Dusk has fallen, and seeing the sun gradually darkening, Dorgon felt a trace of sadness. Although the Dahua army had been repulsed, no one knew that this seemingly solid fortress was under Dahua's fierce attack.
Can you survive Ming Yao?
"I don't know how the fifteenth brother's preparations are going. There are 8,000 warriors in the Xiangbai Banner, plus I'm in charge of the White Flag. I think I can escort Dayu'er and her son to Hetuala."
Ergon was quite sure about leading the army out of Shengjing, but at this time he had not yet made the final decision on whether to break through tonight.
Thinking of this, Dorgon looked to the southwest. Until now, Hauge had not sent in to inform him, and he didn't know how prepared he was there.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty"
While Dorgon was waiting anxiously, a Geshiha hurriedly rode in from a distance. He came to Dorgon, got off his horse, knelt on the ground with one knee and said, "Your Majesty, I have paid you a favor.
The master's orders are to be reported to you. Now the master has prepared everything, and we can break out of the encirclement at any time as long as you give the order."
Dorgon recognized this Geshiha. He was a veteran around Dodo. When he saw this Geshiha coming to report, Dorgon asked: "Had, what else did your master say?"
Hard said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the master also said that he will come to you after dinner today to discuss the big plan with you."
Dorgon nodded: "I know, go down and report to your master, and say that I will be waiting for him tonight."
"Hey, slave, please retire!"
The Goshiha bowed before retreating.
Dorgon was about to turn around and walk back when he saw Hauge leading Daishan, Azig, Dudu and other banner princes angrily walking over. Hauge came to Dorgon with a riding whip.
He yelled loudly and aggressively: "Dorgon, you coward, you and Duoduo are arranging their troops and horses outside the palace and preparing a cart. Are you going to abandon Shengjing and prepare to escape?"
Dorgon was startled, and then realized that what Duduo had prepared had been exposed, but he didn't expect to be able to hide this kind of thing from them for a long time. He would know it if he knew it. So he sneered: "Hauge, since you have already
I know, I won’t hide it from you. Yes, I asked Prince Yu to prepare something. Now that Dahua’s troops are approaching, for the sake of our Qing Dynasty, how could I not make preparations early? Do I have to inform you about Prince Su’s arrival?
Come in?"
After hearing Dorgon's words, Hauge laughed angrily. He pointed at Dorgon and said to Dai Shan and others: "Da Beile, Prince Wuying, you have also heard that the evidence of Dorgon's absconding in fear of battle is conclusive. Now
What else is there to say, we should immediately deprive Dorgon of his identity as the leader of the Zhengbai Banner, imprison him first, and then deal with him after we defeat the Great Chinese Army!"
After finishing speaking, Hauge looked at Dorgon with a sneer, thinking Dorgon, Adorgon, the enemy is in front of you, and you are ready to flee. Now I will see how you die.
Unexpectedly, Dorgon showed no signs of panic. Instead, he smiled and looked at Daishan and others calmly, and asked with a smile: "Oh Dabeile, do you think so too?"
"this"
Daishan and others looked at each other hesitantly as they entered, as if they were worried about something. Finally, Azig hesitated before saying, "Fourteenth brother, do you really want to abandon the city and flee?"
Dorgon sneered and said: "Brother Twelve, what do you mean by abandoning the city and escaping? Did you see me escaping? You can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense!"
Zhongru was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that Dorgon Jingran was still refusing to admit his guilt at this point. But since Dorgon refused to admit it, Zhongru really couldn't do anything to him. Who would let Ruijia hold the military power seal in his hand?
What? Especially now that Huang Taiji's life and death are still uncertain, the princes and ministers will not fall out with the two brothers Dorgon and Duduo over this matter.
After watching the crowd fall into silence, Dorgon softened his expression and then said: "Everyone, the emperor is seriously ill at the moment. We ministers should stay calm and don't listen to the wind. It's disrespectful to me."
The minister's decency, and at the moment the enemy troops outside Shengjing are pressing on the border, we ourselves cannot mess up first.
"you"
After hearing this, Hauge was immediately furious. This coward Dorgon not only refused to repent and admit his mistakes, but even taught them a lesson. It was really intolerable.
Hauge was about to call all the princes and ministers to denounce Dorgon again, but found that everyone was silent and seemed to acquiesce to Dorgon's actions. Then he was suddenly shocked and realized that things were no longer the same as before.
, In the past, with the pressure of his father, everyone was honest and did not dare to say anything even if they had any dissatisfaction, but once he fell, who would respect his elder brother? What's more, now
The fate of his father is still uncertain. If his father dies, Hauge really cannot imagine the consequences.
Thinking of this, Hauge felt a violent beating and horror in his heart, as if he felt something big was about to happen.
Just when Hauge was uneasy, a palace eunuch hurried over on horseback. He rode his horse to the crowd and immediately dismounted and knelt on the ground, crying and reporting: "Prince Rui, everyone
, Concubine Zhuang, please everyone to attack immediately, Your Majesty, Your Majesty."
At this point, the eunuch collapsed on the ground crying.
When everyone heard this, it was like a thunderbolt exploding in the sky. Everyone was shocked, especially Hauge, whose originally purple-colored face suddenly turned pale with a swish.
I don't know how long it took, but Dorgon jumped on the horse first, whipped the horse hard on the horse's back, and galloped towards the palace quickly.
Then everyone woke up and got on their horses one by one and ran over.
Two-quarters of an hour later, the palace in Shengjing was crowded with ministers who had entered the palace after receiving the news. Everyone's faces were filled with panic, grief, fear and bewilderment.
Huang Taiji died. He finally couldn't hold on and died after struggling for more than ten days.
Huang Taiji's death has brought up many things, and many people are confused. The emperor is dead, is it necessary to continue to defend Shengjing?
At this moment, Dayu'er was dressed in white mourning clothes, kneeling quietly in front of Huang Taiji's spiritual throne. Her beautiful big eyes were full of grief and confusion. Huang Taiji was dead, and she would become a widow from now on, and it would be soon.
I will leave her from now on.
At this moment, all the princes and ministers had different expressions. Some were sad, some were crying, and some were secretly relieved, because the mountain pressing on their heads finally fell.
Down. And more people are afraid, because they don't know where the Qing Dynasty will go after losing Huang Taiji.
Dorgon knelt on the ground quietly. Huang Taiji was dead. At this moment, Dorgon could not feel a trace of joy, because the important matter of life and death of the Qing Dynasty was still before his eyes.
Looking at the people with different looks in the hall, Dorgon understood that he had to make a decision tonight. Once Huang Taiji died, the people who could barely get together to defend the city would inevitably fall apart. Shengjing City was watching.
I can't hold it any longer.
Originally, Dorgon was not very clear about the future fate of the Qing Dynasty. It turned out that the Qing Dynasty could continue to take advantage of the Ming Dynasty because the Ming Dynasty was too weak. It was so weak that it was difficult to even maintain its own rule.
Only then did the Manchu Qing Dynasty continue to plunder him.
But as long as the Han Dynasty established a unified political power and had an emperor who was not too stupid, the Qing Dynasty's national power would not be able to defeat the Han Dynasty.
In terms of the entrance, the Han Dynasty was a hundred times more powerful than the Qing Dynasty. In terms of national power, the Qing Dynasty could not match even one finger of the Han Dynasty. The Han Dynasty could lose once, ten times, or even dozens of times, as long as they gave them a little
Time, they can start over, but as for the Qing Dynasty, it only needs to lose once. This is the gap between the two sides, because it is not an order of magnitude at all.
"No, I have to leave tonight! Otherwise, I will die here."
Dorgon secretly made up his mind. He understood that if he continued to stay in Shengjing, he would be dead. And he still had Zhengbai Banner and Xiangbai Banner with nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses in his hands. As long as he could break out of the city, he could still fight in He
Tuala is making a comeback, but even if it doesn't work out, it can settle down in a corner.
Thinking of this, his eyes met with Duduo's. Both sides saw what the other meant and nodded slightly. Beside them, many Manchu generals also had the same idea.
Night slowly enveloped the earth, and the crowded capital city of Shengjing was silent, with only the faint torchlight on the city wall and groups of Qing soldiers patrolling.
At midnight, groups of Qing soldiers wearing white armor quietly came outside the north gate. The north door quietly opened, and groups of Qing soldiers slowly walked out.
All the people were silent, and even the horses were covered with cages. Although they all knew that this would never be hidden from the large Chinese horses outside the city, all the people carefully slowed down their pace.
In the middle of this team of cavalry, there are more than ten large carts. The cavalry here are probably important objects, and they are surrounded by cavalry.
Dorgon was riding a war horse around these carts. He looked around. Although there was no one around him, he always felt that there was a pair of invisible eyes staring at him. This feeling made him feel extremely uncomfortable.
.
"Brother Fourteen, let's go!" Duduo caught up from behind and whispered to Dorgon.
"Okay, let's go!" Dorgon nodded, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and rode forward.
Just when everyone walked out of the city gate less than a mile away, streaks of fire suddenly appeared in front of them, and then piles of fires were lit, and the entire night sky seemed to turn red. A loud voice rang out, "
Hahaha, you dog Tatars, I, Li Yuan, have been waiting for you for a long time under the orders of Governor Li, why don't you die quickly!"
As the loud voice sounded, bursts of rapid horse hoofbeats also came from the east. Dorgon's face suddenly changed. He knew that what he was most worried about had happened. He pulled out his long knife and shouted loudly:
"Warriors of the Qing Dynasty, their life and death depend on this one move, rush o!"
Soon, bursts of loud shouts of killing resounded through the night sky
