Chapter 67: Omit South

"So how do you fight the Southern Dynasty now?" Dai Shan said.

"I have a solution," said Dodor. Xiangyang is a strong city in the world, and now I also heard that the Xiangyang line reported that the Xia army is building Xiangyang City, looking at the posture, it is almost about to demolish Xiangyang City and rebuild it. ”

"In the future, if you want to attack, it will only be more uncomfortable."

"Therefore, you can't attack the Southern Dynasty from Xiangyang."

"In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the strategy of Jin to destroy Wu can be used."

When Duoduo said this, many people recalled. Luo Luohun couldn't help but say: "Attack Zhang Xianzhong first." ”

"Yes. Captured Zhang Xianzhong, lived upstream, built a water division, and then went straight down the river to break the Xia army. Dodor said.

If Zhang Xuan was here, he would definitely be able to break out in a cold sweat.

Shu was the weak link of the Xia army.

Shutou, Chu waist, and Wu tail add up to a complete north-south defense line.

In today's Great Xia, Chu Waist and Wu Wei have been completed, but Shutou is in the hands of Zhang Xianzhong, and Zhang Xianzhong is now fighting with Yang Zhan, the chief military officer of the Ming Dynasty. Zhang Xianzhong's position in Sichuan is not stable at all.

This is also the reason why Zhang Xianzhong did not send troops to rescue at all in this war.

With Zhang Xianzhong's current situation, he has no strength to support Luo Rucai at all.

Dodor's choice was wonderful. The combat effectiveness of the Great Western Army is definitely not comparable to that of the Xia Army. After all, one is being chased by Zuo Liangyu, and the other is chasing Zuo Liangyu everywhere, and it is naturally clear who is up and who is down.

The Qing army stormed Sichuan, and it will definitely be able to occupy the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and it will be much easier to let the boat go east when the time comes.

Dorgon listened to Dodor and nodded. Absolutely Duoduo's analysis was right, and he immediately shook his head and said, "No, the current situation can't support an expedition. ”

Then Dorgon counted 1510, and the expenses were quite large.

Incorporated all kinds of surrendered troops and organized them into the Green Battalion, that is, the national economic strength in the late Manchu Qing Dynasty. In Dolgon's planning, the Eight Banners, including the Manchurian Eight Banners, the Han Eight Banners, and the Mongolian Eight Banners and the 24 Banners, totaled more than 200,000 soldiers and soldiers, all of whom were the Central Army.

And the hundreds of thousands of troops that have been incorporated have been dismantled, and those that can be dismantled have been dismantled. If you can't do it, you will be put in order, and then you will be stationed in various places along the border. As a place to suppress the first wave of force. It is also the time when the enemy attacks, waiting for reinforcements, waiting for the Eight Banners to send troops.

And when the brigade marches, it can also recruit all kinds of green battalions to conscript.

To complete such a change, and to complete some disaster relief for the northern prefectures, whether natural disasters or military disasters, and to quell rebellions in various parts of the north, whatever the reason, will require money, and money will not fly over itself.

Although Dolgon took the 60 million taels of silver left by Li Zicheng, he could still support it for a while.

But immediately after a big battle, another expedition was prepared. Far beyond Dorgon's power. The national strength of the Manchus could not be supported.

Hauge said: "Without further ado, now that the new emperor of the Southern Dynasty has ascended the throne, it is the time to want stability. If you don't take advantage of this time to attack Sichuan and occupy a geographical advantage, it will be difficult to fight for Sichuan when the Southern Dynasties react. ”

Dolgon gritted his teeth and said, "Next year, next year to Sichuan." ”

Dolgon gritted his teeth at this time, but what made him more uncomfortable was that Haug seemed to be very interested in the matter, and Dorgon immediately understood Hauge's thoughts. The Battle of Xiangyang, by any rate, was not a good thing for Duoduo and Azig.

Let them be the coach again, whether it is internal trust or a bowl of water, it is not easy to do.

After determining the grand strategy of the southern expedition, everything else was trivial.

But even so, it lasted for a long time. When the little emperor's legs sitting on it were numb, it was over, and everyone saluted Shunzhi together, and then slowly withdrew.

When only Bumu Butai and Shunzhi were left, Bumu Butai put Emperor Shunzhi's little feet on his knees, kneaded them slowly, and said while kneading: "Fulin, what do you think of your situation today?" ”

"The eldest brother is a good person, and the ninth uncle is bad." Shunji said.

In the innocent eyes of children, Hauge, the familiar eldest brother, naturally attracted his attention. Based on this and other judgments, Dorgon is naturally the villain.

Bumu Butai suddenly changed color when he heard this, and said, "Who taught you this?" ”

Shunzhi said: "No one taught me. It's my own thoughts. ”

Bumu Butai said with a straight face, almost like a dark cloud on his face: "In the future, these words must not be said, and they cannot be thought of. You know? ”

Shunzhi was taken aback and said, "The child knows." ”

Bumu Butai sighed, hugged Shunzhi in his arms, and said, "When will you grow up?" ”

When Huang Taiji was there, she didn't need to think much about it at all. Huang Taiji is the mountain he can't rely on. Now, however, she has to pay attention to the political strife in the court all the time. Shunzhi can be naïve, but she can't be naïve.

Dolgon has today, and Bumu Butai has expected it for a long time, and it has some help.

In fact, in Bumubutai's view, Hauge's power is much more dangerous than Dolgon's. After all, Hauge is Huang Taiji's eldest son. If Haoge takes control of the government, what is left to do, Bumu Butai dares to say, and Haoge will find a way to oust Shunzhi from power as soon as possible. Take the throne yourself.

After all, Dorgon is Huang Taiji's brother, and if he wants to take the throne, he must spend more energy on it.

And between Bumu Butai and Dolgon, there are still some things to say.

Bumu Butai recalled the meeting, Dolgon looked at Hauge's eyes, and knew that Dorgon wanted to clean up Hauge, even after the expedition to Sichuan.

For a while, Bumu Butai felt a sense of crisis.

Hauge was put in order by Dolgon, and the royalists were about to lose a general.

"Can we only count on Prince Zheng?" Bumu Butai thought of Zilharang's appearance, and a trace of hesitation appeared in his heart.

At this moment, Prince Zheng Zilharang is teaching his son.

"Daddy." It was Prince Zheng's son, Fulton, who spoke. "The first emperor entrusted my father with the important task of entrusting the orphan, why didn't my father speak for Prince Su?"

"Boy." "The most important thing in doing things for others is to determine who you are. ”

"Your father and I are deeply favored by the first emperor, so naturally we want to assist his descendants, but we don't want to assist Haoge." Zilharang said with a sneer. He also has an opinion about Hauge now, although the three Dorgon brothers are powerful, but Hauge himself is also an idiot.

At least Zilharan didn't think very well of him.

"Do you know how my identity compares to other kings?" Zilharang asked.

Fulton couldn't figure it out for a moment.

"Because I am not of the Taizu bloodline, the current problem is just the family affairs of the Taizu lineage, what we participate in is harmful, as long as Your Majesty is in power, even if Dolgon is a little domineering, it doesn't matter." Zilharang said.

"Father," said Fulton, "now that Prince Rui is pressing forward and deceiving people too much, won't we take revenge?" ”

Zilharan said: "There is no need to do this, the more powerful Prince Rui is, the more people will be offended, and we don't even have to do much to wait for Dolgon to offend all people." Without my intervention, he himself would have been attacked by the crowd. ”

"As long as I can guarantee His Majesty's pro-government, I can do it." Zilharang said secretly.

In the palace of Prince Rui.

When Dolgon returned, he pondered quietly and said secretly, "Hauge, I can't keep it anymore. "Dolgon's arrogant appearance today is not very angry. In the middle of being angry, suddenly a person asked to see him. said it was Feng Quan.

When Dolgon heard it, it was Feng Quan, nodded and said, "Let him come in." ”

"Wow." One of the guards agreed.

Who is Feng Quan? It was the minister of the Ming Dynasty, and he was the person who flattered Wei Zhongxian at the beginning, and he was a member of the so-called eunuch party. He is one of Wei Zhongxian's adopted sons. After the Qing army entered the Beijing division, Dolgon used letters to gather gentry from all over the country, Feng Quan was one of them, and Feng Quan was summoned and was reused by Dolgon. Become one of Dolgon's right-hand men.

Because Feng Quan is a northerner and a native of Shuntianfu, Feng Quan is also a member of the Northern Party. In contrast to the Jiangnan gentry.
