So he didn't stay at home and say anything, but went to the city defense camp.

Now the whole capital is panicked.

There are already quite a few people going south.

From Xiongshan Pass, Jinshan Pass to the south to Yuping Pass, it was only three days, and on the twenty-first day of the first month, Yuping Pass fought.

The DPRK and China have urgently dispatched troops and horses from the south to the north, but it will take time.

At the same time, His Majesty is going to tour the south.

Who doesn't know what that means.

On the twenty-second day of the first month, Su Nancheng sent away the female scrolls and children of Chengkanghou's mansion.

Left behind was Cheng Kanghou, along with his three sons and six grandsons.

Cheng Kanghou did not advocate how to fight, but he also did not advocate retreat. Maybe this old minister's heart is also very complicated.

On the twenty-third day of the first month, the jade screen was broken. The news was sent back to the capital the next day.

On the twenty-fourth day of the first month, the emperor officially decided to tour the south.

With his concubines and princes. There are also loyal ministers and old ministers.

Su Nancheng did not follow the royal driver this time, and His Majesty only brought Yu Linwei and a small part of the city defense battalion soldiers and horses. Maybe he wants to leave some fighting power for the capital.

Su Nancheng stood on the south gate and watched the royal car walk away.

Then he turned and looked north.

I can't see anything, but I know in my heart that the north at this time is in the midst of war.

I don't know how long the army will be able to move south.

In fact, it is very easy for Su Nancheng to leave now, but for some reason, he chose to stay.

Of course, there are many people who choose to stay.

It's not necessary at all, is it?

He can also live well in the south, and it will be impossible for the Beiyi people to fight for a while. Absolutely......

But when it came, he didn't choose that. Maybe it's because there is still some unwillingness in my heart, and there is still a trace of blood on my body.

On the twenty-sixth day of the first month, the Beiyi army crossed the Fen River.

After crossing the Fen River, there is no danger to defend in the hinterland of the Central Plains.

All the towns along the way were routed on all fronts.

Helian Yao led a team of soldiers and horses from Jincheng to Gyeonggi.

On the twenty-ninth day of the first lunar month, a large army approached the city.

Gyeonggi has soldiers and horses, and now more than half of them are in the capital. If there is still a place to defend the hinterland of the Central Plains, there is only one capital.

Helian Yao's army is claimed to be 100,000, and there have been many injuries in the month since the south, and the actual number is about 70,000.

But the other team of Beiyi soldiers and horses from Luyang also had fifty or sixty thousand.

In fact, there are not many people compared to Dayuan's army.

It's just that Dayuan's army is now like a plate of scattered sand, and it can't be cohesive at all.

But every warrior in Beiyi is a wild wolf.

On the north city gate, Su Nancheng followed He Dudu and others to look at the army outside the city.

It's false to say not to be nervous.

He is not a talent who has been through the world, even if he has more than ten years of different experiences than others, he is still just an ordinary person.

】

But in addition to fear, he also has an inexplicable firmness.

Not sure why.

Maybe he will lose or die, but he still doesn't want to go.

At least not want to leave now.

The nine gates of the capital were jointly commanded by the governor of Hedu, General Liu, General Wan, and General Pei.

Sunan Cheng was assigned to the West City Gate.

In fact, there are a lot of arrows stored in the capital, and now the army in the entire north is probably in the best state of Gyeonggi.

They at least have enough to eat.

His Majesty's southern tour was quiet, so it did not let all the soldiers know.

Therefore, many people still have the intention of protecting the king.

General Xiang's soldiers and horses have already gone north, and if the capital can withstand ten days, there is every chance to drive the Beiyi people away.

Ten days......

On the night of the twenty-ninth day of the first lunar month, the great battle began.

The battles in the era of cold weapons were particularly brutal and bloody.

There are scenes of flesh and blood flying everywhere. Su Nancheng was very uncomfortable, but he did not retreat firmly.

Now it is not able to hold out, and the soldiers in the city shoot arrows on the city walls and defend the city gates.

But the Beiyi people are extremely fierce, and it is fatal to fight.

It was only the first night, and the West City Gate was almost broken several times.

At the time of the Li people, the two armies tacitly agreed to cease fighting.

Everyone needs to rest.

Sunan Cheng went down the city wall and watched the soldiers with weak hands and feet change to guard the city gate.

Someone brought down the comrades who had been killed by bows and arrows from below on the city walls.

Within the city walls, corpses were everywhere.

At dusk on the thirtieth day of the first lunar month, the south gate of the capital was knocked.

No one expected that the emperor of the southern tour would return.

Not voluntary, of course.

Instead, he was 'invited' back by Fei Jiu.

Fei Jiu's counterinsurgency army also had more than 20,000 people, and he met the emperor who wanted to tour the south and directly admonished him.

The emperor only brought a few thousand soldiers and horses, and he never dreamed that he would meet Fei Jiu.

Fei Jiu has nothing to worry about, but now that the capital is about to break, what are you afraid of?

In desperation, the emperor had no choice but to return to Beijing again.

When Su Nancheng heard about it, it was already late at night.

The battle at the West Gate was fierce, and he rode alone to meet Fei Jiu.

Fei Jiu personally sent the emperor into the palace.

and asked the emperor to come to the city in person.

In this way, the soldiers can be motivated, and the morale of the army will be greatly increased, which will be even more beneficial to the defense of the city.

When Sunan Cheng rushed to the palace, he encountered this scene.

In this regard, other courtiers also agreed.

Since the southern tour has not been completed, and it will not be possible, then hold the capital.

Of course, the civil servants are more agreeable not to go to the south, who wants to leave their homes and careers behind?

The old emperor was so angry that he wanted to die, but at this time, how could he dare to say no?

But it was impossible to get him to come to the city in person.

He didn't dare.

"I will abdicate immediately and pass on the throne to the crown prince. The prince is young, and it's time to contribute to my Dayuan! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent for a moment.

But there is no other way but to accept it.

Extremely simple succession, there is no need to do anything, the emperor personally wrote the edict and covered it with a jade seal.

The Nine Emperors, who had been the crown prince for only a few months, are now taking office as emperor.

He didn't want to go to the city either, but Fei Jiu was more direct: "Your Majesty, please, if Your Majesty can't, you will abdicate and pass on the throne." The prince still has! ”

What else can the new emperor say?

was driven out of the palace and went up to the north gate.

After leaving the palace, Sunan Cheng spoke to Fei Jiu: "Why did you come back......

"What else is there to say? It's just a fight to the death. It's just that you haven't been on the battlefield, so why don't you leave? Fei Jiu asked.

Su Nancheng shook his head: "I can't tell you clearly, in fact, I should go." Can...... Think about it, maybe there is the general you told me about back then, right? This Dayuan is not interesting, and the emperor is not interesting. But I was born in the capital, and this is my home. Do nothing and let it perish? I'm just a little reluctant. ”

"Hahahaha! Well, since you are not reconciled, you will do it. It's a big deal. Fei Jiu patted him on the shoulder with relief in his eyes: "Go for it!" If you can't die, you'll be on the rise, and no one can stop you. ”

"The same goes for you. As long as we don't die, there is always a chance to reclaim together. Sunan Cheng said.

Fei Jiu dared to persuade the emperor to come back, and obviously thought about the consequences.

The two men looked at each other and smiled, and they parted.
