Chapter 122: The Anti-Qing Dynasty in the North**2

"Jiang Xiang should be damned." Dolgon had no idea that in just a month or two, the situation had developed into what it was now.

Hauge's death seems to be a fuse.

Hauge's death caused turmoil within the Eight Banners. It seems that because Dolgon's attention was focused on the internal affairs of the Eight Banners, Jiang Xiang raised troops in Shanxi. It seems that Jiang Xiang's army is just the beginning. After Jiang Xiang raised troops, Shandong, Shanxi, and even some places in Hebei raised troops to rebel against the Qing court.

For a time, beacon fires spread all over the north.

However, although the rebel army is huge. But the main force of the Qing army has not yet been dispatched, and these beacons are all false.

It's just this one thing that also gave Dolgon a lot of help, so under such a stormy situation, Dolgon's authority was trusted, regardless of the complaints of the two yellow flags against Dolgon, and I had to admit that at this time, it was Dolgon who could take on the great responsibility of the Manchu Qing Dynasty instead of Fulin.

Dorgon reacted immediately.

First, collect grain from all over the world. Garrison in various stronghold cities to ensure the safety of these cities. Let the defenders everywhere guard the city and wait for the arrival of the army.

First, there is a shortage of grain in the north, which has already begun to take shape. Second, even Dolgon's efforts to win over the northern gentry had an effect.

Under the tyranny of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, some of the gentry could not bear it, especially the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs for a few years, like the Great Xia, without a war for many years, and the foundation of the Great Xia was quite thick. Although it is stretched, it can still be supported, but it is different on the Manchu side.

All kinds of expropriation and extortion, almost no people are treated as human beings.

But some of the gentry got on the Manchu ship and could no longer get off.

Therefore, when the Manchu Qing Dynasty raised troops in various places, they immediately chose to shrink strategically, but the rebel armies of various ministries did not expand vigorously.

Of course, there are internal problems in the righteous army, although these righteous armies are all anti-Qing uprisings, there are many internal contradictions, some play the banner of Daming, some want to contact Daxia, some play the banner of Dashun, and some play their own banner, it seems that they want to fish in the troubled waters.

The soldiers were the former Ming official army, the remnants of Dashun, and the gentry from all over the country.

These people look at each other and gloat, and they can't work together at all.

Then there was the resistance of some magistrates and the gentry who supported the Qing court.

After making this step, Dorgon began to fight back.

"Azig." Dolgon said: "Shanxi is a vital place, once Shanxi is lost, Shaanxi and Beijing are only connected by the hole, I am afraid that the northwest will also be unstable, so you must fight quickly, and to shock the world." ”

Now the Manchu Qing Dynasty and the Great Xia are in Henan, creating hundreds of miles of no-man's land south of the Yellow River, but after all, Henan's geographical advantages are equally divided with the Xia army, if necessary, the Qing army can fight to Nanyang Mansion and Runing Mansion without much fighting, and the Xia army can also cross this no-man's land and drink the Yellow River.

Therefore, there are only about three major roads connecting Beijing with the northwest, the first is to take the grassland from outside the Guan, directly into northern Shaanxi, there are not many people on this road, the march of the army is not very good, and when Azig marches westward, it almost misses the deadline.

The second way is to go south from Hebei, cross the Yellow River from the north of Luoyang, and enter Shaanxi from Tongguan.

This road is easier to walk. The mobilization of the Qing army mainly took this road.

The third road is to pass through the territory of Shanxi and enter Shaanxi, and if this road is subdivided, it can be divided into several roads. I won't go into all of them.

Among the many rebel armies in the north, Jiang Xiang is the most powerful. Led by Datong, most of the northern Shanxi Province was implicated. If most of Shanxi falls into the hands of Jiang Xiang, the road from Beijing to Shaanxi will only be from Luoyang, and south of Luoyang is Nanyang, which is not just a hole road, which can be easily cut off.

Azig said, "I understand. Azig smiled slightly, a cruel smile appeared in the corner of his eyes, and said, "I will make the surname Jiang pay." ”

Dorgon knew that he had given Azig this order, and with Azig's personality, there were not one or two people who died in Shanxi. But the more so, the more Dorgon knew he couldn't back down.

At the beginning of the troubled times in various places, it was not that there were no ministers who privately advised Dolgon to abolish the harsh government and reassure the people.

But Dolgon flatly refused.

The more critical this moment is, the more we must not retreat, because if we take a step back, these people will take a step closer. Even if it is necessary to retreat, it is not at this time, but after the rebellion of the Quartet on the flat land, it can be retreated. Otherwise, the majesty of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was swept away, how could they dominate the Quartet.

"Dodor." Dolgon said: "The rebellion in Shandong will be handed over to you. However, the main thing for you is not the chaos in Shandong, but to watch the south. Don't let the south go north across the Yellow River. ”

In comparison, Shandong's chaos is far inferior to Shanxi.

However, Shandong's proximity to the two Huai could easily lead the Xia army to the north, so the weight in Dorgon's heart was still above Shanxi. So Dorgon sent his most trusted Dordor out.

Duoduo said: "I understand, I am in Shandong, no matter what happens, the Xia army must not take a step beyond the northeast of the mountain. ”

Dolgon said to King Zheng, "Brother Wang, the Gyeonggi Heavy Land will be handed over to you. ”

It can be said that the most ruthless exploitation by the Manchu Qing Dynasty was not anywhere else, that is, Zhili and other places with Beijing as the center, but the chaos here is compared to the chaos in Shandong. After all, the Manchu army of more than 100,000 was in Beijing.

The chaos in various places is almost a matter of hand.

Pai Zheng Wang is not just to show his attention.

In this way, Dolgon sat in the capital division, and after the three kings each led their men and horses out of Beijing, the chaos in various places was calmed down one by one.

After all, these rebels who temporarily revolted could not be compared with the Manchu Eight Banners at all, and the first to pacify was Zhili, which was because of the problem of the road. However, Azig hit a hard nail in Shanxi.

After all, Datong is an important town on the nine sides of the Ming army, and Jiang Xiang is the former Ming commander-in-chief, first descended to Shun, and then descended to the Qing Dynasty. Azig fought with Jiang Xiang and won several battles.

However, Jiang Xiang retreated into the fortified city of Datong, and Azig was unable to attack it for a while, and the situation fell into a stalemate.

Dolgon seemed to be relieved of this situation, but with a letter from Duoduo, he came to Beijing. Dolgon was suddenly surprised, but it was the news from the south that the Southern Dynasty was moving, and the emperor of the Southern Dynasty had the intention of driving the conquest in person.

How many Xia Jun were involved, Duoduo didn't figure it out for a while, but he used words that poured out the country.

Dorgon momentarily felt a little dizzy.

No matter how much the Manchu Qing Dynasty looked down on the Southern Dynasties, but in the two major wars of Xiangyang and Xuzhou, although the Qing army had the upper hand, they all ended in a draw, and the generals of the Eight Banners did not have one thing, this Southern Dynasty was different from the Ming Dynasty.

At least the army can still fight.

Now that the Manchu Qing Dynasty is in several directions, it is impossible to concentrate its forces, and it has to face the overwhelming of the Xia army.

However, Dolgon is Dolgon after all.

After a moment, it calmed down.

He thought about it again and again, and felt that he might have made some mistakes in attacking Sichuan. Attacking Sichuan and attacking Hubei in a roundabout way, but did not estimate the possibility of the Xia Army's Northern Expedition, which is also a smooth sail since the Qing army entered the customs. Not only Dorgon, but even the kings of the Eight Banners have a little bit of a sense of underestimating the enemy.

At this moment, the emperor of the Southern Dynasty grasped a good season.

He wanted to convene the king's council, but he just thought that Azig, Zilharang, and Dordor were all outside. For a while, I couldn't find the Eight Banners important ministers who could share their worries. The news is also in vain to disturb people's hearts.

Suddenly, a name came to Dorgon's mind.

This person is none other than Hong Chengchou. No matter what Hong Chengchou's character is, there is always talent. At this moment, among the Jingshi, the only person who can solve Dorgon's doubts is Hong Chengchou.

"Scholar Chuanhong." Dorgon said, "Let him come at once." ”

Seeing that Dolgon was in a hurry, the people below did not dare to slack off. Go and invite immediately, Hong Chengchou has always been idle in the Beijing Division. Hearing that Dolgon summoned him in such a hurry, he secretly said in his heart: "Is this the place where I am useful?" ”
