The meeting ended, and the next day, Prince Xun Chang Adae was robbed of his title. At the same time, the Shunzhi and the Ministers of the Political Consultative Affairs Council passed a decision to enthrone Chang Adae's cousin, Daishan's other grandson, Jieshu, as Prince Kang, to continue the title of prince of Prince Li Daishan and the banner leader of Zhenghongqi.

Prince Kang Jieshu was a famous royal general in the Qing Dynasty during the Three Feudal Rebellion. He successively suppressed Geng Jingzhong and Zheng Jing's strategy to Zhejiang and Fujian provinces. However, at this moment, this famous royal general was only eleven years old and was still a child...

A few days later, the Eight Banners Army in the capital completed the mobilization at a speed that was not inferior to those in Liaodong. Three thousand Eight Banners of Manchus, five thousand Eight Banners of Han Army and two thousand Eight Banners of Mongolia completed the assembly at the fastest speed.

When everyone thought that this was the second new army was about to start training, Doni and Fushou, who had been unable to wait, led the army to leave the capital and headed straight for Shanhaiguan. Even the green camp in Zhili was left on the road by them.

It was mid-May. The Eight Banners Army, under the banner of going to Liaodong to catch fish skins, left Shanhaiguan. The forced Han auxiliary soldiers worked hard to transport food and supplies, but they could only endure hunger and could only divide a bowl of porridge and a piece of coarse grain cake in a day.

Every day, auxiliary soldiers fell to death on the road. The only thing that is thankful is that it is mid-May, and the weather in Liaodong is not too cold. There are also some wild vegetables, mushrooms and other foods in the wild. For example, when the Qing Dynasty was outside the pass, the auxiliary soldiers starved to death. Many of them were tragic on the road. Finally, it was a bit stronger. At least, when the army approached the Yalu River, the auxiliary soldiers were only one-quarter less, which was a great blessing.

"There are too many leftovers outside, so we will waste our military rations next."

"It's okay. Let the Han people follow and grab it. The Koreans are all like pigs and sheep. With these Han people helping us, our Eight Banners Army can save a lot of effort. The key is to break into Seoul as soon as possible and capture the Korean king Li and others back."

"I'm right, my uncle still remembers that the Korean king was still hostage in Shenyang. This time our Eight Banners Army entered North Korea, so he wouldn't be scared to death."

"Ha ha ha ha."

King Lee of Korea was captured by the Qing army as a hostage for the Qing army during the chaos. Later, his brother was released by the Qing army. Because of the incident of father welcoming son, the pro-Ming faction in the Korean Korean Kingdom angered the pro-Ming faction, and was poisoned to death. The prince died suddenly, and Li Cai, as his younger brother, was able to ascend the throne, and was for Emperor Xiaozong.

It was precisely because he was a hostage to the Qing Dynasty and his brother died at the hands of the Ming Dynasty, especially because the pro-Ming faction in the Korean Korean Kingdom was extremely powerful. After Li ascended the throne, he paid tribute to the Qing Dynasty, while he used the banner of pro-Ming in one acre of three-point land in the country to prepare for the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains.

At that time, in order to implement the plan, Li increased the Imperial Camp Army stationed in Seoul from 7,000 to 21,000. The Imperial Guards increased from 600 to 1,000, and all of them were reorganized into cavalry. The Imperial Camp Army added artillery attack troops, and planned to increase the training and supervision army to guard Seoul and the Imperial Camp Army to 20,000.

But the final result is very funny. Due to financial difficulties, the birthplace of world civilization is said to have occupied the entire Asia. Even Confucius was their cosmic country. In the end, he was unable to realize the expansion plan of the 44,000 infantry, 400 cavalry and some artillery soldiers.

In order to solve the dilemma of financial difficulties, Li vigorously promoted the Datong Law, which increased fiscal revenue, and also promoted the comprehensive development of North Korea's agriculture, handicrafts and commerce.

To be able to achieve such a result, if you want to kill the thief but have no power to turn the world back, if you don’t say it’s overestimating yourself. If you look at it from political considerations and historical results, it is actually hard to say whether the king really wants to fight the Northern Expedition. At least he used the slogan of his own to promote reform and strengthen the royal power. The army did not even realize its expansion, let alone the Northern Expedition. On the contrary, in the eighth year of Yongli and the twelfth year of Yongli, he sent troops twice to assist the Qing army in resisting Russia's erosion of the Heilongjiang River Basin.

The Datong Law began very early, but was strongly resisted by the Korean landlord class. It took a hundred years to complete its promotion throughout North Korea until 1708 AD. Today, in 1656 AD, the situation in North Korea is still as financially difficult as Doni pointed out.

On the same day as he arrived at the Yalu River, Doni and Fushou pulled off the banner of the Tartars, using the excuse that North Korea and two Ming troops in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Fujian conducted maritime trade, and sold a large amount of food and raw materials related to weapon manufacturing. They failed to abide by their duties and were suspected of colluding with the Ming army, and thus crossed the Yalu River in large numbers.

The Eight Banners Army entered North Korea and defeated the caught off guard in Pyongyang, Haiju and other places, and massacred the two cities on the pretext of the Korean army's resistance. Subsequently, the army approached Seoul, and hastily dispatched the royal army and the garrison of Gangwon Do from the nearby Gangwon Do and Chungcheong Do were once again defeated by the Qing army.

As for the Imperial Camp Army, which had been planned to be expanded, retreated into Seoul after losing the field battle. As a result, Seoul defended for even one day and was captured by the Qing army. After abandoning its weapons and surrendering, the Imperial Camp Army was killed outside the city by Fushou.

Next, the Green Camp from Zhili arrived and the army began to sweep the whole country of North Korea. Just like the two attacks on North Korea during the Huang Taiji era, the Qing army rushed in North Korea, and the troops from all over the North Korea were defeated one by one by the Qing army. The various routes of North Korea were soon occupied by the Qing army, and the only ones left were those islands.

Behind the Qing army's devastating offensive, the sudden attack was one point, but more importantly, the Korean army's combat effectiveness was low. Three large-scale field battles, the muskets could still remain in state. Once they entered hand-to-hand combat, the entire army would be defeated in a short while. The speed was faster than when the Eight Banners Army suppressed the Shandong rebel army in Shandong.

After capturing Seoul, Doni and Fushou quickly found evidence of their crimes. For example, to commemorate the Ionchen War, North Korea was still using the Chongzhen reign title, for example, the Korean monarch and ministers secretly stated that Emperor Wanli had "re-creation grace" for North Korea, and the Ming and North Korea were "righteous, the monarch and ministers were the same as father and son". In China, the Qing emperor was called "Hu emperor", the Qing envoy was "envoy" and so on.

With these evidences, Doni and Fushou directly escorted the King of the Li Dynasty, the royal family, and the captured court officials who did not take the initiative to cooperate with the Qing army. The various Korean traitors used the traitors to rule the country, plundered food, grass, and goods for the Qing Dynasty, and formed a traitor troops in North Korea to assist the Qing army in suppressing resistance in various places.

The Qing army's destruction and actual rule over North Korea began, with a large amount of money, grain and raw materials continuously transported to the capital. From entering North Korea, in just over a month, the Qing army was so fast that it was beyond everyone's expectations. After the alliance with Mongolian tribes was completed, Shunzhi, who had just returned to the capital, summoned Liu Cheng over before he could breathe evenly.

"My dear, North Korea is about to step down, and the pressure on money and food is about to be alleviated. How is the progress of the new army now?"

The New Army was the reliance of the Qing Dynasty in the future when facing the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and Shunzhi was naturally the one that Shunzhi was most concerned. Liu Cheng knew that Shunzhi was summoned, so he was naturally asking about this matter and was well prepared.

"If you go back to the emperor, the training of the new army has begun. The slaves follow Prince Zheng and the co-organizers to train every day. The training of the new army has basically taken shape, but it will take several months to form combat effectiveness."

Doni and Fushou sent troops from the capital to the entry of North Korea, and then to the destruction of the country, it had been several months. During this period, the training of the new army never delayed even one day, and the training intensity was no less than that of the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

However, the European phalanx is difficult to adapt to the Eight Banners Army, which is used to fighting with personal martial arts, especially the weapons are spears and muskets. For the Eight Banners Army, which are used to using swords, shields, bows and arrows and other types of weapons, the first thing to solve is the weapon training problem. In addition, the Eight Banners Army itself has many bad habits and traditions, and it can form combat effectiveness in a few months, but it is still a little worse than Liu Cheng's eyes to be able to fight the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

"No hurry, I have received a secret report that the Zhejiang bandits are attacking Fujian and Guangdong, and it is unlikely that they will go north this year. Moreover, in the southwest, it is said that the Western thief Li Dingguo robbed the pseudo-emperor Yongli, and now they are at odds with Sun Kewang, and the military pressure in northern Huguang has been greatly reduced. Since the Zhejiang bandits attacked Fujian and Guangdong, they will get involved in it. At that time, I am afraid that they may not be able to free up next year."

Hearing this, Liu Cheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and then fell to the ground. "I congratulate the emperor and congratulate the emperor. The bandits broke out in internal strife. This is clearly a symbol of the still-present luck of the Qing Dynasty."

From a political and military perspective, the Ming army in the southwest was in conflict, the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang swept Fujian and Guangdong, and Chen Wen was able to deal with the two fan halls of Shang Geng, who had already announced that they were correct. The other Ming army would also be wary of it, and Yongli would have a sense of crisis. The Chen Wen family is now the dominant family in the south, but if they really want to fight, it will not only take time, but also weaken the vitality of the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. It is very beneficial to the Qing Dynasty no matter how you look at it.

There were frequent internal struggles among the various forces in the Southern Ming Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty was inexplicably resolved due to internal struggles in the Ming army. The words such as destiny and luck were endless. This time, it seemed that they were going to replicate the past. Of course, Liu Cheng's words were also what Shunzhi was willing to listen to.

The strategic initiative changed hands, and time became the enemy of the Qing Dynasty. Now the Northern Expedition of the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang was obviously delayed, so the Qing Dynasty had more time to prepare, which was the biggest good thing.

"The new army cannot use the green camp, only the Eight Banners can reassure me. However, this delay will only last for a year or two. The number of people in each banner has dropped sharply, and there are many disabled people left. There are not many bannermen who can become resident in the past or two years, which really makes me feel worried."

The population problem is the biggest hidden danger and practical problem of the Qing Dynasty. One person had only 50,000 people on the eve of entering the pass. After entering the pass, there were only more than 40,000 people in the past battles. With Chen Wen's rise, the Manchu ethnic group lost nearly 10,000 people again. Now there are only more than 30,000 people in the banner, including many disabled people. Even with the eight banners of the Mongolian and Han army as auxiliary, these two armies also suffered a lot of losses. The country started with force, and the number of men has dropped sharply, and the result is particularly terrifying.

"A slave occasionally gains something and wants to give advice to the emperor."

Shunzhi spread the core issues with Liu Cheng, which was also a kind of win over him. In fact, even if he didn't mention it, wouldn't he know that Liu Cheng was responsible for training in the new army? However, Liu Cheng had an idea and Shunzhi was still quite looking forward to this slave who had already surprised him.

"Your dear, come quickly."

Shunzhi was like this, Liu Cheng coughed lightly, and then said to Shunzhi: "I think that the new army cannot be a single person without the Eight Banners, and the Eight Banners cannot be without Manchu for a day. However, the Manchu noble race is weaker than the Han people in Dingkou. Therefore, the late emperor created the Mongolian and Han army Eight Banners as a supplement."

"The Eight Banners are now declining. It is one thing to wait for the young to become a teenager to become a resident. It is also a good way to catch the fishing Tartars, but the Zhejiang bandits are powerful. With Chen Ni's speed of expanding the army, Manchuria cannot compare with it. In the end, it is necessary to enrich the Eight Banners of Mongolia and Han army."

This was the consensus of the high-level members of the Qing Dynasty. When Shunzhi heard this, he nodded and then explained to Liu Cheng: "I have discussed with the kings to recruit Mongolian warriors from the south and north of the Moon to enrich the Mongolian Eight Banners. The Han army carried the flags of the Green Camp generals and troops who were loyal to the court to restore the strength of the Han army's Eight Banners."

"In this alliance, the troops in the south of the Mo River are more respectful. Soon, Mongolian warriors will come to Kouwai and other places to participate. On the other side of the Green Camp, the Zhili Green Camp that conquered North Korea, assisted in the encirclement and suppression of bandits in Shandong Green Camp, and the meritorious green camps in the north and northern Huguang are all within the alternative range. In addition, Zhang Tianfu, the general general of the Han and Qiang in Shaanxi, had his brother righteous and was very capable of fighting, so he should be transferred back to the capital to carry the flag..."

Most of the Liu Cheng mentioned by Shunzhi knew about it, but the matter of Zhang Tianfu, the general of Han and Qiang, was only discussed not long ago, because it involves Zhang Tianlu, a military general who failed to restrain the Ming army in Jiangnan and was instead restrained by Qian Yingkui's rebel army in Suzhou.

Shunzhi and some relatives thought that Zhang Tianlu had committed suicide, and he was loyal. He was the main force before supporting Jiangning and defeating Zheng Chenggong, which should be another matter. However, the Lanqi was quite dissatisfied with Jiergalang's death and took his anger on many officials under Jiergalang's command at that time. Shunzhi persuaded him for a long time before he had such a result.

However, compared to Zhang Tianfu's problem, the alliance with Mongolian tribes made Shunzhi even more worried. Mongolians in the south of the Moon, but none of the Mongolian tribes in the north of the Moon, who had been conquered by Yue Le, came. They all used various reasons to perfunctory reasons. Obviously, they felt that there were not many good days in the Qing Dynasty, and they were afraid of getting angry. In addition, their location was high and the emperor was far away, so they were just like this.

Liu Cheng had heard it carefully and knew very well that some things were not as easy as Shunzhi said. In fact, when he was responsible for the training in the new army, he could feel the guardians of the Manchu nobles towards him.

However, Liu Cheng has always been very clear about his own positioning, and even more so knows what he wants and how to obtain it. With the lessons of his mistakes in the Cao Conglong Rebellion, when he arrived at the Qing Dynasty, even if he was guarded and excluded, he naturally looked like a loyal dog slave on weekdays.
