When Luo Jian led 100,000 horses and horses from Wen'an to march to Beijing, the city of Beijing was already in chaos, and there was an endless stream of carriages on the official road from Beijing to Tongzhou, all of which were Manchu nobles who had escaped from Beijing.

The news of the failure of Sony's peace talks with the National Defense Forces in Wen'an County fell like a bombshell in the capital, shocking the Manchu Dynasty and the Manchu Dynasty into a panic.

In fact, it was not so much the shock caused by the failure of the peace talks as the conditions put forward by the Wehrmacht to the Manchu court.

Sonny didn't dare to say in the court that he had gone to Cining Palace to report to the Empress Dowager, the Little Emperor and Dolgon.

Dolgon didn't expect the Wehrmacht's conditions to be so harsh, that he couldn't even let the Manchu court return to Guanwai, Dolgon was a little desperate, he knew that if the Wehrmacht decided not to let go of the Manchu court, even if he ran to the edge of the sky, he couldn't escape.

"Sony, how long do you think the people of the capital will be able to hold out?" The Empress Dowager Burbutai was angry for a while, but she calmed down, and then asked Sony.

"Empress Dowager Qiyu, this minister can't say for sure, but the governor of the capital let the minister see one of their troops, there are more than 2,000 people, all of them are their new rifles, this does not surprise the minister, the minister is surprised that these 2,000 people walked with only one voice." Sonny paused at this point, he knew that with the wisdom of the Queen Mother, he must have understood what he meant.

Listening to Sony's words, Dolgon's face changed a few times, and after exchanging a few glances with Bulbutai, Bulbutai asked all the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace to retreat, and several people moved their chairs closer and began to whisper, and after a while, the voice of the little emperor of Shunzhi came from the hall. "I'm not leaving! You have to go, you go! ”

The voice of the little emperor of Shunzhi soon stopped. Then Dorgon walked briskly outside. As soon as he left the gate of Cining Palace, Dolgon suddenly coughed violently, and he bent down in a straight cough.

Some of his soldiers came up to help Dolgon, but he pushed him away.

Dolgon straightened up a little stubbornly, and looked at the palace in the distance, his eyes were both unwilling and nostalgic, but more resolute.

"Go and find Prince Ying and Prince Yu." Feeling a little better, Dorgon straightened up. He commanded the guards beside him.

Early the next morning, 20,000 Manchus and Mongol cavalry, who had planned to withdraw to Liaodong, left Beijing from the east gate under the leadership of Azig.

Azig led the elite army to go, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were even more chaotic, although the early dynasty was as usual, but the ministers did not see the little emperor Shunzhi on the throne of the Wuying Palace, and everyone looked at Dolgon sitting under the throne with questioning eyes.

Dolgon's face was a little sallow, and he looked very bad, and when he saw that everyone was looking at him, he held back the cough that reached his throat and took a deep breath. Dorgon stood up.

"The emperor's dragon is slightly ill, and there is no major problem. The emperor has an order, and all the ministers should work together to defend the capital, and there is no need to visit. ”

After saying these words, Dolgon couldn't breathe, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered.

As soon as Dolgon's words were finished, the ministers standing below began to make a commotion again, and the Manchu, Mongol, and Han ministers were divided into three obvious groups, and they gathered around to discuss.

Dolgon frowned, tried to get up from the chair, but did not get up, and Dorgon, who was standing below, walked up to Dolgon a few steps, and called out "big brother" worriedly, and helped Dolgon to his feet.

Fan Wencheng did not participate in the discussion of the ministers, his eyes looked at the extremely weak Dolgon, and he seemed to think of something in his heart, and closed his eyes slightly, as if all this had nothing to do with him.

"The ministers are quiet, the regent has something to say!" Seeing that Dorgon had already stood up, the ministers were still making a fuss, and shouted at the main hall.

Duoduo shouted a few times, and the Wuying Hall was quiet, and Dolgon waved his hand, looking at His Highness's ministers, his eyes looked ahead, and he didn't speak for a long time.

"Big brother!" Duoduo lifted Dorgon's hand and called softly.

"It's okay, fifteenth brother don't worry." Dorgon turned his head and whispered to Dorgon before turning to His Highness's ministers.

Although Fan Wencheng squinted his eyes, he didn't let go of all the movements in the hall, and the title between Duoduo and Dolgon made him a little strange, in this Wuying Palace, Dolgon and Duoduo were actually brothers, which was something that had never happened before.

"Ladies and gentlemen, although the national defense force is now approaching the city of Beijing, it is only 100,000 horses, and my Qing Dynasty has 200,000 elites in the capital, and there are 70,000 new troops, so there is no problem in defending the capital."

Dolgon's voice was not loud, and the ministers could hear it clearly, but everyone could sense from Dolgon's weak voice that there seemed to be a lot of trouble with Dorgon's body.

"The defense of the capital has already been arranged, don't worry about the ministers, you just need to do your job, if you have something to do today, go back if you have nothing to do, and the king will go to inspect the garrison of the capital." With that, Dorgon sat down in his chair again, closed his eyes and took a few breaths.

A few ministers wanted to go out to work, but seeing Dolgon's appearance, they had to shrink back again.

"Stand down!" Duoduo waved his hand at His Highness, and the ministers began to disperse, and the morning court ended in a hurry.

"Big brother, let the imperial doctor take a look." After the ministers left, Dorgon said worriedly to Dorgon, who was still sitting in his chair.

"Fifteenth brother, I know my body, and it's useless to look at it. With the meaning of the eldest brother, I want the fifteenth brother to take the cavalry, but you have to stay with the eldest brother. Dorgon patted Dodor's hand gently.

"Don't worry, big brother, although the national defense force is powerful, even if the capital can't be defended, the younger brother can take the big brother to retreat with him." Dodor was quiet, but he exuded a sense of confidence that Dorgon knew came from his many encounters with the Wehrmacht.

"Fifteenth brother, this time Luo Jian is as elite as he can, and he personally led the troops to come, unlike in the past, his determination to seize the capital is very strong, if the war is not harmonious, you can go quickly, not in love!" There was a frustration in Dorgon's voice.

After sitting for a while, Dorgon felt much better and stood up.

"Fifteenth brother. Let's go to the east gate to see how prepared to defend the city. "Dolgon's spirit came. I started to worry in my heart. Said to Dodor.

"Big brother, your body is important, you go back to the palace to rest, and the little brother at the east gate can go and see the situation." Dodor said worriedly.

"It's okay, it's more comfortable to go and see for yourself."

Dorgon insisted, but Dorgon had no choice but to let the guards prepare their horses, and the two rode away to the east gate.

The regent and the prince of Yu came to inspect. The East Gate keeper Turai was a little nervous, and carefully led the two to inspect the defense of the East Gate.

Both Dorgon and Dodor were very satisfied with the defense of the east gate, and not only were sandbags piled up on the walls, but also a cannon that could open a flower shell was fixed on it, and Dorgon told Dorgon that the cannons erected on the walls could hit the Wehrmacht artillery.

Coming down from the tower of Guangqu Gate, Dolgon's mood began to become a little better, and his mood, which had just felt a little heavy, also felt a lot better, and he stepped on the back of a guard and got on his horse. Dorgon refused to be led by the guards on his behalf.

Patting his horse, Dorgon turned to Dordor who was following him and said, "The Wehrmacht firearms are good. However, it may not be a day's work to break through the defense of our capital, and the fifteenth brother has worked a little harder these days, so he has to inspect the defense situation in all parts of the city, and must not leave a gap for the national defense army. ”

Duoduo quickly agreed.

As soon as he turned from Guangqu Gate to Dongbian Gate, Dolgon's good mood was quickly ruined by the crowd of people out of the city.

The regent was supposed to clean up the streets, but to this day, it seems that everyone has forgotten about it, the Wehrmacht has not yet arrived in Beijing, and the Guangqu Gate and Dongbian Gate are still open, but the streets leading to these two gates are full of people who are in a hurry to get out of the city.

The Prince Regent's guard of honor was familiar to the people of Beijing, and several guards rushed to the front, shouting loudly "avoid", and the people who hurried out of the city did not dare to make a mistake, and even the people in the carriage got out of the carriage and knelt on the side of the road.

Although I had heard that many people were fleeing the capital, but today I saw it with my own eyes, and Dolgon's mood became very bad again, and Dodor next to him wanted to say something, but he shook his head and did not speak.

Coughing vigorously, Dolgon patted his horse and continued to walk forward, he didn't know what to say, most of these fleeing people were full, looking at the way they fled from the east gate, it seemed that they wanted to flee back to Liaodong.

"Do you think it's okay to escape back to Liaodong?" Dorgon said secretly in his heart.

Just as Dorgon and Dorgon were walking outside the Chongwen Gate, a strange change protruded, and a carriage rushed out of the Chongwen Gate Street, and the speed was so fast that the guards tried to stop it, but it was too late, and the carriage rushed towards Dorgon and Dodor's horses.

Dodor reacted quickly, pulling the reins quickly, and the horse neighed and ducked to the side.

Dolgon also saw the galloping carriage, and also pulled the reins, and the horse ran to the side, but at that moment Dolgon felt that there was a flower in front of him, and he could no longer control his body, and fell from his horse.

"Big brother!" When Dordor saw Dorgon fall from his horse, he screamed in a hurry, turned over and jumped off his horse, and ran towards Dorgon who was lying on the ground.

The galloping carriage had been cut to the ground by the guards, and the carriage was overturned on the street, and out of the carriage crawled out of the carriage a noble man in his twenties, who had just climbed out and was pressed by the guards to kneel on the side of the road.

Dorgon had fallen unconscious, and Dorgon had failed to respond to several shouts.

"Go to the Imperial Doctor!" Dodor shouted to the guards, picked up Dorgon and got into a carriage that the guards had just stopped, and galloped towards the palace.

"It's all cut!" Duoduo, who got into the carriage, pointed to the noble prince who was kneeling on the side of the road and the coachman who had fallen on the side of the road, and said fiercely.

An old imperial physician with a gray beard gently pressed two fingers on the pulse of Dorgon's right hand, squinting his eyes and carefully checking the pulse, and Dordor stood nervously to the side.

The old imperial physician let go of Dolgon's hand, opened his eyes and shook his head at Dordor.

"You quack, you can't save my eldest brother, I'll destroy your whole clan!" Duoduo yelled at the old imperial doctor with red eyes.

"Lord Yu, the regent originally suffered from tuberculosis, but he worked too hard, he had already run out of oil, and today he was hit hard by this, and it is difficult for Hua Tuo to return to heaven if he is afraid of reincarnation, and it will be useless for King Yu to kill the old man." The old imperial doctor was not afraid, and said lightly to Duoduo.

"Come on, pull this quack down and cut it down!" Duoduo yelled angrily, and several guards rushed up to pull the old imperial doctor down.

"Fifteenth brother, no!" Dolgon's weak voice came from the bed.

"Big brother, you're awake!" Instead of killing the old doctor, Dorgor threw himself on the side of the bed and shouted at Dorgon.

"Fifteenth brother, let everyone else retreat, don't embarrass the imperial doctor." Dolgon's voice was small, and a few words almost took up all of his energy.

"Fifteenth brother, the eldest brother's life should be like this, I can't complain about others, the eldest brother knows that my limit has come, but I really can't leave my Qing Dynasty!" Tears welled up in the corners of Dolgon's eyes.

"Big brother, no, you can recuperate with peace of mind, there are fifteen brothers in this Beijing city, and you can't turn the sky up!" Dodor said bitterly that he had been very rebellious since he was a child, but his eldest brother Dorgon had always cared for him, and the relationship between the brothers was very good.

"Fifteenth brother, you remember, if Beijing City is really undefendable, you must leave quickly, if you return to the Guanwai, you must remain incognito, and you must not fight for the heart of the world again. Fifteenth brother, the eldest brother has one more thing to remind you, if you leave, you must not destroy the Forbidden City, if you are so afraid of the disaster of annihilation! ”

After saying these words, Dorgon closed his eyes again, and Dorgon was so frightened that Dorgon did not dare to speak, but sat on the edge of the bed and wept.

That night, Dorgon finally took his last breath, and a generation of heroes died. (To be continued.) )
