"Don't do it, don't do it!"

The hundred households of the guard trembled when they saw this, and hurriedly threw down the sword in their hands, and the other veterans were also learned, and the sword was still making a sound on the ground, and none of them dared to resist.

The officers and soldiers of the Tianjin Sanwei Guard, who usually rely on the official skin on their bodies, extort money at the ferry.

They showed the color of tigers and wolves to ordinary people, but when they encountered hard stubble that they couldn't provoke, they nodded and were extremely obedient.

"A bunch of rubbish!"

Jiang Yingjie snorted coldly when he saw this, he was used to seeing this kind of person when he was in Kaifeng Mansion.

But during this time, he continued to train soldiers in the barracks, and his subordinates were all elites who could fight and dare to fight. I am used to seeing my own people, and when I look at these officers and soldiers of the guard, I don't feel good at it.

With such an obscene appearance, he is actually an officer and soldier of the Ming Dynasty?

After capturing these guards, Jiang Yingjie kept moving, leaving fifty people to guard the prisoners, and the other men and horses quickly took over the city not far from the ferry.

Tianjin Sanwei, nominally there are three thousand households, as well as garrisons, Tongzhi and other officials, thousands of soldiers,

But after Jiang Yingjie brought people into the city, he found that there were only five or six hundred officers and soldiers in the city, and they were all old, weak, sick and disabled.

The others were all guarded, educated, and thousands of households were paid empty wages.

This allowed Jiang Yingjie to take over Tianjin City and the ferry without any obstacles, and when everything calmed down, Feng Yuan led people into the city and let his soldiers and horses stay here to rest.

This time I went to Jingshi, and a lot of people was not necessarily useful.

With Jiang Yingjie staying here to guard the back road, Feng Yuan can rest assured.

......

Half a day later, a huge city appeared in front of me.

"This is Jingshi, what a majestic man!"

Feng Yuan took Gu Rujin, Zhao Heng and others to the outside of Jingshi City, looked at the city wall in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh.

The scale of this city wall is three points larger than that of Qingzhou City in the God World.

"It's a pity that the majesty of the city can't withstand the general trend of the world after all, the army is under the city, the people's hearts are unstable, and no matter how high the city wall is, it is useless!"

At the gate of the Beijing Division, a lot of officers and soldiers have gathered.

These people, led by hundreds of households, are strictly inspecting to prevent the spies of the Shun army from infiltrating the city.

At this time, Li Zicheng's Dashun army had already invaded Xuanfu Town, and it was only one step away from the Beijing Division. At such a juncture, no one dares to be negligent in the slightest.

Feng Yuan and his party scattered into the city. The streets of the city were wide, but there were not many pedestrians on the streets, and many of the people were in a hurry with sad faces. When he saw the soldier in official clothes, he hurriedly dodged.

There are also many people, covering their mouths, noses and faces full of sick faces, waiting at the door of the pharmacy to grab medicine.

Epidemics, wars. Even the people at the heel of the imperial city are inevitably affected by this calamity in this era.

"Childe!"

At this time, a man dressed in ordinary clothes scurried from the corner of the street with light steps and came to Feng Yuan and the others. This man is Hong Shenghai, who took refuge in Fengyuan in Jinling.

After defecting to Feng Yuan, Hong Shenghai was sent to Liaodong to lurk under Dolgon and continue to serve as a spy.

It's just that the master who serves has changed from Dolgon's side to Fengyuan's side.

Not long ago, he was sent to Beijing by Dolgon, preparing to wait for an opportunity to disrupt the Ming court. After he entered the pass, he sent people to pick up the embroidered guards under Feng Yuan.

Now that both sides have come to Jingshi, Hong Shenghai specially came to greet him.

"It's all your own people, don't say polite words anymore, go find a place to stay first!" Feng Yuan waved his hand and said lightly.

"The villain has prepared a place to stay, please come with me and my brothers!"

Hong Shenghai knew that everyone was coming to Jingshi, and he was already ready.

He hurriedly turned around and led the way in front, and led everyone along the street into the core of the inner city of the capital division.

The so-called inner city and outer city are only verbally divided, and the outer city is inhabited by ordinary people, while the inner city is mostly the residence of princes and nobles, as well as civil and military ministers.

As soon as they reached the inner city, they heard a noise coming from the streets.

Feng Yuan, Gu Rujin and the others looked at each other.

I saw some rich men with oily faces, crying in front of their mansions, and there were all kinds of pots and pans at the door. Sell at stalls.

There are also people who put a sticker on the wall of their mansion that reads "This house is for urgent sale".

"What's going on with these people?"

It was the first time Zhao Heng had seen this situation, and he couldn't help but ask in surprise.

He has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and his eyes are vicious, and he can see that these people who are crying and selling household goods are rich and oily, and their temperament is different from ordinary people, so they must have an identity.

"Hehe, they are all nobles and ministers in the capital!"

Hong Shenghai showed a trace of disdain in his eyes.

He pointed to one of them and said, "This is the emperor's father-in-law, Jiading Bo Zhou Kui, and that person is Chen Yan, a scholar...... A few days ago, the emperor issued an order to let the civil and military nobles in the capital donate money, and Zhou Kui and those grandfathers and uncles moved out their belongings, saying that they would sell them on the street......"

"These people don't want to donate money, so they cry poor and cheat here. Now the whole city knows about it!"

Zhao Heng was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but say: "I heard that Li Zicheng's soldiers and horses have arrived in Xuanfu and are about to hit the capital, and the emperor asked Xungui to donate some money to help him, which is reasonable, why are these people so stingy and unwilling to give out any money?"

"Hehe, Brother Zhao shouldn't know what these nobles think in their hearts, right? In the hearts of these people, Jiangshan Sheji belongs to the emperor. Even if Li Zicheng takes the capital, it has nothing to do with them, and this silver is his own!"

"It's worse to get these people to pay than to kill them. ”

Gu Rujin sneered.

"So that's the case, however, other nobles are not willing to donate money, this Jiading Bo Zhou Kui, but the emperor's father-in-law, if the Ming Dynasty dies, he will not end well. Why doesn't he want to pay?"

Zhao Heng was shocked.

"I don't know about this, but Brother Hong has a lot of eyes and ears in the capital, so he should know the reason, right?" Gu Rujin turned his gaze to Hong Shenghai.

Hong Shenghai shook his head slightly, and said: "I only know that this Jiading Bo is extremely stingy, almost a dime, and his nature is like this, until he dies, he will definitely not hand over a tael of silver!"

Feng Yuan listened to everyone's discussions, looked at those nobles on the street, and sneered slightly in his heart.

These iron roosters are crying poor now, and they don't want to give out any money, and they are full of thoughts about waiting for Li Zicheng to enter the city and become an official in the new dynasty.

When Li Zicheng's army really entered the city, they regretted it.

Li Zicheng commanded more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and after conquering the capital, he needed to be rewarded.

In the treasury of the Ming Dynasty, it is estimated that there are only tens of thousands of taels of silver, if Li Zicheng dares to only take this money and distribute it to the soldiers, he will definitely be overthrown immediately, and the throne will not be stable.

The treasury of the Ming Dynasty has no money, and the soldiers are still waiting for rewards, so Li Zicheng can only pay attention to these noble ministers like Emperor Chongzhen.

Li Zicheng is not Chongzhen, he has been fighting hard for so many years, his heart is as hard as iron, and his hands will inevitably be bloody.
