On the way to the Chongzheng Hall, Dorgon's heart was bleeding. Duoduo's death in battle dealt him a huge blow. This kind of blow is definitely beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Duo Duo is two years younger than Dorgon, and he is only 28 years old this year. He is in the prime of life, and he is at the age where he can charge for the Qing Dynasty. Unexpectedly, he died in battle. Although the generals of the Qing Dynasty, no one knew that they could live At some point, maybe one day he would die on the battlefield, but Duoduo was too young.

Dorgon and Duoduo grew up together, and the two brothers often stayed together, including many battles, fighting against the enemy side by side. Dorgon is seven years older, and Duo Duo is nine years older, and they spend very little time together. Such a huge age gap makes them not belong to the primary level.

The relationship between Dorgon and Duduo was established since childhood. The two are not only close brothers, but also an unbreakable political alliance. No matter what it is, Duduo will unconditionally support Dorgon Yes, looking at the entire Qing Dynasty, there is no second such person, not even Azig.

Dorgon is calm and courageous, courageous to make decisions, and full of foresight. He is the best among the nobles of the Manchus. His status among the nobles of the Manchus is second only to Huang Taiji, not weaker than Hauge. Dare to take responsibility, show loyalty, love the soldiers, and won the support of the soldiers. Over the years, the two brothers have led the army under their jurisdiction and won many victories. They have an unusual weight in the Qing Dynasty.

The relationship between the two of them and Azig is mediocre.The main reason is that Azig's character is too exposed, he does things without considering the consequences, he likes to do things with blood and courage, and even his ambition will be revealed. To be honest, Dorgon and Duoduo.They all look down on Azig and are unwilling to have too much contact with Azig, but they are brothers after all, and contact is indispensable in many cases.

Huang Taiji established Hauge as Huang Taiji, and Dorgon was very disappointed, but he didn't show it, but Duoduo didn't behave like this, thinking that Hauge was not as good as Dorgon.The emperor of the Qing Dynasty should be able to win. Dorgon's conditions in all aspects are stronger than that of Hauge. Originally, Duo Duo was going to argue hard, but was stopped by Dorgon. Duo Duo has always listened to Dorgon So I didn't go out to make trouble.Unexpectedly, Azig actually came forward to complain for Dorgon.It's a pity that no one would notice Azig's opinion, and even Dorgon felt it later. The reason why Azige came forward to complain was to a large extent that he could gain more power for himself, if he had the opportunity.Azig wished he could be emperor himself.

After Hauge became the crown prince, Dorgon and Duoduo had several long talks, and the two agreed that under the current circumstances, everything should focus on the Qing Dynasty.The Qing Dynasty is facing a lot of dangers. I don’t know if Hauge can lead the people to truly make the Qing Dynasty strong. Seeing that Huang Taiji’s body is getting weaker and weaker, if Hauge can’t lead the people to deal with the complicated situation , Dorgon and Duoduo are united, and they can do some things.

All of this, with the death of Duo Duo, no longer exists. Since receiving the news of Duo Duo's death in battle, Dorgon has woken up crying from his sleep many times. Dorgon.

But Dorgon is a person who does great things. Knowing that the Qing Dynasty is in danger, he will not be swayed by his feelings. After thinking about the situation of the Qing Dynasty, Dorgon suggested decisively that it is not yet possible to garrison Gai. The Jiangning battalion in the state launched a general offensive.

The most important thing Dorgon needs to consider is the ownership of the bordered white flag. According to the rules of the Qing Dynasty, Dorgon can also serve as the owner of the bordered white flag. Duoduo's bordered white flag is here In the last battle, nearly half of the people were killed, and there were more than [-] people left. These are elite forces. As long as Dorgon can also serve as the banner owner, he can expand the personnel in the shortest time and let the Xiangbai Banner Become one of the most elite troops in the Qing Dynasty.

But all of this requires Huang Taiji's consent. This is the biggest problem, and it is also a sad thing for Dorgon.

Judging from the actual situation of the Qing Dynasty, no one else can serve as the banner owner of the Bordered White Banner, and the soldiers below will not be convinced. Only Dodorgon has such an advantage.

Although Dorgon was in a hurry, even though he said he was uneasy, he didn't show it at all, nor did he show any attitude on this matter. One favorable aspect is that Azig actually thought that he could be the owner of the white flag , Isn't this a joke, Huang Taiji would never agree anyway, let alone the soldiers with white flags.

After returning to Shenyang, Dorgon suppressed his grief, and every time he was on the Chongzheng Hall, he talked with eloquence, starting from the interests of the Qing Dynasty, and expressed his own point of view. His gesture won the favor of some Manchus Behind this kind of praise is the interweaving of power, and the biggest manifestation is the issue of the banner owner with the white flag.

Daishan, Prince of Li, first expressed his point of view, thinking that Dorgon can also serve as the banner owner of the bordered white flag. It is not a simple matter for Daishan to speak. , it is necessary to avoid such issues, so as not to arouse Huang Taiji's suspicion, but Daishan still spoke up and supported Dorgon. On the one hand, Daishan believed that this was in line with the rules of the Qing Dynasty. On the other hand, it was also because Daishan The low-key in Liaodong touched Daishan. Daishan, who was hit hard, changed his mind long ago. Instead of fighting for power and profit, he dared to speak some truths for the benefit of the Qing Dynasty.

Jierhalang also supported Dorgon. Duduo's death made Jierhalang extremely guilty and self-blaming. Because of the tense defense situation in Haizhou, Jierhalang could not return to Shenyang and could only stick to it. , but in the letter to Huang Taiji, Jierhalang supported Dorgon as the owner of the inlaid white flag. Dagon and Dodo have the best relationship, and they are brothers. Jierhalang supported Dorgon, which is equivalent to giving Dodo the greatest compensation.

The many banner owners who are in charge of the Eight Banners, apart from Huang Taiji and Haoge who have not expressed their views yet, Daishan and Jierhalang have both expressed their views. At this point, the matter has actually taken shape, but everyone knows that the final decision-making power rests with In the hands of Huang Taiji.

As for Azig, no one mentioned it, and everyone knows that Azig is not qualified to be the owner of the bordered white flag. Not to mention other things, so far, Azig is still the king of the county, and the owner of the banner should at least be a prince However, judging from Azig's performance, it is almost impossible to become a prince.

Dorgon is clear about all these developments. If he is said to have great influence in Shenyang, even though Hauge has become the crown prince, his influence in Shenyang may not be stronger than Dorgon's. The nobles of human rights have this kind of understanding. Since the establishment of Houjin, they have come through countless times of fighting. The nobles of human rights believe in the strong and worship the strong. Nurhachi and Huang Taiji are the strongest among the strong. As long as Hauge has not become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, he cannot be said to be the most powerful person in the Qing Dynasty.

This time, Dorgon was very low-key and never publicized. Some Manchu nobles thought of visiting the mansion as a comfort to Dorgon, but Dorgon never met. He must restrain himself at critical times. So as not to arouse the suspicion of Huang Taiji and Hauge, we have already learned a similar lesson before, and we cannot fall twice in the same place.

To say that from the bottom of his heart, Dorgon does not want to usurp the throne and become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. As long as he can truly grasp power and make the Qing Dynasty stronger, it is the same whether he is an emperor or not, but Dorgon understands that The emperor has the power of life and death, and can mobilize various forces to deal with a certain person or a certain group. From this aspect, Dorgon must accumulate enough power, which is large enough to make The emperor did not dare to do it easily.

In the Qing Dynasty, the real way to control power was to control the army.

The Qing Dynasty is in a precarious state. It is not known how many years of conquests it will take, and it is not known whether it is possible to conquer the Central Plains. The future is still unclear. Under such circumstances, Dorgon will not even think about seeking the throne up.

Dorgon is aware of his own flaws, that is, he has a bad relationship with Hauge. Anyway, Hauge is the crown prince, a figure under one person and above ten thousand in the Qing Dynasty, so he should maintain the necessary respect , but Dorgon felt uncomfortable because he just didn't want to curry favor with Hauge. In terms of ability, Hauge was indeed inferior to Dorgon.

Back in Shenyang this time, Hauge only visited Hauge.

This is a rare change for Dorgon, and it is also a decision made after a long time of thinking. Hauge has long been involved in the government and can make many decisions. Under such circumstances, Dorgon is It's not that he can also serve as the banner owner of the bordered white flag. Hauge has a great say. Dorgon can accurately understand the problem in this area. He can clearly distinguish between face and power.

The effect of that visit must have been very good. After only two days, Huang Taiji called everyone to the Chongzheng Hall to discuss the defense deployment, and the owner of the inlaid white flag belonged to the defense deployment. , an unavoidable topic, and something that definitely needs to be decided.

Dorgon is full of hope, he has considered all aspects, even if Huang Taiji has scruples, but under the current situation, I am afraid that he can only let himself be the banner owner of the bordered white flag, and the related defense and offense, I am afraid that major adjustments will also be made. All of this will be decided in the deliberations that will take place later. (To be continued..)
