Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 667: Battle on the Battlefield
"Nurhaci is a man with too much ambition and too strong desires, which leads to his love of gambling in everything he does." On the battlefield, the sound of drums became more frequent, and the snow seemed to be trembling slightly. Xiong Tingbi, who was riding a horse, raised a telescope to observe the front line and said calmly.

"Even if he unified the three guards of Jianzhou, it would not satisfy Nurhaci's morbid desire for control. This was related to his early experiences. Li Chengliang and Tongjia Hahanazaqing had a huge impact on Nurhaci."

"Minister, the Jianlu are dispatched!!"

Cui Ruxiu frowned and stared at the battlefield on the front line. Obviously, for Cui Ruxiu at this moment, the dispatched Jianlu army was far more important than what Xiong Tingbi said! !

The snow trembled even more violently.

The shouts and sounds of killing seemed to echo here.

A large crowd of people began to surge towards the Ming army's line.

The horse is running.

The sound of hooves is deafening.

Arrows are flying.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa~"

Along with the sounds of breaking through the air, clusters of black clouds appeared in the sky, and the thrown arrows gathered in the air, creating a strong visual impact.

"No hurries?"

Xiong Tingbi was not in a hurry at all. He slowly put down the telescope and said indifferently, "Do you know why it was the Ming Dynasty that was defeated in the war led by Yang Hao, and the Jianlu that won?"

"Ok?"

Seeing Xiong Tingbi like this, Cui Ruxiu showed doubt. He glanced at Xing Shenyan beside him, and then looked at Xiong Tingbi. He didn't understand why his own minister was in such a state.

"Is it true that the elite troops of the Ming Dynasty are no match for the Eight Banners of the Jianlu?"

Xiong Tingbi narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was talking to himself, as if he was saying to Cui Ruxiu and the others, "No, if we really start a war, if both sides fight to the death, it is not certain who will win in the end!"

When he spoke of this, changes began to occur in several battalions and schools at the front line. The endless array of soldiers quickly calmed down after a brief commotion.

Although they were far away, Xiong Tingbi could vaguely see the indistinct large shields being set up. In the army formation, the archers in the rear had already begun to prepare. Under the command of their officers, these archers were either raising their crossbows or pulling their bows, waiting to launch a counterattack against the approaching Jianlu!
"But because of the urgency, Emperor Shenzong Xian was anxious, the high officials in the court were anxious, Yang Hao was anxious, and several generals were anxious... They didn't even understand the battlefield situation, but ignored the impact of the sudden change in climate and brazenly launched an offensive against the Jianlu."

Xiong Tingbi was a little disappointed. "Obviously, the more anxious ones were Jianlu and Nurhaci. But because everyone was anxious, no one realized that Nurhaci was gambling, betting his entire fortune to fight against the Ming army. In that battle, the Ming Dynasty was defeated."

"Not only did they lose a large number of elite troops, but they also killed a large number of brave generals. If that were the case, the Ming Dynasty's situation in Liaodong would not have been so passive. However, because of the defeat in this battle, the trend of being afraid of the slaves suddenly began to rise. With this battle, they captured countless Jianlu and were able to quickly make up for their losses. Not only did they completely capture Kaiyuan and other places, but they also destroyed the Yehe tribe, the only tribe that could contain the Jianlu."

"Kill!!"

"Kill!!"

When Xiong Tingbi was saying this, the shouts and cries of killing became louder, and under such circumstances, the Ming army's vanguard troops launched waves of arrows at the oncoming Jianlu.

Red spots began to appear on the white snow.

The group of people gathered around Xiong Tingbi were attracted by the fierce performance on the front battlefield, and their heartbeats began to speed up.

This battle is too important for them!

From Anle Prefecture to Jinshan, all the troops that Liaodong can mobilize are here. In this battle, they not only have to fight with Jianlu, but also have to be wary of Chahar, Khorchin and other forces. It seems that only Xiong Tingbi is not nervous or anxious.

"Minister, should we send someone to order our artillery to launch an artillery attack?"

Xing Shenyan hesitated for a moment, then leaned forward, looked at Xiong Tingbi and said, "The offensive launched by the Jianlu is more fierce than expected. If our army fails to suppress Jianling, I'm afraid that Hudun, Tuhan and the others..."

"No hurries."

Xiong Tingbi was not in a hurry at all. "You Shigong, Qi Bingzhong, Li Bingcheng and the others haven't had enough of fighting yet. Don't worry, just continue to listen to my lecture."

This……

Xing Shenyan, Cui Ruxiu and others wouldn't do that. This was completely different from what they had discussed at the beginning. The war had already started, so why were their own ministers becoming emotional?

Is this the time to be sentimental?!
Even if you want to be sentimental, there is a time for that!!
"The most taboo thing in war is haste."

Facing the puzzled gazes of the crowd, Xiong Tingbi said calmly: "Especially when the battle situation is tense and complicated, as the commander of a large army, anyone can be anxious, but he cannot be anxious. But now Nurhaci is anxious, because he likes gambling, so he never trusts anyone!!"

"Nurhaci thought I didn't know what he did. Humph, he is still holding on until now. He wants to play the game of building a plank road in the open while secretly attacking Chencang with me. Unfortunately, he underestimated the Ming Dynasty!!"

Ok?
Everyone who heard this noticed something unusual.

"Since he wants to cause more casualties among the Eight Banners under his command and make them more hostile to the Ming Dynasty, then fine, I will fulfill his wish!!"

Xiong Tingbi snorted coldly: "A guy who relies on kowtows to his master and relies on women to gain power, no matter how ambitious and greedy he is, he can't change his nature after all!!"

"It is ridiculous to think that you have unified the three guards of Jianzhou and united the chaotic Jurchen tribes, and that you are destined to be the emperor.

Cui Ruxiu, Xing Shenyan and the others showed different expressions. At this moment, they were extremely convinced that their own department must have noticed something, but they were completely unaware of it beforehand.

"Come here!!!"

At this moment, Xiong Tingbi shouted sternly: "Pass on my order, order the artillery formations on the left and right wings to remove their camouflage and bombard me hard!!"

"promise!!"

Several messengers shouted immediately.

"Pass on my command!!"

But Xiong Tingbi hadn't finished speaking yet, and was still issuing military orders, "Order Zhu Mei, Yang Zongye, and Ma Chengzong to attack, and ruthlessly kill the Tartars for me!!"

"promise!!!"

There was constant noise in the central army, but Cui Ruxiu, Xing Shenyan and others who gathered around Xiong Tingbi didn't know what to say at this moment.

Especially after hearing what Xiong Tingbi said, everyone's expressions were extremely complicated.

"You like gambling, right? Okay, then I'll let you gamble!" Xiong Tingbi showed a sinister smile, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and said: "Nurhaci, I'll let you know the power of the Ming Dynasty. Even if you don't dare to invade the Liao border of the Ming Dynasty in the future, I will make you afraid!"
