Chapter 879: Cut Down the Crooked Neck Tree! (Ask for subscription)

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, good news! Good news......"

The person who is called "the emperor" is Jin Fulin, he is not the public emperor now, but in Beijing, the people under his command still call him the emperor. Blessing did not stop them from crying out...... He's very pleasing to the ear, and he can listen to it every day!

As for Zhu Cihong's crusade, he doesn't care...... Because after the news from all sides is summarized, it points out such a reality, the war between him and Daming is not over!

Because he can't get out of Beijing City, Tumochuan can't go. The water and soil of Tumochuan are far worse than those around Beijing, and even the grassland on the dam north of Yanshan Mountain cannot be compared.

Moreover, because of the destruction of the Qing army in the early years, Guihua City has been dilapidated, and it cannot be defended at all. There are also no natural dangers around Tumo River that can be relied on, and it is easy to be harassed by the acting king Zhu Cijiong and the surrounding Mongolian tribes.

Especially the acting king Zhu Cijiong, he has many Datong soldiers who hate the Qing Dynasty to the bone, once Fulin moves west to Tumochuan, he will almost certainly be attacked by Zhu Cijiong's troops, and then naturalization will become the second Datong......

So after careful consideration, Fu Lin and his ministers both decided that it would be more advantageous not to hand over Beijing.

And Fulin in Beijing is not without a little hole card, he still has a strong city to rely on, there are soldiers to use, and he can also eat the military rations accumulated over the years - thinking of these foods, Fulin can't help but shed tears, which are all the legacy left by Dolgon. It was saved by Dolgon during the five-year armistice, and there were nearly three million stone of flour, millet, and soybeans! This food is enough to feed the soldiers and families who defend the city for a few years!

Sure enough, there is only Ama in the world - Zhu Cihong, this Ama is not counted!

Fu Lin didn't believe it, Emperor Zhu really had the ability to put an army of tens of thousands to 100,000 people under the city of Beijing for several years!

Although the Wei River waterway was opened by the Ming army, and Tianjin Wei also became a place for the Ming army to hoard grain, the canal from Tianjin to Beijing can be silted up and damaged in many places, and it is difficult to use it without repair. Therefore, the cost of grain transshipment for the Ming army is still not low...... If there are as many as 100,000 people to eat, plus livestock, plus the people who are transported, it will be a huge consumption.

In addition to Beijing Jiancheng, in the autumn of the seventh year of Hongxing, Fulin had another trump card in hand, that is, the traitors in the world returned to their hearts.

Emperor Zhu's punishment of Fan Wencheng, Sun Sike, Li Shutai, Xu Dingguo, Geng Jimao and other big traitors was too harsh, to the point of cruelty, although it shocked the hearts of the people in Zhongzhou, but at the same time, it also had a side effect, that is, it made the big traitors who had not yet fallen into the hands of the Ming army desperate and fearful.

In fact, Emperor Zhu did this, not entirely because he hated traitors, if he really hated traitors so much, how could Zu Dashou be okay? Zhu Cihong used torture to punish the big traitor, but also to kill chickens and monkeys and deter people's hearts!

From the early years of Chongzhen in Zhongzhou to the present, there have been wars for many years, soldiers and bandits are rampant, and the people have to form a village to protect themselves, and the local heroes have come into being.

And most of these powerful backbones have participated in various struggles against the rule of the Ming Dynasty - if you really want to firmly support the strong and powerful of the Ming Dynasty, you would have gone to the Southern Dynasty to be a hero.

Therefore, Zhu Cihong wanted to quickly establish local power in Zhongzhou, inspect the land, and use part of the land to reward heroes and soldiers, which was likely to annoy these little heroes. If you can't behave a little more brutally now, if you really want to mess up, the trouble will be even greater.

And the contradictions surrounding the land of Zhongzhou, at the same time, prompted a group of small traitors to unite around Fulin, the "emperor in the second ring".

Thus the good news that has been preached to the ears of Fulin these days has abounded......

Fu Lin, who was looking at a crooked-necked old locust tree that had appeared in his nightmare on the coal mountain fortress, looked back and saw that it was "Little Scholar" Sony.

Fu Lin is not the emperor anymore, and of course the people under his command have to be demoted. Sony's freshman bachelor was changed to a "junior bachelor", commonly known as a junior bachelor - it sounds a bit like a degree issued at the end of elementary school.

"Sony," Fu Lin put away his thoughts and smiled a little, "Who has come to Beijing to join us?" ”

"Shang Kexi is here!" Sonny said, "He drove over from Shanxi with 15,000 elite soldiers and more than 50,000 dependents, and also brought hundreds of thousands of catties of Jiezhou salt, tens of thousands of Shishan West millet, and tens of thousands of large livestock. ”

Shang Kexi was sealed in Pingyang Mansion because he stood correctly in the battle of Jieshi Mountain, so he was not within the scope of the first wave of attacks of the Ming army. However, seeing the fate of Geng Jimao and Fan Wencheng, he did not dare to continue to stay in Pingyang, but fled with his troops to Beijing City to join Fulin.

"Good!" Fu Lin smiled, "With another 15,000 elite soldiers, there are a few more points of certainty in defending Beijing City." ”

"And whatever!" Sony then added, "Geng Zhongming and Kong Tingxun also came from Datong with some old subordinates...... The combined strength of the two also has more than 1,000 people, although they are all old veterans, but they have all been on the killing array, and they have a deep blood feud with the Ming Dynasty. ”

Geng Zhongming and Kong Tingxun were on the wrong side in the Battle of Jieshi Mountain, so they lost their position as vassal kings. However, instead of killing them, Dodor left them in the care of Zilharan. Geng Jimao and Fan Wencheng, who took the throne, sent some elderly veterans to Datong Mansion to protect them.

"If you are a loyal minister!" Fu Lin nodded, "Although my name of the Great Qing Dynasty does not exist, as long as there are such loyal ministers, it will be revived!" Is there news on the steppe? When will Zilharang and Chang Adai arrive? ”

Compared with Shang Kexi, Geng Zhongming, and Kong Tingxun, the three big traitors, Fulin hopes to get the support of Old Manchuria and Steppe Mongolia.

Because he needed the cavalry of Old Manchuria and Steppe Mongolia to attack the rear of the Ming army, and he could not trap the lonely city of Beijing, otherwise Dolgon would have run out of food no matter how much food he left.

Someone had to hold the strongholds in the Yanshan Mountains near Beijing, such as Huailaiwei, Yanqingzhou, Juyongguan, Bohaisuo, Chaohesuo, and Baiyangkou, in order to disperse the strength of the Ming army.

At the same time, it is also convenient for Fulin to break through and escape when the city of Beijing is breached.

"On the prairie...... There is no news for the time being. Sony's face, which was still full of joy just now, had become a little stiff, "As for Zilharang and Chang Adai, they sent someone to send a ......."

As he spoke, the two envelopes were already in Sony's hands.

When Fulin saw the envelope, his face sank.

This is not a notebook!

"I don't look at it!" Fulin said, "Say it! ”

"Chang Adai said that he will lead the elite soldiers of Taiyuan Mansion to enter Xuanfu and provide strong reinforcements for Beijing." Sonny said, "Zilharang said that Datong Mansion is guarded by him, and it should be impregnable...... In addition, he also sent people to Tumochuan to repair the city, appease the people, and prepare for His Majesty's relocation......"

"Bastard!" Fu Lin's face turned pale, "Ji'er Harang, this old fox, wants to take refuge in Tumochuan, right?" ”

In fact, Zilharang and Chang Adai no longer have any strength, they both sent elite troops to support Duoduo, and fought the battle of Victory, all of which suffered heavy losses.

Sonny whispered: "Your Majesty, the minions heard some rumors......"

"Say!"

"If Your Majesty does not go to naturalization, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty will confer the title of Duke of Angelica County, and Tumochuan Xuanfu will ......"

"Zilharang deserves death!" Fu Lin's voice trembled, his eyes were on fire, he looked up and looked west, and he didn't know if he wanted to look at Jilharang's face thousands of miles away, but Jilharang didn't see it, but he saw an old locust tree with a crooked neck.

"Someone!" Fulin shouted.

Sony was frightened at the time, and pounced on Fu Lin's knees, "No! Your Majesty, now is not the time to crusade against Zilharang......"

Fu Lin glared at Sony, "Who is going to crusade against Zilharang?" He raised his hand and pointed to the crooked-necked old locust tree, "Quickly find someone to cut down all the crooked-necked trees on the coal mountain!" ”
