Fan Wencheng, Hong Chengchou and Zu Dashou entered Chongzheng Hall, and Fan Wencheng, the leader, knelt down, and Hong Chengchou and Zu Dashou also knelt down. Judging from their expressions, Fan Wencheng was very natural, and there was no expression on Hong Chengchou and Zu Dashou's faces.

Dorgon looked at Fan Wencheng and others with a focused expression. He was paying attention to the expressions of the three people. Dodo and Ajige hardly looked at Fan Wencheng and others kneeling on the ground.

After coughing and reminding Dodo and Ajige, Dorgon spoke.

"Wencheng, Lord Hong, General Zu, invite you here today, mainly for the sake of Liaodong. I will listen to your suggestions."

"Wu Sangui, the general of the Shanhaiguan of Daming, sent us a letter and asked us for help. He was willing to surrender to our Qing Dynasty. However, the conditions he proposed were a bit strange. Our Eight Banners Army sent troops to help him defeat Li Zicheng and avenge Emperor Chongzhen. If Li Zicheng was completely defeated, Wu Sangui promised that our Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty would rule the Yellow River."

"I thought that Li Zicheng was able to capture the capital, and his strength was definitely extraordinary. My Eight Banners Army may suffer major losses, and it will take time to raise food and grass."

"The most critical point is that if Wu Sangui colluded with Li Zicheng in private and put our Qing Dynasty in an unfavorable situation, this battle would definitely be tragic and we would not be able to bear the losses."

Dorgon's words were direct, and the words contained a commanding tone. This was in sharp contrast to Huang Taiji's humility. In terms of closeness and distantness, Dorgon was also very clear. The one he trusted most among the Han people was Fan Wencheng.

Duoduo and Ajig did not speak, but just looked at the solemn Fan Wencheng and others.

Fan Wencheng had long been accustomed to all this. Yu Guang looked at Hong Chengchou and Zu Dashou and did not speak first. Generally speaking, the suggestions he gave were all summaries. Besides, according to his status among the Han people, he should not make suggestions first.

Hong Chengchou lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking, and he didn't mean to speak immediately. Zu Dashou naturally wouldn't speak first. More than two years ago, he was commissioned by Huang Taiji, and he wrote a letter to Wu Sangui to persuade him to surrender, but Wu Sangui ignored it. At that time, Zu Dashou basically did not get involved in the Liaodong incident.

The hall fell into a brief silence.

Dorgon frowned, while Dodo and Ajige wrote their dissatisfaction on their faces.

Fan Wencheng couldn't help it anymore. He knew very well that Dorgon, as the regent, had experienced a fierce game of power and had controlled the power of the Qing Dynasty. In addition, Dorgon fought on the battlefield all year round, and his personality was quite violent and could not tolerate such silent behavior. Not to mention Dodo and Ajige, their personalities were even more irritable than Dorgon.

After weighing the trade-offs for a while, Fan Wencheng finally spoke.

"Mr. Hong, let's talk first."

Hong Chengchou was stunned for a moment, and unconsciously turned his head to look at Fan Wencheng. Although Fan Wencheng was trusted by the powerful and powerful, he, Hong Chengchou, did not care much. Unexpectedly, in this Chongzheng Hall, Fan Wencheng actually asked him to speak.

"Mr. Hong, Wen Cheng's suggestions are good, so you can talk about them first."

Before Hong Chengchou could resist Fan Wencheng, Dorgon's voice came, and a feeling of humiliation that had never been seen before came to his heart, making Hong Chengchou feel a little dizzy.

People had to bow their heads under the roof. In the past few years, Hong Chengchou did nothing, had no power, had no trust from the powerful and powerful, and could not say any suffering.

After a brief thought, Hong Chengchou clasped his fists at Dorgon and others and spoke.

"Regent, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Since Wu Sangui is willing to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, it should be a good thing. The court can seize the opportunity. Once the Eight Banners Army breaks through Shanhaiguan, it will be unstoppable and will definitely be able to capture the entire Central Plains. At that time, Wu Sangui will not dare to have any other ideas and measures..."

Hong Chengchou, who surrendered to the Later Jin Dynasty, had long been incorporated into the Yellow Banners of the Han Eight Banners. He was a slave of the Manchus. However, Hong Chengchou has never been used to the identity of a slave, and he still has some pride in his heart.

Hong Chengchou's suggestions made Duoduo and Ajig widen their eyes, and they could clearly see a satisfied expression on their faces.

Dorgon snorted softly, Hong Chengchou could fool Duoduo and Ajige, but he could not fool him.

"Mr. Hong, you were the Minister of War of the Ming Dynasty and the General of Ji Liao. You commanded thousands of troops and thousands of horses. Wu Sangui, the General of Shanhaiguan of Daming, and were also your subordinate. What is Wu Sangui like this? Is it possible for Wu Sangui to collude with Li Zicheng? How effective is the army under Li Zicheng? What should I do after my Eight Banners Army enters the pass? You don't say a word and answer the questions I raised reluctantly. Do you feel wronged to surrender to my Qing Dynasty?"

Hong Chengchou's body trembled slightly, and he quickly clasped his fists and bowed to Dorgon.

"Sir, the slave dare not."

Dorgon snorted again, Dodo and Ajige's faces were slightly red, and his eyes were not very good when he looked at Hong Chengchou.

Finally, Hong Chengchou spoke again and his expression became solemn.

"The Regent, Prince, Prince, Prince, and Prince, the slave think that the Eight Banners Army is strong and crushing Li Zicheng, and the bandits and others can be eliminated in one battle. The court does not have to worry about Wu Sangui colluding with Li Zicheng. As long as the Eight Banners Army occupy the city of Ningyuan and the troops are heading towards Shanhaiguan, Wu Sangui loses his support and dares not make any other abnormal movements, and can only surrender steadily."

"If the Eight Banners Army goes to the expedition, the order of the Regent can be announced first. The purpose of the Eight Banners Army's expedition is to eliminate bandits, not to hurt innocent people, not to massacre people, not to burn houses, and not to rob money, and there is no crime in the places where they pass. During the expedition, if the prefectures and counties along the way open the city gate and surrender, they will give out the treasury and grain for the use of the army, the prefectures and prefectures and prefectures can all be promoted to the next level, and the city is intact. If they resist and disobey, when the city is broken, all the officials will be killed, and all the money and grain will be collected, and the people can still be preserved. Doing so will stabilize the people in the pass and benefit the Eight Banners Army's conquest."

"When siege, there are those in the city who assisted our Eight Banners Army, and rewarded them with exceptions to encourage more people to surrender."

"I think that if I do these things, the Eight Banners Army will be invincible, and the Central Plains will definitely be controlled by me."

"As for the Ming army, there is no fighting spirit, there is no need to worry. The slaves have concluded that wherever the Eight Banners Army passes, the Ming army will definitely surrender."

After Hong Chengchou finished speaking, not only Dorgon, but also Fan Wencheng's expression changed.

Hong Chengchou's suggestions are indeed very good. If they can be implemented, the problem of the lack of money and food in the Eight Banners Army will be solved. The greater advantage is that the court can stabilize the local area and gradually rule the world.

Dorgon nodded slightly and spoke.

"Wencheng, what do you think Mr. Hong's advice?"

After Fan Wencheng nodded vigorously, he clasped his fists and bowed to Dorgon.

"The Regent, Prince, Prince, Prince, Prince, and Prince, I think that Lord Hong's advice is very good. Siege the city as the best, and attack the heart as the best. When the Eight Banners Army set out to fight, they obey the orders issued by the Regent, treat the people well, and win over the officials. In this way, they will definitely win many cities without bloodshed. The lack of money and food can also be solved together. The city is stable and the people will feel at ease..."

Dorgon looked at Zu Dashou.

"General Zu, do you have any suggestions?"

Zu Dashou simply bowed his fists and bowed.

"Mr. Hong and Mr. Fan said very well. I didn't think so much. I was the one who fought. If the Regent had an order, I would be the first to rush forward and never frowned..."

Before Dorgon could speak, Duoduo spoke.

"Okay, very good, General Zu, you said it very well, soldiers should do this..."

Dorgon looked at Duoduo and sighed. He suddenly felt that in terms of power and schemes, the difference between the Manchus and the Han people was still too big. Many Manchus and nobles were straightforward and said whatever they thought and didn't know how to hide it. The Han people were different. They were deeply in their minds and said nothing, and they could hardly find any flaws.

The goal has been achieved, Dorgon waved at Fan Wencheng, Hong Chengchou and Zu Dashou.

"Okay, you guys go back first, we have important matters to discuss."

When he left Chongzheng Hall, Fan Wencheng was a little unwilling to accept it. Before he came, he thought of the matter in Liaodong and was ready. Unfortunately, Hong Chengchou spoke first and made good suggestions, which made him difficult to say.

Of course, Dorgon noticed Fan Wencheng's eyes, but he would not care. After becoming the regent of the Qing Dynasty, Dorgon's pattern and vision had long changed. He was also alert to every Han person in the court. If these Han people were united and formed a joint force, they would definitely pose a threat to the Manchus' powerful people. Therefore, it would be most beneficial to the Qing court to make the Han people in the court jealousy and confront each other.

After Fan Wencheng and others left Chongzheng Hall, Dorgon looked at Ajige and Duoduo and spoke.

"What do you think of Hong Chengchou as a person?"

Duoduo snorted and shook his head.

"Hmph, I'm full of little thoughts, and I don't know how to become the Minister of War of the Ming Dynasty. If Hong Chengchou were my slave, I would have been dealt with by me."

Ajige calmed down slightly and watched Dorgon speak.

"What's the point of asking this? I think Hong Chengchou is still capable of it, and his advice is good."

Dorgon narrowed his eyes.

"It is certain that I will send troops to Shanhaiguan. I plan to lead a large army to conquer. I originally planned to take Fan Wencheng. Now it seems that it is more appropriate to take Hong Chengchou. Hong Chengchou understands the situation inside the pass and once led a large army to conquer Li Zicheng. He knows Li Zicheng's combat effectiveness and knows Wu Sangui's situation. However, Hong Chengchou is a little careful. Maybe he has been staying at home for the past two years and is a little dissatisfied. He can still make some good suggestions when he hits him."

Azig nodded vigorously.

"The second brother has a good idea, and I fully support it. However, when the battle against Shanhaiguan is fought, I must lead troops to participate in the war..."

Before Ajig finished speaking, Dodo stood up suddenly.

"I must go to the battle against Shanhaiguan..."
