After arranging his own funeral, the Shunzhi Emperor Fulin, the queen of the Qing Dynasty with tears in his eyes, accompanied by his confidants and generals such as Sony, Suke Saha, Bambulshan, and Bai Yintu, went down to the coal mountain fortress.

The 2,500 soldiers of the Manchurian Forward Battalion, Fulin's most henchman, have long been mobilized, and they have been on guard all the way at the foot of Coal Mountain, and the cordon starts from Coal Mountain, goes out of Bei'anmen, goes up to Gulou and goes down the street, turns on the inclined street, and then turns on the Babukou Hutong near the Wengcheng of Deshengmen, and finally pulls all the way to the outside of the Thousand Buddha Temple. Five steps and one post, ten steps and one sentry, all of them are fully armed Manchurian warriors with helmets and armor.

Although the era of Manchurian scenery has passed, no one can deny that the individual combat effectiveness of this group of Manchurian second and third generations is still strong. If there is a long street melee, even the most elite Ming infantry is not necessarily their opponent!

In addition to the elite soldiers arranged along the streets, Sukh Saha, Baiyintu and Bambulshan also selected 300 warriors to serve as the Baya soldiers of Fulin, escorting the Qing Emperor and heading towards the Thousand Buddha Temple, which had been guarded by layers early in the morning.

It was precisely because Fu Lin was heavily guarded on the way to Thousand Buddha Mountain after coming down the mountain, so Shang Kexi, Kong Tingxun, Shang Zhixin and others did not dare to make a rash move.

After all, there are still many traitors in Beijing who are not on the "amnesty list", such as Geng Zhongming, Shen Yongxing, Gang Atai, Fan Chengyin, Chen Jin, Ma Degong, Sun Youguang and others, all of whom control part of the army (except for Geng Zhongming, the others are all generals of the Beijing Protector Army led by Suke Saha). If Shang Kexi and Kong Tingxun acted rashly, then a bloody battle would be indispensable...... When the time comes, don't fail to catch Fulin, but fold yourself in.

Therefore, when Fulin went down the mountain to the Thousand Buddha Temple, Shang Kexi took the holy decree issued by Fulin to transfer troops out of Andingmen to set up a formation-needless to say, most of the troops who drove out of the city were controlled by Geng Zhongming, Shen Yongxing, Gang Atai, Fan Chengyin, Chen Jin, Ma Degong, Sun Youguang and others...... And 2,000 of the 2,500 cavalry of the 2,500 forward battalion cavalry directly belonging to Fulin, after completing the task of escorting Fulin into the Thousand Buddha Temple, will also drive out of Beijing City and be deployed under the five prismatic outgoing forts.

The pre-booked battlefield is between the north moat of Beijing and the north of the earth city, and the distance between the north moat and the north earth city is about six miles, not too wide and not too narrow, so there are not too many troops.

The Qing army had five large and small forts in the north of the city, and the fortresses were all equipped with Hongyi cannons and Furang machine guns, which could cover the Qing troops who went out of the city to fight.

The Ming army on the opposite side also relied on the ruins of Beitucheng (Beitucheng is not a continuous city wall, but intermittent and collapsed in many places) to build many fortresses and erect artillery.

So both armies on this battlefield had to face the enemy's condescending firepower, and they both seemed to be quite patient and not at all eager to fight. After entering the battlefield, they all started digging trenches, stacking sandbags, and building simple fortifications.

The artillery of both sides began to fire shells, disrupting the process of local formation and fortifications.

The rumbling cannon began to sound in the north of Beijing City!

......

Boom Boom Boom ......

When the thunderous roar of artillery reached the Thousand Buddha Temple, Fulin had already taken off the armor of the Ming Emperor, changed into a monk's robe, and sat on the futon, and the monk Tongxiu of Yulin was holding a razor in his hand and was shaving his head!

Don't get me wrong, Fulin is not going to become a monk through Hongchen, but to run away with makeup...... Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood!

This escape was planned by Sony, and preparations began a few months ago, and Fulin's henchmen Suo Etu, Nalan Mingzhu, Gao Sai and others had already taken some of the most reliable two Yellow Flag warriors out of Beijing City with a large pile of gold and silver treasures, and found a fairly reliable retreat for Fulin.

The secret passage out of the city has also been excavated a long time ago, and the entrance to the secret passage is in the Thousand Buddha Temple.

After exiting the city through the secret tunnel, they will sneak west along the dry course of the old abandoned moat (a new moat was dug because five new ones were built outside the northern city). And at the confluence of the old moat and the long river (which has been blocked), several speedboats have been prepared......

Sony, Sukh Saha, Bambulshan, Bai Yintu and others have all changed into monks' robes, shaved off their braids, and all of them look like Shaolin warrior monks, carrying a Pu knife on their backs, carrying a magic weapon that walks the rivers and lakes - a flintlock pistol!

There are also dozens of fierce monks, everyone has a big knife on their backs, a musket in their hands, they are very powerful when they look at it, if there are really any masters in the rivers and lakes, they will not be able to beat them.

At this time, Yulin Tongxiu had already put away the razor and folded his hands: "Your Majesty, ...... shaved"

"Don't call the emperor ......" Shunzhi sighed, "Let's make a name!" ”

"Your Majesty," Yulin Tongxiu said, "There is a blessing in your name, why don't you keep it and change it?" ”

"Change a word?" Fulin asked, "Change what?" ”

"How about changing a special word?" Yulin Tongxiu said, "You are not an ordinary Buddhist person, and it is most appropriate to use special words." ”

"Monk Ford?" Fulin thought for a moment, "Good! That's it......" he looked back at a bunch of monks, "I will be called me in the future, and I will be called Zen Master Ford, a poor monk!" ”

Sha Erhuda, the deputy commander of the forward battalion who led people to guard the Thousand Buddha Temple, hurriedly walked in at this time, and saw Fu Lin, who had already pretended to be a monk, his nose was sore, and he squeezed out a few tears.

"Shar Huda, what's wrong?" Fu Lin also saw him.

"Your Majesty......," Sha Erhuda wiped away his tears, "The servants received a secret report that Shang Zhixin and Shang Zhixiao had gathered 3,000 armor soldiers in the city of Deshengmen this morning, and they were all the henchmen of the Shang family and the Kong family...... Now these 3,000 people did not go out of the city to line up, but went up the diagonal street and were coming to the eight-step entrance! ”

"What?" Fu Lin took a breath, "They're going to ......"

The noisy and noisy sound came in like a sea wave at this time, Fu Lin held his breath and listened attentively, vaguely as if someone was shouting loudly: "The enemy is in the Thousand Buddha Temple!" The enemy is in the Thousand Buddha Temple......"

"They're the opposite!" Sony suddenly became nervous, "Your Majesty, let's go!" ”

Sha Erhuda knelt down: "Your Majesty, run quickly, the slave will take someone to resist it......"

Fu Lin sighed, folded his hands, and recited the Buddha's name: "The fate of the poor monk and Beijing City is over...... Go, go, Sony, lead the way! Sukh Saha, you are in charge of the broken queen!

Shar Huda, you have to take care too...... Resist for a moment and escape! ”

With that, Fu Lin followed Sonny to the back of a Buddha statue, which was the entrance to the secret passage.

Sukh Saha took the torch from a "Baturu monk" dressed like him!

The buildings in the Thousand Buddha Temple have long been filled with firewood and grass, and once they are lit, it will be a raging fire......

When the fire of the Thousand Buddha Temple was ignited, the 3,000 armor soldiers commanded by Shang Zhixin and Shang Zhixiao had broken through the defenders of Sha'er Huda at the eight-step entrance with the support of artillery - these Manchurian warriors were not stupid, they also knew that the general trend had gone, and now they saw the Shang family army defecting, so they naturally had no will to fight, and before Sha Erhuda came out of the Thousand Buddha Temple to organize the troops, they had already scattered and ran away, and they did not form a team.

Just when the two brothers of the Shang family were ecstatic, they saw the Thousand Buddha Temple burning......

"Big brother, big brother...... The Thousand Buddhas Temple is on fire! ”

Shang Zhixin, who was commanding the troops to attack, was also shocked when he heard Shang Zhixiao shouting loudly, and hurriedly looked up, and at a glance, his face suddenly changed greatly.

The Thousand Buddha Temple is already drowning in a raging fire!

"What, why did it burn?"

"Big brother, it must be Fu Lin who set himself on fire......

"How is this good?" Shang Zhixin was already a little confused, and so was Fulin...... What are you going to die for? Isn't it good to let yourself be caught alive? Emperor Zhu still wants to make you a violator!

Even if you want to die, you can jump off a building, hang yourself, wipe your neck, drink poisonous wine, and cut your belly...... Why do you have to self-immolate? The corpse is about to be burned, what will you do to report to Emperor Zhu?
