Chapter 215: The Prince is Born, and there is a successor to Daqi!
Great Khan, according to the news from Xizuo, the grain and grass escorted by Zhao Shujiao is in Ning Yuanwei."
Kakduli replied.
"Give the order to go down and rest on the spot."
After a moment of silence, Huang Taiji spoke, "In addition, let all the fine works report the location of Zhao Shujiao at any time."
"Great Khan, if you act too often, it will attract the attention of the Ming people, and then our arrangement will be in vain."
Hearing Huang Taiji's words, Kakduli's face changed slightly, he had put a lot of thought into arranging these fine works, and it took several years to lay out thousands of fine works here, if the actions were too frequent, they would definitely be discovered by the Ming people.
At that time, the Ming people will definitely clean up the fine work in various places and take strict precautions, and it will be difficult to arrange the fine work here in the future.
"Just arrange it."
Hearing this, Huang Taiji just waved his hand expressionlessly, he naturally knew this kind of thing, but whether or not he could destroy the five thousand cavalry of Zhao Shujiao was related to whether they could stay on Guangningwei's side for a long time.
If the logistics of the Ming army cannot be cut off and Yuan Chonghuan is forced to withdraw, then they will be dragged to death by fighting on both sides sooner or later, they are not better than the Ming Dynasty, the great cause of the Ming family, even if the consumption is great, they can support it, but they can't, if it drags on, not only Liaodong can't keep it, but the grassland can't keep it either.
"Yes!"
Seeing that Huang Taiji was determined, Kakeduli could only give up.
…
On the other side, Zhao Shujiao, who was in Ning Yuanwei at this time, also received the news that Zu Dashou was intercepted and killed, so he stopped at Ning Yuanwei and didn't dare to move.
………
Dongchang Fort.
The faces of Yuan Chonghuan, Guo Qin, Zu Dashou, and He Kegang were all gloomy, and the logistics were cut off.
"Jing Liu, I'm afraid this Huang Taiji is not crazy."
He Kegang looked worried, he had been in Liaodong for so many years, and he knew a lot about the Jurchens, if it was not necessary, the Jurchens rarely let the Eight Banners fight to the death, including when attacking the city, they generally drove the Liao people from all over the country in the front, and the Eight Banners soldiers in the back, in order to reduce losses.
However, from the interception of Zu Dashou to the current blockage in Panshan Station, in this case, the Jurchens' losses will not be less, which is incredible for the Jurchens, because the Jurchens can't afford it at all.
"Jinglu, do you want to go back to Guangningwei?"
Zu Dashou looked at Yuan Chonghuan, now there are 150,000 recruits and more than 50,000 guards in Liaodong, most of the recruits are here, and there are only a small number of recruits and guards on the side of Guangningwei and Ning Yuanwei, and it would be good if those people could hold the major castles, and if they wanted to rely on them to drive Huang Taiji out of Guangningwei, it would be a fool's dream.
"Huang Taiji is afraid that he also wants us to withdraw his troops."
Hearing Zu Dashou's words, Yuan Chonghuan's eyes narrowed slightly: "Zu Dashou and He Kegang listen to the order, and the two of you will lead 50,000 soldiers and horses back to help Guangningwei."
Although he didn't know why Huang Taiji was so crazy, the more Huang Taiji wanted him to do it, the more he couldn't do it.
"The last general commands!"
Zu Dashou and He Kegang responded with each other.
…
With Zu Dashou and He Kegang leading the troops back to help, the entire Guangning Wei became a mess, and Huang Taiji relied on the speed advantage of the cavalry to easily break through the encirclement before being encircled, and returned to the grassland unharmed.
But after more than ten days, it broke into the side wall again from other places, and the border wall defense line from Ning Yuanwei to Guangningwei, which was hundreds of miles long, completely became a sieve, and it was impossible to stop Huang Taiji's footsteps.
Big Victory Castle.
The fortress, which had been closed at the gates, was now open, and behind the gates was a corpse strewn around, blood staining the ground and the stream red.
In the city, countless Jurchen cavalry tortured and killed the Liao people in the city like evil ghosts, and the screams were endless, accompanied by the arrogant laughter of the Jurchen cavalry.
"Give the order to go down, set fire, and retreat to the grassland."
Looking at the miserable situation in the city, Huang Taiji was expressionless, he didn't want to do the slaughter of the city, for the past two years, he has been trying to win over the hearts of the Han people in Liaodong, because there are too few people in the Jurchen clan, and the army wants to expand, either the Mongols or the Han people in Liaodong.
Most of the Mongols on the Liaodong side belonged to the Monan tribes, and it was difficult for him to recruit more Mongols, so he had been trying to find a way to pull their Han slaves out of the banners to form the Han Eight Banner Army.
But now Yuan Chonghuan refuses to withdraw his troops, and he has no choice, if he wants to force Yuan Chonghuan away from Liaodong, he can only massacre, as long as enough people are killed, there will be more people in the Ming Dynasty to impeach Yuan Chonghuan.
Soon, fires erupted from houses to house, and countless Jurchen cavalry withdrew from the fortress.
When Zu Dashou arrived with soldiers and horses, the entire Dasheng Fort had already fallen into a sea of fire.
…
Time passed day by day, and Huang Taiji led the cavalry with white and white flags on the hundreds of miles long side wall to burn and loot, and slaughtered on a large scale.
In just a few months, Daxing Fort, Dafu Fort, Damao Fort, Tuanshan Fort, Dading Fort.........
More than 20 castles were slaughtered, and tens of thousands of Han people in Liaodong died under the butcher's knives of the Jurchens!
The other Liaodong Han people fled to the Guannai in horror, and more than 100,000 Liaodong Han people poured into Beizhili, and for a while, the Jingshi was shaken!!
………
The capital city of Jinan.
In Zichen Palace, Su Hao closed his eyes and practiced, refining the pill in his abdomen with all his might, and the three natal paper figures on the side were burying their heads in reviewing the book.
At this time, Su Hao slowly opened his eyes and looked at the stairs on the side, where a little eunuch was slowly walking up under the leadership of the guards.
Seeing the little eunuch, Su Hao's eyes narrowed slightly, this little eunuch was sent by him to serve Fu Bo, and if there was nothing to do, he would not leave Fu Bo's side.
Seeing Su Hao, the little eunuch hurriedly came to Su Hao's face, and said with surprise: "Emperor, Grandpa Fu asked me to report that the queen mother is about to give birth!"
Hearing this, Su Hao stood up suddenly, this matter is very important to him, and it is also very important to Daqi, the emperor has an heir, which means that there is a successor, and it is also a reassuring pill for the officials up and down Daqi.
Even if he really has three longs and two shorts, the civil and military officials of the entire Great Qi have a backbone, and they will not collapse immediately.
When Su Hao came to Qingning Palace, there were already a lot of people gathered here, including the old palace maid with delivery experience, and the imperial doctor waiting on the side, everyone was waiting for them, and Ran Yan had already entered the dormitory, and the palace maids entered with a basin of hot water, and the shouts in the room also sounded.
"Young Master."
Seeing Su Hao, Fu Bo hurriedly greeted him.
"Fauber, nothing is wrong, is there?"
Glancing at the guards and palace maids and eunuchs around Qingning Palace, Su Hao's expression was serious, Daqi was Da Ming's henchman, and Da Ming might not be willing to watch Da Qi stabilize internally.
He himself is not afraid of assassination, after all, with his strength, not many people can threaten him, but Ran Yan is different from children, even a little poison is enough to kill.
"Young master, don't worry,"
Hearing this, Fu Bo arched his hand and said, "I have carefully checked all the people who entered the dormitory one by one."
"Hmm."
Su Hao nodded, and then walked towards the room where Ran Yan was.
Coming to the door, listening to the bursts of screams of pain coming from the room, Su Hao couldn't help but be a little nervous, two lives, this is the first time to wait for a woman to give birth to a child for him, it is impossible to say that he is not nervous.
The news soon spread outside the palace, the queen was about to give birth, and for a while, the civil and military officials in Jinan Mansion were also alarmed.
His Majesty is going to have an heir, which is good news for everyone.
The six Shangshu, the cabinet elders, and the left and right governors of the Five Military Governor's Mansion ran to the palace as soon as possible, and the other courtiers were waiting quietly outside the palace, they also wanted to enter the palace, but they didn't have the resources
Case.
In addition, Ran Yan's family also ran into the palace, and the national abbot Ran Mingyu was the first to arrive.
Outside the Qingning Palace, everyone is looking forward to it, although Su Hao's age is indeed not very old now, but Su Hao has no heirs so far, everyone's hearts are still a little uneasy, and now Su Hao's first heir is about to be born, for Daqi, this is a reassuring pill!
What's more, after the imperial doctor has checked the pulse many times, it has been determined that the child in the queen's womb is a boy, and once the child is born, it will be the prince of Daqi.
In a pavilion not far from many ministers of civil and military affairs, Zhuo Qingxuan and Liao Luxuan both looked at Qingning Palace with envy on their faces, although Su Hao did not snub them, in the ten months that Ran Yan was pregnant, Su Hao would spend the night with them from time to time, but their stomachs were always angry.
So much so that the courtiers all played one after another, so that Su Hao started the draft again to fill the harem and spread out for the Daqi royal family.
After waiting for more than an hour, the cry of the child and the cheers of the ladies of the palace finally came from the room.
An old palace maid ran out of the room in a frenzy, knelt directly in front of Su Hao, and said loudly, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty! There is a successor to the Great Qi, and the queen mother gave birth to a dragon son!"
Hearing this, Su Hao instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and then hurriedly asked, "How is the queen?"
The old palace maid hurriedly said, "Back to Your Majesty, the queen mother is no longer in trouble."
"Good! Okay!"
Su Hao was overjoyed and said, "Today, everyone has a reward, and all the people in the palace have given wine and meat, and this month's income has doubled!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Hearing this, the old palace maid hurriedly kowtowed.
When Su Hao came to the outside of the palace, Guo Hong, Jiang Shizhong, Zhou Xian, Hou Yuan, and others stepped forward to congratulate: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, send a decree to all officials, this month's income will be doubled, my prince will be born, the courtiers in the court will be rewarded, and the cabinet will draw up a charter."
"Your Ministers obey."
Zhou Xian and Hou Yuangao bowed down and responded.
When the news of the queen's birth of a dragon son came out of the palace, the entire Jinan Mansion City was lively, not only the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces were waiting for Su Hao's heirs, but also the people of Shandong were waiting.
Although Daqi's taxes are also not light, they are much lighter than those of Daming, and more importantly, Daqi only collects regular taxes and forced labor, and there are no other harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and the lives of the people are not sad, so no one wants anything to happen to Daqi.
………
Not to mention the festive and lively side of Daqi, at this time, there were countless undercurrents surging in the Daming Jingshi, and the officials of all sizes in the Jingshi were focused in the direction of the palace.
Something is wrong!
Dozens of castles in Liaodong were trapped, tens of thousands of Liaodong people were slaughtered, castles were burned, hundreds of thousands of Liaodong people poured into Beizhili, and the entire Jiliao area became a mess.
Qianqing Palace.
Looking at the mountains of impeachment recitals on the bookcase, Zhu Youzhen's expression was gloomy, and he didn't expect that in the past six months or so, Yuan Chonghuan had not driven the Jurchens out of Liaodong, but had poked out such a big basket.
Tens of thousands of Liaodong people were killed, and more than 100,000 Liaodong people fled into the pass!
Below, Cheng Jiming, Zhou Yanru, He Ruzhong, Qian Xiangkun and other cabinet elders looked at Zhu Youzhen's gloomy face, and they all had a headache.
In fact, three or four months ago, there were already people in Liaodong who fled into the customs one after another, but there were not many at that time, because the Jurchens entered the customs last year, many people fled to other places, and there were many barren fields, and these people could still find a place to make a living, and there was not much movement.
However, in the past month or so, more than 100,000 people in Liaodong have fled into the Guannei, and so many people can't afford to raise them in Jiliao, so they all poured into the capital, making a big commotion, and the situation in Liaodong was only known.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you say we should do?"
Zhu Youzhen's face was gloomy, Yuan Chonghuan had played before, because he mobilized a large army to attack the Acropolis of Haizhou, causing the Jurchen dogs to jump over the wall in a hurry.
rushed into Guangningwei and Ning Yuanwei to make trouble, he thought it was just an ordinary invasion, so when the ministers of the court impeached Yuan Chonghuan, he just withheld it and did not approve it, who knew that it would be so serious.
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the refugees who will pour into Beijing should be arranged first."
Hearing Zhu Youzhen's words, Cheng Ji, as the first assistant, could only give up his life.
Cheng Ji's words made Zhu Youzhen frown, and he asked how to deal with Yuan Chonghuan, not those refugees.
However, since Cheng Ji's life has been said, this problem cannot be ignored, after all, it is hundreds of thousands of people, and now those people are relying on the soup kitchen in the capital to barely survive, and some people are killing and looting outside the city, if it is not dealt with, the problem will only get more and more serious.
What's more, now there is also a shortage of food in Beijing, hundreds of thousands of refugees have to consume seventy or eighty thousand stone of grain every month to feed, the capital simply cannot afford to continue to bear, and now the canal is controlled by Su Hao, and every time an extra boat of grain is transported into Beijing, Su Hao has to draw three more percent, which is all white silver.
Moreover, there is not enough land in the capital to support these hundreds of thousands of people, and it is also not possible to forcibly drive these people back to Liaodong, the Jurchens are killing people over there, and if they rush back, they will just let them go back and die, and his reputation as an emperor will be lost.
After a moment of silence, Zhu Youzhen spoke, "Then how do you Aiqing think these refugees should be resettled?"
