Don't panic when traveling through the late Ming Dynasty, just go to Liangjian and buy a machin

Chapter 69: The Weak Jiannu

Go west.

That means fighting the Mongolian tribes.

Everyone listened to Dorgon's proposal.

Everyone thinks this suggestion is very good!

They definitely can't afford to offend Mao Wenlong.

As for the Ming Dynasty, we may not be able to gain any advantage by going there.

It is even likely to provoke Mao Wenlong to send troops.

Going west is completely different.

The people present were all arrogant and brave generals, and they did not take the Mongolian tribes seriously at all.

Just kill them and steal their cattle, sheep and women.

Supplies for the winter are available.

There is no need to take too much risk.

Daishan spoke up to support Dorgon: "I also agree with the westward advance. This is our best option at the moment."

Amin: "It is indeed more cost-effective to fight Mongolia than the Ming Dynasty."

Manggurtai: "I also agree to fight against the Mongolian tribes."

Aisin-Gioro Dorgon was the fourteenth son of Nurhaci and the younger brother of Huang Taiji.

This guy is not very old.

But he has made great achievements in battle and has a high prestige.

He was also the leader of the Bordered White Banner (later he exchanged banners with his brother Duoduo and became the leader of the Plain White Banner), and he had strong troops and powerful strength under his command.

He is considered a leader of the younger generation.

But this guy has never been very obedient to Huang Taiji.

Daishan, Amin and Manggurtai who spoke out in support of Dorgon.

He was once one of the four great beiles under Nurhaci, along with Huang Taiji, and was Nurhaci's right-hand man.

His status in the Later Jin Dynasty was quite high.

Except Huang Taiji.

These people can be said to be the most powerful people in the Later Jin Dynasty.

Several people disagreed with Huang Taiji's proposal.

This made Huang Taiji feel even more threatened.

So Huang Taiji looked at Fan Wencheng.

Because the strategy of sending troops south this time was discussed in advance by Huang Taiji and Fan Wencheng.

The result was opposition from everyone.

Huang Taiji wanted Fan Wencheng to speak up and support him, and to find a way to convince others...

Big traitor Fan Wencheng: "My dear princes, although attacking the Mongolian tribes seems to be more cost-effective, the consequences are very serious.

Please think about it, what would happen if the Mongolian tribes directly joined forces with the Ming court in the face of our attack?

By then, there will be Mongolia in the west, the Ming Dynasty in the south, and Mao Wenlong in the east. If that happens, our situation will be even more difficult..."

Dai Shan shouted, "Shut up, you damned bastard! You have no right to interfere in such a military and national affair. If you dare to say another word, I will chop off your head..."

Daishan scolded Fan Wencheng without any politeness.

And reached out and grasped the hilt of the knife.

He looks like he's ready to draw his knife and chop someone at any time.

Fan Wencheng was so frightened that his face turned pale...

Daishan was Nurhaci's second son and once his heir.

But later he was deposed as heir.

Huang Taiji was appointed as the successor.

After Nurhaci's death, Daishan was forced to support Huang Taiji due to the situation at the time.

But this doesn't mean that he is really willing to give in!

So this guy really dared to kill someone in front of Huang Taiji...

Huang Taiji quickly shouted in a deep voice: "Don't threaten or intimidate others at will. We are discussing matters here. Everyone can speak out if they have different ideas. How can we stop people from speaking?"

Daishan loosened his grip on the hilt of the knife.

He snorted coldly and stopped staring at Fan Wencheng.

But after such a commotion.

Fan Wencheng didn't dare to speak easily anymore.

Dorgon said: "I think the problem Mr. Fan just mentioned does not exist at all. If the Mongolian tribes dare to join forces with the Ming Dynasty, then we should just destroy them!

You must know that although the Central Plains dynasty seemed powerful and had invaded the grasslands outside the Great Wall many times in history, it had never formed effective rule on the grasslands.

So what do we have to be afraid of? The land outside the Great Wall is vast and boundless. As long as we have a horse under our crotch and a sword in our hands, we don’t have to care about the Mongols’ thoughts at all, nor do we have to worry about them joining forces with the Ming Dynasty…”

Aixinjuelu Daishan: "Fourteenth brother is right, the current Ming Dynasty is corrupt, even if they join forces with Mongolia, what can they do?

Do they dare to give up the advantage of terrain and come to the outside of the pass to fight us in the field? They would be courting death..."

Aixinjuelu Haoge: "That being said, our biggest enemy is the Ming Dynasty. As long as we scare the Ming Dynasty, the Mongolian tribes will definitely not dare to make any moves.

If we can even subdue the Mongolian tribes, it will be a great help to us..."

Haoge was the eldest son of Huang Taiji.

He was also the leader of the Bordered Yellow Banner and was a few years older than Dorgon.

His military exploits and talents are not weak in all aspects.

So even though he is a junior.

But no one dared to underestimate his importance.

After Hauge spoke up for support.

Then many generals spoke up to support Huang Taiji.

Then the two sides started arguing back and forth.

Anyway, no one can convince anyone else.

Huang Taiji was very worried about this.

The original plan was that as soon as Mao Wenlong died, he would lead the cavalry of the Later Jin Dynasty and join forces with the Mongolian tribes to attack the interior.

He can use his outstanding military achievements to consolidate his position.

The huge amount of wealth obtained can also be used to unite people's hearts.

As a result, Mao Wenlong is still alive and well, and his power is growing.

The contradictions within the Later Jin Dynasty began to become increasingly prominent.

The most important flaw is that their population is too small.

If you are not careful, you will fall into internal separation.

——The Later Jin Dynasty simply cannot withstand internal friction!

At this time, the Later Jin seemed powerful.

In fact, it is very weak.

This kind of force has developed entirely through burning, killing and looting.

Once there is no way to continue burning, killing and looting.

Internal problems will immediately erupt.

And the situation will take a sharp turn for the worse, and will inevitably start to go downhill...

But others just can't see the potential crisis.

He had to go against Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji had no other choice but to patiently persuade his generals one by one.

The result came before they could reach an agreement.

Suddenly received news from the front line.

It is said that Mao Wenlong's troops marched northward in large numbers...

……

After receiving the message.

Huang Taiji quickly summoned civil and military officials.

Discuss countermeasures.

This time there is no need to argue whether to go south or west.

Let’s get through this hurdle first!

After a brief discussion.

The Later Jin also sent out three armies.

The Southern Army was led by Manggurtai, with Hauge as his deputy, and they were accompanied by the generals Aisin-Gioro Babutai and Aisin-Gioro Ajige.

This group of troops was mainly used to guard against the Ming army.

At the same time, we must prevent Mao Wenlong's troops from landing on the coast of Bohai Bay.

The central army was led by Daishan as commander-in-chief, with the fifteen-year-old Aisin-Gioro Duoduo as deputy commander-in-chief, and the general Aisin-Gioro Bohetuo accompanying him.

The central army headed eastward towards the front battlefield.

Prepare to confront Mao Wenlong's troops head-on.

The Northern Army was led by Amin as the commander-in-chief, Dorgon as the deputy commander-in-chief, and accompanied by the generals Aisin-Gioro Ekeqin and Guwalgiya Oboi.

The Northern Army must guard against Mao Wenlong's troops.

They landed in Hongwon, Kimchaek and other places in the north of the Korean Peninsula.

And assisted the central army led by Daishan in the battle.

Huang Taiji was stationed in Shenyang to command the overall situation.

Actually!

Huang Taiji knew it very well.

In all likelihood, they are no match for Mao Wenlong.

So the war hasn't officially started yet.

Huang Taiji was already doing it in secret.

Quietly preparing to "go west"!

Because Huang Taiji knew better than anyone how weak the Later Jin was at that time.

If Mao Wenlong really launched a full-scale attack.
