Ming politicians

May 25.

The army is about to pass through Ningyuan City. Dorgon will lead 3 people to station near Ningyuan City. In fact, Dorgon's most important task is to prevent the Ming army from attacking the army from behind, and also to entangle the Ming army. The army cannot retreat, and then Huang Taiji will lead the army to quickly fight back and destroy the reinforcements of the Ming army. This time the siege and reinforcements are the same as Chongzhen's four-year tactics, but the methods used are different.

The reason why they took more than [-] soldiers to attack Shanhaiguan was not because they wanted to take Shanhaiguan, but to attract the Ming army to come for reinforcements. The news that the army besieged Shanhaiguan would spread quickly, forcing the Ming army in Liaodong to come to reinforce. It also made the Ming court even more chaotic.The more sergeants attacking Shanhaiguan, the greater the chaos.

The weather is hot, and the army will rest at noon. For the two days of marching, they all set out at Yin time and stopped marching at Hai time.

When the eunuchs in the palace entered the tent of the Chinese army, Huang Taiji's face turned pale.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Chen is critically ill..."

Huang Taiji's body shook a bit. If the concubine Chen hadn't fallen seriously ill, the eunuchs would not have come here. In this regard, the empress knows the rules. Since the eunuchs are here, it means that the concubine Chen may disappear Yu died.

In desperation, Huang Taiji asked the eunuch about many things.

Hauge, Fan Wencheng and the others were all in the tent of the Chinese army, and their complexions were not very good.

After the eunuch finished reporting, Huang Taiji waved his hand to signal everyone to leave the tent of the Chinese army.

Hauge and Fan Wencheng came out side by side.

"Master Fan, I never expected that there would be something wrong with your empress' health at such a critical moment."

"My lord, this servant didn't think about it either, but to be honest, this servant is not very worried about Concubine Chen's health. What this servant is worried about is whether the emperor will return to Shenyang."

Hauge was a little surprised and looked at Fan Wencheng.

"No, the front is so urgent, how could the father return to Shenyang, what should we do with such an army of hundreds of thousands."

Fan Wencheng looked at Hauge, and took a while before speaking.

"The emperor loves the concubine Chen very much. I don't want to say this, the prince knows it. Now that the eunuch is here, if it is not an emergency, how could he come? The slave's words are not good, and the concubine Chen may not be able to survive this. It's time, although the emperor is worrying about the big affairs of my Qing Dynasty, but the concubine Chen's body has something wrong. She may even ascend to heaven. No one dares to hide such things from the emperor. If the emperor knows, the empress and empress will not It's easy to explain."

Hauge nodded.

"What Master Fan said is true. I think it is very possible. It's just that the father has returned to Shenyang. Will the situation here change? The hundreds of thousands of troops can't be delayed."

"If the slave guesses correctly, the prince must be prepared. The emperor will most likely ask the prince to lead the army and complete all the next combat missions. This is the prince's best chance."

At this time, Hauge also understood that if Huang Taiji returned to Shenyang.The Marshal can only be born among the two, either he, Hauge, or Dorgon, it cannot be anyone else, but he is by Huang Taiji's side.It seems that he is responsible for commanding the army. If Dorgon is in charge, someone in the army may have already informed Dorgon by this time, and he hastened over.

"Master Fan, if my father asks me to lead the army, I ask for your assistance."

"My lord, don't say that, it's the duty of a slave."

A smile appeared on Hauge's face, and he patted Fan Wencheng's shoulder vigorously.

Fan Wencheng quickly entered the account of the Chinese army.

"Wen Cheng, Concubine Chen's body has a serious problem. I decided to rush back to Shenyang, at least to see Concubine Chen. You advised me on this matter before. I remember it very clearly. Concubine may not be able to hold on this time, if I can't see the last side, I can't bear it."

"Your Majesty, this servant thinks that Concubine Chen has a problem with her body, and the Emperor should go and have a look. I think Concubine Chen is a wealthy person, and her health will definitely get better."

Huang Taiji shook his head, a slight sadness appeared in his eyes.

"Wen Cheng, who do you think is the most suitable for leading the army?"

"The emperor is the clearest about this matter, and the slave dare not speak nonsense."

Looking at Fan Wencheng, Huang Taiji squeezed out a smile.

"Wen Cheng, you know me best, go ask Hauge to come in."

Hauge quickly entered the Chinese military account.

Huang Taiji has put away his sad emotions, and your spirit is now in good spirits.

"Haoge, Concubine Chen is not feeling well. I need to return to Shenyang. You are responsible for leading the army. How to deploy and how to fight have already been arranged. You must strictly follow the requirements. You have been with me for many years. Conquest, I don’t want to say anything more, you remember two points, one is to seek more advice from Dorgon, Fan Wencheng and others, and the other is to always keep in mind the ultimate goal of this battle..."

It is impossible for Huang Taiji to be completely at ease, but Concubine Chen's body has captured his heart. If he cannot return to the capital and see Concubine Chen, he will be restless for the rest of his life. He also knows that the current situation is extraordinary. If he personally leads the army, the effect will be much better, but it is a pity that he cannot put down Concubine Chen.

After all the arrangements were made, Huang Taiji was ready to set off, and the guards had already made preparations for departure. It would take less than a thousand miles to go to Shenyang, and it would take two days at most to arrive on a fast horse. Each of the guards was equipped with three fine horses. Speed ​​is no problem.

When Huang Taiji stood up and was about to walk out of the tent of the Chinese army, Monk Ye Bushu, who had no trace of blood on his face, was happily brought in by his personal guards.

It was gratifying to see Monk Ye Busu, Huang Taiji's body shook, and an ominous feeling emerged.

Seeing Huang Taiji, Ye Busu cried and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, my servants are incompetent, and the entire navy was wiped out. Su Tiancheng led the Jiangning Battalion, raided Shuangdao and Lushun, and occupied Fuzhou, Yongning, Xuancheng, Tieshan, Xuanzhou and other places. If Shang Kexi didn't protect the servants , I'm afraid I won't be able to see the emperor..."

Inside the Chinese military tent, there was a deathly silence, no one spoke, and no one dared to speak.

Huang Taiji's face turned ashen in an instant. He always thought that Su Tiancheng didn't make any moves. Even because of this, he somewhat looked down on Su Tiancheng, and even laughed at the incompetent Chongzhen. Unexpectedly, Su Tiancheng had such a big power. Action, you must know that almost all the elite soldiers of the Qing Dynasty have come to Liaodong. The defenses in Gaizhou, Haizhou and Yaozhou are relatively empty. If Su Tiancheng takes advantage of the victory and advances, it is very likely to take these places and directly threaten them. When they arrived in Shenyang, the threats this time were not just lip service. If Su Tiancheng and Jiang Ningying besieged Shenyang, it would be a catastrophe for the Qing Dynasty.

Huang Taiji suddenly laughed out loud.

"It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous. I never understood why Su Tiancheng didn't make any movement. It turned out that he played such a big game of chess. I was here to attack Shanhaiguan, but he went to attack my capital from behind. , He is thinking of completely destroying my Qing Dynasty. I really didn't think of it, I didn't think of it, why is this Su Tiancheng so powerful? Is it so unfair to let this Su Tiancheng destroy my world? Foundation..."

Huang Taiji laughed out loud, and even burst into tears.

Suddenly, Huang Taiji clutched his chest in pain, and a mouthful of blood spewed out.

Everyone was a little panicked. At this time, Fan Wencheng acted differently. He knew very well that Concubine Chen was critically ill. Su Tiancheng wiped out the Great Qingshui Division, occupied Xuanzhou, Yongning and Xuancheng, and directly threatened Daqing. The capital of the Qing Dynasty has collapsed. Under such circumstances, it is difficult for Huang Taiji to withstand such a blow. The more he is in such a situation, the more he needs to calm down. Comforting Huang Taiji is useless, he must be stimulated.

Fan Wencheng stepped forward, pulled Haoge, Ye Bushu and the others away roughly, and knelt down in front of Huang Taiji.

"Your Majesty, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. This time, our Qing Dynasty has achieved a great victory, and almost wiped out the Ming Dynasty's frontier army in Liaodong. Su Tiancheng used a trick to take down Xuanzhou and other places. It is indeed a threat." We have arrived at the capital of the Qing Dynasty. At such a critical moment, the emperor needs to calm down. The more critical the moment, the people also need to rely on the emperor. The slaves thought that the emperor should not be discouraged. The concubine Chen is seriously ill, and our navy of the Qing Dynasty is destroyed , the city was occupied by Su Tiancheng, so many blows, the emperor may be unbearable, but the emperor is a real dragon emperor, no matter how big the crisis is, he can bear it, these things, put on the slave, the slave must be If there is no other way, I implore the emperor to preside over the crisis and revitalize the Qing Dynasty."

Huang Taiji looked at Fan Wencheng, his eyes became clearer and clearer, he raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"Wen Cheng, get up quickly."

"If the emperor does not issue an order, the slave will not get up."

"Okay, okay, Wen Cheng, I really thank you this time, I will never collapse, I am the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, so many warriors of my Qing Dynasty look at me, how can I let them down, Chen Chen The concubine is my beloved concubine, but I know that the country needs me, and if the concubine Chen is alive, she will support my actions."

Hearing what Huang Taiji said, Fan Wencheng got up quickly.

A trace of blood appeared on Huang Taiji's pale face.

"I have decided that the army will withdraw. The Zhengbai Banner, Xiangbai Banner, Zhenglan Banner, and Xianglan Banner governed by the Han Eight Banners will guard Heishan with [-] soldiers. The Han Eight Banners will govern the Zhenghong Banner and Xianghong Banner. Fifteen thousand soldiers will guard Yizhou , Dorgon ordered Zhengbai Banner to guard Guangning, and the army returned to Shenyang with me, so I must personally deal with this Su Tiancheng."

The action started quickly, Huang Taiji couldn't let go of his hatred, and ordered the retreating army to destroy all the crops and houses wherever they passed, and if they encountered Han people on the way, they would be killed.

Su Tiancheng, who is far away in Yongning, would never have dreamed that he not only changed history, but because he threatened the regime of Hou Jin, he actually cheered up Huang Taiji from his grief. After returning to Shenyang, Concubine Chen The empress had died of illness, and after crying bitterly, Huang Taiji quickly forgot about it and began to deploy troops to deal with the crisis.
