"Hehehe......" Baiguan couldn't help laughing. But then he became nervous because of Emperor Jiajing's words.

"But...... Although the Tartars in the northern city have no siege engines and arrow towers, we also don't have barbed wire? ”

Luo Xin smiled and said: "Your Majesty, when the minister asked the Ministry of Industry and the Ordnance Superintendent to make a lot of barbed wire, as long as the minister is willing, overnight, Beicheng will hang a barbed wire fence again." And the steppe coalition army has no siege vehicles and arrow towers, and this barbed wire fence is their nightmare. The capital can be defended. ”

Emperor Jiajing was overjoyed when he heard this, and Xu Jie and other officials were also smiling, worried for more than ten days, and today they can finally rest assured. Emperor Jiajing patted Luo Xin's shoulder affectionately and said:

"Luo Qing, you have great merit and great Ming! When the grassland soldiers retreat, I will be rewarded! ”

Luo Xin shook his head slightly and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is not worried about the grassland coalition army attacking the city, but he is worried that the grassland coalition army will bypass the capital and go deep into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, burning, killing and looting. ”

Emperor Jiajing's face changed, the faces of the hundred officials changed, and the faces of the surrounding soldiers changed.

At this moment, all sober people realized that Luo Xin's speculation was likely to happen!

No!

It's bound to happen!

Because the grassland has been left without food and grass for a few days, this grain and grass is not enough for them to eat on the way back to the grassland. If they return to the steppe like this, I am afraid that before they return to the steppe, they will starve to death on the way.

They couldn't attack the capital, so they only had one way, the only way, that is, to bypass the capital, go deep into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, burn, kill and loot.

This gave Emperor Jiajing a problem.

If you don't send troops, you will be condemned by the world, and Emperor Jiajing will lose the hearts of the people in the Ming Dynasty. Maybe there will be a situation where the Ming Dynasty will rise up everywhere.

Send troops, just by virtue of the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, will they be the opponents of the steppe Tartars in the field? I'm afraid that as much as I go out, I will be destroyed. By that time, most of the army in the capital had gone out to drink the grassland coalition army to fight, and was finally wiped out by the grassland coalition army. Without soldiers, will the conservative capital be able to hold on?

At that time, the capital will definitely fall, and Emperor Jiajing and the hundred officials will definitely be slaughtered.

Emperor Jiajing's brows furrowed deeply, and Emperor Jiajing, who had a resolute personality, couldn't help but hesitate at this time, looking at Luo Xin and said:

"Luo Qing, do you have a good plan?"

"Yes!" Luo Xin nodded.

"Tell me!" Emperor Jiajing's expression was shocked.

"The only way is to completely defeat the grassland coalition army, so that they do not have the strength to dare to go deep into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, and can only escape back to the grassland."

Emperor Jiajing's face was stunned, and the hundred officials looked at Luo Xin in shock, and secretly said in their hearts:

"Is this Luo Xin crazy? Relying on the high walls of the capital, they were almost broken by the grassland coalition army, but Luo Xin wanted to take the initiative to attack, isn't this crazy? ”

Emperor Jiajing also felt ridiculous in his heart at this time, he felt that Luo Xin had never been defeated, and he was a little carried away, so he showed displeasure on his face and said:

"Luo Qing, war is not child's play!"

Admiral Yu on the side scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, he naturally knew what Luo Xin's idea was, this was a good time for him to make meritorious contributions. At this time, seeing the different eyes of the hundred officials and the displeased look of Emperor Jiajing, he couldn't help but forget the concept of hierarchy and said:

"Your Majesty, Lord Luo is sure!"

Emperor Jiajing was stunned, and looked at Luo Xin directly: "Luo Qing, are you sure?" ”

"Not sure!" Luo Xin shook his head.

Admiral Yu's face was black, the faces of the hundred officials were black, and Emperor Jiajing's face was even more ****:

"I'm not sure, what are you going to do with it?"

Luo Xin was silent for a while and said, "I am not completely sure. ”

Emperor Jiajing's breath was sluggish, and he said with some tears and laughter: "How sure are you? ”

Luo Xin said softly: "Your Majesty, if you compare the combat power of our army with the combat power of the grassland coalition army, the minister is not the slightest sure. In terms of combat capabilities, we are indeed no match for the steppe Tartars. ”

Admiral Yu's face darkened, but Luo Xin didn't pay attention to him, but pointed to the Ming soldiers who were above the city at this time and said:

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that if Huang Taiji wants to bypass the capital and go deep into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, he will act tomorrow. In other words, if you want to take the initiative, tonight is the last chance. Your Majesty, do you see that these soldiers in the city are still fighting power? ”

Emperor Jiajing and the eyes of the hundred officials all looked at the soldiers above the city, and saw that most of the soldiers were covered in blood at this time, lying on the top of the city and sleeping soundly. The faces of the hundred officials all showed gloomy colors, and Emperor Jiajing's face was also very ugly:

"Soldiers in this state go out to fight, it's better to let them die."

"Not bad!" Luo Xin nodded and said: "Your Majesty, what is the state of the Ming soldiers above the city, and what should be the state of the grassland tartars outside the city at this time, that is, they are stronger than our soldiers, and they are also limited." That is, the steppe Tartars do not have much combat power tonight. This made the minister have a certain certainty. ”

"Issei sure?" Emperor Jiajing smiled angrily and said: "The steppe Tartars are tired, but our army is also tired, where can we be sure?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister has also prepared a group of men, this force has not participated in the defense of the city, they are a real new force."

"Huh?" Emperor Jiajing raised his eyebrows: "Where did the army come from?" ”

"Divine Camp! There are 8,000 cavalry in the Shenshu battalion, and the ministers have not let them participate in the defense battle, and they are preparing for this day. With these 8,000 gods, the minister has two more points of certainty, so he has three percent of the point. ”

"Is it only 30% sure?"

Emperor Jiajing heard that the Eight Thousand Divine Pivot Camp had not moved, and he couldn't help but look forward to it, and the eyes of the hundred officials standing behind Emperor Jiajing looked at Luo Xin differently, and they secretly said in their hearts:

"This Luo Xin is really ruthless, not only ruthless enough to the enemy, but also ruthless enough to himself. The steppe Tartars attacked the city, but they still didn't use the Shenshu camp. ”

"Only 30%!" Luo Xin smiled bitterly: "After all, we have 8,000 cavalry here, and there are still 60,000 Tartars left. However, the minister also prepared more than 4,000 thunderbolts for the cavalry of the 8,000 Shenshu battalion, and with these more than 4,000 thunderbolts, the minister was 20% more sure, so the minister now has 50% certainty. ”

Emperor Jiajing's eyes lit up: "Luo Qing, you dared to cross the grassland with only 2,000 people, but now you have 8,000 cavalry, plus thunderbolts, is it only fifty percent sure that you can defeat the 60,000 tired soldiers outside?" ”

Luo Xin's face showed embarrassment, glanced at Admiral Yu who was looking forward to him, and said with difficulty:

"Your Majesty, those 2,000 cavalry are strong soldiers that Lord Ma has worked hard to train, and I don't know how many times I have fought with Lord Ma and the steppe Tartars before. And the Divine Camp ......"
