Signed to Zhu Cihong, Prince of the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 159 Chapter 159, Hong Chengchou offers a plan to destroy the Ming Dynasty, Dorgon has another plan

Taiyuan City.

The gunpowder smoke gradually dissipated, and the city gate was fully opened.

Someone pushed a cart in and out, and countless corpses were thrown on the cart and thrown into mass graves outside the city.

If you look carefully, you can tell from the clothes and hair styles that all the corpses are Han Chinese.

The city was in a mess, the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty who had just entered the city were furious, venting wantonly in the city, women's screams were everywhere.

This was a scene like hell, but for Dorgon, it was the starting point of great excitement.

"Finally knocked down here." Standing on the wall of Taiyuan City, Dorgon couldn't help smiling as he looked around at the endless basin around him.

This city is located in the very center of Shanxi, and seizing it is equivalent to controlling the northern half of the Taihang Mountains.

Next, as long as this place is firmly managed, it will become another great foundation for Manchuria!
There was a sound of footsteps, Duoduo walked over excitedly, and shouted: "Brother Wang, why are you... ouch!"

Duoduo suddenly slipped and fell down hard.

Seeing Duo Duo's appearance, Dorgon couldn't help but frown, and said, "What are you doing, playing with women is too imaginary?"

Doduo, who got up again, smiled a little embarrassedly, and said to Dorgon: "Brother, why don't you try it? I have already left the most beautiful woman to you."

There was a hint of emotion in Dorgon's eyes, but he still reprimanded: "The war is not over yet, if you are so obsessed with sex, if the Ming army comes, how much strength do you still have to fight? "

Duoduo laughed and said: "Don't worry, brother, my strength is absolutely fine, killing him a hundred Minggou is no problem."

Dorgon shook his head, obviously disapproving of Duo Duo's words.

Duoduo changed the topic very cleverly: "Brother, why are you standing here? It is impossible for the Ming army to appear here. By the way, there is news just now, it seems to be an order from Shengjing, do you want to to see?"

Dorgon shook his head, walked towards the city wall, and said, "I'm thinking, if the Qing Dynasty really wants to destroy the Ming Dynasty, where should we send troops in the future."

Duoduo smiled and said, "Where else can I go? Of course, I went straight from Shanhaiguan all the way to Beijing."

Dorgon snorted, and said: "Ming people think the same way. We have fought countless battles with Ming people in the past few decades. Don't you know how difficult it is to break through the Shanhaiguan line of defense? ?”

Duoduo said: "But hasn't the Ningjin defense line of the Ming Kingdom in the northeast been broken by us?"

Dorgon got into the carriage and said, "It took 15 years to do it. I don't have the patience to wait another 15 years!"

The two of them sat in a carriage and came all the way to a mansion in Shanxi City, which looked ordinary on the outside, but was very grand and magnificent on the inside.

This is the house of Fan Yongdou, the master of Jin merchants in Shanxi. As one of the eight Jin merchants with the closest contacts with the Qing Dynasty, the Fan family is naturally a small matter to donate a house to the master.

I saw that the scale and shape of this house are very amazing, with three entrances and three exits, and there are garden corridors dotted in it. It is obviously an important town in the north, but it gives people a sense of Jiangnan style invisibly.

Dorgon was familiar with the family and took Duduo back to the lobby. Someone sent him a message from Shengjing.

As the assistant king, Dorgon didn't have to kneel down, he just took the order and read it, then frowned.

"This old man Jierhalang has quite a lot of tricks." Dorgon snorted, obviously dissatisfied.

Seeing this, Duoduo said, "Brother Wang, what happened?"

Dorgon threw the will to Duo Duo, saying: "You can see for yourself."

Duoduo looked at it and found that it was mainly a list of appointments of some Manchu officials.

Without exception, the names of these officials belonged to the Jierhalang faction, while many of the officials who were dismissed or removed from office belonged to the Dorgon and Duduo factions.

Duoduo's face suddenly became gloomy, and he said angrily, "This Jierhalang really thinks he is the emperor? Just replace the officials so casually?"

Dorgon said indifferently: "He is the assistant king. Now that His Majesty is young and I am outside, it is not wrong to say that he is half an emperor."

Duoduo said angrily: "Brother Wang, you can't let Jierhalang continue to be so arrogant. This is the same for His Majesty and Queen Mother. Can't you limit Jierhalang?"

Dorgon laughed and said, "What use are they orphans and widowed mothers? Sending this imperial decree is already pretty good. But don't worry, the internal affairs of the Qing Dynasty will still be dealt with with fists after all." Whoever has the biggest fist is the real ruler. I won Datong and Taiyuan this time, but Jierhalang was defeated in Shanhaiguan. When my squadron returns to the court, what will he use to fight me?"

While speaking, Dorgon was full of confidence, and he had the momentum to reprimand Fang Qiu.

After a pause, Dorgon said again: "By the way, I think the Han general's daughter is quite beautiful. You haven't ruined my business, have you?"

Duoduo hurriedly said: "What is the brother talking about? How could I rob brother's woman? That woman has already been cleaned, and I'm just waiting for brother to be lucky."

The two looked at each other and laughed.

Dorgon said: "Our women in the Qing Dynasty are too tough, but the Han women are as gentle as water."

Duoduo said: "That's right, it's white and tender to the touch, not like those women, hey, it's all prickly when you touch it, it's painful!"

The two made complaints about Manchurian and Mongolian women, and then began to share food.

The atmosphere has always been very warm, until a news came suddenly.

A Manchu Qing official came in a hurry and told Dorgon a news: "The assistant king, just got the news that Li Zicheng suffered a big defeat in Yongnian City and fled to Henan!"

Dorgon's expression changed: "What?"

Duoduo's face also changed, and then he couldn't help complaining: "This Li Zicheng is really a person who has more success than failure, and he loses battles again and again, which is useless!"

Dorgon was silent for a moment, then said: "Perhaps not so."

Doduo was surprised: "Then what else could be the reason?"

Dorgon breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It may also be because Li Zicheng's opponent is too strong."

Duoduo was stunned when he heard the words, and then said disapprovingly: "Brother Wang, you mean Zhu Cihong, the prince of the Ming Dynasty? He is only a 15-year-old kid, how strong can he be?"

Dorgon said lightly: "It's this 15-year-old guy who beat Ji Erhalang, who has followed his father and brother for more than 20 years, to the ground. Do you still want to say that Ji Erhalang is nothing special? Let me tell you directly, Jierharan is much better at fighting than you!"

Dorgon's robbing directly made Duo Duo blushed and unable to come down to the stage, and was completely speechless with embarrassment.

After a while, Duoduo said: "Then Li Zicheng lost, what should we do now?"

Dorgon also fell into deep thought.

After a while, Dorgon said: "Come on, call Hong Chengchou!"

Hong Chengchou came and knelt on the ground: "Slave Hong Chengchou has seen the two masters."

Dorgon didn't talk nonsense, and directly told Hong Chengchou the current situation, saying: "What do you think?"

Hong Chengchou thought for a while and said, "I feel that after Li Zicheng's failure this time, he should be put down by the Ming Kingdom soon."

Duoduo sneered from the side: "Pingding? Li Zicheng has lived in Ming Dynasty for 15 years!"

Hong Chengchou said sternly: "In the past 15 years, Li Zicheng spent most of his time wandering around the Central Plains, Shanxi, Shaanxi and other places. It was not until the beginning of this year that he really established his Dashun Kingdom. It is precisely because of this that before The current Li Zicheng may run away when he is exhausted, but the future Li Zicheng will not.”

Dorgon stroked the beard on his chin and said, "So according to your opinion, if one day the Ming army attacked Xi'an, the capital of Li Zicheng's Dashun Kingdom, that would be his death date?"

Hong Chengchou nodded very positively: "Indeed."

Dorgon said: "You continue talking."

Hong Chengchou said: "Although Li Zicheng was defeated, this is a good opportunity for the Qing Dynasty. On the one hand, master, you can continue to attack Shanxi. On the other hand, Shaanxi may also become your target in the future."

Dorgon didn't speak, but Duoduo said: "These are the northern frontiers of the Ming Kingdom, what's the use here?"

Hong Chengchou said: "If the Qing Dynasty took these places, then the territory would have surpassed the Daliao Kingdom back then."

Dorgon snorted, and said: "If you take it, you may be beaten back by the Ming Dynasty. The Liao Kingdom has Youyun Sixteen Prefectures, but the Qing Dynasty does not."

Hong Chengchou nodded and said: "This is indeed a hidden danger, but in any case, would the Qing Dynasty despise too much land?"

Dorgon waved his hand and said, "You can get out, Hong Chengchou."

So Hong Chengchou went away.

Duoduo said: "Brother Wang, do you want to follow Hong Chengchou's words?"

Dorgon shook his head: "A slave, how could I be led by his nose? But some of his words are right."

Dodo said, "What are you talking about?"

Dorgon said: "The Qing Dynasty should continue to expand. We should contact Junggar and Qinghai Heshuote Mongolia to see if they are interested in carve-up of the Ming Kingdom. Well, also, send envoys to the Ming Kingdom. Said that I want to negotiate with the Ming country."

Duoduo was surprised: "Negotiation? The Ming Dynasty has never negotiated with us."

Dorgon laughed and said: "That's because we have been looking for the wrong person all the time. Although Chongzhen is a waste, his bones are indeed quite hard, and it is useless to talk to him. This time, we We need a new negotiating partner."

Duoduo said, "Then who do we want to talk to?"

Dorgon snapped his fingers and said with a smile, "Of course I'm talking to that Ming prince Zhu Cilang!"

While speaking, Dorgon's eyes shone with light, and his smile looked like a sinister fox!
