"Well, not bad, not bad."
After entering the palace, Huang Taiji stepped on the corpses and nodded repeatedly while looking inside the palace.
"Father, there is one thing I didn't say. The cotton clothes this time were not given to us by Hu Yunqing. Instead, he put forward three conditions."
Fulin, who was supporting his father, suddenly remembered something and quickly said to his father next to him.
"Three conditions? What is this Hu Yunqing going to do?"
The main reason why Fulin was sent to Shanhaiguan this time was to allow Hu Yunqing to avoid speaking out of respect for the sake of master and apprentice. Unexpectedly, the other party still refused to let him go.
"These three conditions are..., the situation was urgent at the time, and the battlefield in Shengjing was constantly changing, so I agreed to them all."
Fulin then told the situation exactly as it was at that time.
"Well, these conditions are still acceptable. Now that we have captured Shengjing, you can just take someone to the warehouse to get it later."
Huang Taiji was still very satisfied with Fulin's decision. These were all acceptable.
"Yes, who among us will go to Shanhaiguan to trade? They want to make a fortune from it, and we can't watch the money disappear."
After the two entered the main hall, his father sat on the dragon chair. Fulin also learned all about Hu Yunqing's stingy and money-loving skills.
"Well, you can arrange this yourself, and then you can hand over 80% of the money you earn!"
After returning to the Shengjing Palace, Huang Taiji didn't have that much energy to take care of these messy things. He just wanted to take a good rest for two years, and at the last moment, he could appoint Fulin as the next one.
Huang Taiji had already arranged everything.
"As you command!"
In the past few days, rewards for merit have also begun in Shengjing City, and those who have made merit in this battle have received generous rewards.
The commander of Zhengbai Banner remains Duolan, the commander of Zhenghuang Banner is Fulin, the commander of Zhenglan Banner is Aobai, and the commander of Zhenghong Banner is the general who opened the city gate and surrendered.
After Daishan died like this, the generals under his command were unable to make any big waves, and soon surrendered to Fulin. Fulin also used a combination of kindness and power, and became more and more popular among the slaves.
The current four flags, as long as Fulin gives an order, all will respond, which is even better than the time of Huang Taiji.
"Marshal, the war on Jiannu's side is over."
At this time, all the generals were gathered in the Shanhaiguan camp, and Hu Yunqing was also sitting aside.
"Tell me, who won in the end?"
They have been waiting for the result over there. It would be best if both sides suffered losses.
"Huang Taiji captured Shengjing very easily, and Daishan's head was already hanging on the city gate."
The spy had been hiding near Shengjing and had a rough understanding of everything before returning to Shanhaiguan to report.
"Impossible! Even though Daishan is a waste, the city of Shengjing cannot be conquered by attacking. Moreover, Daishan has more than ten cannons. How could Huang Taiji be so easy!"
After listening to the spies' report, everyone had known about Daishan's strength before. He could rely on the city to resist, and he would never die if the city was destroyed so quickly. Wang Hu was the first to raise his doubts.
The other generals also nodded one after another, agreeing with what Wang Hu said.
Hearing this result, Hu Yunqing was not too shocked.
"According to our inquiries, it was a city guard general from Zhenghongqi who opened the south gate of Shengjing to welcome Huang Taiji's army as they entered the city."
The spies also looked innocent. This was what they had worked hard and braved the cold to find out. They finally returned to Shanhaiguan and reported that no one believed it, which made them, the spies, feel a little sad.
"What they said is not wrong. You go down and rest."
Indeed, this news was a bit shocking, but after Hu Yunqing knew the result, he didn't care so much. He came to the spy, adjusted the other's helmet and said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
When no one believed in them, Hu Yunqing stood up alone and chose to believe, which moved them very much.
"That's good for us, too."
Seeing everyone drooping their heads, Hu Yunqing clapped his hands and said to everyone.
"What's the good thing? Huang Taiji is much harder to deal with than Daishan!"
After Wang Bao listened to Hu Yunqing's words with ease, he sat aside and muttered quietly.
Although they were whispering, no one in the big tent spoke, and everyone looked at Wang Bao.
"What? Am I right? If we are kind to the previous generation, our Ming Dynasty will greatly increase the possibility of victory!"
Seeing everyone looking at him, Wang Bao bravely spoke to everyone.
"Yes, Wang Bao is right, but you forgot one thing!"
Hu Yunqing also agreed with Wang Bao, looked around randomly and said.
"Forgot? Do you still want the prince to make it clear?"
Yuan Chonghuan knew that Hu Yunqing would not target without purpose, and he must have some idea, otherwise he would never say this, so he quickly asked him.
"You forget that you are soldiers. Tens of millions of people behind you use their hard-earned money to support you. You are still here to choose your opponents. Don't you know that when Huang Taiji comes, you won't fight? "
These words have been pressing in Hu Yunqing's heart, and he has always wanted to say them out, but he never had the chance to say them all.
Why did Nurhaci enter the pass, put brand-new firearms in the warehouse, all the soldiers were timid... and many other factors were the reasons for the demise of the Ming Dynasty.
"Your Majesty taught you a lesson!"
After listening to Hu Yunqing's words, Wang Bao also felt that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly stood up and said with fists in his hands.
"It's okay, what you said is the truth, but we want not only people who can tell the truth, but people who can actually do practical things."
Wang Bao and Hu Yunqing also admired him very much. If he had anything to say, he would say it without hiding it and he was loyal to the Ming Dynasty.
"What's next for us?"
"Soon, the mutual trade between Jiannu and Shanhaiguan will be opened. You should take advantage of the truce to start training new soldiers, strengthen the city defense of Shanhaiguan, and prepare for the subsequent war."
Hu Yunqing knew very well that it would be impossible for the Ming Dynasty to defeat Jiannu in two years.
But now that he has come here and seen the soldiers guarding the city, he is unwilling to give up and vows to protect his hometown to the death.
Moreover, the next battle between Jiannu and Ming Dynasty will be a decisive battle between the two parties, and it is impossible for Ming Dynasty to have any breathing space.
"As you command!"
After listening to Hu Yunqing's arrangements, everyone left the Chinese army tent one after another and began to go down to prepare.
"I wanted to say something about them before, but I didn't dare to say it too harshly. Border is not like other places. Everyone here has a stone weighing on their heart. You can only lift the stone by yourself. Others can't help."
