After Dorgon and Li Yongfang returned to Shenyang with the result of the peace talks, Huang Taiji did not take his anger at Dorgon and Li Yongfang, who were in charge of this peace talks because the Ming Dynasty wanted to form a father-son country with him.

On the contrary, Huang Taiji also rewarded the two of them greatly and asked Dorgon to take over the Zhengbai Banner and also to take over the Zhenghong Banner of Daishan.

The prince Li Yongfang was also promoted to marquis and was promoted to the commander of the Zhenghuang Banner of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty.

Although Huang Taiji knew that with his current strength of the Qing Dynasty, he could not get any benefits from the Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, Huang Taiji also knew that it was a great gift for them to no longer prohibit the Ming Dynasty.

Although before this, private merchants and border generals still secretly sent food, iron and other living materials to Manchuria, it is still difficult to solve the increasingly serious natural disasters and the survival crisis brought to Manchuria by the increasing population.

Especially after Zhu Youxiao confiscated the eight major Shanxi merchants and increased control over the border troops, Huang Taiji had to enter the pass in advance to invade the Ming Dynasty.

But Huang Taiji had to admit that as long as the Ming Dynasty had not yet had a large-scale peasant uprising and as long as the Ming emperor could still control the country, the Ming Dynasty would be in chaos, and Huang Taiji could only hope to reconcile with the Ming court, rather than relying on war to resolve the crisis, because the latter was even more difficult.

Therefore, Huang Taiji understood that they really had no reason to ask for other benefits, and Dorgon was able to negotiate such a result, which was also the result of his efforts.

However, Huang Taiji did not give up the idea of ​​entering the Central Plains one day.

Huang Taiji has changed the Wenguan to the Nei National History Academy, Nei Secretary Academy, and Nei Hong Wenyan Academy. Fan Wencheng, the most capable strategist around Huang Taiji, was naturally regarded as a guest of honor and became the Grand Secretary of the Nei Secretary Academy.

On this day, Huang Taiji heard that Fan Wencheng was slightly ill, and even came to Fan Wencheng's house to visit him. Fan Wencheng, who was already infected with the habits of Tartar slaves, was so scared that he knelt down on the ground: "Master, but the slave did not know. Please punish him!"

Now Fan Wencheng has become one of the few senior staff members who can call themselves slaves in front of Huang Taiji, so he suddenly speaks the word "slave" after seeing Huang Taiji.

"Get up, don't be so polite. I'm here to find you today because I heard that you are sick and come to see you, and I want to talk to you. Now, we have reached a settlement with the Ming Dynasty, but whether it is Zhu Youxiao or I, we all know that this contract is just a delaying strategy. At least I don't want the Zhu family members to occupy the great land within the pass!"

After Huang Taiji said that, he sat directly on the chair opposite Fan Wencheng and asked again: "In your opinion, how long can the Ming Dynasty survive?"

In Huang Taiji's view, there were many crises in the Ming Dynasty, and the administration was already unbearable, and the disputes between the party and the corruption continued, so it would not be unsuccessful.

Moreover, he was familiar with history and did not think that there was a dynasty in this world that could enjoy the country for more than 200 years and could come for another two hundred years. It was as powerful as the Han and Tang Dynasties, and only two or three hundred years ago, so he asked this question.

"What the master said is very much. Even if Zhu Youxiao is determined to revive the Ming Dynasty, he is unable to turn the world back. Moreover, the servant observed the sky last night, and the purple star had moved north. It can also show that the destiny is in your master, you are not in your Zhu Youxiao. The Zhu family ruler has made people live in poverty for more than two hundred years. Disasters have been caused by the people. Even if you don't attack him, the Zhu family's Ming Dynasty will only last twenty years."

Fan Wencheng's words made Huang Taiji nodded: "Sir, this is reasonable, but now is not the time to fight again with the Ming court. The most urgent thing is that Yuan Chonghuan and Mao Wenlong, the two forces behind us, disturbed our Qing Dynasty. If these two thieves are not eliminated, I cannot concentrate my troops to seize the Daling River from Wu Xiang's troops."

When Huang Taiji mentioned this, Fan Wenchen nodded silently and said yes.

Both of them knew that the most threat to the Qing Dynasty was not the Ming Dynasty, nor the Wu Xiang troops of the Guanning Army, who were also preparing for war and raising their strength, but the wandering and often attacking Yuan Chonghuan and Mao Wenlong behind the Qing Dynasty.

However, Fan Wencheng knew that since Huang Taiji came to find him, he naturally had to give him a solution.

So, before Huang Taiji could ask again, Fan Wencheng stood up and bowed to Huang Taiji:

"Master, don't worry. Although these two thieves are uncertain, they are not without solutions. As far as I know, Yuan Chonghuan was a civil servant, while Mao Wenlong was originally a military officer in Denglai. Yuan Chonghuan tried hard to get rid of Mao Wenlong before this, but because of Zhu Youxiao's obstruction, Mao Wenlong was not punished. However, because of this, the rift between the two is getting bigger and bigger. From the perspective of me, since we have reached a reconciliation with the Ming Dynasty, it is better to send someone to secretly communicate with Yuan Chonghuan and have a good relationship with him;

If Yuan Chonghuan instigated Yuan Chonghuan to get rid of Mao Wenlong, it can be seen that Yuan Chonghuan had been brave enough to kill North Korean generals since he was sent to North Korea. This person is brave and ambitious. If we provoke him and don’t worry about not killing Mao Wenlong, as long as he kills Mao Wenlong, Yuan Chonghuan’s Korean soldiers will be alone. At that time, it will be easy for us to use the reason that North Korea invades my border and attack the North Korea and destroy Yuan Chonghuan’s troops.

After hearing Fan Wencheng say this, Huang Taiji nodded in agreement: "Sir is worthy of being my son's house. As you said, Yuan Chonghuan is very talented, stubborn, and has a small talent. He cannot tolerate martial arts such as Mao Wenlong. This is a long-standing problem of the scholars and officials of the Ming court. I can use this to ask him Yuan Chonghuan to help me get rid of Mao Wenlong's trouble; but whoever meets Yuan Chonghuan needs to be considered again and again."

Fan Wencheng hurriedly said: "It's better for me to go there personally. When Yuan Chonghuan was in charge of Liaodong in the past, I met him."

...

Time has turned into summer. Except for Chang Yanling and three other battalions, including Chang and Guangxi, who were going to the southwest and Guangdong and Guangxi, but did not arrive, the commanders of the other battalions have already started recruiting troops.

Liu Bin, who was responsible for recruiting soldiers in the Gyeonggi area, almost completed the recruitment work. Most of the people in this area had some hatred with the Tartars, so they were very active in responding to the call, and many of them were even scholars who had already made great achievements.

Qin Botong, who was responsible for recruiting soldiers in Xuzhou, was standing on a school ground provided by a thousand households, and standing in front of him was the first group of newly summoned soldiers of the Imperial Guards.

However, although the Imperial Guards have high military salaries and there are many refugees now without land, there are not many people coming to apply for the conscription, and there were tens of thousands of people in the first batch alone, Qin Botong was very disappointed with this.

Because the call soldiers standing in front of him were almost the same as beggars, most of whom were thin and very few were big and round.

Moreover, these people who were called to stand without standing or sitting, and even the officers and soldiers of the Imperial Guards such as Qin Botong taught for a week before most of them could distinguish them.

However, just because of the small matter of turning left and right, thousands of people were eliminated.

And Obai is not well, and the people in Qin are not full of food at all. Now I heard that they can join the army to eat food, so almost all the villagers have arrived in some places.

Oboi had to find local prefectures and counties to exclude the elderly or the only son at home. Then, according to the principles proposed by Zhu Youxiao, he left 30,000 people to prepare for training. Only after the training camp was completed were determined to be left. Generally, during the training camp, someone would automatically leave.

Fu Dahai's recruitment work in Huguang was also going smoothly, but the elimination rate was also very high.
Chapter completed!
