"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, good news! Good news"

The person who is called "Emperor" is Jin Fulin. He is not officially the emperor now, but in Beijing, his subordinates still call him the emperor. Fulin doesn't stop them from calling him "Emperor". He is quite pleasant and listenable.

One day at a time!

As for Zhu Cixiang's crusade, he didn't care because all the information gathered pointed out the reality that the war between him and Ming Dynasty was not over yet!

Because he couldn't give up the city of Beijing, and he couldn't even go to Tumo River. The water and soil in Tumo River were far worse than those around Beijing, and even the Bashang Grassland to the north of Yanshan Mountain couldn't compare. If he really went there, he would just go there.

Slowly starving to death.

Moreover, Guihua City was in dilapidated condition due to the destruction by the Qing army in the early years and could not be defended at all. There were no natural dangers to rely on around Tumo River, so it was easily invaded by King Zhu Cijiong and the surrounding Mongolian tribes.

Especially the king Zhu Cijiong. He had many Datong soldiers who hated the Qing Dynasty. Once Fulin moved west to Tumochuan, he would almost certainly be attacked by Zhu Cijiong's troops. When the time comes, he would be naturalized and become the second Datong.

Therefore, after repeated weighing, Fulin and his ministers believed that it would be more advantageous not to hand over Beijing.

Moreover, Fulin in the city of Beijing is not without some trump cards. He still has a strong city to rely on, soldiers to use, and the military rations he has accumulated over the years to eat. Thinking of this food, Fulin couldn't help but shed tears. Then

They are all the inheritance left by Dorgon. They were saved by Dorgon during the five-year armistice period. There are nearly three million shi of flour, millet, and soybeans in total! This food is enough for the soldiers and soldiers guarding the city.

The family can eat it for several years!

Sure enough, the only Amma in the world who is good to Zhu Cixi is Amma!

Fulin didn't believe it. Emperor Zhu was really capable of keeping an army of tens to 100,000 people under the walls of Beijing for several years!

Although the Wei River waterway was opened by the Ming army, and Tianjin Wei became a storage place for the Ming army, the canal from Tianjin to Beijing had many siltation and damage, and it would be difficult to use without repair. Therefore, the Ming army's canal

The cost of transporting grain is not low. If there are as many as 100,000 people to eat, plus the livestock, and the civilians who transport it, it will be a huge consumption.

In addition to the fortified city of Beijing, in the autumn of the seventh year of Hongxing, Fulin had another ace in his hand, which was the return of all the traitors in the world.

Emperor Zhu's punishment of traitors such as Fan Wencheng, Sun Sike, Li Shutai, Xu Dingguo, Geng Jimao, etc. was too harsh to the point of brutality. Although it shocked the people of Zhongzhou, it also had side effects, that is, those who had not yet fallen into the hands of the Ming army

Hands of big traitor desperate fear.

In fact, Emperor Zhu did this not entirely because he hated the traitors. If he really hated the traitors, how could Zu Dashou be fine? Zhu Cixiang used torture to punish the traitors in order to scare the monkeys and scare the people!

From the early years of Chongzhen to the present, Zhongzhou has experienced successive wars and rampant banditry. The people had to form strongholds to protect themselves, and local tycoons emerged as the times require.

Most of these powerful backbones had participated in various struggles against the rule of the Ming Dynasty. Those who really wanted to firmly support the Ming Dynasty would have gone to the Southern Dynasties to become heroes.

Therefore, Zhu Cixiang wants to quickly establish local government in Zhongzhou, inspect the land, and use part of the land to reward heroes and warriors, which is very likely to annoy these small powerful people. If he can't act more ferociously now, chaos will really break out, and the trouble will be even greater.

.

The conflicts surrounding the land in Zhongzhou also prompted a group of small traitors to unite around Fulin, the "Emperor of the Second Ring Road".

Therefore, more and more good news has reached Fulin's ears these days.

Fulin, who was in a daze on the Meishan Fortress looking at an old locust tree with a crooked neck that had appeared in his nightmares, turned around and saw that the person coming was "Little Bachelor" Sony.

Fulin was no longer the emperor, so of course everyone under his command had to be demoted. When Sony was a freshman, he changed his name from a bachelor's degree to a "young bachelor's degree", which is commonly known as a junior bachelor's degree. It sounds a bit like the degree awarded when graduating from elementary school.

"Sony," Fulin put aside his thoughts and smiled a little, "Who else has come to Beijing to join us?"

"Shang Ke is glad to have arrived!" Sony said, "He came from Shanxi with fifteen thousand elite soldiers and more than fifty thousand dependents. He also brought hundreds of thousands of kilograms of Jiezhou salt, tens of thousands of stones of Shanxi millet,

Tens of thousands of large livestock.”

Shang Kexi was sealed in Pingyang Mansion because he stood correctly in the Battle of Jieshi Mountain, and was therefore not within the first wave of attacks by the Ming army. However, seeing the fate of Geng Jimao and Fan Wencheng, he did not dare to stay.

Instead, he fled with his troops to Beijing and took refuge with Fulin.

"Okay!" Fulin smiled, "With the addition of 15,000 elite soldiers, we will be a little more sure of guarding the city of Beijing."

"There's more!" Sony continued, "Geng Zhongming and Kong Tingxun also came from Datong with some of their old troops. Their combined strength is more than a thousand. Although they are all elderly veterans, they

All of them have been in the killing array and have a bloody feud with the Ming Dynasty."

Geng Zhongming and Kong Tingxun were on the wrong team in the Battle of Jieshi Mountain, so they lost their positions as vassal kings. However, Duduo did not kill them, but handed them over to the care of Jierhalang. Geng Jimao and Fan Wencheng took the throne.

Then some elderly veterans were sent to Datong Mansion to protect them.

"He must be a loyal minister!" Fulin nodded, "Although our name of Qing Dynasty does not exist, as long as there are such loyal ministers, we will be able to revive! Is there any news on the grassland? When will Jierharang and Chang Adai

Can you get there?"

Compared with Shang Kexi, Geng Zhongming, and Kong Tingxun, the three great traitors, Fulin hoped to get the support of old Manchuria and steppe Mongolia.

Because he needed the cavalry from Old Manchuria and Mongolian steppe to harass the rear of the Ming army, and he could not hold the isolated city of Beijing, otherwise no matter how much food Dorgon left behind, he would eventually run out.

Someone must guard the strongholds in the Yanshan Mountains near Beijing, such as Huailaiwei, Yanqing Prefecture, Juyongguan, Bohaisuo, Chaohesuo, and Baiyangkou, in order to disperse the strength of the Ming army.

At the same time, it would also be convenient for Fulin to break out and escape when the city of Beijing was attacked.

"There is no news on the grassland for the time being." Sony's face, which was full of joy just now, has become a little stiff. "As for Jierhalang and Chang Adai, someone sent a memorial."

As he spoke, two envelopes were already in Sony's hands.

Fulin's face darkened when he saw the envelope.

This is not a memorial!

"I won't watch!" Fulin said, "You can tell me!"

"Chang Adai said that he will lead the elite troops of Taiyuan Prefecture to station in Xuanfu to provide strong support to Beijing." Sony said, "Jierhalang said that with him guarding Datong Prefecture, it will be impregnable. In addition, he also sent people

Go to Tumochuan to repair the city, appease the people, and prepare for His Majesty’s move.”

"Bastard!" Fulin's face turned livid, "Isn't this old fox Jierhalang trying to take refuge in Tumochuan?"

In fact, Jierhalang and Chang Adai no longer have much strength. They both sent elite troops to support Duduo and fought in the battle of Dian, but they all suffered heavy losses.

Sony whispered: "Your Majesty, I heard some rumors."

"explain!"

"If Your Majesty does not go and naturalize, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty will make Jierhalang the naturalized county prince and the governor of Tumochuan."

"Jierhalang deserves death!" Fulin's voice trembled, his eyes were burning, he raised his head and looked to the west. He didn't know if he wanted to see Jierhalang's face thousands of miles away, but Jierhalang

I didn't see it, but I saw an old locust tree with a crooked neck.

"Here comes someone!" Fulin shouted.

Sony was frightened at that time, and he knelt down to Fulin, "No! Your Majesty, now is not the time to attack Jilharang."
Chapter completed!
