The central military tent was crowded with people.
After the reply from the Ming court was circulated, the military tent fell into a brief silence.
Just as Dorgon was about to ask everyone, Duoduo took the initiative to step forward and said, "What do you think of this matter?"
Dorgon sat on the mat and clenched his fists quietly, sighing unwillingly in his heart: Those are all my words!
My words!
Duoduo kept his eyes on Dorgon.
When seeing Dorgon's helpless and helpless look, Duoduo sneered in his heart.
So what if I’m unwilling?
Who caused his defeat?
The Eight Banners are governed by strength.
Now the Zhengbai Banner has been completely destroyed and has lost its voice internally.
After Dorgon returned to Shengjing, not only did he lose his position as the leader of the banner, but he was afraid that even his uncle's position as regent would be lost.
What he had to do was to take advantage of the fall of the Plain White Banner to allow the Inlaid White Banner to rise!
In fact, it’s not Duoduo’s fault that he is heartless.
Although Duoduo and Dorgon were brothers, the friendship between them was only superficial.
certainly.
Compared with other half-brothers, it is not easy for them to have such a plastic friendship.
but...
Duoduo narrowed his eyes and thought of Jirgalang who was far away outside Shanhaiguan.
Dorgon was the uncle and regent, and Jirgalang was the trustworthy uncle who assisted in the administration.
If Dorgon fell, Jirgalang would be the only one in power.
He had to find a way to stop this from happening.
Without waiting for anyone to speak, Duoduo looked directly at Dorgon and said, "Fourteenth Brother, what do you think of this?"
Dorgon looked at Duoduo with some surprise, and then understood the other party's intention.
Whatever.
Instead of supporting others to get to the top, it is better to support your own brothers.
After understanding this, Dorgon stared at Duoduo and said, "Fifteenth brother, I lost many soldiers and generals during this trip, so I am guilty. It is not convenient for me to get involved in this matter. You can just discuss it."
"From now on, all the soldiers under the Zhengbai Banner will obey your orders."
As soon as these words were spoken, one could hear a pin drop in the military tent.
Duoduo was surprised at first, and then he was ecstatic.
With the support of Dorgon, his chances of succeeding the regent will greatly increase.
Hauge had a completely different attitude from Duoduo. His brows were instantly twisted into a knot.
This was a very bad thing for him.
Dorgon's fall was a foregone conclusion.
But a lean camel is bigger than a horse.
If Dorgon supported Duoduo to take over the position of regent, then the hope of others becoming regent would be very slim.
There is a secret hidden in the central military tent.
Aobai and Tulai looked at each other and quietly took half a step back.
When gods fight, mortals should stay away as much as possible.
Duoduo was the first to react. He came to Dorgon in person and said in a humble and respectful tone, "Brother Fourteen, you are too kind. Victory and defeat are common in the military. After returning to Shengjing, we will definitely plead for you in front of the emperor."
"Yes, Prince Rui, we will all plead for you." Haoge also said with a smile.
Dorgon shook his head: "Let's talk about the future later, let's solve the current business first."
After a long and boring discussion, everyone put the matter aside for the time being.
The reason for the suspension is simple: no one dares to make the final decision.
Zu Dashou is too important, so important that they dare not act on their own.
After taking a sip of tea, Duoduo changed the subject: "Since this matter cannot be discussed, let's change the subject."
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Duoduo immediately said, "Everyone, when are we going to leave?"
Dorgon still said nothing.
Hauge counted on his fingers.
They entered the pass in late May, besieged Xuanfu Town and then left the pass, then entered the pass again and headed south until they stopped in Shandong.
It is now mid-September.
The total time spent in customs is only four months!
"Prince Yu, we have only been in the pass for four months. Apart from traveling and fighting, we have not had much time to plunder, and the harvests of each tribe are not high. Are you in a hurry to go back?"
Duoduo shook his head slightly: "After we left the border, we first attacked Xuanfu for a long time but failed, and our morale dropped greatly. Then Prince Rui lost many soldiers and generals, and our morale dropped again."
"It's already difficult to reach Shandong, and if we continue to fight..."
Although Duoduo did not say the following words, the meaning was already very clear.
If we withdraw our troops now, we can still leave as a victor, but it will be hard to say after a long time.
"What do you think?" Hauge asked others.
Dorgon remained silent.
Tu Lai, Aobai didn't dare to say anything more and could only obey the order.
"Reorganize the troops and head north in ten days! During this period, all tribes should plunder food and civilians to prepare for the winter." Duoduo gave the order directly.
"Yes, sir."
The generals received the order and turned to leave.
On the way back.
Fan Wencheng walked behind Dorgon, feeling depressed.
Dorgon turned around and asked, "Mr. Fan, did what I did just now seem incompetent? Is it very frustrating to follow me?"
Fan Wencheng shook his head slowly: "Prince Rui misunderstood, this is not what I was thinking about."
"Oh?" Dorgon stopped and looked in the direction of Qufu. "Mr. Fan, are you referring to the robbery of the Duke of Yansheng's Mansion?"
"Well, I thought Prince Yu (Duoduo) would take this matter to heart, but I didn't expect him to ignore it." Fan Wencheng sighed, "Alas! The Duke of Yansheng's Mansion is a holy place for scholars all over the world. No one can desecrate it."
Dorgon strode up to Fan Wencheng and explained, "Mr. Fan, please don't think too much. This was not done by the Eight Banners soldiers."
