As for using the cavalry of the Eight Banners to fight the Ming army, Dolgon shook his head with a wry smile, he had no such idea at all, because he knew bitterly that this was just to send the Eight Banners to death.

This was proven long before the westward migration.

The Eight Banners Iron Cavalry may be invincible in the same use of cold weapons, but after all, it is flesh and blood, and in the face of the Ming army with advanced gun combinations, it can't be defeated at all, let alone explain the army, even if it faces the same number and is equipped with a certain number of European flint teams with a certain amount of cannons, they may be defeated.

Although I don't want to admit it, it seems to be an indisputable fact that the Eight Banners Cavalry has not regained the glory it had when it was outside the gate during the Chongzhen period, and it will no longer be able to achieve that glory.

It's not that the soldiers of the Eight Banners are not heroic enough, but the weapons used by the Eight Banners are not good, if they are not reformed, in the future, the Eight Banners will face the attack of the Ming army, and they can only be sent to be slaughtered by the Ming army.

If you want to get out of such an embarrassing situation, you can only learn from the cavalry of the Ming army, give up the bow and arrow, and use the rifle on the cavalry instead.

However, there is another problem in this way, the rifle imitated by the Qing Dynasty, because it still uses black powder, the power is insufficient, the effective range is not even 200 meters, and when the cavalry fights, it is not much stronger than using a bow and arrow, not to mention that the rifle and bullet are expensive and do not have a big enough effect, so it is better to leave it to the infantry.

Dolgon sighed, in addition to the Eight Banners cavalry needs to be reformed, there are also Persian flags, Indian flags, Ottoman flags and other infantry also need to be reformed.

In the face of such a powerful enemy as the Ming Dynasty, it is definitely not possible to rely on their own military strength, at least in terms of numbers, it is impossible to fight against the Ming army, so Dolgon had to consider equipping a part of the Persian flag, the Indian flag, and the Ottoman cavalry into a firearms army.

Unfortunately, this is also a need to worry, afraid of the strength of the Eight Banners cavalry and rifle team, the Qing Dynasty's rule over the various ethnic groups in the territory is extremely stable, this is because the ethnic groups have no strength to resist, but once the Persians, Ottomans, or Indians, etc., are also equipped with guns and cannons, and after gaining stronger combat effectiveness, they may not regenerate their rebellion.

So, Dolgon had to hesitate to do so.

--------------------------------

Daming, Nanjing City.

As Dolgon worried, after the Manchu Dynasty completely annexed the Ottoman Empire, for Zhu Cijiao, the Manchu Qing were about to run out of their role in the Middle East, and it was time for the Ming Dynasty to consider sending troops to destroy the Manchus.

"Your Majesty, Dolgon really carried out his shaving order in the territory of the Ottoman Empire that he had just conquered, and killed more than a million Ottomans who resisted, it was really a river of blood!" Li Yan said to Zhu Ci with a smile.

"Dolgon's hope is no longer what I wanted!" Zhu Ci also smiled meaningfully.

When Dolgon's tribe moved west, nearly twenty-seven years have passed, and the Ming Dynasty has countless opportunities to send troops to completely destroy Dolgon, but Zhu Ciji has always held back and has no intention of sending troops.

In that part of the Middle East, because of the existence of the so-called 'true God', the various ethnic groups there are more extreme.

If the Ming Dynasty conquered this land in this way, the Ming Dynasty would need to spend its own energy and cost to fight and deal with these things, and then there was the population problem there, before the Manchu Qing Dynasty did not expand, the Mughal Empire had a population of 90 million, the Persian Empire had a population of more than 17 million, the Arabian Peninsula, North Africa, the Ottoman Empire, etc., the total population was nearly 150 million.

It's just too much.

With the strength of the Ming Dynasty, once these places are attacked, they must be overwhelmed and quickly captured, so that these populations will not lose much at all, once they are incorporated into the Ming Dynasty, it will not take many years, maybe they will directly grow to the same number as the Chinese nation, which is absolutely unbearable for Zhu Cijiao.

And after the Ming Dynasty captured, he slaughtered those unarmed people, it was too bloody, and it seemed inhumane, and the hands of the soldiers of the Ming army were not used to stain the blood of those who were defenseless.

Therefore, Zhu Ci didn't want Daming to do those things, so he asked Dolgon and Manchu to do them.

Sure enough, Dolgon led the Manchus to rebuild the Qing Dynasty, and expanded all the way, constantly waging wars, first destroying the Persian Empire, not to mention the war of destroying the country, and then falsely faxing God's will, implementing the shaving order, which led to a fierce resistance of the Persians at once, and the number of Persians killed reached nearly two million alone.

Not only did it greatly reduce the population of the Persians, but it also dealt a heavy blow to the 'divine power' for the first time, so that the royal power passed the divine right in the hearts of the Persians!

This was followed by several captives of the Mughal Empire, and a seven-year war with the Mughal Empire, which destroyed the Mughal Empire. In seven years, the Mughal Empire lost countless war deaths, because of the war, more people were killed and starved to death for no reason, and then because of the long-term war, there were too many floating corpses, and when the rainy season came, there was a plague.

Because of the torture brought by the Manchus, the original population of the Mughal Empire of more than 90 million was drastically reduced to only more than 36 million.

Subsequently, the ten-year war with the Ottoman Empire, the two sides devoted their national strength to war in Syria for ten years, ten years, not only did the two sides kill a large number of soldiers, plus logistics and transportation consumed more manpower, etc., a large amount of land on both sides was barren, food production was reduced, and many people were starved to death.

Finally, the battle to defeat the Ottoman Empire.

Since the Manchu Qing Dynasty moved westward to the Middle East, they fought almost every year, killing rivers of blood, and bringing incomparably profound disasters to all ethnic groups in the Middle East.

The most obvious is that by the end of the Ottoman Empire, the population of the territory that originally belonged to various ethnic groups in the territory of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was directly reduced by more than half, and in more than 20 years, because of the ravages of the Dolgon and Manchus, the Middle East lost as many as 80 million people.

At the same time, the divine power was hit hard, but also killed countless people of all ethnic groups who had the heart of resistance, if the Ming Dynasty ruled these places in the future, it would definitely reduce a large number of people with the heart of resistance, plus because of the huge population loss of all ethnic groups in the war, this is the 'merit' of Dolgon and the Manchurians!

"Now, the Ottoman Empire has also been destroyed by Dolgon and the Manchus, and the role of Dolgon and the Manchus in the Middle East has become smaller and smaller, and the Ming Dynasty no longer needs them, maybe it's time to prepare to destroy them!" Zhu Ci was full of murderous intent, and finally said such a sentence.
