At the end of November of the twelfth year of Chongzhen, the decisive battle of Pingliao ended for nearly half a month.

The "Red Banner Army" recovered the cities of Shenyangwei, Haizhouwei, Gaizhouwei, Fuzhouwei, Tielingwei, Liaohaiwei, Liaoyang, Fushun, etc., beheading more than 100,000 people, and the Qing army only had less than 20,000 horses and horses slipping through the net to report to the Beijing division.

It was too unexpected, the news of the victory came too quickly and too suddenly, and the anti-awaited emperor and the Manchu civil and military were ecstatic.

"Shenyang Victory", "King Han" led the "Red Banner Army" to capture the Manchu puppet capital, after the news of killing more than 100,000 Qing troops spread, the whole capital was boiling, for a time the sound of gongs and drums and firecrackers was more lively than the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

"'Han King' Wansheng!" The Red Banner Army wins! The shouts rose into the sky.

There were no less than 300,000 soldiers and civilians who wore New Year's clothes and took the initiative to march on the streets, and the procession of dragon dances, lion dances, and stilts was wave after wave, busy with the brocade guards and soldiers of the five cities to maintain order.

A few days later, in the early court, Chongzhen, who was in a good mood, encountered a problem.

Zheng Guochang, a cabinet minister, presented a bloody battle against the Qing army in the north of Shenyang late at night on November 15, and defeated the Manchu and Mongolian cavalry of 50,000 or 60,000 and beheaded more than 20,000 in one fell swoop.

He asked to lead the civil and military generals from Liaodong and the cavalry of 2,000 cavalry who fought in the north of Shenyang to fight on Chang'an Street and accept the reward.

The reason is very good, these two thousand cavalry are the heroes of the great destruction of Jiannu, each of them has at least three levels of beheading skills, and they are all heroes who kill the enemy for the country.

Today is the Great Dynasty Meeting, and there are as many as several hundred civil and military officials in the previous dynasty.

After hearing Zheng Ge's recital, eighty percent of the civil and military generals came out to second, talking about the merits of the heroes who deserved to be honored, so that the soldiers and civilians of the Beijing division could see the heroes fighting horses and parade in the streets, which was conducive to boosting morale and calming the people's hearts.

Chongzhen had no choice but to say that three days later it was the auspicious day of the zodiac, when he led hundreds of civil and military officials to accept prisoners at Chengtianmen and inspect the meritorious officers and soldiers of the "Red Banner Army".

The Manchu and pseudo-Qing dynasties were all breached, and the large-scale liquidation work in Liaodong would be completed by next summer at the latest, leaving only 15 regular barracks and 90 thousand garrisons to garrison.

Starting from next spring, there will be 1450,000 regular soldiers of the "Red Banner Army" entering the customs one after another, and the strength of the "Han Wang" department will be obvious to all, and there will definitely be more civilian, official and military generals who will choose to take refuge, and Chongzhen is destined to be even more restless.

"The rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked, and the bird is hidden by the bow" Everyone in the world knows that Huang Han, a traverser, can not let Chongzhen knead, and the autumn of Chongzhen's thirteenth year should be the time to see the poor dagger.

Princess Zheng Xiu'e lived in the "Han Wang" Mansion in the capital most of the time, except for Qin Yanyi's pair of children who stayed in Shizhu, Huang Han's other children were in Beijing.

The contradiction between the emperor and Huang Han will become more and more acute, and the heart of defense is indispensable.

In order to gain a foothold in the Beijing Division, and also for the safety of a large family, he simply sent 2,000 intellectual young cavalrymen who had made great contributions to the Beijing Division, and the main purpose was to stay in the city and not leave.

The "Hanwang" mansion is different, it is expanded again on the basis of the "Hangang Junwang" mansion, and is located at the east end of the pedestrian street of Buyecheng City, sitting north and facing south.

Although the construction area is not as good as the Forbidden City, nor as good as the mansions of King Fu of Luoyang and King Zhou of Kaifeng, its firmness and defense are no less than a small European castle in the Middle Ages.

If the entire community of the city that never sleeps is under attack, the guards can block each passage with prefabricated parts, wood, stone, and gravel bags within an hour, and after six hours, a defense system with an overall function no less than that of the city can be formed.

The number of guards that can be organized in the city that never sleeps is as high as three thousand, and the number of people who report in the Jinyi Guard will certainly not be so many, only eight hundred, equipped with five hundred bicycles.

After 2,000 cavalry were stationed in the city that never sleeps, the total strength reached 5,000, and the cavalry with the rank of non-commissioned officer or above and all of them were trained as officer seeds, and their combat effectiveness was incomparable.

There are at least 30,000 military and civilian households in the capital who belong to the fortress of the "Red Banner Army", and the vast majority of them are military dependents, or the heads of families have good jobs in the "Red Banner Army" system.

The proportion of fortress households concentrated in the vicinity of the city that never sleeps is higher, and it is completely possible to mobilize one or two thousand young adults to participate in the defense of the city that never sleeps.

Of course, this is just an emergency plan to prevent Chongzhen from being blackmailed, and this may not be the case.

Because the imperial power is getting weaker and weaker, there are fewer and fewer loyal ministers and good generals who are willing to die for the Ming Dynasty.

How many soldiers and horses can Chongzhen mobilize and how much food can he raise to complete the surprise attack?

Liu Zhilun and Fang Zhenghua led 60,000 elite Beijing battalions to confront the Liukou along the Yellow River, and there were few capable soldiers left in the capital.

Although the Jinyi guards who can fight are close to 10,000 horses, from the commander Li Ruolian to the same acquaintance Lou Yun, the signing Zhang Chao, etc., the generals with real power have benefited from Huang Han's support and military exploits today.

Jinyiwei and the "Red Banner Army" get along well, it is a friendly army, the emperor ordered to attack the city that never sleeps, it is estimated that more than half of the people will definitely not work, whether there are two or three Jinyiwei simply turned against each other is not easy to say.

The soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division are just maintaining law and order, and if they really receive the holy order to start a war with the "Red Banner Army", I am afraid that eight adults will immediately become deserters, and it is estimated that the two adults have chosen to surrender quite conservatively.

All in all, the strong enemy outside the gate has been eliminated, for the dream of a strong country, let the dragon flag fly in the four continents, and no longer let the stubborn, irritable, and narrow-minded Chongzhen play the piano.

The capital is a symbol of the highest power, and Huang Han plans to lead troops into the capital next autumn to stay in the palace of the "Han King", openly establishing the "Han Dynasty regime".

Instead of Chongzhen's direct review and approval, appointment and dismissal of officials, and the implementation of new policies, the eight-share system was changed to a national examination for civil servants similar to that of later generations.

The hope of becoming an official for scholars is the cornerstone of a stable society, and a fair, open, and just national examination is indispensable.

Only by giving poor scholars and ordinary soldiers from the grassroots level a fair chance to compete and have a bright future can the country be able to maintain peace and stability for a long time.

In the future, there were only two kinds of officials in the "Han Empire", one was to rise to the top by studying, and the other was to become an official master after obtaining military merits.

Hereditary titles can be had, but they only represent the treatment issued by the state, have the aura of honor, and if you want to be an official to govern the party, you must take the civil service examination, or join the army to win military merits.

There will definitely be resistance to the implementation of the new policy, Huang Han doesn't care, it just infringes on the interests of a few privileged classes, and it can't make big waves.

As long as it can benefit more people and make the country prosperous and strong, there is no worry about not being supported.

This is also Huang Han's direct signal to Chongzhen, even if he is the justifiable Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, owning the Jinluan Palace and owning the imperial city does not mean that he has the supreme imperial power.
