Chapter 0248 - Straight to the Yellow Dragon (Happy New Year's Day to everyone in advance)
After dawn, the county seat of Datong returned to calm.
The Qing army that raided outside the city did not prepare any equipment to climb the city at all, and once the city gate was closed, even if they wanted to support, it would be impossible at all.
Outside the city, Manchuria was inlaid with a white flag Aisonggu, and was promoted to the white flag Mongolian Meler Ezhen, that is, the deputy of the flag owner.
He tugged at the reins, from the initial panic to the final numbness, as the sound of resistance in the city was gone, turning into bursts of cheers.
Finished.
It's all over.
Azig is like a prey in a trap, at the mercy of others.
Aisonggu recalled the scene of hunting in the past, and could only look at Datong County without any way.
Could it be that you want to confirm the news of the death of Prince Azig here?
Manchuria is the blue banner of Gushan Ezhen Arzin, and he also led the rear army to Datong after dawn.
Then when he arrived at the city, he saw Ai Songgu's face full of sadness, and he thought that he had made Prince Ying angry and didn't let him in to participate in the reward of not sealing the sword for three days?
"Aisonggu, why don't you go into the city?"
Alzinze immediately asked, in fact, when he said this, he already felt that something was wrong.
The soldiers on the city wall all looked like they had been whipped, and the city head was not replaced with the banner of the Qing Dynasty.
Aisongu told Arzin that Azig and the others were trapped in the city, and that it was a trap.
Arzin was shocked: "How so? ”
Although he knew that Prince Ying was a reckless person, he would not end up like this.
If the news spread, wouldn't the Han troops brought behind him rebel on the spot?
What is even more frightening is that the Han army in Shuosai has been faintly rioting, and with the offensive of Qin Zuoming's vanguard team, he directly made him lose and retreat one after another.
If the news of the death of Prince Azig of England came out, even the entire counterinsurgency Qing army would be in an uproar.
Whether it was those Han troops who surrendered, or the Mongols, or even the Manchurian Eight Banners.
"What you say is true?" Arzin asked, gritting his teeth.
"What am I lying to you about!" Aisonggu was holding the horsewhip, and his mood was extremely complicated.
The Qing army has besieged Shanxi for several months, and it has long been tired and old, and now it has suffered such a big defeat, and it is a fart!
Not only must the responsibility for the defeat be investigated, but also the guilt of abandoning the bones of the Eight Banners cavalry, and you will have to be cut off when you go back.
The last time I did this, I was directly confiscated half of the family property, but this time I am afraid that the entire family property will be confiscated, and there will be no atonement.
Arzin's face turned blue and white.
In the urn city, Azig was surrounded by thick corpses, and finally used the corpses to block the battlements of the city gate.
The arrows couldn't get in, but they were all blocked in the gates to prevent arrows.
Inge hid in the corner with a gloomy face, trying not to let the arrows hit him.
Azig leaned against the wall, his face bloodied, he could not be a prisoner no matter what.
After struggling for half the night, it has become a fact that they cannot rush out, and only when these rebels open the city gates can they fight to the death.
Jiang Hao carefully picked up the battlements of the city wall, after all, the archery skills of the dog tartar were really not covered.
Despite being cautious, there are not a few archers who were killed by the heavy arrows of the Qing army.
The key is that the death phase is too infiltrating, and it will really affect the soldiers' fighting spirit.
"Dad, why don't we throw a few earth-shattering thunderbolts down and stun Azig." Jiang Meng whispered.
"That's not going to work, what if you blow up Azig to death!"
Jiang Hao paused and muttered in a low voice: "If the Qing court does not admit that Azig is dead, then we won't kill him for nothing!"
Stupid things without interests, we can't do it! ”
"So let's just hold on like this?"
"Yes." Jiang Hao nodded heavily: "I will send someone to cut down all the dogs and tartars on the street that are not dead first."
Then there will be a celebration banquet on the spot, and we will sit on the city wall and eat, stew, damn it, and starve these dogs to death. ”
"Okay, I'll arrange it."
Jiang Hao sat on the city wall and starved Azig for a few days, even if he committed suicide, it would be earned.
The prince of the Qing court.
Dolgon's own brother.
Can kill one is one!
Just when the battle situation in Shanxi was stalemate, Qin Zuoming led his descendants to pass through Taiyuan, went straight to Yangquan, walked Shouyang, crossed the solid pass, and arrived at Zhending Mansion, which was repaired for the time being.
Next is Fangshan, which goes straight to Wanping to reach Jingshi.
"But have you figured it out?" Qin Zuoming wiped his face, his face a little tired.
"If you go back to the marshal, it has been determined, Shang Kexi, the king of Shunzhi of the Qing court, will return to the dynasty with his men and horses, and we will just pretend to be their vanguard troops."
Qin Zuoming nodded, glanced at the two captives in the hall who were still dressed as money rat tails, and said:
"Liu Zhiyuan, Zu Zerun, you know what to do!"
"The little one understands." Liu Zhiyuan immediately knelt on the ground and said loudly: "This time, I must saddle the horse for Qin Dashuai, and enter Beijing to capture that Shunzhi child." ”
"The guilty must do his best, and dare not have two hearts." Zu Zerun also hurriedly knelt on the ground to make a statement.
"Okay, on this way to Beijing, if we arouse suspicion, Dolgon will know our whereabouts first, and we will raise you for so many days, and it will be the end."
"Understood, understood."
Liu Zhiyuan and Zu Zerun's eyes were full of desire to survive, they didn't want to be beheaded like Nikan Mandahai.
Moreover, once the city of Beijing is besieged, then Dolgon and Emperor Shunzhi will be the turtle in the urn, and it is best to survive in the hands of Qin Zuoming first.
Inside the Imperial Palace in Beijing.
Dolgon was watching the report, Qin Zuoming led 300,000 people out of Sichuan to the east, no matter what, he had to pay attention to it.
Will Qin Zuoming be blocked by Azig in Shanxi and unable to get close to Shuntian Mansion?
Dolgon was not sure, especially the brothers who surrounded Jiang Xuan, and the city was not necessarily broken for several months.
In this way, when Qin Zuoming's army comes to Shanxi, Azig will not be able to resist.
Therefore, Dolgon dispatched Shang Kexi, one of the kings of Sanshun, to lead the army back first, and Geng Zhongming assisted Kong Youde to stabilize Guilin's position, and then returned to the court.
Qin Zuoming has so many people and horses, and the grain road is so long, there are flaws everywhere.
If Qin Zuoming dared to besiege Shuntianfu and even the city of Beijing, Dolgon believed that he could hold the capital with his own troops.
As long as Shang Kexi and the others cut off the grain route of Qin Zuoming's army in the back, then what confidence does he have.
At that time, it will be Qin Zuoming who will be eaten, as long as his biggest banner falls, then the remaining scattered rebellions, Dolgon will not care at all.
These rebellions were all after Qin Zuoming killed Yan Yechen and killed Prince Su Haoge second, and suddenly there were rebellions everywhere.
The loss of Haoge's men and horses really hurt the Qing court.
In addition, the Mongolian Sunit Department opposed the Qing Dynasty and went to the Khalkha Chechen Khan Department, such a person did not cooperate with Qin Zuoming.
It was all a rebellion run out of the Dolgon brothers themselves.
Duoduo went to quell the rebellion with illness, which involved a lot of energy and people in the Qing court.
Now Shang Kexi, who had to be transferred back in time to one of the kings of Sanshun, came to escort him, and Kong Youde couldn't leave for Nanming and the Great Western Army.
As for Wu Sangui, it was a rebellion caused by the "enemy" Zuo Mengeng and others.
Dolgon was also afraid that directly transferring King Sanshun back would frighten Qin Zuoming to become cautious.
When he learned that Shang Kexi's men and horses were hurrying towards Fangshan, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
He immediately sent someone to tell Shang Kexi to temporarily garrison the army in Fengtai, where there was a supply of grain and grass that had been prepared long ago.
In any case, Shang Kexi had to divide his troops to test one or two Qin Zuoming.
Just as Dolgon gave the order, he received an urgent report from Shanxi.
"Azig is trapped in Datong City, and he doesn't know if he lives or dies."
As soon as Dorgon read these words, he only felt his heart pounding, and his face was extremely ugly.
He never expected that Azig would be deceived into Weng Zhong by Jiang Jiu.
Dolgon thought about it several times, Azig and Qin Zuoming were at war with each other, and the war between you and me, but he never thought that he would fall into the hands of a rebel like Jiang Jiu.
"How could it be! How can it be! Dorgon got up from his chair and roared, "Is Azig a pig?" ”
"How could such a mistake be made!"
Dolgon roared and threw the fold directly to the ground, walking around the main hall.
At this moment, there is no way to stop Qin Zuoming's Bingfeng, Haoge died in Sichuan and Shu before, and the impact is huge.
He forcibly married Hauge's Fujin and then annexed his remaining men.
If Azig dies again, how many centaurs will be left!
The Han army that surrendered to itself was originally a wallhead, and most of them surrendered to Dashun from the Ming army, and then surrendered to the Qing army.
Now that Qin Zuoming hasn't made a move, Azig has been solved by Jiang Xuan, so for these wall grasses, it is clear that they are going to rebel.
Not only that, but they will also be bold, thinking of capturing a few Qing army generals and going to ask for credit, otherwise why can they be looked at by Qin Zuoming.
"Dolgon, why are you so annoyed?"
Zilharang touched his beard and asked, "Isn't it that Azig is ineffective in fighting?" ”
In short, the Azig army has been besieging Shanxi for several months, and it has not been defeated, so it is really difficult to fight.
"Not only did he not take Shanxi, he killed Jiang Jiu, but he also lost his own life."
Dorgon's face was very ugly, he had never imagined such an outcome.
Even he thought that if Azig was reckless, he would be killed by Qin Zuoming, but he didn't expect to be killed by Jiang Xuan.
What is trapped in the city, I don't know if I live or die, I am sure that I will die.
Zilharang didn't expect Azig to be defeated so neatly, he couldn't help but ask: "But then Qin Zuoming forced him?" ”
"No, I heard a few days ago that Qin Zuoming's vanguard has just arrived in Taiyuan and is resting there, how could the war in Shanxi happen so quickly?"
Zilharan hurriedly had the folds on the ground picked up and read to him.
The more he listened, the more ugly his face became, he had experienced such a big defeat!
"Dolgon, we must strengthen the defense line in Shanxi, otherwise once we are invaded to Shuntianfu, it will inevitably shake the government and the opposition, which is not conducive to our rule."
Zilharang said directly: "Just in case, let Your Majesty return to Shengjing first." ”
"No." Dolgon hurriedly refused: "I have only moved here with great difficulty in the Qing Dynasty, how can I easily move because the enemy is unknown." ”
Zilharang also regretted saying this a little, but for the sake of safety, it should indeed be done so as not to scare the emperor.
Dolgon didn't want Emperor Shunzhi to get out of his own control, once the emperor moved, he would be directly escorted by the two flags of Zhenghuang and Huang.
Do you want to return to Shengjing with the emperor, and whether Beijing is still guarded?
"Your Majesty can not move lightly!" Dolgon said categorically: "Even if Qin Zuoming has come to Shuntian Mansion, can he break through Beijing City?"
At such a long distance, his artillery could not be quickly transported with the army. ”
In the face of the fact that the red-clothed cannon is difficult to transport, this is a recognized thing, why can Qin Zuoming transport it well.
"We're too anxious." Dolgon lost his temper and calmed down: "Overestimating his destructive power. ”
Zilharang bowed slightly: "No matter what, you have to ensure Your Majesty's safety." ”
It's not that Zilharang is afraid, but the Qing army wasters who were sent back, describing that kind of terrifying scene, circulating in the army.
With Wanyan Yechen first, coupled with Ao Bai, it was enough to make many Qing Army Eight Banners a little afraid when they heard the name Qin Zuoming.
When Haoge dies in Sichuan and Shu, it will make them feel even more chilled.
If the news of Azig's death is transmitted back to the capital again, how long can the morale of the Eight Banners in the capital be maintained when they encounter Qin Zuoming's men?
"It's all over now." Dolgon immediately decided: "Immediately send out scouts to investigate everywhere, and be sure to know all the conditions in Shanxi."
In addition, he sent people to step up and let Shang Kexi hurry back to the capital and stationed in Fengtai as a corner.
In addition, important ministers were summoned to discuss the situation and how to deal with the war. ”
"Yes, yes, yes." Zilharang nodded in response, and now the Qing Dynasty has fallen into a crisis.
There were not many people in the vicinity of the entire city of Beijing, and all of them were scattered out to quell the rebellion, put out fires everywhere, and it was difficult to return to the capital in a short time.
Only Shang Kexi's army traveled day and night, and rushed back closer.
Under Dorgon's decision, the Qing court quickly responded.
Liu Zhiyuan received an order from Dolgon to Shang Kexi, and ordered the army to be stationed in Fengtai, where there was a supply of grain and grass, and it was at odds with Beijing.
He sent away the messenger who delivered the letter, and immediately went to Qin Zuoming, telling him that Dolgon did not realize that they were a fake and happy team.
And I have made arrangements for Shang Kexi!
Qin Zuoming looked at the order issued by Dolgon, and was overjoyed: "Good job, keep working hard, I'm giving you a chance to transform you!" ”
"Thank you Qin Dashuai for your trust, I will definitely make a good transformation in the future."
Liu Zhiyuan was beautiful, and as for the messengers who were still happy to deliver letters on this road, they were all intercepted and did not give Dolgon the real news.
"Lao Jiu, let's go straight to the Yellow Dragon?" Lei Datou took out the cigarette bag and pot, and was full of smiles for a while.
It seems that Dorgon is quite happy with this, and still trusts it.
Qin Zuoming took Dolgon's order and smiled:
"That's right, let's go straight to Huanglong, it's best to go straight to Beijing City, enter the palace, and capture the Tartar Dog Emperor at one time."
"Hahaha, happy!"
