Chapter 68 Are you sure this is Quang Ninh?

"The envoy, is what is said above true?"

Lin Danhan read the letters written by Zhu Youjian in advance, and even the title of the envoy changed, and he changed to the envoy.

"This is written by His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, how can it be false?"

He looked arrogant and had a perfect attitude towards the Celestial Kingdom. This person was not someone else, but Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of the Liaodong District of the Ming Dynasty.

"That's right, that's right, please sit down quickly, please sit down quickly."

Seeing that Yuan Chonghuan was a little angry, Lin Danhan personally led him to sit down, and then instructed his subordinates to treat the envoys with the highest etiquette to sing and dance, and roast the whole sheep first.

"Da Khan, don't be busy with food for now. Do you know what Your Majesty of the Ming Dynasty said?"

"I understand, understand, this time my Hutuktu tribe can turn danger into a barrage, all depends on the power of the Ming Dynasty. The righteousness of the Ming Dynasty is weak. I will never forget it. I will be the leader of the Ming Dynasty in the future."

As he said that, Lin Danhan raised the wine bowl in his hand and gave it a toast.

"Well, Dahan is so serious. The Ming Dynasty and the Tiger Squat Rabbit Division have been friendly for generations, and now they have a common enemy, so they should help each other."

Yuan Chonghuan said his noble diplomatic rhetoric without blushing when he lied, and said after a bowl of wine.

"Then what the Khan thought about the attack on Korchin by His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty?"

Yuan Chonghuan's mission to squat the rabbit was not only to inform the Ming Dynasty about the attack on Liaodong to remove the siege of Baicheng, but more importantly, to convince Lin Danhan and take advantage of the opportunity when the main force of the Korqin tribe followed the Jurchen eastward to severely damage Korqin.

This will break the Manchu-Mongolian alliance and give the other Mongolian troops who are waiting and watching and swaying.

"Empress, I am a feud with the Korchin tribe. If there weren't Jurchens behind me, I would have wanted to destroy it."

Speaking of this, Lin Danhan changed his mind and then said.

"But you also know that Hutuktu was besieged by the 60,000 Manchu and Mongolian army for more than ten days. The warriors were killed and injured. Otherwise, they would not have allowed Huang Taiji to withdraw his troops without pursuing them. If I do not hide the envoy, I can't even get five thousand elite soldiers out now."

Lin Danhan looked helpless.

"Haha, Khan doesn't have to worry. Your Majesty has already made up for this matter. This time, this attack on Korchin Mongolia is not the Khan, and our Ming Dynasty will also send 10,000 elite troops to accompany him. The army is outside Baicheng. I just wait for the Khan to agree and will raise an army together tomorrow."

Yuan Chonghuan said as he shook the folding fan in his hand and looked at Lin Danhan's expression.

Lin Danhan was shocked at first when he heard this, but soon returned to calm and said calmly: "With the help of the Ming Dynasty, I believe that this battle will be a complete victory."

"Haha, the Khan is really a hero in the world. Your Majesty said that our Ming Dynasty and the Hudun Rabbit Division have been together for generations. In this battle, our Ming Dynasty only has horses, and the rest of the population and supplies will be returned to the Khan."

Lin Danhan felt a little relieved when he heard this.

During this Manchu and Mongolian siege, the population and food of Hudun Rabbit were greatly lost. The surrounding tribes were scattered and fled. Otherwise, no one would have discovered that even ten thousand Ming troops would have detoured to the outside of Baicheng.

After Huang Taiji retreated, Lin Danhan didn't know how to survive this spring. If he could go to Korqin to grab one, he should be able to survive the disaster and take the opportunity to gather the scattered tribes.

Lin Danhan immediately slapped Yuan Chonghuan and agreed to raise an army together tomorrow morning.

The next morning, Lin Danhan and Yuan Chonghuan left Baicheng early, and saw that ten thousand Ming troops were ready to fight.

Lin Danhan immediately felt a little cold on his back. The loss of Hudun Rabbit this time was really great. Ten thousand Ming troops were already in their hinterland as if they were in a state of no one.

Putting away his lonely mood, under Yuan Chonghuan's introduction, Lin Danhan enthusiastically exchanged greetings with Ming army generals Yang Guozhu and Ma Shilong for a moment.

Yang Guozhu and Ma Shilongjiu were generals in Xuanfu, Datong, Jizhen, Liaodong and other places. They had dealt with Lin Dankhan a lot before, but at that time they regarded each other as enemies.

Now, because of a common enemy, the Ming Dynasty and Huduntu stand together again, and the generals of both sides naturally become good brothers.

It really corresponds to the famous saying: There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.

The soldiers are very fast. In order to copy its nest before the main force of Korqin returned to the army, the coalition forces held a brief oath-taking ceremony and then set off.

At the same time, the morning glow dissipated, and more than ten thousand Ming troops were fighting horses across the Liao River.

"Your Majesty, at this marching speed, you can reach the banks of the Shuangtaizi River today."

Zhu Youjian squatted down and took a sip of the cold Liaohe River water. Just as he was about to sigh at the clearness and sweetness of the ancient river water, Zu Dashou came forward to report when he saw the opportunity.

"Well, the speed is still a little slower. I guess the little slave chief should have withdrawn at this time. We need to hurry up."

Zhu Youjian said, and then ordered the messenger.

"I inform the entire army to accelerate the advance, and be sure to cross the Shuangtaizi River before sunset!"

The command troops immediately scattered.

After a stick of incense, more than ten thousand Ming troops who had just crossed the Liao River did not have time to rest and ran towards Shuangtaizi River.

At the same time, on the vast Mongolian grassland, 20,000 Manchu and Mongolian cavalry were also galloping at high speed, leading the team Daishan and Mangourtai.

And half a day away from this cavalry, there were also 30,000 Eight Banners troops rushing towards Guangning, and the central army was filled with the ceremonial guards of the Jin Khan.

At this time, the Ming army started another day of blasting work in Guangning City. According to the progress of the project, all the city walls can be blasted today.

"You search the city today and set fire to the city early tomorrow morning. All infantrymen must evacuate before the Si hour today, leaving only three thousand cavalrymen to set fire tomorrow."

In Guangning Government Office, Man Gui was giving orders to retreat to the generals.

Today is the third day of the fall of Guangning City. If Huang Taiji immediately withdraws his troops after receiving the urgent report of Guangning being surrounded, the Eight Banners Pioneer will arrive in Guangning tomorrow evening.

Although Man Gui wanted to have another tough fight with the Tartars, because Zhu Youjian's prior explanation, the emperor's order should not be violated, so Man Gui had to retreat early tomorrow morning.

Soon, with the sound of blasting sounds, the last Ming army infantry in Guangning City also embarked on the return journey.

Looking at the infantry's backs away, Man Gui looked at Dongfang and murmured: "I don't know how your Majesty is doing, if you have already embarked on the journey back."

According to Zhu Youjian's plan, after Man Gui's 30,000 Ming troops destroyed Guangning, they must move to the Daling River line as soon as possible to support Zhu Youjian.

Zhao Rujiao, who had escorted the people of Guangning back to Jinzhou in advance, was only one day away from Daling River.

Just when the people crossed the Daling River, the Ming army escorted was about to set up defensive positions on the Daling River line.

As of now, everything about the Western Route Army's actions is in Zhu Youjian's plan, but the only uncertainty is when the Central Route Army will return.

If the Central Army could not withdraw its troops in time, because Zhu Youjian was there, the Ming army would definitely be forced to fight with the Jin army.

It will be hard to say who will win if you die.

Man Gui thought for a moment, but did not dare to think further. He had to silently pray that Zhu Youjian would come back in time.

Amid the explosion of "bang, bang, bang", the day passed quickly. In the evening, Guangning had become a city without a wall.

Taking advantage of the last afterglow of the sky, the three thousand Ming cavalry silently packed their bags and waited for the fire to set the fire tomorrow morning to leave the disappeared Guangning City.

In the afterglow of the sunset, in a tattered yurt on the grassland, Dai Shanzheng looked at his son who had one arm missing with anger, and Mangourtai next to him was also surprised.

"Why is the city broken?"

Dai Shan paced back and forth, saying this repeatedly, but he didn't ask whether Yue Tuo had his arm cut off and Shuo Tuo's whereabouts were unknown.

Instead, Manguertai next to him comforted Yue Tuo with a few words.

Yue Tuo has become accustomed to his father like Dai Shan.

Yue Tuo did not reveal any sadness, but instead suggested that Daishan and Manguertai go to Guangning as soon as possible in order to delay the Ming army and buy time for regaining Guangning.

Although Dai Shan often abused Yuetuo and Shuotuo, he was still very convinced by Yuetuo's plan.

The two of them discussed for a moment and decided to set off that night in order to arrive in Guangning as soon as possible.

That night, 20,000 Manchu and Mongolian coalition forces held up torches and galloped towards Guangning.

Finally, at noon the next day, the five thousand pioneers of Mangurtai rushed to the city of Guangning.

But looking at the disappearing city wall and the fire everywhere, Manguerta yelled at Bayala beside him for a long time.

"Are you sure this is Guangning?"
