In the city of Beijing, war broke out everywhere, and everyone was fighting. No one could figure out who was from which side. Anyway, it was a mass killing. Kangxi and Dayu'er relied on their guards to protect them to the death, and finally fought their way out of Zhongnanhai. There were people everywhere outside the imperial city.
There were rioters, there were fireworks everywhere, and from time to time someone shouted that the Ming army was entering the city.
In fact, half of the chaos in the capital was due to the Ming Army's special forces, but Kangxi and the others couldn't tell the truth from the fake. They thought Fu Shou really had the overall situation in the capital. Now no one is reliable. They can keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood.
, the most important thing at the moment is to save life in order to make a comeback.
A fierce battle broke out between the troops loyal to Kangxi and the rebels in Fushou. Peng Chun, who led the troops to resist the Ming army at Yongding Gate, was shocked when he received the news. He was in a dilemma. If he divided his troops to rescue, the city gate would not be saved. If he did not rescue, the city gate would not be saved.
The emperor's safety was worrying, so after weighing the two sides, he still chose the emperor. After all, if the emperor was there, the Qing Dynasty would be there. Without the emperor, there would be no point in defending Beijing.
As soon as Peng Chun's soldiers relaxed, the Yongding Gate was lost. The Ming army opened the Yongding Gate and surged in. At the forefront were wheeled armored chariots, firing with great prowess. The red-shirted men were carrying muskets on their backs and wielding sabers.
The army cavalry rushed in immediately, and when they saw the man holding the weapon, they cut him down.
The Yongding Gate of the outer city was broken, and there was an inner city inside, but the defensive power of Zhengyang Gate was far inferior to that of Yongding Gate. Under the fierce bombardment of the Ming army, the Qing army struggled to support it in order to keep the inner city at bay.
People evacuate as soon as possible.
The city of Beijing is divided into the outer city. Han people live in the outer city, and the Eight Banners people and the families of Han officials live in the inner city. These people are most afraid of the Ming army coming in, because they have taken too many advantages of the Han people over the years. Now
The world was turned upside down, and naturally they were afraid of retaliation. The Ming army had broken through the Yongding Gate, and the Forbidden City was also under their control. The capital was no longer a safe place. A large number of Manchus packed up their belongings and fled out of the city. Fortunately, the Ming army only came from one direction.
Enter the city, otherwise they will have nowhere to escape.
Fu Shou's coordination and organization skills were not high, and it took him a long time to gather the command authority. It was precisely because of the unsmooth command pipeline that Kangxi and Dayu'er escaped from the capital through Fucheng Gate. Now he no longer cares about pursuing them.
The most important thing now is to contact the Ming army and cease the war as soon as possible.
In order to show his sincerity, Fu Shou personally came to the Meridian Gate to meet with Liu Ziguang to discuss the armistice. Liu Ziguang was also a bachelor and went directly to the city for talks. The two stood at the Meridian Gate where corpses were littered and reached the famous armistice agreement in Beijing.
The content of the agreement is: the two armies immediately cease fire, the Ming army stops in the outer city, Liu Ziguang gives up the Forbidden City, and ensures that Fu Shou ascends the throne. The Qing Dynasty will bow its head to the Ming Dynasty, donate countless gold and silver jewels, cede Shanxi to the Ming Dynasty, and allow the Red Army to cede Shanxi to the Ming Dynasty.
The Shirt Army garrisoned in Tianjin.
There were originally 130,000 Qing troops in the capital. They were a patchwork of troops. Their combat effectiveness was generally weak. Some of them were consumed by the siege of the Forbidden City. Fu Shou rebelled again. Some of them died in a fight on both sides. Those who did not want to follow Fu Shou's rebellion all fled.
There were millions of people in the capital, and after ten stops and three stops, Fucheng Gate, Chaoyang Gate, Anding Gate, Desheng Gate, and the East and West Gates were all wide open. The Manchu people helped the old and young to flee, until Fushou returned.
After grasping the situation, he closed the city gate and organized the people's flight. At this time, Fu Shou only had 20,000 to 30,000 troops, which was not enough to compete with the Ming army. Fortunately, Liu Ziguang was a man of his word and did not take the opportunity to fight.
Entering the inner city, he just insisted not to evacuate the Forbidden City. Fu Shou only thought that he wanted to loot the treasures inside, so he had no choice but to agree.
A large number of Manchu people and soldiers loyal to Kangxi escaped from the capital and gradually gathered into a torrent, which was quite powerful, with hundreds of thousands of people. Fu Shou did not have the strength to pursue them, and the Ming army was not in the mood, so they just sent
Some parafoils dropped a few bombs and fired a few rockets. Now they have eaten Beijing and it is too late to digest it.
The Ming army stopped at Zhengyang Gate and stopped attacking, but the entire outer city was already filled with Ming flags. The Han people, who had lived under the enslavement of the Manchus for thirteen years, were so happy and cheering that they all cut off their braids and threw them away.
On the street, they expressed their break with this humiliating life. As for the Eight Banners dignitaries in the inner city, they were busy holding meetings to discuss how to deal with it. The Han officials began to sneak out of the city to contact the Ming army, hoping to join Marshal Liu and make a living.
.
The situation has reached this point, which has completely exceeded Fu Shou's imagination. It turned out that he thought that he could use the power of the Ming army to eliminate Kangxi and reap the benefits. As a result, others used him to drive away Kangxi and weaken the strength of the Qing Dynasty.
All my efforts are to make wedding clothes for others.
At this point, there is no bargaining chip with Liu Ziguang anymore. The morale of the army in hand is low, the weapons are backward, and the number is not large. Even if the Ming army is parked in the outer city and has not entered, it does not mean that they cannot enter. Now they are just giving
Just for your own sake.
Even if he became the emperor under the bayonet of the Ming army, he was still a manipulated child emperor. It would be better to behave improperly. On the one hand, Fu Shou gathered the troops and appeased people. On the other hand, he actively showed his favor to Liu Ziguang and sent people to send him wine and cattle.
, the two armies of the Ming Dynasty had a temporary truce. Yesterday they were life-and-death enemies, but today they have become inexplicable allies, living in peace across a city wall. There has never been such a war since ancient times, not only the Han and Manchu people in the capital.
, even the soldiers, officers, and ministers of the two armies found it incredible, but this is the reality, an unchangeable reality. Fu Shou knew very well that he could not defeat the Ming army, and Liu Ziguang did not want to look too ugly. After all, there were a large number of Manchus in the Gyeongsang Province and Hebei area.
Killing them all is not in line with his style. Harmony and national integration are Liu Ziguang's purpose.
The overall situation was decided, and the remaining things were easy to handle. Liu Ziguang ordered Li Yan to lead the airship troops to Nanjing at night to rescue the emergency, while he stayed in Beijing to deal with the aftermath.
Fushou's Prince Xian's Mansion has now become the core of the capital. There are many cars and horses in front of the gate. The princes and ministers who are dissatisfied with Dayu'er's ancestors and grandchildren have gathered here to discuss countermeasures. It is not a problem for the Ming army to stop in the outer city. Everyone can't help but
Feeling regretful, I drove the jackal away, but a tiger came in. The jackal could eat people and spit out the bones, but this tiger could eat people without even spitting out the bones.
Fu Shou was sitting in the chief position, his face as calm as water. Listening to the chatter of the people below, he suddenly patted the table next to him, and everyone calmed down immediately. In this coup, Fu Shou showed his courage to make decisive decisions, and he also controlled the military power.
, now only he can lead everyone to deal with Liu Ziguang.
Fu Shou said: "Now the Ming army is stationed outside Zhengyang Gate. A city wall can't stop them at all, and our soldiers and horses can't compete with them. I believe everyone knows this. Now we have to surrender.
, we have to surrender even if we don’t surrender.”
Although these words are depressing, they are indeed true. No one expected that a coup would end up like this. Da Yuer was driven away, but he became a surrender. How will he face his ancestors in the future? So a
He was silent and worried.
Fu Shou smiled slightly and said: "Things have not reached the point of irreversibility. It is not easy for us to achieve this step. If Xuan Ye were in charge, I am afraid that Beijing would be a scorched earth by now. I believe that this result will not be achieved by everyone."
You’d like to see it.”
This is true. If Kangxi persisted in resisting, sooner or later the city of Beijing would be blown into ruins by the Ming army. After the city was destroyed, these Eight Banners dignitaries would not even be able to save their lives. At least now everyone still lives to sit together and their wealth is still there.
, relatively speaking, it was good, but the feeling of being a surrender was still not good, and everyone felt a little awkward.
Fu Shou suddenly said: "Have you ever watched "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"?"
This is pure nonsense. Asking the children of the Eight Banners whether they have read The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is the same as asking the Han scholars whether they have read The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is the military and political textbook of the Eight Banners for elementary, intermediate and advanced levels. Whether you are a child or an old man,
Read it all! I think back then Nurhaci relied on a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms to achieve success. Everyone here is an important minister of the Eight Banners. How could they not have read Romance of the Three Kingdoms? Not only have they read it, most people can also memorize it by heart.
Seeing everyone nodding, Fu Shou continued: "Chapter 18: Crying over the death of a king in the ancestral temple
Two soldiers entering Xichuan compete for merit. This chapter points out the way for us. At present, our strength is not enough to confront the Ming army head-on, but we can use strategies to make the Ming monarchs and ministers at odds, thereby achieving the purpose of reviving the Qing Dynasty."
Everyone knows this story. The Shu Han surrendered to Deng Ai, but Jiang Wei pretended to surrender to Zhong Hui, used Zhong Hui's power to kill Deng Ai, and plotted to rebel against Wei. However, during the Three Kingdoms period, it was Zhong Hui and Deng Ai who entered Shu, while the Ming army
It was Liu Ziguang who blocked the sky with one hand, how could he pull off this plan?
Fu Shou knew what everyone was thinking, so he stood up and turned his back to everyone, looking at the landscape painting in the middle hall, and said reservedly: "Subjugate Liu but not Ming."
As soon as these words came out, everyone understood and marveled at Fu Shou's intelligence. This son was indeed much better than Xuan Ye. It was a wise choice to support him as emperor.
Although it means that the army has not entered the inner city, it really doesn't matter whether they can enter or not. Anyway, the commander-in-chief's thousand troops have already taken root in the Forbidden City. If they seal the nine gates of the inner city, the people inside will not be able to escape.
Now Beijing has actually fallen.
On the top of the city tower, Liu Ziguang was holding the crenels and looking down at the city. Although there were still some remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, this ancient capital was already under his control. Perhaps to others, the city was just an ordinary building.
The south gate of the Imperial City, but for Liu Ziguang, this tower has a unique meaning. Standing on it, he can't help but think of the words "The Central People's Government of the People's Republic of China has been established" and always wants to wave and say hello below.
, I always feel that below is an endless sea of flowers, a flood of people, and the mountains are shouting long live.
In short, standing on the platform gives you a feeling of dominating the world.
