This winter, the sack on the Zhangba grassland was very troubled. One month after retreating from the Jurchen Western Expedition Army to Liaodong, unknown troops rushed to Hetao one after another.

After Lin Dankhan's death, he had a few concubines who were unwilling to submit to Ezhe, and he led five or six thousand tribes to migrate near the Hetao grassland on the grounds that the western part of the desert was barren. At that time, Ezhe had insufficient prestige, and it was a blessing to be able to maintain the majority of tribes to remain unrest. He had no time to attack the large tribes that had separated. But the situation is different now. The Chahar tribe also came to the south of the monastery and gathered the five Mongolian tribes to repel the Jurchens' Western Expedition Army. This was the glory of Ezhe who first won the Mongolian Khan!

If the Chahars could lead horses to the descendants of the Golden Family, who would be willing to defect to the Jurchens to hold stirrups?

In the middle of the winter month, through the Han tribe mediated from it, a thousand Khan cavalry of Chahar crossed the Yellow River, crossed the Tumotes in Fengzhou to reach the edge of the Zhangba grassland with purpose, and recruited former tribes.

The nuncan could not restrain his troops and did not dare to fight with Ezhe's cavalry. He could only seek help from Shengjing, while joining the tribe to migrate to the Dongduoyan Grassland. There were two Chahar tribes in the Duoyan Grassland nomads, but they did not interact with each other until they died. Amur was unwilling to deal with Nuncan and others.

Bao Guang, a cavalryman from the Han Dynasty, led 500 guards and 700 light cavalrymen of Ji Hong, followed the Chahar cavalry and stepped into the south of the desert.

According to Zhai Zhe's orders, the Han cavalry hovered outside the Zhangjiakou market for several days before leaving, causing the Ming Dynasty to get nervous. In the cold winter, no one was willing to make a big move, and Zhai Zhe was using this to create pressure on the people of Zhangjiakou.

When the messenger who asked for help arrived in Liaodong, Huang Taiji did not send troops like Nangang thought, but only asked the messenger to come to appease him. He ordered Nangang to lead his troops to move to Amur's tribe and approach the Liaodong territory, leaving Amur to face Ezhe's harassment.

The messenger also conveyed an order to Amur that the Zhangba grassland could be given up, but the Duoyan grassland must have nomadic Mongolian tribes, because Zhangjiakou faced the Zhangba grassland directly and was on the edge of the Duoyan grassland.

Liaodong is very quiet throughout the winter.

Quietly, the Mongolians in the desert were heartbroken.

Shengjing.

In the Phoenix Tower of the Imperial Palace, Huang Taiji leaned against a large mahogany chair and looked at the documents piled up on the desk.

The grassland in the south of the desert was within his reach, but what is the meaning of the grassland without the Mongolians?

Even when the Han people were at their most powerful moment, they could not conquer the nomadic peoples on the grasslands with swords. The Jurchens were far from as strong as they were. After the failure of the Western Expedition, the Jurchens were also in the midst of internal and external difficulties. With the support of so many powerful soldiers and generals in Liaodong, only continuous victory in the battles can accumulate his prestige, and the continuous plundering of wealth can satisfy the greed of the tribe.

No matter how sharp the knife is, it must be used in the hands of those who are good at controlling it. The Jurchen soldiers cannot fight unnecessary wars.

Huang Taiji straightened his back and shouted out.

"Chuan Yuetuo!"

"Zhe!" The little yellow door outside the door could not hear any footsteps when he left.

After about an hour, Yuetuo walked into the gate of the palace.

After entering the Phoenix Tower and bowing and performing the ceremony, Yue Tuo stood on one side with his eyes down. When Huang Taiji was one of the four great benevolent seven or eight years ago, he was the most obedient minister.

Huang Taiji rubbed his swollen eyes and asked, "After the failure of the Western Expedition, what do you have to do with the situation in Monan?"

Yue Tou bent down and complimented: "The Khan is wise and wise, and will be able to establish a foundation of great gold and conquer Mongolia!"

"It's not easy to conquer Mongolia!" Huang Taiji threw the brush in his hand on the desk, leaving a thumb-sized ink mark on the gray-yellow pad.

Recruiting the people 8

Yue Tuo thought for a moment and said in a slow tone: "I think the key to conquering Mongolia is the Tumot and Chahar. Mongolia in the northern part of the world is not enough to worry. Siege the city as the base, attack the heart as the Shang, and both tribes need to be soft as the main and hard as the auxiliary, so that they are willing to submit to my Dajin! Tumot is close to Han people and cannot be recognized by other Mongolian tribes. Omubu Khan has always been the two ends of the rat, and can be designed and differentiated for my Dajin. Only by subduing the Tumot and making Ezhe lose hope can Chahar surrender. Ezhe is the direct descendant of the Golden Family. Mongolian inherits the Great Khan and has the imperial seal of the Mongolian Yuan. If he is allowed to escape, it will eventually be a hidden danger to my Dajin!"

Yue Tuo's words made Huang Taiji nod secretly. Dorgon's toughness and Yue Tuo's softness were both needed by the Jin Dynasty. The key was to see where he used it.

"I'll be relieved to hear you say this. I'll leave it to you about Mo Nan. Remember not to be too hasty. If Ezhe escapes to Mo Xi, it will be another trouble!"

"I understand!"

"In the Western Expedition, our Dajin suffered a lot of losses. We won't get much seizures to conquer Mongolia. The Dajin will not start wars in the south of the desert next year, but we must never let the Mongols pass through the Zhangba grassland. The Han people only have interests in their eyes, but Zhangjiakou is crucial to our Dajin!"

"twitter!"

Yue Tuo quietly retreated.

Throughout the winter, Huang Taiji's orders were issued one by one, and the entire Shengjing Capital was busy.

After urging this Spring Festival, in the first month of the eighth year of Chongzhen, Huang Taiji proclaimed himself emperor in Shengjing, changed the country's name to Qing, and Jurchens to Manchu, and divided the ministers into various ministers, and sent envoys to the Mongolian tribes and Korea in Modong, ordering the tribes to submit and pay tribute.

Huang Taiji Ben wanted to use conquering Mongolia as his throne gift, but in the end he failed to do so.

After considering for a few months, he decided to implement his original plan.

The joy of becoming emperor can dilute the shadows brought by the failure of the Western Expedition, and more importantly, this is the most important part of his vigorous ambition.

"Ming" means fire, and "Qing" means water.

The court officials all thought that he had to conquer Mongolia, but unexpectedly his eyes were aiming at the huge empire beside him.

All the Mongolian tribes in the east of the Modong came to congratulate him. Amur, Nangang and others from the Duoyan Grassland also rushed to Shengjing in person. What Nangang never expected was that Huang Taiji liked her at first sight and married her as his concubine, and asked Dorgon and Ajige to marry two other concubines of Lin Danhan respectively. This added great glory to the surrendered Chahar tribe, and few people fled to Ezhe.

Only Huang Taiji knew whether he really fell in love with Lin Danhan, the plump concubine.

In early February, North Korea also moved envoys to celebrate.

Huang Taiji was overjoyed. North Korea has always been in love with the Ming Dynasty. Ten years ago, when the Jin army was approaching the city of Pyongyang, the two sides agreed to reach a "brotherly alliance" and ordered him to cut off the tribute to the Ming Dynasty.

The court officials and envoys stood together on both sides of Chongzheng Hall, and Huang Taiji intended to show the power of the Qing Dynasty in front of the Korean envoys.

The two envoys walked in with no sense of tension. In the stunned everyone, the two stood up and said a compliment.

On the dragon throne, Huang Taiji was furious and scolded: "Why don't the North Korean envoy kneel down and worship!"

The envoy made a remark: "The Qing Dynasty and North Korea are brotherly countries, and there is no need to kneel down!"

Huang Taiji's eyelids twitched and said angrily: "Does the King of Korea intend to make resentment? Do you ask me to come and humiliate me?" He immediately ordered the warrior to imprison the two of them. In the angry eyes of the court officials, he was ecstatic. He lost it and got it in Dongyu. This is really a good opportunity to come to the door. Is there any persimmon that is softer than North Korea to pinch? (To be continued)
