Chapter 57: Dolgon

Liaodong, although it is late spring and early summer, the weather in Liaodong is still much colder than that in Jiangnan and Wuchang. In the Shengjing Chongzheng Palace, Dolgon paced back and forth, as if looking for the figure of Huang Taiji.

This brother, who has pressed himself all his life, finally took the first step.

And now the Qing Dynasty is the world of his Dolgon.

At this moment, Dolgon used the strength of the two white flags to suppress the other eight banners and secure the position of regent.

If it weren't for the jealousy, the old thing of Daishan would still be there, and Huang Taiji would still have some loyal subordinates, and Dolgon would not have been a regent for a long time, but the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.

After doing this time, Dolgon watched the changes in Guanzhong, Beijing fell, Chongzhen died, and the world fell apart. Li Zicheng dominated the north, while the south rose together, and the Qing court did not enter the customs in a big way after 15 years of Chongzhen.

It's been a while to recuperate.

This is the time to show your edge.

But what to do with the current situation. Dolgon's mind was uncertain.

"Your Majesty, Lord Fan asks to see you." There are guards outside to report,

"Yes, please." Dorgon said.

Fan Wencheng is the think tank of Huang Taiji, and he is also the person who knows the most about current affairs.

For the Han people in Liaodong, they have always been second-class citizens, and the real core of power has never been in the hands of the Han people, so the struggle for the highest power has nothing to do with the Han people.

But after Huang Taiji's death, he didn't fight for Huang Taiji's heirs to the end, not because he didn't want to, but because Fan Wencheng was not qualified to enter the game at all.

At this moment Dorgon came to summon him, and he did not dare not come.

Fan Wencheng was dressed in a money rat tail, and almost his entire head was recognizable, except on the back of his head, there was a strand of hair the size of a copper coin, combed with slender braids, and he really looked like a rat's tail. Such a slender hair braid, also does not hang long, and finally above the back.

"The slave has seen the master." As soon as Fan Wencheng came in, he knelt down and buckled his head and said.

"Get up." Dolgon said: "You are also a powerful person next to the Eighth Brother, how do you think you should start in this situation?" ”

Fan Wencheng didn't dare to have a trace of grievance in his heart.

Even if he had just been robbed of his wife by Dórd, and his wife had been in Dórdor for many days before returning, what had happened to him had already happened, and even if it hadn't happened, no one would believe it.

But even so?

That's the master.

At this moment, Fan Wencheng did not dare to slack off, and said: "Although the thieves have seized Beijing, their foothold is not stable, although the world is undecided, the thieves only need to be defeated, and the north is not their own, so now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and the opportunity cannot be lost."

No more coming, ask the regent to enter the customs in a big way. ”

"It's okay to get in." Dorgon said.

Dolgon was not without his own thoughts before, and Dolgon himself had already decided on the matter of entering the customs.

Without him, then just to test the strength of the camp, you must also enter the customs, do not understand the strength of the camp, if you want to get along with the camp in the future, it will not be very easy.

But to what extent, Dolgon did not make up his mind.

At this time, not only did the whole world have no confidence in Dongyu's ability to seize the world, but even among the high-level Manchu Qing Dynasty, there was not much such confidence. Huang Taiji is a monarch who upholds the belief that he will compete with the Ming for the world, but Dolgon is not.

Strategically, Dolgon was far inferior to Huang Taiji.

"But to that point?" Dolgon said: "The Ming Dynasty is a big country, and Liaodong is weak, so I am afraid that it will not be able to do it. ”

"Your Highness is exactly what he said." Fan Wencheng said. He said so, but what he thought in his heart, I don't know, he continued: "I have repeatedly entered the customs, but I can't stand in the pass, so this time I enter the customs, the most secondary, but also in the pass to seize one or two big cities, for the place to stay, such as Shanhaiguan in hand, it is better." ”

"Now that Chongzhen is dead, Ming is falling apart, although there is a use for lingering, but it has long been unbearable to rise again, so now, the enemy who enters the customs is a thief, not Ming."

"Between the thief and the thief, they look like they are separated. Cao thief in Nanjing also mourned for Chongzhen, which can be seen, so with the plan of the minister, today should enter the customs in the name of Chongzhen's revenge, and send someone to Jiangnan to negotiate peace with Cao Ying, no matter what is discussed, as long as Cao Ying does not merge with the camp. ”

"Heming, divide Cao, attack. Go down to the thieves first. ”

"If you are invincible and invincible, then the thief is not as good as me, but if you win the hearts of the people and obey the people, then I am not a thief." Therefore, this time when entering the customs, I also asked the regent to restrain his subordinates, and the autumn did not commit any offense, so that the people could return to obedience and stay in the customs for a long time. ”

"This ----," said Dorgon, "how can you appease the Eight Banners?" ”

Fan Wencheng said: "The Eight Banners take the world as a pasture, and before entering the customs, it was just to grab cattle and sheep, and now the customs are also under the Eight Banners, why kill cattle and sheep, and fish with all their might?" ”

Dorgon pondered for a moment and said, "Yes. ”

Fan Wencheng was relieved to see Dolgon like this, and continued: "Zu Dashou is related to Wu Sangui, and he also asked the general to send Zu Dashou to repair a letter to persuade Wu Sangui to surrender, so that Shanhaiguan can rub his hands. ”

Dolgon said, "It's a matter of personal feelings. ”

Shanhaiguan is so important.

From Liaodong into the Central Plains, Shanhaiguan is where the gate is, if from Shanhaiguan to the people, but one or two days away, if you detour into Beijing, it will be more than ten days.

Don't underestimate it, these ten days, more than these times, is clear

The court has repeatedly entered the customs, even if it is in a no-man's land, it cannot occupy the city and hold on.

However, although Dolgon said this, he still asked Zu Dashou to write a letter and send it to Shanhaiguan with his own handwriting, wanting to persuade Wu Sangui to surrender.

And Wu Sangui is the focus at this moment.

The camp also made Wu Xiang write a letter and recruit Wu Sangui to surrender.

Wu Sangui was vacillating, not knowing how to choose between the Qing court and breaking into the camp.

Wu Sangui is still very familiar with the Qing court, just like the Guannei officials and soldiers have fought so many battles with the Liukou, and they can find acquaintances with each other just like you have me and I have you.

And the same is true of the Liaodong Army and the Qing court, the Liaodong Army is now under repeated defeats, I don't know how many people have surrendered to the Qing court, Zu Dashou is just one of the representatives, Wu Sangui called Zu Dashou an uncle, there is this acquaintance here, return to the Qing, as long as the price is right.

Wu Sangui didn't mind.

But as it was said before.

The Qing court itself did not have the confidence to seize the world, at least before occupying Beijing, and this intention was not strong. Wu Sangui also absolutely broke into the camp and occupied most of China, even if it was not as good as the Qing court for a while, as long as it stabilized, it would be able to save the situation in the future.

He pondered for a while, and finally hid all the letters, as if he had never seen them, handed over Shanhaiguan to Tang Tong, who surrendered first, and went away with his entourage to look at Beijing.

Halfway through the road, the capital got the news, the big families in the capital were tortured, and even Wu Xiang was imprisoned, Wu Sangui was like a basin of cold water poured on his head, and he was suddenly very frightened. One is worried about his father's fate, and the other is worried about himself.

Without him, breaking into the camp is so ruthless to Wu Xiang, they will give themselves good fruits to eat, and even call him to Beijing, is it a booby-trap?

He didn't think about these things before, but now he has to think about them.

Wu Sangui made a quick decision, quickly returned to Shanhaiguan, and led his troops to defeat Tang Tong.

When the news reached Beijing, Li Zicheng was furious.

Starting from Xi'an to Beijing, there are only two tough battles in Yulin City and Ningwuguan along the way, and the rest are all surrendered to the wind, and have never surrendered and rebelled. If you don't teach Wu Sangui a hard lesson today, I'm afraid that the new land will not ask.

So Li Zicheng ordered Qi Jing's division to be 100,000 small and marched eastward.

And the Qing court also ordered the elite of the Eight Banners outside Shanhaiguan, and a big war was about to break out.

But the situation here can't be spread thousands of miles away in the city of Nanjing, and Zhang Xuan is in the city of Nanjing at the moment, very busy, although it is estimated that the battle of a stone is about to start, but what kind of situation it is, but I can't pay attention to it.

The ascension to the throne of Emperor Hongguang made Luo Rucai even more unable to hold back, and urged Zhang Xuan to send troops as soon as possible. I can't wait for a moment.
