Chapter 583: Qianlong ran away
In the memory of the young Chang Bao, the first days of the fight were always excellent, and he was deeply nostalgic.
His original surname was Niu Hulu, born in Manchuria Zhenghongqi, his father Niu Hulu Ororshan was still a hereditary third-class light car captain, because his uncle Ahatton died heroically when he followed the Kangxi Emperor to Dzungaria, so the young Chang Bao was also specially awarded as a first-class cloud cavalry captain, and his life was naturally quite comfortable.
If history will continue to follow the usual trajectory, this child of the Eight Banners, who has been blessed since birth, will have a very good life in the future, he will follow the Qianlong Emperor all the way down to Fujian, and then become the deputy commander of soldiers and horses in Fujian, and died of illness in the 25th year of Qianlong's tenure in Fujian, and the real peak of his life is that he gave birth to a son, this son is called Heshen.
Of course, whether there will be the name Heshen in the future or not, that's another matter.
It's just that for today's Chang Bao, he will never have the opportunity to know all this, because since the fifty-ninth year of Kangxi, history has drawn a strange circle, and this circle is not only the wise and martial Kangxi and Yongzheng, but also his small first-class cloud cavalry captain Chang Bao.
When the Fu Han army marched into Beijing, the fate of the young Chang Bao has been changed, he watched the gradual collapse of the Qing Dynasty, and followed his parents all the way to North Korea and Yunchun, and this road to Chang Bao brought the feeling that the Qing Dynasty was about to end, and everything that Mr. taught in the past seemed to change nothing.
When he arrived in Yunchun, his father Oroershan and Eniang were originally still by his side, but later as the Russians built Vladivostok, they were requisitioned in order to be able to get food for life, and finally died of exhaustion in Vladivostok, leaving Chang Bao and his seven-year-old brother Haiyin.
For Chang Bao, who has become an orphan, his biggest dream is to live with his younger brother Haiyin.
"I won't give up Haiyin, you guys go first!"
The stubborn Chang Bao continued to push the small cart, he couldn't just abandon Haiyin, otherwise even if there was no chasing soldiers from the Fu Han army, it would be impossible for the little Haiyin to continue to live.
Seeing that Chang Bao was unwilling to give up his younger brother, the middle-aged man didn't say anything, just shook his head, and then took out half of the cold steamed bun from his arms, put it on the small cart, and then buried his head and left quickly.
Everyone marched all the way, but Chang Bao and some of the old, weak, sick and disabled were too slow after all, so they were slowly left at the end, seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, Chang Bao was a little anxious, but there was nothing he could do, after all, he was always only a half-grown child, and it was not easy to take his younger brother all the way here.
Just as he continued to push the cart hard, a small sound came from behind him, and suddenly the faces of the remaining people changed, and they began to run forward as desperately as possible, and Chang Bao also began to feel anxious when he saw this, he no longer wanted to save any physical strength, and pushed the small cart frantically and slowly moved forward from the cold ground, however, it was already too late.
The voices behind them are getting closer and clearer, and their figures are gradually appearing in everyone's sight, it is a long cavalry, they are wearing thick cotton clothes, there is a layer of armor on them, and in their hands are holding muskets and spears, which are obviously the clothes of the cavalry of the Fu Han army.
Chang Bao lost all his strength in an instant, he suddenly slipped to his knees on the ground, holding his younger brother Haiyin, but his face was dead, he didn't even have the mood to cry at all, he just muttered in a low voice: "It's good to die, you don't have to suffer if you die...... Haiyin, we can go see Ama and Eniang......"
Chang Bao closed his eyes as he spoke, he was not afraid of death, but just of pain.
After a long time, Chang Bao's imaginary knife or shot never came, but a cavalry officer of the Fu Han Army rode in on horseback and began to shout: "Those who surrender will not die, as long as you do not resist, we will not kill you!" ”
After the officer shouted loudly, he came to Chang Bao again, and said softly: "Okay, don't be afraid, you are already our prisoner, and our Fu Han army will never kill prisoners indiscriminately, and in the future it will be nothing more than sending you to repair roads, but looking at your physique, I am afraid that you will have to raise it for a while....."
"Build roads?"
Chang Bao was silent for a while before asking in a low voice, "Can that save my brother?" Please be gracious! ”
The officer grinned and said, "As long as you are still a laborer, we will save you, and I tell you, Your Majesty is kind-hearted, as long as you behave well, you only need to serve for ten years, you can become a civilian, and you can also get your own land, and if you are lucky, you can marry a big fat daughter-in-law......."
In the final analysis, many officers in the Fu Han Army have not fought with the Eight Banners, and even if they have fought, they are the one who has won, and they do not have too much hatred for the Eight Banners, and they will not be too embarrassed for a small Tartar like Chang Bao, after all, they will be needed for road construction in the future.....
Chang Bao nodded a little ignorantly, if it weren't for the change in the situation, he would still be the first-class cloud cavalry captain now, but I'm afraid that Ama has already told him about a family affair, maybe even the baby has been born, but it is not easy to survive now, but he doesn't want to think about those things anymore.
"My lord, I'm willing to go with you!"
.......
At the head of Yunchun City, Emperor Qianlong stood on it wearing a black coat, looking at the steady stream of bannermen under the city, but he couldn't help but bring out a wry smile on his face.
They were thinking about how to escape from Yunchun, but there were still so many people thinking about how to enter Yunchun.
Just three days ago, Count Sara Gula secretly came to Yunchun with his guards, intending to coerce Emperor Qianlong to Vladivostok, but Zhang Tingyu led the Eight Banners soldiers in the city to force Sara Vula and his party to retreat.
Count Sara Tura, who suffered such a sullen loss, was naturally unwilling to stop there, but the speed of the Fu Han army's march was faster than he imagined, so before he could mobilize his troops to snatch Qianlong, the Fu Han army had already begun to march towards Yunchun.
At this juncture, Sara also understood that if he wanted to take away Emperor Qianlong, the risk he needed to take was too great, and even if he took Qianlong away, he was afraid that it would be difficult to escape the pursuit of the Fu Han army, so he could only choose to give up at the moment, and directly withdrew to Vladivostok with his guards.
Although he was finally out of the control of the Russians, Qianlong did not have the slightest joy in his heart, just like when he chose to take refuge with the Russians, any choice he made would bear the consequences accordingly, even now.
I just hope this time it's the right choice......
Zhang Tingyu stood beside him, but said softly: "Your Majesty, we have to get out of here quickly, otherwise when the Fu Han army comes up completely, we won't be able to leave, but we must be careful about the rivers and mountains of the Qing Dynasty!" ”
"I understand, I just want to see my people again."
The young Qianlong Emperor suddenly felt an unspeakable sadness in his heart, this sadness only appeared last time when the news of Emperor Ama Yongzheng's death in battle came, but now he felt this feeling deeply again.
"Maybe Amma chooses to die on the battlefield than to continue to steal his life!"
Of course, these words must not be spoken, because even Emperor Qianlong is actually not willing to die like this, he has not really given up on himself, maybe just like Zhang Tingyu said, everything will change with the times, and there may be a chance at that time, at least stronger than now.
Thinking of this, Emperor Qianlong never looked at the banner people under the city anymore, and asked as he walked down the city: "Master Zhang, has our itinerary been arranged?" ”
"Please rest assured that the minion has been arranged, let's leave Yunchun in disguise immediately, go to Tulazi to take a boat south, and then the slave will pretend to be a fur dealer, named Zhang Liu, and have to wronged the emperor Jin Si, the little servant who pretended to be a minion, and followed the slave to come to Yunchun to do fur trading with the Russians, what does the emperor think?"
Zhang Tingyu is worthy of being a university scholar, and the arrangements are not leaky, and even the identity information of the two when they flee has been prepared, so that even if they meet the Fu Han army, they will not be caught red-handed.
Emperor Qianlong naturally didn't understand this, but he also had his own little cleverness, but at the moment he lowered his eyebrows and said: "Master Zhang, we are Jin Si in the back, but we are not allowed to call the emperor again." ”
"Hey, the emperor can kill the minions! Let's go! ”
Zhang Tingyu was not ambiguous at the moment, but the two of them didn't even pay attention to the other banner ministers, and directly changed their clothes and took the salute, which was full of food and clothing, and the more valuable gold and silver were all kept close to their bodies, in order to facilitate the two of them to leave here, Zhang Tingyu also specially got a carriage, on which sat two guards, and they didn't bring guns at all, but just carried two waist knives, which was considered self-defense.
Emperor Qianlong also packed up some of his valuable things, such as the jade seal of the country and a few square seals, but before leaving, he thought about it carefully, took the delicate handcuffs, and some gunpowder bullets, tucked them around his waist, looked at the house where he lived with a complicated expression, and then left here.
Flames burned in the courtyard, and the flames greedily devoured everything, and also devoured everyone's illusions of the Qing Dynasty.
Just a few hours after a few people left Yunchun, the army of the Fuhan Army also came to the city of Yunchun, almost just a few bullets, and the remaining Eight Banners soldiers who were still resisting in the city finally played the banner of surrender and chose to surrender to the Fuhan army, and the entire Yunchun was officially changed hands.
The princes and ministers of the Eight Banners lined up and walked out of Yunchun, and then sat in the prisoner car under the supervision of the soldiers of the Fu Han Army, and the other Eight Banner soldiers and banner people also became prisoners of the Fu Han Army, although they were not forcibly relocated to the south of the Tumen River, but in the future, they will also be under the care of the Fu Han Army.
Of course, as the most important figures, Qianlong and Zhang Tingyu disappeared, and the Fu Han army only found two blackened corpses in Qianlong's house that had been burned down, although the body size and bones were about the same age, but no one dared to claim that this was Qianlong and Zhang Tingyu.
As Qian Ying, who led the army to conquer Yunchun, was naturally very dissatisfied, he found many captured Qianlong close ministers, and then asked them one by one, but the final answer was very disappointing, most people's attitude was that they didn't know, and only a few people insisted that it was Qianlong.
In the face of such a result, Qian Ying naturally did not dare to report his merits indiscriminately, on the one hand, he sent someone to deliver the news to Ning Zuyi, the commander of the army, on the other hand, he continued to blockade Yunchun City, and closely searched for men suspected of Qianlong and Zhang Tingyu in the city, in addition to sending many cavalry sentry teams to search in the direction of possible exit from the city to ensure that Qianlong's traces could be obtained.
You must know that it is a great achievement to be able to catch the emperor of the enemy country, if Qian Ying can get this credit, not to mention entering the Privy Council as a privy deputy envoy, the title alone can at least be promoted to the level of the founding marquis!
Of course, for the other soldiers of the Fu Han Army in the city, this is also a good opportunity to be able to ascend to the sky in one day, which can be called the biggest result of the capture of Yunchun City, so everyone is searching regardless of rest, but a small Yunchun City has almost been turned upside down, but at this point there is still nothing.
"Damn, it's really evil, I finally boiled a pot of duck, and I really let it fly away!"
Qian Ying saw that Qianlong really ran away, and he was a little annoyed in his heart, but he had already searched inside and out, and the cavalry outside the city did not get any useful news, so he could only choose to give up, but for Qian Ying himself, this kind of unwillingness was like an ant crawling in his heart, but he couldn't bear it anymore.
Of course, when Ning Zuyi crossed the river and came to Yunchun, he also lamented the same as Qian Ying, this is one step away, one step away from catching the biggest result, but I didn't expect that the sky did not obey people's wishes, but they made them miss it.
And Ning Zuyi and Qian Ying, who were full of resentment, also needed a vent channel at the moment, so they led the army in the direction of Vladivostok with a thunderous momentum, and all the Russian outposts along the way were either empty or directly uprooted, and the army continued to shrink the arc of the encirclement and slowly approached Vladivostok.
When the time entered November, when the Fu Han army completely cleared the Russian forces on the periphery, and all the Russian troops that needed to be solved also retreated to Vladivostok, they defended according to the fortress, but they turned themselves into a copper pea that could not be smashed by a hammer, and people were reluctant to launch a strong attack when they looked at it.
After all, the sacrifice required to besiege a strong fortification with Vauban defense system was not ordinary, and for the Fu Han army, such an enemy was also the first time to see it.
