After burning the last eighteen ships, Nurhachi was already dissatisfied and ordered: "Since you want to imitate the Overlord, then imitate him thoroughly.
The people came and burned all the food and grass, leaving only three days of dry food for the decisive battle with the Qin army."
The faces of the generals changed again, but this time no one stood up to dissuade him, because Nurhachi was right.
If you break the cauldron and sink the boat, the boat is already broken, so why keep the cauldron? It is better to burn them all with fire to stimulate the soldiers' desire to fight to the death.
After a series of tragic defeats, the Qing army had developed a fear of the Qin army. Naturally, they would not dare to fight the Qin army if they could not fight.
But now that the warships were burned and the food and fodder were burned, there was no other way out except fighting to the death. Naturally, the soldiers were extremely desperate.
At this time, Nurhaci gave a little guidance and let the soldiers know that he would stay and fight with the soldiers until the last moment. This despair would turn into a madness that was not afraid of death.
"Qin Hao, you forced me to do this. You forced me to do this."
Nurhaci originally thought of sending a group of high-level officials back to Liaoxi before the decisive battle. After all, the soldiers at the bottom could be used as cannon fodder, but the high-level elites could not. Too many losses would damage the foundation of the Qing Dynasty.
But Chen Baxian suddenly stabbed him in the back and burned the ship, which was completely beyond Nurhachi's expectations.
However, now that the mistake had been made, Nurhaci also had a plan in mind. He simply burned the remaining warships and provisions to stimulate the soldiers' desire to fight to the death and abandon all their troops in order to severely damage the main force of the Qin army.
Of course, Nurhaci would not leave no escape route. Although he burned the last eighteen boats, he secretly ordered Yinzhen to collect ferries.
Although 200,000 Qing troops were trapped in Youbeiping, it was impossible to trap Nurhachi. If he really wanted to leave, he could return to western Liaoning by escaping into the deep mountains and old forests and crossing mountains and ridges without taking a boat.
The reason why Nurhachi did not leave, but took the risk of staying, was just to maximize the use value of these 120,000 abandoned troops.
That's right, these 120,000 troops were already abandoned in Nurhachi's heart, and their only purpose was to cause as many casualties as possible to the Qin army.
"The ship has been burned by the traitor Chen Baxian, and there are only three days of food and grass left, so..."
With that said, Nurhaci pointed his sword at the sky and shouted: "Qin must be defeated within three days, otherwise there will be only death.
Soldiers, I am with you in this battle. If you win, I will share these great mountains and rivers with you. If you lose, I will die before you all. If you violate this oath, I will strike down with five thunders and everyone will betray their relatives and leave."
[Ding dong, Nurhaci’s skill ‘Eight Banners’ is activated...
Eight Banners: A unique skill of the Aisin Gioro family. Only the Aisin Gioro royal family can awaken it. (Note: Different people have different effects.)
Effect 1: When commanding the entire Eight Banners Army, Commander 2, Force 4, the morale of the entire army will be greatly improved.
Effect 2: When commanding the foreign Eight Banners Army, Command 1, Force 2, the morale of the whole army will be improved to a certain extent. (Note: When commanding the Full Eight Banners and the Foreign Eight Banners at the same time, the number of people determines the dominance.)
Effect 3: When in dire straits, the strength of the entire army will be 1, and the morale, combat power, and fighting spirit of the entire army will all be greatly improved.]
But like Guan Yu's 'Three Swords', the 'Eight Banners' are also inherited skills of the family, and only people from the Aixinjueluo family can awaken.
However, compared to the 'Three Swords' which lacks stamina, the 'Eight Banners' which can enhance the unified force and the combat power of the entire army is much more effective.
As soon as Nurhaci said this, the entire Qing army suddenly went into an uproar.
Wow...
No one expected that the Qing Emperor would be so determined and would make such a vicious oath, which made all the soldiers feel extremely sad and angry.
His Majesty the Emperor could obviously leave, but he was willing to stay and fight to the death with the soldiers.
Even the emperor was not afraid of death and dared to fight to the death. How could ordinary soldiers be afraid of death?
"Since the Qin army won't leave us a way to survive, then we have to fight with them. The worst is death."
"Yes, he is a good man again after eighteen years."
"Fight, fight with the Qin army."
…
[Ding dong, Nurhachi’s skill ‘Eight Banners’ has effects 1 and 3 activated one after another, commander 2, force 4, whole army force 1, the morale of the whole army is greatly improved.
Nurhachi: Commander 101 (2), Force 103 (6), Intelligence 95 (3), Politics 95 (2), Charisma 97 (2); Equipment: Jin Xuantian Blue Sword, Blue Dragon Sword, Curly Black Dragon Horse;
Currently, Nurhachi’s commander-in-chief has increased to 103, his force has increased to 110, and the morale of the entire Qing army has increased significantly.]
With the dual morale support of the Eight Banners and Nurhaci's master-level bewitchment, the Qing army's morale quickly rebounded and soon reached its peak, with its combat effectiveness far exceeding its peak.
This is the potential that can be unleashed by people under desperate circumstances.
Looking at the army inspired by Quanqin, Nurhaci raised the corners of his mouth slightly and sneered ferociously.
"Qin Hao, I have prepared a feast for you, but I just don't know if your teeth are strong enough."
————————
"Chen Baxian, the guilty general, pays homage to the King of Qin."
In the Qin army's camp, Chen Baxian and three rebel generals took the initiative to kneel down and salute Qin Hao, who was on the throne, under the gaze of all the Qin generals who were either looking at him with contempt or disdain.
Chen Baxian was very clear about his position. He knew that he had committed an unpardonable crime by claiming to be a king, so he did not call himself the 'King of Sins', but a 'General of Sins'.
Anyway, in the eyes of the outside world, he, King Chen, is the puppet of the Liao family. It is better to take this opportunity to put the blame of becoming king on the head of the Liaodong family, so as to wipe away all the blame for his own crimes and save his life.
life.
Seeing that Qin Hao didn't speak, Chen Ba first thought that Qin Hao was dissatisfied with him, so he lowered his head, almost lying on the ground, mourning: "The guilty party has been late to surrender, please forgive me."
After seeing Chen Baxian's performance, Qin Hao thought to himself: "They are all movie kings," and then said calmly: "Chen Baxian, you are King Chen. Your status is the same as mine, so what crime can you have?"
Chen Baxian felt cold in his heart and hurriedly defended: "Your Majesty, the matter of proclaiming the king was definitely not the criminal general's intention. The criminal general was also forced to do so."
"How can you become king? Is there anyone who is forcing you to do so?"
"Reporting to your Majesty, the guilty general was originally a subordinate of Wang Mang. Wang Mang, together with Gongsun Shu, led the army south to Qingzhou after the Liao Kingdom launched a rebellion, leaving the last general to guard the Liao Kingdom.
The Liao Kingdom is a country caught in a crack, with the powerful Yan in the west and the violent Qing in the east. The generals have just arrived and have no foundation. How can they defend the Liao Kingdom?
In desperation, we could only rely on the power of local aristocratic families, but we did not expect that the Liao aristocratic family had long been bribed by the Manchus, so this plan turned into an act of luring the wolf into the house and seeking the skin of the tiger."
"Then what?"
"Then the guilty general was dismissed and put under house arrest. After that, he became king and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. It was all the work of the Liao family and had nothing to do with the guilty general."
