Eighth year of Chongzhen
Chapter 310 Emergency
Chapter 310 Emergency
Yue Tuo, who was far away on the front line of Jinzhou, was indeed in a difficult situation as Chen Qiyu guessed. Facing the Ming army huddled in Songshan and other castles, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness for the first time.
At the beginning, he confidently led the army to the south, thinking that except Jinzhou City, other small castles and cities would be easily broken, and then he could return to Shengjing after killing and looting, so as to avenge Yizhou , and can obtain a large amount of population and supplies, and after returning to Shengjing, he can also look good in front of the returning main force of the Western Expedition.
Judging from the experience of the Eight Banners fighting the Ming army for many years, although the Jinzhou Army captured Yizhou and wiped out 1000 people inlaid with the White Banner, it would suffer great damage, and most of its main force will return to Jinzhou to guard against the Eight Banners. In response to the coming retaliation, the defenses of other castles should be very weak.
What he didn't expect was that the guards of these fortresses were not the Jinzhou army who had fought against the Eight Banners soldiers for many years, but the officers and soldiers dispatched from the pass by the Ming court.
Although the number of officers and soldiers in this group is small, they are far superior to Zu Dashou's men in terms of equipment and fighting will, giving people a feeling that they are hard to shake.
After discussing with Kong Youde and others, Yue Tuo unanimously determined that this Ming army was the one that blocked Azig at the foot of Changping City last year. Its sharp firearms and dignified military appearance were exactly the same as what Azig described.
But even if they knew the origin of the Ming army, Yue Tuo and the others had no idea how to defeat it.
The opponent is fighting against the city wall, covered by powerful artillery at the top of the city, and guarded by gun arrays on both wings, it is difficult to get down like a hedgehog.Unless it is to use human life to pile up hard, regardless of the huge lethality of cannons, firecrackers and spears, directly use heavy armored infantry to break through the opening and rush into the formation, but the cost of doing so is too high. The elite of the Eight Banners is elite, but the number It's still too little, needless to say, exchanging one for one, even ten Ming troops for one Eight Banners soldier's life is not worth it.
Ever since he suffered successive defeats under Songshan and Daxing Fort, Yue Tuo saw that he had nothing to gain, so he ordered the whole army to withdraw to the north of Jinzhou, and set up camp before he could make any calculations.
The present Jinzhou and Songshan and other fortress cities are like chicken ribs in Yuetuo's heart, tasteless to eat, and it is a pity to discard them.
Thanks to the emperor's attention, as the leader of the younger generation of the Eight Banners, I led an expedition of 3 people. I spent a lot of money, food and materials in a few months, but in the end I lost my troops and failed to harvest. On the contrary, it was for nothing. Hundreds of lives were lost. Although many Ming troops were killed, the results were not directly proportional to the effort. How could he have the face to return to Shengjing?
But if we continue to spend with the Ming army in the Jinzhou area, not to mention the unsustainable phenomenon of food and supplies, but the declining morale of the army and the gradually cooling climate, these are very unfavorable conditions and factors for the Eight Banners soldiers Adding it all together, Yue Tuo's determination to retreat became more and more serious day by day.
Just when he was in a dilemma, Yue Tuo received a secret letter sent by his father Daishan: Sheng Gong violated the peace and was already sick in bed.
After receiving the secret letter, Yue Tuo immediately recruited King Sanshun to discuss matters, and finally decided to withdraw his troops.
But this order must not come from his mouth. He wants to play Shengjing and push the blame to the emperor.
Although the emperor fell ill, there was still no problem in handling government affairs, but he couldn't work hard for a long time.
Huang Taiji, who was far away in Shengjing, never imagined how he, who was in his prime, would suddenly suffer from such a serious illness.
As the main force of the Western Expedition returned with full load, Huang Taiji was very pleased with the large number of people and supplies captured.The consequences of the severance of the Zhangjiakoubao commercial road on the Eight Banners have gradually emerged. The daily rations of the Han people in each banner have begun to be greatly reduced. Unsustainable situations will arise.Although there was a small-scale smuggling with the Jinzhou Ming army in the middle, the shortage of food and supplies became more and more serious.
Seeing the soldiers of the Eight Banners leading tens of thousands of Mongols, driving countless livestock and Lele carts full of food back to Jianzhou, the boulder that was pressing on his heart finally loosened a lot.
Happily, Huang Taiji decided to go hunting in the mountains for recreation, so as to relax his long-stretched spirit.
But what he never expected was that when he shot an elk over on his horse, he suddenly felt a burst of warmth in his nasal cavity, and then a salty liquid flowed into his mouth, followed by a large stream of bright red blood Flowing down the nostrils quickly.
Huang Taiji, who was riding on the horse, felt dizzy, and his strength seemed to be draining rapidly with nosebleeds.He hurriedly reined in the horse with one hand, threw away the longbow in his hand, raised his face to the sky, and pressed the bridge of his nose with one hand, trying to stop the nosebleed, but these actions did not work at all, and a large amount of blood continued to flow like a spring. Flowing outside, soon soaked the robe on his chest.
The guards on both sides discovered Huang Taiji's abnormality and quickly rode their horses to surround them. The burly guard commander Ao Bai urged his horse to run to Huang Taiji's side. He supported his body, then exerted strength with his arms, and with a soft hey, he hugged the fat and burly Huang Taiji, then turned over, with his legs slightly bent, and carried his master on his back towards the car parked in the distance. The carriage galloped away, the blood rushing from Huang Taiji's nostrils soon dyed the cotton armor on Oboi's back red.
"Empress, please rest assured. What the emperor suffers from epistaxis is caused by wind dizziness. Now the nosebleed has stopped. After the emperor wakes up later, he will take a bowl of decoction, which contains calming and tranquilizing substances. After taking the medicine, the emperor will sleep well for a while, and the symptoms should be relieved after waking up. This disease needs to be rested for a period of time. During this period, beef, mutton, ginseng and other hair products are not allowed. Now the slave will go to the outer hall and wait for the queen to call at any time !"
"I'm sorry Li Yuyi, you can step back! If something happens, I will send someone to call you! The emperor's condition must not be told to anyone, or I will punish you!"
The imperial doctor Li Cunde, who was over fifty years old, was so frightened that he shuddered. He quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Empress Zhezhe, Bumbutai, Hailanzhu and others. The box turned and went out.
"Queen, is the emperor's illness all right? Do you want to send someone to recall eldest brother?"
The slender-eyed and snub-nosed Bumbutai, who is also the famous Concubine Zhuang in later generations, looked at Huang Taiji with his eyes closed and pale face on the bed, and asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, the emperor is very healthy, this time it's just an accidental illness, it will get better in a few days!"
The worried Zhezhe spoke to comfort him.
She is Bumbutai's aunt, but the two married Huang Taiji one after another, but they called each other by rank in the palace.
"Sister, don't worry, the emperor is auspicious, and nothing will happen. The most important thing now is not to let outsiders think that the emperor has a serious illness, otherwise, some people may have wrong thoughts!"
Hai Lanzhu who spoke was Bumbutai's biological sister, who married Huang Taiji at the age of 26.Although Hai Lanzhu's facial features are not very brilliant, but a pair of eyes with clear black and white, looking forward to the look makes the whole face extremely vivid.Just married into the palace last year, she won the favor with her unique style.When Huang Taiji proclaimed himself emperor and canonized the concubines of the five palaces, Hai Lanzhu came from behind and was canonized as concubine Chen, "Donggong Dafujin", second only to Queen Zhezhe.Huang Taiji also named Hai Lanzhu's residence "Guanju Palace" by borrowing the famous line "Guanguan Jujiu, in the river continent" from the Book of Songs.
"Chen Concubine don't have to worry, I don't care, this illness has been going on for some years, but this time it's a little more serious, and you will be fine in a few days. Empress, you send someone to send a decree to call Prince Li into the palace!"
Huang Taiji who was on the sickbed suddenly spoke, comforting in a weak voice.
"Your Majesty, are you awake!?"
Zhezhe and the other three said happily at the same time.
"It doesn't matter what I said, I know it well! Hurry up and pass the decree to someone!"
