Chapter 172: Return to Runing

In the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, in October, the Qing army attacked the pass from Huangyakou.

Since then, Beijing has been under martial law for more than half a year.

Emperor Chongzhen was able to issue a few decrees at first, and he could also receive some reports of beating from the localities, but when the army occupied Henan and Guanzhong, the Qing army was entrenched in Shandong, and Beijing's contact with the outside world was basically cut off.

Occasionally, news came, and it was all bad news that various places had fallen, which made Chongzhen feel powerless, and the courtiers did not have any strategy to solve the current crisis.

Fortunately, the Qing army came to the city, not once or twice, after many times, the cabinet officials and the army in Beijing City were also accustomed to the martial law of the Beijing Division, and there was no chaos when the Beijing Division arrived.

At this time, the elite soldiers of the Ming Dynasty in the north were only left in the Guanning army in the Shanhaiguan area, and this man could not move, and the imperial court had already sent a will to let the king of Qin in the south.

There is only so much the cabinet can do, and there is only one word left: "wait".

Either wait for Jiannu to leave by himself, or wait for the Ming army in the south to come to King Qin and force Jiannu out of the pass.

The old empire of nearly three hundred years has not many cards in his hand.

The cabinet has no cards to play, so it can only sit in the Beijing division and work hard, and it is not in a hurry.

However, they were not in a hurry, but Emperor Chongzhen was in a hurry.

This world is the world of the Zhu family, the ministers are not distressed, he is distressed.

Jiannu lived in his Zhu family's house for more than half a year, and Emperor Chongzhen was unpleasant, unable to sleep at night, and lost a lot of weight.

Outside the palace gate, a few thin civil officials in scarlet robes, their steps were fast, and as soon as they arrived at the palace gate, Wang Chengen hurriedly greeted him, and hurriedly urged: "A few elders, come with our family, Your Majesty has urged it six times." ”

Zhou Yanru's face changed, and he hurriedly pulled the hem of his official robe, and trotted up.

When I was in a hurry today, I worked hard for a while, and I urged six times, and a few old things ran in a hurry.

After a while, everyone arrived outside the main hall, Wang Chengen went first to report, and after a while, he stood at the door and beckoned: "A few pavilion elders come in." ”

Zhou Yanru, Wu Fufang, Wei Zaode and others hurriedly entered the hall, and saw Chongzhen, who had been robed all his life, holding a copy of the fold in his hand, and walked back and forth in the hall excitedly.

When he saw a few people coming in, he immediately stopped, took the recital, and asked the few people who had just stepped into the threshold: "A few Aiqing, have you verified the great victory mentioned in Ma Shiying's recital, is it true?" ”

Historically, the Qing army retreated from Shandong in May and returned to Liaodong in June.

According to the Korean history book "Shenyang Zhuangqi", the returning Qing soldiers "wore clothes that were completely torn and invisible, and all of them were in the shape of ghosts", and because of "many deaths", "only half of the number of people who entered the country compared with the previous year". Many family members of Jiannu looked through their eyes, but what they were looking forward to was the bad news of the death of their father and son. For a time, "inside and outside the city gates, there were many crying houses".

North Korea has always been biased towards the Ming Dynasty, and there are many exaggerated elements in the records, but it can also be seen that although the Qing army has gained a lot, it has been abroad for a long time and has suffered great losses.

In addition to the factors of warfare, the main reason for this was the plague, disease, and supply restrictions for half a year, and the loss and inability to replenish supplies.

A pair of shoes and a piece of armor are worn for seven or eight months in a row, and people are naturally like ghosts.

This time, the Qing army stayed in Shandong until June, and the besieged city of Linqing was cut off from food, and the grain and grass of the Qing army were actually insufficient.

It was only a matter of time before Abatai wanted to withdraw from the Guanwai.

At this time, Gao Yihuan attacked the Tartar camp, creating an opportunity for the Ming army in the south, and the Ming army's northward march was a key straw for Abatai's decision to get out of the pass.

The Qing army's food has been exhausted, Shandong has nothing to rob, once it is entangled by the Ming army, and can not win in a short time, the 100,000 Qing army will be in great danger.

In this case, Abatai can only choose to return to the customs area.

Ma Shiying's recital first went to the Ministry of War, and then to the cabinet, and Zhou Yanru and others had already seen it.

Ma Shiying naturally did not mention Gao Yihuan in the recital, and he strategized and commanded the entire battle.

The officers and troops of Nanzhi first had a premeditated attack on Xuzhou, and endured humiliation for half a year, just to paralyze the Jiannu of Teng County, and then sent troops to attack behind the enemy, attacking the east and west, and transferring the Qing army of Teng County, and finally Teng County was empty, and took Teng County in one fell swoop, and won a total of more than 3,000 pieces.

After that, he continued to pursue, relieved the siege of Linqing, and won countless more.

The whole twist and turn is quite wonderful, exciting, sprinkled with more than 8,000 words, and 36 plans were quickly made by him.

After the cabinet saw it, they also beheaded 3,000, but no one believed it at all, so it was suppressed for a day.

But immediately afterwards, the twists and turns of the Shandong side also came, which proved Ma Shiying's twists and turns from the side, and Zhou Yanru was busy asking people to send them up.

Among the several people, Wei Zaode presided over the military department, and he replied: "Your Majesty, this matter has been verified by the minister, because the governor of Shandong has also come over, so it is basically credible." Speaking of this, Wei Zaode hesitated, feeling that the words still couldn't be too full, in case Ma Shiying falsely reported his military exploits and implicated him, so he hurriedly changed his words: "However, Shandong is too far away from Beijing, and the minister still needs to send someone to check again." ”

Chongzhen only listened to the previous words, his face turned red with excitement, he didn't listen to the latter words at all, so he waved his hand impatiently: "Quick, Shandong's song is shown to me!" ”

Wei Zaode happened to take it with him, and hurriedly took it out of his sleeve and presented it to Chongzhen.

As soon as Chongzhen read it, this recital was also brilliant, but the point was to emphasize how the officials of the Third Division of Shandong skillfully led the main force of Jiannu to Jinan, bought time for the defense of various places, and finally succeeded in making the Qing army reluctant to retreat.

The content of Shandong's and Nanzhili's notes is different, but one thing is certain, that is, Jiannu really withdrew from Shandong.

"The slave was frustrated in Shandong, and Ma Aiqing has urged King Qin's division to come north." Chongzhen closed the fold, his face could not hide the joy, he looked at a few people, and suddenly said with an excited face: "This is a rare opportunity, a few pavilion elders, who is willing to go out of Beijing to supervise the teacher, cooperate with Ma Aiqing, and recreate the slave in one go!" ”

The Ming Dynasty lost more than 100,000 in the first battle, and the Ming army beheaded more than 3,000 levels, which obviously could not satisfy Chongzhen.

After watching the two copies, Chongzhen's sense of powerlessness disappeared, and he felt that the Ming army could still make a difference, so he hoped that they would be able to establish more merits, hit the Jiannu who had entered the Kou, and relieve the hatred in his heart.

Facing Chongzhen's expectant gaze, several scholars felt a chill on their backs.

Not to mention that Jiannu is not easy to fight, Ma Shiying's performance has not been verified, even if it is true, if he goes out to supervise the teacher but does not meet the expectations of the emperor, I am afraid that there will be trouble.

Seeing the emperor's gaze at him, the scholar Wu Fufang hurriedly saluted and said: "Your Majesty, the minister wants to share his worries for His Majesty, but the minister has just taken over the matter of supervising the rogue, and he really lacks skills. ”

Chongzhen frowned slightly, but Liukou was also a big deal, so he turned his eyes to a few other people, but saw Wei Zaode, who was still talking just now, bowing his head to the ground, his ass cocked high.

Zhou Yanru was thinking about things in his heart, and his movements were a beat slower, and he was immediately targeted by Chongzhen.

"Zhou Qing, are you willing to supervise the teacher?" Chongzhen looked at him and asked.

Zhou Yanru complained bitterly in his heart, but after thinking about it, Jiannu had been in Kou for more than half a year, and it was time to get out of the customs.

Now that he can't hide, he can only salute and say: "The minister is willing to invite himself to the master to kill slaves for His Majesty." ”

Chongzhen was immediately overjoyed, issued an edict to praise, surrendered his hand, compared him to Zhaohu and Pei Du, gave Zhang Yi, platinum, Wenqi and 4 first-class horses, and took out a large number of gold silks for Zhou Yanru to reward the army.
