Chapter 172 Demotion and Retention

"Prince, please listen to me slowly. Our spies in the capital have also heard news. Duoduo was seriously injured this time. If he wanted to continue his expedition to Jiangnan, he had to let Ajige lead his troops. Ajige is a rash man. Duoduo cannot deal with the Southern Ming army, and Ajige cannot deal with the Southern Ming army. At that time, the two brothers each gained a great defeat. Who else can the court rely on at that time?"

Oboi said in a low voice, this can be said to be very rebellious.

As a minister of the Qing Dynasty, we should hope that the Qing Dynasty will win, but we are in different camps. Only when there is a problem with Dorgon, will they have the opportunity to rise, otherwise they will be suppressed by Dorgon for the rest of their lives.

Originally, Haoge looked disgusted and didn't know what to do in the future. After hearing Oboi's words, this guy's eyes lit up. What Oboi said was definitely the truth!

But his eyes soon dimmed. This failure was definitely not a small-scale one. Will the Qing Dynasty still have the strength to stand up? Even if it is handed over to his hands, there will be no good environment as it is now.

"You are right, but if Ajige fails again, the power of the Qing Dynasty will be reduced by two. If you want to continue to compete with the Southern Ming court, it may be impossible. Maybe you may have to return to Liaodong. Wouldn't the efforts of the three generations be wasted?"

Brother Hao remembered the wish of his grandfather Nurhaci, and his father's efforts to enter the Central Plains. Even if he was not in the way of dealing with Dorgon, he had to say that Dorgon could enter the Central Plains, which also helped them the entire Qing Dynasty.

After arriving in the Central Plains, they knew what a good place and what a flower world was?

It is definitely many times better than the Heishan Hei River in Liaodong.

But if Ajige fails, the three powerful troops of the Qing Dynasty will lose two of them. It will be impossible to compete with the Southern Ming court at that time, and it means that all the efforts of these decades will be in vain.

"The prince has this idea, and it is really a righteous man, but the Han people also have a saying, "I would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail." Now the prince thinks there is no danger? Once Jiangnan is taken down and the entire court is settled, can Dorgon tolerate us?"

Some of Oboi's words made Haoge feel guilty just now disappear in an instant.

Although it was for the Qing Dynasty, the political struggle was absolutely extremely tragic. He regarded Dorgon as his uncle, but Dorgon did not necessarily regard himself as his nephew.

After Ajige's failure, the Qing Dynasty was left with the army in Haoge's hands.

At that time, Haoge could do whatever he wanted, let alone Dorgon. Even the current Emperor Shunzhi, Haoge could overthrow him if he wanted to overthrow.

What kind of emperor can a child be? In order to control the emperor, Dorgon specially elected Fulin to the throne. Including Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, he was not a good person.

At this moment, Prince Su clenched his fists, and he would eventually return all the grievances he suffered over the years.

In about half a month, the Qing court had almost adjusted, and all the troops in various places changed from offensive to defensive.

Gao Jie's army also came to Qufu City. The three entire regiments of full-scale troops set up camp here, which also made Zhu Cilang feel relieved.

After all, our army suffered heavy losses before. Even Li Guodong's elite troops would need to rest and recuperate well. Otherwise, if the spring is too tight, it will be easy to break the spring, and it will be less than worth the loss at that time.

Some people have also requested Zhu Cilang to approve the maintenance of the walls of Qufu City.

However, this was rejected by Zhu Cilang. Zhu Cilang originally wanted to use thermal weapons to conquer the world. It cost a lot of money to repair the city walls, and it was not able to resist the enemy's attack in the end.

Even the old artillery of this era can collapse the city wall, so there is no need to carry out large-scale repairs, just repair the city gates.

In the past half month, Zhu Ciyang's main purpose is to restore his troops to combat effectiveness. In the future, whether it is defense or offense, he must have a fist force.

After Li Guodong's army was supplemented, he had a total of 46,000 troops under his command.

Li Guodong thought Zhu Cilang would order him to continue north, but who knew that Zhu Cilang had issued an imperial edict, so he asked Li Guodong to lead 46,000 people to advance south, and then succeed Hu Qiang to guard the four towns in Jiangbei.

As for the gap left after Li Guodong left, Zhu Cilang handed over to Hu Qiang and Gao Jie.

Although Li Guodong felt uncomfortable, he also knew why Zhu Cixuan made such arrangements. This was purely for the unity of the entire army, and he could not give all the credit to yourself.

If you are in terms of qualifications, Li Guodong and Gao Jie are naturally older, but if you compare them with Hu Qiang, you may be worse than that. They were originally from the East Palace guards, so what would you compare with them?

This first battle has already made you show your face. No matter what, it is Hu Qiang's turn in the next game. After all, Li Guodong and Ye Yun both have a record of being able to show off.

What's more, Li Guodong's army suffered heavy losses on the battlefield, and many people were injured. If they were not in the rear, it might have a far-reaching impact on this army.

This guy Huang Degong has almost rested, and his body is covered with scars, which is considered to have saved his life.

However, Zhu Ciyang was also full of anger at him. He was desperate to fight on the battlefield. If he had known this, why didn’t he train his soldiers well?

So Zhu Cixuan's imperial edict was also delivered. Huang Degong took all his troops back to Nanjing and then gave him a new infantry brigade. When will Zhu Cixuan's requirements be met?

When will we be able to return to the battlefield?

Otherwise, I would have been training recruits in the south.

In fact, there is no need to say about him. After this battle, Huang Degong was extremely regretful and had already been holding on to his energy. So after the demotion, Huang Degong had no complaints and took his people first.

Even so, many people in the court thought that Huang Degong was treated well enough, with more than 20,000 people in three groups, and in the end, only 5,000 people were collected.

All the others were lost on the battlefield. If they were placed in Li Guodong's army, the casualties number would be unbelievable. Even if it was just based on this casualties number, Huang Degong would have been beheaded several times.
