Looking at the brightly lit Jingshi in front of him, and looking at the bright lights of thousands of living beings in the north, Zhu Cihong silently added a few words in his heart: "I came to this world, and I was lucky to have a body that should be the most suitable for the destiny of heaven. How can they succumb to the slightest trickery of a traitor? I...... Wait! ”

"Good!" Fu Rugui shouted: "Your Highness, the Tartars have entered the Kou, just recently!" I, Fu Rugui, would like to participate in the grand event with His Royal Highness. It is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, at any cost! ”

Zhu Cihong raised his head, exhaled heavily, looked at the sky, and said loudly: "Come on, come on!" ”

"Yuan Xi, you are ready tomorrow. I want to see if there is really no one in this capital city who is willing to follow me...... Be a real man who protects his family and defends the country! ”

……

Outside the north of Yanshan, the autumn is high and the horse is fat, and it is the most joyful time of the year when the grassland children are the most joyful.

Some time ago, an edict from the Qing Emperor spread all over the grassland, and countless grassland children rode horses, carried horned bows, and ran around screaming.

Gradually, the Mongol cavalry from all walks of life slowly gathered and gathered outside the Great Wall at Jielingkou.

Here, Abatai is leading the main force of the left flank, gathering troops and horses from all walks of life.

This time, Abatai not only mobilized most of the Niu Lu in his hands, gathered the Jurchen elite soldiers of Turge, Su Bai and other generals under him, but also brought Chen Weidao and other Han Army Eight Banners. and a powerful boost for the Jurchens to swallow the Ming Dynasty: the Mongolian Eight Banners.

The Mongolian Eight Banners established seven years ago had 17,000 soldiers and horses, and 24 solid mountains. Abatai wants to go south to conquer the Ming Dynasty, how could he forget this right-hand man?

In one go, he transferred half of the troops of the Mongolian Eight Banners.

As a result, the Abatai soldiers, with a total of nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses, were divided into two routes. All the way, let Turg take the right flank to detour through Yanmen Pass from Shanxi and bypass Yanshan. Enter the hinterland of Gyeonggi in Damyeong.

This is obviously Abatai's fear that the dense border towns on the Shanxi side still have the strength to resist.

As for the main force, it was led by Abatai himself. Eyeing the Great Wall of Jielingkou.

His target was the core military town of the Ming army in the Gyeonggi region: Jizhen.

October 11, 15th year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty.

The Qing army Manchu, Mongolian, Third and Outer Mongolian armies were assembled. Abatai led the army and slowly set off towards the Great Wall at the mouth of the Boundary Ridge.

The first to set out ahead of the army was an elite line of infantry, who hid their horses and began to climb the walls with light steps.

It was already night, the sky was dark, and the weather that was still very hot during the day turned cold in an instant. The cold wind blew through the neck, and it was bitterly cold.

The two unlucky and tragic Ming soldiers who were sent to guard were slow and weak.

Suddenly, one person's expression was depressed. He whispered something to the other man, and unbuckled his belt towards the southern wall.

Seeing this, the other Ming soldiers sneered and said, "Lazy people have a lot of and urine." ”

Immediately, he ignored this comrade and strode to continue patrolling.

The soldier laughed, and just wanted to put away his belt, but he had a hunch to look back.

The sturdy and bulging Hedu looked at the thin and stunned face in front of him, and rushed forward quickly, putting the soldier on the city wall. grabbed his neck, and took out the Western Regions scimitar in his hand expressionlessly and twisted it.

Then, the red blood flowed out, and the body of the Ming soldier in Hedu's hand became softer and softer. More and more powerless. Zhao Xiong, who climbed the city wall, saw this, closed his eyes and clenched the long knife in his hand. He wanted to kill the soldier with his back to him, but he felt like a boulder under his feet.

"Master. Don't delay! He Du snorted.

Zhao Xiong gasped and was about to rush over with his eyes closed. But I heard a scream in my ears. On the back of the soldier's head, an arrow feather trembled slightly.

Not long after, Zhao Xiong watched one by one the money rat tails leap onto the Great Wall.

"Jielingkou...... It's broken......" Zhao Xiong said in a low voice.

Tens of thousands of Qing troops flooded into the Ming Dynasty.

……

Smack......

"No...... Impossible! Zhou Yanru slapped the table suddenly: "Zhao Qingsi, the head of the Ministry of Rites, has already sent an envoy to the Qing Kingdom, how can it be...... At this time, the Qing army sent troops to attack? ”

"But that's the case, it's useless to question!" Chen Xinjia walked in with heavy footsteps, looked at Zhou Yanru and said, "Lord Shoufu, for now, let's think about how to reply when the Holy Lord asks for a while." ”

"Is there a way for the military department?" When Zhou Yanru saw Chen Xinjia, he no longer had the disdain for looking at the other, but as if he had seen a life-saving straw.

But if Chen Xinjia has a way, where will he come to Zhou Yanru?

Chen Xinjia smiled bitterly and shook his head: "This time, let's ask His Highness to lead the troops." At present, the commanders who can fight in the country are either dead or thousands of miles away. Gyeonggi entered the Kou, and there was a change in captivity, and there was a ...... in eagerness"

"No!" Zhou Yanru was like being stepped on by the tail: "This is a matter of principle!" When did I need a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child to protect the world? The prince is a handsome minister, it is absolutely impossible! ”

Chen Xinjia was kind-hearted and made an idea, but he was so angry by Zhou Yanru: "Good, good, good!" Then please face the saint yourself! ”

Zhou Yanru stared coldly at Chen Xinjia's back, and his heart was bitter: "Barbarians, afraid of power but not virtuous." Unexpectedly, while negotiating peace, he attacked on the other hand. How is that good...... How is it a good ......"

In the Forbidden City at the moment.

Wu Changshi dragged Dong Tingxian, who was dressed in a Confucian shirt and did not even have an official uniform, and strode towards the cabinet. While running, Wu Changshi panted and pulled Dong Tingxian and said, "Mr. Dong! I know that there is some anger between you and me. But at this time, we are all grasshoppers in the same boat. But no matter what, you can't fool adults and me! ”

Dong Tingxian hurriedly took this opportunity to tear Wu Changshi's hand away and said, "Okay...... Good. Your Excellency, you don't have to drag me, in this situation, I naturally know when and how I would still do such a brotherly thing. Don't worry, there's no problem with Ning Yuan. People's father Wu Lianghuan is in Beijing, how could he be wrong? Feel relieved! This time, Shousuke-sama is fine! ”

"Lend you good words...... Lend you auspicious words! Wu Chang said incoherently, and finally ran to the cabinet.

As soon as he saw Zhou Yanru, Wu Changshi eagerly waved away the idle people and asked Dong Tingxian to tell the key information.

Zhou Yanru bet on the wrong treasure, and it was bitter and unspeakable.

For Chongzhen, this was also a failure.

He actually lost to his own son.

So, how will the next imperial court respond?

Shanhaiguan can't stop the Manchu army, so who can resist?

Empty peace ...... Can Daming really be saved?

Or is it ...... Do you really want to admit your previous mistakes and use the prince to lead the troops again? (To be continued.) )
