Li Yanzhi used tricks to negotiate with Altan in front of the formation, but also reported the results of the negotiations as "records". Even though tens of thousands of people in the army knew that they had not started fighting, falsely reporting military achievements was a "sham" in the Ming army. Anyway, there will be rewards for the great achievements, and then some will fall on his head. Unless the generals deducted too much, no one will risk being beheaded by the commander and being jealous of the entire army.

As for the Ministry of War, it is impossible to say that no one has received any news from the cabinet. However, Li Yanzhi knew that the rules in the officialdom were to "hide the superiors and not the subordinates". At this time, Jiajing was in a hurry again and only hoped that people would report the merits. Whoever told the truth would be bad! Moreover, when the war merits were reported and the rewards were sent, there was too much fuel in these two processes! From the cabinet to the Ministry of Revenue to the Ministry of War to the Governor's Office of the Five Army to the combat troops, there was a chain of interests with powerful energy at the play! This was a network that was more powerful than the interest chain of the Armamentary Department! Even the chief minister level and even the emperor could not regard it as if he was idle when facing it.

In the past, Qiu Luan and other border soldiers dared to falsely claim their military achievements, but they rely on the cover of this chain of interests! Now Governor Li has made his "war record" so beautiful (it is that he really recaptured Tongzhou and there are Mongol prisoners, unlike Qiu Luan who killed his own people to come to the Ministry of War to repay their merits, but Qiu Luan also succeeded). If there are still people who dare to take the blame for the world and hinder everyone's wealth, they will inevitably be regarded as a great enemy by this chain of interests! At that time, the military censor who received the benefits will soon be

They will come forward to impeach, follow the Ministry of War to complain, then follow the Governor's Office of the Five Army, and then follow the combat troops to make a mutiny. If they meet Yang Tinghe and Xia Yan in peacetime, they may be able to suppress it. But now the Hu horse is not far away and the capital is panicked. How can Yan Song have the courage to resist the censor internally, suppress the Governor's Office, and the army that is close to you? If all these people strike, what will Yan Song use to deal with Altan?

Of course, not no one in the court dared to move such a net of interests, and there was really a force that checked and balanced it. But the highest representative of this force is Xu Jie - will Xu Jie move at this critical moment? How is that possible! What Li Yanzhi did was originally something that Xu Jie wanted to do but was trapped in the system and could not do! So Li Yanzhi knew that he would be safe. He also knew that this safety was temporary. After all, this place was near the capital. It was impossible to hide such a major event forever. However, he did not expect that this matter could be hidden for ten or eight years. All Li Yanzhi wanted was to overcome the biggest difficulty in front of him, and many things could be carried out according to the original plan.

However, Li Yanzhi did not expect that Qiu Luan would arrive at this time. Datong was not close to the capital and was not far away. Qiu Luan would come so quickly, of course it was not because he was loyal to the emperor and patriotism, nor because he was not afraid of Mongolia. In fact, he was afraid that Altan would be afraid of death, otherwise he would not have come up with such a bad idea to let Altan "take it somewhere else" if he didn't fight! He ran to Beijing, mainly because the court sent someone to negotiate with Altan. If Altan's people accidentally said: "It was your General Datong who asked us to come..." Even if Qiu Luan had a hundred heads, he had to move together!

Jiajing didn't know that the two generals he relied on at this moment did not have the ability to fight Altan head-on. Li Yanzhi was willing but not strong enough, and Qiu Luan didn't have the courage at all. However, Jiajing was a little excited by the good news that he arrived one after another. He immediately appointed Qiu Luan as the General of Pinglu, and ordered him to lead various troops to defend against Li Yanzhi.

At this time, the king-supporting troops arrived near the capital, as well as in the northern Zhili, Shanxi and even Shanhaiwei. Ding Rukui ordered Ding's generals, merged into Li Yanzhi's troops with 5,000 cavalry, and merged into Shang Dajie's troops with 12,000 people. The rest of the troops returned to Qiu Luan - Qiu Luan was a military man who had been generals for generations, so Ding Rukui believed that his ability to lead troops to fight should be better than Li Yanzhi.

Seeing that more than 100,000 troops had gathered in the capital, the people in the capital were very strong!

At this time, Qiu Luan boasted in front of the emperor again, saying that others are not afraid of me, Qiu Luan. In less than half a day, Li Yanzhi, who was stationed in Tongzhou, also heard a song saying: "There is a Qiu in the army, and the Hu people have to jump off the building!" Others don't know Qiu Luan's background, but Li Yanzhi, who was the former head of the Ministry of War and the commander of the Jinyiwei, understood it. After hearing this song, he couldn't help laughing and said to Qi Jiguang: "Qiu Luan's aide level is too limited! He can't even write a piece of staff - where can he jump on the grassland? Whatever he says jumps off the building is clearly the tone of the Han people!"

But Jiajing didn't think so. His account was settled like this: the cabinet always said that the capital was empty and unbearable for war, but Li Yanzhi could defeat Altan's main force with 30,000 "unbearable for war" troops to repel Tongzhou. It can be seen that Hu Ma was not that scary! What's more, now the great army of the kings, there is another general who may be stronger than Li Yanzhi. Isn't it a piece of cake to destroy Hu and avenge the shame?

Therefore, the army was ordered to attack on the entire line and destroy the captives!

Li Yanzhi originally hoped that regaining Tongzhou's victory would earn more political capital for Xu Jie and himself, so that Xu Jie had a greater say in the cabinet and could implement a more rational strategy, but he never expected that the "great victory" in Tongzhou would cause Jiajing to further misjudgment the situation and issue a more "unreasonable" order!

Li Yanzhi hurriedly wrote a letter and claimed that his memorial could not be reached directly in Jiajing at this time. The emperor held the memorial of Li Zhe, "the left assistant censor of the Censorate of the Censorate, and then looked at Qiu Luan's self-proclaimed self-proclaimedness, and couldn't help but smile and said, "After all, the Li Qing family was a civil servant, and they were not as brave as General Qiu!"

In the cabinet, Xu Jie also spoke cautiously and said, "The Hu people are powerful and the capital is weak. You must not be too hasty!"

"The Hu people are powerful?" Yan Song said, "When Tongzhou fought twice, our army won a great victory! Da Zongbo said that the capital was weak, could it be that the two great victory were fake?"

With just one sentence, Xu Jie was silent and dared not speak. Jiajing asked Yan Song what was outside. Yan Song said, "After Qiu Luan arrived in the capital, the whole city was cheering for His Majesty's great blessings and the sky, and it was said that the barbarians were destroyed forever!" Jiajing asked Lu Bing again, and Lu Bing had to say, "On the outside, after General Qiu arrived, they were indeed setting off firecrackers to celebrate."

Jiajing was overjoyed and said, "People's hearts are available, but people's hearts are available! If you should take it or not, you will be disgusted by heaven. I cannot repeat the mistakes of Fuchai!"

When Yan Song heard this, he shouted: "Your Majesty is wise! Your Majesty is wise!" In fact, if Yan Song said carefully, he didn't have any idea. If he wins the war in the future, he will make contributions, and he will not blame him for defeating him. His most powerful thing is that he will hide behind Jiajing in advance in the face of all possible troubles. Jiajing is a man who refuses to admit his mistakes. Even if he knows that he is wrong afterwards, he will never admit it. Since the emperor is right, he will follow the emperor and follow Yan Song, who is fueling the fire, will naturally be fine.

Li Yanzhi probably didn't expect that after he fought a "victory battle", Xu Jie would fall into a dilemma, and Yan Song immediately regained the cabinet's bull's ear!

On that day, the Ministry of War issued an order, ordering Shang Dajie, Qiu Luan and Li Yanzhi to advance together to destroy the barbarians!

After receiving the order, the three commanders were confused. Qiu Luan regretted that he had been bragging. Qi Jiguang was also from a general family. He had been influenced by the military since childhood. He had no resistance to Li Yanzhi's false claims of military achievements. Instead, he felt that Governor Li was using his power to make the overall situation. However, when he saw the order, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "Governor, if we continue like this, if we fight another 'winning battle', the court wouldn't ask us to go out of the frontier and clear the desert."

Li Yanzhi smiled bitterly and said, "Since the court has decided to march, we have to take orders."

Qi Jiguang said: "If we give us half a year to organize this army, we may have the power to fight, but now... we can't fight this battle now! If there is a head-on conflict, we can't fight Altan!" He is a rare general, but it is precisely because of the general that we know more when to fight and when not to fight!

Li Yan straight open the map and thought for a while and said, "It is our biggest weakness to not be able to fight a tough battle, but now we also have two major advantages. One is that there are too many people. Although most of the troops are not worth fighting, the number alone is enough to make the Hu people panic. The other is that we are fighting at home, and the Hu people are not sure about it!" He pointed to a place on the map and said, "When the army moves, let's not worry about Altan, just go here!"

Qi Jiguang's eyes lit up: "Aries' mouth!"

Arieskou is under the jurisdiction of Yanqing Vanguard, with a thousand households arranged. The terrain is dangerous and is one of the key roads to go out to Beijing.

"No," Li Yan knocked on Aries' mouth and said, "Yesterday, there were documents from the Aries' mouth office to ask me for my order. This place should not have fallen yet. After we set off, you will take over it and lead the troops here-" He stroked his fingers to another border, and Qi Jiguang blurted out, "Gubeikou! Governor, are you going to close the door and beat the dog?"

Li Yan smiled and said, "I'll talk about it later if I'm going to fight the dog, but as long as we make a closing situation first, the Mongols can be scared! Our army's morale has already risen. If there is natural danger to rely on, it should be fine to defend the city. But be careful not to fight against Altan's main force. We must remain unbeaten against Altan, so that he can't understand our reality and be afraid!"

Shang Dajie and Qiu Luan also have their own plans. Li Yanzhi really hopes that their actions can cooperate with him, but now he is not strong enough and his troops are mostly tricks. Not only do he want to deceive the enemy, but he also wants to deceive his own people. Shang Dajie and Qiu Luan are obviously not the ones who can cooperate with Li Yanzhi sincerely, so Li Yanzhi cannot be open and honest with them.

The three armies were dispatched together, Li Yanzhi was acting in danger with a scammer, and Qiu Luan was ulterior motives. Shang Dajie was relatively honest and actually drove to Altan. Li Yanzhi sent people to ask Shang Dajie to "take it slow" and even hinted that he should not move, but the cabinet and the Ministry of War issued ten orders in a day to urge him to fight. Shang Dajie could not withstand it, so he had to advance.

At this time, Altan had arrived in Changping. Changping was located in the northwest of the capital and Arieskou was southwest of Changping. Qiu Luan was afraid of death, so he suggested that Shangdajie be in the middle and live on the East Road by himself. Li Yanzhi was the West Road - the East Road is the farthest from the Mongolians, and in Qiu Luan's opinion, it was also the safest. Li Yanzhi's goal was Arieskou, so he agreed and Shangdajie had no objection.

Shortly after leaving the capital, Qiu Luan first recovered Shunyi in the east of Changping - this was a place where the Mongols had given up. Li Yanzhi ordered Qi Jiguang to lead three thousand cavalry to Aries' mouth. The Aries' mouth had indeed not fallen into the hands of the Mongols. Therefore, Qi Jiguang took over the place as soon as he arrived and followed Li Yanzhi to set up the place.

The Western Army and the Eastern Army were targeted clearly, but the Central Army and the Eastern Army were delayed. On the Mongolian side, Altan felt suspicious when he saw the Beijing city suddenly dispatching a large army. In the past two days, he sent envoys to Beijing for inquiries, and they all went there without returning! Even General Li did not send anyone to negotiate!

Half a day later, the central army of Shangdajie was approaching Changping. Altan sent people to Shangdajie's army to inquire. If Li Yanzhi was here, he might have used tricks and said, "We are here to escort your troops out of the frontier."

The so-called "escort" is a commonly used term in the Hu-Han War. In fact, after the Hu-Han reached a covenant, the Han people sent troops to supervise the Hu people to go out honestly. It was called escort the Hu people, but in fact it was to protect the people where the Hu people passed. This was a practice that has been formed over the past thousand years. If Shang Dajie said this and then slowly followed Altan, he might be able to "escort" these Mongolians out of the Great Wall safely.

But Shang Dajie was not very smart. Although he followed the rule of "two armies would not kill the envoys when fighting", he was righteous and scolded the Mongolian envoys and sent them back, proclaiming the Ming Emperor's decree to expel the captives! This time, he broke the window paper!

Li Yanzhi complained secretly after hearing the news, knowing that the war was about to break out at any time! All Mongolian tribes in Changping were uproars, and the tribe leaders complained, saying that Altan was deceived by the Han people! Some of the clan leaders who had been captured by the law enforcement cavalry sent by Li Yanzhi took the opportunity to attack, saying that Altan was betraying everyone for personal gain! Altan was so angry that he said, "Li Zhe, dare to bully me!"

If Jiajing could hold back, maybe Altan would retreat outside the Great Wall in a few days, but at this time, the Mongolian tribes had doubts about Altan's decision. In order to suppress the tribes and regain their prestige, Altan needed a big victory! Hu gathered together and said: "It's not that I'm bullying everyone, it's that Han ministers are capricious. I promised yesterday and today I will be defeated! We can't believe them anymore! Then we will fight to the Forbidden City and let the Emperor of Zhu personally agree to us to open the horse market!"

The Hus were responding! The Mongols acted quickly and fought when they said war! At this time, they all gathered in Changping again. Altan ordered, and 100,000 Hus were on their backs and ran out of Changping, and rushed towards the main force of Shang Dajie!

At this time, the Ming army was already very close to Changping. As soon as the Hu horse left the city, all the soldiers of Shangdajie Division felt a faint trembling under their feet, and then a sentry shouted: "Hu people! Hu people! Come! Come!"

Looking through the middle of the Ming army, I saw dust covering the sky like yellow clouds! How could this old, weak, sick, disabled, mixed, scattered, and dull troops see such a scene? Everyone was scared at first sight. Before they even got into the battle, more than half of them threw away their weapons and turned around and left! Some wanted to surrender but couldn't find a way, and some wanted to resist the surroundings but had no companions to respond, and they were in a mess!

Shang Dajie couldn't stop calling him, and the Mongols took the opportunity to rush over, and the central army collapsed across the board, and Shang Dajie himself died in the chaos!

When Li Yan heard the news, he was shocked and hurriedly led his troops to avoid being rushed to the defeated soldiers. He thought to himself: "I hope Qiu Luan can withstand it for a moment, so that we will still have a chance!"

However, Li Yanzhi underestimated Qiu Luan's shamelessness! When he heard the collapse of the central army, Qiu Luan turned around and ran away without thinking! He couldn't do anything else, but he was awesome! His speed was faster than the Mongol cavalry! He fled to Shunyi first, but he didn't dare to stay for a long time, but turned south, but did not dare to enter Beijing, so he ran into Tongzhou District first, thinking that if the Mongols came again, he should flee to Tianjin or bypass Beijing and flee back to Datong!

As soon as Qiu Luan fled like this, all the officers and soldiers from Changping to the capital followed him and fled cleanly! Therefore, after defeating Shang Dajie, Altan had no obstacles and broke into the city of Beijing again. This time, there was no army in the city that was pretending to behave!

Qiu Luan's general may advise him to go to Beijing to rescue the emperor quickly, saying, "Your front is a great achievement, this is a supreme merit! It's okay to be a marquis in the future!" However, Qiu Luan scolded him so much: "Great merit? Who the hell is asking for great merit now! Think about how to save your life!"

Li Yanzhi was quite surprised that Altan was advancing so quickly. He sighed and said to the generals: "Although I expected the defeat in the middle, I didn't expect it to be defeated so quickly! I didn't expect that the Eastern Army would not resist! Now there is no way, Beijing must protect me. I will lead my troops to the ninth level of the guard!" But he ordered Qi Jiguang to use a light cavalry to seize Gubeikou and continue to close the door and beat the dogs!

Qi Jiguang said: "Hu Ma is in a strong position, so it is not advisable to fight head-on!"

"I know this. So I still have to use a word to drag it out!" Li Yan said in a straightforward manner: "I will act carefully. But the chance of victory or defeat depends on Yuan Jing! I can only make Altan hesitate, only you can scare him!"

"Don't worry, the Governor!" Qi Jiguang said with a sigh: "The last general will definitely live up to his entrusted responsibility!"

When Li Yanzhi set out, Qiu Luan was also ready to escape! But at this moment, a terrible news suddenly came from the southeast direction: "Emergency! Emergency! There are police in the southeast!"

"What!" Qiu Luan was about to get on the horse and was so scared that his feet were stiff. He couldn't speak for a while! Altan came from the northwest, so he was about to escape southeast. Now, the retreat was blocked!

"When did the Mongols go around the southeast?" Qiu Luan said almost cryingly.

"No, not a Mongolian!"

"Not a Mongolian? What is that?"

"I don't know, they claim to be the king-supporting army, but they don't have any seals from the Ministry of War and the garrison's certificates! And I heard that they seemed to have come from the sea..."

"Sea... on the sea?" Qiu Luan remembered something and exclaimed: "Is it the Japanese pirates that won't be able to do it!"
