Zhu Youjian: Taizu has an order! kill!

Huang Taiji left, heading north without looking back.

Ma Xianglin, who was sleeping with his armor on, looked at the sun the next day and couldn't help but sigh again.

After all, all the hard work was in vain...

That's all, after taking control of Shenyang City, quickly retreat back to the court.

Your Majesty is still waiting for them.

Two whole days!

The fire in Shenyang City never stopped.

Liu Xingzuo led the Beijing camp to turn Shenyang, which had become an empty city, into ashes again.

This time I did it more thoroughly than last time!

Not only did Huang Taiji's palace be completely bulldozed.

At the same time, dozens of meters long holes were torn out in all the surrounding city walls.

The outer moat has also been filled in.

It can be said that there is not a single standing pillar or complete tile in the entire city.

Based on this situation, it would take at least half a year for the Tatars to restore Shenyang City's defenses.

On the third day, the army heading north began to withdraw from Shenyang.

Lu Xiangsheng led the cavalry to return to Datong through the Mongolian border.

Sun Guozhen led the Liaodong cavalry back to Shanhaiguan along the Jinjiang defense line.

The Jingying and Baigan Army occupied the two cities of Guangning and Xiping according to what His Majesty said.

The two cities are each other's horns, with the Liaodong defense line behind them as support.

Given the current situation of the Jin Tatars, they won't even be able to think about it in a short period of time.

By the time they finished what they were doing and returned to the capital, it was already half a month later.

----------------------

"Taizu!"

"This stupid Japanese pirate dared to take the opportunity to attack my coastal town."

"It's really arrogant!"

In the side hall.

Zhu Youjian, who had been in a good mood these past few days, now looked gloomy.

Although the two armies achieved good results in the north.

But in the coastal areas, the Japanese pirates are coming again!

Just when the main force of the Ming Dynasty was looking for trouble with Huang Taiji.

More than [-] Japanese pirates took boats and attacked coastal cities such as Fujian.

After grabbing and running, it highlights a disgusting thing!

When the surrounding defenders arrived, they saw only flames filling the sky and the bodies of the people.

After receiving the information, Zhu Youjian was so angry that he turned the table over.

This is really a wave of ups and downs!

Not only that, as March enters the northern border of Shaanxi, there are already signs of severe drought.

Jin Yiwei reported that, as expected, Shaanxi will have no harvest this year.

In an instant, Zhu Youjian's pressure was filled again.

"It's started..."

Li Chen, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but shook his head after hearing what Zhu Youjian said.

Starting from the first year of the year, the entire Ming Dynasty will not be able to live in peace for the next 17 years.

Disasters every year are no joke.

What made Li Chen a little strange was why the Japanese pirates came.

If I remember correctly, the Japanese pirates passed through Jiajing and were almost wiped out in the Longqing Dynasty.

Historical records of Japanese pirates in the Ming Dynasty basically stop at the Tianqi period.

I have never heard of Japanese pirates causing trouble during the Chongzhen Year...

Is it because of the butterfly effect caused by changes in historical trends?

"The Ming Dynasty's biggest enemy has finally arrived."

"A natural disaster has begun. Be prepared."

"The next 17 years are going to be very difficult."

"As for the Japanese pirates..."

"Find out how they got here first."

"If we remember correctly, the Japanese country has stabilized internally at this time, and there should be no such large-scale Japanese pirates."

"I'm afraid there's something wrong here."

The emergence of Japanese pirates has always been related to the internal affairs of the Japanese country.

And this means that no matter how tens of thousands of people look at it, nothing is right.

"It's Taizu."

"Are we going to send troops to guard the seaside?"

Zhu Youjian asked with an ugly face, rubbing his forehead.

He had only read about Japanese pirates in books.

But I also know how difficult these things are.

Just like psoriasis, there's nothing you can do about it if it's hit and run.

"It's useless to guard."

"The Ming Dynasty's border is too vast, how can it be seen."

"The best way is to destroy the Japanese country."

"If you can't solve the trouble, then solve the person who caused the trouble."

Beware of Japanese pirates?

How to prevent?

The border is so long, how can we take care of it all?

Even if it could, how much would it cost?

"But we can't attack Japan for the time being."

"We can't let them continue to cause trouble at the border."

"Those who died were all citizens of the Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Youjian frowned slightly in confusion.

Taizu should know that the Ming Dynasty is now unable to attack the Japanese country.

"Simple."

"Let professionals do professional things."

"The best way to stop Japanese pirates is to stop them before they land."

"I heard that there is a pirate leader named Zheng Zhilong around Fujian."

"This person can be used."

"But let us think about this further."

"Go and entertain the generals first. Don't worry about the Japanese pirates."

Li Chen waved his hand to indicate to Zhu Youjian not to worry.

After a year or two, there are plenty of ways to kill them.

Of course, they certainly can't be allowed to plunder so easily.

They need to find someone to trouble them.

One Piece Zheng Zhilong is a good choice.

It's just that this person is a bit complicated, and Li Chen has to think about how to use him.

"Okay, then I'll go see those generals first."

"I won't disturb you Taizu."

Zheng Zhilong?

Zhu Youjian was not very familiar with this person.

But since Taizu said so, he felt a lot more at ease.

Even Hou Jin Tazi was beaten to death by Taizu, and the mere Japanese pirates were really not a big deal.

Just wait for Taizu to arrange it.

After leaving the side hall, Zhu Youjian strode to another hall gate.

As soon as he entered, he saw Liu Xingzuo and others already waiting.

Seeing Zhu Youjian coming in, they all knelt down on one knee and greeted Zhu Youjian.

"I have seen Your Majesty!"

"Get up."

"My dear companion, I would like to offer you a seat."

Zhu Youjian sat in the main seat and looked at everyone, then raised his hand to signal Wang Chengen to move the chair.

This is not a main hall, so there is no need to be too restrictive.

After everyone sat down, Zhu Youjian said with a smile.

"My dear friends, you have done a great job by joining forces to defeat the Hou Jin Tatars."

"It also makes me completely believe that the so-called Eight Banners of the Later Jin Dynasty are just blown out."

"You can't stand up in front of the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Youjian's words made the group of people below look at each other.

Lu Xiangsheng, who was sitting at the edge, stood up after pondering for a moment.

"Your Majesty, it was just a defeat. It did not completely disintegrate Hou Jin."

"This attack exposed many problems of our Ming army."

"But please rest assured, Your Majesty, we will do better next time!"

Although Zhu Youjian was praising them, as the generals in this war, they were not very happy.

The main force of the Ming Dynasty came out to force the Tatars back.

It's really not a big win.

"What Lu Aiqing said is wrong."

"I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Besides, if we can recapture the second city of Guangning and Xiping, we have already reversed the offensive and defensive positions."

"The Tatars can no longer approach the border, let alone plunder my border people."

"If things continue like this, it will only be a matter of time before Hou Jin is defeated."

Seeing that Lu Xiangsheng was still a little modest, Zhu Youjian shook his head and said simply.

Taizu had already analyzed this battle in detail for him.

Regardless of the casualties, the strategic goal was achieved after all.

If you achieve it, it’s victory!

Moreover, Taizu also proposed an idea that surprised him.

That is to use Tatars to train troops.
