Signed to Zhu Cihong, Prince of the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 173 Chapter 173, Prince Zheng suspected Hauge, Zhu Cihong came to Jinzhou

Jinzhou.

Ji Erhalang's face was very ugly, and he led a group of people hurriedly through the corridor.

Five days have passed since the failure outside Ningyuan City, but Jierhalang obviously still has not let go of this failure.

Of the 1 Manchu Qing soldiers, more than [-] were lost this time!

Among these 1 people, there are many elites from the Eight Banners of Manchuria.

That is to say, Jierhalang retreated in time, and the counterattack at Dead Dog Mountain blocked the pursuit of the Ming army, otherwise the number of casualties would have at least doubled.

As the assistant king of the Qing Dynasty, this kind of record is obviously absolutely unacceptable.

Jierharang urgently needs to shirk responsibility, and needs a scapegoat to help him take the blame.

Who is this scapegoat?
Jierharang believes that Hauge is a very good candidate.

After walking through the long corridor, there is a small building behind a large house.

Jirhalang walked straight into the small building and came to a room on the second floor.

The room was filled with a strong smell of medicine. There was a doctor in the room. After seeing Jierhalang, he quickly stood up and saluted Jierhalang.

Jierhalang was noncommittal and walked directly to the bed.

Hauge was lying on the bed, unconscious, his eyes closed and his face pale.

Jirharang stared at Haug for a while, then turned around and waved to the doctor, gesturing for him to follow him out.

In the corridor outside the room, Jierharang stared at the doctor and said coldly, "How did Haugbeile get his injury?"

The doctor hurriedly said: "Returning to Prince Zheng, Haogebaile should have been injured by a firecracker, hitting his abdomen."

"Abdomen?" Jierhalang thought thoughtfully.

The doctor nodded: "Yes, just a little bit, Haugbeile couldn't be rescued."

Jilharang's hand suddenly placed on the doctor's body and said coldly: "Do you know what the result of lying to me will be? Your whole family will die."

The doctor's body was shaking so much that he almost knelt down to Jierhalang on the spot: "Prince Zheng, you really didn't lie. If Prince Zheng doesn't believe it, you can go to other doctors to verify it."

Ji Erhalang stared at the doctor, the stern expression in his eyes slowly receding.

After a while, Jierhalang asked: "Is this fire gun from the Qing Dynasty or the Ming Dynasty?"

The doctor looked bewildered and shook his head again and again.

Jierharang was dumb for a moment, and suddenly slapped the doctor hard on the face, slapping the doctor until his eyes were full of stars.

Jierharang turned and went downstairs.

When everyone who stayed downstairs saw Jierhalang coming down, they immediately gathered around him.

"Prince Zheng, how is the situation?"

"Is Big Baylor all right?"

"Is it a fraud?"

Jierhalang was not the only one who doubted Hauge. In other words, everyone present could not let go of this failure and needed someone to take the blame.

Jilharang's face was very ugly, and after a while he said: "At the moment, it seems that there is no clear evidence of Hauge's betrayal."

Jierhalang was indeed very suspicious of Hauge. After all, Jierhalang knew that Hauge had contact with the top management of Ming Dynasty before.

However, after all, Hauge is also Huang Taiji's eldest son and Nurhachi's eldest grandson. If such a person would really let the Ming army down on the battlefield, it seems that he really can't justify it.

Therefore, in the absence of clear evidence, Jilharang really has no good way to deal with Hauge.

The main general was injured, and his subordinates retreated to protect the main, at best they killed a few Hauge's generals, and the responsibility really couldn't be shifted to Hauge.

Jierhalang was upset and said, "Okay, let's all go back!"

He needs some time to find a substitute for the dead ghost again, and think carefully about how to shirk responsibility!
Just as Jierhalang left the small building, he almost bumped into someone.

Jierhalang was furious and was about to get angry when he saw that the person coming was actually his son Jidu, so he had to forcefully hold back and said coldly, "Why are you so flustered!"

Jidu looked panicked, and said to Jierhalang: "Father, it is like this, the Ming army, the Ming army has already killed Jinzhou city!"

"What?" After Jidu's voice fell, the expressions of Jierhalang and the many Manchu generals behind him changed drastically.

They really didn't expect that the Ming army came so fast!
Outside Jinzhou City, Zhu Cihong watched Jinzhou City with a smile on his lips.

"I am back again!"

Just half a month ago, Zhu Cihong also visited Jinzhou, but at that time he only had [-] cavalry under his command.

The situation is different now, Zhu Cihong came with the main force of the [-] Ming army, and also brought the Hongyi Cannon!

The voice of the system sounded at the right time: "Congratulations to the host for completing the sign-in. The sign-in task is triggered: stay within ten miles of Jinzhou City for more than fifteen days."

After hearing this, Zhu Cixi suddenly felt a little confused.

Stay for fifteen days?
What is this for?
Zhu Cihong thought about it, and then decided not to.

According to normal logic, the tasks released by the system are all beneficial to Zhu Cihong.

No need to delve into it.

Therefore, Zhu Cihong smiled at Li Guozhen who was beside him: "Uncle Xiangcheng, let the artillerymen hurry up and work hard later, and try to shoot Jinzhou City tomorrow!"

Li Guozhen hesitated for a moment and then said to Zhu Cihong: "Your Highness really plans to attack the city?"

Zhu Cihong smiled and said, "No."

Li Guozhen wondered: "Then why did you fire the cannon?"

Zhu Cixiang's smile became more and more cheerful: "Nothing else, I just want to say hello to Jierhalang and let him know that I am chasing him!"

Did Jierhalang know that Zhu Cihong was coming?

Of course you know.

But even so, when Jilhalang was woken up by a loud rumbling sound in the early morning of the next day, he was still very unhappy.

"What's going on?" Jierharang roared angrily.

Soon, Jierhalang got the reward: "Prince Zheng, the Ming army is bombarding our city wall with cannons!"

Jierhalang: "..."

At this moment, Jierhalang really wanted to rush out and fight to the death with Zhu Cixiang again!

But reason told him that this was not possible.

Perhaps the war outside Ningyuan City was indeed a hair's breadth away, but if you lose, you lose. The facts are in front of you.

Right now, the morale of the Qing army is far from being restored, but the Ming army is taking advantage of the victory.

If there were another decisive battle at this moment, the Qing army's winning rate would definitely not exceed [-]%!
Jierhalang gritted his teeth, and after a moment he said: "Send the order and ask the people below to guard the city wall for me!"

After his subordinates sent the orders, Jierharang sat down at the desk and began to write furiously.

He had to inform Shengjing of the situation in Jinzhou, and Shengjing had to respond quickly.

If this continues, Jinzhou...may really be lost!
