On the other hand, Dolgon was indeed not prepared to punish him severely, as Vice Adjutant Wang had expected.

This year's Dajin soldiers and horses have been beaten badly enough by Chen Xin's mud, and the Jurchens have lost a lot of prime and war horses, but because of the cannon fodder tactics used by the Jin State, the Han army has suffered even more heavy losses.

In addition, after Huang Taiji's death, the nobles of the Jurchen Eight Banners picked their noses and eyes at these Han soldiers, and they have been suppressed miserably enough this year, and Dolgon really doesn't want to see similar things happen again.

Although he hates Huang Taiji to the core, he really admires some of Huang Taiji's strategies and practices.

It's like Huang Taiji's treatment of these Han officials.

In the past, he could not understand the significance of Huang Taiji's reuse of Han officials, and in his opinion, the Jurchen warriors were more trustworthy than the Han people.

However, when Huang Taiji died suddenly, he Dolgon himself finally had no one to suppress, and for the first time he became the councillor Baylor, and after stepping on the level of the highest power in the Jin Kingdom, he finally understood.

Han officials are more enterprising than most of the Jurchen Eight Banner nobles, compared to the Jurchen nobles who are satisfied with a few pieces of cloth and a few ingots of silver, the Han officials can make Dajin more powerful.

Even, it was also a Han official who let him know that Dajin could also join the game of competing for the authority of the world in the Central Plains.

All this, his blood relatives, clansmen, comrades, those Jurchen nobles couldn't think of it at all, and they didn't even dare to think about it, but it was those Han officials who were looked down on by him before, they thought of it.

Not only did he think of it, but also, at the instigation of the Han officials, Huang Taiji did the first time to investigate the reality of the Ming Dynasty.

When he understood the benefits that the Han officials could bring him, he finally understood the viciousness of Huang Taiji's vision and the high level of means. And he, Dorgon, thinks that he is the smartest king of Dajin, and naturally he will not do anything to destroy the Great Wall, so he has a series of means to constantly win over Han officials and Han military banners.

Now, now that he has realized that the Han army has been suppressed too much, which may affect the future development of the Jin Kingdom, he not only can't find an excuse to punish them, but even have to cheer up these people.

So, Dolgon said to a group of Han officials around him: "My Dajin Kingdom, the Holy Ancestor Khan, founded the country with bows and horses, and my Eight Banners Brigade has made a great name with wild waves.

Wherever my army goes, it is invincible. However, this firearm is also a militaristic weapon trapped in Kecheng, and it can't be used without such a good thing, just right, the Han army's flag soldiers are weak, and they can strengthen the practice of firearms, and they can't win with gold.

Among my Dajin, whether it is Zhushen (the name of the Jurchens), Mongolians, or Han Chinese, they are all the people of my Dajin, and Benbeile will treat them equally. Whenever you have meritorious deeds, Benbel will not hesitate to reward them. ”

The Han official surnamed Gao who came out to relieve the siege before, after hearing what Dolgon said at this moment, immediately took the lead and knelt down, and said loudly, "The slave has thanked Lord Belle and will serve Lord Belle to the death." ”

All the Han officials present shouted these words together.

Dolgon looked at the Han official surnamed Gao with satisfaction, this person is really good at something, taking advantage of such an opportunity, he immediately rushed to trap a group of wavering Han officials.

He raised his hand weakly, let all the Han officials who had already expressed their allegiance stand up, and looked around at the surrounding artillery and birds, and finally, he gave his final instructions lightly.

"It's approaching the end of the year now, everyone has worked hard all year, let's go home and reunite with your relatives, and when you come next year, ······"

He looked at the empty place in the south, his eyes suddenly became sharp, as if there was a murderous aura in the air, and said, "By next year, you should be more diligent and loyal to your duties." Glory and wealth with Benbele. ”

······

Time is in a hurry, the new year is coming soon, and the Kingdom of China is also the second time that the whole country celebrates the arrival of the Spring Festival.

It is difficult to determine when the New Year's custom originated, but it is generally believed that it originated from the ancestor worship activities at the beginning and end of the year in the Yin Shang period.

The Spring Festival is the most important and solemn traditional festival of the Chinese nation. The first day of the first lunar month is the beginning of the year, and the first or middle of the first lunar month, most of the time it happens to be the beginning of spring (a small part of the time the beginning of spring is in the second half of the lunar month), and the first day of the first lunar month is now named the Spring Festival.

The final determination of the specific time of the festival is believed to be related to the fact that this time has the least impact on agricultural work. The last day of the lunar year (the 30th day of the month and the 29th day of the small month) is called "Chinese New Year's Eve".

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, the whole family reunites to eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner (the last meal of the lunar year), and after the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, there is a custom of staying up Chinese New Year's Eve (keeping the year) and issuing pressure money, which means that it is observed from the last day of the lunar year to the first day of the next year, so the Spring Festival is also called the New Year.

Although Chen Xin no longer has the company of his old relatives here, he has also found a new partner with whom he can spend his life and spend this happy Spring Festival together.

After this more glorious year, the whole country was full of laughter, singing and dancing.

Even the turbulent Daming side fell into a short period of calm because of the Spring Festival.

Of course, no matter how happy and reluctant it is, time will never stand still, and it is still flowing rapidly.

After the New Year, Chen Xin was also busy again.

Of course, he has the Cabinet, the Privy Council, the General Staff, the Grand Court, the National Security Council, and other highest administrative bodies of the kingdom to help him handle various things, and he does not need to worry too much.

However, many important things can only take effect after he agrees to it himself, or signs it, so just after fifteen, he was invited out of Anya's side by a group of adjutants.

No way, the matter was too important, he had to kiss goodbye to Anya, who was blushing, and came to the office.

There, the head of the Ministry of War, the assistant of the Ministry of Finance, the assistant of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the representatives of the Ministry of Transport, Commerce, and the Administration of Overseas Territories were already waiting for his arrival.

"What's going on? So many people came early in the morning? Chen Xin asked a question while motioning to his attendants to serve tea and pastries, now that his authority had penetrated throughout the country, he no longer needed to maintain a dignified posture to intimidate his subordinates.

On the contrary, he should work hard to establish a pro-people image to reverse the color of his military background. After all, the kingdom has now passed the moment of danger that could be destroyed at any time.

Although the current kingdom still needs to continue to strengthen its military strength, the focus of its work must no longer be military, but should develop in the economic and cultural aspects.

And a monarch who is too strong in military color will cause a certain degree of interference to the thinking of his subjects in this critical period of national policy adjustment. Therefore, being close to the people is now a necessary means of rectifying the situation.
