Chapter 425 You Can't Lose Too Cleanly
Hundreds of warships from the Ming Dynasty came to help, and Huang Taiji walked back and forth in the sweat tent. The situation had developed to the point he least wanted to see. The Ming Dynasty wanted to forcibly rescue Zhenjiang Fort by taking advantage of the rain.

"Khan, the people on Jiangxin..." Seeing Huang Taiji walking back and forth with hesitation on his face, Fan Wencheng immediately reminded Jiangxin's people again in a low voice.

Huang Taiji was reminded by Fan Wencheng, and he stopped suddenly. A large number of Ming Dynasty warships came up. Will the troops on Jiangxin Island withdraw or not?There are so many warships, enough to surround and fight Jiangxin Island. There is no place to hide in Jiangxin Island. The people on it can only wait for death...

Huang Taiji fell into a huge hesitation, whether to evacuate or not, now there is time to evacuate, it has only rained for a while, and the river has just started to rise, if you want to evacuate, there is still time.

However, Huang Taiji was not reconciled. If the people on Jiangxin Island were withdrawn, even if the matter of blocking the river was completely over, it would no longer be able to prevent the Ming Dynasty from reinforcing Zhenjiang Fort. Once the Ming Dynasty's reinforcements arrived at Zhenjiang Fort, Then, in this battle of Zhenjiang Fort, he, Dajin, was considered to have lost, and he still lost completely. Huang Taiji couldn't make up his mind easily.

"Join the generals!" Huang Taiji roared, it was a difficult choice, Huang Taiji didn't know how to choose.

……

Baylors, big and small, gathered in sweat tents soon, and the rain brought in from the outside made the dry sweat tents immediately wet.

"...Just received a report from the fast horses downstream that more than 200 warships sailed into the Yalu River in the Ming Dynasty, and they will soon arrive at Linjiang Village..." Huang Taiji repeated the news.

The news exploded in the sweaty tent with a "boom", and the generals, big and small, started talking about it. This news is really astonishing! More than 200 warships!From the beginning to the end, it was possible to go from Zhenjiang Fort to Linjiang Village.As for how to deal with the things on the water, none of the people in Houjin could say a good way.

"Okay, just be quiet!" Huang Taiji was overwhelmed by the news. He couldn't make a decision on this matter. He had to let others make the decision. In case of defeat in the war, he couldn't resist alone.

Seeing Huang Taiji speaking, everyone quieted down, waiting for Huang Taiji to speak.

Huang Taiji tried his best to appear calm, so as not to infect others with his inner panic.

"Be quiet, everyone, and let Xiandou talk about the situation..." Huang Taiji tried his best to calm himself down. Withdrawing or not withdrawing troops is too difficult a decision. Whether withdrawing or not withdrawing is likely to cause huge losses. Huang Taiji no longer has the courage to order this kind of thing alone. Dajin is not Huang Taiji's Dajin alone. If the loss is too large due to his decision-making, I am afraid that he will be seated in the seat of the Dahan. unstable.

Everyone turned their attention to Fan Wencheng, a Han Chinese.

"Xiandou, tell everyone about Jiangxin Island..." Huang Taiji urged.

Fan Wencheng did not hesitate for long, and began to calmly introduce the situation on Jiangxin Island.

"...Masters, according to my servant's observation, the Jiangxin Island where my Dajin is stationed is very likely to be unsafe. It is already raining now. After it rains, the river will surely rise, and Jiangxin Island will be completely separated and become a An isolated island, and the Ming Dynasty had more than 200 warships, of which there were more than 40 warships, and it is estimated that there were a lot of cannons. If my Dajin people still stay on Jiangxin Island, there will be no one on Jiangxin Island Once the warships of the Ming Dynasty come up, it will be extremely unfavorable to the troops stationed on Jiangxin Island... The slave thinks that maybe the troops on Jiangxin Island must be withdrawn, and it is not enough to take advantage of the rising river water. It's very powerful, people and horses can still pass through, if it's too late, I'm afraid..." Fan Wencheng calmly talked about the problem on Jiangxin Island.

This said, the big and small Baylor present will be even more fried.

"Khan, retreat quickly. The Jiangxin Island is surrounded by water. Isn't this a dead end for the warships of the Ming Dynasty?" A little Baylor immediately shouted. Everyone in the later gold wished that they would never meet each other, and go as far as they can.

"Khan, it's better to withdraw. There is no place to block Jiangxin Island. Isn't this letting our warriors die? With so many warships from the Ming Dynasty coming aboard, Jiangxin Island may be the place to go." I can't stand anymore!"

"Sweat profusely! Let's get out, it's too late, we're on the water, we can't deal with others..."

Big and small Baylor, the generals are starting to worry. According to what Fan Wencheng said, staying on Jiangxin Island is a dead word!Huang Taiji was waiting calmly, waiting for someone to be scapegoated for him. If he spoke out and ordered to retreat at this time, as soon as the reinforcements from Zhenjiang Fort arrived, the nature of the battle would change. At that time, the responsibility for this failure would be He has to carry it.

"Wait..." A cold voice rang out, and the sweaty tent immediately fell silent.

The one who spoke was none other than Amin, the second of the post-Golden Four Baylors.

"Second brother, but I have something to say." Huang Taiji asked immediately, thinking that he was right in his calculations, and someone will take the blame for him.

"Exactly..." Amin said with squinted eyes. Recently, Amin has become obsessed with Zhenjiang Fort. It is like driving North Koreans to Zhenjiang Fort to die. It is done by his hands. For Zhenjiang Fort, his eyes are always It's red, and it looks like it can't wait to eat people. It's all about how to capture Zhenjiang Fort, and what will happen after it is captured.

"...Fourth brother, the troops on Jiangxin Island cannot be withdrawn. If we withdraw, what are we going to do to seal off the river? Besides, if we withdraw, who will let go of the fireboats and rolling logs we prepared there? Isn't it even necessary for such means? Is it gone? We can’t block the river, so why are we here at Zhenjiang Fort? Waiting for the Ming people to send things into Zhenjiang Fort, isn’t it worth fighting these days?” A Min squinted, dissatisfied, and said bitterly .

Amin is the second of the four great belors, and like Huang Taiji, he has the right to "sit facing south", so, sitting next to Huang Taiji, he squinted and said, the generals will immediately silence the big and small belors in the sweat tent.

"Second brother, it is important to block the river, but once the warships of the Ming Dynasty come up, Jiangxin Island will have no way out. At that time, the warships of the Ming Dynasty will surround Jiangxin Island. It’s a dead end!” Huang Taiji couldn’t make up his mind whether to withdraw or not to withdraw. With this decision, withdrawing is also a loss, and not withdrawing is also a loss. Huang Taiji decided to throw this hot potato to others, and the two people around him Brother, he is the best candidate. My second brother is always at odds with me. I don’t know why, but he seems to have an indescribable and unexplainable hatred for Zhenjiang Fort, with the priority of putting Zhenjiang Fort to death. Amin rushed to do such dirty work as driving out the North Koreans.

"It doesn't matter, how many cannons can there be on those warships of the Ming Dynasty? Although there are many ships, they are all fake. Ben Belle dares to conclude that this is just a bluff by the people of the Ming Dynasty. Thinking about how we fought Jinning the year before last, Yuan Manzi knew Ting fully supports, but only twenty Hongyi cannons, how much can Mao Wenlong produce this time? Ben Belle does not believe that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty can conjure up dozens of cannons..., as long as we use Jiangxin Island If the men and horses on board are scattered, the warships of Mao Wenlong’s water battalion will have nothing to do with us, as long as we get through the heavy rain, Mao Wenlong will die...” A Min is not like Huang Taiji, there were many spies in the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty knew everything well, so naturally they couldn't avoid bad luck and avoid bad luck like Huang Taiji did.

Huang Taiji quietly looked at his counselor Fan Wencheng, and found that Fan Wencheng was also looking at him intentionally or unintentionally...

"Second brother, today is not what it used to be. It is said that the Ming Dynasty built a lot of new cannons. I am afraid...the reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty are coming in menacingly again. In my opinion, Jiangxin's troops should be withdrawn..." Seeing that there was already a scapegoat, Huang Taiji relaxed a lot, and began to hypocritically persuade his second brother, one of the four Baylors who also "sit facing south" with him.In the current situation, Huang Taiji has already lost most of the losses. The rest is to keep his loss from being too miserable, and to integrate the interior of Daikin by the way. In addition, he is looking forward to miracles, such as the sudden rain stopped, such as the sudden dawn. All the warships of the North Korean army were overturned..., until the last moment, Huang Taiji would not admit that he had lost.

The development of the matter did not disappoint Huang Taiji. His second brother, perhaps for the purpose of fighting against him, or perhaps because of his hatred for Zhenjiang Fort, decided not to withdraw the people on Lijiangxin Island.

"Fourth brother, Jiangxin's troops can't withdraw. If we withdraw, we will lose this battle completely. We have so many warriors who died here, wouldn't we die in vain?" Amin is already possessed. His hatred and dissatisfaction with his fourth brother, he has not paid much attention to his fourth brother's profuse sweating, and even neglected the most superficial respect. He used to shout loudly in front of everyone. Da Khan, now, is the name of the fourth brother, as if he is the Khan of Dajin.

"Hey, second brother, this... Ben Khan always feels that it is better to withdraw the troops on Jiangxin Island as soon as possible. It is better to withdraw as soon as possible because they are placed in Jiangxin to be fought by Ming Dynasty warships. Zhenjiang Fort has reinforcements, so what? The rain cannot fall every day, and the water cannot rise every day. After a few days, when the river falls, we can still besiege the city and kill Zhenjiang Fort..." Huang Taiji Picking himself out, the scapegoat has been quietly given to his second brother.

The big and small Baylors in the sweat tent, the general watched the two arguing there, one was Da Khan, and the other was one of the four big Baylors, who had the right to be "worth the month". The two competed for a high and low.

"Hehe, don't worry, fourth brother. Ben Baylor knows that Jiangxin Island is absolutely unavoidable. If we withdraw, we will lose this battle completely. It will be a matter of the future. Now, don't we still have fire?" The boat, are there still logs? If it is withdrawn, who will put these things? According to Ben Baylor, Mao Wenlong doesn’t have many cannons in red clothes. What are you afraid of doing? In a place as big as Jiangxin Island, people hide everywhere. Mao Wenlong's dozens of cannons can't help us at all, as long as we stay up until the rain is over, we will be in the world of Dajin again..." Amin's understanding of Ming Dynasty is far from Huang Taiji's as clear as Huang Taiji's. My impression is still one or two years ago. Although there are many new news from the Ming Dynasty, Amin does not believe how many cannons the Ming Dynasty can produce and how much threat it can pose to the troops in Jiangxin. According to his Thoughts, there are two or three times more cannons than when we fought Jinzhou back then. Mao Wenlong was overestimated. That was only sixty or seventy cannons, and the warships scored on both sides. There is really no need to worry too much about dealing with Jiangxin Island's "such a big" place. According to Amin's thinking, as long as he fights until the rain ends, the war can be reversed.

Seeing that the scapegoat was taken away by others, Huang Taiji didn't argue about whether to withdraw or not.

"Okay then, according to the second brother, the people on Jiangxin Island will not withdraw for the time being, let's take a look first..." Huang Taiji agreed with Amin's statement, although he felt a little bit unbearable, but, this Someone has to take the blame. In the current situation, it is obvious that no matter whether I withdraw or not, I am a loser. If I withdraw, I will no longer be able to block the river. The reinforcements from Zhenjiang Fort arrived at Zhenjiang Fort without hindrance. This responsibility He doesn't want to carry it; if he doesn't withdraw, the people trapped in the middle of the river will be seriously injured. He doesn't want to bear this responsibility. Regarding Min's problem, he is still a wise, capable, considerate and tolerant Khan.Although he lost the battle of Zhenjiang Fort, he still gained a lot in integrating his own Daikin.

In the sweat tent, Baylor, big and small, and the generals all breathed a sigh of relief. These two have not yet reached the point where they cannot fight.

There seemed to be a triumphant smile on Amin's squinting face.

"Okay, now that the strategy has been decided, let's act according to the strategy. Jiangxin's troops will not be withdrawn for the time being, and we will see the situation. The other places are still arranged as before." Huang Taiji didn't say anything, anyway, he had already picked himself up He went out and said calmly.

"Cha!" Baylor, big and small, the generals replied, and went out one after another.

……

Seeing that everyone had gone out, Huang Taiji showed a slight smile. There was bitterness in this smile. Although he picked himself out of this matter, no matter what, it was his big gold that lost, and it was all bad for his big gold. However, there is still a difference. It is also unfavorable to Da Jin, but the disadvantage to him is indeed different. Now, he has minimized the disadvantage to him, and solved the problem of Amin by the way. People who are "on equal footing" with themselves.

"Xiandou, tell me, now, is there any way to deal with the warships of the Ming Dynasty? Is there any way to prevent the warships of the Ming Dynasty from coming up?" Huang Taiji asked his counselor quietly when he saw that everyone had left.

"...Hui Dahan, Wen Cheng thought that the only thing that can stop the warships of the Ming Dynasty from coming up is God, or God..." Fan Wencheng thought for a long time and said.

"Oh! What's the explanation?" Huang Taiji asked puzzled.

"Back to the big sweat, the warships of the Ming Dynasty need to rely on the wind to come up. If the gods favor my Dajin and stop the wind, then it will be difficult for those warships to come up. Although there are still some centipede ships, but the centipede The things that the boat can carry must be limited. Wen Cheng has observed that the waterway from Linjiang Village to Zhenjiang Fort is less than twenty miles away. The waterway is narrow and the current is faster than other places. If there is no wind, or the wind is weak, or It's because the wind is not right, this section of the waterway will be able to prevent most of the warships from the Ming Dynasty from coming up..." Fan Wencheng said.

"...That is to say, it depends on whether God will help you or not?" Huang Taiji asked.

"Yes, sweat!" Fan Wencheng said.

"Then if God favors, wouldn't Jiang Xin's troops need to be withdrawn?" Huang Taiji asked again.

"It's okay! Khan, even if God favors you, it can't stop Mao Wenlong's centipede boats. Those boats don't need the wind, and they can still come up without wind. The people in the middle of the river..." Fan Wencheng is not optimistic about Dajin's boat on the water. In terms of ability, I always feel empty in my heart, and I always feel that it is inappropriate to be stationed in Jiangxin.

Before the words were finished, there was another noise outside: "Report!...", a long shout broke the tranquility in the rain.

Hearing the anxious shout outside, Huang Taiji felt bad.

"What's the matter?" Huang Taiji asked impatiently.

"Report! Master, it's not good. The warships of the Ming Dynasty are coming up. There are probably no less than two hundred cannons on those warships. They have already arrived at Linjiang Village. Now they are firing everywhere, ready to go up... "The cavalryman who sent the order was covered in mud, and his whole body was already soaked, and the rain running down his face covered his flustered expression.

A thunderbolt exploded in the sky!It exploded with a bang.

Huang Taiji felt that this thunderbolt seemed to hit him, and there were no less than two hundred cannons, which still greatly underestimated the cannons of the Ming Dynasty.

Huang Taiji glanced at Fan Wencheng fiercely, and found that Fan Wencheng's face was also full of horror!Ming Dynasty people had too many cannons...

Huang Taiji managed to calm down his mind, and told himself not to panic, not to be chaotic, the more this happened, the more calm he should be.

……

Didn't think long.

"Let's go!..." After Huang Taiji finished speaking, he went out of the sweat tent. Outside the sweat tent, many Baylors and generals gathered outside the sweat tent, waiting for Huang Taiji's dispatch. When they heard the news, they were all stunned. He was even more surprised when he ran out profusely, and then he watched his profusely get on his horse and rush into the rain without looking back.

Khan was dispatched, followed by more and more people, Baylor, big and small, and the generals followed Huang Taiji and ran wildly in the rain.

Amin just got the news that at least [-] cannons were fired by the Ming Dynasty people, and their power was really overwhelming, and he remembered what he said in the sweat tent just now that the people in the middle of the river would not be withdrawn..., His slanted eyes were full of anger and resentment, and he followed the team, running wildly in the muddy rain, to see for himself what was going on, whether there were really two hundred cannons.

……

On Zhenjiang Fort.

The rain has been falling, washing the dark brown city wall, and after washing, a trace of bright red can still be seen in the water that flows out.

The fighting has already stopped, and in this kind of rain, it is impossible to attack the city.Zhenjiang Fort finally ushered in the rare quiet these past few days.

In the rain, Mao Wenlong was wearing a coir raincoat, with his followers, and the generals checked the situation.

"It's raining!" Mao Wenlong said with a smile. The beard on his face hadn't been washed for many days. The rain washed Mao Wenlong's black face and took away the mud. Looking at his face, it was cleaner than before. .

"Hey..., Commander-in-Chief, it's finally quiet!" Mao Da followed closely behind Mao Wenlong, also laughing.

"Yeah! Commander, it's raining. Lord Lei and the others, it's time to act! Hehe, did you hear that, Commander? It's faint, as if a cannon is being fired..." Zhang Heng also let the rain wash his face, From time to time, he rubbed his face with his hands. A layer of mud could be removed from the face that had not been washed for many days. While rubbing the mud, he said happily.

"Hehehe, Staff Officer Zhang is right. I figured that the downstream is on the move. Hehehe, this time, the Tartars lost... I just hope the rain won't stop too early..." Mao Wenlong said happily, the rain Yes, he won [-]% of this gamble.

"Huh..., what's that? There seem to be a lot of Tartars running downstream... It looks like it must be Huang Taiji..." Mao Dazheng was holding up a binoculars to observe the situation of the distant mountain. , seemed to be able to see some figures galloping past. In this rainy day, so many gorgeously dressed Tartars were running wildly downwards, which naturally attracted Mao Da's attention.

"Oh, let me take a look." Mao Wenlong also raised his binoculars to observe.Everyone with binoculars in their hands raised them up to observe.

"Hehe, what do I think it is? I guess the two imperial envoys are moving downstream. I guess they are scaring the tartars. The tartars are going to see what happened. Heh heh heh, there are hundreds of cannons. The tartars can't even think of it..." Mao Wenlong only looked at it for a while, then put away the binoculars, and said with a smile.

Everyone laughed.
