Chapter 675: A Flavorful Response
Chang Yu opened the door and let Li Muxian come in, and when he saw his sleepy face, he asked, "Why are you sleepwalking?" ”
Li Muxian hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, no, the overseer, I went to the thatched house just now and peeed on the ......" Chang Yu raised his eyebrows: "You came to discuss and urine with this governor?" ”
"After listening to the poor Dao," Li Muxian hurriedly said: "When the poor Dao just peed, he looked at the urine flow in that place, and suddenly thought of Dayu's water control." Chang Yu sneered: "Your imagination is quite rich...... "You were stunned randomly: "You mean it's better to be blocked?" ”
Li Muxian clapped his hand vigorously: "Not really, according to the previous plan of the Overseer, it should be to lead the troops to block the Tartars in that mountain nest in Miyun at any cost, and then beat them back to the original way and drive them out of the pass when the reinforcements arrive, right?"
Chang Yu snorted: "This is the best way right now, but it may not be able to block it."
"Since you can't be sure of blocking, why bother to do useless things regardless of casualties" Li Muxian had a straight face: "If you can't block it, let's let him come out, with the urine of the Tartars, you must first go to the outside of the capital to show off your might before you can leave, during this period, the scourge is limited but it also gives the reinforcements time to win, and when our army arrives, we can open the shelf and fight him."
Chang Yu nodded slightly, and shook his head again: "But once it is released, I am afraid that we want to fight, but people will not fight, not to mention that the Tartar cavalry horses are fast and good at fighting, we may not be able to catch up, and if we catch up, we may not win the fight, and it is even possible to follow the ass for thousands of miles without success, and watch him scourge."
Miyun is surrounded by mountains on three sides, Chang Yu just wants to use this terrain to block him in and fight, so that he can grasp it and control the loss to the smallest extent, otherwise once the Qing army rushes out, this thousand miles of plains, the invincible combat power of his iron cavalry, whether it is chasing or fighting, it is very difficult.
But as Li Muxian said, at the moment, this little bit of men and horses can't stop the 30,000 cavalry of the Qing army at all, and let these raw melons and eggs go to death in vain.
Li Muxian smiled when he heard this: "This is the inspiration of the poor road from a soak of urine, the current situation is like water control, it is better to block than to sparse, and when we wait for reinforcements to arrive after he comes out, the situation will become better than blocking."
Chang Yu was slightly puzzled, Li Muxian walked to the table and pointed to the map and said: "Governor, look, there are Miyun, Changping, Pinggu, Huairou, and Shunyi counties in the north of the capital, and this time they are all in a catastrophe, but the income from a few counties will inevitably not satisfy the Tartars, so where will they go next?" To the west, the mountains are reckless, the border city checkpoints are steep and there are heavy troops, and to the south there is our army, so he can only go east......"
Chang Yu understood in seconds: "So why should we chase him behind his ass, and the chase may not be able to catch him, so it's better to block him in front of him now."
Li Muxian nodded vigorously: "This plan can be done?" ”
"Although it is not the best choice, it is also the best at the moment" Chang Yu stroked his palms and praised his resourcefulness, and quipped: "You didn't expect Dayu to control the water after a day of rain, but he was inspired by a soak of urine, and the taste is very strong and in line with your temperament."
Li Muxian was stunned: "Is the overseer saying that the humble body stinks, and I haven't taken a bath for several days."
"No, Ben Du is saying that you are very coquettish and soothing," Chang Yu laughed.
In the early morning, when the rain and snow were tight, several horses to the Yongding Gate of Nancheng, and then surrounded by the soldiers guarding the gate, and immediately the knight took off the hat: "Jinyi Wei is ordered to go out of the city by the governor of Dongchang" said and took out the waist card.
The guards looked at each other: "According to the order of the governor of the Beijing camp, the door shall not be opened before dawn to let ......" and several horsemen arrived while speaking: "The Dongchang is ordered to go out of the city, and there is a warrant from the governor to go out of the city."
Seven outside the imperial capital and four in the nine imperial cities, the sunset is closed and the sunrise is open, and there are still a few people with special identities who can enter and exit freely when the inner city is closed, such as Wang Jiayan, such as several bigwigs in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, such as Chang Yu.
But there is only one person who can enter and exit the inner and outer cities at will, Chang Yu, the commander of the East Factory.
The defenders said no more and opened the city gate and let them ride out of the city, and the refugees waiting outside the city to enter the city were about to take advantage of the situation to pour in, and then they were beaten and dispersed, and the heavy city gates were closed again.
More than a dozen teams of officers and soldiers on the city wall patrolled back and forth, staring at the movement outside the city, although the wind and rain night did not dare to take it lightly, Wang Jiayan, the governor of the Beijing camp, wore a hat on his head, and led a few personal soldiers to check the post in the city, just at this time in the south city, I saw more than ten horsemen galloping out of the city, disappearing in the rainy night, raising their eyebrows, making people go to hear the news, and learned that it was Dongchang and Jinyiwei's people who went out of the city to do business on Chang Yu's order, and couldn't help but be stunned, this little eunuch didn't sleep so late?
Not to mention the two of them, Emperor Chongzhen in the imperial city has been sleepless for several days, the first few days were excited, the past two days are frightened, day and night diligent and anxious, only squint for a while when he is really sleepy.
Emperor Chongzhen, who was listening to the eunuch on duty, tossed and turned, sighed slightly and said softly: "Emperor, sleep for a while, you are about to go to court."
In the Ming Dynasty, the emperor did not need to go to the court every day, generally once every three or five days, and the Beijing officials above the fifth grade had to enter the palace as a counselor, which was a big battle, and the early dynasty on weekdays was more like a regular meeting, but the participants were all cabinets, the big men of the six ministries.
In the past few days, the court has been like a roller coaster, first good news and then falling to the bottom, the whole court is frightened when they hear that the Qing army has entered the customs, and some people even think of going out of the city to take refuge, but think about this big tomorrow, although it is big, where is there a stable place.
Emperor Chongzhen finally squinted for a while, and soon got up to wash up and eat a little, and the eunuch came to report that the cabinet ministers were waiting in the Imperial Palace, and Emperor Chongzhen went.
As soon as he came out of the Qianqing Gate, he saw Chunxiang coming in a hurry, this little eunuch who was as unknown as Chang Yu was already the second-in-command of the East Factory at this time, and he was reliable and tried his best to win Chongzhen's approval.
"Your Majesty......" Chunxiang leaned over and whispered, Chongzhen frowned: "This is not good."
Chunxiang hurriedly said: "Chang Gonggong said that it is very difficult at an extraordinary time, and others will not give us a son when he shouts his throat on weekdays, but now while the Tartar soldiers are in the city, if they still don't pull out a dime, then they really have no humanity, and it is not too much to use a little strong."
"However, this pair of ...... Emperor Chongzhen wanted to speak and stopped, he knew that Chang Yu wanted to get silver again, but this time the means were not clever, not to raise donations by chance, but to force donations, which would affect the image of the royal family and the imperial court.
Chongzhen is a good-looking person, and he thinks it's inappropriate.
"Not in the name of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, in the name of individuals". Chunxiang hurriedly said.
Emperor Chongzhen was stunned, such a big black pot Chang Yu was willing to carry it, his loyalty and courage can be seen every day, he couldn't help but be deeply moved, and sighed: "I wronged him."
"If you can't be wronged by Chang Gonggong, he said that he will raise donations in the name of Wu's commander......"
cough cough cough, Chongzhen almost choked: "I've never heard of this, I don't know anything" After speaking, he left, shaking his head and smiling bitterly as he walked, Wu Mengming, this unlucky kid......
