Emperor Taishu Duduo originally had a conscience and could find out, but Emperor Shunzhi, who was trapped in the Tianjin Acropolis, was now a little desperate.
His despair is not unreasonable, it is caused by the special terrain of Tianjin Wei. Tianjin Acropolis relies on the Wei River to the north and the canal to the west. To the west of the canal is another triangular lake. Therefore, it is easy to blockades going north and west. Originally, there was a Tianjin Wei Beicheng that was far away from the Tianjin Wei main city. However, when the Tianjin Wei Castle was built in the Qing Dynasty, it was felt that the North City could not be included in the main city's defense system, so the North City was leveled and only the main city was left for reconstruction. For the bastion.
In this way, Tianjin Bastion is easier to defend, but it is also easier to surround.
It was easier to break through before the canal, Weihe River, and Sanjiang Lake froze, but Emperor Shunzhi was frightened and did not dare to leave the Tianjin Acropolis. So they could only wait and wait for the Ming army to build a series of fortresses, watchtowers, and erect several wooden fences on the west bank of the canal, the north bank of the Wei River, and the exit of the narrow passage between the Triangle Lake and the canal, which was considered to be completely blocked. Emperor Shunzhi's way to the north and west.
On the southeast sides of the Tianjin Acropolis, the Ming army dug long trenches for the siege and built fortresses to block the Wei River and canals. Both land and water routes are tightly locked.
Shunzhi, who was besieged in the Tianjin Guards Fortress, was increasingly thinking about the emperor who could protect him from wind and rain!
But Huang Ama cannot be resurrected from the dead, what can Emperor Shunzhi do?
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what are your thoughts?"
Shunzhi, whose mind was filled with Dorgon's voice and smile, suddenly heard the bleating voice of an annoying four ministers, and then realized that he was distracted thinking about Amma.
At this time, he was receiving Princess Jianning's messenger Zu Kefa.
Shunzhi looked up and saw Zukefa's hateful smiling face.
"What are you considering?" Shunzhi asked casually before he could recover.
"Of course I'm considering surrendering..." Zukefa smiled, "Your Majesty, don't worry, you and the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty are relatives, you are the uncle of the country! If you go to Nanjing, you will enjoy endless glory and wealth. Yes. Our emperor is going to make you Prince Gong, but this is a king with a different surname! Wu Sangui is just a Duke of Liang, and Zheng Zhilong is just a Duke of Quan. They are not as high as your title. How wonderful!"
"What a fart!" Shunzhi became very angry when he saw Zukefa, "I am the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, how can I become a prince for him? I still have hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Qing Dynasty, and there are tens of thousands of miles away. Our territory is only at a temporary disadvantage now, but we will definitely be able to turn things around in the future!"
"Your Majesty, you have to think carefully..."
Zukefa still wanted to persuade him, but Shunzhi didn't want to listen anymore. He just shouted: "Come here, come here, beat these four ministers with a stick!"
"Don't, don't..." Zukofa was the one who didn't want to suffer the immediate loss. He didn't wait for others to hit him with sticks, so he ran away.
Now only a few of Emperor Shunzhi's closest bachelors and ministers were still with him.
Emperor Shunzhi looked at them all with dejected looks, as if the Qing Dynasty was about to end, and couldn't help but roared again: "Get out of here, get out of here!"
The emperor said to get lost, and the ministers who had no ideas left and dispersed in a hurry, leaving only one person standing there without moving. Shunzhi took a look and saw that it was Sun Zhixian, the "first minister" who had served in the Ming and Qing dynasties. Although he served as a minister to two masters, he was fired once by Emperor Chongzhen without even receiving compensation. Naturally, the relationship between the emperor and his ministers was reduced to zero. If you vote for the Qing Dynasty again, you will be a "one minister"...
"Sun Zhixian," Shunzhi thought "Sun Yichen" couldn't understand Manchu, so he switched to Chinese and said to him, "Get out of here too!"
"Your Majesty, can I leave later?" Sun Zhixian asked.
"Later? Are you..."
"I still want to offer you a plan. After I have presented my plan, do you want to get out of here?"
"You want to offer advice?" Shunzhi said in his heart: I thought you would send Sony's flattery, but it turns out you can offer advice!
"What's your plan?"
Sun Zhixian said: "I feel that the emperor cannot be Prince Gong of the Ming Dynasty now."
"That's it?" Shunzhi was not disappointed, because he didn't expect "Sun Yichen" in the first place.
Sun Zhixian continued: "Also... I think the emperor is okay. I can surrender to the Ming Dynasty and then recognize the emperor of the Ming Dynasty as the emperor."
"You, what did you say?" Shunzhi's eyes widened immediately.
Sun Zhixian smiled and said to Shunzhi: "I have been looking through the history books these days and found that there was an emperor during the Five Dynasties..."
"You, how dare you ask me to learn from Shi Jingtang? I am a Mingjun, how can I be the son-emperor of the Ming Dynasty emperor?"
Sun Zhixian said sternly: "Your Majesty is a wise king, and wise kings are capable of bending and stretching... Moreover, it is a fluke that our Qing Dynasty entered the pass. How many people do we have in the Qing Dynasty? How many people do they have in the Ming Dynasty?"
And now is not the time to conquer the world with bows and horses alone. Nowadays, wars rely on cannons and muskets. I heard that the Ming Dynasty now has four major ironworks: Nanjing Iron and Steel, Shanghai Shenyang Iron and Steel, Fujian Anyang Iron and Steel, and Guangdong Fotie, which produce hundreds of thousands of muskets every year. There are also many small factories. The output is probably no less than 200,000 to 300,000 pieces! And how many guns can I make in a year? There are thousands of people who are fighting to death. How can they survive with one against a hundred?
In addition, the servant is also in charge of the household department... With the war, the old foundation in the household department has been wasted like water, and the hard work in the household department has almost bottomed out in just a few months. But where did this hit? The war has no end! When our money and food are all gone, everything will be over. "
Emperor Shunzhi was already a little moved by Sun Zhixian's explanation.
Anyway, even if he recognizes the Emperor Arma again, he already has two Armas, and he doesn’t care about one more...
"But can Zhu Cixi agree?" Shunzhi said in a low and inaudible voice.
"It shouldn't be a problem," Sun Zhixian said, "Your Majesty, you are still the Great Khan of Mongolia! Emperor Zhu may be able to capture the territory south of the Great Wall, but it is not so easy to capture the territory north of the Great Wall! Besides, there is a Rakshasa in the north country, there is also the emperor's uncle outside the customs... There is also a country of Zhibania overseas. In the past, Ming Taizu drove out the Mongols and restored China. How brave and heroic was he? Didn't he also fail to destroy the Northern Yuan Dynasty? I want to come to the Hongxing Emperor You don’t think you are better than the Ming Dynasty Taizu, do you?”
It seems to make sense!
Shunzhi said: "Let me think about it carefully."
He was about to send Sun Zhixian away and have some quiet time alone, thinking about whether he should recognize another Ama or something, when Sony, who had just gone out not long ago, came back happily.
"Your Majesty, we can be saved! We can be saved!"
Emperor Shunzhi was stunned. He hadn't agreed to recognize Amma yet, so how could he be saved?
"The southern army in the south of the city is evacuating!" Sony said loudly, "The emperor's uncle must have led the troops to save the emperor... Your Majesty, the emperor's uncle is a good uncle!"
What a good uncle!
Emperor Shunzhi was moved to tears after hearing the news.
When Shunzhi was crying, Duoduo, the good uncle of the Qing Dynasty, was a little hesitant. Because his army had just crossed the Yudai River, it was discovered by the Ming army's black gun mule soldiers!
Now Duduo was riding his horse on the road leading to Tianjin, and there were bursts of gunfire in the distance. This should be his forward battalion cavalry exchanging fire with the Ming army's black spearmen.
Duduo had 50,000 soldiers at his side, plus the baggage troops and civilian servants, there were 70,000 to 80,000 people. Such a huge army, of course, moves with great momentum. Without a huge advantage of cavalry, it would be impossible to move covertly.
So he now knows that he has been discovered by his opponent... His current location is more than 150 miles away from Tianjin Guard. Under normal circumstances, it would take three days to reach the battlefield.
With these three days, Shi Kefa could calmly mobilize his troops, choose preset battlefields, and build fortifications... Moreover, his army was mainly infantry and could not move very fast at all.
But now that the arrow is on the string, we can't just run away and go back to the outside world without fighting, right? This is too embarrassing!
