With the excited crowd in Beijing, Wang Jiyong is much calmer, although today's battle survived, but the strength of the Mongolian cavalry is indeed not to be underestimated, the Mongolian cavalry quickly reacted with the desperate impact of his own people and confronted himself-for-tat, with the upper hand of the crowd, this is definitely a military force worthy of attention.

On the other hand, the Shanhe army was divided into two parts, the infantry was lightly armed, and the baggage army marched slowly behind, rushing overnight, and only rested for two hours at night, with brocade guards patrolling the periphery, it was impossible for the brigade to appear around them, and the bandits in the squad would not take the army as a target at all, and the army could not grab much money, and it was easy to annihilate the whole army.

The Shanhe army didn't even set up a camp, so they just found a place to start sleeping, fortunately it was not autumn and winter, and it was not cold to sleep anywhere, but the sky was very overcast, and seeing that it could rain at any time, Qin Yue was very worried, but he just rested for two hours and marched immediately, but he couldn't let the army be blocked by the heavy rain.

At this time, the Shanhe Army is only eighty miles away from Beijing, if there is no accident, it can rush to the city of Beijing before dark, Wang Jiyong has already rushed to the city of Beijing, and there is no news of the city being broken, if nothing else, the city of Beijing should be defended.

Cheng Xiaolian walked unhurriedly with the baggage team in the back, but there was a feeling of leisurely strolling, the baggage team rushed to the battlefield too early is not beneficial, those soldiers are carrying three days of dry food, according to the normal plan, will not let the soldiers of the Shanhe Army cut off the grain and grass, the baggage team prematurely joined the battlefield is not a good thing, but gives the Mongols a chance, once the Mongols burn the grain and grass, the army is unstable, but can not keep the city of Beijing.

Yang Youcai was in such a relaxed mood on the battlefield, and while he was on the way, he also led people up the mountain to catch a rabbit: "Your Majesty, you see that we should have been like this before, just wait for them to win the battle while walking, we don't have to get bloody, and roast rabbits to eat, life is so comfortable, what more can you ask for." ”

Cheng Xiaolian pouted: "Now we are a big family and have the capital to eat rabbits, two years in advance, if I eat rabbits in the back, who is willing to fight desperately in front of the soldiers, no one can see the hope of the Ming Dynasty at the beginning, and I can only take the lead." ”

"Your Majesty, have you thought about it, even if we block the Mongolian cavalry, the army will lose a lot, if the bureau army of the Zhou Dynasty suddenly attacks, and the Northern Sweeping Army is still fighting hard in Shanxi, how should we deal with it?"

"The soldiers are coming to block, the water is coming to cover the earth, now the main target is still aimed at the Mongols, if you just want to keep the back hand to deal with Hu Guozhu, I'm afraid that even the Mongols can't stop it, but those people in Shanxi are still so stubborn after the Manchu Qing Dynasty withdrew to Liaodong I really didn't expect it, I said they are stupid and loyal or are they stubborn?"

"Anyway, these people who have not surrendered are more than those who surrender when they see us, and those who surrender when they see us always make me feel empty, and it will not be too difficult for them to join us today and others tomorrow."

"There's no way, these people are all local snakes, controlling local forces, we are taking a big step now, stability is the first, we can only use these people to stabilize the place first, as for how things will develop in the future, see if they are smart enough."

A day and a half later, the news came back, Wang Jiyong fought hard for a day and lost half of the cavalry, when it was getting late, Qin Yue appeared on the battlefield with a large army, Galdan saw that the general trend had gone and ordered to retreat, Wang Jiyong's cavalry suffered serious losses and lost the ability to pursue, and could only watch Galdan retreat in defeat. The city of Beijing changed hands, and thirty-six years later, the Ming regained control of Beijing.

Two days later, Cheng Xiaolian rushed to Beijing City with a heavy army, at this time came the news that Galdan began to loot in the retreat, and before Cheng Xiaolian could come up with a solution, another bad news came, Hu Guozhu led the army into the range of Shuntianfu, and their goal was very clear, that is, to take advantage of the opportunity of the Ming Dynasty to seize the city of Beijing.

Cheng Xiaolian looked at Chen Cheng'an beside him and smiled bitterly: "We didn't rob a baby, this is a hot potato, you see we just entered Beijing City, trouble is coming one after another, if you don't stop Galdan, Beijing to Datong will be looted by them on the way, if you stop them, our strength to defend the city will be weakened by a point, how can Hu Guozhu resist when he comes?" ”

"The minister thinks that General Wang Jiyong can continue to pursue, the morale of the newly defeated Galdan army must not be high, and he came from afar, and the people do not have the same heart as them, so it is convenient for us to advance or retreat. Besides, if we fight with Hu Guozhu, we must rely on the danger of the city of Beijing, and at that time, General Wang Jiyong's cavalry will not be of much use, so it is better to let him pursue Galdan behind. ”

Cheng Xiaolian nodded when he heard this: "It makes sense." Saying that, he turned his head to look at Yang Youcai: "Send news to Daniel Zhang, let him solve the war in Shanxi as soon as possible no matter how much it costs, our troops are still a little weak." ”

Yang Youcai nodded: "I'll go and deliver the message." ”

At this time, Qin Yue came to the front: "The minister has already sent someone to clean up the remnants of the palace, and His Majesty will be able to return to the palace in a few days." ”

The Manchus have just withdrawn from Beijing, who knows who they left in the palace, if there are one or two people with different intentions, it is a great threat to Cheng Xiaolian's life, but the Forbidden City is where the emperor lives, and Cheng Xiaolian must live back, which is of great significance to the Ming Dynasty, so he sent someone to conduct a strict investigation of the people in the palace.

Cheng Xiaolian shook his head: "Don't think about living in the Forbidden City first, the people in there are not at ease, and they won't be able to screen for a while, it's better to hang it first, don't care about the people in the palace first, just maintain order in the palace, and don't let them make waves in the city." ”

"I understand."

Cheng Xiaolian glanced at Yang Youcai again: "You also send a few people to keep an eye on the movements in the palace, so that you can take the opportunity to see who has problems." ”

The people in the palace are indeed a big trouble, those palace maids will be dismissed when they are dismissed to the people, and even if those eunuchs are dismissed, they still need to recruit another batch, and it will inevitably be another tragedy at that time.

Of course, Cheng Xiaolian does not intend to give away his own or even his family's lives because of a moment of kindness, his ideological realm is not high enough to sacrifice himself to fulfill the height of others, and he does not intend to defy the law, some privileges should still be used, and some privileges can save more people's lives, in Cheng Xiaolian's opinion, this is a very suitable deal.
