    "Don't you want to ask him?"

    Daishan stared at Hauge and said word by word: "Do you know that you and your Zhenglan Banner are in danger? Do you know that the emperor will die at any time? Do you know that our Qing Dynasty is in danger?  If you are too tired, do you know that our Qing Dynasty is about to perish?"

    "Do you know a few of them?" Hauge was speechless when asked.  Does Hauge really not know? Although Hauge has a rough personality, he is not a fool. He knows all these things, but he and many princes and generals of the Qing Dynasty are not willing to face this reality.

    In the past, they were the ones who chased and spanked the Han people, but this was only a few years ago.  Ah, the Han Dynasty Jingran also became arrogant and forced the Qing Dynasty to this step. If they could not defeat this Chinese army, the Qing Dynasty would be destroyed.

    "Okay, go to hell with me!"

    No matter how reluctant he was, Hauge had to succumb to the strong pressure of reality.  If the Dahua Army is allowed to break through the Fusheng Gate, it will leave a stain on Hauge's life, and the emperor's throne will be further and further away from him.

    But will Dorgon help his competitor?  Hauge didn't know, but now he could only place his hope on Dorgon to put the overall situation first and give him a hand.

    But Hauge¡¯s hope was soon cruelly shattered.  When Haug came to Dorgon and asked him for any good strategies to defeat the enemy, Dorgon gave him a bloody answer.

    "Prince Su, the situation is still irreversible. The outer city wall cannot be defended. Should we retreat to the inner city wall?"

    "What? Retreat to the inner city wall?"

    After hearing this, Hauge was stunned as if he was struck by thunder.  After years of management, Shengjing had two city walls built at this time, and another one was cast behind the outer city wall to provide an additional means of resistance when the outer city wall fell.

    There is an open space between the inner city wall and the outer city wall, forming an urn city. This is also the last line of defense for Shengjing. If even the inner city wall falls, it means that Shengjing has fallen.

    But for Hauge, it was a great shame and humiliation for him to be forced to retreat to the inner city wall because the area he was defending fell. From now on, Hauge could no longer hold his head high among the crowds.

    "Why, Prince Rui, is there such a way? Or are you unwilling to help me!"

    Hauge¡¯s red eyes stared directly at Dorgon, and his eyes became red because they were filled with bloodshot eyes.

    Dorgon smiled coldly: "Prince Su is wrong. I am just a county prince now, not a prince anymore. I hope Prince Su will not get confused about this, so as not to blame me again when the emperor wakes up."

    "you"

    Hauge couldn¡¯t breathe and almost fell to the ground.

    This Dorgon was so angry. Who didn't know that Huang Taiji had been in a coma for five or six years? Seeing that he had kicked up his legs at some point, Dorgon was even afraid that Huang Taiji would wake up and blame him.  , isn¡¯t this a slap in Hauge¡¯s face?

    Looking at Hauge, whose face turned from red to blue, and then from green to white, Dorgon felt that the depression suppressed by Huang Taiji over the years had dissipated a lot, and he only felt a sense of relief in his heart.

    "Huang Taiji. Ah Huang Taiji, not only did I sleep with your daughter, but I also threw your most valued son into the abyss, so that you can die in peace."

    But Dorgon Bi Jing was also one of the most wise men in the Qing Dynasty, so he would not be so stupid as to bury the Manchus with the Qing Dynasty for the sake of his own private interests.

    Looking at Hauge who was about to explode, Dorgon said sternly: "Prince Su, what I said is definitely not nonsense. Now the Chinese army has come to attack the city wall. Their sharp weapons are very powerful, and the opponent's artillery is also very powerful."  It's very powerful. If we persist, I'm afraid there will be more casualties.

    It is better to retreat to the inner wall to defend. As long as the inner wall is removed, their artillery will be useless. Without the artillery, the Chinese army will have a broken arm. It will be much easier for us to defend by then. What about you?  "

    Hauge was startled after hearing this, and then nodded slowly after thinking about it. He had to admit that Dorgon's words made sense. He thought about it again and again before nodding in agreement.

    Seeing Hauge finally lowered his head, Dorgon showed a sarcastic smile. Without the support of Huang Taiji, Hauge is like a tiger without teeth and will never be his opponent. It seems that he has been  's wish will come true.  However, this wish was based on the shaky foundation of the Qing Dynasty. Is it really worth it?

    Dorgon doesn¡¯t know this problem. At the moment, he can only try his best to resist and fight for a while for the Qing Dynasty.

    However, when Hauge, Daishan and Dorgon invited Azig, Dudu and others to discuss retreating to the inner city wall, they were questioned.?

    "What? Abandon the outer city wall and enter the inner city to defend? The fight lasted a long time. Ah, let's retreat into the inner city. If the inner city cannot resist, then where should we retreat?" The first person to object was Aziz.

    Dorgon asked coldly: "Then Brother Twelve, do you have any good ideas?"

    Azig is a biological brother to Dorgon and Dodo, but his relationship with Dorgon is not as close as Dorgon and Dodo. Therefore, he often questions some of Dorgon's proposals.

    After hearing what Dorgon said, Azig said without hesitation: "What's the matter? Let's gather our troops and drive the Chinese army out. In short, this outer city wall must not be given up easily!"

    After hearing Azig¡¯s words, Dorgon¡¯s face looked very ugly.  Just when he was about to persuade, several explosions continued to be heard from the nearby city wall, and at the same time, there were screams and wails from the Qing soldiers. It was Dahua soldiers who continued to bombard the city wall with thunderbolts.  The Qing soldiers on board.

    For a new thing like Hong Yao Lei, the Qing soldiers did not have any good way to resist it for a while.  Use a shield to block it. It doesn't matter if it comes in. If it falls under your feet, it will still explode. If you want to throw it back, it's too dangerous. No one wants to play with the Chinese army and throw sandbags at each other with a thing that can explode at any time.

    It is not that the Qing soldiers have never tried to shoot them with bows and arrows, but the power of bows and arrows against the Dahua army who have formed a military formation and are protected by shields outside is not so powerful, so the helpless Qing army can only  They retreated step by step in front of the Dahua army that had formed a military formation.

    Looking at the Qing army retreating step by step in the distance, even if Azig is reluctant to give up the outer city, there is no good way.

    Seeing Azig's helpless look, Dorgon said coldly: "Brother Twelve, what are you doing? We, Bai Shao Erlang, can't survive anymore. If we don't evacuate the inner city as soon as possible, we will have to stay here again."  Warriors who suffered more casualties!¡±

    Daishan on the side also beat the drum, "Yes. Ah, Azig, what Dorgon said makes sense. Let's evacuate the inner city. At least there, Dahua's artillery can no longer exert its power. It's gone."  With the raging artillery fire, we Manchu warriors no longer need to be afraid of them."

    Azig thought for a while, looked at Du Du, the leader of the flag with a red flag beside him, and finally nodded, "Okay, I just hope that after retreating from the inner city, we can support the emperor to wake up!"

    After listening to Azige's words, everyone sighed in unison. It was really untimely for Huang Taiji to fall this time. Shengjing now has no one at all, and there is no one to give orders when the war begins.  Even the smallest thing makes them argue.  On the contrary, there are quite a few people who want to be the leader, but not too many who are fighting openly and secretly.

    Fortunately, the Chinese army is now in front of us, otherwise Hauge and Dorgon might have started to quarrel or even fight.

    "Hurry, brothers, come on, we are about to drive the Tatars out of the city wall, come on. Ah!"

    Unlike the Qing soldiers who were dejected, the Chinese army was full of morale at the moment. Seeing more and more soldiers climbing up the city wall, everyone knew that the city wall was about to be captured.

    Even in the large formation more than a mile away from the city wall, Li Yan and others were paying close attention to the situation on the city wall.

    Li Yuan put down the telescope, looked at Fusheng Gate, and murmured: "Grandma, I really made that old man succeed. It's so damn frustrating."

    Wei Jiang on the side saw that Li Yuan was a little upset, so he smiled and said: "General Li, you don't have to be upset. Shengjing is very big. Now we just broke through the first city wall. There is also an inner city wall.  , that city wall is not that easy to fight, let¡¯s see how General Zu attacks it!¡±

    "Yes, that's right!" Li Yuan also nodded. He also knew that any city with an urn city was difficult to attack. Shengjing was Manru's capital, and Manru would not give in so quickly.

    Wei Jiang continued: "Besides, we have already made a lot of contributions, and it is time to leave some for those Liaodong generals."

    "Well, that's true."

    Li Yuan nodded. As an old man who followed Pang Gang from the beginning, his merits are not that important anymore. As long as he can maintain the holy family, when the whole country is evaluated, they will have the benefit of being granted a wife, a shadow, or even a title.  , why do they bother to compete with these newly surrendered Liaodong generals for credit?  It's better to be a smooth person to them and make more friends in the future.

    Thinking about this, Li Yuan calmed down and began to pay attention to the movement of the city wall again.

    Suddenly, a roar of cheers and thunder came from the front.

    "The city is broken, the city is broken, let's break in!"

    Waves of cheers resounded through the sky

    "What, the city is broken?"

      Li Yuan quickly looked through his telescope and found that the originally closed city gates and suspension bridge had slowly opened, and the officers and soldiers of the Dahua Army below were pouring in like a tide.
