Chapter 903 Zhang Cheng, I want you to die without a burial place
In the center of Baimiaobao by the Daughter River, there is a two-deep courtyard, where Huang Taiji, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, stayed. A circle of wooden fences was erected around the courtyard, surrounded by yellow curtains.

Although dark clouds obscured the moonlight and starlight, against the backdrop of the lights, the circle of yellow veils still glowed with golden waves, showing the dignity of its owner to outsiders.

But at this moment, in the side hall next to the imperial palace, Huang Taiji, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, was reclining on the imperial couch. There was a heater not far from him, emitting steaming heat, making this small side hall extremely warm.

But even so, Huang Taiji's face was still pale and frighteningly pale. After hearing the words of Fan Wencheng, a scholar of the Academy of Internal Secretaries, his body moved a little, as if he wanted to get up but failed.

"Ugh!"

Huang Taiji sighed, and said lightly: "I have made up my mind on this matter, sir, there is no need to say any more."

After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes again, as if he was about to fall asleep. The two eunuchs, Geshha hurriedly approached in small steps, and helped Huang Taiji straighten the jade pillow with a gold silk face and a frame framed with fine nephrite, and then Help him cover the brocade quilt.

Fan Wencheng originally wanted to persuade him again, but it can be seen that Huang Taiji is like this, knowing that he has made up his mind, he didn't say any more, he bowed down and quietly exited the side hall.

He just came out of the side hall, when a gust of night wind was blowing, he couldn't help shivering, and said in his heart: "Oh, it looks like this winter is going to be tough again!"

…………

For several days in a row, the fast horses in Baimiaobao kept running in and out, some of them went to Jinzhou, some to Yizhou, and some went to Shengjing as far as the farthest, and they made several trips a day.

There are also more and more Tazi cavalry around Baimiaobao. They extend westward to the area of ​​Dafubao, and face Daxingbao in the south.

Daxing Fort, since the retreat of the Qing army, there has been no Ming army stationed here again. It is still the same as when it was burned down by the Qing army. Army brutality.

At this moment, the Qing Dynasty is also very tense. Due to the defeat of the army on the western front and the death of Prince Yu Duoduo on the battlefield, a series of power changes are also going on in full swing.

Azige, king of Doro Wuying County in the Qing Dynasty, was the biggest beneficiary of this round of power change.

Because Prince Yu Duoduo is the banner owner of Manchuria's inlaid white flag, although he died in battle, the position of banner owner cannot be vacant, and Huang Taiji has always wanted to suppress Dorgon and Duoduo brothers.

It's just that Dorgon has already noticed it. Not only has he always been cautious in his actions, but he often tells his younger brother Duoduo, so Huang Taiji has never had a chance.

Duoduo's death in battle is naturally a great loss for the Qing Dynasty, but for Huang Taiji, it is also a god-sent opportunity, which can hardly be regarded as joy in sorrow.

But even so, he didn't dare to break the rules of his ancestors. He must have died because of sin. He was fighting for the country and died on the battlefield, which was due to the Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, even though Huang Taiji was the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, he did not dare to break the ancestral law and deprive Duoduo's heirs of the right to inherit the titles of the banner owner of the Xiangbai Banner and Prince Yu.

That's why he came up with such a compromise method, that is, on the grounds that Duoduo's son was young, he was allowed to inherit the title of Prince Yu, and the owner of the white flag in Manchuria was appointed by his uncle Azig, king of Duoluowuying County. interim.

In this way, it is difficult for others to say more, even though Prince Rui Dorgon is definitely unwilling in his heart, he can't say more.

After all, Azige, Dorgon, and Duoduo are the brothers of the first-milk compatriots, so you can't favor one over the other, right?

Moreover, Azig, the king of Doro Wuying, was the banner owner of the Zhengbai Banner in Manchuria before, but he was replaced by Dorgon because of a mistake.

Therefore, it is reasonable for Huang Taiji to take this opportunity to temporarily replace Azige as the banner owner of the Bordered White Banner. In short, the banner owner of the Bordered White Banner is still passed down in Duduo's bloodline.

Of course, everyone is also very clear in their hearts what is going on with all this, but it is another matter to know what is going on and to have sufficient reasons to oppose it.

In addition, Huang Taiji personally led Manchurian Zhenghuang Banner Gushan Ezhen'a Mountain and died in the battle on Changling Mountain.

Tan Tai, the current second-class Merle Zhangjing of Zhenghuang Banner of Manchuria, was selected by Huang Taiji this time as the candidate to succeed Ah Shan, and succeed Gu Shan Ezhen of Zhenghuang Banner of Manchuria.

Shu Mulu Tan Tai, a Hunchun native of the Kulka Department, belongs to the Zhenghuang Banner of Manchuria. He is the younger brother of Yang Guli, the first-class minister of the Qing Dynasty. Later, because of his meritorious service, he promoted Baya Latiao Zhangjing to Guanbai.

Now he has the post of Gushan Ezhen, and he is in charge of the personnel and military affairs of a banner. It can be said that he has a high position and power, which also shows that the Qing Emperor Huang Taiji attaches great importance to and trusts him.

However, at this moment, the most painful one was Dorgon, Prince Rui of the Qing Dynasty. Duo Duo was the younger brother of his first-milk compatriot, but he was killed by Zhang Cheng in front of the two armies, and he couldn't even get his body back.

How can he not hate this?
Although, as early as the 11th year of Chongzhen, the commander of the right-wing army who fought with him against the Ming Dynasty, General Yang Wu and King Yuetuo of Keqin County, was beheaded by this Ming general Zhang Cheng in front of the battle.

Although he hated it very much at that time, he was secretly happy in his heart, because Yue Tuo was not only good at fighting and clear-headed, he was a rare and talented person in the Qing Dynasty, but he was Huang Taiji's best friend after all.

For Yu Guo, Yue Tuo's death was a great loss, but for Dorgon, it was an unexpected joy. After all, Huang Taiji lost a capable helper, so he had to use himself more, and he could take advantage of this opportunity to make a big splash. Fist, establish prestige.

But this time it is different, Duoduo is his own younger brother, a great help to him.

"Zhang Cheng, this king will definitely let you die without a place to bury you!"

With this in mind, Dorgon couldn't help gnashing his teeth and scolding Zhang Cheng, and even swore secretly that he would definitely capture Zhang Cheng in this life and tear him to pieces.

Furthermore, Huang Taiji set up a clothing sacrifice for Duoduo at Baimiaobao, but he ordered Dorgon to preside over the military affairs on the south bank of the daughter river, so that he would not return to Baimiaobao to pay homage to Duoduo.

With such an arrangement, how could Dorgon not have resentment, but he didn't dare to show it at all, instead he was more cautious in everything, so as not to make the slightest mistake and be caught by Huang Taiji.

Although the emperor ordered Azige, Prince of Doro Wuying, to temporarily replace his successor, Prince Yu Doni, as the banner owner of the Bordered White Banner. Although Dorgon was also reluctant about this, he could still reluctantly accept it.

After all, everyone is a compatriot, and blood is thicker than water. Even if his brother Azig has a deep prejudice against him today, he is his own brother after all, and he is always better than outsiders.

With the end of the internal personnel adjustment of the Qing Dynasty, the Ming and Qing armies returned to the situation of confrontation again.

The main battlefield is still the line between Shimen Mountain and Rufeng Mountain. However, under the changing situation of offense and defense, the Ming army has taken the initiative and turned to the offensive side. Regardless of its strength and terrain, it has the upper hand.

But even so, it was still impossible to defeat Dorgon's tens of thousands of Tartar bandit cavalry for a while, and even if Dorgon's troops were repelled, how to cross the Daughter River was also a question before the Ming army. problem.

The branch battlefield is the front line of Huangtu Ridge, where tens of thousands of Xuanda's elite soldiers are stationed here, and they are facing off against the Zhenglan Banner Tartars led by Hauge on the opposite side of the Xiaoling River.

The two sides faced each other across the river, and no one dared to easily cross the river to attack the other side, especially Prince Hauge of Qing Guosu, who was reprimanded by Huang Taiji for his failure to cross the river to attack the mouth of the river, but now he is guarding the river bank defense line, and dare not be reckless act.

Although Hauge's personality is a bit reckless and rough, he is not "two hundred and five"!
…………

The word "two hundred and five" has some origins, and it is said that it has some origins with Su Qin, a famous political strategist during the Warring States period.

According to legend, at the end of the Warring States Period, there was a famous historical figure named Su Qin who was a strategist.

He once used his three-inch tongue to persuade Qi, Chu, Yan, Zhao, Wei, Han and other six countries to unite and form an alliance to deal with their common enemy-Qin.

As a result, Su Qin was appreciated by the kings of the six countries, and in the end the six countries even made him the prime minister, known in history as "the prime minister of the six countries"!
But at that time, Su Qin was serving the country of Yan sincerely, but secretly had an affair with King Yan Yi's mother. After King Yan Yi knew about this, instead of blaming Su Qin, he treated him more generously.

This made Su Qin very terrified. He felt sorry for King Yanyi, and was very afraid that King Yanyi would suddenly rise up and kill himself. Finally, after much deliberation, he finally decided to go to Qin State to make a death plan in person, in order It became a matter of "Five Kingdoms Attacking Qi".

So Su Qin pretended to offend King Yanyi and fled to Qi State, where King Xuan of Qi immediately appointed him as guest minister.

After the death of King Qi Xuan, King Qi Min Tiandi succeeded to the throne, and Su Qin was still very favored. He used King Qi Min's trust in him to persuade King Min to bury King Xuan generously to show his filial piety to the world.

Then, he once again persuaded King Qi Min to build a large-scale construction project to show his success and annex the rich Song State. The purpose of all this was to cause Qi State to internally fight and then lose its external allies.

Finally, Qi was in trouble at home and abroad, and the coalition forces of Qin, Yan, Wei, Zhao, and South Korea attacked Qi, but even so, King Qi Min still trusted Su Qin very much, and almost obeyed.

But the doctors of Qi State can see this very clearly.

So, they secretly dispatched groups of assassins to assassinate Su Qin. Taking advantage of Su Qin's unpreparedness, the assassin stabbed him in the chest with a dagger, and Su Qin was seriously injured and died soon.

When King Qi Min heard the news, he was naturally very angry. He immediately ordered martial law throughout the city to arrest the murderer, but the assassin had already escaped without a trace, so where to catch him?

Since ancient times, all shrewd people will make calculations even when they die. Su Qin just thought of it and came up with a clever plan to "lead the snake out of the hole".

With his last breath, Su Qin said to King Qimin, "My lord, I am a dying man, and I have nothing else to ask for.

I only hope that the king can help me avenge me. Please allow me to offer my last plan for the king. I beg the king of Qi to take me to the downtown, behead me in front of everyone, and announce that I am a spy of the Yan people, and offer a reward A few, you can find the murderer who assassinated me. "

King Qi Min did as he said, he tore Su Qin in a car in the busy market, and posted a list in the city, claiming that he would offer a reward of one thousand gold to reward the person who assassinated Su Qin for him.

As soon as this list came out, someone really took the bait.

As soon as they came up, there were four people who wanted to receive the bounty, and all of them insisted that Su Qin was assassinated by himself, so the soldiers "invited" them all to King Qi Min.

When King Qi Min saw the four of them, he gritted his teeth with hatred.

However, he still pretended to be calm, and asked them in a serious manner: "Here is a reward of one thousand gold, but there are four of you, how do you divide it?"

The four people didn't know that they had been tricked at this time, so they immediately replied happily: "This is easy to handle, and each of us will share two hundred and fifty."

When King Qi Min heard this, they were still happily thinking about how to divide the bounty, and couldn't help being furious. He jumped up against the case and shouted: "Come on, push these four 'two hundred and five' to me and chop them up!"

These four people became innocent scapegoats in this way, and were killed by King Qi Min.

Since then, the word "two hundred and five" has been spread among the people, and it has gradually evolved into a synonym for fool, fool and recklessness, and it has been passed down to this day.

…………

It was a clear night, the moon was high and the stars were shining brightly.

Zhang Cheng and others stood at the highest point of Huangtu Ridge, looking down at the banks of the Xiaoling River. They could only see the lights above and below the ridge.

Looking further away, the meandering Xiaoling River is like a gap, separating the two places, while the opposite side is also lit up, although it is not as spectacular as our own side, but it still stretches for several miles.

As the distance gradually distanced, the lights and stars spread across the city and spread to the sky.

Wei Zhice couldn't help sighing: "If it wasn't for the war, what a bustling city it would be with such lights!"

"It's still a scholar who thinks more. What we think now is simple."

Zhang Guangda went on to say: "Damn, you have to find a way to fight over there, capture this boy Haoge alive, why don't you piss off the slave chief Hong Tai?"

Zhang Guodong shook his head when he heard the words, and said: "The Tartars are becoming more and more careful, it is really difficult to cross the river. Besides, the boats around here have long been captured by the Tartars, and most of the fishing boats at sea cannot walk in this river.

Even if there are still some small boats, they are not enough. If our army has few people to cross the river, it is no match for the Tartars! "

At this moment, Zhang Cheng turned around abruptly, his eyes were shining brightly, and he stared at Zhang Guangda until his heart trembled. , you...don't look at me like that...we...we're flustered..."

Zhang Cheng ignored him, and only asked, "Zhang Guangda, what did you just say?"

"We...we're flustered!" Zhang Guangda looked confused, not knowing which sentence he said wrong again.

"Not this sentence, your previous sentence?"
