"Your Majesty, at present, the north is besieged by Zhuang Wei, and the east and south gates are tightly blocked by saffron thieves, and I am afraid that I will not be able to hold it by relying on the troops in the city alone!" , Fukangan's forehead was pressed against the floor, and he said tremblingly.

"Rubbish! A bunch of rubbish! Gui is a waste, and so are you! The traitors have all hit the capital, and you have no way to do it! Qianlong grabbed the things on the table and smashed them indiscriminately!

Fukangan was hit twice in a while, and he didn't dare to say anything when he was smashed with blood all over his head, Liu Tongxun couldn't stand it at this time, and came out to advise, "Your Majesty, Ah Gui and Lord Fu have been working hard these days, and Lord Ah Gui has been personally in battle, wearing three wounds, it is not that the two of them are incompetent, but because there are too many traitors; Now is not the time to blame them, it's better to find a way to get the enemy to retreat as soon as possible! ”

"What is Aiqing's clever plan to retreat from the enemy?" After venting for a while, Qianlong's anger almost went down, and he looked at Liu Tongxun with blank eyes, hoping that this old minister could think of some way to keep the capital.

"Now the only way to defend the city is to gather the family members, slaves, and rangers in the market to go to the city wall to help defend the city; His Majesty issued an edict to King Qin, summoning the loyal and righteous people from all over the world to rush to the capital, so that the capital may still be able to hold on! Liu Tongxun handled government affairs well, and all military affairs were a layman's opinion.

To put it nicely, gather the families and servants of all the prefectures to go to the city wall to guard the gate? Are you afraid that it will be inconvenient for them to open the door? As for King Qin's army, it is even more of a shadowless thing, once the neighboring Shanxi draws out the people, it should be broken by Prince Zhuang Taiyuan City, Shandong and Henan together can't draw many people, and the road is not close, when they come to the capital, maybe they will be beaten down by the enemy long ago, Qianlong sneered, "What if you can't hold it?" ”

"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven. If you can't keep the capital, the old minister is willing to accompany Your Majesty to martyrdom! Liu Tongxun's gray beard trembled for a while, looking solemn, as if he was ready to die generously at any time.

Phew, the Son of Heaven guards the country. The king is dead? Are you one of those fools in the past? Qianlong's anger came up again, and he was about to scold and scold when he saw that the situation was not right, and hurriedly stood up and kowtowed, "Your Majesty is the king of a country, you must not put yourself in danger, the slave asks Your Majesty to hunt Chang'an in the west, and leave some vitality for me in the Qing Dynasty!" ”

"Heshen! You traitor! Liu Tongxun was furious, pointing at He Shen, and was speechless by his idea.

"Your Majesty. The minions impeached Liu Tongxun for ignoring the grace of the saint and attempting to trap my Qing Dynasty in a land of no return! Without waiting for Liu Tongxun to finish speaking, He Shen preemptively said, "Your Majesty, Chongzhen died in the past, but Qianming died after all; On the contrary, it was the Tang Ming Emperor who entered Sichuan to preserve his useful body, and the Tang Dynasty could especially save Sheji! ”。 He Shen had long seen that Qianlong was unwilling to stay here and wait for death, and immediately came up with historical examples to support him.

As soon as he finished speaking, he thought of the matter of the prince's self-reliance after Emperor Tang Ming entered Sichuan. He Shen hurriedly added, "This is a chaotic situation, Your Majesty needs to take all the elder brothers with you to protect them!" ”

"It's reasonable to say this to adults!" , Fukangan also echoed, "Since ancient times, Qin soldiers have endured hard fighting. At present, there are many old troops of Lord A Gui in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Green Camp, let's go to Chang'an, recruit local warriors to join the army, and we will definitely be able to make a comeback in the future! ”

"But at the moment, Zhuang Yi has not yet arrived outside the city, and the safflower thief has not started to attack. I'm just leaving", Qianlong suddenly felt a little embarrassed again, and wanted to see the result without a few battles? If the capital can be defended, it will be defended, and if it can't be defended, it will not be too late to run away! It's too faceless to run away without fighting this battle, right?

My majesty, when will you not be able to lose your face! He Shen is a roundworm in his stomach, where can he not see that this lord's self-esteem has flareed up again, and hurriedly advised, "Your Majesty, at this time, Zhuang Cheng and the safflower thief arrived in the capital at the same time, it is the situation of the two tigers fighting, once we withdraw, the two thieves will inevitably regard the capital as their own territory, so as to fight, we can just watch from the wall, the two tigers will inevitably fight one dead and one injured, and then we will come back with the Shaanxi and Gansu army, so that the capital can be recovered!" If we stay in the capital and don't leave, the two thieves may be temporarily united, so it's just a waste of the capital's troops, it's really worth the loss! ”

Seeing that Qianlong was a little moved, Heshan hurriedly added, "Moreover, both rice and firewood in Beijing rely on transportation from outside the city, and now only the west gate is left to enter and exit, how can this be enough for the consumption of millions of residents in Beijing?" If you go to Beijing for a long time, you will inevitably starve all over the place, and please ask Your Majesty to lead the army to hunt for the people and the world as soon as possible! ”

"Yes! At present, the Zhili and Henan generations are still stable, if the safflower thief waves his army north for a long time, I am afraid that he will not be able to leave if he wants to! Fukangan also hurriedly frightened, he didn't want to stay here and fight with Honghua, the previous battle in Fujian and the fate of his cheap Lao Tzu had already frightened him.

"Hey, such a big deal, I have to ask the Queen Mother what she means!" , Qianlong sighed, and his heart was already ready for the West Hunt, "You go down and think about what the West Hunt will prepare!" ”

"Your Majesty, by all means!" , Liu Tongxun knelt on the ground and hugged Qianlong's thigh and begged.

"Lord Liu is old, I'm afraid I'm a little confused, you should hurry up and help Lord Liu go back to rest!" , Qianlong endured and endured it, and only then did he take back the scolding words.

He Shen and Fukangan immediately stepped forward to pull hands one by one, and quickly pulled Liu Tongxun down; Qianlong arrived outside the palace of the Queen Mother, and after entering, he saw that the Queen Mother was reciting the Buddha, if it was in the past, he would have waited quietly for the Queen Mother to finish reading, but the more he thought about it during this time, the more he felt that if today's chaos was caused by the edict, coupled with the urgency of the situation, he couldn't care so much at the moment, and directly spoke out and said it to He Shen, Fukangan and others.

"Hey, what's really not to do now?" , The Queen Mother also panicked when she heard that the matter was so urgent.

"Yes, if there is only one way to die in Beijing, there may be a few ways to survive in Xijia Chang'an!" , Qianlong said respectfully, while secretly praying, the road is bumpy along the way, you old woman will die on the road!

"The mourning family is a female streamer, and it is good that Your Majesty is in charge of this kind of national affairs!" , the Queen Mother rubbed her head and made a haggard appearance.

"There, I'll go and make arrangements!" , Qianlong saw that she did not object, and immediately went down to summon He Shen, Fukangan, A Gui and other cronies to discuss the matter of Xijiao, as for Liu Tongxun, of course he would not let him do bad things again! (To be continued......)
