Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Sony, Suksaha, Aobai, and Ebilong are the heroes and relatives of the Shangsanqi under Shunzhi's personal control, and they are also his most loyal servants. After Dorgon's death, when Shunzhi encountered major difficult matters, he usually asked these four servants to discuss them first.

Obai's elder brother Zhao Butai (Guarjia Zhuobutai) was dismissed by Shunzhi because he did not support the army in the battle of Mopanshan. Duoni, the king of Xin County, was also fined 5,000 taels of silver. Dorobel Duran A fine of 2,000 taels of silver was imposed, and the commanders Ji Xihage, Manggutu and others were all punished.

When Ao Bai came in, Shunzhi thought of Zhao Butai, and he told this minion that he would restore his elder brother to his post for a few days, and moved Ao Bai and quickly knelt down and kowtowed a few times. Sony and Suksaha, who came in later, smiled and said nothing, and the other frowned. Ebilong was the last to arrive because he was dealing with the entrance of the Mongolian army in the Lifan Academy, and Shunzhi didn't blame him for being late. He expressed his worries in front of the four loyal servants.

Suksaha is upright and likes to speak bluntly, and immediately said: "Master, the servants have long disagreed with the matter of Prince Wu Sangui Jin, this Qing Dynasty is the Qing Dynasty of the Manchus, and the handle of the knife must be in the hands of the Manchus. It matters! Wu Sangui now has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command, and most of them are soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, all of whom are Han soldiers. No matter what others think, the slaves don't care, anyway, the slaves are not at ease."

"It makes sense, such a huge Han Chinese force is far away from the capital, and most of them are the former Ming army, so we have to be on guard. , or else I might be unpredictable." Ebillon nodded.

The words of these two servants came to Shunzhi's heart. He asked, "What do you mean?"

Suksaha said: "The slaves thought that not only could they not give Yungui to Wu Sangui, but the imperial court had to cut down the vassal, so as to avoid disasters in the future."

"Cut the vassal?" Shunzhi was taken aback.

Ebilong was also surprised, he didn't believe Wu Sangui, but he didn't mean to cut down the vassal. If this is the unification of the Qing Dynasty, it is understandable to cut the vassal, but now not only Zhu Youlang's Yongli is small, the court is hiding in Burma, and there are still many Ming army remnants in the southwest. , Huguang is in a panic everywhere, and the Zheng family in Fujian is also eyeing it. The situation was very unfavorable for Da Qing.

Fujian Dasu reported that Zheng Jun has been collecting grain in Fujian and Zhejiang this month. Zheng Jun Gan Hui, Ma Xin and Zhang Huangyan just attacked Ruian City under Wenzhou Prefecture ten days ago. It is possible that Zheng Sen wanted to deploy a large-scale attack in response to the Guangdong Tang Dynasty regime in the south.

In addition, Tang Sanshui, the Guangdong Admiral who had been insisting on fighting against the Taiping Army in Shaozhou and Nanxiong, also sent an emergency, saying that the Taiping Army had already sent troops to Shaozhou, threatening the city. If Shaozhou loses, the Taiping army will be able to open the northward passage and go straight into Ganzhou, Jiangxi. Therefore, Tang Sanshui asked the court to mobilize troops and horses to assist Shaozhou, so as not to force the Taiping army to attack Ganzhou, causing the Jiangxi province to change hands.

When Wang Deren and Jin Shengheng returned to Ming Dynasty in Jiangxi anyway, they failed because Ganzhou still belonged to the Qing Dynasty. After Li Chengdong returned to Ming Dynasty, he also ordered an army to attack Ganzhou, which shows the importance of Ganzhou. Li Chengdong even drowned in Ganzhou. However, Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao led the army southwards, and they also rushed all the way from Ganzhou to Guangdong. In half a month, they destroyed the Shaowu regime, forcing Yongli to flee from Zhaoqing in embarrassment. Now that the Taiping army is going north to attack Shaozhou, it is clear that it also wants to conquer Shaozhou and then seize Ganzhou. Naturally, the Qing court must pay more attention. In order to encourage Tang Sanshui to stick to Shaozhou, Shunzhi awarded him the title of first-class light car Hafan, and promoted him to be the governor of Zuo. Prince Shaofu. These were the honors that Wu Liuqi sold his life for Qing for ten years back then, but now they are all given to Tang Sanshui, who has only been the Admiral of Guangdong for less than two years. Not only that, the money and food support of the Qing army in Shaozhou was also borne by Jiangxi Province. In order to protect Shaozhou from being lost, the Qing court issued a strict decree to Jiangxi, but those who dared to slack off in civil and military affairs would not be spared. And Jiangxi Governor Xia Yie, in order to ensure "defending the enemy outside the country", can be said to have used his milk strength. He did his best to supply any request from Shaozhou, and never complained of bitterness. It was only the people of Jiangxi who suffered.

Guangdong and Guangxi, Huguang, the coasts of Fujian and Zhejiang, the border of Yunnan, and the middle of Sichuan, the Ming army is in chaos everywhere, and the Qing Dynasty uses troops everywhere. Second, the key is that Duny's Manchu and Mongolian army is still in Yunnan. In case Wu Sangui turns against him, Duny's army will really be held back, not to mention the other hundreds of thousands of soldiers who surrendered to the generals. The swarms of swarms followed Wu Sangui to make trouble, Duny couldn't keep it, and the eight provinces south of the Yangtze River would be wiped out in an instant.

Sony is a more experienced person, and what Ebilong thought of, he also thought of it, for fear that the master would hear Suksaha's bluff, and hurriedly said: "Master, Wu Sangui made great contributions to expelling Li thieves, sweeping up Jianxun of the Ming Dynasty, and the southwest. It was only because of Zhan Lun Gong that he was promoted to the prince.

Suksaha snorted slightly and reminded Sony, "Aren't we full of people in this world?" The implication is that the only people in the world can be called the people of Manchuria, and the Qing Dynasty also relies on Manchuria. If they obeyed, they would be obedient slaves, but if they refused, the Eight Banners of Manchuria have slaughtered hundreds of millions of Han Chinese since they entered the customs, and they don't care about killing millions more.

Ebilong couldn't bear it any longer, and said angrily: "Daqing was conquered by the Manchus, but without the help of the Han troops, would Manchuria really be able to secure this country? Don't say anything else, just say Wu Sangui, if not He, how many people have to die in Manzhou Erlang to win the current territory? Just now, how many Manzhou Erlangs are left? If all the Manzhou Erlangs are wiped out, what can you use to intimidate the Han people!"

After hearing this, Suksaha's face was ashen, but he didn't refute anything.

Shunzhi shook his head and looked at Ao Bai: "Ao Bai, talk about it."

Ao Bai pondered for a while, and said: "Master, the slave thinks that Suksaha is right, and Sony is right."

"Why are you a servant playing tricks?" Shunzhi was a little angry. He was asking Obai's opinion, not listening to his sloppy eyes.

Ao Bai chuckled lightly and said: "Master, there is a saying among the Han people, how can you let others sleep soundly on the side of your own couch. This Qing Dynasty belongs to Manchu people, so you must be on guard against the Han people, otherwise Jiangshan might be in trouble. They will be asked to take them back. After all, Manchuria has few people and has always ruled many ethnic groups with a small number of ethnic groups. It is a national policy to attach importance to the fundamentals. Therefore, Suksaha said that the vassal will be cut down, and the slaves think it is reasonable. However, the world is not at peace yet. Wars broke out, and Guangdong and Guangxi gained and lost. This is a time to cut down the vassal, which is easy to tell the Han population, and it is more likely to provoke Wu Sangui. Therefore, the slaves of Sony also feel reasonable, and this vassal cannot be cut. Besides, the slaves always think that Wu Sangui is not necessarily complete. As I have said, I have a different heart. If I touch it rashly, I may reverse him to change."

Shunzhi has always looked at Ao Bai differently, because he is quick-witted, smart, and has an old-fashioned and calm style in handling things. These words are reasonable and in line with Shunzhi's mind, so he asked him again: "According to you What do you mean by slave, what should I do now?"

Ao Bai bowed and replied: "According to the opinion of the slave, now it is only appropriate to throw stones to ask for directions, not to startle snakes!"

"Why throw a stone to ask the way?"

"One is to ask the hearts of the ministers, to prevent the ministers from thinking that the court has the intention of ignoring Wu Sangui; the other is to ask Wu Sangui's heart to see if he really has any intentions!"

Suksaha couldn't help it, and said, "Aobai, can you speak bluntly, what circles are you going around in front of the master!"

Ao Bai smiled and said: "Ask the hearts of the ministers, but to ask the ministers, not the censors, those people will do bad things before the Ming Dynasty, the court keeps them just for a name, but you can't really count on these people. Only the ministers who really do the real things can ask about the important affairs of the world, such as the six departments, such as local governors, and the court can really listen to the opinions of these people. , must not let the ministers think that the court is really suspicious of Wu Sangui, so if Wu Sangui really rebels, it will not get much response, after all, the court did not blame him."

"Then how to ask Wu Sangui's heart?"

"Hong Chengchou invites the vassal for him, then he has to show his intentions to the court. The master asked him to lead the troops to fight Huguang."

"Playing Huguang?"

"The Prince of Pingjun is too young, and his affairs are unstable. Wu Sangui is a lot of old men and his subordinates have high combat power. The important thing is that his newly recruited 100,000 Ming army surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. Call Wu Sangui to fight Huguang, become a successor. Now, everything is alive, the court believes in him, and Yungui will give it to him. If it fails, the loss is also the Han soldiers~www.NovelMTL.com~ The court has no losses, so why not do it."

"This strategy is very good, just follow your method." Shunzhi nodded happily, secretly saying that Obai still has more ideas, but after thinking about it, he was a little worried: "What about Donny?"

"King Xin will stay in Yunnan, drive Wu Sangui to the north, Huguang will be opened up, and let King Xin come out quickly. If it doesn't work, let King Xin stay in control, lest there will be troubles in Yunnan and Guizhou. The master will go to war, as long as a victory is won, the Ming army will be in chaos. At that time, the King of Letters will be able to choose the opportunity to go out and attack Guangdong and Guangxi."

Ao Bai kept talking, Shunzhi couldn't stop nodding when he heard it, Sony didn't say anything, Ebilong felt that Ao Bai's method was good, Suksaha was not convinced, it could be seen that the master did not dare to say more.

The master and servant were discussing, and the cabinet sent a rush, but it was from Tong Guoqi, governor of Zhejiang. Tong Guoqi said that the Zheng army had tens of thousands of armored soldiers, split lanes and raided, densely covered tents, camped for more than 40 miles, and fireworks covered the sky. This large-scale landing was unusual, and the thief crossed the Feiyun River estuary from Ruian to the southwest into the sea, reinforcements were immobilized, and the two counties of Pingyang and Ruian were silent. He went back to land and water again, and watched Wenzhou. My soldiers were restrained from end to end, and it was extremely dangerous. In the end, Tong Guoqi pointed out that he believed that Zheng Jun might invade the Yangtze River and invade Jiangning, so he asked the court to take precautions early.
