"Wow, wow... Hauge! My good nephew, why did you die like this! Wuwu, it's all my fault, I didn't take good care of you... Late Emperor , I, Dorgon, am sorry for you...Hauge! Don't worry and go, I will take care of the emperor, and I will take care of your wife and children, don't worry..."
In the Forbidden City in Beijing, the sound of wailing came from the Wuying Palace. It was Prince Regent Dorgon, the uncle of the Qing Emperor, who was holding the little emperor Shunzhi and crying. He was crying so sadly!
The reason that made him cry so loudly was that Bahana and Obai (who survived and was still the best warrior in Manchuria) who retreated outside Fengyangfu City jointly signed a report reporting the "defeat of Qingliuxi" and The sad news that "Prince Su Hauge died without a complete body".
The reason why there were no intact corpses was because no one had seen Hauge's body, but some people saw Hauge leading dozens of Manchurian warriors to launch a desperate charge against the 3,000 cavalry led by Zhu Cixiang himself!
Ah, how brave! Dozens of people beat 3,000 people, and it is said that he killed no less than 300 Nikans. In the end, Hauge was covered in blood and fought all the way to Zhu Cihong, almost killing him.
But unexpectedly, Zhu Cixiang was actually very skilled in martial arts. When he saw Hauge, he danced with two swords. Wu Sanfu, who was holding an eight-foot-long snake spear, and Zhu Chunchen, who was wielding a ghost-headed sword, came to fight Hauge. The two sides fought for three hundred rounds. , and then beat the exhausted Hauge to death...
So Hauge died a heroic death, a heroic death, an honorable death, and worthy of a glorious burial - but unfortunately he couldn't find his body, and he didn't know what to bury him in?
After listening to the story of the heroic sacrifice of Brother Hauge, the little emperor Shunzhi was also extremely sad. That was his own eldest brother! An elder brother is like a father. If Hauge dies, it means that his father has died all over again. Can he not be sad?
Moreover, the young prince of the Zhu family can fight better than he thought! Although it took three to one fight to kill Hauge, brother Hauge was very skilled in martial arts and was one of the best warriors in Manchuria!
Such a powerful warrior actually had the young prince of the Zhu family beaten to death...
When Shunzhi didn't know what to do, his good uncle Dorgon had already recovered from his grief. He let go of Shunzhi, then wiped his tears and sat back in his chair, and then sighed: "Although King Su is brave, he is too reckless. Why did he enter the dangerous land of Huainan? How many times have I said this? Now, we must first pacify Huaibei, take Shandong, and settle Henan and Shaanxi, and then march into Xiangyang and drive the rogue bandits eastward. Even if the rogue bandits do not go eastward, we can build ships and set up a navy in Xiangyang, and then go down the river. Only then This is the only way to take Jiangnan... But he just didn't listen! Fortunately, you didn't support him as emperor back then, otherwise what would the Qing Dynasty do?"
"What the Prince Regent said is absolutely true!"
"The Qing Dynasty is lucky to have a regent!"
"The regent is wise..."
There was a chorus of praise in the main hall!
This time, Hauge brought the main force of Zhenglan Banner, Zhenghuang Banner, Xianghuang Banner, Zhenghong Banner and other "anti-Dorgon" Eight Banners aristocratic forces to the south. As a result, the clear stream turned into a bloody stream! The Han army and Bao Yi lost more than 6,000 people. The Eight Banners' losses in Manchuria were less, but almost 4,000 to 5,000...
After this battle, Hauge's own Zhenglan flag is considered disabled! The Han army he belonged to was almost wiped out. In addition, each Niulu lost more than a hundred soldiers on average, and the two yellow flags and the red flag also suffered a lot! The two white flags of the Dorgon brothers were unscathed.
The anti-Dorgon forces within the Eight Banners can be said to have suffered heavy losses!
Dorgon sighed: "We can no longer fight in Huainan, so we should retreat back to Henan first!
In addition, Zhenglan Banner has lost its flag owner, the Prince... What should we do? Zhenglan Banner cannot live without a good master. "
As soon as these words came out, everyone in Wuying Hall was stunned.
Why does Zhenglan Banner have no flag owner?
The leader of the Eight Banners is not an official, he is hereditary! Hauge is the flag master of the Zhenglan Banner. If he dies, his legitimate son Fu Shou should inherit the position of the flag master of the Zhenglan Banner... If there is no statement about the flag master, where does it come from?
"Prince Regent, don't you still have a rich ribbon?" Prince Zheng Jierhalang reminded in a low voice.
"That's right!" Dorgon said with a smile, "How old is Fu Shou this year?"
"Three years old..."
Fu Shou is Hauge's fourth son. He was born eight years ago in Chongde. He is only two years old this year.
"Can three-year-olds lead the warriors of Zhenglan Banner into battle?" Dorgon asked in a nonchalant manner.
"I can't..." Jierhalang said, "But there is Gushan Ezhen from Zhenglan Banner!"
"Can Gu Shan'e really replace the flag owner Prince?" Dorgon asked again.
"This..." Jierhalang shook his head, "No."
Of course, Gushan Ezhen can act in place of the flag owner prince, but Jierhalang himself is the flag owner prince. Moreover, in the current Qing Dynasty, the young ruler comes to the court and the banner leaders rule together. The three brothers Dorgon, Duduo and Azig held two white flags, Jierhalang held a blue flag, Daishan's family held two red flags, and Hauge held a true blue flag. These banner-owning princes, plus the "eight-eight-point princes" (also known as small banner owners) who have Niulu but are not banner owners, are the current authorities in the Qing Dynasty.
As for Gushan Ezhen, who represents the imperial power, because the emperor is still young, he is suppressed by the banner princes and the princes.
How could Jierharang be willing to let Gushan Ezhen replace the prince, the flag owner? So when Dorgon told him, he changed his mind.
"The regent is still considerate," Jierhalang said after considering, "but who can preside over the situation of the Zhenglan Banner? How about letting Prince Duoluo Raoyu be the flag owner?"
The prince of Duoluo Raoyu is Dorgon's seventh brother Abatai. He is also sitting in the Wuying Palace, participating in the meeting of the political kings. He is the small banner leader of the Zhenglan Banner. He is very close to his fourteenth brother Dorgon and knows what Dorgon is thinking. He quickly waved his hands and said: "I can't do it, I can't be the leader of the flag... Moreover, so many people have died in Zhenglan Banner, and their vitality has been damaged. How can we rectify it? I think the only way to rectify Zhenglan Banner is to use the late Emperor to rectify it." The old way of raising a flag is to find a flag with strong soldiers and horses and mix it with the Zhenglan flag."
Dorgon nodded and continued to ask: "Old Qi, tell me, which flag can be mixed with the Zhenglan Flag?"
"Zhengbai Banner!" Abate said, "Now it's up to the Zhengbai Banner and the Xiangbai Banner to have strong soldiers and horses!"
This is to make the three Dorgon brothers swallow the Zhengbai flag!
Jilhalang looked at Dorgon, and then at Dabeile Daishan, who was invited to attend the meeting of political kings today - he came here on behalf of Zhenghongqi and Xianghongqi. But now I seem to have fallen asleep due to lack of energy...
What a fox! Jirharang cursed, yawned, and suddenly became depressed.
"It's also a way," Dorgon said, "Let's mix the Zhengbai flag, Xiangbai flag and Zhenglan flag... After that, the owner of the Zhenglan flag should be given to Lao Fifteen! I'll be the one to take the Zhengbai flag. , the owner of the white flag should be given to Azig. Is this okay?"
"This..." Jierhalang hesitated without nodding - what are his benefits?
Dorgon breathed out, "The situation in Henan is critical, and I must personally take action... I have ordered General Yinnan to march to the south. While I am away from Beijing, King Zheng will be responsible for everything."
Jierhalang said hurriedly: "If the regent goes to Henan to personally preside over the rectification of the Zhenglan Banner, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. It is best for the leader of the Zhenglan Banner to be given to the King of Yu. The King of Yu is very intelligent and can definitely lead the Zhenglan Banner well." of."
"Lao Qi," Dorgon said to Abatai again, "come south with me... When Henan is calmer, you can stay and guard it."
"Okay, I'll go with Old Fourteen," Abate said. "Whether Old Fifteen is in charge of Zhenglan Banner, think about it, only he can reorganize Zhenglan Banner."
"Da Beile, Da Beile!" Dorgon shouted at Daishan again.
"Ah..." Daishan responded, and then burst into tears, "Oh, Hauge, you died so miserably, you died so miserably..." After crying for a while, The old man suddenly stopped again and looked at the regent, "Old Fourteen, are you done?"
"It's done." Dorgon nodded.
"Oh, when will it be sent to Hauge?"
"When I come back from Henan," Dorgon said, "I will give him a grand burial!"
