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

Chapter 846
Everyone in the hall looked at him, everyone was silent for a while, Duoduo sneered, he laughed suddenly, and finally seemed to be out of breath from laughing, he pointed at Fan Wencheng and said: "Fan Xueshi really Can you tell jokes, how can the rogue He De, let me live and die in the Qing Dynasty? Or are you Nanman just boasting and alarmist talk?"

Many Manchu and Mongolian officials in the hall laughed together. Dorgon inherited Huang Taiji's strategy and treated Hanchen courteously. He had to listen to their opinions on many war strategies.These Manchu and Mongolian banner owners and Gu Shan'ezhen had been dissatisfied for a long time, but they didn't dare to speak out, and this time they just vented out.

Many Eight Banners North Korea and Eight Banners Japan Gu Shane really laughed. After they belonged to the Qing Dynasty, they would naturally stand on the side of the biggest master.And who is the biggest master?Naturally, they are the owners of the Eight Banners Manchuria.Especially Heshuo Deyu Prince Duoduo, who is even more powerful and powerful in the Qing Dynasty. If you don't agree with him, who will you agree with?

The Eight Banners Han army in the hall each had solid foreheads, like Geng Zhongming, Shang Kexi, Ma Guangyuan, and others laughed with them, but everyone looked a little embarrassed.

Dorgon, who was sitting high on the dragon chair, frowned, and felt that Fan Wencheng was a little alarmist, but his expression remained unchanged, and he still sat quietly.

There was laughter in the hall, and Fan Wencheng's expression remained unchanged. For these Han officials, they had long been accustomed to the humiliation of the Manchu and Mongolian ministers.Especially Fan Wencheng, Prince Yu Duoduo relied on himself as Emperor Dorgon's younger brother, so bold, he blatantly usurped his beautiful wife.

But he still remained slavish, comforting himself that "the overall situation is the most important thing", and now the mere verbal humiliation is even more insignificant.

He waited for everyone to laugh enough, and then said slowly: "Prince Yu's words are very true. Although there are many rogues, they cannot be compared with my powerful Qing army. The world will soon be unified, and what I will face in the Qing Dynasty will be a new, powerful, and unified Central Plains dynasty!"

The laughter in the hall stopped abruptly, Dorgon showed a serious look in his eyes, Duoduo opened his mouth, but couldn't laugh anymore.No matter how arrogant and rampant he is, he also knows what a new and unified Central Plains dynasty means to their Qing Dynasty.

Sure enough, Fan Wencheng continued: "Historically, the first thing Ding Ding did in the Central Plains was to use troops outside the Great Wall. Qin, Han, Tang, and Ming were all like this. Even with the weakness of the Song Dynasty, they all made the Northern Expedition to Yanyun. And Jieshi Shunguo obtained the population, materials, and wealth of the entire Ming Dynasty, if they want to spy on me in Liaodong, what should they do?"

The atmosphere in the Chongzheng Hall became solemn. When they were born at the beginning of the Jin Dynasty, they were also in crisis every step of the way. It was not changed until the time of Huang Taiji.But they claim to be "invincible", but they are actually facing the decadent and aging Ming Empire.

In this country, there are constant party struggles, natural disasters, refugees everywhere, civil officials love money, and military commanders are afraid of death, so they have the opportunity to enter the customs and rob.As long as those soldiers put in a little bit of thought and loyalty, such as facing Wang Dou's army, they would be completely defeated.

And in a new, unified Central Plains dynasty, these disadvantages may no longer exist. If they set their sights on Liaodong...

The Qing Dynasty may fall into a difficult situation again.

Jierhalang stood up abruptly, and he said to Dorgon: "Your Majesty, I agree with Fan Xueshi's opinion. The Qing Dynasty is indeed in danger of life and death."

Abatai stood up, with a serious expression on his face, he said: "The slave seconded the proposal."

Du Du, the owner of the Manchuria-inlaid red flag, stood up and said loudly: "The servant also seconded the proposal."

Dai Shan, the leader of Manchuria's Zhenghong Banner, came out tremblingly, and said, "This old slave also agrees."

All the important ministers from Manchu and Mongolia came out and agreed with Fan Wencheng's opinion. Even the original owner of the inlaid yellow banner, Bai Yintu, came out to support it, and Duoduo also kept his mouth shut and no longer objected.

Although they have internal disputes, when facing external threats, especially threats to life and death, they immediately abandon disputes and stick together. This is also the advantage of emerging powers.Unlike some old countries, even if the enemy is approaching the city, they still have to fight to the death.

In the blink of an eye, the situation in the hall changed drastically, and those Eight Banners Koreans and Eight Banners Japanese were dumbfounded.Today they have seen what it means to turn hands into clouds and turn clouds into clouds.Sure enough, those Han people should not be underestimated, especially this Fan Xueshi, who is really alive and kicking.

They quickly agreed, saying that the ministers seconded the proposal.

In the territory of the Qing Dynasty, the title of slave can only be owned by Manchurians and Mongols. In history, in order to be a slave, continuous struggles have lasted for hundreds of years in the Manchu Kingdom.

Dorgon also sat up straight, looked at Fan Wencheng, and said solemnly: "How I should deal with Qing Dynasty, Fan Xueshi will talk about it carefully."

Fan Wencheng said respectfully: "Yes!"

He organized the language: "The minister has three strategies. One strategy is to carve up the world with the Shun country, and even defeat the rogues, and obtain the land and population of the Ming country alone. If you are strong, you will run away. However, today is different from the past, not to mention their military strength and menacing, whether our Qing soldiers can defeat them. It is said that there is still Wang Dou in Xuanfu Shanxi, this man is ambitious, how can he sit back and watch my Qing Dynasty, Shunguo invaded and plundered? In a three-party battle, it is unknown who will win the battle."

Everyone in the hall is in deep thought.

Fan Wencheng continued: "The second strategy is to fight between the snipe and the clam, and the fisherman will benefit from it. Our Qing soldiers marched into the customs. If they encounter bandits, they should be kind to them, and they should be warned not to kill one or two of them by mistake. Dear friends." You can sit back and watch him attack the Ming court and plunder the Xuan Mansion, and when they are both defeated, wait for the opportunity to defeat the two thieves in one fell swoop!"

He said even more ruthlessly: "If the bandits fight with Wang Dou, the king's bandits are powerful, and the situation of the bandits is not good, our Qing Dynasty can even join hands with the bandits to fight against Wang Dou. This king bandit is called the number one enemy of our Qing Dynasty. He is above the rogues, if he gains power, he will never let us off the Great Qing."

Dorgon nodded slightly, but felt that this strategy seemed a bit too idealistic. The bandit thought highly of himself, and he sent an envoy himself, but he couldn't even see Li Chuang's face. It was still unknown whether he could join forces.

Of course, Fan Wencheng said that the snipe and the clam fight each other, and the fisherman's profit makes him very excited. It is best for Wang Dou and Li Zicheng to fight to the death, and finally let himself get a big deal.

Fan Wencheng said: "So after our division entered the customs, if we met the Ming army, we would say that we would drive away thieves and reduce their resistance. We also announced the king's decree not to massacre people, not to burn huts, and not to loot property. Announced to all the government In the county, if there are those who open the door and surrender, the officials will be promoted, and the soldiers and civilians will not commit any crimes. If they resist and refuse to accept, the palace officials will be punished on the day of the city, and the people will still be safe. If there are those who initiate internal responses, they will be rewarded out of the box, this is an important task!"

Dorgon nodded again. Although Qing Dynasty is easy to kill, he knows when to kill and when not to kill.At this time, when it was time to fight for the world, we still had to do our best to save face, so as to win the support of Ming officials and people.

Just thinking about it is as difficult as this strategy. If you don’t say anything else, think about starting from the Qing Dynasty, passing thousands of miles in the west of Liaoning, Yizhou, Jinzhou, Ningyuan, and Shanhaiguan. Along the way, there are Wang Tingchen, Cao Bianjiao, Wu Sangui, Liu Zhaoji, Yang Guozhu, etc. It is not easy for a titan to enter the customs with an army.

In the end, Fan Wencheng said: "The third strategy of the minister is to seize the western part of Liaoning and help the thieves!"

He said: "The Guanning line of defense has always been an obstacle for us to enter the Qing Dynasty. The former Emperor Taizong hated it. It is rumored that the capital of the Ming Dynasty is so thick that it can be defended for a year and a half even if hundreds of thousands of thieves attack it. Although I think this is an exaggeration, it is undoubtedly possible to defend for three months. If you want to destroy the Ming Dynasty, you cannot let the Liaoxi reinforcements assist Mingdu, so we have all the troops, forced to the front of the pass, and dragged Yang Guozhu, Wu Sangui and others. It only takes three months for the bandits to overthrow the Ming Kingdom, and Wu Sangui and others will become the generals of the country, and when I speak softly to appease them, they might return to our country."

"My Qing Dynasty also won the west of Liaoning, and even occupied the land of Shanhaiguan!"

Dorgon slapped the armrest of the dragon chair fiercely, all the ministers in the hall were also whispering to each other, and they all felt that this strategy was very feasible.

The demise of the Ming Dynasty in history has a great relationship with the two-front warfare. Perhaps intentionally or unintentionally, the Manchu Qing and the rogues always cooperated tacitly.The rogues were about to perish, and the Manchus entered the customs, and then the rogues got a chance to breathe and slowly grow stronger.

The Qing soldiers retreated, the imperial court wanted to focus on the Northeast Front, and the rogue bandits concentrated their energies on making trouble, which prevented Daming from concentrating on looking northward, and continued to lose blood, making the national power weaker and weaker.

Even if the two sides work together to make troubles, just like in the 15th to 16th year of Chongzhen in history, there were thieves and barbarians.

Therefore, Fan Wencheng suggested that when the thieves attacked fiercely, if Yang Guozhu, Wu Sangui and the others were to be held back, without the assistance of Yang Guozhu and others, they would have to rely on those capital camps. No matter how strong the capital was, they would be able to hold out for at most three months.

Amidst the excited discussions among the crowd, Fan Wencheng added: "It is Wu Sangui and Yang Guozhu who have completely withdrawn their defenses and returned to aid Mingdu. , and even Shanhaiguan. And seize several strong cities in the pass, as the basis for future military advances, imitating the old stories of Daliao and Dajin!"

But he shook his head and said: "However, I think that the Ming Kingdom will not abandon the pass defense. None of them can bear the crime of abandoning the land, so the capital of Ming Dynasty will fall. I, the Qing Dynasty, took the opportunity to send my troops into the pass, saying: to avenge your father. , you can win over a large number of Ming Dynasty generals and old officials, and also wait for the opportunity to implement the one or two strategy that the minister said!"

The hall was full of attention, and all the officials were listening to Fan Wencheng, who was in high spirits, telling his strategy and tactics. Dorgon kept nodding, his eyes full of deep appreciation.

Duoduo curled his lips, but he had to admit that Fan Wencheng was really a powerful minister of the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty really couldn't do without these Han officials.

Ning Wan, who is also a senior scholar, glanced at Fan Wencheng, who was in high spirits. Jealousy flashed in his eyes, and he muttered: "I'm afraid that Mr. Fan missed someone, and that is Wang Dou who is far away in Monan. Xuanfu Han Chao, the guard of the town, is also his confidant general. No matter if the Ming guards for half a year or three months, such a long time is enough for the Ming monarch and ministers to make a decision. The lower official thinks that life and death are at stake. No matter how suspicious Dou is, he might not be able to recruit King Qin to join the guard. Jie Shiming has no worries, and Yang Guozhu and others are sticking to the defense, and our Qing Dynasty is just a bamboo basket to fetch water!"

Dorgon and others were surprised that this possibility exists.

Fan Wencheng smiled, and he said confidently: "Scholar Ning doesn't have to worry about this matter. Wang Dou has already complained about forcing the gentry officials to pay taxes and depriving them of various preferential treatment rights in various places in Xuanfu Town. To these gentry officials, They would rather perish at the hands of the rogues than fall into the hands of Wang Dou. In addition, his men and horses are strong, and the monarchs and ministers of the Ming Dynasty are increasingly suspicious of him, and they are afraid that they will not be able to avoid him. Otherwise, if Wang Dou goes out, the rogues will be flattened long ago. How did it cause such a disaster, even approaching the capital?"

Ning Wan, I was speechless, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, and he said with a dry smile: "The lower official is just expressing his worries. How to make a decision depends on the dictatorship of the Emperor's Sacred Heart."

Fan Wencheng straightened his official uniform and hat, turned to Dorgon on the dragon chair, knelt down and kowtowed heavily and said: "I have a loyal heart, only for the Qing Dynasty, and I have various strategies, and please Your Majesty's Sacred Heart to be dictatorial!"

Dorgon hesitated, and asked, "How many soldiers and horses do we need to enter the customs?"

Fan Wencheng solemnly said: "This is a national conquest, and it should be poured out of the country!"

Everyone in the hall took another deep breath, especially those Japanese and Koreans, who had never seen such a big scene in their country?I just felt goosebumps all over my body.

They turned to the direction of the dragon chair at the same time, and they all held their breaths to see how Xuantong Emperor Dorgon made a decision on the dragon chair!
