Chapter 296 Huang Taiji's Interest in Liu Meng

When Huang Taiji knew that the Ming army defeated Jierhalang's 2000 troops with only more than 5000 troops, Huang Taiji's face was gloomy and terrifying.

On the forehead of Jierharang who was kneeling on the ground, beads of sweat the size of beans could not help but appear.

He knew that this old man was cruel and scheming.

How Huang Taiji ascended to power, and how he consolidated his position, he is very clear.

And in this defeat, he was really afraid that Huang Taiji would use his own sword and kill him to sacrifice the flag.

When Jierhalang was feeling uneasy, Huang Taiji, who was sitting at the top, asked in a deep voice:

"Jierhalang, you said that the small Ming army used a new type of firecracker that they had never seen before? That firecracker fires extremely fast and is powerful, is it true?"

Hearing the words, Jierhalang dared not hide anything, and hurriedly nodded affirmatively and said:
"Khan, how dare the servant expire you! It is because of the new firearm that the servant's troops suffered such heavy losses! Khan, you don't know!

Even our heavy infantry was killed within 50 meters with their shields up!The power of the firecracker is really too much. . .incredible! "

After finishing speaking, Jierharang, who was kneeling on the ground, put his head on the ground, and peeked at the reaction of Huang Taiji who had been gloomy.

Unexpectedly, Huang Taiji did not lose his temper, but kept thinking about something.

In fact, Huang Taiji did have a strong interest in Liu Meng's troops.

Don't say that during the Manchu Qing Dynasty, firecrackers were not valued. In fact, Huang Taiji attached great importance to firecrackers and artillery.

During the siege battle, he suffered a lot from the Ming army's artillery and firecrackers. If those Ming army's firecrackers were not too bad, he would not have dared to attack the Ming Dynasty so rampantly.

There is no way, because of the corruption of the guards and officials of the Ming Dynasty, the soldiers did not have decent weapons and equipment, and they couldn't even eat enough, so where did they get the training.

On the battlefield, the firecrackers, which were supposed to play a huge role, were due to these reasons. They were not fired when the Tartar cavalry charged a hundred steps away, resulting in no chance to fire a second shot, and they were defeated;
If it weren't for those soldiers who served as cannon fodder and blocked the lead bullets, the Ming army would not have been bullied by the 10 post-gold tartars to the present level.

In short, the demise of the Ming Dynasty is inevitable, so I won't say much here.

Although Huang Taiji became interested in Liu Meng's troops, he still didn't intend to give up attacking Zunhua City and take down Zunhua City. His mission of leaving the customs this time can be regarded as fulfilling one-third of his strategic goal.

Zunhua City is a big city, and there are not a few people with food and supplies in it. With this result, those Baylor ministers who opposed him will no longer oppose him. After all, they have seen real benefits, right?

As for Liu Meng's small Ming army, Huang Taiji planned to ask Fan Wencheng to find a way to get in touch with the generals of the Ming army, and it would be best if he could use them for his own use, which was the ending he wanted most.

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji waved Jierharang out of the big tent, and cast a glance at Fan Wencheng who was in the tent all the time but said nothing.

When Fan Wencheng saw Huang Taiji looking over, he guessed Huang Taiji's plan, but he felt a little nervous. He didn't want to meet the general of the Ming army, but he had to stand up and kneel in front of Huang Taiji, waiting for Huang Taiji to speak.

You must know that Dongjiang Town has always been Hou Jin's confidant, and the hatred with Hou Jin is also extremely deep.

The original Mao Wenlong was lucky to say that even if he often entered the Houjin site and harassed the place, he was not so destructive.

But this army is different. Seeing that he dared to fight a flag of Tartars head-on and defeated Jierhalang, he would not be a simple person.

Such a ruthless person, if he goes to surrender himself, will he be killed by that person?

Huang Taiji also saw Fan Wencheng's fear. To be honest, he was really reluctant to let Fan Wencheng die. This is a good dog!

At the same time, it was also to set a benchmark for the ministers of the Ming Dynasty. With him, it would be twice the result with half the effort to subdue those officials of the Ming Dynasty.

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji said in a deep voice:

"Fan Aiqing, arrange someone to contact that Ming army team, and see if you can persuade him to join me in Houjin! As for the conditions...let him go!"

After finishing speaking, Huang Taiji waved Fan Wencheng out to make arrangements immediately.

Hearing this, Fan Wencheng heaved a sigh of relief, and immediately knelt respectfully and said:
"Cha! The slaves take orders!"

After finishing speaking, Fan Wencheng stood up, stooped and exited the big tent, went to find his confidants, and immediately went to see the general of the Ming army.

It has to be said that Fan Wencheng really knew himself. If he really went to find Liu Meng, Liu Meng would definitely kill him without hesitation.

You know, in history, the Ming Dynasty would not have perished so quickly if it hadn't been for the Han people who conspired to recruit officials to surrender everywhere.

Many ideas were given to Huang Taiji by him, and many generals and ministers of the Ming Dynasty were also recruited by him.

If he could have been killed earlier, Liu Meng really didn't care about that shitty reputation.

Besides, the Guanning iron cavalry who left did not go to support Zunhua. Instead, according to Yuan Chonghuan's strategic deployment, they went to Tongzhou and other places to gather Qin Wang's army, preparing to intercept Huang Taiji's army.

Liu Meng's scout came back and told Liu Meng the news, and Liu Meng was not surprised at all when he got the report.

Even he himself did not dare to support Zunhua, let alone a mere Zu Dashou.

He himself is very helpless!He intends to kill thieves and save the people, but his strength does not allow him!If only I had come two or three years earlier to fully grasp the Dongjiang army!

Why!Liu Meng could only sigh helplessly, cheered up and continued to deal with Huang Taiji.

In the next few months, wouldn't there be many peripheral post-gold tartars to kill?How much can you kill?

After staying outside Zunhua City for more than ten days, without accident, Zunhua City fell on the fourth day of November, Wang Yuanya, governor of Shuntian, and Zhu Guoyan, chief officer of Jizhen, died.

Huang Taiji led a large force to plunder the supplies in the city, and continued to advance towards Beijing with the looted population in the city.

When the news came back to the city, Emperor Chongzhen, who became angry from embarrassment, arrested Wang Qia, Minister of the Ministry of War, on the tenth day of November, and Sun Chengzong was appointed Minister of the Ministry of War and a scholar of the Zhongji Temple to preside over the defense of Tongzhou.

It's a pity that when the Ming army gathered in Tongzhou City, Huang Taiji led his troops to bypass Tongzhou City and appeared outside the capital to roam the border.

Liu Meng made full use of his scouts to evade Huang Taiji's large army, specifically looking for Niu Lu who was alone, and intercepted and killed many Tartars Niulu, and took the heads of many Tartars.

This behavior gave Huang Taiji a headache, let's divide the army to surround and kill Liu Meng!Liu Meng is as slippery as a loach, as long as the number of people going to encircle and suppress exceeds [-], Liu Meng will avoid his edge and choose to back down.

Leave him alone!Liu Meng was like a leech, as soon as he set his sights on Niulu, a Tartar who was alone, he would charge back and eat this small army without any hesitation.
