Signed to Zhu Cihong, Prince of the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 371 Chapter 371, Dorgon made a plan to seek peace, Zhu Cihuang instantly killed the messenger

The consequences of the failed ambush soon became apparent.

Since Dorgon led the main force of the Qing army back to the front, Azig's troops retreated very smoothly.

When Azige saw Dorgon, he was still at a loss: "Why did the Ming people discover it?"

Looking at Azige's appearance, Dorgon suddenly regretted it.

If someone else leads the army to ambush, maybe they won't be discovered?

Dorgon calmed down, and said lightly: "Take a good rest, we have to continue our journey tomorrow."

That night, the Qing army camped at the exit of Daxiepozi.

A little later, Dorgon suddenly got a top-secret news from Shengjing City.

"What, Hauge launched an attack, taking the orders of the Queen Mother and His Majesty the Emperor, to arrest Jierhalang and put him in the prison?"

After hearing the news, Dorgon couldn't hide his shock.

For a long time, Dorgon felt that Jierhalang was the number one opponent, and all calculations and preparations were aimed at dealing with Jierharang.

As a result, he was about to leave the prairie and enter Liaodong, and it was only a few days away from Shengjing. The opponent turned from Jierhalang to Hauge?

After getting the confirmation, Dorgon's thoughts suddenly fell into a huge entanglement.

"Hauge, how could it be Hauge?"

Dorgon was quite irritable.

Dorgon thought it would be a good thing to replace Jierharang in Shengjing with someone else, except for Hauge.

Judging from the current situation under Dorgon's control, Jierharang ordered Hauge to do what Dorgon did, and Hauge, as the eldest son of Huang Taiji, had competed with Dorgon for the throne back then. is very profound.

After hearing the news, Azig also fell silent with an ugly expression.

"How dare the Empress Dowager betray us?" Azig said angrily.

Dorgon glanced at Azige, and there was some special meaning in his eyes, which made Azige's neck shrink involuntarily, and his momentum was a little stagnant.

Azige said embarrassingly: "The empress dowager...she just sat and watched Duoduo being captured by Jierharang, didn't she?"

Dorgon shook his head, and said slowly, "Da Yuer...huh, she's just a girl, do you really expect her to be able to turn the tide against that old fox Jierhalang?"

"On the other hand, Hauge, you need to be vigilant. If you don't deal with it well, you and my brothers will die without a place to bury!"

Azig took a breath, and said with some anxiety: "Then what should we do?"

Dorgon's eyes flickered, as if he had made up his mind.

"Come here with your ears, and I'll explain to you."

……

Li Dingguo excitedly brought a person to Zhu Cihong: "Your Highness, the envoy from the Duke of England is here!"

Zhu Cihong glanced at the envoy, and was a little surprised: "Uncle Xiangcheng, it's you?"

Li Guozhen smiled and cupped his hands to salute Zhu Cihong: "I have seen Your Highness, and the Lord of England asks me to say hello to His Highness on his behalf."

It is indeed surprising that the British Duke sent his deputy Li Guozhen directly.

Since they were still on the march, several people talked while walking.

The first thing Zhu Cihong asked was naturally the war in Liaodong.

Li Guozhen said excitedly: "Thanks to your highness's great talent and general strategy, the main force of Dorgon's slave-building army was restrained in the grassland. The minister and the British Duke were able to smoothly collect a lot of land from the Ming Dynasty all the way, and went straight to the city of Shengjing."

"Now, all the land that Jiannu seized from our Ming Dynasty in the decades after Nurhachi's death has been recovered!"

Hearing Li Guozhen's words, all the Daming people present showed excited expressions on their faces.

Nuharchi's death was already 20 years ago.

In the past 20 years, Daming has basically lost nothing when facing the Manchus. Not only is Liaodong completely gone, but even Liaoxi has basically fallen into the hands of the Manchus.

Now, the first battle of Ming Dynasty brought back all the humiliation of the past 20 years. Who would feel uncomfortable hearing this?
Zhu Cihong also smiled, and said, "So, where is the Duke of England now?"

Li Guozhen smiled and said: "Naturally, they are outside Shenyang City, waiting to join forces with His Highness, and completely destroy Jiannu!"

After a pause, Li Guozhen said again: "Of course the Duke of England also said that if His Highness thinks there is an opportunity to directly encircle Dorgon's troops outside the city, I will try my best to cooperate."

This is actually the statement of the British public. Although Zhu Cihong is leading a partial division, he is the coach of this war against the Qing Dynasty.

Zhu Cihong was about to say something when suddenly a Ming general galloped over with a delicate expression.

"Your Highness, I just captured a general who built slaves. He said... he is Dorgon's emissary!"

"Envoy?" After hearing this word, Zhu Cihong was also a little dazed.

Dorgon actually sent an envoy?

To Zhu Cihong's surprise, the person sent was still a Han.

How do you know they are Han Chinese?Because there are actually not many Manchurians who can speak fluent Chinese (Ming Dynasty version) these days.

The envoy of the Qing Dynasty saluted Zhu Cihong respectfully, and then said: "His Royal Highness, Prince Rui sent me here for the sake of peace between the Ming and Qing Dynasties."

"Peace?" Zhu Cihong couldn't help being a little funny when he heard this sentence.

When the Manchu Qing had an obvious advantage on the battlefield, why haven't you seen any mention of peace?

Now that the situation is unfavorable, do you know the value of peace?

Zhu Cihong said very calmly: "Then, what conditions does Dorgon have?"

The envoy said: "Prince Rui will appoint his brother Prince Azig as the envoy to formally start peace talks with you tomorrow."

Zhu Cihong said: "No, I only talk to Dorgon."

The envoy wanted to say something more, but Zhu Cihong lost his patience: "Come here, take him down."

Several wolf-like guards held down the messenger in an instant.

The envoy's face changed drastically, and he shouted: "His Royal Highness, you can't do this, the two countries are at war without beheading!"

Zhu Cilang laughed loudly: "First of all, Jiannu is just a traitor who betrayed Daming, how can he deserve to be called the two countries with Daming? Secondly, you may not know that besides devils, there are other things I hate the most in my life. The second devil who is willing to be loyal to the devil and work as a minion for the tiger!"

"Come here, drag this second devil out to me, and behead him for public display!"

Li Dingguo, who couldn't hold back for a long time, was overjoyed, and went out with the wailing emissary.

Uncle Xiangcheng Li Guozhen watched this scene from the sidelines, was stunned for a while, and then said: "So His Highness the Crown Prince is not planning to talk to Jiannu?"

Zhu Cilang smiled and shook her head: "No, I really want to see what kind of medicine is sold in Jiannu's gourd."

Li Guozhen was dumbfounded for a moment, and said: "Then why..."

Zhu Cihong said seriously: "Because, I just want to kill him."

As we all know, loving someone does not require any very reasonable reasons.

So, does killing someone necessarily require a reasonable reason?
