Zilharang was actually killed in battle, and the news made Zhezhe and Bumubutai's mouths open wide in shock.

How is this possible? Zilharang is the left-behind minister of Beijing, the regent of the Qing Dynasty like Dolgon, and he just promised in front of them that he would be able to repel the Ming army besieging the city, but he didn't expect that in less than an hour, Zilharang was killed. Is the Ming army's offensive really so fierce? Zilharang personally led the troops to save Chaoyangmen, but failed, and put his own life into it.

This is terrible, the Ming army is really unstoppable, Zhezhe and Bumu Butai came to such a conclusion almost at the same time. It seems that Dolgon's army was really annihilated by Cao Yue, and the city of Beijing will soon be captured by the Ming army. It won't be long before the Ming army will storm the Forbidden City, and they will once again become prisoners of the Ming army.

"Yu'er, what should we do? Is it really necessary to surrender to the Ming army and submit to Cao Yue? Zhezhe couldn't hide his panic and took Bumu Butai's hand, "Is it really the end of the Qing Dynasty?" This is also too fast, didn't Dolgon say a few days ago that the Battle of Texas was only a temporary defeat, and the Qing army was capable of defeating the combined attack of the Ming army and the Liukou. How did this suddenly become like this? ”

It's good that Zhezhe didn't say this, but when he said it, Bumu Butai couldn't help but be angry: "Auntie, Dolgon is too self-righteous, and before he can sit firmly in the world, he forced us all to move to Beijing, but he was unable to keep Beijing safe, and he ended up with the annihilation of the whole army, and he also affected us. If we hadn't been ordered to come to Beijing, we wouldn't have been so frightened now. He was also confident that he could defeat the Ming army led by Cao Yue, but in the end he ended up with the annihilation of the whole army, and Beijing was broken by the Ming army so quickly, and we women and children were all prisoners of the Ming army. Auntie, we can no longer hope in Dorgon, who has hundreds of thousands of troops. He also failed to defeat the Ming army, whose strength was far from our Qing army, and he was not Cao Yue's opponent at all, Cao Yue was the one who would control the situation in the world in the future. Let's give in to Cao Yue!"

"This is the only way to surrender?" Zhezhe looked at Bumu Butai blankly, "Yu'er, we really can only surrender to Cao Yue?" ”

"Auntie, if we don't surrender and end up as Cao Yue's prisoner, then maybe we won't get anything, we won't be able to win anything, but if we take the initiative to surrender. And to keep the Forbidden City from the devastation of war, I believe that Cao Yue will definitely remember our achievements. He also promised us that his niece believed that he would treat us well, and maybe even surprise us," because of the accidental death of Zilharang, Bumu Butai became more and more determined in his decision, and took Zhezhe's hand and persuaded him: "Auntie, we are only women. In the end, he could only live by men, and the emperor was gone, and Dolgon had also failed, maybe he was now the same as Zilharang. also died under the sword of the Ming army, we have no way to compete with Cao Yue, what else can we do except give in? ”

Zhezhe was silent for a long time. Finally, he nodded slightly, "Okay, Yu'er." My aunt will listen to you, and you will send someone to give orders to all the gates, stop resisting, and surrender to the Ming army. At the same time, people were sent to contact the generals of the Ming army, so that they would not kill innocents indiscriminately. As long as they treat the Qing Dynasty well, the Qing Dynasty is willing to reattach themselves to the Ming Dynasty and become a vassal. You write a letter to Cao Yue and tell him that we are willing to submit, so that he should not forget what he said, do not embarrass us, and must do what he says. ”

Seeing that Zhezhe agreed to what she said, Bumu Butai also breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately agreed: "Auntie, please rest assured, Yu'er will go to arrange it immediately, and will also send a letter to Cao Yue as soon as possible, asking him to come to Beijing in person to preside over the affairs, and ask him to promise to keep his promise, treat us well, and give us a good arrangement!"

"Then you go first, and when you're done, you'll talk to your aunt!" Zhezhe's energy seemed to be exhausted, and he looked depressed, and slowly closed his eyes.

Bumu Butai agreed, and immediately withdrew from Zhezhe's dormitory.

Although when he persuaded Zhezhe just now, Bumu Butai seemed to be very decisive, but when he went outside, he was stimulated by the brightness of the sun, and he felt a different feeling in his heart. What's wrong with you? At present, the great enemy is not thinking about how to resist and gather reinforcements, but thinking of surrendering, as if he should not do this. Did you do something wrong? Or was he really moved by Cao Yue's words, or did he have feelings for Cao Yue?

But since the matter has been decided, then it is done as decided, whether it is wrong or wrong.

Bumu Butai acted more decisively, she immediately returned to her dormitory, and hurriedly drafted an edict in a blessed tone, ordering the defenders of the city gates of Beijing to stop resisting and surrender to the Ming army besieging the city. At the same time, she also wrote a letter to the besieging Ming generals and Cao Yue, indicating her intention to the Qing court. In the letter to Cao Yue, he naturally wrote all his thoughts and thoughts.

After writing these things, Bumu Butai took the great seal of Fulin and stamped it, and then summoned his cronies in, and ordered them to pass on the emperor's edict immediately, and sent someone to send the letter to Chaoyangmen.

After doing all this, the sweaty Bumu Butai felt as if he had collapsed, lost a little strength, and sat down on the soft couch. She had a feeling that she was about to become a purge sinner, and the pressure was immense.

Bumu Butai's premonition is really not bad, she is destined to become a sinner in the Qing Dynasty and bury everything in the Qing Dynasty.

In fact, the current Qing Dynasty, the loss of strength is not large, and Dolgon still has hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, and he is on his way back to Beijing quickly. In the city of Beijing, there are at least 100,000 horses, far more than the number of 30,000 Ming army sailors who siege the city.

Zilharang's death was nothing more than an accidental coincidence. The Ming army that broke through the Chaoyang Gate pulled the new artillery to the city gate, and when it was test-fired, the shell happened to fall near Jierharang, who personally led the army to counterattack, and as a result, the regent of the Qing Dynasty who stayed in Beijing was killed on the spot, and his cronies around him were also blown down.

Zilharang was killed, and the counterattacking men and horses became leaderless, and they were unable to recapture Chaoyangmen.

When the Ming army broke through Chaoyangmen, the advance of the army led by Dolgon was only a day or two away from the city of Beijing.

Because of the rapid pursuit of Cao Bianjiao's troops, Dolgon had no way to get rid of it, and he was afraid that the Mongol soldiers, the Han army, and the Korean army would mutiny, completely ruining everything, so he had to stop and fight a few battles with Cao Bianjiao. After a few battles, the losses on both sides were quite large, but Cao Bianjiao did not flinch and continued to pursue. As a result, Dorgon slowed his march, arriving at the city of Beijing at least a day and a half later than expected.

And it was this day and a half that caused their "Great Qing" to suffer a fatal blow. Thinking that the Ming army would attack the city of Beijing, Dolgon's army would surely suffer heavy losses, and even the entire army was wiped out, Bumu Butai and Zhezhe, after receiving the news of the death of Zilharang, thought that the general trend had gone, and chose to surrender in order to keep the remnants of the Qing Dynasty.

Everything is wrong! (To be continued.) )
