Chapter 1062 Evacuate Shenyang

Wu Sangui ran into the city and saw the streets full of people preparing to leave the city, with a gloomy face.

"You go back to the palace, go to see your wife, clean up your home, and wait for the news from me!" Wu Sangui tied the horse's reins and ordered his subordinates.

"Slave takes the order!" The head servant held his fists and saluted, then pulled the reins and headed towards the royal palace.

Wu Sangui urged the horse and headed straight to Hong Chengchou's mansion.

Now Wu Sangui's mind is in a mess, and the pursuers of the Gan Army are approaching Chenyang. The 50,000 Gan Army who detoured from Yiwulu Mountain has also arrived at the Liaohetao and will soon cross the Liaohe River and fight to the city of Shengjing.

Shengjing must not be able to defend it, and Wu Sangui didn't know where he should escape.

Hong Chengchou is Wu Sangui's old superior and a smart person in Wu Sangui's eyes. He can only come to Hong Chengchou to discuss and ask where the way is.

At this time, Wu Sangui ran all the way to Hong Chengchou's mansion and found that the mansion was packing his luggage. Hundreds of big trucks were parked outside the door. Only then did he realize that Hong Chengchou had also caught a lot.

It seems that Hong Chengchou did not intend to stick to Shengjing, but this is understandable. The Qing army was defeated and sticking to Shengjing was a dead end. In the end, he could only force himself to death like Gongsun Zan.

Since Hong Chengchou is preparing to evacuate Shengjing, he must have figured out a way out.

"Chang Bo!"

Wu Sangui heard the sound, turned his head and looked at it, and saw a familiar figure walking out with a crutch.

"Gemaster Hong!" Wu Sangui was a little surprised. He hadn't seen him for more than a month. Hong Chengchou seemed to have been ten years old and was about to use crutches.

When Hong Chengchou came out of the mansion, he saw Wu Sangui, and a hint of joy appeared on his face, "Brother Chang, you'll be fine if you come back! How many soldiers have you brought back?"

Wu Sangui turned over and dismounted and sighed: "There are still 30,000 when crossing the river, but now there are only 3,000 left!"

Wu Sangui supported Hong Chengchou and said in pain: "Gei Master, the situation in the Qing Dynasty is over. Along the way, my troops and defected as a whole, only some old brothers and servants left to return to Shengjing with me."

I heard that only three thousand people were brought back, Hong Chengchou's eyes were a little dim and he knew he was powerless to turn things around.

The two of them were silent for a moment, and at this moment, a "dongdongdongdong" bell rang from the direction of the palace.

When Hong Chengchou heard the bell, he was excited, "The emperor summoned all officials to discuss matters, and we immediately went to the palace to meet the saint."

Wu Sangui was going to ask what Hong Chengchou should do next, but seeing this, he could only accompany Hong Chengchou to the palace first.

In the Qing Dynasty palace, eunuchs and palace maids were in a mess. Fulin made people ring the bell, but no one came to pay a visit for a while.

Thinking that the Qing Dynasty was about to perish, but she had never been a real emperor for a day, Fulin couldn't help but burst into tears, "Mother, is the Qing Dynasty really over?"

Bumu Butai's face was as frost as ice, and he scolded: "Son, you are the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. How can you cry? Take out the emperor's appearance and don't make people laugh!"

Fulin was unable to calm down, "Mother, the ministers have all run away, who else will come? Who will be laughing at me?"

At this moment, there was a noise outside the hall, and Hong Chengchou, Wu Sangui and others arrived.

The eunuch crawled in and reported, and Bumubutai lamented that Hong Chengchou had feelings and righteousness, and that her sacrifice was worth it.

"Emperor!" Bumubutai sat down and said to Fulin in a deep voice: "Sir Hong and the others are here, sit down!"

Not only Hong Chengchou and Wu Sangui, but also Oboi, Geng Zhongming and others. They had no choice but to surrender and would not end well, so they could only join forces to keep warm.

"I pay homage to the emperor, Empress Dowager!" Hong Chengchou and others entered the hall and bowed in a hurry.

"Sir Hong, please don't give me any gifts!" Bumu Butai hurriedly raised his hand and signaled, "You are here, my orphan and widowed mother have a support."

Seeing this, Wu Sangui and others were too lazy to salute and stood on both sides of the hall.

Hong Chengchou stood up with difficulty, and then said directly: "Empress Dowager! Emperor! The regent is defeated, and the elites of the Qing Dynasty are all lost. Now the two armies are approaching Shengjing. I invite the empress dowager and the emperor to leave Shengjing immediately with the slave to avoid the military front!"

When Fu Lin heard the words, he said in pain: "Sir Hong, is the Halal ending in the Great Qing Dynasty?"

Hong Chengchou comforted: "As long as the emperor is in the Qing Dynasty, he will still be there!"

Bumubutai said in a deep voice: "Master Hong, can Shengjing really not be able to stick to it?"

Hong Chengchou sighed, "The Gan Army will soon be at the city. Once the Gan Army sieges the city, there will be only one way to burn both jade and stone!"

"Where can Mr. Hong think we orphans and widows go?" Bumubutai asked in dismay.

Hong Chengchou said: "Empress Dowager, when he went to Hetuala, the slave had already transported a batch of supplies and equipment there. It was surrounded by mountains, easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it was our only way out."

Hong Chengchou was essentially pessimistic about the Qing Dynasty war.

Therefore, when preparing materials for the front line, he also secretly sent a batch of food and military funds to the Manchu lair, just in case he could retreat into the mountains to fight guerrillas if he was defeated.

For this reason, he also read Gao Huan's "Guerrilla Warfare" and other books overnight in case of emergency.

The Central Plains dynasties rarely effectively ruled outside the pass. Although the Nurgandusi was established during the Ming Dynasty, the only places under actual control were the Liaohe Plain and Liaodong.

For the Qing court, drilling into the mountains seemed to have become the last choice.

Hong Chengchou said anxiously: "Empress Dowager, the emperor, now the people are retreating to Hetuala. The pursuers of the Gan army are about to reach Shengjing. It would be too late if they don't leave!"

When Bumubutai heard the words, he made a decision for Fulin, "Since that's the case, I'll ask Mr. Hong to make the decision on everything!"

After everyone hurriedly discussed, they immediately organized the evacuation. Before the Gan army arrived, all the supplies in Shengjing City and the imperial palace were loaded and transferred.

Since the Liao incident, the Qing army robbed the Central Plains and robbed a large amount of gold and silver. Although the Qing Dynasty's treasury did not have much money, the Eight Banners nobles were actually relatively wealthy.

At this time, the north gate of Shengjing was wide open, and Hong Chengchou escorted Shunzhi and Bumubutai, escorted four or five hundred large carts, and marched towards Hetuara.

In the team, Wu Sangui followed behind with a gloomy expression. Geng Zhongming suddenly rushed forward and walked with him, "Pingxi King, do you think it is reliable to retreat to Hetulala?"

Wu Sangui had a calm face, "I don't know! I always feel that Gao Huan cannot leave such a hidden danger!"

Geng Zhongming looked around and said, "I feel so too! I think it's better to retreat to North Korea than to go to Hetuara. If the army arrives, we can run to the sea!"

Wu Sangui couldn't help but hold back the horse's reins when he heard the words, looked at Geng Zhongming, and nodded, "Old Geng, I think what you said is reasonable!"

Geng Zhongming said: "Then let's leave the team and go to North Korea together!"

Wu Sangui pondered for a moment, "Okay, go to North Korea!"

Geng Zhongming said again: "This time, North Korea will definitely have many places to spend money later, so it is better to......"
