Capital.

It didn't take long for the news that the orthodox emperor was defeated by Tumubao and that he had been captured by the Wara army spread, and the whole country was in an uproar for a while, and the government and the opposition were shaken.

At this time, the whole capital fell into extreme chaos, and a large number of ruffians and bullies began to appear in the city to take advantage of the chaos, and many people were subjected to the seedlings, so that the people in the city closed their doors and did not dare to go to the streets, or fled with their families and left the capital, and the whole city was alive and well a picture of the end times.

In the first battle of Tumubao, half of the 500,000 Ming troops were wounded, one-third of the dead, tens of thousands of horses were captured, and the Gyeonggi garrison was wiped out!

At the same time, hundreds of civil and military officials who accompanied the army were killed or wounded, 200,000 horses were lost, and countless losses were lost in clothing, armor, equipment, and baggage.

This defeat is a fiasco that the dynasty has never had since the founding of the country, and even many officials in the DPRK and China are lamenting: the defeat of Tumubao has lost the foundation of the dynasty!

Among the ministers who died in the Tumubao Incident, Taishi British Gong Zhang Fu, Taining Hou Chen Ying, Governor Jingyuan of the Horse Du, Pingxiang Bo Chen Huai, Xiangcheng Bo Li Zhen, Sui Anbo Chen Xun, Xiuwu Bo Shen Rong, Governor Liang Cheng, Wang Gui, Hubu Shangshu Wang Zuo, Military Department Shangshu Kuang Ye, Officials Left Attendant Lang and Hanlin Academy Bachelor Cao Nai, Criminal Department Right Attendant Lang Ding Xuan, Ministry of Industry Right Attendant Lang Zhu Yonghe, Metropolitan Inspection Yuan Right Deputy Du Yushi Deng Li, Hanlin Academy Attendant Bachelor Zhang Yi, Tongzheng Zuo Tongzheng Gong Quanan, Taichang Temple Shaoqing Huang Yangzheng, Dai Qingzu, Wang Yiju, Taifu Temple Shaoqing Liu Rong, Shangbao Shaoqing Ling Zhu, Bao Liangzuo, Yao Miao, Bao Hui, Zhongshu Sheren Yu Gong, Pan Cheng, Qian Yu, Supervisor Yushi Zhang Hong, Huang Shang, Wei Zhen, Xia Cheng, Shen You, Yin Hong, Tong Cunde, Sun Qing, Lin Xiangfeng, Lang Zhong Qi Wang, Feng Xueming, Yuan Wailang Wang Jian, Cheng Siwen, Cheng Shi, Lu Duan, Director Yu Jian, Zhang Tang, Zheng Xuan, Dali Temple Deputy Ma Yu, pedestrian Si Zheng Yin Chang, pedestrian Luo Ruyong, Qin Tianjian Xia Guanzheng Liu Xin, Xu Ban Li Gong, Shi Yu and other 52 people died in the melee.

The rest of the dozens of people were captured by Warat, and along with the tens of thousands of captured Ming army soldiers, they were killed by the Warat army!

It can be said that the Ming Wuxun Group and the Xungui Group suffered a catastrophe at the same time, not only the ministers of these two groups who were officials in the court suffered heavy casualties, but also the generals and assistants in the 500,000 army, the vast majority of them were born in these two groups, and they were also lost in World War I!

All of a sudden, many ministers of the Chinese official group in the capital celebrated with their crowns, and even drank to celebrate, which seemed out of place compared with the defeat of the national dynasty.

At the same time, after this defeat, the court has been completely chaotic, so many ministers died at the same time, not to mention anything else, but the normal operation of the court can no longer be maintained, the six departments, the three law divisions, and the twenty-four yamen have all been in poor operation, and even some officials are worried that the Wara army will come to the capital, so they directly abandon the official and flee!

With such a chaotic situation, the ministers of the DPRK and China began to urgently discuss and prepare for the aftermath, and unsurprisingly, the courtiers quarreled again.

This time, the key point of the courtiers' quarrel was whether to negotiate peace.

However, this controversy did not last long, after all, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it has been adhering to the ancestral precept of not being friendly and not being a minister.

The proposal of a small number of courtiers to exchange peace for the orthodox emperor was quickly rejected by the vast majority of the courtiers, and most of the ministers believed that even if they gave up the orthodox emperor and set up another emperor, they would never negotiate peace with the Tartars!

Just when there was a lot of discussion in the DPRK and China, and there was still no conclusion, Yu Qian, the right attendant of the military department, couldn't sit still.

In the first battle of Tumubao, the 500,000 Ming army collapsed, although about 100,000 rout soldiers fled back one after another, and are being rectified in Xuanfu Town, Datong Town, and even the western prefectures and counties of Gyeonggi, but these soldiers and horses can no longer go to the battlefield, and these soldiers have been frightened by the Wara Iron Cavalry!

As a result, Yu Qian could only rely on several large armies from all over the country who went north to enter Beijing, and relied on the hundreds of thousands of troops gathered around the capital at this time to rebuild the defense system of the capital.

At this time, Yu Qian had already ordered martial law in the whole city, and all soldiers and civilians were not allowed to enter and exit, and at the same time mobilized the soldiers and horses of the five cities to calm the turmoil on the streets.

A few days later, the momentum of unrest inside and outside the capital was finally contained, and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses captured hundreds of ruffians and bullies in three days, not counting the hundreds of bullies who were killed in the streets.

At the same time, because the capital has been under martial law, all the city gates have been closed, so tens of thousands of people have gathered outside the capital in a blink of an eye, and these people want to take refuge in the city, and the number is still increasing.

In this regard, Yu Qian immediately mobilized all the soldiers and horses stationed outside the city, and moved all the gathered people to Pinggu, Shunyi, Yanqing, Huailaizhou, Miyun and other places around the capital, and ordered the garrisons everywhere not to let the local people flee.

In addition, Yu Qian also ordered the Beizhen Fusi to immediately make an inventory in the capital, and also guarded all the Mongolian merchants and people to prevent Warat from stealing the city gate.

After Yu Qian's efforts, the tide of people gathered outside the capital dispersed, eliminating an imminent disaster.

Liu Juntao saw all these things in his eyes, and he also admired Qian very much in his heart.

"This lord is really a practical person, just in terms of the skill of doing things, few ministers in the court can compare!"

Bai Yuxing, Tao Jixin and others also nodded frequently when they heard this.

At the same time, Yu Qian continued to inspect the various armies that came to help, and it was obvious that he had already begun to reorganize his armaments.

Seeing this, Liu Juntao was also gearing up, ready to obey Yu Qian's dispatch and do a big job in the capital.

Zhang Xiaojun, Chen Ziping, Gao Ran, Zhou Zongsheng, Sun Xu and others are also eager to try, everyone wants to be able to ride the Wara Iron Cavalry for a while, and at the same time, they want to defeat the Wara army to wash away the shame of the defeat of the Tumu Fort!

But what Liu Juntao and others never expected was that Yu Qian's action to rectify the armies from all walks of life had not yet begun, and it was stopped by the imperial court!

Liu Juntao's face was incredulous when he heard the news, and he hurriedly summoned Zhang Yuqing, the director of the Zanhua Department, and Liu Zi'an, the head of the Investigation Department, who went out with the army to discuss.

Both of them agreed that at this time, the DPRK and China must not have reached a unified opinion, and the DPRK and China must be debating how to deal with the upcoming Warat army.

Therefore, Liu Juntao ordered Liu Zian to use all means to find out what the current situation in the DPRK and China is.

At the same time, Liu Juntao also began to think about how he would deal with such a situation if the Wara army was killed under the city of Jingshi and the imperial court had not yet unified its opinion in time.

Although Liu Juntao knew that the Ming Dynasty won the battle to defend Beijing in history, and it was won very simply, the situation at this time was a little different from that in history, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no deviation in the process!

Therefore, Liu Juntao can only be extremely careful and be fully prepared to deal with it.

Liu Juntao summoned the battalion commanders to the Chinese army's big tent to discuss matters, and Zhang Xiaojun, Chen Ziping, Gao Ran, Zhou Zongsheng, Sun Xu and others rushed one after another.

After seeing that everyone had arrived, Liu Juntao ordered everyone to strictly guard the camp and restrain the soldiers of each battalion, and no one was allowed to enter and leave the camp at will without his own orders.

At the same time, Liu Juntao hesitated for a moment, and then continued: "In addition, I hope you will keep in mind that our army came to garrison Gyeonggi on the order of the Ministry of War, so our army only obeys the orders of Yu Qian, the right attendant of the Ministry of War, and the rest of the people will not obey the orders of our army no matter how big their official positions are!" ”

When everyone listened to Liu Juntao's words, they were all shocked.

Liu Juntao's order has been made clear, at this time, the parties in the DPRK and China have already quarreled, it is difficult to guarantee that no one will target several large armies around the capital, and even find a way to command various departments to seize military power, so Liu Juntao will prevent such an order in case it is issued.

And Liu Juntao's order has also made its position clear, that is, to keep a distance from the civilian forces in the DPRK!
