In the cold wind, Ashan rode on with ten Zhenghuang Banya soldiers. After everyone left the city, they headed straight towards the new army's guard camp. They were soon stopped by the new army's Ye Bushou. The two sides immediately became tense.
Seeing that the opponents were raising their cannons and about to fire, Ah Shan hurriedly shouted in Chinese: "Don't do anything!"
The leader of the army on the opposite side, the Ye Bu Sheng flag commander, raised his hand to stop the soldiers, and then asked loudly: "What do you want to do, dog Tatar!"
"I am Zhen Ashan of Gushan E, Zhenghuang Banner, Manchuria, Qing Dynasty. I came here to discuss peace under the emperor's orders!"
"cut!"
Ye Buqiu, the flag commander, sneered and said: "Negotiating peace? Who the hell wants to negotiate peace with you? Are you dreaming!"
Ashan's face was livid and he said: "It's surrender! I'm here to deliver the letter of surrender."
"That's right. I don't know what kind of situation I am in. I'm so fucking blind. I don't have any clues!"
Immediately, the commander of the Ye Bu Sheng banner said to his subordinates: "Go, disarm them, strip off their armor, tie them all to their horses, and take them back!"
Ah Shan's eyes widened and he said angrily: "This is unreasonable! I am the envoy of the Qing Dynasty, how dare you do this!"
"messenger?"
The flag commander rode his horse in front of Ah Shan, and the rest of the army also separated the ten Baya soldiers. I saw the flag commander who didn't close up at night directly put a gun to Ashan's forehead, and then asked: "What are you? I didn't hear clearly, you'd better say it again!"
Ah Shan was completely dumbfounded and did not dare to move. He did not expect that a small flag commander in Liu Yan's department could be so arrogant, so he could only say: "I am here to deliver the surrender letter. General, please lead the way!"
"now it's right!"
The flag commander who never stopped at night glanced at Ah Shan with disdain.
, and then led his men to bring the disarmed Ah Shan and his party back to the guard camp.
In the Chinese army's tent, ten Baya soldiers had been detained separately. Ah Shan was brought in alone, and then he finally saw Liu Yan.
At this time, Ah Shan's eyes widened in surprise. He didn't expect that Liu Yan was so young, and he felt even more painful for the Qing Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty was already sunset, but why did such a young and peerless general suddenly appear? It's unfair!
At this time, Wang Yue, Zhang Yi, Wang Bo, Chen Xun, Xu Ming, Miao Shao, Qian Qian, Xun Jingyun, Wu Guojin, Zheng Yi, Han Qin, and Shang Zili were all present in the big tent. Everyone had experienced many bloody battles. The generals all looked at Ah Shan at this time. The huge pressure made Ah Shan very uncomfortable. Even though it was very cold in the camp, Ah Shan was still sweating profusely.
"I heard that you came to surrender? There is a letter of surrender!"
Liu Yan said calmly, Ah Shan quickly took out the letter of surrender and held it in his hand respectfully.
Miao Shao stood up, took it away, and handed it to Liu Yan. He never opened his eyes to look at Ah Shan from the beginning to the end, which made Ah Shan feel very uncomfortable. Once upon a time, the Gushan Mountain of the Manzhou Banner of the Qing Dynasty was so majestic that the so-called elites of the Ming Army would retreat and flee without fighting.
But now in Liu Yan's camp, he, the Manzhou Zhenghuang Banner's Gushan Ezhen, is just like an ordinary soldier. He is so despised by the new army generals in the camp. Perhaps this is due to his strength.
Liu Yan opened the surrender letter and looked at it for a few times, then burst into laughter and said, "Why, now that you have an army of more than 300,000, there are still tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the city? Fifty thousand or one hundred thousand? Just based on that.
With such a small number of defeated troops, how dare you ask this governor to surrender directly to the Ming Emperor? Who will surrender is an internal matter of our Ming Dynasty. It is not the turn of you Tatars to pick and choose! "
Everyone laughed when they heard this, and Chen Xun said loudly: "Dog Tatar, the loess is buried up to his neck, and he still wants to get up and jump around, dreaming?"
Wang Yue said: "I think the Tatars are talking in their sleep. They started talking nonsense while it was still daylight!"
Ashan listened to everyone's laughter and was filled with anger, but he did not dare to refute. Nowadays, all the banners of the Qing Dynasty are already lambs to be slaughtered, and they really have no bargaining chips.
Liu Yan looked at Ah Shan and said: "You are Gushan Ezhen of Manzhou Zhenghuang Banner, right? Now listen to the governor: There are only two ways before you now, either leave the city and surrender immediately, or Stay in the city and wait until the king's army breaks through the city and annihilates them!"
Ashan gritted his teeth and made a last-ditch effort, saying: "There are tens of thousands of Qing troops in Yanqing Prefecture. If Liu Du insists on this, we Qing warriors can only choose to die together. I admit that Liu Du's troops are powerful. But the siege battle is so cruel, if we really fight to the death, I am afraid that Governor Liu’s troops will have to pay a heavy price!"
Everyone looked at Ah Shan angrily, while Liu Yan picked up the surrender letter and tore it into pieces. At the same time, he also completely tore apart the last hope in Ah Shan's heart.
Ah Shan said angrily: "I came to deliver the letter of surrender. Why is Governor Liu so rude? Don't you know how to treat messengers well?"
Liu Yan said coldly: "Your ancestors were just savages in an extremely cold place. Only with the mercy of the Ming Dynasty were we able to settle down in Liaodong."
Yan, now taking advantage of the weakness of the Ming Dynasty, rebelled, regarded kindness as hatred, and continued to attack the Ming Dynasty, which was like a reborn parent. He killed people, destroyed cities, and robbed money and food. It can be said that he did all kinds of evil! "
"I don't need to make any sense when dealing with bastards like you who are wolf-hearted and dog-eager!"
Liu Yan threw the fragments of the letter of surrender on the ground and continued: "Huang Taiji made a good plan. He wanted to surrender directly to the court, and then he made a full gesture, hoping that the court would settle the matter and move you to the border. Go and continue to wait for changes, right?"
"What a joke! You Tatars can come and leave whenever you want in the territory of the Ming Dynasty and the Han family!"
Ah Shan realized something was wrong and wanted to defend himself, but Liu Yan said directly: "Come here, pull this beast down and behead it!"
At this time, Ah Shan was completely dumbfounded and shouted: "Don't you Han people say that if the two countries are at war, they will not kill the envoys? Why did you kill me!"
Liu Yan said: "I have said that I don't need to reason with you Tatars, just speak with a knife in everything!"
"I don't accept it! I am the messenger, you can't kill me!"
Amidst Ah Shan's roar, two guards from the Guards Battalion dragged him down, and a moment later they brought back a bloody head.
When Wang Yue saw this, he couldn't help but clicked his tongue and said: "What a head, with that little braid hanging on it, it's really ugly!"
Everyone laughed.
Then Liu Yan said: "Put Ashan's head outside the city so that all the Tatars in the city can see it, so that they can understand their situation."
When Ashan's head was placed on a wooden stick and placed outside the city, on top of the city, Abate, Jirhalang, Azige, Hao
Ge and Baiyintu received the report one after another and hurried to the east wall.
"Liu Yan, he actually..."
Jierhalang couldn't believe that Liu Yan was so bold. He didn't report it to the Ming Dynasty court at all and just killed Ashan on his own initiative. He was an envoy of the Qing Dynasty!
"What should we do now?"
Faced with Abatai's inquiry, Jierhalang had no idea at this time, shook his head and said: "Don't ask me, I don't know either."
Abata closed his eyes and sighed, and said, "There is nothing we can do. Let's just wait here to die."
Baiyintu on the side looked mournful and said: "How about we write another letter of surrender, send more troops and horses to rush out, and send it directly to Beijing City? After the Ming Dynasty receives the letter of surrender, it will definitely send people to relieve the siege!"
At this time, Haug, Azig, Zirhalang, Abatai and others all looked over, with strange expressions on their faces.
The soldiers and horses of the Qing Dynasty actually wanted to ask for help from the Ming Dynasty court? This is simply the biggest joke in the world!
Hauge glared at Baiyin Tu fiercely and said: "Stop daydreaming! Let's not say whether it can be delivered. Even if the Ming court really sends an imperial minister, do you think Liu Yan will obey the orders of an imperial minister who has no soldiers? Really? Liu Yan is determined to fight the current situation. I think even if Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty comes, he may not change his tune!"
Azig roared angrily: "Then fight! I, the warriors of the Qing Dynasty, are not the kind of rats in the Ming Dynasty who are greedy for life and afraid of death. Fight! Let this city of Yanqing become the place where Liu Yan's troops lose their troops!"
Jierhalang nodded and said: "Let's fight. Only by beating Liu Yan painfully will he be able to change his ways. Let's do it now."
Let's go back and discuss the matter of defending the city. "
Everyone was about to go back to discuss, and suddenly Abate pointed to the outside of the city and exclaimed: "Look!"
Everyone looked around and saw about a thousand New Army soldiers outside the city rushing from the northwest to the New Army central camp in the east. Those New Army soldiers were escorting nearly 10,000 Qing army prisoners. Looking at their clothes and armor, most of them were They are soldiers and horses from various Mongolian banners, and a small part of them are from Manchuria with red flags and red flags.
Abatai said with a solemn expression: "Those should have been captured by Liu Yan's tribe from Longmen Pass. All the Mongolian banners are gone!"
The Manchu Qing Dynasty has always been one of Manchu and Mongolia. Now the Mongolian banners are basically "reimbursed", which means that half of the foundation of the Qing Dynasty was cut off by Liu Yan. Even if Hauge returns to Shengjing safely and successfully obtains the throne, the Qing Dynasty will The Qing Dynasty is no longer the great Qing Dynasty it once was. Let alone conquering the world, even a small corner of peace is already a luxury.
Thinking of this, Hauge suddenly felt like a deflated rubber ball. The enterprising spirit in his heart and the remaining fighting spirit were all dissipated in the cold wind.
Ji'erharang looked at Hauge, who looked very ugly, and said: "Prince Su, don't be discouraged. There are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of various banners in the city. As long as we can hold on for half a month, the Ming court will definitely get the news. The situation may change by then.”
Hauge was noncommittal, and then said: "There are still too few prisoners. If there are more people, Liu Yan's food and grass can be quickly consumed. Now that the climate is cold and the financial resources within the Ming Dynasty are very scarce, maybe..."
Before Hauge could finish speaking, his mouth opened wide and he could no longer say a word.
Jierhalang, Abatai, A
Jige and Baiyintu were the same. They all looked outside the city in horror. The Qing soldiers on the surrounding walls kept screaming and roaring.
