Emperor Ming Dynasty

Chapter 447

After all, Datong is just a border town, while Taiyuan is the capital of Shanxi. The status is different, and the military achievements are naturally different.

But now, Jiang Guan not only started the incident in advance, but also with a threatening momentum, which has the momentum of sweeping the entire Shanxi, which made You Shiwei unhappy.

"Wan Yishi, I don't know where the Datong Army is now?"

You Shide has a great impression of Wan Lian, a military family, especially after being a loyal minister.

Therefore, the attitude is quite kind.

This made Wan Lian a little flattered, and he cupped his hands and said: "General Bing, Baode Prefecture is far away in the northwest of Shanxi, and the place is remote, but I heard yesterday that his army has arrived in Daizhou."

"Daizhou?"

You Shide was taken aback, why so fast?
There is only one Xinzhou between Daizhou and Taiyuan, and the distance is only three or four hundred miles. It will take a few days to arrive quickly.

And if they go south from Bald State, the distance is not far, but the road is more rugged and the time is longer.

"Doesn't that mean that Taiyuan will also be included in Jiang Tuan's pocket?"

Liu Tingjie was taken aback and blurted out.

"This is bad."

You Shiwei was also a little annoyed.

Wan Lian on the side also showed seriousness at this time: "That is to say, the imperial court and Jiang Guan's plan did not involve going south to Taiyuan?"

At this time, You Shiwei didn't need to hide it anymore: "That's right, according to the previous plan, our army did not start the incident until it arrived in Datong Mansion. There are still three or four days before the incident."

"Jiang Guan did it on purpose."

Wan Lian is a scholar after all, and may have some deficiencies in military affairs, but he is an expert in studying people's hearts:

"He wants to regain the achievements of the whole Jin Dynasty, but when the time comes, the army will arrive, so we have to cooperate with him to defend the city."

"That's right!"

You Shiwei frowned and said: "Although it is a good thing to restore Jin Province, it is not good for the court to let Jiang Tuan sit in power like this."

"Jiang Guan is half-hearted, but he can't be like this."

Wan Lian was full of approval, and then he cupped his hands and said: "If the two generals don't dislike it, I am willing to be the leader and lead the army to Taiyuan."

"Oh? I wish for it!" You Shiwei smiled loudly.

Of course he understood that Wan Lian, like him, wanted to earn more credit.

For a scholar, these military exploits are just a step into his career. Seeing that Ming Dynasty is about to be revived, who can resist boarding the ship?

For You Shiwei and Liu Tingjie, they just needed such a guide, and Wanjia's reputation is also useful.

This hit it off, and the two armies merged and began to move towards Taiyuan.

The soldiers and horses gathered to [-].

Along the way, under the joint movement of cavalry and cavalry, the states and counties looked down on the wind.

At this time, Li Gang, the chief soldier of Xuanfu, was shocked when he heard the news, and couldn't wait to play Beijing.

This is the most angry Dorgon since the defeat in Huai'an, the outrageous anger.

Even the empress dowager suffered an indiscriminate disaster, with several scars on her body, so she could only use the excuse of worshiping the Buddha to avoid going out.

Under such circumstances, Dorgon could only hold a meeting of the king and ministers to discuss politics again.

That is to say, the sentence is: discussing politics-king, ministers-meeting.

Because in addition to the Eight Banners, a large number of shellfish can also participate in the meeting, and share the power of the Bogong King.

In addition to princes and county kings, there are also Baylor and others who participate in the political discussion, so it is also called "the meeting of political kings, Baylor, and ministers".

It's just that the king is not the same as the king of politics, but the prince with the title of minister of politics.

To add, Beizi, Baylor, the county king, and the prince all belong to the prince, and Beizi is only the lowest prince.

According to the rules, a total of 32 people, including the banner owners of the Eight Banners and three ministers from each banner, participated in the meeting of the king and ministers.

As a result, the meeting of kings and ministers discussing politics was held for the first time after entering the customs.

In addition, only the full Eight Banners can participate, and the Han Eight Banners and Mongolian Eight Banners are not eligible.

It was Emperor Shunzhi who did his part.

Although he is only nine years old, he is happy and fearless,

Because he is also the owner of the Xianghuang Banner and the Zhenghuang Banner, the six ministers under his command are eyeing him.

Sitting almost side by side with Shunzhi was Dorgon, the main regent of Zhengbai Banner.

Afterwards, the banner ministers sat on both sides.

The owner of the inlaid white flag: Doni, Prince Yu.

The owner of the Zhenghong Banner: Prince Li Daishan (the owner of the small banner: Dorobel Lek Dehun)

The owner of the inlaid red flag: Luo Keduo, King of Pingjun (the owner of the small banner; Shuo Sai, Prince Chengze).

Owner of Zhenglan Banner: Prince Su Haoge (small banner owners: Prince Azig, Prince of England, and Prince Abate, Prince Duanzhong).

The owner of the Xianglan Banner: Prince Zheng Jierhalang.

And Luo Keduo, the owner of the inlaid red banner, was only eight years old, and was elected by Dorgon's son to inherit his father's career, and he was also Dorgon's faction.

In addition to the inlaid white flag, in fact, Dorgon has mastered the three banners of Manchuria.

On the side of Emperor Shunzhi, in addition to the two yellow flags, Hauge's Zhenglan flag is also three flags.

It seems that they are evenly matched, but they are not.

The Daishan of the Zhenghong Banner was divided by Luck Dehun, and the Zhenglan Banner of Haoge was divided by his brothers Azig and Abatai. Only Jierhalang held the banner alone, but he was in a neutral position.

In fact, Dorgon controls five-eighths of the troops of the Eight Banners.

Moreover, Shunzhi was young, and the two flags basically just fell with the wind.

Therefore, in the Shunzhi Dynasty, Dorgon could basically do whatever he wanted except for proclaiming himself emperor.

There were many participants in this meeting, and everyone was uneasy. Even Shunzhi saw the situation clearly, glanced at Dorgon, and became a clay bodhisattva.

"The reason why the meeting of ministers discussing politics is held today is because I got the news from Datong that Jiang Yu is a traitor."

Dorgon stared at everyone, and opened his mouth with a sentence of news that shocked the audience.

Everyone understands the importance of Datong, even if they don't, just think about Li Zicheng's route to Beijing, and you will understand everything.

However, the uproar only lasted for a while, under Dorgon's watchful eyes, no one dared to speak anymore.

"However, although Datong is important, we have to talk about another matter and settle other accounts."

Dorgon's words were like sharp thorns, and he slammed downwards, making Hauge change color on the spot, and even Jierhalang and Luckd were covered in cold sweat.

"The Xianglan Banner, the Zhenghong Banner, and the Zhenglan Banner, the main force of the Three Banners, plus the Eight Han Banners, the Eight Mongolian Banners, and one hundred thousand soldiers, actually brought me this result—"

Dorgon's short body looked like a giant at this moment, and his sharp eyes pierced the hearts of the three of them, making them tremble unconsciously.

"Your Majesty, the Regent, please make amends—"

The three of them could only stand out and kneel down to plead guilty.

The other banner owners and ministers were also dissatisfied.

In the second year of Shunzhi, more than half of the main force of Duoduo's inlaid white banner was lost, and now the three banners have also lost [-] to [-] percent of their soldiers and horses.

In addition, some Niu Lu participated in the battle and lost in the Two Yellow Banners.

It is conservatively estimated that nearly forty Niulu were lost.

If it is calculated by recording 300 people per cow, it is 10,000 taels.

Shunzhi was listening on the top, also shocked.

The whole Eight Banners is full, but only three hundred and nine cattle records.
