Mercenaries of the Heavens

Chapter 208 Huang Taiji's Response
Hearing Wang Zhi's words, the three of them clasped their fists in joy and said:

"Thank you, Governor, for your promotion! We will do our best for you! I will die!"

Wang Zhi waved his hand and said:
"Okay, I won't be greedy for your credit! Don't worry, just follow me! Let's all go down! Set up the soldiers, clean the battlefield, and watch the prisoners!"

All the generals in the handsome tent bowed together and said:

"Yes! Your lord!"

After everyone left the tent together, Gang Zi and others gathered around and asked Wang Zhi:
"Captain! There are so many prisoners, what should we do? Should we keep them in custody?"

Hearing Gangzi's words, Wang Zhi also frowned, pondered for a while before saying:

"No, they are all old people, women and children! Even the grown-up soldiers have been terrified, they are no longer a threat to us! Our top priority is to go to Shengjing and kill Huang Taiji!"

Hearing Wang Zhi's words, the three of Gangzi nodded in unison, agreeing with Wang Zhi's words.

After that, the army rested in the camp of Mangurtai for a day. On the second day, the army continued to march towards Shengjing, the imperial capital of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties.

At this time, Huang Taiji had received a report from the fleeing soldiers, and knew that Wang had led more than 4 elite soldiers to invade the Manqing Pass, and was calling the remaining two banner owners and his subordinate Gu Shan to discuss countermeasures.

In Huang Taiji's palace, Dai Shan, the owner of Zhenghong Banner, Dai Min, the owner of Xianghong Banner, and Huang Taiji control the remaining Zhenghuang Banner and Xianghuang Banner;
Huang Taiji, who is the emperor, of course cannot personally command the two banners, and Gu Shan Ezhen of the two banners will command them.

Zhenghuang Banner Gu Shan Ezhen was Oboi, who was known as the number one warrior of the Qing Dynasty. He was 28 years old at the time, and he was in his prime.

Xianghuangqi Gushan's forehead is really Shuotuo, a powerful man who is second only to Aobai in bravery and second only to Dorgon in wisdom.

The four of them sat under Huang Taiji's head, and Huang Taiji asked:
"Nowadays, people from the Ming Dynasty dare to invade my Manqing customs. How do you deal with it?"

Aobai snorted disdainfully:
"Hmph, what is there to say! Just lead someone to destroy their 5 people! Your Majesty, give me 5 horses, and I will definitely destroy them outside the pass!"

Shuo Tuo shook his head and said softly:

"Oboi, you underestimate these Ming troops! Let me ask you, how do you deal with their new firearms? Prince Dorgon's [-] troops are not easy to defeat! Besides, in that battle, Ming The Army didn't actually lose many men!"

Hearing Shuotuo's words, Dai Shan and Dai Min all nodded in agreement, but they didn't say how to deal with it!
Aobai looked simple and straightforward, but he was also a scheming person, when he heard Shuotuo's words, he didn't refute, but just snorted heavily.

Huang Taiji sat at the head, his face gradually darkened, seeing that several people did not come up with a feasible strategy, he couldn't help but think to himself:
I think I, Huang Taiji, was also a generation of Ming lords, who set their capital in Shengjing, continuously invaded the declining Ming Dynasty, and worked hard for the Manchus to rule the Central Plains!
I thought that when Emperor Chongzhen came to the throne, the officials of the Ming Dynasty were corrupt and afraid of death. As long as the Qing Dynasty continues to erode the land of the Ming Dynasty and rob resources, it will definitely eat up this behemoth of the Ming Dynasty little by little!

But I don't know where such a Ming army came out, and it has amazing fighting power!In just a few years, I have wiped out the Four Banners under my command, which is a serious problem for my number one confidant in the Qing Dynasty!

Now, judging by the posture of the Ming army, it is going to attack me in Shengjing and destroy the foundation of my Qing Dynasty!
What can I do?If we avoid fighting instead of fighting, the Qing Dynasty will no longer have the courage to invade Ming Dynasty; if we fight, how will we deal with the advanced firearms of the Ming army?

So, what are the advantages and disadvantages of this firearm?

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

"Shuotuo! You are a rare wise man in the Qing Dynasty! What are the advantages and disadvantages of the firearms of the Ming army?"

Hearing Huang Taiji's question, Shuotuo bowed his head and thought for a while, then said quietly:
"Your Majesty! This firearm of the Ming Dynasty has no advantages at all! Its reloading speed is slow and its range is limited. It is not a fear of rainy days!

But now the firearms of this Ming army are unpredictable!Listening to the description of the soldiers who escaped, the firearms they used were amazing!The shooting range can reach [-] steps, and it can shoot eight times in a row!
The most frightening thing is that its reload speed is quite fast, and it only takes one breath to re-launch!It's unbelievable!And the more powerful artillery greatly limited the advantage of my Qing cavalry group's charge!
Why!to be honest!Your Majesty, I don't know how to deal with them either! "

Hearing Shuotuo's narration, both Dai Shan and Dai Minju were downcast, and even the brave Oboi didn't say a word, obviously he was helpless against the Ming army's firearms!
Huang Taiji clenched his right hand tightly into a fist in his robe, clenched his teeth, and slapped the armrest of the dragon chair heavily with his left hand, saying in a hateful voice:

"This is not a reason for us to be afraid! This Ming army has already defeated our Qing Dynasty Four Banners. Judging from what they have done, they came directly to Shengjing!
If we don't wipe them out of the pass, I, the Qing Dynasty, will never think of robbing gold and silver goods in the pass from now on, let alone conquer the Central Plains one day! "

Hearing Huang Taiji's words, Obai stood up excitedly, knelt down on both knees with a bang, knocked his head on the ground, buried his head and shouted:
"It was because the emperor fought to the death with this Ming army! It was because the Qing Dynasty ruled the Central Plains without hesitation!"

Seeing Ao Bai's actions, Dai Shan, Dai Min, and Shuo Tuo secretly hated Ao Bai for his life and death!But he also knew that if he didn't make a statement at this time, Huang Taiji would definitely trouble himself and the others afterwards!In desperation, they had to kneel together and shouted:

"I died for the emperor! Destroy this Ming army!"

Seeing this, Huang Taiji was quite satisfied with the actions of the four of them!It is impossible to flee without fighting, we must plan to wipe out this Ming army outside the pass!Otherwise, let's talk about the rise of He Daqing, let alone occupy the Huahua Jiangshan in the Central Plains!
After making up his mind, Huang Taiji sat on the dragon chair, waved and said:
"Get up! Fighting is a must! But you can't rush forward recklessly! You can only use tricks!"

The four heard Huang Taiji's words, and said in their mouths:

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

Standing up, the four of them sat down in their seats, watching Huang Taiji and waiting for him to say a countermeasure.

Huang Taiji stroked the armrest of the dragon chair with his left hand, thought for a while before saying:

"My warriors of the Qing Dynasty are unparalleled in cavalry and archery. As long as this Ming army is led into the Jedi and their firearms can't give full play to their advantages, there is still a chance of winning this battle!"

After speaking, Huang Taiji stood up, walked to the map next to the wall and looked carefully.

The four of Shuotuo also stood up and followed behind Huang Taiji, looking up at the map on the wall.

After a while, Huang Taiji pointed to a valley on the map and said to the four:
"This is it! The valley is wide and there is no cover, but the mountains on both sides are densely covered with trees, which is good for hiding! As long as they are lured into it, they will be completely wiped out!"

Shuotuo looked at where Huang Taiji pointed, and murmured:
"Burning Dragon Mountain! This is a good place!"
