Chapter 133 Difficult to choose

Boluo's concerns are not unreasonable. The Qing Dynasty was indeed undercurrents, and his father, Regent Dorgon, did not have a good life.

Speaking of the current political territory of the Qing Dynasty, we have to start with Emperor Shunzhi Fulin ascending the throne.

On the night of the ninth day of the eighth month of the eighth year of Chongde in the Qing Dynasty, Huang Taiji died suddenly.

The country cannot be without a king for a day. If the emperor dies, a new king will naturally ascend the throne. Unfortunately, Huang Taiji died in a hurry, and did not choose a crown prince, nor did he leave a will to pass the throne.

So, a big show about the throne began.

There were two people who had the hope of winning the throne at that time.

One is Huang Taiji's eldest son, Prince Su Haoge, and the other is Prince Rui Dorgon.

Prince Su Haoge was the head of the Zhenglan Banner, and the Zhenghuang and Yinghuang Banners, led by Huang Taiji, were headed by Sony and Oboi, and firmly supported Haoge's ascension to the throne.

Prince Rui Dorgon owned the Zhengbai and the Inlaid White Banners, and his brothers Ying Prince Ajige and Yu Prince Duoduo supported him.

In addition to the general balance of military strength, Haoge's advantage lies in the fact that he is Huang Taiji's son, with a strong root; while Dorgon's advantage lies in the fact that he has always helped Huang Taiji to govern the government, and has a high prestige in the court and many supporters.

In terms of choosing heirs, the Manchus did not have as many rules as Han people at the beginning, such as "establishing legitimate", "establishing chief", and "establishing virtuous", and there was no "brothers and brothers to succeed", but Nurhaci once had a will, stipulating that the inheritance of the throne must be discussed and decided by noble ministers.

Therefore, after the funeral of Huang Taiji, the seven people with the most say at that time, Prince Li Daishan, Prince Zheng Jiergalang, Prince Rui Dorgon, Prince Su Haoge, Prince Ying Ajige, Prince Yu Duoduo, Prince Ying Alida, Prince Ying Alida, and Minister Ying Alida, discussed with the Eight Banners ministers.

Haoge and Dorgon both felt that they should inherit the throne, and the reasons were very sufficient. Daishan, who was in charge of the Zhenghong Banner and the Inlaid Red Banner, favored Haoge, while Jirgalang, the lord of the Inlaid Blue Banner, favored Dorgon.

When the two were arguing, Sony and Oboi entered the sword and said to the princes and ministers here: "We eat the late emperor's and wear the late emperor's sons, and we would rather die from the late emperor's sons to be the emperor!" The meaning of their words was actually to threaten Dorgon. As long as you become the emperor, we will use force.

In this case, Jirgalang came up with an idea, that Fulin, who was the prince and not Haoge, ascended the throne.

This proposal was quickly recognized by everyone. Haoge was not easy to object. After all, it was his own brother who became the emperor and did not let Dorgon take the throne away. Dorgon was not easy to object. The reason was that Dorgon and Zhuang Concubine Buerbutai had been in love since childhood. How could he object to her son ascended the throne?

Besides, Fulin is only six years old and is regent by himself. Isn’t he the same as being an emperor?

He was in power and had a good explanation to Boulbutai, which was reasonable in all aspects.

So, the lucky Fulin really "happiness came" and miraculously became the emperor.

Fulin ascended the throne in Shenyang in the 17th year of Chongzhen and changed the yor to Shunzhi.

Dorgon was named the regent of his uncle and governed with Prince Zheng Jirgalang.

The 17th year of Chongzhen was a great turbulent era. In this year, Li Zicheng entered Beijing, and Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself in Coal Mountain. The Ming Dynasty, which had been in power for 276 years, was actually considered a country of destruction.

In the same year, Emperor Shun Han ascended the throne, Dorgon led his army to Beijing, drove Li Zicheng away, and moved the capital here. From then on, the Qing Dynasty was considered to have been outside the pass and officially entered the pass.

Due to his outstanding contributions, Dorgon gradually upgraded from his original "Uncle Regent" to the point of being "Uncle Uncle Regent", first "Uncle Uncle Regent", and then simply removed the word "Uncle Uncle Regent" and changed it to "Uncle Father Regent".

His brother Duoduo, his brother, naturally rose from Prince Yu to Prince Yu.

...

The news of Ajige's defeat reached Duoduo's palace in Nanzhili. Duoduo was shocked, as if he had heard a huge joke.

Five thousand Manchu elites were wiped out in one day. Not to mention the weak Yongli Dynasty, even the Guanning Army, which was the most capable of fighting in the Ming Dynasty, could not do it. You must know that it was not the Han army flag, but the authentic Manchu army flag, its own Zhengbai flag.

After repeatedly confirming that this was the truth, Duoduo felt distressed at first, and then worried.

After the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, it advanced south in two directions.

The West Road was the two yellow flags and Zhenglan flags led by Haoge, chasing Li Zicheng's Dashun army, from Shanxi, Shaanxi, Henan, and all the way to Hubei. Not only did Li Zicheng kill his men, but also crippled Zhang Xianzhong's Daxiong Army. Only Sun Kewang, Li Dingguo, Liu Wenxiu, and Ainengqi's four remaining troops were defeated and entered Guizhou and Yunnan. It can be said that they will win every battle, and Haoge's prestige is increasing day by day.

The east road was led by Duoduo and the two flags of Zhengbai, and went south to eliminate the Hongguang regime of the Southern Ming Dynasty and occupied the city of Nanzhili, which was a symbolic city. Then he led his troops south to occupy Zhejiang and Fujian, and destroyed Emperor Longwu Zhu Youjian. Before Zhu Youlang became emperor, everything went smoothly. In terms of achievements, it was not worse than Haoge.

However, since Zhu Youlang became emperor, the war began to become unsuccessful. First, Li Chengdong defeated Guangzhou and then surrendered. Then Li Chengdong led his army to counterattack and lost all the Fujian province that the Qing army had just captured.

Duoduo deeply reflected on the surrender of Li Chengdong and finally summarized one thing: The Han people are unreliable.

Duoduo did not take the Yongli Emperor Zhu Youlang seriously. He only valued Li Chengdong alone. After all, Li Chengdong had many years of war and later went to the army to have a certain combat effectiveness. He firmly believed that as long as Li Chengdong was eliminated, the demise of the Yongli Dynasty would be just a blink of an eye.

Therefore, in order to save face and compete with Haoge, Duoduo sent out all the Inlaid White Banner and most of the Zhengbai Banner this time.

In Duoduo's opinion, sending all the elites of the two flags out was really giving Li Chengdong enough face. No matter how hard Li Chengdong could fight, the elites of the two flags of the Baiyingbai will be able to throw rats. If Boluo uses his troops properly, he will probably be able to conquer Fujian and Guangdong in at most three months.

However, what he could not have expected was that Li Chengdong actually suffered so much. As soon as he entered Fujian, he killed his five thousand elite troops. Is this still the vulnerable Ming army?

When did the Ming army be so able to fight?

Is the Ming Dynasty not over?

How can I explain to the emperor?

If Haoge's side knew that he had defeated such a big battle, would he use himself as a slaughter? If you don't say anything else, you can't understand people and use people inappropriately.

Dodo knew Boro's intention to send Azig and Nikan back. He asked him to choose one of the two of them as a scapegoat to take the blame for his defeat.
