Chapter 748 The Intensification of Contradiction

Guanzhong, Xiqing and Xijing.

After Ajige raised his army, the Qing Dynasty was divided into East and West Qing Dynasty.

Although Fulin and Ajige both regarded themselves as the orthodox Qing Dynasty and believed that they were Qing, in order to avoid cognitive confusion, all parts of the north still called Fulin's Qing Dynasty Western Qing Dynasty and Ajige's Eastern Qing Dynasty.

The originally unified regime is now divided into one east and one west, and its majesty is naturally ruined, and its national power is not as strong as before.

Especially for Fulin, his situation was even more difficult than Azige.

At this time, although the internal affairs of Ajige's Dongqing were a mess, Ajige was able to fight, had a high prestige in the army, could control his subordinates, and his regime was relatively stable.

Fulin retreated to Xi'an in a panic all the way, and his majesty was wiped out. The domestic warlords and local forces all refused to obey orders and faced huge challenges.

This made Fulin and tens of thousands of people panic all day long. When they were in Xi'an, they felt that the wolves were looking around and restless.

Xi'an, in the palace.

Faced with the current dilemma, Fulin, Mandahai, Jirgalang, Luke Dehun and others gathered to start a closed-door meeting within the Manchus.

Now there is a serious separation within the Western Qing court, and all parties only care about their own interests. It is difficult to be in the same mind as Manren, and Manren no longer trusts Han people.

Jiergalang said, "Not only in the local area, Wu Sangui, Jiang Xiang, Wang Yongqiang and others do not obey the imperial decrees. Even the Han officials in the court did not take the head of the Ministry of Public Security in their hometown seriously, and they often contradict each other!"

A few days ago, Jiergalang wanted to call the Shaanxi Provincial Treasury to use the money and grain to resettle the family members of the Eight Banners. Officials from the Three Divisions of Shaanxi, as well as the Ministry of Revenue, actually disobeyed the situation and used the money and grain to support the Guanning Army, but refused to implement it.

Not only that, the Han officials in the court seem to be working on the group recently and are forming a force to compete with the Manchus for control over the government.

This is a very bad omen, indicating that the Manchus gradually lose control of the court and the local government.

Lukede had a gloomy face, "The day before yesterday, I wanted to set a few counties in Guanzhong. As a flag village, Chen Mingxia and others dared to oppose me in court. The Shaanxi Green Camp also clashed with Zhenghong Banner, and injured more than a dozen flag officials! It's really outrageous!"

The Eight Banners fled from Beijing to Guanzhong, and their original property and fields were discarded.

So many people fled to Xi'an, but they were not engaged in production, so they needed Han people to support them.

In the past, the Eight Banners had a strong power, and they robbed the Han people of the land as flag fields and plundered the Han people as flag slaves. If the Han people could tolerate it, they would endure it.

After all, he is not an opponent, and he will die if he can't bear it. But now, the majesty of the man has been beaten to the ground by Zhao Ming, and his power is not as strong as before.

Now, the Qing Dynasty has such a virtue and still wants to be as powerful as before. Naturally, the Han forces in the Qing Dynasty cannot tolerate it.

Luke Dehun took a fancy to several Fu counties in the Wei River Basin and wanted to occupy them as banner fields, but the fields in these counties had long been returned to Guanning, as well as Shaanxi warlords such as Wang Yongqiang, as well as Shaanxi gentry and officials. How could they let the bannermen take them away?

Therefore, when the bannermen wanted to run and encircle land, a green camp jumped out and injured the cavalry.

Although the leader of the Green Camp Qian was executed in the end, the matter of Luke Dehun's land encirclement was also ruined.

"When these dog slaves saw that the Qing Dynasty was in trouble, they dared to jump out and fight against their master!" Fu Lin's face was full of anger.

After the blessing arrived in Xi'an, he felt deeply that his authority was not present and his words were useless. He had already accumulated anger in his heart.

Most of the Manchu nobles, two red, two blue, and two yellow, with more than 100,000 people followed Fulin to Guanzhong. The original flag fields and manors of each banner were all owned by Ajige.

In order to calm the hearts of the Manchu people, Fulin had to settle these Manchu nobles, which required the supply of flag fields and houses to house and houses to house and place many Eight Banner nobles.

Previously, Manchu was in full swing, and it was enough to just grab it. The Han people did not dare to resist at all, but now the situation has changed subtly.

Now, the Shunzhi imperial court has moved to Guanzhong for more than a year, and the Eight Banners have not been resettled. Some bannermen and their families can only live in tents, and their living problems have not been solved.

Mandahai said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, please calm down! Now, the important thing is to stabilize people's hearts!"

Recently, Fu Lin is often furious, but anger cannot solve the problem.

The stable hearts of the people mentioned by Mandahai do not refer to the hearts of the people in the Xiqing Kingdom, but to the Eight Banners who followed them to Xi'an.

Now that the Qing Dynasty is divided, if the Shunzhi court cannot give them enough benefits, it is inevitable that these Eight Banner nobles will not surrender to Ajige in the east.

Fulin nodded with a gloomy face, "The Eight Banners of Manchuria are the foundation of the Qing Dynasty. I must let the Eight Banners warriors have no worries."

Lukede said: "But what if the government and the country directly occupy the flag fields and arouse the Han people's resistance? With the current military power of Manchuria, it is indeed difficult to suppress the Han people."

In the hall, everyone was silent for a while, and Jirgalang said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I have a way to do it!"

Fulin immediately said, "Prince Zheng, please tell me!"

Jirgalang glanced at everyone before whispering four words, "Use the Han to control the Han!"

Fulin's face suddenly collapsed because this "using Han to control the Han Dynasty" was the strategy Dorgon implemented in the later period.

Now that Manchus have weak power, they can only use Han people to deal with Han people if they want to maintain their rule.

Mandahai's heart moved. Seeing Fulin's face was gloomy, he was afraid that he would act irritated, so he asked, "Prince Zheng, let me tell you in detail."

Jiergalang then said: "The Han people bully the weak and are afraid of the strong, and they are also happy with internal strife. Now they dare to do this when they see that our Qing Dynasty was frustrated, but they can only subdue them by using a little trick."

When Fulin heard him say this, he exhaled a breath of turbid air and said in a deep voice: "How is Prince Zheng going to execute it?"

Now Fulin can't take care of so much, as long as he can suppress the Han people and maintain the rule of Manchus.

Jiergalang said in a deep voice: "Emperor, the servant thought he could carry the flag. From the army of Wu Sangui, Jiang Xiang, Wang Yongqiang and others, he selected a part of the Han people and organized them into the Eight Banners and gave preferential treatment. This not only strengthens the strength of the Eight Banners, but also weakens the power of Wu Sangui, Jiang Xiang, Wang Yongqiang and others. As long as the court's military strength is strengthened, the cowardice of the Han people will naturally obey the Qing Dynasty."

Jiergalang's plan was to tempt a part of the Han people as a bannerman and bind some of the Han people to the Eight Banners.

If we could select 60,000 elite troops from the Han warlords such as Wu Sangui, Jiang Xiang, Wang Yongqiang, etc., take the Manchus as the leader, control the military power, and form the new Eight Banners.

Then, the power of the Qing court increased, and Wu Sangui and others could only obey orders.

Lukedehun frowned, "Wu Sangui and others are still willing to draw soldiers from their commands now?"

In the past, raising a flag was a good thing, and raising a flag was equivalent to entering the ruling class. The flag fields and the flags were obtained, and all the descendants had an iron rice bowl, but now the flag fields were full of people, not to mention the Han flag.

Furthermore, how could Wu Sangui and others be willing to take away their elite soldiers in the Qing Dynasty?

This is indeed a problem. In the past, there were elite soldiers of the Eight Banners, but now there is no elite soldiers of the Eight Banners. Will the major Han warlords choose the elites and hand them over to the Qing court?
