In the battle of Luoyang, Zhao Shujiao found that the rebels were not weaker than the defenders of Liaodong in defense on the first day of the attack. The army of Su Wang Zhu Zhihong is mainly composed of border troops, and they are also veterans who have defended the border for many years, and defending the city is their forte. And the new army is the attacking side, the previous formations are not used this time, and the biggest advantage of the new army over the rebels this time is the artillery advantage.

Zhao led the sect to work tentatively in Luoyang City for three days in a row, and the general situation of Luoyang City was almost touched. The situation of the defenders outside the city, Ma Shilong also felt the same.

"Your Majesty, the minister is ready to storm Luoyang City tomorrow." Zhao Shujiao asked.

"It's up to you. I still say the same thing, I just want the result. Zhu Youxiao said.

……

Just when Zhu Youxiao and the generals were deliberating, an urgent report came in, "Your Majesty, Kaipingwei is urgent, Huang Taiji personally led an army of 100,000 to approach Kaipingwei." ”

"Kaipingwei!?" Zhu Youxiao said in surprise, "Quickly submit the urgent report." ”

Zhu Youxiao quickly read the urgent report, slapped the table and said: "Lin Danhan is really a dou who can't be helped, and he actually fled without a fight." ”

"Your Majesty, Kaipingwei can't afford to lose, otherwise the Jingshi will be in danger." Ma Shilong said anxiously.

Zhu Youxiao remembered the battle of the Later Jin Dynasty to attack the Ming Dynasty in the history of Gyeonggi, and in October 1629, the Later Jin army broke through the pass from the Xifeng Pass in Jizhou, captured Zunhua, and approached the Beijing Division. Although the Later Jin failed to conquer the Jingshi in the end, they plundered the Guannei in all directions, conquered and sacked several cities, and the Later Jin Beyl Amin even slaughtered the city several times when he retreated. When the Houjin army withdrew, in order to humiliate the Ming Dynasty, the looted women were dressed up with heavy makeup along the way, and then displayed on the ox cart.

This battle had a great impact in history, that is, after this war, the Donglin Party who was reused by Chongzhen was suppressed again, and Zhou Yanru, Wen Tiren and others entered the cabinet.

"All Aiqing take a look at Xiong Dudu's recital, and see if Xiong Dudu's suggestion is feasible?" Zhu Youxiao handed Xiong Tingbi's recital to Ma Shilong and the others and asked.

"The minister thinks that for the sake of today's plan, only according to the strategy of Xiong Dudu, the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp must not move, if Houjin breaks into the pass, the Beijing division will have no soldiers available." Zhao Shujiao said first.

"Spread the decree, so that Sun Chengzong immediately sent troops to rescue Kaipingwei." Zhu Youxiao made an order.

Zhu Youxiao's army has no time to return to the division to rescue the Beijing division now, and even if he can return to the division, he can't return to the division, and now that the two armies are facing each other, if Zhu Youxiao takes the lead in evacuating, there will be endless troubles in the future.

"No."

"Spread the decree, order Chen Si to defend Kaipingwei, and never allow a single soldier of Houjin to enter the pass." Zhu Youxiao emphasized again. Zhu Youxiao knew the human virtue of Houjin, and once he entered the Guannei, he would definitely loot and even slaughter the city.

"No."

……

Hearing that Houjin was attacking Kaipingwei, Zhu Youxiao was in a bad mood to the extreme, and he had already calculated Houjin's robbery, but what he didn't expect was that Houjin would walk away from Pingwei, which caught him off guard.

"Your Majesty, is it not going well to attack the city today?" Zhang Yan asked softly.

On this expedition, Zhu Youxiao only brought Xiaoxiao and Zhang Yan. Zhu Youxiao originally planned to bring Xiaoxiao here, but Zhu Youxiao promised Xiaoxiao to go around to see it, which was of great help to her growth. And Zhang Yan was brought by Zhang Yan to Zhu Youxiao. As for Fan Huifei, she wanted to come with Zhu Youxiao, but she was rejected by Zhu Youxiao this time.

"The siege went very well." Zhu Youxiao said with a smile.

"Then why is the emperor worried?" Zhang Yan asked.

"It's a matter of Houjin." Zhu Youxiao said softly.

"Your Majesty, the concubine will give you a massage to relax, don't you often laugh and laugh for ten years?" Zhang Yan didn't ask any more.

"Hmm." Zhu Youxiao nodded.

Zhang Yan's massage technique was specially learned, this is the first craft she learned after entering the palace, Zhu Youxiao also likes to let Zhang Yan massage him, which also makes Zhang Yan's massage technique better and better.

"Your Majesty, the little girl asks to see you." At this time, it was reported.

"Biography."

"Knock on the emperor! Knock on the mother! Little Shi Li said.

"Excuse me, what's the matter with Xiaoxiao?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"Your Majesty, after I followed the emperor into Henan, I found that because of the war, there were many displaced people in Henan, and I wanted to use the name of Phoenix to help the displaced people." Trail.

"It's naturally good to give relief to the homeless, but the battle of Luoyang is not over yet, and I can't allocate food to give you relief." Zhu Youxiao said.

"I'm going to Kaifeng Mansion, and most of the displaced people in Henan have already gone to Kaifeng Mansion. Moreover, many wealthy merchants in Kaifeng Prefecture have stored grain. "Trail.

"Rich merchants may not sell it to you if they have grain in stock, and now that the war is in chaos, this war will not end, and the rich merchants will definitely hoard it." Zhu Youxiao analyzed.

"Huguang Province is very close to Henan, and it is a large province in terms of output, the emperor can order people to transfer grain from Huguang, as long as the news reaches Henan, Henan's grain prices will definitely fluctuate, once the first batch of grain from Huguang enters Henan, Henan's grain prices will definitely fall, and then the grain for the displaced people will definitely be enough." Trail.

"Yes, according to what you said, I will immediately send someone to assist you in purchasing grain from Huguang, but the transportation of grain will depend on you, and I really can't pull out people here." Zhu Youxiao nodded and said.

"The shopkeeper of Fengqiuhuang in Kaifeng Mansion is a big silk merchant, and he has the ability to transport a large amount of grain from Huguang." Trail.

"Spread the nourishment of nature." Zhu Youxiao said. Luo Yangxing is the son of Luo Sigong, and now he is the commander of Jinyiwei, and this time Zhu Youxiao specially asked Luo Yangxing to go with him.

Luo Yangxing quickly rushed to Zhu Youxiao's big tent, and Zhu Youxiao said to Luo Yangxing: "Xiaoxiao is going to Kaifeng Mansion to help the victims, and you send a team of brocade guards to protect Xiaoxiao's safety." ”

"No."

……

The scale of Fengqiuhuang may not be comparable to that of the United East India Company of the Netherlands, but it is definitely one of the top three companies in this era in terms of profitability, and Fengqiuhuang can rely on its own strength to help the displaced people in Henan.

As for whether Xiaoxiao can succeed, Zhu Youxiao doesn't care too much, if he can succeed, of course, it is the best, which exempts Zhu Youxiao from the next relief to the displaced people in Henan, if it can't succeed, Xiaoxiao can also learn a lot of knowledge that she can't learn in her daily life through this relief. For Zhu Youxiao, what is more important is that Xiaoxiao has a sense of public welfare.

After receiving Zhu Youxiao's support, Xiaoxiao immediately set out to help the homeless. She first sent people to Huguang to buy grain, and now the Imperial Bank is available all over the country, and those who go to buy grain only need to carry the Imperial Bank's silver ticket. And Xiaoxiao himself went to Kaifeng Mansion in person to contact the grain transportation.
