even more vigorously supporting, I estimate that Zhao Shujiao must have received a secret order from Feng Tang to absolutely guarantee the safety of Shuerhaqi's headquarters, otherwise it is difficult to explain that Kaiyuan Wei would build a ,......fortress in Heitumu in the face of heavy snow," He Heli also interjected.

"Not only that, once Shuerhaqi and this fortress are established, it will undoubtedly form an echo of the Ula Ministry, they are not far away, if Da Zhou continues to increase troops here, if we want to exterminate the Ula Department in the future, we will have to guard against reinforcements from the Black Puller's side." Ampheyangu further added.

Kaiyuanwei suddenly established a fortress in Heitumu, which greatly shook the Jianzhou Jurchens, which was the first time in decades.

For decades, the outside of the Guanxi has been the continuous contraction of the Great Zhou, such as the abandonment of the Kuandian Six Forts, but now the Great Zhou has built a fortress in Hei Tu Mu, although the scale of this fort is far from being comparable with the Kuandian Six Forts, but this is undoubtedly an extremely dangerous trend.

This is the first time in recent decades that the Great Zhou has set up a new fortress outside the border wall, although the black tree is under the control of Shulhaqi, but with the little power of Shulhaqi, Nurhachi can wipe it out overnight, but now if the Great Zhou builds a fortress there, it will be horns with Shuerhaqi, and then form a triangle with Tieling, the important town of Kaiyuan Wei in the back, which will become a nail that is difficult to pull out.

Nurhachi's brows were deep, and he understood what the people below said, but what he wanted was how to deal with it, not how to analyze the situation.

"Then we will let this fortress of the Great Zhou be built?" Nurhachi felt more and more anxious, "Eyidu, you say. ”

Since the new governor of Jiliao took office, a series of means have made his originally smooth strategy plan difficult.

The recurrence of the Korqin people, the threat of the Chahars, the blatant provocation of the Yehbu, and the rebellion of Shulhaqi led to the ensuing of these incidents, which overwhelmed Nurhachi and could not find a better way to deal with it.

Niu Colu Eyidu is undoubtedly the most trusted general of Nurhachi at the moment, not only is Nurhachi's calm and sophisticated military experience very satisfying, but also E's generosity, generosity, and almost selflessness, so Nurhachi has always trusted him.

It's just that as Eyidu is getting older and his health is not as good as before, he basically no longer participates in the war, but is more responsible for assisting Nurhachi in internal affairs.

"Great Khan, I'm afraid we don't have much better strategy to deal with it in a short period of time, unless we immediately start a formal war with Da Zhou, but we are not fully prepared for this now, and our strength is not enough."

Eyidu actually understands that Nurhachi doesn't want to tear his face with Da Zhou immediately, and the current Jianzhou Jurchen doesn't have this strength.

"So what do we do?" Nurhachi calmed down and calmed down, it didn't help to be anxious, and Nurhachi still understood this.

"I thought we had to figure out what our biggest weakness was before we could do things in a targeted manner."

Eyidu is very calm, although he no longer participates in the war, but after Eyidu focuses more on internal affairs, he can see more deeply about the weaknesses and shortcomings of the Jianzhou Jurchens.

The silence in the hall became more and more silent, and everyone knew that Eyidu's attitude often represented the Great Khan, and perhaps even the Great Khan's orders.

"Our biggest problem is the lack of population, the lack of population means that there are not enough soldiers, there are not enough farmers to help us cultivate and reclaim the famine, and there are not enough craftsmen to build iron weapons and armor, which will lead to a series of problems, insufficient collection of food and forage, no grazing horses and sheep for us, no one to make and repair armor and weapons for us, in fact, the main purpose of our desire to take down the Ula Department is not only to better face the Jurchens of the East China Sea, but also to have tens of thousands of households in the Ula Department that can be included in the population under our command, It can greatly enrich our Jianzhou Jurchens. ”

Nurhachi admires Eyedu's ability to sort things out in an orderly manner, and a matter is always convincing from analysis to inference.

"Now although the Ula Department is still in front of us leading to the East China Sea Jurchens, but the strength of the Ula Department has been greatly damaged, and there is not much spare strength to interfere with our efforts to appease the East China Sea Jurchen Tribes, a few days ago I was ordered by the Great Khan to go to appease the Wuji Department, and I also received some effects,......"

"......, the distribution of the Wuji is too scattered, there are twenty or thirty departments, and there have been four or five southern departments that have expressed their willingness to surrender to the Great Khan and provide soldiers for the Great Khan, of course, from armor to weapons, we need to bear it, and at the same time, we also need to provide iron, salt, cloth and other materials for the ministry, and these materials are not enough for us now, and we still need to exchange them from the Great Zhou, so from the current point of view, we can't completely fight with the Great Zhou."

This is also the biggest problem of the Jurchens in Jianzhou now, there is no population, food is insufficient, and it is difficult to make up for the loss of soldiers, but the population can only be obtained through conquest, but now the Ula Department and the Yehe Department can no longer be solved by war, Shuerhaqi is still digging the foot of the wall, and the Korqin people are frightened by the Great Zhou and the Chahar people, and the situation is suddenly reversed, which makes Nurhachi extremely headache.

"Then what should we do now, Eyidu, don't sell it, talk about it!" Chu Ying was very dissatisfied with this old guy's reliance on the old and selling the old, and often pretended to be a ghost in front of his father Khan, feeling that he couldn't do without him.

He didn't move, just glanced at the other party coldly.

Chu Ying is the eldest son of the Great Khan, and he can't tear his face with him for the time being, but Eyi also knows that An Feiyangu, Fei Yingdong, He Heli and others are extremely dissatisfied with Chu Ying, thinking that he is rude and rude, and his personality is rigid and manic, and he is not suitable to take over the throne.

It's just that now that the Shulhaqi rebellion has just happened, it is really not easy for the Jianzhou Jurchens to have internal strife, and the Great Khan is still in good health, so he can't say that he can come up now, ride a donkey and read the record book - let's see.

"Chu Ying, don't be impatient, and listen to everything." Nurhachi first reprimanded Chu Ying.

Eyi nodded, "In addition to the population problem, the situation around our Jianzhou Jurchen has changed, it turns out that the Great Zhou side basically doesn't ask too much about things outside the side wall, or at most it is verbal or edict to reprimand, but we have done it, even Li Chengliang is helpless, like the Huifa Department and the Hada Department are the best examples, but after the new Jiliao Governor came, there were some changes, not only threatened to send troops, but also put on a posture, Zhao Shujiao and Juniper both acted as lackeys,......"

"Now this governor has not only provided a large number of supplies to the Yeh and Chahar people, but also Shulhaqi and the Ula have received some assistance, and we have to get these things from the Great Zhou, not only to exchange, but also to be repeatedly restricted, so this situation is very bad and needs to be improved."

A year ago, the situation was very good, and a year later, it was suddenly reversed, which can not help but make people feel some doubts in their hearts, and the current Jianzhou Jurchen is far from the point of dominating the border.

"Eyidu, then we also have to change these situations from two aspects, on the one hand, we must continue to obtain population, and on the other hand, we must change the surrounding situation, but this is closely related to Da Zhou, and it is not easy to do." Dai Shan couldn't help but interject.

"It's really not easy to do, but if it's not good, you have to do it, you have to try to do it, otherwise you have to sit back and wait?" Eyi nodded.

"Eyidu, tell me how we do it." Nurhachi saw that the hearts of all the generals in the palace were gradually unified, so he gave a signal to Eyidu.

"First, the replenishment of the population, on the one hand, continue to send envoys to the Jurchens of the East China Sea to lobby and persuade, of course, to give them benefits, these savages only value salt and iron cloth tea, these we have to find a way to exchange more from the Great Zhou, but we can do it; On the other hand, please ask the Great Khan to give an order to recruit and attract Han people to our side to reclaim the famine, and we can give them better treatment conditions, otherwise these people will not come to ,......."

"Second, handle the relationship with the surrounding areas, for the Horqin people, we must continue to woo, marriage is the best way; For the Chahars, Lin Dan Khan is growing up, I think there must be some ideas, we can find a way to form an alliance with them, destroy their current peaceful relationship with the Great Zhou, this I think is very promising, it is said that Lin Dan Khan has always been interested in restoring the glory of his golden family at its peak, this is a good thing for us, once the Chahar people go west and south, we will support him and help him,......"

"......, it is still an unswerving war against the Yehe Department and the Ula Department, but the war I am talking about is not a full-scale war, but a small-scale attack, forcing them to have no more energy to stabilize the situation, especially the Ula Department, after several years of war, they have been quite difficult, as long as we start a war thoroughly, presumably Da Zhou will not get involved too deeply, it is ,......"

Nurhachi was very satisfied, this was something he and Eyi had already discussed, but Eyi had made a comprehensive improvement and extension, and the whole strategy was more comprehensive and meticulous, and even Chu Ying nodded again and again.

"For the Great Zhou, we can show weakness and maintain good relations, so that we can expand trade, exchange our medicinal herbs, furs, and horses for their salt and iron cloth tea, and at the same time we can also buy their officials and generals,......"

"Third, it is to ,...... to the new governor of Jiliao"

Before Eyidu's voice fell, Nurhachi interrupted the other party, "Eyidu, let's discuss this matter again, so we won't talk about it here." ”
