"What does your Majesty mean?"
Faced with everyone's doubts, Chongzhen said softly: "I definitely want to help, but it's not free help. They have to pay for it.
For example, buying grain, salt, etc. at high prices! Lin Dan Khan was already very wealthy. He moved westward and robbed tribes along the way.
There are large amounts of gold, silver, furs, medicinal materials, etc. Rather than being taken away by the Jian slaves, it is better to give them to us. "
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then looked at each other and smiled.
This is taking advantage of the situation, but they like this.
"Your Majesty, given Lin Dan Khan's past style, if we make a request, he might just send troops to grab it!"
"Commander Hei, even if we don't make this request, after the battle between Lin Danhan and Tumut, there is a shortage of supplies.
If he can't replenish it, he will come to rob it, so it's better not to mention it. Between the survival of the tribe and the death of the tribe, he will probably bleed heavily. "
Yuan Keli finally understood Chongzhen's plan. After explaining, he added: "But we have to guard against it. I remember that when His Majesty left Taiyuan two months ago, he asked for roads around Datong that can be used by the army to enter." Digging them all into a trap, have you done this?"
"Your Majesty, Mr. Yuan Ge, this matter is the top priority of Datong Town. The general made arrangements immediately after taking over.
Among the seventy-two castles on the Eighth Route of Datong Town, four can be used for the entry and exit of large armies. I have already had people dig horse pits about a mile outside the fortress.
Our goal is to dig two miles of horse traps outside several castles, and at the same time, horse traps are already being prepared in the city. "
"good!"
Chongzhen was very satisfied, but also helpless!
Although horse traps and horse-rejecting stakes can stop the enemy, they can also stop themselves and make them more susceptible to destruction.
At this moment, Chongzhen thought of later generations using anti-tank cones made of concrete and a small amount of steel bars. He created an anti-tank cone defense line dozens of feet wide, and the cavalry was lost.
Of course, this is all a low-level move. The most important thing is that he has a powerful cavalry. As long as the enemy dares to come, he will destroy them.
"Chief Hei, while the two defensive fortifications are activated, focus on training firearms and archers. As long as the enemy attacks, you must be able to attack from a distance."
After Hei Yunlong responded, he hesitated: "Your Majesty, what if Jiannu knows that we sell supplies to Lin Dan Khan and they don't send troops?
Wouldn't that be an advantage for Lin Danhan? The materials sold to them to fight against the slave establishment would become materials for them to recuperate and recuperate? "
Chongzhen shook his head: "According to the news from the front line, Amin personally led the 30,000-strong army of Jiannu headquarters to pursue Lin Dan Khan.
Fan Wencheng and Saharian also frequently visited the surrounding Mongolian tribes along the way, and there were signs of troops from various tribes!
Therefore, I judge that Jian Nu will definitely fight Lin Dan Khan.
Of course, it is not without your consideration that you should take defensive measures to prevent them from sending troops to attack us.
The army of slave builders is now more than 400 miles behind Lin Dan Khan's army. First, they are waiting for Lin Dan Khan and the Tumote coalition forces to fight and reap the benefits.
The second is to wait for Fan Wencheng and others to contact other tribes to send troops.
Once the Lin Dan Khan and Tumut coalition forces begin to collide, the Jiannu army will speed up their march. At their speed, they will arrive in three to four days.
The victorious Lin Dan Khan army was scarred and exhausted, and its marching speed was greatly reduced. It would definitely not be able to outrun Jiannu.
The time difference is our opportunity to contact Lin Danhan and deliver supplies.
As for whether Jiannu will guess our plan and give up attacking Lin Danhan, that is not our decision. We just have to make our preparations. "
After Chongzhen finished speaking, he smiled coldly in his heart.
It is not Jiannu who has the final say if he does not attack Lin Dan Khan, it is him who has the final say.
If he dares to say this, he naturally has a plan.
For example, they spread the Ming Dynasty's plan to support Lin Dan Khan, and the Ming Dynasty sent envoys under false pretenses.
Or increase the annual gift. It used to be 80,000 taels, but now it can be given to 180,000 taels.
Or the imperial court issued an edict to recall Han craftsmen who were building slaves. If they did not come back, they would be treated as treason and their skills in building slaves would be cut off.
…
There are many methods, but the purpose is to put strong pressure on the slaves and give them an illusion.
Ming Dynasty provided supplies, Lin Danhan became Ming Dynasty's knife, and the two cooperated to build slaves.
Chahar Lindan Khan and Jiannu fought many times. Jiannu forced Lindan Khan to move westward. This was a great shame for Lindan Khan.
With Lin Dan Khan's personality, those who follow me will prosper and those who go against me will perish. After recuperating, he will definitely take revenge. Now that he has the support of Ming Dynasty, can he still do it?
As long as Huang Taiji is not stupid, he will definitely consume Lin Danhan's power before Ming's support is in place.
The coalition is formed, but it is timid. How can we talk about the face of the commander-in-chief and the liaison between the ministries?
Moreover, during the war, as long as some tactics are used, Lin Danhan's strength can be consumed by the power of liaison with various ministries. As for Jiannu's own strength, he may be able to preserve some of it.
The strength of the liaison tribes was exhausted. Facing the surrounding tribes, only by completely surrendering to Jiannu could the entire tribe be preserved. This was a matter of killing three birds with one stone.
With Fan Wencheng and Saha Lian here, Huang Taiji would definitely be informed of this little trick.
However, these plans are not something Hei Yunlong and Hou Gongji can know.
Regarding the plan to force Jiannu into the country and to round up and kill the elite Jiannu, we must not let the second person know about it, and we must not allow this plan to be aborted.
As for the above analysis, because Datong bears the heavy responsibility of defense, the specific plan needs to be implemented by Hei Yunlong and Hou Gongji.
After finishing the calculation in his mind, Chongzhen Chongzhen looked at a few people: "Okay, assuming that our analysis just now will be fully realized, let's take this opportunity to analyze it.
What does Lin Danhan lack most? What do we need? "
After everyone analyzed for a while, Hei Yunlong said: "Your Majesty, after Lin Dan Khan defeated Tumote, what he probably lacked most was food and weapons.
Hundreds of thousands of troops and civilians consume a huge amount of food every day. "
"I also guess that there is a lack of weapons. The two armies are fighting together with 256,000 soldiers. Weapons are the biggest consumption. Even if those broken and lost weapons can be remade, it will be too late."
"There is a lack of food and weapons, so we can't provide these. If we provide these, wouldn't the Ming Dynasty's strategy of controlling Mongolia over the years be in vain?"
"Otherwise, I am sure that even if we don't provide it, as long as Lin Danhan releases the news of buying it at a high price, some businessmen will dare to risk their homes and exterminate their families to deliver it.
Instead of doing this, why not offer it! But you can find a compromise, and if you do it well, you can even trick the slave once! "
Listening to Hou Gongji's analysis, everyone's eyes were full of curiosity and inquiry.
"Deputy Commander Hou, tell me quickly!"
