Let's say that when the three-person delegation of Qing envoys arrived in Kaohsiung, they were placed under house arrest, unlike the high-ranking officials on the Ming side, the Southeast Government gave them any appearance and led them to visit everywhere, and the Qing envoys were not so preferential, trapped in the pavilion, not allowed to go out, and not allowed to contact others.

However, one day, they received a notice that after Hong Sheng informed them of the position of the Southeast Prefecture, they could go back to their homes.

Ren Sony is proficient in Chinese, Tong Yang is interested in exploring the secrets of the cannon in the Southeast Mansion, and Ilden is very brave with his hands and feet, and it is difficult to get any benefits.

They bought a batch of sugar and wine from the southeast province, which was very expensive, at least twice as expensive as those sold in the mainland!

He took a sea ship in a gloomy manner, returned to Tianjin, changed ships again, went to Jinzhou, and then landed, and went to Shengjing to see Huang Taiji and report to him.

The matter was not done, the three of them were afraid to ask for guilt, Sonny played: "The southeast province is very strict, its control of the Ming Dynasty overseas, the port is the sea area of the southeast province, they take Tianjin as the end point, except for the warship, the plywood ships with guns are not allowed to pass through Tianjin, and the north is used by the fortune ship and the Guangzhou ship." We are not allowed to go out in Taiwan, we are not allowed to see anything, and even if Lord Fan Wencheng responds, we are not allowed to see him, and it is difficult for us to carry out our work. ”

Tong Yangxing also played: "The rule of the southeast province is stable, and it will be my strong opponent of the Qing Dynasty in the future, I heard that its consul has gone south to Java, and the current Taiwan province, known as women, old people, and foreigners, is a great spectacle, but the military and the people are stable, not to be underestimated!" ”

The woman refers to Yan Dashao's two concubines, who are the supreme commanders of Taiwan Province, the old man is Sun Chengzong, who is in charge of administration, and Storm, a foreigner, who is in charge of military and political affairs.

With such a peculiar combination, the military and civilians of Taiwan Province are honest, which shows that the rule of the Gan clan has been stabilized.

Huang Taiji sighed slightly: "They are indeed my fierce rivals!" ”

"A week ago, the Ming army raided my (Liaoning) Hongzui Fort area and plundered more than 100 of my people, and now the Southeast Mansion has sent people to say that they bought those people, together with more than ten captives who fell in the Ming Kingdom last year, saying that they want to exchange prisoners with us, and exchange those people for the return of the Sun family, I have agreed!"

His face was very ugly, so he simply stood up and paced back and forth in the hall, what annoyed him was not the threat of the other party and the losses of the other side, but the amazing combat power displayed by the Southeast Army!

Those Ming troops who raided the Hongzui Fort area must be the Southeast Army, and they attacked once, and the Manchus captured were actually more than the more Manchus captured by the more than the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Ming Dynasty!

Last year, the Qing army invaded from outside the country, and met with little resistance. From Zhili to Shandong, he went on a rampage, burning, killing and looting along the way. Fought until Jinan, due to strong resistance, the Qing army slaughtered more than 100,000 people, Shandong governor Song Xuezhu and Jinan political Deng Qian died in battle.

After the Jinan War, the Qing army escorted the capture of the king of Lu and all the Ming clan vassal kings in the city, and the surrendered civil and military generals in Shandong, plus the plundered hundreds of thousands of Ming people, millions of gold and silver, treasured jewelry, grain and books, with more than 100,000 Eight Banner soldiers slowly returned from the original way.

So far, the Beijing division has been police for the second time, but fortunately, Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Xuanda, and Gao Qiqian, the supervisor of the army, led more than 30,000 elite soldiers to return, and the soldiers and horses of King Qin, who had gathered in Beijing in advance, and the strength of the Ming army near the Beijing division was enough for garrison.

Chongzhen was afraid of the defeat of the field battle, so he issued an edict and strictly ordered all departments to guard the city gate and not to go out of the city to fight. The Qing troops passed by and were not allowed to engage in battle, but ordered the generals to lead the troops behind and recover the lost territory.

A rare burlesque in military history was staged in this way according to the emperor's orders. The commanders of the troops in various places controlled the soldiers and horses, and when the Qing soldiers traveled a hundred miles north, they would catch up with them for dozens of miles behind, and they must keep a half-day distance from the Qing soldiers. At the slightest warning signal, he immediately controlled the troops to retreat, no matter how he dared to fight with the Qing soldiers, he sent the Qing army out of the country with a salute, and sat back and watched the lives of the captured people of the Ming Dynasty die countless on the side of the road!

In a big war, less than ten Qing soldiers were captured, and most of them were scattered, so they fell into the hands of the Ming army, and then went to prison, impersonated local officials, got them out, and sold them to the southeast government.

According to the defeated soldiers who were put back, the southeast army threw bombs indiscriminately when they went into battle, blew up the Qing army's war horses, and then shot indiscriminately, and the bright bayonets forced up, their firearms were very sharp, and they were not afraid of close combat, and dared to fight alone!

You must know that the Ming army is most afraid of close combat with the Qing army, and a dozen Qing troops can catch up with a hundred or so Ming troops, while those southeast armies and the Ming army are both Chinese, but they have completely different combat styles!

There were fewer troops in the Hongzui Fort area, and as a result, they were defeated by the southeastern army and plundered, and when the reinforcements of the Qing army brigade arrived, they took the prisoners unhurriedly and left by boat.

This is bad news, and the good news is that the main focus of the Southeast Province is not in the Ming region, but in the far away Southeast Asia, it will not fight hard with the Qing army.

It's a little depressing!

Huang Taiji's strategy to deal with the Ming Dynasty is very patient, that is, if you want to cut down the big tree, you must first remove its branches, and cut down the branches with an axe, then the big tree can be broken in the end.

Chongzhen entered the customs for the first time in the second year, and the generals of the Eight Banners persuaded him to invade Beijing, Huang Taiji laughed and said: "The idiot in the city is easy to draw, and he breaks the ears of Beijing's trivial matters!" Only the Ming Dynasty is still alive, and it is difficult to deal with the aftermath after the capture of Beijing, so it can be delayed! ”

The Qing army cooperated with the peasant army to constantly destroy the strength of the Ming Dynasty, and the extremely tacit cooperation made the Ming continue to bleed.

The peasant army attacked everywhere, undermining the political, military, and economic power of the Ming Dynasty, attracting a large number of Ming troops to the Central Plains, and spending a lot of gold and silver; Once the peasant army was defeated by the elite of the Ming army such as the Guanning Iron Cavalry and fell into a low ebb, the Qing soldiers outside the pass entered the pass in time, sucking the elite of the Ming army from the battlefield against the peasant uprising to Jifu and outside the pass like a sponge.

Outside the entrance of the Qing army last year, it is foreseeable that the peasant army will rise again in the future, which will be a disaster for the Ming Dynasty!

The Southeast Army was a variable, which made Huang Taiji deeply worried.

What if the main forces of the Southeastern Army go north?

That war has to be fought!

Now that the situation is constantly clear, Huang Taiji assigned Fan Wencheng to be in charge of the intelligence of the Southeast Mansion, this dead traitor has done things effectively, and has completely figured out the matter of the Southeast Army's military aid to Ning Yuanjin and Phi Dao, even if he is not welcomed by Ning Yuanjin's supervisor, he still sends gunpowder, muskets, artillery, food, medicine and silver!

I also learned that the Southeast Army participated in the war to fight the Qing Army before, and it was really possible that Yue Tuo died in their hands.

In addition, Fan Wencheng has sent people to infiltrate Taiwan, but he found that the southeast government was extremely vigilant, which led to the arrest of several stupid spies, Fan Wencheng spent money and couldn't get any decent information, and was scolded by Zhu Baylor.

However, he is still clear about some of the strength of the Southeast Army, with 100,000 troops, it is not a problem, it is a strong enemy, it is a strong enemy!

……

The Sun family was released and sent to Kaohsiung, talking about the incident in Gaoyang that day, the children of the Sun family resisted bravely and died in battle, which made Sun Chengzong cry and hate Qinggou even more.

His hatred turned into work motivation, the elderly in their seventies are more enthusiastic about work than young people, working more than 12 hours a day, checking work and handling affairs everywhere, driving everyone to actively work hard to run errands, so that Xiong Yongmei, who is in charge, ordered them to take vacations, saying that the way of civil and military affairs is a gallop, and the body is the capital of work!

With such a courtier, why don't you have a strong southeastern mansion!
