Chapter 954: Hauge's Ambition
After Fan Wencheng's arrival, Haoge understood a lot of things, including the matter of the succession to the throne, which has become the matter that Haoge is most concerned about, and Haoge's attention to Fan Wencheng has become stronger and stronger day by day.
Hauge does not have a good view of the Han people, he used to be similar to Dolgon, Duoduo, Azig and others, and he was not used to seeing the Han people enter the court of the Qing Dynasty, in the Qing Dynasty, the Han people were originally slaves of the Manchus, how could they stand on the court with the Manchus, this is definitely inappropriate, but after experiencing more things, and communicating with Fan Wencheng, Hauge finally understood that the Han people have the advantages of the Han people, and some advantages are incomparable to the Manchus, for example, in the analysis of the situation.
Of course, Hauge has ideas, if his father and the dragon return to heaven, he hopes to be able to ascend to the throne, but the biggest obstacle in front of him is Dolgon and the Duoduo brothers, the white flag and the inlaid white flag in charge of Dolgon and the Duoduo brothers, the combat effectiveness is not ordinary, and the soldiers under his command are desperately loyal, even in the status of the court, Dolgon is similar to him.
In terms of age, Hauge is three years older than Dolgon, the young uncle and nephew are brothers, Hauge has never regarded Dolgon as an elder, long-term expedition, both of them have made great contributions, and the cooperation between each other is also good, although there are some contradictions, but because there are many things in the Qing Dynasty, they have been in a state of conquest for a long time, and the two can also live in peace.
Haoge is in charge of the household department and holds the money bag of the Great Qing Kingdom, but Dolgon is in charge of the Ministry of Officials and the official hat of the minister of the court, and it is also for this reason that Dolgon's status in the Great Qing State is extraordinary.
Huang Taiji trusted Dolgon very much, and almost always approved Dorgon's suggestions. It wasn't until later, when Huang Taiji's body suddenly had problems and struggled from the line of death, that this trust changed slightly.
Hauge could see that Emperor Taiji was limiting the power of Dorgon and Duoduo. As for Azig, needless to say, he was thrown into the cold palace and stayed in Shenyang all day long, unable to be in charge of the army, unable to follow the army on the expedition, and if he could not go on the expedition, he would not have military exploits, he would not be rewarded, and it would be difficult to grasp greater power. Hauge thinks. Huang Taiji's suppression of Azig was also done for Dorgon and Duoduo to remind, not to covet the throne.
Among the children of Huang Taiji, after comparison, the one who is qualified to inherit the throne is probably Haoge.
Huang Taiji's body is getting worse day by day, which is also the actual situation that Hauge noticed. Especially after the last critical illness, Huang Taiji has lost his previous heroic spirit. There are more gray hairs, and everyone understands that Huang Taiji is slowly aging.
Huang Taiji began to pay attention to the cultivation of Haoge, and Haoge also slowly understood the importance of imperial power through Fan Wencheng's ignition, and knew that Lu Dao was the emperor. It's not so easy, for what Emperor Taiji wants to give preferential treatment to the Han people, and let the Han people enter the imperial court as officials, all of which is for the development and prosperity of the Qing Dynasty.
The Eight Banners of the Great Qing Dynasty, among which the red flag and the yellow flag are inlaid. It is personally controlled by Huang Taiji, and it is also the most noble status, followed by the red flag and the red flag in charge of Dai Shan, the red flag has suffered a devastating blow, and now it is in the process of reconstruction, Huang Taiji handed over the red flag to Dai Shan, but after the accident, Dai Shan became very calm, tried his best to support Huang Taiji's decision, and slowly accepted the view that the son inherited his father's business, even after the Huang Taiji Dragon returned to heaven, Dai Shan would not oppose the decision of Huang Taiji to inherit the throne, plus Dai Shan's age is also older, I don't know how many years it can last.
Dorgon and Dorgon were in charge of the White Flag and the White Flag, and these two armies probably fully supported Dorgon and Dorgon and Dodor.
Hauge is in charge of the blue flag, and Zilharang is in charge of the blue flag.
Among the eight banners, the yellow flag, the yellow flag, and the blue flag absolutely support Huang Taiji and Haoge, and the blue flag basically supports Huang Taiji and Haoge, and the remaining red flags and red flags absolutely support Huang Taiji, but they may not fully support Haoge, but at least they will not support Dolgon and the Duoduo brothers.
What Dorgon and Dordo could rely on were the white flag and the white flag.
From the comparison above, Hauge has the advantage.
Hauge also believed that Huang Taiji would definitely make all the arrangements and would not let Dorgon inherit the throne.
There is also one of the biggest problems here, it is said that Nurhachi once had an edict, if Huang Taiji died, Dolgon could inherit the position of the Great Khan, that is, to inherit the throne, this rumor, in the days when Huang Taiji was critically ill, the hustle and bustle supreme, whether this matter is true, Hauge will not care, but the appearance of this rumor shows that Dolgon has thought about inheriting the throne.
Before setting off from Shenyang, Haoge specifically begged his father to let Fan Wencheng follow him into the grassland expedition, and his father readily agreed, and his father also emphasized that he was looking for an opportunity to attack the camp of the Xibe and Daurian tribes and disrupt their rear, of course, Huang Taiji just suggested, after all, the Hetao grassland is far away, and any change may occur.
Haoge is very aware of the importance of this expedition, the grassland tribes, is the strong support of the Qing Dynasty, the father was able to establish the Qing Dynasty, to ascend the throne, and the strong support and submission of the grassland tribes are inseparable, before the father ascended the throne, the relationship between the Qing Dynasty and the Mongolian tribes is basically equal, but the father ascended the throne, the Qing Kingdom was established, and the relationship between the grassland tribes and the Qing Dynasty was already the relationship between the emperor and the ministers.
After setting out from Shenyang, Hauge followed Fan Wencheng's advice and did not make much fanfare, although it was in a place controlled by the Qing Dynasty, the army still adopted a strategy of day and night, trying not to reveal his whereabouts.
Along the way, Haoge and Fan Wencheng discussed many times, and each time Fan Wencheng would carefully analyze and decide what would be made, so that Haoge could understand the root of the decision.
The army entered the steppe, first reaching the front banner of the right wing of Horqin.
The leader of the Horqin tribe, who had already received the news, was waiting for Hauge in the front banner of the right flank.
The news that the Jiangning battalion joined forces with the Xibe tribe and the Daurian tribe to attack the grassland had already spread to all the tribes, and all the tribes were preparing for the upcoming battle. Su Tiancheng and Jiangning Battalion, in the Mongolian grassland, do not have much fame, and it can even be said that among the Horqin tribe, Chahar tribe, Jihan tribe and other large tribes, there is no popularity at all, and people will not pay special attention to Su Tiancheng and Jiangning Battalion, on the contrary, the army of the Xibe tribe and the Daurian tribe is still more important, and the development of the two tribes in recent years is under the attention of everyone.
The Xibe tribe and the Daurian tribe did not have much status in the grassland, for example, the Horqin tribe was divided into the left wing and the right wing, the left wing included the front, middle and rear three banners, and the right wing also included the front, middle and rear three banners, and the station of each flag was different, which could ensure that the tribe occupied as much territory as possible. But the Xibe tribe and the Daurian tribe have no such distinction at all, they used to be stationed in the Hetao grassland, close to the border pass of the Ming army, and they were always threatened by battle.
Unexpectedly, in recent years, the Xibe tribe and the Dauria tribe relied on the Ming court, the development of great strides, the strength of the force is extraordinary, Huang Taiji once asked the Mongolian tribe to carry out the expedition, the attack of the tribe suffered a fiasco, from that time, began, many tribes began to face the Xibe tribe and the Daurian tribe.
After talking with the leader of the Horqin tribe, Haoge found that the tribe despised Su Tiancheng and Jiangning Ying, he was very anxious, and couldn't care about anything else, emphasizing the courage of Su Tiancheng and Jiangning Ying, the leader of the Horqin tribe was unhappy, thinking that this was to destroy his own prestige, and in desperation, Haoge finally said that Su Tiancheng and Jiangning Ying were in Xuanzhou, and they all annihilated the Zhenghongqi, and now the Zhenghongqi is still being formed.
The many defeats suffered by the Great Qing Kingdom were hidden from the grassland tribes, and there was no need for the grassland tribes to know these things.
The leader of the Horqin tribe, of course, knows the power of the Red Flag, speaking of the Manchurian Eight Banners, they were all in the grassland, or in the Jianzhou area, and there are many connections with many Mongolian tribes, and there are also a lot of battles, the courage of the Manchu Eight Banners, the Mongolian tribes are very clear, most of the conquests, the Mongolian tribes are defeated under the command of the Manba Banner.
Su Tiancheng and the Jiangning battalion were able to annihilate the Zhenghong Banner, which shows that the combat effectiveness is indeed extraordinary.
After making the Horqin tribe attach great importance to Su Tiancheng and Jiangning Ying, Haoge was much more relieved.
After three days in the Horqin tribe, Hauge began to consult Fan Wencheng on whether the army should wait here or take the initiative to attack the Xibe and Daurian tribes.
Fan Wencheng supported the army to go out, the army waited in the Horqin tribe, it is impossible to establish any merit, since he came to the grassland, he must take the initiative to attack, at this time, Su Tiancheng and Jiangning Ying, I am afraid that I don't know that the Qing Dynasty sent an army to the grassland, taking advantage of this time, to conquer the Xibe and Daurian tribes, and the victory was expected, the armies of the two tribes went out to conquer, leaving behind the old and weak women and children.
Of course, in the process of conquest, we must be highly vigilant, not to directly confront the Jiangning battalion, once victorious, quickly retreat, not to stay in the Hetao grassland.
In Fan Wencheng's words, there has always been a suggestion, that is, Haoge wants to establish great merits, why should he establish merits, Haoge certainly understands the meaning, this is actually the meaning of Huang Taiji sending him to the grassland. Such a good opportunity, if Hauge can't grasp it, then I'm sorry for myself. (To be continued......)
