Chapter 940 939 Opportunities in Crisis (Third Update)

Anyone who is not blind can see Huang Taiji's passion for Hai Lanzhu, his eyes are simply naked. In this case, no matter how close they were, there would be no good feelings between them.

Therefore, when Hai Lanzhu tried to persuade her aunt and sister to return to Horqin Grassland, she received no reply and her attitude became even colder. Her aunt even hinted at a hint in her words. The Qing Dynasty was very poor right now, so she might as well go back to the grassland as soon as possible because she was afraid that she would not be well received.

This result made Hai Lanzhu very sad and disappointed. She was helpless and knew that she couldn't stay long, something big was about to happen, so she had to go back to the grassland early. Of course, she didn't say hello to Huang Taiji at all, otherwise she wouldn't know what would happen.

Regarding this point, Hailanzhu actually worried too much. At this time, Huang Taiji had long forgotten the love between his children and was anxious to convene a group of his ministers to urgently discuss the military situation ahead.

Originally, he still wanted Daishan to fight the Ming army in Haizhou. Unexpectedly, the Ming army turned out to be three large armies, led by Governor Denglai himself, and also brought more than ten Hongyi cannons. With such powerful artillery, what other city can be called strong?

At this moment, they all realized that the form of war in the future would change. It would no longer be the previous war model that required three times the number of troops to attack a city and how many lives were lost under the city.

As for the Qing Dynasty, in terms of firearms, it was far behind the Ming Dynasty. Most of the firearms currently owned by the Qing Dynasty were captured by the Ming army when they conquered Liaodong.

"Your Majesty is right in Liaoyang. To defeat the current Ming army, we can no longer rely on rejecting the city and defending it!" Jierhalang said with a serious face, "When the Ming army is marching into Liaoyang, gather the army and look for opportunities." Defeat the Ming army in a decisive battle."

At this time, Jianlu still had confidence in the army's field operations. After all, they are all people who have experienced battles for a long time. Regarding the battle under Gaizhou City, in hindsight, it was probably because they were too anxious and committed various taboos, which led to a complete defeat.

Therefore, after hearing Jierhalang's suggestion, many Jianlu nodded and agreed with this resolution. Huang Taiji also felt that this was the only way to go, but he was still very sorry. Now it was really the critical moment to recuperate and recuperate. Once this army was mobilized, its vitality would be greatly damaged. If it were not too close to Shenyang, he might really think twice about returning to Shenyang. Give up some places.

Just when Huang Taiji was about to nod and issue an order, he saw Fan Wencheng saying: "Your Majesty, I think that we can paralyze the Ming army and enable them to successfully advance to Liaoyang City. When they attack the city, our army will attack and cut off their retreat." , and then cooperate with the inside and outside of Liaoyang City. In this way, we can destroy the Ming army with minimal losses, and take advantage of the trend to go south and recapture Anshan Posthouse. It is even possible to use the captured Hongyi cannons to conquer Haizhou, Gaizhou, and Jinzhou. And take it back..."

His words made Jianlu's eyes light up.

"...If there really are no Hongyi cannons on the Guan-Ning front line, and only I, the Qing Dynasty, have captured the Hongyi cannons, we should attack Ningjin with lightning speed, and rush to transport the Hongyi cannons from the pass before the Ming army Before leaving the border, fight tooth for tooth and bombard these cities with Hongyi cannon!"

After Fan Wencheng finished speaking, he stood there respectfully with his head lowered, waiting for Huang Taiji's opinion. But he felt quite proud in his heart, because judging from the situation present, he was the only one who could see the good opportunities that existed in the current crisis.

After he finished speaking, the Chongzheng Hall was very quiet for a while. The Jianlu present could not help but be shocked by Fan Wencheng's suggestion of turning defeat into victory, which was very likely to reverse the disadvantages of the past two years and further expand the power of the Qing Dynasty.

"Okay, Your Majesty, this is indeed an opportunity!" Dai Shan, as the head of all the ministers, was the first to agree.

Even Jierharang, who is known for his wisdom, nodded his head and said: "Your Majesty, this battle is to defeat the invading Ming army in one fell swoop, then decide it quickly and complete the next battle as quickly as possible. The preparation in advance must be sufficient. That’s it!”

Yue Tuo also looked excited, and then interjected: "We must defeat the invading Ming army as soon as possible. Otherwise, once Guan Ning's Ming army transports the Hongyi cannon from the pass, the hope of defeating Ning Jin will be slim. "

Other leaders of Jianlu, such as Azige and others, were also excited and spoke individually, hoping to have their own place in this battle that could turn the world around. Even the deposed prince Hauge, who Huang Taiji had stipulated he could only listen to, couldn't help but interrupt. The atmosphere in Chongzheng Hall suddenly became heated without realizing it.

Huang Taiji was still able to keep his composure. Although his face was already filled with excitement, he still didn't speak immediately. He just listened to the "buzzing" sounds of the courtiers below. At the same time, he was naturally weighing it in his heart.

If we really want to fight as Fan Wencheng said, then we must mobilize all the troops of the Qing Dynasty and gather all the materials, just to win this battle, and respond quickly to attack Haizhou and Gaizhou , Jinzhou, Jinzhou and Ningyuan, and even Shanhaiguan. Jinzhou and Gaizhou can be left alone, but the line between Haizhou, Jinzhou, and Ningyuan must be fought as quickly as possible.

If this battle is really won as planned, the temptation of huge results will be too hard to refuse. But if you really do this, you will bet on the fate of the Qing Dynasty. All troops and supplies are concentrated in this battle. If anything changes, it will be doomed!

In the Chongzheng Hall, there was a heated discussion for a while, but Fan Wencheng kept silently pretending to be humble. Because he knew that he was the first to take credit, and as long as this battle was won, his credit would never be lost. If you show off too much at this time, you will be resented by these Manchu nobles and will not be offended.

Finally, when everyone in the palace expressed their opinions, became a little quiet, and looked at their emperor, Huang Taiji finally made a decision. No matter what, in this era, Huang Taiji can be regarded as a powerful and ambitious man. After weighing it, he said with a serious face: "This battle is related to the fate of the Qing Dynasty. I have decided to fight personally. According to my will, the whole country will be mobilized, and the Horqin tribe will also form an alliance as soon as possible to defeat the Ming army and seize Guanning!"

"Long live, long live, long live!" Everyone in the Chongzheng Hall shouted in unison, as if they had achieved the victory they wanted.

After the meeting, the mobilization order was issued, and all Jianlu over the age of fifteen were to go out for the war. Suddenly, with Shenyang as the center, Jianlu began to be in a state of chaos. After the meeting, Hauge returned to the mansion happily and happily announced his intention to the whole mansion. This audience naturally included Qian Fugui.
