Dolgon groaned for a while, although Nanjing shouted that it wanted to start a war with him, but whether Dolgon looked down on them, he really didn't take it to heart about the crooked melons and cracked dates of the Southern Dynasty, and concluded that if he didn't take the initiative to fight, the Southern Dynasty would definitely continue to be a shrinking turtle and would not take the initiative to provoke the Qing Dynasty.

In this case, in fact, it is a wiser decision to deal with Zhang Xianzhong in Sichuan first, and then build a plan.

However, this policy, as Fan Wencheng said, is a slow policy, which is too time-consuming to implement, and entering Sichuan requires the Qing army to prepare a lot of resources first.

Moreover, Zhang Xianzhong was a thief, Sichuan must have suffered damage, and the Qing army could gain a strategic advantage when it captured Sichuan, but it could not bring much wealth to the Eight Banners.

Since entering the customs, there have been a lot of battles in the Eight Banners, with people killed and great efforts, but they have not been able to plunder happily and have not grabbed anything, which has made many people dissatisfied.

Therefore, Dolgon had to win a battle, and at the same time bring benefits to the nobles of the Eight Banners in order to stabilize his position in the Qing court.

In this way, the battle into Sichuan, which was somewhat laborious and required to prepare a large number of supplies, was vetoed by Dolgon.

Now only by fighting the small court in Nanjing can he meet his requirements for winning the battle and gaining something.

As long as the Qing army broke through the line of Xuzhou and crossed the Huai River, each city had a lot of wealth.

If he can take cities like Huai'an and Yangzhou and indulge in the plundering of Qiding, these people will definitely continue to support him.

With the combat power of the warriors of the Qing Dynasty, Dolgon felt that there was no problem with the Eight Banners Iron Riding and drinking the Yangtze River.

The Qing court had already bought a lot of people in the south, and there were people to lead the way in the south, and it was not without the opportunity to cross the river and occupy Nanjing.

If we can really occupy Nanjing and seize Zhu Cihong, the orthodoxy of Zhu Ming in Nanjing will collapse, and with the situation of warlords in the south, after losing a commonly recognized emperor, it will inevitably become a plate of scattered sand.

When the time comes, Huguang Gao Yihuan, Fujian Zheng Zhilong, and Liangguang Ding Kuichu, no one will buy anyone's account, and the south will become a piece of scattered sand, and it will only be a matter of time before they are broken by each one.

Of course, with Gao Yihuan's containment, it is unlikely that the Qing army wants to cross the Yangtze River, but even if it can't cross the river, Dolgon is confident and eats the land of the two Huai.

Compared with the north, Lianghuai can be said to be a wealthy place, which can greatly improve the finances of the Qing Dynasty.

Thinking of this, Dolgon's mind became even more determined, and he decided to choose Nanjing, after all, it was easy to fight.

"This king, decided to fight Jiangnan first!" Dorgon was silent for a while, then decided.

Hong Chengchou sighed in his heart when he heard this, but he didn't intend to change Dorgon's opinion.

Dolgon, known as Prince Rui, thinks he is very smart, and it is difficult for others to change his mind when he thinks well, and from the perspective of Dolgon's desire to stabilize his position in the court, this choice is very much in his interests.

A victory that is nine out of ten, and the richness is abundant, so that the Eight Banners are satisfied, then it can only beat the weak and rich Nanjing small court.

Moreover, after the Qing army entered the customs, they destroyed Li Zicheng, fought Gao Yihuan, expelled Mobei Mongolia, and fought a lot of tough battles.

After Dolgon finished speaking, he looked at everyone again, and suddenly said: "But what Master Hong said is also reasonable, the high thief has to be guarded against, and the thief will inevitably peep into Guanzhong if he gets Hanzhong, so he must also be vigilant." ”

Dolgon pondered for a moment, and suddenly looked up at Fan Wencheng, "The contradiction between the high thief and my Qing Dynasty is irreconcilable, and the offering thief has not yet fought with my Qing Dynasty. Fan Wencheng, you asked the Ministry of Rites to send an official to Sichuan, meet Zhang Xianzhong, invite him to divide the Southern Dynasty equally, and see how he reacts? ”

After hearing this, Fan Wencheng hurriedly bowed, and then said with a smile: "The regent is really wise, after the slave returns to the palace, he will arrange someone to do it." ”

Dolgon nodded, "The high thief and the sacrifice thief snatched Xiangyang, and then attacked Jingzhou, the two sides have always had a grudge, and the people sent can put some effort in this regard and instigate the two thieves to fight." In addition, if there are any conditions for the thief, he can agree to come down first, wait for the king to clean up the Southern Dynasty first, and then turn back to clean him up. ”

Fan Wencheng understood what Dolgon meant, that is, to deceive Zhang Xianzhong first, stabilize the western thief, and wait for the regent to clean up the Southern Dynasty and take Jiangnan, and then turn around and destroy him.

In June, when Dolgon was preparing for the southern expedition, Gao Yihuan was also actively preparing for war.

At this time, the weather was hot, but Wei Wujun's training was in full swing.

At this time, outside Nanyang City, more than 100,000 horses were distributed in the suburbs, including 30,000 Shun troops who accepted the reorganization, 20,000 left troops who surrendered, 30,000 new soldiers raised, and the expanded Xuanhu Horse Army, all of which were trained in the camp.

In addition to these horses, there are also newly recruited soldiers who have come to the camp one after another, and of course, there are also men and horses who have completed the whole training and left the camp and are sent to various places to garrison.

This was the largest training since the formation of the Wei Wu Army, and all units were required to train in rotation for three months before returning to the station.

The purpose of this training camp is mainly threefold: first, to digest the Shun army that has been incorporated and the left army that has surrendered, second, to adjust the establishment of the army, and third, to conduct an ideological education for all armies.

At this time, on the school grounds, a teaching department of more than 300 people, formed by the students of the Lecture Martial Arts Hall, was entering the school field under the leadership of Zhou Daji, the head of the brigade.

The former rough man, now has become Gao Yihuan's side of the guard brigade, his waist is straight, the armor on his body is neat, he looks very spirited, is leading the soldiers to enter the field, the team is horizontal and vertical in a line, extremely neat, I can see the eyes of the female baby of the literary and artistic team of the Education and Culture Division on the stage, and Gao Yihuan on the stage also feels very face-saving.

In this intensive training, an important mission is to enrich the life of the soldiers in the army, and the education and culture department under Licao will arrange a drama troupe to sing for the army, and the literary and artistic team will sing songs.

The soldiers train during the day and sit under the stage at night to enjoy the performances and enrich their spiritual life.

At this time, after the sergeants of the teaching division entered, they all sat down at the sound of a whistle, occupying the best position on the school field.

Qiu Ba, who was outside the school grounds, looked at the girl in a skirt and saw a piece of snow white on her neck, and she was already uneasy, so they swallowed saliva while waiting for admission.

"These little girls, all of them are really handsome, especially the one in the middle, if they marry home, they are willing to live for ten years." Qiu Bamen swallowed his saliva and said this.

A Shun officer next to him immediately reprimanded: "Mother, these are the maids in the marshal's mansion, and the one in the middle is Chen Yuanyuan, the wife of General Quan, I think you are tired of being alive." ”

Saying that, it was their turn to enter the venue, and the Qiu Ba, who usually couldn't stand in a queue, this time they stood up with their chests straight, and the queue was neat.

These thieves are from Qiu Ba, in front of the girls of the literary team, they are more elite than the tall and handsome elites, and they are all very energetic~
