Chapter 875: Zilharang's Confusion

When Jierharang led the army from Shenyang, he was still a little depressed, because of Dai Shan's self-esteem, he led the blue flag to go out this time, which seemed unclear, which had a great impact on the morale of the army, in fact, the army was going to Xuanzhou, to deal with the Jiangning battalion soldiers stationed in Xuanzhou, this is a regular combat mission, the sergeant with the blue flag set off from Shenyang, passed through Liaoyang, Tianshui Station, and went straight to Xiuyan, from the front to the Jiangning battalion stationed in Xuanzhou to attack, to undertake the main combat mission, Dai Shan, who set out from Pyongyang, led the soldiers of the Zhenghong Banner to attack the Jiangning battalion from the side through the direction of Sumeru Island, and attacked the Jiangning battalion stationed in Xuanzhou on two sides, which was the task determined by Huang Taiji.

Zierharang has always focused on the overall situation, and because of his special identity, Zierharang takes care of the overall situation, some things would rather suffer by himself, Daishan is one of the four great Baylors, is the elder brother of Huang Taiji, when the first year of Chongde was established in the Qing Dynasty, he was also named the first prince, Jierharang will not argue with Daishan about the length of the matter, anyway, the main task of the army is to defeat the Jiangning battalion stationed in Xuanzhou, if possible, more to destroy the vitality of the Jiangning battalion, but the difficulty is also great, The key is that the sailors of the Jiangning battalion are powerful, and the Great Qing Kingdom has no sailors, once the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion escape to the sea, they will have no way.

Huang Taiji sent Fan Wencheng to accompany the army, which made Zilharang even more annoyed.

has been in Shenyang for a long time, everything that happened in the imperial court, Jierharang has seen it in his eyes, he knows Fan Wencheng's thoughts very well, and he also knows that Fan Wencheng is dedicated to the Qing Dynasty. But some of Fan Wencheng's concepts and practices are different from the understanding of the Manchus, who value family affection, although Huang Taiji is the emperor, but in some cases, Daishan, Dolgon and others. In front of Huang Taiji, it is relatively casual, and he dares to say what he thinks, no matter what different understandings they have with each other, but everyone is for the Qing Dynasty, for the Qing Dynasty to be able to defeat the Ming Dynasty and enter the Central Plains, and it is precisely because of this atmosphere that the development of the Qing Dynasty is rapid.

Of course, Zilharang also understands. If someone's actions threaten the authority of Huang Taiji, or even threaten the imperial power, then Huang Taiji will not be polite, there are many examples in the front, including his father and brother, are in such a thing, Zilharang is very careful in this regard, and strives to maintain the prestige of Huang Taiji. Nothing can be done without touching the imperial power. It is precisely because of such efforts that Zilharang has been valued by Huang Taiji.

However, in the past two years, Huang Taiji's mind has changed slightly, probably under the influence of Fan Wencheng, although Huang Taiji and the Manchu nobles still seem to be close, and everyone has the opportunity to eat together. Drinking together, discussing the major decisions of the Great Qing Kingdom, but Huang Taiji began to slowly pay attention to the cultivation of his children, and slowly began to establish the power of Haoge, Ye Bushu and others, which is probably a rainy day. Prepare for the next emperor of the Great Qing Kingdom.

In the Qing Dynasty, the prestige of Huang Taiji is still unshakable, some Manchu nobles because of their own interests, there may be some complaints, Huang Taiji is also trying to maintain balance, on the one hand, efforts to improve the status of the Han people, limit the power of the Manchus, on the other hand, they are also reusing the Manchus, in fact, the important ministers in the court, the ministers who hold the actual power, are basically Manchus, although Fan Wencheng is highly trusted by the Huang Taiji, but the power in the court is still limited, mainly in decision-making, It has an impact on Huang Taiji.

The Qing Dynasty has such a situation, it is not a simple thing, after a lot of efforts, Nurhachi and Huang Taiji, generation after generation, are working tirelessly, compared with the Han people, the Manchu people are very few, the number is insignificant, if the Manchu people can not be unprecedentedly united, it is impossible to compete with the huge Han people.

After years of observation, Zilharang also noticed that although the number of Han people is large, it is basically a plate of scattered sand, all for their own interests, Huang Taiji once summed up, in terms of personal quality, the Han people are obviously stronger, knowledgeable, and knowledgeable, but the Han people are not united, they are all for their own interests, and the things they do are even more flattering, for their own interests, they can abandon the interests of the country, seeing that the Ming Dynasty is already crumbling, but those Han people in the court are noble, Still thinking about themselves, they didn't think about what they would do once the Ming Dynasty fell. Perhaps some people have the same opinion as Fan Wencheng, and it is okay to surrender to the Qing Kingdom, as long as they can keep their own glory and wealth.

Over the years, Huang Taiji has used Fan Wencheng to drive a wedge between the Han people many times, so that some Han people have taken refuge in the Qing Dynasty, including Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming and Shang Kexi, all of whom have taken refuge in the Qing Dynasty, and Huang Taiji is very concerned about the Han people who have taken refuge in the Qing Dynasty.

To tell the truth, Zilharang still learned a lot from Huang Taiji.

At least this time with Fan Wencheng on the expedition, Zilharang will pay special attention, no matter what, Fan Wencheng is still capable, and Fan Wencheng has the intelligence network of the Great Qing Kingdom, and can analyze many situations according to intelligence, and the last time he won a huge victory in Liaodong, intelligence played a great role.

Among the Manchu nobles, no one wants to specialize in intelligence work, and it is not suitable to do such a thing, many Manchu nobles think of fighting on the battlefield, and what they think of is to kill the enemy face to face, besides, engaging in intelligence work, you need to sit still, you need to spend a lot of brainpower, and this is probably not the specialty of those Manchu nobles.

The army arrived in Liaoyang, and after settling outside the city, Zilharang and Duoduo entered Liaoyang.

The officials of Liaoyang had already arranged the mansion, but the two of them would not stay there, they were with their own army, and the next day the two of them were to march in different directions, Duoduo went to Haizhou, and Zilharang went to the direction of Tianshui Station.

Entering the restaurant, and just sitting down, Duoduo spoke.

"Prince Zheng, why didn't you invite Master Fan to come?"

Jierharang was a little surprised, he didn't have such a consciousness at all, Fan Wencheng is Huang Taiji's most trusted Hanchen, in the future battle, Jierharang will unconsciously avoid, as for some of the opinions and suggestions put forward by Fan Wencheng, he will be based on the actual situation, clear whether to adopt, Huang Taiji believes in Hanchen, he can't be too close, otherwise what will Huang Taiji think, for a long time in Shenyang, Jierharang has long noticed these situations.

Zilharang has always been very cautious, and has a general relationship with many Manchu nobles, and never engages in those gangs, especially when facing Daishan, Dolgon, Duoduo, Azig and others. When Dodor suddenly said something like this, he didn't know what he meant.

"Prince Yu said with a smile, Lord Fan is very busy, when he marches all the way, he is constantly analyzing intelligence, in order for the army to be able to conquer smoothly, Lord Fan is forgetting to sleep and eat, I am much more relaxed, I can come to eat and drink with Prince Yu, if there is a chance, I am also ready to ask Lord Fan to give Prince Yu ideas."

Duoduo had a smile on his face.

"What Prince Zheng said, in fact, I already feel it, Xuanzhou is the focus of the emperor's attention, Prince Zheng and Prince Li joined forces to attack Xuanzhou, and the Jiangning battalion sergeants stationed in Xuanzhou, but 20,000 people, how can they resist my 40,000 army, my side is attacking Fuzhou, the main task is to stabilize the Jiangning battalion sergeants in Fuzhou, so that they can not reinforce Xuanzhou, once Prince Zheng and Prince Li are victorious, the three-way army will attack the Jiangning battalion sergeants stationed in Fuzhou, so that they can not gain a foothold."

Zierharang nodded, Huang Taiji's arrangement, he also noticed, this may be the reason why Huang Taiji asked Fan Wencheng to follow him to Xuanzhou, it is very likely that Fan Wencheng will also talk about these things the next day.

"What Prince Yu said is ah, this expedition, you and I are not light tasks, the emperor has always emphasized that the Jiangning battalion is the biggest opponent of my Qing Dynasty, this time you and I have to face the Jiangning battalion sergeants, or we can't be negligent, if we can win a complete victory, then it is better, if we can't win a complete victory, at least we need to get rid of them."

When Zilharan said this, Dodor let out a long sigh.

"Prince Zheng, I won't tell you, during this time in the capital, I have seen a lot, I used to be stationed in North Korea, what I thought of was the things over there, and I didn't need to worry about so many things, but now the situation is different, let's just say that this Jiangning battalion, if it can't exterminate the vitality of the Jiangning battalion, they are stationed in Dengzhou, how can the emperor be peaceful, they can fight across the sea at any time, covering a wide range, so that my Qing national defense is overwhelmed, so I think that the emperor's request this time, It is still necessary to exterminate the vitality of the Jiangning battalion, otherwise it would not have sent an army of 100,000. ”

Zilharan looked at Dorgor and did not continue to talk about the conquest, but changed the subject, he didn't know, why Dorgon would understand so many things, and think of things so far away, this is a rare situation, if Dorgon thought of this, it is not unusual, after all, Dorgon's insight is far stronger than Dodor.

Zilharan didn't want to continue talking about these things, and in a few days, he and Duoduo were going to start a fierce battle, and before the big battle, it was important to regulate their emotions and not appear so nervous. (To be continued......)
