Chapter VII: The Little Court
Shanhaiguan Xiluo City Gongchen Gate. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Holy Arrival!"
Vice General Chen, who was in the forefront, led dozens of leaders holding various flags to gallop in, and under the stunned gaze of the defenders on both sides of the city gate, Yang Feng, who was dressed in a dragon robe under the yellow crank, sat in an open-top carriage......
The elephant chariot was too late, so he could only find a random carriage to modify.
And on either side of him are the brocade guards who escort him.
"The holy car is coming, kneel to receive the holy car!"
Song Quan, who was wearing the governor's uniform, and Tang Yu, who was wearing the commander's uniform, shouted loudly at the same time, protecting the carriage in the middle.
At this time, the defenders reacted, accustomed to immediately kneeling on both sides, Yang Feng and his party did not pause at all, galloped on the streets of the city, and soon passed through Xiluo City to reach the gate of Ying'en in Guancheng, and in the Gongchen Gate, the leading deputy general Chen called to open the city gate, Yang Feng's car drove directly into the city, along the street where chickens and dogs jumped straight to the general army Yamen, they arrived at the general army Yamen when Gao Di just got the news, the Shanhaiguan general soldier and a middle-aged civil official ran out in a panic, and then knelt down in front of the carriage.
"Minister Liaodong Governor Li Yutian knocks to see Your Majesty."
"The chief soldier of the minister's gate knocks to see Your Majesty!"
In the midst of their bowing, Yang Feng wore a dragon robe full of holes and holes, and got off the carriage with a majestic face.
"The two Aiqing are flat!"
He said lightly.
"Your Majesty, what are you?"
Li Yutian looked at him in horror and asked.
"Your Majesty fought bloodily with the thieves, killed hundreds of enemies before killing out of the capital, and fought with the thieves in Jizhou, which were all injured by the thieves' weapons, but Your Majesty's true dragon son has the blessing of the gods, although the thief damaged the dragon robe, but could not hurt the royal body."
Wang Chengen said triumphantly.
"Long live my emperor, long live!"
Li Yutian and Gao Di hurriedly lay down there and shouted long live, of course, they definitely don't believe this kind of nonsense, but Yang Feng's body is indeed very impactful, especially Gao Di, it can be seen at a glance that most of these are arrow wounds, and the one under the ribs is even more spear stabbed, but it doesn't look like the emperor is injured like this.
Yang Feng didn't say much, and entered the general army yamen surrounded by them, and then sat down directly in the middle of the main hall, and everyone, including Song Quan, revisited the worship.
"There is a decree in the saint, now when the country is in danger, we must not stick to the old system, and now we have set up a special cabinet, with Wang Yongji, the governor of Jiliao, as the first assistant of the cabinet, Song Quan, the governor of Shuntian, as the second assistant and the secretary of the ministry, Li Yutian, the governor of Liaodong, as the second assistant and the secretary of the household department, and Gao Di, the general soldier of the closed gate, as the secretary of the military department, Wu Sangui, the general of Liaodong, as the governor of the five armies, and the deputy general of Shanhaiguan Gao Gao was selected as the general soldier of the closed gate, and Tang Yu was the chief soldier of Liaodong.
Wang Chengen stood beside Yang Feng and shouted.
This is something that was studied with Song Quan on the road, and now there are few officials who are of course there is no need for that complex bureaucracy, Wang Yongji is the governor, Song Quan and Li Yutian are the governors, just a cabinet first assistant and two secondary assistants and then each have a book, the Gaodi Reform Department Shangshu, and his family's former Shanhaiguan deputy general high school election to become the chief soldier, I believe they can also accept it, Wu Sangui directly became the governor of the five armies, and at this time there is no need for five governors, just restore the governor of the early Ming Dynasty, And Tang Yu, who was originally idle, took over his Liaodong general army.
The Liaodong General Army was stationed in Ningyuan, and Wu Sangui definitely didn't want to go to Ningyuan at this time, so he wouldn't have an opinion on this appointment.
If you want to defend Shanhaiguan, you must guard Ningyuan, and then they not only need to face Li Zicheng's army, but also need to face Dolgon's army, Yang Feng of course didn't expect his Qinwang army to arrive, in fact, he didn't think he would have reinforcements at all, just the four towns in Jiangbei can open Li Zicheng's defense line It is completely nonsense, what he is preparing is to use the tens of thousands of troops in Liaodong and Shanhaiguan, and there are hundreds of thousands of people who have moved inward to play alone here.
In this way, he must have enough land to support these people, and this plain corridor between Ningyuan and Shanhaiguan is the best choice.
He had to stick to both of these points.
Yang Feng was not worried about the surrender of Li Zicheng by these guys, because soon the news of Li Zicheng's fight against local tyrants in Beijing would come, but he had to solve the problem of them borrowing troops and even surrendering them.
That's his biggest problem.
Yang Feng sat on the chair and looked at the Wenchen generals in front of him with a deep face, thinking about how he should pit them.
"Your Majesty, Wang Yongji, the governor of Jiliao, is waiting to see you."
Liang Cheng suddenly came in to report.
"Xuan."
Yang Feng said.
Wang Yongji was dusty, as soon as he entered the door, he immediately lay there crying and pleading guilty, he was only after getting the report of Yang Yuji, the military preparation of Jizhou, that Yang Feng ran to the Shanhaiguan, he was a little closer from Yutian to here, although he was a little late, but he still arrived in time.
"Aiqing is flat, the wind knows the strength of the grass, the country is difficult to show loyalty, you can come to me to be very comforted, speaking of which, if there is no traitor, I don't know that there are so many white-eyed wolves around me, but it also lets me know who is the real loyal minister, you are a loyal minister, you are all my loyal ministers, you are all loyal ministers of our Ming Dynasty, in the future, I will rely on you Aiqing, I am here to swear to the sky, wait for the day I return to the palace, wealth and you will be together!"
Yang Feng stood up and said excitedly.
Even Wang Yongji, a group of ministers hurriedly thanked him again, and then announced Lao Wang's new official, and Lao Wang was busy thanking him, of course, at this time, the first assistant is not the first assistant, it is like that, not to mention that he is an earl, even if he is crowned king, it is useless.
"Where's Pingxihou?"
Yang Feng asked.
"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Pingxi is leading the army back, but the tens of thousands of troops are different from the ministers who came lightly, and it is estimated that they will arrive tomorrow."
Wang Yongji said.
Yang Feng nodded.
"Song Qing proposed to borrow troops to suppress Kou before, what does Wang Qing think?"
Then he asked.
"Your Majesty's Holy Judgment."
Lao Wang said.
"Your Majesty, what if Jiannu takes the opportunity to enter the Kou?"
Li Yutian said.
"It can be limited to go through Zunhua to get out of the customs."
Song Quan said.
"Brother Yuanping, do you think Dolgon will be so obedient? What if he led his army to Yue Ningyuan and directly came to the city? If we don't open the door, he will sit back and watch the counterattack attack the city, I'm afraid that when we are exhausted, we will have to beg him to enter the customs, if we open the door and let him enter the customs, then can we ensure that he does not take the mountain customs first? What else can we do then? The princes underestimate that Dolgon, right? ”
Li Yutian said.
"What does Yiqing mean?"
Yang Feng asked with interest.
He didn't expect that there would be an outlier in this, in fact, Song Quan and the others certainly knew that this situation would occur, and they also knew how to deal with this situation, it was nothing more than making do with it, anyway, even if Dolgon did this, they would have a big deal to take advantage of the situation, and when the time came, they would strive for a better treatment for themselves, the emperor, and they would be able to get by on their conscience, and then in a few days, even if Dolgon barbecued the emperor, they would just shed a few tears, and Li Yutian would not not understand, but he still objected, which meant that he did not want to surrender.
"Soldiers can be borrowed, but we must be prepared to defend Ningyuan."
Li Yutian said.
"That's all the soldiers and horses at Shanhaiguan, they don't dare to protect themselves when they come to defend Ningyuan, where are the soldiers and horses coming from to defend Ningyuan, not to mention that Ning Yuan must have entered the hands of the Qing army at this time, if you want to defend it again, you must take it back first, since it is to borrow troops from it and challenge the end first, how can you borrow troops again?"
Wang Yongji said.
"As far as the minister knows, although the Qing army has taken control of Ningyuan, the number of defenders is very small, and he would not have thought that our army would turn back, and it is estimated that the problem of recapturing Ningyuan will not be too big, and there is no need to care about the problem of provoking the war first."
Li Yutian said.
"That Dolgon can also be regarded as a hero, he is also interested in the world, but if Li Zicheng wins the world, he will no longer have the possibility of entering the customs, once Li Zicheng stabilizes the pass, and even he has to face the threat of the latter, at this time our existence is beneficial to him, and it is beneficial for him that we continue to fight with Li Zicheng, so helping us is his best choice. But to help us is not for His Majesty to return to the palace, but to play Bian Zhuang Thorn Tiger, and after we consume Li Zicheng's strength, he will enter the customs to seize the world, and the premise of his large-scale entry into the customs to seize the world is to control Shanhaiguan first, and only this road can be opened. If we put him outside the pass, then it will be equivalent to giving him Shanhaiguan, so we must recapture Ningyuan and let him know that this road is our bottom line, and then he will really follow our path. ”
Then he added.
"But even so, it turned out to be a two-front battle."
Gaudi said.
"Yes, we have no choice, if we want them to listen to us, then there are only two fronts."
Li Yutian said.
Everyone was silent.
"Alas, the matter has come to this, I can only endure the humiliation for a while, Li Qing, is there any way for you to contact that Dorgon? I will talk to him personally, but you first select 10,000 elites, hand over the defense of this Shanhaiguan to Pingxi Hou, and I will personally lead the army to recapture Ningyuan, and then you will contact Dolgon, and say that I will meet him under Ningyuan City, and I will see if I can understand it! ”
Yang Feng said gloomily.
"Your Majesty, how can Your Majesty be humiliated by that Jiannu, and the ministers deserve death!"
Lao Wang lay there and shouted.
"It's all like this now, what's the use of saying this? For the sake of the people, for the sake of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in this Shanhaiguan, I will suffer some humiliation! Now I just want that Dolgon to have some humanity. ”
Yang Feng said sadly.
As he spoke, his eyes were red, and he couldn't help but lower his head and wipe his tears.
"Your Majesty, you must not!"
Lao Wang shouted again.
Then the other ministers also all lay there and shouted, as for whether they were really moved by the greatness of His Majesty the Emperor, this is unknown, but this time the emperor is indeed great, after all, an emperor personally accompanied the smiling face to ask the enemy for help, which can be said to be a great shame, not to mention that this emperor is still known for his stubborn temperament, at this moment it is estimated that they all saw the light of the Holy Lord Mingjun shining behind him.
However, they didn't know that when His Majesty the Emperor lowered his head and wiped his tears, a wicked smile appeared on his face.
