After the news that Zu Dacheng died in the battle of Zhending, Cao Wenzhao and Zhu Dadian were defeated and retreated to Hejian, and Li Zicheng's troops besieged Beijing, it caused a lot of shock among the senior generals of the Mojia Army.

Mo Li was far from expecting that Li Zicheng's gang would unexpectedly develop so quickly, pulling up hundreds of thousands of horses in just a few months, and even hitting the feet of the Son of Heaven.

It can be imagined that Chongzhen children's shoes are now in a hurry, and every inch is in chaos.

You must know that now Li Zicheng has hundreds of thousands of troops to surround the Beijing Division, and several generals who can fight in the Ming Dynasty, Cao Wenzhao, Zhu Dadian, Zu Dacheng and others died in battle, and those who retreated in defeat, and no one could stop Li Zicheng's troops.

This made Chongzhen not angry, he was not cured, but under this blow, his condition worsened, and he couldn't even go to the early dynasty.

Chongzhen has always been diligent in government, and in the past few years since he ascended the throne, this is the first time that he has not been in the early dynasty, which has further intensified the panic of the ministers of the DPRK and China.

Originally, the thieves besieged the Beijing division had already made the entire capital panic, and now the emperor could not govern the government as soon as possible, and the officials felt that the sky of the Ming Dynasty was about to fall, and many people were even secretly preparing to pack up and flee the capital.

The officials are still like this, and the ordinary people are even more panicked, and the scene of the Tartar soldiers besieging the Beijing division three years ago began to repeat itself, but now the soldiers and horses outside the city are not Tartars, but rebel thieves who were once the people of the Ming Dynasty.

The city is full of panicked people, but they can't get out because the capital is besieged, otherwise I'm afraid there won't be a few people left.

When the officials and people of the capital were panicking, Moli, thousands of miles away, also held a high-level meeting in Changsha. Because along with the news of Cao Wenzhao's defeat, there was also Chongzhen's order to order the soldiers and horses to rush to the aid of the Beijing Division.

Mo Li is still carrying the banner of the Ming Dynasty, and now the emperor of Jingshi is besieged by traitors, if Mo Li doesn't want to pull the flag and rebel now, then he has to obey the order to lead the army to the king.

But Huguang is thousands of miles away, and it is not easy to talk about the Beijing division. The road is long, and the march alone will take no idea how much time it will take. There is also food and grass, logistics supplies, etc., all of which need to be planned.

But how and where to march is still a question. Because Henan, Shanxi, Hebei and other places north of Huguang were entrenched by Li Zicheng's rebels, if you want to enter the king of Jingqin, then you have to fight step by step, and now it is in ancient times, and it is impossible for soldiers to be airdropped over.

And if this is fought step by step, not to mention whether they can defeat Li Zicheng's hundreds of thousands of troops, even if they can be defeated, it will not be a matter of time and a half. For an expedition, a complete plan must be made, including the raising of grain and grass, etc.

Moli has his own considerations. For him, this may be an opportunity.

An opportunity to change history forever.

Da Ming has been completely decayed, and Mo Li will no longer have any illusions about Chongzhen. If the Ming Dynasty was destroyed by Li Zicheng as in history, then Mo Li would let it be reborn in another way.

The Chinese nation will also march toward a new starting point.

And that's his ultimate goal.

Mo Li finally decided to gather soldiers and horses from all over Huguang and raise troops to attack Li Zicheng's rebels.

But how to fight is the key.

The whole army of the Mojia army went north, and it was impossible for Huguang as a base camp to be defenseless, and it was impossible for the rear to be unstable, otherwise how could they fight.

Therefore, Moli needed to eliminate Yuan Zongdi and Ma Shouying who were entrenched in Baoning, Shunqing, Hanzhong and Nanyang first, so that the Mojia army could rest assured that they could go north with all their strength and rush to the aid of Beijing.

Mo Li ordered Zhou Yuji to seize the time to encircle and suppress Ma Shouying. At the same time, he ordered Du Geng, who was stationed in Jingzhou, Su Hansheng, Zhang Yu and others in Changyang and Shizhou to be temporarily transferred to Zhou Yuji's tent, obey Zhou Yuji's unified command, and attack Ma Shouying.

In addition, Cao Bianjiao, who was stationed in Wuchang, accompanied by Ma Jinzhong, Cheng Qingzhu and other troops, went north from De'an and marched into Runing.

At the same time, in order to facilitate the command of the two armies to fight, Mo Li led Guan Feng, He Zhenbei, Xiao Yang and other generals to mobilize troops and horses to prepare to move to Xiangyang and attack towards Nanyang.

He Zhendong was left to lead 5,000 men and horses to guard Changsha, and Li Guo led 8,000 men and horses to garrison Wuchang to guard against Wang Ziyong and Zhang Xianzhong, who fled to Anhui, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang.

Here Mo Li dispatched troops in Huguang, preparing to exterminate Li Zicheng's soldiers and horses deployed in Henan and Shaanxi, and in the Forbidden City of Beijing, thousands of miles away, Chongzhen sighed and frowned on the hospital bed.

Li Zicheng conquered Taiyuan two months ago and established a regime in Taiyuan, proclaiming himself the king of Dashun and commanding the Dashun army.

Now Li Zicheng's Dashun army has surrounded the capital and stormed it for four days, and one artillery cannon is constantly bombarding the city, and the thick gunpowder smoke envelops the entire capital, and there is a great tendency for black clouds to overwhelm the city.

Chongzhen received a report that the soldiers of the three major battalions of the Beijing garrison began to attack the city two days after the Dashun army began to attack the city, because of the heavy casualties, many soldiers had already fled, withdrew from the city, and hid in the city without a trace. And in the city, there is already chaos, chickens and dogs jumping, and the scene of the end is coming.

At this time, it was not the elite Ming soldiers who desperately resisted at the head of the city, let alone the literati doctors who were impassioned and looked down on the world in the past. It is eunuchs, at least six or seven percent of the number.

Back then, Zhu Yuanzhang erected an iron card at the gate of the palace that eunuchs were not allowed to interfere in politics, and at this last moment, the Ming Imperial City relied on a group of eunuchs to make the final resistance.

This is the sorrow of Chongzhen and the sorrow of Daming.

Chongzhen has not thought of issuing an order to the king of soldiers and horses in the world, from Zhu Dadian, Zu Dacheng to Cao Wenzhao, as well as Liu Liangzuo, the deputy general of Jimen, and then to Moli, the governor of Huguang, Chongzhen has always hoped that the fierce generals and strong troops in various places can prevent Li Zicheng from attacking the Beijing division.

But he didn't expect Li Zicheng's exhibition to be so fast, and he arrived in the capital in just a few months, which made him complain.

What he didn't expect was that Zhu Dadian and others, who had high hopes for him, were not Li Zicheng's opponents, and they were defeated and died not long after, and they could only watch Li Zicheng's Dashun army attack all the way to the foot of the capital.

Half a month ago, Liu Liangzuo, the deputy general of Jimen, and Zuo Liangyu, the deputy general of Changping, led troops to Qinwang, but they were also defeated and fled, hiding in Tianjin and not daring to show up.

Now, Chongzhen can only pin his hopes on Mo Li, the governor of Huguang, hoping that this general, who has won all battles, can arrive as soon as possible to save the empire from danger.

He had already thought that as long as Mo Li could save the empire this time and make a great contribution, he would personally summon Mo Li and reward him heavily.

However, Huguang is too far away after all, not to mention the soldiers and horses, it will take a long time to transmit the news.

Will Moli be able to rush to the aid of Jingshi?
