Zhang Jian turned his head, held a large iron shield, rushed to the woman and pulled her up. He saw that there was a large area of ​​red under the woman, and the red blood was flowing out to the ground along his legs. The woman could no longer move. If Zhang Jian wanted to drag her, he had to throw away the iron shield and the iron shield. He could not stop the firearms with his armor alone.

"Come and save people!" Zhang Jian shouted.

Three armored soldiers rushed over after hearing the sound. One of them placed the big shield on the ground, used as a stretcher, and placed the woman on the iron shield. The two carried her; Zhang Jian and another armored soldiers picked up the shield and blocked the bullets that were constantly shooting from the castle behind. The four of them protected the woman and stepped back step by step.

With the help of the iron armored soldiers, most of the people were rescued.

Seeing that there were no hostages under the city, the Ming army bombarded violently with giant siege artillery and finally razed the castle to the ground.

"Kill!" Groups of soldiers rushed into the city. The Han Eight Banners soldiers and Baoyi slaves who were guarding the city were either killed or committed suicide, but none of them surrendered!

Admiral Ma Wenhui waved his big sword and bravely rushed towards the Huai Army with twelve Goshhas, but was shot into the nest of Ma Feng by a row of guns from the angry Huai Army; Governor Shen Wenkui carried Fubiao Camp to carry out the final stubborn resistance, and was blown into pieces by the Huai Army's grenades; the prefect Xu Yanggao drank a full bottle of poisonous wine in his yamen. When the Huai Army rushed in, his face turned black, bleeding from his orifices, and stopped breathing.

The Green Camp general Tang Tong, with the remaining Green Camp soldiers, surrendered to the Ming army.

The Battle of Baoding was finally over. This battle was the biggest loss of the Huai Army since the Northern Expedition, with more than 8,000 sacrifices! More than 7,000 Han Eight Banners Army, 30,000 Green Camp soldiers and more than 10,000 coated slaves were annihilated.

"General Tang Tong, don't be fine!" Seeing Tang Tong being escorted, Li Guodong looked at him with a smile.

"Yes, it's the last general. Duke of Chu, the last general abandoned the darkness and turned to the brightness again, and returned to the brightness!" Tang Tong quickly knelt down and kowtowed desperately.

Li Guodong yelled: "Come here! Pull it out and behead it!"

"Give me your life! Your grandfather, please spare me! Why did I surrender? Your grandfather still want to kill me?" Tang Tong kowtowed desperately.

Li Guodong sneered: "General Tang Tong, you were stationed in Juyongguan before, and the thieves attacked the capital. You surrendered without fighting, which led to the thieves' army directly coming to the capital. You betrayed the Ming Dynasty and became the thieves' army. This is nothing. Jiannu is here, and you betrayed the treacherous army again and defected to Jiannu! You and the three surnames slaves, what's the use of me to keep you?"

"Grandmaster, please spare me! Grandmaster, please spare me! The thief army was powerful back then, and the last general could not defeat it..." Tang Tong, who was dragged out, struggled desperately, supported the pillar ground with his feet and begged for mercy.

"Slow!" Li Guodong shouted suddenly.

The two soldiers let go of Tang Tong. The guy was delighted and hurriedly climbed to Li Guodong's table and kowtowed desperately: "Thank you for not killing me!"

Li Guodong took a look and found that Tang Tong's pants were all wet. He sneered: "I won't kill you now, but I didn't say that I have forgiven you for your death penalty! I won't kill you now, so I'm going to live for a few more days. You are going to accompany Hong Chengchou! Bet on!"

In the military camp, a loud cry of a baby sounded.

"It's been born, I'm born, congratulations to the girl, I've given birth to a daughter." The woman in the wind hugged a newly born baby and said to the woman who had just been rescued.

"Daughter?" The woman was stunned for a moment, then burst into tears, "My husband has been harmed by the Tartars. This is his only flesh and blood. Who would have thought that it was his daughter? How could I survive this?"

That night, the woman took advantage of the soldiers' unpreparedness and killed herself by picking up a knife, leaving only her baby daughter.

"Oh, this silly woman, my husband is gone, and I committed suicide just because I gave birth to a daughter. Wouldn't we brothers save her for nothing?" Zhang Jian sighed when he heard the news.

"Brother, if this woman did not commit suicide, it would be a pity that many people would marry her brothers in our army." said a soldier.

Another soldier said, "Brother, we didn't save anyone in vain. At least we saved a child. By the way, Chen Laoliu, the fire-headed soldier, is already forty-five and has not yet married and had children. If he wants, he will raise this child for him."

The old fire-headed soldier Chen Laoliu held the child and looked at the child with a smile. He was a thief in his early years, but later he was captured by the Huai Army. He was a warrior at first. When he was older, all his family members died. He has been in the army. Considering his age, he later became a fire-headed soldier. Although the Huai Army's military salary is not low, he has never had the opportunity to marry a wife.

"The battle is almost over. From now on, I will raise this child well." Chen Laoliu said with a smile.

In the capital not far from Baoding, there was a pessimistic atmosphere in the city. The Qing officials, especially the Han officials, were all depressed, as if they learned that they had been sentenced to death and were preparing to be executed in the autumn.

In fact, it is almost the same as Qiu Hou's killing. The Qing Dynasty is almost over, and it is impossible to escape back to Liaodong. Subude's army has broken through Shanhaiguan and joined forces with the Zheng army to fight towards Beijing. The Qing Dynasty can no longer escape back to Liaodong. The only way out is to run north and escape to the Beihai where Su Wu shepherds.

All kinds of bad news kept coming. The Zhongzhen Camp, which was originally the main rebel army, had conquered Datong and was coming to the capital; Li Yan and Hongniangzi's eastern Ming army had passed Tianjin; the Huai army broke through Baoding and headed straight to the capital; the coalition forces of Subude and Zheng Sen from the north broke through Shanhaiguan and were coming to the capital.

Hundreds of thousands of troops are about to arrive in the capital. Can this capital still be defended? I heard that Emperor Shunzhi is ready to run away.

However, the Qing Dynasty could not take away all the Han officials and their families. They could not take away so many people. If they wanted to take away so many people, how much food would be needed? To take away food, more people would be needed, which would form a vicious cycle. Therefore, the Qing Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty decided to abandon all the Han officials and throw them to the Ming army.

They knew very well what these Han officials were. Most of these people were Ming ministers who originally had the salary of the Ming Dynasty, but now they were traitors, and some even surrendered to the thief first and then to the Qing Dynasty.

It is obvious that Li Guodong wanted to abolish the existing private land ownership system and turn all the land in the Ming Dynasty into imperial fields, so the land gentry was the first target to be hit. And these three traitors were the fat pigs that were ready to be slaughtered by knives.

Originally, they could still protect their vested interests based on the Qing Dynasty. But the Qing Dynasty was almost over, what else could they do?

Organize the tenants and form a group training? It is impossible. Li Guodong's propaganda power is too strong. The tenants have awakened. Everyone is ready to fight the Duke of Chu to come soon, so that they can fight the local tyrants and share the land.

In the Forbidden City, the ground was in a mess, as if it had just been hit by a military disaster. There were various furniture placed at the doors of the houses in the harem, and the eunuchs and palace maids were packing their things and preparing to run away.

"Wuwuwu" Fulin lay on the table and cried loudly: "The Qing Dynasty is over! The Qing Dynasty is over!"

Fulin really couldn't bear to leave the beautiful country in the pass, but the problem was that he couldn't even go to Liaodong, so he could only go to the North Sea where Su Wu shepherded sheep to drink the northwest wind and eat sand.

If you don't run away, it doesn't matter. It is said that the Hunde Gong Mansion in Nanjing has been built, so I'm waiting for Fulin to move in. But Fulin dares not go there. If you go to Nanjing, you may be able to live safely for a few years, but what about a few years later? You choke to death when you eat, choke to death when you drink water, die from sudden illness, or fall to death when you walk. There is always a way to die for you.

In fact, Fulin really judges a gentleman with a villain's heart, and Li Guodong really won't do such things. With the development of weapons, the nomadic peoples and fishing and hunting people on this continent can only sing and dance well in the future, and eventually they will be completely integrated and become Han people. For the sake of national integration, Li Guodong could not kill Fulin, and of course he would not let him go to the other side of the Pacific Ocean. What's more, Fulin is both the nephew of his concubine Hai Lanzhu and his cousin, so of course he can't kill him, and he will only raise him well. Anyway, Fulin has no harm. If it were Kang Mazi, then Li Guodong would not dare to raise him.

But it's okay now, Kang Mazi is not even liquid yet.

"Let's go!" Bumubutai ordered.

"Empress Dowager, you are more or less sister-in-law of the Duke of Chu of Ming Dynasty. If you don't leave, the Duke of Chu will not make things difficult for you considering Hai Lanzhu's face." Oboi advised.

"Of course I know that if the Ai family surrenders, they can spend their old age. But what should I do if the emperor?" Bumubutai said.

The elites of the Manchu and Mongolian Eight Banners Army of the Qing Dynasty were all finished. The remaining Eight Banners children were all second generations of the Eight Banners who grew up after entering the pass. Those people had no combat power at all. No one expected these guys who carried bird cages all day long, made tea, listened to books and sang operas to defend the capital.

Bumubutai's idea was to let the second generation of the Eight Banners escape first, escape to the North Sea, and live a hard life in the bitter cold place again, so that the fierce blood in their bodies could return to normal. Although it was impossible to enter the pass again, it could at least conquer the Mongolian tribes and preserve the Qing Dynasty.

But she did not expect that the Qing Dynasty would be preserved. However, Subude, the loyal lackey of the Duke of Chu, would bring the Ming army adapted from the Jurchens and the Eight Banners Army, and the Korqin Mongols who betrayed the Qing Dynasty, to chase and kill the Qing Dynasty and drive the Qing to the west. In the end, they were no longer tenable in Beihai and were driven to the Ural Mountains to fight to the death with the Rakshasa people.

After escaping from Siberia, the Eight Banners' children were killed and injured. Later, some people suggested that after passing Simongo, they would turn south and march along the Caspian Sea, which reduced casualties and finally arrived in the area east of the Ural Mountains.

Later, the Qing Dynasty paid tribute to the Tang Empire established by Li Guodong's son, and the Tang Dynasty provided weapons to the Qing Dynasty to resist the Rakshasa people.

Later, with the support of the Tang Empire, not only weapons support, but also some prisoners from all over the Western Regions were also given to the Qing Dynasty.

As the Qing Dynasty grew stronger, it began to expedition to Europe in the west, interrupting the industrialization process of Europe. Except for the British Isles, the entire European continent was groaning under the iron hooves of the Qing Dynasty's Heavenly Army. Hundreds of years later, the Qing Dynasty finally merged with the Tang Empire.

But those were things that happened later. What the Eight Banners children now think about is running away.

The second generation of the Manchu, Mongolian and Han Eight Banners reluctantly left their home where they had lived for seven years. When they entered the pass, they were still children, and now they are only half-aged children of fifteen or sixteen years old. Their fathers and grandchildren either died in the battlefield or were already in the prisoner-of-war camp of the Huai Army.

The second generation of the Eight Banners left the capital with their families and escorted them to Xia by the few remaining Eight Banners soldiers, heading north.
