Haoge's Zhenglan Banner was wiped out, and the Manchurian Eight Banners became the Manchurian Seven Banners, which was a huge blow to the Qing Dynasty, since Nurhachi created the Manchu Eight Banners, there has never been such a situation, after Huang Taiji created the Great Qing Dynasty, there were twenty-four flags at the same time, and now the Han Eight Banners and the Mongolian Eight Banners have completely disappeared and ceased to exist, and the next thing to die out is the Manchu Eight Banners.

Although Hauge was once an obstacle to Dolgon's quest for power in the Qing Dynasty, Dolgon was really saddened by Hauge's death, and Dolgon could always feel the feeling of the river going down.

Shenyang has fallen into a deep silence, by this time, not only the Manchurian nobles, not only the ministers of the court, but even the common people know that Shenyang will not be able to be saved, and the Qing Dynasty will not be able to be saved.

The rhythm of the battle is too fast, from the beginning of the first month, to the beginning of April, the Qing State can control the place, only the area around Shenyang remains, the rest of the place is occupied by the Ming army, with this place in Shenyang, if you want to make a comeback, it is almost impossible, if the Ming court adopts a closed strategy and cuts off all contact between Shenyang and the outside world, the Eight Banners Army cannot support it for a long time.

What worries Dolgon even more is that there are many Han people in Shenyang City, these Han people are either in the imperial court, or a slave of a certain Manchurian noble, and the number is also quite large, if these Han people are in chaos in Shenyang City, or even secretly respond to the Ming army that is eyeing them, then the situation will be even more difficult to control.

But Dolgon couldn't spare his hands to deal with the Han people in Shenyang City, because what he needed to do now was to first stabilize the situation in Shenyang and deploy the Eight Banners Army to better defend Shenyang.

At this point, any other ideas can be put aside and desperately defend Shenyang. Fighting with the Ming army in Shenyang is the last way out, and maybe a miracle can happen.

Among the Manchurian nobles, the voices of complaining came one after another, and at this time, some people jumped out. It is said that it should have been transferred to the north in the first place, and almost all the human and financial resources of the Great Qing State should not be concentrated in Shenyang.

This is indeed a major problem in the Qing Dynasty, but this problem has arisen since the time of Nurhachi.

Today's Manchu people are still the Jurchens of the past, and their ancestors almost all relied on nomadism for a living, and they were accustomed to carrying all their wealth with them, because life was often without a fixed place, and the days of relying on the mountains to eat and the sky were extremely difficult, and they had to change places at all times. This made the Manchurian develop the habit of carrying all his belongings with him.

Nurhachi founded the regime of the Later Jin, and after Huang Taiji founded the Great Qing State and set the capital in Shenyang, all the Manchu nobles came to Shenyang and brought all their wealth to Shenyang.

Shenyang became the capital of the Great Qing Dynasty, and it also became the concentration of almost all the wealth of the Great Qing Kingdom, including most of the wealth obtained by the Eight Banners Army every time they plundered in the pass. All were shipped to Shenyang.

The Ming army blockaded Liaodong and Liaonan and forbade mutual markets. After all, the Manchu nobles and their families all lived in Shenyang, and in order to ensure that they could live a good enough life, including the officers at all levels in the Manchu Eight Banners, they all transported their own money and property in the barracks to Shenyang. This makes Shenyang's supply not too difficult, but there is a shortage of green and yellow in other places.

The speed of the Ming army's attack was rapid, and the tactics of blockading and occupying Anle Prefecture, Zhenbeiguan and Tieling and other places were adopted, cutting off the evacuation route of the Eight Banners Army and other cities. Also because of the lack of supply, there was not much ability to resist the Ming army's attack.

It's like a domino, one domino falls, and everything else falls.

Dolgon actually recognized this problem, but unfortunately he didn't have time to change all this, just when he almost grasped the power of the Great Qing State and was about to let go of something, the Ming army began a full-scale attack on the Great Qing State, but many Manchu nobles did not understand his decision, delayed too much precious time, lost too many precious opportunities, and let the situation deteriorate rapidly, until it was beyond control.

Dolgon can't let go at this time, he can't let go, all his orders at this moment can be quickly implemented, but from the perspective of time, some are too late, and it has become an almost impossible task to save the Qing Dynasty.

Daisho Hall.

Dolgon looked at everything familiar around him, and he awaited the arrival of Daishan, Zilharang, and Azig.

I don't know how many opportunities there will be, this symbolizes how long the Great Hall of the Qing Dynasty can exist.

Dolgon is pessimistic in his heart, but this pessimistic mood can only be deeply hidden, and can never be revealed, as the prince of the Great Qing Kingdom, as an auxiliary minister, as a person who actually holds the power of the Great Qing Kingdom, any of his actions will cause extraordinary repercussions.

Dai Shan, Zilharang and Azig and others entered the Great Hall one after another.

The seats on the left and right sides of the main hall are still the same as before, without the slightest change, but Hauge, Duoduo and the others will never come to the main hall, and they will never be able to sit down.

After seeing that everyone was coming, the palace guards quickly prepared to report to the emperor.

Dolgon waved his hand, signaling the palace guards to wait for the time being, not to alarm the emperor.

In the past, Dolgon's action would definitely cause an uproar, but now no one has spoken, whether it is Daishan, Zilharang, or Azig, they all know that many of the decisions Dolgon made before were correct, at least these decisions were not implemented well, resulting in the Qing Kingdom falling into such a situation.

Dai Shan was even more embarrassed, as the first prince of the Great Qing Dynasty, one of the four great Baylors of the year, he should have been far-sighted, but when he was in charge of guarding the area from Anle Prefecture to Fushun, he made a naïve mistake, allowing the Ming army to easily occupy Zhenbei Pass, Anle Prefecture and Tieling, and completely blocked the route of the Eight Banners Army's northward retreat.

After looking at the people whose faces were not very good, Dorgon spoke slowly.

"I've reached the last moment of the Great Qing Kingdom."

"It is rumored that the Ming army's army of nearly one million is besieging Shenyang and is about to attack, and we can only live and die with Shenyang."

"What has passed, it becomes meaningless to pursue it, we are in a desperate situation, but it is not that there is no way out, as long as we can resist desperately and deal a heavy blow to the Ming army, the opportunity will come."

"Yesterday I occasionally heard news that the Ming army has been marched from Liaoyang, Fushun and Sarhu and other places, heading towards Shenyang, I am afraid that the Ming army is preparing to launch a large-scale attack."

"What I'm looking forward to is this day, if Emperor Zheng Xunrui of the Ming Dynasty blockades Shenyang, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to support it for a long time, Shenyang's Manchurian and Eight Banner Army, the total number of people is more than 150,000, these people are all going to eat, they are all going to live, how can we take out so much food, even if it is the grain and grass stored in Shenyang, it can last for about half a year, but what will we do after half a year."

"The Ming army decided to attack Shenyang, it was different, all the soldiers of our Eight Banners Army were Baturu, sworn to fight to the end with the Ming army, if we can win in the battle, then the predicament we are facing may be alleviated, and even we can take advantage of the victory to pursue and break through the blockade of the Ming army.".

When Dorgon said these words, there was not much expression on the faces of Daishan and the others, even Azig, who was quite impatient, did not speak, and no smile appeared on his face.

The destruction of Haoge and the Zhenglan Banner is a fatal blow to everyone, especially in terms of self-confidence, in terms of combat capability, the Zhenglan Banner and the Zhengbai Flag are almost on par, Dai Shan and others understand.

The most courageous Zhenglan Banner of the Great Qing Dynasty was completely wiped out by the Ming army, and the remaining Eight Banner soldiers could still create miracles, and what was even worse was that the Ming army almost occupied all the advantages.

Dolgon's inspiring words can be said to the soldiers of the Eight Banners, but when facing Dai Shan and others, saying it has no effect.

After Dolgon finished speaking, he saw that no one spoke, and he knew that he was reluctant to say this, but he had to say it, or it could be regarded as a reminder to Daishan and the others, or to cheer himself up.

"What I just said is the true thought of my heart, my Eight Banners Army is retreating day by day, and now all of them are concentrated in the places around Shenyang, it seems that we have no other way out, only to be exterminated by the Ming army in the end, but we have always been unconvinced, and the Ming army wants to exterminate our Eight Banners Army, but it can't be done."

Dolgon's confident attitude made Daishan and the others a little strange, and they raised their heads and looked at Dolgon.

"We can still rely on the grassland Horqin tribe, the Trans-Khalkha tribe, etc., I have ordered people to find a way to break through the blockade of the Ming army and go to the grassland to ask for help, we have a cold relationship with the Horqin tribe, I believe they will definitely rush to help, so we must hold on."

"The Ming army's large-scale attack on Shenyang is not a bad thing for us, if they blindly stick to it, it will be unfavorable for us."

"We still have a chance."

Dorgon's eyes sharpened as he said this.

"You are all the banner masters of the Eight Banners Army, how effective the soldiers under your command are, how their morale is, is closely related to your attitude, if you want to say that you are all disheartened, then what about the sergeants below."

As soon as Dorgon finished speaking, Zilharan spoke.

"What Prince Rui said is that if we can't beat the spirit, the sergeants below will be even more discouraged, no matter whether the Ming army will attack on a large scale or not, we all want to encourage the sergeants under our command, as long as we have confidence, the Qing Kingdom will still have a chance."
