Chapter 1129: Still calm

Shenyang, Dazheng Palace, Green Room.

Regent Dorgon looked at the scout kneeling on the ground, his face ashen.

"I ask you, what do Sony, Obai, Tan Tai and Tu Lai and others do? Xianghuangqi is stationed in Tieling, monitoring all the situations in Kaiyuan, Fushun, Sarhu and Zhenbeiguan. Why are there suddenly tens of thousands of people? The sergeants of the Denglai New Army occupied Zhenbeiguan. Don’t Sony and the others know how big a mistake they have made..."

The scout kneeling on the ground did not dare to speak at all. He was a scout with a yellow flag and went to Shenyang specifically to report the military situation. The rest of the situation was not very clear, but a sergeant of the Denglai New Army suddenly appeared in the direction of Zhenbeiguan. Some of the scouts still knew about it. I remember that after the general reported the information to Sony, Obai and others, the atmosphere changed instantly.

Dorgon probably also knew that losing his temper in front of the scouts would have little effect.

After waving to the scout, Dorgon spoke coldly.

"You go back and tell Sony and others to wait for punishment from the court. But before that, they must investigate clearly how many Denglai New Army sergeants are in Zhenbeiguan and when they arrived at Zhenbeiguan. I don't believe it. , sergeants from the Denglai New Army flew over, if the investigation is not clear, I will take their heads..."

After the scout left in despair, Dorgon couldn't sit still. He walked to the map and looked at it in detail, his body shaking from time to time.

When the palace guards entered the greenhouse, Dorgon spoke without looking back.

"Go and invite Duduo and Azig to come to the greenhouse. No, we also need to invite Daishan to come to the greenhouse. Just tell them that there is an urgent military situation and ask them not to waste time. It is related to the life and death of our Qing Dynasty..."

...

Dorgon did not expect that the first person to come to the greenhouse would be Prince Li Daishan.

When Duduo and Azig entered the greenhouse side by side, they were about to speak. When they saw Daishan sitting aside, they were both a little surprised and consciously shut up.

Dorgon could no longer care so much and picked up the documents on the desk.

"Scouts from the Xianghuang Banner have just come to report that a large number of Denglai New Army sergeants have been discovered at Zhenbeiguan. The exact number of sergeants is not clear yet. Denglai New Army sergeants have already built fortifications in the Zhenbeiguan area..."

Daishan, Duduo and Azig were all stunned.

Duduo stood up and thought about swearing, but looked at Daishan beside him and sat down silently.

Daishan, who had his eyes closed, suddenly opened them, looked at Dorgon and spoke.

"Prince Regent, Xianghuang Banner was stationed in Tieling. Didn't you know anything beforehand? What on earth were they doing? I remember that Obai, Xianghuang Banner, was also a tiger general. Where were his eyes and ears..."

Dorgon looked at Daishan, sighed and then spoke.

"Second brother, not only Ao Bai, but also Sony, Tan Tai and Tu Lai from Zhenghuang Banner have all gone to Tieling..."

A hint of gloom flashed across Daishan's face and soon disappeared. Sony, Obai, Tan Tai and Tu Lai were Huang Taiji's confidants. After Huang Taiji died of illness, these people fully supported Hauge in inheriting the throne. They almost had a head-on conflict with Dorgon and others. Later, the Empress Dowager discussed with many princes and decided to let the six-year-old Fulin inherit the throne. Sony and others turned around and firmly supported Fulin, threatening that if anyone threatened the emperor, they would Fight to the end without hesitation.

Although Dorgon controlled the Qing Dynasty and had enough power, he did not dare to take action against Sony, Obai and others. After all, Zhenghuang Banner and Xianghuang Banner represented the emperor and imperial power. Unless Dorgon wanted to usurp the throne, otherwise he would Taking action against the straight yellow flag and the bordered yellow flag represents rebellion.

Perhaps for this reason, when Xianghuang Banner was dispatched to Tieling, several of the main officers of Zhenghuang Banner, Sony, Tan Tai and Tu Lai, all went to Tieling. In this way, Zhenghuang Banner who stayed in Shenyang was relatively easy to control.

After Dorgon finished speaking, Daishan did not speak immediately. Instead, he stood up and walked to the front of the map to take a closer look.

"Wu Zongrui, the emperor of the Wu Dynasty, and the Ji Liao governor of the Ming Dynasty, have such a big appetite that they dare to send a large number of Denglai new troops to Zhenbeiguan. Isn't this an attempt to surround our Eight Banners Army? He is courageous and courageous, but it is a pity that he underestimated me, the soldiers of the Eight Banners Army..."

Dorgon looked at Duduo, Azig and others, and walked next to Daishan.

"What the second brother said is that this time Wu Zongrui, the emperor of the Wu Dynasty, obviously wanted to destroy the Qing Dynasty, but he probably didn't expect that Jierhalang was stationed in Liaoyang and sent Han troops to raid Xiping Fort and robbed many of them. The lack of money and food completely destroyed the Xiping Fort, causing the situation in Liaodong to be turbulent, and Denglai's new army that besieged Liaoyang all retreated..."

Daishan turned his head and looked at Dorgon.

"What the regent said is, but Jierhalang's subsequent orders were not very good. Since the Han army won the victory and achieved its goal, after retreating, they would quickly head to Anshan or Liaoyang. Why did they launch a siege to Liaoyang?" The attack of the Lai Xin Army is seeking death. Some of us Manchus can't stand the Han people and the Han army. Even if all the Han Eight Banners soldiers died, they think it doesn't matter. How can they have such thoughts during the battle? The Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty are also the Eight Banners Army and an important force for us. If we despise the Han Army so much, why did the late emperor form the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty..."

Daishan's tone was quite gentle, but Dodo and Azig, who were sitting aside, turned slightly red.

Duduo is indeed arrogant. Sometimes he doesn't hesitate to speak in front of Dorgon. He was also careless when speaking in front of Huang Taiji. However, he is still a little restrained in front of Daishan. Daishan is too old. One of the four great Baylors, he once served as a prince. If it hadn't been for one reason or another, he would have been the emperor of the Qing Dynasty long ago. The second Daishan had sufficient strength. He had two banners under his command, the Zhenghongqi and the Xianghongqi. Comparing them individually , Dorgon and Duduo are both inferior. If Daishan turns to fully support the emperor, Dorgon's power will surely suffer a heavy blow. Daishan is much older in the third time, and Daishan's sons are older than Duduo. big.

Dorgon's understanding was similar to Daishan's. He was the regent after all, so he looked at issues from a different perspective.

"What the second brother said is that I have written to Jierhalang specifically talking about this matter. Many officers stationed in Liaoyang actually proposed that the Han army continue to attack the Denglai New Army on the periphery. Fortunately, the second brother Ye Chen, the commander under his command, stood up and said something fair, saying that if the Han army continued to attack the Denglai New Army on the periphery, the end result would be the annihilation of the entire army, and the Han army might even be forced to submit to the Denglai New Army. Jierharang obeyed. On Ye Chen’s suggestion, we decided to let the Han army enter Liaoyang City and defend Liaoyang City together with the Manchu Banner and the Mongolian Banner.”

Daishan smiled. He knew clearly that what Ye Chen said would not have a decisive effect. How could a mere governor of Zhenghongqi decide such a big matter? On the one hand, Jierharang himself had such a view.

Ye Chen just stood up to help and talk. On the other hand, Dorgon had an informant in Liaoyang and knew all the conditions there. The letter written by Dorgon also prompted Jierhalang to make up his mind.

"Oh, I know this Ye Chen. He was favored by the late emperor and helped me take care of the flag affairs for a period of time. He is a bit older, he seems to be over sixty. This man has some abilities.

But he is a bit conceited and doesn’t know how to turn when things happen, so he is suitable for rushing on the battlefield, but not suitable for civil servants..."

Dorgon nodded, with a slightly anxious look on his face. At this time, he was not worried about discussing Ye Chen's character and ability with Daishan. Denglai's new army, which directly penetrated Zhenbeiguan, was a thorn in the side of the Qing Dynasty.

It's always something that hits the heart.

"Second brother, I invite you here today to discuss how to deal with the Denglai New Army stationed in Zhenbeiguan. I have some impressions of this Zhenbeiguan, but it is not very big. After the Battle of Sarhu that year, Zhenbeiguan

The Qing Dynasty completely gave up. Since then, the main force of the Eight Banners Army has been marching southward, and it is impossible to pay attention to Zhenbeiguan. This time the imperial court sent Xianghuang Banner to Tieling, and the focus of attention was not Zhenbeiguan. Once they came to this town

Beiguan is seventy miles away from Kaiyuan City. It is a long way. Secondly, Zhenbeiguan has been completely deserted. It is very difficult to transport food for the troops stationed here. But I never expected that the Wu court would actually focus on Zhenbeiguan.

, sent the Denglai New Army to occupy Zhenbeiguan, this move poses a great threat to our Qing Dynasty..."

Daishan closed his eyes, obviously deep in thought. It was impossible for him to speak casually about such a big matter.

Duduo couldn't help it and stood up.

"Prince Regent, I am willing to lead the soldiers with white flags to Zhenbeiguan to completely wipe out Denglai's new army and eliminate the hidden dangers of our Qing Dynasty. I also ask the Prince Regent for permission..."

Azig also stood up, clasping his fists and preparing to speak.

Dorgon waved his hand to stop Azig and turned to look at Daishan.

Daishan opened his eyes.

"Prince Yu's courage is commendable. I admire him very much, but the key at the moment is not Zhenbeiguan. If we cannot solve the problem of Liaoyang in time, we will not be able to completely solve the problem of Zhenbeiguan..."

A smile appeared on Dorgon's face, and Daishan's thoughts were highly consistent with his.

Daishan looked at Dorgon and continued.

"The scouts reported that the Denglai New Army that attacked the Qing Dynasty has a total strength of about 300,000. A small number of them are stationed in Liaodong, and the rest have crossed the Liao River. Let's count it as 250,000 for the time being. Assume that there are 50,000 of them.

People went to Zhenbeiguan, and there were still 200,000 people. These 200,000 people were staring at Liaoyang and Anshan. The Han army and the Denglai New Army had already had a confrontation. They stated that the weapons of the Denglai New Army were very powerful and difficult to resist. This

This means we are under great pressure to defend Liaoyang and Anshan..."

"The Denglai New Army in Zhenbeiguan echoes the Denglai New Army attacking Liaoyang. For our Eight Banners Army, if we completely defeat the Denglai New Army in the direction of Liaoyang, the Denglai New Army stationed in Zhenbeiguan will

The Lai Xin Army will definitely flee..."

Dorgon nodded vigorously.

"What the second brother said is that as long as the siege in the direction of Liaoyang is relieved, Zhenbeiguan will not have any problems. Emperor Wu Zongrui is indeed powerful and dares to take such a big risk. How can the Denglai New Army that he arranged to Zhenbeiguan still be there?"
