The Dongying naval army that landed in Jiaodong Bay was very fast, and it took less than two days to approach the capital. There are only more than 30,000 troops in the capital, 70,000 Beijing troops and Jinyi guards who have not used firearms.

Yu Jiajun at Juyong Pass resisted desperately for less than two days, and was forced to return to Beijing to rescue by the Dongying Navy in Jiaodong Bay.

Retreat one hundred and twenty miles to the south and abandon the defense line of Juyong Pass.

On the first day of October, Yujia's army set up an ambush with Changping at night, annihilating 3,000 enemies, and the offensive was suspended.

The good times were only a day, and Tsarist Russia attacked again, and the Yu army and the Beijing army suffered countless casualties.

On the third day of October, the Empress Dowager Lin died, the cause of death was unknown, and it was too late to hold a funeral for the Empress Dowager at this time, so she could only be buried hastily.

On the fourth day of October, a foreigner in the eastern suburbs of the alley injured the people with a homemade firearm and was killed by Jinyiwei on the spot. Within two hours, the Foreigner Lane was blocked, and no entry or exit was allowed without the permission of Honglu Temple.

On the fifth day of the first month of October, the Metropolitan Procuratorate participated in Yu Jingning's book of "improper defense and loss of ancestral land", when Yu Zhiwei was still under fire outside the capital, and had no time to take care of the internal strife in the imperial court.

The first snow had fallen in the capital, and everyone's hearts were soaked, and He Xiao, who was sitting on the throne, frowned, and threw Yu Jingning's recitals to the ground one by one.

Strictly speaking, this is the first time he has been in charge alone.

"I've read everything I said." He Xiao looked down, and always felt that every courtier below knew more than him, "Who of you can tell me, what is going on?" ”

A group of officials from the Metropolitan Procuratorate stood together, looked at He Xiao's expression, and didn't understand what he meant, so they all stood still.

He Xiao's face was even worse, Xiao Ye glanced at his master's face, shook off the dust, and said: "Who wrote the chapter, just stand up and explain it to the emperor, is it possible to dare to do it all?" ”

The officials looked at each other for a long time, and finally stood up and looked at He Xiao deeply.

This guy doesn't know which camp it is, he participated in the eunuch party when the eunuch party was in power, and later participated in the new faction when the new faction and the eunuch party were in balance, and then when the eunuch wall fell down and everyone pushed it, he naturally pushed the eunuch party to it. This guy's mind is really hard to guess, and at this juncture, Yu Jingning is actually involved again.

"If you go back to the emperor, when the king of Pingshuo went north to Juyong Pass, he boasted that he could hold it, and the second ordnance department tried its best to support it, and the household department also allocated money to them like flowing water." This Yanguan frowned as he spoke, and his expression became more and more similar to He Xiao's, "But the King of Pingshuo and the Northwest Army are still defeated, and now they are about to endanger the capital." When the Yu family army solved the trouble in Jiangnan, he didn't see the prince like this......"

"Vertical nonsense." When Tan Huaiyu heard this, he stepped forward and waved at He Xiao, "Emperor Qiqi, at the beginning, the Japanese were not regular troops, they were just bandits, and the rebellious army was just the guards of Tuntian in the past, so naturally they could not be compared with the brave and warlike Northwest Army. Now the capital is attacked on both sides, and Tsarist Russia and Dongying sent the elite of the elite, if they don't retreat south to defend, is it difficult to watch Dongying land from Jiaodong Bay and then approach the capital? The Dongying army has now entered Tianjin! ”

Tan Huaiyu has always been like this, he can be gentle and elegant on weekdays, but when it comes to the critical moment, he is unambiguous and goes straight to the point.

The official was still aggressive: "Since you want to beware of the Dongying army, why don't you divide the troops?" It stands to reason that our army is on the defensive side, and Juyong Pass is also Xiongguan, even if half of the men and horses are divided, they should be able to hold it! ”

Sun Hefeng, the secretary of the military department who was standing on the side, snorted and said with a smile: "Young man, you can't say that, you have lived for more than 20 years in your life, and you have seen several wars, except for the eastern suburbs, you have seen foreigners a few times, and you have never touched the firecracker, but you have ever seen a cannon." Although the old man has never been on the battlefield, he is a horseman who talks on paper, but he also knows that the battlefield is changing rapidly, and you don't know how to fight as soon as you touch your mouth. ”

The official was choked by these two people and couldn't speak, but just shook at He Xiao: "The minister's duty is to impeach, and now he is just doing his duty as a minister." As for the side, please ask the emperor to decide. ”

Xiao Ye looked at this group of people who were arguing in the court, and was busy playing a round: "Ladies and gentlemen, don't be impatient, now that the Northwest Army has retreated to the south of Juyong Pass, it is useless to say more." ”

"Defeat and retreat, since it is defeat, it must be punished." He Xiao still had Fang Cai's expression, as if Fang Cai's words Sun Hefeng and Tan Huaiyu's words were just a gust of wind, and even Xiao Ye's round field didn't seem to have any effect, "What else do you say about the Northwest Army?" It's better to call the Yu family, if something really happens, after all, they still listen to King Pingshuo, and they won't listen to me. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions were awe-inspiring.

At the beginning, the eunuch party covered the sky with one hand, but now that the eunuch party has been defeated, doesn't the emperor think that it should be the Yu family who covers the sky with one hand?

"Your Majesty, the ancients Zeng Yun: 'If you listen to both, you will be clear, and if you believe partially, you will be dark', and the emperor must not listen to the words of one family." Chen Hui led the group of people to kneel down again, "Now is wartime, we must not cause internal strife and renew incidents." ”

Tan Huaiyu also knelt on the ground with his neck stalked, and actually sneered - he knew too well the state of Yu Jingning after Yu Pu's death, He Xiao almost acquiesced to this incident at the beginning, and the two generations of the Yu family even gave up their lives for the sake of Daheng, but he Xiao was suspected by He Xiao until now, which is really too chilling: "If the emperor talks like this, he is not afraid of chilling the hearts of the front-line soldiers!" At the beginning, Song died in the Yuan Dynasty because there were no soldiers available, and there was no army to come out. Daheng has been heavy on literature and light on martial arts for so many years, hasn't the emperor learned half a lesson from this? Now is the time of life and death, no one is missing for the general, we are all standing here now are scholars, if the emperor does not believe the group of people who are still fighting bloodily in Jiayuguan, which one can still retreat from the enemy army with the emperor? ! ”

Tan Huaijue's words were sincere, and he almost cried blood. Since he was like an official, he has always been so outspoken and straight to the point, whether he is a six-pin Dali Temple who has just entered Dali Temple, or a cabinet minister who has long held real power.

But He Xiao just couldn't listen to these words, and the more others persuaded him, the more he felt that others looked down on him.

"Okay, good, Tan Qing said it well!" He Xiao stood up from the throne and applauded Tan Huaiyu again and again, "It's really good to equate me with the faint monarch of the dead country." In this case, it is better to go to the edict and think carefully about how to give me advice. ”
