The imperial city is closed at sunset, and the palace is the same, one door and two worlds, the palace gate is closed, and outsiders are not allowed to enter, and the emperor will not go out, but since Chang Yu fell from the sky, many rules of the Ming Dynasty are making exceptions.

For example, he can enter and exit the imperial capital Sijiu City at will, for example, he can also enter and exit the palace after dark, for example, now, Emperor Chongzhen rushed out of the palace in the middle of the night, followed by a group of eunuchs and went straight to Donghua Gate.

Zhang Shize, the British prince on duty in the imperial city, and others hurriedly trotted over without knowing what was going on: "Emperor, emperor, what happened......

Emperor Chongzhen didn't have time to pay attention to him, he shouted to open the door from the Donghua Gate, and the eunuchs and guards guarding the door hurriedly opened the door with a confused face, and saw the emperor and his party go straight to the Yamen of the Inner East Factory.

Zhang Shize and the others stopped at the gate of Donghua, looked at the yamen of the inner Dongchang and suddenly smiled, as expected, what happened to the little eunuch, touched Tianwei, this dog eunuch is bad behind his back every day, and he is really punished.

In the yamen of the inner east factory, the lights were bright, the hall was crowded, Chang Yu was sitting in the middle, and an imperial doctor was stitching up the wound with needles and threads, and his hands were covered with blood and his heart was chilling.

"The emperor has arrived" shouted outside the courtyard, and everyone in the hall hurriedly rushed out of the door to stand on both sides to greet him, and Chang Yu rushed in as soon as he got up: "You...... Is it badly injured? He saw that Chang Yu's face was pale, and his whole body was soaked in blood, obviously losing too much blood, his heart was very shaken, and he couldn't help but tremble and said: "Why bother fighting like this, if something happens to you...... This, who will clean up this mess for me! ”

Until this moment, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly realized that this little eunuch who was suddenly born was so important to him, from the beginning when he knew this person, it was only because he was the prince's henchman who buried the treasure for the royal secret, and then because of his good fists and feet, he saved a game in the palace and made a lot of money for the royal family, so that Emperor Chongzhen had a blue eye.

Of course, when the gold shines, he still bets on Taiyuan, and becomes famous in a blockbuster battle, and then he is out of control, and finally becomes the mainstay of the Ming Dynasty, and it is the spiritual pillar of Emperor Chongzhen.

"It's just a skin injury, don't read it, the emperor doesn't read it" Chang Yu pretended to smile lightly, but everyone could see how reluctant it was, this sudden arrow shot very tricky, and it actually hit the neck through the gap in the armor, and almost broke the artery, this is also the most serious injury Chang Yu has ever suffered from crossing over, in the past, the broken bones and flesh were restored to normal in a few days with their super self-healing ability, but this time it was indeed broken blood, and the blood flowed more than the vitality was greatly injured, not to mention, a careless can burp.

Emperor Chongzhen sighed and looked at the wound, and asked the imperial doctor a few words, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief when he learned that the bleeding had been stopped, and waved his hand, and everyone in the room withdrew from the door, leaving only him and Chang Yu.

"What happened to the cannon fire just now, you went out of the city to attack the camp, what did you get?" Emperor Chongzhen asked.

Chang Yu told the truth, and Emperor Chongzhen was stunned at the moment: "Two thousand dead soldiers, eight or nine out of ten, Chang Yu, you are ruthless!" ”

"I can't bear the child and can't trap the wolf" Chang Yu lowered his head and sighed: "Minister, I am willing to bear all the infamy and responsibility."

"You don't have to bear any responsibility" Emperor Chongzhen got up: "How can there be immortals in war, they sacrifice their lives for the country as heroes of the Ming Dynasty, and the rewards and pensions of those dead soldiers are all paid by me, and they are paid by the internal funds, without a penny from the treasury."

Chang Yu was silent, sighing in his heart, I have been waiting for you for a long time.

"Can you really keep Dolgon after all this toss? Will he really attack the city? Emperor Chongzhen asked again, Chang Yu said: "I don't dare to say that I can keep him, but I must have angered him, Ming'er will pour a little more oil, and this matter will be done, leaving him for two or three days is not a big problem."

Chongzhen was silent for a while, pacing in the room for a long time until he took a long breath at the door: "In previous years, when the Tartars entered the customs, the court burned incense and worshiped the Buddha and prayed that the Tartars would go away...... Hey, may those two thousand Ming men not die in vain" said and turned his head to look at Chang Yu: "It's good to live and recuperate, if you have an accident, how many people will have to bury you" said and turned to leave.

Chang Yu sent it to the Yamen, saw it enter the Donghua Gate, walked to the railing of the moat and sighed lightly, Emperor Chongzhen's sentence how many people were buried for him contained how much helplessness and importance to him, the current meaning, if he died, the Ming Dynasty would be almost the same, and how many lives would be ruined at that time.

So I can't die, Chang Yu raised his hand and touched his neck, it hurt, he was dizzy, and he lost too much blood.

Chang Yu is not fainting alone, Dolgon in the Qing army camp outside the city is also dizzy, but he is not injured, but dizzy, the Ming army attacked the camp at night, and did not hesitate to cause him great damage at the cost of 2,000 dead soldiers.

The fire in the camp was extinguished for nearly an hour, and a large number of tents, grain and grass and other baggage were burned, and many soldiers and horses and captured Ming civilians were burned, with a total of thousands of casualties.

"Rats, rats" Dolgon was angry and scolded the Ming army for not daring to fight openly, so he would engage in these sneaky tricks, and then roared angrily that Shang Kexi and others were incompetent and useless, and they could be attacked into the camp by them if they were prepared tomorrow morning, which was extremely useless.

Shang Kexi and other generals did not dare to speak.

"Spread the word Azig, Nikan is coming to besiege the city, this king wants to break through Beijing" Dolgon roared, and ordered the Ming army killed and captured to be beheaded, and picked up the city with poles, waiting for dawn to demonstrate to the city.

All the generals did not object, and they were indeed angry because of the sneak attack of the Ming army, and there were also fantasies that they had really broken the city and gained far more than rushing around to rob them, and they could even easily occupy the thousands of miles of the Ming Dynasty.

Thinking that it happened to be the time when the Gyeonggi army was empty, although there were reinforcements in the south, they didn't dare to approach, and it was a pity if they didn't fight at such a good time.

The spies of the Qing army sent a letter to Changping and Heping Valley overnight, urgently summoning reinforcements to besiege the city and do a big deal.

In Pinggu County, although it was late at night, the chief soldier Tang Tong did not sleep, but patrolled the city, not that he was not sleepy, but afraid! At present, among the generals of the Ming Dynasty, except for Wu Sangui, he is the one who has fought the most with the Qing army, and he knows that his combat power is strong and his methods are cruel.

A few days ago, he suddenly heard that the Qing army had entered the customs, and he was shocked by Chang Yu, and hurriedly led his troops from Jizhou to intercept them, and even the troops who were transferred at that time did not even arrive, after all, it was the territory under his jurisdiction that had an accident, how dare he slack off.

It's just that Tang Tong also knows psychologically that the little man he has at hand is just a gap between the teeth of the Qing army, and there are no more than 10,000 people under his command, and there are casualties in the strategy of leading 8,000 troops out of the pass to help the strategy, but at this time only about 6,000 are pulled, and although the combat power is harder than the inland troops, it is still slightly inferior to the cavalry of the Qing army.

But the duty had to be done, Tang Tong led the troops in a hurry, while sending someone to report to the imperial court, and quickly summoned Chang Yu back to King Jingqin, and if he was not there, no one in Jinggi could stop the Qing soldiers.

Tang Tong decided to fill the pit first, thinking that he had learned some tricks from the little eunuch outside the pass, even if he couldn't stop it, he could hide the cat with him, but the imagination was very beautiful, the reality was very cruel, and his men and horses had to report urgently when they arrived in Pinggu, and there were tens of thousands of Tartar soldiers in the west of Pinggu County.

I wipe, the tired servants and servants all the way can't beat it, where to hide and seek, Tang Tong realized at this time that even if he wants to learn the tricks of the little eunuch, he must have his brain, and in a panic, he quickly ordered a rapid march and hid in Pinggu County before the Nikan people arrived.

But Nikan was angry, and secretly regretted that he only cared about robbery all the way and did not send a team of men and horses to occupy the city first, and was blocked out of the city one step later, and the duck to the beak flew, how could Nikan stop, and he couldn't take it down if he didn't believe in a small broken city, so he ordered the siege of the city to shout and intimidate, surrender and not kill, otherwise the chickens and dogs would not be left after the city was broken.

The people in the city were panicked, but fortunately, Tang Tong had also seen a big scene, how could he be frightened by his words, knowing that it was just a plan to shake the morale of the army and lure him to surrender.

Seeing that the intimidation was ineffective, Nikan was angry and ordered the siege of the city, but there were few siege equipment, and although the city of Pinggu was small, there were large soldiers stationed there, and the long-term attack on Nikan had no plan, so he ordered a small army to besiege the city, and the rest plundered in all directions.

But even so, Tang Tong did not dare to be careless, the people in the city were panicked, he was worried that some soldiers or ordinary people could not withstand the intimidation and temptation to open the door at night and lower the clear, and there would be no place to bury the dead, so he did not hesitate to personally lead his own soldiers to inspect the city.

What's going on in the capital? Has the little overseer returned? I was trapped in this city, and it didn't take long to run out of ammunition and food, so what should I do? If the reinforcements don't come, will they kill people and eat meat like Xuezu Dashou? Tang Tong stood at the head of the city, looking at the Qing army camp outside the city and at the dark night in the south, with a sad look on his face.
