Ignoring the decree of the Qing court, Hauge went straight back to Beijing with his army.

The armies of Duoduo and Azig were lost, and only the armies of Ao Bai and Wu Sangui were able to return safely. Wu Sangui and other Han military banners don't need to talk about him, the battle for the Manchu throne is a matter for the Aixin Jueluo family, and the Han and Mongolian Eight Banners are not qualified to intervene.

However, Ao Bai has always supported Haoge, and when Huang Taiji died, Ao Bai supported Haoge to succeed to the throne. Now the Eight Banners Army that supports Huang Taiji has suffered serious losses, and the two armies controlled by Haoge and Ao Bai have accounted for half of the Standing Army of the Eight Banners, which is also the confidence of Haoge to dare to return to Beijing without listening to Dorgon's orders. What's more, there are many clan generals who support Haoge in the two yellow flags in Beijing.

The defeat of the Ming Dynasty was extremely bad news for the Qing Dynasty, which meant that it was almost impossible for the Qing Dynasty to dominate the world and replace the Ming Dynasty. But for Haoge, it was great news, because when he failed one after another, only he Haoge defeated the 200,000 Northern Expeditionary Army of the Ming Dynasty together with Ao Bai and others, and turned the tide and won a big victory!

With this merit, coupled with the failure of Dolgon's Faming, Hauge thought that he was enough to replace Dolgon's power in control of the Qing Dynasty, because all the Manchus could see who was qualified to control the Qing Dynasty!

When he returned to Beijing, countless civil and military officers of the imperial court rushed out of the city to greet the triumph of the army, which made Haoge even more satisfied. It was as if he had seen the gloomy face of his uncle Dorgon, and his mood became more relaxed.

Hauge entered Beijing with his army and stationed at Yongdingmen in the outer city. From the beginning of entering the city, there was an endless stream of Eight Banner generals who came to visit him, and at this time everyone knew that the limelight was already on Haoge's side. Judging from the comparison of the strength of the two sides, it is a foregone conclusion that Hauge will replace Dolgon at the helm of the Qing Dynasty.

However, now that Dolgon was still the regent of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, holding the power of the imperial court, he might jump over the wall in a hurry, and Hauge would not dare to despise it even if he had the upper hand. Because the Admiral of the Nine Gates in charge of the defense of the Nine Gates of the Inner City was Dorgon's henchman Adali, Hauge did not even dare to enter the inner city of Beijing, and sat in the outer city to remotely direct the battle with Dolgon.

Hao Ge led the troops back to Beijing, and there was an endless stream of Eight Banner generals who came to meet him, even Dai Shan and Ji Erharang, who had always been relatively neutral, and they also sent people to express their condolences to Hao Ge, which made Hao Ge have a faint feeling that the general trend was in my place.

Compared to Hauge's success, Dolgon's house was much more deserted. The original situation of rushing to meet suddenly disappeared, and now although it is not possible to come to the door, there is not much difference.

At the same time, the call for the court to liquidate the defeat of Fa Ming became louder and louder, and the Hauge family finally attacked. The first to be taken down was Adali, the commander of the Nine Gates, who relieved him of his position as the Governor of the Nine Gates, and was held by Yue Le, the fourth son of Abatai, the king of Rao Yumin. Yue Le has been following Haoge since the army, and he can be regarded as Haoge's confidant.

The Admiral of the Nine Gates is in his own hands, at least it is much safer to enter the inner city, and Hauge's mind is settled. However, the guards of the palace were still under the control of Dolgon, and Hauge naturally could not allow this to happen, otherwise he would have to give his life to Dolgon when he went to court.

After another game, the court finally decided that the auxiliary king Zilharang would concurrently serve as the minister of the guard and lead the defense of the palace. Zilharang has always been a royalist, and now he is the son of the Emperor Taiji, and he is in competition with Dolgon in the court, even if he does not completely fall on his side, he will never collude with Dolgon, and Hauge is still very confident in this.

After Hauge returned to Beijing, although Zilharang did not go out of the city to greet him in person, he sent his eldest son Fulton to visit Hauge, and the intention of taking refuge was already very obvious.

However, although he felt that the situation was under control, Hauge was still faintly uneasy, because Dolgon had been too quiet these days, could it be that Dolgon knew that the general situation was gone, and he no longer wanted to give his rights back? If that's the case, Hauge doesn't mind giving Dorgon a dead end.

Out of caution, Hauge wore two layers of armor and a short knife hidden in his boots before giving the order to set off for the royal palace for a court meeting. On November 1, the second year of Shunzhi, today it will be decided who is in charge of the Qing Dynasty! At this moment, Hauge was full of fighting spirit.

Before the day dawned, the civil and military officials above the fourth grade in Beijing had already gathered outside the Chengtian Gate, and when they saw the arrival of Prince Su Haoge and his entourage, the ministers rushed over, smiling and greeting An.

When the regent Dolgon arrived, only some of the diehards gathered around him, and the strength and weakness were obvious.

When the time came, the Chengtian Gate opened, and the ministers entered the palace according to the grade, and held a court discussion in the Taihe Palace.

On the emperor's throne, eight-year-old Fu Lin sat on the wide dragon chair and was uneasy, holding his mother's hand beside him, while the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang sat there expressionlessly, pulling her son's slender hand and showing her uneasiness.

Hauge glanced coldly at the mother and son on the throne, and kowtowed with the ministers.

The court entered a white heat at the beginning, and the Beizi Tunqi of the Hauge family took the lead in attacking, pointing the spearhead directly at the regent Dorgon, saying that he was nepotistic and incompetent, which made the great cause of the Ming Dynasty fail, and tens of thousands of Eight Banner warriors died in the south.

With the attack of Tunqi, many ministers also followed the impeachment, because for all the Eight Banners, the failure of this war is an unspeakable pain. In the past 30 years, from the establishment of the Later Jin Dynasty to the establishment of the Qing Dynasty, how could there have been such a big defeat? Nearly 40,000 children of the Eight Banners died on the battlefield, and every family has people who wear filial piety, and who is not sad? And the regent Dorgon, who presided over the Valmin, naturally had to bear the blame!

In the face of the accusations of the ministers, Dolgon was not ambiguous, bluntly stated his mistakes, was willing to resign from the title of regent, gave up all power, and was willing to be an ordinary vest, and from then on to fight on the front line of the battlefield to make up for his mistakes.

Dolgon's attitude of confessing his sins was very good, and the anger of many people in the court was a little lowered, and if you think about it, there are many reasons for the defeat of the army, and it is not entirely Dolgon's responsibility.

So there were people who were loyal to Dolgon to defend Dolgon, and pointed the finger at Hauge, saying that Hauge did not obey the order of the imperial court and led the army back to Beijing without authorization, which was a rebellion!

Haoge was furious immediately, saying that he was the eldest son of Huang Taiji, and he was the Qing Dynasty, would he make his own rebellion?

Someone immediately grabbed Hauge's handle and said, "Where do you say that the emperor on the throne is here?"

Hauge said without hesitation, Fulin is just a child who doesn't know anything, what qualifications does he have to represent the Qing Dynasty? The faces of the courtiers changed greatly, knowing that Haoge had the intention of replacing Fulin himself as emperor.

Haoge's subordinates also stood up one after another, saying that the throne should have been inherited by Haoge, the eldest son of Huang Taiji, and that the Qing Dynasty was in a difficult situation, wouldn't it be a joke to let a seven or eight-year-old child be the emperor?

The majority of the people in the court supported Haoge, and the mother and son of Xiaozhuang on the throne were pale, and Xiaozhuang frequently looked at Zilharang with his eyes. Zilharang let out a long sigh and clapped his hands, and a group of guards with blue flags rushed into the court.

"Haoge did not listen to the holy decree and led the army back to Beijing without authorization, he had a plot of misdeeds, and he spoke wild words in the court to despise the emperor, which was clearly a rebellion!" Zilharang announced loudly with a cold face.

Hauge's face changed suddenly, he never expected that Zilharang, who had always supported him, would actually side with Dorgon. No, Zilharang is not supporting Dolgon, but has always supported the little emperor!

It is a pity that he has always thought that Zilharang is his own man, and he sent his eldest son Fulton to his subordinates, and he is still complacent about his control of the palace guards. But now I see that all this is a conspiracy, and I have fallen into a scheme!

But is remorse useful? The guards of the entire palace were all Zilharang's people, and in the face of the heavily armed guards, some of Haoge's henchmen had just spoken out and scolded Jilharang, and they were killed by the guards on the spot, and the others were only captured.

In the court, Hauge's family was taken on the spot, Hauge's power collapsed in an instant, and the Eight Banners troops who supported him lost their leaders and could no longer move.

After the Haoge family was taken down, the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang spoke, in view of the defeat of the Ming Dynasty that led to the death of tens of thousands of warriors of the Eight Banners, Dolgon had to bear the responsibility, remove him from the position of regent, demote him to the king of Ruijun, and ordered him to hand over the white flag, which was personally controlled by the emperor, and Dolgon only served as the owner of the white flag.

The auxiliary king Zilharang foiled Hauge's rebellion and replaced Dolgon in charge of the court, and Dolgon, the king of Ruijun, assisted him.

At the same time, the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang ordered that in view of the heavy losses of the Eight Banners and the heavy use of Han Chinese, Fan Wencheng was awarded the title of Shangshu of the Cabinet University Scholar Department to assist Jierharang in handling court affairs. As a result, the Manchu court established a new pattern of Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, assisted by Zierharang and Dolgon, and Fan Wencheng, a scholar of the Han Dynasty, participating in politics. The reason why the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang did not eliminate the losing Dolgon was because she wanted to contain and balance Jilharang and prevent Jilharang from having undue thoughts in her power.

In the case of heavy losses of the Eight Banners, it is necessary to reuse the Han people and the Han Army Banner Green Battalion at this time. Otherwise, with the remaining more than 20,000 Standing Army of the Eight Banners, even if the bannermen are urgently recruited into the army, let alone the conquest of the Ming Dynasty, it will be very difficult to control Beijing.

And since they have left the land of Daming that they occupy, everyone is reluctant to return to the bitter cold land outside the pass. At the very least, we must also think of holding the places in the north, Shandong, Hebei, Shanxi, and Shaanxi, and we have to reuse the Han people when the Eight Banners are weak.

Hong Chengchou, the commander of the Ming Dynasty who surrendered, was appointed as a military scholar of the Governor of Hebei, Shandong, and Henan, with full authority to handle the military affairs of Shandong, Hebei, and Henan, and presided over the suppression of the rebellion of the Shandong Righteous Army.

At the same time, the surrendered generals Tang Tong, Bai Guangen, Jiang Pai and others were each princes, and even the newly surrendered Li Chengdong was also made a marquis by the Manchu Qing Dynasty. The headquarters of the generals served under Hong Chengchou's subordinates, and once the rebellion in Shandong and Hebei was swept away, the reward of the king was not spared when the meritorious deeds were rewarded. With Han princes like Wu Sangui and Shang Kexi, presumably these generals will be willing to serve the Qing Dynasty for their glorious status.

At this time, the Qing court no longer dared to look down on and suppress these Han generals, but on the contrary, they all gave them generous rewards. However, the checks and balances that should be there are also essential, for example, the Qing court ordered the Han generals to send their sons and nephews to Beijing to join the Xiaocai camp and guard the palace. It is clearly to act as a hostage, in case it gives birth to two hearts.

At the same time, Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi, and Shang Kexi, the king of Zhishun, were sent to Shaanxi to resist Zhang Xianzhong, the Great Western Army who was attacking Hanzhong, and Xiaozhuang promised Wu Sangui that if they could destroy Zhang Xianzhong, they would make Sichuan, Guizhou and other places their vassal states.

The title of the lord and the feudal domain, the feudal lord is just a knight, but the feudal domain is something that the generals dare not think of, and the Manchu court has come up with such a big interest temptation, no one will not be moved. And this kind of benefit is something that the Ming court will definitely not promise, so Xiaozhuang and Jierharang and others believe that Wu Sangui and other generals will never betray the Qing Dynasty and return to the Ming Dynasty.

Anyway, the land that was rewarded was not originally from the Qing Dynasty, and it was completely generous to others, and it was not distressing at all. As for whether this will make these feudal kings lose their tails, that's a story for another time. Now whether the Manchus can occupy the north or not is two theories, where else can they take care of so much?

In the Sanshun king, the Gongshun king Kong Youde, and the Huaishun king Geng Zhongming were all destroyed under the city of Yangzhou, only Shang Kexi, who followed Azig, survived by luck but his troops were also lost, but in order to show his favor to the generals, the Manchu court did not blame Shang Kexi, but named him the king of Pingnan, and ordered him to assist Wu Sangui to deal with Zhang Xianzhong in Sichuan.

At present, the threat of the Manchu Qing is also the Mongols from the north, although Horqin and other departments are all focused on the Qing Dynasty, and Xiaozhuang himself is the princess of Horqin, but at present, the losses of the Eight Banners are too heavy, and it is difficult to say that the Mongolian tribes will not have different hearts.

After discussion, the Manchu court decided to adopt a policy of appeasement towards the Mongol tribes, continued to win over the tribes who were interested in the Qing Dynasty, traded with them to provide the Mongols with the salt, tea and other living materials urgently needed by the Mongols, rewarded them, and crowned the heads of each tribe as princes. Then he adopted a policy of harmony, selected concubines for the eight-year-old Fu Lin in the Mongolian provinces, and married a woman from the Qing clan into Mongolia.

Although the Manchu Qing Dynasty was defeated, the Mongols did not have any dissent in a short period of time under a series of means. For the current Manchu court, the immediate priority is to suppress the growing rebellion of the Shandong mob.

Shandong was only a few hundred miles away from Beijing, and the rebellion there was too much threat to the Manchu rule, if the Han people in Henan, Hebei, Shanxi and other places did the same, if the Southern Ming court took the opportunity to send troops to the north to respond, it would be very difficult for the Manchu court to gain a foothold in Beijing.

After Hong Chengchou was appointed governor, he soon arrived in Texas and used it as a base camp to gather troops. Soon, Tang Tong, Bai Guangen, Jiang Pai and other generals, as well as the newly surrendered Li Chengdong, also came to join with the army, and soon organized an army of more than 60,000 people, with the 5,000 and 8 banners of the Boluo Department of the county king as the central army, and launched an attack on Shandong. At this moment in Shandong, except for Jinan City, which is still in the hands of Fang Dayou, the governor of Qing Shandong, other prefectures and counties are full of mobs, and most of the cities have been lost.

The Qing army suddenly attacked, and for Wu Ping, who was in Shandong, the situation suddenly became tense.
