Chapter 841: The Great Qing Dynasty is dead
On the eighth day of the third month of the eighth year of Tianwu, the battle of Jishan, the Ming army's southern army defeated the last line of defense of the Qing court and continued to move north.
On March 12, the Southern Route Army crossed the Han River and arrived in Shengjing, and the imperial drive of the Emperor Tai of the Ming Dynasty appeared outside the capital of the Qing Dynasty.
Because the Han River passed through Shengjing and was more than two miles wide, the Qing court ordered the removal of all the boats in the vicinity, so it took several days for the Southern Route Army to cross the river alone.
The precious time of these few days gave Mao Yuanyi great hope, and the armies of the north and south arrived at Shengjing City almost one after the other to complete the division.
Shengjing, the capital of the Qing Dynasty, was located in the middle of the Korean Peninsula, formerly known as Seoul, and was originally the capital of Lee's Joseon, but since it was occupied by Dolgon in the thirteenth year of Chongzhen, it was renamed Shengjing.
In the past few decades, Seoul has been plagued by many disasters.
In the twentieth year of Wanli, Toyotomi Hideyoshi led the Japanese army to capture Seoul, and the king of Joseon fled to the Yalu River and asked for refuge in the Ming Dynasty.
After the Japanese army burned the palace, Sheji, government office, city gate and palace treasures, classics, cultural relics and rituals in the palace, and was defeated by the Ming army, the Japanese army withdrew its troops to the south and slaughtered the people in the city before leaving.
After the Korean War, Seoul experienced two invasions by the Eight Banners Army under the leadership of Huang Taiji, and the Koreans called Dingmao and Bingzi Ran.
After the Qing army captured Seoul, Huang Taiji strictly ordered not to invade the people in the city, but when the Eight Banners Army withdrew, they plundered a large number of people, gold, silver, and livestock.
In order to seek more land and resources, Dolgon said that in order to seek more land and resources, he attacked Seoul again, destroyed Lee's Joseon, captured many Korean young men as slaves, and finally set the capital of the Qing Dynasty in Seoul.
After more than ten years of development, the population of Seoul has reached more than 200,000, but most of the people of the Han Eight Banners, Manchu Eight Banners, and Mongolian Eight Banners, as well as some Korean flags and Dongying banners, most of the original Korean aborigines were driven out of the city by the Qing court.
On the southern horizon outside Shengjing City, a vast sea of flags appeared, and the huge infantry army of the Southern Route Army came neatly, like a castle.
To the north and west, groups of Ming cavalry roared in, and more and more cavalry rushed behind.
In the end, the earth shook violently, a horse's hooves rattled in the heavens and the earth, and a sea of red flags galloped over, and its banners were full of black cavalry, which was the army of the North Road led by Mao Yuanyi.
The array of the Ming army raised a large cloud of smoke and dust, and in the looming of smoke and dust, the neat and orderly footsteps resounded, and the people in Pyongyang were panicked.
In the sound of "ten thousand victories", the north and south armies converged, and the battle flags of each army were held high, especially the Chinese army dragon in the middle of the emperor's royal car, which was the most eye-catching.
Soon, the three armies of the Ming army converged and set up a formation under Shengjing City.
"Step on Shengjing!"
"Daming Wansheng!"
"Wan Sheng!"
All the soldiers of the Ming army held their weapons and cheered under the city, and the sound of more than 100,000 people was like rolling thunder, shaking the sky.
In the midst of the cheers, Emperor Taishang Zhu Youzhen, Xiangguo Gong Cao Bianjiao, Zhenbei Hou Mao Yuanyi, Anliao Hou Zhu Youneng and others came to meet in front of the military formation.
The Emperor Taishang rode his horse and walked out a few steps, looking at the head of Shengjing City from afar, and suddenly was full of pride, and sighed in his heart: "A group of garbage, not a single one can fight!" ”
The Ming army's South Road army killed all the way, except for Wu Sangui, who still had a little ability to resist, the rest of the defenders around the country were basically crushed at the touch of a button, and the crying father who was beaten called his mother.
Originally, the Emperor Taishang wanted to face Hong Chengchou and scold to death this second-minister dog traitor in front of the battle, but he never met it.
I heard that the traitor Hong deliberately avoided the Ming army, and he didn't know where he died, which made the emperor quite unhappy.
Among the generals, Zhu Youneng was the most active, and after he saluted the Emperor Taishang, he was the first to jump out and ask for battle: "The last general is willing to lead the northern army to take the lead in attacking the city, and set foot on the Tartar lair!" ”
The Emperor nodded slightly, deeply pleased with his heroic appearance, but did not speak.
Because of the military operation, it is not his turn to call the shots.
The commander of the Ming army, Cao Bianjiao, waved his hand and said, "Don't rush first!" ”
"Yes!"
Zhu Youneng obediently retreated, he was still quite jealous of Cao Bianjiao.
Back then, Cao Bianjiao dared to enter the camp of the Eight Banners Army and attack the imperial camp of Huang Taiji.......
After a while, a Chinese soldier rode to the city without holding a flag at night, and shouted at the defenders of the city: "The soldiers of the Great Tomorrow are coming, and the king of the Qing Dynasty will quickly kowtow to the city and surrender!" ”
After a few warnings at night, the Ming army under the city was silent for a moment, and once again erupted in overwhelming shouts.
The Ming army was so powerful that the Qing soldiers defending the city did not change their color, and several Zhang Jing hurriedly went to the palace to report the situation.
Shengjing, which was originally slightly more prosperous, is now in a huge panic, and the streets are extremely quiet and cold.
In the Shengjing Palace, the Empress Dowager Zhuang and the little emperor of Shunzhi were trembling in the ideological and political hall.
Empress Dowager Zhuang no longer has the calm demeanor she usually has, and some only have panicked thoughts and her heart is like ashes.
His uncle's regent, Zilharang, was killed in battle, and the elite of the Eight Banners Army was lost, and the imperial father, the regent Hong Chengchou, fled with the Han army flag, and no one took their mother and son with them.
In the hall, some Manchu and Han ministers quarreled fiercely, and their faces were red.
There are also some people who look gloomy and keep silent, not knowing if they are thinking about the road ahead in their hearts.
"Step on Shengjing! Daming Wansheng! ”
The rolling shouts entered the Ideological and Political Palace, which made the originally noisy hall instantly quiet, and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were all frightened.
Empress Dowager Zhuang Bumu Butai looked at the courtiers below, and Shunzhi, who was sitting silently beside her, and sighed in her heart.
Fu Lin was only fifteen years old, but he had great ambitions, and he wanted to restore the Qing Dynasty and dominate the world.
However, at this moment, when he heard the terrifying shouts of the Ming army, he couldn't stand up anymore, and honestly acted as a coward, and the frightened look on his face couldn't be concealed.
I raised my head and said with some excitement: "Queen Mother, Emperor, what should I do now?" You have to figure it out! ”
In the past, Ning Wan and I would never dare to look up at the Queen Mother, but since Hong Chengchou went south, this old lady was in trouble, and he has become more and more bold.
Bumu Butai glanced at him coldly and said, "What should I do?" You ask me what to do with a woman's house? ”
She raised her willow eyebrows, blushed and said as if she was resentful: "At the beginning, you bowed down to Hong Chengchou, and you were almost commensurate with the emperor, he led tens of thousands of Han army flags south to defend against the enemy, why did the Ming army come so quickly?" But you're here asking me what to do, and I want to ask you! ”
Ning Wan's face was red when I was told by Bumu Butai, and I didn't care about the Queen Mother's little pink face, so I snorted angrily, and threw my big sleeves away.
Seeing this, the other ministers also followed, obviously not wanting to waste time here, and it was better to find a way out if they had time.
Facing the empty ideological and political hall, the little emperor of Shunzhi's face turned pale, the ministers were gone, and the Qing Dynasty had already existed in name only.......
Bu Mu Butai's delicate body trembled, her desperate eyes gradually firmed, and she deeply realized that she had to rely on herself for everything.......
