Li Xiao traveled all the way to the capital, and kept seeing more and more refugees. It seems that the wave of fleeing has been set off. The emperor's departure made the people of the capital completely lose their backbone. The Son of Heaven guards the country, and the death of the king is just a fart. The Tartar really hit, and the fuck ran faster than anyone else!

The speed of the march is accelerating, and if you reach the capital as soon as possible, the capital will be less damaged.

The ancient capital of the capital is too important to be preserved. In a big city without a government, Li Xiao didn't dare to imagine how chaotic it would be.

In the mouths of the people who ran out of the capital, Wang Tiqian already knew that the emperor was going south to Nanjing. This old guy is still loyal, urging Li Xiao to go south to protect the emperor, as for the capital, don't care. Li Xiao took his words, and he should be a fart.

Hurried to the city of the capital and saw Wu Sangui who came to greet him. Li Xiao's heart can be regarded as letting go! It's good that the Second Division has arrived, and the only mobile troops that can be mobilized now are Zu Dashou's Second Cavalry Division.

Although the letter to Geritu was sent ten days earlier than to Zu Dashou, it was considered that the organizational ability of the Mongols was far inferior to that of the Second Division. Li Xiao estimated that it would take a few days for Geritu to arrive.

As soon as he arrived in the capital, Wang Tiqian ran away. I don't know whether to go to the palace or to see his house on Chang'an Avenue.

"How's the situation in the capital?" Li Xiao glanced at the wide-open city gate, and the general guarding the city should be killed.

"The three battalions, the forbidden army all followed Banzai. In fact, Banzai left them here to guard the capital, but Banzai slipped away on the back foot when they walked on the front foot. Now in the entire capital, there are only two or three thousand old and weak remnants who can't walk. The gates of this city have been open these days, and the day before yesterday was when there were the most people, and today it will be much less.

Three days ago we fought a battle with the Tartars, killing more than 500 people. The Tartars retreated westward! Examination of the bodies revealed that these people were the Yellow Banner Cavalry. Wu Sangui stood on the carriage and practiced riding and squatting in the crotch pose, it was not bad, but it was a child of the military general's family, and the carriage swayed but his body was not very shaky.

"Three days ......! In other words, Huang Taiji is coming. "It didn't take three days to get to the capital from Bauhinia Pass, but Zhang Xianzhong was surrounded by a lot of chaotic people, and the speed of the march was about the same as climbing. It would be nice to be able to rush to the capital in three days!

"Into town!" Li Xiao gave an order and entered the capital with a guard of honor of 9,000.

The capital is indeed very chaotic, and it has reached the point of anarchy. Many families fled in a hurry, and no one took care of their property. The rats of the City Fox Society are very popular, and they pick on the rich families to attack. In broad daylight, blatantly moving things in other people's homes.

As soon as Li Xiao's soldiers entered the city, everyone froze. In the past few days, this is the first army to take the initiative to enter the capital, rather than taking the initiative to leave the city.

Some people who know the goods can see it at a glance, "Wearing a big cap, this is the Liao army, this is the Liao army!" ”

I have to say that the 9,000 honor guards trained by Sun Chengzong have a very high level of professionalism. Thick-soled leather boots stepped on the road, and the sound of footsteps was uniform. When they walked to Chang'an Avenue, Li Xiao specially let them fall 100 meters and walk forward.

The people of the capital were suppressed at once, and such a mighty army would definitely be able to defeat the Tartar soldiers. And I heard that the Liao soldiers specialized in fighting Tartars, and they never lost when they fought Tartars in Liaodong. It's much more powerful than the three battalions that only know how to bully the common people!

In today's capital, almost all the rich and wealthy dignitaries who can go are gone. Most of those who stayed were a group of ordinary people living in large courtyards. Anyway, there is no way to escape, and when you get to the south, there is no house, no land, and no place to stay. It's better to take advantage of these days to fight the autumn breeze on the rich.

In the past, the palace was guarded by the majestic forbidden army, but now there are only a few poor kittens at the door. It's good, the people are taken by the royal majesty, and no one dares to come to the palace to fight the autumn breeze. It's hard to say whether the eunuchs and palace maids who stayed behind were guarding and stealing.

"Finally in the capital!" Seeing the Daming Gate, Li Xiao got out of the carriage.

"Huh! Daming Gate, the old man thought that he would not be able to see it in this life and this life. Zhang Huangyan also got out of the carriage and looked up at the three words Damingmen with his hands behind his back.

"Forty-nine cities, forty-nine cities! Now it's like this! Li Xiao looked at the chaotic street, and the people with roe heads and rats couldn't tell what it tasted like. Some excited, some desolate.

"Post a notice for peace immediately! Everything is handled in accordance with the "Da Ming Law", and if there is adultery, captivity, and plundering the country, those who are difficult to make money will be killed. Zhang Huangyan instructed a small official behind him, and the little official immediately ran to the carriage to draft a notice.

"Quickly find Shuncheon Fu Yin, and if you can't find it, find those errands. In short, it is an official to become an official, and order in the capital must be restored as soon as possible. Zhang Huangyan gave orders one after another.

One after another, the soldiers followed. With Zhang Huangyan's command, he left after giving the salute, and the whole routine was like a rebellion. In order to stabilize the capital of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Huangyan had already prepared a draft on the road.

"Immediately close the nine gates, and order all the three major battalions and forbidden troops who have not escaped, and the five armies will report to us." This is an order from Li Xiao. Now it's time to organize people as soon as possible, maybe Huang Taiji will arrive tonight.

"Seal the treasury, and anyone who is found to have stolen the treasury will be killed!"

Li Xiao and Zhang Huangyan came to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, except for some servants, the rest of the people ran away. Liu Datong, the governor of the five armies, disappeared on the night of the emperor's departure from Beijing. Walking into the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, Li Xiao had a feeling that the trees were falling and scattered.

"Is it really providence?" The Ming Dynasty, which has been dignified for more than 200 years, has raised a group of people. One by one, they all said that they were willing to be His Majesty's dogs and horses, and his mother's dog also knew how to take care of the home. The Ming Dynasty is not finished playing, kidnapping the emperor kidnapping the emperor, open and slip. Could it be that the Zhu family's country is really exhausted?

"There is no providence in this world, and there is no number of breath. In the final analysis, the government needs to be balanced, and the interests of all strata of the country must also be balanced. The bad thing about the Ming Dynasty is that the civilian officials ruled the whole country. Since the country is ruled by them, then they will think about their own interests. The scholar does not pay food, and does not accept forced labor, these are all privileges.

They were privileged, nourished by the state. But other groups of people have suffered!

The warriors were oppressed by the literati, and the common people were exploited by the literati. Even the emperor had to rely on eunuchs to compete for power with the vast civil bureaucracy.

The imbalance in the distribution of benefits leads to the strong becoming stronger and the poor and the weak becoming poorer and weaker. Human nature is insatiable, and the Donglin Party will not feel that they have taken a lot of the country. They will only feel that they have received many benefits and need to pass on to their sons and grandchildren for all eternity. Children and grandchildren will always take advantage of the benefits and eat them all!

If this continues, the people at the bottom will not see hope. It's no wonder if the country doesn't finish playing!

If you look at this capital, isn't it ironclad evidence that the Ming Dynasty began to lose people's hearts? When a strong enemy comes, which military general is willing to die for the country. Which people are willing to relieve the country's difficulties? They all want to escape, they all want to go.

And what about the literati who get the most benefits? They don't think about the Ming Dynasty, they think about how to protect their own interests. Believe it or not, if Huang Taiji said that he could guarantee the interests of the Jiangnan gentry. Like the Ming Dynasty, the official gentry did not pay the grain and did not pay the poor, and these Donglin parties would turn their heads and go to protect the emperor Taiji.

Jiangshan Sheji is a fart in their eyes, and hundreds of millions of living beings are a fart in their eyes. In their eyes, they only have their own fields in the south of the Yangtze River, and they only spend silver in vain.

Take pity on me Daming, and devote the whole country to feeding such a group of white-eyed wolves. Kill people without blinking, eat people without salt. What is the innocence of the people, what is the innocence of the people! The more Zhang Huangyan spoke, the more excited he became, waving his hands like cramps, impassioned like a mad dog.

Li Xiao moved two steps to the side without a trace, this old guy's mental state is a little wrong, in case of illness, give yourself a mouthful, where can Lao Tzu find a rabies vaccine.
