After winning successive victories against the Ming army Du Song and Malin, Nurhaci ordered the Eight Banners, who had no time to take a breath, to immediately head east to face the Liu Ju team of the Ming East Route Army.

When the order was first issued, the banner master and ministers were a little unacceptable, because although the two battles killed more than 10,000 Ming troops and captured more than 20,000 prisoners, the Eight Banners divisions that participated in the war also lost a lot of people.

Among them, the Eight Banners lost more than 4,000 battles with Dusong tribes, and the Eight Banners lost more than 2,000 battles with Malin tribes. If a complete banner of the Eight Banners itself was consumed by the Ming army.

Before the war, the Eight Banners soldiers who were actually used in the Sarhu area actually had only five and a half flags. In addition to the two red and two blue flags, the Zhenghuang Banner was dispatched. Before the war, the Yinghuang Banner allocated two Jiala troops. The minister Huerhan led the eastern expedition to encircle and suppress the return group. The prince Qiying led the three Jialas in Zhengbai Banner to stay in Heituara. The actual mobilized troops, together with Li Yongfang's surrendered army and Liu Xingzuo and other Han troops, totaled more than 57,000.

The biggest losses were the Red Banner and Blue Banner, and the least losses were the Red Banner. Now, including the Han army, the main force of the Eight Banners in the Sarhu area was only about 50,000.

Although the Eight Banners already have the advantage over the Liu Jin army of the Ming Dynasty, they were actually exhausted after these two battles. Some soldiers were so tired that they fell asleep as soon as the battle ended.

Therefore, even though there were two groups of troops in the Ming Dynasty that had not been eliminated, the Eight Banners still hoped that the Khan would allow them to return to the capital to rest for a few days. In that case, they would be more confident in destroying the Ming army.

He Heli, who had not had a good sleep for a few days, suggested that King Khan temporarily suspend the attack on Liu's army. He believed that behind Liu's army was the Huerhan army who returned from the Laozhai area, and Huerhan was biting Liu's army, and Liu's army would definitely not dare to go deeper as if no one had ever been before.

In this way, the main force of the Eight Banners can take the opportunity to return to Heitu Ala to rest. Moreover, if nothing unexpected happens, Liu Zhen's army will soon receive news that Du Song and Ma Lin are wiped out. Yang Hao, who is in Shenyang, is likely to let Liu Zhen lead his army back.

If the Khan led the already tired Eight Banners to advance eastward to deal with Liu Jing, if Liu Jing's troops fought to the death, the main force of the Eight Banners, whose combat effectiveness had declined, would probably not be able to swallow Liu Jing. A battle of encirclement and annihilation would become a war of attrition, which would be very unfavorable to Dajin.

After all, even if the Ming Dynasty defeated these troops, their family had a great cause and a large population. After a few years, they could gather another army out of the customs.

But what are the Eight Banners using to supplement their troops? Do they rely on those captured Ming troops?

The reason why the Eight Banners were able to defeat the Ming army in succession was that in addition to being united, the most important thing was that the composition of the Eight Banners was mainly composed of Jurchen warriors.

If a large number of prisoners were forced to be included in the Han army, there would be a situation of reversal of passengers in the future, which would greatly affect the stability of the Eight Banners.

He Heli's opinions not only received support from many generals, but even the second prince Daishan thought Ama was a little too hasty.

Nurhaci scolded them and said, "When I first started to raise an army, you followed me in the ice and snow. I have never eaten any hardships. Which one called hardship at that time? Now that the enemy is still approaching us, we want to rest first, thinking that the enemy may retreat by themselves. This idea is too dangerous! Remember, we can have today because of our tenacity. If we do not have this tenacity, what is the difference between us and those Ming troops?"

Nurhaci started from the overall situation and believed that if the Ming army of Liu Ju in the east could be quickly resolved, then the Ming army in Chenyang and even the entire Liaodong would become a frightened bird, and the initiative in the war would fall back into the hands of Dajin. If the Ming army that could still be defeated at one time, even if Dajin could temporarily be stable in the future, he would not be able to attract important Ming troops like Chenyang.

"If you all think so, I, Jurchen, will never be able to get the Han people's prosperity again!"

Nurhaci's insistence made Bele and the ministers dare not speak.

At this time, Fan Wencheng made a suggestion, and he said that Liu Shimao would not know that Du Song and Ma Lin had lost the news at this moment. It would take three days at the earliest when Chen Yang passed the news to him.

Therefore, King Khan could use the three-day time difference to send someone to pretend to Du Song's tribe to lure Liu Jing to continue in depth, and then set up an ambush to annihilate Liu Jing's tribe to destroy Liu Jing's tribe at the lowest cost.

Nurhaci adopted Fan Wencheng's suggestion and ordered Li Yongfang and Tong Yangxing to select brave soldiers, and set out first with the seal of Du Song's troops to trick Liu Jing into continuing to go deeper, while the other troops were ready to set out eastward.

Later, the soldiers of Ada Haid, the son of Eyidu, were ordered to guard Gule Village. For each banner, there were two or three Niulu, and for a few Niulu, they were left. On the one hand, they were escorted prisoners and returned to Heituara, and on the other hand, they monitored the Ming army defense camp on the east bank of the Hun River. These left-behind soldiers were unified under the command of Ada Hai.

Before leaving, Nurhaci personally summoned Adahai to give advice, pointing out that the remnants of Malin's fleeing to Kaiyuan in the north were not worth worrying, and the Yehe tribe who came with Malin could not have the courage to continue to advance eastward. Therefore, Adahai mainly faced the Ming army of Dusong on the east bank of the Hun River, Duri Ahana's remnants.

"The Du Song's military supervisor is still capable, so don't underestimate it. If they don't move, don't worry. If they move, don't worry, don't worry. Just guard Gule Village."

After arranging these, Nurhaci turned over and led his soldiers to the east in a hurry.

Seeing that the Khan King was like this, there was nothing else to say to the Eight Banners. Even if they immediately sleep with their horses on their necks, they would never want to disappoint the Khan King.

...........

Gule Village is the former Gule City of Jianzhou. It was built by Wang Gao, the commander of the Right Guard of Jianzhou during the Jiajing period.

Wang Gao was very ambitious and wanted to unify the Jurchen tribes. Therefore, after the rise of his troops, he carried out large-scale expansion of Gule City, with more than 500 large and large houses built in the city.

Wang Gao intended to use this city to establish his overlord status in the Jurchen tribes, and thus compete with the Ming army. However, Wang Gao's ambitions did not last long. He was defeated by Li Chengliang in the third year of Wanli, and was later dismissed by the Ming army to Beijing to live. He first cut off his flesh and bones, then his limbs, and finally his throat was cut off. His death was tragic.

After Wang Gao's death, Gule City was burned by the Ming army.

In the 27th year of Wanli, Nurhaci wanted to rebuild this city, imitating Wang Gao to use this city as the foundation of Jianzhou, but Li Chengliang was still there at that time. Nurhaci was afraid that rebuilding Gule City would touch Li Chengliang, so he had to choose the capital of Jurchen in his mind in Heituara, which was more than a hundred miles away from Gule City.

However, although Gule City was not rebuilt, since it was located east of Fushun, south of Jiefan Mountain, north of Zakar Pass, and west of Heituara, one place could be controlled everywhere, so Nurhaci naturally could not let such a heavy land be abandoned, so he moved several Niulu's tribes to settle in Gule's abolished village, and set up a station under Jianzhouwei here to be responsible for the flood roads in Fushun and Heituara.

Because of the Six Forts of Kuandian, the court sent the Ministry of War to serve Xiong Mingyu and Wei Liangchen, the Secretary of the Secretariat, to Jianzhou, and stayed in Gule Village for one night.

After Nurhaci established the Jin Kingdom, he officially rebelled against the Ming Dynasty with the "Eight Great Hates", and successively captured Fushun, Qinghe and other places. Not only did he double the control of the Jin Kingdom, but the status of Gule Village became more and more important. So on the basis of the original Niulu, the village was placed under the rule of the Enanghongqi.

After Adahai received his order, he immediately brought people into Gule Village. Adahai hated the Ming army to the core because his third brother Cherge was beheaded by the Ming army in Kuandian last year.
