In the winter of Beijing, the cold makes people desperate.
After only two months of siege, Beijing became a dead city.
Around the city of Beijing, the Taiping army dug a trench that had not been seen since the formation of the army.
This trench, which separates Beijing from all communication with the outside world, looks more like a moat when it is flooded.
The Manchus, a nation that caused countless hardships to the Han people, finally got their retribution in this deep winter.
Ao Bai, the prince of the Eight Banners, who had pinned his last hope, died, died in Kaifeng, and died in the hands of Kuenbu, who had just been appointed as the governor of the Qing Dynasty, the Zhenghuang Banner of Manzhou, the first-class duke, and the original name of Tang Sanshui.
It is said that Kuenbu had ambushed dozens of gunners in advance, and after Ao Bai entered the house, he fired in a chaotic manner, so that the Baturu warrior of the Qing Dynasty did not even have a complete body.
After dealing with Ao Bai and the Manchurian Eight Banners that retreated to Kaifeng with him, Tang Sanshui stripped off his clothes and tied Jia Hanfu, the governor of Henan, to the head of the city, and froze to death.
Before the New Fourth Army of the Taiping Army from Anhui to the north arrived in Kaifeng, Tang Sanshui couldn't wait to announce that Yi Zhi was anyway.
Subsequently, the Dingwu Imperial Court named Tang Sanshui as the Duke of Pingguo and awarded the post of Governor of Zhili.
After the New Fourth Army arrived in Kaifeng, the loyal battalion, which had been trapped by the Yellow River for half a year, gave up the idea of going north to fight the situation independently, and the old generals led by Li Laiheng, the king of Shun, accepted the reality.
The Loyalty Battalion was reorganized into four towns, and Li Laiheng went to Beijing with Dang Shousu, Liu Tichun and other generals to accept Zhou Shixiang's summons.
Ao Bai gave Wu Sangui a heavy blow before his death, forcing Wu Jun to abandon Zhengzhou and retreat to Luoyang.
However, Shaanxi and Gansu soon came an urgent report, the southwest Taiping army under the command of Li Dingguo, the king of the Jin Dynasty, entered Sichuan, and successively captured Chongqing, CD, and Baoning, and now tens of thousands of Taiping troops have entered Hanzhong, and the front of the army is directed at Xi'an.
A large number of Wu generals surrendered one after another, and even Gao Minzhan, the governor of Sichuan, pleaded guilty to Li Dingguo.
Wu Sangui was still gritting his teeth and insisting, he didn't believe that he would lose to the thief Xiucai, but the news of the siege of Beijing still made the self-proclaimed king of Zhou unable to hold on.
The general trend of the world has been decided, and it is difficult for Wu Sangui to make a difference.
In despair, Wu Sangui ignored the opposition of the strategists and sons-in-law, and chose to be the emperor in Luoyang, with the country name Zhou, and the Jianyuan Zhaowu.
On the day of the establishment of the Zhaowu regime, Wu Sangui's second son-in-law Hu Guozhu and niece Guo Zhuangtu led the army to leave Luoyang and surrender to the Kaifeng Taiping army.
After learning of this, Wu Sangui sighed and fell ill. 26 days later, Wu Sangui died of illness in Luoyang, and his eldest son Wu Yingxiong succeeded him.
Wu Yingxiong did not dare to be the emperor, but sent someone to submit the surrender table to Zhou Shixiang.
In order to show his sincerity, Wu Yingxiong sent his youngest sister Wu Ke to Jiangnan.
When Zhou Shixiang, who was far away in Beijing, heard about this, he couldn't cry or laugh, but he still accepted Wu Yingxiong's kindness and accepted Wu Ke as his concubine.
This move was mainly to appease Wu Yingxiong and his subordinates Wu Jun's civil and military hearts, in order to strive for a peaceful settlement of the Guanning Army.
In the name of Emperor Dingwu, Zhou Shixiang still named Wu Yingxiong as the king of Zhou, and built the palace of the king of Zhou in the east of Nanjing.
The Guanning Army was reorganized into two armies, commanded by Guo Zhuangtu and Xia Guoxiang, pacifying Shanxi and marching outside the mouth.
By the end of the month, the original two capitals and thirteen provinces were all restored except for Beijing.
Now, there is only Beijing left, and there are tens of thousands of women and children of the Eight Banners of Manchukuo in this majestic city.
Aobai's death cut off the last hope of the Manchus, and before that, the Horqin Mongols, who had promised to send troops to the pass, were so frightened that they did not dare to mention the entry of the pass after learning that the Ming army had occupied Liaodong, and their troubles soon came.
After taking Shanhaiguan, Zhou Shixiang did not rush to march into Beijing, but made a series of deployment transfers, and at the same time sent a large number of envoys to the Mongolian tribes, lobbying them to unite with the Ming army and attack the Monan tribes that were close to Manchuria.
Zhou Shixiang took out real money, and Manchu was already a dying man, how could the Moxi and Mobei tribes not be moved.
For a time, the Inner Mongolian tribes that were originally proud of the "Manchu and Mongolian family" were attacked by the Mongol tribes at the same time.
The Mongolian steppe, the smoke is everywhere.
The infighting Mongols could not have imagined that their ally, His Royal Highness the King of Qi of the Great Ming Dynasty, had included them in the list of the next conquests.
The tens of thousands of Manchurian women and children in Beijing were really waiting for death, and they couldn't even escape.
Without the Manchurian Eight Banners who could fight, up to the Empress Dowager, down to the various prefectures, everyone knew that staying in Beijing was death, but they could survive for a while.
But once they leave the city of Beijing, they will not survive a day.
From the first day of the siege, 100,000 soldiers were vying for battle, and everyone had to be the first to climb to the head of the old capital.
The blind Li is even sharpening his knife, because there is his favorite lady in the city of Beijing.
Although the woman is not young, it can be said that she is not old, according to the Han officials who surrendered, the emperor and the emperor are well maintained, and they look at the, and they are quite attractive.
However, Zhou Shixiang swept away the blind Li Dixing and ordered all his troops to besiege Beijing to death, not to enter or leave, and no one was allowed to attack the city without his order.
Although the siege is too simple, no matter how tall and strong Beijing's walls are, they can always be blown down.
For Beijing, for the Manchurians in the city, Zhou Shixiang only said the word "wai".
He wanted to let the Manchurians in the city also feel what happened in Xinhui City back then.
However, Zhou Shixiang still gave Beijing seven days.

During these seven days, the Han people in the city were allowed to leave, and as a result, many Manchurians pretended to be Han Chinese and tried to escape from the city.
It's just that they didn't expect that the Taiping Army would inspect them one by one and set the order of the five joint guarantees.
That is, the five Han families who went out of the city must guarantee each other that there are no Manchurians among them, otherwise if one is found, all five families will be beheaded.
Under this strict order, how could the Han people dare to bring the Manchurians out.
At first, many people were lucky, and after getting the money of the filial piety of the Manchurians, and sleeping with other people's girls' wives, they wanted to take people out.
However, more than 4,000 heads were beheaded in three days, so that those Han people who were lucky would no longer dare to do such a fatal thing.
There is no food, there are dead people in the city every day, the Manchurians can't stand it, and Sony can't stand it either.
It was almost begging, or even begging and begging, Sony submitted countless surrender tables to Zhou Shixiang, hoping that the other party would accept the surrender of the Qing Dynasty.
However, it all fell for grants.
The Empress Dowager couldn't stand it anymore, she let her grandson abdicate, and was willing to hand over the Qing Dynasty to Zhou Shixiang in exchange for the lives of the Manchurians in Beijing.
This proposal made many of Zhou Shixiang's subordinates tempted, once the Qing Emperor abdicated, the handsome man could naturally be the emperor openly.
If the country is seized from the hands of the Qing Dynasty, it is not a usurpation of the throne and self-reliance, and it is a logical thing to turn back and take the power of a great victory and set the world.
Zhou Shixiang sneered, and said to the generals: "What Qing emperor abdicates, is there a Qing emperor in this world, only the Manchurian Tartar He De can dare to call the emperor, why should he allow him to ask the Tartar to ask them not to be worthy of talking about the conditions with Lone, Lone wants them to die, and no one can live" and said: "From today on, if there are Hu people in this world who are called emperors, they are the enemies of my Han people who do not share the sky, and everyone will be punished, if anyone is not punished, the world will ask for it, even if he is the son of my Han people."
Zhou Shixiang refused the Qing Dynasty's request to abdicate the throne without even thinking about it, because he was not Yuan Shikai, and the Ming and Qing dynasties were not changing dynasties, but a life-and-death battle between the Han and the Manchurians.
To deal with the great enemy of the nation, we should force each other to die and settle the reckoning to the end, otherwise, it will be a crime against the nation The surrender was refused, the abdication was also denied, and the Ming army outside the city was determined to besiege Beijing to death.
The Manchu Qing Dynasty, which was on the verge of death, was really out of luck, and on the twentieth day of the lunar month, thousands of Manchurian noblewomen and women were sent, among them, there were Shunzhi's wife, Kangxi's mother, the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces, Borzigit and Tong Jia.
The two young widow queen mother were sent out of the city by Sonny and others with tears in their eyes, no way, for the lives of tens of thousands of Manchurians in the city, the two queen mothers had to sacrifice.
At present, the face is no longer in the Qing Dynasty.
Didn't the thief Xiucai say that he wanted two queen mothers, then give it to him, as long as he could give Manchuria a way to live, he would want the queen mother, and Sonny and Suke Saha might also bring troops into the palace and tie them up. oshow7 t1706231537:
