The war has come to an end here.

No force can stop the Tiger Guards from seizing the Shanhaiguan Pass. This majestic pass will soon return to the hands of the Ming Dynasty.

Dorgon knew that it was time to face trial for his fate, even though he was so unwilling. But what else could he do?

Dying here might be a good choice for him.

At this time, Dorgon suddenly had a strange idea in his mind. He wanted to meet Ding Yunyi to see what kind of person his enemy was.

He didn't know why he had such an idea.

The road was finally cleared, and now, the terrifying musketeers of the Tiger Guard appeared. Once such a force appears on the battlefield, it means that the countdown to the end of the war has begun.

The familiar gunfire that frightened the Qing soldiers appeared again in Shanhaiguan.

This is a weapon that seems impossible to withstand in this era. It is a nightmare weapon for the Qing army.

Thousands of Qing soldiers fell into a pool of blood under the roar of muskets, and this further accelerated the capture of Shanhaiguan by the Tiger Guards.

The only one who can stop the Tiger Guards may be the Tiger Guards themselves, right?

The casualties of the Qing army are constantly increasing... This has even reached a terrifying level... In some places, the Qing army has already surrendered.

The confidence that Dorgon had built up when he proclaimed himself emperor disappeared without a trace in an instant under the blows of barriers and muskets. What was left was the most desperate struggle.

The Tiger Guards were like a tide, drowning the enemies in front of them in waves. They opened their bloody mouths and continued to swallow up one life after another.

Nikan also died, and he died in front of Dorgon.

In fact, Dorgon had already become numb by this time. Too many people had died, and if more people died, it would be nothing more than that.

He saw the Ming war flags fluttering in the wind inside the pass, which was simply a kind of torture for him and the Qing army.

He looked at the subordinates around him and found that their faces were full of helplessness and despair. He found that these subordinates of his had really completely lost their determination to continue to resist...

He smiled, and at this moment he actually laughed. Your Majesty? How long has it been since you proclaimed yourself emperor? Is this simply a farce? Will it be laughed at by people in the future?

Will his name be on the pillar of shame?

Dorgon can no longer control this.

"Your Majesty, a large number of Ming troops have also appeared over there."

This report immediately caused huge panic and commotion. What does this mean? It means that the escape route has been completely blocked.

On the contrary, Dorgon had nothing to fear. Maybe all this had been expected by him?

"Order everyone to surrender." Dorgon suddenly said these words slowly.

The subordinates were stunned: "Your Majesty, we can still fight!"

Although they know that this time they are bound to lose, they are not willing to stop resisting.

Because they know what it means to stop resisting!

They are the last strength of the Qing Dynasty and the last hope of the Qing Dynasty. If they stop resisting, then the Qing Dynasty will really be over. Who else can save the fate of the Qing Dynasty? Who else can reverse all this?

"Surrender." Dorgon repeated his words again: "Too many people have died. There is no need for more people to die. Surrender is shameful, but it is a relief for them!"

By them he meant the soldiers who were still fighting...

The Manchu generals lowered their once-high heads. Once upon a time, they showed off their power in front of the Ming Dynasty; once upon a time, they entered the country to plunder again and again; once upon a time, they had no doubts about destroying the Ming Dynasty.

But now everything they knew has been turned upside down.

They were the ones who suffered the humiliation of failure. And this failure made it impossible for the Qing Dynasty to stand up again. What exactly caused this?

All of their eyes fell on a huge battle flag:

The brave and loyal tiger guards!

Maybe this is the reason why they failed...

...

On April 23, Dorgon, the former auxiliary king of the Qing Dynasty and the pseudo-"weizheng emperor", ordered the surrender.

The Battle of Shanhaiguan is over!

After Huang Taiji claimed to be emperor, the Manchu Qing Dynasty experienced a total of three emperors: Huang Taiji, Fulin, and Dorgon.

Huang Taiji died of illness, but Fulin and Dorgon became prisoners of the Ming Dynasty.

Cheers spread throughout Shanhaiguan inside and outside!

Victory, this time it was a real victory. When Shanhaiguan was captured, it meant that they had finally taken the last step to victory.

Maybe the Manchus will still resist, but that doesn't matter anymore. It's just a small commotion.

Seeing the cheering Tiger Guard soldiers, the generals were also excited. They did not expect that victory would come so early, or even come so easily.

In the afternoon, Ding Yunyi, the mighty king of the Ming Dynasty, entered Shanhaiguan!

The cheers sounded again!

This is the most glorious day of Ming Dynasty. This is the most proud day of Ming Dynasty! No one can forget this day, and the glory of this day will be deeply imprinted in everyone's heart.

Long live the Ming Dynasty!

However, it was obvious that Ding Yunyi did not have much energy to accept such cheers. Although the Manchu Qing Dynasty was defeated, there were still too many things waiting for him to do.

The generals of the Huben Guards were summoned immediately.

"I know that everyone is excited about defeating the Manchu Qing this time...but I think now is not the time to be excited..." Ding Yunyi said straight to the point: "The Qing Dynasty fell. Li Zicheng died, but the rogue bandit Zhang Xianzhong returned.

Now, I decided to take advantage of the victory to pursue and continue the crusade against Zhang Xianzhong."

Speaking of this, he glanced at Li Dingguo. He originally wanted Li Dingguo to kill Zhang Xianzhong, but after thinking about it again, Li Dingguo was once Zhang Xianzhong's adopted son, so doing so would be a bit too unkind. After thinking for a while, he said:

"Huangfu Yunjie, Houlu, Ahu!"

"Here!" The three people responded and walked up.

"The three of you will each lead an army, divide the troops into three groups, and attack the rebel Zhang Xianzhong!" Ding Yunyi said slowly: "I will give you whatever you want, artillery, muskets, I will give you the most comprehensive support! One year

Within this period, Zhang Xianzhong must be annihilated!"

"yes!"

Ding Yunyi listened to the three people's high-spirited answers and nodded with satisfaction: "Time is urgent. Let's set off immediately."

Watching the three people leave, Ding Yunyi pondered for a moment: "I have decided to leave Shanhaiguan and return to the capital tomorrow. The late emperor regards me as the general marshal of the world's soldiers and horses, and Ding Yuanzhao, Minister of the Ministry of War!"

"Here!" Although his son called him by his first name, Ding Yuanzhao didn't feel there was anything wrong.

"In the name of me, the generalissimo, and the Ministry of War, the Ming troops in various places should stay put and wait for orders."

"yes!"

After giving instructions one by one, Ding Yunyi breathed out softly: "Bring Dorgon up to me."

Dorgon was brought up.

This was the first time for Ding Yunyi to see Dorgon so close. This man who once destroyed the Ming Dynasty in his memory has now become his prisoner.

Ding Yunyi smiled: "Have you thought about today?"

"No." This was the first time Dorgon saw Ding Yunyi at such a close distance: "I always thought that I would be able to destroy the Ming Dynasty sooner or later, but now I have failed. Ding Yunyi, please find me a stool."

Ding Yunyi magnanimously asked someone to find him a stool. After Dorgon sat down, Ding Yunyi said: "Actually, I thought of it a long time ago. But what I didn't expect was that you didn't commit suicide, but chose to surrender.

."

"I want to see you." Dorgon did not hide his inner thoughts at all: "I almost succeeded. If I can work harder when we are in a piece of stone, and the soldiers can be braver, then the winner will be

Maybe it’s me.”

Ding Yunyi shook his head: "Not necessarily. Suppose I died on a piece of stone that day, Shengjing will definitely be captured. And if Shengjing is lost, you will be like a bereaved dog. The only one you can rely on is Shanhaiguan. Without my Huben

Wei, may fall into chaos for a short time. But someone will definitely come forward, and I have already made arrangements..."

In front of Dorgon, he was a winner, so he didn't mind saying what he was thinking:

"I can completely accept that my death can lead to the victory of the entire war, so you will fail sooner or later. I think you have seen the weapons of the Tiger Guards with your own eyes. Do you think you will be given another chance? We have hundreds of thousands of troops.

Lined up on the battlefield, facing each other in a decisive battle, do you have a chance of victory?"

Dorgon thought for a moment, and then shook his head honestly. He simply couldn't deny this.

For the Qing army, those firearms were really terrifying, and they were simply not something the Eight Banners cavalry could withstand.

Dorgon asked his doubts: "Ding Yunyi, I remember that you were just a small patrol officer eleven years ago. Why did you rise to where you are today in such a short period of time? What is the reason for your powerful firearms unit?

How was it established?”

Ding Yunyi was silent for a moment: "There is an element of luck, but I think more of it depends on what I know...Dorgon, the age of firearms, or the age of hot weapons, has arrived, and it cannot be obtained with swords and spears alone.

Victory in the war is where I am better than you, so I started to form my own firearms unit a long time ago. There is another point that you may not believe, but ten years ago I was preparing to fight with you.

The decisive battle, of course it was just an idea at that time."

Dorgon shivered.

If the truth is really what Ding Yunyi said, it would be terrible. Were you preparing for the decisive battle with the Qing Dynasty ten years ago? No, there was no Qing Dynasty at that time, and all there was was Hou Jin. But, this
To be continued...
