At this time, it happened that the good news that Ashan had conquered Tongzhou came that the road to the Daming Jingshi had been completely opened.

Huang Taiji still remembers his father's teachings: "The Ming Dynasty is very big, it is advisable to cut its wings and slowly draw it." ”

However, the situation was pressing, so he turned his heart on it and led his army to the south. On the day when the second dragon raised its head in the second month of the second lunar month, Huang Taiji and Dabeile Ashan joined forces and came to the city of Beijing.

In fact, the creation of the city is inseparable from the support of the surrounding villages and rivers, and people and markets constitute the most important conditions for the city, and then the construction of the city wall gives the concept of the city.

During the period when Huang Taiji led the army to make trouble in the north of Beijing, Daming was not idle, and he didn't even have time to panic, but under the auspices of the two brothers, he was preparing against time.

Of course, the main thing is to preside over the overall situation.

Because since he learned that Huangtaiji made a detour to Mongolia, conquered the three Great Wall passes of Gubei, Xifeng, and Da'an, and led the army into the Great Wall, Tianqi suddenly collapsed as if his faith had collapsed, and his body was much weaker.

Fortunately, Zhang Yan was gentle and virtuous, and Xue Fang Liusong tried his best to treat and recuperate, so he could barely support it.

As for the government, it can only be entrusted to Chongzhen.

Fortunately, Daming's side did not suddenly enter the customs of Jurchen, so that the wolf ran into the frenzy.

Chongzhen resolutely picked up the beams of this building that was about to fall.

He first asked the Apocalypse to issue an edict in the name of the emperor's younger brother: to clear the walls of these population gathering places.

Some of them entered the Jingshi, and some of them were orderly resettled in the rear towns.

The Jurchen Jiannu is menacing. Daming Jingshi, be ready for battle.

The ice and snow have not yet melted, and there are not many crops in the field, even if Huang Taiji wants to destroy it, he has no way to start, and it is impossible to turn over the land several times.

The vulgar and delicate technical work of ploughing the land is not the specialty of the Jurchens.

Their specialty is fishing, hunting, fishing, hunting. For thousands of years, from the end of the face to the love of the new, it is all right.

In the eyes of the Jurchens, although the first sight of the Ming Jingshi was very huge, and although the vicissitudes and majesty precipitated by time shocked them, they were undoubtedly a beast, waiting for the fate of being hunted.

Under the auspices of Shigejin as the king of Shin, Kyoshi did not argue, but silently waited for the approach of his prey.

In the past, the brocade guards who hid in the world have become the role of walking the streets and alleys to appease the people.

Whether it is a flying fish suit or an embroidered spring knife, they do not reject this change in the slightest, but enjoy it.

The people had plenty of food, tall walls, and wide moats.

There is also a spirited army guarding, what is there to worry about?

Without the need for the government to initiate, many young and strong people spontaneously took to the streets and asked the government to join the war.

The Ministry of War is worried about having no place to recruit soldiers, the Ministry of Engineering is worried that it can't find anyone to build fortifications, and the Ministry of Rites is probably worried that it has nowhere to reason...... The ministries gladly regarded the enthusiasm of the people as their own merit and reported it through the noon gate.

All the officials were stopped at the noon gate, because Chongzhen was wearing a bright bag armor, and he was left there to act as a door god. Da Hei is playful by nature, and the noon gate has never been so lively, so happy that it sniffs and smells there.

Ergou and Xiaobai squatted on Chongzhen's left and right, and their fierce appearance was more powerful than the stone lion in front of Taihe's door.

The people have nothing to do, and they always like to come to the noon gate to have a stroll these days.

The noon gate of the original valley has become a crowd because of this.

In the middle of the noise, there is some quietness. Chaos has its own order. When the people saw His Royal Highness King Xin standing proudly with the iron spear of the locust heroic, as majestic as Mount Tai, they had nothing to worry about.

Qianmen Street, which is already bustling, is even more crowded during this time.

The favorite place for the young master to go is still the Jiangnan Inn, and most of the peddlers and pawns also gather here.

A topic about whether to go or stay has been debated here for more than half a month.

Some said: "Shuntianfu does not need to be guarded, why should the existing six departments of Tianfu be abandoned?" ”

Some said: "Shuntianfu must be guarded, even if Yingtianfu is the capital to build another Ming, but will that Daming still be the Ming that we are loyal to?" ”

A few days before these people were talking, Chongzhen sat in a private room specially separated from the second floor in disguise and listened, and he was somewhat relieved that the Ming scholars had finally begun to focus on the actual discussion of the problem.

In particular, most of those who hold the second view advocate resolutely defending Suncheonfu.

The reason is very simple: the ancestral territory should be defended to the death, not the size of people. Chongzhen has always believed that the vast territory and strong spirit, as well as the long-standing civilization, are all precious treasures handed down by the Chinese ancestors.

Looking at the earth, there are only two races that have been circulating for 5,000 years or even longer, the "Chinese".

The Chinese, the Central Plains, and the Chinese also.

Most people support sticking to Beizhili, after all, even if Jiannu enters the customs, it is destined to not stay for a long time.

"There are precedents and lessons to be learned." This point of view of the adherents is not very fond of listening to Chongzhen.

Any military action by nomads to break through the Great Wall is a history of blood and tears of an agrarian people.

For a person like Chongzhen, who loves the country very deeply, it is simply a shame.

"The reason why I took the initiative to launch the battle of Jisi is to do my best to ensure that this kind of thing never happens again." Shigejin clenched the teacup in his hand, and the attendants immediately sensed his anger.

Shi Heng and Li Mingrui glanced at each other, knowing that it was time for him to appear, so he stood up and walked outside.

The Donglin scholars, who were arguing just now, were silent for a moment, and there was an extremely enthusiastic uproar.

"Senior Brother Time! Brother Mingrui! "The scholars all bowed down.

The two were fully aware of the contention and therefore did not need to be explained.

All the scholars bowed slightly, waiting for the two to decide.

From the Donglin scholars with low eyes and skills to the officials with grassroots experience, the two have planted paddy fields and cut wheat with farmers, sorted out many written materials with Hanlin, and served as county officials to observe and judge cases.

The rich experience also strengthened the hearts of the two. Stick to it or move south. The two have undoubtedly stood out from a large group of Donglin scholars who only know how to talk and become pragmatic models.

The two looked at each other again and nodded to each other, and Shi Heng took the lead in saying: "The Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies!" The emperor and the king of letters have both said that they swear to live and die with Jingshi! Don't hesitate any longer! ”

Li Mingrui said: "Even His Royal Highness King Xin is on duty at the noon gate, and even the first assistant Lord Yang He and the officials of the six ministries are not afraid of the cold and set up a pavilion outside the noon gate to run the government, what kind of face do we have to argue here?" ”
