Chapter 646 Strategies for War and Defense

While the ministers were in shock and doubt, a young eunuch hurriedly arrived.

"There are edicts, pronunciation of sound pictures, Gong Adai, Tu Lai, Ta Zhan, Tan Tai, Yabulan..."

The Manchu military ministers whose names were called by the young eunuch immediately came out one after another. Baiyin Tu stood at the first place without hesitation, and Gong Adai waited in a row behind him. All of them, without exception, were former ministers of the two yellow flags.

The little eunuch called out to a long list of people, and finally shouted in a high-pitched voice: "Enter the palace immediately to see me."

Not long after Bai Yin Tu and the old ministers of the Two Yellow Banners went in, they came out of the Meridian Gate again. Everyone looked at Bai Yin Tu and the old ministers of the Two Yellow Banners again, but found that their expressions were completely different.

Before entering just now, Baiyintu and others looked worried.

But at this moment, Baiyintu and the others were in high spirits and full of enthusiasm.

Some familiar Manchu ministers asked them what was going on, but Baiyintu and the others refused to say a word and hurriedly left the Forbidden City and returned to their respective defense areas.

Baiyintu and the others actually followed Fulin's decree to restrain the two white flags.

Dorgon died suddenly and violently. After the news spread, the bannermen of the two white flags would definitely be in commotion. It was said that the Baya La soldiers from Prince Rui's palace had cut Concubine Li into pieces with swords.

Because these Baya soldiers believed that Concubine Li had murdered Dorgon.

At this time, if there were no restraints by generals like Bai Yintu and others, the Two White Banners could easily lead to a mutiny, and once a mutiny did occur, the Qing Dynasty would be in big trouble.

The Ming army stationed outside the city would definitely not miss such an opportunity.

So Fulin, the little emperor, knows how to prioritize things.

Immediately, another young eunuch came out quickly to deliver the message: "Xuan, the Minister of Household Affairs, Ying'erdai, comes to see you."

Not long after Ying'erdai entered, another young eunuch trotted out to deliver the message: "Xuan, Qi Chongge, a bachelor of Hongwen Academy, Ning Wan, and Fan Wencheng, a bachelor of the Secretariat Academy, come to see me!"

Qi Chongge, Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan quickly followed the eunuch into the palace.

After Ning Wan, I was a little behind and looked at Fan Wencheng, who nodded slightly in response.

With such a small movement, the two people had already completed an exchange of opinions. Ning Wanme reminded Fan Wencheng not to interfere in the emperor's family affairs, and Fan Wencheng replied that I had never wanted to interfere.

In other words, in just this moment, the two of them had switched their allegiance to Fulin.

This is normal. For them, there is no essential difference between loyalty to Dorgon and loyalty to Fulin. Anyway, their only pursuit is to support the Qing Dynasty and destroy the Ming Dynasty.

Having said that, Fulin taking charge may not necessarily be a bad thing for them.

In any case, both of them have taught Fulin Confucian classics, so now they are both imperial teachers!

Considering Fulin's actual age and lack of insight into many things, the opinions of these two imperial masters will be very important, and may even determine the rise and fall of the Qing Dynasty.

Thinking of this, Fan Wencheng and Ning Wanwo suddenly became complacent.

However, when the two of them entered the main hall of Qianqing Palace, a basin of cold water was poured on them.

The emperors of the Ming Dynasty generally did not hold court meetings in the Qianqing Palace, but because the Manchus had just entered the country not long ago, many rules had not been established, and the Forbidden City had not been completely restored after being burned by fire, so there were not so many rules, so Fulin was here

After taking office, he directly summoned the courtiers to the Qianqing Palace to discuss the affairs.

As soon as Fan Wencheng and Ning Wanwa walked into the Qianqing Palace gate, they saw Luo Luohun, Luck Dehun, Gurma Hun and other nobles of the Eight Banners. Except for brothers Duduo and Dorgon, all the nobles of the other banners were there. Flag Master Baylor was all present, and each person had a chair and sat on both sides of the hall.

Looking at this posture, why don't I understand Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan?

This is another attempt to revive the Eight Banners' political agenda. The little emperor is going to reverse course!

After the Eight Banners are restored, it is hard to say whether the leader of each banner, Beile, will become more powerful. However, one thing is certain, that is, Han ministers like them want to influence the government as they did when Dorgon was in charge. It was absolutely impossible. Fulin, the young emperor who had just taken over the throne, obviously trusted the Manchu ministers more.

This is also true. Fulin gave seats to all the Eight Banners nobles, and even gave seats to Qi Chongge, but he did not give seats to Fan Wencheng and Ning Wanwo, and asked them to stand.

Luo Luohun, Luck Dehun and other Eight Banners nobles cast unfriendly looks at Fan Wencheng and Ning Wanwo.

Fan Wencheng, Ning Wan, I can only try my best to cheer up. No matter how bad the situation is, no matter how the little emperor treats them, their loyalty to the Qing Dynasty will never change. There is no harm in suffering a little injustice for the sake of the Qing Dynasty.

Moreover, the two of them also realized that what was going to be discussed tonight would be the battle and defense strategy that would determine the survival of the Qing Dynasty, so whether it was out of loyalty to the Qing Dynasty or out of their own interests, they had to convince Fulin to continue to defend the country. Beijing should neither give up easily nor rush out of the city to engage in field battles with the Ming army.

Sure enough, after Fan Wencheng and Ning I entered the palace, Linfu walked down from Danqi and said to the flag masters Beile and Qi Chongge, Fan Wencheng and other Manchu and Han ministers who were sitting on the left and right sides: "Your Majesty, your Majesty the Regent." Wang Long Yubin Tian, ​​my heart is very sad, and I wish I could personally watch over the mourning of the emperor's father and the regent. However, there are hundreds of thousands of Ming troops outside the Chaoyang Gate, and there are tens of thousands of pseudo-subordinate cavalry in the direction of Fangshan, watching from afar, surrounded by tigers and wolves. The regulations on the funeral rites of the Imperial Father and the Regent can only be discussed later.”

"The Emperor's Holy Ming." Everyone, including Luo Luohun and other banner leaders, Baylor, chanted in unison.

As the saying goes, once the emperor is the king, there are always ministers. Dorgon is no longer here, so no one cares about his mourning and honor.

Although Fulin spoke of the emperor as his father and regent, and seemed very respectful, the hatred in his tone was barely concealed. Who would speak for Dorgon at this time?

There is no such thing as a funeral ceremony.

It is already very rare for the little emperor not to kill his corpse.

Fulin added: "The most urgent task is to agree on a strategy for war and defense."

As soon as he finished speaking, King Luck Dehun of Duoluo County stood up and said: "Your Majesty, when the old Khan was here, how majestic were our Eight Banners warriors? A mere thirty or fifty cavalry dared to charge thousands of people. With three Wubaiding even dared to attack tens of thousands of enemy troops, and in the end they were able to defeat them."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "During the late emperor's reign, our Qing soldiers had the courage of the Eight Banners and the skill of firearms, which scared the Ming dogs and cowered in the fortress, not daring to cross the thunder pool. Half a step later, the late Emperor Long Yu Bintian was only six years ago. Why were our Qing soldiers so frightened by Ming Gou that they did not dare to fight? I beg the emperor to immediately recall the Eight Banners warriors from Shanhaiguan and Gunzhou Prefecture, and wait until the Eight Banners have gathered together. Let's go out of the city and fight the Ming army for a decisive battle. With the bravery of our Eight Banners Manchurians and the firearms of the Eight Banners Han army, we will definitely be able to defeat the Ming dogs in one battle!"

"Yes, we can definitely defeat Ming Gou in one battle!" The other banner leaders, Baylor, agreed one after another.

Fan Wencheng and Ning Wanwo looked at each other, with a bitter look on their faces.

Sure enough, the most worrying scene appeared. These brainless Eight Banners nobles actually wanted to seek a decisive battle with the Ming army. They really didn't know how to write the word "death".

Have you forgotten the defeat of Guting Town? Did you forget the defeat of Dagukou so quickly?

And the defeat of Hunhe, isn't it enough to make you realize the cruel reality?

There was also Hong Chengchou's army in Jinghai County. They fought with the Ming army in Laizhouwan for nearly half a year, but they were always at a disadvantage. Do these Eight Banners nobles really think that it is because Hong Chengchou doesn't know how to use troops?

However, Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan and I did not rush out to refute them.

Huang Taiji and Dorgon trusted Hanchen and treated them with great courtesy.

However, Eight Banners nobles like Duduo, Luo Luohun, and Luck Dehun had no respect for Han officials. Beating, scolding, and bullying were commonplace. Duduo even once took away Fan Wencheng's concubine.

In the end, it was Dorgon who came forward and Duduo returned the concubine.

But it was also for this reason that Duduo and the Fan family were at odds with each other.

Fan Wencheng's eldest son Fan Chengmo suffered a lot at the hands of Duduo.

So at this time, Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan, I really didn’t dare to come forward to refute them.

If he came forward to refute at this time, he might be hacked to death on the spot by the indignant Eight Banners nobles. The young emperor who had just taken charge might not be able to protect them.

"What do the three gentlemen think?"

Fulin glanced at Qi Chongge, Fan Wencheng and Ning Wanwo.

"I second my opinion," Fan Wencheng and Ning Wanwo decisively gave in.

Qi Chongge didn't agree with going to war in his heart, but he could also see that the nobles of the Eight Banners, such as Luo Luohun and Luck Dehun, were in high spirits. If they got into trouble at this time, there would be absolutely no good results.

At that moment, Qi Chongge also stood up and said, "I also support the decisive battle."

"Okay, let's decide on the strategy of war and defense." Fulin said with his hands behind his back, "Immediately issued an order to order Sony, Yi Bilong and Hong Chengchou to lead their troops back to Beijing, and then ordered Tumut Mongolia and Chahar Mongolia to gather the cavalry as soon as possible

Send reinforcements, and after gathering the Eight Banners Manchuria, Eight Banners Mongolia, Eight Banners Han Army, Green Camp Lianyong and Outer Mongolia, we can choose a day to fight the Ming Army decisively!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." All the nobles of the Eight Banners stood up in unison, their excitement palpable.

When the days of cowardice are finally over, the Eight Banners nobles will usher in a great situation again.

Fan Wencheng, after I left Qianqing Palace, I looked anxious. Now I am in big trouble.

After all the nobles of the Eight Banners had gone far away, Ning Wan and I whispered, "Brother Xian Dou, what should we do?"

Fan Wencheng pondered and said: "A decisive battle with the Ming army is definitely not possible. However, the emperor obviously trusts the Eight Banners nobles and the Manchus more. The Eight Banners nobles are on the verge of regaining power, so forceful persuasion at this time is definitely not possible. In the end,

It’s good to think of a way to make them see the reality clearly and understand that the Qing soldiers really cannot defeat the Ming army.”

"How can this be done?" Ning Wanwo frowned and said, "The nobles of the Eight Banners will not listen to you and me, and Chongzhen and the Ming army will not listen to you and me. It is really difficult to handle."

"Fake surrender!" Fan Wencheng said solemnly, "Fake surrender to the Ming army!"

"Fake surrender?" Ning Wanwo said in astonishment, "Chongzhen is afraid he won't be fooled, right?"

"It doesn't matter whether Chongzhen will be fooled or not." Fan Wencheng said, "As long as the nobles of the Eight Banners know how powerful the Ming army is, our intention will be achieved."
