Chapter 436: The imperial commanders personal expedition
Hong Chengchou, Fan Wencheng and Ning Wanwo came to Prince Rui's Mansion together again.
After kneeling down to greet Dorgon, I smiled and asked, "Master, is there any good news in Xuzhou?"
"I have no good news here, but two bad news." Dorgon's mood has completely calmed down, but his face still looks a little gloomy.
Hong Chengchou and others were stunned when they heard this.
The master's mood is a bit wrong today.
At that moment, Hong Chengchou asked cautiously: "Master, what happened?"
"That's right." Dorgon sorted out his words, and then said, "I just received a report from Luo Yangxing, saying that a Ming army of about 5,000 people along the way captured the mouth of Dagukou."
"Ah?" Hong Chengchou was stunned for a moment.
This was so sudden, I was completely unprepared.
It's scary enough that the Ming army dared to take the initiative to attack, but it was even more scary if they dared to travel thousands of miles to attack Dagukou. Where is Dagukou? This is the throat of the capital! It's a fatal place!
"Are the three gentlemen surprised? Do you not believe it?"
Dorgon grinned and said: "When I first heard the news, my reaction was exactly the same as yours. I couldn't believe it. How could this be possible? Chongzhen, a sheep, actually wanted to eat me, a tiger. Then
No more chaos? When did the sheep become so aggressive?"
After Ning Wan, I still couldn't believe it, so I asked in a low voice: "Master, could it be that Luo Yangxing made a mistake?"
"It's unmistakable. Luo Yangxing saw these with his own eyes." Dorgon waved his hand and said, "Besides, only one of the dozen or so bannermen stationed in Dagukou Town escaped. This can't be wrong."
Hong Chengchou and the three of them looked at each other in shock, and then they believed that this was indeed the case.
"This is really unbelievable." Hong Chengchou sighed.
"Yes." Fan Wencheng also said, "How could Chongzhen have such courage?"
"Unbelievable?" Dorgon was still able to laugh at this time.
"Three gentlemen, what's even more unbelievable is that Liaodong also sent an urgent shipment of 800 miles."
"Liaodong also sent an urgent shipment of eight hundred miles?" Hong Chengchou lost his voice, "Master, what is going on?"
Dorgon laughed and said: "General Ye Keshu of Shengjing said in the Tang newspaper that just three nights ago, the same night that Dagukou was lost, the Ming army, which numbered about 10,000 people along the way, captured Gaizhou Guards!"
"What, there is another Ming army that captured Gaizhou Guards?"
"Master, this is not true, is it? How is this possible?"
"Is Chongzhen crazy? The troops are divided into two groups this time?"
Hong Chengchou and the other three were not surprised this time, but were completely shocked and stunned.
Such Chongzhen made them feel very strange and also made them feel inexplicably lost.
"It's even more unexpected, isn't it? That's right, it was unexpected." Dorgon said with a smile, "Chongzhen is a madman, but we are normal people. How can normal people predict the thoughts of a madman?"
After a long while, Hong Chengchou and the other three finally recovered from the huge shock.
After they came to their senses, Hong Chengchou and the other two people couldn't help but break into cold sweats again.
"Master, Chongzhen's actions are extremely vicious." Fan Wencheng said with a dark face.
"I know, I know." Dorgon said with a smile, "Just as I regarded Xuzhou as the hunting ground of the Eight Banners and did not allow the Ming army to calmly operate the Huanghuai defense line, Chongzhen also wanted to consume the Qing Dynasty through Dagukou and Gaizhou Guards.
national power."
"So, Dagukou must be taken back." Hong Chengchou said solemnly, but he did not mention the state guard.
"Yes, Dagukou must be recaptured." Fan Wencheng continued, "Otherwise, if the Ming army sends troops from Dagukou, they can reach Beijing in three days. The cavalry can reach Beijing in one day and night!"
Ning Wan and I also agree: "If we can't recapture Dagukou, our Qing Dynasty will not be able to accomplish anything in the future. Don't think about sending troops to conquer the south or west again."
"Gaizhou Guards wants to take it back." Dorgon said quietly.
"If we don't recapture the Gaizhou Guard, the consequences will be even more disastrous."
Obviously, Dorgon had seen the intention of Chongzhen's move.
However, Hong Chengchou and the others held different opinions on Gaizhou Guards.
Hong Chengchou said: "Master, Dagukou is a key point in the capital. It must be recaptured, and it must be recaptured as soon as possible, but the Gaizhou Guards do not need to pay attention to it."
"Hong Chengchou, do you know what you are talking about?"
Dorgon's eyes suddenly turned cold when he looked at Hong Chengchou, even implying murderous intent.
Dorgon didn't believe that Hong Chengchou couldn't see Chongzhen's intention of sending troops to seize the Gaizhou Guards, but Hong Chengchou actually told him that the Gaizhou Guards should be ignored, so what are your intentions?
Do you wish that we Manchus would be trapped in the pass and the whole army would be annihilated?
However, Hong Chengchou looked at Dorgon calmly and said sternly: "Master, I know what you are worried about, but what I want to say is that Xiang Yu finally destroyed the Qin Dynasty by breaking the cauldron and sinking the boat, and Han Xin won the war between Yan and Zhao with a last-ditch battle.
The land, so the master must also be determined to fight against the odds to destroy Nanming!"
Hearing this, Dorgon frowned and his face showed deep thought.
After a pause, Hong Chengchou said again: "So, if the Ming army captured the Gaizhou Guard, let them capture the Gaizhou Guard. We, the Qing Dynasty, don't care about it at all. Since Chongzhen is willing to waste precious troops and scarce resources to intercept
Let them take care of the retreat of our Qing Dynasty. We, the Qing Dynasty, only need to concentrate all our troops and resources on the Huanghuai battlefield!"
"What Hengjiu said is absolutely true." Fan Wencheng and Ning Wanwo agreed in unison, "Master, think twice."
Dorgon looked at Hong Chengchou deeply, and after a long while he straightened his face and said: "Hengjiu, you are right, there is no turning back when you shoot your bow. Since our Qing Dynasty has entered the pass, we have set out to unify the world."
If we are on a journey, there is absolutely no reason to stop midway. At this time, we can only move forward and not retreat."
"My master is wise." Hong Chengchou let out a sigh of relief.
Fan Wencheng and Ning Wanme looked at each other with excited expressions.
Although Chongzhen, the dog emperor, has really been reborn, fortunately Dorgon is also a wise and powerful hero, so it is still unclear who will win in the battle between the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Dorgon added: "The Ming army that captured the mouth of Dagu is indeed a dagger at my throat, but it must be done as soon as possible. It's been pulled out. This time I want to conquer Dagukou in person."
While he was talking, a figure suddenly came in from outside the Nuan Pavilion.
It was Fulin who came in, and asked Dorgon innocently: "Huang Ama, can you take your son with you?"
"Your Majesty?" Dorgon was stunned for a moment and said speechlessly, "If you don't study in Qianqing Palace, what are you doing here?"
Hong Chengchou, Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan quickly rolled their sleeves and knelt down on one knee to say hello to Fulin: "I will bow to the emperor. Long live the emperor. Long live the emperor."
"Pingshen." Fulin raised his hand to signal Hong Chengchou and the others to stand up.
He also said to Dorgon: "Several gentlemen and Su Mo'er all told my ministers that it is better to read thousands of books than to travel thousands of miles, and to travel thousands of miles is not as good as reading countless people, and the battlefield is the best place to read people. , so I want to follow Huang Ama to the battlefield and have a good experience on the battlefield."
Dorgon couldn't refuse.
"Then, have you asked your mother about this?"
Fulin responded respectfully: "Eniang also agreed."
"Okay." Dorgon said helplessly, "Then you go back and prepare. We will set off on time at Maozhen tomorrow. If you are late, Emperor Amma will not wait for you."
"I accept the decree." Fulin left happily.
Watching Fulin leave, Hong Chengchou asked again: "Master, although Dagukou does not have a solid wall or a deep trench surrounding the city, the Ming army carries red cannons after all. Do you think we should recall some Eight Banners Manchurians from Xuzhou?" ?Otherwise, it would be very difficult to accomplish anything by relying solely on the Eight Banners Han Army or the Green Camp."
As a Han Chinese, Hong Chengchou knew very well that the Eight Banners Han Army's combat effectiveness was good, but the Green Camp troops were newly reorganized or had not been new for a long time, so their willingness to fight was not high.
Guan Ningjun like Wu Sangui is even in a mood.
Therefore, there must be Eight Banners Manchurians monitoring the formation.
At present, the 80,000 bannermen of the Eight Banners Manchuria have gone to the Xuzhou front line.
There are only 10,000 flag soldiers left in Beijing. If these 10,000 flags are to be stationed in Beijing, they must not be moved lightly. Therefore, some Eight Banners can only be transferred back to Manchuria from the Xuzhou front line.
"No need." Dorgon refused.
"This time I will only take the Eight Banners Han Army and the Green Camp to Dagukou."
…
Forbidden City, Nuan Pavilion of Cining Palace.
Bumu Butai is packing Fulin's luggage.
Although Bumubutai came up with this idea herself, she felt inexplicably flustered when she thought that her young son was about to embark on the battlefield. She only had Fulin, her son.
There are no eyesight in the battle formation. If something goes wrong...
Bumbutai simply can't imagine how he will live the rest of his life?
"Mom, don't worry." Fulin advised, "I'll be fine."
"Well, E Niang is not worried, E Niang is happy." Bumbutai turned his face away and wiped away his tears, and said with a smile, "I am happy that our little emperor of the Xinjieluo family has finally grown up, just like Horqin. The young eagle above the grassland has finally shed its down, and is about to spread its wings and fly for nine days."
Fulin nodded and asked again: "Mother, what should I pay attention to?"
Bumbutai warned without thinking: "See more, learn more and do more. Do whatever the regent asks you to do, but remember to talk less when discussing matters. When the regent asks you, don't say anything, just say yes."
You are here to learn and practice, everything is decided by the regent, remember?"
Fulin said solemnly: "My son, please remember E Niang's teachings."
Seeing Fulin's serious face, Bumubutai really relaxed. The emperor has really grown up and can understand the meaning of what she said. It's great.
Then he turned his attention to a palace maid next to him.
This palace maid is in her early twenties and quite pretty.
"Su Mo'er, you should also go with the emperor."
"You must take good care of the emperor's diet and daily life."
Su Mo'er said respectfully: "I will obey the Emperor's decree."
