Chapter 778: Don't Kill the Three Ministers!
The news that Zhu Cihong claimed the land of Zhongzhou in the name of the dowry of the fourteen grids was sent to the camp of the Western Army of the Qing Dynasty at the foot of Jieshi Mountain by Zu Kefa and Huang Dabao.
Jieshi Mountain is located in Shanhaiguan about 100 miles away, more than 20 miles away from the beach of Bohai Bay, climb the southeast slope of Jieshi Mountain, you can overlook the vast sea, the so-called Jieshi view of the sea, is here.
When Zu Kefa and Huang Dabao arrived at Jieshi Mountain, there was another scenic spot here, which was the tomb of Qingcheng Zong, that is, the tomb of Dolgon, called "Jianling". The name of the imperial tomb with the word "thrifty" is to indicate that the imperial tomb is very thrifty, and there are absolutely no valuable burial goods, so those who are upside down in later generations should not pay attention to Dorgon's tomb......
The Qing Jian Mausoleum is indeed very frugal, and there are not many magnificent tall halls, and within the walls, there are some low and shabby houses. However, the area of Jianling is not small, and the site selection is dangerous enough - it is stuck under the southeast slope of Jieshi Mountain, and Shanhaiguan is far away.
In addition, the wall of the Qingjian Mausoleum is also made with care. The exterior wall is not at right angles to the ground, but has a certain slope, which is good for climbing, but it can effectively defend against artillery bombardment, and it is also conducive to the defenders at the head of the wall to open fire.
Outside the wall of the Qingjian Mausoleum, there is a ditch three zhang wide and one zhang deep, and the bottom of the ditch is full of sharpened wooden piles.
This tomb of Dolgon is more of a castle than a royal tomb!
The Azig army that came from Beijing is now stationed in the Qing Jian Mausoleum, and the rest are stationed around the Jian Mausoleum, and I don't know if it will disturb Dolgon, who is burying in the ground?
The army that Azig brought with him was quite a few people, a full 80,000 people!
Among the nine banners in the Guannai, except for the Zhenglan Banner, where Duoduo was the banner owner, there were no troops. The remaining eight banners all sent troops, of which the Manchurian Seven Banners dispatched a total of about 40,000 people (including the Han army and Baoyi), and of the remaining 40,000 people, 36,000 were soldiers of the three kings of the Zhenglu Banner, and the others were Mongols.
Azig himself was a member of the Chinese army, and he was placed in the sacrificial hall of the Jianling Mausoleum, so the formal reception was also held in the sacrificial hall.
Because Azig already knew what Zhu Cihong's request was, he ordered the generals of the Nine Banners above Jiala (including Jiala) in front of the army to come to the sacrificial hall to participate in the meeting - in Azig's opinion, Zhu Cihong's conditions were more favorable to him.
Before the arrival of Zu Kefa and Huang Dabao, the news of the complete breakdown of the negotiations between Duoduo and Daming had reached the Jieshishan army. Therefore, the news that Zhu Cihong was willing to marry Fourteen Gege meant that the Southern Ming and the Northern Qing ruled by Azig could get along in harmony.
"Regent, our Ming Emperor is on the road. Now that your Qing Kingdom has divided things, it is a bloody battle to see it, and our emperor can't say that he can't make progress in the Central Plains, right? However, our Ming Emperor Hongxing is not aggressive, and he does not want to lose his life, and the regent, you are willing to marry Fourteen Gege to become the good of Qin and Jin. Therefore, our emperor's requirements are not high, you will give 14 more dowries, and you will give Henan Mansion, Ruzhou, Kaifeng Prefecture Henan Land, Guide Mansion, Yanzhou Mansion west of the canal, Dongchang Mansion, Jinan Mansion Daqing River North, as well as several counties of Nanyang Mansion and Runing Mansion that you occupy...... As long as you agree to this condition, our emperor is willing to get along with your old man, and he can also pay a dowry worth 1.88 million taels of silver, so that you won't be unable to get off the stage. ”
It was Zu Kefa who was talking, and now he was the envoy of the council, and he came north again to deceive Xiao Gege for Emperor Zhu.
Azig snorted twice: "1.88 million taels want the seven state capitals of Zhongzhou, and we want to take a small Gege like a flower and jade in the Qing Dynasty, your Hongxing Emperor's abacus is too fine, right?" ”
Zu Kefa smiled: "Then who made you Qing split in two?" Lord Wang, the matter of silver can still be discussed, if you think 1.88 million taels is too little, then make a price, and then go back and discuss it with our emperor...... You want to go back in one bite, our emperor is angry, maybe he can take it by himself! At that time, it will not be the seven state capitals of Zhongzhou, at least all the territory in the Guannai will have to be taken! ”
"Hehe, what a big breath!"
"What? Want to try it? ”
Azig smiled: "Aren't your emperor and a group of generals still learning to fight from some prince in France?" Already learned? ”
Zu Kefa laughed, "Don't hide it from the prince, the cram school is not over yet...... But it's also fast, and you will know that you are powerful when the time comes! My emperor really doesn't want the people of Zhongzhou to suffer again, so he gives Zhenglu Banner and other flag soldiers stationed in Zhongzhou a way out. Let them go by themselves, the 1.88 million taels of silver will be used as the travel fee, if it is not enough, you can add a little more. ”
Hearing this, Azig suddenly laughed: "All gone? Didn't the emperor of the Southern Dynasty like to recruit rebels the most? Not recruiting this time? ”
What he said was actually knocking on the three kings of the green flag and one of the other high-ranking generals present - the regent of Azig was wise and knew that they were the alternate three ministers!
But Zu Kefa's answer made all the traitors who wanted to be the three ministers feel a sense of heartbreak.
"No recruitment, no recruitment!" Zu Kefa shook his head with a smile, "I won't recruit this time...... Now my Ming soldiers are brave and brave, the money and food are sufficient, and the dignified array is also a sure victory! ”
That's a good point! The Ming Dynasty now has hundreds of thousands of troops, and the generals are all in cram schools, and the level of war is rising gradually, and there is still a need for a group of despicable and shameless traitors?
Zu Kefa glanced at his past colleagues with an apologetic look, and smiled: "Let's go!" There is a good territory outside the border, why squeeze in Zhongzhou? I don't know how many people are waiting to divide that bit of land in Zhongzhou, and the land granted to the common people is not easy to take back......"
That's the truth! It's not that he missed his mouth, it's that Zhu Cihong took care of him!
It's called creating panic!
The purpose is to drive people out of the customs.
There are nearly 100,000 households in the Kannai!
Strive to mobilize, there are 1120,000 people, and if they all have to defend the fortress, how troublesome will it be to fight? If you want to conquer them, there will be less land...... Emperor Zhu's northerners, nobles, bureaucrats, and heroes are all waiting to carve up the banner land in the north!
If there is no land division, where will they have the strength of the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains?
Besides, everyone went to the cram school of Prince Confucius, and their fighting skills have risen, and there is no need for this group of alternate ministers to defect.
And Dolgon made a plan to give dictation of land in the Central Plains, and gave out hundreds of millions of acres at once! It is not easy for Zhu Cihong to recover these lands, and the lessons of the peasant uprising are so profound that they cannot be forgotten so quickly.
So I can only let the green flag and some other flags hand over the flag!
As soon as the truth was told, the traitors in the sacrificial hall suddenly fell into an ice cave.
Daming doesn't want three ministers now!
Azig was quite proud in his heart, these two ministers can't be the third minister now, so they can only follow the Qing Dynasty, he snorted: "Zu Kefa, you go back and tell Emperor Zhu that my Qing Dynasty will not give up the land of Zhongzhou!" If he only wants Gege, Fourteen Gege can go over at any time to fill the gap of the girl in Dongor, if he wants the territory, hmph, let the horse fight! My son of the green flag is not afraid of him! ”
How could you not be afraid!
Shang Kexi, Geng Zhongming, and Kong Tingxun were all about to cry! Not to mention how powerful the generals of the army have become after going to cram school, even if they don't go to that cram school, they can't beat people even if they don't go to the cram school! The last time Dolgon fought Shi Kefa, it was useless...... Why don't you Azig let everyone run away?
Oh yes, nowhere to run!
Outside the gate is Duoduo's territory, which is not good!
When the three traitor princes were thinking in their hearts, a white-armored soldier with a white flag flew into the main hall, and when he arrived at Azig, he made a thousand salutes, and then reported loudly: "Lord Yu, Dashihe urgently, this morning, the army of King Yu marched westward from Shanhaiguan!" ”
