Chapter 332: Northern Hunting

"Drive, drive......"

A new day arrives, and the bright red sun rises over the eastern horizon. The morning light sprinkled on the surface of the Lugou River in Lingling, south of Yanjing City, seemed to be a little bit of broken gold. The surface of the river fluctuated, and the golden light shimmered in the microwaves.

A fast horse took advantage of the clear light of the morning light and galloped to the camp in the south of the city.

"Quick, I want to see the prince, I want to see the prince."

The Han army banner guarding the gate stopped the men and horses, and the rider planted the whole person directly from the horse. The officer guarding the door did not recognize the man's face, but he recognized the sign that the man had pulled out of his arms, and he was startled. Even asked people to bring water, poured a few mouthfuls of the rider, and let the rider set up a big tent that sent Kong Youde directly.

Kong Youde had already gotten up at this hour, he was not yet half a hundred years old, and he was in good health, and he was as startled as the gatekeeper when he saw the person coming, because he knew this person, this person was Sun Long's former guard in Tongzhou.

And Sun Long is not only his confidant, but his grandson Yanling is also the son-in-law chosen by Kong Youde for his daughter. This can be said to be the humerus that is both damaged and prosperous with the Kong family.

"Lord Wang, I'm afraid Tongzhou won't be successful. Zheng Thief exerted his strength at night and easily broke the two lines of defense outside the city, leaving only the last line of defense remaining. However, Zheng Zhilong made people dig tunnels overnight, and after dawn, he would inevitably launch a fierce attack on Tongzhou. Once the few fortresses on the periphery are firmly defended, and only one Tongzhou City remains, how can Prince Su be able to defend it? ”

Sun Long is really Kong Youde's confidant, and it was easy to struggle for his life from the second layer of the tunnel, and as soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, he immediately sent someone to report it.

Kong Youde frowned when he heard this, and he could kill the green-headed fly.

If this Tongzhou is not good, can Yanjing City still be good?

However, at this time, it is absolutely impossible to send troops to reinforce Tongzhou, so it is better to prepare to fight as soon as possible. Prince Naying's horse team doesn't know when it will arrive.

Dolgon, who got the news a quarter of an hour earlier than Kong Youde, changed his face greatly, he had seen the layout of the position outside Tongzhou City with his own eyes, such a huge trench area, there were still plenty of troops in the city, and most of it would be lost overnight, how could this be?

But that's just the way it is. It was impossible for him to receive false information.

And this news quickly spread in Yanjing City.

"This is the work of two people?" Dorgon asked, looking at the two tabloids in front of him, which were completely different from those printed.

"The minions are incompetent and have failed to capture these rats. I only know that one is Jinyiwei's people, and the other should be Zheng Zhilong's people. As far as the minions know, Zheng Zhilong's subordinate is called Black Ice Platform, which is very mysterious. ”

"Incompetent things, a group of rats and sparrows can't catch them, what's the use of this king asking you? If you don't go down to find them and rescue them one by one, sooner or later this king will tear them apart! ”

Dolgon's anger poured out on Fan Yongdou's head, and scolded Fan Yongdou for a bloody sprinkler.

The latter was submissive, did not dare to defend a word, and left Prince Rui's mansion with a disgraced face.

"Father......" Fan Sanpao was already waiting outside the palace, watching Fan Yongdou withdraw with a disgraced face, and hurriedly greeted him.

Fan Yongdou didn't say a word, shook his head, waved his hand, and went home first.

As Fan Yongdou's son and subordinate, Fan Sanpao certainly knew what his father's disgraced appearance was for. I didn't say a word at the next time, and went back to Fan's Mansion first.

Today's Fan Yongdou is still the deputy head of the Tartar Internal Affairs Office, but in essence, he has no real power in the Internal Affairs Office, and is more of an errand of 'brocade clothes'! Who told the Fan family to send the news in such a timely manner before, Fan Yongdou naturally became an insider in the minds of Dolgon and others. And after Fan Yongdou took over the errand, he did a really good job.

For example, rebellion and lurking, then it is very well done.

Select some women with outstanding appearance and cultural foundation from the banner of the Han army, train them, send them to Jinling, and through the Zhangtai Chu Pavilion, it is easy to send these women to some people's mansions. Because the scholar is a long-standing tradition, especially in the Ming Dynasty, it has been played with new tricks.

The story that the literati and the girl in the Qinglou have to say, it is not too much.

For example, right now, Qian Qianyi and Gong Dingyu have accepted famous women into the house, not to mention that there are nobles like Zhu Guobi among their colleagues. You can see how 'free' this atmosphere is.

It simply gave Fan Yongdou a great opportunity.

These women have an excellent foundation, their appearance and figure are all romantic, and the significance of meeting the physiological needs of "literati" is one thing, and more importantly, it can satisfy their aesthetic taste and cultural feelings.

That is to say, in addition to physiology, there is also psychology, which provides great spiritual pleasure and comfort for the goal, and brings haunting aesthetic expectations.

Naturally, they have become the proud people of the target back house.

With these pillows blowing in the wind, Fan Yongdou only has this one, and he doesn't know how much useful information he can collect for Tartar every day.

Fan Yongdou himself did a really good job.

However, the success in this area cannot hide the weakness of Fan Yongdou and others on the issue of internal purge.

Relying on money and women, Fan Yongdou can pull more and more people into the water and get more and more valuable and reliable information, but it is really difficult for him to turn his head and go to his own field to catch moths.

"Son, in the future, you have to get along with Mr. Long and them. You also need to know more about what kind of God Xiyi has done. ”

In the Fan family's study, as soon as Fan Yongdou said this, Fan Sanpao felt cold in his heart.

"Father, this great halal is going to ......"

Fan Yongdou shook his head, "The Qing Dynasty is about to end, and that is not now." However, people who have no long-term worries must have near-term worries, and they must learn to plan for rainy days. ”

He often taught his children and grandchildren to learn from rabbits, because rabbits have three more homes.

"Yes, my son understands."

Fan Sanpai agreed simply, and it was not difficult for him to do this. Several times with the Dutch, it was the path of Majiadao, and he himself had a lot of connections with the Xiyi.

Now that he has turned to get along with the Xiyi and believes in the Jingjiao, it will not arouse the suspicion of others.

No one would know that the loyal Fan family of the Qing Dynasty is now looking for a new way out.

Don't blame Fan Yongdou for Qin Duchu, it's really bad news one after another, this is like the years when Emperor Chongzhen was just the emperor, Daming obviously hasn't fallen to the bottom, and Emperor Chongzhen still holds a lot of hole cards in his palm. But the final victor is Li Zicheng and the Qing Dynasty, but it will not be the Ming Dynasty.

Today's Manchu Qing is like the Ming Dynasty of the past......

Fan Yongdou is not attached to the Zheng family, Zheng Zhilong shouted and shouted to kill the eight major merchants, and set them on the same level as Wu Sangui and Kong Youde, they are all traitors and thieves, and everyone will be punished, which really makes Fan Yongdou flattered.

But he also knew that he still had the entire Fan family, and it would not be good under Zheng Zhilong. So I gave up my mind for a long time.

Otherwise, if he played a double agent for Dolgon, wouldn't it be difficult at all?

And at this moment in Yanjing City, the person who has raised his heart in his heart is really not Fan Yongdou.

Kunning Palace, East Warm Pavilion.

"The slave respectfully invites the Queen Mother to serve the royal north hunt!" Represented by Wu Keshan, a group of Mongolian nobles knelt and shouted in unison.

As the bad news of Tongzhou spread further, they finally couldn't hold their breath, because the significance represented by Bumu Butai and the little emperor of Shunzhi was too important for Monan Mongolia.

At present, Zheng Zhilong has the momentum to devour Tongzhou in one bite, and then sweep Yanjing.

Although Wu Keshan and the others also knew that Dolgon still had a general army in Yanjing, the number of Eight Banners armor soldiers here was much higher than that of Tongzhou.

Even if Zheng Zhilong wins Tongzhou, he may not be able to win Yanjing.

However, the dangers contained in this period cannot be ignored by anyone.

This may not be a battle that will decide the life and death of the Manchu Dynasty, but it is definitely a turning point in the future fate of the Manchu Dynasty!

Bumu Butai looked at his brother Wu Keshan who was kneeling at his feet, and really wanted to throw him into the ice cellar to be sober and sober, in this situation, when the big victory was undecided, how could she go to the North Hunt?

Where are the soldiers who are still fighting?

What is it in his brother's head? Didn't they know that doing so would greatly affect the morale of the Qing army?

"What is there to influence? What's so scary? Queen Mother, could they go north hunting at this juncture? ”

Coming out of the Forbidden City, Wu Keshan looked embarrassed that he hadn't been reprimanded by his sister for half of his face, and he was very leisurely.

"However, the current Qing Dynasty is no longer the Qing Dynasty of the past, and our Southern Mongolia should not be the original Southern Mongolia."

As a branch with a certain degree of autonomy, when the group headquarters suffered heavy losses, they were not making a fuss about independence, but just wanted to take the opportunity to increase their voice within the group, what is wrong with this?

A group of Mongolian nobles who had left the Forbidden City flocked to Wu Keshan's mansion.

……

Liao River, Changshan Fort.

A drizzle was falling. In the midst of the wind and rain, a large group of Eight Banners Qing troops were silently disembarking on the other side of the river. From here, they rushed to Yanjing, and Zheng Jun's gunboats could no longer harass them.

Ta Zhan looked at the crossing point in front of him, his expression was quite complicated, who would have thought that they would have to find a chance to cross the Hunhe River further north in Shengjing?

The Zheng family's flat-bottomed gunboats, crisscrossing the waters of the Taizi River, the Hunhe River, and the Liao River, seemed to have woven a large net of iron cables, and all the Eight Banner Infantry Riders who were caught in it were imprisoned.

The east bank of Changshan Fort was full of requisitioned people, as well as donkey carts, horse-drawn carts, and ox carts that had been pulled out of the surrounding villages, constantly unloading people, horses and materials on the boats, and the people and animals on the docks were shouting and neighing.

Ta Zhan and Turg walked along the riverbank, and everywhere they passed, the Eight Banners who were either boarding the boat or still waiting were busy getting up and saluting. The two of them were in charge of the crossing.

The two of them walked in the rain without covering them with their clothes, although the drizzle was light, but it was very wet, and it didn't take long for both of them to get soaked, but neither Turg nor Tazhan cared. Just looked at the other side, frowning tightly.

"Now, I'm getting more and more bottomless in my heart." Ta Zhan stretched out his hand and followed the rain falling in front of him, "You say, let's rush all the way to Yanjing, the soldiers are marching non-stop, and when we get to the ground, how much combat strength is left?" And there is not a single artillery, so we just take advantage of the weakness, and those big cities will not be able to open ......"

"My Eight Banners warriors entered the customs and easily defeated Li Zicheng and captured Shenjing, which can be said to be a destiny. Why did it end up like this now? ”

Ta Zhan thought of the appearance of Dai Shan who he had seen and was about to die, and his heart was not happy. This master can really be said to have been killed by the tension outside the gate.

How could such an embarrassing thing, such a feeling of exhaustion, appear on Daqing's body? This is obviously the feeling that the Qing Dynasty imposed on Zhu Ming at the beginning.

And Zheng Zhilong failed to attack Yanjing this time, so there will be a next time, isn't it? Jinmen is held in the palm of Zheng Zhilong's hand, and people can come whenever they want.

It's really too passive.
