It was already half a month later when Huang Taiji received the news that the Ming court and Zhao Lie had broken up with each other and wanted an army to attack Denglai.
This was sent back as soon as possible after careful inquiring.
Huang Taiji immediately ordered a gathering of princes and ministers to gather at the palace.
This was the first time in several months that Huang Taiji had convened a small court meeting, which showed that this matter was unusual.
Prince Hauge of Heshuosu, Prince Azig of Wuying County, Prince Jierhalang of Heshuo Zheng, Prince Dorgon of Heshuorui, Prince Duduo of Heshuoyu, Beile Abatai, and Beile Yuetuo came to the palace hall successively.
Well, Yue Tuo, who was originally Prince Heshuocheng, was demoted to Beizi for being domineering and disrespectful.
He was demoted several levels in a row.
Not long ago, Huang Taiji, who missed his former assistant, re-appointed him to Beile. was summoned.
"The reason why you have been summoned to discuss this matter is because there was news from the Ming Dynasty that because the money and goods were seized by King Lu of Shandong, Zhao Lie was angry and sent troops to capture the palace of King Lu, plundering hundreds of thousands of taels of silver and frightening King Lu.
After his death, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was furious and was organizing his army to attack Zhao Lie. " As soon as Huang Taiji mentioned the matter, there was a lot of discussion in the hall.
These princes, Baylor, had requested to attack the Ming Dynasty several times in the past years, but they were suppressed by the emperor.
Although they were extremely unhappy, they reluctantly accepted it.
After all, Huang Taiji's power is now unparalleled.
Dare to be disobedient.
But these princes, Baylor, are really unwilling to give in.
After all, they attacked the Ming Dynasty twice and plundered more than a million taels of silver and hundreds of thousands of coins.
In fact, these princes and their subordinates had more hidden silver coins.
In addition, the robbed Dingkou was converted into rent for land reclamation and farming in Liaodong, which was all money in vain.
How could this kind of temptation make the princes and princes of the banners with a background of plundering feel itchy and unbearable, but Long Live couldn't tell, these people really didn't dare to say anything, and now Huang Taiji's power has become established.
"Long live, I can finally enter the border to attack the Ming Dynasty this time."
Prince Heshuoyu Duduo stared.
He was the youngest and most utilitarian, and had a bad temper, so he asked the question first.
"Of course, now that the Ming Dynasty is in civil strife, it is time for our army to launch a crusade.
Zhao Lie's Polu army is quite powerful, but under the current situation, his troops cannot join forces with the Ming Dynasty official army to fight together.
That is, He reluctantly left Denglai and became an enemy in other areas of the Ming Dynasty.
Think about it, what city dares to open its door to accept him. " Huang Taiji laughed loudly after saying this.
He was quite happy at this time.
In fact, Huang Taiji was under great pressure.
He had been suppressing the princes and bannermen of the Eight Banners for a year.
During this year, these ignorant princes, together with the Jurchen nobles and ministers, kept forcing themselves to attack the Ming Dynasty for the sake of the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, it is the selfish interests of each banner, and Huang Taiji knows it.
It's not that Huang Taiji didn't want to conquer the Ming Dynasty, but several experiences of fighting against the Polu army made him understand that once he attacked the Ming Dynasty, it might be the time for a showdown with Zhao Lie's Polu army.
Huang Taiji had no doubt that the Qing army would be victorious.
After all, if they did not attack the fortified city, even if Zhao Lie's entire Polu army attacked, they would not be a match for the Qing cavalry.
However, the Qing army will suffer extremely heavy losses.
This is certain.
Then there is still the behemoth of the Ming Dynasty.
If the Qing army suffers heavy losses, it may not be able to conquer the Ming Dynasty for several years.
This will give the Ming emperor a chance to breathe.
This made Huang Taiji cruel, and he must train the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty to attack the Ming Dynasty again.
Therefore, Huang Taiji was under great pressure this year and did not allow the Qing army to detour south to attack the Ming Dynasty.
Because of this matter, even Hauge went to his father, the emperor, to make trouble.
He said that the Zhenglan Banner was extremely dissatisfied because his father did not allow Fa Ming.
They even turned their anger on him, the banner owner, and asked his father to allow Fa Ming.
So much.

Huang Taiji knew in his heart that those people must be secretly dissatisfied, but it was absolutely impossible for him to dare to go out of his way like Hauge said.
In recent years, he, as the emperor, had become more and more powerful.
He was no longer the one who had to negotiate with the three Baylors when big things happened. , the time has come when prestige and real power are insufficient.
Today is different from the past.
Hauge just took this opportunity to complain, forcing his father to make a clear decision as soon as possible, so that Hauge's Zhenglan Banner could also take the opportunity to plunder.
Huang Taiji scolded Hauge and then retreated.
His son was causing trouble for me and could not see things.
However, this incident showed that Huang Taiji was under great pressure.
There was no way around it.
Foreign wealth without looting was flowing through the Jurchens.
The things in the blood, not to mention the wealth and weakness of the Ming Dynasty, made them red-eyed, which was quite a bit blinding.
Over the past year, each of the eight Han banners has 8,000 soldiers, totaling more than 66,000 strong soldiers, who have been training continuously.
Now they are basically completed.
At this time, it was reported that the monarchs and ministers of the Ming Dynasty were at odds with each other and that they were about to fight with each other.
At this time, a good opportunity to attack the Ming Dynasty finally came.
The corners of Huang Taiji's mouth were slightly raised as he looked at the people talking about it below.
He felt relieved.
The burden of this year was gone, and Huang Taiji felt that he was in a much better mood.
"Long live my lord, why don't we wait until the Ming court attacks Zhao Lie before our army invades the Ming Dynasty."
Yue Tuo asked a very crucial question.
Everyone knows that the fisherman gets the advantage when the snipe and the clam fight.
Why not attack the Ming Dynasty at that time?
By then, the Ming army will fight with Zhao Lie's Polu army.
Both sides suffered losses.
Wouldn't it be easy for the Qing army to seize the border and plunder.
Huang Taiji admired Yue Tuo, "He is a veteran after all.
He thought carefully and saw the important points at once."
It's a pity for Huang Taiji.
After all, he is the son of Daishan.
He can be used, but he cannot be used as a confidant.
Huang Taiji looked at Hauge meaningfully.
Hauge's face was slightly red, knowing that his father was trying to wake him up.
Huang Taiji's chest tightness has become worse this year, his health is not as good as before, he thinks more about the crown prince, and Hauge's talents are insufficient.
Huang Taiji is afraid that he can't beat the young brothers below, such as Azig, Dorgon, Duduo, etc.
If the throne is passed to him, I am afraid it will harm him, but the other sons are underage, or even less effective, which is really a big worry.
"Prince Zheng, please talk to Yue Tobeile."
Huang Taiji named Jierhalang, Prince Heshuo Zheng.
Now it is Jierhalang who is responsible for exploring the affairs of the country.
He also reported this news.
Li Yongfang has died a long time ago, and now Li Yongfang's second son Li Shutai is assisting Jierharang in handling affairs of the Ming Dynasty.
"The emperor of the Ming Dynasty planned to dispatch one hundred thousand troops after the suppression of bandits in the Central Plains, and then mobilize one hundred thousand troops from Jizhen, Liao Town, Shanxi Province, and Nanjing Ji to attack Denglai together, wipe out Zhao Lie's Polu army in one fell swoop, and recover Denglai. " Ji'erharang talked eloquently in front of all the princes Baylor.
Today's Ji'erharang is the leader of the Xianglan Banner and one of the four princes of the Qing Dynasty.
His momentum is different from the past.
"But there is a problem with the strategy formulated by the cabinet ministers and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
If the rebellion is not eliminated within a few months, there will be no hope for the 100,000 troops in the Central Plains.

The other 100,000 troops alone will definitely not be Zhao Lie's opponent."
If Chongzhen were here, his eyes would fall in shock.
Jiannu knew all his strategies for attacking Zhao Lie, but he knew almost nothing about Jiannu.
It was really sad.
"This is something the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty came up with casually in the palace.
It really makes me laugh to death.
Whether it can succeed or not is irrelevant.
This old man has made it known everywhere.
This Ming Dynasty, Hahaha."
Duduo almost burst into tears laughing, he was such a frivolous person.
Dorgon gave him a tug.
Really, it was no different than before.
Now Huang Taiji was the emperor, let alone disobeying the emperor.
Huang Taiji also smiled and waved his hands.
He liked Duoduo's temperament very much.
He never hid anything.
Unlike his brother, this person was easy to deal with.
"Prince Zheng has already made it clear that there is still a question of whether the Ming Dynasty's crusade will succeed.
Even if it succeeds, I don't know when.
It may take more than half a year, maybe one or two years.
Of course, if you and others are willing to wait, I will It’s up to you to wait until they get into a fight before marching south.”
Huang Taiji, who was in a good mood, smiled and said that he also made a little joke.
Sure enough, everyone wanted to send troops immediately.
Who has the patience to wait for that ridiculous fight?
If you wait for a year and there is no fight within the Ming Dynasty, wouldn’t it be another year of waste?
It’s all money. .
"I dare to ask Prince Zheng whether there are a large number of cavalry troops from those soldiers under Zhao Lie."
Amid the calls for war, Abatai remained extremely calm.
Huang Taiji gave Abate a thumbs up, and he nodded slightly in approval.
Because Abate was a commoner, his status was not obvious because of his background.
In fact, he was a fierce general who had experienced hundreds of battles, which was a pity.
"Zhao Lie's army still has nearly 10,000 troops.
It is estimated that there are about 7,000 cavalry troops now.
The rest are infantry.
However, he also has Jeju and another place.
It is estimated that Zhao Lie's troops can have about 30,000 troops. , cavalry army, I estimate there will be less than 20,000."
Jirhalang told his guesses.
Here are the messages from Shidao and Denglai, as well as his guesses based on the letter.
"According to the combat strength of Zhao Lie's command, these 20,000 soldiers are indeed a formidable enemy.
I estimate that they can cause more than 20,000 casualties to our Qing Dynasty."
Ji Erhalang told his estimate, and no one objected.
After all, Zhao Lie's combat power was there, and it was indeed possible for 20,000 Polu troops to inflict equal casualties on the Qing army.
"Now I can see the sage of Lord Long Live.
For more than a year, Lord Long Live has been vigorously training the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty.
Today, the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty in the Qing Dynasty have reached great success.

It is best to let them fight each other.
This can preserve the strength of my Jurchen armored soldiers. ,Long live the Holy Ming."
Dorgon bowed deeply to Huang Taiji and complimented him.
Everyone else also complimented Huang Taiji, but Huang Taiji accepted it with a smile on his face, but in his heart he was very afraid of Dorgon, his younger brother.
He had force and strategy, and could lower his head at critical moments.
He was a character.
But the more Dorgon was like this, the more Huang Taiji was wary of him, because Hauge was by no means his opponent
