Huang Taiji never dreamed that a looting that showed the power of the Great Qing Dynasty would appear in such a situation, 100,000 people from the Eight Banners went out of the customs, and more than 20,000 people were lost in just one battle, and Abatai was captured alive, and the battle reports played in front of Azig were all good news, how many victories were achieved, how many cities were broken, which made Huang Taiji very happy, after all, the Great Qing Kingdom had just been established, and he had just ascended the throne as the emperor, who knew that at this juncture, such a big thing happened.

The angry Huang Taiji almost thought of leading the army to conquer in person.

Huang Taiji was able to get to his current position, it took a long time to struggle, the four great Baylor, Amin and Mang Gurtai were all suppressed by him, and the remaining Dai Shan had already become honest, and the power of the Great Qing Kingdom was almost concentrated in his hands, but this was not the time to sit back and relax, after all, the newly established Great Qing Kingdom was still facing a lot of trouble.

Huang Taiji is not a hairy boy, he can judge the situation, can make accurate judgments, in his opinion, although the Qing Dynasty was established, but it still takes a certain amount of time to enter the Central Plains, whether it is from the comparison of troops, or from the amount of money, the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty have a certain gap.

Huang Taiji is very concerned about the situation of the Ming Dynasty, so many years have passed, the Ming Dynasty has not been able to exterminate the internal rogue, the national strength has been greatly reduced, which has won a lot of opportunities for the Qing Dynasty, Huang Taiji personally led the army, several times into the pass to loot, obtained a lot of money and population, especially to plunder a large number of Han people, so that the planting technology of Liaodong has been significantly improved, can produce some food. You must know that the Manchu people basically do not know how to farm, and are accustomed to a nomadic and hunting life.

The loss of the Eight Banners reached more than 20,000 people, and Abatai was captured by the Ming army, which in the eyes of Huang Taiji, was a heavy defeat. Fortunately, Azig was still sober and withdrew from the Gyeonggi land of the Ming Dynasty, if Azig ignored it and continued to attack, it might cause even heavier losses.

There are a lot of people in the Ming Dynasty, and there are not so many brave soldiers in the Eight Banners.

Daisho Hall. Prince Li, Prince Daishan, Prince Zheng, Prince Jierhalangrui, Prince Dolgunsu, Prince Haogecheng, Prince Yuetuo, King Duoduo of Yujun, King Adali of Junjun and others are all here.

There is also a Hanchen who Huang Taiji trusts the most, Fan Wencheng, who is also in the main hall.

When Huang Taiji ascended the throne, Fan Wencheng was enshrined as a scholar of the Inner Secretarial Academy. The second-class Lajing Zhang can be said to be the first person among the Han people. Don't look at Shang Kexi, Geng Zhongming and Kong Youde and others were crowned kings, but their status is far from being comparable with Fan Wencheng, Huang Taiji crowned them kings, but it was for many Ming generals to see, but they really trusted Fan Wencheng, and Huang Taiji discussed military affairs every time. Fan Wencheng's opinion must be consulted, and most of the edicts proclaimed by Huang Taiji are from Fan Wencheng's hand.

Huang Taiji is very clear. His brothers and nephews are very brave in battle, but in terms of culture, they dare not compliment, this may become the law, and the biggest problem is. The Manchus looked down on Han culture and considered the Manchus to be the highest ethnic group. It is believed that the Manchu culture is much stronger than the Han culture, and the Manchu people have no interest in the Han culture at all. This made Huang Taiji very difficult, he was first the emperor of the Manchus, and then the emperor of the Mongols and the Han people, fundamentally speaking, he had to protect the interests of the Manchus, and then he could take into account the interests of the Mongols and the Han people.

Therefore, Fan Wencheng, who has good knowledge, quickly gained a high degree of trust from Huang Taiji.

However, this does not mean that the Han people have a good status in the Great Qing Dynasty, in the Great Qing Dynasty, the status of the Han people is the lowest, not as good as the Mongols, although Huang Taiji has formulated a lot of policies, requiring preferential treatment of the Han people, but many princes, county kings Beile and Beizi, etc., still regard the Han people as inferior people, and do not look at them.

Huang Taiji had just ascended the throne as an emperor, and there were not so many etiquettes, and the Qing Dynasty had not completely absorbed the etiquette of the Han people, especially when it came to deliberations, it was relatively casual.

Azig's letter has already been read out by Fan Wencheng.

After Huang Taiji's consultation began, Dai Shan spoke first.

"The minister thinks that it is necessary to redeem the seventh brother......"

As soon as Dai Shan opened his mouth to speak, he was interrupted by Huang Taiji.

"Second brother, don't say it in Manchu."

Fan Wencheng lowered his head, he was the only Han in the hall, when Huang Taiji used to discuss military affairs with Dai Shan and others, most of the time he spoke Manchu, although he was by Huang Taiji's side for so many years, Fan Wencheng also learned Manchu, but he was not particularly proficient, and at the same time, Huang Taiji convened everyone to discuss matters, and everyone spoke Manchu, which was also the rejection of him as a Han person.

Dai Shan looked at Fan Wencheng and spoke again.

"The minister thinks that Abatai should be redeemed, and once Abatai is redeemed, the minister is willing to lead the army and conquer the Ming Dynasty again."

The Manchurian people spoke simply, without so much style, and the meaning was expressed in a few words.

Zilharang Dolgon, Hauge and others have expressed their positions, the meaning is the same as Daishan, especially Hauge, who swore that he would lead the army to attack the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

Huang Taiji's brows were furrowed all the time, but in fact, his plan was not like this at all.

This time to enter the customs and plunder, Huang Taiji thought of celebrating the establishment of the Great Qing State, and by the way, he also tested the strength of the Ming Dynasty, his real purpose was to conquer Korea, North Korea is a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, close to the Great Qing State, and the threat is great.

After everyone said that, Huang Taiji looked at Fan Wencheng.

Fan Wencheng finally spoke.

"Your Majesty, the minions think that the construction of the princes and county kings is correct, and they really want to redeem Lord Belle, as for whether to continue to conquer the Ming Dynasty, the minions think it needs to be discussed."

In front of the Manchus, the Han people are all slaves, and being able to call themselves slaves in front of the emperor and the prince and the prince is already preferential.

Huang Taiji's attitude towards Fan Wencheng was still good, and after Fan Wencheng finished speaking, he immediately spoke.

"Scholar Fan thinks it's time not to attack Daming, let's talk about the reason."

"The slave believes that the Qing Dynasty has conquered the Horqin tribe in the north, the Chahar tribe in the west, and the only thing left is North Korea in the east, North Korea is a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and it is a threat to the Qing Dynasty all the time, and the most important thing for the Qing Dynasty to do now is to conquer Korea, once North Korea is not a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, then the Qing Dynasty can concentrate on using troops in the area of Shanhaiguan, and conquering Shanhaiguan is the fundamental task of the Great Qing State. Then completely exterminated the Ming court. ”

Huang Taiji nodded, a smile on his face.

"Scholar Fan is right, I also have such thoughts, the seventh brother was captured by the Ming army, this is Azig's mistake, after bringing Azig back, I must reprimand, it is necessary to redeem the seventh brother, I will let Azig be responsible for this matter, no matter what conditions the Chongzhen Emperor of the Ming Dynasty proposes, I can agree."

After Huang Taiji finished speaking, Dai Shan spoke again.

"Your Majesty, the minister also has a Jianyì, Azig proposed in the letter, there are still more than 3,000 people in the Eight Banners who have been captured by the Ming army, these children of the Eight Banners also have to be redeemed, and the lives of the children of the Eight Banners are much more important than money."

"Well, what the second brother said is right, no matter what the Ming court asks, I think it can be agreed, I believe that this transaction, although I have taken out so much money in the Qing Dynasty, it is impossible for the Ming court to be peaceful."

After Huang Taiji made a decision, he looked at everyone and spoke worriedly.

"The temper of the twelfth brother is not very good, I am worried that he will negotiate with the Ming court, which will breed trouble, and if I don't get the life of the seventh brother in danger, I will need to send a Han to assist."

As soon as the Chinese of Huang Taiji fell, Fan Wencheng immediately spoke.

"The slave is willing to assist King Wuying and complete the negotiations with the Ming court."

Huang Taiji looked at Fan Wencheng, the look on his face was very embarrassed, he knew very well that sending ordinary Han people, Azig didn't care at all, and would never obey Jian, but Fan Wencheng was his most trusted Han person, if he was sent to negotiate, he would anger Azig, and he didn't know what Azig would do.

Huang Taiji is not stupid, although he values Fan Wencheng very much, these brothers and nephews of his will not particularly respect Fan Wenzhong.

Seeing that Huang Taiji didn't express his position immediately, Fan Wencheng spoke again.

"Your Majesty, the minions must assist King Wuying and bring back Lord Belle."

None of the others spoke, apparently acquiescing.

At this time, Huang Taiji was not easy to object, after all, Abatai was captured by the Ming army and had to be ransomed, and there were so many children of the Eight Banners.

"Okay, that's hard for Scholar Fan, after this is done, order Azig to return to Shenyang quickly, I still have something to talk to him about."

Such a heavy matter was decided by discussion in a short period of time, which is the style of Huang Taiji's work, so the decrees of the Great Qing Kingdom can be very smooth.

Watching everyone leave the Great Palace, Huang Taiji didn't have a smile on his face, these brothers and nephews of him, all of them are very arrogant, scheming on behalf of the good elders, Dolgon Duoduo and Azig are brothers, the three of them are a little arrogant, if the two of them are up, the power is not ordinary, what Huang Taiji can rely on is still his son Hauge and Zilharang.

Fortunately, after so many years of hard work, Huang Taiji's power has been extraordinary, among the eight banners, he is in charge of the positive yellow flag and the inlaid yellow flag, Haoge is in charge of the positive blue flag, these three flags are directly controlled by their father and son, and they are also the most powerful in combat, the loyal Zilharang is in charge of the inlaid blue flag, as for Dolgon Duoduo and Azig, respectively, they are in charge of the white flag and the red flag, even if they are united, the strength is not enough to compete with the Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji knows very well that the Great Qing Dynasty is respected by strength, and after so many years of struggle, his strength is far from what it used to be, and his authority is fully established, so that he can control these powerful brothers and nephews. (To be continued)
