Chapter 632: The Great Qing Dynasty wants to form an alliance with the Liukou

Hearing Bumu Butai's words, Dolgon was a little stunned for a while, obviously he didn't react immediately.

"Da Yu'er, what do you mean by that? Do you want me to join forces with the Qing Dynasty? How can this be made! Besides, the Qing Dynasty only reached a peace agreement with the Ming Dynasty last year, and the two countries began normal exchanges and peaceful trade ......"

"I can't do it." Bumu Butai interrupted him, and at the same time looked directly at his flickering eyes, and said with a sneer: "Prince Rui, everything needs to be changed, and Encore is so persistent. Thinking of my Qing Dynasty, it is the orthodoxy of the dynasty that God has clocked, and of course it cannot be compared with those miscellaneous rogues. But now, although our Qing Dynasty is located in Liaodong, and those who started from the northwest Liukou, it seems that they can't fight with eight poles, but our goal is completely the same in attacking the Ming Dynasty and seeking common interests. Thinking about the thief leader Li Zicheng, now the Ming Dynasty is attacking Kexian County, sweeping its northern land, and the wealth and population obtained are unimaginable. Such a good thing, how can he be left alone, and I can only sit on the ground and watch. Could it be that they are now eating a lot of meat, and we are not allowed to drink soup? “

She paused for a moment and continued: "As for the peace agreement with the Ming Dynasty. Originally, it was just a temporary measure, if it is useful, it will be made, and if it is useless, it will be thrown away, Prince Rui, can you still take it seriously? Now the Ming Dynasty army has been defeated even in battles, and even the capital is about to be lost, it is the momentum of the drum to break the beating of 10,000 people, we don't take the opportunity to get a piece of the pie, take the opportunity to seek greater interests and benefits for ourselves, do we still have to stick to a dead letter, and give up the low-hanging fruit in vain? “

Listening to Bumu Butai's clear and lustful words, a complicated look flashed on Dolgon's face, and he once again felt that this woman's complex and cold heart seemed to be even more incomprehensible to himself.

Dolgon coughed lightly and subconsciously asked, "Da Yu'er, what do you mean?" “

"The intention of this palace is to let me send a messenger to the Qing Dynasty as soon as possible to contact Li Zicheng and tell him that I am willing to become an ally with him and fight against the Ming Dynasty with him. Subsequently, we can also deal with our greatest enemy, Li Xiao. We can let Li Zicheng occupy the entire northern part of the Ming Dynasty, and the condition of our alliance is that Ningyuan and the Xuanfu North Road, where Li Xiao is located, will be seized by our Qing Dynasty, and Li Zicheng's troops must not be blocked or opposed. “

"It's just, will Li Zicheng agree to these conditions?" Dolgon frowned, then shook his head, "From the point of view of this king, I am afraid that it will be extremely difficult for me to form an alliance with Li Zicheng in the Qing Dynasty. You must know that now that Li Zicheng, who has just established a puppet country, is extremely powerful, and can launch 500,000 troops to attack the Ming court in the north and south, and the limelight is strong, which can be compared! After that, it went all the way, even down Shanxi, Xuanfu, Beizhili and other places, and took advantage of the situation to take the Beijing Division, it was when the arrogant Xuantian got carried away, they probably thought that they would be willing to form an alliance with our army if they swallowed it together with Ningyuan and Xuanfu North Road? “

Listening to Dolgon's hesitant words, Bumu Butai smiled coldly again, and she replied in a deep voice: "Prince Rui, from the perspective of this palace, although Li Zicheng seems to be powerful and incomparable now, his real combat power is definitely inferior to Li Xiao's Tang Army. Bengong once remembered that last year, Li Zicheng's troops invaded Henan, and they were defeated by Li Xiao and fled, and they took a year of rest in Shaanxi to recover. This palace dared to predict that Li Zicheng must have lingering fears against Li Xiao and his subordinate Tang Army, and must hope that multiple assistants can deal with Li Xiao together, and this is the basis for our alliance with them. “

"Taking a step back, Li Zicheng's troops swept away the garbage-like Ming army, but if he wanted to take the Xuanfu North Road, which was garrisoned by the Dingbei Battalion of the Tang Army, it would be easier said than done! I wanted to come to my Qing Dynasty and let the long-experienced Prince Yu Duoduo lead 50,000 elite soldiers to attack a Zhenyuan Fort garrisoned by the Dingbei Battalion Branch, but he was defeated. Li Zicheng's department wants to take Jintangcheng, an important town on Xuanfu North Road, which Li Xiao has been operating for many years, and he will definitely meet and break the bloodstream, and it will be difficult to win. “

"As for the Ningyuan place where Wu Sangui is stationed, it is related to Ning Tie's cavalry guarding the city, and it is also very elite and brave. Although there is no Tang Jun to help, he has me to rely on. If we do a good job and become Wu Sangui's helper and help, when the Liukou comes to capture Ningyuan, let the battle-hardened warriors of the Eight Banners of the Great Qing Kingdom help Wu Sangui, Li Zicheng will only be defeated in the city, and there is no possibility of capturing Ningyuan. Therefore, if we can benefit Li Zichengxiao and let him understand that it is absolutely impossible for him to want to monopolize the benefits. With the reality in front of us, this palace believes that Li Zicheng is not a fool, and he will eventually agree to our suggestion. “

Bumu Butai's words were analyzed very reasonably, and Dolgon nodded frequently.

"Very good, Da Yu'er, you are right. In the past few days, the king of Naben has sent envoys from the Mongolian tribes to enter the Ming realm to meet with Li Zicheng. As long as he can reach an agreement with Li Zicheng and realize the cooperation between the two powers, at this time, Li Xiao's guy, even if he can jump again, what can he do. “

"Exactly. As long as we can form an alliance with Li Zicheng and ensure that the two armies work together to deal with Li Xiao's gang, then we can not only rely on the obstruction and conspiracy of the rogues, but also finally take Ningyuan and Xuanfu North Road. And the Mongolian tribes that have changed their minds will also be subjugated by our Qing Dynasty after they are blocked from the Tang army by the joint efforts of our Qing Dynasty and Liukou. In the future, I will concentrate on recuperation for a period of time, and I will definitely be able to re-enter the Central Plains and build an immortal deed. In this way, the last wishes of the two generations of emperors will finally be fulfilled in our hands. And our Qing Empire will also enter the real heyday from now on. Such a great opportunity, Encore misses! “

When Bumu Butai said this, his face was shining, and his eyes were full of longing.

This important event was agreed upon, and Dolgon Fu lingered with Bumu Butai for a long time before returning from the Yanqing Palace.

The next day, Dolgon made arrangements to transfer Fan Wencheng, who was negotiating with Li Xiao, back on the grounds of ineffective negotiations, and appointed Ning Wanme as the chief envoy of the negotiations, and sent Gao Hongzhong, a scholar, as the deputy envoy, to Haicheng to continue the pretense of negotiations.

He then appointed Fan Wencheng, who had been transferred back, as the chief envoy to negotiate with the Liukou, and sent Bao Chengxian as his deputy envoy, intending to enter Mongolia with him from the Liaohe Hetao area, and then through the Mongol tribes, and from Shanxi, to meet with Li Zicheng's troops.

At the same time, Dolgon also strengthened the control of Shengjing City, especially Hao Zeren, the secret agent that Li Xiao planted in Shengjing, and sent heavy troops to guard it and closely monitor it, so as to prevent him from leaking the news without authorization and going out of the city to report to Li Xiao.

Dorgon thought that he had done a perfect job and could completely fool Li Xiao. But what he did was really three hundred taels of silver here, which made Li Xiao, who didn't think about it at the beginning, suddenly suspicious.

Because Li Xiao knew that Fan Wencheng, as the first strategist under Dolgon, had also saved his life during the Huang Taiji period and saved him from being killed by the Huang Taiji, so Dolgon has always attached great importance to him, and it can even be said that he obeys his words. Therefore, on such a major matter as negotiating with the Tang Army, Dolgon went against the norm and angrily reprimanded the strategist and transferred him back, which was definitely not the so-called ineffective negotiation, but must have been for another reason.

So, what would be the reason for the Qing court to do this?

You must know that although there are fights within the Qing court now, they are generally stable, and there are no large-scale turmoil or anything like that in the country. Then why did Dolgon rush to transfer Fan Wencheng back to China?

Li Xiao thought about it, and finally he thought of it very uneasily in his heart.

That is, it is very likely that in the Ming Dynasty, a very important and terrible thing happened, and Dolgon urgently needed to send Fan Wencheng, the first strategist, back, in order to discuss countermeasures with him as soon as possible, so as to quickly deal with the affairs of the Ming Dynasty.

So, in the middle school of the Ming Dynasty, what has happened to the present, and what is the specific situation?

Li Xiao actually didn't know.

It's a pity that now I am in these newly occupied places in Liaodong, and I can't get the latest information from Shandong, and the sea route is blocked, so the transmission of information can be said to be very difficult. Therefore, the changes in the domestic situation can only be understood that Li Zicheng has now established the country in Shaanxi and Gansu. In the past month or so, Li Xiao has no way of knowing what the latest movements Li Zicheng has.

It's just that now, he can intuitively feel that the Ming Dynasty must be turbulent and the situation has changed greatly, and perhaps, the whole situation is moving in a very unfavorable direction for the Ming Dynasty.

Then, as in real history, Liukou has already crossed the Yellow River eastward and begun a full-scale attack on the Ming Dynasty.

Thinking of this, Li Xiao's heart was full of heaviness.

Li Xiao's worries were officially confirmed three days later.

On this day, Xu Gao and others, who set off from the Dagu ferry port in Hejian Prefecture in Tianjin, finally rushed to Haicheng to meet Li Xiao after a hard and lucky journey.

Xu Gao, who looked haggard in the dust, couldn't help but shed tears when he entered the Haicheng official office and saw Li Xiao who came out of it proudly.

What Li Xiao didn't expect was that the chief eunuch who was holding the edict and holding the Heavenly Constitution in his mouth, after seeing him, he burst into tears instantly, looking extremely sad.

And when Li Xiao took a few steps forward and was about to kneel down to receive the order, the eunuch Xu Gao actually took the first step and pounced, but knelt down in front of Li Xiao in advance.

"King Tang! His Royal Highness the King of Tang! Your Majesty is now in danger, we beg you, send troops back to China as soon as possible, and go to save Your Majesty! If it's one step later, our family is only afraid, only afraid of ......"

Xu Gao was in tears, his voice was so sad that he couldn't speak, he held high the holy decree made of Ming Huanghu silk with both hands, and dedicated it to Li Xiao with an extremely respectful attitude.

Xu Gao's remarks were completely inconsistent with etiquette, and it could even be said that he completely subverted the hierarchical relationship, which made the officials, including Li Xiao, stunned.

This, what's going on?

Could it be that the current imperial court has reached the point where it is precarious and tired like an egg, so that Xu Gao is so eager that he loses his temper?

"Father-in-law Xu, you don't have to be like this, please get up quickly. There are many people here, and it is not a place to speak, so you will follow this king into the living room to speak. Li Xiao looked solemn, took a step forward, took the holy decree from Xu Gao's hand, and stretched out his hand to help Xu Gao.

Xu Gao got up crying, choked and wiped away his tears, and followed Li Xiao straight into the living room.

In the living room, Li Xiao was almost finished reading the holy decree, his face suddenly became more and more solemn, and the hands holding the holy decree were trembling slightly, and finally he sighed, put down the holy decree, and said nothing.

"Tang Wang, now Liukou dispatched 500,000 troops, has captured Shanxi, Xuanfu, and most of the North Zhili, my Ming official army has been defeated in battles, and is about to quickly besiege and attack the Beijing Division, and the foreign soldiers and horses have not returned to help, if the Tang King does not immediately return to protect the Beijing Division, then the old slave is only afraid, only afraid ......"

When Xu Gao said this, he couldn't say anything anymore, and two muddy old tears came out of his eyes again.

Li Xiao looked at Xu Gao's behavior coldly, and his heart could be described as mixed.

If you're worried that something will happen, then it's almost certain to happen. - Murphy's Law.

What I feared the most finally happened.

The corrupt and incompetent Ming army, under such a fierce offensive of the Liukou, was defeated for thousands of miles, and the city was lost and lost the land, and finally let the Liukou fight from Shaanxi to the Beijing Division in just over a month.

In this way, it seems that the offensive of the rogues is completely consistent with the real history.

And what is even more speechless is that in this world that he has crossed over, the time when the Liukou attacked eastward and swept all the way to Jingshi was more than half a year earlier than in real history.

This was completely unexpected.

Speaking of which, for Emperor Chongzhen, Li Xiao's feelings are very complicated.

I think that at the beginning, I was just a village hunter, and after joining the army, I relied on my own efforts to climb up step by step. From 100 households, 1,000 households, commanders, to the general soldiers, Chifengbo, the Marquis of the East China Sea, the Duke of Tang, the King of Pingliao, until now the Prince of the Ming Dynasty Tang King and Prince Taifu, this long list of shining titles, although they are all obtained by their own struggle, but it is the emperor Chongzhen in the court, who appreciates and promotes himself, so that in more than ten years, he has finally become the Prince of the Ming Dynasty from a country grass man with no status to a person above 10,000 people.

What's more, in order to win over himself, Chongzhen not only gave himself such a glorious title, but also married the lord of King Lu and his own daughter Princess Kunxing to himself. Now he is not only the prince of the Ming Dynasty, but also the emperor's concubine, the honor and dignity of this identity, which can be called the founding of the Ming Dynasty, unprecedented, the only one.

Although in the process of his own development, Chongzhen has also had conflicts with himself, and he has even met with himself because of the issue of Taiwan's ownership. But in the final analysis, these contradictions are in the past, and it makes no sense to bring them up now.

Receiving the grace of dripping water, it should be reciprocated with a spring, not to mention, Chongzhen is of great significance for maintaining the mess of the Courage Dynasty and preventing the situation from deteriorating further. Therefore, whether it is public or private, we cannot sit idly by.

"Father-in-law Xu, don't worry, although this king is not talented, he is willing to lead his own soldiers to save His Majesty!"

Li Xiao looked directly into Xu Gao's eyes, word by word, and said this sentence clearly.
