Since the death of Daishan, Jierhalang has become the oldest royal prince in the Qing court. Although Dorgon, Azig, and Shuosei are all of the same generation as him, in terms of age and seniority, compared with
There is a huge difference between Jierhalang and Jierhalang.
However, although Jierhalang also went to war with the army this time, he knew very well that it was not because Dorgon needed his military talents, but because Dorgon was not confident about him, so he wanted to take him with him. Therefore.
Jirharang also knows very well
Interesting, since he left the capital, he has been taciturn and rarely expresses his opinions to avoid Dorgon's suspicion. But when the war has progressed to this point, Jierhalang has to speak. After all, he does not want to accompany him.
Dorgon died in Kaifeng.
Seeing that everyone's attention was focused on him, Ji Erharang coughed and said: "Now that the Daimyo and Zhangtoku Mansion have been lost, our retreat has been cut off by the Chinese army, so the only way is to detour through Shanxi and pass through Taiyuan.
Datong returns to Beijing."
After hearing this, Dorgon couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Detour to Shanxi and return to Beijing. With an army of hundreds of thousands and a lot of baggage, how easy is it?"
Jierhalang shook his head and said: "We are taking a detour to Shanxi, not with a large army. After Nikan and Han Dai come back, we can let them lead a large army to attack Daming Mansion and contain the strength of the Chinese army.
Then we will travel lightly, with only a few thousand cavalry, and leave Kaifeng. We will immediately take a detour from Shanxi and reach Beijing in ten days at most. There is no other way."
His meaning was very clear. To put it bluntly, he was to abandon the army and use Nikan and Han Dai troops to contain the Chinese army, while Dorgon and others secretly escaped from Kaifeng. But under the current circumstances,
This is indeed the only way. Otherwise, hundreds of thousands of people and a large amount of baggage would have to take a detour from Shanxi.
Not only is it huge and time-consuming, it will also face attacks from the Chinese army along the road, forcing them to run exhausted. Maybe there is a real danger of the entire army being annihilated. Of course, in this way, the nearly 200,000 people left here will
All the troops and horses were destroyed. Because once Dorgon and others escaped like this, no one would have the will to fight anymore, and the entire army would also be wiped out.
Thinking of this, Dorgon couldn't help but look at Hong Chengchou, obviously wanting to hear his opinion.
Because up to now, Dorgon did not know that the fall of Daming Mansion was directly related to Zhao Yue, so he still had great trust in Hong Chengchou. Otherwise, others would have attacked Hong Chengchou long ago.
Because of course it was Hong Chengchou who advocated the recruitment and surrender of Zhao Yue, Li Benzhen and others so that they could be used by the Qing court to help the Qing court train the new army. Although this suggestion was
With Dorgon's strong support, Dorgon personally summoned Zhao Yue, Li Benzhen and others to commend them. But now that something went wrong, this responsibility naturally fell to Hong Chengchou. And now Li Benzhen is working in the Qing Dynasty in Kaifeng.
The army will definitely be implicated. Of course, from this point of view, it is not entirely a bad thing that Mu Chen fled to Hejian Mansion and did not come to Kaifeng.
Seeing Dorgon signaling him with his eyes, Hong Chengchou also came out and said: "Reporting to the regent, I believe that Prince Zheng's proposal is reasonable and it is time to make a plan. The defeat on the battlefield in the Central Plains has been decided. This is the only way Yin Lun can
Return to the capital."
Dorgon smiled bitterly and said, "If you throw hundreds of thousands of troops here, what can you do even if you escape back to Beijing?"
Several other people looked at each other a few times, and Shuosei said: "Prince Regent, now we are in urgent need of attention, so we can only focus on the immediate things. As for what to do after returning to Beijing, let's wait until we choose to go back. There will always be a way.
.If it doesn’t work, we will set fire to Beijing, take all the gold and silver treasures with us, and then return them all to the outside of the customs. We will leave the Han people’s country behind and leave it to the Han people.”
Hong Chengchou also said: "Prince Regent, as the saying goes, 'If you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood.' The current situation is not completely hopeless. After we return to Beijing, we can immediately send people to lobby Wu Sangui of Sichuan and
The three Southern Ming Dynasties in the south asked them to immediately send troops to attack Huguang, Jiangxi, Zhejiang and other places. Now Shang Yi
The situation is so great that Wu Sangui and others will never dare to sit still and wait to see success or failure. As long as they send troops to the southwest, there is no need to worry that Shang Yi will not withdraw his troops. In this way, the Qing Dynasty can also have a few years of breathing space.
, slowly recuperating and accumulating troops, and when the troops are well-prepared and well-fed, they can then raise their troops and go south to compete with Shang Yi for the world. The outcome may not be known."
Dorgon laughed bitterly again. Of course he knew that Hong Chengchou's words were greatly exaggerated. At this time, Wu Sangui and Nanhuang would indeed send troops to attack Nanjing. But with their strength, they could only drag Shang Yi up to one level.
in two years
time, and after the defeat of the Central Plains, the Qing government did not have twenty years to recover at all. What are these two years enough? Of course, it can be delayed for one or two years, which is better than not having one or two years at all, and maybe it can
Some other changes occur.
In fact, Dorgon may not know that Jierhalang's suggestion is indeed the only feasible solution at present, but Dorgon's position is different from others. He is not only the commander-in-chief of the entire army, but also the leader of the Qing court.
If the actual ruler abandons these hundreds of thousands of troops and flees north alone, then
Dorgon's prestige in Qingting will be completely wiped out. No matter whether the Qing court can continue after the defeat in the Central Plains War, Dorgon is absolutely doomed. Of course Dorgon knows that he has offended many people in the past few years.
There are too many people. Once you lose power, waiting for yourself will never be a good outcome.
Dorgon no longer has any illusions about defeating the Chinese army and winning the Central Plains War. He is looking for the purpose of discussion with everyone. He just hopes to bring back all the hundreds of thousands of troops, at least most of them. That's what he said.
Maybe there is still a chance to keep one's position. Unfortunately, there is no such a two-pronged strategy now.
Therefore, Dorgon thought about it for two days and finally decided that he could only use Jierhalang's method, abandon the army, take only a small number of elite cavalry, detour to Shanxi, and return to Beijing. As for how to deal with the situation in Beijing after arriving in Beijing
, that is a matter for the future, let’s wait until we return to Beijing.
Then Dorgon also issued successive orders, urging Nikan and Han Dai to rush back to Kaifeng Mansion as soon as possible. They had to take a detour to escape north. They had to wait until Nikan and Han Dai returned to Kaifeng and sent troops to contain the Chinese army in Daming Mansion.
conduct.
At the same time, Dorgon also ordered Lekedhun, who was stationed in Guide Prefecture, to abandon Guide Prefecture and immediately lead all the troops back to Kaifeng. After receiving the order, Lekedhun was very surprised, because at this time the Chinese army
There are not many troops stationed near Guide Mansion anymore.
Even in Xuzhou, there were only 20,000 troops from Zheng Chenggong's troops. Of course Lek Dehun would not take Zheng Chenggong's troops seriously, so he planned to ask Dorgon for an order to attack Xuzhou. But after receiving Dorgon's general order, he
Not daring to disobey, he immediately gathered his troops and prepared to rush back to Kaifeng.
Finally, three days later, Nikan, Han Yan, and LEK's muddy people returned to Kaifeng. The three of them arrived at the same time. Dole also announced to the three of them.
The news of the military attack.
After listening to Lecdehhuman, Nikan, the three of Han Yan were shocked, because the news was indeed too surprised, and the situation in the Central Plains battlefield can be said to be very crisis. At the same time, the three of them understood
Why do Dorr's commandment out of such an order.
At this time, Doles ordered that this time it will be led by Lewedh Hun Hun, a total of 120,000 troops, and all the new troops and artillery are handed over to Lec Hun Hun.
The road in Beijing.
Everyone who was in Kaifeng knew what was going on this time, so it was impossible to send them to lead, so they could only let the three people of Lec Dehun, Nikan, and Han Yan played this role. Of course, the three of them did not know.
Dole's true plan, so after receiving the order, he was ready to leave immediately.
The soldiers and horses have been prepared for the past few days, so just the next day, the three of them led people and were about to set off. But at this time, Duo Yan received an urgent report from Beijing.
It turned out that the people in Japan and North Korea have landed in Tianjin. There are about 120,000 people in the two countries.
, To rescue Dole's people.
It turned out that after Mu Chen fled to Hejian Mansion, he told Bolo that the news of the fell -down mansion was shocked by Bollo.
As soon as the Central Plains defeated, the Qing court was difficult to protect. Bolo was dedicated to rescue, but he had only 60,000 people under his own hands.
Urgent reports, please send troops in Beijing, attack Damei Mansion, and rescue Dole.
It was Morr's confidant. After the confidant of Dole and Tantai. After the two received reports, they couldn't help but be shocked. Although all the princes, county kings, Belle was taken away by Dole.
Therefore, in Beijing, the two of them have the greatest power, but such a big thing, the two did not dare to be the master, and hurriedly reported to Fulin.
Fulin is just a twelve -year -old child. I do n’t understand the military affairs, but the queen queen queen of the harem is a person who understands the matter. Of course, I know the current situation in the situation.
, Recruiting where the Luoluo, Tan Tai, Xifu, Ganglin, Fan Wencheng, I would like to wait for the Minister of the Han Dynasty to go to the palace to discuss countermeasures.
