Ancestors, please don't crawl out again.

Chapter 69: Deep Love between Grandparents and Grandchildren
A month later.

"The Qing Dynasty finally perished."

Yang Feng sat in the empty palace hall of my great Qing Dynasty and sighed.

Sister Dayuer and Jirgalang offered no resistance...

To be precise, they did not follow Dorgon's plan and return to Shenyang to take charge.

They might have considered this before reaching Shanhaiguan, but afterward, they completely disregarded it. Facing the dragon spewing blue flames from the sky and the streaks of lightning, Sister Dayu'er and her surviving subjects were completely terrified. Furthermore, with their current population outside the Great Wall, they didn't need a city like Liaoshen. After clearing out supplies from Liaoshen and other places, they retreated directly to Hetuala.

Even our Qing Dynasty is already dead in name only.

They all ran away. After all, it was too dangerous to follow Sister Dayuer.

They were originally unified by force through conquering various tribes under the command of Wild Boar Skin.

Many of them still have grudges.

Yehe tribe.

Hada tribe.

……

In the past, when people were living a comfortable life with the Qing Dynasty, of course no one thought about the future.

But now my Qing Dynasty has no future at all.

On the contrary, if we continue to serve under the banner of the Qing Dynasty, we will still have to face that terrifying demon.

Let’s break up!
The Eight Banners that retreated to the outer reaches of the Great Wall did not, as Dorgon had hoped, continue to hold high the banner of the Qing Dynasty outside the Great Wall, thus giving the gentry inside the Great Wall some illusions. Instead, they simply scattered. Almost from the moment they set foot outside Shanhaiguan, they were constantly fleeing. The Eight Banner Mongols fled to the Rehe Mountains and western Liaoning, while the Eight Banner Manchus fled to northern Liaoning and the Yehe Mountains.

Eight Banner Han Army...

Of course, the cannon fodder such as the Eight Banners Han Army were not among those to be withdrawn.

They each returned to their original tribal residence and continued to live the life of their ancestors.

Many even grew their hair.

After all, keeping their iconic rat tails is like selling one's head.

They returned to the mountains and continued the fishing and hunting life that had been passed down to them by their ancestors.

Just think of it as a dream that a group of beggars had before!
Now I wake up from the dream.

Wealth and glory are just a dream.

The cardboard under the bridge is their reality.

"I used too much force and accidentally scared my Da Qing to death."

Yang Feng sat there feeling melancholy.

At this moment, a dull explosion was heard outside.

Even the hall was shaking slightly.

Of course, this is not a counterattack by our Qing Dynasty, but the guards are opening the boxes of Wild Boar Skin and Huang Taiji. Because they were too bored along the way, they can only use this to vent their anger. Not only Wild Boar Skin and his son, but also all the princes and nobles of our Qing Dynasty around Shenyang, all need to be opened and crushed to ashes.

Fortunately, there are not many.

After all, it’s only been twenty years.

In order to open the box faster, Yang Feng gave them a bunch of explosives.

In addition, tens of thousands of guards have already headed towards Hetuala.

Sister Dayuer and her son will be caught eventually.

Although it is somewhat dangerous to go deep into the mountains like this, it is easy to repeat the mistakes of Sarhu.

But it’s not a big problem.

After all, Sister Dayuer did not have an army as large as that of Sarhu. Yang Feng had already sent Shenlong to investigate. At present, the last batch of loyal soldiers of the Qing Dynasty in Hetuala were also fleeing. Sister Dayuer was sitting alone in the courtyard holding her son. Everyone outside was running away, and even Jirgalang was not seen.

Unless Jirgalang was bravely leading tens of thousands of troops to ambush at Sarhu, the guards were most likely just walking past as if they were on a picnic.

The door of the hall was suddenly pushed open.

Then Her Royal Highness the Princess walked in brightly from the sunshine.

There was also a giant dragon standing outside.

"Why did you close the door? There's no one outside."

she says.

"I want to be quiet for a while and think about life. What does Zhang Xianzhong say?"

Yang Feng said.

It was difficult for Longwu to convey his words to Zhang Xianzhong in a short time.

And Zhang Xianzhong might not believe it.

So Yang Feng simply asked his granddaughter to make a trip.

However, by this time Zhang Xianzhong had already arrived in Taiyuan.

Like Li Zicheng, who had marched north to the capital, he crossed the river at Longmen and then headed straight for Pingyang, where he caught up with Li Guohan, a Han Chinese general who was attempting to retreat from the Jiezhou Salt Pond to Taiyuan. Li Guohan, with his two thousand Han Chinese soldiers, fought a desperate battle, but his entire army was ultimately annihilated. Li Guohan was then beheaded by Li Dingguo in battle. The Pingyang gentry surrendered and welcomed the Lich King, who then reneged on his promise to spare them.

After all, he also needs to boost morale.

After massacring the gentry of Pingyang, Zhang Xianzhong marched towards Taiyuan with unstoppable force.

But they fought without bloodshed.

The army showed its majestic demeanor, so the gentry along the way also presented food and drink to welcome the army.

As for Wu Sangui, the King of Pingxi of the Ming Dynasty, he staged a drama in Taiyuan, let his subordinates launch a mutiny, and then he took 3,000 servants who were willing to share life and death with him, and finally broke through the siege and escaped from Taiyuan.

So he actually didn't resist at all.

It is estimated that he had been planning this for a long time. He was unwilling to send troops to help Dorgon, and he was prepared not to resist. After all, he now knew that resistance was meaningless. He could not be stronger than Ajige. Ajige's army was annihilated, let alone his. Besides, his subordinates were all Liaodong military households, and they did not have the courage to fight against Emperor Taizu Gao. There was no possibility of him surrendering. And his subordinates, who followed the hundreds of thousands of Liao people who moved inland, could not really follow him on the road. So he let his subordinates drive him away by mutiny, so that the 300,000 Liao people who followed him could complete the reversal of their status, and these people would surrender, which of course included the families of his close confidants.

This will save their descendants.

Even if the imperial court still wants to settle accounts with their descendants, the worst that can happen is that they will be given to their friends among the Liao people first.

As for them...

Just wander!
Live as long as you can.

Three thousand elite veterans with strong combat effectiveness could survive even if they were bandits, robbing Mongolian herdsmen outside the Great Wall, or even running to Korea to become horse bandits.
I'll see if the imperial court's pursuit slows down later and then find a way to reunite with my family.

However, this shows that the three thousand servants of the Wu family are truly loyal to him.

It can be said that we share life and death together.

In fact, they had no other choice. My Qing Dynasty had been beaten so badly that it was impossible for them to fight against Emperor Taizu. Even the Liao people would definitely turn against us when the critical moment came. In this case, it would be better to be a good person in advance and let them separate from Wu Sangui.

Of course, Zhang Xianzhong would not play tricks and kill again, and he did not have the ability to do so. Only 3,000 servants and some generals fled with Wu Sangui. However, among the 300,000 Liao people who followed Wu Sangui to Taiyuan City, there were 40,000 to 50,000 original Liaodong official troops, and they were eventually incorporated by Zhang Xianzhong.

So the Lich King now has an army of almost 100,000.

"He said he was thanking the Divine Emperor. He also said he was willing to recapture the capital for the Divine Emperor as atonement."

The princess and Yang Feng sat on the steps and talked.

“But he was too cruel. He almost killed all the gentry in Shanxi.

And they kill in different ways.

He divided his forces, including those he had recruited from Wu Sangui's former army, into five groups, and opened up cities across Shanxi. He rounded up all the gentry and wealthy merchants, killing them using various means, stealing their wealth and even dividing up their women. When he had previously marched north, he had agreed with these people not to enter the city, and they had given him money while he passed through. Now, they were all calling him a heartless man.

He is more cruel than you,” she said.

After all, Yang Feng just liked to throw the gentry into the cesspool.

Of course, it's almost the same.

So in the future, the story of the five-way massacre of Sichuan can be changed to the five-way massacre of Jin.

"The Shanxi merchants have no right to call him a ruthless person, but I have to admit something to you."

Yang Feng suddenly said seriously.

"Aren't you Emperor Taizu Gao?"

The princess said.

"Uh, have we reached such a tacit understanding that we are in sync?"

Yang Feng said.

The princess looked down on him.

"I actually live nearly four hundred years from now. I was chosen by a self-proclaimed god to retrieve your great-great-great-grandfather's two spears and restore their divine properties. This mission was completed long ago, but I'm having a great time here, so I didn't leave. But the new emperor is probably the King of Nanyang."

I will leave after he ascends the throne, but Han Xin will not leave.

Besides, he really is Han Xin.

I took the Overlord Halberd after Xiang Yu died and brought it from Liu Bang by the way.

But if I leave, I have to take you with me, otherwise it will be very troublesome if I leave you behind."

Yang Feng said.

It will be really troublesome.

As Chongzhen's only child, she is qualified to ride a dragon, which is a fantasy attribute in a certain sense. Especially since she will definitely get married in the future, her descendants will definitely be regarded as a kind of saint by the people, and such a family will definitely interfere in politics.

Especially according to his plan, his imperial guards would be dispersed in the north, bringing with them the northern common people who had been given land after the purge of the gentry, forming a political force guided by the imperial edict, and this political force would inevitably support her and her descendants. This would then form a clear division within the Ming Dynasty, which was not good. He needed this political force, but it could not have a hereditary leader; they had to be integrated into the Ming court.

Relying on the system of conferring titles based on military merit, this political force will have a huge influence in the officialdom.

Even influence the imperial court.

But there can be no leader.

If there is no leader, the emperor will need them, but if there is a leader, they are the ones the emperor needs to eliminate.

As for Longwu's victory, it was now a foregone conclusion. Although his plan had been exposed, the other three princes were powerless to reverse the situation. Prince Yi and Prince Gui hadn't even crossed the Yellow River. Although Prince Huai was desperate and commanded his troops to attack frantically, he only managed to capture Jining. The Qing army still had a series of cities to defend ahead.

Dorgon didn't care about Zhang Xianzhong, at least before Wu Sangui ran away, he really didn't take Zhang Xianzhong seriously.

As for now...

It's too late to take it seriously.

Besides, maybe they still don’t take it seriously.

He could defeat Li Zicheng, so of course he would not worry about Zhang Xianzhong, who was weaker than Li Zicheng.

But what he didn't know was that Zhang Xianzhong had not only incorporated Wu Sangui's troops, but soon Sun Shoufa and other troops would also go north to join him. Sun Shoufa and He Zhen had already recaptured Xi'an, and Meng Qiaofang had been set on fire by the two of them.

They were unaware of Zhang Xianzhong's previous northward advance, as they were besieging Xi'an. Zhang Xianzhong, using Ma Ke's surrender, quickly passed through Hanzhong, then crossed the Wei River from Chencang and headed directly north to Longmen, never even going through Xi'an. Only after crossing the Yellow River did he entice them northward under the guise of the Longwu Army. Although Sun Shoufa and the others had previously supported a member of the imperial clan, they now naturally chose the more promising Longwu. Therefore, Zhang Xianzhong would soon amass an army of over 100,000 in Shanxi and march directly towards the capital. Meanwhile, the Longwu Army had also secured support from Yu Qi and other forces in Shandong, effectively expanding its force to 30,000.

They would land in Tianjin and then join forces with Zhang Xianzhong to attack the capital.

Decisive battle with Dorgon.

As for the results...

It depends on their ability.

This kind of thing depends on your ability. If you win the battle of Longwu, you will become the emperor. If you lose, you will become a bridesmaid to Prince Huai.

"How are you guys doing there?"

The princess said cautiously.

"Well, except that I can't let you be a princess, otherwise that so-called god will tear me apart, but you don't have to worry about anything else. Compared to your time, it's not an exaggeration to say that our time was a fairyland."

Yang Feng said.

After saying that, he took out a cell phone.

"Come, I'll teach you how to play games. Ah, you can't play this or that. You're not old enough."

He said with a smile.

The princess curiously poked her head out and looked at the lit screen.

And at this time...

Sarhu.

On the main road leading to Hetuala.

"Now that you are here, I am the Holy Mother Empress Dowager of the Great Qing, and this is the Emperor of the Great Qing."

Sister Dayuer was sitting on a rock, looking at Liang Min who was walking towards her with a calm expression as if she had seen through the world.

The latter looked at her blankly.

She smiled seductively.

"You don't need to go to Hetuala. I've already set it on fire. Jirgalang fled to Kuandian with two thousand men. The others have all dispersed. The Qing Dynasty has fallen. Only mother and I are left. Don't you want to take us to see your Divine Emperor and ask for credit?"

she says.

Everything she said was true.

Thick smoke can be clearly seen in the sky in the direction of Hetuala.

The last group of loyal and righteous men of the Qing Dynasty, upon learning that Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty had personally led an army to Shenyang, could not bear the fear in their hearts. They abandoned their empress dowager and emperor and fled in all directions. Sister Dayuer and her son were left alone to watch their country end up in ruins.

In the end, she decided not to wait for Yang Feng to come to Hetuala, but to surrender herself!
Then I walked here and met the guards.

Liang Min looked at her curiously.

"General, I am the Empress Dowager of the Qing Dynasty. If you can treat me and my son well, and if you have any requests, I will satisfy you."

Sister Dayuer looked at him charmingly and said.

The biggest danger for her now is that these people may take the heads of her and her son back with them. After all, these people have a deep hatred for them. When she is not sure whether she and her son will be spared, it is better to kill them first.

Liang Min looked at her.

Sister Dayuer smiled coquettishly as if she was receiving a customer.

Suddenly Liang Min slapped her to the ground.

"Bitch, have you washed yourself clean? You're covered in dust and you still want to disgust this general?"

He spat at her and shouted.

Sister Dayuer covered her face and lay on the ground in humiliation.

"Tie them up!"

Liang Min shouted.

The guards immediately stepped forward and tied up the Empress Dowager of the Qing Dynasty and His Majesty the Emperor.

Sister Dayuer looked at the surrounding mountains and forests with complicated eyes. The rise of our Qing Dynasty was in this mountain and forest, and now, the actual demise of our Qing Dynasty is also in this mountain and forest. Thirty years have finally become a dream.
