Because of Samushka's desperate blockade, Man Dahai, Suo Hai and others successfully crossed the Heilongjiang River, and the main force of the Qing army was preserved.
However, Manhai and others did not dare to stay and hurried south for fear of being surrounded by the Xia army.
It was not until they crossed the Xiaoxing'an Mountains and saw that Xia Jun was not pursuing them that Man Dahai and others heaved a sigh of relief.
But the changes in the far north and the appearance of the Xia army still made them frightened.
Mandahai and Suohai discussed it and decided to return home in view of the small number of troops on their side.
As for the Heilongjiang area being occupied by the Xia army, they couldn't care less.
They all understood that if they wanted to take back this area, the Manchu Qing would have to mobilize all its troops.
Why could the Manchus do this?
"Xia Jun is really not strong in combat?"
Huang Taiji has no human appearance now and can't even sit up.
He could only do business while leaning on the bed with two palace maids supporting him behind his back.
After hearing the reports from Man Dahai and Suo Hai, a look of worry appeared on his face.
The appearance of the Xia army in the north was really not good news for the Manchus.
Fortunately, the Xia army in the north was not very strong and had only a small number of troops, so the Manchus did not have too much pressure on them.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry too much about this matter. As long as our Qing Dynasty holds Tieling, we are not afraid that Xia Jun can attack. Winter is coming now, and Xia Jun will definitely not dare unless he goes crazy.
Move troops."
Dorgon's mood was not high, but he still comforted Huang Taiji.
From his perspective, it is not good news that Huang Taiji's days are numbered.
Although Huang Taiji overwhelmed their brothers and put them in a very difficult and dangerous situation, this man was still unanimously recognized by everyone as the co-leader of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Once Huang Taiji is gone, looking at the top management of the Qing Dynasty, no one can be said to be worthy of the public's support.
Although he, Dorgon, had made great military achievements in recent years and had a high reputation, Dorgon was very suspicious that Huang Taiji must have arranged some back-up plan to pass the throne to him.
The louder his reputation is now, the more dangerous he will be.
And in recent times, Hauge's performance has been amazing.
In the Battle of Songjin, it was in accordance with Hauge's proposal that the Manchu Qing Dynasty won a complete victory.
This made Hauge's reputation soar to the sky, and many famous officials and generals looked at him with admiration.
What worries Dorgon the most is that Hauge has recently changed from his former recklessness and cruelty, and handles official duties in an orderly and convincing manner.
Hauge is Huang Taiji's eldest son, so taking over the throne is logical.
But he knew very well that once Hauge became emperor, there would be absolutely no way for his brothers to survive.
Huang Taiji could tolerate the three brothers, but Hauge would never.
Dorgon's mind was always silently calculating the strength comparison between him and Hauge.
Dorgon's basic base is two white flags.
The two white flags were the former two yellow flags and were the core force of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, so they had the most powerful combat effectiveness.
This is also the reason why Huang Taiji is quite afraid of him.
Hauge's basic base is Zhenglanqi.
After Amin and Mang Gurtai were dealt with, Huang Taiji handed over the Zhenglan flag to Hauge.
Hauge has not taken over for a long time, and Zhenglanqi's strength is not very strong.
Judging from the current comparison alone, he has an absolute advantage.
But the problem is that once Huang Taiji officially passes the throne to Hauge, then the two yellow flags will completely side with Hauge.
By then, Brother Hao will have the blue flag and the two yellow flags in his hands, and his strength will be arrogant among the others, and he will definitely not be able to compete with it.
The two red flags of Daishan must remain on the sidelines.
And Daishan, an old fox, will definitely make a wise choice.
By then, even if he wanted to resist, he might not be able to do so.
Where is the breaking point?
Huang Taiji's body was extremely weak and he no longer had the energy to pay attention to the intrigue below.
After detailed discussions, the Manchu and Qing high-level officials unanimously concluded that it was impossible for the Xia army to cross thousands of miles from the north of Heilongjiang to the south.
In other words, the north of the Qing Dynasty was still safe for the time being.
Huang Taiji ordered an additional 10,000 troops to be sent to Tieling and stopped paying attention to the situation in the north.
Even Shanhai has always been vigilant.
It was not until clear news came that the Qing army had withdrawn to Liaodong that he breathed a sigh of relief.
At this point, Xia's plan to monopolize the north of Heilongjiang was completely realized.
After some planning, they not only repelled the Qing army, but also wiped out Sauron and other tribes.
Nowadays, a large area north of Heilongjiang has become blank. There is no need for the Xia army to be dispatched. Even ordinary people can enclose the land at will.
After receiving the notification, Zuo Maodi and Xia Yunyi made a prompt decision and immediately sent a large number of staff up the Heilongjiang River to establish new settlements in the Xishenwei area.
This is the intersection of Heilongjiang River and Wusuli River.
In the middle of the river, there is a big island.
Because there are black bears on it, it is called Heixiazi Island.
The new settlement is on the east bank across the Ussuri River from Heixiazi Island.
It is called Khabarovsk in the local language, and the provincial capital was named after it.
It is adjacent to the river, has abundant water power, and is covered with large areas of plains.
The west side of the Wusuli River, except for Heixiazi Island, is full of endless swamps, making it impossible for the army to pass.
To the south of Khabarovsk, there is a long mountain range, forming a natural barrier. To the east is a large lake, surrounded by muddy swamps.
It can be said that if an enemy comes to attack, they can only wait until they pass through the Ussuri River in winter.
However, in winter, the weather is freezing cold and the snow is heavy, so the logistics and transportation of the army cannot be guaranteed at all.
In other words, this place is not only rich, but also a chosen place.
In cooperation with the government, the Northern Military Region has stationed a regiment of troops on Heixiazi Island. There is a mighty river behind it, which facilitates the provision of endless support.
Even if the Qing Dynasty mobilized the whole country to attack, there is no hope of winning.
Khabarovsk also became the forefront of Jilin Province's response to the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
In accordance with the orders of the Central Committee and the Headquarters, we will proceed from here to continuously conduct reconnaissance and penetration of the entire Heilongjiang Basin to prepare for future operations.
To the north of Heilongjiang, it completely became the territory of Xia Kingdom.
Military and civilian expedition teams began bold and confident exploration.
Compared with the strictly disciplined military, civilian expedition teams are more wild.
One of the expedition teams ran the fastest and discovered that there was a tall mountain range running east-west in the due north direction, stretching for thousands of miles.
The expedition team has begun to look for a way over, wanting to see what lies north of the mountains.
Following the expedition team, the staff of Yazi Company kept setting up supply points along the way and purchasing furs, medicinal materials and other goods from the expedition team nearby.
Officials from Jilin Province will then follow suit and expand these supply points into settlements and become permanent fortifications.
Jilin has developed a set of scientific and effective methods on how to explore and explore.
