Chapter 268: Battle (4)

Dolgon is now the same, although he has not yet added the title of regent of the imperial father, but Zilharang has long been subdued, and the backbone of the Blue Banner is like this, what can everyone under it do?

Regardless of the affairs of the good elders, the kings of the two red flags, Baylor, have always been above their powers, and there is nothing to worry about.

The two yellow flags were divided and co-opted by him, and they no longer had the same strength to unite with the outside world.

The two white flags are even more centered on him, Azig is arrogant, but Duoduo is a good brother who has heard about the religion and has outstanding ability.

In the case of Henan, even if there are 100,000 troops, Duoduo will definitely be able to settle it with one blow.

Then turn to Shaanzhou, break the Tong Pass, and join the Azig Guanzhong, and the matter of the thieves will be settled.

As soon as the idea is decided, the action is fast.

At noon, messengers were sent from the palace to send a message to Duoduo and other departments.

When it was dark, the well-informed people in the city were already aware of the contents of the regent's decree, and they were discussing and thinking differently.

Ao Bai was born as Emperor Taizong's fang-swinging soldier, and he had a very deep friendship with Tan Bai, the commander of the army. After entering the city, the mansions picked by the two in the inner city are also very close to each other, the former owner of the Aobai Mansion is a Ming Dynasty squire official, the mansion has nine entrances, the main hall garden is readily available, the master left in a hurry, and even the family drama team stayed.

The trend of eating tobacco and listening to operas in Shengjing has also been around for a long time, and even rough people like Ao Bai like it, but what he likes is martial arts operas, watching the actors tossing on the stage, just have fun.

Today, there is a banquet at home, but there are not many guests, only Sonny and Tan Bai.

"Have you seen Sukh Saha? Bring someone to pass on the edict of the regent and ask the prince's guard to set up a line for him...... What is he, he is just a watchdog raised by the prince! ”

Aobai's view of Dorgon's confidant Sukh Saha was also unpleasant, and his words were quite hostile.

He was in his prime, just like the Manchurian men at that time, with five short bodies, and his body was so thick that he seemed to be about to stretch out the arrow clothes on his body, and his two legs had already been circled because of long-term horseback riding, but sitting cross-legged was very suitable.

When he was entertained at home, he didn't use a Han cook, but just killed a pig on the stove and boiled a large pot of white meat, except for salt, there was no other seasoning.

This way of eating meat is also an old Manchurian way of eating, and now the children of relatives and nobles are quite reluctant to eat meat like this, thinking that it is too greasy and tasteless.

When Huang Taiji was in power, he once issued a strict decree that the princes and nobles were not allowed to change their clothes with wide robes and large sleeves, and they were not allowed to eat tobacco and listen to operas, and of course, they were not allowed to give up the old Manchurian custom of eating meat with a knife.

Emperor Taizong regarded this matter as a major matter of national life and death, and in his words, he hated the old customs of Manchuria very much for the younger generations, and this kind of thinking also had a far-reaching impact.

As for riding and shooting to wrap yourself in, it is not expected by Huang Taiji.

Ao Bai is a person who has followed Huang Taiji for many years, and the details of his life are extremely affected, at this time he was cross-legged by the pot, skillfully cut a large piece of meat with a knife, first distributed it to Tan Bai, and then to Sony, and finally cut a piece for himself, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it.

Of course, when he eats meat, it doesn't affect him to scold Sukh Saha.

As for Dolgon, because of Aobai's courage and straightforward and honest surname, Dolgon also valued him more and had no intention of embarrassing or killing him.

This is very different from Haoge, many of the ministers and generals of the two yellow flags who followed Haoge were killed, and if they added some reasons at will, they could make the heads of these people fall to the ground.

As for Tan Tai and Ao Bai and others, if they are a little more loyal and hardworking, Dolgon is not to blame for the past.

It's probably because these people have too much prestige in the two yellow flags, and they are connected to each other, so it's too stiff. Or maybe Dorgon is still sane now, and not as crazy and perverted as he was later.

"Alas, it's a pity to give up this great opportunity like this."

Tan Bai just shook his head and sighed while eating meat: "Huaiqing's thief soldiers will definitely not be beaten, and the Ming army has also repeatedly violated the border, our Prince Su is good, and he has nothing to do in Henan." It would be great if Prince Su led the army to save Huaiqing. ”

"You're dreaming."

Sony is a well-known think-tank figure in the two yellow flags, fluent in Chinese, Xi Hanshu, famous in the Nuer Hachi period, Huang Taiji also trusted and relied on him very much after ascending the throne, and gave the knight to worship the guards, although the war achievements were not good, in the two yellow flags, it was more noticed and respected than Tan Bai and Ao Bai and others.

Five days after the death of Huang Taiji, Dolgon saw the two yellow flag ministers in the Sanguan Temple, and Sonny was the first person. It is also this person who is extremely hard-boned, and bluntly said that he must establish the son of Taizong, otherwise he can only break up.

If he hadn't taken the lead in taking the oath and the two yellow flags were hugged, Dolgon was worried about the civil war in the Eight Banners, and I am afraid that there would be no such thing as Fulin becoming emperor.

Because of this, Sonny is deeply offended, and it is difficult for Dorgon to do anything to him now, and what will happen in the future.

However, what his fate is, Sony didn't care, at this time he frowned, just said to Tan Bai: "The Nine Kings are deeply suspicious of Prince Su, throwing idleness is inevitable, and if the soldiers are really not enough in the future, I am afraid that they will never ask Prince Su to lead the army." And ......"

Speaking of which, Sony is also silent.

However, the two people present were both in the court and knew what he wanted to say. Su Wang Haoge doesn't lead the army, and if the leader can't win a big victory, if he really leads the army and wins again, I'm afraid he will have to worry about his life!

In any case, now that the forces of the two yellow flags are scattered, Hauge's own surname is a little softer. He is a good hand at war, and the political struggle is soft and naΓ―ve, and he is not Dorgon's opponent at all.

This can be seen in Dolgon's purge before the previous expedition, a group of Hauge's henchmen were purged and killed, and Hauge himself was almost killed, but Hauge only knew how to retreat step by step, did not consolidate his own power, and won over Prince Zheng or Prince Li.

Such a prince, if he really couldn't mention it, why couldn't he even compete for the throne in the first place?

"Thinking about it this way, it's a good thing that I didn't fight for the position of the general for the prince."

"No, no." Sony shook his head and said, "This battle can still be fought, and the longer it is fought, the better." ”

Tan Bai is indeed not very scheming, but he is not stupid, he is also a big man in a high position, as soon as Sony said this, he immediately understood.

The Ming Kingdom is too big, and after entering the customs, everyone understands this point better than before.

If Hauge can stay out for a long time, master the Han army more, and rectify the two yellow banners, after a few years, the power will be really strong, and then there will be capital to fight against Dorgon.

If this is the case now, the power will only get smaller and smaller, so it is better to be able to lead heavy troops.

It's just that if there is no accident, I'm afraid I can only continue to endure.

"Well, what is this!" Ao Bai threw the knife into the gold plate, and when he made a loud noise, he said angrily: "Those rats in the Southern Dynasty also dare to kill my Jurchens, Tiancong Chongde has never seen it in the past few decades?" In the Battle of Songjin, Tan Tai led 400 soldiers to intercept the grain road behind 150,000 soldiers of the Southern Dynasty, what happened now? Put me here, eat meat every day, and my belly will grow a few times, and if I continue like this, I will have to suffocate to death. ”

"You don't have to underestimate the Southern Dynasty too much." Sonny sneered: "Now the DPRK and China think that the Southern Dynasty is just taking advantage of a small advantage, and it is nothing. But think about it, the crown prince escaped from Yanjing and then went to Tianjin, not killed in the mountain of blood and corpses? Now that he is presiding over military affairs in Huai'an, I think this crown prince is not an ordinary person. Aobai, maybe there will be a chance for you to fight. ”

Ao Bai laughed loudly, as if Sony was telling a big joke. Although they cooperated with each other and had a good relationship, he had never been convinced by an intellectual person like Sony, and he replied coldly at the moment: "I hope that as you said, I want to go to Henan, follow Prince Su, and have a good understanding of the cavalry of the Southern Dynasty!" ”

"There's no need to argue." Tan Bai came out to play a round and said with a smile: "As soon as King Yu's army comes out, I don't think you have this opportunity." ”

Ao Bai sneered: "Let's see." ”

"If you have the opportunity, don't let it go." Sony is unwilling to turn his face with Aobai, and the forces of the two yellow flags are already too scattered, and it is not appropriate to start internal coaxing again. At the moment, he just said in a deep voice: "I will always have a chance to go on the expedition, and when the time comes, we must gather everyone's hearts again!" ”

Tan Bai said: "I'm afraid I can't wait for the opportunity," it is best for Prince Su to stay out for a long time. Ao Bai's eyes burned and he said, "What did the Southern Barbarian say?" will be outside, and the king's order will not be affected. At this time, I hope that the Southern Dynasty or the thieves can make more trouble. ”

"I'm afraid I have to tell Prince Su by letter."

"Not necessarily!" With a smile on his lips, Sonny said to the two people in front of him: "Isn't what Prince Su did secretly with us?" ”

Saying this, the two also suddenly realized.

Hauge grew up on horseback and commanded an unknown number of wars. The cavalry of the Ming Kingdom was only a little, but Haoge retreated again and again, and gave way again and again, and never fought an effective counterattack.

In this way, the situation in Henan is of course chaotic, and it seems that Haoge also intends to do so, deliberately exaggerating the ability of the Ming cavalry, so that his strategic position has been sharply improved.

Prince Su has done a very smart job in this matter.

In history, Duoduo went south, Azig pursued the Shun army, and the Sichuan side really couldn't send people, so Dolgon had no choice but to send Haoge with Ao Bai and others to the expedition.

At this time, because of the performance of the Ming army in Henan and other places, the two yellow flags were thinking about activities, discussing with each other, and they wanted to carry out various activities, and supported Prince Su to command the army in advance.

"I don't know, is this the blessing of my Eight Banners?"

At this point, Ao Bai and Tan Bai continued to eat meat and drink wine, and their minds were no longer on business. When the smoke and alcohol were filling, Sony was gloomy, and he felt that it was too difficult to measure.
