325 North Wind Sweeps the White Grass (3)

In December of the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, it was like testing the strategic vision of the three rulers, and the whole world suddenly shook.

Dolgon failed to brave the turmoil to marry Fulin's mother, so he could only temporarily retire on the grounds of physical discomfort, while not forgetting to hold on to the flag in his hand.

He knew very well that the future of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was to break the flag power with imperial power, but at this moment he was in a difficult situation at home and abroad and was forced to delegate power, so it was impossible to relax the flag power in his hand.

After taking power in the name of the regent, Zilharang reused the ministers of the two yellow flags, forming a huge shili in the court. He is Nurhachi's nephew, and whoever becomes the emperor can't take his turn, so the two yellow flags also trust him a lot. However, Zilharan knew very well that if he could not open up the situation and stabilize this fragile alliance before the end of the year, the result would be to give Dolgon the blame, and Zuihou would still have to hand over the power he had acquired.

In a desperate mentality, in the two days of Zuihou in November, Jierharang successively issued an edict in the name of Shunzhi to transfer Wu Sangui's Guangning army to cross the river into Qin and be the vanguard of the army. At the same time, those who were transferred to Shaanxi were Gongshun Wang Kong Youde, Zhishun Wang Shang Kexi, and Huaishun Wang Geng Zhongming.

The Manchurian lord who pressed the battle was Hauge, the prince of Su, who had just been restored, and also sent Luo Luohun, the king of Yanxi County, Bellenikan, and Yue Le, the prince of Zhenguo.

Luo Luohun, the king of the county, is the eldest grandson of Prince Dai Shan, the eldest son of Yue Tuo, the king of Keqin County, and the leader of the fourth generation of Aixin Jueluo.

Berenican can be known from the name to look like a Han Chinese. His father is Chu Ying, the eldest son of Nurhachi, who has been fighting against Duoduo and Azig before, and this time Duoduo and Azig will definitely not fight for the two yellow banners, so he was also transferred to Hauge.

Yue Le, the prince of Zhenguo, is the fourth son of Nurhachi's seventh son, Abatai, who is only nineteen years old this year, and is still the first time to go on an expedition as a general.

After gathering the six princes of the Manchu and Han dynasties. The Qing court mobilized more than 130,000 people on the Western Road, of which 30,000 were Manchurian Zhenyi.

At the same time, Jierharang also sent an extremely luxurious lineup on the South Road to attack Zhending and Cangzhou.

The coach of the south road is the newly promoted king of Dororao Yujun, Abatai. He was the seventh son of Nurhachi, and he fought with Nurhachi during the Mandate of Heaven, and his achievements were prominent. It's just because his mother was born in Ilgenjue. The status is too low, so after Huangtai Ji Dengji, he was always squeezed out by other brothers, and even this county king was obtained after entering the customs.

This time, Zilharang asked him to go out of the mountain, precisely because he knew that the Ming army in the south was very difficult to fight, and it may not be useful to rely on a large number of people, and there must be people who can recruit good fighters to fight.

Abatai was ordered to take his two sons, Bei Zibo and Tuo and Bel Bolo, and chose Fei Yingdong's sixth son, Suo Hai, his seventh son, Tulai, and Eyidu's last son, Kupilon. Accompany the army on the march.

Abatai is now fifty-five years old, and he brings his children and nephews, which can be described as old, middle-aged and young. In the future, the obvious Ao Bai was also in the sequence of the Southern Route Army at this time, and it was Baya Lama Zhangjing.

Under the activities of Fan Wencheng, Ning Wan and others, Sonny made a statement and took Hong Chengchou as the "Governor of Jiangnan Province and the Military Affairs University Scholar", and went south with Abatai. And because Hong Chengchou's flag is in the Han Army with a yellow flag. The Qing court took the two yellow banners of the Han army as its command, and used Changping to reduce troops to train the governor's standard battalion. There were 50,000 of them.

In this way, the South Route Army has 100,000 troops, including 50,000 Zhenyi, 50,000 Han troops and green battalions, which are also vast and majestic.

Such a big news can't be hidden from others. The Qing court also did not want to hide it from others. They wished that the whole world would know that Manchuria was strong, so that the enemy would be frightened and surrender without a fight.

Song Hongye is already the head of the Prudential Criminal Department of the Internal Affairs Bureau, and he is also the errand of the military department. The former was responsible for catching the spies of the Ming Dynasty, and the latter was responsible for preparing the grain and grass of the Southern Route Army. With such an identity, even if you don't want to know the reality of the Manchu Dynasty, it is not easy. He soon spread the news to Jinan. Incidentally, Sony's newly compiled "Manchurian Eight Banners General Examination" is also presented.

Therefore, when the Qing army had not yet completed the assembly, Zhu Cihong had clearly understood the complex relationship between the three generations of the ancestors of each Manchurian general, and at the same time, he also clearly found that the western and southern armies did not have a single general with two white flags.

Calculated from the number of Manchurian Zhenyi, there should be about 30,000 garrisons in Beijing. It's exactly about the number of soldiers under two white flags.

The internal turmoil in the Qing court was indeed a great thing that made Zhu Cihong overjoyed. If they work together, I am afraid that the effectiveness of their winter offensive will also be affected.

There is also an even greater good thing.

Those Nanchen, who had lived in Jinan for a long time, heard that the "300,000 army" of the Dongyu was going south, and no one believed that the Ming army on the North China Plain could resist it. Rather than staying in Jinan and suffering from the military disaster, it is better to retreat to the south of the Yangtze River first, and use the Yangtze River moat to resist. As a result, those who had obtained official positions thanked them one after another, and went south to take office; If you don't get an official position, some people say that the Ming Dynasty does not value talents, so you can only retreat to the mountains and forests; Some people also say that their parents are still there, and they can only go back if they want to be filial piety.

All of a sudden, the official road southbound from Jinan was crowded with cars and horses, and it was really "red robes walking everywhere, and there were as many square scarves as dogs".

"Alas, what a pity, it would be nice if I could be caught and sent to eradicate illiteracy!"

Three young scholars sat in the three-mile pavilion outside the city, watching a convoy of chariots and horses leave. One of the young men who was not good-looking said with regret.

Another handsome and hearty young gentleman clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Brother Long is so greedy! I heard that you will take away all the talents of Pingdu, and you will not leave some people to do things for the next appointment? ”

"Haha, Brother Chao's words are quite sour." Daxiao, who is not good-looking, said: "I went to Pingdu to take office that day, and there were only six accounts under my command. Now I have taken about twenty of them, but I have left a dozen or so. The next governor can only thank me, what reason is there to blame me? ”

"Brother Meicun, you see how this Liao digging can be eloquent." Hou Fangyu didn't say that he couldn't say that Liao Xing and Liao Longzhi, but he knew that this person was not even a student, for fear that he would be embarrassed by messing around at that time.

Wu Weiye, who was sitting on the side and just drinking tea, naturally would not participate in it. Since he was beaten by the crown prince that day, he has been much calmer, and he has served as a general secretary for most of the year, and finally passed the assessment conscientiously.

"Brother Chaozong," Liao Xing did not let Hou Fangyu go, "I heard that Brother Tai is from the Defu Mansion, and this time he has really returned to his hometown." ”

The ancestors of the Hou family were originally from Kaifeng, and they returned to Shangqiu in Germany during the Hongwu period, and later became Shangqiu people. According to the Ming system, you can't be an official from your hometown, and when Hou Fangyu got the official department, it was because they made a mistake, and after asking, he learned that this place has not yet been settled, and it is more convenient to use locals to administer the people.

Hou Fangyu also knew that he still had some connections in Shangqiu, so he was naturally happily preparing to take up his post. Because he was going to serve in the B-level region, the Ministry of Officials authorized the officials of various prefectures and counties to recommend subordinate officials, and as soon as they were transferred, Hou Fangyu also focused on digging more than a dozen people.

He thought that he had brought too much, but he didn't know that Liao Xing actually brought more than 20 of them, all of which were first-class diplomas or above, and each of them had accounting certificates, how could he not make people blush.

"It's better to sit in Kaifeng Mansion with Brother Tai." Hou Fangyu pushed back.

"Kaifeng Mansion is not easy to sit." Liao Xing put on a bitter face and said: "In the first year of Hongwu, Kaifeng was built as Beijing, although it was abolished in the eleventh year, there are still four prefectures and thirty counties. Alas, I only brought more than 20 people, how can I manage it. ”

"Aren't the governors and county orders all selected by the officials, and they don't move your people." Hou Fangyu said.

"It's better to use your own people to save effort." Liao Xing shook his head: "This time, I have to dig the ground myself." ”

Hou Fangyu smiled, seeing that Wu Weiye had not spoken, he asked curiously: "Brother Meicun, how many people have you transferred out this time?" ”

Wu Weiye shook his head and raised three fingers: "Three." ”

"Why are there only three?" Liao Xing and Hou Fangyu said in unison.

"Alas, everywhere in Laizhou, there are great bodhisattvas, if you want people here, how can I reason with a small prefect?" Wu Weiye sighed.

"Hehe, in fact, it's not that there are no people." Liao Xing lowered his voice: "Didn't you hear what I did in Pingdu?" (To be continued......)
