Chongzhen Huanxi's hands and feet didn't know how to move, although he knew about the victory of Songshan earlier, even the slave chieftains Azig and Abatai have now become the slaves of the ancestors, serving the ancestors in the Taiji Palace.

In the subsequent Battle of Xingshan Tashan, Chongzhen also got the news of the victory from the ancestor. It's just that this Jinzhou victory, Chongzhen has been busy playing Tai Chi with his courtiers for the past few days, and he hasn't had time to ask the ancestor for peace, so he didn't get any news from the ancestor.

At this time, the news of a great victory suddenly came from Jinzhou, especially the death of Huang Taiji, which was even more exciting than Hong Chengchou's annihilation of the 50,000 army of Jiannu, and made Chongzhen even more happy.

"Good! Good! Good! Ladies and gentlemen, please get up, the slave chief Taiji is killed! Jiannu's vitality was greatly damaged, which was the blessing of the Ming Dynasty. Zhou Aiqing, the merit reward of Jinzhou's great victory, can Aiqing have a charter? ”

Zhou Yanru stood up, and said with a slight groan: "Your Majesty, at this time, we only know the victory in Jinzhou, the specific battle report, whether to wait for Inspector Hong to pass on the report of the victory, before we can give rewards according to the merits of the generals." ”

Chongzhen nodded, suppressing the unbearable joy in his heart: "In this way, according to what Aiqing said, after Hong Aiqing's performance arrives, I will reward it according to the merits." Ladies and gentlemen, if there is nothing else, I will retire today. ”

……

Shanxi, Datong, guard Jiang Xuan's house.

"Master, there is a distinguished guest in the house, and he has been arranged by his wife to wait for the master in the wing room for a long time."

As soon as Jiang Hao returned to the house, the housekeeper in the house came over and whispered to Jiang Hao. Jiang Hao frowned, thought about it for a while, couldn't think of where it would be a distinguished guest, and seeing that the housekeeper didn't tell him, the housekeeper must not know where the distinguished guest came from, so he nodded and said:

"Well, please come to the atrium and serve tea."

After a while, the housekeeper led a middle-aged man in, saw Jiang Jiu, and gave a military salute: "The last general, Cao Yongshu, the guard of the Son of Heaven, has seen General Jiang." ”

Jiang Hao was stunned, the Son of Heaven Guard? Which army is this? Does the Ming have this army? Jiang Hao had doubts in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face and said, "It turned out to be General Cao, please sit down, butler, serve tea." ”

After Cao Yongshu sat down, he looked at the housekeeper of Jiang Mansion, but he didn't say a word. Jiang Hao understood, waved his hand and ordered the housekeeper to withdraw. Cao Yongshu looked upright at this time, took out a letter from his bosom, handed it to Jiang Jiu, and said:

"General Jiang, on the orders of the Governor of Jiliao, Inspector Hong, and the general of the Son of Heaven Guard, the last general led the Thousand and Five Sons of Heaven Guards to Datong yesterday evening, and is now camping ten miles north of Datong City.

Along with the last general, there is still General Wu Sangui, the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, who led 5,000 Guanning iron cavalry, and has camped ten miles south of the east city and west city of Datong City.

Passed the order of the Governor of Daming Jiliao, the Governor of the Great Ming Dynasty, and the General of the Guards of the Great Tomorrow, General Jiang, the general of Datong, led the Datong defenders out of the city, and the defense of Datong was temporarily taken over by the Son of Heaven Guards and Guanning Iron Cavalry. ”

Jiang Huang, who had quickly read the letter, was furious: "General Cao, Datong is not under the jurisdiction of the Governor of Jiliao, and the last general has never heard of the Son of Heaven Guard. I beg your pardon for not being able to obey Inspector Hong's orders. ”

Cao Yongshu smiled and said: "The Son of Heaven Guards is an army personally formed by the emperor, and the selected soldiers are all palace attendants, which directly belong to the emperor. The leader of the Guards, General Fang, was previously the chief of ceremonies. Before the last general joined the Guards, he was in charge of the pen. General Jiang, this time the Guards and the Guanning Iron Cavalry are on the same line, and the order is issued by the palace, but the general wants to disobey? ”

Jiang Hao gasped, sat back in his chair, and looked at Cao Yongshu in disbelief. Cao Yongshu smiled: "Not long ago, my Son of Heaven Guards were in Songshan outside the Guan, captured the slave chieftains Azig and Abatai, and drove the slave chieftains Zierharang into the mountains in Xingshan. Later, he joined forces with Hongdushi, and outside the city of Jinzhou, he killed the slave chieftain Taiji, captured the slave chieftain Yuetuo and Haoge, and captured and killed a total of 100,000 troops of Jiannu.

General Jiang, does your Datong army have the combat power of Jiannu? Do you want to see if my Son of Heaven Guards and Guanning Iron Cavalry can enter Datong and escort General Jiang into Beijing for questioning? ”

Although Datong has heard of the war outside the border, he does not know the specific war situation. Even now, Datong doesn't know if the war on the front line of Jinzhou outside the border has ended.

But thinking about this general of the Guards surnamed Cao, there is no need to lie. And listening to what the general surnamed Cao said, the Son of Heaven Guards turned out to be an army built by the emperor himself, and the combat power was so fierce, they all captured several Jiannu chieftains, what do they want to do when they come to Datong now?

"Please forgive the last general for being lonely and unheard, I don't know if the Son of Heaven Guards turned out to be built by the emperor himself? General Cao, please forgive me. As stated in the letter of Inspector Hong, let the last general take all the Datong defenders out of the city, but I don't know why? ”

Cao Yongshu looked at Jiang Jiu, who nodded, proudly, and was not afraid that the surnamed Jiang would leak the news. The current Datong has been surrounded by the Guards and the Guanning Iron Cavalry. Even if those Jin merchants who were through slaves got the news, they couldn't escape the pursuit of the guards and the Guanning Iron Cavalry.

"General Jiang, this time the Guards and the Guanning Iron Cavalry blockaded Datong for the merchants of Tongnu in Datong Mansion. To be honest, in addition to Datong, Zhangjiakou was also blocked. And the blockade of Zhangjiakou is none other than Hong Chengchou, the governor of Jiliao in the Ming Dynasty, and General Fang Zhenghua, the leader of my Son of Heaven's Guard.

General Jiang, all the merchants, fields, mansions, and workshops belonging to the Fan Yongdou Fan family, Wang Dengku Wang family, Huang Yunfa Huang family, and other eight families in Datong Mansion must be killed one by one, hunt down all the thieves who are through the slaves, count all the property, and escort them to the capital by the guards and the Guanning Iron Cavalry.

And the heads of these eight families must be escorted into Beijing. As for those who are implicated, they will be imprisoned and confiscated at the worst, and at worst, they will be convicted of the same crime as the thieves of the eight slaves, and they will be escorted to Beijing and punished by Ling Chi. General Jiang, I hope that the general will be clean and clean in Datong and not be implicated. ”

Jiang Hao only felt a chill on his back, and cold sweat broke out involuntarily. Wiping the sweat on his forehead, Jiang Hao said with a dry smile: "General Cao said that he laughed, the last general is the general of the Datong Mansion of the Ming Dynasty, and he is loyal to the emperor, how can he be willing to fall and join the thieves." The last general didn't know that there were so many slave thieves in Datong Mansion, and the last general was derelict in his duties, so he should ask the emperor for his guilt. ”

Cao Yongshu nodded with a smile and said: "This general also believes in General Jiang's innocence, and the most important thing at the moment is to take your Datong defenders out of the city according to the orders of Inspector Hong and General Fang." After all, although General Jiang is innocent, but your subordinates, or some innocent people, in order to avoid accidentally escaping the thieves of Tongnu, General Jiang still took these defenders and entered the camp of the guards. ”

Jiang Hao sighed in his heart, and could only follow what Cao Yongshu said, gathered the defenders of Datong Mansion, and went out of the city into the camp of the guards to be temporarily guarded by the guards.

At the same time, Cao Huachun, who came from the capital, also entered Datong Mansion with 5,000 Dongchang fans. As soon as Cao Yongshu saw Cao Huachun, he immediately ran over happily, knelt in front of Cao Huachun and shouted:

"Godfather, did the emperor send you to Datong Mansion as well? It's good now, with the godfather in charge, the son is relaxed this time. ”

Cao Huachun was also pleased with Cao Yongshu, and pulled Cao Huachun up and scolded with a smile: "You little monkey, you have been greatly cultivated by the ancestors and become the general of the Guards, why are you still so lazy." The defenders of Datong Mansion are all watched? ”

Some historical books say that when Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, entered the city of Beijing, it was the city that Cao Huachun opened the city gate. However, after Zhu Yunwen checked a lot of literature, he knew that this was Cao Huachun's back from the black cauldron.

When the thief Li Zicheng entered Beijing, Cao Huachun's people were still at the mouth of Tianjin, and it was impossible for them to fly back to the capital to open the city gate and offer the city. When Zhu Yunwen asked Chongzhen to reorganize Jinyiwei and Dongchang, he asked Cao Huachun to take the selected 5,000 Dongchang fans into the world of Dongtianzhu and conduct modern military training.

Originally, Zhu Yunwen also wanted to give Cao Huachun a limb resurrection pill, but Cao Huachun didn't want to be a normal person again, and wanted to keep the body of a eunuch and serve the emperor Chongzhen.

Zhu Yunwen was grateful for Cao Huachun's loyalty, and thought that in some film and television works in later generations, Cao Huachun was mostly a big boss with strong martial arts, so he followed Cao Huachun's wishes, only improved Cao Huachun's lifespan, and helped Cao Huachun strengthen his body and taught a set of physical exercises.

Now, don't look at Cao Huachun's old appearance, but the organs in his body are as energetic as those of a young man in his twenties. Thirty or fifty ordinary big men are not his opponents at all.

"Jiang Hao is quite obedient, and with the defenders of Datong Mansion, he has entered the camp of my guards. Godfather, it's still early, why don't you do it now? ”

Cao Huachun heard Cao Yongshu say this, looked up at the sky, nodded and said, "Well, you sent someone to inform General Wu Sangui to keep an eye on the road outside Datong Mansion to prevent anyone from escaping." Whoever comes, from now on, Datong Mansion is allowed to enter but not to leave, and the Guards and Dongchang belong to the thief who is arrested according to the list......"

All of a sudden, the whole Datong Mansion was in turmoil, and the people looked at the teams of Dongchang Fanzi in horror, rushing into the city, and rushing into countless businesses......
