Zhou Ze's side has also received Zhu Youzhen's instructions from Jinyi Wei Li Yongxing.
"Your Majesty's decree is to launch the Battle of Irichuan as soon as possible, launch an offensive against Zhang Xianzhong's troops, determine the date of the attack, and the exterminating army will cooperate at that time."
Li Yongxing, the captain of Jinyi, handed a small note to Zhou Ze, who immediately took it and glanced at it, and threw it into the incense burner.
"Wechen understands, please tell Your Majesty, Wechen will live up to the trust."
After Zhou Ze finished speaking, he began to think carefully, since he came to Hantun to raise soldiers on the instructions of Dolgon, he had recruited 100,000 soldiers, and one-third of his lower-level officers were Jinyiwei spies.
From a certain point of view, the new army of the green battalion of the Qing army in front of him is basically the army of the Ming Dynasty, but it is only temporarily wearing the skin of the Qing army.
Even the Guards, in the name of Ma Shiying, secretly funded 5,000 Chongzhen 19-style flintlock pistols and 100 infantry light three-pound field guns and 100 infantry heavy 16-pound field guns.
Dolgon is basically in a free-range state for Zhou Ze, and he has the mind to pass through Sichuan and Shaanxi, but he has no ability to help Zhou Ze through Sichuan and Shaanxi.
His yellow and white flags have been damaged in several wars.
Therefore, he can only hope that Zhou Ze can carve out a piece of the world by himself in Sichuan and Shaanxi, if he can conquer Sichuan, it will be good, if he can't occupy Sichuan, he will only die in the green camp of the Han army, and he will not feel distressed.
However, Dolgon still tried his best to help Zhou Ze, in order to allow Zhou Ze to contain the Ming army in the southwest.
Dolgon even personally visited Zilharang, imploring Jilharang to help Zhou Ze's business in Sichuan and Shaanxi, not only to prevent the Ming army from Hanbei in the future, but also to prepare for the Ming army's northern expedition to contain the Ming army in the future, and even imagined that if the situation changed, he could take advantage of this without having to return to the border and seize Sichuan.
"The Southern Army's Northern Expedition has always had these roads, taking the Shu Road into Han and out of Tongguan, crossing the Yellow River north from Xiangyang Beitong Pass, crossing the Yellow River north through Hugao Pass and going to the Daimyo's Mansion is one, and taking Cao through Dezhou to occupy Baoding, and the other is the sea route to Tianjin Wei to Jinggi."
"To the west we can send heavy troops to hold Tongguan, to the south we need to hold the Daimyo Mansion and Baoding, to the east we need to hold Tianjin Wei, from Fengrun to Shanhaiguan and Shenyang also need to deploy heavy troops, the other is Jizhou and Gubeikou, if Beijing is not guaranteed can calmly withdraw from the Guanwai, if the Ming army uses the naval advantage to occupy the Guanwai first, then you can enter Wusizang from Sichuan, or from Shaanxi out of Mobei."
Dolgon did not hold out any hope that the Ming would agree to a peace treaty, so when he saw the auxiliary king Zilharang, he began to talk directly about how to defend the northern provinces.
Although the auxiliary king Zilharan was not at peace with Dorgon, he had to admit that the defensive strategy that Dolgon had said was very appropriate.
Now that the Ming Dynasty refused to negotiate peace and directly killed the envoys, Zilharang had no hope of peace talks, and he now had to support Dolgon and Zhou Ze.
"The day before yesterday, the regent said that he hoped to send a soldier and horse to support Zhou Zejing Sichuan, I thought about it, what you said is not unreasonable, although now I have fewer and fewer soldiers and horses in the Qing Dynasty, but I can still draw out an elite army, and then even if it is through Sichuan, how can there be a reason for a Han man from a drama to be in charge, in my opinion, why not let Haoge be in charge, he is the son of the first emperor, a royal nobleman, and his blue flag has not suffered too much loss, with him through Sichuan, maybe he can get twice the result with half the effort!"
Zilharang was a standard royalist.
Now Dolgon's strength has been greatly damaged, and the only one who can compete with Zilharang and pose a threat to Emperor Shunzhi is Prince Hauge, who has always coveted the emperor's throne.
Therefore, Zilharang thought of using Dolgon's proposal to support Zhou Ze to transfer Hauge and keep him away from the capital, even if the capital was lost and retreated to the pass in the future, there would be less of a threat.
Although Zilharang used to have a good relationship with Hauge, time has passed, and now Dorgon is no longer his opponent, and Hauge, who still has strength, has naturally changed from an ally to his opponent.
Dolgon admits that Zilharang has a good calculation, and now the two red and red flags are controlled by Zilharang's people, and if Hauge's positive blue flag is transferred, it means that the entire Shunzhi is surrounded by his red flag and the people with red flags, which also means that Zilharang's power is more concentrated.
But Dolgon has no intention of stopping Zilharang now, and he and Hauge have always had a discordant relationship, so naturally they don't want Hauge to become bigger, and now they are willing to use Anzir Harang's sword to rectify Hauge's power.
"The auxiliary prince is right, Prince Su has always been brave and good at fighting, and now my Qing Dynasty is in crisis, and he needs to be able to turn the tide with royal princes and nobles like him, why not our concerted performance, please long live the prince of Su as the general of the expedition to the west and the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi Zhou Ze to jointly crusade against Sichuan."
When Dorgon said this, Zilharan also laughed: "What the Lord Regent said is very true! ”
People sit at home, and things come from heaven.
Haoge was in a very irritable mood now, he thought that after Dorgon's strength was greatly reduced, he could take the opportunity to rise to take charge of the Qing Dynasty, but he didn't expect that many Eight Banners nobles would choose to support Jierharang, and even Fan Cheng and other Han bureaucrats also looked forward to Prince Zheng Jierharang.
Therefore, Hauge is now eager to find an opportunity to kill Zilharang directly.
But what he didn't expect was that Dorgon and Zilharan had already sold him together.
When Haoge received that the Qing court appointed him as the general of the expedition to the west to lead the main force of the Blue Banner to conquer Sichuan, Haoge was so angry on the spot that he was furious, but he could not disobey the will of the imperial court, and he could only leave Beijing with the army and conquer Sichuan in the west.
As soon as Haoge left the capital, Jierharang immediately stationed his heavy troops at Tongguan, Hujiaoguan, Shanhaiguan and Tianjinwei.
At the same time, Zierharang began to order all kinds of precious goods and gold and silver to be transported to Shenyang outside the Guan, and a large amount of grain was hoarded in Yanjiao, and even tea and salt were also collected in large quantities.
It didn't take long for Zhou Ze to learn that Hauge had been appointed as the general of the expedition to the west.
Now he also has his own eyeliner in Beijing, and Han Zhi is now the second rank of the Qing court, and he used heavy gold to tie up the wives of high-ranking officials and nobles in the Qing court, and he inquired a lot about the secrets of the Qing court in the women's circle, and passed it to Zhou Ze here through Jinyiwei.
"Prince Su Haoge has no intention of confronting Sichuan in the west, he has stationed troops in Xi'an in order to preserve his strength, and ordered you to be the vanguard to go south to capture Baoning and Kuizhou, making it clear that he wants to sacrifice your troops to complete the imperial court's will to let him attack Sichuan, and he himself hides in Xi'an, and even asks you to give him 50,000 stones of grain and grass."
After Li Yongxing, the captain of Jinyi, said, Zhou Ze laughed: "This Prince Su is not stupid, no matter what, I still promise him to give him 100,000 stone grain, let him eat and drink well in Xi'an, and our side should attack Baoning immediately after the Autumn Festival!" You go and tell Your Majesty that the exterminator army will cooperate in attacking Kuizhou and Chongqing. ”
