"Report..." One person knelt down on one knee and reported to the man sitting in the hall, "In the past two days, the losses of the scouting horses under my command have increased. I thought that Minggou has increased the intensity of scouting!"

The man in the hall has almost completely white beard and hair. At first glance, he looks like he is in his fifties or sixties. Although he was sitting in the majestic hall, surrounded by guards holding swords, and listening to military reports, he still felt that he could not muster any energy.

He was the slave chieftain who guarded Liaoyang and Aixinjueluo Amin, one of the four great belles of the Qing Dynasty. Although his actual age was less than fifty, the days after guarding Liaoyang were obviously not easy, so much so that he, who originally had ambitions to covet the throne, had aged a lot.

At this time, after hearing the military report, he was already a little numb. He waved his hand and said impatiently: "How many times have I seen this? Ming Gou is attracting the attention of the Qing Dynasty again, trying to cause some trouble somewhere. Bar!"

The scout war between Anshan Yibao and Liaoyang has never stopped. Sometimes, the Ming army suddenly strengthened its scouts. I don't know how many times the Liaoyang side thought that the Ming army was preparing to attack Liaoyang, so they had to mobilize their troops as well. Send generals and strengthen vigilance. But after being highly nervous, the Ming army stopped again and did nothing, causing Liaoyang to panic for a while.

Although there were indeed actions on several subsequent occasions, the Ming army's intensified scouting campaign in Liaoyang was just to attract the Qing's attention and then move elsewhere. For example, the most recent incident was the robbery of grain in Zhenjiang Fort.

After doing this for a long time, Amin became really numb. Although his many years of experience on the battlefield told him that this was not good, there was nothing he could do about it. The Qing Dynasty only had such a little strength, and it could not defeat Anshan Castle, so it could only waste its time.

This was going on, and I didn't know that after the Ming army suddenly strengthened its scouts, they would really take action against Liaoyang. In the past, he cared about this very much. I would rather believe it or not, but my nerves were tense. After being tense for a long time, I never saw a real attack by the Ming army on Liaoyang. After too many times, the continuous consumption of food supplies and troops really made him unable to cheer up.

Just like this time, Amin was no longer nervous. He waved his hand and said, "Just ask all ministries to strengthen their alert. In addition, as usual, send a military intelligence report to Shenyang. That's it!"

After finishing speaking, he stood up and stretched out. He was really feeling a little exhausted. He might as well go and rest!

The distance from Liaoyang to Shenyang can be reached by horseback in less than a day. Huang Taiji, who had also aged a lot and lost a lot of weight, also felt helpless when he received Amin's military intelligence report.

Without knowing the specific situation of the Ming army, it is really impossible to make a judgment based only on the intensity of the scout battle!

Feeling the lack of information, Huang Taiji couldn't help but think of the people he sent to Guan.

At the beginning, he sent Ning Wanwo, but he only asked Jianghu to bring news once, and then there was no news again. I originally thought that Fan Wencheng was more capable than Ning Wanwo, but I didn't expect that after he entered the customs, he actually After so long, there is no news.

The pass was like a bottomless pit, and he felt that sending people there would be of no use. In this current situation where there is no news, one is really deaf and blind. He has all his fighting power but cannot use it at all. The feeling of being beaten passively was really unbearable.

Because the food from North Korea was once again robbed by Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Denglai, the morale of the Qing Dynasty was extremely low now. This lifeless look was completely unlike what it should have been in the first few years of the founding of the country. Think about it, this was not the case a few years ago, and the change is so fast!

Today, Huang Taiji is still working hard to avoid these situations, and has been propaganda, telling his people of the Qing Dynasty that as long as they wait until the autumn harvest, the Qing Dynasty will no longer be short of food. However, the effect of this kind of publicity is not good.

As for the reason, Huang Taiji actually knew it well. Year after year, I said this again and again, but in the end it never became a reality. After too many times, no one believes this.

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji also lost the military memorial. This was not the first time that the intensity of the scout battle had increased. In this situation, he had no other choice. Without accurate information, he did not even dare to send a single soldier.

Sighing, he stood up from the throne, walked out of the palace, looked at the clouds in the sky, a little dazed. In his heart, he kept asking God: "Where is the way out for the Qing Dynasty?"

Oboi followed Huang Taiji, silently looking at his master who raised his head and looked at the sky, feeling very aggrieved by this. It is clear that the Qing Dynasty has strong fighting power. In the past, the Ming army did not dare to fight in the field, which is a good proof. But now, it is better. The Ming army scouts are arrogant, but the Qing Dynasty has the intention to avoid fighting. Also, the life in the Qing Dynasty was as lifeless as a dying old man, which also made Obai, the first warrior of the Qing Dynasty, feel particularly uncomfortable.

At this moment, Huang Taiji suddenly spoke, and he pointed in the direction outside the palace and said: "In the past, I could hear the noise coming from outside the palace from time to time. At that time, I felt it was a bit noisy. Those people didn't understand. Etiquette prohibits any further noise around the imperial city. But now, I don’t know why, but I really want to hear the laughter coming from outside the palace again, as well as the confident and heroic voice, the fearless and arrogant voice. I... …What’s wrong with me?”

After hearing this, Ao Bai felt the same in his heart. At this moment, he felt that he also wanted to hear the sounds his master said. The Qing Dynasty is now in a bleak state, which is really uncomfortable.

When he was thinking about what to say in response to his master's words, he heard rapid footsteps coming from outside the palace. Nowadays, the palace is very quiet, but the sound is a bit loud. The sounds of people talking outside didn't really come in. They could be heard vaguely.

"……North Korea……"

"... His Highness asked Babaili to send the news urgently..."

After hearing the vague words, Huang Taiji's face suddenly became very ugly. Even Obai, who felt he was fearless, also changed his face. In fact, in the past few years, they have been rushing to eight hundred miles time and time again, and every time they received bad news that was difficult for them to accept. This time it has been a long time, and in the minds of Huang Taiji and others, eight hundred miles of urgency and bad news are almost the same.

At this time, there is another eight hundred miles emergency. What kind of bad news can this be? Thinking of the military intelligence report sent from Liaoyang Amin, Huang Taiji was suddenly shocked. Could it be that the Ming Dynasty sent troops to attack North Korea? If this is really the case, will the Qing Dynasty save it or not? If troops are sent to rescue them, what will happen to Liaoyang and Shenyang? Where do the grain and grass supplies come from...

Headaches popped up one after another, and Huang Taiji felt like he couldn't stand any longer. Those people are always thinking about this position. Do you know how difficult it is to be in this position every day?

Huang Taiji thought this way, and even suddenly had the idea that he didn't want to listen to the eight hundred miles urgent report sent from North Korea.

However, at this moment, a chamberlain appeared from the other side of the courtyard. There was no ugly look on his face, and he hurried over.

"Master, Master, it doesn't seem to be bad news." Obai saw it with sharp eyes and felt happy in his heart. He quickly stepped forward, approached Huang Taiji, and reminded him like a treasure.

Huang Taiji's eyesight was not as good as Obai's. He originally wanted to turn around and go back to the Chongzheng Hall, but when Obai reminded him, he felt happy and quickly fixed his eyes.

At this time, the chamberlain hurried over and got closer, even Huang Taiji could see clearly. Sure enough, as Obai said, there was really no panic like when reporting the news before.

At this moment, Huang Taiji unconsciously took a few steps forward, eager to hear the good news about North Korea's arrival as soon as possible. It actually took eight hundred miles to expedite the delivery? Could it be... Could it be that North Korea has received a large amount of food from Japan again?

"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Korea eight hundred miles away, a great victory for the Japanese country, and an unexpected harvest!" the chamberlain said, holding the urgent document with both hands.

Upon hearing this, Huang Taiji's excited heart suddenly became much colder. Not food! How much does the great victory of Japan have to do with the Qing Dynasty, and how much can it help improve the current situation of the Qing Dynasty?

At this time, Huang Taiji suddenly found that he had stepped down the steps. So, he hurriedly stopped, took the urgent document, and opened it without haste. He turned around and walked slowly to Chongzheng Hall and sat down, then took out the urgent document and started reading.

Oboi has been following him. Watching his master's movements, the anticipation that surged in his heart also dropped. Japanese country? It's not like Japan's Guan Daqing was sending food over!

At this time, in the eyes of the Manchus and Qing Dynasties, food was the first priority.

When Obai was thinking this, he suddenly saw Huang Taiji's face flushed red, and he stood up from the throne. He seemed a little impatient. He held the urgent document in his hand and couldn't help but say: : "Great, great, this is great!"

Seeing this situation, Obai was a little surprised. His master had always been steady, so how could he behave like this? Out of curiosity, he quickly asked: "Master, is there any good news?"

Upon hearing this, Huang Taiji seemed to have an outlet for the joy in his heart. He immediately turned to look at Obai and said with a smile on his face: "The Japanese country has won a great victory. The Japanese country's Kyushu Island, which is close to North Korea, is basically under the control of Toyotomi Kunimatsu." . In the future, it will be much easier for me, the Qing Dynasty, to go to Japan from Korea. The most important thing is that I did not expect that during this battle, I would also contact Xiyi. Ying Erdai had even negotiated alliance conditions with Xiyi. As long as we, the Qing Dynasty, believe in Catholicism, and as long as we, the Qing Dynasty, can continue to help the Japanese Catholics conquer the world, then the Western Yi will do their best to help me, the Qing Dynasty."

Speaking of this, he even held Oboi's hand a little gaffefully and said: "The firearms of the Ming Dynasty were all taught by the Western Yi. Also, our Qing Dynasty has never had a naval force, and the Western Yi also promised that as long as the Qing Dynasty Ken and the Xiyi alliance will definitely send their navy to help the Qing Dynasty. The letter also said that the navy of the Ming Dynasty is not worth mentioning in front of the Xiyi fleet. The shortcomings of the Qing Dynasty against the Ming Dynasty , with Xiyi’s help, we can make up for it soon. By then..."

When Huang Taiji said this excitedly, Obai couldn't help but interrupt and asked: "Master, where is the food?"

For him, the two things his master just mentioned are still far away. What the Qing Dynasty needs most at the moment is food! food! food!

After hearing his size, Huang Taiji's excited mood finally calmed down a little. At the same time, he also found that he actually grabbed the hand of this slave, Obai, which was a rude thing. It was too rude.

He quickly retracted his hand, but there was still excitement on his face. He clapped his hands with a smile and said: "As long as we, the Qing Dynasty, continue to send troops to the Japanese country and conquer more lands for Toyotomi Kunimatsu, Toyotomi Kunimatsu has also promised. He would collect as much food as possible to return to the Qing Dynasty. Haha, Ying Erdai said in his heart that the Japanese army of the Tokugawa shogunate was actually similar to the previous Ming army. It was not difficult for the Qing army to defeat them! Moreover, the Japanese army was still It's not as good as the Ming Dynasty, where there are no big names in the country, but the princes from all walks of life have their own calculations and are not united."

At this point, Huang Taiji felt that he had said a bit too much, so he stopped talking about this topic and just told Obai: "Quickly, convey my decree, I want to hold a court meeting!"

The so-called court meeting cannot be compared with the court meeting of the Ming Dynasty. The people who discussed the affairs of the Qing Dynasty were actually only a few princes and princes. Shenyang City could not compare with the capital. Soon, everyone arrived at Chongzheng Hall. Daishan originally didn't want to come, but when he heard there was good news, he came over.

The first time they saw Huang Taiji, they asked curiously, what good news was there?

For them, the good news in the past few years is like a rarity, so rare! Now that they heard there was good news, how could they not be curious!

This time, Huang Taiji had just been excited, but he wasn't that excited anymore. He finally got some good news, so he naturally had to handle it. First of all, he talked about his foresight, laying out North Korea, strengthening ties with Japan, etc. After hearing this, Hauge was very unhappy. He was so smart that he deposed his own son's crown prince position and sealed it. He killed his enemy as the emperor's younger brother, was this done by a human being?

Now you are still saying that this decision is wise and praising Dorgon. Do you know that after Azig failed at Zhenjiang Fort, he fled to North Korea and refused to come back. In my eyes, there is only Dorgon and not you. What are you doing? Raising tigers brings disaster, do you understand?

What a fucking pig brain!

Huang Taiji on the throne didn't know what his son was thinking. If he knew, he would probably kill Hauge. At this time, after finally explaining his foresight, he recounted the information in the urgent document.

Finally, he said with excitement and solemnity: "As long as the Qing Dynasty lasts until this autumn harvest, we, the Qing Dynasty, can make up for the two shortcomings of military and navy. In this case, I don't believe it. The Ming Dynasty Can you still be so arrogant?"

Having said this, he paused and then said decisively: "The artillery of the Western Yi is more powerful than the artillery of the Ming Dynasty. Even if I sell iron, I will build eight hundred of them and line them up to destroy the stronghold of the Ming Dynasty. The city was destroyed one by one!"

He had tasted the feeling of being bombarded by the Hongyi cannon, and now he wanted to give this feeling back to the Ming Dynasty and the young emperor of the Ming Dynasty!
