Chapter 158: The soldiers besiege the capital

Zhang Biwu's move to increase the military stove is to let the people in the city know the way, and also let people shoot out the cloth, telling that as long as he comes to surrender, he will not be blamed for the past, even if the situation was the same when he broke through Hangzhou before!

Many arrows tied with cloth were poured into the capital, Yue Le shouted, he ordered the whole city, if you can pick up the arrows that come from them, they must be handed over immediately, and they are not allowed to open them to see, if it is late, they will be dealt with by military law! Whoever dares to hide will be exterminated!

Yue Le and Kupilon added a large number of people to patrol around the city, strictly preventing anyone from picking it up and not handing it over.

Under such a strict order, who would dare to mess around? Many people pick it up and hand it in immediately, but it's hard to guarantee that there will be a fish that leaks the net! Someone picked it up and didn't turn it in, but burned it.

The content recorded in the cloth shot by Zhang Biwu was still passed on orally to everyone through oral transmission, and they just secretly hid the cloth and did not release it.

Zhang Biwu was very patient, he was waiting, waiting for a good opportunity, he looked at the soldiers and civilians defending the city, and he was even happier in his heart.

At this time, Hou Qifei reported that Lu Xiangsheng had arrived with his army. Zhang Biwu was even more happy, Lu Xiangsheng brought 70,000 horses, and now there are 240,000 troops under the city of Beijing, plus Lu Xiangsheng's 70,000 people, it will reach 300,000 people.

Judging from the appearance, the defenders of Beijing City only have about 20,000 people, and it is not difficult to capture it! Even so, Zhang Biwu still has to slow down, and it is naturally best to be able to surrender without a fight, and the people in the city must be very anxious.

Zhang Biwu asked Hou Qifei to report to Lu Xiangsheng, and asked Lu Xiangsheng to recruit nearby residents to also serve as his army to come to the capital, falsely claiming that Lu Xiangsheng had led 200,000 people.

Under the city. Zhang Biwu has already falsely claimed to have 500,000 people. It adds up to 700,000. Although the people in the city did not believe that Zhang Biwu would have such a huge force, if it was weakened, they would also think that Zhang Biwu had at least 400,000 people, so how could the residents in the city not be afraid? They're going to speed things up.

According to the agreement, Lu Xiang ascended, and the defenders of the city climbed to the top of the city, and they saw that the distance was covered by smoke and dust, and the clouds and mist seemed to fill the entire world!

The sound of footsteps shook the heavens and the earth. The entire capital was shaken by the footsteps.

Suddenly, the flags covered the sky, and the guns and halberds also covered the sky. The sun seemed to be busy pouring its light on the white blades, and it was already shining flawlessly on the capital.

I saw that everyone in the defenders of the capital was in an extreme shock, and their mouths opened wide and wide, even if they put a steamed bun in their mouths, they could put it in.

The people in the city were talking to each other, and some people looked at the people around them and whispered to the dead friends: "Zhang Jun is said to have 700,000 people!" They came to besiege the lonely city, and the emperor and the imperial father regent had left, and the main army and elite had all left Beijing. How can we hold on? We were originally remnants of the Ming Dynasty......"

As soon as these words came out, his companion immediately signaled him to shut up. I can't go on any more, lest there be misfortune.

The remnants of the Ming Dynasty just looked at each other, and they had reached an agreement through their eyes, and they were going to find a good time to welcome Zhang's army into the city.

Not only the remnants of the Ming Dynasty have this idea, but even the Manchurians, they don't want to be substitutes for the dead, they are also saying whether they want to surrender, anyway, Zhang Biwu will not kill them, as long as they are obedient, saving their lives is the best thing.

It's just that there are still few Manchus with rebellious intentions, and most of the Manchus have already left with Dolgon and Shunzhi, and the rest are unable to give up their wealth, land, and shops in the capital, and they will die to be a miser.

Of course, there are also some coated minions, and if the master does not leave, they have to stay, and they are unwilling.

And the vast majority of the Manchurians in the defenders were outlaws, and they didn't want to live if they stayed. They were all ordered, and they would die a heroic death, and they would never let Zhang Biwu despise them! They are absolutely faithful.

As for Yue Le and Ji Bi Long, they saw the change in everyone's faces, how could Yue Le and Ji Bi Long not know the way? It's just that they can't use drastic means, otherwise they will provoke changes in everyone, and the situation will be even more difficult to manage.

Zhang Biwu looked at everything with a telescope, and when he saw it, he couldn't help but smile and nodded, he knew that this peach was getting more and more ripe, as long as he waited for a while, the peach would be ripe, and he could pick it at that time.

Zhang Biwu handed it to Zheng Chenggong and Zhang Huangyan beside him and said, "Look at it! Look at the people of the castle! Look at their expressions! Ha Lu Ha! As soon as I saw this, I was so excited and happy! The capital is under my control! ”

Zheng Chenggong and Zhang Huangyan According to what Zhang Biwu said, they looked over, didn't they? The guards of the city were all full of sorrow, and they seemed to be about to cry out, as if they could not bear it.

Especially the confusion and helplessness on their faces, which makes people see that they have no intention of defending, and if they don't have a firm defensive heart, if they face a strong enemy, they will only be defeated!

Zhang Biwu said: "Okay! Let's wait! Wait a little longer, the people in the city can't stand it! Let's attack again! Constantly declare to them the might of our army! Let them be afraid day by day! And it has to be rumored that we will not hesitate to be like Li Zicheng besieging Kaifeng, but they can't flood Kaifeng like the Yellow River flooding Kaifeng! At the beginning of flooding Kaifeng, most of the people in Kaifeng were buried in the belly of the fish, presumably the people of the capital did not want to suffer the tragedy of the people of Kaifeng! ”

Zheng Chenggong smiled and said, "King Qi's plan is wonderful!" It is to force the people in the capital to hurry up and cooperate with us! It will be easier to break the city! ”

Zhang Biwu naturally thought so, he was nodding, and at this time, Lu Xiangsheng and Li Guo came in.

As soon as they arrived, Zhang Biwu stepped forward in great strides and said, "Nine Elders! King Jin and Marquis Xingguo are here! I'm looking forward to you! I am looking forward to you! ”

Lu Xiangsheng smiled and said, "King Qi, we have seen that the defenders of the city have been shaken!" It won't be a difficult task to destroy this city! In time, if we don't move, people in the city will take the initiative to contact us! Wish we could move to save them! ”

Li Yan also spoke up and said, "Yes! I think so too! Presumably, the plan to break the capital, King Qi has already planned in his chest, right? ”

Zhang Biwu laughed and said, "Yes! I just want to wait until the good time to break the capital! The capital is in my hands! ”

Li Yan, Lu Xiangsheng, Li Dingguo and others all nodded, and they were also full of expectations. Although Li Yan and Li Guo and others besieged the capital for the second time, they were about to break the capital, and after years of fighting, they finally drove the Tartars out of the pass, and the territory of the Ming Dynasty was restored again! How can you not be excited, not happy?

It's just that Zhang Biwu still has an explanation: "None of you can rest first!" I also want to go with you to worship Chongzhen's imperial mausoleum! To prove that we are loyal to the Ming Chamber! Of course, the twelve tombs of the Ming Dynasty are also to be sacrificed! Let the people in the city know how loyal we are to the Ming Dynasty, and let them understand that they are the remnants of the Ming Dynasty, and as long as they put things right, they can be pardoned! ”

Lu Xiangsheng and the others laughed again, Zhang Biwu just wanted to further disturb the hearts of the soldiers and civilians in the city and inspire them to act quickly!

At this time, Yao Dongzhao also spoke up: "Please, please let me go too!" I, I want to ...... too" Yao Dongzhao remembered the situation when he went to Chang'an Gate to ask for help, as if it was yesterday! Although he was the last one, he still did not get an audience with Chongzhen.

How can you say that he is a king, and he is a people, and he was an official of the Ming Dynasty when he was young! He wanted to go and worship again, and if he didn't worship again, he would have no chance in his lifetime.

Yao Dongzhao pleaded, he couldn't scream loudly, he could only lie down squeaky to explain.

Zhang Biwu looked at him, and when he saw his stubborn expression again, he understood that he couldn't disobey Yao Dongzhao! And in Yao Dongzhao's situation, it is unknown how long he can live!

Lu Xiangsheng is also asking for Yao Dongzhao, so that Zhang Biwu has to let Yao Dongzhao go no matter what.

Of course, when attacking the capital, Yao Dongzhao also wanted to lie down, unable to leave here, to see how their capital was recovered. The reason why Yao Dongzhao hasn't swallowed his last breath is that he just wants to see the recovery of the capital! When he saw the recovery of the capital, it was when he lost his breath! He will be able to leave without regrets.

Zhang Biwu no longer refused Yao Dongzhao for this reason, so he asked people to carry Yao Dongzhao with him.

Zhang Biwu led the three armies to worship the Twelve Tombs of the Ming Emperor and Chongzhen in front of the soldiers and civilians of the city.

It seems that the hearts of the people in the city have long been shaken and collapsed! They are all discussing privately, talking about the news that Zhang Biwu worships the twelve tombs of Changping and Chongzhen, and the most important thing is naturally that Zhang Biwu said that the remnants of the Ming Dynasty are all the people of our dynasty and will not harm this thing.

This is a reassuring pill, which can make the people in the capital fall to Zhang Biwu! How to explain that the dynasty is also a country for more than 200 years, and there is still a certain foundation in the hearts of the people. Even Jiangnan and other places are nostalgic for the Ming Dynasty, repeatedly resisting the Manchus, and helping the Manchus defeat Li Zicheng and others, not to mention the capital with a solid foundation.

Yue Le and Ji Bilong already knew about the situation in the capital, but they were not panicked at all, in their minds, as long as the city could be protected for one more day, it would be a day, and the others would not have to pay much attention to it, besides, these things were expected, there was nothing to say!

Yue Le and Ji Bilong would not give up, he immediately ordered to open fire to bombard Zhang Biwu! Even if they can't bombard Zhang Biwu, as long as they show their might to Zhang Biwu, they will not give in. (To be continued......)
