"I am here to pay homage to the Lord, long live my emperor, long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long

Facing the minister who had fallen to the ground, Zhu Youxiao looked gentle and said loudly: "All the ministers, please be calm!"

"Now it is a matter of trouble, with the eastern captives rampant and the local chiefs rebelling, but it is also the time when all the ministers fight on the battlefield and make achievements." Zhu Youxiao's voice echoed in the hall, "I hope you and others are loyal, brave and fearless, serve the country and share my worries."

"I respectfully listen to the holy teachings and follow the holy decrees." The officials of the Ministry of Rites took the lead, and the Wu Jinshi agreed.

Zhu Youxiao smiled and looked very pleased, saying, "The palace examination policy is my own, and I will test the agility of all the ministers."

After saying that, Zhu Youxiao nodded at the examiner Sun Chengzong.

Sun Chengzong immediately bowed and bowed, stepped forward to read the imperial edict, and announced the questions for the palace examination.

After reading the book, everyone took their seats one by one. It was similar to the last palace examination. If we talked about the difference, it was that there was a famous brand on the desk.

This was a change specially ordered by Zhu Youxiao. He didn't know these martial Jinshi. He might not remember all the arrangements in this way, but he could have some impression.

His eyes slowly glanced at him, and the emperor's gaze stopped on Wu Xiang. His expression had not changed much, but his heart was not calm. Is this Wu Sangui's father?

After staying for a while, the emperor seemed to figure it out, then looked away and looked for another martial Jinshi. He did not know what glorious deeds this martial Jinshi had, but thought his name was very good.

That's right, it's Qi Shiguang, who is only one word short of Grandpa Qi, but has nothing to do with Grandpa Qi.

He looked very tall and mighty, and he answered the exam paper well. However, Zhu Youxiao frowned slightly. Is this guy's face a birthmark or was he beaten up?

Blinking his eyes, Zhu Youxiao suppressed his doubts and looked at other martial Jinshi.

Xu Hongyu is only one word different from Xu Huaiyu, but it is different from men and women. Zhu Youxiao's eyes are closed again, Panda Eyes? Is this non-mainstream makeup or is it bored by a punch?

The emperor looked around and found that several martial arts scholars had some injuries. There was no fighting event, so what did these guys do?

The martial arts top scholar with a bruised nose and a swollen face rides a horse to praise the street, okay?

Zhu Youxiao gently stroked his forehead and was a little confused.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

The autumn wind blows, the fallen leaves are all over the ground, and the bleak autumn in the north makes people feel desolate.

Nurhaci was free from his horse, as if he was enjoying the scenery, but he seemed to have already wandered around.

Give up Manpu, Changcheng, and Lushun Fort. Although the Ming army did not occupy it, the Later Jin did not have so many troops and could not guard the too remote fortress.

Of course, it is also possible to temporarily divide troops. The Ming army adopted a defensive stance and did not have the ability to take the initiative to attack in a short period of time.

But what is the significance of doing this? It is just a few forts, and even if the troops are sent to garrison, it cannot form a tight line of defense to prevent the enemy from attacking.

Alas, the strategic contraction of the Ming army was really a very clever move, which made our army unable to attack. If the deadlock could not be broken, just confrontation would be enough to drag down the Dajin!

The old slave shook the whip and felt a little irritated.

It is not easy to break the deadlock. If Xiong Manzi is in charge in western Liaoning, it must be a strong city and a deep trenches, which is even more difficult to attack than Guangning City;

The Dongjiang Army, distributed on the islands, is also a cunning opponent that is difficult to capture and even more difficult to eliminate for the Later Jin army, which lacks ship sailors.

There are also Mongolian tribes colluding with the Ming Kingdom, waiting for the weak Later Jin Dynasty to pounce on it and bite it?

Thinking of these enemies and the strategic situation of the Later Jin Dynasty, Nurhaci hesitated and hesitated about the originally planned winter offensive.

Although the materials are not abundant, it is still possible to persevere and wait for changes that are beneficial to the Later Jin Dynasty.

Starving to death?! Of course, this is inevitable. But the people who starve to death are also the Liao people and Han people, and the old slaves do not have any mercy.

But doing so is equivalent to leaving the initiative to the opponent.

You want to wait for your opponent to make a mistake and create an opportunity for attack. But you are not sure whether your opponent will become stronger. Tolerance is just sitting and waiting for death.

Thinking of the changes in the tactical style of the Ming army in the Battle of Lushun Fort and the losses of the Inlaid Blue Flag, the old slave put aside his hesitation and hesitation, and felt that it should be more correct to launch an attack in winter.

And such uncertainty has been repeated several times in Lao Nu's mind in recent times.

The rapid sound of horse hooves approached from a distance and stopped not far behind him. The old slave didn't even look back. If there was an emergency military situation, someone would come forward to report it.

Time was not long, and with the slow sound of hooves, the Great Beledaisan urged the horse to approach.

After the old slave was truce a few meters behind him, Dai Shan bowed and reported: "Father Khan, a Ming army of about 2,000 people landed on a boat and occupied Lushun Fort."

Is there another one?

Nurhaci pondered for a while and said in a deep voice: "Our army will not move for the time being, continue to investigate the situation of the Ming army."

"Be careful to follow the Khan's order." Daishan didn't say much and took the order and left.

Lushun, Jinzhou, and maybe Fuzhou is added. This place with the sea on three sides is really a headache!

Especially when Lushun Fort, if troops are sent to attack, the enemy may take a boat; or they may stick to Lushun Fort, but take advantage of the advantages of the ship to land in the narrowest Nanguan and block the army that attacks Lushun.

The two thousand people were probably looking at the abandoned Lushun Fort, and they were tempted. They sent troops to fight. The Ming army would probably take a boat to the sea again and could only kill them.

Nurhaci felt that the analysis was very clear, and he felt that even if the Ming army occupied Lushun Fort, it would not pose a major threat.

Lushun Fort can be abandoned, and there is no need to defend the coastal fortress. It is also a way to attract the Ming army to land and then launch a quick strike.

Moreover, when launching an attack in winter, it can also shrink greatly to save the number of troops garrisons and concentrate troops.

Temporary, contraction is only temporary. Just like the Ming army abandoned Guangning and retreated to Ningyuan and Juehua, it is almost the same.

The old slave finally made a decision that the winter attack must be carried out. As for the goal, it depends on the specific changes in the situation before it can be determined in the final analysis.

…………………………………

Fengcheng, known as Phoenix City in ancient times, was under the jurisdiction of Dandong City in later generations.

Because it is adjacent to Benxi in the north, Zhenjiang in the south, and Kuandian in the east, it is very convenient to reinforce the various places, Huang Taiji led the Zhengbai Banner to temporarily station here.

Amin was defeated in Lushun Fort, with heavy casualties; the two banners led by Daishan also suffered losses, but they only gained two empty cities, and then crossed the river to return helplessly, and they were empty-handed.

In terms of casualties, this failure has exceeded the Battle of Guangning. The Ming army's new tactical style also attracted the attention of many senior officials of the Later Jin Dynasty, including Lao Nu.

Huang Taiji had already regarded the Dongjiang Army as a confidant and reconsidered the difficulties that the Later Jin Dynasty would face from a strategic level.

However, all these changes should be traced from the Battle of Guangning. Especially after the Ming army abandoned Guangning and implemented the strategic retreat, the Later Jin seemed to be confused and passive.

Although not many people paid attention to the Later Jin Dynasty and did not consider it passive, Huang Taiji became more and more wrong. After careful analysis and research, he came to a relatively pessimistic conclusion.

"The Ming army abandoned Guangning, but Hudun Rabbit replaced it, and the effect of resolving it still exists." Huang Taiji frowned in front of the rough map, "The Ming court vigorously supported the Dongjiang army and blocked my Dajin together with North Korea."

Shaking his head gently, Huang Taiji stretched out his finger and passed by the vast coastal areas. "In addition, the Ming army in Dengzhen and Jinzhen have strengthened the military pressure and blockade on our Dajin."

Luo Xiujin pondered and said, "The 'three-party arrangement' of Xiong Manzi is already quite difficult. Now it is Hudun Rabbit, North Korea, Dongjiang Army, and the sea route of Dengzhenjin Town, which has become a 'four-party arrangement', which is even more vicious!"

For the Later Jin Dynasty, occupying a lot of cities and territory was not the most important. Food and food resources were essential for them.

So what if you occupy most of Liaodong, it is impossible to escape the natural disasters and the severe cold. Sitting on the mountain is to destroy yourself. If you send troops to rob, you must beware of enemies from other directions taking advantage of the situation.

Huang Taiji pointed at Ning Yuan with a strong force and said with a wry smile: "It seems that he will not fight against the abandoned earth, but it is a hidden murderous intent. If our army launches an attack, the supply line will be extended by hundreds of miles, and it will be difficult to provide food and grass. If it is trapped under a strong city, I am afraid..."

The main purpose of action battles is to loot, which can become consumption, which first violates the original intention and goes against the rules.

It would be fine if I rush to do it, but what if I failed? Even if I confronted the Ming army, it was not something that the Later Jin could bear. When I returned home hungry, I wonder how many people would die on the snowy road.

Luo Xiujin pointed to several rivers on the map and said, "If the river water freezes in winter, you can launch an attack. If it is other seasons, it will be traps and many dangers."

The Liaohe River and Sancha River are the traps in Luo Xiujin's mouth. With the strength of the navy, the Ming army destroyed the floating bridge, blocked the rivers, and cut off the food channels. It was simply too easy.

For such concerns, if the Later Jin wanted to launch an attack on western Liaoning, it could only be in winter. After the river freezes, there was no need to worry about the Ming Navy cutting off the retreat.

Luo Xiujin's reminder, or concern, is really right.

Lao Xiong had the combat plan of "Dang Ning Yuan rushing, with the horns of Juehua. The enemy peeked into the city and ordered the soldiers on the island to leave three chas next to them, break the floating bridge, and attack them horizontally."

Huang Taiji gently expressed his approval of Luo Xiujin.

His eyes turned to the east, crossed the Yalu River, stayed on Pi Island for a while, then turned to Shinyiju and Tieshan, and then North Korea.

Compared with the risk of attacking western Liaoning, North Korea is a soft seed.

If North Korea can be subdued, it will be equivalent to weakening the strength of the Dongjiang Army. Because many of the Dongjiang Army's supplies are supplied by North Korea.

But the timing of attacking North Korea did not seem to be appropriate. North Korea only had an economic blockade and helped the Dongjiang army, but did not directly engage in military conflicts with the Later Jin Dynasty.

I'm afraid that Father Khan will not agree to attack North Korea, at least under the current situation, he will not rush to take action.

Huang Taiji pondered, frowned, and fell into long periods of contemplation.
