Li Ming listened to Lin Hua's words, smiled and said, "In this case, Lao Lin, you can get in touch with the intelligence station in the city as soon as possible." After all, this is in Daming, and if you can not bleed, you will not bleed. Otherwise, we could have destroyed hundreds or thousands of defenders of the capital in an instant. ”

When he said this, he suddenly remembered something, turned to Lin Hua and said, "Lao Lin, do you know if the person in the city who contacted you is the master of the Ming Dynasty." ”

Lin Hua smiled, and then said: "The person from the city is a Ming army commander guarding Desheng Gate in Beijing. He said that he was approached by the order of Zhang Jinyan, the secretary of the Ming Military Department. ”

Before Li Ming could speak, Song Tao next to him laughed and said, "Haha...... I know this person, it is said that when Li Zicheng attacked Beijing, it was this guy who opened the Zhengyang Gate to lure the thief into the palace. But he found that Li Zicheng was not going to give him an official and wanted to find a reason to kill him, so he fled back to his hometown. Later, he didn't know how to contact King Fu of Nanming in Nanjing, and lied that he had gathered volunteers in his hometown, so King Fu was appointed governor of Hebei, Shanxi, and Henan military affairs.

Duoduo led the Qing army to pacify Henan and Jiangnan, and Zhang Jinyan fled in the Shangma Mountains of Lu'an Prefecture. After three years of Shunzhi, the desperate Zhang Jinyan surrendered to Hong Chengchou, and after nine years of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty, Zhang Jinyan successively served as the political envoy of Shandong Youbu and the political envoy of Zhejiang. In June of the seventeenth year of Shunzhi, he was arrested and imprisoned for "literary prison", and in November his family property was confiscated and exiled to Ningguta. In the end, he never returned to the Central Plains and died in the wild land of Ningguta. ”

Everyone listened to his words, and their faces were full of emotion. Daming, these scholars, if you want to say that there are people with integrity, but there are more people like Zhang Jinyan.

The so-called "usually talk about the heart with your hands, and protect the king when you die", Donglin's true colors. The Donglin Party implements the "sleeve and heart-to-heart talk" to the end, and there are no impurities at all, but when it is the turn to use the next sentence, it is not so appropriate.

After Li Zicheng entered Beijing, a large number of Donglin Party officials rushed to become Dashun's officials. Later, the Manchu Qing Dynasty won the world, and more scholars and bureaucrats threw themselves into the arms of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and willingly became slaves.

Li Ming shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Anyway, they surrendered to us at this time, and were willing to open the gates of Beijing to lead the army into the city, so as to avoid the disaster of swords and soldiers in Beijing City, are they still meritorious heroes?" Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "good birds choose trees to perch, and virtuous ministers choose their masters and things", and everyone has the right to choose to open up a new life. Therefore, after we enter the city, we must treat the Ming Dynasty ministers who support us with courtesy. ”

Song Tao smiled when he heard this: "Dude, when our Far Eastern Army enters the city, I estimate that the group of Donglin gentlemen in the city may not be ashamed." ”

Li Ming pointed at Song Tao with his finger and scolded with a smile: "This can only be said here, you can't mention it again when you enter the city, and you can't show people a look." After all, people not only opened the city of Beijing, but also supported the leadership of our Far East, we can't be like Li Zicheng, someone helped him open the city gate, but after he entered the city, he unloaded the mill and killed the donkey, how can this win the trust of others. ”

Lin Hua smiled and said, "Then I'll go and get in touch with the intelligence station in the city now to determine the time for the general attack of the troops." Commander, do you have any other instructions? ”

Li Ming waved his hand and said, "It's just to attack this paper-paste Beijing city, do you need to put so much effort into it?" Lao Lin, you will work hard in this battle, take full responsibility, I will not participate. ”

Zhao Lianhe rode on a war horse and led a platoon of officers and soldiers to patrol the suburbs of Beijing. Because the Northwest Field Army has newly formed two new cavalry divisions, many non-commissioned officers and cadres have been transferred from the Fifth Cavalry Division where he is located, because he has excellent performance in peacetime and is relatively senior in the platoon, so he was promoted to platoon sergeant major.

After the launch of the Central Plains Campaign, his Fifth Cavalry Division broke through the border wall of the Ming Dynasty, swept through the town of Xuanfu, and fought all the way to the city of Beijing with lightning speed, quickly swept the periphery of Beijing City, and has been stationed until now.

After coming to the city of Beijing, Zhao Lianhe's platoon was stationed outside the city, and the officers and soldiers had to stay in tents every day, waiting for orders at any time, which was very boring.

Fortunately, their platoon had to carry out a patrol every three days, and there was basically no situation during the patrol, and the soldiers had the right to relax outside Beijing.

"Sergeant Major, when we break through the city of Beijing, will we be able to patrol the city on horseback every day? Hey...... I feel majestic when I think about it, alas...... I don't know when to attack. ”

The person who spoke was Wang Liu, and he was a recruit who had just enlisted in the army. It's a self-cooked character.,And it's still a chatter.。 No matter who he meets, no matter whether people want to listen to it or not, he is like a Tang monk with endless ink.

A group of soldiers in the queue had all been poisoned by Wang Liu, so everyone talked about him.

"Little Liu, patrolling the city is a veteran's errand, you recruit don't have a chance, don't think about good things......"

"You kid is so careful, who doesn't know, you want to show off in front of the little lady in Beijing......"

"Sixth son, have you grown all your hair, won't you still be a chick, haha...... In a few days, Uncle will take you to see and see......"

Wang Liu's face was flushed by a group of soldiers, and he hurriedly defended: "You guys are talking nonsense, I didn't think about it at all......

But it's okay if he doesn't defend himself, the more he argues, the louder everyone's laughter becomes, which makes Wang Liu's grievances almost cry.

Zhao Lianhe was also amused by everyone, he turned his head and scolded with a smile: "Okay...... Don't bully Xiaoliu, you see you're all about to make this kid cry, haha...... Little Liu, don't cry, they're teasing you......"

"Sergeant Major...... There is a case in front ......"

Suddenly, the first few cavalrymen in the team turned around and shouted at Zhao Lianhe, Zhao Lianhe's eyes were fixed, and he hurriedly beat his horse, leading the whole platoon of soldiers to speed up and rush forward.

Dozens of war horses galloped at full speed, and the momentum was also very terrifying. They ran on the country road for a while, and caught up with a group of Ming people outside a wood.

These people, both old and young, seem to be relatives of the same family. Among them were several good-looking women and a few children of several years old.

They looked at the dozens of fierce cavalry around them, they were all pale with fright, trembling all over, and involuntarily knelt on the ground and kowtowed desperately.

Several children were also frightened and cried loudly, and the women hurriedly pressed the children's mouths with their hands, and the children's faces were pinched and distorted.
