……

When Lao Zhu and Zhang Tianlin discussed how to defend Datong.

Li Zicheng called Niu Jinxing alone in the quiet of the night.

What they said in the tent was unknown to the people.

I only know that when the next day was on the march, Li Yan died.

Song Xiance, who learned the news, was shocked!

But he didn't say anything, and he didn't ask Li Zicheng how Li Yan died.

Didn't ask Bull Venus either.

just silently packed his luggage and quietly left the army one night.

He has already seen through Li Zicheng, and even Li Yan can kill him, let alone him.

If you stay any longer, you will either surrender to the Qing army or die at the hands of your own people.

And when Li Zicheng got the news of Song Xiance's disappearance, he couldn't speak for a long time.

Just stand in place.

Then he said angrily.

"Do you think I'm wrong??! No!! That's right!! Li Yan should be killed!! He has a different heart!! Damn !! ”

However, Song Xiance couldn't hear it for a long time.

Only Niu Jinxing and Gu Junen stood silently beside and watched Li Zicheng be furious.

At this time, the mood of the two was extremely different, Niu Jinxing was extremely excited, because Li Yan was dead, and no one could stop him.

Although Song Xiance is gone, for him, it is the same whether there is Song Xiance or not.

But Gu Junen was full of disappointment, His Majesty actually made such a stupid move.

killed Li Yan based on just guesswork, forcing Song Xiance to leave.

Dashun, is this going to end......

……

"Report! The former Ming generals Li Jian and Wang Yue rebelled in Xuanfu and lowered their gold, and Bai Zongbing was killed and killed! ”

"General Wu was captured by Lu Zhenfei, the governor of Huai Yang in the Remnant Ming Dynasty!"

"General White Dove Crane died in Tianjin!"

"Baoding Mansion ......"

“……”

On the eighth day of the fifth month, Lao Zhu, who had just stayed in Datong for more than ten days, heard this bad news in the government office.

What surprised him was not that the Tartars fought so quickly, but that the generals surrendered so quickly!

Lao Zhu's face was unusually ugly.

These people are simply ashamed of his Ming courtiers!

Dashun is coming, you descend to Dashun, and he won't say anything, after all, Chongzhen is not very good to you.

You descend to the great shun, which is understandable.

But now that the Tartars are coming, you are descending the Tartars again??!

Could it be that Li Zicheng is not good for you?

You must know that Li Zicheng still reinstated them after they surrendered.

Delicious food and drink are offered.

The result was not satisfied, and the Tartars surrendered again!

What a bunch of white-eyed wolves that can't be raised!

Seeing that Lao Zhu was angry, Zhang Tianlin, who was sitting on the top seat, thought that he was also angry with those wall grasses.

Persuaded: "These people have nothing to worry about, even if they surrender to the Tartars, they will not be reused."

Zhang Tianlin is right, a group of repeated wall grasses will not be reused no matter where they are.

"The last general is just angry with these people, there is no courtesy, righteousness and shame at all, it is a shame for us Han people."

Lao Zhu replied angrily.

"Isn't that normal? There are many people, there will always be some scum, don't take it to heart, our top priority is to be prepared to face the Tartars. ”

After Zhang Tianlin finished speaking, he got up and walked to the map behind him.

Pointing to the Zhending Mansion, which is closest to Datong.

"This place has been broken by the Tartars, and the next step is probably for the Tartars to attack Datong."

"You need to pass on all battalions strictly, and then you must keep people from leaving your armor and patrol your respective city gates!"

"Whoa!"

Everyone present responded in unison.

Then the guards of each battalion also began to leave one after another, and only Lao Zhu stayed quietly in place.

And Zhang Tianlin watched Lao Zhu's movements and realized that he had something to say to him.

So he motioned to Lao Zhu and Zhang Heiyan and Ke Tianxiang to follow him to the back hall.

As soon as she sat down, Zhang Tianlin said.

"Tell me, what do you want to tell me?"

Seeing this, Lao Zhu didn't hesitate and said the worries he had always had in his heart.

"General, now that the generals of the Ming Dynasty in Zhili have all lowered their gold, will we have a ...... here?"

Although Lao Zhu didn't speak, Zhang Tianlin knew that Lao Zhu was talking about Jiang Ji.

After all, they only have Jiang Jian here who is a soldier of the Ming Dynasty.

After thinking about it, Zhang Tianlin replied categorically.

"Ginger inlay is impossible! He will never surrender to the Tartars, and his brother Jiang Lin was also persuaded by me to surrender, and he will never do such unfaithful and unrighteous things. ”

After listening to Zhang Tianlin's words, Lao Zhu couldn't say anything more.

Besides, it is to refute Zhang Tianlin's face.

"Go back and prepare the city wall defense with peace of mind."

Zhang Tianlin waved his hand.

"Yes."

Seeing Zhang Tianlin say this, Lao Zhu had no choice but to retreat.

But he was vigilant in his heart.

It's fine if Jiang Ji doesn't rebel, but once he rebels, Shanxi will be dangerous!

You must know that Jiang Xuan and his brother Jiang Lin are in Datong, and his younger brother Jiang Xuan is in Yanghe.

And the Jiang family has been operating in Shanxi for a long time, and the soldiers who surrendered in each town have their people.

If you rebel, it's unimaginable!

……

On the tenth day of the fifth month, Lao Zhu inspected the West City Gate every day that night.

Although he doesn't have to inspect every day as a mighty general, it's a good thing that the Tartars are getting closer and closer lately, and it's good to be more tightly defended.

Wouldn't it be terrible that the enemy would not be under the city until they would get the news?

Just as Lao Zhu was inspecting the wall, he heard a burst of cheers from under the city.

Turning his head to look down, he found that Jiang Ji was treating the guards with some family members pushing wine and food.

At this time, Jiang Jian at the bottom also saw Lao Zhu on the wall.

shouted: "General Zhu! The vigil is so hard, let's go down and drink wine together to warm up!! ”

Looking at Jiang Zhu's strange behavior, Lao Zhu's already vigilant expression became even more solemn.

This ginger is not good to stay at home and enjoy, what are you doing here.

He didn't believe that Jiang Jian came here to bring them wine.

I wanted to refuse, but when I saw the soldiers around me, they all looked salivating.

I also understand that everyone has been tired lately.

If you refuse at this time, I am afraid that the soldiers will complain more than once.

"Good! Thank you, General Jiang, I'll have the things brought up later. ”

After speaking, Lao Zhu whispered to the soldiers beside him.

"You hold my token and quickly transfer the troops!"

"Yes, General!"

Then Lao Zhu said to the other soldiers.

"Don't drink later! At this moment, it is the time to defend the city, drinking and making mistakes! ”

"But it's a pity to take it first, and then drink it when you get off the job, it's definitely not okay now! Did you hear me clearly? ”

"Hear me clearly!"

Fortunately, the people who changed the guard today were all brought by Lao Zhu, and they were all willing to obey him.

Otherwise, Lao Zhu's words may not be able to order them.

At this time, when Jiang Jian heard this, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes.

After a while, several soldiers and Jiang Jian's family came up with wine and food.
