Chapter 486 The Crown Prince Arrives in Beijing
There are only two roads before Dorgon, either surrendering in full or resisting to the end.
The battle Azig fought was still in front of these people. If they were to go out of the city to resist, it would inevitably be the result of the destruction of the entire army.
They had already plucked up the courage to resist to the end, but a bombardment on the city wall immediately destroyed their little will to resist.
The ancestors of the Qing people conquered the world on horseback. Their generation was still bloody, but these people in the capital were completely different.
After enjoying the prosperity of the capital, you ask them to go to war with their waist knives, I'm afraid these guys will not have the energy.
"Mr. Fan, I entrust you to go out for negotiations this time, as long as we can save our lives..."
After thinking for a few hours, Dorgon finally issued an order, and this negotiation was definitely not delaying time, but a real peaceful negotiation.
"I understand that I will definitely give my all, but Prince Pingxi and others..."
Some things must be mentally prepared.
According to the previous charter for peaceful negotiations, if the requirements of the Southern Ming court were not met, the negotiations would not be able to continue. They have been tested several times, and the Southern Ming court had no intention of retreating.
"Wu Sangui is in Haoge. Even if we agree, I'm afraid Wu Sangui won't surrender. Just tell them about our situation and try to protect these people. If you really can't protect them..."
Dorgon didn't finish his words, but Fan Wencheng already understood.
Although Fan Wencheng is a negotiator, Fan Wencheng knows more clearly that he is also one of the traitors.
The reason why the Southern Ming court did not add his name was to promote negotiations as soon as possible. If he had any bad effect on it, he would probably not have had any good results.
Duoduo and Ajig frowned in fear. They were also on the list of war criminals. After all, after entering the pass, these two guys burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of evil, and many people died at their hands.
If the Southern Ming court disagreed with this, they had to resist to the end.
Prince Li breathed a sigh of relief at this time. For him, he had nothing to be afraid of.
After entering the pass, the old man kept eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddha's name, so he didn't do anything that would harm the world.
He also listened to the negotiations for several days. Except for those who were extremely guilty, the Southern Ming court would not hold people accountable casually, so negotiations were the best for him.
"So about the compensation and the emperor going to Nanjing to apologize?"
Since we are going to have real negotiations, Fan Wencheng must understand Dorgon’s bottom line.
Otherwise, continue to delay, just like you are making a hindrance. The Southern Ming court must not hate yourself.
No one knew what was said in the house. He only knew half an hour later, a letter was shot out from the walls of the capital, just as if it was during the previous negotiations, and the two sides had to resume negotiations.
"See Your Highness the Crown Prince."
In the big tent that was covered with walls, Zhu Cixuan rushed to the capital.
Originally, Zhu Cixuan handed over everything to Hu Qiang, but the current situation is a bit beyond people's expectations. Even if there is a negotiation, he has to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to do so.
The letters coming and going were really troublesome, so Zhu Cilang simply rushed over.
It has been a long time since he was reborn in this world. Zhu Cilang was also very capable of riding a horse, so he finally arrived in the capital after several days and nights.
"Everyone, everyone will get up. In the battle of the capital, you can say that you have made great contributions. I remember everything in my heart. After returning to the capital, you will be rewarded."
The tedious etiquette was indeed abolished within the army, but when meeting His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you have to follow the previous etiquette.
"Your Highness, this is a letter written by Dorgon, the regent of the Qing Dynasty. They want to restart negotiations tomorrow."
Hu Qiang hurriedly handed over the letters received from the front line.
Their frankness can be seen from the words, but these Qing people were also extremely cunning.
Zhu Cilang didn't dare to believe them too much. These people were all under the Nurgandus, but in the end they almost swept the Ming Dynasty, so Zhu Cilang had to be more sceptical about them.
What's more, from the rise of the army to the present, there have been so many battles between the two sides, and hatred has penetrated into the bone marrow. Can negotiations be negotiated?
"Your previous requests were good, so I won't interfere. I just started with the negotiations tomorrow and collected them 2 million taels of silver every day. We don't have that much time to spend with them."
After Zhu Cilang finished speaking, everyone below nodded.
Regardless of whether the other party is a real negotiation or a fake negotiation, as long as they want to talk to us, they must give out real money and silver. If this is another plan of the Qing Dynasty, how can we persist?
"Your Highness, can you consider the issue of these war criminals? If we still do not step back, the negotiations will be difficult to complete."
Shi Kefa also followed from behind.
"What do you think?"
Zhu Cixuan did not answer this question, but instead asked the soldiers on the front line.
After all, if we can have such a situation today, these soldiers have the most say. Without their bloody battle, how can we force the Qing people to this end?
"I dare not be tempted. I have fought bloody battles with all the soldiers of today's capital. From Dezhou, Shandong to the capital of Beijing, our army suffered 6,050 casualties. If we forgive these people, the soldiers who died may not be willing. What's more, the villages along the way are empty. According to our statistics, after the Qing people entered the pass, at least millions of people died and tens of millions were displaced."
If it were normal, Hu Qiang would definitely not choose to go against the court ministers, and this guy would also find a way to settle the matter.
But when it comes to such big trouble, this guy will never take a step back. Apart from our dead brothers, don’t the wronged souls of ordinary people need to be comforted?
"I agree with the general's view, killing the King of Goryeo, so that all vassal states can know the prestige of our Ming Dynasty, and the mistakes made by the Qing Dynasty are more serious than those of the King of Goryeo."
