Chongzhen Chat Group

Lu Xiangsheng was overjoyed when he heard this. He had originally planned to go out and wander around, maybe even fight a tough battle, or take a detour to attack other places in Liaodong to beat Jianlu, so as to attract Jianlu's attention. Support the comrades in Gaizhou.

But now that there is news from the emperor, it goes without saying that the paper tiger will be pierced!

But the only thing to worry about is that Jianlu pretends that the army is still there, so Tanma often goes out of Xiaoheishan, and may even come to Jinzhou for a wander. If you want to attack the Jianlu camp in Xiaoheishan and capture Xinjincheng, you must plan carefully.

Therefore, Lu Xiangsheng immediately summoned his generals to hold a military meeting and explained the military situation. When his generals heard this, they couldn't help but be overjoyed, and they were all gearing up to do something big!

However, Mao Chengzuo also expressed a different view with some doubts: "Master Zhongcheng, this matter is not trivial. If the news is wrong and Jianlu has ambushed a heavy army and is waiting for us to surrender, Jinzhou will be captured by them!" "

As soon as he said these words, it was like a bucket of cold water being poured down on him. The lobby, which had been in a cheerful atmosphere just now, suddenly became cold.

Yes, could this be Jianlu's trick? He knew it was difficult to win Jinzhou, so he used such a strategy to lure the snake out of its hole! Without the support of a tall city wall, it would be really uneconomical to fight Jianlu.

Seeing this scene, Mao Chengzuo reported again: "Lord Zhongcheng, when Jianlu attacked Liaoyang, he showed his weakness to the enemy and attracted the officers and soldiers to leave the city. Then the ambush troops were all out, and the army led by the commander-in-chief who left the city was The whole army was wiped out, and there were traitors in Liaoyang City to respond. With the power of victory, the Jianlu people cooperated with each other from the inside and outside, and they took Liaoyang without losing many people!"

With this reminder, these people in the Dongjiang Army are all from Liaodong, so they naturally know this matter. After thinking about it carefully, they become more cautious! They all looked at Lu Xiangsheng, waiting for his decision.

When Lu Xiangsheng heard this, he couldn't help but become cautious. It's not that he's afraid of death, but that his decision is too important, involving the lives and deaths of tens of thousands of people, and the entire situation in Liaodong.

After thinking about it, he turned to Wei Mulan, who had been standing next to him, and said, "Check with your majesty whether the source of the information is reliable!"

He didn't need to say any more. If the emperor asked, Wei Mulan could hear it just now, so she would naturally be able to answer it herself.

Wei Mulan also knew that whether the news was reliable or not was of great importance, so she agreed without hesitation and immediately entered the chat group.

Emperor Chongzhen had been staying in the chat group and received Wei Mulan's private message. Wei Mulan also took the initiative to explain the importance of whether the news was true or not, so he couldn't help but become cautious.

He immediately analyzed in his mind that Hai Lanzhu should be fine. As for Bu He, before revealing the news to himself, he specifically asked himself whether he would agree to marry Hai Lanzhu, and he also wrote down the contract, and all the other things before...

After thinking for a long time, Emperor Chongzhen did not think there would be any problem in making peace. After all, Bu He's eventual leaning towards the Ming Dynasty was revealed step by step. It doesn't make sense to say that Bu He is so cunning that he has been acting out hypocritically and finally tried to trick him.

Even if you take ten thousand steps back, if the Jinzhou Ming Army was tricked by him, how much loss would it cause to the Ming Dynasty? It doesn’t seem that it can determine the balance of power between the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and there will be fundamental changes, right?

If there is no problem with Buhe, could it be that Yue Tuo revealed the false news? Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen also shook his head, feeling that it was impossible! Because Bu He is an old fox, Yue Tuo probably doesn't have the ability to deceive Bu He. Besides, at this time, who would have thought that Bu He had already surrendered to him?

Emperor Chongzhen thought about it and finally felt that the news should be true. At this time, he suddenly discovered a shortcoming of the chat group, which is that the source of information is a bit single. If a member of the chat group commits fraud or is deceived by others and reports something that is not true, there are few ways for him to verify it. You may miss something big!

After thinking about it, he decided to add more people. If there are two people suitable to be factory guards in a place, they should both develop into factory guards without knowing each other. After mutual confirmation, more channels can be used to confirm the news. The authenticity!

Sometimes, as a superior, you cannot guarantee that you will do something 100%, but when things come to a close, you must make a decision. Emperor Chongzhen thought for a while and then replied to Wei Mulan: "The news is reliable!"

Lu Xiangsheng was also a decisive person. As soon as he heard the emperor's reply that the news was reliable, he did not hesitate and immediately began to discuss the military situation based on what he had learned. About half an hour later, a discussed plan was reported to Wei Mulan Emperor Chongzhen approved.

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen already had an action plan in his hands, which Sun Chengzong asked Liu Wang to pass on. He looked at the two action plans, and after pondering for a while, he replied and agreed to implement them!

In Haizhou City, Huang Taiji was listening to the report of the pioneer general Jierhalang. After listening, he couldn't help but nodded and said: "It's Qing's work that makes me feel at ease! You rushed to complete these siege equipment in such a short period of time, which shows that you are attentive!"

Having said this, he paused and then said: "I don't know if the Gaizhou Ming Army has large artillery! I'll give it a wide berth, so let's take it as a given. As a result, the siege equipment currently being built is still a little short. . I don’t like the war in Gaizhou to continue. If we want to fight, we should fight it all at once. This is the most food-saving way. Just spend more money and food in these few days, and wait a few more days!"

"Your Majesty is wise!" Jierhalang replied with admiration. Once this account is calculated, it is indeed the most economical account according to the emperor! He only cares about the present and asking for instructions for the army to attack is a bit short-sighted.

As he was thinking this, he heard Huang Taiji say again: "When I came here before, I had already ordered the surrounding cities to escort all existing siege equipment, no matter how many, to Haizhou. Calculating the time, it will be It will be here in the next two days! In this way, the more siege equipment our army has, the easier it will be for Gaizhou to be conquered at once!"

"Your Majesty is wise!" Jierhalang replied again with admiration. After leaving the imperial camp, he turned to look in the direction of Gaizhou, thinking to himself that this time he was not going to the capital region last year. This was the land of the Qing Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty could mobilize sufficient supplies, and the emperor was so wise. Shenwu. You dared to come and capture Gaizhou. You made the wrong idea!
