Chapter 1039 The Last Batch of Grain

"This is a reward from the emperor!" Azig said coldly, looking at his two younger brothers who were both the same father and mother, "There is a lot of belongings, eighteen people died of illness on the road, and they were killed when they tried to escape." 78, the rest are in the barracks, just go and check!"

Hearing that he spoke so impolitely, Duoduo also had a cold face, and said with a bit of sarcasm: "The emperor's strict order, I am afraid that you dare not disobey it!"

When Azige heard this, he immediately became angry, and when he was about to speak, it was Dorgon who smoothed things over and said: "We can trust it, there must be no problem."

He is now the emperor's younger brother. Azig heard that, although he has a bad relationship with these two younger brothers, he didn't relapse. He just said with a cold face: "The emperor ordered me to return the day after tomorrow. It is best not to lack less food!"

After finishing speaking, he didn't care about the reaction of the two younger brothers, turned around and walked out, as if he didn't want to stay with the two younger brothers for a moment.

Seeing the back of him walking out of the hall, Duoduo suddenly let out a "bah" and said viciously: "Why did the queen mother give birth to such a beast? Huang Taiji forced the queen mother to death. He is fine, but went to hug Huang Taiji's mother." Thigh, being a dog's leg is still very happy!"

After hearing this, Dorgon said with a cold face: "That's because of Huang Taiji's skill!"

After he finished speaking, he threw the imperial decree in his hand onto the table in front of him, and sat there looking at the boxes of belongings in front of him in thought.

"Brother, you don't really want to send so much food to Huang Taiji, do you?" Seeing him like this, Duoduo couldn't help asking in surprise, "I can't do this by sending food to the enemy. I think it's just If we want to take advantage of this opportunity to lose Huang Taiji's prestige, it is best to get out of the throne as soon as possible! Besides, we don't have much food! The food was bought by the children of our two banners fighting in Japan!"

Dorgon didn't answer right away. After being silent for a while, he stood up, walked out of the desk, came to the boxes of belongings, and looked at them one by one.

When Duo Duo saw it, he couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. He followed Dorgon, wondering what he was going to do?After waiting for a while, he finally couldn't help but asked, "Brother, are you talking!"

"Don't you think this property is a bit rich?" Dorgon stood at the last treasure box, picked up a string of jewels, and turned his head to ask Duo Duo while playing.

When Duoduo heard this, he was taken aback for a moment, and then a wave of anger surged up, and he couldn't help but said in a louder voice: "Brother, don't you just act because of these belongings?"

After hearing this, Dorgon twitched the corner of his mouth and smiled disdainfully. He looked down at the string of jewels in his hand and threw them back into the treasure box. I have come to Liaodong, but before the autumn harvest this year, Liaodong will not be able to survive. So much wealth, does it mean that Huang Tai is extremely anxious."

After hearing this, Duo Duo couldn't help gloating, but before he said anything, Dorgon turned around and walked to his seat, and at the same time said in a low voice: "Although Huang Taiji is our enemy, Liaodong is our Qing Dynasty. If there is a loss in Liaodong, even if we occupy North Korea and get involved in Japan, we will still be rootless duckweed. The Ming Dynasty is now powerful, and if Liaodong is gone, it will definitely continue to attack North Korea, and our situation will not be good! Therefore , saving Liaodong is also saving ourselves, do you understand this?"

At the end, he stopped in front of the seat, turned his head to look at Dodo who was following, and asked Dodo earnestly.

Duoduo listened, and when he heard the footsteps, he froze there.However, there was a clear expression of resignation on his face.

Seeing this, Dorgon sat back in his seat, took a look at the imperial decree, and then frowned and said: "The Ming Dynasty has been holding on to the fact that we are short of food and supplies in the Qing Dynasty, so I estimate that before this year's autumn harvest, The Ming army will definitely launch a big offensive. We Qing soldiers are all good fighters, but because of lack of food, we have been suppressed by the Ming country. This time, no matter what, we still have to support Liaodong."

Speaking of this, he felt that Doduo was still a little puzzled, so he continued to explain to him without waiting for Duduo to speak: "Liaodong has indeed reached the end of the mountain! Huang Taiji is completely fishing for the birth of Jurchen in the north. All the materials, all the materials that can be looted, it can be said that they should have swept across the entire northern part of the Qing Dynasty. Otherwise, there would not be so many Nurses sent to North Korea. In other words, the means that Huang Taiji can use It's all been used, without our support, he can't hold on!"

Doduo listened and remained silent.But it can still be seen from his eyebrows that he still seems to be unwilling, but not as strongly as before.

When Dorgon saw it, he turned serious and asked solemnly: "Do you want to watch the Ming army capture Liaoyang and Shenyang, and dig up the graves of Huang Ama and Huang Erniang? These things , do you really have the heart to see it?"

Having said that, he stared into Duduo's eyes, and then asked, "Or, do you think we can defeat the Ming army by leading the troops back to Liaodong now?"

As soon as these questions were asked, Doduo finally stopped insisting and kicked a belonging box on his side hard, and then said angrily: "What do you say, then do what you want!"

Seeing that Duo Duo had finally figured it out, Dorgon showed a hint of relief on his face. As his younger brother, he can still take care of the overall situation.However, his face soon became serious again, and he muttered to himself: "Although Azig brought 3000 troops here, [-] of them are from the Eight Banners of the Han Army. I am still a little bit dissatisfied with escorting the food back." Don't worry. We saved the food, and if it is lost, there is no place to make up for it. The situation in Liaodong will definitely become critical!"

Duoduo frowned and said, "Then what should we do? Let Huang Taiji send more people over?"

After hearing this, Dorgon still had a sad expression on his face: "The more troops you escort, the more food you will consume on the road, and the less food you can send to Liaodong."

After hearing this, Duoduo said helplessly, "Then what should I do?"

For a while, Dorgon didn't know how to deal with it. The reason was that there was too little food!
On the second day, Azig broke in to demand food.He had to do this. Before leaving, Huang Taiji asked him to explain the current situation in detail. The meaning was similar to Dorgon's analysis, and the north side also robbed the same. There was really no other way to conjure food.If Azig can't transport the grain back, Liaodong will be in danger.

So, Dorgon threw the question he was considering to Azig and said: "I have already had someone prepare the food, it's just a matter of safety on the road, what should I do?"

When Azig heard this, he couldn't help feeling a little worried.The Ming army in Anshan Yibao put a lot of pressure on Liaoyang.Huang Taiji dispatched a thousand elite members of the clan to come here, which is already the maximum.If it was changed to before, Azig would not be worried.But now, the offensive and defensive positions of the Qing and Ming countries have changed, and there have been many incidents of grain being robbed by the Ming army. No matter how reckless Azige is, he has to be cautious.

But no matter what, this grain must be transported to Liaodong.After discussion among the three, a plan was finally settled.

Two days later, Li Deming, who was lurking outside Seoul, used his binoculars to see Man Qing setting off with a large amount of grain from a distance.So, he immediately reported the news through the chat group: "Your Majesty, the Manchus have set off with a lot of food and supplies. It is still under the banner of Azig, and the number of people is still about [-]."

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen immediately spread the news to Haizhou.Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Denglai who was sitting here, immediately dispatched two thousand cavalry troops to lead the army out.In any case, these grains cannot be transported into Liaodong by the Manchus.

However, what he didn't expect was that four days later, Qian Fugui sent a private chat, which was provided by Hauge: "Your Majesty, North Korea hastened to report that the grain and grass have been shipped out. In order to prevent the Ming army from looting the grain, The [-] troops originally escorted by Azig were stroked. Among them, [-] Han soldiers and Eight Banners have been replaced by [-] Korean Jurchen elites, led by Duoduo. Shenyang will also send another [-] Jurchen elites to support them. After meeting, Duoduo will lead the army back to Seoul."

The second private chat was sent back soon, further explaining again: "The army escorting the food and grass will consist of [-] Jurchen elites and [-] Han Army Eight Banners along the way. Among them, the [-] Jurchen elites are mainly to guard against the Ming army's robbery. And the Eight Banners of the Thousand Han Army transported food and grass, which was convenient for the Jurchen elite to recharge their energy, and at the same time, it could also come in handy if there was a war.”

Emperor Chongzhen was shocked when he saw these two pieces of information.Unexpectedly, Man Qing was so cunning this time, using Jurchen elites to pretend to be the Eight Banners of the Han Army.Lu Xiangsheng just took two thousand cavalry troops out to rob grain. If there was a real fight, even if they could win, the Ming army of robbing grain would suffer heavy losses.For this, he did not want to see it.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen immediately passed the news to Lu Xiangsheng through Wei Mulan, asking him not to reveal his whereabouts for the time being and not to fight.Then, he immediately clicked on the icon of Gao Yingyuan, and ordered Cao Bianjiao, the new military division general who stayed in Haizhou, to lead two thousand new army infantry to reinforce.

Before it was over, he immediately contacted Li Zhiqi, the commander of the Denglai Navy, through Zheng Zhiwan.Ask him to bring more transport ships and go to the mouth of the Yalu River to stand by.Once the food is successfully robbed, it is inconvenient for the infantry and food to travel by land, and it is best to ship it away.Anyway, since Li Zhiqi returned from transporting food from the southeast of Daming before the end of last year, he has been resting at Lushun Port, so it's time for him to move.

According to the latest military situation, the Ming army in Liaodong immediately took action after a series of imperial edicts.In order to cooperate with this war, Cao Wenzhao, who was in Anshan Post Fort, also increased the pressure on Liaoyang, sending more and more Yebuxuan every day, and sometimes the scope of activities even appeared in the suburbs of Liaoyang.

This situation made Amin who was stationed in Liaoyang feel a lot of pressure, so he sent a fast horse to report the situation to Shenyang.This time, I didn't dare to say as much as last time, but just responded truthfully.In fact, he was thinking too much, and it was impossible for Huang Taiji to send troops to rescue him if he hadn't seen the Ming army actually appearing under the city of Liaoyang.The reason is very simple, there is really no food, and the only little food is used sparingly.

However, when Huang Taiji received this situation, he was also very worried, but he had no choice but to look east day by day.It can be said that he is looking forward to it day and night, and he is about to become a "watcher stone", hoping that the grain from North Korea will be shipped to Liaodong as soon as possible.

He very much agrees with Dorgon's method of escorting food.There are two thousand Jurchen elite guards, even if the Ming army does show up, he believes that the Qing army has the power to fight.If it was possible, he really wanted to send more troops out, but if there were too many people, he was afraid that the troops who didn't have enough food to escort the food would be consumed!

Like Huang Taiji, Dorgon in Seoul, North Korea, is also worried about these grains.Although he sent out the food, he also didn't want anything to happen to the food.Therefore, before setting off, he repeatedly told Duoduo and Azig to be careful and protect the food.Although there are basically no traces of Ming army activities on Phi Island today, or in North Korea, he is still a little worried, so he almost turned into a nagging old woman, until Azig and Duoduo became impatient , I didn't say any more.

If the Ming army wanted to rob food, the best countermeasure was the cavalry army. In this case, if they received the news and reacted, they might still be able to catch up.Otherwise, there would be no time to react, or they would sit on the sidelines, but if they waited, this time there would be no Pidao Ming army like before.Based on such a measure, Dorgon always felt that after such a deployment, there should be no problems.

There is a saying that if you are bitten by a snake for one day, you will be afraid of well ropes for ten years.

Under Dorgon's repeated instructions, the two Manchu chiefs who escorted the food and grass were very careful, no matter the front or the back, they all sent horses to check the safety.Even Doduo, who has always been known for his boldness, insisted on releasing the Tanma for thirty miles.

When he passed the area where he was ambushed before, that is, near Jinpu Town, Duoduo even insisted on sending scouts to search the surrounding area carefully. After confirming that it was correct, he agreed to the grain truck to move on.

Azig walked along with the grain truck, looked at the dilapidated Jinpu Town, and saw Duoduo being so careful, he couldn't help but sneered: "If I had been so cautious before, I would have been so cautious in the Qing Dynasty." It won't be so embarrassing!"

The amount of food robbed that time was huge. The Qing lost and the Ming army increased. This increase and decrease had a great impact on the changes in the strength of the Ming and Qing.

Doduo's face turned red when he heard this, but what is rare is that this time he didn't get angry and quarrel with Azig, but still appeared cautious, asking his guards about visiting horses from time to time, ignoring Azige.Obviously, he was terrified of the battle in Jinpu Town.

However, no matter how much he thought about it, there was a "humanoid radio" on the top of the mountain far away, watching the food escort team through the observation of the telescope.
