Tianjin Wei. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In the Temporary General Headquarters, Zhang Feng was looking at the big map, only to see Wang Chaoyong walking into the hall from the outside, and said loudly: "Commander-in-chief, it's so beautiful, Shen Changwu's 16th Infantry Division fought a beautiful victory in Baoding, annihilating more than 20,000 Tartar elite cavalry, and even the Tartar warrior Azig died under the soldiers' muskets." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Feng also became happy all of a sudden, nodded heavily on the location of Baoding on the map, and said loudly: "If you win a beautiful battle, you will be rewarded with a heavy reward of 100,000 taels of silver for the 16th Infantry Division." ”

Prize 100,000 taels of silver!

Suddenly, everyone in the entire hall was shocked, yesterday, Zhang Feng personally said, this time to recover the capital, eliminate the Tartars, whoever performs well will be rewarded, and whoever loses the battle will be punished.

Zhang Feng's rewards and punishments are clear, and he does what he says, this time the 16th Infantry Division fought a big victory in Baoding, and a guy will be rewarded with 100,000 taels of silver, even if it is distributed to every ordinary soldier, each person will receive several taels of silver.

After the 16th Infantry Division fought a beautiful battle in Baoding, battles often took place within a radius of one or two miles around the city of Beijing.

Some of them were still big battles, and after the returning Tartars entered Hebei, after approaching the capital, they exchanged fire with the soldiers, and the fight was inextricable.

This kind of battle, starting from the Battle of Baoding, has been fought for more than a month, hundreds of thousands of Tartars, more than 100,000 were annihilated, more than 100,000 were captured, and the rest were scattered and fled.

For more than a month, Zhang Feng and others were also very busy, all kinds of information continued to gather in Tianjin Wei, and orders were sent out from Tianjin Wei one by one.

Among these battles, the Battle of Shanhaiguan is the most noteworthy, and among the many battles, this is the fiercest and longest battle.

Dolgon knew the importance of Shanhaiguan and was bent on taking Shanhaiguan, and after hundreds of thousands of Tartars returned one after another, he ordered one of the Tartars, about 100,000 people, to storm Shanhaiguan.

The battle lasted for nearly ten days, one attack, one defending, and the fighting was very fierce, but the soldiers were the defenders, with strong fortifications, rear-loading muskets, advanced 70-mm guns, tens of thousands of people, and strong walls, and the casualties of the soldiers were much smaller than those of the Tartars.

In the nearly ten days of fighting, at least tens of thousands of Tartars died in front of Shanhaiguan, Shanhaiguan became a defense line that the Tartars could not cross, and the battle was to the end, and some of the Mongols who participated in the attack either fled or surrendered, and Shanhaiguan was as stable as Mount Tai.

However, in such a fierce battle, whether it was the 1st Independent Division or the 2nd Independent Division, the ammunition consumption was very large, and the ammunition brought was 7 or 8 out of 10 consumed in the defense for nearly ten days.

Not only the 1st Independent Division and the 2nd Independent Division, but also the rest of the divisions, the ammunition consumption was also very large, and Zhang Feng's ammunition reserves for several months were consumed.

Tianjin Port.

Several 3,000-material transport ships, escorted by several steam-powered warships of 3,000 materials, set off from Shanghai Port and finally arrived at Tianjin Port after several days of sailing.

These 3,000 warships did not transport the soldiers, Zhang Feng's 20 infantry divisions, up to now, a total of 18 infantry divisions have arrived in the capital and the surrounding areas of the capital, the entire Nanzhili, only two infantry divisions remained, and some of its other armed personnel.

These 3,000-material transport ships brought boxes of ammunition one by one, and in the large rear of Nanzhili, several major arsenals worked at full capacity, working day and night, producing this batch of ammunition, which was immediately loaded and shipped onto the ship.

Tianjin Wei, Provisional General Headquarters.

Zhang Feng had already received the news that the transport ships full of ammunition had arrived, and Zhang Feng was happy for a while, and immediately issued an order to distribute the ammunition to the divisions.

Then, Zhang Feng said: "Chief of General Staff Wang, now that we have ammunition again, how are you going to fight next?" ”

Wang Chaoyong seemed to understand what Zhang Feng meant, and he was immediately happy, and said loudly: "Commander-in-chief, after more than a month of fighting, the main force of the Tartars no longer exists, only Beijing City remains, and the next step is naturally to attack Beijing City." ”

Hundreds of thousands of Tartars and horses, killing and killing, surrendering, fleeing, the entire surrounding area of the capital, within a radius of one or two hundred, the remaining Tartars are estimated to be only tens of thousands, send two to three infantry divisions to clear these Tartar remnants, and the next focus is on Beijing City.

For a long time, the city of Beijing was under siege by warriors, and this siege lasted for a month or two, and now it was time to settle these Tartars.

So, Zhang Feng said loudly: "Pass my order and order all the divisions besieging Beijing City to launch a general attack the morning after tomorrow and take Beijing City in one fell swoop." ”

On the outskirts of Beijing, the size of nine infantry divisions has been reached, which has greatly exceeded the total number of Tartars in terms of numbers, and in addition, the main force of the Tartars has been completely annihilated, and the time has come to attack the city.

The order was sent from the Tianjin Wei and transmitted to the divisions through the communication cavalry or through carrier pigeons, and the nine infantry divisions on the outskirts of Beijing began to prepare for the siege.

The most obvious of these is the artillery regiments of each division, often several artillery regiments are gathered together and begin to build artillery positions, and everyone's actions are immediately discovered by the Tartars.

The city of Beijing, on the city wall.

A Tartar general received the report, immediately climbed the city wall, looked out with a solemn face, outside the city, hundreds of meters away, a large number of soldiers are erecting artillery, this is a large artillery position, three artillery regiments are concentrated together, a total of 108 70 mm guns.

There are several such artillery positions outside Beijing, but this artillery position is the largest, and the other artillery positions, one artillery regiment, or two artillery regiments, and here there are three artillery regiments.

This is the main direction of attack, naturally concentrated a large number of artillery, the Tartar generals looked at the scene in front of them, felt a little frightened, for this kind of artillery, the Tartars finally gradually have a certain understanding, so many artillery, look at it scary.

After seeing it, the Tartar generals hurried down the city wall and hurried to report to Dolgon.

Outside the city.

Shi Kefa held a telescope, looked at the city of Beijing in front of him, and after looking at it, he looked at the huge artillery position not far from him, Shi Kefa was slightly excited.

After waiting for so long, the time for the siege finally came, and Shi Kefa said loudly: "Tomorrow, all brigades and regiments, give me all the charge, just wait for the artillery fire to stop, everyone will charge, and kill all the Tartars in the city." ”

The 11th Infantry Division is responsible for the main attack task, which is also Shi Kefa's initiative to ask for battle, since it is the main attack, as long as the artillery fire stops, everyone will immediately attack the city fiercely.

"The division commander, the commander-in-chief, and the chief of the general staff Wang are here." A security guard came over to report to Shi Kefa.

After yesterday after issuing the order to siege the city, Zhang Feng and Wang Chaoyong took a guard battalion and everyone rode to the capital.

After looking at it, Zhang Feng naturally wanted to come to the 11th Infantry Division, because after the siege began tomorrow morning, the 11th Infantry Division would undertake the main attack task.

"Hello Commander-in-Chief, Hello Chief of the General Staff!"

After this period of time, Shi Kefa has completely integrated into the role of his division commander, and the position of the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department can hardly find the slightest trace on Shi Kefa.

Yes, the Ming Dynasty has already perished, where is there any Nanjing Military Department Shangshu, now there is only the commander of the 11th Infantry Division.

Zhang Feng nodded, took a look at the artillery position that was basically ready not far away, and saw 108 70mm guns, to be honest, Zhang Feng himself was slightly enthusiastic, no need to think about it, so many artillery pieces attacked the city together, the scene must be spectacular and shocking.

Zhang Feng said: "Master Shi, how are the preparations of your division?" ”

Shi Kefa immediately reported: "Our division is basically ready, the ammunition has been distributed to every soldier, and as soon as the artillery fire stops tomorrow, all the personnel of our division, including me, will charge and successfully rush into the city of Beijing." ”

"Okay, tomorrow I will personally come over to supervise the battle, this time, I will definitely take Beijing City in one fell swoop, and wipe out all the Tartars in the city, not a single one will be left!"

Hearing that Zhang Feng would personally come over to supervise the battle tomorrow, Shi Kefa became excited, stood upright, and said loudly: "Commander-in-chief, rest assured, we will definitely give you a boost tomorrow and take Beijing City in one fell swoop." ”

………

Inside the city.

Dolgon has received various reports, many Tartar warriors defending the city will report that Zhang Feng's men and horses outside the city are preparing, it seems that this is to attack the city, so when he heard this, Dolgon was also anxious, and immediately convened the Manchu high-level, not only limited to the generals, everyone discussed in the main hall together.

The current situation, Dolgon knows, knowing that his main force has basically been annihilated, and he can temporarily hold in the city of Beijing, because Zhang Feng's men outside the city did not attack the city.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Qing Dynasty has reached the moment of life and death, let's see what to do." There was a bit of loss in Dolgon's tone, a little bit of frustration.

In the entire hall, all the people's faces were pale, and many people lowered their heads, these people knew that Beijing City could no longer be defended, and they didn't know if they could save their lives.

A dull, desolate atmosphere permeated the hall, and Dorgon himself let out a long sigh. A few months ago, how high-spirited and ambitious Dorgon was, he didn't think about it, and now this is the end.

No one in the hall made a sound, and after a long time, there was a humane who looked like a Han man: "Master, for today's plan, we are not thinking about defending the city, but about our back road." ”

The Han people who can stand in this hall are naturally not simple, this is Fan Wencheng, the head of the Wenchen, the biggest traitor in this era.

Fan Wencheng, the word Xiandou, the number Huiyue, is a native of Shenyang, Liaodong. He was the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, the Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty, the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty.

Fan Wencheng was admitted to Xiucai in Shenyang County in the forty-third year of Wanli (1615) at the age of 18. In the forty-sixth year of Wanli (1618), the Later Jin Eight Banner Army captured Fushun, and Fan Wencheng and his brother Fan Wenyu took the initiative to see Nurhachi and became one of the founding fathers of the Qing Dynasty.

During the reign of Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty, he was deeply relied upon, and he participated in the decision-making of all the strategies of the Ming Dynasty, the rebellion against Ming officials, the attack on Korea, the pacification of Mongolia, and the construction of the national system.

Seeing the head of the civil servants speak, Dolgon said, "Tell me about your suggestion. ”

Fan Wencheng said: "My suggestion is to negotiate peace with Zhang Feng, and the only way to negotiate peace is to do it." ”

Peace?

This is just a decent statement, in fact, it is surrender, and immediately some generals objected: "Nonsense, we Qing warriors, when did they surrender, only died in battle, not surrendered." ”

Fan Wencheng said-for-tat: "You can die in battle, what about other people, and so many family members, do you all have to die, at this time, you should consider leaving a little fire for the Qing Dynasty, my opinion is, let's negotiate peace, only negotiate peace." ”

Fan Wencheng said it soundingly, in fact, Fan Wencheng himself was afraid of death, afraid that Zhang Feng's men and horses would kill him after attacking the city.

As a person with a deep city government, in the past few months, Fan Wencheng has focused on Zhang Feng's research and understanding, Fan Wencheng himself believes that Zhang Feng hates people who surrendered to the Manchu Qing Dynasty very much, like Fan Wencheng himself, if Zhang Feng's men and horses attack the city, there will definitely be no good end.

Dolgon himself didn't know Fan Wencheng's little abacus, and when he heard the peace, Dolgon nodded, and now Dolgon was a little disheartened, and he no longer dared to fight for the world, just thinking about how to keep the Manchu Qing and how to let everyone return to Guanwai.

After thinking about it carefully, Dolgon nodded and said, "I think it is feasible to negotiate peace, do you have any opinions?" ”

The regent Dolgon said so, and no one did not object, and even some people were light-hearted, and secretly said in their hearts, to negotiate peace, at least their lives are worry-free. Fan Wencheng was the same, and let out a long sigh of relief.

Next, led by Dolgon, they discussed going out of the city to negotiate peace, such as sending those people out of the city to negotiate peace, what is the bottom line, the Tartars discussed for nearly an hour, and there was even a fierce dispute, it is best for Dolgon to calm down the dispute and unify everyone's opinions.

In order to show sincerity, the negotiation and peace were led by Dai Shan and Fan Wencheng, Fan Wencheng didn't want to go, because the negotiation of peace is a high-risk thing, and it would be too unlucky to kill himself if Zhang Zhang Feng was unhappy.

Dai Shan went in person, and it could be seen that Dolgon really did not have the slightest confidence that he could hold the city of Beijing, and really just wanted to surrender, so as to save the lives of the Manchu Tartars in the city.

Love Xin Jueluo? Dai Shan, also known as Dai Shan, is the second son of Nurhachi, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. In 1616 (the first year of the Mandate of Heaven), he was named Heshuo Baylor, participated in national politics, and was the head of the four major Baylors, and was called the Great Baylor in order.

In terms of qualifications, Daishan is older than Dorgon's qualifications, and he is known as the head of the four Baylors.

However, Dai Shan was once reprimanded by Huang Taiji as despising the king, greedy for money and breaking the law, giving leisure to the family, and not asking about the government. Emperor Taiji was suppressed because of his old age. Huang Taiji died, Dai Shan supported Huang Taiji's ninth son Fulin to ascend the throne, and his status gradually recovered, no matter what, Dai Shan's qualifications were very old, and Dai Shan was sent out, which shows that Dolgon has great hopes for peace and discussion.

It's just, is it really okay to negotiate peace? Will Zhang Feng accept Dolgon's surrender? (To be continued.) )
