Three days later, under the auspices of the Ministry of Rites, Zhu Qiyu, the king of servants, hurriedly ascended the throne as an enemy, that is, Emperor Jingtai, and took the next year as the first year of Jingtai.

At the same time, the imperial court did not abolish the orthodox emperor, but respected the orthodox emperor as the emperor.

Emperor Jingtai's enthronement ceremony was so simple that even the people in Beijing did not notice it, but a celebration was held in the Forbidden City.

After that, Emperor Jingtai hurriedly convened the first court meeting after his accession to the throne, ready to discuss how to resist the Warat army.

At the court meeting, Yu Qian advocated a decisive battle with the Warat army, and the civil and military ministers in the court also echoed it.

At this time, Emperor Jingtai also knew that Yu Qian was the only cadre he could rely on, so even if he issued an order, Yu Qian was promoted from the right attendant of the military department to the secretary of the military department, and was fully responsible for resisting the Wara army.

At the same time, the 200,000 Qinwang troops around Beijing were all under the Ministry of War to coordinate the deployment.

Yu Qian immediately received the order, and ambitiously told his plan to resist the Warat army.

However, the ministers above the main hall did not have the heart to listen to any strategies to defend against the enemy.

Originally, the civilian clique wanted to use the hands of the Warat army to eliminate the Wuxun clique and the Xungui clique, so that the civilian-official clique could completely control the government and seize military power.

But people are not as good as heaven, and these scheming civil officials did not expect that the battle of Tumubao would be so badly defeated, and the Ming Dynasty was even on the verge of extinction!

Moreover, Yu Qian jumped to the secretary of the military department and controlled the military power of the army, which is what the civilian clique does not want to see, although Yu Qian is also a civilian official, but he has always stood on the side of the Wuxun group, and he is not of the same mind as the civilian clique.

However, in the face of Emperor Jingtai's appointment, the courtiers did not speak out against it, because everyone also understood that the most important thing at this time was to repel the Wara army, and if the Ming Dynasty was gone, everyone would have no authority to fight for.

As a result, everyone temporarily acquiesced to Emperor Jingtai's appointment, and Yu Qian pushed to the front of the stage to resist the invasion of the Tartars.

At the same time, all kinds of news in the past few days were also sent to Liu Juntao by the Investigation Department.

As the saying goes: there are no two days in the sky, and there are no two masters in the country!

Looking at the news of Emperor Jingtai's accession to the throne, Liu Juntao couldn't help but worry, although it was also expedient to support Zhu Qizhen as emperor, but this move also laid the root of some chaos in the future!

"What is the Emperor? It's all a trick to deceive yourself! When the orthodox emperor returns to Beijing, there will be two emperors in the Forbidden City, and then those ministers above the court will be completely split into two camps, and fight to the death again, this is a bloody killing place than the battlefield! ”

Liu Juntao secretly said in his heart, such a situation made Liu Juntao feel a little out of control, in Liu Juntao's heart, politics ~ governance ~ struggle is far more terrifying than the fight of real knives and guns, this is eating people without spitting out bones!

Therefore, Liu Juntao is also the director of the Investigation Department, Liu Zi'an, and the director of the Praise Painting Department, Zhang Yuqing.

With Emperor Jingtai's ascension to the throne, the situation has become turbulent, and as long as the Warat army is repulsed, the imperial court will definitely fall into turmoil.

Liu Juntao said to the two worriedly: "From today onwards, the Investigation Department and the Praise Painting Department must pay close attention to the changes in the court situation!" After repelling the Warat army, the Investigation Department and the Zanhua Department will shift their focus to the court, and I will know about any major changes and matters in the court in the shortest possible time! ”

After listening to Liu Juntao's words, Liu Zi'an and Zhang Yuqing were shocked in their hearts, and the two of them instantly realized that huge changes were about to take place in the DPRK and China, and it could even be said that it was turbulent.

Liu Zi'an pondered for a while and said, "Does the general think that after this battle, the Emperor Taishang will be able to return to the capital?" ”

Zhang Yuqing, who was on the side, was shocked when he heard this, and said; "Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, the Emperor Taishang is trapped in the Wara army, how can he have the opportunity to return to the capital!"

Liu Juntao sighed and said; "The world is impermanent! If I win this battle, there is a chance that this will happen. If I were the first, I would definitely send the Emperor Taishang back, then there would be two emperors in the Ming Dynasty, and sooner or later there would be chaos, which would be very beneficial to Wara! ”

Liu Juntao's words suddenly made Liu Zi'an and Zhang Yuqing stunned, and the two of them thought about it carefully, and they would do such a thing if they were themselves.

As a result, both of them frowned, and they were ready to immediately mobilize the capable officers of the Investigation Department and the Zanhua Department to vigorously develop the hidden piles in the court.

A few days later, the news of the fall of Juyong Pass came, and the capital fell into fear again.

At the same time, he also played the banner of sending the orthodox emperor back to Beijing, so that the Ming army along the way gave up resistance and opened the gates of the cities and fortresses along the way, so that the Wara army could reach the city of Beijing as soon as possible.

In this regard, the entire imperial court was in a panic, especially Emperor Jingtai, who had just ascended the throne, was even more anxious, and issued seven holy decrees to Yu Qian, the secretary of the military department, within one day, ordering the immediate mobilization of soldiers and horses to meet the Wara army.

At this time, Yu Qian was also anxious, and on the one hand, in the name of the Ministry of War, he strictly ordered the soldiers along the way from Juyong Pass to the capital to guard the city and block the attack of the Wara army layer by layer.

At the same time, Yu Qian hurriedly issued a mobilization order to the 200,000 Ming troops stationed around the city of Beijing, preparing to reorganize their troops and horses to meet the Wara army.

It is said that the orthodox emperor who was held hostage by the Wara army was also anxious, and the king of Saikan had already told the orthodox emperor the banner of "sending the emperor back to Beijing", and it was precisely because of this that the orthodox emperor could not sleep well.

Moreover, the orthodox emperor also learned that the Great Khan of Warat had withdrawn from Liaodong more than ten days ago, and was ready to join the army of Yexiansuo.

If you also succeed in joining forces with Tokhtar Buhua first, then Beijing City will face the siege of 300,000 Vara Iron Cavalry, and the Ming Dynasty will face the danger of losing the country!

"I knew today, but I regretted not at the beginning!"

The orthodox emperor wailed, but to no avail.

At this time, he also gave an order first, and did not directly kill Beijing City, but learned that Wara Khan had led the army to arrive, and led the army back to the area of Juyong Pass, obviously wanting to converge with Totokhunhua first, and then attack Beijing City.

After all, Beijing is the capital of the Ming Dynasty, not only the city is strong, but also I heard that the army of King Qin from all over the Ming Dynasty has arrived, and it will inevitably be a fierce battle at that time.

There is no certainty of victory in his heart, even if he controls the orthodox emperor, he is not completely sure that he can capture Beijing City, so it is better to converge and get rid of it first.

However, after he first led the army back to Juyong Pass, he was not idle, but sent soldiers and horses to capture the city, and did not forget to let the king of Saikan accompany the orthodox emperor all the way.

He also planned to let the Varat army show the orthodox emperor every time they arrived in a city, inspect in front of the two armies, and then order the Ming army defending the city to open the city and surrender.

However, Yexian's smug calculations were in vain, and when the Warat army arrived at the Bauhinia Pass, a group of Warat soldiers surrounded the Orthodox Emperor to patrol outside the pass.

But just when the Warat army was beaming with pride, the orthodox emperor suddenly pushed away the Warat soldiers in front of him, and then shouted at the Ming soldiers above the gate city one hundred and ten steps away: "I am the Ming Emperor!" I order you to defend the city and kill me! Kill me! ”

This scene happened very suddenly, the soldiers of the Ming army on the city were stunned, and even the tens of thousands of Vara iron horsemen were silent, no one thought that the orthodox emperor would come to such a hand and shoot the Ming army directly to kill himself!

The king of Saikan was so frightened that his face turned pale at this time, if the orthodox emperor died here, not only would Wara lose a trump card, but also make the Ming Dynasty hate the same enemy, and the morale of the Ming army would be greatly boosted, and then this battle would be a big defeat!

"What are you still doing! Bring Emperor Ming back! ”

The king of the race shouted hoarsely, and suddenly a group of dozens of Warat iron horsemen rushed out, tied the orthodox emperor to his horse, and hunched back.

The orthodox emperor who was tied to the war horse still shouted and cursed, shouting loudly to let the defenders of Bauhinia Pass shoot him, but in the blink of an eye, the orthodox emperor was brought back to the Warat army.
