Chapter 398: Shunzhi's Gamble (Fourteenth Update!) Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass! )
Shandong sent a report to the Beijing Division, and Shunzhi was suspicious when he saw it.
While this may seem like good news, how can it be so wrong when you think about it?
If it was really a big victory, why didn't Dengzhou take it?
He carefully finished my recital, and it clearly smacked of exculpating Jixiha.
This dog minion! What kind of ecstasy was poured into Mr. Ning, and even Mr. Ning was excusing him!
In fact, after the defeat of Jixiha last time, Shunzhi wanted to punish this person, but Fan Wencheng repeatedly pleaded with Shunzhi to give up.
I never thought that this time I would cover it up for Ji Xiha.
What is this minion's ability to make both gentlemen speak for him?
Ning Wan said in his recital that although the Qing army made further progress in Dengzhou after taking Laizhou, it still had to send reinforcements if it wanted to completely take Dengzhou.
Shunzhi was so angry that he wanted to smash things, and he couldn't take down more than 100,000 people sent before and after Denglai, and he even needed reinforcements.
Is it true that the army of the Qing Dynasty is endless?
Shunzhi immediately ordered Xuan Fan Wencheng to enter the palace and discuss countermeasures together.
After all, it was Fan Wencheng's idea to ask Ning Wan to go to Shandong, and now that the situation is deadlocked, Shunzhi can only ask Fan Wencheng for advice.
If you want to say that Fan Wencheng's frequency of entering the palace these days is extremely high, he almost lives in the palace.
His old arms and legs really can't withstand a few tosses, but he also knows that the emperor's summons will not be a trivial matter. Therefore, he did not dare to delay, changed into court clothes and entered the palace with the eunuch.
All the way to the Qianqing Palace, Fan Wencheng shook his robe and resolutely walked into the palace.
Shunzhi was sulking in the warm pavilion, and when he saw Fan Wencheng coming, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Mr. Fan is here, I am about to die." ”
Fan Wencheng hurriedly saluted and said, "I am ashamed to be such a great gift to Your Majesty." ”
Shunzhi shook his head and said, "I have long said that Mr. Fan does not have to stick to these etiquettes. Come on, give Mr. Fan a seat. ”
Compared with Ning Wan, Shunzhi has always trusted Fan Wencheng more, and trusted him to the point of almost obeying his words.
At this juncture, he naturally relies on Fan Wencheng very much.
"Your Majesty, I don't know what you are doing when you summon your ministers into the palace?"
"Alas, this is a report from Shandong, sir, take a look."
Shunzhi was very reluctant to hand the report to Fan Wencheng.
Fan Wencheng knew that something was wrong when he looked at the state of the branches, so he hurriedly unfolded the report and looked at it.
After reading a few lines, Fan Wencheng realized in his heart.
This look is Ning Wan's handiwork.
He really knows Ning Wan and me too well, including his writing style, Fan Wencheng can understand it at a glance.
This is clearly covering up for Jixiha.
In fact, I have always been very particular about how to write war reports.
Generally speaking, a small victory can be written as a big victory, a small defeat can be written as a small victory, and if it is a big defeat, it can be written as a small defeat.
If you are lucky enough to win a big victory, then you will naturally boast about it, and completely annihilate the enemy army to the point where there is no armor left.
When Fan Wencheng saw that I had finished writing about a tragic victory, he understood that the Qing army should actually be defeated, and the defeat was very complete.
Although it is not to the point of annihilation, it is also the kind of vitality that is greatly damaged.
No wonder Emperor Shunzhi is so angry, no one can bear it.
Why is this Shandong so difficult to fight?
Fan Wencheng was puzzled.
If Fan Wencheng, the thief in the south, can still understand, but this Shandong is just some local thieves making trouble, why can't Ji Xiha even handle this?
Did the Qing army become weaker, or did the Ming army become stronger?
Of course, Fan Wencheng didn't know about the reinforcements of the Tiger Army and the Zheng Family Army, and he didn't know that the combat power of the Chixin Battalion was almost equal to that of the Qi Family Army back then, but he simply considered it from the perspective of the rogue rabble, and felt that as long as the Qing army combined to strike together, they could be beaten to pieces.
Of course, this is not the case, so Fan Wencheng's judgment is also biased.
"In my opinion, what should I do now?"
Shunzhi has obviously completely messed up. He was only in his early twenties, and he didn't have much ability, but he had a big temper.
When encountering difficult things to solve, he habitually pushed them to old ministers like Fan Wencheng, and he had no responsibility at all.
"This..."
Fan Wencheng is actually very entangled, this matter is beyond the scope of his cognition.
It stands to reason that Ning Wan is also a poisoner, why can't the situation be controlled?
"According to the ministers, it is not impossible to reinforce Shandong, but it must be guaranteed to be able to take Shandong in one fell swoop. Therefore, this time, the minister did not recommend that the Green Battalion be transferred again, but the main force of the Eight Banners was transferred to quell the rebellion. ”
Although Fan Wencheng did not know the composition of the Shandong Ming army, judging from the fact that Ji Xiha returned twice, their strength was definitely not ordinary.
This is not a problem that the Green Battalion can solve, and the 10,000 Eight Banners of Jixiha alone cannot suppress the field.
If you want to send reinforcements, you have to send the main force of the Eight Banners, not one or two thousand, and you have to send more than half of the Eight Banners soldiers to Shandong.
When the break is constantly reversed, the long pain is better than the short pain.
Fan Wencheng has already thought clearly, no matter what the cost, Shandong must also be pacified.
Otherwise, the world will follow suit, and the Qing Dynasty will lose control of the north in a short time.
"What does Mr. Fan mean to transfer the Eight Banners of the Gong Guard Division?"
Shunzhi's mouth was as big as a goose egg, and he swallowed and foamed: "Is Mr. Fan serious?" So what if something happens to Jingshi, what should I do? ”
"It is enough for the capital to leave 10,000 or 20,000 people to guard the town. The people here have been ruled for the longest time, and they have already respected the Qing Dynasty, and they will be fine. ”
After the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the capital was set in Beijing, and it was also the first batch of people to implement the shaving order.
The people here are not as aggressive as those who were conquered later, and they live only for three meals a day, and it is impossible for them to rebel against the Qing Dynasty.
In Fan Wencheng's view, of course, there is an element of gambling, but the probability of losing the bet is negligible.
If Shandong is left alone, it will be too late to regret it when the world becomes a spark and a prairie fire.
"Let me think again."
Although Shunzhi did not have any courage, he also understood why Fan Wencheng suggested that the Eight Banners be transferred to Shandong.
At the moment, the one with combat effectiveness is the Eight Banners, and those green battalion soldiers can only fight a tailwind battle, and it is not enough to fight a tough battle at all!
It's really hard.
Shunzhi really wanted to recover Shandong, but he was worried that the Eight Banners would be unstable once the Beijing division left.
It's not necessarily the people who are in turmoil, but what if there are restless people in the court who have ideas?
Dolgon has been dead for a long time, but there are other forces.
Shunzhi always felt that his throne was not very stable, and often slept until midnight and woke up.
With such gains and losses, the whole person will be stunned.
caught up with the Ming army and the chaos in Shandong, which really made people want to find a piece of tofu and kill them.
Shunzhi stood up and paced in the warm pavilion with his hands behind his back.
He would do this for a few laps whenever he was hesitant.
Liangjiu Shunzhi stopped and said in a deep voice: "That's it, I will transfer half of the Eight Banners to Shandong." This time, if Ji Xiha can't take Dengzhou again, I will take off his head! ”
