Chapter 384: Three Days of Presumptuousness
After the banquet, Zhu Cihong stayed in the Qingning Palace where Huang Taiji and Empress Zhezhe lived.
The harem complex of Huang Taiji is very small, and the entire six palaces such as Yongfu Palace and Guan Ju Palace are not as large as the Kunning Palace in the Forbidden City in Beijing, and are more like a large quadrangle.
The battle of Liaodong has ended, but taking Shengjing does not mean the demise of the Manchus, Huang Taiji fled to Fushun, a hundred miles away from Shengjing, Fushun Pass is a vast mountain, the first and second capitals of the Manchu Qing are in the depths of the mountains, about three hundred miles away from Shengjing, and further north, there are thousands of miles of land in the hands of the Manchus.
In the final analysis, Shengjing is just a bridgehead close to the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Cihong is now laying down this large area of land within a radius of hundreds of miles, but his imperial uncle Emperor Tianqi once lost it, and the Salhu and other places lost by the Wanli Emperor are still in the Fushun area.
In the second year after the Battle of Sarhu, Emperor Wanli returned to the west, Emperor Jingtai returned to the west in less than a month, and Emperor Tianqi reigned for seven years, losing Shenyang, Liaoyang, Xipingbao, Yizhou, a large area of land of hundreds of miles, and let Nurhachi go to Ningyuan.
Although Emperor Chongzhen's ability is average, he did not lose much land in Liaodong, and has been guarding the Guanningjin defense line for more than ten years, until the end of the Songjin War before the fall of the Ming Dynasty in history, and only then did he lose the 300 miles of Liaoxi Corridor from Shanhaiguan to Jinzhou.
Zhu Cihong did not intend to take advantage of the victory to pursue, the logistics of the Ming army were almost cut off, the grain and grass were only for half a month's consumption of the army, and it took more than a month for the division to return to the dynasty, and the supply of grain and grass was already very difficult, but fortunately, there were still some grain and grass of the Qing army in Shengjing, which was barely enough.
In the Ming army repaired and celebrated a few days, there was a burst of chickens and dogs inside and outside Shengjing City, Guan Ningjun didn't know whether it was venting or what the reason, looting around, Zhu Cihong not only did not care, but also ordered to allow all departments to be presumptuous for three days.
Shengjing was occupied by the Manchu Qing Dynasty for more than ten years, and the city was inhabited by either the Eight Banners of the nobles or the Manchu or Manchu Han people, there were very few serious Han people, and there were many fields and industries such as the Huangzhuang and the Eight Banners nobles around it.
Zhu Cihong knew that the soldiers fought day after day, and the pressure was very great, and the various departments of the Ming army lacked food and salary, so they could only rely on this method to supplement and vent, but Zhu Cihong also ordered that anything could be done, that is, it was not allowed to rape ** women.
In all dynasties, the army fought abroad, killing and looting everywhere it went, not only was it not a violation of military discipline, but it could also stimulate the blood of the soldiers.
Zhu Cihong felt that if he wanted a woman, even if he took it away, it would be best to distribute it reasonably, and gathering people to have indiscriminate personal relations would not only be ugly, but might also breed sexually transmitted diseases and affect the combat effectiveness of the army......
Historically, after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, it was stipulated in Beijing that the inner Manchu and foreign Hans, that is, the inner city of Beijing were not allowed to have Han people to live, and they were all assigned to the Eight Banners and other meritorious Manchu and Mongolian princes and nobles to live, and some senior Eight Banners Han soldiers could live in.
Some Han Chinese with some wealth and status can only live in the outer city, that is, in an area south of Zhengyangmen.
Zhu Cihong would not insist on the Manchu and Han families, at least until the Manchu Qing Dynasty was completely destroyed, he would not treat the Tartars as his own, and he even issued an order to expel all the bannermen in Shengjing City and renamed Shengjing Shenyang.
After the order was issued, all the departments of the Ming army were overjoyed, and even Wu Sangui and others had nothing to say, and they started to rob in a hurry.
The various departments of the Tianwu Army repaired as usual, and did not participate in the carnival, the military discipline of the "Seven Killings Order" has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, even if the enemy's family members are not guilty, they are not interested in doing it, and they are even a little shameless.
Especially when they saw the red-eyed Guan Ning Army, the soldiers of the Tianwu Army despised them in their hearts, and the heroes did not show their ability to kill the enemy on the battlefield, but they shook their prestige here.
In recent days, Zhu Cihong went to every military camp of the Tianwu Army and had a meal with the soldiers, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Li Tingbiao personally presented the jade seal of the heirloom country, Zhu Cihong was surprised and looked through it carefully for a while, and when he saw the words "Treasure of the Decree" written on it in Han seal, he smashed it to the ground in public.
Everyone was shocked, not knowing what the crown prince meant, Zhu Cihong said bluntly: "This fake is boundless!" ”
The jade seal of the country is engraved by Li Si, the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, by the order of the first emperor, with the He's bi, four inches in circumference, five dragons on New York, and the bottom is engraved with eight seal characters written by Li Si himself: ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang.
It means that I am the Son of Heaven, ruling the world on behalf of God, and since God has granted me supreme authority, I have to ensure that I will always enjoy the country and the fortune of the country will always be prosperous.
Later dynasties regarded this jade seal used by Qin Shi Huang as the certificate of the orthodox emperor, as a token of imperial power and legitimacy, and it became a jade seal for the country.
Those who ascended to the throne and did not pass on the jade seal of the country were despised by the world as the "white version of the emperor", which also led to the fact that those who wanted to seek the throne of the emperor in the past dynasties fought for me, and the jade seal of the country changed hands repeatedly.
According to Zhu Cihong's familiarity with the history books, when Wang Mang usurped the throne in the late Western Han Dynasty, he once asked the Queen Mother for the jade seal of the country, but was chased and smashed by the Queen Mother with the jade seal, and even the jade seal was shattered.
In the period of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the last emperor of the Later Tang Dynasty, Li Congkeju and the Empress Dowager Cao, burned themselves in the Xuanwu Tower, and the jade seals of the country disappeared, and the jade seals that appeared since then are all fakes.
The jade seal obtained by Zhu Cihong obviously did not have a corner of the gold inlay, and the words were not the same, and even the counterfeiting was so inferior, how could he not be angry? Come to the scene on the spot to fight fakes.
After the holiday, Zhu Cihong did not take the matter of passing on the jade seal to heart, and began to convene Hong Chengchou and other major civil and military officials to discuss the return of the squad to the dynasty and the aftermath of Liaodong's garrison.
There are many things that need to be dealt with after the war, before Zhu Cihong sent troops to attack everywhere, and captured nearly tens of thousands of Qing soldiers and soldiers in the surrounding area, as well as a large number of family members of the Eight Banners.
Most of these soldiers were the Han soldiers of the Eight Banners who fled, such as Cui Xiang, who was forced to be pulled into the banner of the Han army, and some of them were banner men.
Due to the large number of people and the fact that the Ming army killed enough prisoners, Zhu Cihong did not kill them, but he did not let them go, and dealt with the Liukou soldiers in Fengyang Mansion with a routine, so that they shaved their heads to accept transformation and engage in post-war reconstruction work.
Zhu Cihong handed over this important work to Hong Chengchou and the good slave Zhu Youneng, Hong Chengchou, as the governor of Jiliao, should have handled this kind of matter.
Zhu Youneng stayed in Liaodong, which was decided after careful consideration by Zhu Cihong, and in the battle of Shengjing, Zhu Youneng and Zhou Xingyao's cottage Zhenghuang Banner Eight Banners mainly attacked the north gate, and the casualties were not small.
Zhu Cihong left them in Liaodong, which is equivalent to setting up a nail in Liaodong, in addition to these two people, he also plans to leave a Tianwu army to be stationed in Liaodong to prevent the Manchu Qing counterattack, and at the same time monitor and guard against the people and horses of the Liaodong family.
