Chapter 44: Miao Ce Hong Chengchou (Three Watches Completed
"That Tan Tai Tai is not a thing, he even ignored the order of the regent, and ran out of the Weining camp as soon as he heard some military merits, but was ambushed by Ming Jun!" Dordor looked disgusted.
Azig also wanted to say a few words to vent his anger, but his heart turned around but he couldn't say anything, so he had to snort and gasp, and said angrily: "Go back and kill this Tan Tai!" ”
"I've said it a few times, this is the time to employ people! Unless you two can fly back to Shenyang with your own troops now, ......" Dolgon said worriedly, "We really want to fall for Zhu Cihong's calculations." It seems that the Ming people also have a fine work in Shengjing, and this fine work is also very powerful, and it can spread the news to Tan Tai and lure Tan Tai out of Shengjing City. Otherwise, Tan Tai would not have dared to rush out of the city if he knew our military order. ”
Duoduo suddenly understood, and said, "In this way, there are also handsome talents in the hands of the Ming people." I really don't know if it's that Tiger Dawei or Xu Yanqi. But these two people have never been so powerful before, how can they be so brilliant under Zhu Cihong's hands. not only raided all the way to the Weining camp, but also lured out Tan Tai. Having said that, as the regent said, we still have to appease people's hearts for now, so that Tan Tai can live in the city to defend the city. Otherwise, Prince Su ......"
Of course, Shenyang at this time had to be well guarded by the Manchus, and they would wait for Dolgon's reinforcement to sweep away the Royal Guards.
But the Manchus were not monolithic, and everyone had their own selfishness. For example, Tan Tai's selfishness is to make achievements and prove his own ability. In addition to Tan Tai, it is natural that Haoge still has the strength to defend Shengjing, and he nominally commands the remnants of the Zhenglan Banner and the Zhenghuang Banner that have suffered heavy losses. It is now the remaining general of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in Shengjing.
Dolgon knew that Tan Tai had the intention to change the dock, so he could naturally make Tan Tai move. But relatively speaking, it is necessary to give a death order to Hauge not to go out of the city to fight. It's hard to say how effective it will be. The general will not be subject to the orders of the monarch outside, and in turn, the Shunzhi Emperor at this moment is the same in Shengjing City. Haoge instigated Emperor Shunzhi to let him allow him to attack, and it was difficult to say that Shenyang was safe.
Compared to Tan Tai, Haugna's desire to prove that he is stronger than Dolgon is even more enthusiastic.
"What is the ...... right now" Azig was a little confused, he was really confused, and he shook his head with a rush of confusion in his head. It's even more viscous and dizzy.
"You'll have to figure it out......" Dorgon stood up and looked out the window at the pouring rain, only to see a man striding through the cloister.
Dorgon recognized the comer. Soon, with the sound of footsteps, the guard outside the door came in and whispered, "Your Highness, Master Hong asks to see you." ”
"That's right. How did I forget about him! Dorgon was both surprised and annoyed.
Wait. Hong Chengchou walked into the house and didn't mention it. Dolgon carefully looked at this subordinate who followed the army back to the Ming Dynasty, looked at the other party's increasing gray hair and wrinkles, and sighed very much: "Master Hong has really worked hard for you all the way. But who in the army has neglected you? Just tell me, I'm Dolgon's decision for you!" ”
Hong Chengchou was preparing to organize the prepared words at this moment, and when he heard Dolgon's greetings at this moment, his nose suddenly became sour, and he seriously bowed. Only then did he get up and said, "Your Majesty thank the regent for his care." His Majesty is still good in the army, but he has heard some military information. I was impatient and confused, and I had some words and plans, and I wanted to present it in front of the regent's palace. ”
"Good, good. What Master Hong has in mind, just leave it to me! Dolgon laughed, a faint anticipation in his heart.
Hong Chengchou heard this, pondered for a while, and said: "Your Majesty heard that there have been rumors in the army recently that there have been changes in Liaodong, and the large army is not moving forward here. For this reason, there is a plan to solve the regent's worries. ”
Dolgon's brows froze, but he quickly stretched out, looked at Hong Chengchou and said, "Master Hong's hearing is right. Zhenghuangqi Tan Tai heard that the Ming army rushed to the Weining camp of the Taizi River, so he sent troops without authorization, and was defeated by the Ming army and retreated to the Beijing division. ”
One is not light and the other is not small, if it is used to describe the results of their own battles, then of course it can be understood by modesty. But at this moment, it is used on the results of the enemy's army, which can only be said to have a lot to hide, and the truth is even more disastrous.
"Your Majesty has a plan, but I don't dare to talk nonsense until I have a concern. He also asked the regent to allow his subordinates to peruse the war report. Hong Chengchou said again.
Dolgon didn't say much, and quickly pulled out his sleeve and took out a battle report from it, looked at Hong Chengchou and said, "Bachelor Hong, look at it." ”
Hong Chengchou read it carefully, and when he reached one of the passages, he suddenly read it out loud: "Zhenghuang Qigushan Ezhen Tan Tai braved the rain to return to Beijing......
Thinking of this, Hong Chengchou closed his voice, and then read it carefully and silently twice, then turned around and asked Duoduo: "Dare to ask Prince Yu, when is it raining in this Ji Town?" ”
"It's been two days." Duoduo didn't know what to do, but he answered cooperatively.
Hong Chengchou smiled and said: "Your Majesty also has some understanding of the weather in October in Beijing, and later passed through Liaodong, and also understood the climate of Liaodong. His subordinates watched the weather in Beijing, and expected that they would wait a day or two, and the rain would be clear in the capital. But the Jingshi is in the south, Liaodong is in the north, and the clouds and rain go from south to north, but it shows that the rain in October in Liaodong may not stop in a day or two. In addition, there are many official roads in Beijing, and the road is convenient, even if it rains heavily for a while, when the rain stops for two or three days, the road will be dry and you can walk. But the land of Liaodong ......"
The ghost place in Liaodong is not the Northeast of later generations, with developed industry and relatively complete infrastructure. At this time, Liaodong is really a poor and remote country, and after the Jianzhou Tartars occupied it, they have not done any good things to build bridges and pave roads, just like the wild primeval forest. A heavy rain poured down, even if the Royal Guards Corps recognized the official way. But how can the official road of Liaodong thirty years ago still be used now?
Even modern highways are too dilapidated to march after thirty years, not to mention the poor road construction and almost non-existent road maintenance in the Ming Dynasty.
"If my estimate is correct. This Ming army should be an urgent march, trying to threaten Shengjing with an expeditionary attack to achieve the goal of encircling Wei and saving Zhao. As long as the weather was as heavy as ever, and the Ming army was delayed for a few days, it was enough to make the Ming army fall into the dilemma of lack of food and strength. At this time, I sent a letter to the Qing Dynasty and asked the Ming court to kill the generals of the expedition to negotiate peace. In this way, the regent only needs to pass this letter to Liaodong as it is, and the danger of Shengjing will be naturally solved. Hong Chengchou talked and laughed freely, as if he was lecturing in the academy, and he talked eloquently. is also familiar with the imperial court, digging out his thoughts, and coming up with clever ideas.
It's a pity that they were all used on their former compatriots. (To be continued.) )
