Chapter 897 Sending Troops to Luoyang
Hearing Gao Yihuan's words, Ma Hongshan was slightly taken aback, and immediately reacted, thinking: "This leather workshop is not very important. It does not produce leather armor, but makes some leather belts and leather boots. No wonder the king of Wei wants to come and guide him personally. So it was because of this!"

After entering the workshop, King Wei was absent-minded and not very happy. He thought that King Wei was not satisfied with the production. Now that he understood, Ma Hongshan wanted to slap himself. Prepare silver notes for the king."

"Haha~ Don't worry~ Lonely King is just asking casually! Don't think too much!" Gao Yihuan had a smile on his face, "Come on, let's continue to look."

In fact, in less than two years since Shanxi was recovered, although Ma Hongshan has taken over many workshops and shops, he has not fully grasped the original trading channels, and has not earned any money. Instead, he has invested a lot of capital. I really dare not owe.

Moreover, the wool comes from the sheep, and the money Ma Hongshan gave to King Wei, even if he is a member of King Wei, no local officials would dare to trouble him, and with the help of King Wei, he can quickly form a monopoly, and he is afraid of making money Not enough money?

Ma Hongshan wiped his sweat secretly, and quickly apologized with a smile: "This is what it should be, it's because the villain is not thoughtful enough."

When the group continued to move forward, Ma Hongshan hurriedly ordered the shopkeeper to accompany Gao Yihuan to continue the inspection.

At this time, Gao Yihuan had achieved his goal, so he was not interested in looking at the leather factory outside Ma Yuanwai. After looking at a few finished products, he felt that they were actually relatively ordinary, so he returned to Taiyuan.

On the way back, Gao Yihuan looked at the fields near Taiyuan again. Now that the autumn harvest was over, there were no patches of wheat in sight, but the piles of wheat grass in the field showed that this year's harvest should be good.

In the evening, Gao Yihuan returned to the Taiyuan Palace. Zhou Daji stepped forward to hold the reins and reported, "Your Majesty, the people from Xingqing Company just sent you a batch of gifts."

"Oh, so fast!" Gao Yihuan got off his horse, handed the whip to his subordinates, and walked in, smiling, "Where's the thing? Show it to the lonely king!"

"Put it in the king's study!" Zhou Daji replied.

Gao Yihuan strode into the palace, then went directly to his study, and sure enough, he saw a tray on the desk covered with a piece of red cloth.

Gao Yihuan sat on a chair, opened the red cloth, and revealed a pair of boxes, each containing a century-old ginseng, and under the box was a small wooden box. Gao Yihuan opened it with a smile on his face, and put a stack of ginseng inside The bank note was taken out.

These are all large camp tickets of 1000 taels. Gao Yihuan counted them to 20 taels in total, a total of [-] taels. A satisfied smile immediately appeared on his face.

With this amount of money, this year will be much better.

Fortunately, it was in Taiyuan, otherwise Ma Hongshan probably wouldn't be able to spend so much money at once, and after Gao Yihuan took the money, it would be convenient for Ma Hongshan in the future. As long as he doesn't do too much, Gao Yihuan is willing to maintain this kind of money for a long time relation.

In mid-October, after Gao Yihuan stayed in Taiyuan for a period of time, seeing that Dorgon hadn't made any further moves, he returned to Guanzhong, and began to inspect the Dajiang Academy, as well as the work of book translation, and continued to spread money.

At the same time, Jin Shenghuan, who received the order from Luoyang, began to send troops to form a formation, and arranged for the Wei army in Nanyang, Tongguan, and southern Shanxi, with a total of [-] troops, to rush to Luoyang.

After the Wei army occupied Hedong, Luoyang was under attack from three sides by the Wei army, and was completely passive strategically.

Dorgun had prepared to give up Luoyang many times before, but considering Luoyang's political status and the status of the capital of the world, he had not been able to make up his mind to give up. It was not until he decided to withdraw from the customs that he made up his mind completely.

It's just that he didn't make this determination for a long time, but it changed because of the end of the Liaoxi campaign.

There is no other reason. It takes time to sail across the Liao Dynasty. Luoyang guards it, whether it can be guarded or not, it can exchange space for time.

In November 1650, after a month of mobilizing troops and generals, Jin Shenghuan commanded three groups of soldiers and horses, Wu Shizhao led 11 soldiers out of Nanyang and went north to Ruzhou, and Bai Wen selected 2 soldiers to go south to attack Huaiqing. [-] soldiers left Tongguan, and the three armies joined forces in Luoyang to encircle and wipe out the Luoyang defenders.

After the Wei army occupied Hedong and Luoyang became a bulge, it was in an extremely passive strategic situation, and the Qing army in Luoyang was in danger of being besieged at any time.

Therefore, in the past two years, the Qing government had no intention of governing Henan. It only cared about land and transferred supplies out of Henan, causing thieves, grassroots bandits, and rebels in northern Henan to swarm into a mess.

After Jin Shenghuan's troops left Tongguan, they made a big announcement that the three armies of the Wei Dynasty encircled Luoyang, and each army falsely claimed [-].

The scouts of the Wei army had already found out that there would be no more than 2 defenders in northern Henan. Many generals thought it was unnecessary to make such a big noise. It looks lively and increases the influence of the Luoyang campaign.

The rebels in northern Henan had written letters earlier, hoping that the Wei army would attack northern Henan, but now they just heard that the Wei army was coming, so they launched attacks one after another, occupying the county town, and waiting to be recruited.

Before the Wei army entered northern Henan, the rebels and grass bandits from all walks of life fought on their own. They attacked each other just to occupy more territory so that they could obtain better conditions when recruiting.

In mid-November, when the Wei army entered northern Henan, Ruzhou, Shengchi, Xin'an, Mengjin, Hanoi and other places fell upon hearing the wind, causing chaos in Luoyang and a great earthquake in the world.

~~~~~~
Nanjing, Bauhinia City, inside the Royal Study Room.

At this time, the news that the Wei army had captured Jinzhou had already spread to Nanjing, and at the same time there was news that the Wei army would attack Luoyang.

Zhu Cihong sat behind the case with a sullen face, looking at the secret letter Dorgon gave him.

In the letter, Dorgon expressed the hope that Zhu Cihong could give him a batch of ships and sailors so that he could return to Liaodong by sea. In return, Dorgon guaranteed that after he returned to Liaodong, the Wei army would attack the Ming army. At that time, he would send troops to contain the Wei army, so that the Wei army could not attack Jiangnan with all its strength.

Zhu Cihong read the letter with a gloomy face, without saying a word, then lit the letter and burned it.

After a while, he looked at Ruan Dacheng who had stood with his hands down for a while, and said coldly, "There is no need to press the food, it can be transported to Dorgon, but neither the boat nor the craftsman!"

Ruan Dacheng shuddered, and found that Zhu Cihong was exuding a cold aura, which made people feel frightened.

Ruan Dacheng hesitated for a while, but still reminded: "Your Majesty, will this damage the relationship between the two families?"

Zhu Cilang snorted coldly, and said in a cold voice: "The high-ranking thief has controlled the west of Liaoning, and Jiannu has been blocked in the customs. If you give them a boat, Jiannu has no intention of resisting the high-ranking thief, and only wants to evacuate. I won't give Jiannu a boat. They can only fight desperately with the high thief, you don't have to worry about anything else."

Zhu Cihong's reluctance to give the ship, and his previous reluctance to hand over the food, was actually for one reason, that is, he was afraid that the Qing army would escape from the pass.

Now that the Wei army occupies Jinzhou, and Gao Yihuan's capital is in Xi'an, even if the Qing army withdraws from outside the pass, it may not be of much help at that time. Therefore, Zhu Cihuang thinks it is better to let the Qing army hold back the Wei army inside the pass.Dorgon has no way out, he must fight to the death, but it can buy him time.

Zhu Cihong is trying to force Dorgon to fight Wei Jun to death, but does Dorgon still have the strength?If the Wei army quickly defeated the Qing army, I am afraid that the Qing army not only failed to contain it, but also weakened the strength of this helper.

Ruan Dacheng frowned slightly, "Your Majesty, Jianu is no longer the opponent of the Wei thief. Wouldn't this allow the Wei thief to completely defeat Jiannu?"

Zhu Cihong said in a deep voice: "The situation has reached this point, I can no longer shrink back, and will give some substantial help to Jiannu so that Dorgon can last longer. I have received a secret report that the Wei thief is preparing to attack Luoyang. You pass the secret decree to Lord Jingguo for me, let him find an excuse to stir up some troubles in Wuchang, increase troops in Wuchang, and put some pressure on the Wei thieves~~~~~~"
