"The existence of the Jianzhou Guard is to create new rifts between Nurhaci and Shuerhaqi?" Zhu Yijun pondered: "You mean that both of them are much stronger than the Jianzhou Guard, so they will He is eyeing the Jianzhou Guard, will this create a situation where two tigers are competing for food?"
"Yes, it is two tigers competing for food." Gao Pingshi nodded: "But this situation of two tigers competing for food still requires my great Mingluo to use my cleverness to ensure that nothing goes wrong."
"How clever?" Zhu Yijun asked with raised eyebrows.
Gao pragmatically said: "Based on the current strength of the two brothers, once Shuerhaqi separates, his strength will still be slightly inferior to Nurhaci. If he wants to truly stand shoulder to shoulder with Nurhachi, he will need to work harder, and Jianzhou Wei Baoshi and others, who were both from Ningguta but were the weakest, were undoubtedly his best targets.
There is a premise here, that is, the Ming Dynasty has a neutral attitude towards the internal attacks of the Jurchens, that is, it is indifferent, so that he dares to take action. But this may lead to other troubles, for example, they can also expand in other directions. "
Zhu Yijun thought for a while, frowned and said, "What directions do you mean by other directions?"
Gao pragmatically said: "It depends on how the emperor wants to delineate the jurisdiction of the left and right guards in Jianzhou, and who of the two brothers is the left guard and who is the right guard."
Zhu Yijun waved to Gao Jianshi and said, "Let's look at the Kan map and discuss it in detail." After saying that, he took Gao Jianshi to the other side, put aside the Kan map of Liaodong, and pointed to the outline of Jianzhou, Su Ke, and the Suhu River. Location, he said: "Is this Jianzhou?"
"Yes." Gao Pragmatic nodded, then pointed to several places inside and introduced each one: "This is Hetuala, to the southwest is Crow Falcon Pass, and to the northwest is Fushun Pass. From Hetuala to Fushun Pass The few places in the middle are Maldun Village, Gule Village, Jiefan Village and Sarhu Village."
Zhu Yijun said "hmm" and said: "The place is not big. I didn't expect that there were nearly ten thousand soldiers and horses." Then he asked: "There are many territories in the north and east. Why are there only so many bits and pieces on the map? Scattered annotations?”
Gao pragmatically said: "Ninggu Pagoda and Suksuhu River Department are its core areas. To the north is the Zhechen Department that Nurhachi captured last year. In this department, only Toudaolizi Village is somewhat decent, and the rest are not worth mentioning. Therefore it has not been marked.”
"Tudaolizi? What the hell is this name?" Zhu Yijun rolled his eyes, pointed to the east side of "Tudaolizi" and asked: "There are two places marked here, but there are no names. where?"
"This Jiahe Village and Tuomuhe Village are two small villages."
Zhu Yijun shook his head and said: "This is not possible. I think these places are too close." Then he looked at the right side of the map, that is, the east, and seemed to have an idea. "Since Shuerhaqi has learned well, , if Nurhaci doesn’t learn well, then let Shuerhaqi be closer to Fushun Pass and be the right guard of Jianzhou, that is, Jianzhou in the west; Nurhaci should be farther away from the border wall, and be the left guard of Jianzhou, that is, Jianzhou in the east.”
This idea is highly pragmatic and he agrees with it. To be precise, it is similar to his own previous thoughts. "Does the emperor have any clear instructions on the specific demarcation of the land?" Gao pragmatically asked.
Zhu Yijun looked at the map and sneered: "Leave Hetuala to Nurhaci, but Hetuala is the extreme western boundary of Jianzhou Zuowei. Isn't the west of his city close to the river? This river is the limit. As for Hebei, it is The river is the boundary to the west of Jiahe Village."
Gao Pragmatic took a look and thought to himself: Good guy, most of the essence of Ningguta-Sukesuhu River Department has nothing to do with Nurhaci.
However, Gao Pragmatic looked at it again and frowned: "But if this is the case, where will Baoshi go? According to this division, the Zhangjia Village where he lives and the Nimalan Village of his other brother will be placed under the jurisdiction of Nurhachi .”
Zhu Yijun waved his hand and said: "Let him go to Maldun Village. Looking at the markings on the map, this is a large village and the area under its jurisdiction is not small. It is enough to arrange for the five brothers."
Gao Pangshi was still calculating in his mind, and Zhu Yijun continued: "As for Shuerhaqi, since he is willing to learn well, I will not treat him badly. I will give him all the Gule Village, Jiefan Village and Sarhu Village."
Gao pragmatic looked at the map and said nothing for a long time. Zhu Yijun asked doubtfully: "What's wrong? Is there any problem with dividing it like this?"
"There is no problem for the time being." Although Gao Pragmatic said this, his brows kept frowning. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but said: "The emperor's division, considering the current situation, is of great concern to Shuerhaqi. , the three places given are all Dazhai, and they are also the core of the area ruled by Wang Gao in the past. They are also very generous to Baoshi and others, Mardun is definitely better than Zhang Jia and Nima Lan."
When he said this, he shook his head and said: "But I always have a worry. If it is divided like this, maybe Nurhachi will pretend to compete with Shuerhaqi for Mardun, while at the same time he will expand eastward with all his strength, and even continue to take advantage of Dong E's tribe. "
Zhu Yijun looked at the map of Kanyu, shook his head and said: "If he dares to attack the Dong'e tribe, he is not afraid that Ming Dynasty will intervene again? As for the eastward expansion, I don't think there are three tribes over there: the Yalu River, Neyin, and Zhusheli. These three The tribes have always advanced and retreated together. Even if one of them cannot defeat Nurhachi, why can't three of them join forces to resist? As long as he dares not invade Dong'e again, let him go east and hit the wall."
Gao pragmatic always felt a little unsafe, but he couldn't think of how to convince the emperor. Unexpectedly, Zhu Yijun seemed to see his doubts and said with a smile: "I remember you told me last time, Yalu River, Neyin, Zhusheli The third section of the Changbai Mountains is the main area where Yehema's team gathers troops, isn't it?"
Gao Pingshi's heart moved, and then he realized that Zhu Yijun did not simply think that Nurhachi could not defeat the three coalition forces in Changbai Mountain. His true intention was that once Nurhaci attacked the three coalition forces in Changbai Mountain, it would inevitably trigger the intervention of Ye He's tribe - cutting off people and money. For example, if you kill your parents, Ye He is mainly a second-tier dealer, supplemented by his own production. If you take away his source of ginseng, why can't he come to fight you?
From this, Gao Pragmatic suddenly thought that it seemed that the trigger for the nine coalition forces to conquer the state in the original history was that Nurhaci suddenly annexed the Yalu River Department in a short and quick war.
It was the 19th year of Wanli. Nurhaci led the Jianzhou army to suddenly send troops and annexed the Yalu River section of Changbai Mountain with lightning speed. Nurhachi's strength further grew.
After learning about the incident, Belnarinbulu of Yehedong City sent a message to Nurhachi, offering to share the spoils and land.
In fact, there was a long distance between Ye He and the Yalu River Department. Ye He's cavalry team had to go around Huifa, Wangjia, Neyin and other tribes to go to the Yalu River Department, so it was impossible to truly rule an enclave. But this move was not Nalinbulu's whim. His purpose was to test Nurhaci. The implication was that Nurhaci ensured that the ginseng produced in the Yalu River Department could still be purchased by the Ye He Department.
However, Nurhachi originally wanted to control the ginseng producing area and competed with Ye Hebeiguan for trade dominance. How could he give in? So he rejected Nalinbulu without saying a word.
Since Nurhachi won't give face, Nalinbulu will certainly not be able to maintain his interests through negotiation. Soon, Nalinbulu led Ye He's army to plunder Dongzhai in the east of Jianzhou. But Nalinbulu didn't think it was enough, and spread the news about Nurhachi's annexation of the Yalu River tribe in Changbai Mountain. This aroused the fear of other Jurchen tribes in Liaodong, and they all feared that they would become the next target of Nurhachi's annexation.
For common interests, common goals, and common enemies, these tribes rarely come together and prepare to eliminate Nurhachi, this terrible opponent.
In June of the 21st year of Wanli, four powerful Hercynian Jurchen chiefs, Yehe, Hada, Ula, and Huifa, led a huge coalition of four armies toward Nurhaci's stronghold Hubucha, preparing to give Nurhaci a good look.
This is really rare for Nurhaci. He has always been the only one to rob others, but he didn't expect that someone would dare to rob him, and they would organize a robbery group to rob him openly.
Nurhaci immediately led the army to leave Foala City without stopping (his seat of government at this moment in original history was Foala) and rushed to Hubucha.
As a result, a funny thing happened. Perhaps due to the shadow of the famous tree, the coalition forces suddenly dispersed when they heard that Nurhachi had come to support them. They didn't know what was going on internally. What was originally a huge and murderous battle turned into an inexplicable farce, and it was a farce with a one-sided plot!
And there was another unlucky guy among them, Hadabele Menggebulu. He was very unlucky. When he fled near Furjiaqi Village, he happened to meet Nurhachi. After losing the lives of many soldiers and his own mount, he fled back to Hada in embarrassment on the horse of his subordinates.
Afterwards, when all the ministries were summed up, they remembered that the biggest problem in this coalition battle was that there was no leader. The coalition forces were called coalition forces, but in fact they were in charge of their own affairs from beginning to end. When they heard that Nurhachi was coming, they all retreated, planning to let others take over first. , the result turned out to be a rout.
Since it was a "non-war crime", the four powerful Jurchen chiefs in Haixi did not give up because of this failure. Instead, they believed that Nurhachi had become extremely powerful, especially because his prestige of being able to fight and dare to fight was almost at its peak. If now If he is not eliminated, everyone in other Jurchen tribes will be in danger.
So in September, the four tribes of Yehe, Hada, Wula, and Huifa in Haixi united with the three tribes of Horqin, Xibo, and Gualcha in Mongolia, and the two tribes of Zhusheli and Nayin in Changbai Mountain to push Beilebuzhai, the two cities east and west of Yehe. , Nalinbulu as the leader, formed a huge coalition of more than 30,000 people, ready to wipe out Nurhachi's power in one fell swoop.
After learning the news, Nurhachi's deputy, Fujin Gundai, was anxious, but Nurhaci acted like a normal person, eating and sleeping when he should. On the one hand, he ordered people to prepare rolling logs, thunder stones, etc., and to build fortifications; on the other hand, he ordered Burikan to go to investigate the enemy's situation, and strive to know ourselves and the enemy.
Burikan did not disappoint Nurhaci, he captured a Yehe soldier alive. This Ye He soldier obviously had no moral integrity. He explained clearly and clearly what path he was in, who was the boss, how many younger brothers the boss had, and where he planned to kill people.
While Nurhaci was busy, the nine coalition forces were not idle either. They were rushing to attack the cities of Zhaqa and Heizig. Since ancient times, in any siege battle, if the enemy cannot be lured out of the city, the only way is to attack by force!
The Nine Allied Forces were not the elite of the Ming Dynasty. They obviously did not have high-precision products such as artillery available, so they shot arrows, threw stones, and occasionally used fire attacks. The cities of Zhaqa and Hezig were almost submerged in a pile of bows, arrows and stones.
However, the Jianzhou army could not hold on and resisted tenaciously. They wanted to enter the city unless they stepped over our corpses. No matter what siege methods the nine coalition forces used, they could not get into the city. For the nine coalition forces, the city that cannot be conquered today may not be conquered tomorrow. There is no way. Ye He, the main force of the nine coalition forces, has Mongolian descent. He is good at cavalry. The siege is really unreliable. As for the more than 10,000 Horqin "professional cavalry", they are basically all in the Changbai Mountains. It's a decoration.
Then don’t waste your time and have fun somewhere else. The nine coalition forces began to advance towards Gule Mountain - this move was a lot smarter, at least it could be regarded as "attacking it must save it", because the core essence of the Sukesu River Department such as Jiefan Village and Gule Village were all there. Direction of Gule Mountain.
As mentioned before, there were only a few long and narrow river valleys to go to fight Jianzhou, so the Jianzhou army set up many obstacles along the way. The nine-unit coalition army, mainly cavalry, encountered Ma Chengxun-style embarrassment. Not only was it difficult to march, but also The line was extremely long.
Faced with such a powerful enemy from the nine coalition forces, Nurhachi had no intention of backing down and personally led more than 10,000 troops to attack: Nurhaci ordered Er Yidu to lead more than 100 people to challenge the nine coalition forces.
What? More than a hundred people? With just this few people, how dare you show off in front of more than 30,000 people?
In fact, it is not the case. It is similar to the situation when Ma Chengxun was ambushed before. In fact, the key is that it is difficult to deploy a large army in a narrow river valley. Nurhachi's original intention of letting Er Yidu come forward was to give the opponent a disfavour first, and then wait for the morale of the army to rise slowly. Contest.
However, at this time, the completely opposite situation occurred in the battle where Ma Chengxun was ambushed: when Beilebu Village in Yehexi City saw that the other party dared to underestimate the nine coalition forces, he immediately became furious and personally led his troops to charge forward.
However, not far after Bu Zhai rushed out, his mount suddenly stepped on a rolling log, and he fell down with both the man and the horse off. The Jianzhou soldiers were overjoyed when they saw this, and went to attack with great excitement. One of the Jianzhou soldiers named Wu Tan was the fastest. He rushed forward and raised his knife, and his body and head were separated from the majestic Xicheng Beilebu Village.
When Nalinbulu saw that his brother Bu Zhai died in battle, and died in such a grievous manner, he couldn't take a breath and fainted from anger. This frightened Ye He's soldiers. They dragged Bu Zhai's body back with all their hands, rescued Nalin Bulu and fled in embarrassment. They were afraid that if they slowed down, they would have to conquer.
The small boat of friendship can capsize at every turn; the giant ship of alliance can sink at every turn. When the other Jurchens, Beile and Mongolian Taiji, saw that Ye He, the main force of the army, had run away, they thought to themselves, what the hell? One by one, they rolled and crawled away, and the nine-part coalition's massive campaign to conquer Jianzhou came to an end.
Accidents on the battlefield sometimes have profound consequences. According to various historical records, Nurhachi was very afraid of Yehe's cavalry. In fact, Nurhachi left Ye He with him in the end because of this. But who knew that such a magical defeat would be caused by the war horse in Buzhai stepping on a rolling stone?
Later, Ye He was destroyed, and the Eight Banners cavalry established by Nurhachi based on Ye He's cavalry could not even withstand Mongolia's Lin Dan Khan. Therefore, looking back at the defeat of the nine coalition forces, it seems that God did not bless Ye He - of course, really. Well, battlefield location is also a big issue.
In short, for Ye He, although the three parts of the Changbai Mountains are not native, their importance is no less than that of the native land. Zhu Yijun made such an arrangement just after hearing what Gao Pragmatic said about the Jurchen ginseng trade, which shows that he is indeed mature.
But in this way, Gao Pragmatic is always worried that history will take the same path again.
It seems that he still has to intervene secretly to prevent Ye He from doing something stupid again.
