The fourth volume of the sharp blade out of the sheath Shenzhou moves

Dolgon's head shook a little drowsy as he pondered the questions posed by the Emperor.

To be honest, he's been obsessed with the death of Duoduo lately, and he really hasn't really thought about these things.

Fortunately, he is not an incompetent person after all, although he is not as amazing as Huang Taiji, but the IQ of ordinary people is still there, especially when there are prompts.

"Brother Huang, is that referring to his action to eliminate the Jin merchants?" Dorgon replied with some uncertainty.

The contact with Jin Shang has always been personally controlled by Huang Taiji, and he did not interfere. I only know the importance of the Jin merchants to the Qing Dynasty, and I don't care about the specifics.

"Not bad!"

Huang Taiji nodded approvingly, this is where Dorgon is different from Duoduo and Azig, not blindly advocating force, knowing the importance of soft power.

This is also a matter of no choice, Houjin has only been out of the deep mountains and old forests for many years, there is no culture, no history, and just a group of barbarians.

Some of the tactics of the big war on weekdays, or learn from the Three Kingdoms of the Han people, how good can the clansmen be?

If it weren't for Huang Taiji's superb skills and calculations, it would be difficult for Jiannu to develop to such a point?

Qin Haoming, the general of the Ming Dynasty, didn't know where to get the information and uprooted the Jin merchants who had a secret agreement with the Qing Dynasty, which can be said to have cut off the lifeblood of the Qing Dynasty.

The fourteenth brother didn't know how important the Jin merchants were to the rise of the Qing Dynasty? ”

Huang Taiji's face was heavy, his fat big hand was holding the wine glass, he shook his head and said:

"Food, cotton and linen, armor, iron...... Even all the necessities needed for life, the Qing Dynasty could not be self-sufficient.

Not only that, without them, none of our Dongzhu, ginseng, furs, etc. could be sold to the Ming Dynasty in exchange for any strategic materials needed by the Qing Dynasty.

It is no exaggeration to say that with the Jin merchants, the Qing Dynasty has no worries, as long as they are strong and rob the money from the Ming Dynasty.

But now without them, the Qing Dynasty has fallen into a difficult place. ”

Facing Dolgon's puzzled gaze, Huang Taiji got up and continued to explain: "Fourteenth brother think about it seriously, even if the original Ming Dynasty is unbearable, what can the Qing Dynasty get by entering the customs and plundering?

It is nothing more than the property of the population and, at most, food.

But by plundering alone, we simply cannot obtain a steady stream of strategic materials that are useful to the Qing Dynasty. ”

Dorgon nodded, agreeing.

Entering the customs and plundering the Ming Dynasty was only a strategic need, and the purpose was to strike at the war potential of the Ming Dynasty.

As for the strategic materials obtained, they are certainly not as much as the systematic and targeted purchases of the imperial court. What's more, some strategic materials are mostly on the coast of the south of the Yangtze River, and the Qing Dynasty is beyond the reach of the whip.

Besides, entering the customs and looting, it is also risky, after all, war is dead.

Without the help of these Jin merchants, Huang Taiji said that the Qing Dynasty was in danger, and it was really not alarmist.

It is no wonder that the people who were so murderous at the beginning of the father and Han were also courteous to the Ming and Jin merchants, and never made it difficult for them, the original root is here.

Huang Taiji saw Dolgon's frequent nods, and a hint of relief flashed in his eyes. Today's Qing Dynasty really needs the two of them to work together to tide over the crisis.

"The role of Jin merchants in the Qing Dynasty is not limited to this!" Huang Taiji's sharp eyes stared at Dolgon, and said in a deep voice:

"The Ming Dynasty has a territory of thousands of miles, a vast territory, and millions of people wearing armor, and its every move is not perceptible to the Qing Dynasty.

But the Jin merchants and merchants are all over the Ming Dynasty, and the powerful people in the DPRK and China have an inextricable relationship with them, and they are traitors in the northwest, and they are also very secret.

Therefore, there is a lot of turmoil in the Ming Dynasty, and they are always the first to get information.

Otherwise, relying solely on the secret agents of the Qing Dynasty in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, it is okay to fight, kill, kill and run errands, but if you want to have any connection with the upper echelons of the Ming court, it is not enough, let alone get the intelligence ......"

Speaking of the back, Huang Taiji's fat face sighed, obviously deploring the destruction of Jin Shang.

Huang Taiji's actions, Dolgon felt very strange and ridiculous. The monarch of the Qing Dynasty actually missed the merchants of the Ming Dynasty, and it was amazing how many people were surprised that this was going to be spread.

"Ridiculous?" Huang Taiji put his hands behind his back, his eyes were vague and inexplicable, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad, but he just muttered to himself:

"I have long said that the Ming Dynasty is a behemoth, and compared to it, the Qing Dynasty is just a firefly light, insignificant.

What we are doing now is, at best, a pack of hyenas, snatching food from the tiger's mouth while he is not looking. When they come to their senses, the Qing Dynasty will have no chance.

This is also why I have always been willing to make peace with the Ming Dynasty, and even willing to sacrifice some things in my name. It's a pity that Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty did not agree.

Even if they are defeated militarily? ”

Huang Taiji sighed generously.

The iron bones of the Ming Dynasty, he is a leader. In the past, military victories were one after another, but Chongzhen could not bow his head. Now, I'm afraid it's going to be even harder.

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji shook his head and said in a deep voice to Dorgon:

"There was a time when I thought that the Qing Dynasty would continue to develop like this, accumulate strength, and when the time was ripe, I would eventually have the opportunity to become the master of the Han people.

It's a pity that this Liaodong War made me see the facts clearly, after all, the Han people are full of talents and heroes, and the Qing Dynasty is not as good as more!

Qin Haoming, Yan Yingyuan, Zhang Yun, Lu Xinrong, Wu Feng, Yan Yu...... Originally, they were all unknown people, but they unintentionally let the Qing Dynasty lose their troops and generals, so that they were in danger. ”

Huang Taiji did a lot of homework during this time, and left the Dingnan Army in Liaodong and the Korean generals sent people to understand and investigate, and at this moment they turned out to be like a treasure.

"Not really!" Dolgon replied proudly, somewhat unconvinced:

"Don't talk about them, it's the previous Liaodong Governors of the Ming Dynasty, Xiong Tingbi, Wang Huazhen, Sun Chengzong, Yuan Chonghuan, Hong Chengchou, which one is not a hero of the Ming Dynasty?

But who can stop them from the rise of the Qing Dynasty?

In the final analysis, they can't control the Liaodong Jiangmen at all, and the internal friction of the Ming Dynasty is ......"

At this point, Dolgon finally came to his senses, and at the same time understood the purpose of Huang Taiji's visit and the anxiety he saw.

Is the combat capability of the Ming army really worse than that of the Qing Dynasty?

Dolgon had commanded the army for many years, so he naturally knew that this was not the case.

They all have two shoulders and one head, and no one has three heads and six arms, so it is not necessarily better than whom.

Even, many children of Liaodong Jiangmen families have practiced martial arts since childhood, and their personal combat ability is no worse than that of the Qing warriors.

The Sichuan White Pole Soldiers, the Zhejiang Qijia Remnant Army, the Guanning Iron Cavalry, and the Nine Border Army generals are all enough to compete with the Qing Dynasty.

Moreover, in many skirmishes, they may be superior.

But only in large-scale battles, even if the Ming army is superior, the defeat must be the Ming army.

Why?

It's not that the people are not aligned, there are many mountains in the army, there are many factions, and no one is willing to die.

Everyone regards their own family as the capital to save their lives, and refuses to use it for battlefield fighting, so that they have the prestige of the Qing Dynasty's invincible battles.

Of course, the Qing Dynasty also had eight banners, factions, and battles, but after all, there were few people and it was easy to control. Coupled with the increasing prestige of Huang Taiji, there are fewer such phenomena.

Thinking of this, Dolgon's eyes were complicated.

Compared with Huang Taiji, after all, he is inferior in vision and pattern, especially in subtleties.
