When the bad news from Shandong was sent to Beijing in waves by Tang Ma Chuan from the Qing Dynasty, something happened in Beijing... It was very likely that it would become the capital of the Yuan Dynasty. Got it!
Because since the winter of the 10th year of Shunzhi, countless Mongolians have crossed the Yanshan Mountains and came to Beijing. Most of them set up yurts in the wilderness outside Beijing, and drove their cattle and sheep everywhere to find food. For this matter, they often had conflicts with Han farmers outside Beijing - not all Han farmers. Many of the tenants of the bannermen's masters were Ban Jun who guarded Beijing and their family members. Who would be willing to pay for the Mongols? What Mengman family? There are still Manchu and Han families here in Beijing!
So armed fights happen almost every day!
It has tempered the fighting spirit of the soldiers of the Beijing squadron...
There are also some Mongolians who have entered Beijing and moved into the houses that were vacated due to the large-scale migration of banner people!
However, this house is basically empty, and all the things inside have been moved back to the outside of the customs by Duduo's soldiers-these shabby household items would be garbage in the southeast, but they are placed outside the Great Customs where the handicraft industry is extremely underdeveloped. , it’s still worth a lot of money…it’s not even about the money, it’s about the lack of it! There is no shortage of furs, grains, pearls, ginseng, and other things that can be found in the mountains and forests outside the pass.
But apart from these, everything else is lacking...
Because most of the houses are empty, most of the Mongolian nobles who come to the city still set up a yurt in the yard and continue to live there.
Because of their arrival, the style of the streets in Beijing has changed. The empty streets have finally gained some popularity, but the only people coming and going are Mongolians wearing Mongolian leather robes and carrying scimitars at their waists.
The Qing Dynasty is about to become the Yuan Dynasty!
When Guang Shiheng, who had just returned from the Rakshasa Kingdom, first entered the city, he thought he was about to become a minister... Later, when he met Luo Yangxing, he found out that this was brought by Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty from the Hetao Grassland. "Master" is back.
It cannot be offended!
"Your Majesty... Great Khan, this is the letter of credence given to you by the Tsar of the Rakshasa Kingdom, as well as a "Tripartite No-War Treaty"..."
Guang Shiheng met Shunzhi Khan dressed as a Mongolian in a yurt outside Fengtian Gate!
Next to the Great Khan was a middle-aged monk with fine features, and a color-eyed official wearing Mongolian clothes... It looked like he was in the Yuan Dynasty!
So Guang Siheng simply changed his name to Dahan.
"Don't call me Great Khan," Shunzhi corrected, "call me Emperor... You are a bannerman, not a Mongolian."
"This slave obeys your orders."
Guang Shiheng has been a slave for a long time... He is the slave of the Qing Dynasty with the green flag!
Shunzhi waved to Wu Liangfu beside him, who immediately went over to take the tsar's credentials and the text of the "Tripartite No-War Treaty" and presented them to Shunzhi.
Shunzhi Khan took out the "Three-Party No-War Pact" and opened it, feeling a little dizzy at the first glance.
"By the grace of Heavenly Father, I, the Caesar and the Dufu Emperor of the Rakshasa Kingdom, Moscow, Vladimir and Novgorod... What are these? Why are the words so vulgar? ? They’re all written like a dog! Guang Shiheng, aren’t you a Jinshi? How come you can’t write after a trip to the Rakshasa Kingdom?”
"Start the Great Khan," Guang Shiheng explained immediately, "What you just read out was not written by a slave, but was written by the Ming Dynasty's envoy Choros Chuhu Erwu. The parties to this tripartite treaty are: The Rakshasa Kingdom, the Great Mongol Kingdom and the Ming Dynasty were written in three different languages. They all have the same meaning. The slave represents the Great Mongolia, so he is responsible for the Mongolian writing part... "
"Do you still understand Mongolian?" Shunzhi asked while looking for Mongolian characters, and he really found them.
But... I still can't quite understand it.
"What do you mean, confused?" Shunzhi asked.
"This, this..." Guang Shiheng stammered, "It means that our three countries, Mongolia, Rakshasa and Ming, must maintain peace and not attack each other."
"Nonsense!" Shunzhi slapped the table, "We've already started fighting! Fighting happens every day on the Hetao grassland. In the Central Plains, the Nan bandits have also surrounded Dezhou, Liaocheng, and Anping, and they have almost occupied the territory of Jibei, Dongchang, and West Yanzhou. Got it!"
"The sweat calms down the anger, the sweat calms down the anger..."
"Call the Emperor!"
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Your Majesty, please listen to my explanation," Guang Shiheng said. "This Choros Chuhu'erwu Bashi can only represent the Beiting Protector of the Ming Dynasty, not the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, so this treaty can only guarantee The Beiting Army will not fight with us."
"Beiting?"
"It's the Jungar Department..."
"You bastard!" Shunzhi was furious, "How can we sign this kind of treaty? I have to personally conquer Zhungeer!"
"Your Majesty," Guang Shiheng had no choice but to say, "This is a draft treaty. Your Majesty may not approve it..."
"No! No! Go away..." Shunzhi shouted.
This treaty is out of date!
Now Shunzhi has brought tens of thousands of Mongolians to the Central Plains, so he must emphasize his identity as the Great Khan, and Sengge's "betrayal" is his contempt for the authority of the Mongolian Great Khan. Of course, he must show an attitude of attacking him sooner or later.
After scolding Guang Shiheng and running away, Shunzhi summoned Sony, Suk Saha and Wu Keshan to the yurt.
It wasn't because of the news Guang Shiheng brought back - Shunzhi didn't have time to deal with this matter now, the war in the south was imminent.
Seeing Sony and others coming in to kowtow to him, Shunzhi spoke first before they could finish their greetings.
"What did the Emperor's uncle say?"
"Your Majesty," Sony quickly held an envelope with both hands, "The Emperor's uncle's letter has just arrived. Please read it."
Shunzhi hurriedly asked Wu Liangfu to bring the letter, and then took out the letter paper and handed it to him to read. After looking at it for a few times, he snorted: "They said it was a feint attack... If Dezhou falls, Cangzhou will be next, and then Tianjin Guard! Tianjin Guard is only over 360 miles away from Texas! Tianjin Guard blocks Haikou. If it is lost, the Confederate Army can take the sea route. Will Beijing be able to defend it then?"
Tianjin Wei's Haikou has been a serious concern of the Qing Dynasty since Dorgon's reign. So they also thought of many ways to block it. Now it is difficult for the Ming Dynasty to land from Haikou.
However, the Ming army could take Tianjin directly after capturing Dezhou, and after capturing the Tianjin Wei City Pool, they could then clear the fortresses along the Wei River (Hai River) and open up Tianjin Wei Haikou.
By then, Shunzhi will be finished...
"But the Emperor's uncle determined that the Ming army must go to the camps on both sides of the Yellow River," Suk Saha said. He had already read the letter and naturally knew the content. "He asked us to hold on for a while...wait. The Ming army will attack the Yellow River camp before sending out troops. As for the siege of Dezhou, ignore it."
While he was talking, the eunuch's announcement voice suddenly came from outside: "Banbul is kind enough to see you."
Now the six bachelors and six ministers of the imperial guards of the Qing Dynasty gathered together to form a council of kings and ministers, responsible for executing the orders of Emperor Shunzhi and taking charge of daily affairs.
The meeting place is in the Liuke Corridor opposite Wuying Hall, which is also the center of the Qing Dynasty. There is always at least one internal minister or bachelor on duty there. The person on duty now is Ban Bulshan.
He has come to the yurt himself now, of course it is an emergency.
"Your Majesty, Hejian Mansion reports..."
Before Ban Bulshan could finish his words, Shunzhi already spoke with a trembling voice: "What? Did the Southern Army invade Hejian Mansion?"
"No, it's not," Banbulshan shook his head, "It's the Southern Army announcing that they will be free of food for three years in various places in Jibei Prefecture..."
"Three years of free food?" Shunzhi was stunned, "Isn't this Li Zicheng's trick? How could it be used in the Ming Dynasty?"
"Your Majesty," Sony said, "The Ming Dynasty must want to use this trick to confuse the people of Jibei and even Hejian!"
"Isn't it just four liters of flour per acre?" Shunzhi was a little confused, "Isn't that what I can afford?"
"It's long since exceeded this number," Sony shook his head. "The actual amount of flour collected per acre is probably more than one and a half bushels! And we still have to collect cloth, one piece per household, and collect fodder. Collecting corvee..."
