Chapter 615: Eyelids Jump, Things Are Not Good

North Zhili, Great Wall,.

Huang Taiji's car departed from the Hara Hetao (west of present-day Chengde, Hebei Province, east of the beautiful Bashang grassland). Huang Taiji liked this place very much, especially staying here for five days. The grassland here is very beautiful, which makes Huang Taiji linger. He decided that when he had the opportunity in the future, he would build a large palace here as a place for him to live in his old age.

Yes, Huang Taiji, who is not yet forty-five years old, doesn't know when he started, but he actually began to think about his old age. Even he didn't know why he had such thoughts. It stands to reason that he is only forty-three years old this year, which is the prime of life. Most of the time, he can even connect with the third maiden at night, and there is no problem with his body at all. What a strange thing.

After the car drove to Gubeikou, it was already night, so Huang Taiji ordered to camp here. The Great Wall at Gubeikou had already been destroyed when Hauge and Abatai broke in. Now, if you look around, you can see traces of Yaishi's projectiles. In the eyes of Huang Taiji and others, these traces are like the medals of the Dajin Kingdom, recording the history of the Dajin Kingdom becoming strong step by step.

Huang Taiji's golden tent is, of course, the largest and most spacious, and there are also the largest number of Dajin troops standing outside. Huang Taiji likes to be quiet, and in his tent, there are only at least a few cronies. Ordinary people are not approved and are not allowed to go near the nearby area at all. As for women, there are certainly none. When the Dajin Army goes out, it is strictly forbidden to bring women. Huang Taiji believed that one of the main reasons why the Ming army was defeated repeatedly was that the officials brought the atmosphere of eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling to the troops. This is absolutely forbidden by the Daikin Army.

After dinner, Huang Taiji was reviewing the recital. Huang Taiji himself has a good cultural literacy, he is very yearning for the culture of the Han people, and actively promotes measures to revitalize culture and education. In the third year of Tiancong, he first proposed to "fight chaos with martial arts, and promote peace with literature and education", changed his father Nurhachi's policy of massacring literati, and held an examination that year, and selected 200 Manchu, Han and Mongolian students. He has recognized the importance of the development of culture and education in governing the country, and said that he should not think that he would not be mistaken if he did not study.

Huang Taiji also specifically stipulated that from the sixth year of Tiancong, the children of ministers under the age of fifteen and over the age of eight were all ordered to study. The Manchu text created by the Nurhachi era has no circle points, the upper and lower words are the same, the names of people and places are very easy to make mistakes, and the emperor Taiji ordered Bakshida Hai to add circle points, which greatly facilitates learning, which is the origin of the Manchu text with circles. Huang Taiji also attaches great importance to absorbing the advanced culture of the Han people.

By July of the sixth year of Tiancong, when Dahai died, the Chinese books that had been translated by him included "Criminal Department Huidian", "Sushu", "Sanlu", "Wanbao Quanshu", and "Zizhi Tongjian", "Liutao", "Mencius", "Three Kingdoms" and so on. Later, he ordered the son of Dahai to continue to study Hanshu. In the ninth year of Tiancong, the ministers of the Wenguan of the Later Jin Dynasty translated the history books of the Liao, Jin, Song and Yuan dynasties.

Suddenly, someone came to report that Zilharang had come. Huang Taiji immediately invited him in. Zilharang came in steadily, and was about to salute, but was waved by Huang Taiji and asked him to be exempted. At the same time, Huang Taiji stood up from behind the desk, stretched his waist, and asked with concern, "Ah Dou, what's the matter?" ”

"Adou" is the Manchu word for younger brother. Zilharang was raised by Nurhachi since he was a child, and his relationship with Huang Taiji is very iron. The two are not brothers, but they are better than brothers. Huang Taiji is seven years older than Zilharang, and has always called Zilharang Adou. On the contrary, Azig, Dorgon, and Dordor were his own brothers, but he never called them that.

Zilharang said with a strange expression: "Ah Hun, my eyelids have been jumping around since the morning, as if something is going to happen, you don't need help here, right?" ”

"Ahun" is the Manchu word for brother. Although Huang Taiji became the Khan King of the Dajin Kingdom, he still asked Zilharang to call his brother, instead of calling him the Khan King seriously. Such a title is also unique. Because, even Azig, Dolgon, Duoduo and others, in front of Huang Taiji, they also have to call him the Khan King in a proper manner. Relatives from near and far, you can know it at a glance.

After listening to Zilharang's words, Huang Taiji smiled, stretched out his hand to move his body, and said relaxedly: "Adou, don't worry, nothing will happen." ”

Zilharang rubbed his eyelids and said with a sigh: "I don't know why, my eyelids are beating very hard, maybe I'm old, and I always like to think about things." ”

Huang Taiji laughed out loud and said eagerly: "Ah Dou, you are scolding me!" When did you learn the Han people's little ninety-nine? Learn to change the way to scold people! I'm older than you, and I haven't even said I'm old, so why do you say I'm old. When you enter the customs this time, you will harvest some Han beauties, and I will give you the most beautiful ones. In them, you certainly wouldn't say old. ”

Zilharang shook his head. Actually, he doesn't like women very much. The Mongols wanted to marry the Manchus, and the emperor Taiji originally arranged several family affairs for him, but Zilharang only agreed to his son and daughter, and his own did not agree. Of course, some people say that Zilharang's vision is too high and he looks down on Mongolian beauties. Well, the beauties of the Mongolian nationality, compared with the women of the Han people, are indeed more than strong and not gentle.

Huang Taiji jokingly said: "You still like North Korean girls? The last expedition to Korea, after you came back, I knew that you had a ghost in your heart. No problem, after this Southern Strategy is over, I will let you lead the army to Seoul alone, what kind of beauty do you want, and you can't catch it yet? ”

Zilharang said honestly: "North Korea does have some beautiful ......"

Huang Taiji laughed, very satisfied with this cousin's reaction. In front of him, there has always been no secrets, what to say, this is the most fundamental reason why Huang Taiji trusts Jierharang. Who wouldn't want others to open up to themselves? It's tiring to deal with people like Dorgon every day.

Jierharang rubbed his brows, felt that his eyelids were still jumping hard, and said a little uneasily: "Ah Hun, will there be any loopholes in our arrangement?" Could there be something you didn't expect? ”

If this sentence is said by someone else, Huang Taiji must think that the other party has something in mind, whether he is scratching his pigtails. Especially when Dolgon said it, Huang Taiji must definitely be highly suspicious. Even if he didn't mean to offend, he was doubting his ability as the Khan King of the Great Golden Kingdom. However, when this sentence came out of Zilharang's mouth, there was no such meaning, he was really wondering whether there was really a loophole in the deployment of the Dajin Army.

Huang Taiji said confidently: "Ah Dou, don't worry, there will be no problems." Our plans for the South Strategies have been carefully considered. I'm not a novice, you're not a novice, and Yue Tuo is not a novice, so what's the problem? Even if you take 10,000 steps back, if there is really a problem, with the ability of the Ming army, you can't catch it. ”

His self-confidence is not without reason. Because, this is the third time that Dajin Kingdom has entered the army. The so-called thing is only three, with the experience of the first two times, the third time comes, it must be a familiar road. The war has developed so far, only better than expected, and absolutely nothing worse than expected. According to the current situation, the third southern strategy will definitely be another bumper harvest.

Yes, what could happen?

This time, the 100,000 troops of the Dajin Kingdom entered the fortress, and such a powerful force exceeded the sum of the previous two invasions. The strength of the Dajin army is getting stronger and stronger, but the strength of the Ming army is getting weaker and weaker. The Liaodong Army of the Ming Army, as well as the Xuanda Army, which the Dajin Army paid great attention to, have not yet reacted greatly. Huang Taiji has every reason to believe that the Ming army of these two legions must be avoiding the edge of the Dajin army again.

Taking 10,000 steps back, even if there are really some minor problems in the deployment of the Dajin Army, the Ming Army will not be able to grasp it. With the suspicious nature of the Han people, most of them would think that this was a trap deliberately left by the Dajin army. If the Ming army really dared to come out and fight the Dajin army, he would definitely fight the Ming army full of bags. In these years, there is nothing more pleasant than fighting with the Ming army, it is completely hunting rabbits!

The only thing Huang Taiji is worried about is whether his logistics can be helped. After all, the northern part of the Ming Kingdom has experienced many years of drought and failed to harvest grain. At the same time, Dajin Guo just came in last year, and basically everything that could be snatched was snatched. So far, the grain and forage that the Dajin army has grabbed are not particularly large.

The 100,000 Dajin Army, with more than 100,000 war horses, plus the population, livestock and other things that were looted in the future, may be in the millions. The amount of food and forage needed every day is a huge number. And these grains and forages must be replenished on the spot. Therefore, for the sake of safety, Huang Taiji brought Fan Wencheng, Shang Kexi, Geng Zhongming and others. They are Han Chinese, so they naturally know where there is the most grain and forage. As long as they point out the location, the Dajin army will attack.

"Adou, it's okay, it's definitely okay."

Huang Taiji said with certainty again.

With Huang Taiji's character, in fact, he rarely packs tickets. But in front of Zilharang, Huang Taiji patted his chest and slapped the package ticket. In fact, Huang Taiji really firmly believes that there will definitely be no bad changes in the plan of the Dajin Army.

At this time, a subordinate hurriedly came and reported: "King Khan, Zhenghongqi Maoba Li urgently asks to see you. ”

Huang Taiji was a little surprised and said, "Maobali? Positive red flag? ”

Zilharang was also a little curious.

Zhenghongqi took the initiative to send someone to see Huang Taiji?

What an abnormality! Absolutely abnormal! Very abnormal!

In fact, the henchmen around Huang Taiji all knew that Huang Taiji really didn't want to see Azig, Dolgon, and Duoduo. If it weren't for the oath made by Huang Taiji in public, he would never reduce the number of Niu Lu of the other banners, otherwise, Huang Taiji would definitely reduce the Niu Lu of their three banners to only the last one, and the number of Niu Lu owned by this Niu Lu would definitely not exceed fifty people.

Similarly, Azig, Dolgon, and Duoduo also did not want to see Huang Taiji. Zhenghongqi has almost no contact with Huang Taiji. Unless it is a written order from Huang Taiji, otherwise, other methods cannot be adjusted at all. Azig didn't have the ability to wrestle with Huang Taiji secretly like Dolgon, but he could still do it easily.

This is also the reason why Huang Taiji has recently focused on reforming the Eight Banners system. Huang Taiji was ready to take measures to gradually weaken the power of the Eight Banners and concentrate the power to transfer troops to fight in the hands of the Khan. Zilharang turned out to be the banner owner of the blue flag, and in order to cooperate with the reform of Huang Taiji, he took the initiative to let Xian and gave up the position of the flag owner.

Maubali is a person who is the red flag, what is he doing here? And it's an urgent request. The whole country of Dajin knows that Huang Taiji never discusses matters at night, and that is his study time. Unless there is something extremely important. Maubali was Azig's confidant, and it was impossible not to know this rule. In this way, things are very abnormal.

Zilharang covered his brow vigorously, feeling that his eyelids were jumping harder and harder. He remembered something and shouted outside, "Ba Qilan, Samhash, Wu Bahai, you all come in!" ”

Three fierce Tartars immediately came in outside, and after saluting Huang Taiji, they stood in various positions of the camp tent to protect Huang Taiji in all directions. They are all Huang Taiji's henchmen and guards, and they all carry weapons. Apparently, Zilharan was thinking too much and wondered if Maubali had some special purpose in calling them in for safety.

Huang Taiji didn't believe that Azig had the courage to send an assassin to assassinate him, and he said with a blank face, "Let him in." ”

After a while, Mauba Li came in with heavy steps, kowtowed, and said in a tired voice: "Moba Li see the Great Khan." ”

Huang Taiji didn't let him be exempted, and when he finished saluting, he said gently: "Maobali, where have you been the main force of the Red Flag?" ”

Moba Li replied with a somewhat blank expression: "Hui Great Khan, I arrived in the area of Hejian Province in the southernmost part of Beizhili. ”

Huang Taiji said noncommittally: "Oh, the speed is quite fast, you bothered." ”

Zilharang saw a clue, and after obtaining Huang Taiji's consent, he frowned and asked, "Maobali, you came in a hurry, is something wrong?" ”

Maubali said bitterly, "Twelve Baylor requests to resign from the post of Banner Master of the Red Banner. ”

Huang Taiji looked happy, then stunned, then gloomy, and then seemed to be a little overwhelmed. No one saw such an expression. Because, the attention of other people was all attracted by this sentence of Maubali. There's no way, Mobali's words are too lethal.

Azig actually took the initiative to resign as the owner of the Red Flag! Is this the sun coming out of the west? In the past, no matter how Huang Taiji suppressed, Azig was unmoved, and stubbornly held the position of the owner of the Red Banner. Now, he actually took the initiative to resign as the flag owner? This...... What the hell is going on? Or maybe Azig has gone mad?

Zilharang reacted very quickly, and said in a lost voice: "Zhenghongqi has lost the battle? ”

Nonsense! If it wasn't for the defeat, or the super defeat, how could Azig be willing to give up the throne of the Zhenghongqi Banner? Within the Dajin Kingdom, there is an unwritten rule that the owner of the Eight Banners who has won a great defeat can be exempted from punishment if he resigns voluntarily. Didn't Azig do this to escape harsher punishments?

The other slave chieftains around were shocked by Zilharang's exclamation, and their attention was immediately focused on Mobbal. Azig actually fought a defeated battle? How can it be? These slave chiefs are all Huang Taiji's henchmen, including Ba Qilan, Samhash, Wu Bahai and others, although they are not the banner masters of the Eight Banners, they are all in charge of the elite soldiers, and they are of course extremely sensitive to defeat. However, how is it possible that Azig actually fought a big defeat?

Maubali wept and said, "Twelve Belles...... In River...... fell for Zhang Zhun's tricks and suffered heavy losses...... Ten cows are gone......"

"Whew!"

Zilharang couldn't help but gasp.

"Ahh

The other slave chiefs were also taken aback, feeling stiff on their faces.

Huang Taiji's face instantly became extremely pale, and he was originally quite calm, but he suddenly rolled his eyes and was about to fall backwards. The guards next to him, Ba Qilan and Sam Hashi, hurriedly stepped forward and supported Huang Taiji, while Ji'er Harang quickly stepped forward and pinched Huang Taiji's people. At the same time, he quickly turned out some black pills from the side of nowhere, and brought a water bowl and asked Huang Taiji to drink the pills.

I don't know when it started, when Huang Taiji was excited, he was more likely to faint, and called a lot of witch doctors to see, but in the end he didn't see anything. A Han doctor said that the sheep was crazy, but he was ordered to be pushed out and beheaded on the spot. Later, I still got some miraculous black pills from the Mongolians, and as soon as I had symptoms, I took one immediately, and my condition would get better quickly.

Sure enough, after taking the black pill, Huang Taiji's expression slowly improved. It took a while for Huang Taiji to stabilize his emotions, and his face slowly returned to normal. He coughed lightly twice, and said in a stern tone: "Mobali, you speak slowly, don't miss anything." ”

Maubali hurriedly explained them one by one from beginning to end. Zhenghongqi has been crippled, and must rely on the power of Huang Taiji to recover, and of course Mobali will not have anything to hide. Because of his failure, Azig has taken the initiative to resign from the position of the leader of the Zhenghong Banner, and even if Huang Taiji wants to pursue it, it will definitely not be as severe as Amin. Everyone else has given up military power, and if you pursue it again, other Manchurian nobles will have the sadness of the death of a rabbit and a fox.

Inside the Golden Tent, it was so quiet that only the sound of breathing was there, and everyone was quietly listening to Mobali's narration. In between Maubali's words, a needle fell to the ground, as if it could be heard. It was December weather, but everyone felt a little hot. Especially Huang Taiji, who had just finished taking the black pill, obviously had some abnormal flushing on his face.
