Just two days after Chongzhen convicted Lu Xiangsheng of the crime, Shunde Mansion sent another news that shocked the government and the opposition in Beijing, saying that the Xingtian Army defeated a Jiannu army in Neiqiu County on the 14th of the lunar month, beheaded 17,800 people, and used the head of Jiannu on the official road in the south of Neiqiu County, poured water and built a Jingguan with ice, which was magnificent, and the battlefield was full of Jiannu's headless corpses, which was eaten by wild dogs and crows, and at the same time, the Xingtian Army also rescued 70,000 people who were captured by Jiannu, They were escorting the people who had been taken captive by Jiannu to the south.

Both Chongzhen and Yang Sichang were completely shocked by this news, and the officials sent by the Shunde Mansion to Neiqiu to investigate swore that they had already checked it, and the heads of the people who built the Jingguan were indeed the heads of the Tartars, and they were not built by killing the people of the Ming Dynasty and cutting off the heads.

Chongzhen is really a little dizzy, what the hell is going on? He has millions of soldiers in the Ming Dynasty, but Jiannu knocking on the gate is as convenient as shopping on the street, since this period of time, there is bad news everywhere, either the general soldier was killed or the governor was killed, but no official army reported the news of a big victory even if it was a small victory, (Lu Xiangsheng and the Tartars fought a small victory, Yang Sichang pressed it and did not report, Lu Xiangsheng himself did not report, but Chongzhen did not know!) After Chen Xinjia arrived, he divided Lu Xiangsheng's soldiers, and there was no news, and he led the troops around Baoding Mansion, and he also didn't hear of a battle with the Tartars, but after the Xingtian army went north, he killed more than a thousand Tartar soldiers in Neiqiu, and if it was calculated according to the Eight Classics, the Tartar losses were at least more than 3,000.

And this is not counting the news reported by Yang Tinglin and Julu County before, if the Xingtian Army really fought against the Jiannu Army in Julu and indeed won a great victory, then this plus Neiqiu's record, the Xingtian Army itself killed more than 5,000 Jiannu.

Thinking of this, Chongzhen began to get angry, and scolded angrily: "These governors, ministers, and generals eat the court every day, what are they doing?" Why can the Xingtian thieves beat the Jiannu army, their army of hundreds of thousands, but let the Tartars wreak havoc in Jingfu, but there has never been a half-time victory? ”

Yang Sichang really had nothing to say at this time, he was a mess of the bandits, and recommended Xiong Wencan, not only did he not suppress the bandits in Henan, but he lost almost all of Henan to the Xingtian Army, nearly 100,000 officers and soldiers were wiped out by the Xingtian Army on the battlefield in Henan, and one after another generals were defeated in the hands of the Xingtian Army.

Now Jiannu into the Kou, his main soldier of the former military department of Shangshu, the current cabinet minister, first the main and, after the rumors of the main peace and failure, the main battle he divided the main battle faction of Lu Xiangsheng's military power, the result is that Lu Xiangsheng is a major general, was destroyed by the Tartars, but the Tartars drove straight into the territory of Shunde Mansion, and at the same time divided the troops to Shanxi, went to Taiyuan Mansion, so that he had to divide Lu Xiangsheng's soldiers again, sent Wang Pu back to Taiyuan to rescue, and now Gao Qiqian with tens of thousands of Guanning troops in the Shunde Mansion area, just didn't dare to fight with the Tartars, but let the Xingtian Army go north, and one guy wiped out thousands of Tartars.

In his heart, he actually believed Yang Tinglin's words, Lu Xiangsheng is likely to be dead, and Gao Qiqian secretly sent someone to send him a letter yesterday, which also proves the news, saying that a group of generals under Lu Xiangsheng have been put into his camp, and all of them have confirmed that they have seen Lu Xiangsheng's body, Lu Xiangsheng's death, in fact, he knows very well that it was caused by him and Gao Qiqian secretly interfering, and now he has regretted it a little, If it weren't for them to restrain Lu Xiangsheng everywhere, let the officers and soldiers give Lu Xiangsheng the command, and the war might not have been so erosive.

Now looking at the furious Chongzhen, he can only kneel down and plead guilty, saying that he is not in good order, so that the war is so bad.

Chongzhen was angry, but now he still trusts Yang Sichang, how did he know the dirty things that Yang Sichang and Gao Qiqian did to Lu Xiangsheng behind his back! Seeing that Yang Sichang took the initiative to ask for guilt, he was a little moved, and felt that Yang Sichang was still brave in doing things, and he was a person who dared to take responsibility, and after thinking for a while, he shook his head and said: "You can't blame Yang Aiqing for this matter, after all, I am also at fault, but the current situation is that the thief will go north, and it will definitely cause a lot of trouble, so you must not be negligent in this matter!"

Compared with Jiannu, the Xingtian thieves are the henchmen of the imperial court, how can they be used to fight against Jiannu? Otherwise, where will we be? And the people whom they have taken captive, who are my people, how can they be carried into the land of thieves and become obedient people of the thieves? You quickly send someone to tell Gao Qiqian that he must intercept these people and send them back to their hometowns to resettle! In short, they can't be coerced away by the Heavenly Thieves! In addition, Shunde Mansion, Guangping Mansion, and Zhangde Mansion were strictly ordered to set up cards everywhere for me, so as to block the grain route of the thieves, and not to provide a grain of grain supply to the thief army, otherwise they would be thieves! I will punish you severely! ”

Yang Sichang secretly wiped a handful of sweat, and hurriedly knelt down to thank him for receiving the order, but as soon as his eyes rolled, he continued to play to Chongzhen: "Qi Song Shengshang, the Xingtian thieves are brazenly going north, there must be no good intentions, they are fighting with Jiannu, but they are just pretentious!" And Weichen thinks that now that the Xingtian thief army is heading north, the strength of the thief army in Henan will be insufficient, and taking this opportunity is a good opportunity to recover all parts of Henan! Why don't you personally issue an order from the saint, so that Zuo Liangyu, the general soldier of Huguang, take this opportunity to wave his army to the north to recover all parts of the Central Plains, forgive as long as the general army of Zuo sends troops, the thieves will have to return to the south, so that they will not make trouble in Jingfu again! ”

After hearing this, Chongzhen was first overjoyed, and felt that Yang Sichang's brain was really good, and the analysis was very reasonable, but after thinking about it, he felt that it seemed a bit troublesome to do so, after all, now the banner of the Xingtian Army is to help the imperial court to build a slave, and they have really sent troops to the north, fought a battle with Jiannu, and won a great victory, and now they have taken the initiative to stop the attack on the surrounding places in Henan, and it is clear that they are winning the hearts of the people in the world. If the imperial court now sends troops to attack the territory under their control, it will be a bit dirty.

And Chongzhen has now realized that the Xingtian Army may become a great enemy who competes with him for the world, and Xiao Tianjian, the thief chief of the Xingtian Army, is a very smart person, knowing how to buy the hearts of the people in the world, these two months the Xingtian thieves have been preaching everywhere that they want to fight the Tartars with the imperial court, for which there have been many scholars who have expressed their support for their choice, which is even more terrible than their siege of the city, and the emperor's greatest fear is that people's hearts fall to the enemy, and now Yang Sichang suggested that he transfer troops to Henan, Isn't this given to the thief chieftain surnamed Xiao?

What's more, now the Tartars are still wreaking havoc in the Guan, and now they are sending troops to attack Henan, isn't it a bit of that? For this reason, Chongzhen twisted his brows and hesitated a little.

Yang Sichang is a very smart person, and he understood Chongzhen's hesitation with a roll of his eyes, so he immediately said: "The saint must not hesitate, you must know that the Xingtian thief going north this time is a move to buy people's hearts, if they let them defeat Jiannu in the northern Jingfu in a row, wouldn't it be even more embarrassing for the saint?" And now while its main elite is heading north, it is a good time to recover the Central Plains, once Jiannu withdraws from the Guanwai, the Xingtian thieves will return to Henan, and if they want to recover the Central Plains, won't they have to spend more troops? Therefore, the Holy One must not hesitate now, and must make a quick decision! ”

Thinking of the Xingtian Army sitting in the Great Central Plains, Chongzhen felt a chill in his heart, and the strength of the Xingtian Army is now getting stronger and stronger, and it has shown a state of being in a state of being big, although the imperial court has continued to increase its conquest and suppression in the past two years, but the result is that the more and more they suppress, the larger the territory they occupy, but to deal with their officers and soldiers, to one by them to destroy one, to two to be destroyed by a pair, so that now to a certain extent, the Xingtian Army and Jiannu are almost evenly divided, and when the official mentions them, he will shudder a little, If it is true that after Jiannu returns to Guanwai, and then deals with the Xingtian Army, I don't know how many soldiers and horses will be dispatched over! How much money and food will it cost! Thinking about Chongzhen, he felt a pain in his flesh and a headache.

Although it is a bit dirty to send troops to Henan now, it makes him feel a little disgraced, but think about it again, this world is the world of their Zhu family, Henan is originally the Henan of his Zhu family, when does he want to take it back, isn't it a matter of course? And what is the morality of the thieves who are thieves? Destroying them is the main topic now, and the key is to take this opportunity to weaken the strength of this anti-army more important than face.

So Chongzhen no longer hesitated, sat down and began to discuss with Yang Sichang how to deal with the Xingtian Army, and the two quickly agreed on a vicious method, and then one after another the holy decree and the order of the military department flew out of the capital division, and was carried to various places by the messenger and the messenger.
