Daishan's body was carried over.

A flintlock bullet was shot from Daishan's neck. This is probably the cause of Daishan's death. The body has not been washed, and there is a lot of blood on his face. If it is not because Daishan wears a golden helmet and is too old However, the soldiers would not realize that the killed Houjin tartar was Houjin's number one Prince Li.

Looking at Daishan's eyes that were open even before he died, Su Tiancheng shook his head.

"Daishan, I know that you don't want to die with peace, but you can't stop the trend of history. Huang Taiji has nothing to do, and Houjin has nothing to do. In the end, I will completely wipe out Houjin."

Strange to say, after Su Tiancheng said this, Dai Shan's eyes closed.

Su Tiancheng ordered Daishan to be buried generously.

For a time, this story was widely circulated among the soldiers of the Jiangning Camp. Even the heavy casualties caused by the capture of Guangning, no one deliberately paid attention to it. Everyone believed that Houjin would definitely perish, and even the dead Daishan They all felt that there was no way to stop them, and the fighting spirit of many soldiers was greatly increased.

The news of Yaozhou's attack was also reported.

Hong Chengchou led the army and captured Yaozhou City in one day. The Houjin Tartars guarding the city fell apart under the attack of the latest tactics of the Jiangning Camp and were completely defeated. Hong Chengchou's next step was to take down Haizhou. Judging from the available intelligence, Dorgon personally led the army and strengthened the defense of Haizhou.

After receiving Hong Chengchou's report, Su Tiancheng smiled. He knew that the time for the demise of the Houjin Tartars was coming soon.

At the beginning, the plan was to attack from two fronts, and it was necessary to hold back the golden tartar.Huang Taiji arranged for Hauge to lead some of the Houjin Tatars to station in Fushun and Tieling. Su Tiancheng knew that this was Huang Taiji's backhand. Once Shenyang fell, Hauge would lead the Houjin Tartars. elite.Retreat from the direction of Sarhu or Kaiyuan, retreat into the black mountains and white waters, take advantage of the favorable terrain, continue to resist stubbornly, and avoid the destruction of Houjin.

Although this arrangement attracted the attention of the imperial court, Su Tiancheng didn't take it seriously. Once Houjin's elite troops were wiped out, some Houjin tartars led by Hauge would not be far away.Although they fled towards Hou Jinfa's old nest, trying to rely on the advantages of terrain to resist, it is a pity that Haoge is not as brave as Nurhachi and Huang Taiji. They lost Shenyang, most of the army was wiped out, and retreated to the Zhenbeiguan area. If there is no material support, it is difficult to support.

It is advisable to use the remaining courage to chase the poor bandits.It is Su Tiancheng's principle not to be known as the overlord.Eliminate all evil and do not leave the slightest hidden danger. The mighty Jiangning battalion will be in hot pursuit. Hauge will lead the Houjin Tatars to either surrender or jump into the river to feed the fish and shrimp.

The progress of the battle went very smoothly.The Zhenghong Banner and Xianghong Banner led by Daishan were completely wiped out. The Zhengbai Banner and Xiangbai Banner led by Dorgon were also deployed in Haizhou. Sergeants who rely on half of the Eight Banners.All will be wiped out, including the most valiant Zhengbai Banner and Xiangbai Banner. I am afraid that by that time, Huang Taiji will be powerless to recover.

After occupying Guangning, Su Tiancheng personally issued an order that the soldiers only had two days to rest and recuperate, and the army was about to cross the Liao River and attack Shenyang directly.

Just when Su Tiancheng issued the order to prepare to attack Shenyang, Huang Taiji also learned that the Jiangning Battalion was attacking from Yaozhou and Liaodong. This caught Huang Taiji off guard. According to the deployment, the key forces of the Qing Dynasty were concentrated in Liaodong. The area is to protect Shenyang, but the Jiangning battalion launches attacks from two directions. Once Guangning and Haizhou are occupied, it is like two iron tongs, firmly holding Shenyang's neck, especially Anshan and Liaoyang in the direction of Haizhou. If it is lost, Shenyang will become a lonely city with nothing to rely on.

Just when Huang Taiji began to consider urgently adjusting his deployment, bad news came one after another.

In just one day, the Jiangning Battalion captured Yaozhou. The [-] soldiers stationed in Yaozhou were all killed. Three days later, Guangning fell. Forced to lead the main force of Zhengbai Banner and Xiangbai Banner, stationed in Haizhou, and fought to the death with Jiangning Battalion.

What made Huang Taiji even more unbearable was that Prince Li Daishan was killed in battle.

Huang Taiji couldn't imagine how brave the Jiangning Battalion was, why they were able to take down Guangning and Yaozhou in such a short period of time, and more than 5 soldiers of the Eight Banners disappeared like this. Needless to say, the Han Eight Banners stationed in Xipingbao and Yizhou, I am afraid that the only fate left is to surrender.

After finally mustering up his energy to direct the battle personally, Huang Taiji suddenly fell into a coma for a short time.

After waking up, Huang Taiji's hair and beard were all white, perhaps he had already thought of his upcoming fate.

Chaos broke out in Shenyang City. Those Manchu nobles who were aggressive and wanted to fight to the death with the Houjin Tartars were collectively speechless at this time, and no one continued to talk big. Even Azig, who had been unconvinced, learned that he was stationed in Guangning When Daishan, Prince of Li, died in battle and the entire army of [-] was wiped out, he sat down on the ground and didn't speak for a long time.

Hauge led some sergeants from the Zhenghuang Banner, Xianghuang Banner and Zhenglan Banner, a total of 2 soldiers, stationed between Tieling and Fushun. The heavy responsibility of defending Shenyang naturally fell on Huang Taiji and Jierhalang.

Huang Taiji wrote to Hauge again, asking Hauge to stand firm and never send troops to support Shenyang. At the end of the letter, Huang Taiji finally told Hauge that once Shenyang fell, Hauge would lead the soldiers to quickly move towards Zhenbei Pass. direction to retreat.

It is very difficult for Huang Taiji to decide whether to dismiss the members of the royal family in Shenyang. The members of the royal family will stay in Shenyang. Once the Jiangning camp captures Shenyang, everyone will become prisoners. Withdrawing from Shenyang now will undoubtedly send out a very bad signal, and it will be the biggest blow to the army defending Shenyang. I am afraid that there will not be much morale during the battle.

Huang Taiji finally gritted his teeth and decided that the members of the royal family would not evacuate for the time being. Once Shenyang could no longer hold on, he would consider whether to evacuate quickly.

It's a pity that Huang Taiji forgot one thing, that is, both Yaozhou and Guangning fell within a very short period of time, and the previous situation where the siege battle lasted for several months or even a year would never happen again.

Chongzheng Hall.

Jierharang looked serious.

"Prince Zheng, I will entrust you with the important task of guarding Shenyang. The warriors of Zhenghuang Banner, Xianghuang Banner, Zhenglan Banner and Xianglan Banner are all under your command. You will make all the deployment and defense. It is decided that all the soldiers of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty will also be controlled by you, and the army of more than one hundred thousand guards Shenyang.

"Your Majesty, I will do my best to fulfill my mission, but I have a request, and I beg your Majesty's permission."

"If Prince Zheng has any request, just say so, and I will definitely grant it."

"I implore the emperor to take the empress, the imperial concubine, and many Belle children to evacuate Shenyang and avoid it temporarily, so that I can make a comprehensive deployment."

Huang Taiji stared at Jierhalang, he was stunned for a while, and a wry smile appeared on his face.

"I understand what you mean, but at such a critical moment, how could I leave Shenyang? My family members must stay here even more. If I leave, it will be difficult for Prince Zheng to command the battle. This matter, I think Don't mention it."

"The consolation of the emperor and the empress is related to the safety of my Qing Dynasty. It is completely possible to avoid it temporarily. I think the warriors of the Qing Dynasty can understand it. If the emperor insists on staying in Shenyang, I will not let go. "

"Prince Zheng, I understand what you mean, I appreciate your kindness, but at such a critical moment, I will never leave Shenyang. It is impossible for Batulu of the Qing Dynasty to escape in battle. That is a coward's performance. As the emperor, if I take such a move, it will be a disgrace to the Qing Dynasty, so there is no need to mention this matter."

Huang Taiji's attitude was very resolute, and Jierhalang sighed and couldn't continue talking.

In fact, Hauge was stationed in Tieling and Fushun. This is the suggestion put forward by Jierhalang. The management of Tieling is very important, including Zhenbei Pass, which must be guarded by someone. Jierhalang directly suggested that Crown Prince Hauge be responsible for guarding it.

Huang Taiji and Jierhalang discussed for a long time, during which there were even disputes. Jierhalang, who has always been calm and wise, argued hard in front of Huang Taiji, stated his own opinions, and finally made Huang Taiji understand When we arrive, we must prepare for the way out, and don't take into account the knowledge of many Manchu nobles. Many Manchu nobles don't understand the real situation, they just know how to be brave and ruthless, and make decisions with enthusiasm.

Facts have proved that Jierhalang's opinion is very correct. Guangning City fell completely in three days, and the [-] troops stationed there were wiped out. The final outcome is the annihilation of the entire army, replaced by the complete destruction of the Qing Dynasty.

It's a pity that Jierhalang's awakening was also very late, or the fate of the Qing Dynasty was already doomed when Su Tiancheng appeared in the Ming court.

Jierhalang, who accepted Huang Taiji's order, had the same idea as Daishan. There will be no eggs under the overturned nest. He is not going to evade. He will station himself in Shenyang and fight with the Jiangning camp until the end. Day, that is, when he, Jierhalang, died. (To be continued..)
