The smoke obscured the sky and drew the attention of other Manchu towns to Kyoto's problems. But they simply can't provide timely support.

Lu Xiao can be called the mountain fire that was lit in a frenzy. At this time, it has become a prairie fire. This made all the surrounding tribes start to put themselves at risk. Once the fire gets completely out of control, it will not only be Kyoto that will be damaged.

Quite a few tribes have even hired shamans to start doing it. Try to make it rain and extinguish the fire. But Lu Xiao knew that the mountain fire had reached a certain level, and the general rain would not work at all.

Seeing that the team was finished, he then ordered everyone to return by land. A large number of war horses were obtained from Hetuala, and they had a lot of means of transportation. Therefore, they did not take the water route, but directly followed the road taken by the imperial Taiji army by land and marched towards the Ming Dynasty.

On the other side, Huang Taiji finally made a decision, he decided to carry out the plan that he couldn't help but have in his heart. It was mainly his allies who sent him a message, saying that they couldn't wait for Wang Shi to become the master.

is so affectionate and righteous, so that Huang Taiji feels that if he doesn't fight the Beijing Division, he really can't live up to the ardent expectations of his allies.

Huang Taiji's movements are also in the attention of Zhongyongwei.

"The movement of the Tartars is wrong, and they may have to go in the spirit of Jingshi."

"That's not exactly what Lord Lu expected. Notify the Jingshi side, it's time to do it. ”

Chongzhen is not the deaf and blind man in history now. He holds the factory guard, and there is also a report on the battlefield of the loyal guard. Whether it is the situation in the court or the situation on the battlefield, it is under his control.

However, Apocalypse's teachings before his death still had a little effect. Chongzhen is still a little self-aware now. He knew that he didn't know how to lead troops into battle. Therefore, it is easy not to interfere with the tactical arrangements of the loyal guards. But on the Jingshi side, he has been waiting for a long time.

The last instruction that the apocalypse left him was revenge. Take revenge on the entire unfaithful and unrighteous court. In the last time of Apocalypse's life, it can be said that he endured humiliation for Chongzhen.

Whether it was a murderer who assassinated him or a traitor who collaborated with the enemy and treason, he endured it. For the stability of the court, but also for his own reputation. He gave Chongzhen the opportunity for revenge. and told Chongzhen that when the Tartars went south, it was the best opportunity to take the opportunity to purge the Qing Dynasty. Now, the time has come.

Many ministers in the court felt that their days were like years, and they eagerly looked forward to the king's accession. The main reason was that they found that Chongzhen didn't trust them at all.

Except for some face-saving cutscenes. They are not given the slightest right or respect. There are even various excuses to make things difficult. Let many ministers feel that this emperor is not good, and it is not better to change one.

As everyone knows, Chongzhen's ideals are the same as them. This term of minister is not good, let's change it.

"Your Majesty, this is a secret letter from the capital that we have intercepted these days." Guo Zhen did not follow the loyal guards with the army this time. Instead, he stayed in Jingshi, controlled the East Factory, and cooperated with Jinyiwei. Dig deep into all kinds of acts of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.

Every secret letter sent by the Jingshi is actually under the control of the factory guard. It's just that most of the letters, the factory guard just checked the copy and then resent it. Mainly for the heart of Emperor Taiji.

After all, if Huang Taiji discovers that the allies in the capital have been purged, then he may change his target. That's right, luring Huang Taiji to attack Jingshi was part of the plan.

It was a bold, even crazy, decision. But it is also the most critical part of the whole plan. Lu Xiao had discussed it with Chongzhen a long time ago. For example, today's taxation and military affairs are extremely erosive. Coupled with the drought in the north, the grain harvest failed. The whole Ming morning was already panicked.

At this time, the imperial court needs to do something to cheer up the people. Let the people of Daming know that the Ming Dynasty is still stable enough. The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty can still fight. At the same time, it is also to deter the rogues from all over the world, so that they can see the combat power of the Ming army.

This is a political show, and the key to it is to annihilate the Emperor Taiji around the Jingshi. It's not defeated, or repulsed, it's total annihilation. Lu Xiao had already destroyed the foundation of the Tartars behind his back. The current Tartar is only supported by the army of Huang Taiji.

Destroy this army, and the remaining melons and dates in the depths of the mountains will not be able to become the climate. After a few years, they probably don't even know who they are.

Chongzhen also hesitated for a long time before agreeing to this plan. He is the emperor, and his perspective is different from Lu Xiao's. If the Tartar soldiers come to the Beijing Division, if they fail to achieve the predetermined goal, then he will be stinking for 10,000 years. But because of the teachings of the apocalypse, plus Lu Xiao's achievements in recent years. He still decided to believe Lu Xiao once.

Because with Lu Xiao's help, he now sees the true face of Da Ming. So, the heart is clear. Just like Lu Xiao said, the current Daming is already difficult to return, if you don't take medicine, I'm afraid you won't be able to catch that glimmer of life.

Now that Huang Taiji has decided to attack Jingshi. Then Chongzhen's side naturally has to be prepared.

This battle cannot be fought by the Loyal Guards alone. There are not enough of them, and Chongzhen is reluctant to let this strong army be consumed like this. He transferred a large number of troops from the Beijing camp, cooperated with some generals in the main battle, and redeployed the entire Beijing division.

At the same time, Chongzhen, who had money in his hand, gave a full amount of money to all the defenders. And made a promise to all the soldiers that if this battle is won, the three armies will be rewarded heavily.

Eat and drink enough, the money is in place, and the promise of promotion and fortune has arrived. There is no reason why these soldiers should not fight hard. The only thing that is not beautiful is that the defense map of the capital appeared in the secret letter intercepted by Jinyi Wei that night.

After Chongzhen read the secret report, he was both angry and helpless in his heart. Although he knew that the court had long been a sieve. However, the military aircraft such as the capital defense map could not be kept overnight, and it still made him completely desperate for the court.

"Locked them down?"

"Back to Your Majesty, all the ministers and thieves are under the control of the old slave. As long as His Majesty gave an order, the old slave immediately knocked them all out of prison. ”

Chongzhen thought for a moment and suddenly asked.

"Do we have enough money and food?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the grain is now under military control. It's enough for the current Jingshi to last for a year. As for money, there is still a lot of money obtained from Wei Zhongxian's house. That's enough for you to reward the three armies. ”

"Hehe, since the money is enough. Then wait a little longer, just like they're pigs, raising them for a few days. Anyway, there are no good days. ”

"Yes, the old slave obeys."

Guo Zhen took the order and left, and along the way, he always felt that this operation was somewhat familiar. After thinking about it, I suddenly found that this is not the pig raising method that Lu Xiao is best at. If you fancy a pig, don't kill it first. Wait until you are fat enough, or wait to eat meat, and then drag it out and kill it. That way you get the most meat and the freshest.

Thinking of this, Guo Zhen couldn't help but shake his head. Although Lord Lu is not by His Majesty's side, His Majesty is already in the shape of Lord Lu!
