After two days of waiting, Wang Feng and Zhou Shuyuan, who stayed in Taiyuan, did not disappoint Wei Zheng.

This is because it took them only two days to completely annihilate the 40,000 elite officers and soldiers who attacked Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, and captured more than 29,000 officers and soldiers at all levels.

Not only that, the officers and troops who launched attacks on Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces from other directions also lost more than 20,000 men in the attack. After that, they had to take care of the losses of the attacking troops and hastily retreat.

Faced with this result, Wei Zheng's face directly showed a relaxed smile from the heart.

Facing Zhao Yun, who was also excited in front of him, he said in a relaxed tone...... "The battle has been fought, and the next thing is to see what kind of reaction the imperial court will have." "However, our northern army cannot stand by and watch the remaining troops eat meat on the battlefield. And we ourselves stopped here motionless, and we couldn't even drink a sip of hot soup......"

Hearing this, Zhao Yun's eyes quickly shot out two scorching gazes.

Facing Wei Zheng, he asked expectantly: "Dashuai, the soldiers who stayed in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces fought a big victory on the border line. Do we want to give the officers and troops on the opposite side a ......?" "As far as the last general knows, the 10,000 officers and troops defending us have been equipped with grenades and flintlock muskets that the imperial court imitated us. In this case, it is just the right time to fight guò to see if we are equipped with flintlock muskets, or if they are equipped with flintlock muskets and grenades. ”

Wei Zheng shook his head and refused: "In the next few days, we do have action. However, not to attack the officers and troops on the opposite side. "Ben Shuai said it a few days ago. Now we are. There is no strength that can really replace the imperial court. So. As long as the court does not turn its face, we cannot turn its face first. Therefore, in order to gain a firm foothold in front of the people, we must not attack the officials and troops first, sabotage the negotiations proposed by the imperial court, and become the main culprit for sabotaging the peace. "However, if the officials and soldiers of the imperial court provoke us first, then we will not hesitate to fight back......" "In a word, people don't offend me." I don't offend...... If anyone sins against me, I will sin against ......"

After Zhao Yun's fiery heart slowly calmed down, he could only ask Wei Zheng...... "Marshal, since this is the case, then what is the next action of our Northern Army......

Wei Zheng replied with a stern face: "It's very simple, give the opposing officers and soldiers a posture that we are about to launch a retaliatory attack." At the same time, the court negotiators in the barracks told him that the troops I had left behind in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces had successfully repelled the attack of more than 100,000 officers and troops.

We gave the imperial court two days to conquer the northern army. Two days later. The imperial court must give an explanation to my tiger and leopard army, and severely punish those who do not obey the imperial edict. Officers and officers of the Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces who sent troops without authorization. "Otherwise, I will conquer the tens of thousands of elites of the Northern Army, and it will no longer be as simple as stopping here. Instead, they launched a further attack on the capital, and attacked until the foot of the capital......"

Hearing this, Zhao Yun's calm facial expression became excited again.

Because, at this moment, Zhao Yun had already thought of several court negotiators in his mind, and after hearing the defeat of the official army in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces again, his face was dead, like a pig's liver-colored facial expression.

At the same time as the Wei levy received the Datong battle report. The capital, which was only 80 miles away from the garrison of the Northern Army, also received the news of a crushing defeat at the front line, and tens of thousands of elite officers and soldiers were captured by the remaining troops of the Tiger and Leopard Army.

In the face of this news, which shocked both the government and the opposition, hundreds of thousands of Ming people in the capital were panicked. The military department Shangshu, who knew that he could not escape the blame, hanged himself in the study before he waited for Emperor Chongzhen's Xuanzhao Zhaoshu.

I hope that my death can leave a way for my family to live.

Not only that, several officials in charge of the Ministry of War also followed the secretary of the Ministry of War, some of them were hanged in their own homes, and some were hanged in the Ministry of War......

Faced with this result, Emperor Chongzhen, who was already full of anger because of the defeat at the front, was like being slapped with a loud slap again, and was so suffocated that he couldn't say a word......

Seeing the cabinet ministers in the court who were also shocked because of this series of news, Chongzhen had to suppress the shock in his heart, break the increasingly solemn atmosphere in the court, and be the first to speak. "They're all talking...... The front line was defeated, tens of thousands of soldiers were captured, and tens of thousands of elites of the Northern Army less than 100 miles away from the capital also put on a posture of imminent large-scale attack...... What's more, the military department Shangshu, who organized this attack, even hanged himself and handed over such a big mess to the imperial court to wrap up...... "You are all important ministers of my Ming Dynasty and my humerus. At this critical moment when the life and death of the Ming Dynasty is at stake, I hope you can stand up and work with me to solve this mess......"

Emperor Chongzhen's words were like a thorn in the hearts of these ministers, making these ministers feel pain at the same time, and their faces full of shock also showed an expression of shame from the heart.

Under the gaze of Emperor Chongzhen's sharp eyes, a minister had to stand up and say...... "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the imperial court must immediately stop the military confrontation with the tiger and leopard army. Real negotiation with the Haw Par Army, not the so-called delaying time......" "Real negotiation ......" When Emperor Chongzhen said these words, his voice had been unconsciously amplified several times.

Then, like an angry lion, he roared at the minister, "You mean, let me do the fake show...... Let me, let the imperial court, truly compromise with the Tiger and Leopard Army, and ...... Wei Zheng."

I saw that several ministers showed silent facial expressions. Emperor Chongzhen was angry again, and refused without thinking about it: "No, absolutely not...... I am the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and I must not bow my head to a rebellious minister and thief......" "Although the imperial court issued a letter of negotiation with the Tiger and Leopard Army a few days ago, it was only a temporary compromise, and it was a delaying tactic of the imperial court. As long as the imperial court can defeat the tiger and leopard army militarily in a short period of time, the face and dignity of the imperial court will continue to be preserved. "But once this negotiation becomes a reality and there is a result. The face and dignity of the court will never be recovered. With this one thing alone, the imperial court will lose its prestige in the entire Ming Dynasty......" "Under such circumstances, I dare not imagine. Even if we negotiate with the Haw Par Army to end this conflict. I and the entire imperial court, in the eyes of all the people and civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty, do they still have prestige at all...... My holy decree, in the entire Ming Dynasty, is there any ......" (to be continued......
