Chapter 121: The First Day of the First Month
Chapter 121: The first day of the first month
The city of Beijing, which was in Chinese New Year's Eve, was under martial law, and the last fig leaf of the Ming Empire was torn off by Huang Taiji, thrown on the ground and stepped on it with his feet, and then swaggered away.
This is the reality faced by Zhu Youzhen in the palace!
Man Gui died in battle, and the troops of King Qin in various places stayed dozens of miles away and did not dare to approach, this reality was even more cruel.
At this moment, Zhu Youzhen fell into deep darkness and could not see a trace of light.
looked at the notebook on the case blankly, at this time, no one was talking about retreating from the enemy, they were all talking about one thing, responsibility!
The Houjin army was still rampant in Beizhili, snatching away everything they fancied, including gold and silver, cloth, pig iron (Zunhua is a famous iron factory), population, and grain, as long as they could take it away, they all took it away.
The hateful thing is that no one dares to stop them from doing this. Not a single army dared to fight with Houjin.
At this time, the ministers of the empire are talking about responsibility, how ridiculous, ridiculous, and shameless.
Just when Zhu Youzhen's anger reached a critical point, calmness slowly came. The calmer you are, the more helpless you are. You are the son of heaven and rich in the world, but you are trampled on the face by people's feet. Zhu Youzhen also needs a channel to vent his anger, the people of Gyeonggi also need a target to vent, and the civil and military officials also need a scapegoat.
In fact, at this time, even if Zhu Youzhen knew that there was a person who was actually innocent and knew that this person was the most suitable candidate for Jiliao Inspector he could find, he had to push this person to the court.
Wang Chengen hurriedly came, but there was no footsteps, Zhu Youzhen looked up and saw him with a happy face, and still said in a low voice: "Big companion, is there any news?" ”
"Long live Lord, the Ministry of War sent personnel to check the results of the battle under Tongzhou City, the grades are all real, a total of more than 400 real Tartar levels, not to kill good and take the risk. Baoding Governor Interpretation of the Scriptures, Yushi Fang Daren joint report, Shizhu Xuanfu Qin Liangyu with Dengzhou regimental training ambassador Chen Xie, a total of more than 6,000 people in the two departments, entered the king of Beijing Qin. The book also said that the key places in Tongzhou could not be guarded without heavy troops, so the two of them were allowed to lead their troops into Beijing. The slave asked the following, there was indeed a stone pillar Xuanfu Qin Liangyu led the troops to camp about five miles outside the Guangqu Gate, and Qin Liangyu also personally went to the city gate to report. ”
Hearing this news, Zhu Youzhen's face unexpectedly flashed with a hint of red, and he straightened his rickety waist and said: "Big companion, this Dengzhou regimental training camp is the vanguard of the Dengzhou battalion, how can you dare to threaten the flank of Houjin Siege City in the field?" ”
Wang Chengen hesitated, he also knew what Chongzhen wanted to hear, and said: "Long live Lord, you don't have to be ignorant of military affairs, don't dare to say anything." However, this regimental training ambassador must be a loyal minister who is not afraid of death. You think, knowing that Houjin was attacking Tongzhou, he also ran into it. This will follow Qin Liangyu into the Beijing Division, so many Qin Wang's troops, which one dares to ....... ”
Speaking of this, Wang Chengen stopped, but Chongzhen heard what he meant, shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Big companion, don't be shy about it." I've seen all these things. The wind knows the strength of the grass, and the board swings to see the loyalty. Everyone else hid far away, and the two armies combined were less than 10,000, but they rushed in. ”
Wang Chengen said: "Long live the lord, Qin Liangyu's stone pillar soldiers, a total of more than 13,000 people, the order of the Feng army department went north to the border, to Xinyang, heard that the Beijing division had changed, personally led 3,000 soldiers, and hurried to Baoding. The military department is also known as her rushing to the aid of Tongzhou, and caught up with the Dengzhou regimental training camp to be ordered to be Qinwang, so she got together. It is estimated that in a few days, the main force of the stone pillar soldiers will also be able to reach the Beijing Division. ”
"Big companion, I will summon Qin Liangyu on the platform tomorrow and arrange it."
After saying this, Zhu Youzhen continued to bury his head in reviewing the folds, in fact, there was no good news, he was most concerned about Sun Chengzong, but now there was no news at all. A mere stone pillar soldier and a training camp of the Dengzhou regiment are just a drop in the bucket for the entire battle situation. Even if they can fight again, no matter how dare they fight, there will be less than 20,000 people. Liu Zhilun's experience is not far away!
Chen Xie's class is still too low, even if he is a loyal minister, the emperor has no reason to receive him. Anyway, this name entered Chongzhen's ears for the first time.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, it was another sunny day. Chen Xie rarely slept until the sun came out before getting up. If there were cheers in the camp, Chen Xie would not be woken up, and it was estimated that he would still have to sleep. Leaving the warm quilt, a little movement alarmed the red fruit waiting on the side.
"Is the master up?" Hongguo said a greeting and went out very consciously. Chen Xie put on his clothes three or two times, went to the temporary toilet, and when he came back, hot water had already come.
"What's going on?" Chen Xie asked, and Hongguo smiled: "It's nothing, Wang Qinian's tossing New Year's event." Didn't I tell you about that? Chen Xie thought for a while: "It seems that I said that I forgot about drinking wine." ”
Out of the circle enclosed by the carriage, I don't know when Cui Xin followed behind him, Chen Xie was still very satisfied with this kid. Unlike Mengzi, I don't know where to run. The cotton coat seemed to be overdue, not like it used to be worn to mop the floor, it should have been made by a group of women. The women who were rescued didn't have much hatred for this bald boy, which Chen Xie was very surprised by, and he didn't bother to agree to the reason.
Cui Xin has an extra knife on his waist, and he doesn't know who gave it to him. The shoes have also been replaced with Dengzhou version of military boots, and those who have watched the anti-Japanese drama must have seen the kind of big scalp shoes worn by devils. It clicks when it walks, and it is very imposing.
Wang Qinian organized well, and the group of people in the camp formed a circle, some were tug-of-war, some were wrestling, and some were running with a comrade-in-arms on their backs, adding up to more than a dozen events, and the fun was very lively. Chen Xie took a turn and came back satisfied.
It happened that Wang Qinian was waiting outside, and when he saw Chen Xie, he stepped forward and said, "Sir, are you still satisfied with the organization of the event?" ”
When the invitation came, Chen Xie smiled and said, "Good job, the vigilance has not been relaxed, right?" ”
Wang Qinian stood up and said: "Don't dare to have any slackness, the scouts have been sent out." ”
Back in the tent, Chen Xie's mood did not change for the better, but felt a little depressed. In general, there are too few people, and I am not sure where these two thousand people will fight. Sitting on the marching bed, Chen Xie was stunned for a while, his wrist shook a few times, and he looked down at the line of words: "What are you looking for me?" ”
Seeing that there was no one outside, Chen Xie lay on the bed and said in a low voice: "Find some historical information, the battlefield of Beizhili in the first month of the third year of Chongzhen." ”
After a while, there was a continuous vibration on his wrist, and Chen Xie hurriedly looked at it, there was not too much information, and there were only dozens of words in total. Probably mean, not long ago, Qian Longxi, who had a good relationship with Yuan Chonghuan, was deposed, and Zhou Yanru, He Ruzhong, and Qian Xiangkun entered the cabinet. After Man Gui hung up, Ma Shilong led the division of the king of Qin in various places, and Liu Zhilun died in Zunhua. On the fourth day of the first lunar month, Yongping was captured by Houjin, and then Luanzhou was captured, and Liu Ce, the governor of Jiliao, was taken to prison and sentenced to death soon after. Cabinet Han Kuang resigned, etc.
In short, there has been no good news recently, and Chen Xie felt quite depressed after reading it. According to historical records, there was no good thing in the past two months, taking Yuan Chonghuan and cleaning up Qian Longxi of Donglin's party, and there were two major scapegoats. The entire Beizhili was smashed, and there was still a mind to fight for power and profit, which really convinced these civil officials. Chongzhen, forget it, don't talk about this monarch with low eyes. It's sad to think about his ending, the most diligent emperor since the Ming Dynasty, the result of hanging a coal mountain.
Finally waited for Qin Liangyu to come back from the palace, and entered Chen Xie's tent with a sad face.
"Sihua, let's discuss with you, how should I fight next?" Qin Liangyu's face was eager, and it seemed that he was fooled by Chongzhen's little favor when he saw His Majesty. Chongzhen at this time really can't give anything too real. Chen Xie knew this very well in his heart, but he couldn't stand the loyalty of Qin Liangyu, and he was determined to fight for Daming to the end.
"I still want to fight Zunhua!" Chen Xie's attitude was very resolute and he never wavered in the slightest. Qin Liangyu stood in front of the map, there was really no intention of forcibly occupying it, and Chen Xie was fortunate to have a lot of inventory. After staring at the map for a while, Qin Liangyu said: "After entering the city, His Majesty summoned me on the platform and encouraged me to make meritorious contributions to the country. He also said that Ma Shilong led a large army in Jizhou, and did not save Liu Zhilun when he saw death, and his guide was lost. The generals of the world are like this, how should the Ming Dynasty be stable? ”
"There are only 100,000 people in Houjin, such a big Beizhili, this little force will be thrown into the sea like a stone, and the waves will not bring a single flower. Ma Shilong came out of Shanhaiguan and led 15,000 troops, and he was able to avoid the Houjin army along the way, which shows that the situation on this battlefield is far from being as terrible as we think. Now Sanhe and Jizhou are in the hands of our army, and the main force of Houjin has rushed to Shanhaiguan, why can't we concentrate our forces to fight Zunhua? Chen Xie complained very incomprehensibly, and Qin Liangyu looked at Chen Xie in surprise and didn't speak for a while.
Chen Xie was puzzled: "Aunt Qin, why are you looking at me like this?" Qin Liangyu smiled bitterly: "Do you really not understand this or pretend not to understand?" Zunhua is a fortified city, even if the main force of our army arrives, adding up to more than 10,000 people, it is impossible to defeat it in a few days. In the past few days, it was enough for Huang Taiji to wrap dumplings on his back. Otherwise, why is Ma Shilong so old in the military and shrinking in Jizhou? Isn't it because the Houjin army has many cavalry and marches fast? Your regimental training, my white pole soldiers, are all infantry troops. What do we compare to the march? ”
Chen Xie listened disapprovingly and said, "Isn't it just a field battle?" It's just a fight, if you don't fight, I don't fight, who will fight? Just let the golden iron hooves wreak havoc on the land of my Central Plains? I don't care what others think, anyway, I will go out tomorrow and go north to Zunhua. I don't believe it, as long as everyone dares to fight to the death, the Ming Dynasty's million troops, ten for one can exhaust the little strength of Jiannu. ”rs
