Chapter 246: Preparing for War (Second Update, Asking for Subscriptions, Asking for Monthly Passes!) )
Beijing, Prince Rui's Mansion.
Dorgon was in a good mood.
Hanzhong sent a report, Chen said that Liu Jinzhong, the former general of the Western Army, led his troops to surrender.
Dolgon was overjoyed to hear this! What he valued was not the 10,000 people under Liu Jinzhong's command, but Liu Jinzhong's understanding of the garrison of the Western Army in Sichuan.
As a fierce general under Zhang Xianzhong, Liu Jinzhong can be said to be clear about the reality of the Western Army.
In this way, if the Qing army marches into Sichuan, it will be able to achieve a definite target and focus on the weak links and storm it.
Originally, Dolgon was still a little jealous of these peasant armies. But since Li Zicheng died in Jiugong Mountain, the last trace of jealousy has disappeared after the army scattered and fled for his life.
The combat effectiveness of the peasant army is not enough, Li Zicheng is dead, and Zhang Xianzhong will have to be awarded the head sooner or later.
When the Western Army was defeated depended on when the Qing Army entered Sichuan.
Sichuan will have to fight sooner or later, but it is not in a hurry.
At present, it is obvious that the small court of the remnants of the Ming Dynasty in the south is the main opponent of the Qing Dynasty.
After cleaning up the remnants, Dolgon could free up his hands to deal with Zhang Xianzhong.
That being the case, the problem is back to square one.
Dorgon decided it was time to start preparing for Vamin.
Fighting a war, especially such a large-scale war, is about money and food.
As the saying goes, the soldiers and horses go first before the grain and grass are moved, and the hundreds of thousands of troops eat horses and chew a day, and the supply of grain and grass for the army is particularly important.
Dolgon got a lot of grain from the Jin merchants, and prepared to extract all the grain from the government's stockpile.
Of course, it was not enough to do this, and in order to fight this battle, Dolgon did not hesitate to order the landlords in the Gyeonggi region to donate grain.
It is related to the national fortune of the Qing Dynasty, and it is not hesitated to do everything in the power of the whole country.
However, Dolgon could only raise food for the Qing army in Shandong. As for the Qing army in Shaanxi, Azig had to raise food on his own.
As for the commander of the army, Dolgon has also made a decision.
Shandong, on the other hand, let Lucketthun assist Duoduo.
As for the attack on Huguang, let Azig and Bolo together.
It is also time for young people to go to the battlefield and experience the experience of war.
The descendants of the Aixin Jueluo family are not cowards who can only shrink into the arms of women.
As for Hauge, Dorgon decided to continue with the cold treatment.
Of course, he knew that Hauge was holding his breath in his heart and wanted to go to the battlefield to prove himself.
But Dorgon wouldn't give him that chance.
The Manchus believed in the strong, and if Hauge made great military achievements, he would inevitably attract a lot of support. In addition, he is the eldest son of Huang Taiji, and there is no shortage of supporters in the two yellow flags. Dorgon feared that Haug would threaten his position as regent.
Only by chaining Hauge to the capital and under the nose of Dol will he feel at ease.
Dolgon was tired of subduing and balancing the various factions, and he didn't want Haug to jump out and cause him trouble again.

People are in good spirits when they are happy, and Chen Shuncai can smile between his eyebrows and eyes in the past few days.
Erya vomited non-stop a while ago, and Chen Shuncai found a doctor to treat her.
After diagnosis and treatment, it was discovered that Erya was not sick, but happy.
It turned out that after Chen Shuncai brought Erya back to Beijing from Guanzhong, he sang almost every night and was turned into a red wave.
After some hard work, Erya is finally pregnant!
Chen Shuncai learned that he was going to be a father, and he was in ecstasy, jumping and screaming in the yard and almost frightened Erya.
Although there is still a long time before production, Chen Shuncai does not let Erya do any more work for the sake of insurance. Not even cooking.
When he was in Liaodong, Chen Shuncai was just a lowly clothed aha who never thought that he would be able to marry a wife and have children.
Or even if he marries a wife and has children, his wife is also a coated minion, and his children are still coated minions, and they may be reprimanded by their masters or even lose their lives at any time.
Chen Shuncai felt that it was better not to marry a wife and have children than this.
Later, he was carried the flag and became a Han army flag bearer.
Since then, he has felt like a human being.
Since he is a human being, he should naturally have a wife and children by his side.
Chen Shuncai's mind was full of thoughts about grabbing a wife to inherit the family for him.
But things were always different from what he thought. Several times he went out to fight, Chen Shuncai didn't have a chance to rob women.
It wasn't until the attack on Guanzhong that Chen Shun met Erya.
From the first time he saw Erya, he knew that this was the person he was looking for.
Chen Shuncai decided to bring Erya back to Beijing no matter what.
But it's not easy to bring a woman to the barracks and get away with it.
Chen Shuncai racked his brains for this.
He changed Erya into a set of tattered clothes, and pasted horse manure and mud on her face.
Of course, shaving and braiding is also indispensable.
This can be difficult for a woman to accept, but it is a must.
If you want to follow Chen Shuncai back to Jingshi alive, you must accept these.
For this reason, Erya cried many times, and Chen Shuncai comforted her and allowed her to grow her hair back when she returned to Jingshi.
Er Ya endured it.
Fortunately, the hard days have finally passed, and Chen Shuncai and Erya can stay together all day long. Relying on the gold and silver he has robbed over the years, it is enough to live for the rest of his life.
For the first time, Chen Shuncai hoped that he would not fight again, so he lived with Erya so plainly.
"Erya, I'll go out and buy you something to eat, you stay at home and don't move!"
Chen Shuncai rubbed Erya's slightly bulging belly and said with tenderness.
"Hmm!"
Erya bit her lip and nodded lightly.
She really feels very lucky to be able to marry Chen Shuncai.
If she hadn't met Chen Shuncai, she would probably have starved to death or been raped to death.
In troubled times, there are only two kinds of fate for lonely and weak women.
"I'll go back as soon as I go."
Chen Shuncai was very reluctant to leave the house and walked towards the front yard.
As soon as he walked out of the gate, he met Liu Liangmin from the same Niu Lu.
The two have had a friendship for more than ten years, and when the food disaster in Liaodong was the most difficult, Chen Shuncai even gave Liu Liangmin half a piece of cake to save his life.
"Brother Chen came out to buy something for his sister-in-law again!"
Liu Liangmin took the initiative to say hello to Chen Shuncai.
"Yes, your sister-in-law likes to eat sour, I'll go buy some old vinegar and go back and make dumplings for her."
Chen Shuncai was in a very good mood and said with a smile.
"Ah, then Brother Chen, you can buy more rice by the way, I estimate that the price of rice will rise in a few days!"
Chen Shuncai frowned when he heard this.
Although he has some family background, he doesn't want the price of rice to rise.
As soon as the price of this rice rises, it will not stop, and even more silver will have to be emptied.
"Where did you hear that? Why is the price of rice rising again? ”
"Oh, Brother Chen, you still don't know? It's going to be war again! In this war, the rice on the market has to be supplied by the army, and the price will naturally rise wildly. I advise you to buy more as soon as possible! ”
Liu Liangmin persuaded kindly.
Bang!
Chen Shuncai's brain exploded, as if he had fallen into an ice cave in an instant.
"Another war?"
"But it's not, we have to fight Shandong after the New Year, and our Han army will definitely have to go to the red flag!"
