"puff……"
Before Huang Taiji finished his roar, a mouthful of blood spurted out. His body stiffened for a moment, and then he suddenly fell down on the throne.
"Sweat!"
"King Khan!"
"Pass on the royal doctor!"
…
The sudden change caused Daishan, Mang Gurtai, Azige and others in the Chongzheng Hall to stand up instantly and rush to the platform with anxious expressions on their faces.
Huang Taiji, who was half lying on the throne, had a face as golden as paper, his eyes were closed tightly, and his face was full of ferocious expressions.
His hands were clenched tightly, causing veins to pop.
"Sweat!"
Several imperial doctors entered the back of Chongzheng Hall, checked it out, and said: "It's just anger attacking the heart, just give it a massage and it will be fine!"
"Angry and attacking your heart?"
Everyone looked at each other with curiosity in their eyes, as to what they had seen to make these heroes unconscious.
Dai Shan, who was in the last row, was filled with anger and anger. His eyes turned from surprise to a look of deep disappointment, and then his eyes were full of anxiety.
The same expression changes flashed in the eyes of Abai, Mang Gurtai and others.
No one else saw this scene except themselves.
The imperial doctor straightened Huang Taiji upright, and after pushing the blood through the palace for a while, Huang Taiji violently vomited out another mouthful of blood: "Child Chongzhen, you are hateful!"
After roaring, his breathing was like a bellows, huffing and puffing, and it took almost half a quarter of an hour to return to normal.
"Khan, what are you..."
"You guys should take a look too!"
Before Azig finished speaking, Huang Taiji handed over the paper in his hand.
Everyone crowded together and looked at the contents on the paper, and their faces instantly darkened.
Regarding the Eight Great Locust Merchants, as important ministers of the Hou Jin Dynasty and Nurha's biological children, they naturally knew about the Eight Great Locust Merchants.
It can be said that Houjin can develop so rapidly because of the eight companies, but now they have been taken away from the blame.
The eight families transport hundreds of thousands of stones, grain and grass to them every year, as well as a large amount of salt, tea, iron, etc., and more importantly, firearms.
Now that this supply line is cut off, all their plans will be disrupted.
Why do they dare to take the initiative to attack Guanning's defense line? On the one hand, it is to obtain supplies, and on the other hand, it is to have sufficient confidence.
Why dare to go to the grassland to conquer the Mongolian tribes? It is because of the support of eight families.
Why do you dare to boast that Haikou has promised various ministries to provide some grain, salt, tea, etc. at low prices? It is because of the existence of the Eight Families.
Now everything is in chaos.
Huang Taiji sat on the throne with a gloomy face, his eyes changing.
Amin, who had personally led an army to pursue Lin Dan Khan a few days ago, changed his previous strategy of pursuing and fighting fiercely and turned to driving him away.
Let Lin Danhan and Tumut go shopping, and then reap the benefits.
Now that this supply is cut off, the pressure on them has increased greatly, and it has become a joke to reap the benefits.
The eight families export five to six hundred thousand dan of grain and grass to Daijin every year, which can ensure that hundreds of thousands of troops are fed for half a year. With their own supplies, the military grain and grass supply is stable.
Now that this area is gone, the vacancy is so big, and if supplies cannot be found, the problem will be huge.
Not to mention hunting down Chahar Lindan Khan, even ensuring the needs of the army would be a headache.
The most important thing is that Ming Dynasty confiscated eight families and the palace of Prince Jin. He didn't know how much money Prince Jin had.
But these eight companies would cost at least 30 million taels to do business with them. Such a huge amount of money could support Liaodong's squandering for several years.
As one goes and the other goes, the efforts of two generations over several years are likely to be in vain.
"Great Khan, are we going to change our strategy now?"
"Great Khan, news came from the Haraqin tribe a few days ago. They discovered that a large area of the pasture has experienced a sharp decline in water and grass due to drought.
If this continues, the number of cattle, sheep, etc. may be greatly reduced this year, and the food reserves will be insufficient. Please provide some support. "
"Great Khan, the National Academy of History observed the celestial phenomena in the past few days. It is predicted that there will be a severe drought in Dajin from this year to next year. There are three reasons.
First, Shaanxi in the Ming Dynasty has been experiencing drought for several consecutive years, with this year being the worst, and the scope is gradually expanding.
Second, since the Chinese New Year, celestial phenomena such as warm days and cold nights, droughts and thunder have occurred frequently. These are signs of drought.
Third, drought and water shortages occurred in the Karaqin region and other places, which also confirms this point.
If there is a drought, and without the support of the eight companies, it is very likely that we will be short of food and grass, and the food reserves will only be enough for half a year!
If it is serious, it will cause prices to rise, silver will be cheap but everything will become expensive, and there will even be cannibalism like in Shaanxi during the Ming Dynasty. Please make plans early! "
"Khan, if..."
…
In the Chongzheng Hall, Daishan and others took turns reporting. Anyway, there are many problems in the country. Please give the Khan a countermeasure, and we will follow suit.
Huang Taiji's face on the throne was so gloomy that he could shed tears. He knew very well what these people were thinking.
But seeing that the current situation is a bit chaotic, they want to fish in troubled waters and squeeze themselves down so that they can take the upper hand.
Now that we are in this situation, we still don’t know how to unite to overcome difficulties and still think about fighting for power. They are really a bunch of pig teammates.
"First, let the Karaqin tribe ask for help from the Ming Dynasty."
Everyone was stunned, and they all wondered if the Great Khan was angry.
The Haraqin tribe has secretly taken refuge in their Dajin. Although it has not been fully disclosed, Da Ming is not a fool and must have known some rumors.
Let Ming ask for help at this moment. It would be good if Ming does not send troops to kill them. How can it be possible to provide food.
Looking at everyone's expressions, Huang Taiji sneered in his heart, how could he compete with Ben Han with his IQ?
He sneered in his heart, but said calmly on the surface: "They used to be the barrier of the Ming Dynasty. When they asked for help from the Ming Dynasty, they said that they were forced to submit because of the military oppression of the Ming Dynasty.
But it’s just on the surface, my heart is still towards the Ming Dynasty.
If the Ming Dynasty supports them with food and grass, they will one day attack the Jin Dynasty with the Ming Dynasty.
Various similar excuses made them think more, and we could even cooperate with the scene and be beaten back by the Karaqin tribe.
After the Ming Dynasty sees the effect, if it allocates food and waits until the Haraqin tribe has food, it will support us.
The Han people have a saying: Build plank roads openly and visit Chen Cang secretly. This is probably what it means! "
Everyone's expressions were confused again. They didn't expect to be able to play like this, and secretly sighed at Huang Taiji's shamelessness.
Huang Taiji didn't seem to see everyone's expressions, but frowned slightly, seeming to be thinking about something.
After a while, he continued: "Tell them to report this to the Ming Dynasty court in advance, and also give a copy to Yuan Chonghuan, and ask him to forward it on his behalf."
Everyone was not only confused at this moment, but also full of doubts. What kind of thing is this?
Is it a divorce plan?
Or is there another secret?
Faced with everyone's speculation, Huang Taiji chuckled. The current situation was quite reminiscent of the Three Kingdoms.
Jiannu and Liaodong are Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi, while Chongzhen is Cao Pi and Cao Rui.
The subtlety of this is not obvious to outsiders!
"Second, let Han Run and Zheng Mei go to Uiju County in North Korea. They defected from North Korea and are familiar with North Korea.
See if you can plan a little, buy some, grab some if you can’t buy them, in short, just want food! "
"Third, go to Ming Dynasty to grab food!"
