When Emperor Chongzhen was free to write books and commentaries, Dorgon, who was far away in Japan, was actually having a very difficult time.
Seeing that June was coming soon, he was very anxious.
He was afraid that suddenly someone from outside would report that the Spanish fleet was passing by, but he had no money and was not ready to buy firearms or a ship.
More than a month ago, Iwami Ginzan had decided to attack the Tokugawa shogunate.
However, the tragedy was that he could not fight across the sea.
The closest one between Honshu Island and Kyushu Island is the Shimonoseki Strait.
The narrowest point at the northeast end of the strait is only about 700 meters.
Heavy artillery deployed here can hit the other side.
Since ancient times, this place has been a battleground for military strategists.
Therefore, both the Tokugawa shogunate and the Kyushu allied forces deployed heavy troops here.
Now, it is far more difficult for Dorgon to fight through here than he imagined.
Previously, Dorgon issued an order to test the enemy's Tokugawa shogunate's navy and the troops on the shore.
There was no possibility of breaking through the opponent's defense line.
The biggest difficulty is actually the naval issue.
In cross-sea battles, as long as they are on land, with the combat power of the Qing warriors, they are not afraid of the Tokugawa shogunate's musketeers at all.
However, the presence of the navy will cut off subsequent reinforcements.
If the enemy is outnumbered on the other side and the Qing army does not receive subsequent reinforcements, it may eventually be exhausted.
This reason is why Dorgon never launched a war even though he knew there was not much time.
Of course, there are other reasons, such as food issues.
This problem is considered an old problem in the Qing Dynasty, and Dorgon has always had a headache.
After arriving in Japan, he realized that Japan was also a country short of food.
In the Japanese country, silver was not actually a hard currency and was generally only used for foreign trade or large transactions, or transactions between dignitaries.
In ordinary private transactions, rice is actually the unit of exchange.
This shows the importance of food in the Japanese country.
The previous wars with the Tokugawa Shogunate all took place on Kyushu Island.
The destruction of the war caused great losses to the people's livelihood in Kyushu.
Although he is currently at a stalemate with the Tokugawa Shogunate across the sea, he has been recuperating for some time.
However, the warriors of the Qing Dynasty were not engaged in production, and the farmers who farmed the fields were all Japanese.
However, these Japanese people basically joined the Catholic Church to avoid taxes.
Fortunately, now they have to deal with the common enemy of the Tokugawa shogunate, the coalition forces will work together in the same boat, and in the end the food will be evenly distributed.
It's no problem to survive, but there are really very few food supplies to store for the war.
On this day, Dorgon summoned a group of his trusted generals to discuss the military situation and see if there was any good way.
However, the key to the war still lies in the navy.
The change in naval strength cannot be achieved overnight.
In addition, the Manchus and Qing Dynasties were mostly landlubbers and had never had any experience in water warfare before.
These people in the hall were all at a loss.
At this time, there was another noise outside the hall.
Hearing the chaotic footsteps, everyone in the hall knew who was coming.
Sure enough, Hauge and his men appeared at the door of the palace and walked into the hall in a swaggering manner.
"What are you doing here?"
Duduo's face was very ugly.
He didn't like to see Hauge very much, and he was rude when he spoke.
When Hauge heard this, he looked at the three brothers in the palace and sneered: "If my nephew doesn't come, do you plan to stay here all the time, either watching the Spanish leave or waiting until the dogs come to attack?"
Dorgon's face was gloomy after hearing this, but he didn't say anything.
What he had been thinking about all this time was based on facts, and he couldn't refute it.

But Azig didn't want to show weakness and immediately asked: "Do you have any good ideas?"
With the IQ of a bird like Hauge, he is not even worthy of carrying Dorgon's shoes.
Now that even Dorgon is in trouble, Hauge may have some way to come here this time just to taunt him again.
This is basically a consensus, and that's why Azig asked a question.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Hauge slapped his chest and said loudly: "Nonsense, I didn't want to say it at first, thinking you had a solution.
But now, I realized that all of you are as stupid as pigs.
Look, my nephew I can’t go down anymore, so I have to come here.”
Hearing this, it seemed that Hauge could solve the current dilemma, which made a group of people in the hall look at each other in confusion.
It’s so weird when the sun comes out from the west Dorgon's city is indeed relatively deep.
After hearing this, he not only turned a blind eye to Hauge's rudeness, but also smiled and said kindly: "Now it is related to the future of our Qing Dynasty.
Since you have a way, why not say it?"
Listen"
Hauge's expression was very unsatisfactory, and he seemed to be extremely proud.
He ignored Dorgon and slowly glanced at the group of people in the hall, taking in their shocked faces and feeling very happy.
Just when Duduo was about to go crazy, he heard Hauge say: "Okay, since you are asking for advice humbly, I will give you some advice."
At this point, he asked as if he was instructing: "Where is the map?"
Dorgon was not angry, and even used his eyes to stop Duduo who was about to get angry, and asked someone to hang a map on the screen and push it to the middle of the hall.
Dorgon even walked down personally and came to the edge of the screen, waiting to hear what Hauge had in mind.
Hauge rarely had such an opportunity and seemed to enjoy it very much.
He did not speak immediately, but glanced provocatively at Dodo and Azig before approaching the screen.
Seeing this, Duduo was so angry that he wanted to explode.
However, Dorgon gave him a signal, and he did not dare to go against Dorgon's wishes.
He had no choice but to approach Azig next to him and whisper: "With a pig brain like his, how can he come up with any good ideas?
Wait.
After a while, I must humiliate him, he is too arrogant."
Unexpectedly, Hauge's sharp ears heard what he was saying, and he immediately turned his head and glared at Dodo and shouted: "What are you muttering about and doubting me?"
When Dorgon saw that Duduo was about to talk back, he immediately smoothed things over and said, "Okay, okay, it's an important matter.
If you have a good idea, why don't you tell us as soon as possible.
What we in the Qing Dynasty are short of is time."
"Hmph," Hauge said loudly to Duduo, "If you can't think of it yourself, just be humble and listen carefully to what my nephew has to say."
Duduo's face suddenly turned the color of pig's liver with anger, but Haug had already turned his head back proudly, pointed at the map and began to explain his idea.
"During last year's war, among the troops sent by the Tokugawa shogunate to Kyushu, there were many troops from Shikoku Island.
My great nephew remembered clearly that these troops on Shikoku Island suffered heavy casualties, and it was my great nephew who inflicted these casualties.
This In other words, there are not many troops on Shikoku Island now, and this is one of them.”
Hearing this, Dorgon frowned slightly, looked at Shikoku Island, and began to consider what Hauge said.
It was not that he had not considered the Shikoku side before, but he gave up due to various reasons.
Now that Hauge was talking about this news, he had not noticed it before.
"Now, we have accumulated heavy troops here, just thinking about crossing the Shimonoseki Strait and attacking Iwami Ginzan.
Therefore, most of the Tokugawa shogunate's troops are also deployed here, especially their navy, which is used to defend the horse.
Mainly Guan Strait" The Shimonoseki Strait is really too narrow, and if one is not careful, the boat can reach the other side.
Therefore, the navy of the Tokugawa Shogunate can be said to patrol here day and night.
When Hauge said this, he suddenly pointed to the Shikoku side with his hand and said: "The Toyo Strait is the narrowest place in Kyushu and Shikoku, with a width of less than thirty miles.
Although there is water from the Tokugawa Shogunate, The division is patrolling, but it is not their key defense area.
As long as we try our best to break through the strait blockade here, there will be no problem. " Hearing this, Duduo couldn't bear it anymore, so he sarcastically said loudly: "I thought it was such a great idea, haha."
Others had similar expressions on their faces, and many of them were a little disappointed.

Because of this idea, it’s not like they haven’t thought about it.
Dorgon was also disappointed.
When he was about to speak, he saw Hauge pointing his finger at Duoduo and scolding loudly: "You are as stupid as a pig.
If you can't think of a good way, just forget it.
And you interrupt my nephew's speech, pig."
"You" Duduo was furious when he heard that Hauge had never looked down on his IQ before.
You know, he has always looked down on Hauge, but now he has the opposite effect.
He is really angry.
But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Dorgon: "Okay, everyone, listen carefully.
It's not too late to speak after you finish."
Hearing this, Duduo had no choice but to hold back his breath, but his heart became fierce.
If he couldn't say one, two, three later, he would have to vent his anger.
Hauge was very happy to see Dodo's pig liver face, and felt very happy, so he continued: "Shikoku is mountainous, which is not conducive to the deployment of large forces.
This is why the Tokugawa shogunate despised Shikoku.
It is precisely because of this, Our Qing Dynasty chose to break through from the four countries for two reasons. " "First, the Four Kingdoms are mountainous, and we don't need too many troops to attack.
With only 2,000 of our Qing warriors as the main force, I believe we can conquer the Four Kingdoms.
No matter what, there are some plains in the Four Kingdoms where food can be grown and plundered.
For military use."
"Second, let those Japanese pick off their hair, pretend to be our Qing army, and march into Shikoku continuously.
It will give the Tokugawa shogunate the illusion that it is our Qing Dynasty that occupied Shikoku, and then used the Shikoku as the foundation to attack Honshu.
If That’s right, our Qing Dynasty has many options to attack in the four countries.
To the north, we can attack Iwami Ginzan, and to the east, we can attack Edo, where the Tokugawa shogunate is located.
This is very threatening. " After hearing this, Duduo almost couldn't help but refute.
Because this idea is good, but Shikoku is mountainous.
If the Qing army really wanted to base itself on the Shikoku, the Tokugawa shogunate's navy would have to isolate the Shikoku, and the Qing army would have to starve to death.
Because of this, they had thought about this situation before, but gave up.
But just now Hauge said that the Japanese were allowed to pretend to be the Qing army, which means that this statement is false.
It was precisely for this reason that Duduo suppressed his thoughts of rebuttal and continued to listen.
At this time, Hauge seemed to have transformed into the former Huang Taiji, talking eloquently: "The Tokugawa shogunate does not know the details in a short period of time, and it will definitely not dare to let our Qing Dynasty use the Shikoku as a springboard to attack Honshu.
In this way, their The navy will definitely be transferred to the four countries and try to blockade the four countries."
Hearing this, Dorgon probably understood what Hauge meant.
His eyes lit up and he immediately stared at the Shimonoseki Strait.
Sure enough, I heard Hauge then talk about the Shimonoseki Strait: "As long as the Tokugawa Shogunate deploys a large number of navy to blockade the four countries, then the Shimonoseki Strait will give us an opportunity for the Qing Dynasty to take advantage of.
Before the war begins, , we can also secretly deploy troops, but they can be discovered by the other side.
When the Four Kingdoms War starts, they will think that we have already transferred our troops to the Four Kingdoms.
In this case, the troops on the Shimonoseki Strait will definitely be slack, and some may even be transferred away.
In this way, as long as we.
If the Qing Dynasty chooses a good time, they will definitely be able to attack it."
Dorgon nodded repeatedly after hearing this.
This method is indeed feasible.
The other Manchu and Qing generals in the hall all nodded and looked at Hauge with a look of shock.
After three days of farewell, it was time to look at each other with admiration.
It was really appropriate to use it at this time.
Some people even came up with the idea that Hauge was worthy of being Huang Taiji's son.
As for Duduo, his face was very ugly.

Although he wanted to humiliate Hauge, at this time, he had to admit that Hauge's method was indeed feasible.
However, Dorgon quickly came back to his senses, thought of something, and suddenly frowned.
The change in his expression was noticed by Haug.
Hauge understood what Dorgon was thinking, and immediately spoke first: "This strategy was thought up by my great nephew, and it will definitely reach the state.
Therefore, it is up to you to attack the four countries.
There is no way that my great nephew will come up with ideas and fight hard again."
After hearing this, the more flexible people in the hall came to their senses first and understood what Hauge was referring to.
The army attacking Shikoku will inevitably be trapped in Shikoku Island after the Tokugawa Shogunate's navy blocks Shikoku.
If the Tokugawa shogunate attacked Shikoku with all its strength, the troops on Shikoku Island would likely be wasted there because there would be no reinforcements.
Of course, this is just a possibility.
As long as the army that attacks Honshu can fight well, it can even capture Iwami Ginzan relatively quickly.
Then the Tokugawa shogunate might not bother to destroy the enemies of the four countries first, but would instead deploy heavy troops to rob Iwami Ginzan.
But no matter what, the troops sent to the Four Kingdoms are very dangerous, and there will definitely be losses in the process of conquering the Four Kingdoms.
Under normal circumstances, no one is willing to go to this kind of war.
Dorgon stared at Hauge, extremely surprised.
Today's Hauge performance was beyond their expectations.
It's like a stupid person suddenly enlightened.
If Hauge had always behaved like this in the past, his position as prince would not have been abolished by Huang Taiji.
Not only Dorgon, but also all the people in the hall had this idea.
Hauge, so surprising and surprising:
