Azige, the seventeen-year-old leader of the flag with a white flag, knelt down in front of Liu Zhaosun anxiously.
The money rattail on the back of Azig's head has been cut off, leaving only a short tuft of hair on the back of his head, which looks quite funny.
"This slave has admired the Ming Dynasty for his clothes and service since he was a child. If the old slave and Huang Taiji hadn't forced him to do so, he would have long ago wanted to submit to the Ming Dynasty."
Half an hour ago, when Azig witnessed the two red flags being defeated by the Kaiyuan Army, all the artillery on the city wall were blown up by the Kaiyuan Army, and the Uzhenha super gunners suffered all casualties, he had to reconsider the white flag. fate.
Huang Taiji originally planned to use the two white flags as a reserve force. When necessary, he would coordinate the two red flags and assist Abatai in encircling and annihilating the original army in one fell swoop.
Huang Taiji's setting is that the Kaiyuan Army suffered heavy casualties after crossing the river, and the subsequent artillery could not keep up, and the main force did not dare to advance. At the same time, the Uzhenha Super Fire Gunman could inflict a fatal blow to the Kaiyuan Army.
It has to be said that Queen Khan Huang Taiji, like all heroes, overestimated the strength of his opponents and overestimated his own strength.
In the original history, there was no problem with Huang Taiji's self-confidence. In the second year of Chongzhen, Huang Taiji took the initiative to enter the customs and rob the country against all opinions, which was the famous "Ji Si Change". It was a classic case of Huang Taiji's successful adventure. If not The God of War in Meishan destroyed the Great Wall and imprisoned Yuan Chonghuan. The self-guided tour of the Ming capital by the Great Khan of the Jin Dynasty will most likely never come back, and the national destiny of the Qing Dynasty will also be ruined in this year.
Because of Liu Zhaosun's intervention, the probability of Huang Taiji's success in this dimension is infinitely close to zero.
This time Hou Jin's strategy of luring the enemy deeper not only failed to severely damage Kaiyuan's army, but also exposed his own strength prematurely. After realizing Hou Jin's true strength, Liu Zhaosun had no choice but to kill Huang Taiji.
Judging from the current battlefield situation, it is no longer a matter of the Jin army encircling and annihilating the original army. Liu Zhaosun is very likely to sweep holes and plow the court today to complete the devastating blow to Huang Taiji.
Azig and Huang Taiji were on average terms of friendship. After Huang Taiji ascended the throne, he devoted himself to expanding the power of Hanchen and weakening the power of the Eight Banners. He adopted a suppressive policy against the previous Baylors, except of course for Daishan, who helped him ascend to the throne.
Azig, as the eldest of the three Dorgon brothers, was also the greatest threat to Huang Taiji Khan's position, so he naturally received the "care" of the Great Khan.
Azige and Du Du had a close connection. When he saw that the former leader of the Xiangbai Banner came unscathed and came to persuade him to surrender, he began to seriously consider the way out for the Xiangbai Banner.
Since fighting Liu Zhaosun would be a dead end, and Huang Taiji made it clear that he wanted him dead, he couldn't blame himself.
"This slave deserves to die. He listened to Huang Taiji's deception and stubbornly resisted the army, delaying Marquis Pingliao's recovery of Liaodong."
Liu Zhaosun looked back at Du Du with doubtful eyes. He suspected that Du Du had told the banner leader of the same age what caused Azig's attitude towards Kaiyuan Army to change so drastically.
"Each one is his own master. The master of the flag with white flag will please rise quickly."
Marquis Pingliao stepped forward and helped Azige, who was short and stocky, while several guards standing around stared at the surrendered Jianzhou noble.
Azig is one year older than Dudu and is the twelfth son of Nurhachi. He is the same brother as Dorgon Duduo. Historically, this little Baylor conquered the city after the Qing army entered the customs and made great achievements for the Qing Dynasty.
"The fact that you submit to me shows that your golden energy has been exhausted. I will not treat you badly. I said it last year."
Liu Zhaosun looked beyond Azig and looked at the black tiger flag flying in the distance under the city of Hetuala, where the 2,000th headquarters soldiers were breaching the city.
"Liaodong should be everyone's Liaodong, not just for us Han people, but also for the Mongols and Jurchens. After all, you once lived here. However, Nurhaci and Huang Taiji slaughtered tens of millions of Han people for their own selfish purposes. This is against the law of heaven. Naturally, I will not let them go. Nurhachi was beheaded in the bloody battle of Hunhe. Huang Taiji will not be spared in this battle of Hetuala. If you sincerely surrender, I will save the lives of the armored soldiers under your command and give them a way to survive."
What Liu Zhaosun said about "giving them a way to survive" was actually to arrange for these Zhenyi armored soldiers to go to the mines to dig and work hard for several years in holes where they could not see their fingers. Only those who survived in the end were qualified to get land and shelter. This was how Ping Liaohou gave the Jin soldiers a way to survive after they surrendered.
Of course, the treatment of a surrendered banner owner like Azige is not comparable to that of ordinary pawns. In addition to equipping them with minions, Kaiyuan will meet all the needs of these Jurchen nobles.
There are no slaves in Kaiyuan.
Liu Zhaosun suddenly remembered something and added:
"If you two have the courage, you can persuade Huang Taiji to surrender on my behalf and give him a way to survive. Last year in Kaiyuan, Qiao Supervisor accidentally injured Huang Taiji's eye. I can't bear it. Kaiyuan's weapons are sharp. This time I'm afraid that I'm going to break his other eye, that's going too far."
Listening to Liu Zhaosun's serious nonsense, Kang Yingqian and others tried not to laugh out loud.
The two flag owners who surrendered were pale, especially Azig. He was worried that Marquis Pingliao would send himself into Hetuala as a lobbyist.
Based on Azig's understanding of Huang Taiji, his elder brother was cunning by nature, and he was somewhat tolerant towards the Han people, but he was ruthless towards the Jianzhou Jurchens who were of the same origin and origin. Since he took office, no less than a hundred high-ranking people of Houjin have been killed or imprisoned.
If Azig is allowed to return to Hetuala now, Huang Taiji will not hesitate to execute the little Belle Lingchi.
Liu Zhaosun noticed the expressions on the two people's faces and did not force himself. He patted Azig on the shoulder and said:
"Don't worry, Huang Taiji will send someone to talk to me. Then you will be the middleman. If the negotiation goes well, you can stay in Jianzhou to assist the new Houjin Khan."
Azig looked back at Du Du, full of jealousy. Azig had already heard from Du Du that Pingliao Marquis had promised him to succeed him as Jin Khan.
Azig couldn't help complaining that he surrendered too late. If he surrendered to Ping Liaohou during the bloody battle of Hunhe, then the position of Jin Khan would not be occupied by his younger brother Du Du.
~~~~~~
In Hetualaxi City, two miles away from everyone, the Kaiyuan Army's siege battle has come to an end.
After the Wengcheng artillery was destroyed, it could no longer pose a threat to the approaching Kaiyuan Army.
One by one, the escort soldiers slowly arrived at the foot of the city of Hetuala. The fire burning at the top of the city had been extinguished. More than 20 ladders were leaning against the city wall. The soldiers climbed up the ladders and jumped on level ground. City head.
More and more soldiers appeared on the top of the city, killing the injured Houjin fire gunners one by one. The light sword and shield soldiers entered the urn city corridor from the steps on both sides and opened the urn city gate from the inside.
A steady stream of soldiers rushed into the urn city, and Hetuala was about to be captured.
Liu Zhaosun ordered two thousand general combat soldiers to take a rest in Wengcheng. The two thousand general combat soldiers advanced alternately, wearing iron armor and continuing to fight. Their physical strength would be exhausted after traveling more than two miles. Maintaining sufficient physical strength is particularly important for combat.
The soldiers took the flag team as a unit and entered the inner city from the Wengcheng in turn. After passing the Yongding Gate, they reached the main city of Hetuala. Like many cities in the Ming Dynasty, the main street was the North-South Street, and barricades had been built in the middle of the street. The white flags were The armored soldiers stood behind the barricades, with the remaining artillery pointing at the street entrances on both sides, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Two groups of soldiers had already attacked and been beaten back. Deng Changxiong was preparing for the third time. Liu Zhaosun stopped him and turned back to Du Du:
"Go and talk to the Zhengbai Banner general who is leading the troops and ask them to surrender. I want to do good things these days and don't want to kill too many people."
Du Du immediately agreed to the consultation and led two soldiers to the front of the barricade. Two heavy arrows were fired at him. Du Du quickly hid behind the long sign held up by the soldiers and shouted loudly in Manchu:
"Brothers of Zhengbai Banner, your master Huang Taiji has abandoned you and fled to Ninggu Pagoda! You only have five or six thousand people, but the Kaiyuan Army has 20,000 troops. They are all heroes worth ten, even more powerful than Bagaya. It’s still awesome, you’d better get down quickly!”
After the artillery carried by Xiangbaiqi was destroyed by the Kaiyuan Army, their morale was low. They also knew that they were no match for the Kaiyuan Army, and there was no benefit in continuing to hold on.
"Don't listen to Nikan's nonsense. The Great Khan will send reinforcements right away. As long as they are blocked in Wengcheng, they will definitely die."
