Cutting over the end of the Ming Dynasty: a dog-leg knife at the beginning

Chapter 826
His Majesty the Emperor's fire made all the civil and military officials train like grandsons. They were all silent. In addition to fear, they also realized more deeply that this emperor was out of their control, and they could no longer control him as before. He unscrupulously ruined the affairs of the country to the point of no return, then clapped his hands and stepped aside, passing all the responsibilities onto the emperor!
Damn Yang Menglong, it was all his fault!Without his backing, how could Chongzhen have the courage to throw the table with them!

Sooner or later you will be killed!

The civil servants who had been scolded for a while were secretly ruthless in their hearts, and at the same time silently reviewed N kinds of tricks, ruthless tricks, and damaging tricks that would kill people. Although these tricks were useless to Yang Menglong, they were not To prevent them from lusting after Yang Menglong fell into their hands, he was made to live a wonderful life that he could not survive or die.

But there is no way to solve substantive problems after all, and no matter how hard they grit their teeth, they can't change the fact that the status of the generals group has risen with the tide.As the military generals group represented by Yang Menglong has achieved more and more brilliant records, Chongzhen has become more and more dependent on them. They want to suppress the generals group as unscrupulously as Yi Yi, and treat the generals as their own servants. Go, that can't be done.

Unless... change the emperor!
No, their reputation is already rotten. Even if they change to another emperor, they may not be as obedient to them as before. The best way is to change to another dynasty!
It has to be said that Yang Menglong's record is inversely proportional to the relationship between the monarch and his ministers in the Forbidden City. The more brilliant Yang Menglong's victory is, the worse the relationship between Chongzhen and Wenchen Group will be. Even Chongzhen didn't realize that his hearty swearing had already An irreparable rift was drawn between him and the officials, and this rift quietly expanded at an astonishing speed, eventually leading to a terrible disaster.

Huang Taiji, who was far outside the pass, obviously also smelled this unusual smell, and those extremely sharp eyes burst out with a fierce light like purple lightning, like a vulture seeing carrion.

This year's future luck is still not improving, and even worse.The impact of the annihilation of the Shanxi Merchants and Traitor Group has affected all aspects of Houjin. Their food, iron materials, gunpowder, cotton cloth, salt, paint and other strategic materials are becoming increasingly scarce, even if they are willing to pay a higher price than before. The price, and there is no way to buy what he urgently needs from Xuanda. Even Jizhen is worried when he makes a deal with them. Every time the asking price is astonishingly high, but the transaction volume is pitifully small.On the contrary, the Guan Ning army brought seeds as usual, food, iron materials, cotton cloth, gunpowder...they didn't dare to sell anything, and they sold it much more crazily than before—probably because they had heard the wind, Said that the imperial court planned to let Denglai's new army replace them to guard the Shanhai Navy, and worried that there would be no such opportunities in the future, so they wanted to seize the time to make a big profit.Guan Ningjun's boldness is like a freshwater lake in the desert and an oxygen cylinder on a high mountain to Hou Jin. I sincerely thank them for giving Hou Jin a chance to breathe.

However, after all, Houjin is a country with a population of more than 200 million, and Houjin mainly relies on robbing to maintain the operation of the entire country. Compared with the Nurhachi era, agricultural production has not improved much.After Huang Taiji ascended the throne, he also made great efforts to develop farming. However, firstly, Houjin lacked human resources, and secondly, the Northeast was also suffering from severe drought and hailstorms. It became more and more difficult, and Huang Taiji's efforts were greatly reduced, so that Mang Gurtai, Duoduo and others complained that he was wasting his efforts. With this strength, it is better to think about how to break through Guan Ning and Xuan Da's defense line, and enter the battle. Go grab one, as long as you can break in again, you will have everything.

In April of this year, severe hailstorms also occurred in the Liaoheyuan area. Hail the size of pigeon eggs was wrapped in cold rain and slammed down. Eighty to ninety percent of the green wheat seedlings were smashed into green mud, and the nobles really wanted to cry without tears.This time, it is impossible for Huang Taiji to stay still. He must carry out a large-scale operation to grab enough loot from Daming so that his country can continue to support it, otherwise there is a danger of collapse!And his choices are pitifully few. Prosperity in Lushun is prosperity, but the nightmare that more than 3 people were wiped out by the Ming army in the Battle of Lushun is still lingering. Get revenge; robbing North Korea will definitely not work, those poor people are poorer than Houjin, even if North Korea is brought down, they won’t be able to grab much; the Ningyuan-Jinzhou area was just robbed last year, and it hasn’t recovered yet... After picking for a long time, everyone was shocked to find that the only place where they could attack was Xuan Da!

If so, do it!
In mid-June, Huang Taiji sent Dorgon and Duoduo to lead 2 horses to detour Mongolia and go straight to Datong.

Dorgon, who shoulders the heavy responsibility, has ten thousand beasts galloping and roaring in his heart... This damn fat old man, can he die if he doesn't give him a hard day? The defense line that stretches for hundreds of miles is impenetrable? That is the first army of the Ming Dynasty that is fully weaponized. Let alone their 2 horses, even if the Manchurian Eight Banners, Mongolian Eight Banners, and Han Eight Banners are all pressed up, they can't even think about it. Army!This damn fat man is determined to push them into the fire pit!But dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, work still needs to be done, let's get together and set off!

As a result, Hou Jin started the three consecutive kneeling mode against the Ming army.The Tianxiong army fought them smoothly. Seeing that Dorgon and Duoduo led the army to kill them, without saying a word, they gathered 2000 people and drove out of the side wall to fight. The borders of Shanxi, Shaanxi, Ningxia and even Gansu provinces The army tried its best to come to the rescue, and the two sides fought bloody on the front that stretched for dozens of miles.After handing over, Hou Jin was surprised to find that the morale of the Ming army was surprisingly high. Needless to say, the Tianxiong army was high-spirited. Not afraid of them at all.After a month of repeated probing and harassment, finally, the [-] Ming Army with the Lei Shisheng Army as the main force and the [-] Manchu and Mongolian Allied Army launched a decisive battle on the front line of Jining. Long soldiers, get off their horses immediately, advance boldly, fight repeatedly, one shot for another, one life for another, one dead team overwhelms another, one kills one and another comes again, even if the corpses are all over the battlefield He never took half a step back, even if Dorgon pushed all the [-] Banners up, it was useless.This time, the mighty Houjin powerhouse became the object of ridicule by the defeated generals of the past. There were constant Houjin officers and even generals who became ghosts under the knife of the Ming army. Their heads were cut off and sent to the capital on flying horses for Chongzhen to admire and show off. .After three days and three nights of hard fighting, the Manchu and Mongolian allied forces were finally defeated. The corpses of [-] Jin general soldiers and [-] Mongolian cavalrymen covered the battlefield.

From Dalinghe to Lushun, and then to Jining, Houjin had knelt down to the Ming army three times in a row.After the Battle of Daling River, it can be said that Jin knew nothing about the new army of the Ming army, and was caught off guard by the new army. In the Battle of Lushun, it can be said that the Ming army despicably used terrain, barbed wire, mines and other hateful things. It greatly weakened Houjin's combat effectiveness, and they were unconvinced by the defeat, but in the battle of Jining, they really had nothing to say.This time the Ming army faced them on the prairie of Yimapingchuan. The geographical advantage was completely on their side, and the strength of the Ming army was only equivalent to 2% of theirs. Only one legion was dispatched, but they were still defeated. They really couldn't find any reason except that their skills were inferior to others.Fortunately, Dorgon was defeated, but there was an unexpected harvest, that is, more than [-] Mongolian defeated troops were gathered, and they were brought back to Shenyang together with their families and herds. On the contrary, the troops were stronger than when they set out More than double.The result of this kind of fucking made Huang Taiji not know whether he was angry or laughed, but no matter what, it is always good to have more people. Naturally, Huang Taiji had no reason to refuse this great gift that came to his door, so he accepted it with a smile. As a result, his Mongolian Eight Banners doubled in size.

There were more people, and there were more mouths to eat, and the increasingly serious problem of eating made Huang Taiji feel devastated and restless.But he was not in a hurry at all, he just repeatedly told the banner owners to be patient, and there must be a turnaround.What supported his confidence was the increasingly tense atmosphere in the Forbidden City in Beijing.The secret agents lurking in Beijing would send back a large amount of information every once in a while, which excited Huang Taiji and Fan Wencheng. Fan Wencheng analyzed to Huang Taiji: "The Han and Tang Dynasties were good at martial arts. Sheng, but the trend of the feudal town gradually became, and it could not be replicated, and finally led to the tragedy of the collapse of the world, the lords vying for the throne, and the loss of life. The Song Dynasty learned from the lessons of the Han and Tang Dynasties, greatly promoted the style of writing, and suppressed the style of martial arts. Therefore, the Song Dynasty lasted for more than three hundred years. , There has never been a separatist regime, and Daming inherited this national policy, and it has not been shaken for more than 200 years. It has become an unwritten rule that the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats share the world! But Zhu Youjian, an ignorant child, fought several victories So he was so flamboyant and rejected the scholar-bureaucrats that he was courting death!"

Huang Taiji listened with interest: "Why did Fan Aiqing say this?"

Fan Wencheng proudly said: "If a person holds something for a long time, it is easy to take that thing as his own, and those scholar-officials are no exception! Since the Song Dynasty, the scholar-officials have dominated this country for 600 years. , no one can shake their position! Now Zhu Youjian is trying to support the military generals group to overthrow them in one fell swoop, those scholar-bureaucrats who have long regarded themselves as the real masters of the Ming Dynasty will not agree! Wait, it won’t take long, Daming will definitely Chaos, when the time comes, Daikin's opportunity will come!"

Huang Taiji took it for granted. After all, he had seen the death-killing skills of those scholar-bureaucrats long ago. If it weren’t for the unintentional help of those people who are endlessly living and dying, how would there be Houjin today? Now the scholar-bureaucrats Their status is being strongly impacted, and they will definitely increase their moves!

Fan Wencheng took the opportunity to persuade him to take it as a warning, and he must continue the national policy of advocating literature and suppressing martial arts in the future, and must not follow in Zhu Youjian's footsteps.On the surface, Huang Taiji agreed, but he secretly made up his mind: If Hou Jin really can win the world, he must reuse talents like Yang Menglong and Lu Xiangsheng.

However, Fan Wencheng's analysis does not seem to be very effective. The conflict between Chongzhen and the officials did not affect the continued siege of the Tianxiong Army and the Heluo New Army.In the northwest, the Tianxiong Army almost took the entire Hetao Plain into its pocket, while in the south, Yang Menglong beat Zheng Zhilong to the ground, and began to sharpen his sword against Xiyi who occupied Taiwan Island.Huang Taiji was very anxious about this, but Fan Wencheng seemed very sure about it, and said confidently: "Don't worry, King Khan, our opportunity is coming soon! The day Yang Menglong sets foot in Taiwan is the time when the golden age will turn... The servant advises King Khan to prepare for his enthronement!"

Well, Huang Taiji asked himself that he couldn't play with these bastard traitors, so he didn't bother to worry about it, and focused on preparing for his enthronement and proclaiming himself emperor.Before that, he was indecisive about the emperor. The majesty of the "Son of Heaven" has been rooted in the hearts of everyone in this land. No matter he is a Han or a barbarian, he knows that the "Son of Heaven" is supreme. You can be king and hegemony. But you must not be called emperor. Once you are called emperor, the heroes of the world will inevitably attack him. Now that Houjin is struggling, it seems inappropriate to call him emperor at this time.However, Fan Wencheng believed that the relationship between Chongzhen and the civil servants group had become very bad. At this time, when Huang Taiji proclaimed himself emperor and started a new stove, the civil servants of Ming Dynasty would definitely come to vote one after another.Well, these flamboyant Huang Taiji are really no match for Fan Wencheng. Fan Wencheng thinks that proclaiming emperor is good for Hou Jin, so proclaim him emperor!

Therefore, when Yang Menglong was intensively preparing to clean up the Xiyi on Taiwan Island, Huang Taiji was also intensively preparing to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.The entire Houjin is still very supportive of his claim to be emperor. The Jurchens think that your Zhu family can be the emperor. Why can’t our Aixinjueluo family be the emperor? The Mongols think that it is better to fight with the emperor than with a Khan. Some Han people think that after Huang Taiji proclaims their status as emperors, their status will also rise, and they may be able to live better... In short, everyone is very positive about this.

However, they never dreamed that Huang Taiji's proclaiming emperor would lead to an earth-shattering bloody battle between the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and almost all the main forces of the Ming and Qing armies would be blown up.

PS: There are a lot of things at the end of the year, and it is difficult to guarantee updates. I would like to say sorry to everyone here.
