After learning this, his subordinate Ming Shan Haiwei general: Feng Youwei, led a few soldiers to secretly come to the secret room where the Ming Ning Yuanwei General Soldier wrote a letter, and stabbed the window paper with his hand to look inside through the window.

Through the window, it can be clearly seen that in the letter of borrowing troops to the regent of the Manchu emperor of the Eastern Captive *****: Aixin Jueluo Dolgon, the general soldier of the Ming Ning Yuanwei and the other two Wu brothers repeatedly called the Ming Empire "our country" and "my dynasty" in the name of "lonely ministers of the dead country".

After all, since the Later Jin Dynasty to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the Ming Empire in the south has never recognized the independence of the Eastern Emperor, because the Eastern Emperor Jiannu issued the "Seven Hatreds Against the Ming Dynasty" as the commander of the Jurchen Left Guard of the Ming Dynasty.

This point is not agreed by the Ming Empire's court, so the Eastern Empire often has a headache in diplomacy, after all, it is called a traitor by the Ming Dynasty, and the people who split the independence of the Ming Dynasty's territory, that is to say, in the letter, the three brothers of the Wu family are to ask for help from the Eastern Emperor as the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty, and the purpose of borrowing troops is to "destroy the Liukou" so that the Ming Empire can (Zhongxing), rather than letting the Eastern Emperor Jiannu enter the Central Plains.

And the letter mentioned that after the elimination of the Liukou army, they would use the "children's jade silk" and part of the land (referring to the land outside the Shanhaiwei Pass, after all, this is also the land they guarded) as a reward and reward for the borrowed troops of the Eastern Captives.

On the issue of the route of the Dongyu entering the pass and cooperating with the battle, the three brothers of the Wu family asked the Dongyu to build the Eight Banners Army (directly into the Central Association and the Western Association), and the three brothers led their own troops and horses to reach the capital.

That is to say, only the Eight Banners of the Eastern Jiannu and the Eight Banners of Mongolia were allowed to enter the Ming Realm from the Xifengkou and Longjing Pass in Jizhou Town, as well as the Qiangziling and General Shiguan of the Miyun Guard.

Because these places are the old roads that the Donglu have entered the interior of the Ming Empire in the past, and they are the places where the current Dashun Empire troops are stationed, according to this provision in the letter, the three brothers of the Wu family can not only protect their own safety and prevent the Dongyu from taking the opportunity to carry out their "false way to destroy the enemy", but also can prompt the Donglu to fight with the main force of Dashun, and he himself can take advantage of the fisherman.

This is the policy of "joining forces to attack the stream" initially implemented by the Ming Ning Yuan Guard General to persuade the brothers, because the Ming Ning Yuan Wei General did not really want to defect to the Qing court at that time, and he still had a nostalgia for the old Ming.

After writing like this, after the eldest brother Ming Guangning and the former guard commander and the third brother Ming Guangning and the third brother Ming Guangning were watched by the former Yu Qianhu, he laughed and said, "Hehehe! Wonderful, wonderful! Presumably, Dongyu should have nothing to say now! ”

Then he immediately sent people to the outside of the gate, and the Ming Shan Haiwei staff outside the window learned that the three brothers still had a heart for the Ming Dynasty? He lowered his head and whispered a few words to the soldiers on the left and right, and left.

The herald who went out of the pass hung the order flag on his back and changed into a Liaodong war horse, and quickly marched to the north of the Liaodong Dusi, and after running for half an hour, he came to a dense forest area that is also the junction of the region, and the herald who was galloping on the road suddenly opened his eyes wide, looked at the front in horror and was at a loss, and was soon knocked to the ground by the tripping horse that appeared on the ground!

In the distance, several Manchu soldiers wearing white cotton armor whistled, got up one after another, and said, "Jurchen language: Look at the Ming army? ”

Several other Manchu Qing soldiers with white flags felt that the Ming soldiers must be in a hurry when they came to pass orders outside the customs for no reason? So he walked over and put a Kanto broom on his neck and asked, "Jurchen language: What are the Han people doing here?" ”

One of the Manchu soldiers with the White Flag reacted and pushed them away, saying, "Jurchen language: Oops! How can he understand our Jurchen language? Does anyone understand JAC official dialect? ”

Everyone shook their heads! In desperation, the Manchu Qing White Flag soldiers had to pull him up and drag him forward, and the dragged herald shouted helplessly: "Let go of me!" I have an urgent military situation to go to Shenyang Zhongwei to meet your regent. ”

However, the Dongyu soldiers who couldn't understand the official language of the Ming Jianghuai just pulled away, ignoring so much, and when they were dragged they passed by a stone tablet, they could clearly see that the stone tablet was engraved with the words "Gaotai Fort".

In the camp of the Qing army here, the Manchu Han man wearing a positive five products (wearing a flower feather on a glass top): Hong Chengchou, who was analyzing the battle situation on the topographic map of the Liaodong Capital Division, heard the noise of soldiers outside the camp?

Curious, he immediately asked his subordinates to go out to take a look, and the subordinates who lifted the curtain immediately saw the Manchu Zheng White Flag soldiers coming over with a Ming army herald, and they also walked into the camp tent and said, "Jurchen language: Trouble Scholar Hong to interrogate him!" ”

The Manchu Han scholar, who knew a little about Jurchen, replied, "Jurchen: Sain (Okay!) ）”

In this way, the herald of the Ming army was arranged to sit down, and the Manchu Han scholar was very polite to let people pour tea for him to drink, and began to ask in the familiar Jianghuai official dialect, "I don't know where this little brother is?" What kind of instructions do you want to convey? ”

As soon as he heard that the other party was talking about the official language of the Ming Jianghuai, the herald soldier relaxed and drank a sip of tea to suppress the shock, and said slowly: "Oh, I went to Shenyang Zhongwei to convey the will to the regent on the order of the three chief soldiers. ”

These words were seen through and recognized by the Manchu Han scholars at a glance! He raised his head and smiled, "Don't you know that the Ming Empire has changed the Shenyang Zhongwei of the Liaodong Metropolitan Division to the imperial capital Shengjing?" ”

The herald of the Ming army retorted, "Although the name of the Dongyu country has been changed, this is the guard of our Ming Dynasty, so I am still used to calling ourselves Shenyang Zhongwei, by the way, after chatting for so long, I still don't know who you are in the Dongyu country?" ”

The Manchu Han man, who still smiled, continued: "What Dongyu country! The old man is a five-rank Han scholar given by the first emperor of the Qing Dynasty: Hong Chengchou, if you have anything to report to me, I can also let you go back. ”

learned that he was the traitor Hong Chengchou who betrayed the Ming Empire? The herald suddenly couldn't help but spit on the ground, and scolded, "Phew, His Majesty the Ming Emperor has something to be sorry for you, you actually want to surrender to the East as a barbarian?" ”

The ashamed Manchu Han scholar lowered his head and didn't dare to answer for a long time! The entourage beside him added: "Back then, the Battle of Songjin, oh no, you Ming Dynasty called the Battle of Songguang, when the first emperor Taiji of the Qing Dynasty attacked the grain and grass hoarded by our army in Beacon Mountain, resulting in the defeat of the general army of the Eight Towns without food!" But my lord and the ancestor general soldiers held the Guangning Zhongtun guard for seven days, during which the Ming court sent a soldier to the rescue? Not at all! In the end, in order not to let the soldiers and civilians suffer, Chengpo had no choice but to surrender to the east. ”

After saying that, the herald understood a little! But he was still reluctant to tell him that the three brothers of the Wu family were going to borrow troops from the Eastern Capture Kingdom?

As soon as the Manchu Han scholars heard about this, they immediately felt that the time was finally coming? He happily invited the herald to go down and entertain him with good food and drink, and asked the Manchu Han army soldiers with yellow flags outside the camp to report the news to the Manchu emperor's father, the regent.

After learning about the situation, the shrewd and capable Manchu imperial father regent felt that this letter was fraudulent? Is it actually a huge trap? Why? Because once they marched according to the agreement in the letter, then they had to bear the food for the long march, and the second was to officially engage the regular army of Dashun after entering the customs, which was an unprecedented contact in the history of the Manchu Eight Banners, so that the regent of the Manchu emperor did not dare to agree easily, so he had to ask about the situation of the Hongxue scholars around him.

He was well aware of the power of the rogues, and introduced: "His Royal Highness the Regent, the father of the emperor, the old ministers have fought with the rogues in the Central Plains, they are basically a kind of soldiers who are in trouble, and they gather together to fight the enemy together in wartime, once the army is defeated, they will be quickly defeated, and it is a thousand miles of defeat without organization at all!" Under normal circumstances, as long as there is a large number of cavalry, it is clear that they can be pursued and killed. ”

After getting the analysis, the regent of the Manchu emperor had some certainty, but another question came again? Although it is a borrowed soldier, the three brothers of the Wu family don't seem to trust themselves very much? Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to make a detour to the south of the Mongolian Karaqin tribe to the south!

This is obviously a distrust of oneself, and what if it is a trap? Then the consequence is that after their army enters the interior, it will be attacked by the Guanning Iron Cavalry, the local Shun army, the Ming army, etc., which is particularly risky and very cost-effective.

If you really want to borrow troops, you can let the mountains and seas enter the customs to destroy the Liukou, but it is estimated that they will not, after all, the Donglu is a barbarian, and the three brothers of the Wu family still regard themselves as the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty, so this article is not valid!

In the end, the analysis came to the analysis of the Manchu imperial father, and the regent came up with a clever plan? He saw the wishful thinking of the general army of Mingning Yuanwei, so he decided to agree to send troops, but not (borrowing troops) but asked the second brother of the three brothers of the Wu family, the general soldier of Mingning Yuanwei: Wu Sangui, to first accept the title of "King of Pingxi County" given by His Royal Highness the regent of the Qing Dynasty, so as to agree to send troops.

In other words, the Qing Empire no longer regards the Ming Ning Yuanwei General as an equal partner, but wants him to accept the adoption as a slave of the Qing Dynasty! Because among the three brothers of the Wu family, the Guanning Iron Cavalry under the General Soldiers of the Ming Ning Yuanwei is the most powerful, and it is also the target of the Qing Dynasty's key wooing.

Therefore, in view of the drastic changes in the Ming Empire, coupled with the persuasion of the Manchu Han scholars, he saw that the time to win the Central Plains had come, and he was no longer satisfied with the three brothers of the Wu family's request to borrow troops, why promised to give him some gold and silver property and part of the land after defeating the Liukou, which was far from enough for him!

He now wants the Forbidden City of Beizhili and the entire Central Plains region in Shanhaiwei to achieve the overlord of the Southern Song Dynasty like the Jin State, after all, it has not been recognized as an independent country by the Ming Empire since the Eastern Empire raised its army, so now they finally have the opportunity to prove that the Qing Dynasty is an independent and powerful empire.

However, at present, it is not enough to attack southward with the two banners of Manchu Qing, Zhengbai and Zhenghuang, as well as the two banners of Mongol Karaqin and Li's North Korea, after all, in the past, it was to attack the city and loot and occupy several cities, and this time the land laid down by the Central Plains needs soldiers to defend, and the siege also needs troops and backups.

Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, the regent of the Manchu emperor's father decided to write back to the imperial capital Shengjing, let the Manchu Xiaozhuang Empress Dowager send the Four Banners Army, and let the soldiers send an order to the Mongol tribes in the south to send troops to cooperate with the battle and go south to attack the city and plunder the land.

The second and most important point is how to reply to the three brothers of the Wu family? Regarding this point, the Manchu Han scholar proposed: "Lao Chen thinks that when the general army of Ning Yuanwei leads his troops out of the city, and reserves the Yuqianhu in Guangning to join up with the vanguard of our army, so as to prevent the Ming army from deceitful with the Shun army?" Second, after they leave Shanhaiwei, it will be easier for our army to break through Shanhaiwei at that time? What do you think, Your Royal Highness the Regent? ”
