Chapter 666: The Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty

Many things that happened in the Ming court and Nanzhili were continuously reported to Fan Wencheng by Duan Zongkui, which made Fan Wencheng ecstatic, and the Ming court finally had infighting, thinking that the contradiction between Emperor Chongzhen and Zheng Xunrui would not take long to break out, Fan Wencheng was happy for his own arrangement, and trusted Duan Zongkui more, at this time, his thoughts changed subtly, and he no longer regarded Duan Zongkui as a pawn that could be sold.

Duan Zongkui was able to have a relationship with Zhou Kui and Tian Hongyu within a year, and became a person that the two of them particularly trusted, which really shows that his ability is very good, combined with Duan Zongkui's ability to do business in Liaodong and come and go freely, Fan Wencheng believes in Duan Zongkui's ability even more, such a person must be reused to spy on more information about Daming.

Fan Wencheng had already asked Duan Zongkui to shift his focus, on the one hand, to focus on how Emperor Chongzhen dealt with Zheng Xunrui, and on the other hand, to pay attention to the many decisions made by the Ming court, and he believed that Duan Zongkui would be able to learn from Zhou Kui and Tian Hongyu.

Fan Wencheng carefully sorted out all the information reported by Duan Zongkui and sent them to Huang Taiji one by one.

Unlike Fan Wencheng's thoughts, although Huang Taiji was happy about the infighting in the Ming court, it was far from being at ease, and the Huang Taiji, who grew up in blood and fire, valued strength, Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, if he had no strength in his hands, it was nothing, and Emperor Han Xian at the end of the Han Dynasty was the best proof.

Zheng Xunrui has Zheng Jiajun in his hands, and the strong Zheng Jiajun is Zheng Xunrui's biggest reliance, in this case, even if the Ming Dynasty is a loud infighting, it is only some scholars and ministers who have fallen, which will not have much impact on Zheng Jiajun.

From Zheng Xunrui's body. Huang Taiji also thought of the reality of the Great Qing Kingdom.

The Manchu Eight Banners are not under the complete control of Huang Taiji.

There is no need to worry about the yellow flag and the yellow flag, Huang Taiji is the owner of the flag, but there are also hidden worries, that is, the yellow flag and the yellow flag as the upper three flags, because of the different status in the eight banners, rarely participate in the battle. The combat effectiveness is worth worrying, Huang Taiji once personally led a large army to conquer Korea, and the battle of the eight flags was reflected, and the combat effectiveness of the blue flag and the white flag was the strongest.

The blue flag is also the upper three flags, and the flag owner Haoge is the son of Huang Taiji, so there is no need to worry too much.

The problem is the white flag, the white flag, the red flag and the red flag.

Dolgon, the owner of the Zhengbai Banner, has become more and more prestigious in the Qing Dynasty, and has faintly become the first person under Huang Taiji, and the combat effectiveness of the Zhengbai Banner has also been recognized by everyone. Although the white flag has suffered a devastating blow from the Zheng family's army, it has slowly recuperated in recent years, and it has begun to grow, as for the daishan of the red flag, one of the four major Baylors, it is the object of Huang Taiji's key monitoring, Yue Tuo and Azig of the red flag, who do the two of them prefer in their hearts. That's something you can't say.

The blue flag of Jilharang can rest assured that Jilharang does things steadily. has his own opinions, and is loyal to Huang Taiji.

As the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Huang Taiji does not have an absolute control advantage over the Manchurian Eight Banners, what he can control is the positive yellow flag, the inlaid yellow flag, the positive blue flag and the inlaid blue flag, and it is difficult to control the positive white flag, the inlaid white flag and the inlaid red flag, and the wavering one has the positive red flag.

Successive failures of several expeditions. In other words, it ended in nothing, and it also had an impact on Huang Taiji's reputation, especially since the establishment of the Great Qing Dynasty as the emperor, there were almost no battles worth showing off, so in this case. It is also reasonable for the Manchurian nobility to have criticism and fluctuations.

The Qing Dynasty uses force to measure the strength of individuals, which began in the era of Nurhachi, when Nurhachi raised troops with thirteen pairs of armor, experienced countless battles, and gradually expanded the territory occupied by the Houjin, and its own strength became stronger and stronger.

Huang Taiji could not change the understanding of the Manchu nobles, if he did not directly control the Zhenghuang Banner and the Yellow Banner, he had the strongest strength, and he would not have successfully become the Great Khan of the Later Jin, let alone ascend to the throne of the emperor of the Great Qing Dynasty.

Fan Wencheng's approach can't be said to be wrong, but that's more than the Han people's way of dealing with things, think about the Ming Dynasty has been standing for more than 300 years, the emperor has absolute authority, so of course he can control the government, but the Qing Dynasty's please is different, it has only been established for a few years, Huang Taiji has not yet absolute authority, or compared with the Chongzhen Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he lacks the confidence to take it for granted.

Therefore, Huang Taiji's focus was not on the internal strife in the Ming court, he thought of enhancing his own strength, and he thought of enhancing the strength of the Qing Dynasty.

Shenyang Imperial Palace, Dazheng Palace.

Huang Taiji sat at the top, and Zilharang sat at the bottom.

Such a scene is the prelude to discussing confidential matters, Huang Taiji's most trusted is Jierharang, even more than his son Haoge, Haoge has a straightforward temper, but also irritable, it is difficult to hold his mouth, some words may not help but spread out, Jierharang is calm and calm, and will not leak any secrets.

"Zierharang, I want to establish the Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty."

Huang Taiji went straight to the point and discussed big things with Zilharang, he didn't need to hide it.

Of course, Zilharang knew Huang Taiji's current situation, Dolgon, Duoduo, Azig and others were dissatisfied, although all three of them were defeated by the Zheng family's army, and one of them was even captured by the Zheng family's army, but they finally blamed all this on Huang Taiji's planning and command, and even faintly revealed that Huang Taiji established the Great Qing Kingdom and ascended the throne to become the emperor, which was the source of all these failures.

Dolgon, Dordor, and Azig are brothers, and when something big happens, the three of them must be of the same mind.

Dai Shan's attitude is vague, despite obeying the authority of Huang Taiji.

The five princes of the Great Qing Kingdom, Prince Dai Shan, Prince Rui Dolgon, Prince Su Haoge, Prince Zheng Jierharang, and Prince Yu Duoduo, three of them were not particularly loyal to Huang Taiji, and such a situation must be dangerous.

Dolgon controls the white flag, Duoduo controls the white flag, Azig basically controls the red flag, and three of the eight flags are difficult to completely control.

The establishment of the Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, under the complete control of Huang Taiji, the strength of Huang Taiji will surely increase greatly.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is completely necessary to establish the Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, and the minister has a suggestion."

"Well, tell me your thoughts and suggestions."

"The Eight Banners of Mongolia are mainly composed of the Horqin tribe, and the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty are mainly composed of the Yellow Flag and the Han soldiers who are inlaid with the Red Flag."

In the words of Zilharang, his loyalty is revealed.

Mongolian Horqin tribe and Huang Taiji have a marriage relationship, when Huang Taiji founded the Qing Dynasty, ascended the throne of the emperor, the Horqin tribe is strongly supported, and united with other tribes in the grassland, unanimously supported, the establishment of the Mongolian Eight Banners to the Horqin tribe as the mainstay, which can ensure that the Huang Taiji really control the Mongolian Eight Banners.

As for the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, the owners of the flags are mainly produced from the Yellow Flag and the Yellow Flag in the Eight Banners, which indicates that Huang Taiji can completely control the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty.

In this way, the balance of force of the Qing Kingdom will undergo a huge change, Huang Taiji controls the four banners of the Eight Banners of Manchuria, controls the Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, and its position will not be shaken, even if some Manchu nobles are dissatisfied, there is no way.

Huang Taiji shook his head slightly.

"Ji'er Harang, I understand what you mean, but doing so, it is very likely to lead to the split of the Manchurians, I can't allow such a situation to happen, the Mengba Banner is dominated by the Horqin tribe, this point must not be raised by everyone, after all, the combat effectiveness of the Horqin tribe is in front of you, but the Han Eight Banners all transfer the soldiers with the yellow flag and the red flag as the banner master, I am afraid it will cause a lot of controversy, I must maintain the balance."

Zilharang's eyes were very determined.

"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't look at it this way, the minister's meaning, it doesn't mean that all the banner owners of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty are from the Yellow Flag and the Yellow Banner, of course, they can be drawn from the other flags, and the minister feels that as the flag owner of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, it doesn't have to be a Han person, and the Manchurian people can also serve as a person, so that the emperor can choose calmly."

Huang Taiji let out a long sigh.

"Ji'er Harang, what do you mean, I understand, the establishment of the Mengba Banner and the Han Eight Banner is the most important matter for my Great Qing Kingdom, the Han army also suffered a fiasco, Gongshun Wang Kong Youde and Huaishun Wang Shang Kexi all died, only Zhishun Wang Shang Kexi remained, the army under their command, the combat effectiveness is not very strong, but there is still an advantage in numbers, I see that these Han soldiers are all incorporated into the Han Eight Banners, in addition, the number of Han Eight Banners can also be released, there is no need for strict restrictions."

"The Manchus of my Great Qing Kingdom, and the Han and Mongols, have always been unable to integrate well, this is what I am most worried about, the establishment of the Mongolian Eight Banners and the Han Eight Banners can also improve the status of the Mongols and Han people, so that they can really serve my Great Qing Kingdom to the death."

"The Qing Dynasty is at a critical moment, the main threat comes from the Ming court, but the movements of the Mongolian tribes can not be underestimated, the Ordos tribe, the Tumut tribe, etc., and the Ming Dynasty has been in the market for many years, they will not surrender to the Qing Dynasty, I set up the Mongolian Eight Banners, just to let them see if they can take the initiative to submit to the Qing Dynasty."

"What Fan Wencheng did, the effect is still there, there is civil strife in the Ming Dynasty, which is a very good thing for our Qing Dynasty, but I can't rely on the internal strife of the Ming Dynasty to decide everything, and enhancing my own strength and making the Qing Kingdom more stable and powerful is the fundamental way."
