Chapter 125: Hauge Expedition IV

As time went on, the whole city of Beijing moved.

The Eight Banners occupy the inner city of Beijing, and now the absolute main force of the Qing army, or the children of the Eight Banners, so the army is dispatched, in the city of Beijing, the father sends his son, the son sends his father, and the wife sends his father, although there is the previous battle of Xiangyang, the fight is fierce, but there is not much sad atmosphere, some parting sorrow. But it is more to encourage the husband, or the father, or the son, to make a good fortune when they go on the expedition.

They're used to it. Every time the Qing army went out, it was a grand carnival for them.

Every time their father and brother would bring enough booty, even slaves and maids, as for the blood on the back, they would not care, and they would not think much about anything.

I'm used to it, aren't the Han people going to be robbed?

The army went out of the Desheng Gate in the north gate of Beijing.

Northern Xuanwu, there is already the meaning of the main military affairs, coupled with the color of Desheng, although Haoge is a westward expedition, but the soldiers of the Eight Banners still go out of the city through the north gate.

This is also a practice handed down from the Ming Dynasty.

The arrow tower of Desheng Gate is very high, there are five floors high, there are many horns on it, the armor is like a cloud, it is an important link in the Beijing city defense system.

At this moment, Haoge and Prince Zheng were standing in front of the arrow tower, and the guards around them were guarding from afar, not daring to disturb the conversation between the two big men.

Prince Zheng Zierharang looked down, the children of the eight banners below, the banners were displayed, and the armor was distinct. The team was extremely neat, mixed with people and horses, and there were even a large number of relatives and family members on both sides of the road.

Such a map of the expedition was common to see in Shengjing. But in the city of Beijing, it is rare. The last time the army went out to pursue Li Zicheng, the little emperor of Shunzhi had not yet arrived in Beijing, and Prince Zheng was also in Liaodong.

Prince Zheng seems to remember the eventful years of that year, and you must know that he Zilharang is also a general. It's not mediocrity. He said to Hauge, "Hauge, I heard that you have been with Dorgon on many occasions and have not been there?" ”

Hauge said: "Uncle Wang also knows. ”

The two counted their generations, Prince Zheng Jierharang is the son of the old slave's younger brother Shuerhaqi, and he is the same generation as Huang Taiji and others. Hauge was not wrong to call him Uncle Wang.

"You're just too young." Zilharang said: "Is Lao Jiu such an easy person to deal with? And he's your uncle no matter how he says it. You have to get by on face. ”

Haoge smiled contemptuously and said, "Uncle Wang taught you a lesson. ”

Zilharang could see at a glance that Hauge didn't take his words to heart at all, and he felt helpless in his heart.

Hauge has always been this kind of self-righteous character, and even his father has changed

It can't be changed. If he could, Zilharang wouldn't want more. But Huang Taiji died early, and some of Huang Taiji's forces were not actually inherited by Shunzhi, but by Haoge.

If you want to deal with Dorgon, you have to hauge.

Zilharang said: "In any case, Dolgon is still capable, otherwise I would not be speaking in the city of Beijing now." ”

That's why Dorgon is so strong now.

When he was outside the gate, although Dolgon was strong, he could also compete with Zilharang and Daishan.

However, Dolgon conquered the city of Beijing and extended the Manchu power from outside the Guanxi to the entire north, accomplishing a great cause that many Manchurians had never thought of. Therefore, it was unanimously supported by the whole of Manchuria.

What politics is like this, whoever can bring benefits to everyone, the people below will follow.

"That's just the foundation of the inheritance of Emperor Amma." Hauge sneered and said, "It's just the right time." ”

A lot of things seem simple to review from scratch, but only the person concerned knows how much pressure they are under.

In the Battle of One Stone and the Battle of Tongguan, Dolgon ordered Manchuria to be over 16 years old and under 60 years old to be conscripted, which can be said to have pressed all the capital of Houjin on the battlefield.

I simply won. What will be the consequences if you don't win? Hauge probably didn't think about it.

For people who don't do things, it's simple to see people who really do things do things.

Zilharang did not give in to Dolgon, but because Dolgon's power overwhelmed him. It's about the big picture.

Shunzhi couldn't preside over it at all when he was young, and now the situation is so complicated. And Hauge has the heart of an auxiliary government. But let Zilharang choose. He would rather let Dorgon take charge of the situation than let Haug come.

Without him, Hauge is not capable enough, otherwise after Huang Taiji's death at that time, as long as Hauge can fully accept Huang Taiji's inheritance, Dolgon may not be able to ask for him.

At that time, Hauge and Dolgon were fighting, and the elders only wanted to compromise instead of supporting Hauge, which already explained the problem.

Looking at the premise of why Shunzhi was able to ascend the throne, Dai Shan proposed that it must be the blood of Huang Taiji, but it can not be Haoge.

The previous sentence shows that Huang Taiji has been in power for decades, consolidating the country of the Later Jin Dynasty and improving the system of the Qing court, and has many supporters. But Hauge couldn't bring them together.

It was already obvious that Haug was inferior to Dolgon.

Zilharang did not argue with Hauge about this, and said: "Dolgon is powerful, and this is not the time to fight him. When His Majesty is an adult, it is not too late to deal with Dolgon, and let him go. ”

Hauge sneered and said, "Uncle Wang, do you think that after Dolgon sweeps the world, he will only do it with peace of mind

A regent? ”

"This ----," Zilharang didn't know what to say for a moment.

Would Dorgon be at ease? Zilharan was also unable to pack a ticket for Dolgon. In the final analysis, the Qing court was faced with the problem of vacancy in the center of power after Huang Taiji's death.

For princes of the clan such as Zilharan, the rise of Dorgon and the rise of Haug were both secondary solutions. It's all alternatives, and Dolgon, who has been in this position for a long time, will have other thoughts in mind. So Hauge won't?

For many of the princes and ministers who bet on Shunzhi, Hauge may be more dangerous than Dorgon.

"I know what Uncle Wang means." Hauge said: "In the future, I will lead the troops outside, and Uncle Wang will be in the center, and I must not let Dolgon do it at will." When I return from my victory, I'm sure I'm going to make Dorgon look good. ”

Zilharang looked at Haoge, sighed, and said, "Okay, don't worry, with your Uncle Wang here, you don't have to worry about the affairs in the rear, don't worry about going to war." ”

Haoge said: "Thank you Uncle Wang, I will go to Sichuan, if I don't kill Zhang Xianzhong, I won't return to the army." ”

Hauge looked below, and the team of men and horses had almost walked through the hole in the city gate, so they also got off the city tower and turned over on their horses. Escorted by the Guards, join the ranks of the people who want to go out of the city.

Then it blended into the rolling stream of people and disappeared.

Zilharang looked at Hauge's distant back, shook his head secretly, and thought in his heart: "Hauge is young after all? It's just that I didn't expect Emperor Taizong to be wise, but the eldest son was like this. Otherwise, with the power of Emperor Taizong, An can have such a situation? ”

But if Haoge can withstand the scene, Huang Taiji will arrange it for him, and it is Huang Taiji who denies Haoge's ability in his heart, so that after his hasty death, a power vacuum will be formed.

"I should have known. There are some things that can't be counted on Hauge. ”

In the procession of the march, a big man was wearing triple armor, and between his actions, he was as light as nothing. The beard covers most of the face. Speak loudly like a bell, even if you lower your voice, you can speak loudly as usual. said: "Lord, what did Prince Zheng say just now?" ”

This person is none other than Aobai.

Aobai and even Aobai's family are all diehards of Huang Taiji, and Aobai and Turai have the same grandfather. Fei Yingdong. And Aobai's father, Wei Qi, and Huang Taiji were appointed to guard the eight gates of Shengjing every time they went on an expedition.

It can be seen that Huang Taiji relies on it deeply.

After Wei Qi's death, Ao Bai inherited his father's legacy. Continuing to be loyal to Huang Taiji's heirs, Shunzhi is still young, so he naturally listens to it under Haoge.

Hauge also trusted him. I also know that Aobai is in the prime of life, and now he is in his thirties. It's a fierce general.

Hauge sneered and said, "Prince Zheng is already old. I don't have the courage anymore, and we have to get rid of Dolgon. ”
