Chapter 441 The border situation is urgent

The border love spread to Ouchi.

Chongzhen hurriedly summoned Wang Qia, the secretary of the military department, and Liu Ce, who was in charge of the military affairs of Ji, Liao, and Baoding, to enter the palace to discuss matters.

Wang Qia was a jinshi in the thirty-second year of Wanli, and as soon as he took office, he encountered a major event to appease Lin Dan Khan.

He was not familiar with the border situation, so he listened to Wang Xiangqian for everything, and set a huge amount of reward.

Liu Ce was a jinshi in the twenty-ninth year of Wanli and served as a squire in the military department. was excluded by the eunuch party and went into hiding, and was only used by Chongzhen not long ago.

These two people have a common characteristic, they are both new to office, or after Chongzhen ascended the throne.

Faced with the information reported by the Heigu Pass guard, Wang Qia was not sure:

"According to Xuanda intelligence, Lin Dan Khan is in the Qinghai area, and it is impossible to appear in Miyun. It is very likely, as Yuan Chonghuan said, that the emperor Taiji entered the Kou Jing Division. ”

"What is the opinion of the Qing family?" Chongzhen asked.

"The minister thinks that the elite of Xuanda can be transferred to Miyun to expel the Mongols."

Wang Qia thought for a moment and replied.

"This ......"

Chongzhen wants to say that you are not stupid, if it is really Huang Taiji who uses Subudi as the direction to import Ji Town, you transfer Xuanda's elite soldiers to Ji Town, what if Lin Dan Khan turns his face and invades Xuanda?

As a monarch, he really can't say this.

Chongzhen couldn't speak, but Liu Ce didn't have these scruples, and said directly: "Lin Dan Khan is eyeing him, if the Xuanda elite soldiers are transferred away, there will be no one to deter Lin Dan Khan." ”

"Order, Yuan Chonghuan led the Guanning army to aid Jizhen."

Chongzhen frowned: "The Guanning army is good at fighting, whether it is Huang Taiji or Lin Dan Khan, they should be able to expel it." ”

Wang Qia and Liu Ce looked at each other, unable to speak.

The Guanning army is indeed good at fighting, but it has been in arrears for several months, and it has just made up the salary, so I don't know how much combat strength is left.

Yuan Chonghuan has only been in office for three or four months, and it is unknown how many soldiers and horses he can mobilize.

"What? Have a question about what I said? Chongzhen frowned.

"I don't dare." Wang Qia and Liu Ce responded in unison.

They still know what the elite soldiers of Xuanda are.

At present, the only convenient elite is the Guan Ning army outside the country.

Do you want to transfer the Golden State Army?

When they arrived, the daylily would be cold.

In addition to transferring the Ning army into the customs, Chongzhen also asked the chief soldier Hou Shilu to guard Shunyi, and the chief soldier Wang Wei to guard Miyun.

I don't expect them to be able to resist an enemy of unknown origin, at least to be able to hold the city before the Guanning army comes to help.

The envoy of the imperial court soon arrived at Shanhaiguan.

Yuan Chonghuan and Zhao Shujiao are there.

"The imperial court still can't figure it out, and it even thinks that Lin Dan Khan has entered the court."

Yuan Chonghuan was a little depressed: "What is this called!" The people I sent to Jizhen bombarded me back, but I didn't even know the real situation. ”

I wrote three times before and after, and each time I was like a mud cow entering the sea.

"Inspector, it's come to this, it's too late to say this."

Zhao Shujiao said: "It's better to hurry up and come to the rescue, so as not to have an accident with the Beijing Division." ”

"It makes sense, immediately convene the generals to discuss the matter of sending troops."

Yuan Chonghuan nodded: "The situation is unknown, I don't know how many troops Huang Taiji will send, let's be careful." ”

The Guanning army had already assembled at Shanhaiguan, but it was scattered all over the border and needed some time to gather.

In the afternoon of the same day, the generals of the Guanning Army gathered at the Shanhaiguan Governor's Mansion.

"In the direction of Jinzhou Town, Yang Shuai is in big trouble."

Huang Degong said: "Dongyu Amin asked his younger brother Derge to loot the people's grain and expel the people to Haizhouwei, with the intention of containing Yang Shuai. ”

"This is the case, we don't know how many people were left behind and how many people were sent out!"

Yuan Chonghuan's expression was serious, "What are your opinions?" ”

Because the Houjin cavalry scavenged grain everywhere and drove the people to Haizhou, Yang Chengying's meticulous work was indirectly unable to penetrate Shenyang.

Liu Xingzuo and other main forces of the Han army were in Phoenix, and they didn't know much about the situation in Shenyang.

Yang Chengying didn't know the strength of the enemy, and Yuan Chonghuan didn't know it.

"Amin can think of such a vicious strategy, I think there are definitely a lot of troops sent by Jianyu."

You Shilu said: "Our army needs to be dispatched as a whole in order to match it. ”

Before the words fell, a cold voice came: "Are you taking His Majesty's words as a deaf ear?" ”

The generals trembled.

The person who spoke was none other than Liu Yingkun, the eunuch guarding the town.

Yuan Chonghuan couldn't ignore him, turned his head and asked, "Why did Gonggong Liu say that?" ”

"Humph! Your Majesty's will is clear that you will quickly rescue Jizhen. ”

Liu Yingkun said coldly: "You guys are here to discuss and discuss, and the whole army has to be dispatched, a distance of three hundred and sixty miles from Shanhaiguan to Jizhen, so that you can get to Jizhen when you can get to it!" ”

"This ......"

Yuan Chonghuan wanted to refute, but felt that there was some truth in Gonggong Liu's words. However, there were too few troops and horses, and it was too risky.

There are too many sorties, and it does take a lot of time.

Weighing the pros and cons, he listened to Zhao Shu's teaching: "Supervisor, please allow me to lead four thousand cavalry to go first and rush to Zunhua to defend the city." ”

The cavalry traveled day and night, and could reach Zunhua in a few days.

"You can't go straight to Zunhua, you need to pay attention to rest."

Yuan Chonghuan had an idea in his heart: "You can only go as far as Santun Camp, and you have to unsaddle your horse and rest." If you can't, don't lead the army to Zunhua, but go to a nearby place to rest. ”

"Got it, Overseer." Zhao Shujiao got up.

"Remember, don't be pushy. The army was exhausted and had difficulty fighting the enemy. ”

"Yes, the last general will go and prepare, and set off tonight."

"Okay."

Zhao Shujiao hugged his fists at Yuan Chonghuan and the generals, and turned to leave.

Yuan Chonghuan's heart suddenly moved, and he got up and called Zhao Shujiao.

"Is the Overseer still in business?" Zhao Shujiao turned around.

"Uh...... Be careful. Yuan Chonghuan admonished.

"Yes!" Zhao Shujiao hugged his fists and took another step.

Looking at the back of his comrades, Yuan Chonghuan hugged his fists.

"The rest of the generals returned to the camp to gather their troops and horses."

Yang Chengying ordered: "Then pull out and rescue Ji Town!" ”

"Yes!"

Just when Zhao led 4,000 iron cavalry to Zunhua, and Yuan Chonghuan led the army to follow up, tragedy after tragedy was staged in various places north of Haizhou Wei and south of Liaoyang.

Because the food stored in the family was almost plundered by the Houjin soldiers, many people immediately ran out of cooking at home.

Forced by hunger, many families had to dig leaves and young grass from budding trees to satisfy their hunger.

A few of the more ingenious people hid part of the grain in the cellar in advance when the Later Jin army was looting grain, but this action did not bring them good luck.

Other people who were desperately hungry knew how they could hold on to food that they still had in their homes. Someone took the lead in snatching and sparked a large-scale brawl.

But what if you get food?

The iron hooves of the Houjin army drove them all south.

Just like a wave, turning the relatively small Golden State Army into a flat boat, constantly jolting.

At the head of Haizhou City, looking at the people who kept coming to defect, all of them were in rags, Yang Chengying shook his head helplessly.

He turned his head to look at the people who were repairing the city, but he saw something that made him very angry!
