Chongzhen Undergraduates

"Wow!" All four were shocked.All the people present had their eyes fixed on Li Zicheng and Nanjing before, and no one had paid attention to the little Li Yan.

"As long as Li Yan is in Shandong, I, Dajin, will not be able to go south successfully. Shandong can threaten the safety of the capital anytime and anywhere."

"Impossible, Li Yan claims to be one hundred thousand, and he doesn't have many troops." Hauge didn't believe that Li Yan had the ability to attack the capital.

"Didn't your lord see that Li Yan's [-] soldiers is a real number? His avoidance of fighting is to try his best to avoid a decisive battle with my Dajin. As long as the [-] soldiers don't collapse, there will always be a deterrent."

"How to solve this situation?" Dorgon heard the excitement, and Hong Chengchou obviously grasped the key to the problem.

"I thought that even if Li Yan was wiped out, my Dajin would face resistance from hypocrisy. Zhu Youjian is no longer the Emperor Chongzhen that I knew before."

This is also the place where Hong Chengchou was most puzzled. He never expected Zhu Youjian to play such a beautiful move after crossing the south, forcibly turning a dead game into a game.

"Shandong is not the key to the overall situation, but only the beginning of the game. This game has already shown the situation of national power competition. I, Dajin, should make a plan early, and not just focus on Shandong."

"Mr. Hong, I don't understand this. You just said that Shandong is a poisonous thorn. Why do you say that Shandong is just a start?" Azige felt that Hong Chengchou was a bit alarmist.

"After Shandong, there is Huaisi. After Huaisi, there is Jiangfang. Zhu Youjian has set up multiple lines of defense to prevent my Dajin from going south. In the end, I will be dragged down by Dajin."

As soon as these words came out, even Da Yuer's face turned dark.This is tantamount to extinguishing the greatest hope in her heart.

"Hong Chengchou, you are bold!" Hauge jumped up, pointing at Hong Chengchou and about to scold him.

Dorgon raised his hand and pressed it and said, "What does Mr. Hong mean?"

"To the Regent: Because my Dajin's successors are not strong enough. My lord, please look, the population in the whole north is withered, and the land is barren. If the war is delayed, we will be in trouble!"

In fact, there is no need for Hong Chengchou to say that Dorgon at the helm has already realized this problem.Taking food alone as an example, it is already a bit difficult for Hou Jin to feed more than 30 troops.

Originally thought that as long as they entered the customs, they would have as much food as they wanted, but judging from this year, food is still in short supply.The entire north is just a piece of wasteland that has been smashed to pieces long ago, and its productivity is not as good as that of Liaodong.

In Henan, a major grain-producing province in the Central Plains, even half of the rations for the front-line army could not be supplied, so they had to be transported from Shanxi to the south.Shandong, where the situation is the best, is still under Li Yan's harassment.Even the consumption of the capital has to be supplemented by foreign customs.

"The minister has three strategies: one is to compete for population; to attract southerners to return to the north, to give acres of land to resume production. There is a large amount of wasteland in the north, and my Dajin has Mongolian animal power, so as to attract more southerners to go north."

"Hmph, I gave them all, and I'm going to drink the northwest wind?" Duoduo dismissed, Hong Chengchou's words were undoubtedly nonsense.

Dorgon glared at Dodo: "Sir, please continue."

"The second is: open a course as soon as possible to obtain a scholar, try my best to win the hearts of scholars in the Central Plains, and save talents for my big gold."

"We're already doing this!" Da Yu'er didn't understand, after Houjin occupied the capital, he had already held an imperial examination in the fall of last year, so why did he bring up this matter.Because of this matter, many Eight Banners have been dissatisfied and feel that they have taken away their official positions.

"It's far from enough. What Dajin wants to fight for is the world of the entire Han people, and we need a huge number of talents." Hong Chengchou shook his head. He knew very well that the gathering place of scholars in Ming Dynasty was Jiangnan, so if we don't attract scholars from Jiangnan, The imperial examination held in the capital is a joke.

"Third: Pay attention to firearms and rest your military equipment. I have also seen the so-called chariot that Prince Yu brought back to the capital. This thing is a newly-made defensive weapon. However, I think that this thing is not to be feared, as long as there are many cannons, It can be destroyed."

In order to get rid of the crime, Kong Youde abruptly snatched two Hussite chariots.This thing is almost not a myth.However, in Hong Chengchou's view, Duoduo's failure was just a lack of preparation, not how powerful the Hussite chariot itself was.

In addition to the Eight Banners, Hou Jin actually attached great importance to the use of firearms.On this point, he did not lag behind Daming at all.

"Is there any more?" The more Dorgon listened, the more dignified his expression became.

Chapter 2 and Three: Scarlet Fat City

"The above three policies are the basic national policies. In addition: I, Dajin, still need to give up attacking Shu, and contact Zheng Zhilong in Fujian to form a deterrent to false Ming."

What Hong Chengchou said made the room full of people even more puzzled. Everyone had never looked at the sea squarely, so why Zheng Zhilong was involved.

Hong Chengchou is from Fujian, and he knows much more about Zheng Zhilong than Houjin and others.He explained Zheng Zhilong's power and role in detail, which opened the eyes of this group of people.

In a word: win over all the warlords at all costs, and try to create trouble for Zhu Youjian.

"Sir, let's go back first! Thank you, sir, for your advice." Dorgon's heart was very heavy, Hong Chengchou's words today made him feel unprecedentedly difficult, and he was overwhelmed.

"Brother Fourteen, let's go back to Liaodong. As long as we guard Shanhaiguan, we won't be afraid that the Ming army will attack outside the pass." Duoduo was timid, and he never thought that it would be so difficult to conquer the world.

"Bastard! No matter how difficult it is, it's hard to raise an army with Ama's thirteen sets of armor?" Dorgon scolded his head and face.

Dorgon has a characteristic, that is, he is very tenacious.In the struggle with Huang Taiji back then, he persevered until the end, and directly overthrew Huang Taiji's eldest son Haoge. Although Fulin was established in the end, the real power was still in his hands.

Dorgon is a person who will never give up easily.

"Go and invite Fan Wencheng." For Hanchen, Dorgon only believed in Fan Wencheng.

This night was another sleepless night.Fan Wencheng talked with Dorgon and Dayuer all night.

On the second day of the court meeting, Emperor Dajin Fulin and Regent Dorgon jointly decreed that Hong Chengchou should be the governor of the three provinces. Except for the Eight Banners, the military affairs and government affairs of Henan, Hebei, and Shandong provinces should be under his sole command.

The government and the public were in a commotion.

The first thing Hong Chengchou did after taking office was to order all the Han army bannermen to rob people.Regardless of whether they are in the mountains or fleeing refugees, all those who are not registered in the household registration register will be arrested and resettled in designated places.

The second thing is to announce the implementation of joint sitting in Shandong. Anyone who encounters a bandit and does not report it, or who cooperates with the bandit, the whole village and family will sit together.If one person in the village colludes with the bandit, the whole village will be beheaded.Throughout Houjin, nearly [-] troops were dispatched to Shandong directly, actively preparing to encircle and suppress Li Yan.

In order to cooperate with Hong Chengchou's policy implementation, Dorgon issued two consecutive decrees: one is to change the imperial examination every three years to twice a year; the other is to order all the Mongolian ministries to donate cattle and horses; Easy to wear.

The first decree made scholars all over the north crazy, and many scholars rushed to shave their heads, lest they shave too slowly and fail to catch up with the exam.

The second decree caused resentment among the Mongolian ministries.I have been with Houjin for a few years, and I have paid people and money, but I haven't seen much benefit.

……

Shandong Feicheng.

Zheng Wei and his militiamen have been guarding the city for ten days. There are gaps everywhere in the city wall, and the wounded soldiers all over the city are scattered on the corners of the streets.

The cannons of the golden soldiers outside the city have never been interrupted, especially the red cannon, which can always take away a few lives after a cannon fire.

What's even more hateful is that the golden soldiers outside the city drove away the people in Luzhong, using their lives to consume the artillery fire of the defenders in Feicheng.

Standing on the city wall, Zheng Wei saw another group of people being driven to the front of the battle from afar.A golden soldier with a flag on his back galloped past the people on horseback.

"The supervisor has an order: If you can't take Feicheng, you will all be beheaded."

Zheng Wei only heard crying outside the city, and he couldn't remember which wave of people it was.

Hong Chengchou stood outside Shuai Zhang, watching the scene outside the city coldly.For Shandong, he completely used a policy of differential treatment.In other places in Shandong, the penalty for sitting down is confiscation of acres of land.As for Luzhong, Hong Chengchou only used one word: kill!

Feicheng was the first battle, and he didn't want to attack Tai'an directly at all, because he thought that before attacking Tai'an, he didn't kill enough people.

"The attack has begun." Hong Chengchou waved his hand, he was not interested in watching what happened next, and turned back to the tent.Inside the tent, Hauge was eating iced watermelon.

Zheng Wei knew that he was going to die, and he had a premonition since Hong Chengchou drove the first wave of people to attack the city.

He didn't need to stay in Feicheng originally, but after hearing that Hong Chengchou led the troops coming from Dong'e, Zheng Wei wanted to stop in Feicheng.He has different feelings for Feicheng, which embodies his youthful passion.

"My lord, the gunpowder is almost used up." A subordinate who had followed Zheng Wei for several years said miserably, with a face blackened by gunpowder, showing the only white teeth.
