At the beginning, Qin Shi Huang traveled to my home

"In 1618, the th year of the Wanli reign, the Eight Banners Army of the Later Jin captured Fushun and plundered it. They gave away people and livestock to meritorious officers and soldiers, and organized the surrendered civilians into households.

And you, Senior Fan Wencheng, were also captured and surrendered at this time, and were later incorporated into the Red Banner of the Eight Banners of Manchuria as a slave.

Senior Fan Wencheng, after you were captured, not only did you not receive any important position from Nurhaci, you also had to endure discrimination and humiliation.

You spent nearly nine long years in depression.

However, the "Draft History of Qing Dynasty" says that you, Mr. Fan Wencheng, and your brother Fan Wencai took the initiative to seek an audience with Nurhaci and surrender to the Later Jin.

But this was written after the Qing Dynasty, so who can tell whether it is true or false? "

Li Wu glanced at Fan Wencheng, but she believed more in the first one. After all, at that time, Fan Wencheng had just passed the examination for a scholar and had great ambitions.

Fan Wencheng just smiled and didn't say a word the whole time. He knew that there must be many people in the Ming Dynasty scolding him, so let them scold him.

It’s not that he hasn’t been scolded before. There are so many people who scold him, so he doesn’t care at all.

Zhou Yu and Li Ji looked at Fan Wencheng. Although they didn't know this person very well, after talking to him they felt that Fan Wencheng was a good person. It was impossible for him to surrender to the enemy on his own initiative. It should be the first case.

As captured prisoners and surrendered civilians, they could guess that their lives would not be good.

All I can say is that the Ming Dynasty at that time was really in decline.

"In 1622, Nurhaci attacked Xiping and entered Guangning, and you, Senior Fan Wencheng, followed him throughout the entire process.

After that, Senior Fan Wencheng, under the guidance of Nurhaci, you participated in the command and planning of matters.

In 1629, Huang Taiji led an army of Manchus and Mongols to attack the Ming Dynasty. At that time, Senior Fan Wencheng, you were still in Huang Taiji's Wenguan, and were called a study official, a civil official, a student, or a scholar, and had no official title.

Although you are a Confucian scholar, you are not the weak and frail Confucian scholar who cannot even tie a chicken." For this reason, Li Wu looked at Fan Wencheng on purpose. Although he had a beard and looked much older, it was not difficult to tell that he was good-looking when he was young. He was not very old, but only in his forties, a middle-aged man.

Moreover, he is tall and doesn't look like a Confucian scholar at all. Instead, he looks more like a military general.

"In this chaotic world, weak and frail people won't survive long," Fan Wencheng said only this, and it was recognized by many people.

That's true, especially Zhou Yu. Although he looks good, he is not a weak scholar.

In troubled times, it is really easy to die without any fighting power. After all, you have to flee all the time, and plagues are particularly frequent. Really, those who can survive in troubled times are ruthless, smart, and extremely lucky people, because most of the stupid and weak people die.

The ancestors in front of the sky also agreed with this statement very much. Many of them were in troubled times, or had survived troubled times.

"That's true," Li Wu nodded in agreement. "Senior Fan Wencheng, you are like a fierce general, and you are not afraid of danger. When you go to war with the army, you charge bravely and are good at using strategies. You are not a reckless man.

He is strong in fighting, smart, and eloquent. This is the kind of minister that many emperors want."

The emperors in front of the sky nodded and said yes, yes, yes. They rare had such ministers who were both civil and military.

When Fan Wencheng heard this, he couldn't help laughing, "Little immortal, please don't praise me so much. There are many people who are better than me." When Fan Wencheng heard the little immortal say that he was both literary and martial, he couldn't help blushing. He was just a little bit good, just a little bit.

"I'm not exaggerating. You are just that amazing. Senior Fan Wencheng, please don't be so modest.

Therefore, he made great contributions and pacified the five cities of Panjiakou, Malanyu, Shantunying, Malanguan and Da'ankou.

When the Ming army besieged Da'ankou, you, Senior Fan Wencheng, personally put on armor and led the artillery and gunners, killing many Ming soldiers. Because of your outstanding military exploits, you, Senior Fan Wencheng, were awarded the hereditary title of guerrilla.

In fact, it can be said that it was very difficult to be an official in the Qing Dynasty, especially for the Han people. Basically, you would not be a high-ranking official. Why? Because you are Han people, and the Qing emperor is naturally wary of you.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand.

In 1631 AD, Huang Taiji attacked the Ming Dynasty again and led an army of to to besiege the Dalinghcheng River.

Senior Fan Wencheng, under the order of Huang Taiji, went to a place on the west mountain of Dalinghcheng River to persuade them to surrender.

At that time, the Ming army was defending the dangerous place to the death, and you rode to the stage alone and earnestly persuaded the defenders to surrender. After hearing this, the defenders stepped down and surrendered." Li Wu looked at Fan Wencheng and his eyes lit up unconsciously. "Senior Fan Wencheng, you really have a good eloquence. You made the other side surrender just by talking without bringing any soldiers. If you could lend me your eloquence, it would be a good idea. I am too stupid." It's another day of envying others for their good eloquence.

Unlike her, she is not good at talking and can't speak. Once she speaks, it will make people angry.

Li Ji looked at Fan Wencheng with admiration. As a military general, it would be great if he could make the enemy surrender just by talking without fighting.

Many military generals in front of the sky curtain looked at the civil officials. These civil officials always looked down on them, the military generals, thinking they were rude and could not speak. They, the civil officials, were eloquent and could talk the most. If they could be like Fan Wencheng and make the enemy surrender as soon as they opened their mouths, they would be willing to call them boss.

The civil officials felt a lot of pressure when they were being watched by the military generals. But just because Fan Wencheng could do it, it didn't mean they could do it too.

Besides, in a war, how can you make people surrender just by talking? They will only surrender if they show the intention to surrender.

The military generals ignored them and said, "Fan Wencheng can do it, so why can't you?" The civil officials didn't want to talk and were depressed, silently blaming Fan Wencheng.

For a time, many civil officials were driven crazy by these military generals. They stared at them with their eyes wide open, wishing they could throw them onto the battlefield and persuade the enemy to surrender with their mouths.

The emperor is the same.

"Can you stop looking at me like that?" Fan Wencheng said weakly. The weirdo was really scared.

"Haha, I'm just curious," Zhou Yu laughed. Li Ji and Li Wu stopped staring at Fan Wencheng. They were indeed curious. It was rare in the world to be able to make the enemy surrender with just words.

Fan Wencheng showed his signature smile and said, "Little Immortal, please continue to talk about my deeds."

"Alright alright.

In 1636, Mr. Fan Wencheng was appointed as the Grand Secretary of the Internal Secretariat, in charge of writing etiquette documents for exchanges with foreign countries.

Moreover, you are increasingly valued by Huang Taiji. Every time Huang Taiji discusses state affairs, he will listen to your opinions, Senior Fan Wencheng.

All the imperial edicts announcing decrees to various countries were written by you, Senior Fan Wencheng.

Senior Fan Wencheng, you are grateful and repay the kindness, working hard and caring about state affairs. You have successively petitioned to abolish the law of collective responsibility and to approve the revision of the official system of ministries and agencies. In short, your power is getting higher and higher, and you are trusted by Huang Taiji. This is also very rare.

In 1643, Huang Taiji died. It was a very chaotic time because everyone wanted the throne. "
