The army left Liaoyang and headed for Xuanzhou.

At the beginning of the march, Fan Wencheng followed Jierharang's side, Jierharang prepared a carriage for him, but Fan Wencheng did not take the carriage, he also rode forward, the two were surrounded by Jierharang's personal soldiers in the middle, since Su Tiancheng led the Jiangning battalion soldiers to capture Lushun and occupy Fuzhou, Xuanzhou and other places, the army left Shenyang, and the vigilance was very high.

Fan Wencheng is indeed smart, along the way, he obviously felt that Zilharang was very attentive, including yesterday's and the day before yesterday's march, Jierharang's words were very few, almost not talking, and after the army arrived in Liaoyang, Jierharang and Duoduo entered Liaoyang City for dinner, the two were together for more than an hour, when they returned to the barracks, Zierharang's face was red, obviously drank a lot of wine, you must know that the amount of alcohol in Jierharang and Duoduo is amazing, these Manchurian nobles who have been fighting on the battlefield for a long time, The amount of alcohol is unbelievable, and among the Manchurians, not being able to drink mostly means not being able to fight.

Zilharan drank a lot of liquor, indicating that the conversation with Duoduo was also relatively long.

Fan Wencheng is very clear about his position in the Qing Dynasty, in the final analysis, he is still a slave, the Manchu nobles don't take the Han people seriously at all, just say that the Han people around him can't be compared with the status of the Manchus, but he has been valued by the emperor, so these Manchu nobles have a slightly better attitude towards him, Fan Wencheng admires Huang Taiji in his heart, Huang Taiji has an unusual eloquence and strategy, and it is also because of the different positions, Huang Taiji really attaches importance to the Han people, and wants to reuse the Han people. However, Huang Taiji's strength alone could not change the overall view of the Manchu nobles.

Daishan, Dolgon, Zilharan, Dordor, and others, including Hauge. They are not very polite to the Han people, these top magnates in the Qing Dynasty still pay attention to the strength of the Manchurians, and they still value themselves, which makes Fan Wencheng feel sad, in fact, the thoughts and practices of the Manchurian nobles. It must not be able to last, Huang Taiji's purpose is to overthrow the Ming Dynasty and enter the Central Plains, but to do this, how can it be possible to rely only on a few Manchurian nobles.

Fan Wencheng knew even more that he completely relied on Huang Taiji, and once the Huang Taiji Dragon returned to the sky, his end might be miserable. This forced him to take precautions, in fact, there are two paths, one is to try his best to contact the future emperor, and the other is to find a backer among the Manchurian nobles.

Fan Wencheng took a fancy to Zilharang.

Zilharang and Dai Shan and others, their identities are different, and because of the different identities, Zierharang is more cautious and handles things more mellow and mature. Hardly ever get involved in the struggle for power, such an act as Gilharang. It is very precious in the imperial court, which is easy to gain the trust of the emperor, and it is easy to be reused by the emperor.

On the other hand, Dorgon, Duoduo and Azig and others obviously have some problems, all three of them are brothers of the same father and mother, and they may have suffered from the suspicion of Huang Taiji. Now that the Qing Dynasty is in the process of struggle, Huang Taiji pays attention to talents, so he can tolerate the struggle for power and profit of Dolgon and others, once Huang Taiji is older, consider the problem of succession. The high-ranking and powerful Dolgon and others will definitely become a thorn in the flesh, and Huang Taiji has to pay attention, because the development of Dolgon and others is very likely to threaten the smooth inheritance of the throne.

As for Dai Shan, it is no longer the target that Fan Wencheng pays attention to, Dai Shan is old, he used to be one of the four major Baylors, and he has received special attention from Huang Taiji, and he has been by Huang Taiji's side for a long time, Fan Wencheng can still notice this, but he also knows that Dai Shan's opinion on himself is not small.

Fan Wencheng is actually also gambling, officialdom must gamble, this is an unavoidable thing, Fan Wencheng's identity is special, thinking of surviving among the Manchurian nobles, you have to learn to gamble, for example, he gambled that Dai Shan died before Huang Taiji, and the one who took over the throne would definitely be Huang Taiji's son, these things, in the Ming Dynasty, are very normal things, but in the Qing Dynasty, it is not necessarily, it is not clear.

In his heart, Fan Wencheng has some contempt for the cultural habits of the Manchu nobles, many Manchu nobles, they know how to fight and kill, although a very small number of Manchu nobles know a lot of etiquette, and they also know the mysteries of the officialdom, but the vast majority of them are not necessarily so clear, after encountering things, they are still used to talking with their fists and solving problems with violence.

The days of being by the side of Huang Taiji for a long time, and the importance of Huang Taiji for a long time, if you want to be unusually stable, it is also unlikely, it is possible to encounter suspicion, or even plotting, and now Huang Taiji's body is still good, and the court is relatively stable, in this case, Fan Wencheng still has confidence, he can operate very well, use a period of time, to consolidate his position, rely on the emperor's trust, and have a good relationship with a very small number of Manchu nobles.

Accompanying the monarch is like accompanying the tiger, it is the case in all dynasties, no matter what happens, doing things can not touch the imperial power, can not threaten the imperial power, if such a situation occurs, the emperor will never be polite.

From this point of view, it is impossible for Fan Wencheng to make friends with Dai Shan, Dolgon and others, he really did that, he was also digging his own grave, you must know that Huang Taiji wants to deal with him, it is just a matter of one sentence.

At noon, the climate is hot, the army naturally has to rest for a while, wait until it is a little cooler, continue to set off, it is already the season of scorching heat, the army sets off very early, and rests very late at night, and generally has to rest at noon.

Ji'er Harang stood under a big tree, Fan Wencheng stood beside him, Zi'er Harang's personal soldiers, the distance was five meters away, watching everything around, fortunately, the army was around, at this time, there was no need to be particularly vigilant.

Fan Wencheng felt that the opportunity had come, he had to talk to Jierharang, Huang Taiji was at ease with Jierharang, according to the current development trend, Jierharang could be reused in the end, no matter whether he could drink Jierharang and get in touch, at least leave a goodwill impression on Jierharang, which was also worth it.

"Prince Zheng, along the way, the slaves are really admired, the soldiers with blue flags are majestic, and the orders are prohibited, which shows the prestige of the prince......"

Zilharang didn't speak, with a faint smile on his face, if Fan Wencheng had such an attitude, he couldn't understand the meaning, it was a lie, this kind of obvious set of words, who doesn't understand, but Jierharang will not talk easily, Fan Wencheng is by Huang Taiji's side all the time, focusing on intelligence work, who knows if what Fan Wencheng said in his mouth and what he thought in his heart were not consistent.

Fan Wencheng said for a few minutes, but Zilharang didn't speak.

Fan Wencheng noticed that Zilharang's face always maintained a smile, which showed that Jilharang was not disgusted, and was even willing to hear these words.

Fan Wencheng quickly changed the subject.

"Lord Wang, the slave thinks that this expedition to the Jiangning camp, the prince is particularly important to the emperor, the slave is brave, whether he can defeat the Jiangning camp, everything is on the prince."

Zilharang's attention was quickly drawn to him, and when it came to the subject of conquest, he was sure to pay attention.

"Oh, I don't know why Lord Daofan said that, I don't feel it."

"Lord, the slave thinks that the truth in this is not complicated, the Jiangning battalion is stationed in Fuzhou and Xuanzhou, according to the reason, the Jiangning battalion sergeant stationed in Fuzhou is probably to bear the heavy responsibility of attacking, and there are 30,000 Jiangning battalion sergeants in Fuzhou, and there are only 20,000 Jiangning battalion sergeants in Xuanzhou, but the emperor just arranged for the prince and Prince Li to attack the Jiangning battalion sergeants stationed in Xuanzhou, and the slave thinks that the meaning of this is to have the meaning of attacking in two ways, destroying all the way and stabilizing the way."

Zilharang nodded, did not speak, Huang Taiji's idea, he and Duoduo also talked about it, it is not very difficult to guess this, if you want to succeed in both ways, it is obviously a bit difficult.

"Lord Wang, the slave thinks that the Jiangning battalion sergeants stationed in Fuzhou must be elite divisions, they are shouldering the task of attacking Gaizhou, Yaozhou and Haizhou, they must be sharpening their knives, the Jiangning battalion sergeants stationed in Xuanzhou, the main duty is to protect the Jiangning battalion sergeants in Fuzhou, so as not to be attacked from both sides, Su Tiancheng must know that Prince Li is stationed in Pyongyang, if Prince Li leads the army and copies the back road of the Jiangning battalion, this is something that Su Tiancheng cannot tolerate, in this case, Directly knocking out the sergeant of the Jiangning battalion stationed in Xuanzhou was a huge blow to Su Tiancheng, and it also completely destroyed Su Tiancheng's plan. ”

Zilharang nodded, and finally spoke.

"What Master Fan said makes sense, but Su Tian has become a man who does not concentrate the army, thinking of attacking in the direction of Gaizhou, Yaozhou and Haizhou, but he wants to place 20,000 soldiers in Xuanzhou, which makes some sense."

"Lord Wang, as long as you look at Su Tiancheng's actions in Liaodong, you will know the truth here, Su Tiancheng just arrived in Liaodong, and he took Dalinghe City, at that time, many people thought that Su Tiancheng would definitely attack quickly in the direction of Montenegro and Guangning, but Su Tiancheng did not do this, but completely stopped the attack and began to build Liaodong, from this level of analysis, Su Tiancheng is still very cautious, he led the army, raided Lushun, but in Fuzhou and Xuanzhou, there is no foundation, in this case, It is difficult for the army to guarantee complete victory, even if the expedition is victorious, there is no place to stand, so Su Tiancheng's idea is to stabilize Fuzhou and Xuanzhou, and let these places become his support points......"

Zilharang nodded frequently, thinking that Fan Wencheng's analysis was indeed reasonable, and it was no wonder that Huang Taiji valued Fan Wencheng so much. (To be continued......)
