Shengjingcheng, Dorgon.
Dorgon has been in a bad mood lately. Even the gentleman, who has always been gentle, has become very irritable recently. Even the maids who served him have been killed several times, which shows how bad his mood is!
Including just a moment ago, he had received the information from the sentry, that is, what he was most worried about finally happened... After a year of recuperation, the Ming Army finally breathed out and finally had the strength to clean him up. Up!
And this time the Ming army made a move, it was the momentum of thunder! With the 20,000 army of the three major generals, with the momentum of the Mount Tai, vowing to destroy the Qing Dynasty!
And seeing the results of the battle between the two sides made him even more desperate... It was as if he had arranged six Niu Lu, nearly two thousand people in Liaoyang, although he did not expect to be able to rely on this to resist the iron hoof of the Ming army, but he was delayed. It’s always okay for a few days...
But what he never expected was that as the second largest city of Liaoyang, it had only been held for a long time before it fell! And the information reflected in this... The combat power of the two sides has already differed too much!
Even the next thing that made him even more frightened was... Liaoyang has fallen, so what should Shengjing do, which is only a hundred miles away? With the foot power of the Ming army, it will be there in three days! So at this moment, should we flee immediately, or should we stay and fight to the death
Dorgon is unwilling to leave in his heart, but what can he do if he stays? Although he has tried everything in the past year, the Qing Dynasty still hasn't improved in the slightest!
Including now, even if he is the last stronghold in the Qing Dynasty, the capital of the Qing Dynasty, the land of the first good, there are nearly 50,000 civilians, but only six or seven thousand soldiers can fight, and even if these six or seven thousand people, at least half are The kind of young soldiers and white beard soldiers, so this kind of combat power...
In other words, in the face of the 20,000 menacing Ming army and four to five thousand Mongolian servants, the final result is already obvious!
"The emperor, according to the opinion of the minion, let's go! To borrow a saying from Mingguo, if you leave the green hills, you are not afraid that there will be no firewood! There is still a ray of life after you go, and if you stay here, let Taizuye stay If the last point of the foundation is all ruined, there will be no time for my Qing Dynasty to come back!"
Seeing that Dorgon was in a bad mood, no one dared to speak. At this time, only Dorgon’s confidant, Gushan Ezhen, who was in the white flag, persuaded him.
"Oh, you don't understand!" Hearing Niu Colu persuading him, Dorgon sighed, "I can't retreat alone! At least other places can retreat, but here you can't easily retreat! Because of this. It is the capital of the Qing Dynasty and the symbol of the Qing Dynasty! If everything is lost here, my Qing Dynasty will really be subjugated and extinct!"
So in the end, Dorgon decided... to fight to the end! Even if the battle is the last one, we must do our best to keep Shengjing!
Of course, Dorgon also knows that no matter how loud the slogan is, he needs the corresponding strength as a guarantee. Therefore, he shouted the slogan so loudly and made a posture of coexistence and death with Shengjing City. In fact, he wanted to Boost your morale.
And in the dark, he was instructing his confidant Niu Co-lu to bring a team of elite men and horses to guard a tunnel in the direction of Huaiyuanmen (Huaiyuanmen is a city gate in the west).
That is to say, Dorgon had already foreseen this day after he returned to Korea without success, so he sent someone a few months ago to dig a tunnel in a residential area near Huaiyuanmen. If this day finally comes, he can still have a way to retreat.
After Niu Colu took the order, he immediately proceeded to execute it, but what Dorgon didn't notice was that there was an inexplicable light in his eyes when the minister, who was close to him, went down.
Then since he has decided to stay the course to the end, after he convened the imperial meeting, the Eight Banners nobles had no objection... Anyway, after killing Hauge, all those who dared to make suggestions went to see the old slaves, so almost all of them now Became his speech.
And these important officials of the Manchu Qing Dynasty also knew that everything can be thrown away, but Shengjingcheng cannot be thrown away! After all, if even Shengjing was lost, it would be tantamount to announcing the subjugation of the Qing Dynasty! And even if you leave Shengjing City and escape, where can you go? Do you really get into the deep forests of Changbai Mountain and become a savage? So in this case, they are also willing to fight!
Under the recommendation, it's really good, it's worthy of being installed by book friends, and Android and iPhone are supported!
In this case, Dorgon immediately ordered... Defend Shengjing with all his strength! And he also issued a death order, that is, to designate eight important officials of the Manchu and Qing Dynasty respectively to be responsible for the defense of the eight gates of Shengjing. If one of the gates of Shengjing falls by then, he is the only one to ask!
Including in the middle and lower Qing army, Dorgon also let people promote such a theory... that is, the Ming army is here to avenge! To kill all the Manchurians! As long as it is full, no one will stay! So in order to survive, for the family's relatives, you must fight to the end!
And such propaganda, the Qing army still believes, after all, before this, their Congrui Respect Khan (that is, the honorary title given to the old slave by the Manchus) did such a thing, after conquering the entire Liaodong , Killed almost all the millions of Liao people! So can such a thing fall to them
Then, after all the arrangements were made, three days later, the 20,000 Ming army had already whizzed in!
And when Li Dingguo and the others arrived, they saw that the Qing army had closed the city gates, the suspension bridge was raised, and they were holding on to the end. Li Dingguo and the others were still a little bit happy... Not bad, they still have a bit of backbone. Escaped!
Otherwise, if they run away directly, they will not show their bravery... After all, it will be mentioned in the history books, but they have captured the capital of the enemy country! Such glory...
However, when the moment when Shengjing finally came, the three general soldiers were not in a hurry... They didn't blindly attack as soon as they arrived! Anyway, this piece of fat can't run away anyway, can I still use it in a hurry
So after the three generals arrived, they set up camp, and then after a feast, they sent soldiers to surround Shengjing to the Tuan Tuan... and the surrounding water could not leak, even a mosquito could not fly out. The soldiers began to order an attack!
Then a unique scene in history happened... You must know that in the original history, the Qing army at this time was steadily increasing in national strength, like the sky, so even if there is a battle between the two countries, it will be the clearing force. The main attack, the main defense of the Ming army.
But now? It's upside down! Become the main attack of the Ming army! And have to perform the final thunder blow... Conquer Shengjing City and destroy the Qing Dynasty!
So as the Twenty Thousand Ming Army began to unfold, hundreds of shield vehicles and dozens of suspension ladders leaned against the eight city gates of Shengjing, and a fierce offensive and defensive battle began!
Then I have to say that the six or seven thousand Qing troops who defended the city have a bit of a backlash. Thanks to Dorgon’s propaganda, they also know that Shengjing City is already their last nest and will be unable to retreat later. Retire, so they are all desperate for their lives.
But even so, the Qing dogs are still fighting very hard... Because the war is not only determined by the momentum! Not to mention that the 20,000 Ming Army who fought this time can definitely be regarded as the 20,000 strong army! First of all, these three general soldiers can be regarded as outstanding among the general soldiers at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and they all have a set of training and leading troops!
In addition, since these three generals were selected by Yang Shanlu, which Yang Shanlu admired and gave substantial support, Yang Shanlu had already given them all shotguns before the dispatch... Under the command of the three general soldiers, they have all used all improved bird guns!
Although the flintlock used by the Xuanjia Army is the highest military weapon and cannot be issued casually, the performance of the improved bird blunder used by the three general soldiers is also very good, far exceeding that used by other Ming troops. The kind of three-eyed guns, or other bird guns.
So now when the siege begins, under each city gate, there are a thousand Ming soldiers holding the modified birdblade, and they are shooting desperately at the city’s head, and then with the shooting density of a thousand shots of the modified birdblade, the city’s head The Qing army couldn't even lift their heads... As long as anyone dared to stretch their heads out, they would easily blow their heads like a watermelon!
Then these Ming troops fired to cover. In addition, under each city gate, there were 1,000 Ming troops pushing shield carts and erecting ladders to quickly climb the siege!
And now these Ming troops are really not afraid of death! Because they have been repeatedly indoctrinated before they set off... This is the ultimate battle against slavery! So if anyone is the first to attack Shengjing, aside from the various high-ranking officials, it is really worthy of history and enlighten the future, so this kind of aggressive attacking power...
"Hold it! Let me stand it all!" I have to say that the Ming army attacked bravely, but the Qing army also did not retreat! This is a life-and-death contest between the two nations, and neither side has a retreat!
So when the battle started, the battle was going to a fever pitch! After the gunshots of the Ming army rang, they never stopped! Even the improved bird bludgeon, which is known for its excellent production, began to hit the gun after hitting it, so this level of intensity...
Then the Ming army devoted all their efforts, and the Qing army was also not idle, even including Dorgon.
After learning that the Ming army came on the offensive so fiercely, he couldn't sit still in the palace, but ordered his Ge Bushxian to overtake the soldiers of the camp, shoot out his emperor Longzhu, and then patrol the eight gates back and forth. , So to cheer up the Qing army under subordinates... Hold it up! Must stand up! Because if you can't stand it, it's all over!
Then the remaining six to seven thousand Qing troops also completely aroused the blood, and they all fought desperately! There were even a lot of Qing troops who braved the rain of guns and bullets of the Ming army (the Mongolian servants also shot arrows under the city to help), resolutely raised their heads and shot arrows desperately!
And they shoot arrows from such a commanding position, so as long as they dare to show their heads, the power is still very good, and many Ming troops have been shot in the chest and head! Died in the battle under Shengjing City!
Even some of the Qing troops were in madness... I don’t know where they got a lot of*, so they tied it up and turned themselves into a human body //*, and then jumped down from the tower after lighting. , So get together with the Ming Jun and die!
After such a crazy day of fighting, the first day was finally guarded by the Qing army.
However, when night fell, Dorgon personally came to the front line to inspect and listened to the groans from wounded soldiers on the walls, including after calming down, the morale that began to decline (after this day’s In the fierce battle, the Qing army suffered heavy casualties, and even the strong bows and crossbows used in combat are not many... The sorrow of the exhaustion of national power is here!
Looking at this, Dorgon's heart is like a bright mirror... The Ming army is stronger than he imagined, and it seems that the fall is only a matter of time! But in any case, even if you can't keep Shengjing City in the end, you will have to give the Ming army the most damage! He can't make Mingjun feel better after he is dead!
It's just that Dorgon didn't notice that Niu Colu, who had been with him as his confidant, looked at this scene, and his eyes showed even more playfulness.
Then on the second day, the war continued, but by this time, the Qing army’s successor was already weak. They used to defend the city, and there were only more than 6,000 people in total. Then after yesterday’s fierce battle, there were already 2,000 troops. The slave is reimbursed!
And those who died in the first battle were basically the bravest, so the remaining Qing army, combat literacy, etc., had inevitably declined, and then the Ming army launched a fierce attack at the eight city gates at the same time, so the Qing army The army quickly fell into a state of full-scale beating. There was no more Qing army who launched a decisive counterattack in spite of life and death yesterday!
And because there were few Qing soldiers, the Ming army did not allow the slaves to rest once they started the offensive. They continued to attack from the morning until after dark at night, and then they retreated.
But when the fierce battle came down the next day, even Dorgon himself knew that he seemed to be unable to hold on...
After the fierce battle on that day, nearly 2,000 people were reimbursed. So now there are more than 2,000 soldiers who can fight. But like a mustard, the average of the eight gates is only how much each gate. People? Even a dignified Great Qing country, there are only so few people left
So Dorgon knew that it was time to make a decision!
"Niu Co-lu, you go to arrange it, we will retreat overnight!" Dorgon waved to Niu Co-lu and whispered.
And the timing he chose is still very correct. If he waits until dawn the next day before escaping, the influence will not be good, and the second one will be easily overtaken by the Ming army, so he chooses to go away now, that is the most wise decision!
"Yes!" Niu Co-lu nodded quickly, but his eyes looked at Dorgon with a hint of weird... But when he was about to go to'arrangement', the sudden change occurred at this time! I saw the Neizhi Gate in the northerly direction, and suddenly there was a shout of killing! (End of this chapter)
