Not to mention that the Qin army went out of the pass in a big way and went straight to the city of Beijing, anyway, the current Beijing division may not be able to wait for the Qin army to come to the rescue, because as the dignitaries and dignitaries in the city of Beijing fled, those soldiers who stayed in the Beijing camp also followed suit, they didn't have the heart to fight anyway, and the 100,000 taels of silver urgently allocated by the imperial treasury had long been less than two or three of them left by those who were greedy for ink. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Sometimes when we look back at these so-called dirty things, it is not difficult to find that in fact, people's hearts are particularly important in any period.

However, since most of the soldiers in Beijing can only live the life of the lower class, and the family is quite poor, so there is no extra silver and food to support them to flee, so except for a small number of people who can take out the silver to escape, the rest can only discard their weapons and go home to stay, and no matter what they hold on to the city, what does it have to do with them?

That's it, the city defense is even more empty, and even a dozen people are sparsely guarded hundreds of steps away from a section of the city wall, but at a glance at their weak appearance, anyone knows that this battle will be fought here, as long as Kong Youde's army arrives, the Beijing division should change hands.

"Hey, you also tell me, our general flag to the small flag have run away, listen to them, those officials have also run away, what are we still doing here?" Wang Futian is a soldier of the three major battalions of the Beijing camp, and he has been a soldier for more than ten years, and he should have gone home a long time ago, but later because of the lack of soldiers, he dragged him back and continued to eat with a knife, and guarded the gate of the Beijing Division, and he worked for a lifetime.

But he didn't save any money, without him, Li Min, who came and went in Beijing, who knows whose relationship is what, and those merchants, whose background is not hard? He is staying here, who else can he bully except for the neighboring people? The total amount of silver he gets all year round is only three or five taels, thanks to which his daughter-in-law can still sew and mend and do some small work for large families, barely able to subsidize the family, but it is unlikely that he wants to be rich.

"How do I know what I'm doing here, but keep it, anyway, we don't have a place to go, so we just stay like this, waiting for the city to change its flag." The little soldier next door who stayed with him answered a little boringly, only to see that he was sitting directly on the city wall at the moment, with his back against the wall, and the rusty waist knife was also thrown aside.

"On this day, there is nothing to look forward to, just waiting for the king outside the city to enter the city, and we will also take off our clothes and go as good citizens, Daming, there is no help." Seeing this situation, Wang Futian threw away the spear in his hand, and sat beside him by the way, just looking at the place where Lao Tzu, the emperor of the Forbidden City, lived.

"Tell me, what the emperor is going to do." It's boring to just guard the city gate like this, it's better to find something to talk about, as for the topic that I didn't dare to say in the past, I dare now, anyway, this section of the city wall looks like it's just the two of them, and everyone else can run away, if it weren't for his two cowardices, maybe he would go home now.

"What else can I do, maybe I ran away, anyway, it has nothing to do with us, the military salary has not been paid for two months, I heard what Chen Baihu's family next door said, the silver has been divided from above, but fortunately, the loss has not been divided, you must know, the last time I took the silver, even my life was lost in Tongzhou, look at my arm, I was whipped, I can't live or die, I have to lose this, so I didn't die." Zhang Faxiao said happily that last time his mother-in-law complained that he didn't make money if he had money.

"Who said it wasn't, I was almost moved by the opening fee of five taels of silver per person, but fortunately, when I am old, people don't look down on the generals, otherwise I can't mean that my family should have a funeral now." Wang Futian listened to the crying sound coming from the city gate, and his mood suddenly began to be low, after all, a few days ago, these people were still standing with them chatting, but now they even lost their lives in Tongzhou.

"If you want me to say, these eight lambs were not good to us at all before, but now, if we want to work hard, but only give a little silver, isn't this asking for people's lives? Five taels of silver were in hand, and one or two were deducted, and the rest was not enough to buy a coffin for themselves, these dogs are only worthy of eating chaff. Chen Faxiao spat hatefully at the place where the commander was sitting directly above the city gate tower.

"Shh~ Be quiet, if you are seen by the city patrol, you will not be able to escape from a military treatment." Wang Futian looked at it cautiously, fortunately, no one heard it, otherwise it would be troublesome.

"Afraid of what?" Chen Faxiao glanced at him disdainfully, "Next door to me is a hundred households of Jinyiwei, my mother-in-law often goes to his house to work, but I have heard that now everything that can run is almost gone, and the rest is just waiting for death. ”

"Anyway, there is a large army in the northwest, some people have been scared back before they get out of the city, many people are now running to Tianjin, I heard that there are still cavalry of the Ning army over there, and they can block the offensive of the rebels." Wang Futian bowed his head mysteriously and whispered, but soon he shut up, because the small flag Mengshan, who was temporarily arranged on this section of the city wall, came, after all, the other party was an official, and they were just ordinary soldiers.

"Okay, okay, I said you two don't pretend, I saw you two lazy here from afar, don't stand, sit down and talk to me," Looking at the two soldiers who got up from the ground and stood upright, Xiaoqi Mengshan suddenly laughed, but he didn't come to arrest military discipline, no matter what these people do, what do they care about him.

"You really don't want to catch it?" Chen Faxiao was clever after all, and immediately blurted out.

"I really don't catch it! I don't look at what time it is, catch an egg, those who have the ability have run away now, and no one cares about us. As soon as Meng Shan exited, he brought definite news to the two, at least what Meng Shan knew was that his guard had run away from 100 households, in other words, on the side of Xizhimen, he was such a small flag, and he could be counted as not running.

"Xiaoqi, tell me, is there a way out for us to be mixed? If I had any money, I would have to run with it, and I heard that many people in the camp followed the boat from Tianjin Wei to Jiangnan, is it true? Wang Futian sighed, and then asked silently.

"Why isn't it true, but now I go to Jiangnan, it's not done, the court also discussed it a few days ago, but it's a pity that our grandfather doesn't speak, and there are no soldiers and horses in Beijing to escort him along the way, this saint doesn't dare to go, and it drags on to this day, anyway, it's no fun, everyone is waiting for the Qin army to send troops to save it." Meng Shan shook his head and said, but these have nothing to do with him, no matter which side comes in, he can only surrender obediently.

It is not even an exaggeration to say that as long as there is an army to the side of Xizhimen now, then he will definitely lose his weapon and surrender immediately, as for what resistance, for whom to resist? In the current situation, it is best to be able to save your life and survive, and then take care of your family by the way, as for working for the court, it is not impossible, but at least you have to give the silver first.

"Xiaoqi, why don't we run too, this day is no longer possible, if we wait for the enemy to come, we are at the wall, won't we die faster?" Chen Faxiao was a little scared when he heard that the emperor wanted to run, and the little flag who was in charge of guarding and supervising them was also in this tone, and he immediately asked nervously.

"Run? Where are you going? You don't look like a man with money, so where can you go? Now there is a shortage of soldiers outside, there are wars everywhere, I heard that Kong Youde came from the hometown of Confucius and Mencius, and almost killed everyone, if we go out and fall into their hands, it is amazing, it is not good, even our lives cannot be saved. Monsan sighed and said, but what could he do, who didn't want to defend his homeland.

But there are tens of thousands of soldiers in the entire Beijing camp, no one to command, every camp now does not even have a living person, all the ones who can run are finished, and the rich take the silver and take their families out of the city to run directly to the west, I heard that the Qin army is benevolent and righteous, and is polite to ordinary people, and does not kill people indiscriminately, anyway, Lin Lin has said a lot, there are all kinds of things, there are all kinds of things, and there are those who say that the fields are divided, but when it reaches the ears of Meng Shan, I don't believe it very much, how can there be a court in this world that takes the initiative to divide the land for the people of Limin, that must be a lie.

"Yes, we don't have any money, and we can't run away if we want to, forget it, Xiaoqi, or let's go back, it's useless to stay here." Wang Futian couldn't hold it anymore, anyway, he didn't have much hope, so he might as well go home and stay.

"Stupid you, we are guarding here, waiting for the people to come, directly throw away the knife and gun, surrender can still be an errand in the new dynasty, at least you can mix a skin, the new dynasty and the new atmosphere, you should always give us a bite to eat, so as not to starve us to death, right? If we go back, we can't make sure that the soldiers of the new dynasty come up and loot all over the city, then what should we do? Meng Shan glanced at him angrily, he didn't go home, it was because of this that he was ready to take refuge in the incoming enemy army, and then changed his skin to protect his family.

"Yes, yes, yes~ That's the reason, we don't have any skills, and we can only stand on the city wall and guard, if we run back, when the city is broken, we may not be bullied, so let's wait." Chen Faxiao nodded like a chicken pecking rice, but soon, what he feared and looked forward to arrived.

"The east gate is shouting and killing, isn't this a rebel siege?" Suddenly hearing the sound of earth-shattering cannons, Monsan turned over and looked at the east gate and didn't know what they were thinking, although they once wanted to let the rebels enter the city quickly and settle their worries, but now that the matter is coming, they have retreated a little.

There are many people who choose to do the same as him, and those who can still struggle to get up on the wall of the West Gate are looking far away, after all, this is a matter of life and death for their own families......

"Master Hou, Kong Youde's army has arrived, and it is firing artillery at our front army, General Zu Dale sent someone to ask, what should I do?" A cavalryman of the Guanning Army rode back shortly after the cannon sounded to report, while Zu Dashou and a large number of Guanning generals such as Wu Fei were waiting nervously at the camp gate.

"Hmph, this hole thief, now that he is full of momentum and his wings are stiff, he actually dares to fight with us hard, and the order is to go down, all the armies are on alert, and watch our Chinese army act." Zu Dashou commanded in a deep voice, and then quickly turned back to Wu Pai and said, "You take people to walk from the east to see if you can beat him, if the arrogance of this hole thief does not continue, it will be difficult for us to wait for the Qin army to converge." ”

"Okay, I'll take someone to go immediately, just wait for your order to arrive, and I'll send someone to kill him immediately." Wu Pai is not easy to mess with, at least now that the Guan Ning Army and the Dongjiang rebels are on the same footing, he definitely doesn't want to back down half a step, whoever retreats will die!

"Come on, beat the drums and reorganize the army, let's go!" Zu Dashou can fight with Houjin for so many years and still stand, it is enough to prove his special authority in the Guanning military system, as soon as this statement came out, the remaining generals took action, and soon, the soldiers of each army began to assemble out of the camp under the loud reprimand of the generals, a full 22,000 men and horses, of which about half are cavalry, these are the main forces of the Guanning army, even if they really move, Kong Youde may not be able to swallow them in one bite.

"It seems that the Guan Ning army can't sit still, and orders the artillery array to move forward ten steps to defeat their front army for me. In his opinion, as long as he seizes the Beijing division and controls the emperor, then he can wage war against the Qin army in three directions at the same time, occupy the world from now on, and change the dynasty.

And at this time, he also did the same, if he could really seize the advanced city to control Chongzhen, and issue an edict to let the world's soldiers and horses besiege the Qin army, it may not be impossible, at least Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng's orders to him will be considered, the strong combat effectiveness of the Qin army is pressed on them, and no one can face it alone.

"Poof~" So, the artillery array of the Qi army advanced again, directly approaching the camp that attacked Zu Dale, this time, the Guan Ning army suddenly couldn't sit still, Zu Dale was even ready to personally lead the cavalry under his command to counterattack, but he was recalled by Zu Dashou's military order, he could only send people back hatefully, ready to join the main force.

"It seems that Zu Dashou doesn't want to have a hard time with us, so he ordered Geng Zhongming to attack the south gate of the capital division quickly, and I want to capture the emperor and the minister of civil and military affairs alive!" Kong Youde, who had been staring at the counterattack of the Guanning army, laughed loudly, there were tens of thousands of cavalry under his command waiting for the counterattack of the Guanning army, he was not afraid, if the Guanning army was defeated all the way down, it was just right, the countless iron bullets and lead bullets he captured happened to be smashed with these artillery, and they collapsed directly.
