At the end of Ming Dynasty: I, Sun Kewang!Desperate comeback!

If he had made up his mind to surrender earlier, this wouldn't be the case.

Now that the Western Bandits have attacked the city, they must withstand this wave of offensive no matter what.

Otherwise, he wouldn't even have a chance to surrender!

Boom boom boom——

Thousands of red-coated cannons fired in unison.

Six pounds, twelve pounds, eighteen pounds, twenty-four pounds.

All kinds of red-coated artillery, under the control of the Qin army's gunners, poured out firepower crazily on Xuzhou City.

The ship on the canal is the guarantee and source of their firepower.

There was a bang.

A part of the Xuzhou city wall collapsed, forming a slope.

There was a bang.

An Eight Banners soldier was blown apart and turned into a pile of rotten flesh.

Under the fierce bombardment of thousands of red-coated cannons.

Tens of thousands of artillery shells fell into Xuzhou City.

The Qing army was blown up until they cried like ghosts and wolves, crying for their father and mother.

"Thousands of doors blasted together, this is the first time in history!"

On the dragon chariot, Sun Kewang held up the telescope and said energetically.

Since the birth of the red-coated cannon, there has never been a scene of thousands of cannons blasting together.

On the European battlefield, there are only dozens or hundreds of scales.

Even in the previous battlefields of East Asia.

The artillery used by the Manchu and Ming Dynasties was only of this scale.

After the Manchus entered the customs, the intensity of the war increased instead of decreasing.

The artillery battles between Sun Kewang and the Manchus, and Zheng Chenggong and the Manchus became more and more spectacular.

However, the scene of thousands of red-coated cannons firing simultaneously was the first of its kind in the Battle of Xuzhou.

In this era, the significance of a thousand artillery bombardments is no less than that of a thousand aircraft bombings in later generations!

Boom boom boom——

The Qin army's artillery shells seemed to be endless, constantly hitting the Xuzhou city wall.

Under the fierce bombardment, a large number of slopes appeared on the Xuzhou city wall.

Then small flags danced.

The gunners of the front army quickly concentrated their artillery fire on the slope according to the semaphore.

Giant twenty-four-pound and thirty-two-pound cannonballs were fired one after another.

There was a loud bang.

One of Xuzhou's city walls collapsed completely, leaving a gap.

Although ancient city walls were difficult to blast open with artillery.

Even later modern cannons did not directly blast through the city walls.

But quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes.

If quality is not enough, quantity can make up for it!
There was nothing a thirty-two-pounder couldn't fix.

If so, use two shots.

Two rounds are not enough for ten rounds, ten rounds are not enough for one hundred rounds!

No matter how strong the Xuzhou city wall is, it will be blown open sooner or later under the bombardment of such a large number of red-coated artillery from the Qianqian Army.

Soon a total of five gaps appeared in front of the front army.

Under the long-term bombardment, the various red-coated cannons of the Qianqian Army were unable to continue firing due to the heat in the barrel.

Sun Kewang waved his hand upon seeing this.

Around the dragon chariot, dragon flags were dancing.

First, there are temporary towns, new towns, and then reorganized towns.

The dense and endless Jiaqian army launched a ferocious attack on the Xuzhou city wall.

"Block it! Block it!"

When Ai'axing saw this, he shouted loudly and quickly led his own soldiers to seal the gap.

However, there are ladders on each ladder.

Muskets fired.

Bows and arrows were fired one after another.

Soldiers charged one by one.

Under the fierce attack of 200,000 front troops.

A large number of soldiers climbed up the city wall using ladders or rushed into the city through gaps.

The entire Xuzhou city defense collapsed quickly.

"Haha, Your Majesty, I will march down to Xuzhou with the help of the heavenly soldiers."

"I will call you Xuantong's son, Xiaozhuang bitch is scared!" Zhang Hu said happily.

"That's natural." Sun Kewang smiled slightly and put down his telescope.

Soon the resistance in Xuzhou City ceased.

Aixing tried to surrender with a white flag.

But the Jiaqian army ignored them and slaughtered all the Manchu and Mongolian soldiers in the city.

After all this was done, Sun Kewang's dragon chariot entered the city of Xuzhou.

After capturing Xuzhou, Sun Kewang's main force on the east route continued northward along the canal.

Yanzhou, Jining, Qufu and other places quickly fell into the hands of the Jiaqian Army.

The Liao King Feng Shuangli also led his troops through the Yinghuo Mountains.

One hundred thousand troops marched forward, and 60,000 men in armor entered Runing Mansion.

Luoshan, Zhenyang, Ruyang and other places were all in his hands.

And in another place.

One hundred thousand Dashun troops, more than 68,000 in armor.

Under the leadership of Xing Wang Li Laiheng, he also went north from Xiangyang and fought again at the foot of Nanyang City.

"The whole army is attacking the city. I want to see if Obai can come to save Nanyang a second time!"

At the foot of Nanyang City, Li Laiheng shouted loudly.

The Dashun Army was ordered to launch a second attack on Nanyang.

After three days of fierce fighting.

Dashun's army broke through Nanyang, Jia Hanfu gritted his teeth with his sword and finally chose to surrender.

The remaining ten thousand men in armor in Henan Province were completely wiped out in Nanyang.

Sun Kewang's hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses were overwhelming.

Quickly annihilated the Manchu Xuzhou Army and Nanyang Army.

The Manchu and Qing dynasties were ordered to have no organized troops to the west of Tongguan and south of the Yellow River and Daqing River.

Huaibei, Shandong, and Henan for a time. The Jiaqian army quickly swallowed up the whales with alarming momentum.

Urgent documents were sent to Beijing like snowflakes.

It shocked the entire Qing Dynasty!
"The Qing Dynasty is about to end!"

At the meeting of the King and Ministers of the Interior, Bibilong was extremely bitter and sighed.

"Now that things have come to an end, everyone is telling us what we, the Qing Dynasty, should do!" Xiaozhuang sighed with the little emperor Xuantong.

"Queen Mother, there is no other way. Wait until Obai comes back with his troops."

"Let's concentrate our efforts to regain Liaodong. Only in this way will the Qing Dynasty have hope of survival!" Yi Bilong said solemnly while holding up his hands.

"Qu Bilong, the edict for Ao Bai to withdraw his troops from Shaanxi and Gansu has been issued."

"Just in case we can't take back Liaodong."

"What should we Manchus do?" Xiaozhuang said solemnly.

Now the Qing Dynasty has concentrated all its efforts on fighting Zhang Sheng in western Liaoning.

However, Zhang Sheng, a Western thief, was the most powerful general under Sun Kewang, and his power was far greater than that of Wang Fuchen.

It even vaguely surpassed Li Dingguo after the victory in Hengyang.

Zhang Sheng defeated the famous king, although his salvation was not as good as that of Nikan.

But Zhang Sheng led eight thousand cavalry to level the grassland.

He also coerced a hundred thousand mobs and captured Liaodong.

They dug up the imperial tomb of Taizong, the great ancestor of the Qing Dynasty!

They also destroyed Dunbai and fought all the way across the Daling River.

The threat he has posed to our Qing Dynasty and the damage he has caused cannot even be compared to Li Dingguo in the past.

Now our last tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Qing Dynasty are fighting against them in Songjin.

Not to mention defeating Zhang Sheng, regaining Liaodong, and taking back the imperial mausoleum of Taizong, the founder of the Qing Dynasty.

Even resisting Zhang Sheng's offensive was very difficult.

If Ao Bai comes back from Shaanxi and Gansu, he still won't be able to recapture Liaodong.

So where should I, the Qing Dynasty, go from here?
"The Empress Dowager, never give up before fighting."

"When Ao Bai returns from Shaanxi and Gansu, our Qing Dynasty's 100,000-strong army will gather in western Liaoning and we will be able to recapture Liaodong in one fell swoop!" Yi Bilong said with great energy.

Xiaozhuang smiled bitterly when he heard this.

What's the point of talking about this now?
One hundred thousand troops of the Qing Dynasty gathered in western Liaoning.

It would be great if Obai could bring back 20,000 to 30,000 people from Shaanxi and Gansu!
One hundred thousand troops, one hundred thousand troops, our one hundred thousand troops from the Qing Dynasty!
"Ebilong, the Ai family is asking you what will happen to the Qing Dynasty if Liaoxi is defeated again."

"Now, there is no need to say anything else."

"The Ai family just want to know how you slaves are going to keep us two alive."

Xiaozhuang cried while holding little Xuantong.

"The Queen Mother!"

A group of Manchu nobles quickly knelt down and worshiped, terrified.

"Please rest assured, the Queen Mother, even if Xiao Wang dies, he will ensure that the Queen Mother, ancestors and the Emperor are safe!" Young Jieshu swore.

Xiaozhuang shook his head when he heard this.

Now, let alone Jieshu.

Even if people like Azig, Duduo, or even Dorgon and Huang Taiji come back.

I, the Qing Dynasty, am also hopeless!
"Don't worry, Queen Mother, even if you can't take back Liaodong."

"Our Qing Dynasty can also follow the example of the Northern Liao Dynasty in the past and send troops out of the grasslands to rebuild the Qing Dynasty in the Western Regions!" Ye Bilong roared.

As soon as these words came out, Xiaozhuang's eyes lit up.

Yes, we can’t go back to Liaodong.

We can still get out of the Qing Dynasty.

Didn’t Yelu Dashi re-establish the Liao Dynasty in the Western Regions?

Yelu Dashi can do it, why can't they do it?
"Then the Battle of Songjin, should we, the Qing Dynasty, fight?" Xiaozhuang asked.

Now Zhang Sheng besieged Jinzhou and marched to Songshan.

In order to prevent Zhang Sheng from entering the Pass, there are still a large number of soldiers and horses waiting for support from the Qing Dynasty in Songjin.

When Obai came back with his troops, he was asked to reinforce Songjin and relieve Jinzhou from the siege.

Or should he escort Xiaozhuang and Xuantong out of the fortress and rebuild the Qing Dynasty?

"This..." All the Manchu and Qing ministers hesitated.

"Queen Mother, wait for Ao Shaobao to come back first."

"He is the white jade pillar of the Qing Dynasty, holding the purple golden beam across the sea."

"We will definitely be able to make a perfect plan!" Ye Bilong said.

Whether it is retaking Liaodong or heading to the Western Regions.

Oboi has a great say.

Because the soldiers and horses under his command are our last hope for the Qing Dynasty.

Otherwise, there will only be the last few thousand old and weak men and hundreds of thousands of Manchus in Beijing.

Whether heading to western Liaoning or going directly out of the border, there was no success.

With such little strength, I went to Liaoxi just to give Zhang Sheng an extra plate of food.

But if we go directly out of the fortress, there will be hundreds of thousands of Manchus with a lot of property and only a few thousand old and weak men to protect them.

The Mongols will be damned if they don’t eat our Qing Dynasty alive!
Don't look at the Mongolians who were obedient and surrendered to our Qing Dynasty.

What if we, the Qing Dynasty, put our plate of food in front of their mouths?

These Mongolian Tatars are in a hurry to keep things safe than anyone else!
They are also Tatars, and our Qing Dynasty is very clear about the Tatars!
During Sun Kewang's Northern Expedition.

Under the hopeful eyes of the Qing Dynasty.

Ao Bai led his troops south from Yaozhou and successfully reunited with Yild and Zhao Liangdong in Xi'an.

At this time, the Qing army's strength was still around 70,000.

These 70,000 armored soldiers quickly headed west with all the hopes of the Qing Dynasty.

During this period, he learned that Obai was going to abandon Guanzhong.

A large number of Qin troops fled and mutinied.

Obai tried his best to command the Manchu and Mongolian troops to suppress it, but at this point, the morale of the Shaanxi-Gansu and Qing troops was beyond control.

Tens of thousands of Qing soldiers dispersed in a hurry, and even many Manchu and Mongolian soldiers felt desperate and chose to defect to Wu Sangui.

Because Sun Kewang had always been cruel to the Manchu and Mongolian soldiers, but Wu Sangui was very benevolent and righteous.

Only the Qing troops under Suksaha's command, Beizhi and Xuanda, were in relatively stable situations.

Because the hometown of these soldiers is not in Shaanxi and Gansu, and it is difficult for them to return home alone.

In this way, Obai's 70,000-strong army marched westward and dispersed.

By the time Tongguan arrived, he had only 9,000 Manchu and Mongolian soldiers and 2,000 Han Eight Banners left under his command.

There are 5,000 soldiers from Shaanxi and Gansu, and 22,000 soldiers from Xuanda and Beizhi.
