snort!
Dorgon snorted and turned his head to the side without answering Daishan's words.
Seeing this, Daishan did not continue to press, so as not to lose his reputation as a bully. He turned to Huang Taiji and said: "Until the threat of firearms from tiger thieves can be neutralized, my advice is to avoid their sharp edges."
This time, Dorgon didn't interrupt.
"Does anyone else have anything to say?" Huang Taiji glanced at everyone in the tent one by one, and finally landed on Dorgon, saying, "Old Fourteen, tell me what this battle has given you. Feelings.”
Daishan let Dorgon go, but Huang Taiji still turned the conversation to Dorgon.
"The tiger thieves have too many firearms. We suffered the disadvantage of not bringing a gun truck this time. If we were in Liaodong, no matter how many tiger thieves had firearms, we would have a way to deal with it." Dorgon believed that his defeat was entirely due to Because the Tiger Flag has the advantage of firearms.
The carriage he mentioned was a siege vehicle that could defend against artillery.
In Liaodong, they have always used carriages to resist the Ming army's bombardment, and they can effectively withstand the Ming army's bombardment.
Um.
Huang Taiji nodded in agreement and said: "Old Fourteen is right. The reason why the two white flags and the two blue flags suffered in front of the tiger thieves is not that our people are not strong, but that we suffer because there are no parents in our arms. This is called using our own shortcomings to attack the enemy's strong points. We are using our own shortcomings to attack the tiger thief's strong points, that's why we suffered such a big loss."
As he said that, he glanced at Daishan.
But the old god Daishan was sitting in his seat, as if he didn't notice Dao Huang Taiji's gaze.
Huang Taiji retracted his gaze and continued: "All the cannons we brought have been lost. You guys also want to talk about how to fight the next battle? Do you want to fight?"
Everyone present looked at Amin.
The four Baylors were discussing politics. Except for Huang Taiji who was in the position of Khan, Mang Gurtai stayed in Shengjing, Daishan was unwilling to continue fighting against the Tiger Flag, and Amin was the only one who had not yet expressed his opinion.
Amin felt the gazes of everyone, hesitated for a moment, and said: "I don't have any objection. If Dahan says to fight, then I will fight. If Dahan says not to fight, then I won't fight."
He was the weakest among the four Baylors at that time, and he had just suffered a defeat. He was afraid that he would say something wrong and make Huang Taiji dissatisfied. If he was fined and confiscated a few more, he would not have many people left in his blue flag.
When Huang Taiji saw that Amin was willing to give up and not hold on to her, he said, "There's no need to go see Amin. Tell me what you think."
Except for Daishan and Amin, the two great political lords, the most powerful people present were the banner masters and the minor banner masters, followed by the leaders and left leaders.
"The tiger thieves don't just have cannons, we can build a carriage. After building the carriage, we can deal with the tiger thieves." Dorgon said over Yue Tuo.
When he was young, he suffered such a big loss from Hu Ziqi, and his own brother also died in the hands of Hu Ziqi. Naturally, he was unwilling to give up like this, and wanted to take revenge in his heart.
Huang Taiji looked at Dorgon with a smile and said: "The attitude of the fourteenth old man is worthy of support. I, the warrior of Daikin, are not arrogant in victory and will not be discouraged in defeat. It doesn't matter if we lose one game. We will win back next time."
Dorgon smiled when he heard Huang Taiji's praise.
"Where are you, Yue Tuo? What do you think?" Huang Taiji's eyes moved away from Dorgon and landed on Yue Tuo, who was standing beside Dorgon.
Yue Tuo glanced at Daishan, then at Dorgon, and then said: "I don't think we need to stay here to contend with the Tiger Flag. The longer the delay, no matter the outcome, it will be against Daikin this time." There is no benefit in going to war.”
"Yue Tuo, could it be that you scared the tiger thief out of his courage!" Dorgon looked at Yue Tuo with a dissatisfied look on his face.
Huang Taiji was not dissatisfied because Yue Tuo and Dai Shan had the same opinion. Instead, he asked: "Yue Tuo, do you mean not to continue fighting the tiger thief here?"
"The Great Khan is famous." Yue Tuo praised him first, and then said, "The firearms of the tiger thieves are indeed sharp. We did not bring any defensive equipment this time. We relied entirely on our flesh and blood to withstand the tiger thieves' cannons. The tiger thieves It would be fine if the thieves had fewer guns, but the tiger thieves have all kinds of firearms emerging one after another, so a stalemate would be detrimental to us. Instead of taking a risk with the tiger thieves here, it is better to change the combat goal."
"I think your Yue Tuo is just scared. A tiger thief scared you out of your courage. Is it possible that because the tiger thief has many firearms, we just go back to Liaodong empty-handed?" Dorgon was very dissatisfied with Yue Tuo. The attitude shown by Tuo.
In his opinion, Yue Tuo was giving in to Nikan of the Ming Dynasty by doing this, and it was a black mark on Da Jin's face.
"Dorgon, that's enough." Yue Tuo said with a dark face.
Although he is a generation younger than Dorgon, he far surpasses Dorgon in terms of age and contribution to Daikin.
Now Dorgon made sarcastic remarks several times, which made him dissatisfied with Dorgon.
Huang Taiji, who was sitting in his seat, saw the two people becoming quarrelsome and said at the right time: "Okay, it's all for Daikin, so you two should stop arguing."
"Yes." Seeing Huang Taiji come forward, Yue Tuo took a step back.
Huang Taiji was very satisfied with Yue Tuo's respectful attitude toward him, and turned to Dorgon, who looked unconvinced, and said: "Old Fourteen, I know that you want to use a chariot to deal with the tiger bandits' firearms, but have you ever thought about it? , how long does it take to build a carriage? How much food and grass does the army need to station here every day? Have you calculated these?"
Dorgon opened his mouth slightly for a few times, and finally chose to close it tightly.
He really only thought about how to defeat the soldiers and horses with the Tiger Flag in front of him, and did not think about other things.
Huang Taiji saw that Dorgon had relented and continued: "Yue Tuo is also worried about the problem of food and grass in the army. Old Fourteen, don't think it's against you. I know that you want to avenge Azig. I am here with you." Everyone in the country wants to avenge Azig, but they can’t only have revenge in their hearts and not think about anything else. Our Dajin is not like the Ming Dynasty. It doesn’t matter even if we lose the entire Liaodong, but as long as our Dajin loses one game, it will be broken. , it is very likely that the current situation in Liaodong cannot be maintained."
His lecture to Dorgon also made others present understand what Huang Taiji meant.
Obviously Huang Taiji also wanted to withdraw his troops, instead of staying here and stalemate with the tiger-character flag troops guarding here.
With Huang Taiji's attitude, the subordinate leaders and the Baylors of the Laoai family who did not hold much real power all expressed their support for the retreat.
Although Dorgon calmed down and was unwilling to retreat like this, he also knew that retreating was the right decision. Instead, he stayed here to continue the stalemate with the Tiger Flag, which might lead to the loss of Daijin's troops. in a meadow.
