639 Alliance
In the Shenyang Imperial Palace, Huang Taiji seemed to be a little uneasy, and he asked his personal guard commander Ao Bai: "Is there any news for the spies sent to Naturalization City?" ”
"Back to the master, there is no news yet." Ao Bai shook his head and replied.
Huang Taiji listened, frowned, and had something in his heart. After a long while, he suddenly made up his mind and immediately sent a message to Fan Wencheng to meet him.
"Slave Fan Wencheng knock long live, long live, long live!" Fan Wencheng had already entered the temple gate, walked a few steps quickly, and then flicked his sleeves meticulously, knelt down on his knees, his head fell to the ground, his buttocks were cocked high, and he said loudly and loudly.
Huang Taiji waved his hand and said, "Fan Qing is flat!" ”
After Fan Wencheng stood respectfully, he said to Fan Wencheng: "It stands to reason that the scouts sent to Naturalization City should be rewarded, but I have not received any news, so I have no way of knowing the situation in Naturalization City. Qing is from a Han background, can you understand what the Han people will do after occupying the Hetao? ”
Huang Taiji himself has guesses, but he also believes in Fan Wencheng, so he wants to see if the two have the same opinion.
When Fan Wencheng heard this, he thought about it for a while, and then hurriedly replied respectfully: "Long live Lord, the slave thinks that the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom is young and must be keen on expanding the territory. Moreover, the Yellow River has nine songs, and only one set of riches. Since the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom has taken the Hetao, he definitely won't want to spit it out! ”
When Huang Taiji heard this, he immediately nodded and praised: "I think the same way. In this case, I won't wait for the horse to return, no matter who occupies the Hetao, I will go over in person, and the tribes who are not close to me cannot occupy it! ”
"Long live the Wise Lord! The Hetao is too important to be occupied by the Ming Kingdom. Fan Wencheng immediately echoed, "If my allies of the Great Qing Dynasty are standing, I can send troops to the Ming Kingdom in the future, and I can also order them to send troops to attack from both sides, so that the Ming Kingdom will be exhausted to deal with!" ”
Huang Taiji nodded when he heard this, and then instructed Fan Wencheng: "Sending an edict to the grassland tribes shows that the country is insatiable, and the emperor of the Ming State is so happy that he openly invades the Naturalization City, and next time he will covet the pastures of other tribes in the grassland." As the leader of the alliance of the grassland tribes, I should think about the tribes, and even though the road is far away, I must also make decisions for them, and I decided to lead the alliance army on an expedition to the city of Naturalization......"
Speaking of this, he paused, frowned slightly, and thought for a moment: "It's scheduled to be the alliance in half a month!" ”
"Long live Lord, North Korea's grain has not yet arrived, and the amount of domestic food cannot be used." Fan Wencheng hesitated for a while, but still advised, "Why don't you wait for the arrival of the Korean grain, set a date, and then send a holy decree to the Mongolian tribes?" ”
If there is no food from the North Korean side, let alone send out the army, everyone stays at home, eats only one meal a day, and some people will starve to death. Therefore, Fan Wencheng was a little worried that if the grain from the Korean side could not be transported in time, the Mongolian tribes would send troops to join the alliance, and the result would be delayed, which would damage the prestige of the Qing Dynasty and let those Mongolian allies see the weakness of the Qing Dynasty.
Huang Taiji naturally knew what Fan Wencheng was worried about, and immediately shook his head and said: "It's okay, on the Korean side, I have already sent Duoduo to lead the army, and I have repeatedly explained that it will definitely be transported back in half a month." Even if the governor of Denglai harasses again, it will be a humiliation! ”
"Long live the wisdom!" Fan Wencheng patted himself when he heard this, but as soon as the conversation changed, he proposed again, "Why don't you send a messenger to confirm the itinerary, so that although the holy decree is issued a few days late, it may ensure that the alliance is correct!" ”
He knew about the fact that Duoduo led the army to Korea. Like Huang Taiji, he also believed that even if the entire Dongjiang army was dispatched, it would not be Duoduo's opponent. Therefore, from the very beginning, he was not worried about the safety of the grain, but was only worried about the date of transportation to Liaodong, and wanted to confirm it.
Huang Taiji listened, thought for a while, then nodded and said: "Fan Qing is cautious, what he said is not unreasonable, since this is the case, I will send a messenger to urge the next ......"
At this moment, he saw a report from the chamberlain, saying that the messenger from North Korea had arrived.
When Huang Taiji heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed: "As soon as Cao Cao is said, Cao Cao will arrive, haha......"
The messenger was sent by Duoduo, and when he set off to deliver the grain, he sent it to give a message, so that the Liaodong side could not only know when it would arrive, but also know in advance how much grain there was!
After listening to the messenger's message, Huang Taiji couldn't help laughing and said, "Duoduo really lived up to my expectations, and he didn't have many scruples when he was young, hehe...... With so much food, I can barely survive the winter in the Qing Dynasty! ”
At the beginning, he sent the youngest Duoduo, in fact, he had such a plan, let Duoduo scavenge food over there to meet the needs of Liaodong, and then he reprimanded Duoduo for being young and ignorant, even if it was to appease the king of Joseon. Of course, it is impossible for him to return the looted grain. If there is enough grain in Liaodong next year, we will no longer move the North Korean side, so that the North Korean side can also breathe a sigh of relief.
"Long live the Lord is really a clever calculation, Chrysostom Yuyan, the slave was worried in vain just now!" Fan Wencheng patted his ass and said happily, "In that case, the minion is planning a purpose?" ”
His literary style is considered good in Jianyu, so most of the holy decrees of Huang Taiji are made by him.
Huang Taiji listened, nodded with a smile and said, "Draw up the will!" ”
They didn't know that Duoduo's grain convoy had been harassed by the Dongjiang Army, which had slowed down the journey, and even a large-scale war had broken out at this time.
In Jinpu Town, the Jianyu carrying the simple shield rushed to the wall, and then shouted in unison, turning the shield over and leaning against the wall, and the rung, which was originally used to hold hands on the inside, became a staircase.
Their division of labor was very clear, as soon as this kind of big shield turned over and leaned against the wall, several people hurriedly supported it together, while the Jianyu with a single shield shouted and stepped on those rungs and rushed up.
It's not a wall, it's just a town wall, and it's not that high. Moreover, when Jianyu made this simple shield beforehand, he did it at the height of the town's walls. The siege captives stepped on the rungs and attacked, and when they reached the top, they could jump over the wall with just one force.
"Kill!"
The Ming army was obviously prepared, and the pikemen were behind the wall, and when they saw a Jianyu coming up, they stabbed it out, or poked it into the shield and pushed it down, or poked it into a part that was not protected by a shield, and could poke a Jianyu to death.
The melee battle began, and the battle became fierce.
In the distance, Duoduo saw that the siege force was already entangled with the Ming army at the head of the city, so he ordered the main siege force to attack. He will continue to attack until he enters the town, kills the Bright Army, and captures the governor of Denglai alive.
