After the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, in 1680 (the 19th year of Kangxi), a wall was added outside the city, which was 7 feet 5 inches (2.79 meters) high, surrounded by 32 li and 48 steps (16.080 kilometers), with an area of 11.9 square kilometers.

"Zhongqing, the army of Zhengming has returned with a full load, and now it has reached five miles south of Shengjing City." Huang Taiji sat on the dragon chair on the platform of the Chongzheng Hall and announced to the ministers with a smile on his face.

The Chongzheng Hall is the most important building of the Shenyang Forbidden City. The whole hall is all wooden structure, five rooms and nine purlins hard mountain type, there are partition doors, front and back corridors, surrounded by stone carved railings. The pillar of the hall is square, there is a head of spitting water under the pillar, and the top cover is covered with yellow glazed tiles inlaid with green trimming; The pillar of the hall is round, between the two pillars is connected with a carved dragon, the dragon head sticks out of the eaves, the dragon tail goes straight into the hall, the practicality and decoration are perfectly combined as a whole, and the imperial spirit of the temple is increased. This hall is the place where Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty deals with important affairs every day, in 1636 A.D., the ceremony of changing the name of the country to the Qing Dynasty was held here.

Prince Haoge of Heshuosu said happily: "This kind of action, a few more times, it will be time for me to enter the Central Plains." ”

Whenever I think of the splendid rivers and mountains of the Ming Dynasty, Haoge is a warm heartbeat.

Huang Taiji, the eighth son of Nurhachi, the second Great Khan of the Later Jin Dynasty, and the founding emperor of the Qing Dynasty. Since he was a teenager, he often hunted and fought with his father and brother, and he was skilled in riding and shooting. After the death of Nurhachi in the 11th year of the Mandate of Heaven (1626), Huang Taiji was elected to inherit the throne of Khan, and the following year was changed to the first year of Tiancong. In the first year of Chongde (1636), he proclaimed himself emperor in Shengjing (present-day Shenyang), founded the country under the name of Daqing, and forced Lee's Joseon to submit to the Qing Dynasty. In the eighth year of Chongde (1643), Huang Taiji died suddenly on the eve of the Qing army's entry into the customs, and failed to realize his long-cherished wish to seize national power. After his death, his ninth son, Fulin, ascended the throne.

Haoge is the eldest son of Huang Taiji and a native of ZLQ. At the beginning, he was named Baylor, and in July of the sixth year of Tiancong (1632), he was promoted to Heshuo Baylor. In April of the first year of Chongde (1636), Jin was named Prince Heshuosu, in June of the same year, he was in charge of the affairs of the household department, and in December he followed Huang Taiji to conquer the Joseon Dynasty. In August of the third year of Chongde (1638), he accompanied Dolgon to attack the Ming Dynasty, and in April of the following year, he was in charge. In March of the sixth year of Chongde (1641), he was demoted to the rank of county king. In July of the seventh year of Chongde (1642), he was re-promoted to the title of prince because of his military exploits. After the Qing capital BJ, he was still crowned the prince of Su. In March of the fifth year of Shunzhi (1648), he was framed and cut down by Dolgon, and was later imprisoned, and died in prison in April of the same year at the age of forty.

"Every operation to conquer the Ming Dynasty was a triumphant return, which not only dealt a heavy blow to the morale of the Ming army and people, but also weakened the national strength and military strength of the Ming State, laying the foundation for the future entry into the Central Plains." Anping Beledudu said excitedly.

Du Du, Manchurian Zhengbai Banner, year of birth unknown, grandson of Nurhachi, eldest son Guangluo Belle Chu Ying, first son. Initially, he was given the position of Taiyoshi.

In the ninth year of the Mandate of Heaven (1624), he was named Baylor. In the first year of Tiancong (1626), he followed Bel Amin and Yue Tuo to invade Korea. In the third year of Tiancong (1628), he followed Huang Taiji to attack the Ming Dynasty, ravaged the Ming capital BJ and defeated the Ming reinforcements. In the seventh year of Tiancong (1632), the Ming generals Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming defected to Houjin, and Du Du cooperated with Belezir Harang and Azig to Zhenjiang to meet them. In the first year of Chongde (1636), he was enshrined as Anping Baylor. In the sixth year of Chongde (1641), he attacked Guangning and defeated the Ming reinforcements from Songshan and Jinzhou. He died in June of the 7th year of Chongde (1642).

"Your Majesty, King Wuyingjun and they have returned triumphantly, and those people are sent to greet them?" Hanchen Fan Wencheng bowed, lowered his head and asked respectfully, because Huang Taiji had quietly told him about Yanguli's defeat.

Fan Wencheng is a member of Xiandou, known as Huiyue, and is a native of Shenyang, Liaodong. In the forty-third year of Wanli (1615), he was admitted to Xiucai in Shenyang County at the age of 18. In the forty-sixth year of Wanli (1618), the Later Jin Eight Banner Army captured Fushun, and Fan Wencheng and his brother Fan Wenyu took the initiative to see Nurhachi and became one of the traitors. During the period of Huang Taiji, he was deeply relied on, and he participated in the decision-making of all the strategies of the Ming Dynasty, the rebellion against the Ming officials, the attack on Korea, the pacification of Mongolia, and the construction of the national system. In the fifth year of Kangxi (1666), Fan Wencheng died at the age of 70.

After thinking for a while, Huang Taiji said: "Prince Haoge of Heshuosu, Dorobelle Yuetuo, Prince Daishan of Heshuoli, Du Du Jin is named Anping Belle Dudu, Huaishun King Geng Zhongming, Gongshun King Kong Youde, Zhishun King Shang Kexi, etc., on behalf of the United Nations, went to Huaiyuan Gate to greet them in recognition of their achievements.

"Yes." Everyone promised to walk out.

Dolgon, the Prince of Rui, and Duoduo, the Prince of Yu, looked at each other and smiled meaningfully, because their henchmen in the army had written back in advance to inform them of the defeat of Yanguli, and they were waiting to see Huang Taiji's deflated appearance. Dolgon and Duoduo are the half-brothers of Huang Taiji, and the two have conflicts with Huang Taiji for various reasons.

Soon, Azig, Abatai and Yanguli came to the Chongzheng Palace, and after kneeling and saluting, Azig reported to Huang Taiji: "Your Majesty, since our army broke through the monolith mouth and entered the Ming Kingdom on June 27, it has won more than 50 days, 11 cities, 56 battles, 137,800 men and animals, more than 2 million taels of gold and silver, and 10 boxes of antique calligraphy and paintings. ”

"Wow! So much. Prince Heshuoli exclaimed in surprise.

Huang Taiji nodded frequently, and said with a smile: "King Azig and Abataibele, you fought on the battlefield and achieved such great results for the Qing Dynasty, and I want to reward you, but, I want to ask you, according to common sense, when retreating, the baggage should be placed in front, and the rear of the elite army is safe, but you are the opposite, why is this?" ”

Azig "chuckled" in his heart, knowing that someone had reported the situation during the retreat to Huang Taiji, he was a rough and unthinkable person, so he said with a big grin: "Your Majesty, I arranged this matter to lure the following Ming army to attack and destroy them. ”

"Nonsense. You obviously despise the Ming army. You have been fighting for many years, don't you know the truth that a proud army will be defeated? Your approach is completely gambling, fortunately, the Ming army is cowardly, afraid of the trap, which allows you to safely take these things out of the customs, if the Ming army out of so many generals who dare to fight, can you still return with a full load? Huang Taiji reprimanded sharply with a calm face.

Azig knew that he was wrong, so he didn't dare to argue, so he had to bow his head and say: "What Your Majesty said is that the minister is wrong, please punish Your Majesty." ”

Seeing him bow his head and admit his mistake, Huang Taiji's face was a little pale. The tone soothed and said: "The reason why Lian is angry today is to remind you not to underestimate the enemy, the Ming Dynasty has many people and vast land, and the materials are abundant, they can afford to lose, but we can't afford to lose." Okay, that's all, you all the way to the dust, pommel horses are tired, go back and rest first, and I'll announce the rewards and punishments tomorrow. ”

"Yes." Azig and Abatai spoke, bowing and leaving.

Seeing that the two of them went out, Huang Taiji stared at Yanguli in a blink of an eye. There was silence in the Chongzheng Hall for a while, and no one dared to make a sound, and Fan Wencheng and the others were even quieter, and they didn't even dare to breathe.

After watching it for a while, Huang Taiji said in a flat tone: "Duke Yanguli, you can also go down, and when the meeting is dispersed, I have something to talk to you about." ”

"Yes." Yanguli agreed, and withdrew with a depressed expression.

In the Dawu Temple, Zhang Xianzhong, Li Dingguo, Liu Wenxiu, Ai Nengqi, Sun Kewang, Pan Duao, Xu Yixian, and General Bai Wenxuan were listening to Xu Yixian's narration of "The Art of War". After being defeated by Lu Xiangsheng and fleeing to Dawu Mountain, he had nothing to do, and in order to make a comeback, he asked Xu Yixian to interpret the military book for him.

“…… Soldiers, treacherous ways. Therefore, it can be shown but cannot be used, it is not used to show it, it is near and it is far away, and it is far away and it is shown to be near. Profit and temptation, chaos and take, real and prepared, strong and avoid, angry and scratch, humble and arrogant, hard work, kiss and leave, attack its unpreparedness, surprise. The victory of this soldier cannot be passed on first, and it can be ......," Xu Yixian read word by word.

Zhang Xianzhong listened and compared the battle examples he commanded, the more he thought about it, the more excited he became, he slapped the table with a "snap", and he said happily: "This grandson, what a strange person, wrote such a military book thousands of years ago, it is really amazing, if there is such a person now, our old Zhang has to get him to work for Lao Tzu." ”

At this time, a small officer of the peasant army guarding the door came in and knelt down and said, "Commander, the brother who sent Li Zicheng to deliver the letter has returned." ”

"Oh! Call him in, and I'll ask him something. Zhang Xianzhong said.
