Chapter 130: The End of the Manchu Dynasty (Part II)

On the two flanks of the machine-gun position, thousands of rangers had already rounded back to the enemy's flank and rear to outflank them, and the speed of the Pegasus was faster than the war horses used by the Qing army.

Although it is very difficult for the cavalry to completely annihilate the enemy without leakage, but on the side of the rebel army, because the main force of the three cavalry brigades finally arrived at the Tianjin Division, even the strength of the army occupies an overwhelming advantage, dozens of cavalry companies were widely scattered out to cut off the battlefield, and a considerable part of them even went around the back of the enemy, forming a net of heaven and earth, and the deserters of the Qing army could not fly!

For the Mongolian cavalry, the effect of persuasion in Mongolian is much better than that in Chinese, and after hearing that they can still receive preferential treatment for surrender, the Mongolian cavalry who already felt that it was difficult to run away dismounted and surrendered

In the end, the Mongol cavalry, which carried the hopes of the Qing court, was wiped out, while the casualties of the rebels were in the single digits

Well, strictly speaking, this Qing army was not completely wiped out, there were always some people who did not participate in the attack due to illness or other reasons and survived, but because these guys did not participate in the battle themselves, they could only rely on their own speculation and nonsense after fleeing from the camp to Beijing City, and they simply blew the rebel army into a heavenly soldier

The spies who had long been sent to Beijing by Li Hui took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire, and the rumors quickly spread in the city, and the more they spread, the more frightening they became, and soon destroyed the morale of the Qing army in Beijing, which was not high, and more and more soldiers deserted, and the powerful and rich people in the city also packed up and ran away, and a huge imperial city was filled with an atmosphere of panic and despair.

"Before you attack the city, you collapsed on your own?" , Li Hui couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the new message on the message board, but he immediately realized that this could not be said to be a good thing, and immediately issued an order to the three cavalry brigades through the message board, asking them to overcome difficulties and immediately start a pursuit, especially Cixi and Guangxu, who want to see people alive and corpses when they die!

Cixi and Yixun were now very glad that they had prepared in advance, otherwise they would not have had time to escape, but not long after they left the capital, there were sentinels who reported that they saw sand and dust rising on the southern horizon

At this time, it is impossible for reinforcements to come, so it can only be the chasing soldiers, Cixi is almost crying, "Why did it come so quickly?" ”

Yixun quickly figured out the truth, and lamented, "When the British and French troops entered Beijing, they asked for money, and the money in Beijing was enough to fill their pockets, so they didn't continue to pursue, and now these short-haired thieves want the whole world, how can they let us escape and leave behind trouble?" ”

"The speed of the carriage can't be faster than the cavalry anyway, you can't escape from it, you can only fight, if there are not many chasing soldiers in this force, there is still hope, after repelling them, we will go directly to Mobei, no longer stop at the summer resort, and then seek refuge in the Rakshasa country", Yixun's face flushed with obvious abnormality, and said with a slight tremble.

The "Devil Six", who is already in his last years, knows very well that the exhaustion of the past few days has greatly overdrawn the few lives he has left, and if he wants to survive until the next year, I am afraid it is impossible, but no matter what, he has to fight for a glimmer of life for this Qing Dynasty!

However, many things in this world are not subject to human will, although the pursuing rebel army only has a cavalry company, but the Qing army guarding Luan is completely unable to muster the courage to engage it, as soon as the former's guns are fired, the latter scatter in a hurry, and simply throw the object they defend to the enemy

Well, it's not that there is not a single "loyal and brave man", but there are only so many hundred and ten people left, and they can't even delay the other party's charge, how can they protect the Luan driving team?

Seeing this, Yi Xun only felt that his eyes were dark, and his body fell backwards as soon as he was weak, and at the moment of losing consciousness, he struggled to say the last sentence in his life, "Let the emperor get on the horse!" ”

"Sixth Master!" , Cixi screamed and wanted to help Yixun up, but because of the latter's last words, she stagnated, sat back and watched Yixun's body fall, and when the loyal eunuch helped him up, Yixun was already breathless

As the saying goes, "When a man is about to die, his words are good." Although the emperor's ability to survive outside the deep palace is very doubtful, especially Guangxu's health has not been good, but it is better than staying here to be captured.

Cixi has cooperated and struggled with Yixun for so many years, and she understood what he meant when she heard it, but the selfish Cixi hesitated for a while, why could the emperor escape on horseback, but not on a horse (even if he used to, he would definitely not be able to ride at this age.) But she can only stay and wait for death?

Then, there was no then, although the delay was not long, but it was enough to bury Guangxu's last chance to escape, because of the fear of cruel retribution for the crimes committed by the Qing army after entering the customs, and then thinking that most of the kings of the dead country in history did not end well, Guangxu and Cixi took the poison that had been prepared long ago, and they committed suicide with a number of eunuchs and palace maids including the chief eunuch Li Lianying and a few dignitaries

"This Qing Kingdom is dead!" , Weng Tonghe, the leader of the Qingliu who is the head of the household department and is also the teacher of Guangxu, hugged Guangxu's corpse and cried loudly, but although he cried sadly, the poison that had been prepared long ago was never taken out

"Oh my God, open your eyes, why don't you rain down thunder and kill those traitors?" , the Minister of War and Aircraft Gangyi scolded loudly, but the poison in his bag was also not taken out

Obviously, Weng Tonghe is much smarter than Gangyi, the latter's scolding was too loud and was heard by the soldiers of the cavalry company, and then the butt of the gun was smashed over, the young man was not measured, and Gangyi's age was old, and he was injured and frightened, so he hung up directly

The subordinates accidentally killed a senior official, but the company commander of the cavalry company only lightly reprimanded the little soldier twice, and did not take this matter seriously, anyway, the order above was just "live to see people, dead to see corpses." ", and there is no limit to having to be captured alive, killing one can effectively deter the captives, lest they have thoughts that they shouldn't have (to be continued.) )
