Chapter 120: Eight Banners: Let's Descend; Hanchen: I will never surrender in the Qing Dynasty!
"Long live Your Majesty, long live Daming!"
"I, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, is diligent and loves the people, wise and martial, far better than the Emperor Mazi of the Pseudo-Qing Dynasty!"
"I have always been a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty!"
“……”
Under the walls of the outer city of Beijing, which was already full of potholes, countless people kowtowed and surrendered, and Zhu Houxi, with the support of his ministers, returned to the capital where the Ming Zhu family had lived for more than 250 years.
The city of Beijing is fortified, but after more than 300 shells were bombarded continuously, it was already full of craters, and countless people were killed by the bursting shells.
Even the Viceroy of Beijing, the Auxiliary Minister of all military affairs in Beijing, was killed on the spot, and suffered heavy casualties in a moment.
Those people who were already forcibly pulled into strong men were not happy to do it, after all, it was okay to be a slave, but it was really not okay to die.
And the veterans of the Eight Banners are already leading their troops to retreat to the inner city to hold on, and the general manager of the inner city is naturally Prince Gong Changning.
Although the inner city walls are shorter, they are all real materials, enough to continue to resist the Ming army, which is also one of the last two lines of defense in Beijing.
If the inner city wall is breached, then the whole of Beijing will only be left with the palace gate to defend.
"I really didn't expect that this Jiannu would be so vulnerable, since this is the case, how did you destroy our Daming in the first place?"
Zhu Gaoxu followed Zhu Houxi's side, looking at the scene in front of him, just like the scene when he rode his horse into Nanjing with his father after the Jing Martyrdom ended, which made Zhu Gaoxu feel very puzzled.
"It's been thirty years since the children of the Eight Banners entered the customs."
Zhu Houxi shook his head, opened his mouth and said: "In the past thirty years, a generation has been directly changed, the newly born guy has grown up in the glory of his ancestors, enjoying all kinds of glory and wealth, this Eight Banners system is just like our clan, the imperial court needs to allocate funds every year to support the Eight Banners, and the children of the Eight Banners do not need any labor to directly obtain silver taels from the imperial court, and their combat effectiveness is naturally far less poor than before." ”
"And the most important thing is that Ao Bai has just died less than two months ago, and the people in Beijing are in turmoil, and everyone feels that they are Ao Bai's henchmen.
In the final analysis, the main reason is that the current children of Eight Banners have no motivation to fight.
Before entering the customs, the eight banners were all poor and crazy, and they wanted to live a good life after entering the customs.
And now that I have a good life, I am crazy, and my armament is relaxed, even if I go to the battlefield, I don't have the courage to 'not be afraid of death', I don't want to die, I want to go back alive and continue to enjoy happiness.
The combat effectiveness of the Eight Banners in Beijing can be said to be the weakest among the Eight Banners at present, far inferior to the Eight Banners outside the Guanxi and even the Eight Banners in the cities of the provinces.
The main reason for occupying Beijing in less than a month is that it seems that the generals of the Eight Banners are still immersed in the past, completely forgetting the degree of relaxation in the combat effectiveness of the Eight Banners in Beijing today.
If you really wait for the Qing army to come to the fullest, it will really be difficult to fight.
What is the complete body of the Qing army? It's layer by layer of supervision.
The Manchurian Eight Banners supervised the Mongol Eight Banners charge, the Mongol Eight Banners supervised the Han Army Eight Banners Charge, and the Han Army Eight Banners supervised the Green Battalion Charge, and the Green Battalion ...... If there is no supervision, you can only charge.
In this way, layer by layer, when it is the turn of the Manchurian Eight Banners to charge, the enemy is already weak, and at this time, the Manchurian Eight Banners can shine, build self-confidence, and at the same time cultivate a group of elites.
As long as you have experience in killing people, you are elite!
And what is Fang like?
It is mainly the Eight Banners of Manchuria, there are not many Han Army and Mongolian Eight Banners, and there are also Baoyi battalions.
In addition, Yue Le thought that he had seized the opportunity and prepared a wave of studs, which led to a chain defeat.
If the most important link, the green camp, has arrived, then it will have to be fought for a few more months.
Fortunately, the 20,000 Green Battalion was wiped out at the beginning, and without the Green Battalion of the Eight Banners Supervision Army, the combat effectiveness was just like that: after all, who wouldn't want to live?
This is the military method of the Kangxi Dynasty, the green battalion rushes to the front, bravely takes the lead, and calms everything.
And the Eight Banners watched the battle in the rear, urging the Green Battalion to march.
It's not that the Green Battalion is so capable of fighting.
Once the Green Battalion breaks away from the Eight Banners, the will to fight will be much weaker.
And once the Eight Banners lose the green battalion, it will be difficult to maintain their combat effectiveness.
It was the combination of the Eight Banners and the Green Battalion that won one victory after another in the Kangxi Dynasty.
"Recruit craftsmen, repair the outer city walls, mobilize heavy artillery, and continue to bombard the inner city."
Zhu Houxi took a deep breath and summoned the herald to order: "After the city is broken, first let the Manchurian camp and the Jiannu camp descend slaves to identify their own families, and then the treasures in the city will be looted by Ren Er and others, and the sword will not be sealed for ten days!" ”
Zhu Houxi is not a good man and a woman, and he does not engage in the act of repaying grievances with virtue.
How did the Qing Dynasty kill after entering the customs and breaking the city, and now he wants to kill it!
Popular Hearts?
It doesn't matter, kill and kill, and the people will have the will.
How can you deter the enemy army without killing?!
He wants to tell the whole city that if you don't surrender, this is the end, and if you surrender, you can avoid death!
After hearing Zhu Houxi's words, Tu Mo was immediately overjoyed, immediately dismounted, and bowed to Zhu Houxi: "Slave thank you!" Please allow Your Majesty to let the Manchurian battalion of the minions charge ahead, and the minions will inevitably capture the pseudo-Qing Kangxi Xiaoer alive and dedicate it to His Majesty's imperial front! ”
Seeing this, he did not hesitate, and immediately said ruthlessly: "Your Majesty, the slave's slave camp is also willing to charge first, and the athletes of my slave camp are all from the pseudo-Qingzheng red flag and the red flag, and most of the Manchurian battalion of Tu Mo is subordinate to Guanwai, what do they know about the capital?" If the minions build a slave camp and charge ahead, it will definitely deal a great blow to the inner city of Manchuria, and it will definitely have a completely different effect! ”
The Manchurian battalion had strong combat power, and the Jiannu battalion was familiar with Beijing.
Now there are more than 3,600 soldiers from the Eight Banners of the Jiannu Camp, and if they rush into the inner city, it may have a different effect.
The Manchurian battalion only had 800 men, so it was better to save some money.
After all, in Zhu Houxi's imagination, it was the Manchurian battalion that supervised the construction of the slave camp, and let the Eight Banners surrender troops outside the pass ride on top of the Eight Banners surrender troops inside the pass, directly reversing their status.
In this way, the contradiction between them is the contradiction between the Eight Banners outside the Guanwai and the Eight Banners in the Guannei, the Eight Banners resented that these Eight Banners outside the Guanwai robbed the treasures, and the Eight Banners outside the Guanwai could only cling to the thighs of the Ming army in order to resist the Eight Banners in the Guannei.
"Yes, order the Jiannu camp to fight, if this battle goes well, the Jiannu camp can be proposed to the Jianzhou camp!" Zhu Houxi said.
And Bi was overjoyed, and then hurriedly kowtowed to thank him: "Yes, the slave knocks on God's grace!" ”
Before Tu Mo was disappointed, he heard Zhu Houxi's voice sound again: "Tu Mo, I ordered your Manchurian battalion to supervise the battle in the rear, if you find that there are people in the Jiannu camp who collaborate with the enemy and flee, you can kill them all!" ”
When Tu Mo heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and immediately laughed from ear to ear, and kowtowed to Zhu Houxi frantically: "Thank you for the emperor's holy grace, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”
And the face of Jubi on the side was a little ugly.
Born in Eight Banners, he could naturally see what the situation was.
It's broken, I became a green battalion, and Tu Mo became the Eight Banners of the Han Army.
As Dorobelle, who was born in the Aixin Jueluo family, and has learned this set since he was a child, he naturally understands the relationship between the Green Camp and the Eight Banners of the Han Army......
But it doesn't matter, the green camp also has a lot of room for promotion, what if you are promoted in the future?
And I can only comfort myself like this.
With the issuance of the order, a large number of Manchurian soldiers soon appeared in the city of Beijing, and they rushed towards the direction of the inner city with ease.
Behind them, there were some Ming troops who were eyeing them, watching their every move.
The actions of the Qing army, the Ming army also learned.
The Ming army supervised the Manchurian battalion, the Manchurian battalion supervised the Jiannu battalion, and the Jiannu battalion charged.
Plan pass.
Seeing that the Jiannu camp and the Manchurian camp took a step ahead, and the Fubo camp followed, Zhu Houxi nodded with satisfaction, and then asked Lu Bing beside him, "How is the situation outside the Guan?" I have taken Beijing, and Guo Xun is still fighting with General Ningguta and General Heilongjiang? ”
"Although our army has conquered Ningguta, he led his troops to flee to Niman, Vladivostok and other places to continue to resist, and at the same time, Sauron's troops went into battle, but they held out with our army for a long time...... General Heilongjiang's reinforcements have fought with our army several times, and now they are stationed in Alchuka, which has a sense of oppression on the rear road of our army. ”
Lu Bing immediately reported to Zhu Houxi the current battle report outside the Guan.
The war report outside the Guanxi is not as important as the war report inside the Guan, so there will be no impact on Zhu Houxi's plan until there is a major breakthrough or major defeat.
"It seems that the Eight Banners outside this pass are indeed much higher than the combat effectiveness inside the pass."
Zhu Houxi nodded, and couldn't help sighing: "If it weren't for General Fengtian's problem, we would have conquered Shengjing, otherwise it would be a difficult bone to gnaw." ”
"Your Majesty, the king of North Korea Li Di to my Ming Dynasty, the beginning of the establishment of North Korea was a Ming vassal, the Qing thieves stole the country for several years, the Korean monarchs and ministers all endured the humiliation, today to see the Ming soldiers, crying with joy, should be heavy for the Ming Dynasty."
"The king of Joseon, Li Di, is willing to pour all the troops of North Korea, with the joy of the Ming Dynasty, to conquer the Jiannu Manchurian puppet Qing, and take the head of the puppet Qing Ningguta general Bahai in front of the emperor."
Lu Bing recited to Zhu Houxi the recital of the Joseon King Li Di, and at the same time opened his mouth and said: "North Korea sent 30,000 troops, intending to conquer Vladivostok, but was broken by the Ningguta general Bahai, and more than 5,000 North Korean victims were killed. ”
Very good, sure enough, it's North Korea, which is very in line with the image in my impression, the mouth is fierce, and the level is a mess.
As the saying goes, the dog that bites doesn't bark, and the more it barks, the lower the level, for North Korea, Zhu Houxi said that this is the case.
And North Korea is willing to return to the Ming vassal state, the reason is also very simple, first of all, because the Ming army entered the customs with lightning speed.
The same was true of North Korea back then, before the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, North Korea was subdued and became a vassal of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and now it is repeated again, and North Korea is naturally like this.
And there is another reason.
This Joseon king Li Di, when the Ming Dynasty fell, was the son of the Joseon who was a proton in the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, Li Di's recognition of the Ming Dynasty is much more than that of the Qing Dynasty, and now he is naturally happy to see that the former master has been resurrected.
Manchu? Barbarians are just like us, where can we compare to our civilized society!
This is what North Korea thinks in its heart.
Zhu Houxi nodded with satisfaction.
North Korea, worthy of being my first loyal dog of the Ming Dynasty, is very good.
"Let Guo Xun continue to sweep away Jiannu outside the Guan, and order Liu Xun to lead his troops into Tianjin, and cooperate with Zheng Chenggong, the commander of the Dengzhou Naval Division, to capture Tianjin together."
Zhu Houxi said: "Order Qiu Luan to lead his troops to Baoding, capture the Governor's Mansion of Zhili, and paralyze the command hub of Zhili!" The rest of the soldiers and horses, conquer the inner city as fast as possible, I already want to return to Fengtian Hall and Qianqing Palace! ”
……
Beijing, Inner City.
Prince Gong Changning has not closed his eyes for a day and a night.
The shelling outside was fierce, bombarding all the time.
The Red Banner and the Eight Banners of the Red Banner are attacking the city first, wanting to win the first success.
As a result, there have been a lot of righteous annihilation of relatives in the city, and many old soldiers with red flags and red flags saw that their own children Erlang was like this, and they couldn't help but hate iron and steel, but they couldn't do it, they just put the ladder down, and they didn't have any killers.
"My Ming Emperor Wencheng Wude, if you descend early, the Ming Emperor will be lenient, if you resist the heavenly soldiers, the day the city is broken, it is the time to slaughter the city!"
"Old and young masters, come down! Emperor Ming is merciful and treats us very well, if we don't surrender, the whole city will not be left behind! ”
“……”
The Manchu persuasion outside the city never stopped, which made Chang Ning's whole body tremble.
As a disciple of the Eight Banners, how can you surrender?!
And after surrendering, Tian shamelessly persuaded to surrender, is this my son of the Eight Banners? What the hell is wrong with this world?!
Although Chang Ning was extremely angry, his body was also trembling.
He was also imagining what would happen if the city was breached.
Le Erjin previously swore that Beijing City could support it for at least half a year, but the outer city was bombarded by artillery in less than four days, and Le Erjin himself died under the cannon.
Although the inner city is now strong, and with the psychological preparation of cannons, everyone has stopped rising, but has built fortifications, but ...... Does it really work?
How long can it last?
Eight days, ten days?
Or half a month?
Chang Ning was a little scared now, and the idea of Kaesong's surrender also rose in his heart.
After a period of struggle and entanglement, Chang Ning said to the guards and eunuchs on the left and right: "Gather the ministers in the city and discuss, do you want to ...... Kaesong surrendered? ”
But before Chang Ning could finish speaking, a burly guard stood up and said to Chang Ning: "Lord Wang!" The minister believes that the inner city is impregnable, and if the city surrenders, it will be self-defeating! ”
"When Prince Zheng conquered Hunan, the first emperor's holy decree 'resisted those who disobeyed and killed them; Those who do not descend will be killed.'" ”
The guard said sonorously: "How did I treat the Ming people in the Qing Dynasty back then? For those who once raised troops to resist, even if they surrendered, they would not escape death! Now that the thief has returned, he may not take revenge on us! According to the battle report, the heads of my Eight Banners are still in Jingguan, and their bodies have been burned! ”
"If I wait for Kaesong to surrender, will it really be possible to fall without committing a crime?"
Hearing the guard's words, Chang Ning instantly thought of some of the stories that the old man of the Eight Banners told him, and couldn't help but shudder.
That's right.
Surrender, it seems that there is no way to live!
As soon as he thought of this, Chang Ning instantly felt that the guard in front of him was extremely reliable, and immediately asked, "What's your name?" ”
When the guard heard this, he immediately saluted humbly: "Humble Yue Shenglong, after Song Yue Wumu, see Prince Gong, I am willing to do my best for the Qing Dynasty, and then die!" ”
"It's actually after Grandpa Yue, who is loyal to the country?"
Chang Ning was shocked, and then he was ecstatic: "Okay, good, there are famous generals after that, Beijing City is worry-free!" This king promoted you to be the general and leader of my Qing Dynasty Beijing Battalion, carried the flag into the yellow flag, and quickly ordered the Baoyi battalion to defend the city! ”
"The last general commands!"
Yue Shenglong was overjoyed, and hurriedly kowtowed, and then he was loyal, planning to defend the city for Changning.
He had just been transferred from Shaanxi and Gansu to Beijing as a guard, but he didn't expect to encounter such a major event, so he didn't hesitate to make a statement, wanting to seek a future for his son Yue Zhongqi.
As for whether Daming will win?
In Yue Shenglong's view, it is just a moment, the Qing Dynasty is rich and rich, as long as he insists on holding it, there will definitely be King Qin's soldiers and horses to come to the rescue!
Therefore, he must have a future this time!
Yue Shenglong went to take office.
Chang Ning, on the other hand, took a deep breath and felt very powerless.
He has no available generals in his hands!
Or rather, he didn't know who could fight at all.
After all, the famous generals were taken away.
For example, Prince An Yue Le and his subordinates Feiyangu, Tuhai, and Shangshan were all generals who could fight well, and either died or went to Xi'an.
And some of the remaining famous generals of the new generation were killed by artillery while defending the city, and the other half followed Kangxi to Tianjin.
Beijing, there is really no one.
Therefore, Chang Ning was forced to be promoted from the guards, and it can even be said that he was promoted very casually, after hearing Yue Shenglong say that he was Yue Wumu, he directly gave a leader and a general, and asked him to go to the top for a while.
Not only Yue Shenglong is like this, but many minions from Baoyi and Han people are like this, and they were promoted by Chang Ning to send them.
Moreover, Chang Ning also felt a strange atmosphere.
Among the children of the Eight Banners, many people look at themselves very strangely, especially those with red flags and red flags, and there seem to be many people in other flags who are secretly talking.
These days, Chang Ning has also received a lot of advice from the Eight Banners, and it seems that he is discussing whether to surrender.
opposite
The ministers from the Han people, whether they are clothed slaves or the Eight Banners of the Han Army, or the guards who have nothing to do with each other, are all in the main battle and will never surrender.
This made Chang Ning even feel as if he had to believe in more Han people, not Manchurians.
He felt a bit of a headache.
And soon, an old eunuch saw Chang Ning hurt himself like this, and immediately felt a little distressed, and admonished: "Little master, you haven't closed your eyes for a day and a night, please take a rest first." ”
"This king will squint for a while, and if there is something to call this king, he will get up."
Chang Ning nodded, then closed his eyes and wanted to squint on the bed.
I don't know how long it took, Chang Ning frowned at the noise around him, he was a little dissatisfied, and then, as if he heard a sound of mosquitoes and flies.
"What's the noise, didn't you see this king sleeping?!"
Chang Ning opened his eyes a little annoyed, and was about to scold angrily, but saw that several people around him had already cut their braids, holding ropes and sharp blades.
Suddenly, Chang Ning, who was still a little sleepy, was instantly woken up.
"He's awake! Tie him up and dedicate him to the emperor! ”
Without hesitation, these dreadlocked-up guys around them rushed up and tied up the thirteen-year-old boy.
Chang Ning said in horror: "What are you doing?!" You are the Eight Banners, the Eight Banners! Rest with the country! Why do you want to betray the Qing Dynasty, aren't you worried about the thieves killing you?! ”
"Prince Gong, I'm sorry, when we were defending the city, we saw our own sons and nephews, who had already descended to the Ming Dynasty and became the vanguard of the Ming Dynasty."
One of them opened his mouth embarrassedly and said: "Xiao Anzi said, now that we are in Chengcheng, we can follow to rob the inner city, and we can also let Xiao Anzi be promoted; If you wait for the city to be broken, you can only be robbed. ”
"What nonsense are you talking to him? Hurry up and tie it up, please reward! ”
Chang Ning was already terrified to the extreme, and had just been escorted, but he heard a noise outside.
"Rescue Prince Gong!"
"Brothers, protect me and kill me with Yue!"
"Zhao is a collar of the coat, the world guards the emperor's grace! Today is the time to spill blood for my Qing Dynasty, wait for the thief, and die quickly! ”
“……”
There was a sound of swords and soldiers intersecting outside, and the people of the Zhenghong Banner led by him couldn't help but look extremely ugly, and shouted angrily: "Damn it!" It's the coated minions who came to the rescue! ”
After that, the Zhenghongqi banner man took out a short gun and shouted to the children of the Eight Banners who had cut their braids behind him: "Old and young masters, we are red and red flags can fight well, for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, kill!" ”
In an instant, the Baoyi Han army, which claimed to be defending the Qing Dynasty, and the Eight Banners who surrendered for the Ming Dynasty fought in the palace.
