Chapter 564: Who will take over the city of Hetuala?



The issue of marriage has been going on for a while. Ever since witnessing the great victory of the Ming Dynasty, everyone has started thinking about it. Even the King of Korea, who originally had no such idea, has thought about marriage.

Zhu Youxiao had no good feelings towards these guys who wanted to be his father-in-law.

A bunch of old guys, do you want to kill me?

Zhu Youxiao didn't dare to do this, it gave him a headache.

It is not easy to refuse this matter. Once you refuse, it will seem that you are not good to them.

In this era, an important way to maintain relationships was marriage, marrying one's daughter to the emperor.

Zhu Youxiao really didn't want to be their cheap son-in-law. With Bumbutai in front, these people also had reasons to marry, which made it difficult to deal with.

Zhu Youxiao rubbed his temples, looked at Chen Hong and said directly: "Okay, let's leave it at that for now."

There is no good solution for the time being, so we can only drag it out and then analyze the specific situation.

Knowing that the emperor was in a bad mood, but unable to help with this matter, Chen Hong did not dare to say anything.

If this makes the emperor even more unhappy, he might punish me, which would be more trouble than good.

Chen Hong quickly bowed and agreed, "Yes, Your Majesty."

After the good news of victory came, everyone was celebrating.

Zhu Youxiao was a little overwhelmed, but he couldn't tell anyone about this terrible thing, nor could he discuss it with anyone else, so he could only be depressed by himself.

And in the front, the Ming army could be said to be advancing at a rapid pace.

On the Eastern Route Army side, after eliminating Huang Taiji, Lu Xiangsheng led his men in pursuit, charging directly towards Hetuala City. His goal was simple: to capture Hetuala in one battle. They encountered no significant resistance along the way, and could be said to have advanced straight ahead.

On the Central Army side, after Sun Chuanting captured Fushun, he also advanced at full speed. Some even abandoned their baggage and marched lightly. He had only one goal: to reach Hetuala City as quickly as possible.

On the other hand, Xiong Tingbi of the Western Route Army was also on his way, but he was not as fast as Lu Xiangsheng and the others. It was not because he didn't want to, but because he couldn't.

Although he had won the battle easily before, it was basically useless. It was impossible for him to rush to Hetuala City. The distance was too far. No matter how he ran, he could not get there before Lu Xiangsheng and the others.

Then he simply didn't run away, but decided to proceed steadily. If the two of them were defeated, he could go and provide them with reinforcements. So Xiong Tingbi stopped and started along the way, clearing out the enemy along the way, applying the four words "steady and steady" to the extreme.

In Sun Chuanting's team.

Zhang Zhao came up to Sun Chuanting and said somewhat dejectedly, "General, our men have spotted General Lu's scouts. They've already reached Hetuala before us, but it seems they haven't attacked yet."

"It's still a step too late." Sun Chuanting sighed softly and said in a helpless tone.

Zhang Zhao didn't feel well at all.

For them, this was considered a failure. Although the battle for Hetuala City had not yet begun, Lu Xiangsheng would not allow them to take action until it was conquered.

This is not the way to grab the credit, you can only wait.

Under such circumstances, the entire army was in a bad mood. Everyone now knew that Hetuala was a piece of fat meat, and Huang Taiji was dead, so the resistance here would not be very firm.

Even if they were determined, it would be useless. It wouldn't be difficult to defeat them. Both Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting had this confidence.

In this situation, it's first come, first served. Besides, this is the Jurchen capital, and there are a lot of good things here. After rushing in, just grabbing the things will make you rich. Who wouldn't want such a thing?

During the journey, Sun Chuanting used a lot of these things to lure the soldiers and boost morale, but he was still a step too late.

Glancing at the somewhat frustrated Zhang Zhao, Sun Chuanting said helplessly, "Alright, don't wait any longer. Take our men and move in. Let's go attack the old city."

After saying this, Sun Chuanting turned his horse around and left.

There is no need to stay here any longer, as I can't wait for Lu Xiangsheng's call for help.

There's a relatively important city near Hetuala, the Old City. Go there first to fight and loot some of the enemies, and appease your men. Otherwise, if you don't do it right, morale might be low and things could get out of hand.

Sun Chuanting made this choice directly.

The old city was built on the ruins of the "Jianzhou Old Camp" in the 14th year of the Wanli reign. It is not far from Hetuala, and from the distance it is the most suitable place to attack.

The population here is relatively large, and it can be considered an important city for the Jurchens, so it is a good opportunity to take it down.

At the foot of Hetuala City, Lu Xiangsheng also heard the report from his subordinates.

Hearing his men say that Sun Chuanting had left, Lu Xiangsheng burst into laughter. He turned to look at Cao Wenzhao and said with some pride, "Did you see that? I was right, he left! They won't be waiting for us here."

After hearing this, Cao Wenzhao nodded in agreement and said, "Let's fight quickly. After we take Hetuala City, we still have to go somewhere else. We can't let him take all the credit!"

Cao Wenzhao's tone was filled with excitement, and his face was also excited, so excited that he was almost shaking.

But Lu Xiangsheng remained silent and didn't comment.

It's normal for everyone to take credit, but sometimes things can't be taken too far.
