Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 590: Chaos! It's all chaos!

War is extremely uncertain. No matter how experienced a person is, he has experienced the cruelty and baptism of war, and no matter how many powerful enemies he defeats, he cannot guarantee that he will be the victor once the war starts!
Because many things will happen during the war. Perhaps a very small incident occurs but is not keenly noticed. The ripples generated may lead to many chain reactions. The powerful enemy will not be completely defeated until the last moment of the war. If defeated, the war will be unwinnable.

This is the most cruel place of war, but it is also the most charming place of war!
Kaiyuan Old Town.

"Da da da~"

The chaotic sound of horse hooves is endless. Ever since Nurhaci secretly led his troops from outside the Fushun Pass to the Kaiyuan area, many cavalrymen have been coming in and out every day.

The atmosphere in Kaiyuan City was tense.

Since the war broke out in various parts of Liaozuo, Horqin was suddenly attacked by Huduntuhan, and many of his troops suffered heavy losses, which made Nurhachi sleepless.

In making good relations with the Horqin tribes, and even frequently marrying each other to consolidate the relationship, the strategic intention behind this is very clear, that is, through the Horqin tribes, they want to gradually conquer the Monan tribes in order to achieve the goals of Dajin, Liaodong, Liaohetao, etc. The status of the land is stable and the strength of the Eight Banners is enhanced!
Although relying on the great victory in the Battle of Sarhu, Nurhaci took advantage of the situation to attack the Yehe tribe, unify the entire Jianzhou Sanwei, consolidate the rule of Tieling, Kaiyuan and other places, and then make Dajin's deterrence in this region greatly increase!

However, there is not only the Ming Dynasty in this area, but also another powerful enemy, the Mongol Khan Huduntuhan. This man is ambitious and wants to restore the glory of Genghis Khan. As a battle between nomads and hunting peoples, , Nurhachi and Hu Duntu Han are naturally rivals, the kind that will fight to the death!

I originally thought of relying on the aggressive victory in Liaozuo, and then seizing the Liao territory to strengthen our foundation and increase the deterrence of the Monan tribes, so as to find the right opportunity to confront Huduntuhan. Unfortunately, in the battle in the first year of Tianqi, the invincible The powerful Eight Banners were actually defeated, and even the old capital Hetuala was attacked by the Ming army in a surprise attack. This had a great impact on Nurhaci and the Dajin Eight Banners.

Especially the Shanxi merchants headed by Fan Yongdou were actually noticed and uprooted by the Ming court for some reason. A crisis quietly emerged within Daikin.

Food crisis.

Gunpowder Crisis.

Iron crisis.

For Daikin, which is in the stage of expansion of power, although the area it controls is vast, most of the areas are very barren and even sparsely populated. If it wants to maintain the pace of the Eight Banners' external expansion, it must find ways to recruit external talents. OK.

However, the failure of the Liaozuo battle not only caused Nurhachi to lose direct contact with the Ming Dynasty, but also the hidden stakes that had penetrated in Liaodong, including the wealthy merchants who had secretly had good relations with the Ming Dynasty, and even some Liao generals. All were wiped out by the group.

The national policy of the Ming Dynasty to close down the Guanguan Pass was only belatedly realized after the battle in the first year of Tianqi. Xiong Tingbi was in front of Liao Dynasty, and Hong Chengchou was in western Liaoning. The impact of the two men's joint efforts to defend Liao and govern Liao was already profound. It has a profound impact on the trend of the region!
If you want to defeat the powerful enemy you are facing, you don't necessarily have to fight on the frontal battlefield. Perhaps you can find a new way to grasp the powerful enemy within seven inches, and the value may be higher! !

"wrong!"

"wrong!"

In a mansion in the old city of Kaiyuan, deep shouts rang out. Nurhachi looked at the person in front of him with a serious expression and his eyebrows splayed.

"The Horqin tribes suffered an invasion. It is absolutely impossible that it was caused by Hu Duntuhan."

Nurhaci said in a low voice: "No matter which direction you attack Horqin from, it will have to pass through the four major Otoks on the left: Alakchu (Alakzot), Aohan, Naiman (Naiman), and Uluru (Zhuyiti). That’s it.”

"But judging from the military information currently available, including what Borzijit Bu and the people they sent said, it is impossible that there will be no movement at all if the Huduntuhan headquarters wants to dispatch from Chahanhot!!"

"What does King Khan mean, is there someone else who invaded the Horqin tribes?"

Dong E He Heli, one of the five ministers, frowned and looked at Nurha Equator.

"I'm afraid that's the case!"

Nurhaci frowned and said: "From the beginning to the end, those who invaded the Horqin tribes did not attack on a large scale, but attacked one by one. What does this mean?"

"Understaffed!"

Dong E·Hehe's ritual words are concise and comprehensive. "good."

Nurhachi seemed to have discovered something, stretched out his hand and said, "Don't you think this looks like the handwriting of one person?"

"Xiong Tingbi?"

Dong E·He Heli said in surprise.

Nurhaci was silent.

Among the powerful enemies he encountered, the one that Nurhaci hated the most was none other than Xiong Tingbi!
This person never follows the rules in doing things. Even though he is a civil servant, his style is not like that of a scholar. On the contrary, he looks like a fighting man.

"If this is really the case, this is definitely not a good thing for me, Dajin." Dong E He Heli said in shock, his eyes widening.

Just saying these words made Nurhaci disappointed.

Speaking of which, the five ministers who initially followed him, Guarjia Fei Yingdong, Niu Hulu Eyidu, and Juercha Anfei Yanggu, have all passed away, which was a great blow to Nurhachi.

Why did Nurhaci actively prepare for the war after losing the battle in the first year of Tianqi, even if he took great risks, he still had to implement the established plan? The root cause is that Dajin was quietly facing internal and external troubles. The transformation was so fast that Nurhaci couldn't believe it.

Although the Eight Banners is still strong, if it does not survive the current crisis, what awaits the Eight Banners will be disintegration!

The war that was originally launched in various parts of the Liaozu was just to cooperate with the elite partial divisions led by Huang Taiji to kill North Korea and firmly attract the various units of the Liao Ming Army. However, the direction of the war deviated greatly from what Nurhaci had expected.

This deviation made Nurhachi very passive.

At present, around the intersection of Horqin and Chahar, low-intensity conflicts have not stopped, and even Ao Han and Naiman (Naiman), who are at odds with Hu Duntu, are involved.

In order to take into account the war situation on the Liaozuo side, Nurhaci did not go to the frontline battlefield in person, but took command from the center in Kaiyuan, while Daishan, Mang Gurtai and others led their troops to participate in this grassland dispute.

As for the person who replaced Nurhachi outside Fushun Pass, it was Amin, one of the four Baylors!
The Eight Banners team has really reached its limit.

The situation of this war made Nurhaci worried for the first time.

“Khan Ama!!”

But at this moment, a voice sounded, which brought Nurhachi back to his senses.

I saw Dorgon wearing armor and carrying a sword, walking quickly into the hall. Although Dorgon was still young, in the first year of Tianqi, his mother Abahai was captured. Her life and death are still unknown, and there is no news. She seems to Grow up overnight.

"Fushun Guan Urgent Report."

Under Nurhaci's doting gaze, Dorgon said: "Our army broke out outside the Fushun Pass, and all the troops collapsed. Liu Aita seems to be suspected of treason..."

"What did you say?!"

Nurhachi stared at Dorgon with his eyes wide open and shouted, he couldn't believe what he heard. The army outside Fushun Pass actually roared?
"Where's Armin!?"

In his excitement, Nurhachi ignored Liu Aita's possible betrayal. In his subconscious, he never thought that Liu Aita would betray him!
