Chapter 214 Southern Dynasty

When Duoduo heard this, he showed a sarcastic look on his face and said, "Then Shi Kefa and other emperors of the Southern Ming Dynasty also sent envoys to seek peace, saying that they wanted to ask our Qing soldiers to pursue the bandits and withdraw from the capital. They claimed to be loyal and righteous, and they were afraid they would not cut off their country's title and ask for surrender."

Dorgon said casually: "Even if this generation really cut off the national name, the army must go south to destroy the Southern Ming."

"Regent." Duoduo said: "In the Jin Dynasty, many troops were sent to conquer the south, and finally killed Yu and returned. The south was covered with water and the weather was hot. We northerners were afraid that we were not used to it, and the way of riding and shooting could not be used. The regent must not ignore this. If I were to say, Li Chuang was destroyed, and all the lands in the north of the Ming Dynasty were divided into rivers with the southerners. Just like the Jin Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty, they made them call their sons and nephews and pay tribute to our Qing Dynasty every year. However, for the Mongolians and the tribes on the grassland, they must ban salt and iron, and reduce their tribute every year to prevent the Mongolians from destroying Jin to our Qing Dynasty again."

Although Duoduo was successful at a young age and was favored by Nurhaci since he was a child, he was at least a prince of the banner who had been around for more than ten years. He was surrounded by knowledgeable people. He usually had to manage the banner affairs and also participated in the highest level of military and political affairs of the Qing court. Therefore, his knowledge was also common sense, and even quite insightful.

The current Qing court princes and princes did not understand the Han people decades ago by relying on the tactics of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Dorgon also smiled and said, "The starlings had considered these things back then. Many people said that they could get the north of the Ming Dynasty, and they could control the rivers with the southerners, and even the Yellow River. Everyone said that the Khitan and the Jin Dynasty conquered the north and the southerners, and their national fortunes were not bad. The Mongols were originally strong, but after winning the Han people, they became arrogant and degenerate. For decades, they fled back to the grassland and lost their foundation in the north. However, the starlings said that it was because the Mongols had never really subdued the Han people, but they were conquered on the surface and allowed them to keep their clothes and hair. The Hu people's hair styles were different from the Han people, just like a handful of pepper powder scattered in a large soup pot, either melted by others or driven by others.

Therefore, first, we cannot stop at the big river and the Yangtze River. We must unify the world, otherwise we must not last long. Second, we must change the clothes and hair of the Han people, otherwise we will be like the Mongols, and at most we will have a foothold for decades. The Han people are weaker than a moment, but a billion people will definitely produce heroes like Zhu Yuanzhang. At that time, our younger generations will not be successful, and we will probably suffer the disaster of extermination. So I set two goals, one is to destroy the entire Ming Dynasty, and the other is to change the clothes and hair of the Han people. As long as these Han people are allowed to read the Confucian classics and then respect Confucius, they will recognize us as the lord of China. As long as scholars, that is, gentry agree, the world will be settled."

Duoduo said: "Changing clothes, hair and hair is probably to arouse the Han people's resistance."

Dorgon said proudly: "There are hundreds of Han people outside the pass still hundreds of thousands of people who shave their heads? If they don't shave their heads, they will die, and if they shave their heads, they will live. According to the habits of the Han people, they will always be inferior."

"It's good that the Regent is the master of the family. If you want me to fight, I will fight!"

"I plan to ask Ajige to lead his troops to conquer Li Zicheng, and you are the deputy, Sanshun Kings and Wu Sangui, and all follow the army south." Dorgon said: "If the conquer Li Zicheng is successful, you will lead the troops of this banner, and then choose Sanshun Kings or Wu Sangui's unit, follow you south and cross the river to destroy the Nanming!"

"It is up to the Regent to do everything."

In fact, Duoduo should be more respectful at this time. Some princes and princes had already called themselves slaves to the regent. After a few years, Dorgon first changed his name to his uncle Regent, and later he was appointed as the regent of the emperor's father. By then, except for Emperor Shunzhi, all the princes and princes of the Eight Banners met Dorgon with the ritual of slaves. Dorgon took the strength of the two white banners and the power of all Han people, and almost no one in the Eight Banners dared to disobey.

But after his death, not only Dorgon, Ajige, but also Dodor were liquidated and all his titles and inheritance were seized. Even the two white flags were in trouble and were suppressed miserably by the two yellow flags.

Fortunately, the Eight Banners have two red flags. The responsibility of these two flags is to not compete for the throne, but to reconcile the disputes within the Eight Banners and not to expand the disputes too much.

This is a tradition passed down by Daishan and his nephews. Until the late Qing Dynasty, the two red flags had such a tradition of harmonizing the internal one.

"As for you to say that the rivers and rivers in the south are all over the rivers," Dorgon smiled and said, "In the Jin Dynasty, the most people who participated in the Jin Dynasty were the Han people from the north, and they were not very clear about the situation of the southern people. Now there are many southerners in the Ming Dynasty who have been demoted to the emperor, especially Hong Chengchou. He has reported to me many times, asking me to be sure to be a Hunyuan Yiyu, and must not give up halfway. In addition, he has long reported to the Ming Dynasty that the civil and military generals and officials of the Southern Ming Dynasty were second-rate figures in the Ming Dynasty. Whether it was Ma Shiying or Shi Kefa, these people were incompetent, and they were only used as second-rate people in Chongzhen's hands. First-rate people, from Sun Chengzong Xiong Tingbi to Lu Xiangsheng, Hong Chengchou, and Sun Chuanting, they were either dead or used by me, and civil officials were like this.

, This is especially true for military generals. The generals of the Wu family and the generals of the northwest of the Ming Dynasty, either died in battle or surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. Most of the people who stayed in the south were second- and third-rate figures. They could not lead troops to fight and had no loyalty. Hong asserted that as long as my army went south, these people would either surrender quickly like Tang Tong or flee in sight. The land in Jiangnan reached Fujian, Zhejiang, Huguang, and would be owned by our Qing Dynasty within half a year to a year. By then, the Ming Dynasty had only a few provinces in Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangdong, Guangxi, Sichuan, and the land in the southwest and Guangdong in Guangdong had always been remote places in the Ming Dynasty. It had never been the foundation of the king's business. Hong said that by then, the destiny of the Qing Dynasty would be settled, and the unification would be successful, and there would be no possibility of failure."

The one who suggested that the Qing Dynasty attacked Ming was the most powerful person, actually Fan Wencheng, Ning Yuanwo, Hong Chengchou and others.

They come from their understanding of Chinese history and know that inunited local forces will sooner or later be destroyed by emerging forces. This is inevitable.

For the sake of their family's prosperity and wealth, as well as historical evaluation, they are of course the most steadfast supporters of unifying the world.

Even for the surrendered generals such as Wu Sangui, in order to make wealth and not leave a reputation for eternity, they hope to create a great cause of unification.

Like Zhang Hongfan, who destroyed the Song Dynasty, he was scolded for hundreds of years and helped the Han people in the Khitan and Jin Kingdom, and he was also notorious.

The main reason is that the Mongolian ruled for a short time, while the Khitan and the Jin Kingdom did not become forces that unify the country.

If they could help the Qing Dynasty unify the world and pass on it for a long time, they would be founding heroes and would be criticized after no mention of the country.

Among them, Hong Chengchou is the most determined because his reputation is also the worst.

Why did Emperor Chongzhen directly pay tribute to the poem after Hong Chengchou was in battle? Because before Hong, the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty, whether they were fighting against the Jurchens or fighting against bandits, as long as they failed, no one would die for their country.

From the commander-in-chief, to the prefectural and county magistrates and even to assist in miscellaneous officials.

Before the 14th year of Chongzhen, the most part were the scholars who committed suicide. In fact, local officials, literati and scholars were not uncaptured, but none of them were followed by thieves.

Once you die, you will be protected by your ministers and your reputation. This is the most basic ethics of being an official and a person.

The Donglu were a barbarian and alien race, and the killing of Han people was very miserable. Not to mention that Hong Chengchou was a minister of management and trusted by the emperor, even if he was an insignificant minor official, it should not be difficult to die for the country before the great righteousness.

Don’t look at the moral standards of the future, people in that era have their own code of conduct.

This is also what makes Hong Chengchou feel shocked and surprised that everyone is not dead.

It is precisely because of this that Hong Chengchou wanted to devote all his efforts to seek the entire world for the Qing Dynasty.

If the Qing Dynasty did not win the world in the end, it was always in a corner of Liaodong, and was eventually destroyed by the Ming Dynasty and the emerging dynasty, then the historical evaluation of Mr. Hong can be imagined.

Hong Chengchou never expected that several years later, Qianlong personally decided in the Qing Dynasty and Ming history, and compiled it into the biography of traitors. Officials determined the officials to be traitors and rebellious ministers. If there was any knowledge underground, they would not know what they thought.

"If this is the case, it will not be difficult to get the Southern Dynasty."

"It's not difficult." Dorgon claimed to be very high, and his entry into the capital of Ming Dynasty was also extremely decisive. He seized the opportunity of Xin on the front line and entered the pass to accept Wu Sangui's request to surrender. After fighting with the main force of the Shun Army, he even entered the capital, which made the Eight Banners admire him. His prestige also increased significantly at this time. After all, from Nurhaci to Huang Taiji, all of them regarded destroying the Ming Dynasty as the most important task. This task was completed by Dorgon.

"The surrender of the Southern Man Hong Chengchou was the end of his luck in the civil servant. The surrender of the military officer Wu Sangui was the extinction of the military aura. Such a strong boss and the way of civil and military is invincible. How can there be a natural law if it is not destroyed?"

"There won't be any surprises?"

"Don't worry, little 15." Dorgon showed a kind smile on his face. Dorgon didn't have much affection for his brother Ajige, but he was a mother brother after all. So after Huang Taiji's death, Dorgon forgave this brother who was not aware of the matter but was extremely brave in marching and fighting, and regarded him as his most capable thug.

As for Dodo, Dorgon had some brotherly feelings in his heart. For Manchu nobles, this kind of normal human family affection is actually quite rare.

It's okay for Huang Taiji to kill Amin, but he was just a cousin, but when he joined forces with his father Khan Daishan and others to kill his elder brother Chu Ying, everyone was afraid of the strength and strength of this elder brother. Not only did Nurhaci kill his younger brother, but when his son threatened him, he would still be able to kill him.

Then Huang Taiji killed Mangguertai, killed his brother Degele, and killed his sister Mangguji. Among his relatives, there were many brothers, sisters, and nephews who were killed.

At Dorgon, he did not kill the royal family at this time, but he would soon settle Haoge and others, and he would never have the idea of ​​being merciful.

Only Dorgon had some true feelings for Dodo, and was appointed as the king, so that he led his troops to gain the heart of the Southern Dynasty and was appointed as Prince Yude. After Dodo's death, Dorgon was extremely sad and honored after his death.
