Chapter 2: Each has its own scheming (4)

The brother brought back the news that Dorgon might have been buried in the boundless desert. Although this news is uncertain, the hope of entering the desert and returning alive is already very slim. Especially Dorgon is still being chased and forced to enter the desert. He must not be sufficiently prepared, and the hope of survival is infinitely close to zero.

Although there were several small-scale conflicts between Chaharmonic and the Later Jin Dynasty at this time, Lin Danhan still regretfully notified the news to Jirgalang, the coach of the Later Jin Dynasty. Jirgalang was still skeptical when he received the news. However, later some people confirmed that Na Ge brought people back to Chaharmonic and did not see anyone similar to Dorgon Beile following him. So he believed the news and sent someone to send the news back to Shengjing.

Although the Ming Dynasty also sent a small team to the northwest desert to find Dorgon's traces, he had lost contact for several days and did not know how the situation of the small team was. At this time, the brother suddenly returned and brought back the news that Dorgon might be buried in the desert. Man Gui did not dare to neglect it and ordered people to send the news to the capital overnight.

Zhu Yinglong and Huang Taiji received this news one after another, and the time difference was only one day.

If Dorgon still said or had seen the body dead, Chahar Mongolia would not have concealed it. Later Jin also killed Lin Dankhan's brother-in-law Langsu. Even if Chahar Mongolia killed Dorgon, it would not be possible. At most, it would increase the hatred between the two sides. Now a living Dorgon is more important than a dead Dorgon. With Dorgon in hand, Chahar Mongolia can negotiate conditions with the Later Jin and force the Later Jin to make huge concessions. If Dorgon is still alive and was caught and brought back by the other person, Lin Dankhan has no need to conceal it, and there is no need to tell the Later Jin side such an unconfirmed news. Therefore, Zhu Yinglong can basically judge that the news brought back by the brother is true, but Dorgon's life and death cannot be concluded immediately.

However, this news can be used for a while. Zhu Yinglong ordered someone to secretly pass Li Yongzhen over and whispered a few instructions.

As early as the place where the Eagle Guard was established, the Eagle Guard infiltrated the Later Jin Dynasty. Huang Taiji wanted to be the emperor and repair the palace in Shengjing, and eunuchs were naturally indispensable in the palace. Eagle Guard was composed of a group of eunuchs at the beginning. Many children who were castrated since childhood and wanted to enter the palace as eunuchs were collected by Eagle Guards. After rigorous training, those with excellent qualifications were selected to enter the Later Jin Dynasty through various channels, and then penetrate the Later Jin Dynasty's palace. Now it has begun to show results. Although these small eunuchs are relatively young, because they are smart and smart, and those trained by eunuchs in the palace like Li Yongzhen, they are basically in the Later Jin Palace. Since they did not need to convey information or something in the early stage, there was no danger of exposing their identity. These eunuchs were the most successful in serving Huang Taiji's great concubine, and they were also quite trusted by Zhezhe.

However, these eunuchs Li Yongzhen, who were around Huang Taiji's key concubine, dared not use them at will, but only maintained a certain single-line connection, because these people will play a greater role in the future. If they are used now, it will arouse Huang Taiji's alertness. In this operation, Li Yongzhen used only a lowest-level eunuch, and he only heard some vague words and spread him as a rumor. The next time, there will be people from outside to cooperate, but this eunuch may have to sacrifice.

However, in order to achieve the goal of disrupting the political situation of the Later Jin Dynasty, it is impossible to sacrifice without sacrifice.

When Huang Taiji received a secret report from Jirgalang, the first thing he thought of was to temporarily suppress the horrifying news and not to inform the public. However, if the news was not informed, if the news was opposed by the court and the enemy, he would definitely use the news to fan the flames and incite civil unrest.

I asked Fan Wencheng to discuss it. Fan Wencheng also thought this issue was very difficult. If I were not careful, I would assert Huang Taiji accused of killing my brother. In particular, Dorgon was the heir decided by Khan first, and he was Huang Taiji's most concerned brother.

Just when Huang Taiji was indecisive, a piece of news came quietly from the Shengjing Palace that the fourteenth Beller Dorgon was dead, but the Khan of Tiancong issued an order to not send a funeral secretly.

Although the rumor is not true, the rumor is coming from the Shengjing Palace. It is said that the origin of this news was a small eunuch who was sweeping the floor in Chongde Hall. The news was heard by him by chance. He told the news several small eunuchs around him, probably because he remembered that he was talking nonsense and talking about the right and wrong of the court, which might lead to a disaster. He committed suicide by hanging his beam that night.

Immediately afterwards, a rumor appeared in the ears of the rulers and ministers of the Later Jin Dynasty. Huang Taiji had a secret peace talk with Lin Danhan of Chaharmony after the war. The matter was hidden from the Ming Dynasty. The content of the peace talks was unknown. Therefore, many ministers who secretly supported Dorgon speculated whether Huang Taiji would use any conditions in exchange for Chaharmony to help him solve Dorgon, a hidden opponent and brother. If Dorgon died at the hands of Chaharmony, naturally no one would suspect him. This poisonous plan to kill people with a knife is really poisonous!

At this moment, how could Lin Danhan miss this opportunity to attack Huang Taiji? After testing the Ming Dynasty's attitude, he immediately issued a statement to the public, claiming that Chahar Mongol had had secret negotiations with the Later Jin Dynasty before, and the content of the negotiations did involve Dorgon, but the specific Chahar Mongol did not announce it to the public because it was a secret agreement. The Chahar Mongols have always been concerned about loyalty and righteousness. They promised that Huang Taiji would not say the content of the secret peace talks, and would not say it out.

This plausible statement further led to suspicion between the ruler and minister of the Later Jin Dynasty. For a moment, Huang Taiji was immediately caught in suspicion, accusations, and scolding, and was in a state of turmoil.

At this time, I don’t know who revealed another news, which added fuel to the fire. On the way to hunt Dorgon, the brother had received an order from Lin Danhan. This order was to order him to chase Dorgon to death. No matter whether this order was, this order seemed to give Dorgon a glimmer of life. In fact, Lin Danhan had already had a murderous intent on Dorgon. This order cooperated with Chahar Mongol's statement on the secret peace talks, which immediately attracted high attention from the senior officials of the Later Jin Dynasty, because this was a powerful evidence of Huang Taiji's secret collusion with Lin Danhan and attempting to kill people with a knife. Although this was a bit incredible and incredible, it was precisely because of these that Dorgon died that everyone would not suspect Huang Taiji.

There is no definite conclusion to all the rumors and evidence, but the spearheads of these rumors are all directed at a person. This person is Huang Taiji, who has been silent since the rumors, and has neither defended himself nor refuted him.

This is a conspiracy, with the purpose of making the internal chaos of the Great Jin Kingdom itself. There is only one person in this world who can have such great energy and force himself to such a situation. Except for him, no one can have such great energy that Chahar Mongolia can cooperate so hard.

Huang Taiji was very smart and understood his situation very well. Now he would have ten sentences to push himself back as long as he went out to say a word. And he could not say so many words by himself. Before the matter was concluded, he was still the Khan of the Great Jin Kingdom, and no one could shake this. Moreover, even if Dorgon was dead, he was the first Jirgalang who knew the news. He could testify for himself. Therefore, in the face of no definite evidence, no matter how loud the domestic opposition was, he could not overthrow himself, because he had more than half of the troops of the Later Jin Kingdom. When he returned to Shengjing, he ordered Haoge to temporarily take over Dorgon's Zhengbai Banner. Now he is the strongest. No one in the Great Jin Kingdom can shake his status. This time the conspiracy against him will at most only cause civil strife in the Later Jin Kingdom to be swayed for a while, and it will not shake the fundamentals.

But this kind of feeling of being conspired and being scolded and being wronged is really undeniable.

Was Dorgon really buried in the desert? Of course not. People are prone to break out in adversity. Dorgon is extraordinary in his own talent, and even more amazing wisdom and perseverance are bursting out during his escape.

In the face of Na Ge's pursuit, according to common sense, all the forces should be reduced together so that he can exert greater strength to protect himself. Of course, if the goal is too big, it will also lead to obvious tracking targets. However, for a team with only a few dozen people left, and in the vast desert, dozens of people are not much different from a few people. Moreover, Na Ge does not know how many people he has. Even with his unique skills of following, he can only judge at most one approximate, so he divided the troops in the middle, but it did not separate them all at once, but a team was divided into different groups at every distance. Although Na Ge discovered that Dorgon divided his troops, he would naturally send people to chase Dorgon's team, and he led the main force to chase Dorgon's team.

After the first three divisions, Dorgon naturally followed the brigade. When the fourth division was divided, Dorgon left the brigade and quietly changed his weapons with a soldier. He went on the road with the fourth division. Similarly, Na Ge sent a chasing team to this time. The three brigade had already been chased by the people sent by Na Ge, and the fourth brigade was no exception. However, when Na Ge's men were chasing and chasing, Dorgon ordered people to bury himself in the soil and use a copper tube as a breathing channel. Then these people continued to lead the pursuit troops away. After Na Ge's men chased and returned, Dorgon crawled out of the soil and fled alone.

The brother's men were only concerned about chasing this squad, and did not notice the changes along the way. Moreover, the desert was so big that there was no people at all. If it weren't for the silver wolf raised by the brother, the person sent out might not have been able to chase Dorgon's people.

Of course, although Dorgon has temporarily escaped from the pursuit, it is not easy to survive. In this deserted place, looking at it, there are loess everywhere in the Gobi Desert, and he doesn't even know where he is. He only knows that the sun rises to the east, but he can't go. He doesn't know when he will be able to reach Shengjing in the west, so Dorgon chose the direction south.

Dorgon walked south for five days, and his water bag was already empty, his lips were already cracked, and the dry food he carried on him only allowed him to hold on for two days. He had not entered the water for three days, and he had been traveling for another three days, and his will was almost on the verge of dispersion.

"Water, water..." This unconscious murmur has been with Dorgon's staggering footsteps for a day.

His throat was already smoking, and he couldn't drink water anymore, and he couldn't walk anymore.

Suddenly, a touch of green crossed Dorgon's eyes like lightning.

Haha, there is no way out, Dorgon finally showed ecstasy in his eyes, and he used the last bit of strength in his body to run towards the green.

A clear small lake came into Dorgon's eyes, with these green grass dotted by the lake. Although the water source in the desert is precious, most of it is poisonous water that cannot be directly drunk. However, Dorgon no longer cared about these. There was only water in his eyes, and even poisonous water could not be cared about.

He fell head-on by the small lake and was crazily absorbing the sweet lake water. After a while, Dorgon drank a stomach full of water, then turned over and lay down, feeling that his eyelids could not be supported. When his head tilted, he became unconscious.
