Chapter 656: Among the kings, only the Book of Heroes is available
The emperor's personal expedition is no better than that of the prince and the prince of the county, and the court and the central government have to prepare many things, the first priority is to select the soldiers and horses of the personal conscription, and then the grain and grass needed for the army, and then the local support, the formulation of the marching route, and the liaison of the governor and the general army in various places. www.biquge.info In short, the pro-conquest is not a matter of the emperor's casual remarks, and the army can immediately leave Beijing.
After several days of court discussions, it was finally decided that the battalions of the Eight Banners of the Forbidden Brigade in Beijing would accompany them, and more than 20,000 Mongolian troops from other feudal domains would be recruited from outside the mouth for the emperor's direct dispatch, and the green battalions in Shandong, Henan, Shaanxi, and Beizhili would also be transferred to accompany them. However, these battalions were first unified to Nanyang Mansion and concentrated, first under the control of Prince An Yue Le, and then under the unified command of the imperial camp after the arrival of the imperial driver.
After the Council of Princes and Ministers lost his temper that day, Shunzhi did not get angry again, and the matter of ordering troops and transferring generals was done by Sony, and he was also happy to be idle, first stayed in the concubine Dong E for two days, and looked at the increasingly haggard concubine It was very uncomfortable, and after calming down the sad mood, he went to the queen mother.
The emperor insisted on levying in person, and the council of princes and ministers passed it, and the queen mother, who boasted that she did not interfere in politics, could not force it, so she could only tell the emperor again and again, and the rest was to pray for his son in front of the Buddha every day and return with Su Ma. The Queen Mother can't help but worry, although the emperor is an adult, but after all, he has never been through the battle array, unlike Taizu Taizong, who grew up in the deep palace since he was a child and was raised in the hands of women.
In order to reassure the Queen Mother and make the elderly less worried, Shunzhi deliberately took the third elder brother Xuanye, who was raised outside the palace, back to the palace, and asked him and the second elder brother Fu to accompany their grandmother all day long, which really made the Queen Mother a little less worried. The Queen Mother is forty-six years old this year, although she is well maintained, and she looks the same as thirty people, but after all, she is a grandmother, and her heart is gradually going towards the elderly, so she can be unhappy when she sees her grandson every day, and when she is happy, her body and mind are naturally good.
The emperor waited to lead the army south to show his skills, but the Manchurian Eight Banners in the capital were shrouded in gloom. Guangzhou set up a full city, Hahamu took away so many Eight Banners children and families, as a result, the city of Guangzhou was broken, and tens of thousands of Manchurian family members called Taiping Kou to slaughter them clean; Prince Jian conquered the south and buried more than 2,000 Manchurian children; In the battle of Mopan Mountain in the southwest, four or five thousand Manchurian children died in the barren mountains and mountains. In the past two years, eight of the ten families in the Jingli Banner have held funeral services, and this will believe that the prince is still leading tens of thousands of elites in the southwest mountains without a class teacher, and the emperor wants to drive the expedition in person, just ask, which one of the eight banners in Beijing does not panic? But what the emperor decides, what can the flag people do?
In just two or three days, the lively capital has become bleak, and those men are looking at their men in the Eight Banners of the forbidden journey, and the more they look at them, the more reluctant they become. The Manchurian generals of the Eight Banners of the Forbidden Brigade also knew about the matter, and no longer spent all day drinking everywhere, but stayed at home with their wives and children when they came back from duty. Without the expenses of these Manchurian masters, the business of kilns, restaurants, and gambling houses in Beijing suddenly decreased greatly, and there were more poor Han officials in and out, which caused the kiln sisters to scold and be angry.
What do the people below think, Shunzhi can't control it and doesn't want to care, but keeps urging Sony to move faster, be quicker, and prepare as soon as possible.
Sony They also want to be fast, but how can this matter be fast, it's okay to say that the matter of transferring troops and generals is to be named according to the book, but the food and grass needed by the army can't be conjured up with a roster. A group of ministers will be regarded as having done bitter water, and finally solved the matter of grain and grass, but when they look back, they are bitter again. The grain and grass are there, but the money has not yet been dropped?
As soon as the cannon sounded, the gold was ten thousand taels, and the Manchurian children asked for silver, and the Mongolian soldiers of the outer domains came to fight for the Qing Dynasty, and they also had to give benefits, and the green battalions of the Han army also had to give silver, otherwise how could they be expected to sell their lives? This time it's a royal expedition, it's unusual, Sony They don't dare to let the following make a fuss before they reach the enemy territory, but they slaughter and loot the city in their own territory first, so no matter what, this silver has to be prepared, and it won't be possible to do it without one or two.
The master doesn't care about anything, and the minions can't cry out when they're tired. Sonny and Ao worship them are really tired enough, and those Manchurian princes and ministers are also spread out with their hands, and they don't ask about bullshit, and the emperor wants to conquer himself, and it's not that they want to fight. The master's affairs, you two minions of the Yellow Flag don't help with the cooking, who will help do it?
Prince Kang Jieshu was bent on doing things, thinking that the emperor trusted him for his favor, so he entered the palace and prepared to advise the emperor again. He said to Shunzhi: "The minister thinks that since the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the Ming army has always been good at internal strife. When Zuo Liangyu went east to Nanjing, later Tang and Lu were opposed, Tang and Gui were opposed, and then Sun Kewang and Li Ding's internal strife followed, and every time the Ming army was infighting, I was always able to reap the benefits of the fisherman. ”
Listening to Jieshu's words, Shunzhi nodded slightly, Jieshu said well, if it weren't for the internal strife and splits within the Ming army, it would be really difficult for the Qing Dynasty to sit firmly on the Han people's country.
"Go on." Jieshu's words let Shunzhi listen, so he motioned for him to continue.
Seeing that the emperor was willing to listen to his words, Jie Shu was overjoyed, and then said: "Actually, the minister thinks that the situation in the south now is the same as it was back then, or even worse than it was back then. Although the Zheng pirates of Jinxia are respected by Yongli, they actually go their own way. Li Dingguo in the southwest is from the Great West Thief, and his Feng Yongli and Sun Kewang Feng Yongli are afraid of the same, and they may not have much loyalty. And that Guangdong Zhou Reverse, looking at the sudden rise of a new army, strong soldiers and strong horses, but there is no status like Li Dingguo, the minister heard that Yongli only gave this person a Xingping Bo, and the southern pseudo-Ming county king, the prince of the country does not know much, so Zhou Reverse, a mere Xingping Bo, and then the soldiers are strong and strong horses are always unable to deter other pseudo-Ming forces. And the most important thing is that now Zhou is strong, Li Dingguo's soldiers are weak, and Zhu Youlang, the puppet master, abandoned the country and fled, and now the puppet Ming has no co-master, so the minister thinks that Zhou Shun, who has more soldiers and horses, will not bow to Li Dingguo. ”
Hearing this, Shunzhi shook his head and said: "Doni reported that Li Dingguo asked Wu Sangui to go to western Yunnan, but this week, he has two Guangzhous, and actually occupies half of the lake, the territory is not connected with Li Dingguo, and the soldiers and horses are not under the jurisdiction of Li Dingguo, and the two may not have a gap." ”
Jie Shu said with a smile: "The emperor can rest assured, even if Li Dingguo and Zhou Rebellion can't make trouble, there will be trouble within Zhou Rebellion this time." The ministers heard that Zhou Shun Taiping Kou had many troops and generals, so Zhou Shun could really use them with confidence? If not, how should Zhou Wei deal with these surrendered generals, if he is not careful, these generals will probably come out again. And even if Zhou Wei and Li Dingguo really cooperate sincerely, but now that Zhu Ming has no co-master, Zhou Wei will inevitably have the heart to support Lili, and when he relies on more soldiers and horses to support an emperor again, Li Dingguo, the king of Jin who Zhu Youlang is sealed, will agree? ”
After Shunzhi heard this, he didn't speak, but his eyes told Jieshu that he said this to the emperor's heart.
Jie Shu was greatly encouraged, and continued: "Your Majesty, in fact, there is no need to worry about Yunnan, Zhu Youlang abandoned the country and ran to Burma, and Li Dingguo survived in western Yunnan. If Li Dingguo wants to gain a firm foothold in western Yunnan, he has to collect grain from those toasts, not only once or twice, but too many times, will those toasts still be willing to be bullied by Li Dingguo? Hong Chengchou made it clear in the report that Li Dingguo had repeatedly poisoned Tusi in western Yunnan and slaughtered the city several times. In addition, the group of generals under Li Dingguo and him are trapped in western Yunnan, these people are originally from the Great Western Thieves, and it is okay to share hardships and hardships, but it is difficult to share wealth and prosperity. Our army is pressing, they are tightly hugged, supporting each other, and it is easy to shake, but if there is no threat from us, what does the emperor think of them? ”
"What do you mean?" Shunji made a contemplative look.
Jie Shu said: "The minister thinks that the southwest should be slowly planned, and not impatient. ”
Shunzhi raised his eyebrows and said, "How?" ”
"On Li Dingguo's side of Yunnan, Wu Sangui can be put off on the march, more appeasement to Tusi, and more persuasion to surrender to the Ming army, so that Li Dingguo can not get the support of Tusi, and he can't gather soldiers and horses, so that they can fend for themselves."
Shunzhi groaned slightly, nodded and said, "This strategy is okay." ”
Jie Shu said: "For Zhou Rebellion's side, my Qing officers and soldiers who surrendered to the past, the imperial court did not pursue them, and there was no martial arts. As long as they are willing to return, the original official will be promoted to one level to make up for it. ”
"Isn't it to do this to those traitors that they think I'm a bully?" Shunzhi's eyes flickered, and he didn't approve of this policy.
Jie Shu chuckled: "The emperor feels uncomfortable, how will Zhou Yi look at this matter?" ”
Shunzhi thought for a while and said, "Like eating a mouthful of flies? After speaking, he shook his head violently: "This plan is too simple, I think it's all child's play, how can Zhou Cheng be fooled." ”
"This discord meter looks simple, and it won't have much effect for a while, but after a long time, it will always have an effect. And the important thing is that the emperor personally led the army to kill, how should the rebel generals choose? At that time, will Zhou Wei trust them, or guard against them? ”
After hearing this, Shunzhi was speechless for a long time, half heard his body, and sighed to Wu Liangfu next to him: "Among the kings, only the masterpiece book is available." ”
.......
Under the words of Jieshu, Shunzhi issued several holy decrees in a row, first commending Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi, Hong Chengchou, the governor of the five provinces, Li Guoying, the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, Gao Minzhan, the governor of Guangxi, the governor of Guangxi, Cheng Weixin, the governor of Guangxi, and others, Zhang Changgeng, the governor of Huguang, was also explicitly commended. At the same time, it was decreed to announce to the world in the form of a Tang newspaper that the Qing Dynasty was not to blame for the defeat of officials who surrendered to the enemy, and their families were not implicated.
At the same time, Shunzhi issued two more wills, one for the righteous king Sun Kewang of Changsha, and the other for the princess Kong Sizhen and the forehead Sun Yanling. (To be continued.) )
