Chapter 688: Westward and Southward

Before the Ming Dynasty fought, it took one go and took over the Haizhou Acropolis.

Although the Haizhou Acropolis was left by the Tartars and set a fire, it did not affect the joy of receiving the Haizhou Acropolis in the Ming Dynasty.

Haizhou Wei, the once Ming Dynasty acropolis, is now back in the hands of the Ming Dynasty.

...

Sun Chengzong has been waiting for news ahead. According to expectations, this time, he would not encounter much obstacles when he attacked Haizhou Acropolis. It should be easier. As long as the army arrives at Haizhou Acropolis, he will win.

According to the speed of the chariot camp, he would definitely be able to reach Haizhou Guard within one day. In the morning, Sun Chengzong watched the army set off with a nervous mood, and then he kept waiting for news.

Although he had made careful preparations and made detailed arrangements in advance, Sun Chengzong could not calm down this battle that determined the life and death of the Ming Dynasty.

Late at night, the news finally came to Sun Chengzong.

"Okay! OK! OK!..." Sun Chengzong read the letter and said three good things in a row. He finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense spirit of Jing relaxed.

"Gei Master, but I won the Ming Dynasty?" There were always staff members on duty in the war room. When they saw Sun Chengzong saying three good things, they couldn't help asking.

"Win! I won the Haizhou Acropolis easily, as expected, no large-scale battle occurred..." Sun Chengzong said, and Sun Chengzong gave a positive answer to the inquiries of his staff.

The entire war room was boiling, and everyone suppressed their inner joy and celebrated each other. This was indeed a rare good news. It was considered a red-hot red. The Donglu lacked the courage to block the army. To some extent, it really confirmed the various intelligences of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

The news spread like wildfire and soon spread throughout Sancha River.

The Sancha River, which had already been silent, was immediately surrounded by many stars, passing on each other and sharing this joy.

Sun Chengzong's face was red. However, it was not so obvious on this night.

"I took down the Haizhou Acropolis, that is to say, I can rely on the Haizhou Acropolis as a stronghold to push the battlefield into fifty miles to the Donglu. In this way, there will be a range of one hundred and fifty miles..." Sun Chengzong repeatedly measured the distance with a ruler on the map, and finally came to this conclusion.

Taking over the Haizhou Guard is not a big contribution, but it is a very important link in the entire combat link. Relying on the Haizhou Acropolis, you can easily extend your tentacles to the deeper inland and to the old nest of the Donglu. Now the Ming Dynasty is strong and powerful, and the least feared is consumption. The Ming Dynasty can afford it, but the Donglu cannot afford it. If it fights a scout war, the Ming Dynasty is not afraid of it.

"Gei Master, I won the Haizhou Acropolis, I'm afraid I'll win three points in this battle..." A staff officer said on the side.

"Yes, everyone says that they are the first to win, but I am very clear that they are the first to win. The morale of the Eastern Captains is not as good as before." Sun Chengzong also sighed. From the war report sent back, the Tartars only sent more than 10,000 people to show off, and the large group of troops did not even come, which is enough to show a lot of things.

"Gei Master, now the scouts are fighting so fiercely. It is not that the Tartars knew that once our dynasty occupied the Haizhou Acropolis, the impact on them would be on them. They knew that they would not come yet. They were indeed very powerful and no longer as brave as before. They used to make harsh words, and they were invincible. Now it seems that they are just empty words and utterly..." The staff members were hotly discussed. This seems to be somewhat different from the high and low of the people. In fact, this is indeed very common in the staff.

"Gei Master, so what if the Tartars come all the way? Our army is not afraid of him at all. If we want to confront our army, there must be at least 50,000 or 60,000 people. Do the Tartars still have so many people now?... Even if there are, do you dare to come all the way? Lin Danhan still suffers. He learned that all the Donglu came to get entangled with our army, how could he give up?"

In the war room, the staff members said one thing, and I started talking about it.

Sun Chengzong was happy that these staff members discussed by themselves that a person's wisdom is limited, but the wisdom of the group is infinite. It is better to use more cobblers to ordinary people because they expect that everyone is Zhuge Liang. The more they compete, the more they can discover problems, and avoid problems.

"How about it, but the argument came to a result?" Sun Chengzong asked with a smile after the staff members argued for a while. After asking, Sun Chengzong actually knew what he knew. Asking, it was just a test of these staff members.

"Go back to the cabinet, the students have already achieved results." One of them said.

"Oh," Sun Chengzong was in a very good mood.

"When I return to the cabinet, the students believe that the current situation should be stabilized for the time being. There is no need to urge the army to continue the attack. With the Haizhou Acropolis, the scouts were scattered everywhere, the Donglu had to deal with the battle. It can further consume the Donglu's strength and understand the local terrain, rivers, etc., and then advance before advancement is the safest. In addition, it will take a certain period of time to transport food supplies to the Haizhou Acropolis. Therefore, the students believe that consolidating the results of the battle should be the most important, and not rushing to achieve complete results..." The leader said loudly.

When Sun Chengzong heard this, he smiled. This inference was basically the same as what he considered. According to the emperor's strategy, it should be that the Eastern Barbarians should force the Eastern Barbarians to advance westward, and the Ming Dynasty followed behind to enter the grassland. If the Eastern Barbarians fight in Liaodong, it would be unsightly. Of course, this strategy is quite difficult to implement. It is necessary to master a good degree. It cannot defeat the Eastern Barbarians too strong, nor can it let the Eastern Barbarians see the hope of victory. It must constantly eliminate the strength of the Eastern Barbarians. A gradually weakened Eastern Barbarians are safe. Based on this premise, Sun Chengzong will not force the Eastern Barbarians to fight to fight, but he will definitely not let the Eastern Barbarians live a good life, and the cruel scouts fight will continue to eliminate the strength of the Eastern Barbarians. This is certain. It is necessary to constantly squeeze the Eastern Barbarians, so that the Eastern Barbarians can't see any hope in the east and south, and they have to focus their attention on the west.

"Yes, it's right. This cabinet also thinks so. Come on! I'll send an order to Commander-in-Chief Qin... No, it's better for this cabinet to write a letter in person..." Sun Chengzong was in a very good mood and was preparing to write a letter in person. Of course, in addition to writing a letter to Qin Liangyù, he also had to send a letter to the capital and explain the situation here clearly.

...

The news of the loss of Haizhou Acropolis was also delivered to Huang Taiji overnight.

It has also been very deep and quiet.

Fan Wencheng was called up in the middle of the night and came to discuss the matter.

Maybe it's because of poor sleep, maybe it's because of dim lights, or maybe it's because of this bad news. In short, Huang Taiji's face is very bad.

Fan Wencheng just glanced at Huang Taiji and lowered his eyes.

"Xiandou, Haizhou Guard was lost, and the second brother could not even block it at least, but he retreated with a fake shot..." Huang Taiji's face looked quite ugly. Although this was expected, it still felt unacceptable when things happened. Last year, when he fought with the Ming Dynasty, Dajin injured his vitality, and many casualties, which not only hurt his vitality, but also hurt his mental energy. Now he is in a war with the Ming Dynasty, and he always has a knot in his heart.

Fan Wencheng lowered his head lower, which was just something he had expected in advance.

"Khan, Haizhou Guards are too close to the sea. It is completely under the Ming Dynasty's military front. It is really unwise to defend Haizhou Guards..." Fan Wencheng could only comfort him in this way.

"Yes!..." Huang Taiji said helplessly. Now, facing the pressure of the Ming Dynasty, he was too great. He lost too much last year. Now he has lost the spirit of winning against the Ming Dynasty. In the past, ten thousand soldiers could walk sideways in front of tens of thousands of Ming Dynasty officials. He didn't care about the reaction of the Ming Dynasty. He could even form counter-pressure on tens of thousands of official troops, which could make the Ming Dynasty officials stay in the city and dare not come out. But now it is not possible. Huang Taiji knew that if the Ming Dynasty knew that there were only ten thousand soldiers, he would definitely flock to the crowd and kill them in a swarm, wanting to rely on ten thousand people to suppress them.

The good thing of controlling tens of thousands of people in the Ming Dynasty does not exist. It seems that for the Ming Dynasty, the head of the man is victory, and one's own losses are not to be considered. Faced with this helpless style of play, Huang Taiji had no choice but to lose. The person he couldn't afford to lose the most was the people. The giant Ming Dynasty, even if he defeated his tens of thousands of people at once, could gather more than 100,000 people and fight again. Huang Taiji felt that this was unfair. As long as the Dajin lost once, he would lose completely. The Ming Dynasty had a chance to come again after losing again. If he lost again, he could come again.

The tent of Khan was silent. Huang Taiji didn't speak, and Fan Wencheng was unwilling to say more. The bad news came one after another. If you talk too much, it was probably not a good thing.

"By the way, Xiandou, among the bounty hunters in the south, can there be any information to use? If I, Dajin, don't win a big game as soon as possible, I, may be more and more unfavorable to my Dajin..." Huang Taiji asked again.

Fan Wencheng's face became darker, his head lowered even lower. He only dared to think a little bit and replied: "She is the khan. Most of the people he used to contact with have been broken now..." Fan Wencheng said quickly. He was also worried. He was also unsuccessful. In order to deal with the Ming Dynasty, Huang Taiji had many solutions. The Ming Dynasty had to send spies in the capital. There were spies in Liaodong in the south. Huang Taiji spent a lot of money to collect

I bought a few groups of bounty hunters. In order not to alarm the snake, even though I heard more important news from those bounty hunters, Huang Taiji pretended not to be so that I could play a key role in the decisive battle in the future. But now that the war has just begun, those who were bribed immediately disappeared, and the line has been cut off. Perhaps it was because the Ming Dynasty discovered it, or perhaps it was because the Ming Dynasty had too much chance of winning, so I dared not place bets on Huang Taiji's side, for fear of being discovered by the Ming Dynasty.

"This is a damn group of liars..." Huang Taiji couldn't help but curse evilly. This was originally a dark chess he buried, but now it is ruined and has not played the role he should have.

Fan Wencheng could only remain silent and dare not speak for fear of being troubled.

After a while of silence, the night seemed to have frozen in this quiet night.

"Speak of Xiandou, what should I do now? The Ming Dynasty is powerful and has strong strength, and its strength is no less than that of my Dajin. I also used a car camp and was not afraid of my Dajin's small-scale attack on the food and grass retreat. It is very difficult to hold the Ming Dynasty!" Huang Taiji said helplessly with pain.

"The best thing to go back to Dahan is to move westward. If we can grab more tribes in Lin Danhan's hands, our Dajin can recover our vitality. If we can join the tribes of Tumote and Wordusi, our Dajin will be stronger and we can use the grassland to confront the Ming Dynasty..." Fan Wencheng was unwilling to say more about how to stop the Ming Dynasty. This is a very difficult thing. It is better to say that we are moving westward. To fight Lin Danhan is much more sure of fighting Lin Danhan than fighting Ming Dynasty.

"Every westward..., the foundation of our ancestors should not be abandoned easily! Xiandou talked about how to repel the Ming army." Huang Taiji was prepared for moving westward, but he still didn't want to easily abandon these already. The Dajin now has Shengjing and several good cities. In this regard, it is actually more "wider" than Lin Dankhan. Huang Taiji knew that once he entered the grassland, he would become a "savage". Although Fan Wencheng said it very attractive, if he occupied the grassland, he could follow the "ancestor" and sweep the whole world, Huang Taiji also knew that even Lin Dankhan's "capital city" was just the size of the "county town" of the Ming Dynasty. If he really entered the grassland, it would be a different situation. Today, Shengjing is the first city outside the pass.

"..." Fan Wencheng sweated, not saying that he was moving westward, not saying that he was nice, not saying that he was so disgusting..., it was a lot of pressure!

"Khan, Wen Cheng thought that the decisive battle with the Ming Dynasty was really unwise. The Ming Dynasty was prepared and my morale and military strength were not as good as the Ming Dynasty. When fighting, there was not much chance of victory..." Fan Wencheng said with a tough forehead.

"The Xianfong makes sense. It is indeed unwise to fight the Ming Dynasty head-on. But if you do not stop the Ming Dynasty from advancing, once the Ming Dynasty soldiers approach the city, it will be a result of breaking the city!" Huang Taiji said bitterly.

"Da Han said yes..." Fan Wencheng lowered his head lower, which fitted with one sentence.

"...Now it seems that I still have to go to meet Qin Liang again..." Huang Taiji said thoughtfully when he saw that he couldn't ask anything.

Fan Wencheng was relaxed for a while, and Huang Taiji finally didn't say anything too much. He didn't have to take risks for his ideas. Fan Wencheng heard that Huang Taiji was going to fight with the Ming army in person, but in fact, he was not very optimistic about it. Now the gold's vitality is severely damaged. Although some vitality has been restored to Lin Danhan, it is still very injured in general. In terms of military strength, it is not advantageous to the Ming Dynasty, let alone morale and combat power, and even if Huang Taiji goes there personally, he is afraid that there is no way. Against the Ming Dynasty, it will at most have a delay effect. It is difficult to turn the world around by relying on finding the flaws of the Ming Dynasty. Fan Wencheng still thinks that the best thing now is to advance westward as the main thing, and advance west as soon as possible. Lin Danhan's side will be stronger and stronger, and the Ming Dynasty will consume strength every day.

"By the way, Xiandou, I heard that Lin Danhan sent the letter Ben Khan wrote to him to the Ming Dynasty for reward..." Huang Taiji suddenly said.

"Return to the big sweat, yes." Fan Wencheng said.

"How do you think about this matter of Xianfong?" Huang Taiji asked again.

"The Khan shows that Lin Dankhan's situation is not good, so he has to ask for help from the Ming Dynasty. Khan, Wen Cheng still said the same thing, go west as soon as possible, to the south, during the period when the Ming Dynasty was cautious, he would not act too much for the time being..." Fan Wencheng advised again.

"I know this in my heart. Does Xiandou feel that there is still hope for the alliance with Lin Dankhan?" Huang Taiji said that Huang Taiji is also a person who makes his own decisions. Although he also refers to Fan Wencheng's words, he will never just listen to Fan Wencheng.

"When Khan returned to the Great Khan, Lin Danhan did this, Wen Cheng thought that the alliance might be..." Fan Wencheng felt a little relaxed when he saw that Huang Taiji would no longer talk about the war with the Ming Dynasty.

"Oh, how did Xiandou know this? Can you explain it in detail?" Huang Taiji asked.

"The Khan, the more this happens, the more it means that Lin Danhan is in a difficult situation. As long as the Khan continues to send letters to Lin Danhan, Lin Danhan will definitely exchange them for things from the Ming Dynasty. What the Ming Dynasty gave Lin Danhan was just turning his hand and getting to the Khan's hands again?... Furthermore, Lin Danhan was helpless and might have done something that was not an alliance on the surface or an alliance in secret." Fan Wencheng said.

"Oh, this is fresh, Xiandou may as well explain it in detail." Huang Taiji became interested. Although he gained a lot from fighting Lin Danhan and could recover his vitality, he still suffered losses. He lost some jingle. Even if he could replenish more xxx people, in fact, in terms of the overall combat power, it was still reduced. The newly-edited xxx people were not as hard as the old Eight Banners.

"Da Khan, when it really comes to that time, Lin Danhan will definitely be helpless. Even if he wants to fight, he doesn't have the ability. Even if he calls out fiercely, what else can he do? Can he still move? So Wen Cheng thought that Dahan might as well continue to attack Lin Danhan while continuing to send letters to Lin Danhan. He thought that Lin Danhan would agree to form an alliance, at least he would not take the initiative to attack my Dajin. As long as he does this, my Dajin can detour through Lin Danhan's territory and join the tribes of Tumot and Wordus. Once he meets, my Dajin's strength will increase sharply..." Fan Wencheng said.

"Oh..." Huang Taiji thought for a while, and then said, "...Lin Danhan will really let me go over? He is not worried that I, Da Jin and Tumot, will become stronger after the Wordusi tribes become stronger, so go and cause trouble for him?" Huang Taiji asked back.

"Khan, Lin Danhan, actually has strength in his hands, so he should not be too forced. Dahan thought, isn't there any other Mobei tribes supporting Lin Danhan? Lin Danhan's back is not good enough, so he can still retreat north. It is quite difficult for Dahan to uproot Lin Danhan and swallow it all. Therefore, Wen Cheng thought that it was possible to slap the bow on the surface and secretly stay in peace..." Fan Wencheng analyzed.

"Well, Xiandou makes sense... Maybe that's what it means..." Huang Taiji thought about it and murmured.
