As soon as the Shanhaiguan Pass is broken, the Ming Dynasty is in danger! When the news reached Beijing, the court panicked! Chongzhen was stunned!

Fortunately, Killing Feng and Dongfang Wenbai were still calm, and immediately said that Chongzhen summoned the ministers to discuss countermeasures!

The Ming court discussed for a morning, and finally there were two theories, fighting to the death; Or move south to the old capital!

Both of these statements make a lot of sense, but it's too risky to do either alone! What to do?

When the government and the opposition were messing around, a secret letter was sent to the main hall, saying that it was a secret letter, except that no one knew the content of the letter, and even the sender was a guard, but he was on duty and hurriedly sent it to Chongzhen. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Report! A letter is issued on the city gate dragon rock! "The guards don't dare to slack off.

Everyone was shocked, this Longyan is not an ordinary person, this secret letter must be strange!

"Bring it up!" Chongzhen said eagerly.

Wang Chengen hurriedly went down to take the letter to Chongzhen, Wang Chengen got the letter and looked at it, his face was shocked, but in this noisy and panicked hall, only Killing Wind noticed the expression on Wang Chengen's face! Killing Feng concluded that Wang Chengen must know this letter!

Chongzhen hurriedly opened it and took a look! It's a kind of déjà vu handwriting, but I can't say it for a while! He didn't think much about it, reading the content, and being surprised as he watched, "What? ”

Seeing Chongzhen's expression in the court, he was also looking forward to the answer!

"Your Majesty?" Murderous wind squirted.

"Great! That's great! The green dragon is still alive! As soon as Chongzhen's words came out, the court was shocked!

"Your Majesty? Is this true?! Suzaku asked impatiently.

Chongzhen nodded, "This letter says that after Zu Dashou rebelled, Qinglong avoided his edge in time and withdrew from Ningyuan from the side gate, and led 50,000 Ningyuan defenders to go deep into the sea and land on Juehua Island near Ningyuan......"

"Juehua Island? Back then, when I chased and killed the rebels, I did hear about this island, and it is said that its strategic position is no less than that of Ning Yuan! Killing Feng said excitedly, he can lead his troops to take refuge on Juehua Island, except for Zhu Qing, I am afraid that no one will have a strategy from this, and the words of Killing Wind make the Ming court monarchs and ministers more convinced of the authenticity of this letter!

"Guard, who sent this letter? Possibly found? "To be on the safe side, Killing Wind personally asked the guard who delivered the letter.

However, the guard shook his head again and again, "I haven't seen it, I haven't found it, and those who can go to Longyan are definitely not ordinary people!" ”

When everyone heard this, they nodded.

"You stand down first!" Chongzhen waved at the guards.

"Retire from your duties!"

Qinglong is still alive, which is excellent news for both Ming Court and Chongzhen, especially at such a difficult time.

"The letter also said that Qinglong hopes to fight the Qing army in Shanhaiguan with the imperial court...... Chongzhen still read it unfinished, but when he read this, the joy on his face suddenly disappeared.

All the ministers knew that this was a good plan, but now it is impossible to realize, because the Shanhai Pass was broken, and the 800,000 defenders were disintegrated overnight, in order to retreat safely, Liu Qingfeng made a wrong decision to disperse and retreat! Although the speed is fast, it is clear that there are many people who have gone and never returned!

The Qing army has broken through the mountain customs and entered the fish, how can it still attack back and forth? !

Chongzhen put the letter on the desk in frustration and exhaled heavily, "What should I do now?" ”

The ministers were immediately asked, but no one dared to answer.

After a long time, Dongfang Wenbai admonished, "Your Majesty, since Qinglong is still alive and there are still 50,000 soldiers in his hands, if he can make a fuss in the rear of the Qing army, he will definitely be able to solve the urgent needs of the capital, but how to inform Qinglong, this is a big problem!" ”

It is temporarily impossible to flank the front and back, and now that Dolgon has reorganized the army and is ready to move to Beijing at any time, it would be good to be able to hold on, how can he still flank the attack?

Therefore, Dongfang Wenbai's strategy of encircling Wei and saving Zhao is really eye-catching.

Chongzhen's sad face was temporarily brushed away, and he smiled and said, "Good plan!" That general is willing to go and report to Qinglong?! "Obviously, Chongzhen has already agreed with Dongfang Wenbai's suggestion!

But when Chongzhen was recruiting soldiers with great expectations, there was silence in the court!

Chongzhen was naturally unhappy, and snorted coldly, "Why, in such a desperate situation, no warrior in my Ming Dynasty dares to take on this responsibility?!" ”

His Royal Highness's generals and ministers looked at each other, but they only whispered, and no one dared to step forward to receive orders. Obviously, this is a battle that changed fate, but how to change it is really hard to say, change it well, and since then it has been favored by the emperor and soared; If you don't change it well, on the way to die violently, you can't know if you throw your corpses in the wilderness!

It was when the atmosphere was tense, and he dared to speak, "Your Majesty, now that the army is pressing, every general is shouldering the burden of defending the city, if you send the general to Ningyuan at this moment, I am afraid that it will endanger the defense of the Beijing Division, but if you send a small soldier and a small general, it is definitely difficult to cross the Qing army's defense line, if you are caught, it is a small matter of losing your life, and you will not try to leak the military aircraft!" ”

After Chongzhen heard this, although he also understood the meaning, he was still dissatisfied and asked, "According to what you say, this information can't be sent?" This information can't be sent, so our monarchs and ministers will be able to fight to the death with the Qing army?! Chongzhen said angry words, but it was by no means the usual kind of dragon face anger, for Killing Wind, he naturally knew that Killing Wind would not easily oppose him, if there was a difference of opinion, there must be a reason.

Sure enough, Killing Feng smiled indifferently, "This capital has to be defended, but this information also has to be sent!" ”

"No one dares to go to the court, who will send it?" Chongzhen asked coldly.

Killing Feng shook his wheelchair and took a few steps forward, came to Wang Chengen's side, but turned to Chongzhen and said, "Your Majesty, if you can send a letter, you can send a letter!" ”

"However, the guards have said that it is not known who sent this letter, and how can it be delivered?" Chongzhen wondered.

"Not necessarily." Killing Wind smiled, and suddenly turned to Wang Chengen, "Father-in-law, Killing Wind dares to ask Father-in-law, when he just took the letter, why didn't Father-in-law know the content in his heart, why was his face already shocked?" Did my father-in-law see some clues? ”

Killing the wind, everyone looked at Wang Chengen, Wang Chengen suddenly became nervous, and when he was about to deny it, Chongzhen suddenly coughed coldly, "Cough!" Well? Princess, do you still want me to ask you to speak?! ”

Wang Chengen couldn't hide it when he knew this, so he had to smile and say, "The emperor ...... Your Majesty, in fact, our family is not too sure, but I just feel that the handwriting is like the handwriting of an old man, presumably the emperor should feel the same way...... "Wang Chengen is still very fine, under the gaze of everyone, he can also quietly transfer the problem to Chongzhen, it is really not simple."

Chongzhen was stunned, "Oh? When you say that, I feel the same way. Chongzhen muttered, and fell into thought.

Seeing that Chongzhen couldn't think hard, Wang Chengen reminded softly, "...... Cao? ”

When Chongzhen heard this, he was shocked, glanced at Wang Chengen, and nodded with a very complicated expression.

Undoubtedly, both of them thought of Cao Huachun, the great eunuch who committed suicide by throwing himself into a well a few years ago!

Earlier, it was rumored that Cao Huachun was still alive, so Wang Chengen also asked his disciple Ghost Fire to find it, but the matter was over, I didn't expect that today's letter would make these two people fall into surprise! It can be seen that Cao Huachun was disposed of by Chongzhen under the transfer of Wang Chengen.

Since he has guessed seven or eight points, then Chongzhen has the bottom in his heart, the current Ming Court is already chaotic enough, he will never let a living dead person stir up the situation again, so he said to the killing wind, "Those who can go to Longyan must be a master, and they are not visible to ordinary people, so why should the factory be embarrassed by the prince?" Chongzhen deliberately avoided Cao Huachun's topic.

Killing Feng was also very interesting, so he nodded and responded, "Weichen is stupid, my father-in-law has lived by the emperor's side for a long time, and in order to protect the emperor's safety, it is understandable to be vigilant against unknown things." Wechen sent others to look for it. ”

After Chongzhen heard this, he was very pleased, and even Wang Chengen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"Good! Whether it's going to Ningyuan, or looking for a messenger, who does Aiqing plan to send? Chongzhen asked.

Killing Wind swept around the hall, and his eyes fell on Suzaku.

Suzaku was overjoyed in his heart, and he was excited at the thought of being able to go to the front line to fight with Zhu Qing and them.

"Your Majesty, the last general is willing to accept his life!" Suzaku bowed to Chongzhen with great interest.

Chongzhen was taken aback, "You? You're gone, what should the queen do? What to do with the harem? ”

"Your Majesty, why don't you hand it over to Yan Shi Niang?" Killing Wind scrambled to suggest.

Chongzhen calmed down, he nodded slightly, "Shi Niang is the old man of Jinyiwei, it is said that she is at ease in doing things, but I am afraid that she will not be able to stand the coquettishness of the harem." "It seems that Chongzhen still knows these women very well!

"Your Majesty, for the safety of the queen and the harem, the last general will not give up!" At this time, Yan Shi Niang took the initiative to stand up!

After listening to Yan Shi Niang's personal statement, Chongzhen nodded, "Okay!" Then I ordered Suzaku to be the general of the urgency, went to Ningyuan to report the news, and ordered Yan Shi Niang to take over Suzaku to take charge of the security of the harem and protect the safety of the queen and the harem! ”

"The last will obey!" Suzaku and Yan Shi Niang knelt down at the same time!

"All the generals and ministers obey the order! From now on, the Ming Dynasty has entered a state of first-class combat readiness, and all armies north of the Yangtze River must return to the Beijing Division, guard the capital, and be ready to meet the enemy at any time! "Obviously, Chongzhen is going to defend Beijing!

"Your Majesty ......!" Lord Tian suddenly shouted, this time Lord Tian is not on the side of the main battle of Killing Wind and Dongfang Wenbai, but advocates moving the capital to Nanning, and then making a decision according to the Yangtze River natural insurance!

Unexpectedly, as soon as he spoke, he was stopped by Chongzhen.

"Make this decision for now! Tian Aiqing, Killing Feng, Dongfang Bai, the three of you stay, the others, retreat from the dynasty and prepare for city defense! Chongzhen said very decisively!

The ministers should know that the emperor has other plans, but these are not what they need to worry about, at this time, there can only be one backbone, and that is the emperor! Whether it's right or wrong, the emperor can only shoulder this heavy responsibility!

All the ministers retreated and left, only Lord Tian, Kill Feng and Dongfang Bai remained, and of course Wang Chengen and Suzaku, who usually followed the emperor.

"Suzaku, without further ado, you go now! Hurry up and find a way to contact Qinglong, don't slack off! Killing Wind ordered Suzaku.

"The last general commands!" Suzaku hugged his fists at Chongzhen and Killing Feng and the others and retreated, and then walked out of the hall with his sword!

After Suzaku left, Chongzhen sighed in front of the four ministers, "Da Ming is in danger!" ”

"Your Majesty! Aren't we working on it? We still have hope, Your Majesty! As long as we cross the Yangtze River and move the capital to Nanning, we will be able to recharge our energy and make a comeback! The first to speak was Lord Tian.

Killing Feng and Dongfang Wenbai both stood quietly and did not say a word.

Chongzhen sneered, "Comeback? Aiqing has ever known that in the history of my Ming Dynasty, I will not cede land, pay compensation, pay tribute, or make peace! Are you now asking me to abandon most of the Ming Dynasty and favor one side? What kind of face do I have to see my ancestors and ancestors? ”

Chongzhen's love was deep, and the corners of his eyes were red, and his voice was choked. When several ministers heard this, they were silent, and they didn't feel good in their hearts!

"However, the war must also leave a way out, Your Majesty!" Killing Feng finally said something, which surprised Lord Tian! The main battle is to kill the wind, and now the one who wants to retreat is also to kill the wind, what is the situation?

"Lord Killing Wind is right, it is the fate of soldiers to die on the battlefield, and the Ming soldiers are guarding Beijing, and it is their duty not to let the Qing army easily succeed. However, the emperor Sheng'an is the king of a country, and he can't stay and take risks, there are still soldiers when the soldiers die, and there will be no Ming when the emperor dies! "Dongfang Wenbai is really daring, he dares to even mention death in front of the emperor!

However, Chongzhen didn't mean to blame at all, but nodded and said with relief, "Those who know me should wait!" That's right, Daming's dragon vein is unbreakable! However, the capital is not to be lost! 'The Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies! 'I vow to live and die with the capital!' Chongzhen paced back and forth a few steps, and suddenly looked up to the sky and smiled! Death is like home!

"Your Majesty!" Several ministers suddenly knelt on the ground!

"No, Your Majesty! You don't go! This dragon vein ......"

"Take the prince and the princes away! I'm here to stay! Chongzhen said firmly!

"But ......"

"No, I've made up my mind! If you want to disobey the order, you can't do it?! Chongzhen shouted angrily.

"Don't dare!" Several ministers had no choice but to bow their heads and respond, but tears had already oozed from their eyes!

"Alright, get up! The matter of moving south will be taken care of by Lord Tian himself, and I will let the queen Zhang Luo with you and set off early! The affairs of the guards are in charge of Killing Wind, and I want to ensure that the people who move south are unscathed! Chongzhen sighed and drank again.

"Command!"

Chongzhen nodded, "You all stand down!" I want to be alone and quiet. ”

"Your Majesty ......?" Several people were worried that Chongzhen would not be able to think about it, so they wanted to dissuade them.

Chongzhen didn't speak again, just waved his hand, and walked to the back garden, Wang Chengen nodded with the three ministers, and hurriedly followed.
