Even the most brainless Mang Gurtai has fallen silent, and the eldest Beile Daishan and the second Beile Amin will not take the initiative to ask for help.
Especially Amin, he is just the nephew of Nuerhachi, the only "outsider" among the four Baylors, and the most disliked among the senior officials.
He and Nuerhachi were not of the same mind at all. It didn't matter to him whether this so-called big gold was prospering or declining.
Because he had a sworn feud with Nuerhaci, his father Shuerhaqi, his eldest brother and his third brother all died at the hands of Nuerhaci, and they were sentenced to death.
If it hadn't been for the opposition from Jianzhou's senior officials back then, he wouldn't be alive today.
Although he was raised by Nuerhachi, he was also awarded the title of Heshuo Beile, Daishan, Mang Gurtai, and Huang Taiji to jointly hold military and political power.
But the hatred in his heart did not diminish because of this. Instead, it became stronger with time.
But he didn't dare to take any action, let alone raise an army to rebel and avenge his father and brother, because he was just a lonely ghost.
He is already weak in power. Although he is the leader of the Xilan Banner, he only has an empty name. Among the middle and high-level generals such as Gushan Ezhen and Jia La Ezhen below, none of them are his people. They are all
The Great Khan who was sitting on top had inserted it.
When it was his turn to take office for the month, he would have to intervene in all domestic affairs, big and small. Compared with the other three Baylors, he was like a doll.
This deformed existence made him extremely angry, but he did not dare to show it or tell others. From then on, he developed a simple, rough, cruel, murderous, and extremely withdrawn character.
Nuerhachi was defeated in the last battle, and he couldn't hide his joy. He hid at home drinking and celebrating alone. He thought no one knew about it, but the old slave, who was always extremely wary of those around him, had already noticed it.
Seeing that the two Baylors were unmoved, the fourth Baylor Huang Taiji strode forward, knelt down and shouted:
"Father Khan, this servant is willing to lead the Zhengbai Banner warriors to eliminate Mao Wenlong, and vows to sacrifice the thieves' heads to Father Khan to avenge the eleventh brother."
Nuerhachi, who was sitting on it, waved his hand and said:
"You can't go. According to the information sent back by Horqin's tribe, your Lin Dan Khan was severely defeated by the little emperor. Two tribes of ten thousand households were killed by the Ming army, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were lost.
It hurts your vitality.”
"The last southern expedition against the Ming Dynasty did not go well, and Liaoshen and Shenyang are impregnable. We cannot take the initiative to attack the Ming Dynasty again in a short period of time. We must take a good rest."
"This Khan is planning to join forces with the Horqin tribe to go to Monan Mongolia to meet the so-called Great Khan of Mongolia."
Huang Taiji had known about this for a long time, so he took the initiative to ask Ying to exterminate Mao Wenlong, because he knew that his father Khan would not let him go. Between staying in Hetuala and going out with the army, there must be one.
It's him.
Huang Taiji, who is good at hiding his clumsiness, remained calm and asked with a hint of doubt:
"What does Father Khan mean?"
"When the time comes, you will go with Ben Khan. The task of guarding the capital will be left to Daishan and Mang Gurtai. The task of wiping out Mao Wenlong..."
At this point, Nuerhachi paused, and his eyes also focused on Mang Gurtai and Amin.
After a while, he said calmly:
"Amin, I leave it to you to bring Mao Wenlong's head back to Ben Khan."
"Slave takes orders!"
Even if Amin didn't want to do anything in his heart, he could only accept it because he had no choice.
"Amin, I hope the blue flag will not disappoint Ben Khan this time."
Amin knew what Nuerhachi meant. When he besieged Shenyang last time, his troops with the blue flag suffered very little loss, only a few hundred men.
The reason why the losses were so small was because he did not order an all-out attack like Mang Gurtai, but instead fished in troubled waters.
Amin performed a set of classic Manchu and Qing Dynasty movements. He knelt on the ground with one hand and one knee and said:
"Don't worry, Khan, this slave will definitely atone for his sins this time." (I won't go into details about this set of actions, otherwise this chapter will most likely be lost. You can make up your own mind. Everyone who has watched the Manchu drama knows this. What action is it?)
Nuerhachi slowly stood up and said:
"Daishan and Mang Gurtai led the red flag, the blue flag and the yellow flag to stay in the capital. The garrison positions of the red flag and the white flag remained unchanged. Amin, prepare your blue flag and send troops to Zhenjiang in three days. Defeat After Mao Wenlong, he went to North Korea to collect some food and came back. The young men and women also grabbed more to supplement the population loss of Dajin."
"Huang Taiji, lead your warriors from the Zhengbai Banner. In five days, we will march out to the grassland with my Khan's Xianghuang Banner."
The people standing below knelt down and shouted in unison after another set of classic moves:
"嗻!"
Fan Wencheng secretly took a look at Huang Taiji who was kneeling in front of him, and a meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
…
"Brothers, you have become rich. There is so much food and money. I have never seen so much money in my life."
In the Zhenjiang Fort, Shang Kexi was rummaging through boxes and cabinets on the carriage, and his eyes went straight when he saw the boxes of white money.
A leading Jin Yiwei pulled him down and said:
"Boy, you can't touch this money. After the edict is announced, it will be distributed according to the merits of each of you."
Shang Kexi flattered him with a smile:
"Don't blame the angels, don't blame the angels, hey hey hey."
Qianhu did not deliberately make things difficult for him, and immediately said:
"Where is Mao Wenlong, ask him to come out quickly to receive the order. Your Majesty knows that you have won a great victory, so he specially sent me to commend all the heroes. These are all silver rewards and food for you."
After hearing this, Shang Ke immediately sent someone to invite his adoptive grandfather Mao Wenlong. He led the way and respectfully invited the angel to enter the city.
After the Jin Yiwei read out the emperor's decree, Mao Wenlong knelt on the ground and kowtowed and shouted:
"Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor, for your grace!"
"General Mao, please rise. Your Majesty has said that although your troops have conquered more than a hundred miles of Zhenjiang Fort, they are still weak. In order to protect the rear, I will send a large army to encircle and suppress you. General Mao should make preparations in advance. First send the people, women and children back to Liaozuo and Liaoxi along the coastal road."
"His Majesty also said that if there are not enough ships, he will send someone with this handwriting to go to North Korea to meet the King of North Korea and order him to assist."
After saying that, he took out another yellow letter from his arms and handed it into his hand.
Mao Wenlong kowtowed and said:
"I will obey the Holy Orders!"
After reading out the imperial edict, the Jin Yiwei immediately began to distribute the reward money and food according to the recorded military achievements. Everyone in Zhenjiang Fort, whether it was civilians or soldiers who joined the army, cheered.
"I thought His Majesty would make grandpa the chief military officer, but I didn't expect that he would just be promoted to the rank of general."
Shang Kexi on the side stared at the imperial edict in Mao Wenlong's hand and murmured:
"Yongxi, be careful what you say!"
Mao Wenlong put the imperial edict away and then said in a deep voice.
Shang Kexi immediately replied honestly:
"knew."
Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming, who were standing on both sides, also laughed secretly when they saw Shang Kexi was embarrassed.
