In late May, Yalu River and Jiuliancheng.

Jiulian City is located in the north of the town and the Yalu River in the east. It has a dangerous terrain and is connected by nine cities of all sizes, so it is named.

In the early years, the Ming Dynasty built Zhenjiang City in Jiulian City and stationed its troops, becoming a military important military site on the border of southeastern Liaodong. It was also a necessary way to fight in Korea in all dynasties and a tribute road for envoys from both sides.

During the Wanli period, Japanese pirates repeatedly invaded Korea. The Ming army set out from Jiuliancheng several times, crossed the Yalu River, and repelled the Japanese pirates' invasion.

During the Guangxu period of the late Qing Dynasty, Japan invaded Korea again, and the Qing army entered North Korea was funny, and the same trip was Jiuliancheng.

After half a month of escape, the Qing army escorted Dorgon back to North Korea finally arrived in Jiuliancheng.

Wherever they went, the people were busy with their own affairs, and they were in peace and without any war atmosphere, because no one knew the situation of the war in Liaodong.

After nearly a year of war, the Qing army must have defeated it!

The Qing Dynasty never made the truth public. They did not believe in their "people", nor did they believe in their "soldiers". Once the news of defeat was leaked in advance, these troublemakers would not be allowed to make a fuss...

The nine cities were filled with camp tents, flags rustled in the night wind, lights and candles flashed in the camp, and the moonlight was bright.

A heavily guarded imperial camp in the middle stood tall. With the moonlight, a huge flag in front of the camp gate could be faintly seen fluttering in the wind.

Emperor Dorgon of the Qing Dynasty was lying on the couch, his chest was stuffy, his body was weak, and he was in great pain.

Concubine Zhuang Da Yuer helped Dorgon up with her left hand, held a bowl of medicine for healing the wound in her right hand, and said softly: "Your Majesty, I've taken the medicine."

Looking at Concubine Zhuang who was still as charming as before in her thirties, Dorgon smiled with relief, opened his mouth and slowly drank all the medicine, and became much more energetic again.

In the tent, not only him, but also a group of important officials from the Qing Dynasty who were eating dog food. Mr. Hong, who was in his early fifties, was among them. At this time, he lowered his head and stared at Concubine Zhuang who was feeding medicine, looking fascinated.

Fortunately, Dorgon's eyes were also staring at the woman in front of him, and he did not notice his abnormality.

After feeding the medicine, Dorgon briefly gave a few words and asked everyone to retreat.

In fact, he was unable to discuss matters in this way. He just summoned the ministers once every two days, so that he could tell everyone not to bother and return to Shengjing honestly.

Hong Chengchou was the last to withdraw from the imperial tent. Before leaving, he looked at Concubine Zhuang. Concubine Zhuang also happened to look at him. The two of them had a brief look at each other.

Hong Chengchou walked out of the imperial tent reluctantly, paced back and forth in front of the camp gate, analyzing the situation within the Qing Dynasty.

At this time, a Qing general with a sword hanging on his waist came to the gate of the camp. He walked over and said to the guardian: "I want to see the emperor!"

The speaker was Aljin, Dorgon's confidant general, who was in charge of the Manchurian Blue Banner.

Just as the soldiers guarding the camp were about to release him, Hong Chengchou suddenly said, "The emperor is unwell and he is resting."

Aljin didn't look at Hong Chengchou at all, and sneered: "Do you still need your consent when I see the emperor?"

Hong Chengchou stood outside the tent and said lightly: "I am a Grand Secretary of the Inner Court, a Minister of War, and the Emperor personally issued an order to assist in the management of the machinery. No one can restrain him. Do you want to resist the order?"

Arjin put his right hand on the sword and said coldly: "I'm going in!"

"Then you try?"

Hong Chengchou smiled lightly and waved his hand. Two teams of Han army flags carrying muskets flashed out next to the imperial camp. The leader was his old subordinate, Zuo Guangxian.

When Dorgon's donkey cart drifted, his Bayala camp was destroyed. Even the Bayala Banner, who was guarding the Imperial Battalion, died. He had to transfer the trusted Manchu soldiers and Han army flags to take turns to protect the Imperial Battalion. Hong Chengchou, who rescued the Imperial Battalion in time, naturally became a person Dorgon trusted.

Facing a row of black guns, Aljin snorted and stared at Hong Cheng and said, "Sir Hong, please wait for me. When I see the emperor, it depends on your luck!"

After saying that, he was so happy that he turned around and left.

Hong Chengchou stared at his back, and his eyes were filled with cold light.

When Hong Chengchou went to Xipingbao to collect food and grass, he arranged Concubine Zhuang in the rear. He had been flirting with Concubine Zhuang along the way and did something unspeakable. Aljin, who was accompanying him, accidentally discovered this situation.

He originally wanted to report to Dorgon, but as soon as he came back, he encountered his master's donkey carriage drifting and was seriously injured, and he had no chance to report it alone.

After all, if you report this kind of thing in public, where will the master's face be put?

After Aljin left, Zuo Guang pulled Hong Chengchou aside first and said anxiously: "Duke Hong, what should we do next?"

Hong Chengchou said calmly: "Don't panic, keep calm."

Zuo Guangxian lowered his voice and said, "How can I keep it stable if such a big thing happened? Mr. Hong, you are confused, you dare to touch Concubine Zhuang?"

Hong Chengchou waved his hand and said, "Stop talking."

"What's wrong?" Zuo Guangxian was a little puzzled.

Hong Chengchou closed his eyes slightly: "Do you know how uncomfortable it is to like other people's wives?"

“…”

On the second day, the sun had just risen and the sunlight spread on the horizon. The outside of Jiulian City was shaking the sky, and the Qing army in the city was in panic.

Just as the sound of hooves was deafening, a large number of cavalry of the Dragon Martial Army ran back and forth outside the city, raising the dust in the sky.

The general responsible for chasing was Qi Guangyang, Qi Jin's grandson. He was tall and handsome, with deep eyes, gorgeous armor, bright red cloak, and a large cloak and cloak fluttered in the wind. Behind him was a large area of ​​flags, and the same Ming knights who were as heavy as water.

Qi Guangyang controlled the reins with one hand, and the spear in his other hand seemed to pierce Yun Xiao, and he shouted suddenly: "The Ming army is mighty!"

"General is mighty!"

"The Ming army is mighty!"

"Thousands of victories! Thousands of victories! Thousands of victories!"

......

Hearing the shouts of the Ming army outside the city, the Qing army's imperial camp was in panic.

Dorgon was anxious to get angry, and his serious injury had not healed, and he coughed up blood. He immediately said to Hong Chengchou: "Grandmaster, it's not time to go and prepare for the carriage battle immediately, and cross the river and return to Shengjing immediately!"

Hong Chengchou said: "I have made arrangements, but..."

Dorgon frowned and said, "It's just what? There is no need to hide it, just say something!"

Hong Chengchou said: "If everyone retreated, the Ming army would definitely come out. I mean to leave a group of men and shields..."

Dorgon nodded and said, "What he said is reasonable, Jin Zidian, take your two flags of Korean soldiers to the shield back!"

Jin Zidian was frightened and looked up at Dorgon, looking reluctant. He ran all the way and was about to reach the doorstep. So what happened to Emperor Hu Dorgon?

At this time, Kim Zidian was afraid and angry outside. If he hadn't killed the King of Korea inside and outside, would you, Emperor Hu, easily take down North Korea? Now you have broken the bridge across the river and killed the donkey?

Hong Chengchou watched for a long time and said to Dorgon: "Emperor, I think that the two flags of Goryeo Banners are mostly afraid of war and are useless. Facing the cavalry of the Ming army, I am afraid that they will collapse without fighting, and even in desperation, they will hit the floating bridge and cause chaos."

Jin Zidian was able to be the power minister of North Korea, so his political awareness was naturally not weak. Hong Chengchou seemed to look down on the Korean soldiers on the surface, but in fact he wanted to help him.

Jin Zidian breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and secretly nodded gratefully to Hong Chengchou to show his friendship.

Dorgon coughed a few times, thinking that it made sense. These Korean soldiers were too naughty. What if they didn't know how to attack the imperial carriage and beat themselves up in the river and became a turtle?

"Where is Wu Sangui? Where are they?"

Hong Chengchou was so talented that he could never sell him. Naturally, the Hong soldiers under his command could not leave behind the shield. Dorgon was reluctant to leave the remaining Eight Banners, so he had to turn his attention to Wu Sangui's Guanning Army.

Hong Chengchou said: "I heard that Wu Sangui ran to Hetuala..."

"Why is this idiot running toward?" Dorgon said in a hatred.

Hong Chengchou's attention to Wu Sangui was once again raised. He seemed stupid, but in fact he was more skilled than anyone else. He led the Guanning army to Hetuala to save his strength and had reason to defend himself in the future.

Just when Dorgon was struggling, Hong Chengchou whispered: "Emperor, Gushan Ezhen Aljin has a strong old Eight Banner in his hand. Why not let them leave a shield behind..."

"Blue Flag..."

Dorgon hesitated and was a little reluctant. The Manchurian blue flag in Arjin's hand was the last Manchurian soldier with combat power beside him. If he broke it again, the Qing Dynasty would suffer great losses.

Hong Chengchou knew that if he wanted to obtain the real power of high officials in the Qing Dynasty, he had to rely on his power, such as Zhuang Concubine, and also eliminate those Manchus who held real power. Otherwise, no matter how outstanding he was, he would be a Manchus...

When it comes to internal strife in the court, Hong Chengchou is probably the eighteen streets of the Manchu man who can be left here. He had a new understanding of Dorgon's IQ after the Shanhaiguan War, and it was also from that time that he began to make arrangements.

Before the Jinzhou War, Hong Chengchou proposed to make the Manchu soldiers suffer a tough battle in order to consume the strength of the Eight Banners Manchu on a large scale, and also consume the elite of the Ming army...

The Ming army shouted and shouted loudly outside the city. Dorgon was so shocked that he coughed repeatedly and said hurriedly: "Let Aljin lead the red flag shield behind the imperial camp quickly cross the river..."

Although the Old Eight Banners are important, if I don’t run away now, will I still have a future?

Hong Chengchou supported him and said, "Your Majesty, let's go now. Can your body work?"

Dorgon waved his hand and said, "I am not seriously injured. It's just decided. Grand Secretary Hong, you can make arrangements immediately."
