It turns out that Bumbutai was annoyed because Emperor Kangxi urgently mobilized the Burni entrance to reinforce Henan!
She is an old person who has experienced the fierce battles between Hou Jin and Chahar. Moreover, she is a Mongolian, and her maiden name is Bo'er Jijin. She is very aware of the prestige of the central Chahar households among the Mongols.
Although there is only a broken Chahar Zhasak flag left in Burni, if he is not careful, he will turn the entire grassland upside down.
What did Dayan Khan have back then? He has nothing but the direct bloodline of the Golden Family. Wasn't he supported by his adoptive mother and wife Manduhai and became the leader of Mongolia's resurgence?
Now Burni is much stronger than Dayan Khan back then... only one Manduhai is missing!
In addition, the Mongols have always been very convinced of leaders who can win battles. If Burni could stab Kangxi on the battlefield in Henan, he would immediately become the leader of the entire Monan Mongolia when he returns to the Mongolian grasslands!
The Monan Mongolia and the Moxi Oirat Mongols have always been the most capable of fighting among the four Mongols in the southeast, northwest and northwest.
In the past many years, any strong man who rose up in Monan would definitely be able to defeat Mobei, subdue the host, and become a new generation of Mongolian leaders.
So the only thing left for Burni to rise to prominence is a significant victory or a good wife!
"Royal grandmother," Chang Ning also knew that the city of Beijing was a little empty now, but he still comforted Bumu Butai and said, "My grandson still has 6,000 elite soldiers from the third patrol battalion.
Moreover, Wang Yuxi, the commander-in-chief of Tianjin, has led 3,000 troops to Beijing... With his troops, there are now a total of 9,000 green battalion elite soldiers in Beijing.
In addition, the city wall of Beijing cannot be broken through by Burni's Mongolian cavalry!
So the Imperial Grandmother can rest assured that the city of Beijing is safe! "
Kangxi dared to open the entrance to Burni, so he naturally made corresponding arrangements.
One of his arrangements was to order Chang Ning to take over the Third Patrol Battalion and serve as the Admiral of the Nine Gates, taking charge of Beijing's city defense.
At the same time, Kangxi also asked Wang Yuxi, the commander-in-chief of Tianjin, to lead three thousand troops to Beijing, and he also served under Chang Ning.
Wang Yuxi's 3,000 green battalion troops were originally to defend Haikou, Tianjin. Kangxi was afraid that Zhu Heji's army would go north by sea, so he never dared to withdraw the troops guarding Haikou.
But now Tianjin Haikou is frozen for dozens of miles, making it impossible to land. This green battalion guarding Haikou can be transferred to Beijing.
The defense of Haikou relies on forts, so these three thousand green battalions cannot fight in the field. There is absolutely no problem in firing artillery to defend the city.
With them guarding Beijing, it was impossible for Burni's Mongolian soldiers to break through the city. At most, they would just plunder a handful outside Beijing... Kangxi had no choice but to bear this risk.
As for Burni's arrival in Henan, Kangxi had already made arrangements.
Chang Ning then said to Bumbutai: "Brother Huang has already found a way to defeat Wu Yingqi's troops... By the time Burni's army arrives at the Henan front line, Wu Yingqi will probably be trapped in a tight siege. How could Burni be able to do so by then? To take chestnuts from the fire for the besieged Wu Yingqi? Moreover, the emperor will also arrange a Hongmen Banquet to control Burni. In short, there will be no accidents. "
Bumbutai sighed and said: "The emperor is too confident. He always thinks that he is better than everyone else and there will be no accidents... But since the chaos in Guangdong, how many accidents have happened? He Are you sure you’re here?”
When Bumbutai said this, her dowry maid, Aunt Sumala, who was already in her early sixties this year, walked in. She gave a blessing to Bumbutai first, and then said with a smile: "Queen Mother, Chahar The palace just sent someone to hand over a note, saying that Chahar Prince Burni and Taiji Luobuzang want to come to the city to see their Amma, and also want to come to Cining Palace to pay their respects to you."
The wife of the previous Prince of Chahar, Abu Nai, who was also the biological mother of Burni and Luobuzang, Makata, was born to Empress Zhezhe of Xiaoduanwen, the Zheng family of Huangtaiji. She was the legitimate daughter! Of course she has a distinguished status and has a title in Beijing. Her title is now the Chahar Palace.
And with the relationship of Makata, Burni and Luobuzang naturally had to visit Bumbutai after entering Beijing.
Chang Ning smiled and said to Bumubutai: "Royal Grandmother, since they are willing to enter the city, they should have no objections."
Bumbutai snorted: "It's better to be careful..."
...
Emperor Kangxi's current residence is Kaifeng, the capital of Henan Province!
And he is also preparing to start a decisive battle with Wu Yingqi's Northern Expedition army in Kaifeng Mansion!
The Eight Banners' new army, numbering more than 150,000 in thirty solid mountains, has braved the severe cold of the twelfth lunar month of the thirteenth year of Kangxi's reign and the first month of the fourteenth year of Kangxi's reign and quickly moved closer to Kaifeng Mansion.
At the same time, the 100,000 Wu and Zhou Northern Expeditionary Forces led by Wu Yingqi were advancing at a high speed of fifty to sixty miles per day, passing through the frozen plains and heading towards Kaifeng Fucheng.
There is no need to attack cities or occupy any land along the way. In addition to collecting supplies from the passing cities, we just move forward with our heads covered.
The idea seems to be that I want to rush to Beijing in one go!
And this style of play was indeed what gave Kangxi the biggest headache.
Because it is difficult to defeat the 100,000 Wu and Zhou armies advancing in a group... If you don't count the Mongols whose combat effectiveness is very unreliable, Emperor Kangxi can now devote up to 150,000 new troops for field battles.
Although 150,000 is larger than 100,000, Wu Zhou's 100,000 army is a victorious army, while Kangxi's 150,000 army is a defeated army that has suffered consecutive defeats... The actual combat effectiveness of the two is probably almost the same!
Therefore, Wu Yingqi's method of rushing together as a group gave Emperor Kangxi a very headache.
But no matter how hard the headache is, the decisive battle still has to be fought.
Kaifeng Mansion was Kangxi's "bottom line". He could not let the Wu and Zhou armies cross the Yellow River. Because the "Yellow River" is so iconic, once the Wu and Zhou armies cross the Yellow River, it means that the war has reached the gate of Beijing!
Many local officials and powerful officials in the Qing Dynasty who are still waiting and watching will choose to turn to Wu Sangui.
There will be no need to fight at that time, the Central Plains will have to change its banner, and Kangxi will be considered lucky if he can keep a few "points".
Therefore, the decisive battle in Kaifeng Mansion became Kangxi's only choice!
And his imperial uncle Yue Le actually proposed a plan to fight a decisive battle in Kaifeng Mansion a few days ago!
It was given to him quietly, and Kangxi was also told to keep it secret, even from confidants like Wang Fuchen and Zhou Peigong... It's not that Yue Le is worried about these two minions, but that he must be on guard against others. .
Moreover, Wang Fuchen has to be of great use in the plan proposed by Yue Le!
Wang Fuchen, who still didn't know that he was about to be used in a big way, was hurriedly walking into Kangxi's Nan Study in Kaifeng. After his death, Wang Fuchen's ministers in the south study room, the ministers in charge of political affairs, and the ministers leading the bodyguard were all fucked. However, he was given the title of General Zhenwu as a consolation, and Wang Fuchen was also appointed as the admiral of Henan, responsible for the defense of Kaifeng Mansion.
"My slave, Wang Fuchen, respectfully wishes His Majesty's blessing!"
Wang Fuchen, who walked into the South Study Room, did not show any dissatisfaction or frustration because of "falling out of favor". He still respectfully bowed to Kangxi three times and knelt down nine times.
"Wang Fuchen," Kangxi waited for Wang Fuchen to kowtow before asking slowly, "I have an errand that is related to the rise and fall of the Qing Dynasty. I want to leave it to you. Can you do it for me?"
"Yes! It must be possible! If it doesn't work out, I will come to see you!"
Kangxi shook his head, "This job is extremely dangerous. If you don't do it right, you and I will have to meet again in the next life!"
See you in the next life? Wang Fuchen thought to himself, "What kind of job is it? So dangerous? It can't be the same as Sun Sike, right?"
"Wang Fuchen," Kangxi said word by word, "I want you to surrender to Wu Sangui!"
"Huh?" Wang Fuchen was surprised, startled at the same time, and his heart started beating violently. Could it be that Emperor Kangxi discovered something and is now using words to test it?
Without waiting for Wang Fuchen's answer, Kangxi said again: "Wang Fuchen, I want you to pretend to surrender to Wu Yingqi! Then lead him and his men to Zhuxian Town!"
