Chapter 513 Why An Liaodong
Dorgon was in a bad mood, very bad. Novel.
The Jurchens bully him, and now even North Korea bullies him.
This is simply a shame for the Manchus.
When did the situation become like this?
As early as a few years ago, when the Qing Dynasty just entered the pass, wasn’t it vaguely going to unify the world?
Dorgon was a very cunning person and his skill in cultivating energy was also first-class.
But now, in front of a Han slave, he couldn't hold back his anger.
After working hard for a long time, he calmed himself down. He took a few deep breaths and said in a deep voice: "What Mr. Fan said is reasonable, because I am too angry. However, there are many people in the two ends of the rat in the middle of North Korea. I should scold him in the name of the court so that they know that my Qing Dynasty is not easy to bully."
"What does the prince mean to send an envoy to North Korea?"
Fan Wencheng was shocked.
Of course he knew that there are two factions in North Korea today, one of which is pro-Ming and the other is pro-Qing.
The strength of the pro-Ming faction and the pro-Qing faction are very close, and even the North Korean king is unstable.
In this case, Dorgon wanted to send an envoy to North Korea to scold their actions. Didn’t he force North Korea to the Ming court?
You should know that the Ming army's record against the Qing army has now achieved overtaking. If we only look at the recent battles, the Ming army even won all the overwhelming victory.
People's minds change.
Perhaps North Korea once feared the power of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty and surrendered, but would there be any other thoughts after seeing the Qing Dynasty defeated it?
Or
Fan Wencheng didn't dare to think about it because in his opinion, North Korea is still very clear in its core.
As long as the Ming court can see hope, North Korea will eventually fall into its arms.
"What, Mr. Fan thinks there is something wrong?"
Dorgon didn't care at all.
At this moment, he had already regarded the Qing Dynasty as a country above the Celestial Empire, and any vassal state that attempted to provoke the Qing Dynasty must be severely taught.
What's more, North Korea borders the Qing Dynasty's Dragon Rise, and its importance is self-evident.
If even North Korea is not convinced by the Qing Dynasty and clamors, what do other vassal congresses think about it in the future?
Will they rush to follow suit?
These are all issues that Dorgon needs to consider.
"The slaves think that North Korea should focus on appeasement."
Fan Wencheng hesitated for a moment and advised: "Prince, although North Korea is in material condition, it is only separated from Liaodong by a river. If you force the anti-North Korea in this case, it may be of no use to the situation in Liaodong."
Fan Wencheng had already said it very tactfully, but this was still very harsh to Dorgon's ears.
"What does it mean? Mr. Fan means that I can't even handle a small North Korea?"
"Slaves dare not."
Seeing Dorgon getting angry, Fan Wencheng quickly knelt down on the ground and apologized: "Slaves are also considering the overall situation. There are very few troops stationed in Liaodong now, and even Shengjing does not have many soldiers. If the Koreans really cooperate with the Ming army to attack, the Liaodong side will be very embarrassed."
As a slave, Fan Wencheng certainly has no decision-making power.
The decision-making power lies with Dorgon.
But he must fulfill his responsibilities and say what he should say.
If Dorgon really doesn't adopt his will, he has no choice.
Fan Wencheng buried his head very low, raised his butt high, apologizing in an extremely funny and awkward position.
Dorgon walked around Fan Wencheng for a few times.
There were several times when he wanted to raise his foot and kick the slave hard on the butt, but in the end he still held it back.
The Qing Dynasty is now at the moment when people are employed. Fan Wencheng is already an outstanding existence among all the people.
In the past, Dorgon could rely on Hong Chengchou and would rather do it, but now he really can't think of anyone else to use except Fan Wencheng.
Of course, there are many powerful generals among the Eight Banners of Manchuria. But these people are brave and lack wisdom.
In the end, Dorgon found that it was the best time to use the old slave who followed Lao Khan to fight the country.
"Get up."
Dorgon sighed and stepped forward to help Fan Wenchengxu up.
"Thank you, the prince."
Fan Wencheng felt relieved.
The atmosphere just now was very cold, and he really didn't know what decision Dorgon would make next.
He had been imprisoned once and had a deep fear of the high walls and really didn't want to be locked up again.
"In Mr. Na, how should North Korea appease?"
Dorgon still gave in.
Fan Wencheng hurriedly said: "I have a plan, the prince is like this."
Dorgon listened to Fan Wencheng's analysis in full and nodded frequently.
"This is really a good way. But who should I send?"
The candidates who go to North Korea are very particular, they must be able to withstand pressure and must have sufficient aura. Moreover, the status of this person cannot be too low, otherwise it will not be enough to represent the Qing court.
After thinking about it, Dorgon could not think of a suitable candidate.
"If the prince refuses to give up, please recommend yourself."
After hesitating for a moment, Fan Wencheng gritted his teeth and said.
"oh?"
Dorgon was a little surprised.
"Mr. Fan is going to North Korea?"
"I have been deeply grateful to the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and it is time for me to do some effort."
"Let me think about it."
For a moment, Dorgon was a little difficult to make a decision.
Fan Wencheng is old after all, and North Korea is far away. I don’t know how much time it takes to travel this trip.
What if Fan Wencheng has a long and two shorts on the road?
What if he dies of illness on the road?
At present, Dorgon is only a good servant like Fan Wencheng. If Fan Wencheng dies, Dorgon will not even have a single available person.
Fan Wencheng was not in a hurry, just waited quietly.
He believed that Dorgon would give him an answer sooner or later.
I don’t know how long it took, but Dorgon’s fist clenched and loosened, loose and clenched again.
Finally, he said, "Mr. Fan should stay in the capital. I will decide who will go to North Korea."
"Slave obeys the order"
Although I was a little disappointed, Fan Wencheng didn't have much to say.
After all, this is the master’s decision. It is necessary to respect the master’s decision as a slave.
"You go down first."
Dorgon waved his hand a little tired.
"Slaves obey the order."
Fan Wencheng was about to leave, but before he reached the door, he was stopped by Dorgon.
"etc!"
"What are the prince's instructions?"
Fan Wencheng turned around and asked respectfully.
"What do you think of this gentleman Wu Sangui?"
King Wu Sangui of Pingxi?
Fan Wencheng was slightly surprised.
Why did the Regent suddenly ask about this person?
Wu Sangui's deeds are well known to the world. If he hadn't given up Shanhaiguan, the Qing Dynasty might not have been able to successfully enter the pass and take over the northern regions.
It can be said that Wu Sangui made great contributions.
But Wu Sangui has also suffered many defeats in recent years.
