Dolgon thought that he had tied tens of thousands of Han people to the city tower, so the Pingbei army would not dare to bomb the city tower, but he did not expect that things would not go as he thought at all.

"Could it be that Liu Xia doesn't care about his reputation at all?" Dolgon knew that the Han people were dying to save face, and insulting him was worse than killing him.

Who is Liu Xia? He was portrayed as a national hero of the Han people, such as today, almost no one does not know Liu Xia's name. This kind of person is generally very concerned about his reputation, and he can't have even a single stain.

"Come on, go over and have a look." Dolgon looked south in disbelief and decided to go over and see for himself.

The guards next to him hurriedly stopped Dolgon and said, "Don't be a prince!" It's dangerous over there, if you're a prince—"

Dolgon said angrily, "Where is so much nonsense, get out of the way of this king." ”

…………

There is no clear division of the Northwest Expeditionary Division, he is a vague concept, unlike the Shaanxi Chengxuan Political Envoy Division, which has an accurate scope. Northwest, as long as it is northwest, it should basically be regarded as the scope of the northwest line.

Since the settlement of the Yarkand Khanate, the commander of the Northwest Xingdu Division sent Liu Dazhuang to recuperate for a period of time, and sent a letter to the Dzungar Khanate in the north, asking the Dzungar Khanate to surrender.

Although the Nazungar Khanate knew that they were weak and could not compete with the Northern Army, they also had their own ideas, so they did not surrender, but began to mobilize their subjects in the Khan to prepare for a big war.

"Even if you can't beat it, it's a big deal to run, anyway, the world is big, and you Han people can't find us."

That's what the Great Khan of the Zungar Khanate thought, as the Zungar Khanate in Central Asia, their vision was much farther than that of the Han people in East Asia, they had seen West Asia, Europe and so on. They knew that the land between heaven and earth was vast, so vast that the Han people could not imagine it at all. During the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu were beaten by the Han people and fled all the way to Europe, and he was also thinking that if he couldn't beat it, he would take the original route of the Huns.

Liu Dazhuang originally thought that the Dzungar Khanate would surrender directly when he saw that he had easily destroyed the Yarkand Khanate, but things were beyond his imagination, since things had developed to such a point, then if they didn't fight, people thought that their Pingbei Army was afraid of the Dzungar Khanate.

The Great Khan of the Dzungar Khanate was Batur, and they were also Mongols to be precise, and they were called Waspur during the Ming Dynasty. The combat effectiveness is not weak, but the number of troops is not large, only about 10,000 people. The commander of the Northwest Xingdu made Liu Dazhuang's troops reach more than 40,000 people, plus the local garrisons of the various states assigned here before, the strength can reach about 70,000 or 80,000.

The battle between the Pingbei Army and the Dzungar Khanate was on the verge of breaking out, and the two sides sent 5,000 troops to fight for the first time.

With the overwhelming artillery support of the Pingbei Army, the Dzungar Khanate ended in defeat, and at the same time, the Great Khan of the Dzungar Khanate understood that the Pingbei Army was able to successfully destroy the neighboring Yarkand Khanate by relying on absolute strength.

The territory of the original Yarkand Khanate has not been completely digested now, but it is basically the same. So Luoyang began to send some officials, and let some local celebrities serve as deputies, which is conducive to rule. In order to rule the surrounding areas of Hami more steadily, Liu Xia printed tens of thousands of textbooks and took the lead in popularizing education there from an early age, so that they could begin to know Chinese characters when they were still children.

After destroying the Yarkand Khanate, he also captured a lot of rebels, as well as 20,000 or 30,000 Tatar men from Qinghai and Mongolia, Liu Xia didn't want to kill too many people, so he let them start building the railway, so the speed of railway construction became very fast. The railway from Luoyang to Xi'an had already been repaired, and then after the addition of tens of thousands of people, the railway began to be repaired to Lanzhou. According to Liu Xia's plan, the railway should be built to Hami and to the westernmost section of the country.

Historically, most dynasties have not been very stable in their rule over the Western Regions, because they are too far away to control. Once the national strength of the Central Plains Empire weakened a little, some small countries in the Western Regions began to turn upside down. Because of the long distance, the weakened Central Plains Empire did not have time to deal with them. But once the railroad is built, then it will be able to absolutely control the Western Regions.

The railway from Luoyang to Jiaozhou is still a Yellow River bridge, and the Yellow River Bridge has not yet started construction, as long as they have never built such a large bridge, although a year has passed, but it is still being explored and designed.

The railway from Luoyang to Xinyang Prefecture has now been built to Xuzhou, and the speed is very fast. What Liu Xia lacks most now is a large number of laborers, and with tens of thousands of laborers, everything can be built very quickly. Of course, the first thing is to ensure the production of steel.

In order to be able to build the railway as soon as possible, the steel used in the construction of ironclad ships is now also requisitioned, and for Liu Xia, the most important thing now is not the navy, but the control of the entire land under heaven.

Outside the city of Beijing, artillery bombarded intensively, and the city collapsed from time to time, from which bursts of screams were constantly heard. The Qing troops in the city did not expect the Pingbei army to bomb them, so they were completely unprepared, and at the same time that those Tartars were killed, many Han people were also killed.

For the first gap, Li Wen did not attack, and the more than 1,000 Han people were safe and sound. But all the other Han Chinese on the city wall suffered, and at the moment the city fell, countless people were buried in the ruins.

"The Ming army is crazy! The Ming army is crazy! ”

The Tartars looked at the Han people who rushed over in disbelief, some of them pulled a Han as a hostage, signaling the Pingbei army not to come, but the Pingbei soldiers ignored him at all, cut off his neck with a knife, and the Han who was taken as a hostage was also rescued.

Li Wen, these Han people, did not intend to let them live, and the less people knew about this matter, the better. The 1,000 people who blocked the gap at the beginning are known all over the world, but the 10,000 Han people in the city don't know much.

"Kill!"

On the way, before Dolgon had reached half the distance, a guard hurriedly ran over, embarrassed, and said anxiously: "The prince is not good, the Pingbei army is coming!" ”

"Wang Ye Ping's Northern Army has come in, Wang Ye is leaving!"

"Quickly cover the prince's departure!"

The city of Beijing was breached, and Dolgon's muscles burst out, clenching his fists, he knew that the city of Beijing could not be defended. Now while the enemy has not completely occupied the city, he must leave first.

Basically, there were not many reinforcements from Dolgon, and the 10,000 Mongol cavalry who had finally arrived would also go now. Beijing is isolated.

In desperation, Dorgon ordered: "The other princes who rule Belle, go!" ”

A word was uttered by Dolgon with the greatest force, and he understood that once he gave up Beijing, it would be impossible to occupy it again.

The princes and nobles in the city have already prepared, and even many have fled. This annoyed Dolgon. But these are extraordinary times, and Dorgon doesn't care so much anymore.

The soldiers and horses in the city plus the previous reinforcements were only 50,000 people, and more than 10,000 people were killed in the previous battles, and now the city has been breached, and more than 10,000 people are missing. In other words, there are only three men in Dolgon's hands now.

With these 30,000 soldiers, Dolgon unwillingly glanced at the golden palace, and said coldly: "Let's go!" ”

"Set a fire, you can't leave it to them."

With that, Dorgon rode away.

One of the eunuchs glanced at the palace, sighed, said a few words to a dozen soldiers, and then hurried after Dolgon.

When they had left the north gate and ran for two hours, Dolgon turned to look at the city of Beijing from afar, and saw wisps of black smoke rising into the sky, and even from so far away, they could still see the huge fire.
