Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Chapter 372: Both soft and hard tactics (Part )

"What! Our army and the Khalkhas are fighting!" In the city of Hoboxali, Suletan was very angry after hearing the news, and kept blaming his brother for causing trouble for him.

The day before yesterday, Qianhu Hada, the Wuyi Guard, presented him with a secret report. The secret report was delivered by flying pigeons, which were extremely fast, far exceeding the speed of horses. It said that Jin Shengheng, the Qing commander-in-chief of Jiangxi Province, and his deputy general Wang Deren rebelled. These two people are also funny. During the rebellion, they did not know the news about the succession of Emperor Yongli of the Southern Ming Dynasty. The notice for peace and security was still signed for the fourth year of Longwu. Later, after learning that Emperor Longwu was killed and King Zhu Youlang of Gui succeeded to the throne, it was changed to the second year of Yongli. Year.

Sultan knew that the uprisings of Jin Shengheng and Wang Deren were a direct result of Dorgon's policy of using Han to control Han. He has always regarded the Manchu emperor's uncle and regent as his biggest opponent and paid special attention to his actions.

After entering the customs, it seems that this opponent made many stupid moves and engaged in "six major bad policies": shaving his hair and changing clothes, enclosing land, occupying houses, surrendering money, fleeing, and massacring the city. But he knew that Dorgon did this not because of a bad brain, but because of the emperor's dream in his heart. The biggest force supporting the emperor's uncle and regent to proclaim himself emperor was the Manchurian dignitaries. Although the Han people hated the "Six Major Abuses", the Manchu dignitaries praised him for plundering a large amount of wealth from them, and regarded him as a good person who represented the interests of Manchuria. At this time, Dorgon should have killed Hauge, his biggest internal rival, and was planning to force the young emperor Shunzhi to remove the word "uncle" from his title and change it from "Emperor's Uncle and Regent" to "Emperor's Father and Regent." .

In fact, his opponent is not stupid, on the contrary, he is extremely political. In order to appease people's hearts, while brutally oppressing the Han and other ethnic groups and currying favor with the Manchu dignitaries, they also used hypocrisy to warn officials, recruit talented people, subsidize the poor, and use Tang Ruowang to discuss and determine the time and calendar. It also pretended to rely heavily on Han officials, reemployed Fan Wencheng, Hong Chengchou, Feng Quan and others, and set up bachelors to perform the duties of the original Ming Dynasty cabinet. Out of his inner distrust of the Han people, whose population far exceeded the Manchus, he played the trick of "using Han to control Han", giving priority to the northern Han people who were surrendered to the Qing Dynasty earlier, and neglecting the southern Han people who were surrendered to the Qing Dynasty later. Create opposition between north and south among Han officials.

This move effectively consolidated the rule of the Qing court and also aroused dissatisfaction among some southern Han people. Jin Shengheng single-handedly conquered Jiangxi for the Manchu Qing Dynasty. He thought he was a powerful man and had a noble title, but unexpectedly he only had one general soldier. The Qing government also sent two northern Han people, Zhang Yutian, governor of Jiangxi, and Dong Xuecheng, governor of Jiangxi, to suppress him. Taking advantage of someone in the court and close relationship with the Manchu masters, these two men extorted money from Jin Shengheng, Wang Deren and others over and over again, forcing them to rebel. Similar ones include Li Chengdong, Jiang Yu and others.

As a time traveler, Suletan knew that Li Chengdong from Guangdong and Jiang Yu from Datong would soon raise troops to respond to Jiangxi, and rebels from Huguang and Fujian would also swarm in. The remnants of the Great Western Army, represented by Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo, were recuperating in Yunnan. , Chao Ma Li Bing. The Qing army was about to enter a difficult moment when war was going on everywhere. He was thinking about whether to cause some trouble for the Qing army through the Hexi Corridor and go to Xi'an for fun. Unexpectedly, my brother actually started a fight with the Khalkhas!
Little brother, little brother, why do you not understand my thoughts so much! The Khalkhas, like us Oirat people, are all Mongols, and they are the intermediate force that I intend to win over. By making such a messy call, wouldn't you be doing Dorgon a favor and pushing them to the Qing court?
"Alas! This kid is like a wild horse. He can't do anything without being tethered by his side. My years of planning have been ruined in one day, and I'm so angry!" Sultan sighed sadly.

Indeed, this self-proclaimed emperor of the ages has long-term plans for the Khalkha Mongolia. This conspiracy started as early as when he married Lin Dan Khan's widow Namu Zhong. Over the years, the imperial concubine Namu Zhong has been maintaining close correspondence with her sister, Ketun of Chechen Khan Shuoli, on his orders. The two sides have sent envoys and gifts to each other, and the relationship is very good; they have also opened several At the border crossing, he did a lot of business with the Khalkha people. He firmly believed that as long as everyone made money, it would not be difficult to develop from an economic partner to a political and military alliance. In order to divide and control the Khalkha people, he also deliberately provoked Zasak Due to the relationship between Tuhan Subadi and Tushe Tuhan Gunbu, when receiving envoys, they often used the excuse that Tushe Tube was the orthodox one in Khalkha, and ranked the envoys of Tushe Tube after Zhasak Tube. In front of the envoy, I hope to cause discord between the two departments.
A series of methods have been used and some results have been achieved. The number of Taiji guards within Khalkha is increasing. Although Zasak Tuhan Subadi was a Khan with prestige and strategy, and many of his damaging, bad, and underhanded moves were cracked by him one by one, but as long as you have patience and given time, the Khalkha Mongols will surely defeat him. Will fall into the arms of David!
But that brat's random punches made me, who had worked hard for many years to drain the water from the Spring River, very annoyed!

"Your Majesty, who do you think is like a wild horse that can't be restrained? Hee hee." A laughter like a silver bell came, and the beautiful Concubine Zhuang Taoges stretched out her jade arms to gently knead him to remove the heat. The beauty, moistened by the rain and dew, became more and more radiant, which made the emperor happy to miss Shu. In fact, it was precisely because he couldn't bear to leave this beauty that the emperor ordered his younger brother to march north, while he stayed in the city of Hoboksali to mess around, no, to handle official business.

However, after all, he is a careerist with great ambitions, and he can always wake up from his gentle country quickly when encountering big events. "Hmph! Who else can he have besides my younger brother? Before leaving, I gave him many warnings and told him to capture Yumhagas and Sengge's mother and son, and not to conflict with the Khalkhas. It would be better for him. , I agreed simply and started fighting with the Khalkha people." Suletan complained about his younger brother for a while, then suddenly smiled at the beautiful peacock, "It's all your fault."

"His Royal Highness the King of Liao is at war with the Khalkha people. Why do you want me to be a concubine? Why do you blame me?" Taoges pouted his mouth and refused.

Sultan touched her tender face and said, "Who makes you so beautiful and makes me linger? If I personally led the troops north, how could so many things happen?"

"Your Majesty," Tao Ges cried out shyly when the emperor praised his beauty, and his pretty face turned red.

After flirting with his beloved concubine for a while, Emperor Qianyuan became less angry and scolded his younger brother with a pen: "You are reckless and unintelligent. You are such a young boy! You wrote a letter to report my small victory over the Khalkha people. Is it true?" Do you still expect me to fight bravely against the enemy? Stop me in Altay immediately, stand firm and wait for help, and don’t fight rashly!"

When he wrote this letter, Suletan only knew that his brother had defeated the Hetuhuit tribe. He did not know that he had defeated Zhasak Tukhan Subadi and the company and captured the part of the Altai Mountains controlled by the Tohuit tribe. Go. Worried about his brother's safety, the emperor personally led 30,000 cavalry, one man and two horses, galloping towards Altay.
