Daming One Piece

Chapter 185 Tianzhu Dajin (I wish everyone a happy new year, all the best, and a fortune in the new year!)
On June [-]th of the sixth year of Apocalypse, tens of thousands of Ming troops gathered outside Ningyuan City. Their expressions were a little complicated, a little excited and also a little nervous.

Send troops to Liaoyou!

Recover Liaodong!

This is of course their hope, but going out to the city to fight in the field, or fighting with Jurchen soldiers, can they survive?
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, you haven't heard of it, there is a plague on Jurchen's side, ten rooms are empty, people are almost dead, let's just kill them."

When the soldiers are talking to each other,
Zu Dashou, Man Gui and the others all looked worried. Before sending out troops, they had opposed it.

It seems quite reasonable to send troops when the Jiannu plague hits hard, but why should the Ming officers and soldiers not be killed by the deadly plague?

"Hey!"

Man Gui looked up at the sky, with a trace of sadness between his brows.

"I really don't know what the supervisor thinks."

"What do you think? He..."

Zu Dashou opened his mouth, but still didn't say anything, he shook his head and let out a long sigh towards Yuan Chonghuan, who was talking and laughing with the eunuch of the supervising army.

"Brother, do you really think that our chief supervisor really sent out this soldier for the imperial court?"

"For the court..."

Zu Dashou smiled coldly, but did not speak.

He was there for the court, obviously for himself, Master Yuan Dadu was only for his own official position!

But they have to risk the lives of nearly [-] troops!
This Grand Superintendent Yuan...is really cruel.

"Master, without the permission of the imperial court, you have sent troops so rashly, if you will be investigated at that time..."

Although Liu Yingkun, the eunuch of the military supervising army outside the pass, hoped to regain Liaodong, he was inevitably still a little worried.

"Elder-in-law, don't need to worry. The purpose of sending troops this time is to advance dozens of miles to consolidate the fortresses in Ningyuan, and to build a few long trenches to prevent the invasion of the slaves in the future. It has been agreed, His Majesty and the court agree..."

Yuan Chonghuan said softly while comforting Liu Yingkun.

"Besides, let's start with a trial and see how Jiannu reacts! If the situation is wrong, Yuan will withdraw the army, and it will definitely not harm the overall situation."

A few hours later, the army finally set off in a mighty way. It seems that this expedition is not much different from previous years. It is nothing more than digging a few more long trenches and pushing the Tuntian line to the east. But is such encroachment useful? ?
I'm afraid only God knows.

As soon as Yuan Dadu led an army of tens of thousands, the spies of Jiannu sent the news back to Shengjing. What the spies saw on the way back to Shengjing was a ghost land. Fortress, this city has become a dead city.Inside and outside the city, no one could be seen at all.

This sudden outbreak of plague spread almost throughout Houjin. No one knew how it spread and how it spread. Whether it was the dead or those who fled, they never dreamed that the smallpox was not infected by humans. , and the reward they just received.But even when they fled, they didn't forget to bring more things, such as quilts, leather robes, and of course cloth, after all, cloth can't be spun in the white mountains and black waters, and cloth is expensive for Lao Jin I can't lose it.

And when the spies brought the news all the way to Shengjing City, inside and outside Shengjing City, it looked like a dead city. At this time, no one could even take care of the spies. After all, many people died in the city every day. Princes and ministers, what kind of banners are coated, no one can be spared in the face of the plague.

However, as long as the Da Jin Dynasty is together, the military situation reported by the spies will still be sent to the palace.

It seems that offering sacrifices to innocence really works!
The day after he asked his nephew A Min to sacrifice to heaven on his behalf, early in the morning, Nurhachi felt that the heat and pain all over his body had eased a lot.

"Is it possible that God blesses me to survive this plague?"

Nuharh only thought that this was a sign from the heavens. Smallpox may be fatal, but it does not mean that the infection is fatal. One in a hundred people will always survive.

After feeling better, he got up from the sickbed, supported by several eunuchs with pockmarked faces, and then walked into the courtyard.When he came to the yard, Nurhachi looked up at the sky. The blue sky was like washing, but there seemed to be a foul smell in the air, and there were some smoke pillars. He looked at those smoke pillars and couldn't help asking:

"What's the matter with the smell and the smoke..."

"Returning to the sweat, this is the smell of the plague-dead people in the city, and the smoke is the smoke column of burning houses..."

"what……"

Nurhachi's face suddenly changed.

"Heaven, don't tell me, you really want to kill all the Jurchens in the world..."

Speaking of this, Nurhachi's old tears rolled down, and he couldn't cry.

This time, his heart was really filled with fear, because too many Jurchens died, how many Jurchens are there in the world?
Can it withstand such a plague?
When such a plague is over, how many real maidens will be left in Dajin Kingdom?

It was at this time that Erbeile Amin came to see him.

"Qi Khan, I just received a report from the spies. Yuan Chonghuan personally led [-] Ming troops, claiming to be [-], and killed them all the way to the east. Judging by the posture, it doesn't look like they came out to expand the trench."

In previous years, the Ming army would advance eastward for dozens of miles every year and build a long trench in order to stop the soldiers of the Dajin Kingdom. However, the number of troops dispatched in previous years was limited, only more than [-].

"This is obviously to take advantage of the time when so many people have been killed by the plague on our side, and come here to take advantage of the fire."

When Nurhachi spoke, there was a deep sense of despair on his face.

If it was a month ago, he would definitely have excitedly mobilized the army because of the dispatch of the Ming army, and fought with the Ming army. Such a field battle is extremely rare.

But only [-] Ming troops!

As long as this Ming army is eaten, the situation of Dajin will be greatly improved. At that time... But it is not a month ago, how many people are there in Dajin now?

"Amin, how many people died in this plague?"

"Back to the words of the Great Khan, tens of thousands of banner soldiers have died of diseases, and tens of thousands more have contracted the plague..."

Amin sighed.

"When I came to the palace, I met many people who fled. In Shengjing City, they are either waiting to die here, or they are people who escaped and wanted to escape back to Jianzhou to save their lives."

It's only been a month!
Nurhachi's eyes were full of despair. Twenty days ago, he was so proud when he formed an alliance with Obama. At that time, he even imagined that one day he would come to Beijing, and even enter Beijing, and ascend the throne in Beijing. proclaim oneself emperor.

But now?
"Could it be that God really won't allow me to be Da Jin?"
