On the nineteenth day of the first month, in the face of the overwhelming Mandate of Heaven Army, Zhu Youzhen made up his mind to mobilize the Liao army in Shanhaiguan to enter the King of Guanqin, and Chen Yan, the first assistant of the cabinet, opposed it with all his might on the grounds that "the Liao army guards the Liao land", but Zhu Youzhen seemed to be iron-hearted, and it was rare to be arbitrary, and ordered Chen Yan and Zhang Jinyan to urgently transfer Wu Shangui from Liaodong to the King of Guanqin. Vertex updates are the fastest

On the same day, Li Zicheng's army rushed to Tongguan and camped facing the river, at this time Li Ji's fourth battalion and Li Xin's independent battalion had crossed the Yellow River from Fengling, northeast of Tongguan, and penetrated deep into Shanxi, and arranged a defensive line along the river to meet the large army crossing the river.

If you cross the river from Fengling, you need to bypass the narrow Zhongtiao Mountain to go deep into Pingyang Mansion, Li Zicheng thought for a moment, and let the army turn north and cross the river from Pujin.

This is the coldest time of the year, the Yellow River has been frozen for a long time, the ice is not less than a foot thick, not only soldiers, but also chariots and horses can walk directly on the ice.

Although the ice was firm, the ice was very slippery, and there was a lot of grain, grass, and baggage, so it took Li Zicheng three days for the army to cross the Yellow River.

Li Ji's fourth battalion withdrew and marched eastward, and the second battalion that crossed the Yellow River formed the South Road Army, and after taking Huaiqing, Weihui, and Zhangde, he would follow the official road, go north from Zhending, and approach the Beijing Division from the south, so as to contain the reinforcements on the southern road of the imperial court.

The army of the North Road marched north along the official road on the bank of the Shushui River, and just after reaching Jiezhou, Li Xin had already sent out a message: The independent battalion took Pingyang Mansion, and the prefect Zhang? Surrender.

Li Zicheng was overjoyed, and immediately asked Song Xiance to hurry to Pingyang Mansion and try to stay in office to appease the local people.

The army then divided into three routes: the 5th Battalion of Zhou Bin marched eastward into Zezhou, then turned north, and joined the army at Lu'an or Qinzhou; The third battalion of Qin Danian's division went north along the Yellow River, focusing on the prefectures and counties between Luliang Mountain and the Yellow River, and joined the army in Taiyuan Mansion or Shuozhou, and Li Zicheng personally led the main forces of the first battalion, the sixth battalion, the seventh battalion, and the Fengtian battalion, and went north along the valleys of the Shushui River and the Fen River.

Cai Maode, the governor of Shaanxi, was shocked, and asked for help from Datong and Xuanfu military towns on the one hand, and asked the imperial court for help on the other hand.

Zhu Youzhen convened a temporary court meeting to discuss the entry of the Mandate of Heaven Army into Shanxi.

Unlike last time, now that the Mandate of Heaven Army has entered Shanxi, even Pingyang Mansion has been taken, and the west gate of the Beijing Division has been opened, unless the Heavenly Mandate Army enters the Beijing Division, it must not sit still!

Zhu Youzhen saw that the ministers were sighing again, and couldn't help but sigh, and said: "I don't want to be the king of the country, but everything is the image of the country." The world that my ancestors fought hard to conquer is about to be lost now, what face do I have to see my ancestors? I originally intended to personally supervise the division and fight to the death with the Mandate of Heaven Army, and there is no regret about dying on the battlefield, but I don't want to die! ”

The ministers can no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb, even if they are comforting Zhu Youzhen, they have to be pretending.

The first assistant Chen Yan asked for war, but proposed that he needed to levy training salaries as military funds, but Zhu Youzhen did not allow it; Household Shangshu, Wenyuange University Scholar Jiang De? asked for war, but was also refuted by Zhu Youzhen.

Li Jiantai, the right attendant of the Ministry of Officials and a scholar of Dongge University, came out and said: "The minister's hometown is Quwo, Shanxi, and he is willing to pay the army with private wealth, and he will not bother the officials, please mention the west of the division." ”

Zhu You's prosecutor is happy, he can not only supervise the thief, but also do not need the military salary of the imperial court, this is to worry about the king! Said happily: "If you do it, I will give you an antique push ceremony!" ”

The court meeting ended quickly, and after Li Jiantai returned home, he immediately asked Zhu Youzhen: "The imperial historian Wei Zhengu official is reinstated; Awarded to Shiling? Supervisor of the staff and participate in the supervision of the army; promoted to general Guo Zhongjie as deputy commander-in-chief, leading the military; Ordered Jin Shi Shi to contact Yan, Ning, Gan, and Gu Yishi, and begged for meritorious service to thieves. 0?2"

Zhu Youzhen agreed to all of them, and finally there was a person who was worried about the king, and these were all trivial things, compared with the superintendent, it was simply not worth mentioning.

He also proposed to add Li Jiantai's military department to the title of secretary, give Shang Fang the sword of the son of heaven, and engage in the army cheaply.

On the 26th, Li Jiantai took 1,500 battalions of soldiers and prepared to leave Beijing to crusade against the Mandate of Heaven Army.

At noon, Zhu Youzhen appeared on the tower of Zhengyangmen, the guards were lined up in the east and west, the banners and armor were bright, and the cabinet, the five governments, the six ministries, the official of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the minister of civil and military affairs in Beijing stood behind.

Under the attention of the soldiers, Zhu Youzhen slowly walked out of the city gate, and the soldiers and civil and military officials behind him added up to more than the soldiers who went out.

Li Jiantai stepped forward to thank him, Zhu Youzhen was very happy, and gave a banquet in public, accompanied by the ministers of the palm prints.

After the seventh tour of the wine, Zhu Youzhen personally took charge of the pot and poured three glasses of wine for Li Jiantai, Li Jiantai drank them one by one, and knelt on one knee, "The minister must live up to the emperor's expectations, and the thief will return to the teacher!" ”

"I am really the minister of my humerus!" Zhu Youzhen helped Li Jiantai up, waved back, and the guards were busy presenting a flag with both hands, Zhu Youzhen took it and handed it to Li Jiantai.

Li Jiantai knelt on one knee again, raised his hands above his head, took the pennant, and unfolded it to see that it was the emperor's handwritten letter, saying: On behalf of me, I will march in person!

Li Jiantai was overjoyed, there was such a pennant, sometimes it was more effective than Shang Fang's Tianzi Sword! On his expedition this time, there were only 1,500 soldiers in the Beijing camp, and the rest of the soldiers needed to be collected along the way, and with the emperor's handwritten letter, he happened to gather the soldiers along the way under this big banner.

Kowtowed and thanked Zhu Youzhen, Li Jiantai got on the horse, bowed his hand to Zhu Youzhen and the ministers, did not stop, turned the horse's head, went south along Zhengyangmen Street, and went out of the outer city from Yongding Gate.

……………………………………………………………………………………

When the news of Li Zicheng's proclamation of his proclamation as emperor in Xi'an reached Shengjing through the Mongols, it took a whole month.

The regent Dolgon was unimpressed, and he was most concerned with only two things: one was to force the other regent, Zilharan, to make concessions and thus monopolize power; Another thing that has always made him sullen is that he can't even say anything about his own brothers Duoduo and Azig.

It's close to noon, the sun is warm, and if you don't have to milk your livestock, it's a good time for the afternoon sun.

Dolgon came out of the Chongzheng Palace, was illuminated by the sun, and countless ants suddenly appeared in his heart, as if he was desperately biting his heart, he twisted his body, but it had no effect, the bite happened in the body, and his hands and scimitars couldn't reach it!

"No, I must go to her, stinky girl, my son ascended the throne as the emperor, and he wanted to dump me, it's not so cheap!"

Elogen, the captain of the guard, who did not know what the Lord Regent was muttering, hurriedly stopped and stood beside Dolgon, wanting to ask questions, but did not dare to speak.

Dolgon glanced at it with an eagle's sharp gaze and said, "Irogan, you go back first, this king is going to Yongfu Palace!" ”

"Regent ......"

Dolgon waved his hand and told Irogen not to?? Collect? Jingsheng grub is still blinking? Sauce Yingyi? 詈蟮 Mu 锘寺ゴ┕牒蠊?? Is the fake uncle shallow? Flattering and anti-sobly?? Arm Huan Yi coffin Chen?/p >

Before arriving at Yongfu Palace, Dolgon's pace slowed down.

Su Mo'er just pushed the door out, and when he saw Dolgon, his heart suddenly "chuckled", but Dolgon was the regent and his status was noble, so he reluctantly made a big salute, "Knock to see the regent!" ”

Dolgon waved his hand and asked Su Mo'er to get up, "Is your master here?" ”

"Concubine Zhuang's ......"

"Say!" Seeing Su Mo'er's words flickering, Dolgon snorted coldly, "Even you dare to despise me, the regent? ”

Su Mo'er trembled and said, "The slave doesn't dare!" ”

"This king asked if your master is not there, why are you spitting and spitting?" Dorgon said angrily, "Why don't you say it soon? ”

"Mother is in ......"

Dolgon interrupted her, as long as Bumu Butai was in Yongfu Palace, it was enough, and said coldly, "Don't you lead the way in front?" This king is looking for Concubine Zhuang to discuss important matters, which is a major matter related to the emperor, and you can afford it if you miss the time? ”

What's the big deal, aren't you thinking about the mother? Su Mo'er snorted secretly, but he didn't dare to show it, so he had to introduce Dolgon into the palace.

Bumu Butai was taken aback when he saw this familiar figure, Dolgon was really getting bolder and bolder, and he dared to break into Yongfu Palace in the daytime, if he let others know...... She gave Dolgon a fierce look, and did not give up her seat, "The regent came to Yongfu Palace, I don't know what is important?" ”

Dolgonunu mouthed, let Su Mo'er leave, closed the door smoothly, and sat down, picked up Bumu Butai's tea cup and poured it violently, "Naturally, it's an important matter!" ”

"You ......" Bumu Butai was angry, but he didn't dare to fall out with Dolgon, "Say something quickly, and leave quickly when you are done, so as not to be seen by others......"

"Is this your reward for the king?" Dolgon stared at Bumu Butai and said slowly: "That night in the Capital City God's Temple, how did Concubine Zhuang promise this king? As long as the Nine Emperors ascend the throne as emperors, they will ...... in the future."

Bumu Butai raised his little face and said angrily: "Then you can't break into Yongfu Palace in broad daylight...... You're not without ...... Succeeded......"

"Succeeded?" Dolgon sneered, "This king can count it with his fingers, and he has succeeded a few times!" After a pause, he said: "In the past few days, I have made an appointment with you several times, why don't you go to the capital city god temple once?" Hurt this king and wait for ......"

"The concubine can't serve the regent every day, doesn't the regent have a great fortune and a side blessing?" Bumu Butai was bored in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it too much, "In the past few days, the concubine has been preparing spring clothes for the emperor and is busy!" ”

"Do you need to do it yourself?" Dolgon glanced at Bumu Butai and said coldly: "By the way, from today onwards, every month from now on, you will only have one chance to visit the emperor, and you don't have to worry about the emperor's life!" ”

"You ......" Bumu Butai was shocked, this is to isolate her from the emperor, the emperor is only seven years old, without the care of Eniang, how can she rest assured?

"This is a mutual agreement between this king and Prince Zheng, and it is no longer changeable!" A smile suddenly appeared on Dolgon's face, the smile of a victor, and he used the smile to tell Bumu Butai that if she did not obey, the time to visit the emperor would be reduced.
