In recent years, the weather in Beijing has already fallen below freezing, and the outside of Wuying Hall is silvery white, and the snow is half a foot thick. Therefore, the serious dynasty is no longer done, that is, a few important ministers go to the Wuying Hall to discuss a government in front of the little emperor of Shunzhi, this is the so-called council of ministers of the king of parliament.

Because it wasn't a big court, the etiquette was a lot sloppy, and Dolgon didn't stand, but sat on a chair next to Shunzhi's children, squinting and smiling.

"The New Year is here in a blink of an eye, and the various yamen below estimate that they won't do anything, and there are not many pieces of music sent up, and this king has seen it, so it doesn't matter...... Most of them are thieves and disasters, and they are all easy to do, but they are nothing more than killing and starving to death! There are two things I want to talk to you about.

First, when the Jin merchants entered Beijing, Prince Yu and Prince Ying handed over the excerpts, saying that this Shanxi battle was thanks to Fan Yongdou, Wang Dengku, Jin Liangyu, Wang Dayu, Liang Guest, Tian Shenglan, Zhai Tang, Huang Yunfa and Jia Bus, a total of nine Jin merchants. In addition to Taigu Jabus, the other eight Jin merchants have been in contact with our Qing Dynasty for many years, and have provided us with a lot of news and urgently needed materials for the Southern Army, which is indispensable!

And Taigu Giabs is also a hero, the king of Pingxi went south to Luoyang thanks to him for providing grain, grass, military supplies, and helped buy a lot of cities, and Prince Yu also got his help in Taiyuan. So they put him side by side with the eight...... There are a total of nine imperial merchants, so let's call them to Beijing after the New Year. There must be businessmen here in Beijing, otherwise it would be too inconvenient. Moreover, Tianjin still has foreign maritime trade to operate, and it is not possible without merchants! If you don't think there's a problem, just do it. ”

No problem! Jabbs is here, is it okay? This Ninth Emperor Shang who suddenly appeared and helped Wu Sangui a lot, how could it be okay?

However, at this time, the kings and ministers in the main hall did not hear the name of Jabus, so no one felt that it was wrong.

Besides, whether it is the Eight Great Emperor Merchants or the Nine Great Emperor Merchants, they are all just slaves, what does one more or one less count?

Seeing that the kings and ministers didn't say anything, Dolgon continued: "The second is the direction of the use of troops after the New Year!" Hauge and Ao worshiped the fold and said that they were going south...... Duoduo and Wu Sangui also made an excerpt and said that they would go west. Let's discuss, should we go south or go west? ”

"Regent, Hauge and Aobai are not proposing to go south, but to the east." Prince Zheng Jierharang was the first to speak, "After crossing the Huai River, it is the real south...... Haoge and Aobai only wanted to seize the north of the Huai River. Even if it is the pattern of the two dynasties of the north and the south, the land of Huaibei is also a must. ”

"Well, it's a must!" Dolgon smiled, "This king didn't say he wouldn't take it!" Is it just the right one to take next spring? ”

"Regent," Fan Wencheng said, "the servants have received news that the Southern Dynasties are also working hard to carry out reforms these days. The new army has been expanded to 100,000, and the Yangtze River Naval Division and the Beiyang Naval Division have also been formed. In addition, the crown prince of the Southern Dynasty is still grasping land, population, and business taxes! It is said that no less than 50 million acres of land have been obtained......"

"Not bad, not bad!" Dorgon nodded repeatedly, "What a ruthless character!" Lord Zheng, do you think that if we don't defeat Li Zicheng and concentrate all our strength, we will be able to defeat Prince Zhu's Southern Dynasty? ”

"But Li Zicheng is not easy to deal with!" It was Luo Luohun who spoke, he was Dai Shan's grandson, the flag owner of the red flag, "The battle of Shanhaiguan was very fierce, and the battle of Huaiqing-Zhending was very skillful...... If it weren't for Wu Sangui copying their back road, maybe they would still be tossing on the edge of the Yellow River! ”

Dolgon smiled: "Li Zicheng's murder in Shanhaiguan is because his old battalion soldiers are all elite soldiers who have fought for a long time, and they have the ability, and they have just captured Beijing, they think they have won the world, and their morale is high, so naturally they will not admit defeat easily, so we will fall into a bitter battle."

And their later coincidence was because Li Zicheng had no foundation and did not dare to lose his troops again! Otherwise, as long as they fought another tough battle in Zhending Mansion, Wu Sangui would still be so obedient? Will the Northern Expedition of the Prince of the Zhu Family be anticlimactic? This Li Zicheng has been scared by us and has become a soft persimmon. So we have to take advantage of his opportunity to completely defeat him!

And Zhu Cihong's kid is not afraid of us at all, and he dares to tease the king with marriage, and looking at his governance and training in the southeast, he is quite disciplined and has laid a very solid foundation. This is difficult to deal with, we must first level Li Zicheng, and then concentrate on dealing with it.

In addition, Li Zicheng is now blindly seeking tricks to avoid war, so it cannot be ruled out that he will run away again...... If he abandons Guanzhong without a fight, we will have a great chance! ”

"Regent, how could Li Zicheng abandon Guanzhong?" Zilharang shook his head, "Guanzhong is his lair!" ”

"Hehe," Dolgon sneered, "he has a lair too?" Although he became the emperor, he was still a rogue, and he didn't have a good life to run the territory at all. So we have to seize the opportunity to get him out of Guanzhong while he hasn't run yet! ”

"Where?" Zilharang asked again.

"Huguang!" Dolgon stroked his beard, "This is a plan to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf, this is how Cao Cao in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" dealt with Liu Bei!" ”

Of course, Dolgon is a military strategist who is familiar with "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but the art of war in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is sometimes quite useful!

"Regent, who is going to drive Li Zicheng away?"

"Wu Sangui!" Dolgon smiled, "It must be Wu Sangui, who fought from Tongguan." At the same time, supplemented by partial divisions, they marched from the Monan grassland and attacked Yulin and Yan'an. ”

The terrain of Shaanxi is indeed relatively dangerous for the Central Plains army. Holding the two mouths of Tongguan and Wuguan, it will be difficult for the enemy to invade from the direction of the Central Plains.

However, for the Qing Dynasty, which controlled Monan and Mobei Mongolia, it was useless to hold Tongguan and Wuguan. People can invade from Yulin Town on the northern line and directly copy Li Zicheng's back road.

If Li Zicheng didn't dare to take his old book out to fight to the death, then he would have to abandon Guanzhong and go south to Huguang.

"Wu Sanguiken?"

Dorgon laughed, "Ken! Haoge and Ao Bai have placed 50,000 troops on the edge of the Yellow River, do he dare to do it? Now this king does not let Haoge and Ao worship the east into Shandong for this! If they enter Shandong, who will chase the tiger Wu Sangui? ”

These ministers are all satisfied! Dolgon, the regent, is really a master of the essence of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and a "tiger and wolf" are all played.
