Huang Taiji smiled, and the whole person was drunk.

Suddenly, someone called softly, "Emperor", Huang Taiji woke up in a daze, saw that it was Fan Wencheng, and hurriedly asked, "Are all four of them here?" ”

If it weren't for his repeated instructions before, Fan Wencheng really couldn't bear to disturb him at this time, listened to his question, nodded and said: "Prince Rui Dolgon, Prince Yu Duoduo, Yingjun King Azige, Prince Su Haoge are all waiting in the apse. ”

Huang Taiji said "oh", didn't speak, turned around and walked quickly into the apse.

Before the four of them could get rid of their excitement, they were called here, and they were inexplicably busy saluting when they saw him come in.

Huang Taiji accepted the salute calmly and said, "Sit down, Fan Zhangjing also sit." ”

The five sat down separately according to the order, and he said: "Although the Great Qing Kingdom has been established and the goal has been determined, but the people are self-aware, and to be honest, the gap between us and the Ming Dynasty is not small, and we need to slowly narrow the gap with them, and then seize the opportunity to hit it with one blow."

At the moment, there are two things that must be done immediately. First, since the country has been established, it must refer to the Ming Dynasty to improve the relevant system as soon as possible. Why do we say reference? The system of the Ming Dynasty lasted more than 200 years and should have been effective.

However, we must not copy it, because the yamen and officials are all set up for the sake of things, and there are as many yamen and officials as there are things, and we must not set up things for the sake of people, and if people are superficial and do not talk about things, it is easy to arouse the disgust of the common people. This matter was done by me and Fan Zhangjing.

Second, although we are basically able to provide for ourselves, other materials, such as cloth, are still in short supply, so we must not let our soldiers fight bare-chested.

Therefore, I decided to enter the fortress three times, which can be regarded as a kind of celebration of the founding of the Qing Dynasty. It's up to you to take care of it, talk about it. ”

"That's what a good thing." Thinking secretly, the four looked at each other and said, "Obey the emperor's orders." ”

Huang Taiji nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, let's talk about your strategy." ”

Prince Rui Dolgon said: "The old way, anyway, it's not the first time we've been there. ”

When Prince Yu Duoduo and Prince Su Haoge heard this, they hurriedly echoed it.

Azig, the king of Yingjun, said suddenly: "Now that our goal has been determined, we must try our best to avoid fighting a battle like the Daling River, which consumes too much and achieves nothing."

My opinion is that if we do not attack the fortifications, we should choose the weak links to quietly break into the Great Wall, and then in the Gyeonggi region of the Ming Dynasty, in the order of north, southwest, southeast, and northeast, one by one, and wait for the Ming court to react, we may have returned with a full load. ”

When the three of them heard him mention Da Linghe, they couldn't help but feel nervous, and looked at Huang Taiji worriedly.

Huang Taiji's face actually smiled, and he asked, "What if, what if you encounter the Ming army?" ”

Azig paused for a moment, and then said: "As far as I know, although the defense of the Gyeonggi region of the Ming Dynasty is stronger than in the past, it is still not a matter of concern, I can divide the army into two routes, one way to suppress it strongly, and the other way to just act according to the plan."

If the Ming army comes to fight, the one that is strongly suppressed will be dealt a blow to buy time for the other way; If the Ming army is still on the verge of collapse as in the past, it will make a plan to implement it on both sides. ”

Huang Taiji said: "Okay, it seems that you have not interrupted the study of the Ming Dynasty, this time you will be in charge, you are right, since the goal has been determined, do not do unnecessary consumption, the method can be more flexible." ”

Azig was about to give thanks to the order, and he turned to Dolgon and the other three, and said: "You are feigning to attack the passes of the Ming Dynasty in order to contain the Ming army. If the Ming army dares to return to the division to rescue, you will take advantage of the situation to make meritorious contributions. ”

After speaking, he stood up and said: "You wait and remember, this is the first time that the Qing Dynasty has entered the fortress since the founding of the country, and I will give you two months to prepare, so you must return triumphantly." ”

Since Liu Zongzhou was dismissed as a citizen, Chongzhen often remembers his stubborn appearance coldly, and even Chongzhen himself can't tell why.

Thanks to Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng, there were constant good news, so they diluted it a little.

On this day, Chongzhen remembered it again inexplicably, and couldn't help but sigh: "Alas, my enemies are not only Tongnu and Liukou, aren't they counted?"

If not, why do they keep attacking my policies? Hmph, people's hearts are to be unified, and it is even more hateful to confuse people's hearts like this. ”

Thinking about it, I couldn't avoid hatred in my heart, and when I saw a eunuch hurriedly come in, I said impatiently: "What's the matter?" ”

The eunuch listened, hurriedly walked a few steps, and when he got closer, he knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, after Emperor Taiji of Tongnu ascended the throne of the Qing Emperor in April, we will secretly supervise the movements of Tongnu according to the emperor's holy decree, and there is no change except for applying for peace.

In July, the Qing soldiers broke into the Xifeng Pass, and the imperial envoy Wang Zhaokun stirred the crowd to go to the palace, lost the enemy, and retired to Changping. was besieged, and the eunuch Wang Xizhong, the chief military officer Chao Pichang, the head of the household department Wang Yigui and Zhao Yue, and the governor of Baoding, sentenced Wang Yuzuo to guard the door.

There were 2,000 reductions for the internal response, the city was broken, and Zhaokun was killed by four arrows and two blades. Pichang surrendered. Yigui, Yue, Yu Zuo, Xizhong and the judge Hu Weizhong, the official Guo Yong, Xuezheng Xie Huailiang, the instructor Changshi, and the garrison Xianzhenji all died. Yu Zuozi also died from his father.

After capturing Changping, the Qing army came to Tianshou Mountain and set fire to Xizong's Deling Mausoleum, but fortunately, the fire was not too big and did not spread to other imperial tombs. The Qing army then attacked Gonghua City in Shahe, Changping to the west, but Gonghua City was equipped with many artillery, and the defender Jiang Xuan bombarded it fiercely, so the Qing army did not succeed.

This time the Qing army was different from the past, in the past, it was mainly attacked in the north, but this time it was unscrupulous, and it rushed to the south, even breaking Wen'an, Yongqing, Dingxing and other places in the south of the country, and the former Guanglu Temple Shaoqing Lu Jishan refused to take off his clothes to the Qing soldiers and was killed.

Now the people in the city are panicking, prices are soaring, and the rice is 300 yuan ......"

Hearing this, Chongzhen interrupted him and said: "It is Liang Tingdong's territory that the Qing soldiers passed through, and Liang Tingdong is directly responsible for this, and ordered him to quickly come to the rescue.

In addition, he ordered Wang Pu, the general soldier of Datong, Wang Zhong, the chief soldier of Shanxi, and the fierce tiger, Dong Wenyong, the chief soldier of Baoding, Zu Dashou, the chief soldier of Jinzhou, and Zu Dale and Li Chongzhen of the Liao army who suppressed the Kou in Shaanxi to quickly enter the defense of Beijing. In addition, Lu Xiangsheng, the prime minister of the five provinces, ordered him to come to King Qin, and his post as prime minister was temporarily replaced by Wang Jiazhen, the left attendant of the Ministry of War. “

After that, he paused, turned to the courtiers and said: "When these people arrive, the Jingshi can be safe, the question is, can we hold out until they arrive, judging from the current soaring prices, I am really worried, I don't know if you Aiqing has a good plan?" “

When the courtiers heard the news, they panicked at first, but when they saw Chongzhen, they were much calmer than the previous times, and they also calmed down and talked nonsense.

Hou Sui, the head of the household department, proposed to severely crack down on profiteers hoarding Juqi to stabilize prices; Tang Shiji, the imperial history of the left capital, suggested that people should be hired exceptionally; Zhu Daqi, the squire of the Criminal Department, asked to set up camp outside the city before he could defend it; In the middle of the matter, Yan Jizu asked to adopt the old, young, sick and disabled people in Beijing.

Chongzhen listened, his brows furrowed, and before he could speak, a eunuch hurriedly came in and said: "Your Majesty, the marshal of the Qing army, Azige, ordered a letter to be sent by someone, saying that Heiyunlong, the deputy general of the Beijing camp, has surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and is ready to cooperate with him to seize the capital. “

Chongzhen was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "He took me as a three-year-old child, after Heiyunlong, the former chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, was captured, he fled back in front of the Changshan Formation, the Qing army hated it to the bone, and he wanted to kill him quickly, hmph, even if it is serious, how can there be any reason to inform us?"

Go, tell Heiyunlong, don't be burdened, just kill the enemy with peace of mind and make meritorious contributions, and say that I believe him, if the opportunity is right, I might as well lure him and kill him. “

Chongzhen's expectation was good, Azig couldn't use the plan, so he had to stop mentioning it, just said that Chongzhen's voice just fell, and a eunuch came in and said: "Your Majesty, the Qing soldiers broke through Tianjin Baodi today, and Zhao Guoding, the county magistrate, was killed." “

When the courtiers heard this, they squinted at Zhang Fengyi and said: "This kind of affairs should have been handled by the Ministry of War, but the Ministry of War was incompetent, and sat back and watched the monarch's father be anxious and rebel against slaves. “

Zhang Fengyi pretended to be sick and escaped death, and saw that Chongzhen was indifferent to him, where did he dare to say more?

When he got to this situation, he secretly glanced at Chongzhen, but seeing that Chongzhen was also looking at him coldly, he mustered up the courage to step forward and said: "This matter of the military department, please go to the front line to supervise the division in person to retreat from the Qing army." “

"Shame and courage, maybe this time he can really defeat the Qing soldiers." Thinking secretly, Chongzhen said: "Quasi, I will give you Shang Fang Sword, allocate a reward of 10,000 silver, and reward 500 cards."

At the same time, he ordered Gao Qiqian, the eunuch who monitored Guanning, to be the director, and commanded Zu Dashou, the chief soldier of Liaodong, and Zhang Shijie, the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, to go south to reinforce Bazhou.

In order to encourage Zu Dashou to fight bravely, Zu Dashou was given the title of commander, and 30,000 rewards and 1,000 rewards were allocated to Gao Qiqian. ”
