It is said that the soldiers are fast, but the Zhao family army brigade meets, but it is here to rest calmly, not to mention the Dongchang Mansion, the Shandong officials on the Jinan Mansion have come to visit, this looks like it is about to change the dynasty, even if it is not for the new dynasty to be rich, but also for a safe family, this Xuzhou Zhao family army is too murderous, it is better to be careful.

No matter what the identity is, or if someone intercedes, there is no need to mention the heavy gifts, Zhao Jin didn't see it, but he refused very gently, and only said that the big thing was current, and Jin Ye didn't have time.

What stunned the officials of the Shandong Provincial Government was that the person who received them was actually from the Yansheng Mansion, although it was not a descendant of the Changfang family in the family tree, but it was also the bloodline of the previous generation of the Yan Shenggong.

We are still ashamed to answer what loyalty, filial piety and righteousness, this loyal and filial piety ancestors are so open, but we are in love.

However, after careful investigation, everyone also gasped, originally Yan Shenggong's family occupied a fraction of the fields in Shandong, and now he is guarding the fields in Qufu County to live a tight life, this Kong Zhang really knows how to make trade-offs.

That Kong Zhang is indeed outstanding, and now he is already a representative of Zhao Jin to receive people from all walks of life, his identity is precious, and who doesn't know that there are not many scribes in the Zhao family, and now they can be in charge of themselves, they are all ordinary figures in the future Jiuqing, but this Kong Zhang does not have the slightest reserve and arrogance, treats people gently and humbly, any gift is a refusal, and then does things very organized, everyone feels that there is a response and explanation, and everyone is at ease.

But everyone who is qualified to be received by Kong Zhang, on the one hand, feels at ease, on the other hand, he feels shocked, it turns out that his background has been checked so clearly, how many eyeliners have been planted by his side in Xuzhou, thanks to his own lack of thoughts, otherwise he would have died in vain.

Thinking of this, I can't help but think more, the few who died before are unknown, and they are really scary.

"Now the capital has become a pot of porridge, some people want to move the capital to avoid disaster, some people want to fight to the death, and some people want to ask for peace, and all parties are arguing."

"Several cabinet elders grabbed the soldiers and the clear stream, and they decided that it was impossible for others to oppose anything, and they couldn't oppose it."

"Right now, a few cabinet elders are arguing, but all they think about is how to be decent."

At this time, Lei Cai was active in Nanzhili, while Liu Yong and Ma Chonghao were in Beizhili and Shanxi, presiding over the eyeliner spies there and sending the news back.

The reason why I want to be there in person is because if the other party has any major decisions, Zhao Jiajun's side must also have enough people to come forward, and Ma Chonghao's side has another consideration, the Intelligence Bureau and the internal guard currently have a capable force under the command of Ma Chonghao, this force is used to destroy the diehards of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and then Ma Chonghao personally came forward to collect those who are willing to take refuge, these people are of great use to Zhao Jiajun.

Zhao Jiajun stayed in Linqing for preparation exercises, which is already the junction of Shandong and North Zhili, and is the hub of the main transportation route, this scale of soldiers and horses only along the river, otherwise it will cost a lot of money on baggage transportation and water for people and animals, and between Shandong and North Zhili in addition to the sea route, there is only along the canal.

From Linqing to the capital, there are many states and counties to pass along the canal, but there are only a few places that are really meaningful, from south to north, the first is Cangzhou, Cangzhou is a big city, not far from the Changlu salt field, whether it is the scale of the city or the accumulated grain and grass, it can provide a large army to station.

This is the midpoint of Hejian Province, the army has come here, it is far from the next target, and it has left the Shandong place, if it is attacked halfway, the success is very certain.

But this place is meaningless to the Zhao army, with the speed of the Zhao army's march and logistics supply, carry three days of dry food with him, even if he is frustrated, he can calmly turn around, besides, raising grain and grass on the spot is enough to cope with one or two days.

Further to the north, is Tianjin, this is the real key point, is the real soldier must fight for the place, he is the sea gateway of the capital, but also the south to the brigade of people and horses must pass through, can be said to be the throat place.

For Zhao Jiajun, Tianjin is close enough to Jizhen and the capital, and far enough away from Shandong, where there will be a risk of the grain route being cut off, the back road will be cut off, and then there will be the pressure of the army to flank it, not to mention that the sea is frozen in this season, and the sea support that Zhao Jiajun can rely on the most is gone.

And Tianjin is the last transit hub before the grain enters Beijing, and it is responsible for supplying Jizhen and Shanhaiguan near the heavy responsibility, and the accumulated grain and grass military resources here are also piled up, mastering this side, you can calmly launch an attack on the capital, and the Beijing division has no geographical advantage at all.

Since the Zhao Jiajun bombarded the Beijing Division, according to the peace negotiation treaty, this Tianjin has become an undefended city, there is no Ming army stationed in it, it is completely autonomous by the people, in fact, it is controlled by the Yunshan system, although there are hundreds of armed guards, it is easy to maintain law and order, but it is impossible to defend the city, no matter how elite hundreds of people and horses, there is no way to stop the thousands of troops of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, many people regard Tianjin's safety and security trends as a signal, when the Ming Dynasty will send troops to seize it, when the war will start, the gains and losses of the Beijing division are more symbolic, and Tianjin's attack and defense are the most important.

People who know the soldiers have this judgment, but all the people who are staring at Tianjin are disappointed, the Ming Dynasty has never used soldiers, and the Zhao Jiajun has not moved for a while.

You must know that in several places in Beizhili, the imperial court can still mobilize more than 100,000 troops, among which 10,000 can be called elites, how can they be regarded as able to fight, this force may be nothing in front of the Zhao family's army, but it is enough to take Tianjin to make trouble, but the official army does not move, and the official army does not move.

At present, well-informed people know, only deserters continue, but everywhere sits idly by, compared to the previous situation, what is better is that if there are rebels who want to loot the place, want to do anything wrong, the court and the government can immediately organize the force of suppression, is it that the Ming Dynasty just admitted, is it going to surrender?

But if you want to surrender, then why are you still holding back now, Emperor Chongzhen is a stunned young man, what about the elders? Don't these old oilmen who have been in the sea know this?

In fact, the Ming soldiers and horses are still being mobilized, and they are still transferring elite Qin Kings from all over the world, Sun Chengzong and Wang Zaijin have personally commanded the army after all, and they know that simply piling up the number of people is useless, it just consumes more food and salary, and brings more chaos, but the elite combat power of the pro-soldiers to which those generals belong is very considerable.

Mobilize the pro-soldiers and guards from all over the place to enter Beijing, there have been similar examples after Chengzu Zhu Di, that is, the so-called absurd emperor Wuzong Zhengde time, at that time was also the elite of the world, was considered absurd and wrong by the Wenchen scholars, and has always been sarcastic and scolded, I didn't expect it to be similar at this time, and think about it, it makes sense to do this, some people began to think, did Emperor Wuzong Zhengde do nothing wrong, if the Ming Dynasty went to the present in accordance with the martial practice of Emperor Zhengde, would there be so many internal and external troubles, after all, Zhengde time, The emperor dared to go to the battlefield and fight the Mongol cavalry face to face, if this "absurdity" was handed down

Most of the generals who were mobilized to the capital listened to the order, and a small number of them resisted the order, the reason why there were not so many dispersed was because the Zhao family army did not have a suitable position for them, so there was no position and landing in the past, it was better to wait for surrender and adaptation, and some people wanted to be loyal, and felt that fighting on the battlefield was better than surrendering, and more importantly, they could not see the future in the Xuzhou system.

And the people near Beizhili and Shandong, some people are numb and live still, the life is hard and difficult, but there is no difference between the army, there are also people who want to avoid the military disaster, fleeing with their families, but the fleeing people are back in a few days, after leaving their hometowns, they can feel that the war is in chaos, and there are many thieves and bandits who are active, but it is very quiet in the villages and towns, and the order is maintained.

Even this year's life is better than in the past, because the imperial court no longer collects any harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and even the yamen officials are not so mean, if this is the case every year, it will be a peaceful and good year.

Onlookers speculated a lot, and even didn't know why, Zhao Jin didn't pay attention to so much, he was just waiting for the rectification in Linqing City, but the guards and the various units of the Second Brigade were not idle, and the cavalry went out to patrol and investigate in batches, and the scope of activities has been expanded to all parts of Beizhili, but no one intercepted it, but enjoyed the treatment of welcoming the king in Xiaqi eating pot pulp.

On the tenth day of the stationing in Linqing, there was a heavy snowfall, and the sky and the earth were dyed snow-white, and it was at this time that the news from Chen Sheng's side was completely broken.

There are no ships at sea to transmit the news, and the land can also be transmitted through the Ming army in western Liaoning, and the border army in western Liaoning wants to have a good fate, and it will be convenient to meet in the future, as long as your news can be sent there, you can always pass through Shanhaiguan to Guannei, and then pass it to Zhao Jin by fast horse, but now this road has been cut off.

The person in charge of this channel went directly to ask, if the Liaoxi border army dared to do anything inside, then the consequences had to be considered, but the envoy of the Liaoxi Jiangmen was also very frightened to explain that the Jianzhou Jurchens had blocked the front line of Guangning and Ningyuan, and it was not impossible to pass on the news, but the risk was too great, and the casualties would definitely be heavy.

The news was cut off and did not make Zhao Jiajun move, Zhao Jin's indifference is one thing, and the cavalry patrolling and detective has increased the frequency of activities, there are many people who will take risks in such a snowy weather, Zhao Jiajun is confident and confident, but the homework that should be done will not be left behind.

The cavalry of the Zhao family army in the direction of Baoding Mansion really found that there were more than 100 cavalry approaching from the west, according to the patrol cavalry, the elite of the more than 100 cavalry was not ordinary, and the rules of advance and retreat looked like Zhao Jiajun himself.
