"The old and young masters of Beijing City are very good, my lord said, now the Mongolian cavalry is going to attack our Beijing City, once they are let into the city, we are all ghosts under the sword, you know what the Mongolian cavalry calls us, right? If you are called a two-legged sheep, you can eat it, and if you are afraid, run away. Of course, I also think that we are all flesh-and-blood men, so let's defend the city with us. ”

"This defense of the city will not let you shed blood in vain, my lord also said, but anyone who rents my land, as long as they defend the city, each family will be exempted from rent for three years, and the land will be given to you for three years, and the amount of grain collected will be your own."

"Of course, there will definitely be people who die defending the city, my lord swears by his own honor, but if someone in the family dies in battle, a person will receive fifty taels of silver, and now each person will receive five taels of silver to rest assured, fifty taels of silver is enough for your family to worry about it, and you are willing to participate in the defense of Beijing with us, register here." If you don't want to, I also advise you, run quickly, when the Mongols come, they will definitely burn, kill, rob, and do all kinds of evil! ”

These shouts are all over the streets and alleys of Beijing, and the surrounding villages are also unstoppable. These people who were sent out to shout greatly exaggerated the ferocity of the Mongols, and increased the reward for defending the city, and in a short time they had already won over many people.

Lord Song stood on top of the city and looked around: "General Liao, we have almost scattered all the family wealth according to your orders, if we can't do it, we can't do anything." ”

"Your Excellency trusts Liao, Liao put his words here, Beijing City is in Liao, if Beijing City is lost, Liao will definitely die before it is lost!" Speaking of this, he laughed again: "Besides, I am also helping your lords, you think about it, these people have taken the benefits of your lords, they must be with your lords, when the time comes, whether it is the Ming Dynasty or the Great Zhou into the city, these people are better than silver." ”

"Hahaha, General Liao is also a smart person, I'm afraid that after this battle, I'm afraid I'm going to rise to the top, don't forget to bring me and wait for the time."

Everyone greeted for a while, those Wenchen went down the city tower, General Liao stood on the top of the city with a dignified expression, he didn't know whether it was right or wrong to do this, if he couldn't hold the city, the Mongols under the anger were afraid to kill more people, but they have never liked to put their fate in the hands of others, and they have a chance to lift the knife and fight, and now the opportunity has greatly increased.

"Da Ming's army, I hope you won't let me down."

Two days later, the Mongolian cavalry rushed to the city of Beijing, they were not stupid, they came to the territory of other people, their eyes were black, if they rushed into it with all their might, it was easy to fall into the ambush of others, and when the time came, they would lose their troops and lose their generals, which was not the result that Galdan wanted, so they slowed down the speed a day ago, and a large number of scouts were sent out, and any place where it was possible to ambush the army was checked by the scouts.

When we arrived at the city of Beijing, it was already a little dark, and Galdan immediately sent someone to shout: "I will come to King Qin, and ask the guards to open the city gate and let us in." ”

Galdan didn't kill or rob all the way, but there is some credibility in letting this word out, if those ministers in the city don't have an idea, maybe they will open the city gate.

But these ministers in the city have long known that Mongolia has rebelled, and they were driven back last year for invading Datong and Xuanfu, and now they are talking about this kind of nonsense, and the most important thing is that the ministers in the city have decided to fight to the death, and they are not interested in this at all. defected to the Ming Dynasty and the Great Zhou may also be famous through the ages, if the city gate is opened to Mongolia, it is estimated that people will have to dig up the grave after death.

"I heard that the Mongolian Galdan Khan arrived, and my emperor specially left a will, but it was too late to read the words on it, so I will read it again tomorrow."

Galdan was not prepared to open the city gate like this, he was a little curious when he heard this, he didn't know what will Kangxi left, and he didn't have the tools to attack the city at night, so he ordered the army to build a ladder overnight, preparing to attack the city tomorrow.

General Liao also thought about entering the city with Kaldan, and when he entered the city, he suddenly attacked the killer, and there was no such example in history, but this idea was just turned around and he gave up, and all of them were evenly matched in this way, and there were not many warriors under him who could fight, just like a mouse with a knife to stab a tiger's buttocks, it is estimated that it can only provoke the tiger, and then the tiger turned its head and ate it in one bite. Moreover, the biggest advantage of Beijing City is the city, and giving up this advantage is really attacking the enemy with its own shortcomings.

In the past two days, General Liao has been instilling ideas in these miscellaneous troops under his command, death is not the most terrible, once the city is lost, everyone's family members can not be saved, if the battle is killed tomorrow, it is nothing, as long as the city guards the Ming Dynasty's army is coming in an instant, then your silver is indispensable.

Although General Liao didn't understand any psychological hints from later generations, he also knew that only by letting these people not be afraid of death would tomorrow's war have a chance, otherwise it would be easy to be defeated at the first time.

Early the next morning, Galdan came to the bottom of the city with a large army: "General above, what will the emperor want to give me, read it quickly, and then open the city gate and let me in, otherwise I will not be polite." ”

"Don't worry, Great Khan of Galdan, we will read the decree to you."

"Since the fall of Mongolia to the Qing Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty has nothing to treat Mongolia, the Han people are not allowed to intermarry with the banner people, Mongolia can intermarry with the banner people, the Mongolian Qing Dynasty is a family, Galdan you in order to satisfy your own selfish desires, to millions of Mongolian people in the war, the lives of the miserable, countless casualties. In the end, the Han people were cheapened for nothing, and at that time, you Mongolia and the Qing Dynasty will be barbarians, and you will be the sinners of Mongolia in a hundred years! ”

This holy decree was naturally not left by Kangxi, Kangxi decided to return to Liaodong, where is there any intention to leave any holy decree for the Mongols, this is the method that Lord Song came up with, General Liao just mentioned that it would be good if he could delay for a while or even disintegrate their military hearts before the Mongols attacked the city, Lord Song immediately came up with such a method, he is not good at fighting, but there are still some means to grasp the hearts of the people, otherwise it would be impossible to mix in this court for so many years.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Galdan's face turned pale, and he roared: "Siege!" ”

Perhaps it was a psychological effect, but he always felt that the soldiers had other ideas, and questioned his approach. Thinking of this, he clenched his fists and scolded himself secretly, knowing that the Han people have a lot of ghost ideas, but he wants to listen to their nonsense, and now he has lost his morale, which is extremely stupid!
