On May 24 of the first year of Shunzhi, it was ordered to be cancelled.

On the 5th day of the fourth month of the second year of Shunzhi, Duoduo led the Qing army to march from Guide to Defu, marched to the south of the Yangtze River, and entered the city of Nanjing on May 15.

At about the same time in Beijing, Li Ruolin, who was then the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites and a bachelor of the Inner Hanlin Hongwen Academy, suddenly rumored that Dolgon had a heavy shaving order, which caused an uproar.

On May 22 of the second year of Shunzhi, Yushi Zhao happily impeached Li Ruolin for "not being able to do things with Taoism" and "confusing the people with contradictions", and expressed his hope that "the world will be governed by etiquette and music".

This was refuted by Dorgon, who still stated that "if you don't want to shave your head, you don't have to force it."

On May 28 of the second year of Shunzhi, the Qing court received the good news of Duoduo's pacification of Jiangnan.

On May 29, the second year of Shunzhi, Dolgon was dissatisfied with the large number of recitals opposing the shaving of the head and citing the "old court ritual music system", and said that "it is necessary to send a decree to all the officials and the people to shave their heads", and the scholars present dissuaded him on the grounds of "pointing to the mixing of the south of the Yangtze River".

On the fifth day of the sixth month of the second year of Shunzhi, the Qing court issued an edict to Duoduo, ordering "to register the civil, military, military and civilian everywhere, and to do everything in order, and to engage in military law if there is disobedience."

On June 15 of the second year of Shunzhi, the Qing court officially issued a shaving order to the whole country.

After the Qing army entered the customs, the initial policy of shaving hair and making it easy to obey was no different from before entering the customs, and whether or not to shave their hair was used as a sign to judge rebellion, "to be obedient and rebellious", and the evaluation of those who "although they are called obedient but do not have their hair" is also "suspicious and wait-and-see", which shows a sense of distrust in those who do not shave their hair.

However, only about 20 days later, the Qing court canceled the previous order to shave their hair, and "from now on, the subjects of the world will continue to tie their hair as usual, and they will do as they please", on the grounds that "the current news is very popular with the wishes of the people, but it is not the original intention of the people to be determined by culture and education."

This should be the result of widespread resistance, even resistance, from the local government and the dissuasion of a large number of officials in the court.

However, this did not mean that it was Dorgon's intention to cancel the order to shave his hair.

In fact, in July of the first year of Shunzhi, when Dolgon replied to Zhu Langjiao, the governor of Shandong, who hoped that the three new superintendents would use Ming-style clothes, he said, "At present, there is an urgent rebellion, and the military affairs are in good shape, and the clothes and etiquette are not formulated." Nearly simple with the officials, Gu Yiming style", it seems that the promise is quite reluctant, cancel the shaving

Command to be easily served.

In fact, it is more like a temporary measure, which is quite consistent with what he said when he later reissued the shaving order, "If you want the world to be decided, you must start this ear control".

Therefore, when Duoduo continued to report good news from the front, it was only natural that there was a heavy order to shave his hair.

According to the performance of Zhao Xingxing, the then superintendent of Shaanxi Province, Li Ruolin, who was a bachelor, was "greedy for a position and a solid favor", "coveted a seat in the inner courtyard", "suddenly rumored that the king had the will of officials and people to shave their heads", and "the competition for the court was stunned".

Of course, Zhao Xingxing's impeachment may not be simple, and it seems to involve factors of party strife in the early Qing Dynasty, but the core of his recital is still against shaving his hair and changing clothes, and he puts Dolgon into the same camp in the recital, apparently hoping that Dolgon can quell the so-called "rumors".

However, the reality is not so rosy, Dolgon's reply is unusually tough, "I want to make the officials and people of the country, do not follow the Qing system, and end up in the Ming Dynasty", but at this time Dolgon did not force the matter of shaving his head.

However, it seems that due to the large number of opposition to the alternation of shaving and shaving music, Dolgon's attitude has also changed significantly, and he considers the courtiers' remarks about this "very indecent", and said that "I do not respect the system of this dynasty, and I will want to follow the system of the Ming Dynasty, what is the sincerity of the heart", and also expressed the intention of re-shaving the hair.

Although the scholars present tried to dissuade them, it was evident that this dissuasion had not been successful, as the Qing court had issued an edict to Doduo a few days later to enforce the shaving order.

And on the 28th of the previous day, the Qing court received the good news of pacifying Jiangnan, and the reason given by the scholar was very embarrassing.

So what was the motive of the Qing court to implement the shaving of hair and easy to wear, and why did it once cancel the order of shaving and changing clothes.

The Qing court regarded the clothing system as a fundamental political system.

In fact, not only the Qing Dynasty, but almost all dynasties in ancient China attached great importance to the clothing and crown system.

The Qing court regarded the clothing and crown system as an important measure to distinguish it from its predecessors, especially since the Qing rulers needed to rule a large number of people who were different from their own clothing and crown forms, making them highly sensitive.

At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, the rulers of the Qing Dynasty had a sense of distrust of a large number of converts, and still suspected that they missed the Ming Dynasty.

The highly sensitive form of clothing and hairstyle was regarded by the Qing rulers as an important system to distinguish the Ming Dynasty from the Qing Dynasty, so in the process of the Qing court's re-shaving order, the "Ming system" and the "current dynasty system" were constantly emphasized.

This point was a consistent line of thought of the Qing court, and it did not change even after the Shunzhi pro-government.

In February of the tenth year of Shunzhi, Emperor Shunzhi issued an edict to the Ministry of Rites, saying that "a generation of crown clothes has its own generation of systems", and required that future clothing "should be full of style, no similarities and differences are allowed", which can be seen.

The Qing court wanted to rule China, and shaved their hair to distinguish between obedience and obedience.

When the Qing court cancelled the shaving order on May 24 of the first year of Shunzhi, it mentioned that the reason for the previous issuance of the shaving order was that "the people who returned to obedience due to the previous cause should not be differentiated, so they should be ordered to wear their hair so as not to be obedient".

The Qing court wanted to rule China, so "the Chinese and foreign families, the king is like the father, the people are the son, the father and the son are one, how can it be disobeyed", naturally those who are unwilling to shave their hair and change their clothes, "few are people from foreign countries".

Therefore, "those who obey are the people of our country, and those who hesitate are the same as those who disobey the fate."

The Qing court's brief ban on shaving and changing clothes was more like a temporary measure to unify the country.

In fact, as the Qing court said when it reissued the shaving order on June 15, the second year of Shunzhi, "The system of hair has always been the system of naginata, not the order to draw one, and those who listen to their own convenience, want to make the world decided, and start to implement this system of ears", which is also consistent with what Dolgon said when he replied to Zhu Langhua, the governor of Shandong, and it was revealed that the order to shave his hair was cancelled, but it was because "the current urgent rebel thief, the military affairs are Yin", and he has not taken care of the clothes and etiquette, and he is in the Ming style.

And in the early Qing Dynasty, most of the arguments of those who opposed shaving and making it easy to wear were that "at the beginning of the Jiangnan Dynasty, when they heard about this trend, people were timid and did not move forward, and they prevented people from thinking of returning to obedience, which was really a curse to say", and used the world to prevent the implementation of shaving and easy to wear.

The rulers of the Qing Dynasty themselves also had the worry that "it would be difficult to clean up the heroes between the fears of the grass and the wilderness", so it is more likely that the cancellation of the shaving order in the early Qing Dynasty was just a Huairou measure to unify the whole country.

The Qing court has been encouraging shaving and making it easy to wear, but a large number of ministers have opposed shaving and easy to wear, causing suspicion and speeding up the Qing court's action to re-issue the shaving order.

In fact, even during the abolition of the shaving order, the Qing court has always encouraged the officials and people to shave their heads, and Dolgon said in his reply to Zhao Xingxing's impeachment of Li Ruolin, "Those who wish to shave their heads will be praised endlessly", and later Li Ruolin was dismissed by Zhao Xingxing when he was asked to stop, and said that "Li Ruolin first shaved his head, and he was hated by the public.

Later, after Zhao Xingxing himself shaved his head, Dolgon also rewarded him with clothes and hats, although Dolgon himself said that "it was not to reward him for shaving his head, but because he dared to speak", but the meaning of encouraging shaving his head was obvious.

Therefore, it seems that the Qing court may have imperceptibly implemented the meaning of shaving hair and making it easy to wear, considering that Shunzhi was still making an edict for the crown dress posture in the tenth year, the Qing court should not be so eager to implement it at first.

However, after Li Ruolin spread that Dolgon had the intention of shaving his hair again, it caused a large number of obedient people to panic, and they all opposed it, which caused Dolgon's suspicion, which should be the direct reason why the Qing court immediately issued a shaving order a few days after learning that Jiangnan was pacified.

The reason why the Qing court was not eager to implement Yifu at first may have been due to the shortage of materials.

After the Qing army entered the customs, there was a shortage of materials in the north, and many things were difficult to handle, and the Qing Dynasty clothing was not found in the mainland, so it was definitely difficult to change for a while, so when the Qing court ordered the change of clothes in July of the second year of Shunzhi, it said, "In the past, the original desire was to change the order, and I was afraid that the price would be expensive, and it was difficult to take measures for a while, so it was postponed to this day."

In the early Qing Dynasty, it was disastrous to enforce the drastic shaving of hair and make it easy to wear, and it was inappropriate to forcibly push it despite the strong opposition of the government and the people, and it was even more wrong to sacrifice massacres to suppress opponents.

The biggest responsibility for this historical tragedy is undoubtedly the supreme ruler of the Qing Dynasty, and those who contributed to the troubles like Li Ruolin certainly played a lot of negative roles, but attributing the main reason to them is to overestimate the role of these people in the formulation of policies in the early Qing Dynasty.

Some people only attribute the shaving of his hair to Sun Zhiqi, but he was just a left-hand waiter in the Ministry of Rites at the time, inferior to Li Ruolin, not to mention those bachelors who dissuaded Dolgon.

There was a lot of controversy involved in the process of the shaving order from its issuance to its cancellation to its re-issuance, and it would seem comical to summarize it as soon as Sun Zhiqi was released and Dolgon approved it.

Some of the ministers who submitted to the Qing dynasty also had some high expectations of the Qing rulers.

For example, Zhao Xingxing mentioned in the recital, "It is said that I am the main alliance of the Qing Dynasty in Zhongxia, and I should urgently pay attention to the principle of imperial cultural relics, and I will enter the emperor and add a crown to the suburbs to show admiration", not only opposing shaving and easy to wear, but also hoping that Dolgon and Shunzhi can add a crown.

Even after the implementation of shaving and changing clothes, there were still ministers who proposed that "it is advisable to reuse the crown for court sacrifices", but of course these proposals were all rejected.

It can be seen that in the Ming and Qing dynasties, there was a cognitive conflict between the rulers of the Qing Dynasty and the ministers of Guishun about the clothing and crown system, and these cognitive conflicts were temporarily suppressed by the Qing court in the early stage because of military problems, giving the officials and people of Guishun an illusion, and even higher expectations, so when the problem resurfaced, the rulers of the Qing court would "be surprised" that there were so many people who opposed shaving and changing clothes, and even made them feel that they had to implement it strongly, which may also be a reason why the Qing court strongly implemented shaving and easy dressing.

The traitors of the Jin merchants and others, and the two things that shaved their hair and changed their clothes after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, were the two things that left the deepest impression on Lord Wei.

Wei Bao's hatred for Jin Shang is far greater than his hatred of the Donglin Party and the Eunuch Party.

It's a pity that the last time the text inventory was carried out, it was mainly concentrated in the Beizhili area, as well as some areas of Shandong and Henan, and was not carried out to Shanxi.

Mainly because Lord Wei's sphere of influence did not reach that far.

And even if it reaches such a distance, if there is no army to maintain it locally, it is useless, and if it is urgent, it is likely to provoke large-scale chaos, provoke the Jin merchants to simply rebel outside the Ming Dynasty, or simply recruit troops and horses, and develop into a separatist force, which is very possible.

Therefore, if you don't want to provoke great changes in the whole history, and you don't want to die more people, many times, many things, Lord Wei can't solve them by force, which is quite troublesome.

There was no way to let the Jizhou army go outside the Great Wall to pick up the men and horses of Inner Khalkha, but Wei Bao also sent people to the camps of the various garrisons in Jizhou to write letters, and he could only use dead horses as live horse doctors.

More than a dozen large and small Jizhou military battalions did not react, but Cao Wenzhao, who had been in contact with Lord Wei before, brought a thousand people out of the customs to respond.

Because Cao Wenzhao's men and horses have been personally rewarded by Lord Wei, Cao Wenzhao is a grateful person and admires Wei Bao's personality.

Wei Bao organized a large army to fight against Jiannu when he arrived in Liaodong, which was very morale-boosting in the eyes of fierce generals like Cao Wenzhao, and even better than Sun Chengzong and Sun Supervisor, who were very loved by the Jiliao border army.

Wei Bao not only rewarded Cao Wenzhao and Cao Wenzhao's soldiers with silver taels, but also increased the number of troops for Cao Wenzhao, so that Cao Wenzhao was upgraded from a battalion officer with 500 people to a battalion officer with 1,000 people.

This is not only to give Cao Wenzhao benefits, but also to Lord Wei has a good understanding of Cao Wenzhao, because the number of soldiers under his command is large, which is equivalent to being promoted in disguise, at least, Cao Wenzhao is more high-end than the guerrilla generals of the same level.

These factors mixed together, so that Cao Wenzhao resolutely went out of the Great Wall.

Cao Wenzhao's 1,000 people have a small number of horses, not all infantry, there are nearly 100 war horses, which is very rare in the Ming border army, in addition to the Jinzhou army of Zu Dashou, as well as the soldiers and horses of Ningyuan City, which is directly controlled by the Jiliao Governor's Office, almost all of them have no war horses, and there are very few, at best, dozens of horses, for those who are officials and generals, and they are not enough to train cavalry.

Therefore, under Wei Bao's side care, Cao Wenzhao's army is not huge, but the equipment is very sophisticated among the Ming border army.

The most important thing is not only that he is well-equipped, Wei Bao knows that Cao Wenzhao is a fierce general in the late Ming Dynasty, and he can even be said to be the first fierce general in the late Ming Dynasty!

Because Cao Wenzhao is not handsome, he cannot be compared with Sun Chengzong, Hong Chengchou, Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting.

These guys are handsome.

There is absolutely no shortage of well-known generals in the Ming Dynasty, and it seems that the more bad the imperial court, the more likely it is to appear as a general.

However, the Qing Dynasty did not produce any famous ministers, famous marshals, and famous generals from beginning to end, which can reflect the Manchu Qing Dynasty in terms of system, which is indeed much more advanced than the Ming Dynasty, and has eliminated many drawbacks in the feudal system, and even swept away the drawbacks of the slavery system.

Speaking of the pinnacle of the feudal system of the Chinese dynasties, there is no need to think about it, it must be the Qing Dynasty, whether it is recognized or not, any dynasty before the Manchu Qing Dynasty is effortless.

When he heard that the battle was ineffective, he was very worried, and he had to take cattle and sheep, old and weak women and children, so he naturally couldn't run fast.

"Father, aren't you going to rescue your brother? They only have 20,000 people, and they may not be able to defeat the 10,000 elite iron horsemen of Jiannu. Ulan Tu Yaqiqige said.

Zhuo Liktu sighed: "It's definitely not going to be able to beat, all of us fighting with Jiannu together, and we may not be able to fight!" That's why I have to go, it's not easy for Jiannu to defeat the 20,000 horses of Zhuotmur, don't worry. ”

"But we're too damaging this way!" Ulan Tuyaqiqige's eyes were red.

"What's the solution? What's the point of talking about that now? If you want to avoid killing, you have to honestly build a slave and not move, so there is no need to agree to Wei Bao's defection. But it has been controlled by Jiannu for a long time, our cattle and sheep have been plundered, our people have been enslaved by Jiannu, and many people have to die every year. Drorictu said as he urged the people around him to leave.

Ulan Tuyaqiqige didn't say anything anymore, secretly sad, could understand how difficult life was for his father and all the tribesmen, and secretly prayed that Wei Bao would not lose the herdsmen of the Inner Khalkha tribes.

If Wei Bao is the same as Jiannu, it is simply too cruel to Nekhalkha.

In fact, after this trip was only one side, Zhuo Liktu bet on Wei Bao, which was also a big gamble!

But the reason why Zorictu is willing to gamble like this, and he is very decisive.

The main reason is that the treasure army can fight with the Jiannu army, and the most important thing is that the treasure army is not afraid of the Eight Banners!

This gave Zoriktu hope.

Also, if he defected to Jiannu and was defeated, Zhuoliktu felt that Nurhachi would not dare to do anything to his own tribe, and at most he would kill himself and his family to apologize.

Therefore, for the sake of the hundreds of thousands of people in Inner Khalkha, Zhuoliktu dared to gamble like this.

More than an hour passed by stop-and-go.

Ulan Tuyaqige suddenly cried out loudly: "Oh, father, it's my brother's people who have returned!" ”

When Driktu heard this, he looked over, and sure enough, he saw the knights of his headquarters chasing after him.

Zorictu hurriedly turned his horse's head to check.

What Zoriktu feared most was to hear that Zortmur had died in battle.

Although the horse leather shroud, since it is on the battlefield, it must be ready to die at any time.

Otherwise, Zorictu would not have let his son go to war.

But after all, he is the eldest son and his heir, and if Zhuo Temur dies at this time, it will undoubtedly be a huge disaster for the clan!

"How's it going? What about Drotmur? Zorictu asked aloud.

"Leader, Zhuo Temur is leading people to block the Eight Banners, we fought and retreated, came first, it was Zhuo Temur who asked us to come first, saying not to fight to the death with the Eight Banners." A centurion-level warrior replied loudly.

When he heard that his son was fine, he was relieved and asked, "How many people have you lost?" Is the damage too big? Why can't you stand it so quickly? ”
