Fan Wencheng knew that Haoge was the loser in the battle for the throne, so Dorgon and many Manchu nobles around him were particularly disliked by Haoge and always tried every means to attack Haoge. It was not until Shunzhi ascended the throne that Haoge was able to restore its original title to Prince Heshuosu.

Moreover, although Haoge nominally presided over the Shandong front, he could only "determine the land bandits of the Manjiadong in Jining" and could only personally solve a group of land bandits with the respect of the prince. Therefore, Fan Wencheng did not dare to talk about the issue of increasing troops to Haoge, but specifically mentioned the sincere prince Liu Yongxi.

But Dorgon didn't take this half-grown child seriously: "I have asked the Han official in Beijing that this sincere man is only seventeen years old. Can he still have three heads and six arms? No matter how strong he is, he is only a few thousand soldiers and horses, and he is also a soldier trained with tribute to the Qing Dynasty's annual tribute! "

When Dorgon talked about this problem, he was particularly angry. After entering the pass, the Qing Dynasty encountered a serious shortage of food and salary. The reason why Duoduo went south was to use the food and salary from Jiangnan to solve the imminent financial problems.

When he thought that the Southern Dynasty was finally willing to pay tribute to annual tribute, but was snatched away by this lawless little child as his food and salary, he really hated this little sincerity to his bones.

He said loudly: "It will take only three or five months to solve Li Zicheng. At that time, you will know how good the quality of this sincere prince is worth!"

The Manchu nobles next to them didn't take Liu Yongxi seriously: "Yes, this sincere prince is not worth a few futures. Although he did a good job in the Southern Dynasties, he was only a few thousand infantrymen, and he was not at the same level as the Manchu elite cavalry!"

"Yes, the generals of the Ming Dynasty are all the best, and their defeated generals are vulnerable!"

"I hope this sincere prince can be worth more than a few futures, otherwise the soldiers below will not be able to score enough!"

Although Chen Hongfan and Zuo Maodi have mentioned the name Liu Yongxi many times, in the eyes of Dorgon and all the Manchu Guizhou, Liu Yongxi is not much different from other Ming generals, and Chen Hongfan and Zuo Maodi cannot tell what Liu Yongxi is outstanding.

Dorgon also sent people to investigate the strength and background of Liu Yongxi's troops, which disappointed him. The so-called "Jingkou Town" and "Linhuai Town" were a new army that had only been in the army for a few months. Although there were horses, it was only three or four hundred cavalry at most, and its equipment was just the average Ming army level. If Liu Yongxi had not taken the banner of Gao Jie, he would have been eaten by Liu Liangzuo and Liu Zeqing now.

Therefore, in the eyes of Dorgon and all the Manchu nobles, although Liu Yongxi is not a native chicken and a dog, he is just a slightly stronger native chicken and a dog. Therefore, Dorgon said confidently: "Don't underestimate this sincere prince. I think a Niu Lu will definitely not be able to defeat this Liu Yongxi. At least two Niu Lu can be used, maybe three or four Niu Lu can be used together!"

Dorgon felt that no matter how much he valued Liu Yongxi, he could only pay attention to this level, and the Manchu nobles present felt that Haoge was extremely wise.

For Gao Jie and Shi Kefa, who also supported the Northern Expedition, the mobilization of the Qing army in front of him was a god-given opportunity, and this seemed to show that the national policy of "union of enemies and defeating enemies" was very feasible.

Although I don't know that Ajige's 80,000 troops will launch a siege from northern Shaanxi, the tens of thousands of troops of Duoduo are turning to Tongguan, which means that a war between Qingshun is close at hand. No matter who wins or loses, it seems that it will be a loss-making ending. Moreover, according to intelligence, the two sides are already launching a series of outpost battles.

In this case, under the name of "dividing the way into Qin" and "joining troops to suppress the invasion", it is the best choice to take over the Kaifeng area, but this is almost just a personal action of Shi Kefa and Gao Jie. Whether it is Liu Zeqing, Liu Liangzuo or Huang Degong, they always remain unmoved.

Unless Gao Jie can achieve unexpected and brilliant victory in this Northern Expedition, they will always remain in a state of keeping steady. The court has finally recovered and prepared to fight with Empress Zhang in Central Zhejiang. However, in addition to Empress Zhang in Central Zhejiang, King Lu of Hangzhou is also a headache for Emperor Hongguang.

Although Queen Zhang has been living in Jinhua for the past two months and has never been willing to discuss the issue of decree and establishment, many people have suggested that Queen Zhang should change to the establishment of Lu Wang, and there are also a group of enthusiastic people around Lu Wang. If Queen Zhang had not always gritted her teeth and refused to mention the decree and establishment, I am afraid that those who are interested would have already supported King Lu Wang in Hangzhou to supervise the country.

Under such circumstances, the court had no extra energy and resources to consider the issue of the Northern Expedition, and Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng did not want Gao Jie to succeed in this Northern Expedition. After all, in their eyes, this was just the Northern Expedition launched by Shi Kefa.

Although Shi Kefa has been squeezed out of the center and served as the governor of Jiangbei, he was always the Minister of War in Nanjing when King Fu ascended the throne. Now he is ranked and famous among the cabinet ministers higher than Ma Shiying. If this Northern Expedition can be accomplished, it is probably the day when Shi Kefa returns to Jinling as the chief minister.

Therefore, although they could not talk about the problem of dragging their backs, they could provide almost zero support. In the cold wind, Liu Yongxi finally used the gold, silver, silk and grain obtained from the previous "protecting the grain" and advanced north along the canal.

Although Liu Yongxi's Linhuai Town was only under the banner of Gao Jie and actually maintained independence, this time Liu Yongxi set a tone in advance and regarded himself as a member of Gao Jie's army. For this reason, he also traveled with 700 people from Xing Shengping's army, who were born in Gao Jie's army, and he also brought out the first battalion of Chen Yuan, who was also born in Gao Jie's army.

Chen Yuan's troops were actually Xing Shengping's old subordinates, but there were only thirty or forty people at the beginning and they had a quarrel with Xing Shengping all day long, so they were selected by Xing Shengping to exchange with Li Huaiqing's troops. Now Chen Yuan has developed into a camp with seven or eight hundred people, allowing Xing Shengping to go over and get in love with him.

With Xing Shengping and Chen Yuan, two old generals, Gao Jie, Liu Yongxi went north and there was no problem of being unable to solve it. Even if there were unfair problems, Li Xiangjun could be settled.

The camps in Liu Yongxi's army have always been the most welcome to Li Xiangjun and the troupe to work hard. Even if he couldn't understand Kunqu Opera, Pingtan was still very happy, let alone Li Xiangjun was so intoxicated that everyone was impressed by listening to it. If Li Xiangjun hadn't come forward this Northern Expedition, Linhuai Town would not have reached a consensus on sending troops so quickly.

The various battalions of Gao Jie's army also welcomed the party of the two armies organized by Li Xiangjun.
