I am the carpenter king

Hearing this name, Huang Taiji didn't feel anything, because he was not familiar with this person.However, the bodies of Sanggataiji who were sitting on the side trembled, and the expressions on their faces also changed. They obviously knew Man Gui, who was of the same clan.

Seeing the expressions of several people, Huang Taiji was slightly taken aback. It seems that Man Gui also has a story!Looking at the faces of several people, Huang Taiji also knew that the guard at Xifengkou was not easy to mess with, so he looked at Chen Liangyu again.After pondering for a while, Huang Taiji said to Chen Liangyu: "Mr. Chen, is there anything special about this Mangui?"

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Chen Liangyu said helplessly: "As the guard of Xifengkou, Man Gui's position is not high, he is just a general. But on the ground of Jiliao, no one looks down upon him even if he is the commander-in-chief." This general. Although Qi Jin, the governor of Jiliao in the Santun camp, was not reused by the Ming court, no one in this Jiliao had a higher prestige than Qi Jin. Not only because of Qi Jiguang back then, Qi Jin He is also very capable. But even Qi Jin thinks highly of Man Gui."

Hearing Chen Liangyu's words, Huang Taiji became even more curious about Mangui, and Huang Taiji naturally knew about the Ming Dynasty's theory that people who were not of our race would have different hearts.Man Gui, a general at Xifengkou, was able to gain such respect on the ground of the people of the Ming Dynasty, which was definitely not something that bravery could achieve.

"Mr. Chen, how much do you know about Man Gui? Is there anything specific?" Looking at Chen Liangyu, Huang Taiji asked in a deep voice.

"Master Belle, Mr. Chen still knows something about Man Gui. Few people don't know about Man Gui in this land of Jiliao. No one knows where Man Gui came from. They only know that he was eleven or twelve years old. He came to the Ming Dynasty. He took his mother and six-year-old sister with him." Chen Liangyu said, looking at the Sangga Mongols who were looking to the side. Mangui was hunted down when he came to the Ming Dynasty. Obviously Something unusual happened over there in Mongolia.

Slowly nodding his head, Huang Taiji said in a deep voice: "The young man lost his father, raised his young sister, and also took care of his mother. This person must be a man with a firm mind."

After pondering for a while, Chen Liangyu sighed softly, and said seriously: "Since ancient times in the Ming Dynasty, there has been an argument that everything is inferior, and only reading is high. But in this Jiliao area, no matter whether it is civil or military, it is very important to Man Gui. They are all very admired, including Chen."

Hearing Chen Liangyu's words, Huang Taiji was taken aback for a moment, for he was able to get the general's approval.This is also understandable.But even the civil servants admired him a lot, this person must have something extraordinary, these civil servants in the Ming Dynasty were a bunch of weirdos.

Gently nodding his head, Huang Taiji stretched out his hand to Chen Liangyu, and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, continue."

"Yes, Lord Belle! Man Gui came to the land of the Ming Dynasty, but he is a Mongolian or a child. No one here is willing to believe him. Although this is a border town, the people in the border town don't even have a good impression of the Mongolians. It can be imagined that Mangui's life is not good." Chen Liangyu looked at the people in the room and nodded gently.

Huang Taiji nodded, he could understand this naturally, both Mongols and Jurchens have this kind of exclusion, there is no doubt about it.

"But after all, people have to live. The 12-year-old Man Gui still has to support his sister and mother. There is no way for Man Gui to join the army. But a 12-year-old child is still a Mongolian. Naturally, it is impossible for the army to have He. When Man Gui joined the army, he heard the news that the heads of Mongolians could be exchanged for silver. Man Gui didn't even greet other people, and went out alone with a knife. His trip was three God. When I came back, I brought five horses and five human heads, and they were all scouts from the Chahar Department." Chen Liangyu said with emotion, obviously at this time he still felt very incredible.

Slightly taken aback, Huang Taiji did not expect such a person to exist. It seems that this Man Gui is really a courageous person.Growing up in a difficult environment, with a heart harder than a rock, such a person is very rare!At this time, Huang Taiji already had the idea of ​​subduing Man Gui in his heart, such a rare talent is really rare.

"It's just that Man Gui is not a soldier of the Ming Dynasty, and there is no way to exchange side power for money. However, after his story spread, Qi Jin, the general soldier of Ji Liao, found Man Gui. But for some reason, Qi Jin didn't Let Man Gui join the Qi family army, maybe he didn't want to delay his future. After all, the Qi family army's condition was not good. Later, Man Gui became the frontier army of the Ming Dynasty. Man Gui was very brave every time he fought, and he gained a lot. Gradually, all the soldiers in the army were convinced of this young man, and the people above him valued him more and more, and wanted to promote him many times." Chen Liangyu's tone was very emotional, and he obviously admired even Chen Liangyu and Man Gui Plus.

Frowning and thinking for a while, Huang Taiji said hesitantly: "Since many people want to promote him, and he has made a lot of contributions, why is Man Gui still just a general after so many years? Although it is not low, but Compared with his ability, this position is still a bit low."

"This is the second admirable place in Mangui. Everyone in the Ming Dynasty knew that being a high-ranking official can make more money. For the generals of the frontier army, it is a matter of embezzlement and smuggling of goods. I don't want to do it. But the military salary of the frontier army is really not much, even for an officer. If you want to let your sister and mother live a good life, you can't do things that are not allowed by the Ming Law. It can be said that it is very difficult. Here Afterwards, Man Gui did something that everyone admired, he refused promotion many times, and exchanged all his credit for money." Chen Liangyu's tone was very relaxed, obviously thinking that this was an interesting thing.

Huang Taiji, who was sitting on the side, nodded slowly. Man Gui is really a very good person who values ​​friendship, ability, and principle in doing things.At this time, he wanted to win Man Gui to his side even more in his heart. If this was a Han, Huang Taiji might not have such an idea, but this is a Mongol.If he could win Man Gui over, not only would he be able to get a good general, but at the same time he would be able to pass through Xifeng Pass smoothly, which would kill two birds with one stone.

After pondering for a long time, Huang Taiji said hesitantly to Chen Liangyu: "Mr. Chen, is there any way to win Man Gui over? Ben Baylor is very interested in this person!"

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Chen Liangyu pondered for a moment, then turned his gaze to Brother Sangga Taiji.After thinking for a while, Chen Liangyu said hesitantly: "Master Belle, it's hard to say about this matter, Mr. Chen, you should ask the two Taijis!"

After hearing Chen Liangyu's words, Huang Taiji was taken aback for a moment, and immediately turned his gaze to Sanggataiji.When he saw these two people, Huang Taiji knew that these two people must have something to do with Man Gui.After pondering for a while, Huang Taiji asked in a gentle tone: "You two Taijis, I don't know what entanglement you have with this Man Gui?"

The two brothers looked at each other, and Sanggataiji said in a deep voice: "We know this Mangui, and Baylor should have heard of it. Since he is a Mongolian, he naturally came from our grassland. Back then Dong Fox After his death, Lin Dan Khan of the Chahar tribe has not yet had the strength to control the grassland, and many tribes have been wiped out in the scuffle between the various tribes." As he spoke, Sanggataiji looked at Huang Taiji and asked in a low tone: "Presumably Baylor also knows about this?"

Huang Taiji naturally knew, and nodded slowly, Huang Taiji asked hesitantly: "Could it be that Man Gui came to the Ming Dynasty at that time?"

Nodding his head vigorously, Sangga said solemnly: "At that time, our Zalut tribe was just one of many tribes. After going through that war, our Zalut tribe became as big as it is now. Man Gui's father was Nuoyan from another tribe. There was a war between our two tribes, and his father died on the battlefield. Man Gui took his mother and sister to the Ming Dynasty. He always brought the army to fight with us. Later, Lin Dan Khan of the Chahar Department of the Ming Dynasty had an alliance, so he has not fought for many years!"

Frowning tightly, Huang Taiji knew that there was no hope for him to win over Man Gui, and Da Jin could not lose the Zalut Department.Besides, the woman in Zhalut's department is Da Fujin from Dabeile Daishan. This level of concern means that he has nothing to do with Zhalut's department now, and it is obviously unrealistic to win over Man Gui.But it is obviously a headache to fight against such a person.

After pondering for a while, Huang Taiji once again turned his attention to Chen Liangyu who was on the side. Although this guy's information is not very accurate, it is better than nothing.Smiling calmly, Huang Taiji asked in a deep voice: "Mr. Chen, how many troops are there at Xifengkou guarded by Mangui? How about the equipment?"

"Master Baylor, the defenders at Xifeng Pass and the three gates breached by Lord Baylor, the defenders are all five thousand, and there are no artillery." Chen Liangyu frowned and said, but there was a little more hesitation in his words.

Huang Taiji breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that his obstacle was still the Qi family army, if the Qi family army came out to stop him, this battle would have to be fought hard.

"However, Lord Belle, there is one difference between Xifengkou and the other places. There are [-] cavalry out of the [-] defenders there. There are many Mongols gathered here. This cavalry is a rare elite , maybe it will be a little troublesome." Chen Liangyu pondered for a while, then said in a dignified voice.

Gently waving his hand, Huang Taiji didn't care much now, he really lacked two thousand cavalry.Even if Man Gui is a wizard who leads the army, two thousand cavalry can't make a big wave in front of him.Looking at a few people, Huang Taiji said in a deep voice: "Tomorrow morning, soldiers will be dispatched to Xifengkou."
