The people near the Ming Empire's Jingshi Zuojin and Beizhili had a rare and lively New Year. There is eating, drinking, and playing. Many people don't remember how many years have passed since such a jubilant day.

Compared with the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, the city of Shenyang, which is thousands of miles away, is gloomy and bleak, as if it were the end of the world.

After a crushing defeat outside the city of Ningyuan, coupled with a massive purge by Dorgon to maintain his power. At this time, the entire Shenyang City was lifeless and lifeless. Not to mention the laughter and laughter on the streets during the Chinese New Year, there are white flags floating in front of almost every house!

The large-scale sharp reduction of the number of people, the repeated strangulation of the upper echelons, and the large-scale loss of strong labor. In addition, those clothed minions who were already uneven in their hearts also began to fluctuate after Ning Yuan. Although Dolgon ordered a strict blockade of news of the Battle of Ningyuan, how could such a thing be blocked?

Not to mention the fluctuating hearts of the clothed minions, the full people who died in the family are gone. The hatred of Da Ming reached a peak. These people had no choice but to sprinkle their resentment on those minions.

Isn't the reason why the clothed minions give up their dignity to be slaves is to be able to survive in secret? When the angry Manchurians beat them to death, the rest of the wrappers stopped doing it. If you can't live anymore, who will still be a slave for you?

In a short period of time, there were a large number of rebellions by the coated minions. Many Manchurians were killed by the rebellious Baoyi, and the matter became bigger and bigger.

In the past, the pig-like minions still dared to resist? The Manchurians, who were already furious, immediately organized a large-scale killing of the Baoyi.

Facing the moment of life and death, the coaters who broke out in order to survive are also desperate. Even if you die, you must return all the sins you have suffered over the years! Pull one up and that's enough!

The Bao Yi brandished hoes and fences and fought with those Eight Bannermen, causing even greater losses to the Manchus than Dolgon's attack on Mongolia!

When Dodolgon received the news, he hurriedly sent his men to maintain order. Things have almost reached the point of no return.

After a lot of effort to separate the two sides. Dorgon felt like he was about to cry.

When has this been, still thinking about the heavens. The matter of his own second child? Don't you understand that now you have to be in the same boat to get through this together? North Korea and Mongolia have begun to drift away from Germany, and the Ming in the south is even more watching, and may pounce at any time and swallow the entire Manchu Qing in one gulp.

This is a critical juncture. That's when everyone needs to come together. How can you still do it yourself? Dorgon had lost hope for his pig teammates. These idiots don't understand that there is no one on their side anymore except for these coaters.

Dorgon suppressed the incident strongly. All were not punished. The dead are hastily collected and buried as if nothing had happened. It's just that how can the rift in my heart be repaired? It's just that it can't completely explode for the time being.

To add insult to injury, Gaoyang launched an extremely harsh economic war against the Manchus after the Battle of Ningyuan.

Although the land outside the border is very fertile, it is one of the three major black soils in the world. However, during the Xiaoice Age, when natural disasters continued, primitive farming methods were used, and there were no good rice seeds and chemical fertilizers. The grain harvest here is still not good.

Moreover, the weather outside the gate is cold, and only one season of grain can be grown a year. In this era, the yield per mu could not support so many people and livestock in the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

When the Manchu Qing Dynasty was first established, they desperately attacked the Ming Dynasty, and the main reason was to grab food to survive. As for the future, it was looting for the sake of plundering.

After coming out of the deep mountains and old forests, I entered the bustling city of Shenyang. The vast majority of Manchurians have learned to enjoy life. They need a lot of luxuries, they need a lot of daily necessities, and they also need a lot of food.

These things used to be snatched back from the Ming Dynasty, and if the things that were not robbed were enough, they used the silver to buy them from the smugglers of the Ming Dynasty, anyway, the Ming Dynasty had more silver. It's all Da Ming's stuff. It's a big deal to grab it back in the future.

Gao Yang aimed at the Manchu Qing Dynasty's barbaric strategy of feeding the war with war. The smuggling trade was strictly cracked down, with the intention of completely cutting off the smuggling channels for the Manchus to obtain all kinds of necessities for life.

Zhangjiakou and other important places where Ming smugglers traded with the Manchus were forcibly closed. Guan Ningjun also received a stern order from Gao Yang that they would not dare to engage in large-scale smuggling transactions with the Manchus for a short time.

In one fell swoop, the main channel for the Manchus to obtain all kinds of necessities for life was blocked. This has happened in the past. The Manchu Qing army attacked and plundered the Guannai. However, now let alone looting in the Guannai, if the Ming army does not take the initiative to fight, it can be regarded as the blessing of the gods and Buddhas.

At the beginning of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the location was in a place of four wars.

The north is a vast forest and snow field with no people, which is a real primitive landform, and the weather is cold and frightens people to death. Not to mention looting food or something, there are not even a few people alive.

To the west were the Mongol tribes, which were even poorer and poorer than the Manchus, and they had robbed everything they could at the beginning. Now most of the Mongolian tribes have taken refuge in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, in addition to paying some tribute of cattle, sheep and horses every year. Nothing else. On the contrary, they still need continuous assistance from the Manchus.

To the south is the Ming Dynasty, which is full of hatred. Want to get supplies from Daming, in addition to smuggling. It can only be by plunder. In previous years, it was good to say, just send troops to rob it. But now the new army is rising. Outside Ningyuan City, the Manchu elite was beaten all over the ground to find teeth. At this time, Dolgon did not dare to have the intention of going south, and the road to the south was not passable.

As for the east side. To the east is North Korea, which has been a member of the Damyeong family for generations.

Huang Taiji had attacked Korea many times before, but each time he met with fierce resistance. It wasn't until Mao Wenlong was killed by Yuan Dadu, and Dongjiang Town, which had the fiercest battle with the Manchus, completely collapsed. The Ming Dynasty lost the vital town of Dongjiang.

At the same time, it was cut off from North Korea. Huang Taiji attacked North Korea for several years, and finally subdued North Korea and had a little brother who was not so obedient.

However, when the news of the Manchu Qing defeat outside the city of Ningyuan reached Korea, the whole country was jubilant. After all, they were vassal states that had accepted the orthodox Han culture. There was not a trace of affection for the barbaric, money-rat-tailed Manchus.

I couldn't beat them before, and even the suzerainty was defeated. In desperation, he had no choice but to surrender to the Manchus. But once Da Ming turned over, he immediately returned to Da Ming's arms as a little brother.

Immediately after the end of the Battle of Nyongyuan, Joseon sent envoys to Jingshi to weep bitterly and confess to Emperor Chongzhen. Begging to be able to get the mercy of the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Chongzhen accepted the return of North Korea in a good mood and generously expressed that he was not to blame for the past. It's good to continue to be an obedient little brother in the future.

Emperor Chongzhen gave many rewards after giving them. Most of them were cigarettes, mirrors, iron farm tools, and other items brought by Gao Yang. He ordered Korea to block the logistical supply to the Manchus, and sent his envoys back.

At that time, Gao Yang was dealing with personal affairs in modern time and space, and he didn't know about it. By the time Goyang returned, the Korean envoys had already left. Gao Yang is not good at not giving face to Emperor Chongzhen, and this matter can only be like this.

After North Korea chose to return to the arms of the Ming Dynasty, in order to prevent the cruel retaliation of the Manchus in the future. spared no effort to blockade the Manchus, expecting the Ming Dynasty to exterminate the Manchus in one fell swoop. Eliminate this major problem.

Dolgon's desire to get some supplies from North Korea was also discouraged.

The envoy he sent to Korea to ask for something was beheaded and sent back. It was only at this time that Dolgon suddenly realized that Korea was actually ahead of the Mongol tribes. Not to mention that I couldn't get anything now, but there was one more enemy that needed to be knocked to the death.

With the strength of the Manchus, even if the strength was greatly lost at this time, it would not be difficult to defeat North Korea. But it was too late.

It is impossible to make a long run like the Mongols. The journey from Shenyang to Seoul is long, and the northern part of Korea is almost entirely mountainous. It's not a big part of the difficulty.

As for the matter of taking a boat all the way to Seoul, the Manchu Qing Dynasty, who did not have such a sailor at all, had no place to think about it.

North Korea is not a small area, and in the era when there was no high-speed railway, Dolgon wanted to attack North Korea. Then you need to cross the river and fight all the way over the mountains and mountains.

Not to mention in this freezing winter. Even on a hot summer day, it is not easy to get out of the mountains of northern Korea. It is estimated that by the time the attack on Seoul is reached, the side of Shenyang City will be long gone.

In desperation, Dorgon could only put North Korea aside for the time being, cursing these traitors in his heart. Calculated that after defeating the Ming Dynasty in the future, he must go on an expedition to Korea again and exterminate these capricious people in one fell swoop!

Now the Manchus were blocked on all sides. Even if you have some savings, there is no shortage of food or anything for the time being. But everyday materials such as table salt, iron for making weapons, copper for casting artillery, sulfur gunpowder, tea, cloth, and so on were all gone.

At this point, the only way out in front of Dorgon was smuggling.

"These killers who have been killed with a thousand knives! A group of insatiable guys are not afraid of being strung to death! In the Shenyang Imperial Palace, Dolgon, who had a gloomy face, took a hard puff of his cigarette and said viciously.

The smugglers in the Manchu and Ming dynasties maintained close ties throughout the year. Almost all of the bloodstained silver, jewelry, antiques, and other items they snatched from the customs were handed over to the smugglers for safekeeping.

Of course I kept it. As long as the Manchu Qing Dynasty can enter the customs and seize the world in the future, then these things will not be something that can be taken back in a word?

Which of the imperial merchants who were sealed after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs in later generations was not a smuggling merchant who had an eye for the Manchu Qing Dynasty? Everything they have is bought back with the blood of their own compatriots. (To be continued)
