Chapter 125 Zen
In a short time, a series of roars suddenly sounded between the whole world, and a stream of smoke rose outside the city. In a blink of an eye, the masonry began to fly on the city wall of Shenyang. At the same time, the Jiannu who guarded the city finally fired their cannons, dozens of Hongyi cannons they finally left behind, and hundreds of old The cannon also began to sound at this time.
Heaven and earth seem to be trembling in the sound of this rumbling cannon...
On October 10, the Shengjing Shenyang City of Jiannu announced that it was broken, and a large number of Yu's army and Guanning's army flocked into the city. Taiji, the Jiannu chieftain, personally carried a knife in the palace and fought fiercely with the Yu family's soldiers who invaded the palace. In the end, he lost more than 30 places and died on the steps.
There is almost nothing worth writing about the whole siege. Almost everything is carried out gradually according to the standards of the Yu family army. First, the artillery preparation was made for three consecutive days, knocking off a large number of living forces of slaves and the firepower of counterattacks in the city, and then began to organize infantry and engineers to attack the city.
The remnants of the construction slaves in the city also fulfilled their duties and made the strongest resistance. After the wall was lost, the remaining slaves will retreat into the city and continue to fight with the Yujia army or Guanning soldiers who invaded the city. It can be said that they fought until the last soldier, and basically no one surrendered. In Shenyang City, the shouting of killing lasted for two days before it gradually calmed down.
When Yu Jiajun took inventory of the remnants of the flag people in the city afterwards, only less than 2,000 flagmen were still alive in the whole capital, and the rest of the flagmen were basically martyred in the city. This was also the only thing that Yu Jiajun had done in the history. Since then, the Qing Dynasty, which was related to foreign countries, has also become a thing of the past.
After arranging things outside the customs, Yu Xiaotian set out from Shenyang City and returned to the customs at the end of November. At the same time, he also carried the body of the frozen slave emperor Taiji and returned to the customs with him.
Since then, the name of Shengjing has also been revoked, and the name of Shenyang City has been restored. A large number of people who build slave flags, as prisoners, have also been brought into the customs. According to Yu Xiaotian's instructions, they will be completely disrupted and resettled in various places in the customs. They are not allowed to live together and handed over to local governments for editing and management.
This was also the final satisfaction of a major wish of Jiannu, which finally allowed them to enter Guannei and settle in various parts of the Central Plains, but it was just a different way. From then on, the Manchu people, as a nation, finally integrated into the Chinese nation after hundreds of years and completely disappeared in the long history.
For this period of history, people in later generations can only know from the documents left in the past that there was such a powerful alien force outside Liaodong, and established a country that once made the Ming Dynasty tremble.
From some documents, later generations learned that this once-existing Manchurian flag man has caused unparalleled disasters to the Han people in Guannei and Liaodong, and even threatened the capital of the Ming Dynasty many times, which is almost unimaginable to future generations.
It was not until two or three hundred years later that some people in the Central Plains proposed that they were the descendants of the Manchurian Banner in the Qing Dynasty and turned out some so-called genealogy to prove their identity. However, such a root-finding and ancestor was not recognized by many people, but attracted a lot of abuse.
At the end of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, on the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Yu Xiaotian finally returned to the capital. From his exit to the destruction of Houjin, it took only three or four months. In the eyes of the people of Daming, the huge and even fierce Houjin Jiannu, which was extremely fierce, lies in the soldiers of the family army. The ashes and smoke disappeared in front of the front, and it will never exist in the world again.
The whole Liaodong also recovered and returned to the embrace of the Ming Dynasty. The Mongolian departments outside the customs also sent people to Beijing one after another and voted for Shunbiao, vowing that they would never be the enemy of the Ming Dynasty and were willing to be the Shun people of the Ming Dynasty forever. They hoped that the Ming court could not blame the past and forgive their previous sins.
Yu Xiaotian said that he could accept their Shunbiao and canonize some of the tribal leaders, so that they could exercise their management rights over the Mongolian ministries on behalf of the Ming Dynasty. If they have something to ask the court, each department must offer horses and cattle and sheep to the court as tribute.
And the court also allowed to reopen the mutual market in the area of Zhangjiakou, allow Mongolian ministries to trade in the mutual market, and exchange the cattle, sheep, mules, horses and various leather sheets they produced in exchange for the tea, salt cloth and other things produced in the customs. However, a fairly strict control system has been adopted for the export of iron weapons.
In addition, the Mongolian cavalry who joined the Jiajun cavalry this time also received quite rich rewards, and also gave generous rewards to their tribes.
After carefully tasting Yu Xiaotian's practices, he found that Yu Xiaotian did not really bring any peace to the Mongolian ministries. The objects of his canonization were basically among the Mongolian tribes, not very powerful tribes, but some powerful tribes, but did not get To the seal.
In this way, in the future, there will definitely be conflicts between these Mongolian tribes because of their interests. If they want to pinch them together again, I'm afraid that even if there is another Genghis Khan, it will be difficult to achieve this step.
When Yu Xiaotian returned to the capital after winning the victory, all the civil and military officials of the capital went out of Yongding Gate to welcome Yu Xiaotian's return to the court outside the Yongding Gate. Today, the Holy Chongzhen also personally took the imperial cham to welcome Yu Xiaotian's return outside the Yongding Gate. The high specifications can be said to be unprecedented in the history of the Ming Dynasty. Of course, it is also There is no one coming.
After Yu Xiaotian returned to his teacher, the bodies of the slave chieftain Taiji and many captured slave chiefs were hung outside the gates for the people of the world to visit, so that the people far away rushed outside the capital to take a look at the deep disaster for them and the people in Liaodong for so many years. The slave chief.
Many people picked up stones and bricks to throw the bodies of these slave chiefs. It didn't take long to beat the bodies of these slave chiefs beyond their faces. Although they are now in the severe winter season, these corpses are frozen hard, but they can't stand such destruction. They can't see the human form before the Spring Festival. Yu Xiaotian has to make a decree. The bodies of these slave chiefs were collected and found a random place to bury them, so that later generations could not verify the burial place of the Qing emperor.
As for the mausoleum of wild boar skin outside the customs, during the battle against Shenyang City, the mausoleum was also demolished by the Guanning army, and the masonry used for the mausoleum was transported to Shenyang City and used to fill the moat outside the city, so that only one site survived in later generations.
However, on the tenth day after Xiaotian returned to Beijing, Emperor Zhu Youjian, the current emperor of the Ming Dynasty, personally issued an imperial edict, which shocked the world again, and almost everyone was in an uproar!
Because Chongzhen told the world, it was a guilty edict. In the edict, he made some of his mistakes since he succeeded to the throne, saying that with his ability, he was incompetent to continue to be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty and summoned to tell the world. On the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, he will meditate in the palace in the current supervision of Yu Xiaotian, and end Zhu The Ming Dynasty ruled the world for more than 200 years.
As soon as this edict was issued, it set off a stormy wave in the Ming Dynasty. More than 200 years after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, a considerable number of scholars and even ordinary people have already subtly formed a sense of belonging to the Ming Dynasty, and spontaneously formed a kind of loyalty to the Zhu family.
There are definitely some upright people, who can also be said to be good people. Of course, there are also many people who have benefited from various preferential measures of Daming. Of course, these people are mainly scholars.
Especially for scholars and many gentry and relatives who once benefited from the Ming Dynasty, although many preferential policies for these gentry and relatives have been banned after taking office in Xiaotian, in the eyes of this group of people, the Ming Dynasty treated them with kindness, and the fault lies in Xiaotian.
Now Emperor Chongzhen announced his abdication and wants to give the throne to Yu Xiaotian. How can it be easily accepted? In the past, although everyone knew that this Ming Dynasty usurped power by Yu Xiaotian, at least there was a fig leaf. At least there was still an emperor in the court, and at least the world was still the world surnamed Zhu.
This gives many people a glimmer of hope that one day someone can help the royal family and bring the Zhu family back to power. In that case, there is still a trace of hope that what they lost before can be returned to them after the imperial power is returned to the royal family.
But now, once Chongzhen's Zen throne is given to Yu Xiaotian, then the Ming Dynasty will not be the Ming Dynasty in the future, and the world of the Zhu family will not live in the world of the Zhu family. In the future, the world will be surnamed Yu. The things that Yu Xiaotian took from them will never be taken back, and all hopes will be completely dashed.
Hearing the news, many people in the world immediately cried loudly and beat their chests, like mourning. Some people even jumped up and scolded Yu Xiaotian at that time, vowing to restore the Ming Dynasty and help Emperor Chongzhen to the throne again. Some people immediately said that they would die and could not let Chongzhen do anything. Zen throne to Yu Xiaotian.
Of course, some gentry clans in some areas used their local influence and control to immediately secretly plan to set up troops on the Qing Dynasty's side, completely die with Yu Xiaotian, and help the royal family.
In short, everywhere the news went, there was a sudden uproar.
Of course, it is undeniable that there are many people in the world who are happy with this news, especially those ordinary people who have received various new policies in the past two years. Most of them are grateful to Xiaotian.
And there are some people who, whenever a new policy is launched, they will carry out some propaganda or secretly publicize it among the people, counting the benefits that these new policies can bring to ordinary people, and why these new policies will be implemented, and publicize among the people. This is Yu Xiaotian's compassion for the people in supervising the country.
