(If you want to hear more of your voices and receive more of your opinions, search for the WeChat public account "qdread" now and pay attention to "My Ming Dynasty Career" for more support!) A private house not far from the barracks in Jinzhou City
It was already dark, and Bai Kai, who was wearing a short coat, yawned in his mouth, held a tea jar in his left hand, and a toothbrush with toothpaste in his right hand, and slowly walked out of the house, apparently planning to wash.
"Master...... Your towel. A woman's voice came from behind him, and then a figure came up from behind and hung a towel around his neck.
"Oh, I almost forgot!"
Bai Kai nodded, walked to a big stone and squatted down and began to brush his teeth slowly, after brushing his teeth, he felt the faint mint smell in his mouth, and felt a burst of freshness in his mouth, Bai Kai nodded with satisfaction, "Hmm...... This toothpaste is good, and I can't complain that it costs ten cents per stick outside, and this smell alone is worth the price. ”
Spit out the last mouthful of water in his mouth, picked up a towel and wiped his mouth indiscriminately, got off the stone and walked to the well to scoop up a scoop of well water, and then washed his face, a cool feeling flowed from his head to his feet, and the whole person felt a lot refreshed.
Bai Kai walked back to the barracks, and saw a slender figure standing in front of the bed silently folding the quilt, he sat on the chair next to him and said, "Su Wan Guerjia, I heard that you still have a few relatives north of Shengjing, is that so?" ”
The woman who was folding the quilt suddenly stiffened, turned around and looked at Bai Kai and said in a trembling voice: "Master...... Are you going to Grass Valley again? ”
Bai Kai didn't speak, just sat silently in the chair and looked at her, but the meaning was acquiescing.
Seeing Bai Kai's acquiescence, the woman knelt on the ground with a puff and kowtowed to Bai Kai and begged, "Master...... Please do well, give the slave and maid a way to live, and the slave and maid will repay your kindness by being a cow and a horse. ”
Although the woman kneeling on the ground had a somewhat dark complexion, she had a very good appearance, and she could be regarded as a beautiful woman. This person is the Manchu woman who was captured by Bai Kai when he was fighting grass valley near Shengjing half a year ago, this person's name is Suwan Guerjia, half a year ago he went to Mantun Village to visit relatives but was arrested by Bai Kai and others after slaughtering the village after not accepting it at night. After returning to Jinzhou, the woman was also given to Bai Kai, and in the end he couldn't help but include the woman in the room, but he was not ashamed, because this was also allowed by the army, and the sergeants had the right to dispose of the non-Han women who were robbed by the grass valley, or sell or stay. And Bai Kai left her by his side and quickly rolled the sheets with her.
Originally, Bai Kai thought that after he snatched her, this woman would be tired of life, or she would find herself desperate. I never thought that she would soon admit her fate and follow herself, which once made Bai Kai a little puzzled, and later Bai Kai learned that the Manchus were different from the Han people, and the women of the Han nationality paid attention to the beginning and the end, marrying and obeying the husband and the son, while the Manchus paid attention to the weak to obey the strong.
In the past, when the Manchus were not yet unified, the Manchus were also fighting against each other, and the losing side, whether it was property or children, belonged to the winning side, which was also the norm that the nomads followed for generations. For example, when the Mongols' most admired ancestor Temujin had not yet unified Mongolia, his wife was once taken captive by the Mier beggars, and when Temujin snatched his wife back more than a year later, he found that his wife had a big belly. It goes without saying who this kid is. But Temujin was not too angry, but generously let Polti give birth to the child, which shows that the nomads at this time did not attach much importance to this kind of thing.
Looking at the woman kneeling on the ground, Bai Kai asked with some puzzlement, "Su Wan Guerjia." Why are you here again, I didn't say I was going to your house to hunt grass valley, why are you so panicked? ”
Only then did the girl stop her sadness and say, "What? Aren't you going to Shengjing to fight grass valley? ”
Bai Kai shook his head: "Of course not...... But I'm going out on a mission tomorrow, and I'm probably going to have to pass through your house. If you sue me about your family, I may be able to take care of your family if there is something wrong. ”
Hearing this, Su Wanguer's eyes regained their brightness, and she hesitated for a moment before saying, "Master...... The slave's home was one hundred and twenty miles east of Shengdong in a place called Wozigou. The slave maid still has parents and two younger siblings at home, if the master has leisure to pass by the nest, he may wish to tell the slave's father and mother, and say that the slave and maid are doing well now, please don't worry. ”
"Oh, that's right. Yes...... I'll take a walk when I'm at my leisure, but when I go there, your dad won't play with me, will he? Bai said jokingly.
"How can I be?" Su Wan Guerjia smiled bitterly: "Now the power of our Manchurians has long been much worse than before, and the days are almost unbearable, how dare you be the enemy of the Ming Dynasty again." If the master can give something to the slave and maid's family for the sake of the slave and maid's service these days, they will not have time to be grateful. ”
Hearing this, Bai Kai was silent for a while before nodding, and under the service of the girl, he put on his military uniform, stab-proof suit and helmet, and then picked up weapons such as firecrackers and rode towards the barracks......
When Bai Kai rode a horse to the camp, he saw that there was a figure rarely seen in the camp, this person was the head of all the cavalry in Jinzhou, and also their direct superior who did not close the camp at night, the guerrilla general Wu Chengfeng, seeing Wu Chengfeng appear here in person, Bai Kai's heart immediately chuckled, and he immediately realized that there was a big battle to be fought.
Sure enough, when Bai Kai arrived, he saw that almost all the officers above the rank of senior in the night camp had come, and the dense number of officers had crowded the not small house.
After a while, after all the officers arrived, Wu Chengfeng spoke, "Everyone, our Xuanda army has been guarding Liaodong for more than a year, and you must have heard about the situation in Liaodong for more than a year, right?" Without waiting for the officers to speak, Wu Chengfeng said again: "Everyone has also seen that the Tartars are now rabbit tails that can't grow, and it's time to clean them up!" ”
Hearing this, everyone's eyes showed a look of surprise, and Wu Chengfeng exclaimed in surprise: "My lord, is it possible that we are going to recover Shengjing?" ”
A trace of joy flashed in Wu Chengfeng's eyes, and he scolded Bai Kai with a smile: "You kid, you have been a soldier for so many years, why don't you even understand the rules, can you ask about this kind of big thing?" The secrecy regulations have been learned in the dog's belly? That's me. If you let General Yue be here to see how he cleans you up! ”
Bai Kai touched the back of his head embarrassedly and smiled embarrassedly, it is also interesting to say, Wu Chengfeng, who seems to have a straight temper in the Xuan army, treats his subordinates more benevolently, but it is Shun Bao, who is a scholar and seems to be easy to talk, is quite strict when it comes to military discipline, which is also a big strange thing in the Xuan army.
After the training, Wu Chengfeng continued: "It's okay for you to know some things, but you must remember to keep them secret. Starting from Ming'er, all the people and horses will be scattered to me at night, and you will be active around Shengjing in units or units, with only one purpose. That is to harass the Tartars as much as possible, eat them when they encounter a lone horse, and avoid them when they encounter a large group of people, in short, there is only one purpose, to disturb their chickens and dogs, and even sleep with one eye open. Do you understand everything? ”
"Yes!"
The officers agreed in unison, and the sound almost lifted the roof......
"Pimple ......"
The sound of horses' hooves echoed across the road, and a cavalryman in leather armor galloped forward, with the towering Shengjing city walls in front of him. When the cavalry galloped to the city gate, the defenders who had wanted to stop him hurriedly got out of the way after seeing the three red flags planted at his collar. This kind of cavalry with three small red flags on their collars must have an urgent task to report, not to mention a few of their small soldiers in this case, even if Prince Baylor dared to stop and was killed by being knocked out.
When the cavalryman galloped to the palace, he tumbled and jumped off his horse, and then took out a wooden box from his body and handed it to the guards guarding the door. After taking the box, the guard hurried towards the palace, shouting loudly as he ran: "Eight hundred miles urgent...... Hurry up and get out of the way of the eight hundred miles to expedite ......"
"Your Majesty...... Eight hundred miles of expedited delivery from outside! ”
The box was quickly delivered to Dolgon, who was having lunch with several concubines. Dorgon took the wooden box, carefully examined the lacquer and seals of the wooden box, and then opened it, and soon a letter appeared before his eyes. Dolgon's face began to change as he opened the fold and looked at it. Then he said in a stern tone: "Set up the imperial study, and announce that the banner masters and ministers will enter the palace immediately!" ”
"Huh!"
Half an hour later, Dolgon's imperial study was filled with dozens of ministers who had arrived in a hurry. Looking at the royal palace Baylor and the ministers who packed the imperial study. Dolgon's face sank like water and said to everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, I just got the news that the Ming army stationed in Jinzhou is moving frequently today, and just yesterday they sent a large number of warriors who infiltrated around my Shengjing at night, attacked and killed our Qing people and even left alone, I think these are all signs that the Ming army is going to attack Shengjing, I don't know how you think you should deal with it?" ”
When everyone heard this, their faces became ugly, since the death of Huang Taiji, their full days were Wang Xiaoer's New Year, and the activities that had to enter the customs and loot every year were also forced to stop, and the Mongolian ministries also began to have different intentions, and there were signs of instability on the Korean side, and everyone's life was tight. Although the days are sad, but everyone has endured it, who let Ming Guo have such a freak as Yueyang now, if you can't beat people, you have to pretend to be a grandson, but now it's okay, people won't even give you the opportunity to pretend to be a grandson, this is the rhythm of flipping the table.
Duoduo stood up and shouted: "Your Majesty, since those Ming dogs don't give us a way to live, then we will fight with them, how can we say that now we still have 100,000 elite soldiers, even if that Yue Yang is powerful, we will break his teeth, let him know that we are full of unyielding courage!" ”
Duoduo's voice was so loud that it shook the entire study with a hum. But there were not many people who were encouraged by him, and Haoge turned over a white cigarette and said: "Since Prince Heshuo Deyu said so impassionedly, why don't you command the army and fight the Ming army to the death?" We're here to cheer you up. ”
"Hauge, what are you talking about!" The grumpy Duoduo immediately attacked, glared at Hauge and said, "People are about to hit the door, can't they fight with him?" Are you still not a descendant of Nurhachi? Are you still worthy of the teachings of the first emperor? ”
"There is no reason for the descendants of Nurhachi to die in vain." Hauge said without showing weakness: "The matter is clear, the Ming army is now powerful, and hard fighting can only be an act of death, and I don't approve of a decisive battle with the Ming army." ”
Duoduo glared at Hauge with an unkind face and asked, "Then what do you say?" ”
"Move the capital!" Hauge did not hesitate to say a sentence that shocked everyone, "For today's plan, only by moving the capital back to Hetuara can we avoid the edge of the Ming army, and if we continue to stay in Shengjing, there is only a dead end." ”
"What...... Moving the capital? Most of the people were stunned by Hauge's words, none of them expected that Hauge, who was usually reckless and brainless, could say such a sign of weakness, and many people looked at him as if they had seen the sun come out of the west.
"You...... Do you know what you're talking about? Seeing Dolgon on the side, his body trembled with anger. Duoduo finally had a seizure, rushed to Hauge's front and grabbed his shirt and shouted: "You guy who insulted your ancestors, you actually said such greedy words and fear of death, believe it or not, I slaughtered you with a knife!" ”
"Whoa!"
Duoduo moved like this, and a group of people who supported Haoge, such as Aobai, Tan Tai, and Ta Zhan, who were sitting on the side, also stood up and glared at Duoduo angrily, only to see Aobai said gloomily: "Prince Heshuo Deyu, don't forget that this is the imperial study, not your prince's mansion, and Prince Su is not a servant of your family, so you can't help but drink here!" ”
Dolgon, who was sitting in the dragon chair, watched this scene and his teeth chattered, he had been on the throne for more than a year. Although the entire Sheng Kyoto has been polished by him, people like Aobai, Sony, and Turai are still supporting Haoge, which also makes Dolgon very jealous and dare not kill Haoge, after all, the current Manchu Qing Dynasty is already seriously injured, and if there is another internal fight, I am afraid that it will perish without the Ming Kingdom to attack.
Looking at Haug, who was standing fearlessly and staring directly at Dorg, Dorgon wanted to order the guards to drag him out and chop him into eighteen pieces, but he couldn't do so, and the feeling made him almost mad. In fact, Dolgon also understood Hauge's intention to move the capital. Today's Haoge is not the emperor of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and he is naturally unwilling to waste his small number of troops on the walls of Shengjing. The firearms of the Xuanda army are well known, and countless warriors of the Manchu have confirmed this with their blood and lives, and as long as the Manchus move their capital to Hetuala, then they will be safe for at least the next few years. Anyway, if you can live happily for a few years, you can live happily for a few years.
But Hauge can think like this, but Dolgon can't think like this, what is Hetuala? Yes, it is indeed the place where the Manchurians made their fortune and the first capital of the Manchurians, but it is only a small county town. The city is short and the terrain is narrow, and it cannot accommodate the entire Manchu hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, and if the capital is moved there, it will be a disaster for the Qing Dynasty. Doesn't Hauge know that? Of course, he knows this, but the so-called ass decides the head. Haoge now only has two flags in his hands, Zhengbai and inlaid white (formerly Zhenghuang and inlaid yellow), less than 30,000 horses are easy to settle down in Hetuala, even if they can't do it, they can go into the mountains to hunt, but Dolgon can't think so, Dolgon is responsible for the entire Manchu Qing Dynasty of seven or eight hundred thousand people, if the capital is moved back to Hetuala, the emperor is estimated to not be long in office, and a leader who can't lead the people to live is bound to be abandoned by the people.
"Bang ......"
A dull slap on the table sounded, and Dolgonsen's voice sounded in the imperial study: "Haoge, you are the eldest son of the first emperor, and you are also an example of important ministers, Shengjing is the capital city that Emperor Taizu laid down and appointed, Taizu once said when he was alive, Shengjing is a land full of people and dragons, and must not be abandoned without authorization, and all the descendants of Xinjue Luo must abide by it, have you forgotten?" ”
"This time and that time." Hao Ge rarely dropped his schoolbag and sneered: "How wise and powerful Emperor Taizu is, how can he be beaten by the Ming Kingdom so that he can't even defend the capital?" ”
"You ......"
Dolgon only felt that the bruises on his forehead were rising, and his whole head was a little swollen and painful, he couldn't help it anymore, and pointed at Haoge and said sharply: "Haoge, if it weren't for the sake of you being the eldest son of the first emperor, I wouldn't put up with you again and again, if you say the words of moving the capital again, I will kill you!" ”
As soon as Dolgon's murderous words came out, the temperature of the entire imperial study seemed to begin to cool, and Hauge also felt a burst of killing intent from Dolgon, Rao is self-proclaimed bravery, and a layer of white hair sweat also broke out behind his back at this time. Soltu, who was standing next to him at this time, also gently tugged at his sleeve.
Hauge took a deep breath and said: "The emperor and extinguish the wrath of the thunder, the minister is just talking about the matter, not dissatisfied with the emperor, after all, you are the king of a country, if you refuse to move the capital, the minister will naturally obey your orders." ”
Seeing that Hauge finally relented, Dolgon slowly calmed down the anger in his heart, stared at Hauge with sharp eyes and said lightly: "I hope you can do what you say, otherwise if you dare to move the capital again at the current moment of this great enemy, I will not spare it!" ”
At this time, Fan Wencheng, who had been watching coldly from behind, also stepped forward and said: "What the emperor said is very true, Shengjing is the foundation of my Qing Dynasty, if Shengjing is there, I will be in the Qing Dynasty, and if Shengjing is not in my Qing Dynasty, it will be dangerous." The minister thought that although the Ming army was menacing, but it was not without chance of winning for our side to defend the city, and the Shengjing wall was high and the city was deep, and there were hundreds of thousands of people in the city, even if the Ming army tens of thousands of soldiers and horses came to attack, as long as my Qing army and people were single-minded, Shengjing would be solid, and on the other hand, if our army could defeat the Ming army under Shengjing, then I could take advantage of the victory to pursue, and it was not impossible to take Jinzhou at that time, so that my Qing Dynasty could turn the crisis into safety! ”
"Good...... Fan Aiqing is right! ”
Listening to Fan Wencheng's words, Dolgon immediately cheered up like a shot in the arm, and said loudly: "In the future, anyone who dares to move the capital will not be spared!" ”
"Huh!"
As Dorgon's words fell, all the ministers rose up in unison......
