Receiving the flying pigeon biography from Jingshi, all those who knew the content became extremely heavy. And Jiang Xia locked himself in the study alone and didn't come out all afternoon.

As early as when Jiangxia had just begun to prepare for the ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens and preparing for Zhu Zaijiang to officially become pro-government, he already felt that Tatar and the "Wuxia" organization should have a certain connection. Otherwise, it could not be such a coincidence, the Wuxia organization was just about to seize power at the ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens, and the Tatars immediately attacked the border pass and prevented the border army from returning to the Beijing Division.

But Jiang Xia didn't expect that Tatar and the Wuxia organization would cooperate so closely. Now that the Tatars attacked Jizhou Mansion and controlled the Wuxia organization in the south of the Yangtze River, they even sent troops to take the waterway of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal and directly killed the periphery of the Beijing Division.

In terms of time, this should be when Jiangxia just led his troops out of Beijing and was ready to gallop to aid Yongping Mansion, and Nanjing began to send troops and horses.

Not only that, according to the news in the book of flying pigeons, because of Nanjing's dispatch, the king of Qi in Shanxi and the king of Lu in Shandong also sent a large army at the same time and was moving closer to Beijing. In this way, the three-way army marched hand in hand, and the goal was to take the Beijing division directly, which basically forced Jiang Xia to return to the Beijing division to preside over the overall situation.

However, if Jiangxia withdraws the Jingshi from Jizhou Mansion now, then there are two problems faced. One Jizhou Mansion will be broken, and the Tatars will be killed all the way to the Beijing Division, and the Beijing Division will be attacked on the back of the enemy. Jiang Xia also believed that Jiang Bin would not let himself withdraw to the capital so easily.

But if it is not withdrawn, the Beijing division will be leaderless, and in the face of the menacing three-way army, whether the Beijing division can hold it safely is a question that Jiangxia cannot guarantee.

Fortunately, there are two people in the Beijing Division, Yang Yiqing and Wang Shouren, and the two of them are also proficient in arranging troops.

So now there is only one way left for Jiangxia, that is, to deal with the Tatar army in a short time, and then withdraw to the Beijing division and preside over the overall situation.

But Jiang Bin and Jiang Bin's 100,000 Tatar army can really be solved so easily? I don't need to say the answer, I believe everyone knows that it is no.

Not to mention the courage and good fighting of the Tatar soldiers, even if the combat effectiveness is equal to that of the Ming soldiers, the Ming soldiers in Jizhou Mansion are not as good as the Tatar army.

Jiang Xia locked himself in the study, and Xia Jialin, who didn't know him very well, thought that Jiang Xia had been hit by Yan zhòng and was about to collapse.

But those who have followed Jiang Xia for many years, such as Xiao Shu, Qian Juexing, and Zhang Meng, have no intention of worrying at all. Because they knew that Jiang Xia locked himself in the study, it was definitely not because he was hit, but because he was thinking about countermeasures.

In the study, Jiang Xia sat on a Taishi chair, his eyes staring at a topographical map of Jizhou Mansion in front of him. God knows, he has been in this position for more than three hours, and he has not moved.

In the dead of night, Jiang Xia's eyes suddenly lit up, and he took the entire map off the shelf of the wall chart, and then took it to the desk and spread it out.

He picked up a brush on the table and drew a few strokes on it. Then he threw down the brush, walked to the door and opened the door and shouted: "Come on, immediately spread the word to Lord Xia Jialin, Xiao Kill, Qianjue Xing and others are coming!" ”

"Yes!" Not far from the study, several guards standing in the garden hurriedly went to spread the word to Jiangxia after receiving the order.

After a while, Xia Jialin and Xiao killed them. After seeing Jiang Xia, Xia Jialin first knelt down to Jiang Xia and saluted, and shouted: "Weichen see the emperor." ”

When Xiao Shu and the others saw Xia Jialin like this, they had no choice but to kneel down and salute and shout, "See the emperor." ”

Jiang Xia was helpless, and hurriedly said: "No courtesy, no courtesy." Flat ......"

After everyone stood up, Jiang Xia beckoned to Xia Jialin and said, "Lord Xia, please come and take a look." ”

"Yes, Wechen obeys." After Xia Jialin walked in front of Jiang Xia, he didn't forget to say to Jiang Xia: "Please forgive Weichen for being rude." Only then did he stand beside Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia stretched out his hand on the ground, nodded the place he had sketched with a brush, and asked, "Lord Xia, do you know where this is?" ”

"If you go back to the emperor, this is Jiangbei County, very close to Jizhou Mansion." Xia Jialin Road.

Jiang Xia nodded and asked, "Lord Xia, as far as I know, this county has suffered a flood once, right?" ”

Xia Jialin nodded and said, "There is indeed one time." At that time, it was due to the upstream of the Luan River, the section close to Baiyan Mountain, encountered the Baiyan Mountain debris flow landslide. Mudble poured down from the mountains, blocking the upper reaches of the Luan River.

Then the river was diverted and poured into Jiangbei County. Fortunately, at that time, the emperor issued a warrant and ordered all the soldiers of the surrounding guard to go and dig the blocked channel of the Luanhe River, otherwise the river water would pour into the Jizhou Mansion. Maybe the entire Jizhou Mansion will be flooded. ”

Jiang Xia nodded after hearing this, but he didn't have time to speak. Xia Jialin's face suddenly changed, and he suddenly guessed what Jiang Xia wanted to do. Xia Jialin stared at Jiang Xia and asked, "Emperor...... Your Majesty, do you want to ......?"

Jiang Xia nodded and said, "Lord Xia, the situation is critical now, and this is the only way I can think of." There is no other way for me to do this. ”

"But this ...... This ......" Xia Jialin suddenly knelt on the ground and said to Jiang Xia: "Please think twice, if you really use such a method, if you don't remedy it in time, I'm afraid it will be more than Jiangbei County and Jizhou Mansion at that time." Even the villages and counties near Jizhou Mansion may also suffer. When the time comes, people will be displaced, the harvest will be lost, and many people will die. ”

After Jiang Xia heard this, he also looked unbearable. He sighed and said, "Lord Xia, if you don't use this method. Jizhou Mansion I have to give up, and when the time comes, the Tatars will plunder, burn, kill and loot. Civilians will also be displaced, with heavy casualties.

Now there is a war near Jizhou Mansion, and many people have begun to flee to Beijing. I thought I would simply encourage the people to continue to evacuate to the capital until they were almost done. We should have only finished preparing this plan, and when the time comes, we will not be in much danger to the people. ”

"This ......" Xia Jialin hesitated.

In the deepest part of his heart, he naturally opposed Jiang Xia's idea. But he also understands that apart from this planned accident, there is really no other way to deal with the situation in front of him.

Xia Jialin finally sighed and said, "Then obey the emperor's will." ”

Jiang Xia bowed slightly.

Zhang Meng, who was on the side, couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, what are you preparing for?" Why can't I understand? ”
