Chapter 285: Dolgon's Reaction

"What? The 5,000-strong army was routed by the Ming army, and the governor was captured! Jinan Governor Yamen, hearing the news, Shandong Governor Fang Dayou was stunned, and the teacup in his hand fell to the ground with a "snap" and shattered. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Ignoring the mess underground, Fang Dayou "Huo's" stood up, grabbed the chest of the messenger, and shook it vigorously, no longer having the usual gentleness and elegance.

"Are you talking nonsense, Governor Wang commands an army of 5,000 people, who can defeat him in Shandong?" Fang Dayou's eyes widened, and his hideous face frightened the soldiers who reported the news into panic.

Pushing away the soldier who reported the news, Fang Dayou staggered back and sat down in the officer's chair.

He knew that the soldiers who reported the news did not have the courage to deceive themselves, so Wang Aoyong's army of 5,000 was really defeated!

The governor and the governor are in charge of the army and the people, but the governor is one level higher than the governor. It is said that Wang Aoyong's capture should be happy, because Wang Aoyong's capture gave him the opportunity to rise to the rank of official and sit on the throne of governor.

But at this time, Fang Dayou didn't want to sit at all, because he knew that the position of the governor was too hot.

Nominally, the whole of Shandong has been subordinated to the Qing court, but the resistance of the Ming army in various places has come and gone, and even the remnants of the Shun army are not to be outdone. Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Laizhou, Dengzhou, and most of Shandong are not peaceful.

Fang Dayou knew that he could not quell the Ming army riots in various parts of Shandong with his own ability, and if he became the governor, he was likely to end up like Wang Aoyong.

"My lord, what should we do? I heard that the rebel general Li Shiyuan had captured Qingzhou, and he was about to send troops to attack Jinan. Master said cautiously on the side, his words made Fang Dayou even more frightened.

"Quick, hurry up and prepare pen and paper, I want to write to the imperial court, please send 10,000 Manchurian soldiers to quell the riots in Shandong!" Fang Dayou ordered in a panic.

......

Beijing Imperial Palace, Qinzheng Palace.

The furnishings in the hall are as always, and there is also a favorite picture of Emperor Chongzhen on the wall, "Qingming Riverside Map". This famous painting of Zhang Zeduan of the Northern Song Dynasty, once passed into the hands of many people, fell into the hands of the traitorous minister Yan Song during the Jiajing period, and later Yan Song dismissed the official and copied the house, this picture was included in the palace and became the treasure of the Ming Emperor of the past dynasties.

Chongzhen hung it in the Qinzheng Palace, and would appreciate it whenever he had leisure, hoping that one day he would be able to build his empire as prosperous as the Northern Song Dynasty.

However, history is always strikingly similar, with the bustling city of Tokyo being conquered by the Jurchens, and the paradise on earth in the Qingming Shanghe Diagram being completely destroyed. At this time, the capital of the Ming Dynasty also fell into the hands of the Manchurians, descendants of the Jurchens, and civilization was once again conquered by barbarism.

The scenery is still the same, but the people are different, at this time the owner of the Qinzheng Hall is the ruling king of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Dorgon. The Qing court was still on its way to Beijing, and Dolgon was the master of Beijing at this time.

Dolgon sat on the dragon chair and looked at the "Qingming Riverside Map" on the wall, Beijing is not as prosperous as imagined, poor people, dilapidated houses, and cold streets are far from being compared with the Qingming Riverside Map.

Of course, although the war-torn Beijing was ruined, it was far better than the bitter cold land of Liaodong, and the Manchu capital Shengjing could only be regarded as a remote village and town compared to Beijing. Dolgon was not dissatisfied with this.

Much to the sorrow of the Manchu prince Rui, the plague broke out in the city of Beijing, and many of the able-bodied Manchu soldiers fell ill. This made Dolgon's plan to conquer the Ming Dynasty shelved, except for sending troops to set red flags Dugu Mountain Ezhen Yechen led troops to attack Taiyuan, and sent Gushan Ezhen Jue Luo Bahana and Shi Tingzhu to lead troops to collect Hebei and Shandong, there was no move to send troops.

There were less than 10,000 people in total who attacked with only one Manchurian red flag, one inlaid with blue flags and one Mongolian flag, and most of the Manchurian Eight Banners, Mongolian Eight Banners, and Han Army Banners stayed in Beijing.

Most of the Han Chinese in Beijing were expelled from the city, and the plague gradually subsided. However, the summer heat in Beijing made the Manchurians, who were accustomed to the cool weather in the northeast, quite uncomfortable, and summer was really not the best time to march into the army.

In addition to the hot weather, the Han Chinese in Beijing also annoyed Dolgon. When he first entered Beijing, the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty who had originally served Dashun took the initiative to serve but very few, except for a few people such as Wang Ao, Yongfang, and Dayou, most of the other officials were waiting and watching, and the difference between the Manchus and the Han Dynasty made many people unable to take the step of surrendering to foreign races.

Dolgon, who was familiar with the Han classics, knew that in order to really occupy the Ming Dynasty, he had to get the loyalty of the scholars, so after entering Beijing, Dolgon really did the Lixian corporal, and all Ming officials who were willing to surrender were appointed to their original positions.

Compared with the demotion, Fan Wencheng, Hong Chengchou and others, who had long been demoted, were suppressed and did not directly hold important positions.

But there are still too few officials who are willing to surrender, and many people secretly went south and went to Nanming, don't these people know that the Qing Dynasty is the destiny of heaven?

At this moment, a eunuch cautiously walked in and told the bachelor Fan Wencheng to ask for a meeting.

Fan Wencheng is forty-eight years old this year, and he defected to the Manchu Qing Dynasty as early as the 46th year of Wanli, and he is considered a hardcore traitor. He is currently a scholar and assists Dorgon in political affairs.

"The slave greets the prince!" Fan Wencheng knelt humbly and saluted, his butt pouting, and his ugly money rattail pigtail hanging down the back of his head.

"No rudeness!" Dolgon smiled as Fan Wencheng stood up. This minion is really easy to use, and it has helped me a lot. Although the Manchurians are brave, they are all big and coarse, and they are good at leading troops to fight, and they still need the assistance of these Han officials to govern the country.

"Lord Wang, the governor of Shandong, Fang Dayou, sent an urgent report, saying that there was a riot in Shandong, and the governor Wang Aoyong commanded an army of 5,000 to go to Jiaozhou, but was defeated by the Ming army in Gaomi, the army was dispersed, and Wang Aoyong was also captured by the Ming army.

Li Shiyuan, the former Qingzhou staff general, rebelled and returned to the Ming Dynasty, and the orthodox commander of the army attacked Qingzhou and peeped into Jinan, which was extremely critical. Fang Dayou reported to the imperial court and asked for 10,000 Manchurian soldiers to quell the riots in Shandong. ”

Dolgon squinted his eyes and listened to Fan Wencheng's advice, and his expression was not flustered at all.

"What do you think?" After Fan Wencheng finished speaking, Dolgon asked calmly.

"Lord Wang, the students think that Shandong is located at the throat from Beijing to the Central Plains, stuck in the canal artery, if you seek the Central Plains, then Shandong cannot afford to lose, and it is advisable to send troops to attack Shandong." Fan Wencheng, as Dolgon's advisor, knows the current situation very well, "However, Shandong does not have the main force of the Ming army, so there is no need to send as many as 10,000 full soldiers." ”

"The Bachelor is right." Dolgon nodded, "Wang Ao, Yongfang, Dayou and the others are so incompetent that they can't even handle a small rebellion. You will draft an order to order Meile Zhangjing, Tuo, and Li Shutai, who were originally reinforcing Shanxi, to lead the department to Shandong and set foot in Jiaozhou! (To be continued.) )
