After receiving the order, Jiang Yuan didn't dare to stop for a moment. Go straight to Shandong. In addition to the six battalions of the Beijing Division, among the soldiers and horses of all walks of life in the world, only the reserve army in these two places is the most elite.

Within a few days, Shandong's reserve army moved when they heard the order, and the two generals Yu and Xu immediately set off with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to defend the Beijing division.

General Zhang of Jiangsu and Zhejiang had long been ready to go north, and as soon as he saw Yu Qian's token and documents, he immediately ordered all the armies to pull out the camp, and he didn't bother to say a few words to Jiang Yuan.

After all the military affairs were explained, he remembered something, pulled Jiang Yuan and whispered: "Brother, if we go, the area around Jiangsu and Zhejiang will be empty. But I've heard recently...... There are a lot of people from the rivers and lakes gathered in Jiangling City, there are thousands of people, and almost all the sects in the southern provinces have come, what are they going to do at this juncture?"

Jiang Yuan was taken aback, it was not trivial for thousands of people from the rivers and lakes to gather in Jiangling City, especially at such a critical moment, didn't Uncle Shi know what they were going to do?

In a hurry, Jiang Yuan couldn't care about anything else, hurriedly bid farewell to General Zhang, and rode straight to Jiangling City.

As soon as I arrived at the Fu Mansion, I saw a big righteous flag set up in front of the house, and the big book on both sides of the righteous word "Rather go to the country for the broken head than to obey the people and seek perfection", the meaning of the words can be known without asking. Jiang Yuan calmed down a little and pushed the door in.

Fu Fuzhong has long been overcrowded, since Fu Hengguang issued a hero post calling on the martial arts to go to Beijing to help the Ming army break the enemy, and people have been coming to join in the past few days.

In the crowd, Jiang Yuan found Boliang, "Senior brother, are you going to go to Beijing City?"

Bo Liang was pleasantly surprised when he saw Jiang Yuan, "Senior brother, you are finally back, we are about to leave, we posted a hero post before, thinking that you will definitely come, if it wasn't for you, we left yesterday, and I thought you didn't receive it." Go and meet Master!"

"Uncle Shi, I'm back!"

Fu Heng was arranging for the various sects to set off, when he heard the words, he turned around and saw Jiang Yuan standing behind him, and said happily: "The heroes from all walks of life in Jiangnan have come and haven't seen you, I thought you wouldn't be able to come!

Fu Heng and a few others took the lead, and thousands of heroes set off in a mighty manner. When he was in a hurry, Hu Sanye also inserted into the team at some point.

"**, you're going too?"

Hu Sanye looked up at Fu Heng and said lightly: "I will fight for the survival of the Han people, not for the Ming Dynasty." ”

The first half of this sentence is easy to understand, if Beijing is lost, it will be another Jingkang humiliation, and the Han people will once again face the danger of survival, and this battle can also be regarded as a battle for the survival of the Han people. But the second half of the sentence has a deep meaning, it seems that there is any dissatisfaction with the Ming court, looking at Fu Heng's surprised tone, I am afraid it is not just dissatisfaction. Jiang Yuan, as a junior, is not easy to inquire too much.

This road is high and long, and everyone has no good horses for thousands of miles, although they are anxious, they can only travel fifty or sixty miles a day. Fortunately, everyone is from a martial arts background, and they always walk faster than ordinary people, and their endurance is better.

The words are divided into two ends, since Jiang Yuan's departure, Yu Qian and the others have not been idle, and the troops from all over the country have also arrived in Beijing one after another, Yu Qian immediately arranged for them to consolidate the city defense, relocate the people near the capital, clear the wilderness, and prepare for a protracted war.

Daizong officially appointed Yu Qian to lead the military department with the title of Shangshu, with full authority to command the defense of Beijing. The situation was urgent, and Yu Qian immediately summoned the generals to discuss the matter.

As soon as the drum stops, the crowd will arrive. Yu Qian's face sank like water, and he ordered someone to unfold the Beijing city defense map: "Discuss it with the generals, how should this battle be fought?"

These generals are obviously more proficient in fighting, and as soon as Yu Qian's words came out, the generals immediately began to discuss.

Shi Heng was originally on the northern border, and had been fighting with Warat for more than ten years, so he could be said to know himself and the enemy, and he had the most right to speak, and he made his debut in the crowd: "Qi Yu is a lord, and the end will be one of them, the victorious division of the Warat army is arrogant and arrogant, and our army should first avoid its edge; second, the Warat army has come from afar, and the grain and grass will be held soon, and our army can just wait for work; third, the city of Beijing is tall, the walls are strong, and the soldiers in the city have enough food and food, so they can hold on. Therefore, our army should hold on to Beijing and wait for the enemy's strength to fall before engaging the enemy. I will be able to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop!"

In fact, there is another point that Shi Heng is afraid of breaking the hearts of the generals and did not say it: Don't look at the fact that there are now more than 200,000 soldiers in Beijing, but most of them are new soldiers, what is the difference between letting this group of people go out to fight and sending them to death?

The generals seconded the proposal, but Yu Qian was not very satisfied: "The Wara army has just defeated the main force of 500,000 of our Ming Dynasty in Tumubao, and the troops are in full swing. It is difficult to guarantee that Beijing will not be blown down by it. Stick to it, it's never advisable!"

What he said makes sense, but since he can't stick to it, it's hard to do it...... The generals are at a loss.

"What do you think?"

Yu Qian's color changed, and he took the case: "The brave wins when they meet on the narrow road, in the current form, only by going out of the city for a decisive battle can we defeat the enemy army and hold Beijing!"

This...... The generals were stunned, a scholar-born Shangshu actually shouted out of the city for a decisive battle, do the generals who have been in battle for a long time want to be turtles with shrunken heads?

"But by the send-of-sights!"

Yu Qian nodded, his fighting spirit was high, and the military spirit was available.

In one breath, the eight main generals guarded the eight gates of the capital respectively, and only one Desheng Gate remained. The generals looked up at Yu Qian, as we all know, Deshengmen is directly north of Beijing City, and is facing the direction of the Wara army, and the first to bear the brunt of the attack of the Wara army! Whether or not they can hold Beijing, this candidate must be the most important!

Yu Qian looked left and right, and said loudly: "The guard of Desheng Gate, Yu Qian, the secretary of the military department!"

What the?

The general's brain is buzzing, did you hear it wrong?

However, before the crowd could come to their senses, Yu Qian threw out another thunderbolt: "As soon as the battle starts, it should be fought to the death." Before the battle, the generals who retreat first regardless of the army will be beheaded; those who retreat first regardless of the generals will be killed by the rear team! After dusk, I will send people to inspect the capital, and if I find that any sergeant is afraid to go out of the city, I will immediately kill him!"

What's wrong with this today? Is this still the literati in the impression of the generals? First there was an idea of going out of the city to fight to the death, and then there was such a strict prohibition, Yu Qian completely subverted the image of the Chinese people in the hearts of the generals.

The soldiers ordered the grass to follow the wind, and Yu Qian gave an order, and groups of soldiers went out of the city and camped to defend the city. Yu Qian also packed some underwear and took Li Gao to the army to sit in the town, Li Qing was not at ease, and followed Yu Qian out of the city with Xiaohai and served as guards. The green snake is a female dependent, and there are many inconveniences in the camp, so she has to stay in the city and wait for news.

After dusk, the city of Beijing, which was originally singing every night, also became silent, this battle was too dangerous, once defeated, the consequences were unimaginable!

The Warat army will probably launch a tentative attack in the next few days, Yu Qian stared at the map in the camp and discussed with several generals until the night after, and made a bold decision: instead of passively responding to the battle, it is better to strike first!
