Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 486
Dorgon is indeed a capable person, and it is obvious to all to solve each matter and be so busy.

However, after all, there were some things that gave him a headache and were difficult to solve.

Dorgon, who had been secretly observing Huang Taiji, finally decided to follow Huang Taiji's approach and summon those Hanchens.Sometimes, he has to admit that the brains of the Han people are still smarter than those of the Manchurians.

Therefore, on this day, Dorgon ordered to summon the Han officials Bao Chengxian, Ning Wanwo, Fan Wencheng, Luo Xiujin, Liang Zhengda, Qi Guoru, Yang Fangxing and others in Shengjing City.

Most of these people were scholars of the Ming Dynasty. They had defected to Jianlu in their early years and contributed to Jianlu. They also contributed a lot to Huang Taiji's ascension to the throne and proclaiming himself emperor.The most famous people among them are Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan.

Since Geng Zhongming's corpse and Geng Jimao were exchanged for Prince Li, the enthusiasm of these Han officials has been greatly reduced, and most of them are hiding in the mansion.In this regard, Dorgon knew it well, knowing that they were afraid of serving too much for the Qing Dynasty. After they became famous, if they were named by the Ming Dynasty, what would they have to exchange? They would be abandoned by the Qing Dynasty and exchanged back to the Ming Dynasty , then there is only a dead end.

Therefore, facing these Han officials standing with bowed head and hands down, although Dorgon was annoyed in his heart, he still pretended to be kind and said: "During this time, my king has been busy with political affairs, and I haven't seen you for a long time." I saw you last time. If there are too many words, this king will not talk about it. I wonder if you have any good strategies for the current situation of the Qing Dynasty?"

After he finished speaking, everyone still lowered their heads and kept silent, since they didn't call names anyway!

Seeing this reaction, Dorgon couldn't help but frown, and his voice became colder and he said: "Why, you don't have any ideas? Or are you afraid that the Qing Dynasty will exchange you back to the Ming Dynasty?"

The regent became angry, and Fan Wencheng and others immediately knelt down, but they still didn't reply and continued to pretend to be dead.

"Hehe!" Dorgon's temper is better than other Jianlu princes, but there is a limit. When he saw this situation, he sneered and said: "If Daqingzhen wants to exchange you back, it will be based on your previous Serving the Qing Dynasty is enough!"

Hearing this, some people below were a little uneasy, and Dorgon saw a thing or two through some of their details, so he softened his tone and continued, "Don't worry, my king put the words here today, as long as If you serve the Qing Dynasty faithfully, the Qing Dynasty will never abandon you. The previous incident was just a special case!"

Speaking of this, he emphasized his tone, "Your glory and wealth are all on Daqing's side. You can only be better if Daqing is better. Do you understand?"

"Slave understands!" Fan Wencheng and others responded in unison.But after answering, they fell silent again.

They actually knew very well in their hearts that although Dorgon made a guarantee and said that the previous incident was just a special case, if next time, another prince of the Qing Dynasty was captured by the Ming Dynasty, the prince would not even be used. Shan Ezhen and the like, maybe Dorgon and others took them to Ming Guo for replacement.

Dorgon couldn't help but get really angry when he saw how dead pigs they were, and he didn't listen to good words, that is, toasting and not eating fine wine. Really, he really needs to let them know how powerful they are, and only after suffering a little bit can they serve the Qing Dynasty?
He was thinking this, and just when he was about to get angry, there were steady footsteps outside the palace, and then a chamberlain appeared at the door of the palace and played loudly: "The King of Obedience has sent someone to deliver the memorial."

Hearing this, Fan Wencheng and others couldn't help but glance at the entrance of the hall.

In terms of the highest official position and great reputation among Han officials, it should be Kong Youde!Geng Zhongming, who was close to him, betrayed Daqing, he must have a difficult life now, right?At this time, he should be the person who is most worried about being exchanged by Qing Dynasty!
Thinking about it this way, some people couldn't help but wonder, maybe this memorial was made by Kong Youde, who wanted to resign this king with a different surname?Otherwise, it is really the No.1 Han official serving the Qing Dynasty!
Thinking of this, they couldn't help but look forward to it. Kong Youde wrote the memorial just after the Chinese New Year. What exactly is he going to do?
On Dorgon's side, it was also a little strange, so he asked the servant to present it, and after reading it, he would argue with the Han officials below.

In his impression, he was also dissatisfied with this Kong Youde.

The relationship with Geng Zhongming is so good, if Geng Zhongming has problems, will Kong Youde also have problems?

Based on this consideration, Dorgon sent Manchurians to Tieling to monitor Kong Youde.

However, when Dorgon read the memorial, he was overjoyed.He didn't expect that Kong Youde came to show his loyalty and support to him, and he also took the initiative to mention the current plight of the Qing Dynasty.It is said that the food problem in the Qing Dynasty is serious, and he can no longer eat white noodles and steamed buns in the royal palace, so he will increase his efforts to grow more food, and the problem will naturally be solved.

For this reason, Kong Youde took the initiative to mobilize Han slaves who were good at farming and put them under his command to open up wasteland and farm fields in the Liaohe Plain, that is, the Tieling line. This would effectively solve the food problem of the Qing Dynasty.Although Kong Youde was a miner before, he was also proficient in farming. Therefore, he just promised that as long as he was given enough Han slaves, he dared to issue a military order and return Dorgon with enough food.

This is really a pillow for drowsiness!
The most worrying thing for Dorgon is the food problem in the Qing Dynasty.Now he wanted to ask these Han officials for advice, but these Han officials did not take responsibility and dared not offer advice. Unexpectedly, Kong Youde stepped forward at this time, which made Dorgon really happy!
Although the solution in Kong Youde's memorial, Dorgon had actually considered it.Everyone agrees that when it comes to farming, it is none other than the Han people.Dorgon is also thinking about using Han people to grow food to solve the current crisis in the Qing Dynasty.

At this moment, Kong Youde took the initiative to stand up and took care of this matter, making Dorgon shout repeatedly after reading the memorial: "Okay!"

After shouting, he raised his head, looked at the group of Han officials in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I still respect Wang Zhongxin. Look, he took the initiative to offer advice and suggestions to solve the food problem for the Qing Dynasty. You also love the Qing Dynasty." Lu, why can't you solve the problems for the Qing Dynasty? The first emperor really saw it right, so he was named king of a different surname, but you are not!"

In fact, he knew that Huang Taiji named Kong Youde the king of a different surname because Kong Youde brought troops, artillery and warships to the Qing Dynasty, which were urgently needed by the Qing Dynasty.But at this time, he said this on purpose, just to stimulate these Han officials.

Sure enough, after he finished speaking, Fan Wencheng came out and said: "I am ashamed of my servant, I have little talent and learning, just now I thought of a way to solve some food and grass problems for the Qing Dynasty!"

Upon hearing this, Dorgon was overjoyed, and asked lightly, "What method?"

In his mind, no matter how much these people opened their mouths, they would still have a worse impression than Kong Youde.

"At the time, King Gongshun, King Huaishun and King Zhishun were all from the Dongjiang Army. They must also be proficient in fishing. Although they cannot go fishing on the sea, there is no problem in fishing in the rivers in the hinterland of Liaodong. It's better. Mobilize these soldiers from all over the country and let them only be responsible for fishing, so that you can eat more!"

Jianlu was originally a fishing and hunting nation, and they mainly lived on hunting, and they also did fishing.However, over the years, people have become accustomed to grabbing things, so who would even think about fishing.

Of course, life is difficult now. The old people in Jianlu still have fishing skills and want to fish, but the young people don't know how to do it.And most of them wield their guns and clubs, and who cares about such things as fishing.

The method proposed by Fan Wencheng is indeed feasible, which made Dorgon nod in agreement after listening to it, and said: "This method is good. It can save some time after fishing, and salted fish can also be used. good!"

As soon as I heard that Fan Wencheng was praised by Dorgon, I was also moved by Ning Wan, so I also went out and said: "Your Highness, I heard that in the past, many Haixi Jurchen did business with Eizo, or you can Use silk cloth or something, go and exchange some food with Ezo!"

At the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, after the establishment of Nuergandusi, the policy of rewarding more than tribute was adopted, which made the tribute team of Nuergandusi more frequent and expanding.

The Jurchen tribute mission came to the capital and not only received generous rewards of gold, silver, silk, grain and other supplies, but also got the opportunity to trade in the capital.As a result, large quantities of silk, silk, ramie silk clothing, gold-woven clothing and other items continued to enter the Heilongjiang River Basin. The Jurchens there then traded with the Yi people in Hokkaido. The silk of the Ming Dynasty had another name. : Ezo Nishiki.This kind of trade, in the original history, would continue until the middle of the Qing Dynasty.

When Dorgon heard this, he couldn't help but nodded again.If Lingluo satin could be exchanged for food, he would exchange it.

In the past few times when entering the customs, I robbed a lot of silk and satin from the Ming Dynasty. There is still some in the warehouse of the imperial palace.

Hearing this, Fan Wencheng at the side was moved in his heart, and played to Dorgon again: "Your Highness, I remembered that there is no Ming navy on the northern coast. In this way, it can also make the original Dongjiang Army Those soldiers, Hannu, etc. all go fishing in the sea over there. It is said that there are fish in the sea that are bigger than houses, and if you can catch one, it will be enough for many people to eat!"

After hearing this, Dorgon nodded again, he was finally a little satisfied.

The brains of these Han officials are much more flexible than other people in the Qing Dynasty. As long as they are willing to work for the Qing Dynasty, they can always find a way.No wonder Huang Taiji valued them in the past.

At this time, he suddenly wanted to understand something.That's why Huang Taiji used them and regarded them as his confidants, but he didn't give them high officials.It should be because of these literati that they will contribute, right?It was the example of Kong Youde that stimulated them all at once.

Just as he was thinking about it, another Han official, Bao Chengxian, who had been thinking about things a little anxiously, finally thought of something, and hurriedly stood up and reported to Dorgon: "Your Highness, I thought that those Yiyi people were far behind. , vulnerable, it is better for the Qing Dynasty to send troops directly. In that way, we can snatch all their food and supplies back without giving away silk and satin, and we can also order them to continue to provide food and grass supplies to the Qing Dynasty, and it is so far away This place cannot be destroyed by the Ming Dynasty, so it can be a stable source of food and grass for the Qing Dynasty!"

This Bao Chengxian was born as a general in Shanxi and had a hereditary military position.During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, Bao Chengxian was an official to a general.

In the first year of Taichang, Bao Chengxian guarded Shenyang with He Shixian and Li Bingcheng.Soon, he was appointed as the commander of Kaiyuan East Road and the deputy general of "Xinyongying" and continued to guard Shenyang City.Xiong Tingbi, the governor of Liaodong, wrote a letter to reward the generals, and Bao Chengxian was given the title of governor.

To him, Daming is no less nice to him.However, it turned out that after Nurhachi led the troops to fight over, this guy got all kinds of pitfalls, ran before the battle, and selling allies was his best skill. After he had no teammates to trap, he surrendered to Jianlu.Nurhachi, a ruthless man, killed an unknown number of Han people, all because of his contribution to Jianlu and still gave him the title of lieutenant general.

Later, the traitor used his previous connections to persuade Jianlu to surrender Zhu Jiantai, the magistrate of Qian'an County, guerrilla Bu Wenhuan and others.When attacking Dalinghe, Zhai Jiabao was recruited and surrendered.Even after Kong Youde surrendered to Jianlu, he strongly advocated that Jianlu should build a navy to deal with Ming Dynasty.

Anyway, after this traitor surrendered to the Jianlu, he actively worked for the Jianlu.In those early years, his reputation as a traitor was as famous as that of Fan Wencheng, Ning Wanwo and others.It was not until later that he was overshadowed by Fan Wencheng, Ning Wanwo and others.

At this time, because of his background as a general, he naturally thought of the method of "robbing".

When Dorgon heard this, he was really moved.For him, grabbing things is something he is used to.If you can rob it, why go to all the trouble of doing business!

He was thinking about it, but when I saw Bao Chengxian's complacent look, I couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. I felt that he thought of it based on his own idea. Gunzou said: "Your Highness, the land of Ezo is very close to the country of Japan. If I send troops in the Qing Dynasty, it may cause misunderstandings from the country of Japan. The servant thinks that the current situation of the Qing Dynasty is not suitable for making more enemies for the time being. For good."

In fact, at this time, the Wa Kingdom had already expanded in Hokkaido and occupied some of the southernmost areas of Hokkaido, but Jianlu's side naturally didn't know it yet.

When Fan Wencheng heard it, his heart suddenly moved again, and he played to Dorgon: "Your Highness, the Wa Kingdom fought two major wars with the Ming Kingdom before, and the two sides are sworn enemies. The so-called enemy of the enemy is an ally. The slaves thought that it would be better to send envoys to form an alliance with the Japanese country, so that not only would they get a powerful ally, but they could even get food and supplies from the ally, so the strength of the Qing Dynasty would definitely increase!"
