Buried alive in the Qing Dynasty

Page 196

……

Whether the Great Yuan Dynasty and the Great Mongol Kingdom can return to the big stage of history is hard to say now, but the Mongol cavalry are indeed pouring into the inner city of Beijing from Dongzhimen like a tide.

Yang Qilong, Zhu Shangxian, Zhang Da, and Jiao San stood side by side on the urn city of Dongzhimen, looking at the Mongolians pouring into Beijing city while making strange screams, their expressions were cold.

The sound of horseshoes, cheers, gunshots, and explosions all mixed together at this moment, and it was impossible to tell who was who?Only the noise of "boom boom boom" can be heard, just like the sound of sea waves rolling and pounced.Inside Dongzhimen, the streets where Xianghuangqi and Zhengbaiqi lived were in chaos, everyone was shouting and cursing, all kinds of things that could be used as weapons collided together, making extremely chaotic noises.

The voice of crying also rose in an instant. Most of the strong men in Zhengbai Banner and Xianghuang Banner were taken to Henan by Emperor Kangxi, and they are now fighting Wu Yingqi's army to death.The few strong men from the Two Banners who remained in Beijing also served as guards, military guards, and various yamen in Beijing.So at this time, only some old and weak women and children who did not have much combat effectiveness remained in the residences of the Zhengbai and Xianghuang Banners in the northeast corner of Beijing.

Even these old and weak women and children have not been organized and armed... The city of Beijing is still far away from the front line, and it is protected by such a tall and strong city wall. How could the enemy rush in all at once?

Therefore, although the Empress Dowager Bumbutai and Prince Gong Changning, who stayed in Beijing, felt that their strength was insufficient, they did not order to arm the banner women in the inner city of Beijing... Although most of the banner women these days are in good health, Many of them also draw bows and shoot arrows.But arming them would make the situation too serious!

But the development of the matter was completely beyond their expectations. The Chahar Mongols who were supposed to stand firmly on the side of the Qing Dynasty suddenly turned against them!

What's even more surprising is that this usually stupid Burnie turned out to be very good!His people actually took advantage of the opportunity of heavy snowfall to approach the city of Beijing quietly, and also took advantage of the opportunity of Burni entering the city to relax the guards of all the city gates in Beijing except Chaoyangmen, and finally made a sudden attack to defraud Dongzhimen. He also raised Wu Zhou's black flag in the first place.

This means... Where is Burni?It is simply that Genghis Khan is alive!

And Yang Qilong, the "No. [-] Military Advisor in the World" who helped Burni plan all this, trembled slightly at this time, turned around and smiled at the silent Zhu Shangxian, Zhang Da, and Jiao San, with tears in his eyes!

Yang Qilong whispered: "It's done!"

As he said that, he turned around and walked towards the north side of the city tower of Dongzhimen Wengcheng, Zhu Shangxian, Zhang Da, Jiao San and others also hurriedly followed.

The walls of the city of Beijing are very wide, and you can run horses...not a single horse, but a group of horses!So three to 4000 people lined up on the city wall under the Dongzhimen city tower, which didn't look crowded at all.

These three to 4000 people just "helped Wu Sangui" capture a city gate in the inner city of Beijing, and also let a large group of Mongols "invited by Wu Sangui" into the city... Isn't this credit enough?

The big guy should be regarded as the founding hero, right?

When these three or four thousand strong men thought that they had achieved a counterattack in life, they had suddenly changed from a water worker at the bottom of the society to a hero who founded the country... Excitement shone in the eyes of each of them!

Looking at these people, Yang Qilong also seemed very excited, his lips were murmured, and he couldn't speak for a while.

"...you and I, Yang Qilong, are all children of my Great Ming Dynasty! Most of our fathers and grandparents are military households under the foot of the Great Ming Dynasty. Many of the people in the institute still have hereditary official positions. At that time, what kind of life did our parents and grandparents live? Even if there is no official or half-job, they are all good people with real estate and property... ...And what kind of hard life are you living now? Where have the properties and land left by our parents and grandparents gone?

Do any of you still remember how your parents were driven out of Beijing?

Does any of you know how your family's ancestral land was taken over by those Qing monsters who came in from outside the pass?

Do you know how many times your parents' generation was killed by those vicious Qing monsters?How many people froze to death and starved to death because they lost their shelter from the wind and rain and lost the little land that could support the whole family?How much flesh and blood did we lose in the Najiashen disaster 29 years ago?

Although I, Yang Qilong, was still a child back then...but I will never forget these sufferings, these hatreds, these hatreds in my life!And I also want the Ming Dynasty to come back, and I want to get back everything lost by my Da Ming Zhang Wu Bo Yang's family!Do you... want to get back your ancestral property? "

I took it for granted... But just now, didn't I still work hard for Wu Sangui?How did it become anti-Qing and Fuming all of a sudden?Where are we from?

In addition, Wu Sangui's soldiers are approaching, where are the old Zhu's soldiers?Is it still far from Beijing?

Of course Yang Qilong knew the thoughts of the people below, and he said with confidence: "To tell the truth, the army of the Third Prince of the Great Ming Dynasty has already gone north by sea... At most half a month, we will be able to land in Tianjinwei. I'm back! This Ming Dynasty is our own country!"

Chapter 453 Temporary Great Emperor!

Forbidden City, Shenwumen.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom..."

With the sound of banging on the door and the loud noise when the door crashed to the ground, the Shenwu Gate, the back door of the Forbidden City in Beijing, was finally breached by a group of Mongolian warriors!

The cheers of "Long live the sweat" suddenly resounded through the sky!

All the Mongolians who watched outside the Shenwu Gate burst into tears... There is no doubt that today is the happiest and brightest moment in their lives.Perhaps the Horqin Mongols and the three tribes of Khalkha did not imagine that one day they would invade the Forbidden City and rejuvenate the Yuan Dynasty, but the Mongols in the central Chahar Wanhu until Lin Dan Khan became the masters of the house, also survived Such thoughts.

Lin Dan Khan's official title is "Genghis Longsheng Khan"!

It's a pity that Lin Danhan's ability is all about giving himself a title and running away. He died in Qinghai without even touching the edge of Beijing, and then his tribe and his wife became the spoils of the Manchurian emperor... …

But no one thought that what Lin Dan and Genghis Longsheng Khan failed to do, his grandson who usually looks a little silly did it suddenly.

Under Yang Qilong's repeated exhortations, Burni took as much secrecy as possible this time, except for his brother Luo Buzang, two teachers, and a few Dutong and a Nai from the Chahar tribe who were reckless with him. Except for the county king of Manbu and a prince of Neikalka, almost no one knows about it.Even Burni's wife, Princess Shi Xinzhu (Boluo's daughter), who stayed in Zhangjiakou, was kept in the dark, not to mention the Mongolian soldiers below—they thought the prince brought them here to help the Qing emperor, but they didn't expect them The prince turned out to be a "true Genghis Khan", with great ambitions and ruthless methods, he restored the Yuan Dynasty suddenly.

This happiness came so fast!

Burni also cried, happy, excited, and unstoppable, shed tears of happiness, and then raised the Sulu ingot in his hand high.

The cheering Mongols saw their sweat holding up the Sulu ingot, they all stopped cheering, held their breath, and cast admiring gazes at the man holding the Sulu ingot.

Burni said loudly: "The warriors of Great Mongolia... a year ago, Zhu Santaiji (Zhu Santaiji) of Ming Dynasty and President Wu Da of Zhou Dynasty had made an agreement with the heroes of the world at Jiugong Mountain, whoever would enter Beijing first , who is the lord of the world! Now I, Burni, lead [-] Chahar warriors into Beijing first, this is where the destiny lies!

I, the direct descendant of Genghis Khan, the heir to the Great Mongol Khan, the Khan King of Chahar Ten Thousand Households, Borjijin Burni, now declare: The Great Yuan Kingdom has been restored! "

As he said that, he pointed Sulu Ding at the Shenwu Gate, and shouted: "Enter the Forbidden City...and become the emperor!"

"Long live the Great Yuan... Long live the Great Emperor!"

Amidst the cheers that resounded through the sky, Burni, the temporary emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, held up the Sulu ingot, rode his horse with his head high, and entered the Forbidden City from Shenwumen!

……

When the Mongols cheered like crazy and followed Burni into the Forbidden City like a tide, a bright flag of the sun and the moon also rose on the tower of Dongzhimen Wengcheng!

Yang Qilong exhausted his tongue, provocatively, and promised, and even asked people to bring out the golden gold as a reward to the people below, and finally won the support of those Cao Gang disciples who were coaxed by him to go on the road of anti-Qing and restoring the Ming Dynasty ...... Only then did the flag of the Sun and the Moon shine.

Unexpectedly, he was watching the flag of Ming Dynasty fluttering over Beijing city with tears streaming down his face, over there Dayuan had recovered!

He knows Mongolian, so he can understand what those Mongolians are yelling about?Immediately, his face changed drastically—the Qing Dynasty is not over yet, why is Dayuan coming again?

Originally, the Ming, Qing, and Zhou kingdoms fought for the world, and it was a good "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but now Dayuan intervenes, what is this?Want a table of mahjong?

Thinking of this, he hurriedly asked his deputy Zhu Shangxian to guard Dongzhimen firmly, and at the same time rectified the disciples of the Cao Gang who participated in the anti-Qing and Ming Dynasty.Then he took Huang Ji and Chen Yi, his two confidants, unfurled a Chahar eagle flag (which was given to him by Burni), and rode to the Forbidden City.

And when Yang Qilong was heading for the Forbidden City, Shang Zhixin and Geng Jingzhong, two "Zigan Zhou" had just erected a self-made black flag on the tower of Deshengmen Gate in the north of Beijing... They originally planned to snatch it. Deshengmen and Andingmen.But those Mongols came too fast, and they were all over the streets and alleys all at once.Looking at this posture, Andingmen, which is far away from Shichahai, can't go, so the two of them had to join forces and rob a Deshengmen urn city.

After controlling Deshengmen Wengcheng, Shang Zhixin and Geng Jingzhong asked their family members to make a large Zhou black flag—the word "Zhou" was stabbed on the black satin with a white thread.

While making the big flags, these two "Zigan Zhou" also sent their servants to knock on the doors of the old Han troops on the ground of the Zhenghuang Banner, Zhenghong Banner, and Bordered Red Banner in the northwest corner of Beijing, and used the name of the imperial envoy of the Great Zhou to pull People go to Deshengmen... really attracted some people!

In addition, many old and weak women and children of the old Eight Banners who lived near Deshengmen were forced to do nothing by the Mongols, and they all ran to Deshengmen Wengcheng with their families to seek asylum.Of course, Shang Zhixin and Geng Jingzhong also accepted all the orders.

And these old Han soldiers, old Eight Banners, and Shang Zhixin and Geng Jingzhong, who had lived in Beijing for half their lives, knew some Mongolian, and they were shocked when they heard the cheers of the Mongolians.

"King Pingnan, am I, am I crazy? I really want to hear someone shouting Dayuan Long Live!"

Geng Jingzhong, who was standing on the tower of Deshengmen Gate with Monk Zhixin and looking at the big Zhou black flag, really suspected that he was crazy—maybe his faking madness came true?

"You, you don't seem crazy..." Shang Zhixin was also dumbfounded, "I, I heard it too!"

While talking, he quickly took out a binoculars and looked in the direction of the Forbidden City.It's almost dusk now, and it's still snowing, so I can't see very clearly.I only know that many Mongolians gathered in the north of the Forbidden City!

"Could it be that Burni..." Geng Jingzhong said, "He wants to be emperor himself?"

Shang Zhixin has put away the binoculars, "No, I have to go and have a look... I am an old friend with Ama from Burni, and Burni should not harm me."

Geng Jingzhong asked: "King Pingnan, what did you say when you saw Burni? Are we going...to surrender to the Yuan Dynasty?"

Shang Zhixin turned his head and glared at Geng Jingzhong: "How can we surrender to the Yuan Dynasty? Don't we know the weight of Burnie? He's just too addicted, and he has to run away as soon as the president arrives! Let's just guard Deshengmen , when the President comes, we will be the heroes of the Great Zhou!"

"Okay," Geng Jingzhong nodded, "I will definitely defend the city well!"

……

The combination of Empress Dowager Bumbutai and Prince Gong Changning of the Qing Dynasty had already evacuated from the Forbidden City at this time, but they did not evacuate too far.

Before Zhu Di moved his capital to Beijing, Beiping City was originally a frontier military fort. When Beijing City was built, the issue of defending the city was fully considered.Therefore, each of the nine city gates in the inner city of Beijing has a small but strong urn city. Although the urn city and the main city wall are connected together, as long as they are blocked with Juma and Luzhai, they can become an independent fortress.

In addition, each urn city also has two very tall city gate towers, the inner one is called the gate tower, and the outer one is called the archery tower.Although the city tower is not as strong as the archery tower, it is also a commanding height from which one can shoot from above.

At the same time that Bumbutai withdrew to Zhengyangmen, he ordered people to control Xuanwu and Chongwen gates, and also ordered people to control the two turrets at the junction of the inner and outer city walls of Beijing. Defenses were set up on the seven gates of the outer city of Beijing.So she controlled the circle of the outer city of Beijing!

Although there were not many defenders, the Mongols did not carry any siege equipment, and they did not know how to attack the city.As long as the gates leading to the outer city of Beijing are closed, they will not bother.

So Bumbutai actually saved half of Beijing city for Emperor Kangxi...but what he saved was half of Beijing city where the Han people and the coated slaves lived!

Chapter 454 One City, Four Kingdoms, Eight Hutongs!

"Slave Shuntian Mansion Yin Jin Duoduo respectfully invites the Empress Dowager Shengan!"

"Minister Jiang Ligong, magistrate of Daxing County, invites the Empress Dowager Shengan!"

"Chen Wanping County Magistrate Shen Qizhi respectfully invites the Empress Dowager Shengan!"

When the dusk of January 14th, [-]th year of Kangxi came, the Empress Dowager Bumubutai, who had been transferred to the Zhengyangmen Archery Tower, finally met three very important "little people" - Yin Jinduoduo of Shuntian Prefecture And his two magistrates Jiang Li and Shen Qizhi.

These three officials were originally role-players in the original bureaucratic system of the Qing Dynasty. Even Shuntian Fu Yin, who is as high as the third rank, can be considered an old man in Beijing, where princes are everywhere and there are many princes like dogs. Several?

Moreover, these three officials have never used the nobles of the Eight Banners. Those who can be appointed are either relatively ordinary Han soldiers, or Han people who were born in the imperial examination.

Among the three people who kowtow to Bumbutai now, Yin Jinduoduo of Shuntian Prefecture is a 56-year-old old Han army, notoriously confused... because Emperor Kangxi opened his slave door in the past two years and recruited a large number of people The "new slaves" and the "old slaves" were extremely dissatisfied because of the suspension of the flag salary, so the job in Shuntian Mansion was really hard to do, and officials with more flexible minds avoided this job.Only Jin Duoduo was the most ignorant, he became the governor of Shuntian Prefecture for a couple of years, although he did a lot of ignorant things, but because he was ignorant to the point, he was quite stable as an official.

And Jiang Li and Shen Qizhi are both Chinese civil servants in their 40s. They were all admitted to Jinshi with great difficulty, and they have no background. That's why they got this kind of unlucky job of "attaching Guo Jingcheng"-there is such a saying in the official circles of the Qing Dynasty It is said that "three lives are unlucky, and the magistrate attaches to Guo; three lives do evil; attach to Guo's provincial city; evil is full, and attach to Guo's capital"!

The two of them are not as confused as Jin Duoduo. After being the magistrate for the past two years, they are almost suffering from depression. Not to mention that they have lost a lot of weight, and their complexions are also extremely ugly, almost as if they are seriously ill.

However, the two of them were quite agile. When the Mongols came in, they slipped faster than rabbits and were not caught.

And Jin Duoduo was not in the yamen when the incident happened, but was sleeping with his concubine in an outhouse in the outer city - this concubine was given to him by Fan Youying and Fan Wanwan from the well-known imperial merchant Fan family... …I didn’t expect that when I woke up, the city of Beijing would change for half a day!

The reason why it has changed for half a day is because the sky outside Beijing has not changed.

Since the weather in the outer city of Beijing has not changed, Jin Duoduo, Jiang Li, and Shen Qizhi must continue to serve as officials for the Qing Dynasty!

"Are you three here?" Bumbutai looked at the three officials who knelt and kowtowed to him, and sighed softly, "It's good that you are all here... you three know what happened in the inner city of Beijing Yes! Now the entire imperial court and [-] to [-] Banners’ family members have all escaped from the inner city of Beijing. But it’s so cold, we can’t let the big guys stay in the Wengcheng of Zhengyangmen, Xuanwumen, and Chongwenmen, right? ?Is there a place to settle here in the outer city of Beijing? It doesn't matter if it's crowded or the house is broken. But it must be warm and we can get together.

In addition, the imperial court has to send troops to hunt down thieves, and the Forbidden City will be attacked in the north... The soldiers, salaries, and equipment and armor, etc., you three have to help me figure it out! "

I have to say that this Bumbutai deserves to be the founding queen mother of the Qing Dynasty, and she is very organized when encountering military disasters.Not only did they not consider "West Hunting" and "North Hunting", but they were still thinking about counterattacks.

Bumbutai knew very well that if she ran away at this time, it would not mean that the city of Beijing would be taken by Burni, but most of Zhili would be lost.

At that time, even if Emperor Kangxi could stop Wu Yingqi's Northern Expedition, he would fail because of the chaos in the rear.

Daqing is really coming to an end!

Beside Bumbutai was a group of Dutongs, Vice Dutongs, and Canlings from each of the Eight Banners who had narrowly escaped death, all of them wilted like eggplants beaten by frost.

Now when I heard Bumbutai say that he wanted to "expedite the Forbidden City in the north", he immediately became more energetic.

Of course, before launching the Northern Expedition, you still have to settle down first, otherwise, it will be so cold, there is nothing to eat, and there is no firewood to make a fire, so don't freeze to death before you go out...

But where should these 8 or [-] people settle down?

The remaining leaders of the Eight Banners all looked at Jin Duoduo, an old fool.

"Empress Dowager," Jin Duoduo said, "the place to settle down is ready-made... There are eight alleys in the Dashilan area outside Zhengyangmen. Zhujia Hutong and Li Shamao Hutong. There are many ready-made hotels and restaurants there, and many officials who come to Beijing on business and work live there.

The slaves have already sent the people of Shuntian Mansion to requisition, and 8 or [-] people can live in it! "

As soon as he said this, the Eight Banners brains behind Bumbutai were stunned.

Well, let the queen mother, empress, and concubines live in Bada Hutong... How many heads do you have, Jin Duoduo?

But these Eight Banners brains don’t know how to tell Bumbutai...According to the regulations, brothels are not allowed in Beijing (including the outer city), so there are no women who have lost their way in the Eight Great Hutongs, only young women who have lost their way. elder brother.Can you tell the queen mother about this?

If the queen mother asks, how do you know?How can I answer that?

"Okay!" Bumbutai nodded, "Hurry up, it's good to have a place to live now, don't pick...one flag and one alley, and pick two more spacious houses for me and the queen to live in!

In addition, let the shopkeepers of the imperial merchants who have business in the outer city come to see them tomorrow morning... Tell them that they still want to continue their business, and now they have to pay for it! "

Come on, the grade of Bada Hutong will go up, and it will be changed to Baqi Hutong!

……

When Bada Hutong welcomed the new students, inside the Qianqing Palace in Beijing’s Forbidden City, Burni, who was about to ascend the throne as the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, saw the letter of Monk Yang Qilong who came in a hurry... Yang Qilong was brought by Luo Buzangtaiji, Shang Zhixin They followed Abu Nai, and the two were still staring at each other as they walked into the Qianqing Palace.

While they waited for Burni to be summoned, they almost came to blows.Shang Zhixin was so screwed over by Yang Qilong that he almost lost his head!

And Yang Qilong is a descendant of Uncle Zhangwu's family of the Ming Dynasty, and Shang Zhixin is his enemy, and he deserves to be executed all over the family!

Fortunately, Abu Nai and Luo Bu hid in time, and they were separated, otherwise they would really fight.

"My lord, what do you mean? How did you move the Yuan Dynasty out?"

"King Chahar, the emperor's hat is not easy to wear!"

Seeing Burni who had already changed into a golden satin-faced Mongolian robe, Shang Zhixin and Yang Qilong didn't bother to stare at each other, but asked questions together.

Burni knew that they would ask this question, so he laughed and said: "Heroes in the world, the first to enter the capital is the king...I, Burni, is the son of the golden family. The eagle on the grassland is naturally called a hero. Now And if you are lucky enough to enter Beijing first, you must be blessed by the Changshengtian, can't you be called sweat for the emperor?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Shang Zhixin again, and asked, "Are you my answer to Gong Shang's letter?"

Shang Zhixin hurriedly cupped his fists and said, "Xiao Wang is Shang Zhixin."

"Little Wang? Whose family are you from?" Burni asked.
