I gather power with my gift of God and build the heaven.

When the Salvation Army defeated Ligdan Khan and escorted the captives back to the Great Wall, Huang Taiji pursued them for a month and finally arrived at Guihua City.

By this time, it was already mid-May.

After arriving at Guihua City, Huang Taiji and others realized that Lin Danhan had now crossed the Yellow River.

After discussing with everyone, Huang Taiji finally decided that this expedition against Ligdan Khan would end here.

If we cross the Yellow River and launch a long expedition, some unforeseen accidents are inevitable.

Not to mention whether the Ming army would suddenly attack and cut off their retreat, the long supply line alone was a huge problem.

However, the three men had just landed and had not yet gained their footing when they heard a burst of gunfire coming from the distance.

"what's going on?"

However, this does not mean that there is really no impact.

Just like if you live in a bright and shiny villa or in a cramped and dirty three-foot-high house, can your mood be the same?

On May 13, Huang Taiji summoned the great beile Daishan, beile Manggurtai and other beiles, as well as Manchu, Mongolian, and Han officials to discuss the next actions.

Huang Taiji formed a large number of extraordinary troops.

However, based on ancient Chinese legends and his own observations and insights into both, he was able to get a general idea of it.

Looking at the scattered bright yellow light as faint as mist in the sky, and the overwhelming gray and black air, Huang Taiji frowned deeply.

The various tribes submitted to the Qing Dynasty because it was powerful and could bring them more benefits.

"Have you found out where the Qing army has reached now?"

The ultimate result is a world of five turbidities and evil, with people’s resentment boiling over and overwhelming.

The more Huang Taiji thought about it, the more possible it seemed.

Historically, Huang Taiji actually attacked Datong and Xuanfu in the seventh year of Chongzhen in 1634.

But more importantly, it was because Lindan Khan dealt too severe a blow to the country's destiny before his death.

"clap clap"

Looking at the surging Yellow River, Wang Zhenyuan couldn't help but frowning slightly. He always felt that the Yellow River seemed to have undergone some changes.

Even without mentioning other things, based on his current merit in killing Ligdan Khan, wouldn't it be easy for him to be promoted to general?

It is precisely because of these reasons that Zhou Junsheng has never looked down on Wang Zhenyuan. Although he did not try to please him deliberately, he did respond with kindness.

Zhou Junsheng couldn't help but laugh and said:

In this way, as time goes by, people's grievances will gradually disappear, the country's fortunes will gradually prosper, and social order will naturally return to normal.

But what is the situation on the west side of the Yellow River?

Huang Taiji looked solemnly towards the west of the Yellow River. The pure bright yellow light enveloped the sky and the earth, blocking all his investigations.

Could it be that Ligdan Khan was preparing to completely abandon the area east of the Yellow River and no longer consider it as his territory?

After much pondering, Huang Taiji finally decided to send scouts to investigate.

"I said, you are not as cautious as the king.

Doesn’t the King know the gap between the armies of other forces and our people’s salvation army?

How is that possible.

But now, it is two years ahead of schedule.

On May 18, Huang Taiji issued another order to the beiles leading the troops on both wings:

"If there are many captives, take them if you can, but if you cannot take all of them, leave it to the discretion of the generals.

The final result of the discussion was naturally to attack Datong and Xuanfu, which were adjacent to Guihua City.

"Hmm~? What's going on?"

"It's not that I think there's an ambush or any danger, I just feel that the Yellow River is a little different.

Besides, it’s always better to be cautious.”

"Ha ha."

However, he never underestimated it.

"The scout sentry found a Qing scout five miles ahead and captured and killed him."

So the two of them get along very well.

"Could it be that the Qing army has already arrived nearby?"

As long as you have the determination, won’t you be able to improve in minutes?

The destiny of a country and the resentment of the people are equivalent to different spiritual environments, and people’s spirits will also be affected.

This creates a vicious cycle.

"I am Zhang Jianmin, paying my respects to the three generals."

"Based on the fighting power of Lin Danhan's men, I think we only need to send a team of one or two thousand people to wipe them out.

Even if we add the Qing troops from Hedong, with the firepower we have now, two or three thousand people should be enough, right?"

“Am I cautious?”

The Later Jin was not the Ming Dynasty. Even at the end of the dynasty, there was a foundation to drag the Later Jin to death.

If they do not gain enough benefits from the huge amount of money spent on the expedition against Lin Danhan, they will inevitably feel resentful.

An army of one or two hundred thousand attacked Ligdan Khan, forcing him to move westward.

Zhou Junsheng frowned and looked at the Yellow River, not finding anything different at all, so he smiled and said:

In just a moment, the sentry leader of a scout team quickly came up to the three people and stood in front of them to salute.

Therefore, he was quite able to accept the changes in the Tatar Tumed national destiny and the public resentment.

"Have it?"

Then because of the westward migration, public resentment arose and the tribes became alienated, so was public resentment so high?

After deciding to stop the pursuit, Huang Taiji led his troops into Guihua City.

After chatting and laughing for a while, the three of them took a boat across the Yellow River.

Wang Zhenyuan and the other man were not surprised, but turned their heads to look naturally.

However, he couldn't say what it was exactly.

The person who could interrupt the conversation between the two was naturally Yulin General Yang Zonghan.

Hearing this, Wang Zhenyuan hesitated and said:

Moreover, no matter whether it is the destiny of a country or the resentment of the people, it is the gathering of the spiritualities of all living beings.

This is because the spiritual energy in this world has revived and the extraordinary has risen.

It's just a river between us, how could the country's destiny change so much?

Is it because the people taken away by Lin Danhan were all completely loyal to him and had no complaints against him, which made the country's destiny so pure?

However, the destiny of a country is a whole. Even if there are differences in different places, the gap should not be so big.

This is the king’s childhood friend from the same village.

Did the country's fortune disappear just because of the westward migration?

The King never fights a battle he is not sure of winning, and always crushes the enemy with the absolute difference in combat power.

Even though he was confident that the Qing Dynasty would remain strong under his rule.

It would be fine if the Qing Dynasty remained strong, but once it showed signs of fatigue, these people might counterattack.

Wang Zhenyuan was slightly stunned, and then he said hesitantly, with a dazed look on his face for a moment. If he had been so cautious at the time, there wouldn't have been so many casualties.

He was previously stationed in Zhenluwei, which was close to the Yellow River. He always felt that the Yellow River was a little different now than before.

All of the country's fortunes were almost drained away, and what was left was naturally all the gray and black energy of public resentment.

At the same time as the Qing army attacked Datong, the people's rescue army in the Hetao Plain also began to cross the river and move eastward.

"General Wang, is there any problem?"

"Qing army scout?"

Such talented geniuses are often able to conquer a group of people, break the existing order, suppress all disobedience, and re-establish a good order.

As the commander-in-chief of Ningxia, Zhou Junsheng naturally knew Wang Zhenyuan very well.

For all the captured people by the Beile, some soldiers with weak horses should be left behind to guard the place, and they should go deep into the area to harass them. When the troops return, their houses and food supplies can be burned.

Perhaps this does not directly affect people's thinking consciousness.

"Well, you are indeed very cautious, but compared to the king, you are still a little behind."

Looking at the ministers below, Huang Taiji said calmly:

"We originally came here to attack Chahar, but Chahar was unable to resist and fled, so it is useless to pursue him.

“I think we should be more cautious.

At least five or six thousand soldiers are needed to avoid any accidents, right?"

The three of them frowned and quickly looked in the direction where the gunshot came from.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. There shouldn't be any problem. Most of our troops have already crossed the Yellow River. Even if the Qing army has an ambush, it won't make much sense."

However, the gains from this process did not meet expectations.

"Haha, you are just too cautious!"

Of course, in such an environment, strong-willed and outstanding talents can also be born.

"General, according to the interrogation, the Qing army did not advance westward, but was stationed in Guihua City. They were only sent by Huang Taiji to inquire about the situation of Hexi Lingdan Khan."

Zhou Junsheng and the other man looked at each other and burst out laughing at the same time.

However, some things that can be avoided are better avoided.

However, the king still mobilized two guards and 10,000 soldiers, and launched an attack from both sides, fearing that Lin Danhan would escape.

And that's not all. The king even organized and mobilized General Wang's rangers.

In terms of prudence, who can compare with the king of heaven?"

In fact, there are indeed reasons for this.

Although before, Wang Zhenyuan was just the head of the inspection office of a remote small town, even now he is just a guerrilla general, which is several levels lower than the general.

"Indeed, indeed!"

Otherwise, having such a strong national destiny right next to him would really make him feel uneasy.

Seeing Wang Zhenyuan like this, Zhou Junsheng, the Ningxia general who was commanding his soldiers to cross the river, couldn't help but come over and said with a smile.

Facing the gazes of the two men, General Yang Zonghan of Yulin looked at the soldiers crossing the river, and said with a smile with some emotion again:

Our troops are exhausted now. Should we withdraw our troops temporarily and wait for the next attack?

Or should we first capture the Mongolian tribes and then invade Ming territory?

Which of the two is more convenient, you ministers can decide and make a report."

Wang Zhenyuan looked at the surging Yellow River with a puzzled expression.

Suddenly, an emotional voice interrupted the conversation between the two.

At this time, Huang Taiji might not have such a profound understanding of the country's destiny and the people's resentment.

However, in addition to sending people to explore what happened west of the Yellow River after Lin Danhan moved west, he also had to think about what to do next.

I will stay in Guihua City and wait for you."

Seeing Wang Zhenyuan's expression change, he couldn't help but come over and ask.

Being easily angered and violent, and getting into fights at every turn, are all very common things.

I don’t know what’s going on with Lin Danhan. How did the country’s destiny become like this?

Naturally, where public resentment is high, chaos is likely to breed.

In short, Huang Taiji meant that the army that entered the Ming Dynasty to plunder could take as much as they could, and those that could not be taken away would be left to the soldiers to deal with on their own.

Moreover, when withdrawing troops, they would burn houses and food and cause as much destruction as possible.

The ministers gathered together and said: "Our army has come close to the Ming territory. It is best to first capture the Mongolian people and then enter the Ming territory to plan for great events."

"Nothing? I just feel like the Yellow River seems a little different."

As his own strength and the strength of his army increased, Huang Taiji naturally became more confident and finally made the decision to attack Datong Xuanfu.

Zhou Junsheng nodded repeatedly at the side. He also felt that with the combat effectiveness of the People's Salvation Army, coupled with the terrifying firepower of guns and artillery, as long as they sent out an army of a thousand people, it would be enough to sweep away hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops from neighboring countries.

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhenyuan and the other man both sighed.

Chaotic places are more likely to breed negative emotions.

"To find out about Lin Danhan's situation? Oh!"

Everyone was stunned at first, and then they suddenly realized that the Qing army must not know that Ligdan Khan was dead.

Huang Taiji might have thought that the one occupying the Hetao region was Lin Dan Khan.
