Chapter 318: Lifeline (First Update, Ask for Subscription)

Disappointed!

When this "touch" on both sides of the Qinghe River outside Gaizhou City ended without danger or danger, Zhu Guoqiang was just a little disappointed, but for Huang Taiji, who had just crossed the river and arrived in Yizhou, he was extremely disappointed when he learned the news.

"Oops, it's a big loss!"

After the messenger left, Huang Taiji couldn't help but complain.

"In the past, I only knew that Fourteen could endure it, but I never thought that this De Shizi could also endure it, if he could seize the opportunity to severely damage Fourteen in Qinghe......"

Perhaps, I can send troops from Phoenix City and cut off his back road, and then the Great Qing Kingdom will still be the Great Qing Kingdom of the past!

In fact, I also planned to do so at the beginning, otherwise why would I endure so much humiliation?

But what disappointed Huang Taiji was that not only did Fourteen not do it, but even De Shizi didn't do it.

Your family is a lord who can endure the humiliation of your crotch...... Looking at the emperor who shook his head and sighed softly, Fan Wencheng thought so in his heart.

Even if it's in the history books, like your Aixinjue Luo family, there are really few people, your father can endure it, you can endure it, and your brother is too...... Hey, what a masterpiece in the world!

"Mr. Fan, why did you say that Fourteen would strike the army?"

Huang Taiji said with some disappointment.

"That idiot Azig lost almost 5,000 soldiers...... He should at least have a call with Zhu Ciying! ”

The only news that made Huang Taiji feel better, I'm afraid it was this news, at least Dolgon lost thousands of soldiers and horses, even if those people were soldiers of the Great Qing Kingdom, but ...... They are Dorgon's soldiers!

Dolgon's strength has weakened, but it's better than he has grown!

Fan Wencheng, who was originally thinking about it, listened to the emperor's question and hurriedly replied.

"Your Majesty, Prince Rui is now under more than 30,000 soldiers and horses, even if he can make the grassland let Chahar and others submit to him, at most there are only 50,000 soldiers and horses, and the emperor's side is still similar in terms of soldiers and horses, but Prince Rui's ambition will definitely not be satisfied with such a few soldiers and horses, so, in the opinion of the minister, Prince Rui will definitely join Chahar's north to annex the three Khalkha tribes in Mobei, and refer to Chahar and other departments to enter the Mongolian Eight Banners, so ......"

Fan Wencheng's words made Huang Taiji nod quite approvingly, how could he not know that the Khalkha Mongols, as early as five years ago, that is, in the ninth year of Tiancong, the Tushetu Khan, Zasaktu Khan, Chechen Khan of the Khalkha Third Department established contact with the Qing Dynasty, and sent a letter to the Houjin Tonghao. In the three years of Chongde, the three Khalkha departments "sent envoys to the court", and each year they paid "one white camel, eight white horses, and nine white tributes".

However, they did not surrender completely, just like Korea, only superficially, but it is certain that Dolgon will certainly not miss the opportunity to annex them. After all, this is the only option to strengthen yourself.

Fourteen!

I am afraid that your patience is also for this purpose!

"If he gets his wish, he can get at least 300,000 households and 100,000 Mongol troops!"

In fact, Huang Taiji has also coveted the Khalkha Sanbu for a long time, and the only thing that worries him is that the strength of the Sanbu is too strong, the population is too large, and if he eats it in one bite, will it shake the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, which seems to be a bit conservative now.

If he had included Mongolia in the Great Qing Dynasty earlier, he might not have had so many problems as he has now. Even he now has the opportunity to enter the Central Plains.

But what's the use of regretting it now?

After thinking about it, he said again.

"However, I do think that he should first send troops north to conquer the Jurchens in Heilongjiang, Ussuri and other places, and there are no less than 30,000 or 40,000 Jurchens in these places...... Two to three years ......"

Looking up at the paper window, Huang Taiji sighed.

"If you calculate it this way, our time is still a little tight!"

Turning his head to look at Fan Wencheng, Huang Taiji asked.

"If the plan goes well, Fan Wencheng, do you think it is possible for us to take North Korea for our use?"

Just as Mongolia was to Dolgon, Joseon was also extremely important to Huang Taiji.

Although he personally led the troops to attack North Korea four years ago, forcing North Korea to become a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty, but North Korea only provided 10,000 horses of fine cloth and 10,000 bags of rice every year.

Dolgon can use the grain looted from the Ming Dynasty, and the looted Ming people are slaves to farm for him, but Huangtaiji does not have it, and the Phoenix City itself is not an agricultural area, and the farms are pitiful, how can so many people and horses be fed? In fact, when he decided to withdraw from Liaoyang, he had already set his sights on North Korea!

And unlike the last time, which was just to make North Korea submit, this time he was going to conquer North Korea! Why conquer Korea? Since it is to raise soldiers and appease the morale of the army, after all, many of them lost their families, farms, wives and children when Deshizi invaded the border, and what the Ming people snatched away is now snatched from North Korea!

In fact, this is also the most critical step in the rise of the Jianzhou Jurchens - constantly snatching and annexing the weak, and then challenging the strong! Now, since the Ming army is stronger, let's swallow North Korea too!

"Your Majesty, why is it difficult to accept North Korea for my use? After arriving in Seoul, the first Xingshi asked for the crime and seized the country, and then issued a "shaving order" to make it easy to shave his hair, so as to distinguish between obedience and rebellion, and get rid of those who are "stubborn" as soon as possible, and then kill them with their wives and daughters, so that the army's heart can be stabilized, and North Korea can also be used by me! ”

When standing in front of the emperor and making these suggestions, Fan Wencheng didn't feel any discomfort at all, and when Jin seized Liaodong that year, didn't he also use shaving to distinguish between good and bad? At that time, he didn't delve into the reason, but now it seems that it is nothing more than shaving their hair to distinguish between good and bad, and if those who don't want to shave their hair are killed, they can no longer suffer from the Qing Dynasty, as for their families, they just reward the big guys, how good is this......

Not to mention, even Fan Wencheng was eager to go to North Korea with the emperor and accept a few North Korean concubines.

"Well, that's true......"

Nodding, Huang Taiji pondered for a moment before saying.

"Dolgon wants to conquer Heilongjiang, at least for three or five years, he will never be my enemy, the only thing to worry about is ......"

Hearing the emperor say this, Fan Wencheng sneered.

"The emperor is too worried, the slave thinks that within three or five years, the son of De will not come to commit the crime, the hundreds of thousands of aha he plundered from our Qing Dynasty always need to be resettled, plus the hundreds of thousands of troops under his command, so many people eat, drink and live, I don't know how much energy it will cost him, without a few years, he will definitely not be able to take root, before the root is not stable, he will not act rashly, the emperor, the slave thinks that now Manchuria is actually a Three Kingdoms, Dolgon, De Shizi, and us, all we need is to recuperate and expand our strength, Whoever wants to win, it depends on who recovers first, but, in the eyes of the minions, in the end, it must be the emperor who has the last laugh, after all, there are four million people in North Korea, that is, one million are killed, and there are three million left, with these three million people driven by the emperor, why worry about the great cause! ……”

Fan Wencheng's analysis made Huang Taiji nod his head thoughtfully, he is familiar with "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and he is very aware of the current environment, and the current Manchuria is not a Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The key is to see who can have the last laugh.

"Hey, Dolgon......"

Saying his name, Huang Taiji snorted coldly.

"If it weren't for Dolgon's ambition and intention to usurp the throne, how could I have made an expedition to Korea, and how could I sit back and watch the son of Deshi take root in Lushun Jinzhou, and my Great Qing Kingdom ended up in such a field today, in the final analysis, it was all caused by his Dolgon's ambitions, and I would stay in the future...... Hum! ”

After sneering several times one after another, Huang Taiji did not continue.

"However, Fan Wencheng, you said that if I annex North Korea this time, if North Korea asks De Shizi for help, will he send troops to help North Korea?"

"Your Majesty, North Korea is already a vassal of my Great Qing Dynasty, and he wants to ask for aid to the Ming Kingdom, in what name does he ask for help? The only concern is whether he will take the initiative to help. ”
