At this moment, a cannonball hit the city wall with a bang, making Shang Kexi shiver involuntarily.
Several gaps have been made in the city wall under the continuous bombardment!
The Qing army was literally risking their own lives to fill these gaps, but everyone knew that before long, a huge gap would appear that would allow the Ming army to swarm into the pass!
Don't hesitate any longer!
Shang Ke happily stamped his feet: "Okay, let's do it, but we need a shrewd and cautious person to quietly go out of the city to negotiate with Ding Yunyi. It's my turn to guard the door tonight, so I can let him out without anyone noticing."
.”
"I already have someone selected." Geng Zhongming said quietly: "I have a man named Geng Tianyong, who is my nephew. He is sophisticated and reliable. I can send him out of the city to negotiate with Ding Yunyi."
Shang Kexi nodded vigorously...
...
Another day of shelling has passed!
The city wall of Shanhaiguan was blasted with countless gaps. Although these were not enough for the Tiger Guards to charge, as the shelling intensified, Shanhaiguan's defenses would soon collapse!
At this time, Geng Tianyong arrived at the Huben Guards' military camp.
A surprise, but not a surprise.
When he was brought to Ding Yunyi, this was the first thought that came to Ding Yunyi's mind.
"Tell me, what are the conditions for their surrender?" Ding Yunyi opened his mouth and said.
Geng Tianyong was stunned.
He didn't say anything yet, why did the other party ask so directly?
"I don't like beating around the bush." Ding Yunyi said to him coldly: "Run out of Shanhaiguan at night. You are Geng Zhongming's nephew. Besides discussing surrender, are you still planning to assassinate me?"
"No, no, I don't dare to have such an idea." Geng Tianyong said hurriedly: "Yes, it was the prince who asked me to find King Wu Lie."
"Geng Zhongming." Ding Yunyi said calmly: "There is only one prince here, and that is me."
"Yes, yes." Geng Zhongming did not dare to have any rebuttal: "My uncle asked me to come to you. He is willing to open Shanhaiguan with Shang Kexi to welcome the Ming army into the city. He has no other request, only that King Wu Lie can
Save their lives. They had no choice but to surrender to the Manchus."
"Is that all you need?" Ding Yunyi asked calmly.
"Yes, there are only so many." Geng Zhongming quickly responded.
Ding Yunyi smiled: "Time?"
"Tonight at midnight!"
"Go back and tell Monk Geng Zhongming that you are happy to open the city gate on time tonight at midnight to welcome my Hu Ben Guard army into the city. If Shanhaiguan successfully captures it, instead of killing them, I will give them a big official job." Ding Yunyi said calmly.
Geng Tianyong was overjoyed upon hearing this and did not dare to stay for a long time, so he quickly said goodbye and left.
"Your Majesty, Shanhaiguan will fall into our hands sooner or later, why should we give an official position to such a traitor?" Ah Hu, who was nearby, suddenly cried out in great displeasure.
"It's easier to seize Shanhaiguan. Why not that?" Ding Yunyi said with a smile: "What's more, do you really think I will let people like Geng Zhongming and Shang Kexi go? Have you forgotten what happened to Wu Sangui?
"
The generals of the Huben Guard soon had smiles on their faces...
...
Monk Geng Zhongming, who had been waiting for news in Shanhaiguan, was glad that Geng Tianyong finally came back. When Geng Tianyong told Ding Yunyi the conditions agreed to them, the two of them were overjoyed!
A great official! Isn’t this what they are striving for?
"Do it!" Geng Zhongming said fiercely.
"Do it!" Shang Kexi said fiercely.
Now that the decision has been made, there is no turning back. This is their second betrayal, and they know very well that they will never get a third chance.
And until this time, Dorgon still didn't know that he had been betrayed by these traitors of the Ming Dynasty...
As time passed by, Monk Geng Zhongming became more and more happy. As the time gradually approached, something unexpected happened:
Tunqi actually came to Guanmen!
In fact, Dorgon was not at ease with these Han generals, especially at this time. He had already secretly issued orders to Tunqi. He was closely monitoring these Han generals and could not relax for a moment!
"How is the situation?" Tun Qi asked after carefully checking the defense of Guanmen.
"Back to Beizi, everything is considered stable." Shang Ke replied respectfully.
Although he was King Zhishun of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, he was nothing in front of these Manchu Beile Beizi.
Tun Qi nodded and his eyes fell on Geng Zhongming: "Why is King Huaishun here too?"
"Back to Beizi, I'm worried about something wrong here, so I came here to help with the inspection."
"Both King Zhishun and King Huaishun are our loyal ministers of the Qing Dynasty." Tunqi praised: "I will go back and report these to His Majesty."
"Thank you, Beizi." Geng Zhongming said while throwing a look at Shang Kexi.
Shang Kexi quietly slipped behind Tun Qi and slowly pulled out the sharp knife. However, Tun Qi did not notice the danger at all.
"It is estimated that the Ming army will launch a larger-scale artillery attack tomorrow..."
Tun Qi just finished saying this. Suddenly he felt a chill in his vest. He slowly turned his head, only to see Shang Kexi holding a sharp knife in his hand and looking at him gloomily...
"Good news!" Tun Qi cried out in despair.
"Beizi, don't blame us." Shang Kexi couldn't help but take a step back: "We don't want to be buried here with you!"
Before Tun Qi had time to resist, Geng Zhongming's knife fell on him fiercely, and then he roared: "Kill him!"
Countless knives fell on Tun Qi one after another.
Tunqi was determined to die without peace of mind. He never imagined that one day he would die at the hands of these Han people. He had never looked down upon these Han people.
But this day still came like this...
...
Outside Shanhaiguan, large numbers of Ming troops have completed their assembly, and they are silently waiting for Shanhaiguan to open...
The day has come when the Manchu Qing Dynasty will be completely destroyed!
King Wu Lie Ding Yunyi is always with them. No matter how injured he is, as long as he can still stand up, he will be with his soldiers!
Time passed slowly there.
Finally, the moment they had been waiting for arrived! The city gate of Shanhaiguan was slowly opened, and more than a dozen torches were swaying towards it.
Ding Yunyi took a long breath, and then nodded to the generals around him.
The generals slowly took out the swords from their waists and pointed forward:
"Advance. Capture Shanhaiguan!"
Encourage us to advance and seize Shanhaiguan!
On this night, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty issued the strongest cry!
The gate of Shanhaiguan has been opened!
Go forward and capture Shanhaiguan! Go forward and destroy the Qing Dynasty!
Everything, for victory!
The shouts and shouts instantly flooded the battlefield.
The day you have been waiting for has finally arrived...
...
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something big has happened!" Nikan rushed in crawling and crawling: "Geng Zhongming, I am glad to open the city gate and let the Ming army enter the gate!"
With a "boom", Dorgon's head was about to explode.
What he was most afraid of was the problem of these surrendered generals. But something went wrong: "Where is Tunqi? Didn't I ask Tunqi to monitor them?"
"I don't know." Nikan shook his head: "We lost contact with Tunqi, I'm afraid it's going to be more difficult..."
At this time, Dorgon had already heard the cry of killing. Before he could give the order, Duduo rushed in again: "Your Majesty, what should we do now?"
"Fight with the Ming army!" At this point, Dorgon had no choice but to say, "Dodor, with your people, you blocked the Ming army! I want to lead the expedition myself!"
"I want to conquer in person"!
After saying this, Dorgon himself felt that his confidence was somewhat lacking.
Not everyone can afford the word "I"...
...
The Ming army entered the city in large numbers. For the Manchus, the loss of Shanhaiguan had already happened today. All the Manchu generals knew what it would mean to them once Shanhaiguan was lost.
Therefore, all the Qing troops went into the battle...
The Battle of Shanhaiguan was the last large-scale battle fought by the Tiger Guards against the Manchus.
About two hundred thousand people gathered in Shanhaiguan. They were so densely packed that it was impossible to tell where was which. Everyone was fighting together.
Dodo was among them.
This general in the Qing Dynasty, who was as famous for his bravery as Obai, could not display his bravery at all at this time. There were people everywhere and fighting everywhere.
You can completely imagine the chaotic scene.
Duduo himself didn't know how many people he had killed, one by one, and his body was covered with blood. But more and more people rushed to his side, and he couldn't kill them all no matter how hard he killed them.
But no matter how hard you kill them, you have to keep killing them!
For the fate of the Qing Dynasty, for the future of the Qing Dynasty! For everything!
Duduo waved the knife desperately, and he had a few wounds on his body in the chaos, but he didn't care at all. In fact, he could not forget the image of Wang Weiyi in his mind:
No matter what desperate situation you are in, you can always fight to the end!
Since there was such a character in the Ming Dynasty, why couldn’t there be such a character in the Qing Dynasty? And this person is undoubtedly himself: Duduo!
During the melee, Duduo suddenly felt a pain in his waist. He no longer knew which soldier had stabbed him.
Duduo roared angrily, turned over and swung his knife to kill, but missed, and soon, another knife pierced his body.
Here, the space for muskets to be used is too small, but even without muskets, these Tiger Guard soldiers can still defeat the enemies in front of them!
Duduo fell into a violent state. He can't die here, absolutely can't die here! He must fight for the Qing Dynasty, and fight for his "Your Majesty"!
However, more and more weapons were coming at him. Duduo tried his best to resist, but it became increasingly impossible.
He smiled miserably, was his fate going to end here? He was not willing to do so, no matter what.
"kill--"
Countless roars rang in his ears, and countless swords and guns fell on him...
Aixinjueluo is the youngest legitimate son of Nurhaci, the third son of Dafujin Abahai, and the fifteenth among the brothers. As the most beloved son of Nurhaci, it is conceivable that he has been favored and arrogant since he was a child.
of.
As the legitimate youngest son of Nurhaci, Duduo's political status is very high. He was named Heshuo Ezhen at the age of six. He became the leader of the Zhenghuang Banner at the age of twelve and received fifteen niulu. After Nurhachi's death, Huang Taiji
According to the custom of the Jurchen people, the youngest son of an undivided family has the right to inherit, the fifteen cows owned by Nurhaci were given to Duduo. After the flag was changed, the Zhengbai flag held by Duduo was the most powerful and elite flag among the eight banners.
Duduo was also smart since he was a child. Nurhaci especially loved this young son during his lifetime. At the same time, due to the custom of nomadic people, the youngest son of an undivided family is called a Zao son. He has the right to inherit all his father's inheritance. Therefore, Duduo's political status has been quite high since he was a child.
In March of the fifth year of Tianming, Nurhachi deposed the prince Daishan and announced the eight-king political system. At that time, Duduo, who was only six years old, and Dorgon, who was eight years old, were consecrated as Heshuo Ezhen and ranked among the four Baylors and De
After Ge Lei, Ji'er Harang and Azige, he became one of the great bele with the highest status in Manchuria. However, other brothers and nephews with great military exploits did not have such political status, which shows the extent to which Abahai's mother and son were favored.
.
On the New Year's Day of the ninth year of Tianming's reign, the order of congratulations to the Khan can well reflect the political status. Duduo, who was under ten years old at the time, ranked seventh and accompanied the Khan to congratulate him. If we exclude the Taiwanese from Mongolia
Not to mention, among the nobles, Duduo was the sixth person to pay tribute to Nurhachi alone, second only to the four major Baylor and Azig, and ahead of Derge Jierhalang, while Yue Tuo and
Dudu congratulated him side by side, which shows Duduo's high status.
In the first year of Chongde, Huang Taiji proclaimed himself emperor. The 22-year-old Duduo, who had no great merits, was awarded the title of Prince Heshuoyu and was put in charge of the Ministry of Rites. Huang Taiji specially promoted and trained him, but he did not buy it.
, he resented the meritorious people that Huang Taiji liked; he sympathized with the traitorous people that Huang Taiji deeply hated, and opposed Brother Khan everywhere. Because of Abahai's care before his death, and because Duduo was Nurhachi.
The youngest legitimate son was deeply favored. In order to show the generosity of a benevolent king and brotherly brother, Huang Taiji forced himself to tolerate Duduo's various actions that offended him.
In February of the second year of Tiancong, the 15-and-a-half-year-old Dorgon and the 14-year-old Duduo went to the Chahar Mongol Dorote tribe from Houjin Khan Emperor Taiji, and won a great victory in Aomulun, capturing more than 10,000 people. The 14-year-old
Duduo joined the army for the first time and was awarded the title "Erke Chuhur" for his merits.
Duduo could still have done a lot, but history will never give him such an opportunity again.
Duduo died, died in Shanhaiguan, and died in the hands of the Ming army. When he died, his eyes were full of unwillingness, and he seemed unwilling to lose his life like this.
But he still died.
Just like many, many Manchus died...
The Ming army kept pushing forward, little by little, inch by inch. The Qing army gradually became unable to resist. During the fierce battle, the Ming army began to secure control of the city gate.
And this is obviously the beginning of the end for the Manchus!
When Dorgon learned about Duduo's death, his whole body almost collapsed. He simply could not imagine and could not believe that his fifteenth brother actually died like this!
How is this possible? How is this possible? In my imagination, my fifteenth brother will never die!
He sat there dumbfounded, not thinking about anything, not listening to anything! He knew that he was finished, the Qing Dynasty was finished, and everything was finished.
No one can save the fate of the Qing Dynasty!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" When Nikan appeared in front of Dorgon again, his whole body was covered in blood, and he could not contain the panic on his face: "Your Majesty, I can't stop it anymore, let's go!"
Dorgon shook his head and grabbed the knife at hand: "There is no place to go, Shengjing is lost, our Manren home is lost, and now Shanhaiguan is also lost, where can we go?
"
He stood up slowly: "Come fight with me!"
He appeared on the battlefield and saw everything in front of him, so he became even more convinced that the fate of failure could no longer be stopped. In this case, let everyone die here!
"Nikan, go ahead and tell the Han people that we have real warriors in the Qing Dynasty!" Dorgon said with a serious look on his face.
"Yes!" Nikan responded loudly.
Although he knew there was no hope, he still decided to fight to the end. Of course, it was no longer for the Qing Dynasty, but for himself.
What would be the consequences of being caught by those Han people? In fact, you can know it without even thinking about it. Since you will die sooner or later, you might as well use the knife in your hand to kill a way out for yourself!
This is what most Qing troops thought.
The soldiers of the Huben Guards pushed closer and closer, and more and more people poured into Shanhaiguan. There was no force that could stop them from seizing Shanhaiguan.
Dorgon stood there motionless and looked at everything in front of him. Only he himself could know what he was thinking.
He saw one by one of his subordinates dying in the hands of the enemy, he saw that his troops were getting worse and worse, and he saw that a huge and terrifying defeat was approaching.
There is no other way, this time there is really no other way.
He seemed to hear the sound of gunfire and cries for help coming from the direction of Shengjing. Why did he have such hallucinations in his mind? Was he really close to death?
Dorgon shook his head. Now all those hallucinations had disappeared, and what was presented to him was the most real and bloody killing.
"Kill, for the sake of the Qing Dynasty!" Dorgon suddenly shouted.
But his shouts were quickly drowned out, replaced by the most desperate calls of the Qing army.
The war has come to an end here! The Manchu and Qing Dynasties have also come to an end here!
