Chapter 2193 Gui Zi Juan Jianzhou situation, each showing its own advantages
Abai calmed down, exchanged glances with Netu on the side, and then considered his words: "Father Khan, everyone, I know that everyone has made a lot of preparations for sending troops in September, but now it is best to see The opportunity to send troops has been lost, but we have been slow to provide intelligence support for sending troops. In fact, this is not the case. All of us in Beijing have gone all out to collect intelligence from all aspects in order to meet Father Khan's request for sending troops as soon as possible, but the result But it always fails.”
Nurhachi frowned, where did all the nonsense come from?
However, he is still patient. After all, he is his own son. If he really gets the training, he will not hesitate to give him more opportunities.
Fortunately, Abai didn’t waste any more nonsense and went straight to the point: “The reason why Father Khan hoped to dispatch troops in September was based on several reasons. First, it was the agreement between Lindan Batur and even Yulindan Batu. I contact the Su Nang of the Tumote Department and work together, as well as the Bailian Han people in Fengzhou; secondly, I hope that the main army of Dazhou will be restrained to quell the rebellion in Jiangnan, especially in the battle of Shandong; thirdly, Dazhou Mountain The civil unrest in Shaanxi disturbed the overall situation and forced the three towns of Yulin, Shanxi and Datong to dispatch troops south to quell the rebellion. This would give opportunities to the Chahar and Tumote people as well as the Bailian Han people in Fengzhou; the fourth is to take advantage of the fact that the rebellion in Huguang and Sichuan has not been suppressed. The pacification also provided an opportunity to contain the Zhou army to a certain extent, but we found that these points had actually undergone some changes in September..."
Nurhachi was also a little surprised to see that his son could analyze several key points so clearly.
Even though he knew that this was mostly due to Netu, he was still very happy to be able to speak so clearly in this hall, which Abai did not have the ability to do at least two or three years ago.
Chu Ying, Dai Shan and Huang Taiji had complicated expressions. Abai, who had never taken them seriously, was able to express his views eloquently. What was going on?
Daishan was somewhat mentally prepared. He had stayed in Beijing and knew very well that this was a very demanding job. As long as he was willing to study hard and figure it out, he might not be able to improve. It seemed that Abai had really worked hard. Ah, Netu is really willing to help this kid.
"…, we have contacted Fengzhou White Lotus. They are not ready to attack as Lindan Batur and the Tumut people said. In fact, according to them, they are more willing to fight with the White Lotus Sect in the Central Plains. At first, we thought it was Shanshan civil unrest and they were responsible for it, but later we learned that was not the case. The Shanshan unrest was purely caused by the drought and starving people who rebelled, and the local government was unable to respond. ,…”
"Wait a minute!" Nurhaci interrupted Abai and asked sharply: "Are you saying that the Bailian Han people in Fengzhou don't listen to the Tumut and Chahar people?"
Abai hesitated, "From what we know, maybe the Tumut and Chahar people can exert some influence on them, but it is far from enough to make them obey orders. My son can be sure that if it does not meet their wishes, Whether it is the Tumut people or the Chahar people, they cannot be forced to send troops to attack Han."
Nurhachi turned to look at Netu, "Netu, is this the case?"
“Hui Khan, that’s true.” Netu replied affirmatively.
Nurhaci secretly cursed Lindan Batur, "an unreliable thing", and assured himself repeatedly that they could definitely command Fengzhou White Lotus, and even use the Fengzhou White Lotus Han people to influence the White Lotus believers in the Central Plains to launch a rebellion. It seemed that it would be the opposite. It's a reversal. Instead, the Fengzhou White Lotus Han people have to listen to the command of the Central Plains White Lotus Sect. But where can they find the upper-level leaders of the Central Plains White Lotus Sect now?
Seeing that Nurhaci just frowned but did not speak, Abai continued.
"The second factor is that the progress of the Great Zhou Imperial Army in the battle to regain Shandong was no longer what we imagined. Before August, the Great Zhou Imperial Army and the Nanjing Imperial Army fought fiercely, but there was not much progress, so Father Khan It was right to hope to use them to contain the Zhou army, but after late August, the situation should have changed. The armies of Sun Chengzong and Feng Tang won consecutively in Shandong, and soon drove the Nanjing imperial army to Jining and Yanzhou. And it only took less than ten days to recapture Jining and Yanzhou, completely solving the Shandong problem. If we wanted to send troops to Liaodong at that time, Sun Chengzong's army could even sail directly from Dengzhou to western and southern Liaoning..."
"You said shipping from Dengzhou to western Liaoning and southern Liaoning?" Dai Shan couldn't help but interjected and asked: "Isn't shipping all controlled by the Jiangnan side? How can there be so many ships in the northern part of the Great Zhou Dynasty?"
"My second brother doesn't know that since the seventh year of Yonglong, Northland's shipping has developed rapidly, not only in Dengzhou, Shandong, but also in Yuguan on the border of Shanhaiguan, and in Dagu outside Tianjin. This has become the most developed area in Northland. Fast ports, shipyards have been established in these three places, and there is more than one shipyard in each place. In addition, Northland merchants have also bought many ships from the south in recent years. In response to the interruption of canal water transportation, I specially found someone to go to the three places. I have learned that there are no less than 400 ships traveling between these three places and the south of the Yangtze River. These are the ships of merchants from the north, not counting the ships from the south of the Yangtze River heading north..."
Since the Jianzhou Jurchens captured Kuandian Liubao, they have actually blocked the land connection between Liaodong and North Korea. This has also made the Jianzhou Jurchens have an increasing influence on North Korea.
Although the Zhou Dynasty can still communicate with North Korea by sea, shipping in the north has never been very developed. Although there are contacts with North Korea in the south of the Yangtze River, they are basically purely commercial. The influence of the Zhou court in North Korea is increasing day by day. Weakened.
However, if the maritime transport in the northern part of the Great Zhou Dynasty developed, especially if the line from Dengzhou, Dagu to Jinzhouwei was opened up to connect North Korea, then the influence that the Jianzhou Jurchens had finally won in North Korea would probably be snatched away by the Great Zhou Dynasty again. After going back, Jianzhou Jurchen is now purely an inland area, with no navy at all, and may even be blocked by the Great Zhou Dynasty from sea access.
Nurhachi's face darkened, and he realized that if the maritime transport of the Great Zhou Dynasty prospered, especially if western Liaoning and southern Liaoning were included in the scope of maritime transport, wouldn't the army of the Great Zhou Dynasty be able to bypass the land route of the Western Liaoning Corridor and go directly to sea transport? On the one hand, on the other hand, In terms of transportation of materials, it is simply much more convenient, and the transportation cost is even different.
Fortunately, this momentum has only appeared for two or three years. Once this situation continues for a long time, the advantages of the Jianzhou Jurchens will no longer exist, and the disadvantages will continue to expand. If it drags on for ten years, the Jianzhou Jurchens will not have any peace at all. It is possible for Dazhou to compete.
Everyone noticed the unswerving expression on the Khan's face, and the atmosphere in the hall became even more gloomy.
“Keep talking.” Nurhachi calmed down his emotions and said in a deep voice.
"The third factor is that although the civil unrest in Shanxi and Shaanxi seemed to be huge, it did not attract the troops from Yulin, Shanxi and Datong towns to go south to quell the rebellion. From the intelligence we have, it is unclear about Yulin Town, but Shanxi The town only sent more than 10,000 people southward, while Datong Town did not send any troops southward at all. It may be because the changes of the Chahar people made both towns wary. This means that even if Chahar and Fengzhou Bailian want to It may not be easy to break through the border wall..."
They are all unpleasant news, and Nurhaci is a little irritated, but he also understands the Han people's proverb that good advice is hard to hear but helps practice. If this is true, then you have to listen to it, and you have to listen to it and come up with countermeasures.
"The fourth factor is the rebellion in Huguang and Sichuan in the south. In fact, Wang Ziteng's army has now taken the initiative to retreat into Jiangxi. The Zhou imperial army is still staying in Huguang and has not further invaded Jiangxi. This may be because Jiangxi has already It is the sphere of influence of the Nanjing court. Unlike Huguang, it is not easy to fight. In addition, the army of the Zhou court did not perform very well in Huguang..."
Nurhachi interrupted impatiently: "From this point of view, it doesn't make much sense, right?"
Abai was stunned for a moment and nodded quickly: "Father Khan is right, it really doesn't make much sense. Wang Ziteng only needs to wait for work in Jiangxi. I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Zhou court to gain much advantage."
"Abai, you have said so many negative factors, but these negative factors will always exist, and may even become more negative as time goes by. So, wouldn't it be useless for us to have been preparing for so long? What’s the meaning? When will Father Khan’s wish come true?”
Chu Ying finally found the opportunity to show herself.
Chu Ying knew that her father Khan had been dissatisfied with her for a while, and there were even rumors that her father would put her under house arrest. This frightened Chu Ying so much that her originally arrogant and irritable temperament also calmed down a lot. He had always regarded Dai Shan and Huang Taiji as his biggest rivals, but he didn't expect that today Abai, a guy who had never even caught sight of them in the past, actually jumped up and jumped very happily.
It should be said that Abai's performance really impressed many people present. Not only Chu Ying, but also Daishan, Huang Taiji, Mang Gurtai, Abatai and others began to take this brother seriously. Others, such as Fei Yingdong, He Heli, An Feiyanggu and others, also had some other thoughts in their minds.
Among the Baylors, everyone thinks that Chu Ying is not good. Among the older Baylors, Daishan and Huang Taiji are the most suitable to inherit the throne in the future. Abatai and Derge are also good. The other scholars are too young to watch. come out.
Now Daishan and Huang Taiji are working together to suppress Chu Ying. Chu Ying is still unwilling to give up, but he has gradually fallen out of favor with the Great Khan.
