Chapter 315: Ploughing Battle

He Heli said: "Last year's expedition to Yehe, this year's expedition to Ming, the bannermen are mainly war-based, and there is a shortage of manpower when farming. ”

Fei Yingdong said: "Since last year's summer, there is very little rain, this year's winter is very cold, after the spring has not rained, the field near the water can also be manpower to divert water, and the field of far water has reduced the yield by more than 50%. The seedlings withered, and the ears of wheat withered. ”

Although He Heli is a veteran of the father, he is under the two red flags at this time, and Dai Shan also bowed down at this time and said: "Khan Ama, what the ministers said is true, I went to the Kuandian area to see it, and they are all average." ”

Nurhachi thought back, sure enough, since last winter, there has been almost no rain for a few months, when he was planning to eliminate the Yehe Department, and then attack Ming again, and seize Liaodong and Liaonan, under such a grand strategy, of course, there is also great pressure, Nurhachi was worried during that time, and almost didn't care about other things, otherwise with his decision to deal with government affairs today, such a disaster would have been known a long time ago.

"It's amazing." Thinking back on most of his life, Nurhachi shook his head and said, "I have never seen such a bad time for many years!" ”

In the modern society hundreds of years later, there are still a small number of Tunguska people living in the polar regions and dense forests, eating venison raw, living in snow huts, and taking sleds and dogs as companions, which is a true portrayal of the Jurchens at the beginning.

After returning to the Ming Dynasty, they got a fixed residence, and could trade with farming peoples such as the Han people, and also learn to farm, buy farming cattle, since the time of Nurhachi's grandfather, the Jianzhou Department is mainly based on agriculture, supplemented by fishing and hunting, because of this, the strength of the Jianzhou Department is getting stronger and stronger, far beyond the ministries.

Of course, Nurhachi is very concerned about agriculture, fishing and hunting are the basis of the tribe's force, used to exercise its armed forces, and farming can ensure that the Houjin country has the national strength to wage a big war, without food, there will be no more people, if you can't grow cotton, you can't produce cloth, you can't make the bannermen wear robes, there is no storage, there is no capital to keep the soldiers away from the tribe to fight, it is to plough and plough and plough war, in fact, plough in war.

Huang Taiji got up and said: "Khan Ama, according to Fushun's forehead, the Ming Kingdom has been the same in the past few years, and the weather is extremely bad everywhere. ”

"What's the use of that!" Nurhaci shook his head and said, "The size of the Ming Kingdom is unimaginable. I also know that their harvest on the nine sides is not good, but they can continue to collect grain from other places, and the people of the Ming Kingdom will not be short of grain. ”

With Nurhachi's many visits to the Ming Dynasty, there is nothing wrong with this.

No matter how many disasters the nine sides encountered during the Xiaoice River period, in fact, the sergeants in the area of Jingshi and Jizhen Liaozhen never had to worry about lack of food, only the northern border towns suffered from major disasters and the financial difficulties of the imperial court, and the supply of the northwest border towns was quite insufficient, and in the rest of the places, its practicality was almost always sufficient.

Liaozhen's foreign war is weak, almost all because of the blood sucking of the door, the huge financial supply, more than ninety percent of the fall into the private door, the imperial court is weak, so you have to let the gate sit big, in fact, from the performance of the Qing army after the entry of the Liaodong generals, it is not without the power of a war, and even so, it is also the result of a lot of wealth into the private door, if the Ming Dynasty millions of silver and grain a year are really used to raise soldiers, Houjin is completely without any chance.

In addition, what Nuerhachi did not expect was a peasant uprising, because the disaster in the nine sides led to the bankruptcy of small and medium-sized landlords in Shaanxi, Shanxi, and Henan, and the peasants revolted one after another, which further aggravated the loss of financial, manpower, and material resources in the center of the Ming Dynasty, resulting in the inability to fully deal with the crisis in Liaodong.

"There is always a good time." Mang Gurtai saw that everyone was solemn, and said with a big grin.

Huang Taiji glanced at his elder brother, his heart was quite disdainful, and he said, "Do you know how much the price of grain is now?" ”

Mang Gurtai knew that he had been caught by this good brother in front of his father Khan, and he said a little embarrassed: "I don't know, even if it rises slightly, it will always fall." ”

Huang Taiji raised two fingers and said: "Now it is two taels and one stone, my people always have to buy food with silver to eat, and now it is not too difficult because of the previous wars, I have won a lot of silver and two assets, and I will distribute a lot, and in a few months, the price of grain will not fall, I am afraid that many of my people will starve." ”

"What are you afraid of?" Mang Gurtai seemed to be opened to his mind, and said in a vicious voice: "The Han people are not from our country, if the life is good, you can support them and make them pay taxes after completing their food, if the life of the people of the country can't go on, do you still let them eat and drink enough to see our jokes?" When the time comes, rob them of their food! ”

This is very absurd, Huang Taiji almost on the spot to ridicule each other, he is familiar with Han books, knows that governing the country is not so simple, if it is according to Mang Gurtai said, what is the use of occupying such a large territory? It's better to learn from the Mongols and grab it every few years, which will save a lot of trouble.

It's just that Huang Taiji saw that his father Khan actually nodded slightly, Dai Shan, Amin, and Fei Yingdong and others all showed a thoughtful look, although no one directly agreed, but obviously Mang Gurtai's speech this time was still recognized by many people, and everyone felt that this method was very refreshing, and it could quickly solve the dilemma.

Only He Heli frowned and said: "Now there are many Han people who are poor, and the Han people's territory is also suffering, there are many homeless people and beggars, and I will grant land to my people, and I will not grant land to Han people, which is also a big trouble." ”

Mang Gurtai was encouraged, and then he said loudly: "What's so difficult about this? What's the use of keeping Hermes-Epitek with no land and no rice? Do you really ask our people to fight wars and pay taxes to support them? It's better to kill. ”

"Three-Baylor has a point."

This time, someone finally spoke out in agreement, and many others echoed it.

Nurhachi also frowned and was thinking, recently he issued a decree, saying that as long as the Han people cooperate with the Jurchen rule, they will be treated as one, and he also killed several Jurchens who violated the order to kill the Han people, and used the heads of these unlucky ghosts to kill chickens and monkeys, so as to prevent the Jurchens from slaughtering and looting everywhere and shaking the foundation of his rule in eastern and southern Liaoning.

However, since they are in the dilemma of lack of food, they can't let the Jurchens and the Han people starve together, or the Jurchens are starving, and the Han people are eating all over the place, so what will the people think? The foundation of the rule of the Later Jin State is to use the slave owners of the Nurhaci family plus the Eight Banners, if the Eight Banners are centrifugal, what is the use of millions of Han people really being submissive?

But at this time, it is not the time to change the national policy, but some fine-tuning can be made, such as the land given by Nurhachi, which is actually a disguised snatch of acres of land from the Han people, and at the same time he also ordered the Jurchen family to go to the Han village to choose the Han family to live with because they have just moved to the Han land, one is to ask the Han people to support these conquerors, and the other is to use the Jurchens to monitor the Han people everywhere, killing two birds with one stone.

Nurhaci thought to himself that all kinds of measures had been put in place, and now if he hunted down a large number of Han people and looted food, it was not necessary, and it was also tantamount to slapping himself and greatly damaging his prestige, so there was no need to be so manipulative.

At that moment, he said to Mang Gurtai: "If you discuss it with the Great Belle or the Fourth Belle in advance, so as not to speak absurdly." ”

Mang Gurtai blushed, Nuno retreated repeatedly, and the people who had just agreed with him were also taken aback, and everyone bowed down, for fear of being scolded by Nurhachi.

"However, food shortages are also important." Nurhachi suddenly remembered something and said to Huang Taiji: "The Han merchant of the Ming Kingdom who used to be allied with our country before, is it named Zhang Han?" ”

Huang Taiji's heart sank, and he said: "It's called Zhang Han." ”

"Why hasn't he moved yet?" Nurhachi said with some dissatisfaction: "I came here that day, saying that it was to establish a trade route, but after many years, there was no movement, and it seems that I can't count on it." ”

Huang Taiji bowed down and said: "According to Fushun, the latest news is that this person has won the business war with the competing big merchants, and has won the heavy profits of trade and smuggling in Tumut Mongolia, and there is also news that his goods have also been going north, and the three Mongolian parts of Transkhalkha also have a very good relationship with him. To the east, it is Karaqin, which has reached Baihong Dataiji, and then down is the Inner Khalkha Wubu of fried flowers, then Alukorqin, Nenjiang Horqin, and then down to reach the border wall between us and Mongolia. Khan Amma, the road is too far, there are many tribes, and there are different thoughts, this Zhang Han is also a person with great perseverance, I believe that he will come eventually. ”

Nuerhachi listened quietly to Huang Taiji's words, his mind was still very clear at this time, and he did not lose his mind, after listening, Nuerhachi said: "It seems that I have some misunderstanding, in this case, we can send some soldiers and horses as vanguards, first to the border of Horqin, and when the Bahrain Ao Han Naiman troops are reconciled with us, we will send people to those departments, so that when the caravan comes, we can calmly lead to Liaodong." ”

"Hui Khan Ama," Huang Taiji said calmly, "I have already sent half of Niu Lu's men to the grassland, where I have been waiting for news for a long time, if the caravan comes, it can also be guarded nearby, these people are led by Tan Tai and Shu Mu." ”

"Tan Tai is also about to be a Niu Lu Ezhen, Shu Mu was originally, half of Niu Lu's Ding Kou is too little, make up for them a Niu Lu, your banner is short of manpower, and when there are savage Jurchens or Mongolians under it, first make up for your white flag."

Everyone is extremely envious, Huang Taiji is transferring people without authorization, but Nuer Hachi does not have the slightest anger and mind, not only that, but also helps Huang Taiji to supplement the insufficient Qiding, this favor, not to mention that ordinary little Baylor and Taiji brothers can't be compared at all, even the other three Baylor seems to be inferior.

Dai Shan's face was expressionless, Amin's eyes were shining, but Mang Gurtai was angry.

Huang Taiji got up and thanked his father Khan, of course he also noticed the expressions of the three big beylers, among the three, he was actually the most afraid of Dai Shan, although Amin was gloomy, but he lacked perseverance, and at the same time he was not the son of Nurhachi, this layer limited his future prospects, Mang Gurtai is just a reckless man, and the war is average, not as good as Abatai, but Dai Shan is brave and daring to fight, acting decisively, and sitting on two red flags, which can be called the expectation of everyone.

Dai Shan's face was expressionless, of course, he was not forbearing, but he just didn't take Huang Taiji to heart.

Huang Taiji's eyes were calm and calm, he had already planned a way to deal with Dai Shan, and he would soon implement it-

Everyone remembers voting, and this week's red votes feel a little down, and there is something bad in my heart.
