Hong Chengchou said: "It is the looting of Shandong."

Hong Chengchou, a traitor, really thinks about Dorgon.

Because Jiannu mobilized troops this time but failed to achieve his goal, this was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Dorgon's prestige.

In addition to this, there is something even more troublesome, that is, the Eight Banners' public warehousing and private warehousing are exhausted. If you can't find a supplement on the way to the north, it will be very difficult to endure this winter.

In this way, Jiannu's national strength will be severely weakened.

Such a result is unacceptable to Hong Chengchou.

If the Qing Dynasty became weaker or even destroyed, wouldn’t he have done a mistake in submitting to the Qing Dynasty? The converts were fanatical, and they did not want their mother country to become stronger, but they hoped that the converts could destroy his mother country.

Dorgon sighed: "Shandong was robbed by our Qing soldiers before, but in fact, there was no more money or food. The best target for robbery must be Jiangnan. No matter how bad it is, he has to go deep into Huguang to go deep into Jiangnan and Huguang. Unfortunately, even if our Qing soldiers have the ability to go deep into Jiangnan and Huguang, the people they have robbed will not be able to bring back the money or food they have robbed."

If you really can't take it back, just one Yellow River is enough to block their way back.

After a pause, Dorgon said again: "So it's better to go to Shandong than to be."

Fan Wencheng said again: "Master, besides looting Shandong, there is another thing that must be done."

Seeing Fan Wencheng's solemn appearance, Dorgon immediately reacted and said in a deep voice: "Digging the Yellow River?"

"To be more precise, it is to dig the embankment on the south bank of the Yellow River!" Fan Wencheng said sinisterly, "After defeating Li Zicheng's puppet Shun army, the embankment on the south bank of the Yellow River will be dig the embankment in Kaifeng Prefecture."

"Didn't Chongzhen want to be in Xuzhou and Guide Prefecture with all the fields?"

"Didn't Chongzhen want to issue bonds with the arable land of Xuzhou, Guide Prefecture and even Kaifeng Prefecture?"

"Then, our Qing soldiers dug the southern embankment of the Yellow River and directly flooded Kaifeng Prefecture, Guide Prefecture and Xuzhou, so that all the efforts made by Emperor Chongzhen, the dog, would be wiped out!"

After a pause, Fan Wencheng said again: "This will also severely damage the national strength of the Southern Ming!"

"Not bad!" Hong Chengchou and Ning Wan also agreed, "Digging the south embankment of the Yellow River can create a large flood along the Huanghuai line, which can at least leave millions of Han people homeless. In order to calm the flood, place and raise millions of victims, it is enough for Chongzhen and the Southern Ming court to be busy for several years. The Ming army will have no time to look north within these years."

Fan Wencheng continued: "This time, my Qing soldiers can slowly capture Shandong."

Dorgon pondered for a moment, then shouted: "He Gehui, immediately send a flying cavalry to inform Xiaoxian's Lanqi. After receiving the order, he came to Kaifeng to meet with the king immediately. On the way to march, don't forget to gather the escaped Baoyi slaves on the road, and then send the flying cavalry to Peixian and Xin'an Town. After ordering Zhengbai Banner, Zhenghong Banner and Zhenglan Banner to receive the order, they immediately went north to attack Shandong, looted Yanzhou, Jinan and Qingzhou prefectures, and all the money, grain, livestock and population were abducted."

"Yeah!" He Luohui knelt down and beat Qian, got up and left.

Dorgon said again: "Come, bring in the messenger of the false supreme."

After a moment, a scholar wearing a casual shirt walked in with his hands and feet twitching.

"I'm in the morning." The scholar came in and bowed to Dorgon to the ground, "Welcome to the king."

"Niu Quan?" Dorgon asked with a smile, "Who is Niu Jinxing, the fake prime minister?"

"It's my father." Niu Quan responded respectfully, "I came to discuss with the king the matter of the sanctification of the war and peace with the king."

"Stop the peace agreement?" Dorgon sneered, "Do you think my Qing soldiers will stop the battle?"

Niu Quan hurriedly said, "King, our Dashun Army actually has no intention of opposing the Qing army. It was just to deceive Kaifeng Prefecture from the Ming army, so he took the initiative to enter Shangqiu."

Dorgon sneered: "Do you think I will believe it?"

Niu Quan said again: "King, if you station troops under Kaifeng City, you will be hit by Chongzhen's trick."

"How do you say this?" Dorgon pretended to be puzzled and snorted coldly, "Why did I station troops in Kaifeng be the trick of Emperor Chongzhen?"

Niu Quan said anxiously: "Because this is Chongzhen's plan to lure the tiger out of the mountain. First, transfer the Qing troops from Xuzhou, and then he will lead the Ming army to launch a counterattack. If nothing unexpected happens, the Qing soldiers who stayed outside Xuzhou City at this time may have suffered a loss."

As soon as he finished speaking, a Bayala soldier hurried in to report: "Master, the Ming army in Xuzhou City launched a large-scale counterattack last night..."

"Stop!" Dorgon hurriedly stopped him.

Then he pretended to let Niu Quan go out of the tent and wait.

After a moment, someone led the Niu Quan into the tent and said, "Last night, the Ming army in Xuzhou City dispatched about a thousand people to launch a counterattack, and it has been wiped out by all the Eight Banners soldiers."

"King, this is just a tentative counterattack by the Ming army."

Niu Quandao: "The next step is to launch a larger counterattack."

Hearing this, Dorgon seemed a little moved and asked in a deep voice: "Niu Quan, is Li Zicheng sincerely discussing peace? Could he not attack Shangqiu when my army returns to Xuzhou?"

"No." Niu Quan flatly denied, "I have always believed in my words."

"Okay, then I will agree to stop the army." Dorgon said, "But you go back and warn Li Zicheng, let him be more honest with me. If you dare to covet Shangqiu, I will definitely not forgive him."

"No." Niu Quan swears, "It must not be like this."

"Come here, I'll see you off for me." Dorgon stood up and said.

When he was leaving the tent, Niu Quan vaguely heard Dorgon say:

"Transfer the order, and the flags immediately set off their camps and returned to Xuzhou."

Hearing this, Niu Quan clenched his fists hard.

...

Niu Quan soon returned to Kaifeng Prefecture.

"Sage." Niu Quan reported, "Jiannu agreed to stop the army and truce."

"Is that so? This is really good news." Li Zicheng was very happy when he heard this.

Niu Jinxing was also very happy, thinking that his son had made great contributions this time.

After a while, a visit came to report that Jiannu really set out the camp to Xuzhou.

Niu Jinxing immediately said to Li Zicheng: "Master, this is a great opportunity to seize Shangqiu and should not be missed."

"Hmm?" Li Zicheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this and asked in surprise, "Prime Minister, have we stopped fighting with Jiannu? Why are we going to seize Shangqiu again?"

Niu Quan was also puzzled and said, "Yes, Father, we cannot speak without trust."

"What do you know?" Niu Jinxing scolded Niu Quan and said to Li Zicheng, "Sage, there is no need to talk about faith and righteousness with foreign barbarians like Jiannu."

"That's true." Li Zicheng was a little moved.

As the Emperor of Dashun, it is really hard to resist the temptation of expanding territory.

However, Li Zicheng was still a little worried: "But if he really sent troops to Guide, would Jiannu be angry and would he not go to attack Xuzhou again and come back to attack us?"

"Don't worry, I certainly won't."

Niu Jinxing said: "Didn't Chongzhen send a letter to report the victory and express his gratitude?"
