Chapter 362: Not idle

In 1629 AD, the second year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, and the third year of Jin Tiancong, the Chongzhen Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was very busy, while busy promoting the opening of the sea and trade in the southeast, and busy arranging the encirclement and suppression of the thieves in the northwest.

However, within the same period, Tiancong Khan of the Jin State after the establishment of the captive was not idle, and he did not dare to be idle.

The position of the Great Khan of the Later Jin State was not so upright, and it was taken from the hands of the Dolgon brothers by uniting the Great Khan of the Later Jin State, Bel Dai Shan, the Second Bel Amin, the Third Bel Mang Gurtai and others.

And when he snatched the throne of the Khan, the means adopted were also very despicable, and when the old slave had just lost his breath, the four great Baylors united and forced Abahai, the biological mother of the three brothers, Azig, Dolgon, and Duoduo, to be buried for the old slave.

After forcing Abahai to death, under the auspices of Huang Taiji, the livestock and land wealth of the three banners and Dingkou that the old slave left to his youngest sons, Azig, Dolgon, and Duoduo, was successively taken away by the four major beylers.

At the same time, Huang Taiji also changed the name of the two yellow flags left by the old slave to Dolgon and Duoduo brothers and replaced them with two white flags, and the names of the two yellow flags naturally fell into his own hands.

Through this means, Huang Taiji successfully inherited the throne, but the acquisition of this throne, on the one hand, offended the three brothers Azig, Dolgon, and Duoduo, and on the other hand, it also strengthened the three people of Daishan, Amin and Mang Gurtai.

So although I got the Khan position, this Khan position was not so stable.

In order to stabilize his hard-won throne, Huang Taiji led a large army to the east to conquer Korea at the beginning of his succession, not only defeating the king of Korea, but also plundering a large number of people, livestock, grain and grass.

Then the southern expedition to the Ming Dynasty, the west to fight Mongolia, except for a loss under the city of Ningyuan, everything else went well, and the Outer Khalkha tribes and the Eastern Mongolian tribes were annexed.

Through these measures, Huang Taiji not only established his prestige, but also gained benefits, and the Eight Banners of Jianyu also benefited a lot, and since then, Huang Taiji's position has been temporarily stabilized.

However, after the failure of Amin and Azige's expedition to Dongjiang Town against the Ming army in September of last year, Huang Taiji suddenly discovered that the situation in the Houjin Kingdom seemed to have begun to deteriorate in an instant.

On the Korean side, needless to say, after the failure of Amin and Azig to lead the army to conquer Dongjiang Town, the Ming army has already landed on a large scale, and North Korea on the east bank of the Yalu River is definitely about to gain and lose.

Although North Korea's previous ministers were a bit half-hearted, after all, it became a vassal state of Houjin, and it could be regarded as breaking one of the arms of the Ming Dynasty, and Dongjiang Town could no longer receive assistance from North Korea, and its power would inevitably be greatly damaged over time.

But now, this abacus can't work.

In the direction of the Liaodong Peninsula, the situation has also deteriorated.

The rebellion of the Fuzhou army under the command of Liu Xingzuo's brothers made Huang Taiji particularly angry.

He thought that he was good to the Han people of the Later Jin Dynasty, at least better than when the first Khan was in power, not only did he not break up and incorporate the Ming army troops who defected, but also reused the Han scholars in the small court of the Later Jin Dynasty, set up the Jixian Academy, and promoted and reused Fan Wencheng, Fan Wenhuan brothers, Ning Wan and I and other Han talents, so that they could make suggestions for themselves as close ministers who accompanied them.

But he didn't expect that even if he did this, Liu Xingzuo's brothers still defected to the side of the Ming Dynasty, and it was not only the families and children of the Fuzhou Army under Liu Xingzuo who defected, but also the Han people who had been attached to Fuzhou Zuo before they also crossed the sea and fled to the Dongjiang River.

This point especially made Huang Taiji's heart angry.

Therefore, after Huang Taiji confined Amin on the charge of losing his troops and killing Bel Azig, he soon ordered Dolgon and Duoduo brothers to lead the two white flags to Gaizhou and Fuzhou to sit in the town, and regardless of the persuasion of Hanchen Fan Wencheng, Ning Wan and others, he agreed to the two white flags to slaughter and loot the Han people in Liaodong who had not escaped near Fuzhou and Gaizhou.

Within a few months, nearly 10,000 Han people on the Liaodong Peninsula were arrested and slaughtered, and the women's wealth and silk were all owned by the two white flags.

In this way, the adverse effects caused by the failure of the two banner lords Amin and Azig to conquer Dongjiang Town were minimized by Huang Taiji with such a move.

Azig's tragic death is of course advantageous to Huang Taiji's throne, not only can he take the opportunity to take Azig's red flag and hand it over to Yue Tuo, the eldest son who is loyal to him, to take charge of it, but also take this opportunity to confine Amin for punishment and imprisonment, and hand over Amin's blue flag to Zilharang, who is also loyal to him.

Therefore, after learning of Amin's defeat and Azig's tragic death in September, Huang Taiji planned and operated this matter with the advice of several traitor strategists, and finally put all these things into practice in November, which not only eliminated the threat to his own khanate within Houjin, but also diverted the attention of the Eight Banners magnates, and found a good scapegoat for the defeat of the Eastern Crusade this time.

Moreover, in order to appease the Dolgon and Duoduo brothers, Huang Taiji, who had always watched the two white flags very closely and controlled them very strictly, finally agreed to go out with the two white flags, and in the name of quelling the Fuzhou Rebellion, he allowed the Dolgon and Duoduo brothers to rob the few Han rich women left on the Liaodong Peninsula.

At the same time when the officials and troops of Yansui Town of the Ming Dynasty suppressed the rebellion of the thieves in northern Shaanxi and killed the heads of the people, the two white flag braided soldiers of Jianyu also went on a killing spree near Gaizhou and Fuzhou, killing rivers of blood.

In this era, the high-level Jianyu never regarded the Han people as human beings, not only called them Nikan, but also regarded the Han people as personal wealth like livestock in actual actions.

First, many Han people in this era have not yet awakened, and they are indeed a little weak and deceitful, and they don't know how to resist, and they don't dare to risk their lives to resist.

Second, many of these Jianjun were savage Jurchens who had just been annexed to the Jianzhou Jurchen Department from the mountains and forests, and they had no other way to make a living except hunting, looting, and killing.

Although the early Han people in Liaodong lived in poverty, compared with those Jurchens, at least there were houses to live in, food to eat, and iron pots to cook and eat cooked food, while in contrast, those Jurchens had nothing, and they couldn't make their own, so they had to rob the Han people's things.

In this way, over time, in the eyes of the Jianyu Jurchens, the Han people were their prey, and they were the prey that was riskless to hunt.

During the period of the old slave Nuer Hachi, any Jurchen doll who had reached the age of 12 could enter the Han village with a knife and kill and rob people, but the Han people could not resist.

How can a Jurchen man who has been "edified" since childhood be soft-hearted or awe-inspiring when facing the Han people?

At this time, Huang Taiji thought that allowing the two white flags to do so on the Liaodong Peninsula was just a proper restoration of the Han policy before the Mandate of Heaven Khan, and would not cause any serious trouble.

But he was clearly wrong.

Everything in this world has cause and effect, and whatever cause is sown, what will bear fruit in the end.

At this time, it seems that it is just that the few remaining Han people on the Liaodong Peninsula have been killed and robbed, but it is just that the millions of Han people who were not stable under the rule of the Later Jin State have intensified their flight to the Yalu Jiangdong, but in the long run, such an act has aroused the painful memories of the Han people in Liaodong for the Nuer Hachi period, and planted the seeds of hatred in the hearts of more Han people in Liaodong.

These seeds will one day take root and sprout, and will blossom and bear fruit.
