Ming politicians

In just three days, Huang Taiji had already been in a coma four times. Although the duration of each coma was not long, it was enough to touch the hearts of many Manchu nobles. At such a critical moment, Huang Taiji had to persevere. The nobles still don't really believe that Hauge can turn the tide at the critical moment.

After receiving the battle report from Liaodong, Huang Taiji immediately vomited blood and fell into a coma. After the emergency rescue by the imperial physician, Huang Taiji woke up. The imperial physician and the concubines in the harem waited for Huang Taiji at every step. During this period, Hauge did A decision was made to call Daishan, Dorgon, Jierhalang, Azig and others back to Shenyang to discuss major issues related to the Qing Dynasty.

Hauge's performance is still good, at least to the greatest extent, it has stabilized the situation in the Qing Dynasty, but how to deal with the affairs of Liaodong, how to adjust the combat deployment, all these need to be decided by Huang Taiji, according to Hauge's It is difficult for authority to make a thorough decision on these matters, and the Qing Dynasty is in a seriously unfavorable situation and needs a backbone.

Hauge waited for Huang Taiji with his clothes untied.

There was God's will in the dark, and three days later, the pale-faced Huang Taiji appeared in the Chongzheng Hall.

This was the result of Huang Taiji's persistence. Even though his body was in an extremely weak state, even though he had suffered a major blow, Huang Taiji persisted and came to Chongde Hall.

Many Manchu nobles had been waiting in the main hall for a long time. The atmosphere in the main hall was particularly dignified. The defeat of Liaodong, coupled with the weakness of Huang Taiji's body, became a stone in the hearts of many Manchu nobles, heavy.

Huang Taiji finally spoke, without the loud and clear voice before, but everyone could hear every word clearly.

"I dreamed about the first emperor. I think back then, the first emperor led us to conquer everywhere. We won too many victories. How could we have expected the current situation? I also dreamed about the 10,000+ soldiers in Liaodong. More than half of them were I will stay in Xipingbao forever, it is these dreams that make me wake up, I can't sleep, I can't rest, the Qing Dynasty must cheer up."

No one spoke, everyone listened quietly.

"You are all the ministers of the humerus of my Qing Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty depends on you to be able to cheer up and become strong. My health is not good. I don't want you to be downcast. It's nothing to fail. My Qing Dynasty has too much warriors, our Qing Dynasty is capable of defeating the Ming court."

"If you fail, don't you think the sky is falling. If you are all downcast, those soldiers in Gaizhou and Xipingbao, as well as so many soldiers who died in our Qing Dynasty. What do you think? Can they be peaceful underground? I also I wanted to rest, but the late emperor warned me in my dream that at such a critical moment, I would never back down."

"Don't worry, I won't die, and I will live with him for decades."

It seemed very difficult for Huang Taiji to speak.After saying so much, it was still holding on. After the next few words, there were already bean-sized drops of sweat on the forehead, and the imperial physician was waiting by the side.His complexion also changed, he was afraid that Huang Taiji would faint at this time, and the imperial physicians in the palace were in a panic, and they had received too many reprimands, so they didn't know what to do.

Hauge stood beside Huang Taiji, seeing Huang Taiji's situation, he was ready to speak.

Huang Taiji raised his hand and stopped Hauge.

The hall was unusually quiet, and the sound of Huang Taiji's heavy breathing was very clear.

After a while, Huang Taiji continued to speak.

"I have thought of a lot, the so-called times make heroes, but there is another sentence behind it, heroes must adapt to the times, if they are blindly reckless, heroes will become bears. Since the first emperor raised troops, the situation that our Qing Dynasty has faced, Sometimes dangerous, sometimes smooth, the situation is always changing. Before the first year of Chongde, my Qing Dynasty was very smooth. I conquered the Mongolian tribes, entered the customs many times, and gained a lot. But after the first year of Chongde, the situation appeared There have been changes, but I have not been able to adjust the strategy in time, so that the current situation has appeared, and the responsibility for the defeat of Liaodong is still on my head."

"Da Ming's situation has obviously improved. Since the bandits were wiped out, I should have thought that the means of dealing with Daming should be changed. Da Ming can wipe out the bandits. If the national power does not improve, it is impossible to do this. My level is the same as that of Daming. The rogues echoed each other and joined forces to attack the Ming court. Although I look down on the rogues, I have no choice but to use the strength of the rogues to consume the power of the Ming court."

"Fan Wencheng has committed suicide. Many of you have opinions on Fan Wencheng, and you can't get used to it, but you have to remember that Fan Wencheng has contributed to our Qing Dynasty. I remember it very clearly. In the first year of Germany, Fan Wencheng made a suggestion to me to change the strategy against the Ming court and stop blindly attacking it, but none of you thought of this, not to mention you, I didn’t even think of it, I think what Fan Wencheng said is nonsense."

"Whatever the cause is, what the result is, I always think that the Manchus are the most valiant, and it is a matter of course that the Han people are defeated, but the national power of my Qing Dynasty is temporarily inferior to that of the Ming Dynasty, so it will be sooner or later to wipe out the Ming Dynasty Things, but I didn't expect that there would be a Su Tiancheng in Ming Dynasty, who would directly threaten our Qing Dynasty."

"It's very painful for me to admit that my previous mistakes are painful, but I'm also very happy. I can see my previous mistakes and think of more ways to deal with them. These days, I've been thinking about it. My strategy for the Qing Dynasty must be done. It has fundamentally changed.”

Having said so much in one breath, Huang Taiji should have been unable to hold on, but everyone noticed that a blush appeared on Huang Taiji's face, and his spirit was obviously better.

I have to say about Huang Taiji's tenacity, and I have to admit the great power of the spirit.

"I have decided to bow down to the Ming court."

There was an instant commotion in the hall, and everyone began to discuss in low voices. If they were not concerned about Huang Taiji's body, some people might start to shout and object loudly.

Huang Taiji's eyes were unusually firm, apparently he had made up his mind.

"I know that you are not convinced, so I will naturally give my reasons."

After Huang Taiji spoke, the hall quickly fell silent, and everyone knew that there must be a reason for Huang Taiji to make this decision, otherwise he would not have said it casually.

"I have made it clear that my biggest enemy of the Qing Dynasty is not the Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, nor the many civil and military ministers in the Ming court, but Su Tiancheng."

"I can even say that without this Su Tiancheng, my Qing Dynasty would have fulfilled its dream of conquering the Central Plains. Thinking about the previous situation, I led troops into the customs at that time and was invincible. No Ming army dared to fight. They are all running away. Although I lead the army and go deep alone, there is little time to worry. But after the rise of the Jiangning Camp, my Qing Dynasty basically has no such opportunities. The twelfth brother once led the army to besiege Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou. In other places, I also led an army to defeat the Liaodong frontier army, almost captured Chen Xinjia and Qian Qianyi alive, and almost took down the Guanning Jin defense line in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, I failed. , but Su Tiancheng grasped my vital point and forced me to make adjustments."

"Every time I think of this, my heart hurts."

"I adjusted my strategy and bowed my head to Daming to target Su Tiancheng."

When Huang Taiji said these words, many people were stunned, and some people smiled. Daishan, Dorgon, Jierhalang and others basically understood the meaning.

"I'm very pleased. Someone finally understands my painstaking efforts. Well, Haoge will speak for me about the rest of the matter."

Hauge cleared his throat and spoke, Hauge's voice was much louder.

"Father is thinking about bowing his head to the Ming court in exchange for the opportunity of our Qing Dynasty to recuperate. As long as our Qing Dynasty bows its head and bows its head as a minister, the Chongzhen Emperor of Ming Dynasty will not regard our Qing Dynasty as the biggest enemy and opponent. , but the Han people always like to fight each other, internal strife is the habit of the Han people."

"Father analyzed it carefully. Su Tiancheng is indeed brave. He may even destroy our Qing Dynasty. However, Su Tiancheng is also a minister of Ming Dynasty, and he has to listen to the Emperor Chongzhen. Once our Qing Dynasty bows his head and becomes a minister, Su Tiancheng will be so powerful. Wouldn't it be that he would be suspected by Emperor Chongzhen, the so-called master of high merit, Su Tiancheng's life will not be easy."

"Father has concluded that the Qing Dynasty bowed its head and proclaimed itself a vassal. Emperor Chongzhen felt safe and there was no threat, so he had to free up his hands to deal with Su Tiancheng. This is the habit of the Ming court, and it has been like this for hundreds of years."

Everyone started to discuss again. If Huang Taiji's decision is carefully analyzed, it is indeed a good decision. Let the Emperor Ming take action to get rid of Su Tiancheng. When Su Tiancheng is purged, the Qing Dynasty can start again. Conquered, finally wiped out Daming, and dominated the Central Plains.

"Of course, my father is also worried about how to convince the Ming court that I, the Qing Dynasty, bowed my head and proclaimed myself a vassal. For this reason, my father made three decisions."

"The first decision is that from now on, the imperial court will not use the title of the Qing Dynasty unless it is discussed in the Chongde Hall."

"The second decision is to send hostages to the capital of the Ming Dynasty to show the sincerity of the Qing Dynasty. The emperor has decided to let Fulin enter the capital of the Ming Dynasty. Concubine Zhuang will also go to the capital of the Ming Dynasty together."

"The third decision is to send Prince Zheng Jierhalang as a plenipotentiary representative to enter the capital of Daming again to negotiate with the Ming court. The emperor knows that this negotiation is very difficult, so he gave Prince Zheng full power. There are some matters that do not need to be reported. , You can make a decision on your own, the negotiation time cannot be delayed, the sooner the better, so that we can buy time for our Qing Dynasty to breathe."

Inside the main hall, it became quiet again. Everyone knew that it was not easy for Huang Taiji to make this decision. This meant that the Qing Dynasty had to make many concessions, and might even lose Yaozhou and Haizhou. (To be continued..)
