Chapter 258: The Qing Army Enters the Fortress

On September 22, the Qing army entered the fortress and it took only three days to reach Miyun. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

After Zhu Youzhen received the news, he was not too alarmed. He had long known that if the peace talks failed, the Manchu Qing would inevitably enter the customs again, and now all he could do was to transfer troops and horses from all over the country to help the Beijing division.

Fortunately, at this time, Li Zicheng was also surrounded and intercepted by the imperial court, the whole army was annihilated, his wife and children were arrested, and only eighteen horsemen fled into Shangluo Mountain. Among the eighteen men was himself.

During this period, all the generals who could fight received Zhu Youzhen's order to return to King Qin.

Even, even Lu Xiangsheng, whose father had just died this year and was begged to go home for the funeral, was retained by Zhu Youzhen and transferred back to the capital.

In this era, filial piety is emphasized, and when parents die, children must keep filial piety for three years. When encountering such a thing, the officials of the imperial court will abandon their official positions and go home to guard the system, which is called "Ding Wei".

After three years of filial piety, he will come back to fill his position.

But when is it now?

has already burned his eyebrows, and Jian Yu is about to hit the door of the house, how can Zhu Youzhen take care of so much?

Jingshi was under martial law again.

The three battalions were all on alert, and all the generals in the capital were transferred to the barracks by Zhu Youzhen. Li Xiuwen, as the commander of the Shenji Battalion, was naturally no exception, and was transferred back to Nanyuan, the camp where the Shenji Battalion was stationed.

At the end of August, Luo Yanran gave birth to a daughter for Li Xiuwen. gave birth to a daughter, which caused Sister Yanran's recent mood to not be very good. And Yang Yuxuan is almost going to give birth in the next few days, but Li Xiuwen has no time to take care of it.

I was going to stay with my wife and wait for him to give birth. Now it seems that even my daughter's full moon wine can't be done.

In fact, in Li Xiuwen's view, the Manchus would not attack the capital, at most they would wreak havoc in the Gyeonggi area, plunder some people and finances, and then retreat.

To be honest, he really wanted the Shenji Battalion to go to the battlefield and see how the combat power was. The other is to let these more than 10,000 people be able to really fight once.

A soldier who has never been on the battlefield and has not experienced a war will never be able to become a true elite. Daily training is just some fancy style.

Bloodiness is tempered on the battlefield and in the sea of corpses and blood.

How can an army without blood transform into an ace army?

As the saying goes, "wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat, and dogs travel thousands of miles to eat", Li Xiuwen hopes that the Shenji Battalion can become a group of howling wild wolves. Of course, such expectations were too high, and he never thought that he would be able to reach the sky in one step.

Speaking of which, he was born as a literati, and he will not have too much blood in his bones, at least this shell is indeed a literati, and he is still the head of the court examination in Kaifeng Mansion.

It is indeed very difficult for literati to lead soldiers and let the soldiers have blood, to be precise, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky!

However, these ideas are always just fantasies, and Zhu Youzhen will not let the Shenji Battalion fight at will. Because the duty of the Beijing camp is to defend the Beijing division.

The reason why the three major battalions of the Beijing Division were on guard was just to prevent accidents, and they were worried that any Manchu general who was not eye-opening would bring people to the outskirts of Beijing if he was not careful.

The eunuch Yan Siyin, after Li Xiuwen's intentional guidance, was also happy to be idle, and did not interfere too much in the military affairs of the Shenji Battalion.

This person loves money, and under Li Xiuwen's generous silver ticket bribe, he didn't think about making any mess for him at all. There is another one, it should be the relationship between Cao Huachun and Li Xiuwen, so that he does not dare to dictate in front of Li Xiuwen.

Are you the Admiral of the Divine Machine Battalion? Cao Huachun is still the governor of Beijing!

In the big tent of the Chinese army, there were two admirals of the Shenji Battalion, Li Xiuwen and Yan Siyin.

"Lord Yan, our Divine Machine Battalion really can't go to the battlefield?" Li Xiuwen asked tentatively.

"Never!"

Yan Siyin was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly dissuaded: "It is a big crime to transfer troops out of the camp without permission, and then Your Majesty Long Yan will be furious, and we will all have to fall to the ground, Lord Li!" ā€

Li Xiuwen had no choice but to nod: "This official understands." ā€

At this time, the concert of the Zhou Wangfu was sent to the capital.

According to the history of the governor of the palace, Zhu Gongfang, the king of Zhou, was critically ill and unable to take care of the affairs of the palace, so he begged the Holy Lord for permission to allow his eight sons and one daughter to go back and serve by his side.

This prince is a subordinate official in the palace of the vassal king, and his duties are equivalent to those of the king, and he is in charge of the affairs of the palace. It's just that the chief of the palace has always been a scapegoat for the prince, and he specializes in carrying the black pot.

If the vassal king is at fault, he will be blamed for the long history!

This simple sentence can explain everything.

Of course, if the vassal king rebelled, such a crime would not be something that the chief of the royal palace could do on his behalf.

It stands to reason that if King Zhou is pretending to be sick, such a crime of bullying the king, the chief of the palace should not come out to bear the black pot. On the contrary, it may be the first to report to the imperial court.

Zhu Youzhen did not doubt that he had him, but he was unwilling to let go of these princes easily.

After thinking about it for a while, it was decided to let only the prince Zhu Shaoye and the king of Zhou's favorite little lord Zhu Huaiyu go back, and the rest of the sons continued to stay in the capital.

In this way, King Zhou can still be restrained.

Zhu Youzhen felt that he was already very kind and kind to be able to make such a decision. What he didn't know was that such a result was all in the calculations of Zhu Shaoye and Li Xiuwen.

Without bargaining, how could Zhu Youzhen easily agree and let Zhu Gongzhen go back with a son and a daughter?

And the long history of the palace has already become Zhu Shaoye's person. Li Xiuwen proposed such a strategy to him, and he immediately adopted it, so that the governor of the palace had such a trick in history.

Maybe until now, King Zhou has been kept in the dark and doesn't know the inside story at all.

Zhu Shaoye is also cautious, and he is not casually talking nonsense about King Zhou's serious illness. Zhu Gongqi is indeed sick, but his condition is not as serious as Zhu Youzhen imagined.

Zhu Youzhen was already suspicious of King Zhou's mansion, and Li Xiuwen naturally did not have the luxury of hoping that all eight sons of King Zhou would be able to return to Kaifeng.

Whether this emperor will send someone down to investigate, Li Xiuwen doesn't know. In the days to come, as long as you pay more attention to the movements of the factory guards. Even if the imperial court really sends someone down to verify, it may not be able to find out what is greasy, and King Zhou is indeed sick!

After Zhu Shaoye got permission, he immediately packed up and took his sister Zhu Huaiyu to set off.

The people who want to rebel are himself and Li Xiuwen, as long as he can go back to preside over the overall situation, it is enough. As for the other younger brothers, let's take our time to figure out a way in the future. Anyway, as long as the matter has not been revealed, there is no need to worry about their lives.

That is, on the day Zhu Shaoye left Beijing, Li Xiuwen received news from home in the military camp and learned that Yang Yuxuan had given birth and gave birth to a big fat boy for himself.

The Li family, finally has a queen! (To be continued.) )
