Prince Burni's palace, at the door stood a palace guard with bright armor and a sharp steel knife hanging from his waist. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Stop! What people! The guards saw a man dressed as an ordinary herdsman and wearing a sheepskin hat approaching the gate, and with a loud shout, he stopped the big man.
The big man stopped, slowly raised his head, and the moment he met the guards, the guards were stunned. Just when the guard was about to shout out the name of the big man, he was stopped by the big man with his eyes.
"Nari Song! How are you? The guard walked up to the big man, lowered his voice and asked, "Didn't you follow the old prince to Shengjing?" How did you get back? ”
It turns out that this Risong is the captain of the old prince Abunai's Goshha! When the old prince of Abunai was naturalized, the palace guards here all belonged to that day, so the guards recognized him.
That Risong lowered his voice and replied: "Little brother, you hurry up and take me to see the little prince!" There is something important to report! ”
The guard said, "Then you can come with me." ”
"Wait!" Nari Song looked around, "Beware of the wall with ears!" I'm still going to go in through the small door! ”
About half an hour later, Narisong saw Prince Burni. Prince Burney, who was dressed in a big python robe, sat in the study, and after seeing the prince that day, he knelt down and saluted: "I have seen the little prince in my humble position!" ”
"Nari Song! Why didn't you serve your father in Shengjing, but you came here? Brni asked.
When Risong saw Azari Lama sitting on the side, he wanted to speak but stopped.
"It's okay, the living Buddha is our own people!" Burney Road.
"Back to the little prince! It was the old prince who asked him to come here! That Risong arched his hand and said, "The old prince has been rescued!" Shengjing was broken by the Ming army, and Prince Zheng saved the old prince! Now Shengjing has changed its name to Shenyang. Prince Zheng asked the old prince to bring back the troops, preparing to recover and naturalize and drive away the Jurchens! ”
Burnie nodded: "This king knows that Shengjing has been broken by the Ming army, and he has been worried about his father. Since my father is fine, then this king is also relieved! ”
Lama Azari asked, "How many men do you have?" ”
"We came with 15,000 elite cavalry, and then Prince Zheng's 50,000 army arrived." Nari Song replied.
"You have already submitted to the Ming Dynasty?" Brni asked.
That Risong replied: "The old prince has announced that we will return to the Ming Dynasty, and Mongolia will be a Ming vassal state from now on!" ”
Lama Azali was overjoyed: "Great! The old monk had long wanted to oppose the Qing Dynasty, but there were tens of thousands of Jurchens in the city, and the old monk didn't dare to touch them. Now that we have 65,000 elites, we can do something to the Jurchens! ”
Brni was overjoyed: "This king has been suppressed by the Jurchens for a long time, and he is almost out of breath!" I've long seen that they are not pleasing to the eye, but their strength is not as good as others! ”
In real history, Burni and Azari Lama rebelled against the Qing Dynasty, and later they were defeated and killed, and it was Zhou Peigong who made great contributions to the Manchu Qing Dynasty who defeated them. Now that Zhou Peigong is dead, Kangxi's hundreds of thousands of troops have lost their troops, and only tens of thousands of remnants are left, which is a good opportunity for Burnie. However, if you really want to make a move, with less than 10,000 Mongolian soldiers in the city, you will not be the opponent of the Qing army at all.
"When are we going to do it?" Lama Azari asked.
That day Song replied: "Prince Zheng's army has ten days to arrive at Naturalization, and when Prince Zheng arrives, we should join forces with the outside to capture Naturalization City in one fell swoop, capture Emperor Qinggou alive, and present it to Daming to show our loyalty!" ”
"Good!" Burney nodded, "Then as soon as Prince Zheng's army arrives, we will start in the city, open the city gate, and put the Ming army into the city!" ”
……
"Boom" Beijing city wall suddenly made a loud sound like a landslide and ground cracking, a piece of the city wall collapsed violently, the fallen city wall collapsed into the moat, the city bricks, rammed earth and ruins filled into the moat, just formed a passage, the city wall was blown open a hole more than ten zhang wide.
This is Zhang Hao with the people and auxiliary soldiers, with the help of a group of women, children, the elderly and weak, it took half a month to dig three tunnels leading to the city wall.
Within half a month, the Wu army's Minzhuang and auxiliary soldiers first dug a trench in their own camp, and then worked in the trench and dug under the city wall. The young and strong men went underground to dig the work, and the women, children, old and weak followed, using carts to carry away the excavated earth, helping the auxiliaries to deliver tools, cooking, transporting the soil, and carrying wooden stakes. Everyone gathered firewood and the flame was high, and the young and strong men cooperated with women and children, the old and weak, and dug out three tunnels and five fake tunnels.
While the Wu army was carrying out civil engineering operations, the siege battle on the ground was still ongoing, and the roar of guns, gongs and drums, shouts of killing and various explosions blocked the sound of digging tunnels, so that the Qing army could not hear the Wu army digging tunnels. In addition, there are five fake tunnels under construction at the same time, even if the Qing army knows that Wu Jun is digging tunnels, they will not be able to find the real tunnels.
In the first excavated tunnel, more than 10,000 catties of black [gunpowder] were loaded, and after detonating, a hole more than ten zhang wide was exploded in the city wall.
Immediately afterwards, there was another loud "boom", and a second big hole appeared on the western city wall! Before the Qing army in the city could come to their senses, there was another earth-shattering explosion, and a hole was blown open in the eastern city wall.
"Bombardment the gap!" Wu Sangui roared, "Kill into the city, kill all the dogs guarding the city, and kill all the banner people!" Avenge my son! ”
The Wu army concentrated all its artillery fire, aimed at the three gaps that were blasted open, and poured the shells into it at any cost, causing the Qing soldiers who tried to carry bricks and sandbags to plug the gaps in the back fell in a pool of blood. The cannonballs smashed on the city walls on both sides of the gap, causing stones to splash, smoke and dust flying at the city heads, and rubble flying sideways, and the Qing troops at the city heads on both sides could not stand at all.
"Kill the dog!" The earth-shattering shouts of killing sounded, and a large banner was raised in the camp of the Wu army, and countless soldiers who had just been turned from auxiliaries and people to regular soldiers appeared, and the tide generally poured into the city wall.
Wu Sangui was reluctant to let his soldiers rush in front, but gave those captives the opportunity to be promoted to become rich, let them be cannon fodder in front, and his elite troops followed behind, using auxiliaries and Minzhuang to consume the Qing army's ammunition bows and arrows, and then using elite troops to attack.
Attacking the city, everyone is promoted to three levels, they can plunder for three days, and they can do anything to the banner women casually, such favorable conditions have stimulated the Wu army's auxiliaries and people.
A large number of Qing troops immediately blocked up, trying to plug the gap. Who knew that Wu Jun pulled a few small cannons of the Franc machine forward, and the sub-guns loaded with shotguns were loaded into the barrel, and the Wu gunners lit the cannons.
"Boom" The rainstorm-like shotguns fanned out into the gap, crowding into a ball, and a large number of Qing troops who tried to block the road immediately fell.
Immediately afterwards, Wu's mortar cannon fired several more flowering shells, which landed accurately behind the gap, blowing up the flesh and blood of the Qing army.
