1057 Moment of Truth
As soon as he heard this, Baylor, the Manchu prince except Hauge, was excited. What is so powerful about the Ming army?
Firearm! I didn't think it before, but I always felt that the firearms of the Ming Army were just like that, and they were easy to break! But after being pushed flat by the Hongyi cannon, to be honest, they actually have no confidence, what other city in the Qing Dynasty can withstand the constant bombardment of the Hongyi artillery of the Ming army? In their hearts, they have been faintly worried, and they don't know when the Ming army will launch a general attack? At that time, what did the Qing Dynasty use to resist the attack of the Ming army?
In particular, they learned that in the battle of Zhenjiang Fort, the Ming army appeared with a new musket, which did not use the fire rope, and the shooting speed was much faster and more powerful. This worries them. The city of Shenyang became lifeless, and the robbing of food was a reason, and the Ming army became more and more powerful, and there were more powerful firearms, which was also an important reason.
For Xiyi, these Manchu princes Baylor, who were in high positions, naturally heard of it. They all know that what Huang Taiji said is right, the firearms of the Ming army were learned from Xiyi. As an apprentice, how can he surpass the master? It is also for this reason that in the first two years, Huang Taiji even sent Bai Yangcui to try to contact Xiyi, but there has been no news, so there should be no hope.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this matter should be promoted as soon as possible." Dai Shan's spirit also improved a lot, and he immediately said, "These requirements of Xiyi are not a problem!" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, we can promise Xiyi, not only what Catholicism can I convert to in the Qing Dynasty, but also in any place where we can fight in the Qing Dynasty in the future, we can force the local people to believe in Catholicism as well!" Zilharang, who has always been relatively calm, also played excitedly at this time, "Xiyi must have seen the combat power of my Qing Dynasty in the Wa Kingdom, and now as long as they understand one thing, after they form an alliance with the Qing Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty will be like a tiger with wings, and they can conquer more places, and they can also spread their Catholicism further." Together, it's good for both sides! ”
……
In the face of the active speeches of the courtiers below, feeling the warm atmosphere that has not been seen for a long time, Huang Taiji felt very good, he waited for a while, and then he couldn't wait to interrupt the active speeches below, and said in high spirits: "This is the most important turning point for my Qing Dynasty, and we must firmly grasp it in the Qing Dynasty." Therefore, I thought, first, that I immediately agreed to Xiyi's request and formed a real alliance with Xiyi. Didn't the Wa Kingdom still need Qing warriors? No problem, immediately send troops to reinforce Toyotomi Kunimatsu of Wa Kingdom! ”
It is also a good thing that this part of the Qing army can have enough to eat, and the Qing Dynasty does not have to worry about their food anymore. This most basic benefit, everyone thought of it at the first time and nodded their heads.
Huang Taiji looked at them and immediately continued: "Second, asking the Wa State to squeeze out some more grain can ease the grain pressure of the Qing Dynasty before the autumn harvest and deal with the possible Ming army's large-scale attack, so that my Daqing can keep safe, and Xiyi will be able to get the full help of my Daqing!" To let Xiyi understand that helping Daqing at this time is also helping Xiyi himself! ”
"Yes, bring some more grain over to help the Qing Dynasty, that is, to help them Xiyi themselves!" Dai Shan immediately nodded in agreement.
The others were also nodding their heads, if they didn't think much of the alliance with Toyotomi Kunimatsu in the past, but now that Xiyi has joined, they attach great importance to being able to form an alliance with Xiyi. For them, it should not be too easy to convert to Catholicism, and the price to pay is really small. And Xiyi's firearms, sailors, etc., are what they need the most.
Huang Taiji glanced at these courtiers below, and happily announced a piece of news: "As far as I know, on the Korean side, the imperial prince is also actively farming, and there are a lot of grain fields planted in the area of Seoul, and when the autumn harvest comes, even if we may lose some on our Liaodong side, but with the replenishment of North Korean grain, we will not worry about the lack of food in the future!" ”
As soon as they heard this, everyone was excited again. Food, it really hurt the Qing Dynasty, so that the Great Qing Dynasty has a combat power, but it can't be used at all. Think about the future, with food, firearms that are more powerful than the Ming army, and sailors to protect the coast, this prospect is ...... It's almost tearful to think about! Daqing, it has been too difficult in the past few years!
Just when the Manchu princes in the Chongzheng Palace, Beile, were full of emotion, Huang Taiji's smile was put away, became solemn, and said solemnly: "But before the autumn harvest, before the grain of the Wa Kingdom is transported, I still have a hurdle to pass in the Qing Dynasty!" ”
Speaking of this, he glanced at the people below and said very solemnly: "How to avoid a large-scale invasion of the Ming army during this time?" How can I be able to stop the Ming army when it is attacking on a large scale? As long as this hurdle is passed, the future of my Daqing will be infinitely bright! ”
"Your Majesty, Minggou has occupied Anshan Post Fort for so long, and I haven't seen them come to attack on a large scale!" A Manchu Baylor said with a little disbelief, "It's impossible for them to attack my Qing Dynasty at this time, right?" ”
"yes, it's impossible for Minggou to know that we're about to turn around?" The other person chimed in, "It can't be such a coincidence! ”
When Huang Taiji heard this, he immediately shook his head and said categorically: "Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case." In addition, I have a feeling that the Ming army seems to know the actions of our Qing Dynasty well, and in the past, the Horqin tribe was their internal response, which can be justified. But last time, why was the Ming army able to prepare properly and rob the grain in one fell swoop when the grain from North Korea happened to be delivered? I have never been able to understand this! ”
"Needless to say, it must be a spy from Dolgon's side!" When Hauge heard this, he didn't say a word, and immediately framed him.
"Well, don't be rude to the imperial brother!" When Huang Taiji heard this, he immediately scolded. Now is the time to use Dolgon, and his stupid son still wants to draw the fire to Dolgon, this is simply a pig's brain! If the Qing Dynasty is really handed over to him, it will be over!
Hauge was not convinced, and immediately retorted: "Is there something wrong with Erchen?" The Koreans there are all heading towards the Ming Kingdom, and such a big thing as transporting grain will definitely not be able to hide from the Ming Kingdom. ”
None of them could have imagined that there was a magical chat group in the world, and they couldn't have imagined that Huang Taiji's own son, in order to take revenge for depriving him of the crown prince, secretly took refuge in the Ming Dynasty and wanted to get rid of the Manchu Dynasty. In addition, they thought that Hauge seemed to think that what Hauge said this time was not unreasonable!
This time, Huang Taiji pondered for a moment before saying, "On the Korean side, send a letter to remind the imperial brother to pay attention." In addition, I feel that the Ming army will definitely make a move before the autumn harvest. They can't just watch me harvest the grain. In other words, I would not have let go of this opportunity in vain. Fortunately, the autumn harvest is still far away, and the Ming army should not move so quickly. Therefore, the matter of alliance with Xiyi should be carried out as soon as possible. Also, for the Ming Kingdom, make peace to delay time! ”
"What, sum?" When Dai Shan heard this, he immediately shook his head and said, "Didn't you try it before, but it didn't work?" Moreover, the Ming army also took the opportunity to occupy a lot of places in our Qing Dynasty! ”
Everyone knows what has just happened, so they don't think it's useful. The most important thing is that they feel that the Ming Emperor is very determined to destroy the Qing Dynasty, and he has not thought about negotiating peace at all.
In this regard, Huang Taiji actually knew, and even he remembered that the young emperor swore to the sky at the head of Jingshi City that he would definitely drive the imperial expedition and swear to destroy the Qing Dynasty.
Why do you remember it again? Huang Taiji rubbed his head, trying not to think about it. During this time, I have dreamed of this thing several times, and this is really not a good thing. He put down the hand that was rubbing his head, and said with a serious face: "What else can we do?" This time, we can all agree to the conditions of the Ming Kingdom first. In this way, Lu Xiangsheng must not be able to make his own decisions, and the messenger will go back and forth to Beijing, and this time will be delayed. After surviving this most dangerous time, when the time comes, we will regret it, and how can the Ming Kingdom help me in the Qing Dynasty? ”
As soon as they heard this, Dai Shan and the others thought about it, and couldn't help but nod, yes, no matter what Ming Guo wanted, they could agree on the spot, as long as their messengers traveled to and from Jingshi, such a long way would definitely delay a lot of time!
Thinking so, they all agreed with Huang Taiji's statement and had a heated discussion. Only Hauge secretly sneered, a group of fools, thinking they were smart, with Lao Tzu here, they can't make your calculations!
At the end of the court meeting, all the princes of the Manchu Dynasty, Baylor, rushed out of the palace in a hurry. Hauge naturally went back to his house. However, the first thing he did when he returned home was to immediately withdraw everyone, only called Qian Fugui, with a little hideous face, and instructed him: "Contact Mingguo, Lao Tzu has a big news to report......
When Qian Fugui saw this formation, he knew that something would happen. After hearing him say this, he knew that things would not be small. Anyway, the good things of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, especially the things involving Dolgon in Korea, Hauge will have this kind of performance.
So, he immediately listened carefully to Hauge.
"......" Hauge said roughly the content of the court meeting in the Chongzheng Palace, and said through gritted teeth, "Tell that over there, Dolgon is a scourge, and he can't be kept, so immediately send troops to destroy him, I dare to guarantee that Shenyang has no ability to send troops to rescue." As long as North Korea is defeated, there will be no hope on the Shenyang side, and the Qing Dynasty will not be far from death! ”
Qian Fugui nodded again and again when he heard this, indeed, if the Ming Dynasty sent troops to capture Seoul, it would indeed have this effect. Although Hauge eats inside and out, he has many years of experience in war, and he still has a certain ability to deal with war. Even if it is him, he knows that Da Ming should have the ability to attack North Korea, not to mention anything else, just if the sailor carries people to land directly on the side of Seoul, he can directly hit it by seven inches!
Thinking so, he immediately entered the chat group to tell the news he had heard. Hauge, on the other hand, stared at Qian Fugui, waiting for his reply.
After a while, he saw that Qian Fugui came back to his senses, his face seemed to be a little unsightly, and he said to Haoge, who was staring at him: "That side said, you want to borrow a knife to kill people, these things are all made up by you, just to ask Da Ming to get rid of Dolgon, so that you can become the prince of the Qing Dynasty again." ”
Hauge was stunned for a moment, and then became angry. Although he did have this idea, but being exposed like this, he naturally wanted to be annoyed and angry: "What Lao Tzu said is true, just returned from the Chongzheng Palace, is there any falsehood?" If you don't believe it, let the other side watch it, and the Qing Dynasty will immediately send a messenger over, and agree to any conditions, just to delay time! ”
When he was talking, he was still walking around, annoyed when he saw everything, kicking the stool, and throwing things to vent.
Qian Fugui just watched quietly, and waited for a while before he said: "I said over there, if you don't have this mind and no longer want to be the prince, then tell me about the deployment of the Qing army, so as to prove your sincerity in taking refuge in Daming, and if you say it, Daming will believe it." ”
For a long time, Emperor Chongzhen has always been unclear about the deployment of troops in the Manchu Dynasty. It is only possible to guess roughly according to the situation. There were also Qian Fugui who asked Haoge to ask for it before. But Haoge always finds excuses to prevaricate, and Emperor Chongzhen is worried that he is in a hurry, and it will not be good to give a fake army deployment intelligence. At this time, when he heard about the court discussion about the Chongzheng Palace, he felt that it was an opportunity, so he made this request again.
After Haoge listened to Qian Fugui's words, he was a little entangled a little. Indeed, he hated the deprivation of the crown prince's position very much, hated Dorgon, the imperial prince's brother, and hated him Amma for giving the throne to others. But after all, he is still from Jianyu, even if he is vicious, he still has a little affection. As a person who has been fighting for many years, he naturally knows how serious the consequences will be if he sells the news of military deployment. Not to mention anything else, in the past, Dajin was able to win consecutive battles in Liaodong because he knew the deployment of the Ming army.
One of the simplest examples, the great battle that made Dajin rise, is that Dajin understands the specific military situation of the attack of the five armies of the Ming army, so that he can concentrate all the forces of the Qing Dynasty and break them with superior forces, otherwise, the Ming army will attack in five ways, how can Dajin have the ability to rush over to defeat them, and then quickly rush to the next road?
But if he didn't provide the Qing Dynasty's military strength, the Ming Kingdom would not believe what he said, and it was likely that the Qing Dynasty would survive the most difficult stage at present, and then the Qing Dynasty would become stronger and stronger, and the imperial brother would become more and more arrogant.
As soon as Hauge thought of this situation, remembered that after Dolgon ascended the throne and became the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, he scolded and scolded himself, and the little boy Dordor, who would sneer at himself, shouting and shouting to kill, he couldn't help but be angry. In this case, it is absolutely not allowed! If you can't become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, you must not let him become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty!
Thinking of this, Haoge didn't hesitate any longer, immediately stood still, turned his head to Qian Fugui, and said with a hideous face: "Okay, Lao Tzu will tell them about the military deployment of the Qing Dynasty, this time, they must definitely believe Lao Tzu's words, otherwise, they will definitely regret it!" ”
