"What's going on?" Hearing that there was a problem with Sanhaiguan and Jizhou, Chongzhen, who was originally a little drowsy, woke up instantly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Back to the emperor, just a quarter of an hour ago, the telegram from Jizhou could no longer be contacted after sending back a message" Regarding the current situation, Wang Chengen did not dare to slack off, and immediately conveyed everything that the little eunuch who had just summoned to him told Chongzhen.

"What news did Jizhou finally send back" Suddenly Chongzhen felt that he had a headache, whether it was this group of civil and military officials in the court or the feudal officials who guarded one side, everyone who could make himself worry.

"Spy, the city is broken, there is no news from Jizhou City after this" Wang Chengen cautiously said the news, according to the current intelligence, it can be determined that Jizhou has been lost.

"In other words, Jizhou City has now been broken, how did Wu Guojun become the chief soldier" There is no problem with Zunhua, which I am most worried about, but what I didn't expect is that Jizhou is actually broken, and the rice buckets are all a bunch of rice buckets.

"Big companion, who is the nearest eunuch to Jizhou, immediately inform him to find out the current situation in Jizhou, if this matter is not clarified by me, I want his head" Now the top priority is to find out, how did Jizhou City break the city, even if there are spies to open the city gate, this time to break the city is enough for the personnel of Jizhou's spy department to reflect the situation, how can they send such a hurried message and completely lose contact.

Under the city of Jizhou

"Great Khan, the front is Jizhou City, whether the army is detouring or preparing to attack the city, please make a decision" Mang Gurtai quickly returned to the side of Huang Taiji in the center of the army.

"Go to Jizhou City to stop the march, bury the pot and make rice, let the soldiers of the Eight Banners, replenish their physical strength, and we will take Jizhou Cheng is walking" Huang Taiji commanded Mang Gurtai on horseback, although many villages have been plundered recently, but the people who live in the villages are a group of bitter haha, there is no oil and water, and it is time to take a city to reward the army and improve morale. 、

"Order" Mang Gurtai clenched his fists, and sped up his horse to rush to the front army to arrange arrangements.

Jizhou City Government

Now the three most important big men in Jizhou City, Wu Guojun, the prefect Zhou Zhizhong, and the eunuch Wang Zhen all gathered in the prefect's mansion to discuss Jizhou's city defense plan.

"Your Excellency, the horse returns. The Jurchen army bypassed Zunhua and now went straight to Jizhou" After hearing the words of the chief soldier Wu Guojun, several people in the process of doing it frowned, the Jurchens were fierce, and these thousands of soldiers and horses in Jizhou faced 100,000 Jurchens, although there was a city wall, everyone had no bottom in their hearts.

"Now that the chief soldier has received the news, I don't know what to do in the face of the upcoming Jurchens" Although the prefect is a fourth-grade civilian, and the general soldier is a third-grade military position, but now the literati are in charge, and the prefect is in charge of the logistics such as the distribution of military salaries and equipment updates, so it is still the prefect who is really in charge here.

At this time, the chief soldier Wu Guojun looked at the town guard eunuch Wang Zhen on the side, "Wang Gonggong, I don't know, whether the emperor has the latest news passed over" Nowadays, the telegrams from all over the country are completely in the hands of the eunuchs headed by the ceremonial supervisor Wang Chengen, such as the Espionage Department of Jizhou City, the telegraph personnel are hung under the banner of the town guard eunuch here, and generally Chongzhen has any will, the espionage department personnel notify the town guard eunuch, and then the town guard eunuch here announces Chongzhen's order

"The emperor's meaning, there is only one, to defend the city wall, this time the Jurchens are lone and deep, they will not dare to stay in the city for a long time, and please do your own work" Chongzhen strictly ordered the eunuchs to not interfere in local military affairs for no reason, and the main focus of work is to become the umbrella of smugglers in various places, collect high profits and stratification, and crack down on all smuggling that has not paid protection fees, so now Wang Zhen is just quietly making a microphone, and after speaking, he will honestly sit on the side.

"Since this is the case, I will arrange for the soldiers to defend the city, and the two adults and officials will leave first" After saying that, the chief soldier Wu Guojun went out of the gate of the palace and went straight to the city wall to command the soldiers to defend the city.

"The chief soldier is gone, then our family will no longer disturb the prefect, if there is anything, the prefect can send someone to the spy department to inform our family, now that there are many wars, our family will temporarily live in the spy department, so that it is convenient to convey the emperor's orders." After saying that, Wang Zhen, the eunuch guarding the town, didn't pay attention to the prefect, and turned around and left directly.

"Princess, go slowly" The prefect on the side of the "Prince, slow down" has a different attitude towards the general soldier just now, seeing that Wang Zhen, the eunuch, is leaving, he immediately got up to say goodbye, no matter when only the eunuch bullies others, and he has never seen the unwanted initiative to provoke the eunuch, so in the face of Wang Zhen, the prefect can only smile and accompany the smiling face.

After the chief soldier Wu Guojun and Wang Zhen left the town guard eunuch, in addition to the prefect Zhou Zhizhong, there was only one of his masters and 2 officials in the entire palace, at this time, the master nodded slightly at the two officials, and then the master picked up a cup of tea and handed it to the prefect Zhou Zhizhong, "The prefect is fortunate to deal with official business, please drink tea" This master has been with Zhou Zhizhong for a few years, and when he saw the tea handed over by his master, Zhou Zhizhong habitually picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Wang Zhen, that dead eunuch actually dares to give me a face, sooner or later there will be a ........" Before he finished speaking, the prefect fell down with a black face. You two go and hide the body of the prefect," under the instructions of the master, the two officials moved the body of the prefect, and the master himself ran to a large mansion near the prefect, and after a few rhythmic knocks, the door opened, and dozens of people were waiting in the hall.

On the city wall, the chief soldier Wu Guojun was patrolling the city with a pair of personal soldiers, and when he walked to the city gate, he saw the prefect's master coming here with a group of people.

"Master, what are you doing here at the city gate?" Seeing the master come here, Wu Guojun was a little strange.

"It's Lord Commander-in-Chief, this is not the prefect's order to order the subordinate to bring some food to reward these soldiers who are guarding the city," the master explained cautiously with a smiling face. Hearing this, the face of the chief soldier Wu Guojun turned a little dark, hasn't the prefect always never interfered in the army, why did he not succeed in taking the opportunity to buy his subordinates this time.

At this time, the people brought by the master had already begun to distribute food to the soldiers guarding the city nearby with large baskets, but several of Wu Guojun's personal soldiers did not take the food, and their own prefect did not deal with it, so these personal soldiers refused to bring those enthusiastic servants brought by the master. When the master saw his own people, he was already standing behind those pro-soldiers.

"Trouble the lord to come here, the prefect asked me to tell you something secretly" said that the master approached the chief soldier Wu Guojun, but out of the soldier's intuition, Wu Guojun did not get too close, I saw the master whisper something, Wu Guojun, who did not hear clearly, instinctively approached the master, wanting to hear what was said, "snort", a dagger in the master's hand pierced into the stomach of the chief soldier Wu Guojun, "The prefect said, he wants you to go down to accompany him." After a fierce twist, the master pushed away the corpse of the chief soldier Wu Guojun

Seeing the master do it, the people brought by the master took out their knives under the basket, and killed those pro-soldiers with a few knives, and the other soldiers guarding the city nearby found that something was wrong and wanted to come over to support, and as soon as they picked up their weapons, they fell down with a black face.

The city gate opened, a firecracker rose into the sky, and the sound of horses' hooves sounded outside the city.

"Come with me, there seems to be some secret in the Espionage Division, and Wang Zhen's old eunuch is also over there, just a pot is served." After a group of people opened the city gate, they immediately rushed to the direction of the location of the Jizhou Espionage Division.
