Chapter 549: History Is Written by the Victors!
Liang Pengfei did not live in the palace of Yanjing City, he still lived in the military tent outside the city, and he did not have time to visit Yanjing City, which had been to Yanjing City several times in later generations, because there were too many things to deal with. 【Reading.com】
In the north, under the Shanhai Pass, they have been trying to withdraw and can't retreat, and they can't attack the Shanhaiguan Forbidden Brigade Eight Banners finally received the news on the fourth day after Qianlong surrendered to the Liang family's army, originally, their commander still wanted to return to the division to savior, but when a division of the Liang family's army landed on Qinhuangdao and threatened their flank, in front of the holy decree brought by Na and Shen, they finally chose to give in, lay down their arms, and surrender unconditionally.
At the end of July, the Manchurian Eight Banners of Manchuria had to surrender their arms in front of the holy decree brought by Prince Yonglang of Heshen and Yi, and surrendered to the Liang army under the city of Daling on August 5.
During this period, the Manchu bannermen in Yanjing had to leave Yanjing City, where they had lived for more than 150 years, under the custody and surveillance of Liang Jiajun, and marched towards the Mongolian steppe in the north, and when the last Manchu banner man left Yanjing City, the time was fixed on the first day of September in 1795.
On the same day, representatives of the gentry of the prefectures and counties near Zhili, accompanied by officials of Liang Jiajun, visited Yanjing City, and after that, the people who originally lived in the outer city of Yanjing City became the first residents of the inner city of Yanjing.
At this time, a large number of displaced people from all over the country who had lost their homes due to the war also began to be arranged to live in the city.
"My lord, the Qing Dynasty has fallen, shouldn't we mention a lot of things earlier? ……”
“…… If we don't decide to be the capital of Yanjing, then where should we be located, and the country's political axe station can't always be undecided and run around, right? ”
“…… Also, the name is not right, I also ask your lord to ascend the throne as the emperor as soon as possible, although we know that you are not very interested in this, but the country is said to be indispensable, and your ascension to the throne as the emperor is not only conducive to the rapid restoration of stability, but also allows us to have the name of righteousness. ”
Every day, Liang Pengfei has a feeling that life is worse than death, which annoys those guys, and almost every day a vote of people will come to him and talk crookedly, as if it is not enough for Liang Pengfei to deeply understand today's urgent problems.
However, in the end, Liang Pengfei had to raise his hands to surrender and agree to the founding of the country, but it was not built in Yanjing, as for where it should be built, the big guy discussed, anyway, no later than the year at the latest, or the beginning of next year, the peace finally returned to the ears.
--------------------
At the moment when Liang Pengfei was anxious, those Manchu bannermen who left Yanjing City and Manchu finally opened another page of history. The Manchu Banner people carried out this concentration in the Mongolian steppes in the north, and then used it as a starting point to begin the last great migration of ethnic minorities in modern human history, which lasted for four years.
Qianlong, the Manchu emperor who reigned for 60 years and surrendered to the Liang family's army, died in the Xisayan Mountains in the area of Tangnu and Lianghai on the way to migrate. His son, Yongyan, became the new leader and continued to lead the Manchu bannermen on their march westward...... These parasites, who relied on squeezing and absorbing the blood of nearly 300 million Chinese people to feed themselves, finally found themselves losing everything. Their fate and future will be a repeat of the old path of those ancient nomads.
There were numerous clashes and disputes with their former Mongol allies, but when they entered Russian territory, they finally abandoned their internal contradictions, united closely, and arrived at the lower reaches of the Volga River in the northern part of the Sea in early 1799.
Less than half of the approximately 750,000 Manchu bannermen who had set out at the beginning of the journey had reached the lower Volga, and after that, the Manchu bannermen, who had established a state in the Caspian lowlands along the lower Volga, waged an arduous struggle with Russia.
"It was an expedition that attracted the attention of the world, and every time the Eastern Empire became stronger, the nomads who were driven out by the Chinese had to leave everything behind, leave their homeland, and migrate to the west in panic. And every migration is not only the suffering of these nomads themselves, but also the suffering of the Western world.
Russia, a vast empire that had just grown strong at the hands of Empress Catherine II, was finally facing a threat from the East once again after the wise and visionary Empress died of a stroke and welcomed the so-called Neurotic Paul I.
The Tatars, savage and ugly, tired and ambitious, appeared in the lower reaches of the Volga River while Russia was too busy with war with and with other nations on the Continent to fight with France, where the Tatars, who had fallen far behind in weapons, fought tenaciously for survival after a decade-long war.
When Napoleon, the First Emperor of the French Empire, appeared on Russian soil with an army of 500,000 men, Russia had to compromise and allow the Tatars to live on the shores of the Caspian Sea on the lower Volga...... And now, there are only a few old people over eighty years old, who still remember the deeds of the past, and those young Tatars have long considered themselves good herdsmen, part of the citizens of Russia. ”
"And at a time when the Manchu bannermen, who were also called Tatars by Westerners, were waging an arduous battle in the West and struggling for their own survival, the king of the East, who overthrew the rule of the Tatars, took advantage of Russia's cunning gaze and was completely attracted by the chaos of Europe and the Tatars under his nose, and when Russia had no spare strength to deal with three frontal battlefields at the same time, the world-famous conspirator and strategist finally took advantage of the situation to launch a historic expedition."
"Pushing north again and again, completely seizing one Russian town after another, their weapons more advanced, their will to fight was incomparably stronger, Alexander I paid a heavy price for this, and finally, after losing 100,000 good Russian soldiers, had to sign the famous Treaty of the Kama River at the Kama River, recognizing that the two countries were bounded by the Ural Mountains, and that the Eastern Empire owned the Ural Mountains and all the territories west of them."
"After that, the monarchs of the Russian Empire, who were unwilling to be defeated, did not accept defeat and waged several wars, but each time, they left countless corpses and souls of Russians under the Ural Mountains, which were finally called the wall of sighs of the Russian nation by the desperate Russians, meaning that it can never be crossed." A later Russian historian wrote this in his published work.
"That barbaric conqueror, the destroyer of Western civilization and order, the harvester of the fruits of Western colonization, a conspirator who plays the whole world in the palm of his hand, the king of the huge empire of the East, who has again and again taken advantage of the will of Western civilization to seek world peace and development, and has used all means to obstruct the leap and progress of Western civilization and to exploit the contradictions between Western countries to achieve greater interests...... In short, if this person did not appear in this world, the West and the East could coexist peacefully, and our relations would be far more friendly than they are now. British political commentator and Prime Minister Duke Wellington commented.
"History is written by the victors." This was the answer of the chief press spokesman of the Eastern monarch, Staunton Jr., in response to a sharp question from Western reporters at a press conference.
--------------------
The news of Qianlong's abdication, announcing the surrender of the Qing political axe to the Liang family army and handing over the ruling power of the land of Kyushu is like a great earthquake that turned the land of Kyushu upside down.
Zhili, Shanxi, Shandong, Jiangsu, Henan, Anhui, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hubei, Hunan, Shaanxi...... After receiving this stunned news, the officials of one province after another even thought that someone was joking at first, but soon, they understood that this was definitely not a joke, the emperor of the Great Qing Kingdom had really surrendered, and the object of his surrender was actually Liang Pengfei, the chief soldier of Humen Town, the Guangdong Navy Division, who had just been selected in Guangdong a month ago.
Everyone was given to Lei De, especially the Manchu generals who commanded the great work to fight abroad, and even some of the main generals even arrested the messenger and tortured him, and the final result was unbelievable. After that, a question came to them: what to do.
To fight or not to fight? Surrender or not? Or is it self-reliant? These questions were like a marquee hovering in the minds of those Manchu garrison generals, and they were thinking, what should be done?
And the leaders of the White Lotus Sect were also a little dumbfounded, although most of them were cultists, but the purpose of their rebellion was to overthrow the Qing Dynasty, but now that the inexplicable Qing Dynasty has been overthrown, what should they do?
When almost the people of the whole country have fallen into a kind of inexplicable thinking and astonishment, history has turned a corner smoothly and in the unknown direction...
