"There is an emergency military situation! Get out of the way! I want to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! Feng Shikong rushed to the Qin Palace, with the Shaanxi guards. The guards at the main gate of the palace were unmoved, but only secretly squinted at these civil and military officials.

After a long time, a side door opened next to the gate, and out of it came a royal official. Feng Shikong narrowed his eyes before he recognized this person, it was Shi Zhangshang, the governor of the Qin Mansion who dared to face the crown prince's rudeness.

Seeing that the governor was with the three divisions, Zhang Shangxuan hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and asked suspiciously: "I don't know why the ministry is here?" ”

"I'm waiting to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, there is an urgent military situation!" Feng Shikong said urgently: "What about Your Highness? ”

"Your Highness didn't come back after worshipping Zhang Zi yesterday, I heard that he moved to the camp." Zhang Shangxuan secretly said in his heart: You have bullied others in a group, where are people willing to stay longer?

"In the camp!" Feng Shikong looked anxious, turned to his colleagues and said, "Quick! Go to the guard camp outside the north gate to meet Your Highness. ”

Where is the backbone of the bureaucrats in their hearts, hearing the governor's shout, they immediately turned around and got on the sedan chair, for fear of being alone.

The military newspaper said: Li Thief took Shangluo Road from Nanyang to attack Xi'an, and captured Shangzhou the day before yesterday, and Huang Shiqing of Shangluo Road died in the king's affairs.

Now that the army of thieves has reached the gate of Xi'an, it is really the autumn of life and death, the cultivation of the mind in the past, Mount Tai collapsed in front of it and the color remained unchanged, all of them were thrown away from Java, and no one can really be calm.

"Master of the Ministry!" The Governor Yamen's messenger, who had run to explore the road earlier, rode a fast horse and rushed back, ignoring the onlookers on the street, and shouted loudly: "The guard camp of the East Palace left last night!" ”

Feng Shikong's heart was cold when he heard this, and he shouted: "Send someone to chase it!" As soon as he said this, he also felt that something was wrong. What about chasing it back? Do you want this Chongling prince to take everyone to the city to kill the thieves?

Lu Zhiqi rode closely behind Feng Shikong, and heard that the prince had left last night. His heart was half cold, and he said loudly: "Feng Buyuan, the prince left quietly last night, presumably because he got the news in advance. ”

Feng Shikong's heart was in turmoil, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Du Si Trilda also patted his horse and said hurriedly: "Ministry." Now the priority is to defend the city against thieves. None of us can afford the sin of losing the land. Xia Guan thought that he should go and invite Sun Du out first. ”

As soon as Feng Shikong heard the mention of Sun Chuanting, a spirit woke up: "Yes, yes!" What Cui Dusi said is very true, go and ask Sun Du to come out! I'll go back to King Qin's Mansion first and ask King Qin to make a decision. ”

Although the vassal king of the Ming Dynasty actually had no local administrative and military power, even the guards were greatly reduced after Renxuan, and at most he only collected some miscellaneous taxes to eat and eat the fields, which was actually a Taiping prince. However, the ancestral system of Emperor Gao. These vassal kings all want to defend the Jingshi, thinking that they are the Ping Domain, so it is not impossible for them to come forward when they encounter major events.

Lu Zhiqi lamented in his heart when he heard this: It's just that the crown prince fled overnight, and one of the guards has no idea like this, so it's okay if this battle is not fought!

"Ministry, there are still 5,000 Sichuan soldiers in Xi'an Mansion, or they can be used!" Huang Jiongjin said: "It's just that this team is short of food and clothing, and we should ask King Qin to give a heavy reward." ”

Trilda's face flushed. Suddenly realized that I might have done something very stupid. Also yesterday, Luo Yukun, an officer of the Sichuan Barracks, sent a sum of silver. Ask him to give him the customs clearance paperwork and ask to go north for food. Trierda knew that Xi'an Mansion simply had no spare strength to support this Sichuan army. Instead of holding it in your hands, it is better to be a favor, take the money, and let these Sichuan soldiers go to Shanxi to eat.

I didn't expect to leave just yesterday, and today the thief arrived!

- Yes! These Nishikawa Hills can't even afford a piece of chill. Where did the money come from to bribe me!

Trilda only blamed himself for being greedy for a while, and he actually took advantage of his wisdom and let go of these Sichuan soldiers who might be able to fight.

"The Sichuan soldiers also pulled out of camp yesterday." Trilda whispered.

"Why are we all together!" Feng Shikong was afraid of anger, and immediately seemed to have a big realization: "Is it the order of the East Palace?" ”

Trilda just shook her head and didn't speak.

While talking. I only heard the sound of horses' hooves behind everyone, and a man in Tsing Yi who looked like a young man was riding on a horse, and when he saw the officials turn over and fall off the horse, he cried bitterly.

Feng Shikong thought it was unlucky, and shouted: "Who are you!" What to cry about! ”

"When Li Thief arrived in Chang'an County, there were only 300 social soldiers in the county." The little guy cried: "My master has already thrown himself into the well!" ”

Feng Shikong was shocked and frightened, and asked sharply, "Who is your master!" ”

"My lord is the old man Wu of Chang'an County, and the official is obedient." The little guy endured his grief and reported Wu Congyi's official name.

When Feng Shikong heard that it was Chang'an County, he already had an ominous premonition in his heart, and when he heard Wu Congyi's name, he completely implemented it.

In the seventh year of Hongwu, Geng Bingwen, Marquis of Changxing, rebuilt the city wall of Xi'an in order to strengthen the military defense capability of Xi'an City. During the construction, the south and west walls remained unchanged, and the north and east walls were extended outward by a quarter, increasing the area of the urban area by about one-third compared with the new city built by Han Jian. At the same time, the two counties of Chang'an and Xianning were extended into the city.

Now Chang'an County's completion of the well has become the most vivid footnote under the city.

The officials hurt him, and those who had a festival with Wu Congyi could hardly hate him in their hearts; Those who have dealings are even more gloomy, and tears are spilling on their clothes.

"Let's go see King Qin first." Feng Shikong pointed to the Qin Wangfu from afar, but secretly pressed the horse's head. Waiting for Trierda to catch up, the governor of Shaanxi asked in a low voice, "Can you still defend the city and wait for help?" ”

"We can only wait for the minister's festival." Trilda said lonely.

Shaanxi is located at the border, so there are Shaanxi capital divisions and line capital divisions. The capital division is located in Xi'an, and the Xingdu division is located in Ganzhou, and the two are 2,600 miles apart. If you want to talk about reinforcements, you can't count on the side of Xingdu Division. In comparison, Shanxi's Jin soldiers are more reliable, but the premise is that Xi'an can hold for more than a month.

"Kaifeng has been guarded for a year and a half, Xi'an will not be weaker than Kaifeng, right?" Feng Shikong asked in a low voice.

Trilda was speechless.

The Battle of Kaifeng was really the most tragic battle after the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

From February of the 14th year of Chongzhen to September of the 15th year, Li Zicheng opened the Fengfu three times, and the two sides fought to the death. Zuihou Li Zicheng successfully broke the embankment, and the flood flooded the entire Kaifeng City. Kaifeng City, with a population of more than 300,000, has experienced war, famine, drowning, and massacre. There are less than 30,000 people left in Zuihou.

After this battle, Li Zicheng was also injured and withdrew from the dead city. The Ming court had to deal with the Qing soldiers from the entrance of Xuanda, and naturally it was even more powerless to pursue.

If Xi'an also plays like this......

Trilda didn't even dare to imagine.

Feng Shikong saw that Trierda didn't speak, so he had to sigh and let the horse go to King Qin's mansion again.

This scene on the street soon spread throughout Xi'an through rumors. Men and food were hidden in every house. I prepared a big red paper with "Shunmin" written on it, and I was ready to meet the king.

……

Zhu Cunji, the king of Qin, stood by the pond, sprinkling bait into the water and watching the koi compete for food. He had already heard Zhang Shangjun say that the thieves had attacked the city, but the only thing he could do was to pretend to be calm and play carp here.

"Your Majesty, you should continue to suffer from it! Since the crown prince is called forward, it is not a sin for us to follow the crown prince! Zhang Shangjun hurriedly said: "No matter how late it is, you won't be able to go out!" ”

Zhu Cunji suddenly turned his head and shouted hysterically: "No! I just gave every grass and tree here to Li Thief, and I didn't give it to that animal! ”

Zhang Shangjun was so angry that he choked for a while.

What kind of stupidity is this!

Li Zicheng is the murderer who killed your clansman. The crown prince is your nephew. Even if the crown prince is rude, he can't say such things without distinguishing between right and wrong no matter what!

Especially since this is still a big question of right and wrong!

Zhu Cunji looked at the frightened and inexplicable Zhang Shangzhen and suddenly smiled. As if wanting to appease this loyal Changshi, he said: "I dreamed of Emperor Taizu Gao. It's true! Emperor Gao really dreamed of it! ”

Zhang Shangjun's heart fell: Oops! This one looks like a demon!

"Emperor Gao is very fierce!" Zhu Cunji seemed to be frightened by the dream he recalled, and shuddered. His voice sharpened: "It's like you're going to eat me alive!" ”

"The king's ......" Zhang Shangjun shouted, wanting to wake up Zhu Cunji from hysteria.

"It's exactly like that animal prince! Same! Zhu Cunji roared wildly, as if he was completely in a dream, and rushed along the covered bridge, and the terrifying screams could still be heard in the distance.

Zhang Shangjun stood on the spot. In a trance: As soon as Xi'an was lost, two-thirds of the world fell into the hands of the thieves...... Emperor Gao's Emperor Daming, who was cast with all his heart, is this about to end?

"Zhang Changshi. Long history? Master Zhang? ”

"Huh? What's the matter? Zhang Shangjun felt that someone was calling him in a trance, and when he came back to his senses, he saw that it was the descendant of the Qin Mansion.

"Master Feng, they are back again, asking to see the king."

"I'll go and welcome them in, and you go and ask the princess to persuade the king to come out." Zhang Shangzhen can only be a dead horse doctor as a live horse doctor.

Feng Shikong and the others were welcomed into the main hall by Zhang Shangjun, and their hearts were in a strong cavity. They have waited a long time, and they are about to lose patience. Finally, Zhu Cunji, the contemporary prince of the Qin Domain, came.

Feng Shikong immediately greeted him and said sadly: "Great King! The thieves are about to force the city, and they also ask the king to open the treasury and recruit volunteers to defend the city! ”

Zhu Cunji looked at Feng Shikong, his eyes were red: "Open my treasury?" Open my treasury! You weishenme are staring at my silver! Get lost! You wine bags and rice bags! Useless stuff! Get out of the way! ”

The governor is also a fiefdom. It's still a bit backbone.

Feng Shikong was scolded by Zhu Cunji like this, his heart was sad and angry, and he secretly said: This is your Zhu family's country! You don't care about it yourself, let alone me and other courtiers with foreign surnames! As long as you have fulfilled your courtiers, you will be worthy of your grace. When Huang Jiong and others saw this situation, they were all gloomy.

Everyone lost their souls and left the Qin Palace, and Trierda bowed to the bureaucrats and said: "At this time, the military is imminent, please forgive Erda for taking the first step and facing the enemy!" ”

Everyone has some understanding of the current strength of Xi'an Mansion, and their mouths are bitter, but they just say: "I wish Sima Du success!" ”

Trierda himself did not believe that the social soldiers of Xi'an Mansion could stop Li Zicheng's army of 100,000.

It's just that this so-called arrow has to be sent on the string, even if you know that you are invincible, you have to show your sword, otherwise how can you be worthy of the mighty emperor's grace? As soon as he thought of this, Trilda naturally gave birth to a heroic spirit in his chest, and called on his generals to ride his horse to the city pass. (To be continued......)
