Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 779 Moving the Capital
Bumbutai, the Empress Dowager of the Qing Dynasty, finally breathed a sigh of relief after the regent Dorgon went to the front line, and immediately began to make small moves.

The last time at the Chongzheng Hall, she was very happy after seeing the status of the little emperor among the subjects of the Qing Dynasty. Although Oboi was transferred to the front line, she still quietly promoted some people who supported the little emperor.

Bumbutai is fussy, the number does not need to be large, the promoted position does not need to be high, as long as more and more people are loyal to the emperor, when her son grows up and needs to be in charge, he will be a force that Dorgon cannot ignore.

Originally, she planned to continue to make small moves while Dorgon was not in Haizhou.Unexpectedly, bad news came one after another.

First, the Japanese envoys from North Korea ran to Liaodong to ask for help, and the first stop was Haizhou, which shocked Bumbutai.

But this is okay, she doesn't care much about the affairs of the Wa country.

However, it was followed by the defeat of the grassland.She immediately worried about her mother's family.

The royal family of Jianlu is different from that of the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty has stipulated since Emperor Taizu Hongwu that the queen must be selected from a commoner family, or a small family, and cannot be from a wealthy family, so as to avoid the influence of foreign relatives who are too powerful to influence the government.

But because Jianlu was weak, he needed to be united. Huang Taiji alone married the Horqin people and married one after another; even after defeating Lin Dan Khan, he married Lin Dan Khan's wife to appease the Mongols. .

Therefore, for a woman who is building the imperial palace, it definitely depends on the strength of her natal family.

If the natal family has no strength, it is easy to be squeezed out or even killed by other women, and a series of palace fights were born from this.

The defeat in the grassland, for Bumbutai, the first thing she thought of was that the Horqin clan was also annihilated. Will her son's throne be affected?
Just when she was anxious and at a loss, Jinzhou fled to Haizhou. Those who had horses and were not on the front line were the fastest to escape.

When Bumbutai heard that Jinzhou was defeated, he immediately fled to Liaoyang with the little emperor Fulin without saying a word.After only staying for a day, he felt that Liaoyang was still not safe, so he ran away immediately and fled back to his old nest, which was Shengjing, with the little emperor Fulin.

On Shengjing's side, Daishan is sitting in charge.

And Daishan's attitude is also to support the little emperor Fulin.

For this reason, Bumbutai approached Daishan immediately, and hurriedly asked how to deal with the current situation?

When encountering a real military event, she is completely lost!
But if you really want to say panic, Daishan is actually more panic than her.

Influenced by the defeat in the Battle of the Grassland, Bumbutai only thought of the destruction of the Horqin tribe, and that her natal family had no support; but Daishan thought that after the Ming army swept across the eastern Mongolian grassland, it would inevitably attack the Qing Dynasty. At that time, then I don't know where to defend against the long line of intersection with the grassland?
In other words, the invasion of the Qing Dynasty by the Ming cavalry is a foregone conclusion!

Also, the battle of Jinzhou will be defeated. This is the battle of the Qing Dynasty's national destiny. This defeat, no matter what the loss, will be a very serious blow to the Qing Dynasty, and the impact on the morale of the army will be very serious!
The Ming army in the Liaoxi Corridor will soon come to Haizhou, and then it will definitely attack Anshan Yibao, Liaoyang, and Shengjing.

At this time, no matter what you do, one thing is doomed. The Qing Dynasty is at the point of life and death, and the capital Shengjing will definitely not be able to keep.

At this time, Dai Shan remembered Hong Chengchou's proposal at the beginning: the Qing Dynasty retreated to the north, lengthened the length of the Ming army's logistics supply line, made it more difficult for the Ming army's logistics supply, and then looked for fighter opportunities.

However, after the Battle of Jinzhou, I don't know how many troops the Qing Dynasty still has available!

Therefore, the most critical thing Daishan has to face is to organize the existing troops before the Ming army reaches the hinterland of Liaodong, and organize the army and civilians to withdraw northward in an orderly manner.

If you are in a panic, it is very easy to cause collapse. If that is the case, the Qing Dynasty will no longer exist.

Daishan, who was getting old, did not expect to encounter such a thing before he died. His hair turned gray overnight.

But at this time, the dull Bumbutai finally came to his senses. Daqing's successive defeats would not only affect her natal family, but threatened Daqing's life and death. She became even more panicked and wanted to continue immediately. Run away and leave Shengjing, which feels unsafe.

When Daishan heard the report, he immediately rushed to stop Bumbutai, who was about to run away with the little emperor Fulin, and said to her: "Don't panic, you are the empress dowager of the Qing Dynasty, the birth mother of the emperor, and you are the queen mother of the Qing Dynasty. For the sake of the country, we must stabilize the morale of the army and the people of the Qing Dynasty!"

"Being the emperor of the Qing Dynasty is not so easy. Since you are bound to win the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, now is the time for the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty to take responsibility. If you dare to escape, I will immediately support the regent as the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty!"

Daishan obviously knew what Bumbutai cared about. After saying this, Bumbutai really hesitated. Seeing this situation, Daishan softened his tone and began to comfort Bumbutai again: "Actually, the situation is still very serious. Not too bad!"

After hearing this, Bumbutai immediately looked at Daishan with anticipation, hoping to hear him say that there is no reason for the situation to be very bad!She felt that, as a woman, she was definitely not as clear as a battle-tested prince like Daishan.

"Jinzhou is a big defeat. The remnants of the defeated generals can be gathered together, and there can be 30 to [-]." Dai Shan said to her, "Now the regent has fled to Liaoyang and is in charge of military affairs in Liaoyang. Before you came back, he was in Anshan Yibao The layout is very good, under the heavy guard, I believe that after the regent recovers, he will increase his support for the natural danger of Anshan Post Fort, and it will definitely not be a problem to block the Ming army for ten and a half months!"

When Bumbutai heard Daishan's praise for her, she didn't know why, but she also felt confident in her heart, and began to calm down.

On Daishan's side, he continued to analyze for her: "With the regent guarding Liaoyang, it would be impossible for the Ming army to reach Shengjing, at least in the short term. It will be winter and we have to retreat!"

When Bumbutai heard this, he became even more happy. Saying it this way, it seems that the Qing Dynasty is in danger, but at least this year there is no danger.

But who knows, Daishan changed the subject, and then said to her: "But after the cavalry army of the Ming Dynasty swept the grassland, they must invade the Qing Dynasty, and their goal will definitely be Shengjing. For this reason, in At this time, it is necessary for the Qing Dynasty to move the capital. However, there must be no panic or chaos, and the capital must be moved in an orderly manner!"

However, when Bumbutai heard that the grassland cavalry of the Ming Dynasty would attack Shengjing, even if she was a woman, she knew the emptiness of Shengjing, so she panicked again, and quickly asked: "Then move the capital quickly?" , but where should the capital of the Qing Dynasty be located?”

"Ning Guta!" Daishan had obviously thought about it, and immediately gave an answer.

"Ah? Where?" Bumbutai couldn't believe his ears when he heard it, and quickly confirmed, "Ninggu Pagoda? Isn't that too remote?"

You must know that in the original history, Ninggu Pagoda was built for the exile of criminals, and it belonged to one of the most desolate ruling areas of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

This move of the capital moved him to Ninggu Pagoda, doesn't it mean that he exiled himself as a whole?

Dai Shan nodded seriously and replied: "Yes, Ningguta! It is suitable to be the capital of Daqing. Grain fields, life is not worrying."

"But...but..." Thinking of Ninggu Pagoda, no matter how it is, it is still a desolate place, otherwise, he would not throw Haoge there who may cause trouble, Bumbutai still has the feeling in his heart. A little intimidated.

However, she also knew that since it was proposed by Daishan, that place was probably the right one. She wanted to find a reason to refuse, or change to a new place, but she had nothing to say, so she stammered.

Daishan saw her and knew what she was thinking.At the same time, he also knew that many people in the Qing Dynasty, like Bumbutai, were afraid of Ninggu Tower and didn't want to go there.

However, apart from Ninggu Pagoda, he really couldn't think of a place that was more suitable for moving the capital than Ninggu Pagoda.

The entire Qing Dynasty, that is, Shengjing and Liaoyang, the center of Liaodong, is relatively prosperous, while other places are desolate.

I am used to living a good life, but there are indeed too many people who are not happy to move to a difficult place.

However, now that the Ming army is in full swing, Daishan is still worried that the new capital is not remote enough and the roads are not rugged enough. If so, the Ming army will definitely follow and pursue.

Thinking of this, he began to do Bumbutai's ideological work again, letting the queen mother and the little emperor take the lead and move the capital calmly, so as to reduce the chaos in the Qing Dynasty and reduce the losses caused by it.

Fortunately, this Bumbutai still knows how to measure. After Daishan tried her best to persuade her, she finally agreed to Daishan's plan, and she was willing to cooperate for her son.

Daishan persuaded Bumbutai, and immediately sent scouts to the grassland to prevent the Ming cavalry from raiding, and then began to arrange to move the capital.

As the news spread, thanks to the queen mother and the little emperor taking the lead, Jianlu would not be in chaos.

However, what they never expected was that at this moment, Kuaima Express sent a bad news to Shengjing.

"What?" Dai Shan stood up in shock when he heard it, and confirmed with an incredulous expression, "Anshan Post Fort was captured by the Ming army in just one day, and now the troops have reached Liaoyang?"

Dai Shan personally asked about the defense situation of Anshan Yibao, the distribution of troops, etc., and felt that no matter how powerful the Ming army was, it would definitely be no problem to defend it for ten and a half months.

Unexpectedly, it was conquered by the Ming army in one day, which made him a little unbelievable!

Anshan Yibao was conquered by the Ming army, which means that the Ming army opened the gates of Liaoyang and Shengjing!
