In the end, some of the people in Liaoyang City fled first, and the other part of the lucky ones continued to stay in the city, but in the afternoon, when the follow-up troops of the Model Army began to appear, those who remained in the city did not care about anything, opened the city gates, and fled into the distance.

Zheng Sen was not in a hurry to chase after them, he knew that these people had limited supplies and would not be able to run far at all.

"'Those who are suitable for a hundred miles will have food, and those who are suitable for thousands of miles will gather food in March.'" They weren't going on an outing, and they didn't have much preparation at all, and they didn't carry much stuff, so they wouldn't have been able to run far without us chasing them. Looking at the Qing army who fled in a hurry and the old and weak Jianxuan who followed them, Zheng Sen shook his head and said.

A cavalryman beside Zheng Sen gritted his teeth and said: "When Jianxuan rebelled and occupied Liaodong, the Han people in Liaodong were not like this? Shizi, I heard my father say that there were originally more than 20 people in my family, who fled from Quang Ninh to enter the customs, and when they finally entered the customs, my father was the only one left. Now it's their turn, hehe, they also have today! This is really 'good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and the way of heaven is good reincarnation.' If you don't believe it, look up, who the sky spares you! ’”

"Shizi, we have a pit next to Zhuangzi in Luzon, and there has been a shortage of manpower in it. I've heard that whether it's Taiwan, Qiongzhou, or Luzon, there is a shortage of manpower in a large number of mines. Now that there are so many people here, how bad it is to die on the road in vain. Shizi, if we don't make some effort to send them to those mines, it can be regarded as 'God has the virtue of a good life'." The other horseman laughed.

As soon as these words came out, the cavalry around them all laughed, even the cavalry who gritted his teeth and was full of grief and anger just now.

"Ah Fu is right, God has the virtue of a good life! But Shizi, let's let them run first, and when they get tired of running, we can save some effort by catching them again. Back then, they asked Hermes-Epitek to coat them, and now it's their turn to give us ......," another guard laughed.

……

Two days later, the vanguard of the Model Army arrived at the city of Shenyang, which by this time had become an empty city. When the Model Army entered the city, they found that the city was full of houses with wide open doors, and the corpses of those who had fallen in their homes or on the road. Apparently, there was a time when the city was completely out of order, and looting was rampant, and these people were killed in the looting. This is almost an inevitable thing, and anyone may have food and materials that can support their family to escape to Hetuara in one go, and in the case of loss of order, robbing others will naturally become an inevitable result.

As for the imperial palace of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the gate was also open at this time. It was empty, and naturally there was not a single living person except the corpse. All kinds of valuable things in the palace, anything that is easy to carry has naturally been looted.

Countless banner men almost reenacted the experience of Hermes-epitek in Liaodong at this time, they left everything behind, relied on the burden they carried, and the little things they pushed the wheelbarrow, dragging their families and mouths blindly fleeing towards the north. The entire Eight Banners system also completely collapsed, and the Eight Banners, an organization that was forcibly pinched by Nurhachi, completely disintegrated at this time. On the way to the north, because of the lack of supplies, people plundered and killed each other, even if they were people of the same flag. In addition, poor dietary conditions have led to more epidemics and deaths.

In order to prevent more bannermen from needlessly dying on the way to escape, so as to reduce the number of high-quality laborers that can be provided to the various mines, (the prisoners of the Model Army, except for some special and important personnel, will be handed over to an enterprise called the "Guanghua Labor Service Company", which belongs to the logistics department of the Model Army, and then it will classify these prisoners. If they are Han Chinese, they are generally transferred to Taiwan, Luzon and even other parts of Southeast Asia to work on some infrastructure construction. After two years of work, they can get a piece of land and become a free immigrant. But if they are captives of other peoples, the situation will be very different, they will be used as a strong labor force, and they will be leased by the company to some other enterprises. The rent demanded by Guanghua Company was not low, but the death mortgage was not high. In a sense, it's encouraging them to rent their businesses and use them to death. For this reason, this kind of strong labor force is quite popular in some high-labor-intensive, high-risk industries, such as various mines, which are often used in large quantities. Of course, since the death collateral is not high, the employer will also increase the labor intensity as much as possible during the lease period, and the result is that it is basically impossible for these people to get out of the mine alive. As a result, the benefits of the Model Army were reduced, and the Model Army had to devote more troops to hunting down and purging the banner people, which in turn gave Zilharang more time to escape.

Zilharang fled to Hetuala, where Nurhachi started his home, and the Manchus called it "Xingjing", which was quite important in political status, but it was not a city in the real sense, just a small castle, surrounded by mountains and forests, and there was no farmland, so it could not carry much population at all. But fortunately, at this time, there are not many Eight Banners who have fled here.

To say that Hetuara still has an advantage, that is, the terrain is difficult to defend and difficult to attack. Hetuara is located in the mountains, and far away from the plains, starting from Fushun, only a few dozen miles to the east to enter the mountains, and then to walk along the Suzi River valley for more than 200 miles to reach the city of Hetuala. Due to the road conditions, it will be very difficult for heavy weapons such as cannons to travel along the way. And there are many dangerous and convenient places on the road. In the battle of Sarhu, Nurhachi was able to defeat the Ming army, which had many geographical factors.

At one time, Zilharang also wanted to rely on the geographical advantage to stop the model army here. However, now is not the time for the Battle of Sarhu, neither the Eight Banners nor their opponents can compare with back then. The Eight Banners had just suffered a series of defeats, losing most of their most elite troops, and the remaining troops were mostly old, weak, sick and demoralized; Their opponents, by contrast, are well-trained, well-equipped, and have high morale. In addition, Zilharang's military talent and prestige are far inferior to Nurhachi's back then. So the resistance he organized was easily defeated by the Model Army's troops, and Zilharan himself was killed in the battle. And his death also announced the disappearance of the last organized resistance of the Manchus in the territory of the Ming Dynasty. To celebrate this victory, Emperor Hongguang announced an amnesty to the world

Some of the remnants of the Manchu retreated to Korea, while others fled further north. However, the model army temporarily stopped the pursuit, and the Zheng group began to occupy a large amount of land in Liaodong, and used the immigrants from the interior to establish large-scale plantations and pastures based on soybeans, potatoes, and alfalfa. On the other hand, the remnants of the Manchu Qing who had fled to Korea, under the leadership of Luck Dehun, continued to defeat the Korean army, gradually gained a foothold, and began to advance continuously to the south. and captured Pyongyang two years later.

In the third year after the recapture of Liaodong, that is, in the sixth year of Hongguang, the Ming court in Korea had sent troops at the request of the Ming court to eliminate the remnants of the Manchu Qing entrenched in northern Korea, and helped Korea regain the land in the north.

In the seventh year of Hongguang, the Ming court launched a full-scale attack on Mongolia on the grounds of the rebellion of the Mongolian Horqin tribe and the shelter of the fugitive Jianxuan. The Horqin division was defeated and destroyed, and the Wu Sangui division of the Left Route Army continued to advance and had friction with the Khalkha Mongols (Mobei Mongols). But the two sides quickly withdrew their forces, and there was no major fighting. After that, Wu Sangui dispersed and incorporated a large number of Mongolian herdsmen in southern Mongolia and established a series of large pastures in the Mongolian steppe, thus almost disintegrating the tribal pattern of Mongolia for hundreds of years.

In May of the ninth year of Hongguang, Wu Sangui gathered troops to the grassland on the grounds that Mobei Mongolia had taken in Horqin and the remnants of the Manchu Dynasty. Threats to solve the problem by force. After consulting with Wu Sangui's representatives, the Mobei Mongols handed over the Korqin and Manchu remnants to Wu Sangui and submitted to the Ming court, and Wu Sangui also obtained the privilege of establishing a trading post in the jurisdiction of Mobei Mongolia for trade. Since then, Wu Sangui has continued to use similar methods to infiltrate the Western Regions.

In June of the ninth year of Hongguang, under the control of Zheng, the Ming Dynasty allied with the Netherlands and declared war on the British. In support of the war, the Model Army attacked Portuguese-controlled Colombo under the pretext that Portugal had undermined neutrality and provided services to the British, and at the same time forbade Portuguese ships from trading with China. In July of the same year, the first improved steam engine was put into service at Zheng's shipyard.

After negotiations, the Cheng group bought Colombo from the Portuguese for a thousand gold coins paid in instalments and transformed it into the most important military base of the Cheng clan in the Indian Ocean.

In May of the 10th year of Hongguang, the Zheng group declared war on the Sinhalese kingdom under the pretext of "disobedience to the king" of the Sinhalese kingdom, and defeated the Sinhalese in October of that year. At this point, Sri Lanka became another colony under the control of the Zheng family. After about five years of armed colonization and small-scale wars, the "transformation of Sri Lanka into summer" was basically completed.

It is interesting to say that Zheng declared war on the British, but ended up fighting Portugal and Sinhala, and the two trading posts of the British in India have not been attacked by the Model Army in these years, and several trading posts of the Zheng clan in India have also not been attacked by the British, and even the trade between the two sides has not been interrupted.

In the eleventh year of Hongguang, the Zheng group discovered the "Southern Continent" (Australia) and established a colony in the Southern Continent.

In the fifteenth year of Hongguang, the Netherlands reached a contract with the United Kingdom. The following year, Zheng also reached a peace agreement with the British. In the seventeenth year of Hongguang, Zheng Du, the governor of Sri Lanka of the Zheng clan, cooperated with the British and demanded compensation from the Mughal dynasty under the pretext that they favored the other side in the Sino-British war.

In August of the 18th year of Hongguang, the Sino-British coalition army, with the cooperation of the Indian princely state army, defeated the Mughal army. The Model Army invaded Bengal and seized its treasury. The Mughals had to compromise with the Chinese and British armies. The two countries gained access to the interior of India for business and mining. This was the beginning of India's complete colonization.

In the sixteenth year of Hongguang, the prince of Anping and the important ministers of the court climbed the Xiangshan Mountain in Beijing to enjoy the red leaves. The prince of Anping wrote a poem: "For the sake of sacrifice and ambition, dare to teach the sun and the moon to change the sky." That night, Qian Qianyi, the first assistant of the cabinet, entered the palace to ask to see Emperor Hongguang, and on the second day, Emperor Hongguang issued an edict, thinking that King Anping was great, King Jin Xia, plus Jiuxi, and ordered to praise and worship without a name, and did not tend to enter the court, and the sword went to the palace.

King Xie of Anping said: "Jiuxi is not a courtesy. "I won't accept it. The Son of Heaven told him again and again: "If the king does not accept it, what is the life of the world?" "It was three orders, and the king accepted it.

In the seventeenth year of Hongguang, the Son of Heaven issued an edict to calm the king of the world. King Anping refused, and the Son of Heaven and the ministers invited him three times. Wang Nai received Ming Chan, changed the name of the country to Xia, and named Hongguang Emperor as the Southern Emperor on Java Island, and allowed him to serve the Ming Dynasty Zhengshuo, see the driver and not worship, use the Son of Heaven Lile, and give the Nanjing Beijing Palace to Hongguang, as before.
