Ningyuan.

"There was Ying thief who limited me to surrender for three months before, and then the Eastern Barbarians bullied me with rootless Ping, which made me difficult to make a decision. Now three months are about to fill, and the Eastern Barbarians are here again. What should I do?"

Wu Sangui was haggard, his mouth was cracked, and his eyes were full of fatigue.

"I have 25,000 soldiers and horses, and I can't hold on if I eat horses and chew them. The Donglu and Ying thieves are very anxious to make a decision. Please teach me."

Wu Sangui is now really a rootless Ping. The Ming Dynasty has been destroyed, and the Liaodong Army, as the Ming army, has lost all its support. Without the source of food and grass, no military pay, he is trapped in a mere Ningyuan and waits for death.

If it were just like this, the worst would be to surrender the city and surrender the Donglu. However, Abatai's entire army was wiped out, Turg lost a lot, and the two Beijing Temples outside Shanhaiguan were shocking. All of this made Wu Sangui see the weakness of the Donglu.

He knew that Ying Yi was not Chongzhen. On the body of the Ming court, a new dynasty would stand up. After counting history, when a new dynasty appeared in the middle, the good days for the surrounding barbarians were about to come to an end.

How stupid is it to surrender to the Eastern Barbarians at this time?

He also knew the significance of sending troops to attack only three months after the defeat of the Tartars, which was to take advantage of Ying Yi's foothold and decide the fate of the country. No matter how hard Ying Yi was, he would destroy him and gain a chance to breathe for the Eastern Captains - for example, the intention of Liao to Song and the Eastern Captains would also win the situation between Liao and Song at the most.

It was not that Wu Sangui had never thought of surrendering to Ying Yi. Three months ago, when he received the imperial edict from King Xia in the pass, Wu Sangui had thought about it.

However, Ying Yi was too tough, and Wu Sangui felt that surrendering was OK, but he had to keep his capital, such as the army. But this was something Ying Yi did not allow.

Without the army, only three or five people could kill him. This was the capital to save his life, and Wu Sangui couldn't bear to let it go.

Therefore, the situation has been delayed until now.

He hopes to find a way to achieve the best of both worlds and gain a future while retaining power.

Zu Dashou, who was sitting at the beginning of the game, spoke.

Before Huang Taiji died, he sent Zu Dashou to Ningyuan to persuade Wu Sangui to surrender, but even if Zu Dashou was Wu Sangui's uncle, he could not convince Wu Sangui. What's more, Zu Dashou also saw the weakness of the Donglu, and the so-called persuasion was mixed with water.

"What do you think Chang Bo has? Let me say it out. Everyone here is brother, what can I say? Everyone is pointing at you."

Upon hearing this, the generals and officials in the hall said, "Only follow the order of Master Bo!"

Wu Sangui showed a tired smile, and it flew away, saying, "Okay. I really thought about it day and night, and I really had some thoughts."

He said: "Abatai's entire army was wiped out, Turg lost a lot. I don't know what the Xia king used, but in this way, it can be seen that the Donglu was not arrogant in front of the Xia king. In history, once a new dynasty was established in the Central Plains, the surrounding Tartars would no longer have the chance to be arrogant. The Xia king had defeated the Donglu before he established a country, which shows that his strength was extraordinary."

He also said: "The Eastern Barbarians sent troops to attack after three months. The news said it was the army of the whole country. It can be seen that the Eastern Barbarians were afraid of the King of Xia and penetrated their bones. The King of Xia was in the Central Plains and the new momentum was vigorous. The Eastern Barbarians must not be the enemy of the King of Xia. However, the King of Xia was hard and there was no reason to recruit the army. If they surrendered to the King of Xia directly, they would have nothing. Therefore, I thought of a plan."

Speaking of this, some generals and Zu Dashou in the hall had already vaguely understood.

Then Wu Sangui said, "You and I are both Han, and you can be free of worries by joining King Xia. However, if you can make great contributions and join the King of Xia, haha..."

Then he changed his words: "I'm sorry for my uncle to go there. Isn't Haoge almost coming to Ningyuan? Please tell him that I, Wu Sangui, do not want to surrender to the Ying thief, and are willing to surrender to the Qing Dynasty."

Zu Dashou stood up, smiled and said, "I feel so relieved when Chang Bo has made this decision."

He turned around and walked out slowly: "Although this is dangerous, if we can protect the ancestors, the Wu family can be abandoned forever."

Wu Sangui stood up and bowed deeply: "Please be careful. If you have time to deal with each other, be sure to try to pick up your family from Shengjing."

Zu Dashou walked out of the threshold and said, "The soldiers of the Donglu all over the country must be empty inside, and there are opportunities. Don't underestimate your uncle!"

When Zu Dashou left, Wu Sangui took a deep breath and said, "All of them are my confidants here, so the news must not be leaked. When you walk out of this hall, don't say a word!"

The four or five generals and officials discussed here are all Wu Sangui's confidants. He has more than 20,000 people and more than 20 households, but these are the only ones who truly trust.

"Don't worry, I'll die, and I won't miss a single word!"

Wu Sangui nodded fiercely and said, "Okay."

Then he said, "I need someone to go to Shanhaiguan for me, who would like to go?"

Several people said, "I wish to go!"

He sent someone to leave the city quietly and headed for Shanhaiguan.

...

When Huang Taiji was alive, Haoge and Huang Taiji and his son led three banners and possessed 117 Niulu elite soldiers. As soon as Huang Taiji died, Haoge lost the throne in the battle of power and lost the strength of the other two banners. He was transferred to Fulin's name, but was actually taken away by Dorgon.

Therefore, there are only fifty-eight Niulu left in Haoge, which is considered a strong banner among the Eight Banners, but it is much weaker than before.

As a pioneer general, Haoge personally led 58 Niulu 16,000 elite cavalry, and combined 20,000 coated slaves. He set out from Shengjing, that is, Liaoyang, and arrived in Jinzhou within two days.

Behind him, Dorgon's power was trying to gather 200,000 troops to compete with Ying Yi for the national destiny.

After the defeat of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty in Abatai and Turge, there were only more than 80,000 elite cavalrymen. Except for the 16,000 troops under Haoge, the remaining seven flags had only 70,000 elite cavalrymen. Two hundred thousand soldiers and horses naturally had to be recruited from the Eight Banners of Mongolia, the Eight Banners of Han and Korea.

Two hundred thousand regular soldiers had to be recruited at least 500,000 coats for logistics, which means that Dorgon had already given all his money.

After Haoge arrived in Jinzhou, he sent a scout cavalry to go first, and the main force was stationed in Jinzhou, intending to rest for a night.

After running around for two days, even the elite soldiers of the Eight Banners were also exhausted.

The Qing Dynasty had only been two or three years since the Qing Dynasty captured Jinzhou. In the Battle of Songjin, the Qing Dynasty confronted the Ming court for almost a year and finally won the victory. However, this military town was almost broken into ruins.

However, the Qing Dynasty's national strength was not enough, and it was still possible to develop and repair it.

Fortunately, there was a coat slave, so he quickly built a tent and settled it down.

In the big tent, Haoge was looking at the map and was tragic. Haoge was rough and unwise, but it did not mean that he was stupid. Huang Taiji died, but Haoge, as the eldest son, lost the throne. This time he fought for the country's destiny and regarded him as the pioneer. Dorgon's thoughts were clear at a glance.

But Haoge didn't care. He knew what Dorgon meant, but he came without a trace of opposition. He wanted to avenge Huang Taiji and prove that the Qing Dynasty's elite soldiers would always be invincible!

In Haoge's view, the so-called Xia thief was the culprit of Huang Taiji's death. If the Xia thief had not slaughtered Shanshan, Huang Taiji would not have died so soon. As long as he persisted for another year or two and made all preparations, how could he lose the throne? Now he is controlled by Dorgon?
