Chapter 382: Liaoxi is in danger! The Qing Dynasty is in danger!
"Zhongtang, this is the Tang newspaper of Ningyuan Middle School...... It's a fire ......"
Zhang Chengzhong, who is also a confidant of Fan Wencheng, a scholar of the Inner Secretariat, was following Fan Wencheng's buttocks, holding a stack of official documents in his hand and flipping through it. In Ningyuan City, there was still a bunch of people in the lobby of a yamen occupied by Fan Wencheng, the minister of the Qin Mission, all of whom were officials of the Guanning Military System who stayed in Ningyuan, and they were listening to Fan Daqin's assignment of tasks.
"Is all the grain packed into trucks? This is more than 2,000 miles, don't want to go in two months, people eat horses along the way! How much is this batch going to go? Are there 20,000 people? One person prepared at least one stone of flour, as well as the essence for the mules and horses to eat. We have to be a little wider, we would rather have more than less! β
"Is the army ready to escort? Although they walked on the ground of the Great Qing Kingdom all the way, they were not at ease on the Monan grassland...... This flag and that flag are not easy to mess with, be careful! β
"How much silk and satin cloth are there? The Northwest is in dire need of these ...... You don't have to bring more silver, but you can't do less with silk and satin. Along the way, you will meet those Mongolian princes Beyler, and you can keep you safe by sending a little. In case of lack of food, mules and horses, you can still exchange them for some. Don't say you don't! Those sand boats on the Beiyang Sea come and go, but there is no shortage of things to sell to you! β
"What about the crops in the field? You don't have to worry about it, the regent will naturally send the clothed minions of the Eight Banners to collect it, so you can go on the road with peace of mind, the king of Pingxi has already made no arrangements for you in Ningxia and Gansu. β
Fan Wencheng's Daqincha was originally in charge of the relocation - although Dolgon had already approved the relocation of the Guanning family on the Liaoxi side, Wu Sangui's implementation was a bit slow. It's hard to leave the house, and it's still going to Ningxia and Gansu, if you want to go to Jiangnan, everyone will be happy on the road......
Besides, we sowed seeds once this spring, but now it's only early summer, so we can't harvest it! So everyone wants to wait for the autumn harvest before leaving.
But Dolgon couldn't wait - after the autumn harvest, the sky would be cold, and then there would be a cold wind on the Monan grassland, how could he go? Even if a man can hold on, what will happen to the livestock? After walking for two or three months, you can't eat on the road! If you really want to go that far, you must not go on the road after the autumn harvest, and you should set off in summer at the latest. If you really want to delay the autumn harvest, you will have to go on the road in the spring of next year (Meng Chun and Zhongchun can't do it, you have to feed the livestock to fatten up before you can go), but now that the war between the Ming and Qing dynasties is about to break out, how can Dolgon wait so long? So he sent Fan Wencheng, a scholar of the Inner Secretarial Academy, to Ningyuan as the minister of the Imperial Mission.
After Fan Wencheng was busy, he was already a little dizzy and his throat hurt. He is not young, and his health is not very good, he was recuperating before the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, and now he is working with illness. So he found a chair and sat down slowly, and looked at his attachΓ© Zhang Chengzhong holding a copy of the Tang newspaper, and frowned a little.
"Where did you send it?"
"Ningyuan's Zhonghou is a military affairs ......"
"Nonsense!" Fan Wencheng waved his hand, "Don't look at it...... I was in charge of the relocation, and the military affairs were sent to the head of Shengjing's yamen. β
The governor of Shengjing is the predecessor of General Shengjing, which was established when the Qing Dynasty moved its capital to Beijing, and the first governor was Dolgon's henchman He Luohui. The present governor is the second and a man of Dolgon, whose name is Yekeshu. The military affairs of Liaodong are all under his control, and Fan Wencheng should not interfere.
"Zhongtang, you don't care about this, you should know about it......"
"What's the matter?" Fan Wencheng Fan Dazhongtang frowned, so he had to take the Tang Bao over to take a look, this look was terrible. A pretty big bachelor, he jumped up right away, "What? The sailors of the Southern Army have arrived at Juehua Island......"
It turned out that this pond was sent by Niu Lu, a Eight Banners Han Army stationed in Ningyuan, and the reported matter was that Juehua Island was captured by the Daming Water Division!
Although Yu Daren blocked the news as much as possible, he still didn't hide it for too long. Because the fishermen on Juehua Island regularly send seafood to Ning Yuanzhonghou, after Ning Yuanzhong gets the seafood, they will pick out the best products and salt them, and then send them to Beijing...... That's how the salted fish on the table of the little emperor of Shunzhi and Aunt Bumu Butai came from.
Now that no one sends seafood, what should the little emperor do if he wants to eat salted fish? Therefore, Niu Lu, who was stationed in Ningyuan Middle School, did not dare to delay, and immediately sent a ship to sea. It doesn't matter if you go to sea this time, you will immediately find the sand boats of the Beiyang Navy Division patrolling around Juehua Island.
Don't look at the Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers coaxing on land, they didn't take the Ming Army seriously. But at sea, it was really a mouse who saw the cat and quickly ran back...... In fact, they didn't need to run so fast, because they encountered a sand boat with limited speed, and it was not a tailwind at that time, so they couldn't catch up at all.
Of course, if they encounter a centipede warship, they don't have to run, because they can't run at all, so they surrender if they want to live!
"No, this official has to go and take a look......" Fan Wencheng put down the Tang newspaper and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.
"Zhongtang, where are you going?" Zhang Chengzhong asked.
"Of course it's Juehua Island!" Fan Wencheng gritted his teeth and looked serious, "If you don't see it with your own eyes, how do you know how many soldiers the Southern Dynasty has sent?" This must be figured out! β
"Zhong, Zhong, Zhongtang ......" Zhang Chengzhong was frightened by Fan Wencheng, "You can't go!" Although I am invincible on land in the Qing Dynasty, but the sailor is not as good as the Southern Dynasty, you are a bachelor in the Qing Dynasty, in case there is something bad, how can the lower official explain to the regent? β
Fan Wencheng stroked his beard, "That's right......" He suddenly turned his head to look at Zhang Chengzhong, showing an expectant smile, "Chongyi, you are my loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty, right?" β
Zhang Chengzhong was stunned, and then he understood something, so he had to nod with tears in his eyes.
He is a native of Guangningwei, and most of the family died when Guangningwei fell, and the rest became clothed servants and were arranged in the Zhenghong Banner. He was still young at the time, but he was smart and clever, and he had also read books, so he took a fancy to Fan Wencheng, who was also a Zhenghongqi, and became a scholar. Under the promotion of Fan Wencheng, this soared and became a review of the internal secretary's house.
He must repay such a great kindness! Now is the time to repay......
"Good! I was not mistaken! Fan Wencheng smiled, "You can go with confidence...... If anything, I will take care of your wife and daughter, and you can rest assured.
But don't be afraid, you are a native of Liaoxi, you look dark and thick, not like a literati. It is completely possible to pretend to be a merchant who buys fish to go to the island, and even if he is caught, he should not be killed. β
I have to say that Fan Wencheng can still anticipate things. His henchman Zhang Chengzhong really came back with all his beard and tail, and he didn't even ask anyone to cut the tail of the money rat on the back of his head - he can't go back if he cuts his braids, right?
So Zhang Chengzhong not only came back with braids, but also brought back some very valuable information!
Hmm, the Northern Expedition launched by the Southern Dynasties from the sea is probably serious! The occupation of Kyaw Hwa Island is just the beginning...... Liaoxi is in danger! The Qing Dynasty is in danger!
......
"Dolgon, Dolgon, wake up......"
That night, in a daze, Dolgon, who was asleep, heard someone calling his name...... Who is it? Is Dolgon's name called casually? Dorgon, who was half-asleep and half-awake, was pondering when suddenly there was a stinging pain in his face, and someone was pulling his beard!
"Who!" Dorgon shouted, and his little eyes finally opened, still a little angry.
The regent's beard can be pulled casually?
"I, Queen Mother!"
An aunt's face appeared in front of Dolgon's eyes, and it turned out to be the Queen Mother of the Virgin, Bumu Butai......
"Bumu Butai......" Dolgon looked at the anxious expression on his beloved aunt's face, and immediately asked with concern, "Is it the emperor who ......?"
The little emperor of Shunzhi has been sick for the past two days...... Seven-year-old boy, sick and sick may be that or something! What can I do?
"What do you want?" Bumu Butai glared at him, "Fan Wencheng is here!" There is a big incident in Liaoxi, and the army of the Southern Dynasty has reached Liaoxi......"
