The growth of a person, or the growth of Kangxi into an emperor who lives and dies, always needs a process. Although he was touched, it did not mean that he was compassionate, but that he was thinking about how to keep his power and sit firmly on his dragon chair.

From the outside, the Ming army is counteroffensive, the people in various places are turbulent, and the revenge psychology of the Han people has been instigated.

Inside, Kangxi is only eleven or twelve years old, and the power is in the hands of the four auxiliary governments. Especially Aobai, who has to be attached to Billon, is already above the old and frail Sony, not to mention the lonely Suke Saha.

If the shape is stable and stable, it is nothing for Kangxi to be a child emperor in the palace, anyway, this is the world where he loves Xinjue Luo, and when he is old enough, he will be able to regain power. But this day is stormy, and the situation is getting worse, so Xiao Kangxi can't help but complain and be depressed.

Similar to all emperors, although Kangxi is small, he is also educated by the emperor, has his own ambitions, and also has the common characteristics of emperors, that is, the incompetence of the ministers, only he is the most powerful.

"Your Majesty, it's cold, let's go into the palace and rest!" Su Malagu came over and whispered and persuaded her.

Although she was born in a poor Mongolian family, Su Malagu was the maid of Xiaozhuang, who married into the Manchu court with Xiaozhuang, and was proficient in Mongolian and Manchurian characters, so she was trusted by Xiaozhuang and was regarded as Kangxi's enlightenment teacher. According to such an identity, when others dare not step forward to anger, she is often the one who solves Xiao Kangxi's feelings.

Kangxi sighed softly, accompanied by Aunt Su Mala, returned to the hall, and sat on the throne, still frowning.

"The emperor doesn't have to worry, the turmoil is only temporary. The world of the Qing Dynasty is still stable. Su Malagu persuaded against her will: "The Eight Banners are invincible in cavalry shooting, the north is the place to show, the army of the Puppet Ming lacks cavalry, how can it be the enemy of the Eight Banners?" ”

Kangxi waved his hand and waved it back left and right, before he smiled bitterly: "Sister Man doesn't need to comfort me." The current shape is different from the puppet king Dingguo and other disasters in Hunan and Guangdong, and it is also different from Zheng Wei's siege of Nanjing. Shandong has been close to Kifu, and the rebellion of the people's hearts has spread all over the north, and even the Mongolian tribes want to wait and see and retreat. As for the invincibility of cavalry and archery, well, the firearms of the puppet Ming army are sharp, and it is difficult to resist. ”

"The chaos in people's hearts may not be out of control, firearms are sharp, and our army can also be equipped with more equipment." Su Malagu said: "False Ming is the most likely to cause chaos from within. Do you know that there will be no repeat of the infighting between the three kings? ”

"Puppet Emperor Zhaowu is not comparable to Hongguang and Yongli!" Kangxi sighed: "Its position is right, who can compete with it?" As for cleaning up people's hearts, I'm afraid it's too late. Enclosure, surrender, escape, slaughter, etc., the Han people have a deep hatred, which is all caused by short-sightedness. Especially Aobai, monopolizing power, discriminating against Han officials, and setting off a dispute over land exchange. He also ignored the sufferings of the people and imposed additional taxes. It can be described as a national thief! ”

Su Malagu was shocked, although he worshiped the autocratic power, he had many henchmen, and this was definitely not the time to set off civil strife.

"Your Majesty, Ao Bai entered the customs from the dragon, and his merits are outstanding. Even if there is a mistake, it is not appropriate to call it a thief. Su Malagu looked around vigilantly, and her voice lowered.

"Since ancient times, which powerful minister has no merit? The minister of the troubled country, what is not the thief of the country? The remnants are self-interested. What if it's not a thief! Kangxi was a little excited, and his voice was even higher than just now, "There are groups of beggars in Beijing, but outside the city, thousands of miles of fertile fields have become the hometown of foxes and rabbits!" has ruined his family and separated his wife, do you still expect the Han people to support him? Now the puppet emperor Zhaowu is seizing the pain of the failure of the imperial court to cut down the tart, so that the rebellion has swarmed, and it is difficult to curb its momentum. ”

Su Malagu opened her mouth and didn't say anything, but she didn't think so. From the entry of the Manchu Qing Dynasty to the escape of the Yongli monarchs and ministers from Burma, it is not the momentum of unifying the world. It's just that the puppet emperor Zhaowu was fortunate to turn the clouds and rain and turn the shape around, so that the Han people had hope and a heart of resistance, so they counted all this maladministration on Aobai's head, which is really unfair.

"If it were my own government, I would never have done this." Sure enough, although Kangxi is small, he is very narcissistic and strict.

"That's nature." Aunt Su Mala smiled and said, "The emperor is the true son of the dragon, and only you can control it." ”

Kangxi smiled slightly, got up solemnly, and said: "The Eight Banners of the Forbidden Brigade can't be moved lightly, because I am in Beijing, if I drive the expedition in person, what do you think, Sister Man?" ”

"The emperor must not." Su Malagu was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "The capital is important, long live must not stay away." The Lord is light, in case of a slight defeat, but—"

"I would rather die in battle for the emperor, not for the cowardly lord!" Kangxi Huoran stood up, interrupted Aunt Su Mala unhappily, and walked out, "I went to ask the Empress Dowager, and she will definitely agree." ”

……………

No matter how Kang Xiaosan thinks that his subordinates are incompetent, how he thinks that he is the true son of heaven, and how he thinks that he is wise and powerful, the changes in the battle situation are constantly tilting towards the Ming army.

Although the Poshuo army led by Ma Zide, the prince of Yiguo, failed to conquer Yizhou (Linyi) in one fell swoop, it posed a flank threat to the Jianghuai Qing army that retreated across the Yellow River, and formed a three-sided attack with the Shuo army that occupied Jinan, and the Zhengshuo and Dangshuo armies who wanted to cross the Yellow River north.

Cross the river, cross the river, cross the river! The true declaration of the Northern Expedition, the historical symbol of the recovery of the Central Plains. Since the Southern Song Dynasty, the Yellow River has become a watershed between progress and peace, which has been remembered by countless heroes.

Although the Ming army landed in Shandong and had in fact crossed the Yellow River, in the eyes of most people, it was still regarded as a diversionary military operation. Although it was not very fair, it did not affect the actual course of the Northern Expedition.

The Ming army advanced north along the canal with heavy troops and some water divisions, although it has not experienced any major battles, but it is indeed quite remarkable. Without the canal, it does not mean that the canal is abandoned, and water transportation has always been the transportation channel and means that the Ming army relied on as much as possible.

From the canal to the Yellow River, the naval division could not only assist the army in crossing the river, but also transport supplies and soldiers; Continue north along the canal to enter the Central Plains; To the west, you can enter Henan and Shaanxi. It can give full play to the strength of the Ming army's naval division and respond to several battlefields.

At the same time, if the Ming army crossed the Yellow River, it would have a strong group of four armies in Shandong, whether it was west to Henan or north to Beijing, it was enough to put the Qing court in a mortal threat. Even if they did not move, the Qing army would inevitably be shaken on the whole line, and in order to avoid the troops of Henan and Anhui being cut off from retreating, they could only implement a general retreat, or go to Shandong to fight a decisive battle with the Ming army.
