The "Red Banner Army" stationed in Ningyuan and Jinzhou had to guard against Zu Dashou while defending Jiannu, which was already the consensus of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.

Because in addition to Zu Zerun, Zu Kefa, etc., who surrendered to Jiannu and served as tigers, there are also more brothers-in-law Wu Xiang's nephew Wu Sangui.

At this time, the emperor had already issued a secret decree to all armies, requiring the governor, governor, military preparation, and eunuchs to strictly guard against Zu Dabi, Zu Dacheng, Zu Kuan and other old generals of the Guanning army.

Chongzhen saw that the ministers all recommended Huang Han to lead the troops to resist Jiannu's entry into the Kou, and asked: "Ladies and gentlemen, the Marquis of Dongping is far away in Kuizhou Mansion, and at this time, I am afraid that it will be difficult to quench the thirst of the distant water when the decree is transferred to Beijing." ”

Xu Guangqi was already ready to resign and retire again, and go to Tiger's Den City to teach and educate people in the future, but who knew that Daming had a big deal again, so he had to choose to work for a while.

He came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, your own family knows your own affairs, and it is unknown whether the 'Red Flag Army' stationed in Ningyuan and Jinzhou can send some men and horses to aid Xuanda while ensuring that the defense line is safe, and this has to be decided by the Marquis of Dongping."

As the patriots of Dongping Hou Zhongjun know, His Majesty not only had to send a decree in time to order Dongping Hou to return to Beijing as soon as possible, but also asked him to urgently requisition and transfer Ningyuan, Jinzhou and Shanhaiguan garrisons to relieve the urgent need. ”

Zheng Guochang went out of the class and said: "The virtuous do not avoid relatives, now the situation in the Ming Dynasty is grim, the soldiers and horses of all roads are afraid of Jiannu or wait and see or retreat in the city to passively slack off, only the Marquis of Dongping can boost the morale of the army and turn the tide." ”

Shoufu Wen Tiren also agreed: "The 'Red Banner Army' is prestigious, as long as there is the expectation of the upcoming arrival of Dongping Hou, the front-line soldiers have hope in their hearts, even if they want to quench their thirst, they must recruit Dongping Hou's men and horses in Sichuan in time." ”

Hou Xun's head was as big as a bucket during this time, and it was impossible for the Ming Hubu Shangshu to have a good life under the financial crisis, and he was fed up with splints.

However, he had a particularly good impression of Huang Han, and the main reason was that the "Red Banner Army" demanded the least amount of money when they went out to fight, and the arrears of food would not cause the soldiers to mutiny.

Of course, he praised the recruitment of the "Red Flag Army", and at this time he went out and said: "Your Majesty, now that reinforcements from all walks of life are rushing to Shanxi one after another, and official documents asking for money and grain are piling up.

There are no generals and strong troops to become the mainstay, and the war drags on for a long time, and the court is difficult to continue. ”

Zhang Fengyi, who once again served as the secretary of the Ministry of War, had another big event, his heart was sad, lamenting that his luck was not good, and the vast majority of the big leaders of the rogue had been trapped by Chen Qiyu, and now as long as he could drive the country out of the customs as soon as possible, it would be the victory of the Ministry of War.

He was the most urgent court minister who wanted the Marquis of Dongping to solve his urgent needs, and immediately went out to second the proposal, and his two military squires and several Langzhong were strongly recommended.

The court discussion soon became one-sided, and the ministers of the Ming Dynasty, who had a complex partisanship, rarely had a high degree of unity, and they all strongly recommended the Marquis of Dongping to lead the invasion against Jiannu.

No way, Cao Wenzhao's uncle and nephew, who were the most capable of fighting the Liukou, were defeated against the Houjin army, and the blow to the civil officials and military generals of the imperial court was too great, and it seemed that the entire Ming Dynasty was able to fight against Jiannu and only Huang Han was left.

Originally, too many people had the intention of suppressing the development of the Huang and Han dynasties, but it was a pity that the "Red Flag Army" that relied on strength to speak was already an existence that could not be suppressed.

On 19 July, Huang Han, who was training troops in Kuizhou to guide the capital construction, could not help but laugh dumbly when he saw the emperor's personal decree to send him to King Qin, the capital of Beijing.

The emperor also asked Huang Han to use 600 li to expedite in time and find ways to transfer some men and horses from Ningyuan, Jinzhou, and Shanhaiguan to rescue the emergency.

What's wrong with the old Zhu family, most of his time in the past year and a half has been used to protect the Zhu family's vassal kings and county kings, and now the emperor urgently summoned himself to Beijing to guard the Beijing division, which is equivalent to protecting him.

Qin Liangyu, who was also in Kuizhou, also received the holy decree, and did not ask her to lead her troops out of Sichuan, but ordered the white pole soldiers to strictly guard against the resurgence of Shu thieves after the "Red Flag Army" led by the Marquis of Dongping left.

Qin Liangyu received the holy decree and immediately urged his son-in-law to go on the road, Huang Han knew that the Houjin army's raid this time would not be too long, and if he carried the heavy and infantry to the capital at a speed of fifty miles a day, it would probably take more than two months.

At that time, it was already the end of October, and the Houjin army, which was not allowed to come cheaper, had already slipped away at that time, and they would also leave the words "Ming officials are exempted from sending them to humiliate the Ming Dynasty." ”

This is not taken for granted, history records that seven years after Chongzhen, the Jin army plundered Xuanda for more than fifty years, that is, less than two months.

Huang Han was ready to work harder, and took the boat that left him and the infantry down the river to Yangzhou to change to a sea ship and rushed to Tiger's Den City to stand by, and then see if Jiannu would retreat and whether there was any need for the infantry to go up.

He concentrated on using cavalry, taking one man and three war horses, and striving to run at a speed of more than 200 miles a day.

The mobilization order to concentrate the cavalry on a rapid march was issued within a quarter of an hour of receiving the holy decree, and the eunuch who came to deliver the decree was a eunuch with family martial arts under Fang Zhenghua's hand.

This person is one of Fang Zhenghua's four henchmen with high force value, in his twenties, completely different from most eunuchs, who are tall and strong.

He followed the six hundred miles and ran all the way, and at this time he was almost exhausted, and there were very few eunuchs who could change horses and not change people, and gallop at a speed of five or six hundred miles a day for six or seven days in a row.

Fang Jingcheng was able to become a eunuch who was not only deliberately promoted by Fang Zhenghua, but also because he was physically strong and had good riding skills, and if he successfully completed the task this time, the future would definitely be bright in the future.

Seeing that Dongping Hou acted so decisively, he immediately thought that it was worth it for him to rush desperately, and knelt at Huang Han's feet and cried: "Dongping Hou, the emperor is so worried that he can't think about tea and dinner, Fang's husband is also anxious, and millions of people in Beijing are looking forward to Dongping Hou, woo woo ......"

Huang Han said righteously: "The matter of the food king's loyalty to the king, rest assured!" Benjue will lead the men and horses to gallop through the Beijing Division, and the father-in-law does not need to rush back immediately after a tiring journey, just accompany the infantry of the 'Red Banner Army' on the road. ”

Fang Jingcheng said: "Our family is very good, this tiredness can be endured, our family is willing to accompany Hou Ye into Beijing, and our family can also stand for the 'Red Flag Army' on the road, so that the state capital along the way can do a good job of logistics support." ”

The effect of having angels to deal with the state capital along the way will not be bad, and having the "Sifang Express" to assist in arranging food and lodging will greatly improve the efficiency of the army, Huang Han agreed to Fang Jingcheng's request.

Except for the part of the cavalry that had to be left behind, there were more than 2,800 horsemen galloping on the road, and all the good horses were called up for two horses per man, and there was also one horse of poor quality as a pack horse, carrying armor and supplies.
