Dorgon reborn

At Jiashen time on the first day of the first lunar month, Nurhachi officially proclaimed King Khan, and the enthronement ceremony was grandly held in the inner city. Nurhachi's second son Daishan, nephew Amin, fifth son Mang Gurtai, and eighth son Huang Taiji were the leaders of Baylor and ministers. , leading all civil and military officials to gather in front of the "Zunhaotai", standing on both sides according to the order of the Eight Banners.

When Nurhachi took his seat facing the ministers, the eight ministers walked out from the crowd, holding the persuasion table in their hands, and knelt in front, while Zhubeile and the ministers led the crowd to kneel behind.The guard Adun stood on the right side of the Khan, and Bakshi Erdeni stood on the left side of the Khan, and greeted the eight ministers from both sides to kneel and submit a statement.

Afterwards, Erdeni read out the inscription on the left front of the Khan, and his title was "Feng Tian Fu Yu Lie Ming Khan".After reading the table, Nurhachi stood up, left the throne, personally held incense, prayed to heaven, and led the officials to kneel three times and kowtow nine times. "Great Gold" was formally established, and Nurhachi was changed to "Mandate of Heaven"!

In the third year of Mandate of Heaven (the 46th year of Ming Wanli, 1618), Nurhachi announced the "Seven Great Hatreds" to challenge the Ming Dynasty. So far, the "Seven Great Hatreds" declarations of war have spread all over the world, and Nurhachi has officially declared war on the Ming court!In an instant, the sun was covered by dust, the sky was full of beacon smoke, and countless Eight Banners disciples were full of murderous intent.

At this time, the Emperor Wanli of the Ming Dynasty has been inactive for many years, and the only thing that can keep him dreaming is the three thousand Fendai, and Jiangshan Sheji has been left behind... Poor those innocent soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, soaked in blood for hundreds of miles Changchuan...

Nurhachi ordered the cattle of the Eight Banners to record Ezhen, ordering them to urge the people to herd their war horses, rectify their weapons and armor, and prepare for their departure.In order to deceive the frontier generals of the Ming Dynasty and not let the news leak out, Nurhachi asked the soldiers to carry out all preparations in secret. Even felling trees to make ladders was said to be for the construction of buildings and large-scale construction.

At the Eight Banners meeting, Nurhachi reiterated the content of military discipline. After a series of rectification and encouragement, the soldiers of the Eight Banners seemed to tighten their bowstrings. As soon as he gave an order, thousands of horses galloped away!

One day in early April, Tan Ma Lai reported: "Li Yongfang, a guerrilla official at Fushun Pass in the Ming Dynasty, recently decided to open the horse market in Fushun on April [-]."

After hearing the news, Nurhachi said to Gottlier beside him, "A god-sent opportunity!"

The old man said humorously: "The date of King Khan's attack on the Ming Dynasty is set by this Li Yongfang for you!" Nurhachi couldn't stop laughing after hearing this, and said to the old man: "I want to take my fourteenth son Dorgon with me when I attack the Ming Dynasty this time. What do you think?"

Gotlier nodded, stood up slowly and said: "King Khan, the waves behind the river push the waves ahead, and a new generation replaces the old. Although the fourteenth elder brother is still young, he has shown extraordinary courage and talent. If If you take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to practice, you will surely improve by leaps and bounds."

"With the words of the old man, I will let go of my heart!" Nurhachi let out a long breath, and the big stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground. Goutlier can be called a wise man among the Jurchens, and even he recognizes it Dorgon must be right.

Gotlier smiled slightly, "King Khan, if you are worried, why don't you call all the elder brothers here to take advantage of this assignment to pass the exam?!"

"The old man said it is very true!" After finishing speaking, Nurhachi ordered a meeting of the generals of the Eight Banners to study the matter of attacking the Ming Dynasty.

At the beginning of the meeting, Huang Taiji immediately said: "Fushun is the gateway to the border gate of the Ming Dynasty, and it is also the main road for our Dajin to enter and exit. , the defense of the city must be relaxed, this is a great opportunity, don't miss it!"

General An Fei Yanggu immediately suggested: "Li Yongfang opened the horse market, we can pretend to be horse dealers, go to Fushun to sell horses, and then we will cooperate with each other."

Nurhachi listened carefully to everyone's opinions, turned his eyes to Dorgon standing aside, and asked in a low voice: "Dorgon, what do you think?"

Everyone in the hall focused their eyes on Dorgon, with expectations, surprises, disgust, and contempt...

With a faint smile on the corners of Dorgon's lips, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Nurhachi sitting on the Khan's seat, "Father Khan, my son thinks that we should spend a lot of money to buy the gatekeepers, especially the little bosses who guard the city, so that they can let them go when they attack the city." Respond internally!"

Mangurtai immediately said sarcastically: "What's the use of buying soldiers and small bosses? Can't you buy their generals?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone burst into laughter. Huang Taiji hid the smile on his face, touched Mang Gurtai lightly with his hand and said in a low voice: "Fifth brother, soldiers and little bosses are easier to bribe, and they can guard the city. Of course it’s good to buy it and use it for us.”

Nurhachi glanced at Gurtai with dissatisfaction and recklessness, "Leading troops to fight, not only must fight bravely, but also learn to use your brain to think more strategies, to outsmart, not to fight recklessly!"

Although Mang Gurtai kept saying yes, but his fierce and gloomy eyes peeked at Dorgon not far away, and secretly vowed in his heart: sooner or later he will get rid of this evil seed, otherwise it will become a serious problem for them!

The meeting dispersed, and Dorgon followed Nurhachi to the head of Hetuala City, looking into the distance.Two full years have passed in the blink of an eye. He doesn't want to see the battle of Sarhu imminent. History is still moving forward according to the original track. The only change is his relationship with Huang Taiji.

At the meeting just now, Mangurtai was hostile to him, he could see clearly, but he had no other choice, if he kept silent, he would lose even Nurhachi's umbrella, let alone save Abahai, so he had to do his best Do your best to win the trust and favor of Father Khan, and consolidate your position, so that you can protect the people he wants to protect.

"Dorgon!" Nurhachi turned his gaze back to his son.

"Father Khan?"

"You went out with Father Khan, it's time to experience and practice." Nurhachi reached out and patted Dorgon on the shoulder, looking at the childish and still beloved son in front of him, although he still couldn't bear it, he couldn't wait any longer.He is getting older day by day, and his spirit is not as good as before. He must start to support Dorgon while he can still wear armor to fight.

Dorgon was shocked by Nurhachi's words, he didn't expect this day to come so soon, "Father Khan...I..." His voice choked up because he couldn't tell, and he clenched his fists with his hands hanging by his side.

"Father Khan knows that you are still young, but Father Khan is no longer young. Father Khan has a lot to teach you, which cannot be learned on paper. So, Dorgon went back to prepare, put on sweat Father prepares battle armor for you, rides on a horse and gallops on the battlefield with Father Khan, all of Nurhachi's sons are not cowards!" Nurhachi's eyes showed firmness.

"Yes, Father Khan!" Dorgon knelt down on one knee.

night of april [-]

Dorgon sat on the roof looking at the vast starry sky, finally heaved a long sigh, lowered his eyes to look at his hands, his slender white fingers were covered with thick calluses, these hands could never be clean again, he would be wiped with blood Red, he will become cold and ruthless.

Standing at the gate of the courtyard, Huang Taiji quietly looked at the lonely figure on the roof. He watched Dorgon grow up and knew his every move like the palm of his hand.Although Dorgon was courageous, but his heart was too soft, it was doomed that killing was the hardest thing for him to overcome, so he stepped back to the room, jumped up and sat down beside him.

"Thinking about tomorrow's expedition?" Huang Taiji reached out and pulled Dorgon into his arms, letting him lean on his arms.

Dorgon glanced at Huang Taiji and smiled bitterly, "Brother, I don't want to kill, but I have to?" He stretched out his arms to wrap around Huang Taiji's arm, and the man beside him was always by his side when he was most vulnerable, always there He protected him when he needed it the most, although he still couldn't accept his strange love.

"I don't think Father Khan will let you go into battle to kill the enemy, but just want you to witness the war with your own eyes and hone it." Huang Taiji gently stroked Dorgon's slightly chilled cheeks, and touched his soft lips with his fingertips Suddenly stopped moving.

"Forget it, I don't want to go back to sleep." Dorgon pretended to be calm and pulled away his hands covering his lips. He wanted to stand up but was suddenly pulled by his hands, "Mynah, is there anything else?" Shaking hands, Dorgon asked suspiciously.

Huang Taiji frowned slightly, and brought him back into his arms with his wrist, "Why are you in a hurry? Are you afraid to be alone with me?" Ever since he kissed Dorgon that time, he has deliberately kept his relationship with him. A certain distance, neither far nor near nor cold or hot.

"No...not...I..." Dorgon bit his lips lightly, his eyes flustered, and he lay on his back in Huang Taiji's arms. This ambiguous posture made him feel embarrassed. He was no longer the little thing two years ago up.

"Stop quibbling." Huang Taiji broke away from Dorgon and clenched his teeth. For two years, he had been longing to kiss those soft lips again, a slight smile emanated from the corners of his lips, and he slowly lowered his head to cover it.

Dorgon's eyes widened, his hands firmly grasped Huang Taiji's collar and pulled him to the sides, trying to pull him away, but a terrible thing happened. With a creaking sound, Huang Taiji's clothes were ripped into two pieces. Half, a strong chest appeared in front of Dorgon's eyes.

Dorgon's face instantly turned into a piece of red paper, and the hand that was pulling Huang Taiji's clothes was retracted like an electric shock. Huang Taiji let go of Dorgon's lips, looked at his torn clothes, and raised his eyebrows at Dorgon. Dagon said meaningfully: "You are so anxious? Could it be that you can bear this passion now?!"

Dorgon shook his head violently, "Brother, mynah is all a misunderstanding, it's not what you think... I'm just... anyway..." Panicked, he didn't know what he said, and the man in front of him stared at him meaningfully. He looked, and saw that the hairs all over his body were standing on end.

"What else do you want to say?" Huang Taiji stretched out his arms around Dorgon's waist, and slowly slid his hands along his waistline, "You really have grown up a lot. Starling got married when he was seven years old, and you are already eight years old." He's almost an adult now."

"Don't act foolishly, people will be killed!" Dorgon's face has changed in fear, he is very afraid of Huang Taiji, the most important thing is that he has no room to fight back against Huang Taiji.The eating habits of the Jurchens doomed their bodies to mature prematurely. The eight-year-old Dorgon was almost the same as a twelve or thirteen-year-old child, but this did not mean that he would like to be held in the arms of a man.

"Who told you that you would be killed?" Huang Taiji held back a smile and looked at Dorgon with a flustered face. Don't look at him usually sharp-tongued, but when it comes to this kind of thing, he is an idiot like a blank sheet of paper, but it's no wonder he I don’t understand, Abahai wouldn’t tell him these things, “Mynah told you that this will never kill anyone, and it’s time for you to understand love at this age, how about letting mynah learn it personally?!”

The corners of Dorgon's lips twitched a few times, and forced a smile, "Mynah, no...no need, we'll talk about it later..." Struggling to get up, but his body was firmly grasped and he couldn't move at all. , you are obviously bullying me, but I can't beat you, what kind of man is this!"

"Do you know that you are annoying?" Huang Taiji rubbed his forehead with his hand, suddenly released him, stood up and jumped off the roof.

Dorgon watched the figure disappear at the door in amazement, and murmured: "This man's temperament has changed? Or has his conscience discovered it?" He stood up and patted the dust on his body. This habit of throwing him like a sandbag has never changed. The arm must have turned blue again.

Huang Taiji suppressed the hot body and returned to the bedroom, saw Zhe Zhe sitting at the table embroidering something, saw him enter the door, hurriedly stood up and greeted him, but was suddenly hugged into his arms, "Master Belle?!" Huang Taiji The expression terrified her, as if he was enduring some strong emotion.

After blowing out the candles on the table, Huang Taiji picked up Zhe Zhe and put him on the bed, releasing pressure on her body indulgently, but the person in his mind was not this charming woman.

The corners of Zhezhe's eyes were moist, she knew that he just regarded her as an object of venting, and the person he was thinking of was not her.Same bed, different dreams, she thought that with her warmth and love, she could slowly melt this man's heart, but after so many years, she has not entered his heart after all.

After venting but still not feeling comfortable in his heart, he stood up slowly, picked up the clothes on the ground and put them on, Huang Taiji glanced at the limp Zhezhe on the bed, and said in a low voice: "Go to sleep first, I still have some things to do, so I won't accompany you gone."

"Lord Baylor..." Zhezhe wanted to say something, but she swallowed the words, she knew that even if she kept him, the result would be the same.Burying her head into the pillow, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of her lips, "Maybe one day she can touch him, maybe..."

Huang Taiji returned to the study and sat on the chair, rubbing his sore forehead with his hands, when will this kind of days end, just like the delicious food in front of you, you can only look at it but not eat it, and sometimes you can't even touch it.Sighing deeply, he pounded his fist on the table hard, feeling more and more irritable, but he couldn't find a way to vent it.

At this time, Dorgon was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly. He had no idea that there was a person who was in a state of extreme insomnia, and was still planning how to eat him alive.

In the early morning, Dorgon was woken up early, and he was still in his sleep. He was wrapped in soft armor by the maid.He slept very late last night, he just felt that he was dragged out of the bed just as he fell asleep, raised his hand and rubbed his sore eyes, glanced at himself in the white armor in the glasses, suddenly widened his eyes and looked carefully, " Is this me?" The person in the mirror has an awe-inspiring look, his black hair hangs tightly behind his head with a silver dragon tendon rope, his soft helmet protects his cheeks and fits on both sides of his temples, his eyebrows are drawn into his temples, and his black eyes are black. Coupled with handsome looks, needless to say majestic, even more handsome.

"Master Fourteen, this is not who you are. Our Fourteenth Master is so handsome no matter what he wears." The maid serving Dorgon beside him said with a smile, and she couldn't help but sneak a few more glances at him, her cheeks flushed slightly.

Dorgon sighed silently, if it weren't for this outstanding appearance, he wouldn't have offended the wolf Huang Taiji, so what's the use of thinking about it now?At this point, let's take one step at a time. He stretched out his hand to take the attendant with both hands holding the knife and slanted it behind his back. This was ordered by Father Khan to make it for him. Without the scabbard, the knife is almost the same height as him now.

Riding on the horse and coming to the parade stand, everyone's eyes fell on him, and the white tassel on his helmet was blown by a gust of wind.The gorgeous morning light outlined his figure, forming a graceful arc in the wind, and he tightened his reins and stood beside Huang Taiji.

"You really look good, like a little fighter!" The corners of Huang Taiji's lips curled into a faint smile, and he never took his eyes off Dorgon from the moment he appeared.He always exudes a kind of breath, which will deeply touch the softest part of your heart, so that you have to be attracted by him and pay attention to him.

"Hmph." Dorgon raised his head high, completely ignoring Huang Taiji's praise to him.

With a smile in the corner of his mouth, Huang Taiji grabbed Dorgon's head and pulled it towards him, and said in a low voice: "When you're on the battlefield, just don't be scared and sneak into myna's arms."

"You..." Dorgon broke away from Huang Taiji's hand with a dark face, and sat on the horse angrily, "Who would be afraid? Starling, you underestimate me too much!"

"Haha, okay, then let mynah see if your knife is sharp enough!" Huang Taiji laughed lowly.

Abahai led Duoduo to stand on the top of the city wall, tightly clutching the silk handkerchief in her hand, her eyes moved back and forth between her husband and son, her heart was already in her throat, but she could only pray for them at home, The battlefield is a place for men, and it is undoubtedly out of reach for a woman like her, not to mention that even if she is asked to go, it will not be of any help.

"Emiang, Duoduo wants to go with my brother, Duduo should not be at home." Duoduo shook Abahai's hand vigorously, staring straight at the white figure sitting on horseback under the city with his big watery eyes.

Abahai leaned down and picked up her son on the ground, "Duo Duo, you are still too young, and when you get older, your father Khan will take you with you." Dorgon's expedition with King Khan had already worried her, and she Dorgon was only eight years old, and the battlefield was such a dangerous place. Although King Khan said he wanted to experience him, it was too early.

"No, Dodo has to follow my brother." Dodo cried as he lay on Abahai's shoulder crying, "Dodo not separate from brother."

The departure order sounded, and the mighty team drove out of Hetuala City. Dorgon raised his eyes and glanced at Abahai and Duoduo in the city. A little smile appeared on the corners of his lips, and he raised his hands and clenched them into fists. Erniang, Duoduo, I will come back safely.
