Chapter 298: The Temptation of the Three Provinces and Domains (700 Monthly Tickets Plus Update!) )
After Duoduo returned to Beijing with his army, Dorgon was so angry that he almost fainted.
One Azig, one Duoduo, none of his two good brothers made him worry!
In order to go to Mongolia and grab horses, Azig gave up a great opportunity to attack Huguang.
This is how Dodor played a good hand.
The face of Aixinjueluo's family is really a shame for these two people!
Of course, if you have to find a back, it's Luckdhun.
Thanks to Dorgon, he always trusted him, and ordered him to lead a large army all the way to Ming.
As a result, instead of taking Linqing alone, Luckedhun was captured and killed by the Ming army and almost wiped out.
A mouthful of Dorgon's old blood is about to spurt out.
Duoduo is also too indecisive, and when the battle comes to this point, he has to grit his teeth and take down Shandong. It's better now, retreat to Gyeonggi as a defeated army, what will the gentry of Beizhili think?
These dog minions are the most proficient at the helm of the wind, and if they provoke the untouchables to rebel, the court will have to allocate troops to exterminate them.
The situation in the Qing Dynasty is not optimistic.
Of course, Duoduo also felt very aggrieved.
The morale of the army is at a low point, there is not much food and grass, and if you continue to fight, God knows what will happen.
The Texas city wall is not much worse if it is not a copper wall, and the loss of a hard attack is too great.
The power of the red-coated cannon is great, but the lead bullet has consumed a lot when it hits the fortress and the chest wall of the trench, and there is not much left.
Do we have to wait until we run out of ammunition and food to withdraw our troops?
At that time, it was very passive, and if the Ming army sent cavalry to harass and attack all the way, the consequences would be unimaginable.
But Dorgon didn't listen to his explanation.
In Dorgon's view, Dordor, as the commander of an army, had an obligation to make the most correct decisions.
The Qing army was brought into this way by him, it is really sad!
Of course, now that things are like this, Dorgon has no other choice but to pinch his nose and recognize it.
Wait for a short rest before you raise the light.
It will take a while for Hong Chengchou to go to Shaanxi, and when he arrives in Guanzhong to supervise the battle, Dolgon is ready to order Duoduo to cooperate with the south to attack Ming.
Only this time it's going in a different direction.
Didn't you say that Shandong is difficult to fight?
Okay, then the king won't tell you to fight Shandong, just bypass Shandong and go to Fengyang!
If the Qing army can take Fengyang, it can go straight to Nanjing.
Of course, the premise of this is to take the Guide Mansion first.
Now Guide, including Kaifeng Prefecture near the line of Guide, are all in the hands of the Ming army.
If you don't take this place, it's not enough to enter Fengyang Mansion.
From this battle, Dolgon can also see that the Ming army has spent a lot of effort on the Shandong defense line, since you have taken great pains to deploy heavy troops in Shandong, then I will do the opposite and directly bypass your defense line.
Guide Mansion is definitely much easier to fight than Shandong Zhufu County, as long as Guide Mansion is taken, Fengyang will be at your fingertips.
Dolgon had already made up his mind that when he took Nanjing, he would arrest the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty and put Ling Chi to death to relieve the hatred in his heart.
......
......
Jinjiang County, Quanzhou Prefecture.
Today, a mysterious visitor came to Nan'anhou Mansion.
Zheng Zhilong, the Marquis of Nan'an, personally met him in the study, and the chat lasted for more than an hour.
After talking, Zheng Zhilong, who has always been arrogant, did not hesitate to condescend to the second gate and personally sent this mysterious visitor to the second gate.
This was unthinkable in the past.
Even high-ranking officials such as political envoys, commanders, and envoys, Zheng Zhilong, will not take a look at it.
The family in Nan'anhou's Mansion couldn't help but guess what the identity of this mysterious visitor was.
Some guess that it is the imperial court's envoy, and some guess that it is the new governor of Fujian, and there are many theories.
At this moment, in the study of Nan'an Houfu, Zheng Zhilong's face was as cold as water, and he tapped his fingers repeatedly.
"Fourth brother, what do you think about this matter?"
Zheng Zhilong looked at Zheng Hongkui, his eyes full of inquiry.
Zheng Hongkui pondered for a moment and arched his hand: "Big brother, I don't think this matter is ordinary. If this guy is really Hong Chengchou's relatives, he can't be trusted. Although Hong Chengchou is now reused by Dolgon, he cannot represent the Qing court after all. The promises he made were just a matter of ear to ear, and they couldn't be true. ”
It can be seen that Zheng Zhilong is a little tempted, and Zheng Hongkui is a little worried about this.
Most of the Zheng family's votes are from pirates, and they don't take courtesy, righteousness and shame so seriously. But surrendering the Tartars is a shameless thing.
If it was Zhang Xianzhong's people who came to persuade him to surrender, I am afraid that Zheng Hongkui would persuade Zheng Zhilong not to talk to death and leave a way back.
"Well, there is some truth in what you said."
Zheng Zhilong's eyebrows were twisted, and he took a deep breath and exhaled.
Hong Chengchou really can't represent the Qing court, but is this a temptation issued by the Qing court?
If Zheng Zhilong is really interested, will the two parties have further contacts and even consultations?
I can't say for sure.
Being able to get into today's high position, Zheng Zhilong's scheming is naturally no problem, he will not easily trust others, not to mention the matter related to the life of the whole clan.
Zheng Zhilong is now named the Marquis of Nan'an by the Ming court, and he is also the chief military officer of Fujian, and the power of the imperial court cannot enter at all.
Whether the Ming court wants to admit it or not, Zheng Zhilong is now the emperor of Fujian Province.
In this case, Zheng Zhilong didn't have much reason to be tempted, but the promise given by Hong Chengchou was very tempting.
Hong Chengchou sent a message to Zheng Zhilong through his personal entourage, and the regent of the Qing court, Dolgon, promised him that if he took the world in the future, he would take the land of Fujian, Guangdong, and Guangxi as Zheng Zhilong's fief and crown him king.
Crowned king!
The temptation is indeed too great.
Since the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, except for the founding of the country, there has been no case of a king with a different surname, and at most it will be the end of the crown.
Zheng Zhilong is now the Marquis of Nan'an, which means that he will climb one level up at most to the position of the Duke of the Kingdom.
The prince and the prince are still a lot worse.
What's more, the Qing court also promised him Guangdong, Guangxi, and Fujian as vassals.
Needless to say, Fujian was originally in the hands of Zheng Zhilong. But Liangguang is also a rich place.
Especially in Guangdong, which is no less prosperous than Fujian, Zheng Zhilong has always been salivating.
The Zheng family sailors now control most of the maritime trade in the southeast, but they can't reach out to Guangdong.
If the two Guangxi can really be integrated, the Zheng family's annual sea trade profits and sea tax input will increase a lot.
Zheng Zhilong is a businessman and a coward, so the only thing he values most is profit.
Whoever can give him more benefits, he will choose to cooperate with.
This is also why he accepted the Ming Court's recruitment back then, and turned his face to encircle and suppress the old brothers in the past.
And now the situation is very similar.
Of course, as a pirate and a businessman, there are risks to consider.
If the risks outweigh the benefits, think about it.
