In the third year of the Later Jin Tiancong, that is, on October 20 of the second year of the Ming Dynasty, the Emperor Taiji of the Later Jin Khan led the army to march.

On the 24th, the Houjin army arrived at the Laoha River, and Huang Taiji summoned the ministers of Zhubeile to arrange the strategy of using troops for Fa Ming.

"Ji'erharang, Yue Tuo."

"The minister is here."

"Order the two of you to lead the soldiers and horses of the two banners on the left flank and the soldiers and horses of the Mongolian right flank Zhubeile to attack Daankou on a certain day, and meet with the soldiers and horses of the left flank in Zunhua City."

"Chenzier Harang (Yue Tuo), Commander."

"Abatai, Azig."

"The Minister"

"Order the two of you to lead the soldiers and horses of the two banners on the left wing and the Mongolian Zhubeile soldiers and horses on the left flank to attack Longjing Pass on a certain day, and meet with the soldiers and horses on the right flank in Zunhua City."

"Minister, Abatai (Azig), Commander."

"I will join the Great Belle (referring to the good), the Three Beylers (referring to Mang Gurtai), and the Beylers to carry their own army to attack Hongshankou City, and they will also join you and others in Zunhua City. Fight to the death, and don't live up to my hopes. ”

The ministers said yes, and this was the end of the meeting.

However, it shows that since the Houjin uprising, the dynasty has collected the world's elite soldiers, and the sophisticated equipment has been used to defend Liaodong, and most of the wealth from the four seas has been filled into the northeast, which has led to the laxity of the defense of the other eight towns in the Ming Dynasty, and most of the soldiers are second-line troops, most of the equipment is rotten, and it is the norm for military salaries to be owed.

The defensive effect corresponding to this kind of tofu-brain-level defense line is that the Houjin army will fight the Ming army in front of it, just like the United States fighting Iraq, like a flood rushing into sand, and the momentum is like a bamboo.

The Houjin Sanlu army entered the territory of the Ming Dynasty from Xifengkou, and Liu Ce, the governor of Jiliao, heard that the Houjin army was coming, and immediately made a decision and fled immediately, resulting in the Ming army being leaderless and fighting for itself.

On the 26th, the left wing army of Houjin attacked Longjing Pass in the early morning, easily broke through this pass, drove straight in, and killed the Ming army along the road, the Ming reinforcements were defeated, Yi Ai, the deputy general of the Ming Han Erzhuang, and Wang Zunchen, the general of Hongshankou, were all beheaded, and all their troops were annihilated.

The mobile force of the Ming army was wiped out, even if the city was still there, no one could defend it, so the Ming Dynasty Hanerzhuang and Panjiakou defended the city and the Ming army surrendered.

On the 27th, Huang Taiji personally commanded the army into the border and conquered Hongshankou City.

On the 30th, Huang Taiji led his troops into the territory of Zunhua, and sent 100 soldiers to Zunhua City to station in Zunhua City to listen to the reality of the Ming army.

At the same time, the soldiers and horses of the right wing of the Houjin were under the leadership of Jierharang and Yue Tuo, breaking the border from Da'ankou and advancing all the way, seeing that all the Ming troops encountered along the way were defeated, and the three cities of Malan Camp, Malankou and Da'ankou were all surrendered.

On the 28th, the soldiers and horses of the right wing of Houjin first arrived at Shimen, and then joined the Huang Taiji Central Army and the Left Wing Army under the city of Zunhua.

Hearing that the Jin army bypassed the Ningjin defense line and attacked the region directly, the superintendent Yuan Chonghuan was in a hurry, and he boasted about Haikou in front of the emperor, saying that it was "five years of Pingliao".

As a result, five years have not arrived, whether Jiannu can be pacified, the emperor does not know, as far as the current posture is concerned, Jiannu seems to have a tendency to pacify the Ming Dynasty.

If the Houjin army really appeared in the capital, needless to say, he Yuan Chonghuan would definitely not be able to escape the crime of bullying the king.

Therefore, Yuan Chonghuan immediately sent Zhao Shuojing to lead the troops to block the Houjin army, asking him to block the Houjin army no matter what, so as not to run to harass the emperor, and as soon as the emperor became angry, then their Liaodong Town would definitely be unlucky.

Later, he heard that the Houjin army was almost dispatched, so he simply personally led the deputy commander-in-chief Zhang Hongmo, the staff general Zhang Cunren, and guerrilla Yu Wenshou, Zhang Waijia, Cao Wenzhao, etc. into the pass, as a flank, to take care of Zhao Shujing's troops.

The next day, Yuan Chonghuan transferred the generals Zheng Yilin and Wang Chengyin, and the guerrilla Liu Yingguo and the general soldier Zu Dashou to respond to Zhao Shujing.

Zhao Shujing, the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, received the order to come to the rescue, and immediately ordered 4,000 elite soldiers to go in the direction of the besieged Zunhua City.

On November 4, Zhao led 4,000 elite soldiers and strong generals of Jing's department to Zunhua City, and happened to meet the main force of the Houjin Army, and a great battle suddenly began.

Originally, the ability of the Ming army in Liaodong to fight in the field was slightly inferior to that of the Later Jin army, and now the number of the Later Jin army was more than that of the Ming army, so the result of this battle was the annihilation of the entire army of Zhao Shujing.

Wang Yuanya, the governor of Jizhou, saw that all the reinforcements were annihilated and did not surrender, he led his troops to defend Zunhua City, but was finally outnumbered and was attacked into the city by Houjin. Wang Yuanya hanged herself to death.

After Zunhua City was captured, there was no danger to the east of the Beijing Division, and the Jin army drove straight in, and the Ming army was in arrears of wages for many years along the way, and the resistance was very weak.

Later, the Jin army went down to Jizhou, crossed the three rivers, plundered Shunyi, broke Tongzhou, and was invincible. On the 20th, the Jiannu army appeared near the Beijing Division, the Beijing Division was shaken, Chongzhen was shocked, and urgently ordered the military department to recruit the world's soldiers Qin Wang.

For a time, a steady stream of messengers set off from Beijing and headed in all directions.

*********************************************************************

"Report ........," a messenger hurriedly rushed to Zhang Mengjing, the governor of Yansui, and before he could breathe, he said loudly: "Military gate, there are police in Beijing, and the slave chief Huang Taiji (that is, Huang Taiji) led the Jiannu army to Beijing, and the Beijing division was surrounded, and the military department specially ordered the king of soldiers and horses in the world." ”

"The Jiannu soldiers besieged the Beijing Division!? Is this true? Zhang Mengjing was shocked and asked again.

"There is no doubt that the little ones dare to talk nonsense. This is a report from the Ministry of War, please check it out at the military gate. With that, the messenger took the document with both hands.

Zhang Mengjing took the official document, glanced at ten lines, looked at it hurriedly, and said to the messenger; "I see, you go down first. People come, hurry up and invite Lord Wu, the chief military officer. ”

"Yes." The herald and one of the attendants each agreed.

Not long after, Wu Zimian was summoned.

"Junmen, I don't know what to call for a humble post here?" Wu Zimian was hurriedly urged by the messenger, expecting that it must be a big event, and as soon as he sat down, he asked.

"Lord Wu, it is indeed important to urgently recruit you here. This hospital received a report from the military department, saying that the slave chief Huang Taiji led a large army to besiege the Beijing division, and the emperor specially ordered the soldiers and horses of the world to be the king. Originally, the emperor was afraid of the complicated situation in the Yansui border area, there were thieves in the rebellion, and there were northern captives outside, so he did not let this court lead troops into the defense of the Beijing Division, but this court still has to go, the emperor is the foundation of the country, and there is no room for loss, so I hereby order you to quickly convene this town to use soldiers and horses, and go to the king of Beijing with this court, you should work hard, if you are not effective, Yuan Chonghuan can kill Mao Wenlong, how can this hospital not kill you! "Zhang Menghua has always been generous to his subordinates, but today he was provoked by the danger encountered by the emperor, and he was quite stern between words.

Wu Zimian heard the news of Jiannu Kouluo's Beijing Division, he was startled at first, and then said: "The military gate, the Beijing division is besieged, and we should be guarded, but now the people are swarming, and the police are constantly being sent from all over the country, and our army has entered the Beijing Division, how to deal with the people's rebellion?" ”

"The thieves are just begging for the hungry, and the rabble is not to be worried." Zhang Mengjing does not think that the thieves are a big problem, but does not think that the exhaustion of the Yansui army will cause any irreparable losses.

"Junmen, I Yansui soldiers have not received their salaries for a long time, and now I am urging them to go on the expedition, I am afraid that the command will not move." That is, he must call the soldiers to work for the emperor, and pay the salary first.

Zhang Mengjing was very unhappy when he heard this, he originally wanted to say something like "the world receives the favor of the country, and does not want to repay the service", but considering the cultural skills of these Qiu Ba, he was afraid that they would not be able to understand, so he had to stop, held back for a while, and then said quietly: "There is still a treasury silver intercepted in the treasury, first allocate 20,000 taels, and send it to the soldiers, and when the time comes, when it comes to the Beijing Division, it will naturally be sent to the grain and salary." ”

"That being the case, the lowly will urge his soldiers and generals to pick up the dropouts. I just don't know how many days the military gate has given the humble post to prepare? Wu Zimian asked.

"Three days, the military situation is like fire, you wait for three days to meet here, if anyone dares to disobey, this court will not be spared." Zhang Mengjing cut the railway.

"Yes, the lowly position is recorded." Wu Zimian took the order and left.

When Wu Zimian returned to his own mansion, he immediately sent a messenger to send a messenger to send the information that the Beijing division was besieged, the Jiannu was raging, and the Yansui soldiers had to enter the defense of the Beijing division to all the prefectures, counties, and military forts in Yansui Town, and ordered the generals to lead their headquarters to meet in Yulin within three days.

At the same time, Zhenbeibao pinched the head office and Liu Renyu to count his fingers, and felt that in addition to the time that the messenger was delayed on the road, the news of Jiannu's entry into the Koujing division should also arrive, so he waited left and right, and finally waited for the messenger.

"Report ......., the slave chief Huang Taiji led the army into the Koujing Division, the Beijing Division was besieged, the emperor ordered the soldiers of the world to be the king of Qin, and the chief military officer of Yansui, Wu Dashuai, specially ordered the Yansui soldiers to meet in Yulin within three days, and those who did not arrive within the time limit will be engaged in military law." Under the guidance of Sergeant Zhenbeibao, the messenger went straight to the headquarters and informed Liu Renyu of the military order sent by Wu Zimian.

"I'm tired, go and reply to Lord Sun, I'll pack up and stop, and I'll start tomorrow and meet you in Jingbian Fort City. People come, reward. Liu Renyu said.

"Thank you for the little one, and the little one will definitely bring you."

"Well, you go down first."

"Yes."

"Renjie, hurry up and call your Uncle Ma, Uncle Li, Uncle Yang, Uncle Zhang, and Uncle He, and say that I want to have a meeting."

"Yes. Big brother, I'll go now. ”
