When Emperor Chongzhen entered the city, he didn't care about the strange eyes of the people - the Ming Dynasty was even the first emperor in the history of the Central Plains to take his hair seriously and make it the same as a dog's gnaw, and now he can be regarded as an insight!

Emperor Chongzhen, who has always been very thick-skinned, or doesn't know what to do with his face, has long wanted to fool the army into cutting his hair short - what to do with such long hair, take care of trouble, and it is not hygienic.

Now it's okay, I have finally shortened my hair by taking advantage of the lofty excuse of not growing my hair from the Tartars, as long as I clean it up after I go back, I feel good when I think about it.

When entering the Xuanfu, Chongzhen paid special attention to the looks of the onlookers. The results made him very satisfied. The arrogant demeanor of the people of the country, which has never been seen in later generations, makes him feel that this is the look that the people of the Ming Dynasty should have - Lao Tzu was born noble, who can make me bow my head!

In the yamen of the Xuanfu, Emperor Chongzhen, who was in the top seat, also looked very indifferent. Not to mention Lin Dan, what is important is to gather the military hearts of tens of thousands of troops in Jingying and the New Army. As long as we have this batch of seeds, the rest of the matter will be much easier. Didn't the great man say that it is much more difficult to solve the problem of whether there is a problem first, from zero to one, than from one to hundred.

Chongzhen looked at Lu Xiangsheng and the others in front of him, and said lightly: "Go back and tell me to go down, rest for one night, and return to Beijing tomorrow." ”

Lu Xiangsheng objected: "Your Majesty's northern expedition has been full of ups and downs for more than a month, why don't you take a break in Xuanfu for a while and then return to Beijing?" ”

Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "What are you resting for?" I didn't have to rest when I returned to Beijing. After sending the ashes of these fallen soldiers to the Martyrs' Shrine, they will then go to Liaodong. ”

Chongzhen's plan had not been discussed with the British Duke Zhang Weixian and Qin Liangyu and others in advance, so after hearing Emperor Chongzhen's idea, Zhang Weixian objected: "Your Majesty can't!" ”

Qin Liangyu also objected: "Your Majesty must not conquer Liaodong again, it is better for the last general to lead the troops with the British Duke and General Liu, Your Majesty must not take such a risk again." ”

Liu Xingzuo was also very painful, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty returns to Beijing this time, and Beijing doesn't know what kind of quarrel it will become, let alone how much government affairs will be backlogged. ”

Chongzhen said: "It's not the day I go back to Beijing and leave." It will only take three or five days to deal with government affairs, and then hurry to Liaodong. I don't know what happened to Mao Wenlong now. ”

Zhang Weixian arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, at this time, it has been more than a month since Jiannu sent troops to Dongjiang, and I am afraid that it is time to hand over to Mao Wenlong." At the same time, Wang Zaijin of Shanhaiguan and the Xibe Department of Hu Guogong are contained, and Mao Wenlong's department should not be a big problem. ”

Chongzhen pondered for a while and said: "It doesn't mean much, don't talk about him, in short, Dongjiang must not be lost." ”

Others don't know the consequences of Dongjiang's loss, but Chongzhen doesn't know? As soon as the Dongjiang River was lost, North Korea would not be able to resist Jiannu, and it was inevitable that it would surrender at that time, even if it was a superficial surrender, at least Jiannu would have a stable rear. When the time comes, there will be a detour to Mongolia or something, and the days of the Ming Dynasty will not pass?

Zhang Weixian arched his hand again and said: "Your Majesty, it is better for the minister and General Liu to lead the troops forward, and then gather Zhao Shujiao and other troops in Shanhaiguan to besiege Shenyang together, and then force Jiannu to return to the division." ”

Chongzhen said: "What if Jiannu is determined to fight the Dongjiang River? Leave Shenyang to fight us, and first level the Dongjiang River. After all, Shenyang City has been operated by Jiannu for many years, and it can be regarded as a strong city, and it cannot be defeated in a day or two. ”

Zhang Weixian thought for a while, and then said: "Then give up the matter of attacking Shenyang and directly attack the Horqin Department." In fact, for Jiannu, the role of the Horqin Department is more important than that of Shenyang. ”

Chongzhen said curiously: "Let's talk about it." ”

Zhang Weixian said: "Your Majesty, the reason why Jiannu dominates Liaodong is that one is the barbaric physique raised in the bitter cold land of Liaodong, and the other is because you can continue to get war horses from the Horqin Department, and you can raise the Eight Banners cavalry with war. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Weixian gritted his teeth, and said hatefully: "There are also those bastards who are greedy for life and afraid of death and surrender to Jiannu, once they surrender, they will die for Jiannu, and they will fight much more ruthlessly than when they were in the army in the Ming Dynasty." In fact, the so-called Eight Banners of Jiannu are not to worry about at all, but this Han Eight Banners is the real bastard. ”

When Qin Liangyu heard this, he also bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, in the forty-fourth year of Wanli, his brother Qin Bangping and his brother Qin Minping once had a bloody battle with Jiannu in the Hunhe River, and the white pole soldiers killed more than 2,000 but killed thousands of slaves. It can be seen that Jiannu is nothing more than that. This time, Weichen can take the white pole soldiers to Liaodong and teach Jiannu a lesson. ”

Chongzhen is a little white in history, and he knows that the white pole soldiers used to be a group of cattle, and the reputation of the Qi family army is the same as the reputation of the Jiannu is terrifying, but he really doesn't know that more than 2,000 white pole soldiers can kill thousands of eight horsemen, after all, later generations have legends that the eight banners are less than 10,000, and they are invincible.

After sighing secretly, Chongzhen said: "Don't mention this first, go back to the capital first." After arriving in the capital, we will discuss it again. ”

In fact, the one who most hoped that the Ming army would be defeated was precisely the Gonggong princes in the capital. Except for Wen Tiren and Shi Fenglai, who were appointed as the assistant to the superintendent of the country, and the eunuchs, the rest of the courtiers are each playing their own small calculations, and they can't wait for the emperor to defeat in the Xuanfu - what kind of thing, are you still not satisfied with these righteous gentlemen assisting the court? The emperor does not rule by hanging the arch, but personally leads the troops to the battle, what do you want to do?

Raise the status of the warriors? So what about us, the civil servants? Do you want to talk about the old rules of being noble and cheap? And you want those rude warriors to trample on our heads? I can't bear it! When your army is defeated, you will know that these martial artists are unreliable, and in the end, you have to rely on us to rule the country with righteous men and gentlemen! For a while, the undercurrent of the seemingly calm capital was turbulent in private.

However, it turns out that people can't pretend to be forced, and pretend to be forced to be struck by lightning. Just when the courtiers continued to make small moves in private, Emperor Chongzhen invisibly slapped the big guy's face, making the big guy's face hot.

"Your Majesty is on the line! 100,000! Daming Wansheng! ”

The Hongling messenger, who deliberately did not clean up properly, galloped into Beijing, and the people of the knowledgeable Imperial City got out of the way. If you accidentally let the Red Feather Messenger step on it, you will die in vain, and it will be even more fucked up if you don't make another charge of delaying the military plane.

However, what are these dozen or so guys running wild in the capital shouting? Great victory? 100,000? I have a big, Emperor Chongzhen is awesome, Emperor Wuzong himself has levied, but I heard that he killed two, look at the current Chongzhen Emperor, directly killed 100,000, this is good, bring energy!

galloped all the way, that is, when he came to the Forbidden City, he also shouted all the way to victory, without the slightest pause. The guards guarding the palace gate hurriedly opened the city gate, and headed for the cabinet with the dozen or so red feather messengers.

After Wen Tiren and Shi Fenglai got the news of this great victory, Wen Tiren rubbed his eyes, repeatedly confirmed that he had not read the battle report wrongly, and handed it to Shi Fenglai, saying, "Brother Cunmei, why don't you go together to ask to see the queen mother?" The news of such a great victory does not dare to delay. ”

Emperor Chongzhen's good news entered Beijing, and some people were mourned - most of the civil officials were as disgusting as eating flies; Some people are ecstatic - this is the hope of those noble groups and generals who have finally seen their resurgence again; Some people even pinched the good news and shouted that the ancestors blessed - this is Queen Zhou.
