A small soldier of the frontier army in the late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 630

Not only that, in order to show their loyalty to their master, North Korea sent more than 1 troops to join the army in the battle of Liaodong, and almost the entire army was wiped out.

When the news spread back to North Korea, there was an uproar between the ruling and opposition parties, and the pro-Ming faction quickly gained the upper hand. In North Korea, the monarchs and ministers were equally trembling, lest Ming Dynasty would send troops to conquer.

Later, although the Ming Dynasty was unable to conquest, the pro-Ming faction was ready to move. At this time, after Dorgon returned to Shengjing, due to the lack of domestic grain and rice, and in order to appease the Mongols, he intensified his efforts to squeeze Korea, which aroused even more aggression. North Korea is dissatisfied.

However, because the threat of the Qing soldiers was imminent, Daming was unable to rescue by land or across the sea, so after discussions among the North Koreans, they still continued to serve the Qing as the main force, but they were not as respectful as in the past, and secretly sent envoys to Daming. The appearance of the ends of the rat's tail.

At the same time, there was an undercurrent in the country of Korea. Some people secretly suggested that the king of Korea, Li Ji, was immoral, and he was servile to the Hulu, oppressing the people, and he was not worthy of being the master. Some people wanted to replace him.

Dorgon only has a fat pig in North Korea, and he doesn't dare to squeeze it too much. Besides, North Korea is small and weak, and its strength is insufficient. What can be squeezed out?
However, surrounded by a large number of Mongols, they needed help from the Qing Dynasty, and when they failed to meet their desires, they couldn't help being angry.

In November of the 14th year of Chongzhen, several Khan kings of Waizasak Mongolia suddenly left without saying goodbye.

Youruo had a chain reaction, and immediately afterward, Tumed, the Mongolian vassal, Zasak, Ombu, Chuhuer, and Shanba, who were dissatisfied with the rewards they had received, also planned to leave without saying goodbye.

The two privately discussed that after returning to the station, it would be fine to go to join Wang Dou. The grassland and forest land of the two were not far from Wang Dou's sphere of influence, and Wang Dou would definitely be the key target in the future.

In the battle of Liaodong, many Mongols were already terrified, and the same was true for Shanba and others.

However, with the lessons learned from the Mongolian Khans of Waizasak, Dorgon had already become vigilant about the movement of the Mongols.

In front of the ministers of Manchuria and Mongolia, Dorgon ordered the execution of Ermubu Chuhuer and Shanba, and appointed a new Tumed Left and Right Banner Zasak.

It's just that, the Mongolian Zhasak of the outer vassals didn't say anything on the surface, but in their hearts, they were even more alienated from the Qing Dynasty.

Of course Dorgon knew this, so he was very worried in his heart. Domestic affairs involved a lot of his energy, and he was busy until the first month of the lunar year before he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In the current situation, North Korea is small and can't squeeze out much oil and water. Man Qing's vitality is seriously injured, and he needs to recuperate, and moreover, he needs foreign oil and water to make up for the loss.

The Shanxi Merchants have been cut off by Wang Dou. Although the people who fornicated the Qing Dynasty were not only the Shanxi merchants from the three towns of Xuanda, Jiubianzhong, Jizhen, Miyun, Shanhaiguan, Liaodong, and even Jingshi, Shandong, Jiangnan and other places, There are quite a lot of slaves.

Dorgon is confident that with huge profits, there will be a steady stream of people who come to smuggle.

There are not many other things in the Qing Dynasty, but there is a lot of money, people and medicinal materials, which are also very attractive.

It's just that it takes years and months of hard work, and it won't be effective in a short while.

I still want to make up for the loss. The most important method is to enter the customs and plunder. Although the Qing Dynasty lost a lot in the Battle of Jinzhou, Dorgon is confident. In terms of overall combat power, the Qing Dynasty is still stronger than the Ming Army. Of course, this requires Excluding the Jingbian army.

However, to plunder Daming, Wang Dou is a hurdle that cannot be bypassed.

Wang Dou ransacked the house vigorously in Xuanda, and gained a lot of money. Dorgon had already obtained the information, which was also within his expectation, not at all unexpected.

Perhaps, the person who understands you the most is often your enemy. This sentence is not unreasonable.

Wang Dou became stronger, and Dorgon was extremely worried.

Also, during the period when Da Qing was resting and recuperating, how to keep Da Ming from fighting would also be a headache for Dorgon.

Sitting on the dragon chair, Dorgon was full of ambition, and then there was endless pressure. It is not easy to be an emperor, no wonder his fourth brother is getting fatter every year.

He coughed and shouted majesticly: "Xuan, the scholar of Hongwen Academy has finished me!"

……

After ascending the throne, Dorgon found that he, like Huang Taiji, still could not do without the assistance of Han civil servants. The Eight Banners were full of Mongolian banner leaders. Although they fought bravely, they were still far inferior to the Han people in handling government affairs.

The governance of a country is inseparable from literati, so continuing to reuse Hanchen has become one of Dorgon's follow-up policies.

Regarding the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, after the Liaodong War, privately, the owners of the Manchu and Mongolian Banners had to admit that the biggest casualties of the Jingbian Army were caused by the Han Army. They were very large and high-quality cannon fodder, so the reorganization of the Eight Banners , also put on Dorgon's agenda.

However, it is easy to rebuild the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, but where to build the blunderbuss and artillery again, where do the iron materials come from?
Soon, under Dorgon's edict, I came in a hurry after Ning Wan, a scholar of Hongwen Academy.

Ning Wanwo, who is over 50 years old, has a thin appearance, two mustaches, and gloomy eyes, was once the core figure of Huang Taiji's think tank.

After Huang Taiji established the Hongwen Academy, he became the president of the Hongwen Academy. Together with Gao Hongzhong, Bao Chengxian, Fan Wencheng and others, he translated and compiled Hongwu Baoxue, the Ming Dynasty will compile various Ming classics, and perfected the system, which played an important role in the nationalization of the Qing Dynasty. .

The Qing army was defeated, the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty were destroyed, and Huang Taiji died. Ning Wan and I waited for a group of Han officials. They used to be terrified, but Dorgon showed that after he continued to use the strategy of the Han officials, Ning Wan and us were all terrified. I am grateful, and do my best to make suggestions for Emperor Shunzhi.

After Ning finished, I hurried over and kowtowed respectfully. After Dorgon rewarded him with a small stool, he carefully touched his buttocks.

After listening to Dorgon's question about how to make Da Qing rest and recuperate in peace and make Da Ming not to fight, he pondered for a long time and said decisively: "The only way to return to the emperor is to negotiate a peace!"

"Reconciliation?"

Dorgon pondered.

Dorgon did not have any psychological barriers when it came to reconciliation. The barbarians outside the Great Wall, pretending to be grandsons when weak, and being tigers and wolves when they are strong, have been like this for thousands of years. This is what Wei Zheng said: "This generation will be robbers when it is strong, and it will be humble if it is weak." Fu, even animals."

With the current state of the Qing Dynasty, it is necessary to negotiate peace. The key point is, will Daming agree?

Externally, they would rather be broken than broken, and they have always been tough.

Ning Wan and I said confidently: "What I see, the Ming Dynasty will definitely agree to."

He analyzed: "The Jinzhou War is over. Although our Qing Dynasty has suffered setbacks, the Southern Dynasty is not much better. Not to mention the heavy losses of the soldiers, there are natural disasters and plagues in the country, and there are endless refugees. According to information, Ming Kingdom Henan The various lands are thriving again, and they even killed the vassals. The emperor of the Southern Dynasty was eager to wipe out the rogues, and he definitely had no time to look north. As long as I speak humblely, even if they can’t negotiate a peace openly, at least they will acquiesce. Both sides Don't use weapons."

"Taking advantage of this opportunity, I, Da Qing, can recuperate and wait for the opportunity!"

Dorgon felt relieved, as long as the peace talks were successful, what was the humble words?
He thought to himself: "These Han people really have a lot of twists and turns, but they understand the inside story of the Ming Dynasty, and they are the good helpers of the Qing Dynasty."

He got up and paced, then sneered: "Not only that, Daming is in civil turmoil, it's a mess!"

He said: "There are internal strife among the bandits, and the swarms of local thieves, there may be millions, or three or four hundred thousand, attacking the city and plundering the land, there is no way to stop it. My Qing Dynasty should continue to add fire to keep the internal strife in order to take my fisherman's life. profit……"

Although he didn't say how to add fuel to the flames, I still hurriedly said: "The emperor is wise."

There was some chill in my heart. Compared with Emperor Taizong Wen, this one in front of me was a little less sketchy, but a little more sinister, and more fond of intrigue, but it was very effective.

He flattered: "I think that there is a sign of Ming's doom, and Ming's generals will not be able to fight against us, but instead plagiarize themselves, mutilate the people, bribe courtiers, and cheat for their own merits. Courtiers are dedicated to treachery and slander to deceive the Lord." Eyes and ears, accepting bribes privately, punishing those who are innocent, rewarding those who are not meritorious, if you look at it from this point of view, you will perish if you understand it, and the fate is in my hands.”

Dorgon nodded in satisfaction, sat back on the dragon chair, and said, "Tell me, how to deal with Wang Dou?"

He had some headaches. With Wang Dou around, the Qing Dynasty would not be able to enter the pass to rob, make up for losses, and strengthen himself. How can we move away from the mountain of Wang Dou?
There was a glint of coldness in Ning Wan's eyes, and I said: "My minister, please do countermeasures!"

Dorgon pondered: "A countermeasure?"
