523 Infighting

After Emperor Chongzhen announced his will, these people fell into silence.

This matter is related to the question of where they will live for the rest of their lives, and it is a major choice in their lives, and it is reasonable not to answer it immediately.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen then turned his head and instructed Hong Chengchou to ask him for specific arrangements to help him.

"Your Majesty, Wechen has thought about it, these soldiers have quite high combat power, and Wechen is ready to be incorporated into the Guanning Army." Hong Chengchou had already thought about it, and immediately replied, "In the past few years, Weichen has been committed to cultivating land from Shanhaiguan to Ningyuan, without the harassment of Jianyu, the harvest is okay, and it is not a problem to support 20,000 soldiers." ”

In the past, every autumn harvest season, Jianyu would come to grab grain. At that time, the Ming army's combat strength was not good, and it could only defend the city, so if Jianyu came, he could only watch Jianyu harvest the wheat fields outside the city. Later, the harvest was early, and the yield was much less. But even so, Jianyu will come in advance, so that all the food and salary of the Guanning army will be transported from the Guannei.

However, since the rise of Emperor Chongzhen and the beginning of the continuous battle victories against Jianyu, Jianyu has no time to come to Guanning again, especially to go deep into the front line of Ningyuan Mountain Customs to grab grain. When Sun Chuanting served as the governor of Jiliao, he re-cut the grain fields from Jiangmen, and the military households knew that they were planting for themselves, and their enthusiasm was improved. In addition, Hong Chengchou will buy people's hearts, not to mention, the grain harvest from Shanhaiguan to Ningyuan is more than expected.

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he couldn't help but be very pleased, especially in this era of food scarcity, it was even more happy that there was an unexpected joy in grain production.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen issued another decree to follow Hong Chengchou's arrangement, and in addition, he also told Hong Chengchou that the Guanning army could go all the way to clear the remnants of Jianyu, and finally converge with Lu Xiangsheng to Haizhou, which would cause enough pressure on the Jianyu after Anshan Yibao.

As for Wu Sangui's department, Emperor Chongzhen let him stay in the Guanning army, temporarily under the command of Hong Chengchou, after all, the lack of enough elites in the Guanning army is unbelievable.

After finishing these, Emperor Chongzhen cordially condoled Kong Youde, personally pardoned him for the sin of the previous army rebellion and surrender to Jianlu, praised his merits this time, and after the merit was reversed, he was named the deputy general of Jinzhou of the Guanning Army.

And Kong Youde's family members went to Beijing to live with him, and Emperor Chongzhen would reward him with a set of mansions, in addition, Kong Tingxun had reached the age of studying, and he also let him enter the palace to become the prince's companion.

Kong Youde was originally just a general in the Dongjiang Army, but now that he has been promoted, his son can become the prince's companion, he is still a little hanging, and finally completely let go, and immediately returned to the emperor, swore to serve his life, and killed all the prisoners.

I have to say that if it is another emperor, it is absolutely necessary to guard against leaving the elite outside, especially to deal with a general like Kong Youde who has a history of rebellion. However, Emperor Chongzhen did not do it, and continued to entrust him with important tasks, which is very different from most emperors.

In this regard, Emperor Chongzhen actually understood it very well in his heart. Because he has an eavesdropping system in hand, he is not afraid that the real power generals outside will have different intentions. There is no need to be like the emperor of the Song Dynasty, the precautions against the generals, it is simply their own hands and feet tied with ropes first, and then let them go to war with the enemy, which is stricter than the prevention of thieves!

Since the Ming Dynasty, especially after the founding of the country, the rise of civil officials has a lot to do with this factor.

However, Emperor Chongzhen was not afraid. If this is the case, then what are you going to do to expand the territory, now the original territory is already large enough, and only when you have enough to eat and support the land will you go to the West to grab the colony. It's so far away, what if you rebel?

This concern may also be related to the fact that the emperors of ancient China were not keen on expanding their territory. Because China itself is very large, it can be regarded as the ultimate that can be controlled in today's transportation state. If you expand further, as long as the imperial court is not a little stronger, the remote territory will be easy to lose. One of the best examples is the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty.

Emperor Chongzhen is different from all other emperors, he has an eavesdropping system in his hands, and he knows the future historical trend, and he knows that globalization is the way out of the future. In addition, there is a very important one, that is, he Emperor Chongzhen has used enough examples to prove that he Emperor Chongzhen led the army to fight, invincible, invincible, and invincible, and the prestige thus established invisibly intimidated all the generals and made them dare not have different intentions.

This point, if Emperor Han Xian knew, he would be very envious. He has no soldiers, no power, and no ability, so he can only be coerced by the Son of Heaven to order the princes to become an ornament. If Emperor Chongzhen is replaced, Cao Cao will only be a capable minister who rules the world.

Emperor Chongzhen stayed in Jinzhou for two days, during which he even met with representatives of the people of Jinzhou and expressed his condolences to them on the front line of the prisoners and the days when they were harassed by the captives. At the same time, just like the promise he made to the people of the northwest, he also made a promise to the people here in Jinzhou. In the future, he will ensure that they will never again be spared the scourge of war. It won't be long before he can raise enough grain and grass materials, and Emperor Chongzhen will personally conquer Liaodong again and completely quell the rebellion.

In addition, in front of these people, he explained to Hong Chengchou an important purpose of his visit. It is to abolish the military household system in the Guanning Army, and all men, over 18 years old and under 45 years old, must serve as soldiers, that is, the national military service system.

At this point, Emperor Chongzhen introduced the advance situation in the northwest and told them that since the implementation of this, the northwest side has not been harassed by the Mongol Tatars. Now the Guanning army must also do the same, at least before the complete elimination of Jianyu, it is also necessary to implement this system, so as to maximize the combat power of Guanning.

In this regard, Hong Chengchou, as a literati, is a little resistant, because the emperor is even counted as scholars, although there are not many scholars on the front line of Guanning, but this trend is very bad, and he thinks it is very possible to implement it in other places.

However, Hong Chengchou, as the governor of Jiliao, welcomed this initiative. Because in this way, it is equivalent to his subordinates, and all the people are soldiers, then Guan Ning's combat power will be greatly strengthened, and he will no longer be a spectator in the future.

In addition, the most important point is that Emperor Chongzhen has won successive battles, and his prestige at this time has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so after a little hesitation in Hong Chengchou's heart, he did not object at all.

As a result, the national military service system was also implemented on the front line of Guanning.

After finishing these, before Emperor Chongzhen prepared to return to Beijing, the people who were originally plundered to Liaodong were also counted and handed to the emperor.

Among the more than 20,000 people, more than 10,000 chose to stay in Liaodong. The reason is also noted in this statistic, when most of them were captured by Jian, the entire hometown, and even the surrounding forts, were gone. And their seven aunts and eight aunts are often within a radius of dozens of miles, so it can be said that they have no relatives in the Guannei.

Most of them did not have any grain fields in the Guannai, and they came from tenants. The desire for land, as long as it is the people of the Ming Dynasty, it is naturally needless to say. Therefore, staying outside the border and being rewarded with double the grain fields and money is enough temptation for them.

In this regard, the officials of the statistics have asked, saying that Liaodong is barren, even if it is double the grain field, it can't reach the Guannei, why can't you think about it, or stay outside the Guan?

In this regard, those people do not agree, after experiencing the cultivation of the Liaohe Plain, they have realized that the reason why Liaodong is barren is only that the Jianyu will not serve. They believe that as long as they work hard, the grain harvest here in Liaodong will definitely not be less.

Emperor Chongzhen knows this best. In later generations, the Northeast was the big granary. The plains produced the most grain in the country. In this era, although due to climate, seeds, farming techniques, etc., it could not reach the output of later generations. But no matter what, in this era of horizontal comparison, as long as you work hard, I believe that the harvest will not be less.

All in all, Liaodong is actually a treasure land, there are cultivated fields, mines, and oil fields, but there is only a lack of people who know these and hard-working people to be their masters.

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen met their requirements, and then took the other people who still wanted to return to the customs to return to Beijing together.

When he set off, he sent the statistics of these people into the customs first, and asked the magistrate to look for their relatives, tell them the good news, and let them go to Beijing to meet the rescued relatives.

…………

Jianyu's side is completely opposite to the situation of Daming. The defeat sparked a tense infighting.

Haoge fled as soon as possible, he didn't even stop in Haizhou, and went straight to Shengjing.

Yue Tuo, who came later, heard the news, and did the same, crossed Haizhou without entering, and also went straight to Shengjing.

When Dolgon heard it, he probably guessed Hauge's purpose, and hurriedly asked Duoduo to rush to Shengjing, while burning Haizhou, which he knew could not be defended, and arranging troops to garrison Anshan Post Fort. Once this place is lost, the Ming army will be able to drive straight into Liaoyang and Shengjing.

For this reason, Dolgon also explained to the remaining general Ying Erdai that the Ming army had powerful firearms, but the trench could effectively reduce the power. Be sure to take defensive measures, and in addition, let him organize manpower to destroy all the official roads leading to Liaoyang.

In this way, if the Ming army breaks through Anshan Post Fort, it will not be able to quickly advance to Liaoyang, which can give Shengjing more time to prepare.

After all this was done, Dorgon led the army and hurried back to Shengjing.

On the way, he had already received a lot of news. knew that Kong Youde had indeed taken refuge in the Ming Kingdom a long time ago, and received Wu Sangui's 3,000 horsemen, not only rescued the more than 20,000 Han slaves, but also burned all the grain that could not be taken away.

With this little force, he threatened Shengjing and burned all the Zhuangzi within a radius of 100 miles, and the Manchurians, no matter who they were, were all killed under Shengjing City. The ashes of my father were not only scattered, but also trampled. In the end, before reinforcements arrived, they slipped away.

Hauge was the first to arrive at Shengjing and sent troops to surround the palace. Although he was stopped by Aobai, he persuaded Aobai that he was also the son of the former emperor, and he did not want to take his brother's throne, but only asked the queen mother to remove Dolgon from the position of regent. The reason is simple, the Qing Dynasty is under the leadership of Dolgon, and it is about to end.

Ao Bai Yidong agreed with his statement, and among the eight banners of the Qing Dynasty, the two strongest yellow flags began to cooperate, but Bumu Butai had not yet let go.

After Yue Tuo rushed back to Shengjing, Ao Bai immediately went to woo him. And judging from the news that came, Yue Tuo seemed to agree. Currently, they are confronting Dodor, who has rushed back.

Each of these messages made Dorgon very angry. He consciously had a clear conscience, and he really did his best for the Qing Dynasty, but he didn't expect to be treated like this.

In any case, he certainly did not want to be seized of power. In fact, he couldn't tolerate being dominated by Hauge's kind of goods. Therefore, he led his troops back to Shengjing to seek justice for himself.

What Dolgon didn't know was that when the situation in Shengjing was tense and an internal strife could break out at any time, Dai Shan, who was seriously ill and could not serve the council, seemed to have improved his situation and immediately called Yue Tuo over.

Before Yue Tuo arrived at the bedroom, all the servants along the way knelt and wept, and the old housekeeper who had watched Yue Tuo grow up since he was a child hurriedly received Yue Tuo, and urged with tears: "Young master, the master forced the shaman to give him a secret medicine, and now it is back to light, and it is too late to go, I am afraid that it will ...... I'm afraid ......"

To be honest, I heard that Dai Shan wanted to see him, but Yue Tuo was actually reluctant to come, although they were father and son, they didn't conspire with each other, and there was nothing to say. At this time, call him and think about it with his toes, and there will definitely be nothing good to say.

However, at this time, Yue Tuo heard that Dai Shan's life was not long in coming, and suddenly, I don't know why, he still sped up his pace and hurried over.

As soon as he arrived at the door, he heard Dai Shan's intermittent angry voice: "It's still ...... Haven't you come yet? Fast...... Hurry up and rush, or ...... Otherwise, the king will die...... Blind ......"

"No need to rush, this king has arrived!" Yue Tuo listened, his face gloomy, and he strode into the room, and said at the same time.

He happened to see a shaman waiting outside, staring at him with sharp eyes, so frightened that the shaman didn't even dare to raise his head.

When Yue Tuo's voice sounded, the room suddenly fell silent, and then Dai Shan's voice sounded with a hint of surprise: "Hurry up...... Hurry up and get up! ”

The maid lifted the curtain and bowed to the side. Yue Tuoda stepped inside, and at first glance, he saw Dai Shan, who had just been helped up and leaning against the bed, and he was stunned at this glance.

It's been more than a month since he saw him, and he can barely recognize his own father.
