Jinzhou is thousands of miles away from Huang Taiji's northern expedition.

In the city, the Jinzhou General Military Mansion, which was originally the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, has become the line of Dolgon, the prince of Heshuorui. Outside the gate, hundreds of energetic Bayala soldiers, each with swords, guns, and armor, stood on the square in front of the mansion.

On either side of the stone lion, a six-pounder cannon was erected, and the gun emplacements were built with huge sandbags, and the gunners and dozens of musketeers who acted as guards stood shy and folded beside the guns.

The officers of the two white flags went in and out of their respective armor and swords, and handled their own affairs. Although they were in the front of the enemy, the officers at all levels did not have the current tense atmosphere of the great enemy, on the contrary, they all looked relaxed. Some people were still smiling, as if they were waiting for something happy to come.

In the study, a furnace of high-grade ambergris slowly spewed a faint fragrance into the air, bursting the faint fragrance in the room.

The sour branch furniture is polished with a fine cloth by the servants, the chairs are covered with red brocade and gold cushions, and the marble-topped coffee table is filled with silver stilts and a few dried and fresh fruits exude an enticing aroma.

Li Peiting stretched out his hand to twist a few pine nuts, rubbed off the peel, and put them in his mouth to chew. "This pine nut is really good!"

"Second brother, don't tease the younger brother. This is a deserted place, and it has just experienced war, and the minions have barely prepared a little fruit, so don't be surprised by the second brother! “

Dolgon, on the other hand, looked sincerely apologetic, as if his men had neglected his guests.

"Fourteenth brother, where did you come from? You see, although these pine nuts and hazelnuts are common things in Liaodong, but these tangerines and oranges, lychees and other things, I am afraid that there are no such things in your starling's palace, right? “

"It made the second brother laugh. It's just borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, and the minions below have ventured to purchase them from the Guibao in Ningyuan City, which makes the second brother smile! ”

The two of them exchanged a few polite words. And that's where we get to the point.

"Second brother, Wu Keshan collected more than 10,000 Han women from various Mongolian tribes for the younger brother, and prepared to ration them to the younger brother's subordinates for the family. As the second brother said, those who have constant production have perseverance. Those who are not suitable for serving in the army can go to the tun to cultivate the fields, and those who are suitable for fighting in the army will naturally not dare to disobey orders when they have their families. It's just that. The settlement utensils, money and food of more than 10,000 households, as well as the goods that the younger brother promised to Wu Keshan, I hope that the second brother will help vigorously! ”

Although the small exchanges between Wu Keshan, the prince of Horqin, and the two white flags of the Dolgon brothers in private, were well covered and could be concealed from Huang Taiji's ears and eyes, the exchange of money and goods could not be concealed from Li Peiting's prosperity.

Let alone. Long Sheng bought cattle and sheep from the Horqin Mongol tribes, although on the surface it was directly controlled by Huang Taiji himself, and earned a large amount of grain from it to feed the army and maintain the huge consumption of iron smelting and mining. Privately, the Mongol tribes outside the border wall of Horqin Mongolia and Xuanda all followed the path of Dolgon, and traded with Long Shengxing with smuggled goods. Who made Dolgon's tap much less than Huang Taiji's? The Mongol princes are not fools, who have more and which has less, they will still vote with their feet.

So. When Dolgon offered Wu Keshan to exchange the Han Chinese women that his tribe had plundered over the past few years. When he married those newly coated clothes and started a family, Wu Keshan even agreed.

"Please rest assured, as long as there are some in the slave clan, I am afraid that Lord Rui will not look down on him!"

The arrival of more than 10,000 women added a lot of vitality to the two white flags of Dolgon, and many Han army coats were assigned wives by masters at all levels. Since then, he has settled down and started his business.

"I want to congratulate the fourteenth brother, more than 10,000 families, from now on, multiply, farming, grazing, or sending troops to herd horses. I want to come to these eight flags in the future. The most prosperous people are also the two white flags of the fourteenth brother and the fifteenth brother. ”

"Hey, hey! Thank you second brother for your praise! However, if it weren't for the help of the second brother, things in southern Liaoning would not have gone so smoothly. ”

The two guys who single-handedly planned the riot of prisoners of war in southern Liaoning behind their backs looked at each other and smiled, revealing their hideous and bloodthirsty teeth.

On that day, Huang Taiji also ordered someone to go to North Korea to blackmail women in order to appease the Ming army in southern Liaoning, and prepared to use it to marry these wrappers. Unexpectedly, Li Peiting secretly contacted his good grandson Wu Sangui, and dispatched sailors to intercept the boat transporting the woman on the sea.

After that, these more than 10,000 women were quietly sent to Ningyuan and Jinzhou, and entered the military camps of Wu Sangui and Dolgon respectively.

After that, the captive coolies in the mines and workshops in southern Liaoning took advantage of the situation to riot and escape, burning and looting along the way, which added some trouble to Huang Taiji's plan to restore the old view of southern Liaoning, and made this starling of Dolgon spend a lot of money and food in vain.

"The fourteenth brother gave those thousands of captives to Wu Sangui, that person had thousands of elite soldiers out of thin air, and his strength increased greatly, it was too late to thank the fourteenth brother, how could he be embarrassed with the fourteenth brother on the battlefield? You can rest assured that I will transport all kinds of materials you need from Tianjin and Denglai with great fanfare and deliver them to Wu Sangui's Ning Yuan army. As for whether Ning Yuanjun has stolen and sold ordnance and materials, it is not something that a businessman like me can manage! ”

"Thank you, second brother, for making it happen!"

Seeing that Li Peiting's words came to such an extent, Dolgon was naturally grateful again and again.

Cast it with peach and plum, and repay it with Qiong Yao. Naturally, Dolgon had no reason to refuse Li Peiting's request. What's more, the conditions proposed by the second son of the Li family are beneficial to him, to the two white flags and the Tashan system.

The first condition is to expand on the basis of the current Shishikou commercial station and wharf, in order to be able to dock more sea ships and reserve more goods.

"It's easy to do! Even if the second brother doesn't mention it, this king will bring it up with the second brother! How much labor will be needed, it will all be handed over to this king! Hengzhu's group of minions also have to eat at home, and the second brother has found them a good errand to eat to survive the spring famine! ”

The second condition is that the price of cotton and grey cloth imported from Shandong, Songjiang and other places in Liaodong will rise, and the price increase will be at least about 30%. According to Li Peiting's words, because the cotton and grey cloth themselves were smuggled out of the part to be transported to Nanzhong, the price naturally rose a lot. Third, all the cloth produced in the two white flag dyeing mills was exported to Mongolia and the Ming Dynasty. It is necessary to sign a price parity agreement with Longshengxing, abide by Longsheng's quota, and not sell more, nor sell less.

In addition, the quality of Liaodong's specialty products has declined recently, so the price should also be appropriately reduced.

The wool comes out of the sheep. Although Dorgon had never raised sheep, he still understood the truth. I think of those bright and beautiful cloths and silks dyed with red and blue flowers. Long's prevailing problems such as rising raw material prices, restricting shipment prices and sales areas are not a problem.

"Hengzhu, you just want real money and all kinds of valuables, these things, this king can trade with all kinds of local products you need when trading. It's a big deal, a cloth king wants Wu Keshan's herd of Mongolian Tartars and two cows! ”

"In addition, I suddenly remembered one thing, so many Korean women did not go to southern Liaoning to match with the Ming army, but ran to two white flags, if those who were cultivating the land for starlings in various parts of southern Liaoning knew, in case there was any more noise. Do you think starlings are very troublesome? ”

Dolgon also smiled knowingly: "Haha, the second brother is really high!" However, these clothed minions are dissatisfied, but they may not dare to rebel? ”

"Who said that if you want them to rebel, let them complain, and think that Starling, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, is far less trustworthy than you, the Rui prince? If the government really suppresses it, it's also the government's, isn't it? When the time comes, I'm afraid that these people will be the first to want you to become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. It's okay to send them a wife! ”

"Second brother, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait until that time!"

"How do you say something like that?"

Dorgon stood up. When he walked to the door, he looked around, and saw that the courtyard was full of his henchmen and minions, and the nearest one was three feet away, so he could never hear them talking indoors. Only then did he return to the study with confidence.

"Don't hide it from the second brother, after the Battle of Tashan. Among the starling's two yellow flags, quite a few people secretly took refuge in me. Therefore, although Starling marched north to Heilongjiang, I was able to get news in time about what happened before his army. The other day, he abandoned his baggage. The light horse rode north, but was led north by the Sauron barbarians for hundreds of miles, and ate more than 1,000 of his forwards in one bite! This is probably the biggest loss that Starling has suffered since he led the army! I heard that after the starling found out, he sprayed nosebleeds again! ”

Speaking of this, Dolgon's face was sly, and his eyes narrowed, "This king heard that those Sauron savages who originally only had wooden bows and sticks in their hands are fully clothed and armored, and their weapons, bows and knives are the same as those of my Qing Dynasty soldiers and horses. Many of the armors were simply made by me in the Qing Dynasty. For this matter, the emperor's starling brother was even more angry and ordered someone to investigate thoroughly. This king thought about it again and again, and it seems that he only lost a lot of armor after only a few battles in the customs. I don't know if this matter has anything to do with the second brother? ”

"It's just a matter of getting some scrap armor, knives and guns! This thing is not a rare thing in the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty, but it is extremely valuable and rare in the various departments of Sauron. It is inevitable that people below will be greedy for profit. Li Peiting lightly revealed the fact that he sold a large number of materials for the armor, knives and guns of the Qing army to the various departments of Sauron.

"Alas! It's a pity that the second brother didn't greet the king in advance, otherwise, the second brother could sell more armor and weapons to these Sauronians! ”

Dorgon made no secret of the regret in his tone. In his opinion, the Sauron people are Huang Taiji's enemies, but they are his own helpers. No matter what faction, any mountain, or any armed force, as long as it can block Huang Taiji, find trouble, and weaken his strength, he is happy to see it.

"It's not necessary, no matter how many weapons and armor there are, it depends on people. I'm thinking, our starling brother, how will this battle of the northern expedition to Heilongjiang end? ”

The two guys looked at each other and smiled, each of them silent.

"If it's a civil change, our starlings will only return with a bow and sword. At that time, the Qing Dynasty will be in charge of the Rui Wangye! Looking at the Qing Dynasty in front of him, apart from the fourteenth brother, who else has that strength and talent? I would like to congratulate Lord Rui on going one step further! At that time, the grass people's meager business, you have to ask Your Majesty to take more care of it! ”

"This is natural!"

A burst of laughter rang out from the study.

However, the development of events far exceeded the expectations of the two men.

The second Songhua River, which flows westward, refers to the section of the river that runs down from Tianchi to the mouth of the Sancha River in Songyuan Fuyu County. This river was once called the Duck River, the Mingtong River, and the Songwa River, until the Xuande period, it was changed to the name of the Songhua River, and this big river outlined a water system that runs through the east, west, north and south in the land of Liaodong.

Huang Taiji's fleet of carrying baggage was on this stretch of the river.

And along the river, hundreds of miles away on the north side of a section of the river. Hundreds of Hezhe and Xibe cavalrymen shouted wildly with the weapons in their hands proudly.

This land, known as Mulan and Bayan, is dotted with lakes of different sizes. However, the seemingly smooth surface of the lake is a swamp formed over thousands of years under many water surfaces, and outsiders can walk into it rashly. What awaits them is one word, death!

These Hezhe and Xibe people naturally know the geography of this land very well, and they are familiar with every plant and tree here. They are the masters of this place, the children of the land.

In the history of this land, countless battles have taken advantage of this geographical feature to the extreme, and the superior forces and technical conditions of the opponent have been wiped out. The ancestors of these Hezhe people and Xibe people took advantage of this terrain to make the Jin army have no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the earth. From the cold weapons of knives, guns, bows and arrows to the modern era of gunpowder and guns. These blisters, swamps, are also good helpers for all kinds of armed forces against opponents.

Since the end of the Qing Dynasty, Zhang Zuolin and Wu Junsheng, two marshals who came out of the green forest, every time they sent out a large army to suppress bandits, many locks would hide in these blisters and swamps, and use the familiar terrain to contend with the attacking army, until these colleagues who came to encircle and suppress could not afford to be exhausted, and the troops were withdrawn.

But. This kind of terrain also depends on what kind of bandit forces are encountered, when those bearded men with all kinds of banners arrived in 1946. When I met a guy named He Jinnian, this kind of terrain and geography became vulnerable in the face of the vast sea of the people's war.

Looking at the thousands of heads that appeared to be lakes on the surface, but were actually struggling in the thousand-year-old swamp, a Xibe leader proudly fiddled with the feathered arrows in the quiver behind his back, "How is it?" That's a good idea, right?! We didn't even need an arrow, we just let the horses carry us for dozens of miles, and we sent so many Liao thieves and horses into the swamp! ”

The leader of the Hezhe people next to him naturally didn't have a good time to say anything, "This is your hunting ground, according to the rules of our Saurons." Your hunting ground, the prey is naturally chosen by you first, not to mention that you have contributed merit in front of the big head. Head of Ecuador. ”

The Xibe head, known as Igador, used two thick fingers to pluck the bowstring of the well-made bronze-backed iron-tired bow behind his back, causing the bowstring to make two muffled "boom" sounds. He laughed twice with his big mouth open, "According to the report from the children below, there are about a dozen Niu Lu who were introduced into this demon's bath tub by them, and there are more than ten Niu Lu Guanxu alone. After a while, these people are silent, and we will row over to pack up our weapons and armor! These children of you and mine," Igador pointed to the hundreds of knights behind them, most of these sturdy men were not fully armoured, and only one cotton armor was considered well-armed, and all of them were armoured in animal skins. The weapons in his hands are also very simple, compared to the two yellow flag elite soldiers who are crying for help in the swamp and their voices are gradually weakening, and they are simply vulnerable.

Ecuador offered Bomu Bogol a plan to lure Huang Taiji's vanguard into a Jedi where well-equipped, well-trained, and disciplined regular troops could not use their strengths, taking advantage of the many swamps and lakes in the Songhua River valley.

Sure enough, an ambush battle wiped out Huang Taiji's three Niu Lu with yellow flags, nearly 1,3400 people, from Niu Lu Zhangjing to the house slaves carried by the officers, almost no one escaped the net. This battle immediately beat Huang Taiji to a rage. If he was beaten by the Nanyue Army, he would admit it, after all, this was not the first time that he suffered a loss at the hands of the Nanyue Army, and he lost his men and horses. Taking a step back, if these soldiers and horses were damaged in the hands of the Ming army in Liaodong, he would reluctantly swallow this bad breath, after all, those Ming troops were also well-equipped and well-armoured elites.

However, his invincible and intimidating forces from all sides and maintaining his supreme imperial position in the Qing Dynasty were actually suffered such a big loss by a group of Sauron savages who only knew brute force and were very lacking in armor and weapons.

Therefore, after learning that the three Niu Lu in front of him were besieged by thousands of Saurons and all of them were killed, Huang Taiji did not hesitate at all, and immediately dispatched several times the number of troops, and ordered a Meler Zhangjing to lead the team, so as to find this group of barbarians and annihilate them in one fell swoop!

After sending thousands of soldiers and horses out, Huang Taiji was not slacking off, and personally led more than 10,000 elite horsemen to gallop all the way!

His second wave of forwards, five days and five nights of sleepless riding horses, changing horses to chase thousands of miles. The elites with yellow flags have long since become decaying compared to their parents. Everyone is used to the life of fat chickens and ducks, although the true colors of Manchurian athletes are still there, but compared to their father and brother, it is far worse! What's more, the road has just thawed in spring, and it is muddy and difficult to walk all the way. One by one, they were miserable, but they didn't dare to complain, so they could only vent their inner anger on the war horse under their crotch.

There is no doubt that these thousands of people were lured into the swamp of Mulan and Bayan by the Saurons, and were quickly swallowed up by the swamp. (To be continued......)

PS: Cannon fodder Tartar, your character has appeared. Isn't it a good deal? Otherwise, I'll let you be hunted down by the yellow wolf all the time! Hehehe!
