After Zhang Zhang and Chen Zhengcao discussed the strategy for the next step of the Tuanshan Army, they immediately began to implement it.

The day after Chen Zhengcao returned to the Ningyuan Central Right Office, Zhang Zhang officially appointed Li Dingguo as the captain of the regimental landscape division of the Marine Corps, with the rank of guerrilla general.

Naturally, the rank of this guerrilla general is several levels lower than that of the governor, the chief soldier, the deputy general, the staff general, and so on, but it already belongs to the rank of "general". The so-called gap between school officers and generals will not be able to overcome this hurdle in the lifetime of many colonels in later generations.

Zhang Li specially went with Li Dingguo to the largest recruit training base of the Tuanshan Army in eastern Liaodong - Tuanshan Fort - where Zhang Li set the establishment of the Marine Corps of the Naval Division, 2,000 people.

Li Dingguo selected 2,000 people with the highest level of training in recent years, and in this way, the regimental water division and marine corps were formally established.

There is a difficult thing here: the soldiers of the Tuanshan Army are ordinary people from good families, and many of them don't know how to swim.

Therefore, the first training task of the Marine Corps after its establishment was to go to the Ningyuan Central Right Institute for training, focusing on cultivating the water nature of the sergeants.

The weather was still very cold, but the 2,000 marines who had marched from Tuanshan Fort to Ningyuan Zhongyou Station did not complain at all.

……

When Zhang Zhang returned to Jinzhou and began to prepare for the next strategic move of the Tuanshan Army, Hwang Tae-gil in Pyongyang suddenly became less ill and could already get up and watch the situation.

However, perhaps because of the initial recovery of his illness, Huang Taiji did not deal with military affairs, he only summoned Dai Shan, Zilharang, Dolgon, Duoduo, Haorge and other Manchu princes to meet him.

Dolgon and the others, who were originally pregnant with ghosts and even uneasy in their hearts, were still thinking about how to deal with the emperor's accusation about the fiasco of Guangluyuan, but Huang Taiji didn't say anything. only let him say a few words that were not nutritious, and then let everyone kneel down.

When Dolgon walked out of the royal palace in Pyongyang. He even suspected in his heart - perhaps, Lao Bahuang Taiji was trying to get away with it. Want to stabilize yourself first, and then wait for him to completely recover before using thunderous means?

Dolgon immediately went to discuss the matter with his brother Dordor, and other Manchu princes also had such and such "maleish" affairs, and the city of Pyongyang was panicked for a while, and an unprecedented strangeness enveloped the entire city.

In the afternoon of that day, Hwang Tae-gil, under the service of Concubine Zhuang Butai, came to the Huaiyuan Hall of the Pyongyang Palace. This Huaiyuan Hall was previously the place where the Joseon king Li Liang usually feasted his ministers, but I don't know if Li Liang read less. This is a place for fun, why take the name of the temple "Huaiyuan"?

Now that the Huaiyuan Hall has been rearranged in the style of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it seems that Huang Taiji wants to forever include Korea as the territory of "my Great Qing". Even if he himself is not here in the future, he arranges for a Belle Lord to come over and be the emperor and order the Korean country, and the cliff is also very good.

The chair rest on the dragon chair of Huang Taiji placed in the north direction of Huaiyuan Hall is made of natural antlers of the whole frame, and the antlers have two main trunks and twelve branches, which constitute the back and armrests of the seat completely. The antlers themselves are polished smooth and rounded, and they feel very good to the touch. Huang Taiji naturally put his palm on it, but a lot of feelings unconsciously rose in his heart.

Huang Taiji's memory is very clear, this big deer that was made of antlers to make a chair was hunted by himself. It was in August of the fifth year of Tiancong, that is, the fourth year of Chongzhen of the Ming Kingdom, that is, he led his army to attack the Daling River - this big deer whose horns had grown to twelve forks was frightened by the earth-shattering roar of artillery at that time, one of the beasts that rushed out of the mountain. And the great deer came straight to his sweat tent. He was overjoyed, took his bow and arrows, and hunted it.

The antlers of a deer are usually two-pronged and four-pronged. And it is very rare to grow to six forks, and this big deer has grown to twelve forks. It's just one of the few "deer rays". Therefore, Mr. Fan Wencheng Fan, who claimed to be "Jurchen Zhuge Liang" at that time. even made a "Lu Ruifu", which was written specifically about the words of the Han people that were too profound, and I really don't remember...... Anyway, I congratulated myself, saying that it was an auspicious omen from the sky, which must be a symbol of national prosperity, and also implied the meaning of "chasing the Central Plains"! Therefore, this pair of antlers, which symbolize auspiciousness, were also made into chair rests.

And now in a blink of an eye, five years have passed-

I have come to the day when the oil runs out and the lamp is dry! I haven't even reached the age of fifty, and I haven't reached the age of "knowing the destiny of heaven" as Mr. Fan said, is he going to die like this?!

Huang Taiji sighed heavily, in fact, the so-called "improvement in condition" in the past few days, he couldn't be clearer in his own heart, it's just a return to the light!

Summoned Daishan, Dolgon, and others just to let them see with their own eyes that their illness was "reduced" and give them a reassurance—all for the sake of ......

Huang Taiji suddenly felt a wave of dizziness on his head, and he was almost unable to support it. He forced himself to take his thoughts back, thinking of nothing, and gripped the dragon chair tightly with his right hand.

Concubine Zhuang Butai, who was waiting on the side, noticed that something was wrong with him, and hurriedly approached and asked anxiously, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?" Feeling dizzy again? ”

Huang Taiji closed his eyes and shook his head, but did not speak. After a long time, the dizziness disappeared, and Huang Taiji opened his eyes again.

"Burbutai, I have something to tell you......" Huang Taiji's voice was very low, very slow, without the calmness of the past, only with boundless loneliness.

"Wow——!" With a bang, Concubine Zhuang Butai hugged Huang Taiji's thigh and cried bitterly, as if she had endless grievances to tell at this moment, but she didn't know where to start.

Huang Taiji has stopped letting the imperial doctors diagnose him, saying that his condition is already well, but in fact, he doesn't want the imperial doctors to know that he is dying. Even Queen Zhezhe doesn't know all this, only Concubine Zhuang knows.

The Imperial Doctor, hmph, the Imperial Doctor is now fragrant, and Dolgon and those people don't know how many Imperial Doctors they are buying!

Huang Taiji no longer has the energy to deal with this matter, which of the imperial doctors is loyal and which is the traitor - let him go, anyway, there is no imperial doctor now.

For many years, Huang Taiji has always had a pimple in his heart, that is, Azig, Dorgon, and Duoduo, the three half-brothers who have a vendetta against him for killing his mother. Dolgon, in particular, is the deepest and most outstanding in the center of the three brothers, so the shadow in Huang Taiji's heart is even greater.

Once upon a time, Huang Taiji thought that he could control the three Dolgon brothers, and even under his disagreement, Naazig had parted ways with Dolgon and Dordor.

But this time he was critically ill, and Huang Taiji realized that he was very wrong! (To be continued.) )
