Chapter 19 Nuerhaci
Ganqing Palace
Zhu Youxiao was observing the Mongolian tribes in the south of the desert outside the Jiubian Army Town of the Ming Dynasty on the map. If you want to leave the pass with peace of mind, you must not only be able to safely enter the pass, but also clean up the forces at your doorstep.
Mongolia is now in chaos and has been completely divided. The three major tribes bordering the Ming Dynasty are Korqin, Chahar, and Tumote, as well as countless small tribes wandering between the Ming Dynasty and the stronger tribes.
The Korqin tribe is the closest to the old slaves. They have many marriages, and their geographical location is far from the Ming Dynasty.
The Tumote tribe was ambiguous, not close to the Ming Dynasty or the old slaves, and even couldn't get along with other movies.
The Chahar tribe is the nominal sect leader of various Mongolian tribes. The leader of the Chahar tribe is now the descendant of Genghis Khan, and the seventh-generation grandson of Dayan Khan, Lindan Batuer.
Lin Dankhan was also the 35th Khan of the Mongol Empire, but although this brother has a high status and great ambitions, he has always been committed to rebuilding the glory of the Mongol Empire and making the Mongol Empire as strong as the Genghis Khan period.
His ideas are good and right, but his abilities cannot support his ambitions.
Lin Dankhan and Emperor Chongzhen in history were of the same type of people, with great ambitions and talent, and had a changeable personality. One was the emperor of the Central Plains and the other was the Khan of the Grassland. In this way, he was beaten to the ground by Nurhaci and Huang Taiji.
Lin Danhan was beaten to have no place in Monan and ran directly to Qinghai. Emperor Chongzhen was also beaten and could not take care of himself.
Zhu Youxiao circled the Chahar tribe on the map with a red pen.
The reason why Zhu Youxiao chose Chahar is very simple. He knows Lin Danhan. Although he is currently the strongest tribe on the grassland, with his talent, he can still defeat him.
Moreover, Zhu Youxiao's battle was to tell the people of the world that the Ming Dynasty had not yet declined, and he also wanted to wipe out the shadow of war brought to the Ming Dynasty by the Battle of Sarhu.
The goal of this battle is to shock the Mongolian tribes, to make the Tumote tribe surrender to the Ming Dynasty, and to regain the military power of the three guards of Liaodong (Duoyan, Fuyu, Taining) for their own use.
"Parent Wang, send me my handwritten order to Sun Yunhe, and ask him to go to Xuanfu Datong to mobilize elite troops at night, check the situation of Chahar's troops for me, and draw a map. If the two towns of Xuanda are not good, let him go to Liaodong to mobilize Xiong Tingbi's night, and in short, I want Chahar's complete information."
"In addition, we are drafting an edict to order thirty experienced and capable people from all over the nine borders and eleven towns to stop entering Beijing."
When marching and fighting, intelligence is crucial. A simple piece of intelligence can affect the success or failure of the entire war. Later Midway Island has proved that fighting is not only about national strength and logistics, but also about which side has more and more accurate intelligence.
Zhu Youxiao stared at the map and pondered. The little eunuch outside came in to report:
"Prince, Xu Xianchun is here!"
"Your Majesty, these are all the test questions submitted in the past half month. Please check it out!"
It has been nearly twenty days since Zhu Youxiao issued the questions from the people. There are countless people going to Beizhenfushi every day to answer questions. Zhu Youxiao looked at the test questions submitted by Xu Xianchun, at least no less than five hundred.
Zhu Youxiao looked at the answers of these people carefully. Most of them were talking big on the grounds of overestimating their abilities. Some people even directly said what Xiong Tingbi was raising the Kou and respecting himself, which led to Nurhaci's current growth.
Some people also say that as long as the Ming Dynasty dispatched troops and generals, they could crush them all the way.
Zhu Youxiao read 50 answers in a row, and he really felt that he was overwhelmed. There wasn’t anyone with a little talent and knowledge in the Ming Dynasty?
It seems that there is no reason for the demise of the Ming Dynasty in history. These scholars are the mainstay of the Ming Dynasty, but now they are thinking about how to become officials and make money and regard the people as ants.
"Wang Chaofu, find a few eunuchs, check carefully, and pick out all the boastful and arrogant people for me to burn them!"
He turned his head to Xu Xianchun below and said:
"In the future, if someone submits questions to answer the questions in the Beizhenfusi, let your tiqi check it first. If you fail, burn them all. Don't taint my eyes!"
"I obey the order!"
Zhu Youxiao was stunned when he looked at the selected songs. Is it really not that talented people among the people?
It seems that there is no hope for Zhao Xianling to rely on the famous officials and generals in history.
"Parent Wang, what happened when I asked you to pass the imperial edict last time?"
What Zhu Youxiao said was naturally the last time he issued an order, which was the matter of Sun Chuanting, Song Yingxing and other fierce people. It has been more than ten days since then, and I don’t know where it has gone.
"The Emperor, only Xu Guangqi has news at the moment. He has now followed the Emperor's will to integrate the newly trained soldiers in Tongzhou. He should be able to arrive in Beijing the next day, and there is no news for others."
Xu Guangqi trained new recruits in Tongzhou under the order of Emperor Shenzong, but because Emperor Shenzong was burying the sky, the court did not support Xu Guangqi's idea at all, but Zhu Youxiao could not give up. These new recruits were carefully compiled by Xu Guangqi, at least they were useful.

Hetuala
"Khan, a large-scale investigation was carried out a few days ago. All spies sent by me were killed by the Xiong Manzi."
When Nurhaci heard this, he frowned.
"What's going on in Liaoyang? Are our people still there?"
And the following Fan Wencheng, who has a rat-tail braid with money, replied:
"Liaoyang has not changed, as usual."
"What's going on? How dare Xiong Manzi do this? Those Minggou have never dared to do this, so Yuan Yingtai didn't stop him?"
Fan Wencheng also replied in confusion:
"It's true that this is true. Now the ministers of the Ming court are impeaching Xiong Tingbi and wanting him to step down. At this time, he should be more cautious."
"And the last time the Khan attacked Puhe, the people in Beijing did not attack Xiong Tingbi, which is really incredible."
Fan Wencheng was also confused. With his understanding of those civil servants and gentry, shouldn’t he put pressure on Xiong Tingbi together at this time?
Why was there no movement in the Ming Dynasty? Xiong Tingbi was still beheading all the Jurchens and Mongols in Shenyang, but those civil servants didn't stop them?
Nurhaci's fourth son Huang Taiji stepped forward and said:
"Father Khan, Shenyang's inner support is gone. Are we still going south from the beginning of spring as planned?"
Nurhaci would not make a decision at this time. After all, what he is best at is cooperation inside and outside. This move is useless to Shenyang now.
"Look at the change first and see what the Ming court will do next. As soon as the men took Puhe, they should rest for a while and prepare for the spring plowing."
