With the arrival of winter, the Nenjiang River has frozen, and it looks desolate and white. The bullet marks and blood left when attacking Qiqihar are still strikingly left on the city wall, allowing Gong Zizhen and his party to patrol the city to recall the fierce battle.

After being bombarded many times, the rebels learned to be well-behaved. They hid under the city wall as soon as they shot the cannons, and they returned to the city wall after they shot the cannons. Both sides were like playing hide-and-seek. After the commander of the new army also followed the rules of the rebels, he returned to the person with his own way and suddenly changed the law of artillery on the third day. When the rebels who thought they had finished shooting the cannons climbed onto the city wall again, the artillery fire that should have stopped suddenly became fierce. The sound of cannons rumbled on the city wall, and gun smoke filled with them. There were countless rebels killed and injured by the bombardment. Among them, the south gate was the most, and the entire city at the south gate was blood. The flesh flew everywhere, and no one stood at the top of the city. After the bombing, the new army forcibly climbed to the south city with a barrel ladder, and then gradually expanded and won the East and West cities one by one. Finally, Guilun hurriedly withdrew from Qiqihar to flee to Melgen, and was severely damaged by the cavalry led by Senggelinqin on the road. The main force of the flag-protecting army was basically crippled in this battle. General Yihao, Ulya Sutai, was captured alive by the cavalry of Senggelinqin's cavalry during the retreat. General Lu Cheng of Jilin was shot dead by Yang Luchan, the commander of the first town of the new army. At this point, the flag-protecting army was only relied on the severe cold of winter to survive.

The successive victory since the war made Senggelinqin confidently say: "The General will continue to go north in the spring of next year to suppress the rebels."

Huang Juezi rubbed his hands but said, "Looking at the bottom, it is better to combine the suppression and servitude. Since it is not suitable for the army to operate in winter, I would simply send a qualitative person to Melgen to say that the Guilun and his group would surrender."

Gong Zizhen looked at the white air beside Huang Juezi's mouth and pulled the collar of the mink cloak and said, "Let's go back and talk."

Qiqihar is the headquarters of the generals of Heilongjiang and Guilun's old nest. In this battle of Qiqihar, Guilun forced the people to go up to the city wall to save the place, which aroused civilian changes in the city and reduced a lot of resistance for the new army to attack the city. Gong Zizhen was very careful about this. Before entering the city, he made three rules and strictly enforced military disciplines with the army as usual, so after entering the city, he was warmly welcomed by the local people of all ethnic groups, especially the Daur people. After entering the city, the army happened to move into the empty bannermen barracks, and Gong Zizhen and his party also moved into the former Heilongjiang General Mansion.

The Heilongjiang General's Mansion is built in a mixed brick and wood in the center of Qiqihar City. It is like a capital. However, most of the people who are stationed in the Eight Banners are empty. These bannermen were forcibly pulled into the army by Guilun. Now they all escaped to Melgen with Guilun. The vacant houses have been cheaper and the new army soldiers have become their barracks.

The group returned to the General's Mansion from the city wall, and a personal soldier stepped forward and pushed open the heavy gate of the General's Mansion. Gong Zizhen and others quickly stepped into the room, walked through the front yard and pushed open the gate of the central hall. As soon as they entered the room, it became warm like summer. Everyone took off their coats and sat down in the room around the hot kang against the wall.

After seeing two deputy generals, Senggelinqin, Huang Juezi, digital commanders and staff at all levels, Gong Zizhen asked someone to open a military map.

This map clearly identifies the territory under the jurisdiction of the Heilongjiang General. Now Qiqihar has been recovered, only the Deputy Chief Hulunbuir, the Deputy Chief Melgen and the Deputy Chief Heilongjiang in Aihui City have not yet been quenched. Gong Zizhen pointed to Melgen City and said, "The four rebel generals were caught and killed, and the remaining two were all hiding to Melgen City in the upper reaches of the Nenjiang River. Of course, we cannot forget that there is a third master (Miankai). Now we don't have to worry. My opinion is as Huang Juntai said. First, send people around to surrender to the two deputy chiefs stationed in Hulunbuir City and Aihui City, and then send people to persuade Guilun. If it is not possible, then use a large army to suppress it next year, and then persuade them to surrender."

Hulunbuir City is built next to the Hailar River. The most famous here are Hulunbuir Prairie and the two "Ambers" Hulunbuir and Beier Lake on the grassland. In winter, the lake surface is as icy as armor and snow as plain robes. The whole earth is vast and there is no vitality.

The deputy governor of Hulunbuir, Qi Busongao, stayed in the city, was depressed. The flag-protecting army lost consecutive battles and the triumph of occupying Shengjing was just a flash in the pan. The new army was defeated in a flash. In a flash, the new army was defeated by Qiqihar. Qibusongao was disappointed with the beautiful prospects that Guilun had originally portrayed. The generals from all over the country would definitely connect and enter Beijing together. It was simply bullshit. Now that the new army has recovered Jilin and fought Qiqihar. Even Guilun's nest has been lost. What else can we talk about fighting to Beijing?

Qibusongao has recently received news that Daoguang has made it clear that the conscription system will not be implemented in various places within ten years. This has allowed Qibusongao to see a glimmer of hope, why did he still accompany Guilun to die? Qibusongao has discussed with his subordinates, and everyone has the intention to survive.

It was also God's help to Qi Busongao, and Gong Zizhen's surrendered envoy arrived in Hulunbuir City at this time.

Without much trouble, Hulunbuir Deputy General Qi Busongao immediately got the promise of pardoning his crimes. Not only that, in order to make meritorious, Qi Busongao also wrote a letter to Aihui City to persuade the submission of Heilongjiang Deputy General Qi Busongao.

After receiving the news that Hulunbuir and Aihui's deputy governors returned to the court, Guilun received the court's envoys to surrender.

Melgen City is located on the east bank of Nenjiang River, the south bank of the Melgen River, and the city is named after the river. Melgen City was just a village in the early Qing Dynasty. During the Kangxi period, in order to fight the Russian Cossacks' invasion of the Heilongjiang River, it decided to build a city in Heilongjiang forever and set up a station from Heilongjiang to Wula, Jilin. Melgen was one of the stations in this area, and the village was changed to a station, with Soren's general station stations here. Later, the city was built and soldiers were stationed here, and the Heilongjiang General's Mansion moved to this city from Heilongjiang City. Later, the Heilongjiang General's Mansion moved to Qiqihar City, and this city was stationed with the deputy commander. Now there are two generals here, but unfortunately, both generals have not been recognized by the court.

As the situation was over, the former Heilongjiang General Guilun and the former Yili General Zalonga had differences on the issue of treating the imperial envoys. Zalonga suggested killing the envoys and defending Gucheng to the death. Guilun felt that this was an opportunity. Miankai, the other person attending the meeting, sat on the kang in a daze and did not express his opinion. Seeing that Zalonga's attitude became fierce, Guilun immediately softened and said, "Since that's the case, I will follow the brothers Zalonga. I will call people to kill the envoys outside." After saying that, Guilun walked outside. Nazalona saw Guilun leaving the house and walked out, but he was puzzled. Is killing an envoy worth Guilun personally to call people? After waiting for a while, Zalonga became alert in secret, and he hurried out, ignoring the six-god Prince Ke Miankai.

As soon as Zalonga left the door, he saw people coming from outside. One of them pointed at Zalonga and shouted, "It's him, kill him."

Zalonga naturally recognized that this man was Batulu, a warrior under Guilun. He hurriedly ran to his base. Before he could take a few steps, a group of people came out from the side. Poor Zalonga was bare-handed and was stabbed to the ground within two rounds.

Seeing that Zalonga's body was still twitching on the ground, Batulu flashed out from behind the soldier, stepped forward and took off Zalonga's head.
