Chapter 108: Dolgon's Sharp Change
Mulan River Guard.
"Master, two hundred and seventy-one people died under the command of our army today." Doron frowned, bowed to Dolgon, and said:
Standing on the city wall, Dolgon looked into the distance with a frown, listened to what Duolun Gu said, and said in a slightly low tone: "Counting the losses during this time, our army has frozen to death and starved to death 8,678 people!" It won't work like this! The blow to the morale of our army this time is really too great! ”
As the soldiers and horses who originally conquered the Horqin region, since Dolgon was 'forced out' by Mang Gurtai and Fan Wencheng to be the introduction of the temptation of the Ming army in Liaodong, he began a sharp change process at a young age.
In just over a month, the soldiers and horses, which were once no more than 20,000 people, have expanded into a mixed army of more than 70,000 people.
Although it is said that in the Horqin region, the soldiers and horses led by Mang Gurtai and Yue Tuo have suffered extremely serious losses, but in the process, Dolgon has experienced a fast lane that others have never experienced.
Because it was used as a bait by the Mang Gurtai and them, Dolgon also made full use of this, which also made him follow the Horqin region as the center, and began to spread the entire tentacles to the Monan region, which also made him begin to accumulate strength continuously in the process of fighting and cruising.
Different from Daishan's categorical way of commanding the army, for the soldiers and horses he gathered in the grassland, Dolgon adopted a control method centered on the bloodline hub.
With the soldiers and horses under his command as the backbone, and the captured steppe cavalry as filling, he was able to gather such an army of more than 70,000 people in a short period of time!
When the Liaodong Ming Army, the Monan Frontier Command and the Horqin Frontier Command, converged into one place, and beat Mang Gurtai and them could not gain a foothold in the Horqin region, and were forced to really lead the army back to Longdu, Dolgon did not follow Mang Gurtai and them to return to Longdu, but chose Mulan Hewei as the nearest station.
Because through this period of conquest, Dolgon also learned some information, for the current experience of the Qing Dynasty, in his heart expressed very unoptimistic, because according to his understanding of the Ming army in Liaodong, for Zhao Zongwu, this battle Zhao Zongwu and they will definitely not let go of it, such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
According to Dolgon's idea, just a place outside the country, the Liaodong Ming Army dared to invest such soldiers and horses, and came to confront the elite of the Qing Dynasty, so in the process of the game, as the number one person in charge of the Liaodong Ming Army, Zhao Zongwu would definitely not let go of this counterattack!
It is precisely because of this understanding that Dolgon's heart is extremely uneasy.
On the one hand, Dolgon is actually very disgusted with Dai Shan, Mang Gurtai and the like, because he knows very well in his heart that Dai Shan and they all regard him as an object to be used, in order to be able to contribute to their own strength, on the other hand, because he grew up beside his father Khan, it also makes Dolgon in his bones, and he is particularly identified with the Jurchen race, which is the cognitive power of the race!
In the course of the conquest of Korqin, with the continuous increase of soldiers and horses under his command, Dolgon's heart slowly began to breed thoughts that he had never had.
If this Qing Dynasty is led by him, will it be better?
Perhaps, in the eyes of some, Dolgon's thoughts are just a sign of youthful vigor.
But Dolgon does have such capital.
At such an age, he can easily lead an army of more than 70,000 people, mediate with the enemy in an unfamiliar territory, and still be able to achieve uninterrupted victories, which in itself represents Dorgon's rare and valuable talent.
Some people are born like this.
Like Dorgon, he was born to fight!
It was precisely because of this idea in his heart that Dolgon did not follow Mang Gultai and them back to the Dragon Capital, but instead went to Mulan Hewei to garrison it.
Duolun Gu said: "There are already seven batches of soldiers and horses sent out by the slaves to urge grain and grass, even if there are more Liaodong Ming troops besieging in the Longdu region, there will be one or two soldiers and horses entering Longdu." ”
Although Zhao Zongwu and them carried out an all-round encirclement of the so-called Longdu region of the Qing Dynasty, in order to further digest the territory that had been captured by the periphery, Zhao Zongwu did not strictly defend the Longdu, he told Fan Tianxiong, who was in charge of this matter, to strictly control the traffic points in the Longdu region, and only monitor and garrison the city of Jiannu Longdu, the purpose of this is to let most of the soldiers and horses of Jiannu be forced to stay here to confront it!
In this way, some of the soldiers and horses of Jiannu will inevitably be able to break out of the encirclement of the Chinese army.
But what is there about it?
As long as it can weaken Jiannu's foundation in the core realm, even if it takes a long time, Zhao Zongwu is willing to spend it here.
Because the longer it takes, the stronger his control over the region will become!
Dolgon narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "This matter is not something that he can make all the decisions on behalf of Shan, for Zhao Zongwu, the current situation is exactly what he wants to see from the bottom of his heart, his purpose is to consume the foundation of my Qing Dynasty, in the face of such a dilemma, no matter who makes the choice in his heart, this is not an easy thing." ”
With the fighting in the Korqin region, and with the death of Azig in battle, the once young Dolgon has disappeared, and has been replaced by a scheming Dolgon.
Where there is no one, in front of only the servants who are loyal to him, Dorgon will call Daishan by his first name.
Because in his heart, he already looks down on Dai Shan very much!
It's not impossible to have the mind to replace it!
After all, this position of the Great Qing Dynasty once belonged to him!!
After a moment of silence, Dolgon continued: "Now such a cold climate, it is not the time for the two armies to fight, once the weather becomes warmer, I am afraid that the unfavorable situation for our Qing Dynasty will come again, so we must do everything we can to prevent this from happening, or we need to fish in troubled waters, in such a golden opportunity, continue to grow under our command!" ”
Since this is already a place for men to play games, how to strengthen themselves depends on their own means, this is the true psychological portrayal of Dolgon at the moment!
