Chapter 138: The Great Victory (Fifth Update)
Back in the cabinet, Liu Jian finally recovered some of his spirits, he knew that the Empress Dowager Zhang's enduring grief had a lot to do with what he said, rescuing the emperor was no longer the most important option at the moment, how to calm the demon was the most important thing.

Tianjin Wei can not be lost, the Beijing division must not go wrong, to stabilize the hearts of the people, to transfer troops to the king, in addition, but also to prepare for the worst, if the demon soldiers really brought the news that the emperor was captured, then immediately, a new enthronement ceremony will be held, His Royal Highness the Prince, that is, the weak Zhu Zaiyao, needs to be enthroned as the emperor immediately.
At this time, Liu Jian said: "Don't be in a hurry to transfer troops first, release the scouts first, all the scouts, including the Jinyi Guard, including the people from the East and West Factories, all of them will be released, and the chief military officer of the Shanhaiguan will enter Beijing immediately, and the three major battalions in Beijing will assist in the defense of Beijing, and the warrior battalion will be responsible for the defense of the palace, everyone...... Do you have any opinions? ”
Everyone was silent, this is obviously the best way, a hasty dispatch of troops will only give the other party a chance to take advantage of, since there is no rush to save the driver now, this is the best way.
The panic of the Beijing Division continued, especially the soldiers and horses of the Beijing Division began to move, and at first some people thought it was just a rumor, but now no one dared to laugh at this as a rumor.
So the atmosphere became tense, and there were already people who wanted to move west, and there were people who had nowhere else to go, waiting in horror for what might happen next.
In Beijing, the gates of each gate have been closed, and in this Beijing city, in addition to the inner city and the outer city, more people live on the outskirts of the city.
In the past 100 years, the scale of the city of Beijing has been expanding, the original Beijing city, has long been unable to accommodate such a population size, so the vast majority of poor households, are living outside the city, there are also markets, there are countless neighborhoods, but there is no city wall protection, the people in the city are still at ease, but the people outside the city, it feels that the day is precarious, outside this Chaoyang Gate, there are 17 neighborhoods, close to 60,000 or 70,000 people, some people pack up their burdens, go to the countryside for refuge, many people stay, but most of them are lifeless.
I don't know if the demon soldiers will come, if they do, I don't know what it will be like?
The panic is obvious, and even the market is full of doors, and the Zhao butcher who sells pork closes the stall early, and he can't help but curse in a low voice, he is actually bold, but he is not afraid of any demon soldiers, in his words, if the demon soldiers really dare to come, uncle, I dare to fight hard, but it is just a life, but although he said cruel words, he still sent his mother-in-law and son to the countryside, and returned to the workshop where he lived, but found that many people gathered at the gate of his house, all of them were neighbors, he greeted them, But I saw Mr. Zhao who gave the hall and said, "You are here, and I am waiting for you." ”
"What's wrong?" Mr. Zhao is his son's teacher, and Zhao Butcher has always been respected, he carried a few catties of pigs tied with wheat straw into the water, and said: "Good and decent, what are you looking for me to do?" ”
"For the sake of the demon soldiers, now that all the gates of the capital division are closed, we people are in no danger to defend, do you still know the changes in the civil fort? At that time, the Warat people hit the foot of the Jingshi, and our people outside the city suffered, I don't know how many people died at that time, let's think about it, only you are the most daring, if the demon soldiers come......"
Seeing these neighbors all looking at themselves with anticipation, Zhao Butcher couldn't help but scold: "Hmph, it's angry to say, this big court is really ridiculous, there are so many soldiers, and now that the demon soldiers are coming, they will turn us away......"
Mr. Zhao hurriedly said: "Be cautious, be cautious." ”
"Be careful." Zhao Butcher was angry, and continued with anger: "Now that my life is difficult to protect, what should I be cautious about?" It is said that the Son of Heaven is mediocre and the traitor is in charge, isn't that the case? It's really chilling to think about, when the demon soldiers are killed, our lives will be gone, what are we afraid of. ”
After hearing this, many people also nodded, and they all felt that what Zhao Butcher said made sense.
Mr. Zhao's face became embarrassed, and he wanted to refute, but he couldn't say it, so he sighed heavily before he said: "Yes, it's not a way to go on like this, I heard that the emperor is indeed a little stubborn, and ......."
The grievances of these poor people have long existed, and there must be an outlet for this dissatisfaction, and when everyone can't help but want to curse, suddenly a fast horse comes from a distance.
Now, when they hear a fast horse, many people can't help but brace their ears, but they don't know what bad news will come.
So at this time, many people followed the sound to the street, Zhao butcher took the lead, and sure enough, he saw the fast horse in the direction of Tianjin Wei swaggering through the market, this person not only rode the horse, but also shouted: "Great victory, great victory......
The rules of the government have always been like this, but whenever there is good news, it is necessary to 'report the good news', and the fast horse that reports the victory needs to shout all the way over.
Now hearing the victory, many people were shocked.
Then I heard the man continue to roar: "Three thousand demon soldiers are coming, Your Majesty personally led six hundred new troops of Zhenguo to defeat the enemy, Your Majesty defeated the demon soldiers, killed countless thieves, the demon soldiers were defeated, and they have been completely annihilated, long live my emperor!" ”
All of a sudden, the neighborhood was like a pot had exploded, and everyone was excited.
Great victory?
The demon soldiers were defeated?
Doesn't this mean that everyone can live in peace again?
Mr. Zhao was the most happy, and even his face became a little shiny, stroked his beard, couldn't stop laughing, shook his head and said, "Great, finally annihilated those hateful demon soldiers." Your Majesty has personally enlisted? Why doesn't the old man know? Yikes...... With 600, he annihilated 3,000 demon soldiers, tsk, this is really a blessing for His Majesty, it is the blessing of the ancestors, our Ming Dynasty is destined to prosper the country......"
Many people were also overjoyed, and they said yes, and some people were excited and inexplicable, smiling, but Zhao Butcher was not happy, but frowned, and said with suspicion: "I haven't heard of His Majesty's personal expedition before, let alone ...... I have long heard of the ability of those demon soldiers, it is simply invincible all over the world, in Quanzhou, tens of thousands of troops can't resist, isn't there still news that Tianjin Wei is vulnerable? How could they be wiped out in the blink of an eye? Isn't there something strange here? I don't look right, if that's the case, why is the court afraid of demon soldiers, how can there be a rout in Quanzhou? The Zhenguo New Army has some ability, and I know this, but if it is said that the 600 Zhenguo New Army can defeat 3,000 demon soldiers, I can't believe it, isn't it...... Lie. ”
In fact, everyone was overjoyed when they heard the news first, but when they were reminded by Zhao Butcher's words, they all immediately smiled and became suspicious.
