Hauge immediately objected: "Although Azig has an extraordinary record against Li Chuang, he has won a lot. However, in the battle against Li Yan, there were also many casualties. Although it also plundered back tens of thousands of people, but it left thousands of elite soldiers behind, it can't be said that there is much credit, right? ”

Duoduo sneered, "What about you? Stopped troops in front of Shanhaiguan for a month, did there ever be a war? If you open the Shanhai Pass, will we still have to withdraw from the Great Wall Pass? You are cowardly and cowardly, but you are not ashamed to talk about other people's achievements? ”

"At that time, I said that I was going to attack inside and outside, but you have not heard from you for a long time, how can you want us to break through the level alone?!" Hauge strikes back.

Regardless of whether he was discussing in the court or not, Duoduo just scolded: "Coward! Wu Sangui's army of 30,000 was besieged in Tongzhou, and Shanhaiguan was only 20,000 horses at that time, why didn't you attack the city? Cowardly and courageless, unworthy of being my Manchurian warrior! ”

"Aren't you 100,000 against 30,000 also a failure? The Eight Banners man alone has been killed and injured by nearly 10,000 people, don't you see that every family is wearing filial piety now? What kind of face do you have to continue to stay in the court?! Hauge scolded back without hesitation: "By the way, this time the two yellow flags have the most casualties, but your two white flags have the least casualties, you are harboring evil intentions!" Destroy the harmony of my Eight Banners! ”

Zhezhe immediately scolded: "Hauge! Say no more! "It's good to know this kind of thing, if you emphasize it repeatedly, then the Eight Banners really can't be united.

Bu Mu Butai interjected: "Prince Li is the eldest brother, let's ask the eldest brother Daishan to talk about it." ”

Dai Shan unsurprisingly began to thin the mud again. He said: "In this battle, the casualties are indeed very large, and Dolgon's command must be responsible. However, Li Yan is a brand new opponent, and he lacked understanding before, so the defeat on the battlefield is understandable. As for the choice of the flag owner, it is still decided by the empress dowager of the two palaces and the emperor, I have no opinion. ”

Dai Shan's words were light, and he didn't take any responsibility at all, but he supported Azig's plan to replace Dorgon.

To say that the three Dolgon brothers, although they were born to the same mother, the relationship between the brothers was not without suspicion, but the two red flags were under his control. If there were no two white flags that wanted to compete for imperial power in front of them, then their two red flags would have become targets to be dealt with.

Seeing that Daishan did not participate in weakening the two white flags, the queen mother of the two palaces tried her best to protect the two white flags, so she also retracted it.

At this time, the most unconvincing is Haoge, such a good opportunity, but he can't disintegrate the two white flags, so won't his dream of being an emperor come to naught again?

He immediately said: "This time, the two yellow flags have the heaviest casualties, and we must divide some of the two white flags and compensate them for the two yellow flags!" ”

Duoduo said dissatisfiedly: "When the first emperor was there, most of the two yellow flags were from the side of the first emperor Zhou, which war was not fought by me with the two white flags?" Is this account also to be calculated? ”

"You two get out!" Zhezhe scolded: "The Golden Palace roars, and there is no king! Go back and be grounded for three days, and reflect on it! ”

The queen mother's words still have weight, and Hauge and Duoduo both walked out of the Chongzheng Palace and went home separately.

However, Zhezhe can't let the interests of the two yellow flags be damaged, after all, their sisters and the little emperor all rely on the two yellow flags to support.

She said: "Azig has a white flag for the time being. The two white flags don't need to be divided, and they will be given to the other flags. Also, for the casualties, the court will have a pension, and you must do your best, Dorgon. After all, they all died under your command. What do you think? ”

Dorgon nodded, "I have no opinion. I will take out another 50,000 taels of silver to give compensation to the wounded and wounded. ”

He was satisfied with the result. As long as the two white flags were in the hands of their brothers, then Hauge had no chance to be emperor. Now it seems that he suppressed the two yellow flags a little early. But who would have thought that Li Yan's troops would be so difficult to fight at that time?

At that time, if he continued to attack, he should be able to defeat Li Yan. However, the situation at that time was that the Mongolian ministries were unwilling to contribute, and the other banners also protected their own strength. According to the firepower and tenacity of Li Yan's department, it is estimated that their two white flags will be reduced by six or seven percent, even if they win, what good result will be? Haorge and the two yellow flags took advantage of the situation to fight back, maybe Hauge was about to sit on the throne, and their brothers were also imprisoned if they didn't die.

What are the benefits for the Qing Dynasty? With the temperament of Duoduo and Azig, coupled with Huang Taiji's suppression of the two, this situation will almost certainly meet each other. At that time, they were in the Qing Dynasty, and the cheapest ones were the Han people in Guannai. It is better to be like now, which not only retains the strength of the two white flags, but also preserves the unity of the Qing Dynasty.

"Prince Zheng, what is your opinion?" Zhezhe asked Zilharang again.

"The Queen Mother's handling is reasonable, I have no opinion."

Zhezhe nodded and said, "Then disperse, the kings will go back to appease the soldiers, and the hundred officials will perform their duties." Be sure to control the situation, and there must be no more incidents of picking quarrels and provoking trouble! ”

"Slow, I have something to say." Dorgon suddenly shouted.

And all the people looked at Dorgon. Zhezhe asked, "What do you have to say?" ”

Dorgon said loudly, "I have some ideas for the future strategy against Kannai. The first is to adhere to the strategy of continuing the previous emperor's time, and enter the customs every year to weaken the rule of the Han people. For Li Yan's troops, they must not fight hard, but be flexible and free. You can hit him while he's not ready, and when he's ready, he will detour to him. The territory of the pass is thousands of miles, and his troops are not enough to protect every place. As long as Donan invaded a few times, his rule would be as fragile as the Ming Kingdom. ”

Dorgon paused for a moment, and then suggested, "There is also Shanhaiguan, it is best to take it within this year." Otherwise, Wu Sangui and the others will definitely surrender to Li Yan, and then I will enter the south of the Qing Dynasty again, and I will still have to enter and exit through the Great Wall Pass, and the situation will be much more unfavorable. Li Yan's troops were different from those of the Ming Kingdom, and they were also different from Li Chuang's troops, they were tenacious and daring to fight, and their artillery was sharp. Therefore, Shanhaiguan is the key. ”

Zilharang said disdainfully: "Now that the morale of the various departments has been discarded, and two-thirds of the red-clothed cannons have been discarded, where can we raise troops to fight for the mountain and sea Xiongguan again?" ”

"You can cooperate with Wu Sangui and others." Dorgon had an idea: "It may seem reluctant to get them to surrender, but there is a lot to be done by cooperating with them." Li Yan will definitely not let Shanhaiguan be controlled by others, so he will definitely go to Shanhaiguan. We can return the land south of Ningyuan to them and let them continue to defend it. Their military expenses are huge, and those lands cannot support tens of thousands of troops, so they can only ask us for help. In this way, Wu Sangui and others became the barrier of the Qing Dynasty, and at the same time, the passage of my Qing Dynasty in and out of the customs has also become a thoroughfare. ”

Dolgon concluded: "These two things have been done, Li Yan is absolutely untenable north of the Yellow River, and I will not be able to enter the Central Plains again in a few years in the Qing Dynasty." ”

The crowd listened absent-mindedly. With this incident, who would dare to hand over their own people to someone else to take charge? It was quite cost-effective to let Wu Sangui and the others be their barrier with Li Yan, at least until their morale was restored, they didn't want to have another big battle with Li Yan.

"Also, we must punish and even crusade against the Karaqin and Urat Mongols, so as to warn the Mongol tribes that they will pay a heavy price for betraying our Qing Dynasty!" Dolgon added.
