Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 444 We Are King Qin, Not Escape!

"That's right, even the emperor knows that he can't defend the capital, and has already fled to the paddock in Milan. In my opinion, we still have to make plans early. Don't wait for the Ming army to increase, and we won't be able to run if we want to!"

"That's right, Fengtian's Aixinjueluo family's ancestral graves have been dug up, if we don't run away, maybe we won't even be able to go back to Liaodong!"

"My lords, Beizi, this capital city was originally owned by the Han people. Now we are Manchurians and have lived here for 40 years. It's no big deal to abandon it, right?"

"Everyone be quiet, according to this king, everyone has the same idea, but no one takes the lead, and there is no good excuse. This king is not talented, but I have an idea!"

Neerfu, king of Pingdao County, stood up and said loudly: "Didn't the emperor go to the Mulan paddock in the north, and the Ming army didn't sneak attack Fengtian. If the Ming army went south and besieged the emperor, the emperor would be in danger!"

"Why don't we all make a letter together, put our fingerprints on it, and jointly report to the emperor, asking to go to the Mulan paddock to escort him. In this way, we will have a good reason to leave the capital, and we can stop the emperor's mouth, and it is hard to blame him!"

"Great! The king of the county is worthy of being my old Zhuge of the Qing Dynasty, but this idea is brilliant!"

These relatives of the Eight Banners Emperor are overjoyed, this reason is invincible, we just want to be king, not run away!

Late night on September [-]nd.

Aixinjueluo Lukedu, Duke of the Zhen State, and Aixinjueluo Yunsheng, the Duke of Bububafen, led their family soldiers and more than [-] family members, and left the city from the side of the Anding Gate in the northeast corner of the city. down, and fled out of the city.

Naerfu, the king of Pingdao County, and three Fengen generals also led their family members, and fled the capital from between Andingmen and Deshengmen in the north of the city.

In the afternoon of the next day, rumors spread throughout Beijing that many county kings and Dukes of Zhen Guo led the escape from the capital.

Even when the banner people met, they would greet each other: "When are you leaving?"

"Let's go tonight, why don't we go together? If we don't leave, I'm afraid Ming Yao will break the city, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave!"

"Then it's a deal. See you at Andingmen at the second watch tonight!"

As the crowd surged, at dusk, more than half of the bannermen in the capital were secretly rumoring about their escape at night.

It happened to be one of the three towers in Daming Circle, leaving an exit in the north, which was very suitable for escape.

The allied forces of the Ming Dynasty attacked Dongzhimen and Chaoyangmen several times from the east of the city, but they failed to achieve much effect. Hundreds of artillery shells were fired in rounds, but the city wall was still relatively strong, except for some bricks and stones and some potholes.

Therefore, Pan Aqiang changed his thinking: the city wall is not easy to fight, so first destroy the artillery of the Qing army.

The artillery battalion directly used more than fifty newly configured front-loading rifled guns to fire continuously.

Since the rifled guns were farther and more accurate than the Qing army artillery on the inner city wall, it didn't take long, after more than ten rounds of shelling, the artillery next to the two towers of Dongzhimen and Chaoyangmen fell silent. All the cannons were destroyed, but the gunners on the tower were killed by several rounds of artillery, and then they all hid around and stopped firing.

Seeing this, Isang'a, the Minister of Military Aircraft and Minister of War who was in charge of supervising the battle, was furious and ordered the supervising team to station directly on the tower. As long as the artillery escaped, they would be beheaded. More than [-] people were beheaded one after another, and finally stopped the Qing army from fleeing. .

Seeing that the artillerymen of the Qing army still had the guts to stand on the tower, Pan Aqiang decided to do something scary.

As a result, nearly a hundred black whirlwind rockets soared into the sky, landed on the city wall like locusts, and then exploded suddenly. The Qing army on the city tower was blown up to howl like ghosts and wolves.

Immediately, the Qing army's artillery defense in the east of the inner city failed, and they were no longer able to fight back.

It is not that simple to completely open the inner city wall, even if it is a nitrated gunpowder bag, it needs to be blown up three or four times!
I don't know how much the Beijing city built in the Ming Dynasty cost, so that the stone foundation of the city wall stretches to the bottom of the river!

Pan Aqiang recalled that the old capital of the Ming Dynasty was a giant, and there were many difficulties in blasting the foundation of the city wall.

The most difficult thing is to dig the tunnel, and I'm afraid it will be possible after another one or two months of digging.

However, Pan Aqiang felt that this siege battle did not necessarily require huge casualties and time for a strong attack. He planned to attack the city. As long as he continued to attack the heart, Shuntian City would soon be destroyed without attack!
The cannons were rumbling outside, but in the capital, as the cannons kept ringing, everyone's minds became panicked.

Located in the Prince Li's Mansion in the Xicheng District of the inner city, the lights are bright and there are many people.

In the study room of the palace, where several eunuchs guarded the gate, Prince Su Danzhen, Prince Li Jieshu, Dorobeile Erbo and other seven or eight people were discussing matters in secret.

"Is the manpower arranged?" Prince Li Jieshu is the oldest, and he is also the leader of their secret discussion today. Jieshu summoned everyone to the palace to discuss.

"Prince Li, everything has been arranged!" Dorobeile Erbo replied respectfully: "A city gate leader and two city gate officials at Andingmen are all members of my Zhengbaiqi tribe, and they have already agreed , open the city gate, and come out of the city with us.”

"Very good!" Jie Shu looked a little hesitant, and gritted his teeth: "Prince Yu doesn't want to live anymore, so don't drag us to seek death with him. Since he wants to seek death, let him die happily. Today we In the evening, go to Mulan Paddock to serve the king!"

Prince Su Danzhen also gritted his teeth and said: "If you don't leave, I'm afraid it will be too late. According to those servants, Ming Yao is already attacking violently from the outer city in the east, and the Dongzhi Gate and Chaoyang Gate in the east of the city are already hard to defend! "

"That's right, the tens of thousands of Eight Banners' new troops in the capital are all helpers. If they were as brave as they were when the Eight Banners entered the customs, they wouldn't be reduced to this level!"

"There are too many Han Chinese in the new army, of course they are trash!"

It is true that the new army has been wronged here. It is simply that the Ming army is too strong, and the Eight Banners new army will definitely beat the old Eight Banners army.

"Not much gossip, everyone, let's go back and prepare earlier. At the second watch tonight, the Anding Gate will open, and everyone will go out of the city together."

In the early hours of September [-]th.

At the Anding Gate on the northeast side of the capital, a few black shadows flashed, and birds began to sing a few times. On the tower of the Anding Gate, torches were lit.

Soon, the security door creaked open.

In the streets and alleys of the city, a large group of people suddenly emerged, carefully driving the carriage, leading the mules and horses, and came to the gate of the city.

Immediately afterwards, more and more carriages and figures appeared in the streets and alleys in the northeast corner of the inner city.

"Dorobeile, the slaves have already sent people to investigate. There are no demons outside the city, so you can leave the city with peace of mind!" The city gate guard saw a middle-aged man riding a tall horse appear, and hurried forward to pay his respects.

"Very good! You did a good job this time! When you follow Ben Baylor to serve the king, there will be rewards." After finishing speaking, the middle-aged man shouted loudly behind him: "My lords, hurry up and get out of the city!"

With a pinch of his feet, he led a group of followers behind him to the outside of the city.

I saw bright lights in front of the Anding Gate, and a lot of people's voices.

The Anding Gate was wide open, and thousands of Qing soldiers, lighting torches, driving carriages and carrying parcels, hurried out of the city.
