Chapter 783: Shooting yourself in the foot

Do you think I don’t know this best idea? What about you?

Huang Taiji was grateful that the city was deep enough and he didn't reveal his inner thoughts. Then I thought about it and wondered, maybe Fan Wencheng has a good strategy to win the battle?

Thinking of this, he felt happy again, and asked with a little hope: "Does Fan Qing have a way to destroy the Gaizhou Ming Army?"

"I'm still thinking about it, but I don't have a good plan yet!" Fan Wencheng was slightly startled when he heard this. Thinking of the power of the Gaizhou Ming Army, he replied in a low voice.

When Huang Taiji heard this, he was very disappointed, but he asked again according to his temper: "Then Fan Qing has thought of a way to capture Jinzhou and destroy the Dongjiang Army?"

If this is true, this can be regarded as a big victory, and it can also effectively fight back against the rumors!

After hearing this, Fan Wencheng had a reply this time: "Your Majesty, I believe that the enemy of Jinzhou lies in maneuverability. It is better to take advantage of the frozen sea to surround Jinzhou first to prevent him from escaping back next year." The opportunities on the island are like this. When the Qing Dynasty is fully prepared, we can go to Jinzhou!"

This makes sense, but Jinzhou still has a certain fighting capacity under the leadership of Governor Denglai. The troops sent to Jinzhou cannot be too small or too weak. However, after the Qing Dynasty fought in Gaizhou, Where can we get so much supplies for a long-term siege?

So, he asked again: "Who does Fan Qing think should be sent, and how many troops and horses should be used to surround the enemies of Jinzhou?"

Fan Wencheng was not a fool. He felt a little dissatisfied from Huang Taiji's continuous questions. After all, Huang Taiji asked many questions, but he could not give him a satisfactory answer.

With this knowledge, Fan Wencheng felt a little anxious. However, he also knew Huang Taiji. He thought quickly and immediately replied: "Your Majesty, I thought that the two flags of North Korea could take on this responsibility. As long as Jinzhou is surrounded, North Korea will no longer be a threat, and naturally there is no need to send a large army to garrison it." ; On the other hand, the encirclement and suppression of the Jinzhou Ming Army is also for the good of North Korea. In this case, it is reasonable and reasonable to ask them to provide money and food, and even send people to work in Jinzhou!"

There is a key point that he did not say, that is, if this strategy is used, Huang Taiji's strength will not be consumed. It would be best if the two brothers Dorgon and Duoduo can conquer Jinzhou, which can also provide a strong counterattack to the rumors. If Jinzhou cannot be conquered, then Huang Taiji can also take the initiative and punish the two brothers Dorgon and Duduo. Those two banners were at war with the Jinzhou Dongjiang Army. If they were consumed, it would also be a good thing for Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji is also a smart man. After hearing Fan Wencheng propose this strategy, he immediately understood the benefits. He couldn't help but nodded in response to this strategy: "Fan Qing's strategy is in line with my wishes! You are worthy of being my gentleman." !”

"Your Majesty Miao Zan, you are so unworthy of being a slave!" Fan Wencheng was happy in his heart after hearing this, but he still said modestly on the surface.

Huang Taiji did not discuss the matter with him anymore. After thinking for a moment, he asked again: "It will take a while for this matter to come to an end, but there are rumors in Shenyang City. I am afraid that this rumor will not take root in people's hearts for a long time. Since Fan Qing has three strategies, why not tell them together and let me review them in detail!"

When Fan Wencheng heard this, he understood that the rumor was too great a threat to Huang Taiji. He was a little anxious, so he had to answer: "The best strategy for me is to send someone to announce the news and tell you that this year's great victory will be as good as the Qing Dynasty's control." North Korea!"

At this point, his voice rose slightly, and he immediately added: "This is something that even the previous Khans have never done. I think back then, the Ming Dynasty made great efforts to save Korea from Japanese pirates, but Now, the Ming Dynasty has nothing to do with the Qing Dynasty, allowing the Qing Dynasty to completely control North Korea. This is your Majesty's great achievement!"

When Huang Taiji heard this, he frowned slightly. Looking back now, Huang Taiji had a vague feeling that the Ming Dynasty did not seem to value North Korea as much as before, otherwise it would not have allowed the Qing Dynasty to control North Korea.

But the crux of the matter is that this happened before he ascended the throne and became emperor. Of course, if you insist on talking about it, you can do it, at least it can counter some of the content in the rumors. But generally speaking, Huang Taiji was not very satisfied with this strategy. No wonder Fan Wencheng only regarded this strategy as the middle strategy.

Huang Taiji thought this and asked again: "What's the next move?"

When Fan Wencheng heard the question about what to do, he hesitated a little, but under the gaze of Huang Taiji, he finally looked at the maids serving on the left and right first.

Huang Taiji saw his appearance and understood what he meant. He immediately turned away everyone and looked at him.

"Your Majesty, the next step is to find out the source, find the rumor mongers, and suppress them with thunderous means. In this way, the rumors will not get worse in the short term at least." Fan Wencheng replied cautiously, "I will pass through the Qing Dynasty in the future. In this material crisis, after we win one battle after another, no one will remember this rumor anymore. Even if they remember it, others will naturally know that it is a slanderous statement against His Majesty!"

No wonder it was a bad idea. This method not only caused the Qing Dynasty to fight against each other, but also only suppressed it for a while. But if there is really no other way, this method is indeed an option.

Huang Taiji thought this way in his heart. He was not a man of faith. In order to seize the throne, he could force his father's Fujin to die alive. Family ties and so on were all nonsense to him. He only considered whether this was the most beneficial thing for him.

After recalling the three strategies proposed by Fan Wencheng, Huang Taiji made a decision in his mind and said to Fan Wencheng: "Fan Qing is keeping an eye on the rumors. If it is absolutely necessary, Fan Qing needs to help!"

When Fan Wencheng heard this, he couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart. If this really happened, other Jianlu would still hate him to the core in the future. He felt like he had shot himself in the foot. However, Huang Taiji had already spoken, so he had no choice but to comply.

Huang Taiji then ordered him: "You first follow the advice of the best and draw up a decree. It is indeed time to get rid of the Dongjiang Army in Jinzhou!"

This was nothing. After hearing this, Fan Wencheng immediately agreed and prepared to conceive the content of the imperial edict. He first wrote a draft and showed it to Huang Taiji.

But at this moment, a servant outside the palace came to report that a messenger had arrived from North Korea.

This really means Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here. Huang Taiji immediately summoned a messenger to read Dorgon's memorial.

It's okay not to look at it. When he saw it, he couldn't help but get angry. He held the letter and slapped it directly on the imperial desk, making a "snap" sound, with an expression on his face that seemed to be cannibalistic.

Fan Wencheng next to him was startled, knowing that Huang Taiji was very angry at this time and didn't know what happened. But it was about North Korea, which might affect his drafting. After hesitating for a moment, he asked: "Your Majesty, I wonder what's in the letter?"
