411 Attack on Phi Island Again

Huang Taiji, a slave chief in Liaodong, has been worrying about one problem this year, that is, food and grass.

Originally, in history, Ajige led the Jianlu to enter the pass from October last year, and at this time, he had already plundered a large amount of people and food and supplies from the pass and returned to Liaodong.

However, in this plane, because of the sudden change in the Ming Dynasty's strategy against Liao, the most important thing is that the destruction of the eight major Shanxi merchants made the Jianlu in Liaodong suddenly become blind in the pass, and he could not break into the pass from the weak place of the Ming Dynasty.

The only source of food and grass is only available from North Korea.

However, North Korea did not have the wealth of Ming Dynasty. After being forced to ask for food and grass twice by Jianlu, Jianlu spent this winter, but thieves flocked to North Korea.

Since the beginning of this year, North Korea has been unable to quell the rebellion itself and has asked Jianlu to help quell the rebellion several times, but this means that it is impossible to provide food and grass, so Jianlu has to bring it.

Isn't this a joke?

Although Huang Taiji knew the dangers of fishing in the dry pond, if possible, he certainly wanted to help North Korea quell the rebellion so that he could get more things from North Korea in the future. However, the Qing Dynasty had no food, so how could he send troops?

The most important thing is that the Korean Navy, not the Qing Dynasty Navy, has been training to fight for the Ming army that can defeat Pidao. Even if the money and food consumed is saved, it will be a very large expense, and it was not available before the Qing Dynasty.

In addition, the Ming army on Pi Island tried every means to go ashore to make trouble, and the defense wars along the coast also forced the Qing Dynasty to consume more money and food than before.

Combining this, to be honest, Huang Taiji is still thinking about asking North Korea for money and food!

Without money and food, the soldiers from the Mongolian tribe on the grassland could not afford to be hired.

Due to the current situation, Huang Taiji has sent people several times to ask the Qingshui Master if he can start a war?

As the commander of the Qingshui Master, Haoge was very happy. Every time Huang Taiji sent someone to ask, he would pat his chest and say no problem!

But? Huang Taiji was worried? His main reference was the commander of the Han generals and North Korea. The answers they got here were completely different from those of Haoge. He said that he had to train, so he could be fully confident.

In response to this, Huang Taiji had to suppress his anxious thoughts.

Because he also knew that the Qing Dynasty did not have the ability to build ships? If there were any losses in the navy warship, one would be less than one. And North Korea is already so poor that it is unlikely to provide food and grass, so where can we get the money and food to build ships?

For this reason, Huang Taiji endured it and endured it in order to eliminate the Ming army who came to Liaodong to harass him in one fell swoop.

But? By July, he could no longer wait, because according to reports from North Korea and his subordinates on the Yalu River, the Ming army on Pidao had already tended to unite with North Korean thieves. To be precise, the Korean thieves contacted the Ming army on Pidao and found a backer, which was quite unfavorable to North Korea.

If the Ming army on Pi Island is not destroyed as soon as possible? Wherever North Korea is likely to betray the Qing Dynasty? And then surrender to the Ming Dynasty, this will be quite unfavorable to the Qing Dynasty.

So, the Qingshui Master finished his training, left Juehua Island in a mighty manner, and began to sweep away the Ming army along the coastline. The ultimate goal was Pi Island.

In order to ensure the success of this war, Huang Taiji could not sit still in Sheng Kyoto, so he personally led the elite Eight Banners of Manchuria to Jinzhou. He knew that the final decisive battle must be on Pi Island.

He had no high demands. The Qing Dynasty naval commander did not say that he had completely wiped out the Ming Dynasty naval commander. As long as he could compete with the equal team or cover the elite Eight Banners of Manchuria to climb the Pi Island, the battle would be won.

In mid-August of the 16th year of Chongzhen, when Zhang Mingwei left Shu and went to Jingdezhen to inspect the glass factory that was crucial to the development of science and technology, Huang Taiji also led the army to secretly arrive at Zhenjiang Fort.

Zhenjiang Fort is located on the Yalu River, opposite Xinyizhou, and is under the control of Jianlu at this time. However, Huang Taiji did not cross the river. Therefore, at this time, there were Ming army patrol ships on the river. Once crossing the river, they would be noticed by the Ming army.

The Jianlu Navy, with about 800 ships of all sizes, also swept along the coastline in a mighty manner.

According to the news that Kuaima reported to Zhenjiang, the journey was quite smooth. The islands along the way, including Guanglu Island, Changshan Island, Shicheng Island and Kashima, all the Ming army, which were originally entrenched here to harass the Qing Dynasty coast, fled in panic and fled to Peak Island.

At this time, there is no need to conceal the news.

With the order of Huang Taiji, the army crossed the river and headed to Tieshan, which was the closest land to Pi Island, only 8 miles away.

At this time, Jianlu's intentions were fully exposed. He advanced along the water and land, and his momentum was the strongest in Jianlu's history!

Of course, Huang Taiji could not have put North Korea in order to let North Korea watch the show. The order for recruitment was passed, and the atmosphere in the Korean court immediately changed.

In general, the influence of the Ming Dynasty on North Korea was definitely not completely replaced by the Jianlu in just over a decade. The monarch and ministers of the North Korea were basically towards the Ming Dynasty.

But the Ming Dynasty was not good at fighting and could not defeat Jianlu. Later, even Pidao was captured by Jianlu. Of course, North Korea provided the warships here.

Since then, the North Korean court has always been a faction close to the Jianlu, and Jin Zidian has the upper hand. Those who are tough on Jianlu like Lin Qingye were betrayed by Jin Zidian and were arrested for the Chinese New Year last year and went to Liaodong.

However, as the Ming army rebuilt Dongjiang Town, North Korea's Inzu repeated again, especially after knowing that the thieves in North Korea surrendered to the Ming army, they were even more panicked. If the thieves had the support of the rebels, it would be an absolute threat to his throne.

And at this time, the incident of the Ming army raiding the hinterland of Liaodong last year had also spread to North Korea. This restored a lot of confidence in the Ming Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty. Jin Zidian's life was not easy, and he was limited by Inzu's authority. There was even a proposal in the court to ask the Jianlu to release Lin Qingye and return to China. The reason was that Lin Qingye was able to command troops and could allow North Korea to quell the rebels as soon as possible.

However, this period did not last long. When Huang Taiji led his army to Tieshan, and when the envoy arrived in Seoul, Jin Zidian gained power again.

In the Korean court, he was alone and talking freely became his own words.

"In the tenth year of Chongzhen, the Qing soldiers broke into Pi Island, and it was decided to fight one battle."

"The Qing Dynasty suffered only 260 casualties, and the Ming people on the island, with tens of thousands of people killed in battle, and the generals, etc., were also killed in battle."

"Your Majesty, my colleagues, how can the Ming Kingdom stop the military attack of the Qing Dynasty?"

"The last time it was the Eighth Prince who led the troops, but now this time, the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty personally led the troops. How can Pi Island survive again?"

“…”

The monarch and ministers of North Korea were all speechless by him, and they all lowered their heads, and no one dared to refute them.

Seeing that he had said almost everything, Jin Zidian bowed to Renzu and said, "Although the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty did not ask, the king should go to pick him up in person. In this way, if the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty was happy, it might not be necessary to exempt our country from tribute!"

When I was a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, I had to worry about tribute, but at this time, the tribute to Jianlu was really a mountain in the hearts of the Korean monarchs and ministers. When Inzu heard this, he was a little moved.

However, he hesitated and said, "But if Gu went to Tieshan, he would have consumed a lot of money and food!"

"Master, it's a small amount of money and food to consume. The Emperor of Qing was happy!" Jin Zidian hurriedly advised, "Once the Emperor of Qing was happy, maybe he could send troops to help us suppress the thieves!"

After saying that, he saw that Renzu was still hesitating, so he continued to persuade: "Pidao Ming army is always with the rebels. Even if the king sent an envoy, he did not give him a good face. He also said that he would report to the Emperor of Ming to make a decision. Now that the Ming army in Pidao is about to be destroyed, don't place hope for the Ming army anymore!"

At the end, he once again used his killer move: "If it makes the Emperor of Qing angry, this matter is either a matter of two or a matter of two or a matter of two. The survival of our North Korea is all in the mind of the Emperor of Qing!"

The two Jianlu attacked North Korea, which was so powerful that Inzu was already scared. When he heard Kim Zidian's words, he stopped hesitating and said to Kim Zidian: "I am tired, so as you say, and go and discuss with Dragon Bone!"

The dragon bone is big, and it is Ying'erdai, and it is also the envoy sent by Huang Taiji this time.

So, under the coercion and temptation of Kim Zidian, North Korea Inzu personally visited all civil and military officials and led a large number of troops to the north to welcome Huang Taiji, and naturally brought North Korea's strongest power.

……………………

On the Pi Island side, General Li Laiheng naturally received news, not only knew that Jianlu Navy had swept all the way, but also knew that the slave chief Huang Taiji led his troops to Tieshan. From this, it can be seen that Jianlu was determined to win Pi Island.

In response, Li Laiheng said to Zheng Fusong: "How is it? I have been enduring for so long. Should I be happy this time?"

Zheng Fusong is only eighteen years old, and Li Laiheng is only a few years older than Zheng Fusong. Because of their age, their relationship is very good.

Of course, this is also why Li Laiheng is good at being a human being. Because he knew that if his Dongjiang Town was invincible, the navy was very important.

The navy under Dongjiang Town is not so much a Denglai Navy, but a private fleet of the Zheng family. Therefore, the harmonious relationship with the navy commander is the prerequisite for whether Dongjiang Town can establish a long-term foothold in Liaodong.

When he first came, Zheng Hongkui's suggestion made the Ming army naval army hide their strength and only showed up with some naval forces. However, those who waited left and right were unable to wait for the main force of Jianlu Navy, which made Zheng Fusong a little anxious.

On several occasions, he asked Li Laiheng for battle and wanted to lead the main force of the navy to directly find the Jianlu navy.

However, this proposal was rejected by Li Laiheng.
