The gates of Shanhaiguan were wide open, and Qing soldiers wearing colorful armor lined up in a neat long line and stepped into Shanhaiguan with arrogant strides. After all, Shanhaiguanguan City was too small. Except for a few generals, most of the Qing army did not ride horses into the city, but placed war horses outside the pass and chose to walk into Shanhaiguan City on foot.

Walking in the front is the most elite Eight Banners Guardians. The so-called Guardians are the original white-armored Bayala soldiers. These white-armored soldiers covered with iron armor are the most elite heavy armored soldiers among the Qing army. When they ride on horses, they are the most elite heavy cavalry. When they all have armor, they are the most elite heavy infantry. When they pick up bows and arrows, they are the most elite archers.

The white-armored Bayala soldiers were wearing iron leaf armor with silver polished silver on the outside. They were covered with bubble spike cotton armor, and they were also wearing close-fitting chain armor. They were wearing triple thick armor, which could be said to be invulnerable to swords and guns. Although they were not as good as the iron armor camp formed by Zhao Peng, the iron leaves of the white-armored soldiers were very high in the neck, covering the entire neck and half of their faces. These strong men who lived in deep mountains and forests since childhood were able to fight against tiger bears. When they grew up, they went to the battlefield and were able to walk vigorously in heavy armor. Naturally, the war horses they rode were the best Wuzhumuqin horses, and the war horses were also protected by vests.

The famous Qing army general Obai was also a white-armored soldier. Because of his great military achievements, he was promoted from a soldier to Niuluezhen, Jialaezhen, Meilezhen, and to Gushanezhen.

Behind the white armored guards are the red armored guards, which are the original red armored bayala soldiers. Although they are also Bayala soldiers, they wear thinner and lighter red copper leaf armor, and also have neck protection. They wear a piece of foam nailed cotton armor inside, and there is no chain mail at the bottom. These red armored bayala soldiers are also excellent infantry and archers during infantry battles, but after getting on the horse, they are light cavalry. The horses they ride are not tall and strong Wuzhumuqin horses, but ordinary Mongolian horses.

Following the Eight Banners Guards was the heavy armored vanguard camp, which was the original Kabush Xianchaoha camp. Later, when Huang Taiji changed the Later Jin Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, Kabush Xianchaoha camp was changed to the vanguard camp.

This is the most elite heavy infantry riding, but they are both elite melee heavy infantry and the most elite archers. These heavy infantry wear different flags of foam nails, which are in four colors: red, white, yellow and blue. They wear a foam nails, and a chain mail inside. When attacking a solid target, some vanguard infantry will wear more iron armor on the outside of the cotton armor to serve as a dead soldier. The dead soldiers follow behind the shield chariot. The other vanguard infantry do not wear iron armor, but follow behind the dead soldiers as archers.

However, some of the infantrymen of the vanguard battalions used firearms. The firearms used by the infantrymen of the Eight Banners of Manchuria include bird guns, turtledove guns, light Franchise machines, tiger squat cannons and other firearms. When the firearms were riding horses, they placed their firearms on the horse's back. When fighting, they took off the firearms from the horse's back to shoot at the opponent.

Behind the heavy infantry of the Forward Battalion is the Xiaoqi Camp, which is the original Alihachaoha camp. After the little emperor of Shunzhi came to power, Dorgon changed the name of Alihachaoha camp to Xiaoqi Camp.

The Cavalry Camp is actually the Manchurian Eight Banners Heavy Cavalry Battalion. They were wearing foam nails and cotton armor, and there was also a chain mail in it. Although they were heavy cavalry wearing thick armor, they were not only fast in speed, but also had strong weight-bearing ability, and their endurance was not inferior to that of Mongolian horses. These heavy cavalry fought the Mongolian Golden Tent cavalry on the Mongolian grasslands, and chased Lin Danhan all the way, chasing Lin Danhan to the West Sea. The desperate Lin Danhan died in despair.

Following the Caval Camp were the Mongolian Eight Banners Light Cavalry. These Mongols were mainly Korchin Mongols, and there were also a few Tumotes and Chahars who were carried into the banner. As for the outer vassal Mongolia in the north of the Mobei, they were not among the Eight Banners. Mongolians in western Moxi were not conquered by the Qing Dynasty at this time, and they were still an independent kingdom. The Mongolian Eight Banners Light Cavalry had only a piece of foam nailed cotton armor on their bodies, and there was no chain mail inside.

Behind the Mongolian Eight Banners Light Cavalry are the Han Army’s Eight Banners heavy firearms, which are the original Wuzhen Chao Ha soldiers. The Three Shun Kings of the Qing Dynasty, who were in the team, were riding on the tall horses with a vigor. They were the King Kong Youde, King Huaishun King Geng Zhongming, and King Zhishun King Shang Kexi.

The infantrymen of the Eight Banners of the Han army wore the same as the light cavalry of the Mongolian Eight Banners. They only had a foam nailed cotton armor, neither iron leaf armor nor chain armor, but they were an army with a high degree of firearming. In front were infantry carrying bird guns, turtledove guns or Lumi guns, followed by cold weapons using big knives and long spears; in the middle were mules and horses pulling Fran machine cannons, general cannons, and gunmen from the cannon camps drove the mules and horses pulling the cannons; in the end, cattle and mules pulling the red cannons.

There were still some civilians living in Shanhaiguan City. In addition to the families of Guanning soldiers, some were merchants, shops, nearby gentry, scholars, their tenants, slaves, etc. This was the first time these civilians saw the legendary invincible Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers close.

"Is this the Eight Banners Army of the Qing Dynasty?"

"It's so majestic! Where can I have such a majestic elite in the Ming Dynasty?"

"I heard that King Sanshun was originally an officer and soldier of our Ming Dynasty. Their Dongjiang army was ragged and like beggars, now that they surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, they became so majestic."

The common people were talking and curiously watching the Qing army talk about their long-term and short-term views.

Teams of majestic Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers entered Shanhaiguan City in a mighty manner. Wu Sangui and Guanning soldiers stood on both sides of the street to welcome the Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers.

"The Regent arrived!" A long shout came from outside the city of Guancheng.

Wu Sangui hurriedly led the Guanning Army soldiers to kneel on both sides of the street to welcome Dorgon. Wu Sangui shouted: "My minister Wu Sangui led the Guanning Army soldiers to welcome the regent of the Qing Dynasty!"

Dorgon, riding a tall horse, came to Wu Sangui, jumped off the horse and helped Wu Sangui up himself: "Changbo, why should you be so polite? Come and refresh yourself! You will be the prince of my Qing Dynasty in the future, hahaha!"

"In front of the Regent, how dare I call myself a prince?" Wu Sangui said modestly.

"Hahaha!" Dorgon put his arm intimately on Wu Sangui's shoulders, "Chang Bo, I went to Rushan Haiguan alone, and didn't invite me in for a few drinks?"

Wu Sangui said flatteredly: "Please invite the prince."

Dorgon and a group of Qing army generals walked into the hall that Wu Sangui and the others had prepared for themselves, and the banquet had already been set up in the hall. Wu Sangui warmly invited Dorgon to sit on the main seat in the middle. Even the real owner Wang Yongji dared not say much, so he could only watch Dorgon sit on the main seat in the middle.

At the banquet, Dorgon once again proposed to help Wu Sangui expel the thieves. The Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty were brothers, and the Ming Dynasty ceded the north of the Jianghuai River to the Qing Dynasty as reward for borrowing troops from the Qing Dynasty to pacify the enemy.

Wang Yongji and others agreed to these conditions one by one. After all, the north had been destroyed long ago, and it was still a burden to stay in the hands of the Ming Dynasty. It would be better to cede to the Qing Dynasty in exchange for the Qing Dynasty to send troops to pacify the bandits.

After drinking and eating, Wang Yongji and Li Yutian and other civil officials were unwilling to surrender to the Qing Dynasty and said that they wanted to return to Nanjing. In order to win the hearts of the people, Dorgon did not force them to keep them, but agreed to them that after the Qing army recovered the capital, they would let them go to the Qing Dynasty to be an official, so they would go to Shengjing with the Qing army. If they didn't want to be an official for the Qing Dynasty, they would go back to Nanjing.
