Chapter 4: Congratulations from all sides (three)

In a blink of an eye, the last few days of the fourth year of Chongzhen quietly slipped away from the gap in his fingers. The traditional Han festival - the Spring Festival is here.

Chinese people attach great importance to tradition, especially the Spring Festival that adults and children all look forward to. Although they have just suffered a snow disaster, the festive atmosphere in the capital has not diminished, and there is a joyful and peaceful atmosphere everywhere. However, the atmosphere this year is very strong, especially real, and it is getting better and better every year.

Naturally, there were lights and decorations in the palace. The whole people were mobilized, and there were busy figures everywhere. Every eunuch or palace maid seemed to have a satisfied smile on her face. They were busy happily, washing and contributing their enthusiasm and efforts.

Just as the Ming Dynasty, from the monarchs and ministers to the people were happily preparing for a peaceful and warm Spring Festival, several major forces in the north of the Ming Dynasty seemed to be surging undercurrents, and there was a momentum of breaking out.

When the photo learned that his sister Taisong would go back to Mongolia to visit her relatives after the Spring Festival, he naturally refused to leave and said that he would go back with his sister no matter what. In fact, he was still a little worried about Sony's incident. If his brother didn't believe it, his sister would help him prove it. Now that his sister has different identities, even his brother would not dare to do anything to his sister. Moreover, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty would also send troops to escort along the way, which added a layer of protective umbrella. Anyway, it would be nothing to go back for a few days late, and it just happened to enjoy a few more days in the Southern Dynasty Flower World!

Lin Danhan naturally would not hand over the imperial seal of the Yuan court easily. Zhu Yinglong had already expected that if he had bet such a big bet, if he had not tasted any sweetness, for a gambler, he would not have easily put all the treasures on no matter what.

Therefore, Zhu Yinglong would have to work hard to get the imperial seal of Fang Yuanting. Of course, the rotten stone was of great significance to Lin Dan and Huang Taiji, and it had no meaning to him at all. Even if Lin Dan gave him the imperial seal, he might not necessarily surrender to the Ming Dynasty. However, if this thing really came from Lin Dan to his own hands, once the news was revealed, Lin Dan Khan would be in big trouble. He would be betrayal of his relatives at any time. This was too dangerous and Lin Dan dared not take it casually.

However, the message from the Liquor Picture was that his emperor brother-in-law was not interested in money. The only thing he was interested in was the war horse. Only he was interested in the imperial seal in his hand was interesting. This was his last bargaining chip. Once handed over, it would be like binding himself and the Ming Dynasty, and he would become a sinner in Mongolia. It would be strange if his subordinates did not fall apart. When he said this to Liquor Picture, he was just a bait that he threw when he was absolutely necessary or had no agreement. In fact, he had never thought of sending the imperial seal.

Among the eight Han's ears of Lin Danhan, the third Han'er was most favored by him, namely Su Tai. Su Tai was not only beautiful, but also gave birth to Lin Danhan's only son, Ezhe, Ezhe, and Ezhe even married the princess of the Ming Dynasty. Su Tai's status has risen even more. If he had not been pregnant with the top-ranked Canon, otherwise Su Tai would have already suppressed his power.

Su Tai was born in the Yehe tribe. The Yehe tribe was the most powerful branch of the Jurchens in the three Jurchens in China. They had always been entangled with the Jianzhou Jurchens. When they were good, they kept marrying each other. When they were bad, they wanted to cure the other party to die. Until Nurhaci unified the Jurchen tribes, and the Yehe tribe was also incorporated into the Later Jin Dynasty. Huang Taiji's mother was Menggu's sister of Yehe tribe, and Jiergalang's great concubine was Su Tai's sister. The predecessor of the Yehe tribe belonged to Tumot of Mongolia. Before his death, Buyanggu, the leader of the Yehe tribe, swore to heaven: "Even if I, Yehe, can only destroy the Jianzhou Jurchens." Therefore, it is really difficult to settle the confusion between Yehe and the Aisin Jurgen family.

Lin Danhan loved Su Tai the most, so he gave her many important secrets and items to control, and naturally the Jade Seal of the Kingdom was included. The Su Tai people were smart and often acted as think tanks.

As a mother, Su Tai naturally hoped that his son could inherit the Khan throne, but Lin Dankhan was still in full swing after all. Now he was pregnant without paying attention. If he gave birth to a girl, it would be different if he gave birth to a male child. As a grandmother, he would definitely suppress himself. Especially behind the Korqin Mongolia Borjigit clan was powerful. Not only did he have marriages with the Mongolian tribes, but he was also an unbreakable alliance with the Later Jin Aisin Gioro. Ye He was a defeated general. Although he was both Jurchen, he had too few chips in his hands, so the Ming Dynasty became her only choice, and she had no choice, because her son had already married the princess of the Ming Dynasty, and she had already made the mark of "King Ming".

The Eight Great Han Erduo is divided into three major strengths. One side is naturally led by Namu Zhong, the other side is led by Su Tai, and the other side remains neutral and does not help each other.

Of course, as long as Lin Dan is still here for one day, neither Namuzhong nor Su Tai dares to show too much "propriate to Ming" or "propriate to Jin". Of course, Su Tai has obvious advantages, that is, the Ming Dynasty is now an ally with Chahar Mongolia, and she can maintain a good relationship with the Ming envoys and officials in legitimately. Namuzhong is also OK, but if she wants to obtain the support of the Ming Dynasty, it seems a bit congenital deficient and cannot compare with Su Tai's "family". Therefore, if Namuzhong wants to gain an advantage, he must need the support of his mother's family, but his mother's family is from the Later Jin, and Houjin and Chahar have a deep hatred. Therefore, although Namuzhong is pregnant with a dragon seed, he is still vaguely suppressed by Su Tai.

Lin Danhan was too lazy to care about the affairs between these women. As long as they didn’t betray themselves or Chahar Mongolia, they could fight no matter how they fought, and everything was up to their strength!

The Mongols pursued the concept of "the strong are supreme". Whoever can laugh at the end is the winner? Long-term victory will not choose a weak person to be the leader of the Mongols.

The wind was getting louder and tighter on the grassland, and gradually a shocking news spread quickly on the grassland. Huang Taiji, the Tiancong Khan of the Golden Horde, was about to go to war with Lindan Khan of Chahar Mongolia.

For a moment, the small Mongolian tribe began to panic. The two tigers fought each other and would definitely be a complete battle. At that time, the disaster would be the small tribes that were powerless and powerless to survive in the cracks of the powerful forces.

For a moment, the wind and cranes were heard on the grassland. Any movement could cause a small local shock, like a firecracker with a twist. I don’t know when the twist will light up, and then explode with a "bang"!

Of course, some people secretly contributed to the fire. Needless to say, it is naturally the Ming Dynasty who ordered people to cause trouble on the grassland.

Lin Dan knew and Huang Taiji knew, but no one had any evidence and could not find any evidence.

The Ming Dynasty wanted to see both Huang Taiji and Lin Dan suffered both losses, but they did not want to see one of them losing power. What Huang Taiji wanted was to destroy Lin Dankhan and conquer Mongolia in the south of the desert. At the same time, he knew that the Ming court would not watch him destroy Lin Dankhan and conquer Mongolia in the south of the desert. Lin Dankhan. He wanted to unify Mongolia in the south of the desert. First of all, the Ming Dynasty could hold back the Later Jin. When he unified Mongolia in the south of the desert, he would sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight, and see that the Ming Dynasty and the Later Jin were both injured, and then he would benefit.

The three parties have very good abacus. None of them is a fuel-efficient lamp, but they have good ideas. The key is to rely on their strength. Among the three parties, the Ming Dynasty is the strongest, because there are many soldiers and wide generals, but the defects are also very large. There are too few cavalry and the weakest field battles. The second is the Later Jin Dynasty. The Eight Banners Iron Cavalry is extremely sharp, but although the siege is not weak, there is no way to meet the Ming army that is good at defending. The weakest one is Chahar Mongolia. Needless to say, there is almost no siege equipment, but the 100,000 Mongolian Iron Cavalry is quite powerful. Especially after obtaining a lot of firearms, it is much more strengthened on defense. It is not easy for the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry to break through the defense line of Chahar Mongolia in one fell swoop.

Since the battlefield is set on the grassland, the Ming Dynasty is destined to be a foil, but a qualified foil is not so easy to be. Not only should one be more effective but also a foil.

Huang Taiji was not only brave, but also liked to use dangers. It was just that after the last time he personally conquered North Korea, captured Seoul, and instigated Mao Wenlong of Dongjiang, he suddenly led his army to return secretly, hoping to take advantage of the fact that the Liaodong dragons had no leader to raid Jinzhou. Fortunately, General Man Gui returned seriously injured, which made him lose all his efforts.

There was another heavy snow in Shengjing. The weather was extremely cold. I was afraid that it would be more than 20 degrees below zero. There was no sign on the street. The sky was gloomy, and the north wind was yelling, and the biting cold wind blew the new capital.

The flames of dozens of red candles, as thick as the arms of the baby in the Golden Horde, the Imperial Palace, and the Chongzheng Hall, jumped, making a slight "crackling" burning sound.

A huge white tiger fur was covered with a golden dragon chaise in the middle of the head of the hall. The middle-aged man with a red face and a handsome appearance was sitting on the top. He wore a golden crown and a yellow jacket and looked at the two rows of ministers standing below with a serious face. One row of military generals was led by Daishan, behind him were Amin, Mangguertai, Haoge, Dorgon and others, and the other row was civil officials, led by Xifu, Fan Wencheng and others.

The atmosphere in the hall was a little depressing.

"Why don't you talk? It's so cold that I'm summoning you to come to see you folded there like wooden stakes." Huang Taiji stood up and glanced at the ministers and brothers in the hall. (Correct Note: From the first year of Tianming, that is, in 1616 AD, Nurhaci established the Golden Horde and called me in yellow clothes, but he did not ascend the throne and emperor, so he called himself me, but his ministers had to call him the Great Khanate)

"Da Khan, Nanming regards my Dajin as a major concern. This time the rumor must be caused by the despicable Nan people!" Dai Shan looked angry and was the first to stand up.

Huang Taiji knew about this. In order to conquer Chahar Mongolia next year, he had ordered secret preparations for three months.

It is impossible to give up the war that has been decided to start because of a rumor. This is the principle that Huang Taiji insists on.

"Great Khan, I think this may be a trick of the Southern Ming Dynasty, and the purpose is to make us give up attacking Chahar Mongolia." Dorgon said in a list.

Huang Taiji nodded after hearing this. Dorgon showed increasingly a kind of talent as a general. This was what he was happy and worried about. After all, his position of khan originally belonged to Dorgon, and said, "What the fourteenth brother said makes some sense, but the current emperor of the Southern Ming Dynasty is different, so it is probably not so easy to guess."

"Don't worry, the Khans have been quite peaceful in the country in recent years and the emperor has been working hard to manage, but natural disasters have continued and national strength has been wasted for more than ten years. Even if we cultivate and maintain health with the people, it will take at least a few years or even worse to recover. However, our Dajin is different. Now our national strength is booming, with many soldiers and generals. The Nanmen is weak in physique and has congenital defects. What are the fears of my Dajin?" Daishan's eldest son Yue Tuo said shamelessly.

"Although what Yue Tuo said is not unreasonable. Although my population of Dajin is one million, there are more than ten million people in the southern world? How can this be compared?" Mangguertai retorted.

"Why should the fifth uncle have to increase the ambition of the Southern people and destroy the might of our Jin people?" Yue asked sarcastically.

"Yue Tuo, you..." Mangguertai was anxious, and his health was getting worse and worse. He came to discuss with illness, and he couldn't help but cough violently.

"Khan, Nanming and Chahar Mongolia have a marriage relationship. I heard that the Emperor of Nanming is pretty good to that Princess Taisong. If they really reach an agreement this time, I am worried that this will be extremely unfavorable to our Dajin!" Grand Secretary Xifu hurriedly stood up and said, "Advertisement."

"Mr. Xifu is too worried. Although Nanming married Chahar Mongolia, how can I compare to my Dajin? I think that Dajin and Mongolia have many marriages with Mongolian tribes. Among the concubines of Dahan, most of the daughters of the Mongolian tribes are the daughters of the chiefs of the Mongolian tribes. Dajin and Mongolia were originally a family. Nanming married a princess and wanted to control Mongolia. It would be too vain!" Amin sneered.

"Father Khan, the news from the Investigation and Inquiry Department said that Princess Taisong, who was named Concubine Kang, who was appointed by the Emperor of Southern Ming, will return to Chahar Mongolia to visit relatives after the New Year. There are many entourages and there may be military escorts." Haoge is in charge of the Ministry of Revenue, and at the same time, Huang Taiji also handed over the most confidential spy organization of Dajin to him, which is the Investigation and Inquiry Department.
