When the voices of the Mongolians singing war hymns in unison crossed the walls of the inner city of Beijing and reached a pavilion full of powdery smell in the Bada Hutong, Empress Dowager Bumubutai of the Qing Dynasty and Prince Gong Chang Ning were presiding over a special ceremony here.

’s court meeting.

Because of yesterday's "national crisis", the whereabouts of many important ministers who stayed in Beijing are unknown. Therefore, there were not many important ministers in Beijing attending today's court meeting, but there were still a few important figures.

For example, that Yin Jin Duoduo of Shuntian Prefecture has now gone up and has become an important minister with meritorious service. He has just been appointed as the Minister of Tuanlian of Zhili Province. He was ordered to work with Prince Gong and Prince Chang Ning of Fuyuan appointed by Bu Mu Butai to mobilize troops in the outer city of Beijing.

The young men organized the Northern Expeditionary Army

There is also Jin Duoduo's noble relative, Jin Shide, who was officially appointed as the governor of Zhili, and now he has come to Bada Hutong - he was shocked to hear that Burney was causing trouble in Beijing last night, and led 200 cavalrymen to rush from Baoding for more than 200 miles overnight.

Came to Beijing to escort the driver.

His 1,800 pacesetters are also on their way to Beijing. When they arrive, Bumbutai and Chang Ning will have a relatively reliable army in their hands.

Emperor Kangxi's two uncles, Tong Guogang and Tong Guowei, the ministers in charge of the bodyguard, were highly valued by the Empress Dowager because of their merits in escorting the emperor to the eight major alleys.

Among them, Tong Guogang replaced Chang Ning as the nine-men admiral, responsible for rectifying the few remaining green battalions of the third patrol battalion in preparation for the upcoming Northern Expedition.

Tong Guogang served as the minister in charge of the Eight Banners Hutong... He was responsible for the daily life and safety of a group of Eight Banners disciples and their family members who temporarily lived in the Bada Hutong. He was also responsible for selecting a few Eight Banners soldiers who seemed to be okay.

The son participated in the Northern Expedition.

In addition, the Tianjin general Wang Yuxi has also been promoted. Although his Tianjin soldiers lost more than a thousand in yesterday's chaos, they still have two thousand left. They are now guarding Zhengyangmen, Xuanwumen, Chongwenmen and Beijing Neighborhood.

The two turrets on the south wall of the city are occupied by these Tianjin soldiers.

Therefore, Wang Yuxi was promoted to Admiral of Zhili by Bu Mu Butai, and he was also prepared to make contributions in the Northern Expedition.

After some adjustments, Empress Dowager Bumubutai of the Qing Dynasty finally had some capital in her hands and could say some harsh words.

So when she heard the song of the Mongolian warriors, she hummed loudly: "This Burni is really audacious to the extreme. He actually restored his Yuan Dynasty in the Forbidden City... Wu Sangui and Zhu Heji occupied so many

He dared not proclaim himself emperor easily even if he had no territory. He dared to proclaim himself emperor without even taking over the entire inner city of Beijing. Isn't this suicidal?

Now I have given orders to General Bahai of Shengjing, Prince Bandi of Horqin, and King Erdeni of Horqin County, asking them to immediately march into the territory of Chahar Zhasak Banner in Yizhou, and then sweep from east to west.

The territory of Chahar’s left wing banners!

In a few days, Bourne will have to leave Beijing in despair! Exit the Great Wall!"

Bumbutai's words were actually meant to stabilize people's hearts. What she fears most now is the separation of people's hearts.

As long as the people in the outer city of Beijing remain popular, Burney will not be able to stay in the inner city of Beijing for long... If the old lady can quickly collect the people's hearts, she can form a Northern Expedition army and send troops from the Bada Hutong to attack

There are rebels occupying the Forbidden City.

The old lady knew only too well the combat effectiveness of the Chahar Mongolian soldiers in Burni.

Those Mongolian soldiers couldn't fight at all. If they hadn't succeeded in the sneak attack this time and caught the Qing army in Beijing by surprise, Chang Ning and Wang Yuxi's thousands of green soldiers could have defeated them.

So the key now is not here in Beijing, but on the Henan front line. If Chang Ning and the others can regain the Forbidden City in a short time... Kangxi's side may be able to hold on until Wu Yingqi withdraws his troops by blocking information and other means.

Therefore, Bumbutai simply concealed the news of the fall of the Forbidden City, and only sent someone to inform Kangxi that "Burni conspired to rebel, raided the capital, and is currently quelling the chaos, so he should not be distracted."

Thinking of this, Bumbutai asked again: "How many people can we gather now?"

General Chang Ning of Fuyuan said: "The imperial grandmother, grandson and Jinfu Yin have recruited more than 10,000 men in the outer city of Beijing. They have also raised 150,000 taels of silver, 50,000 shi of white rice, flour, 2,000 jins of white sugar, and 3,000 jins of fire salt.

and thousands of iron or copper jars.”

In order to regain the Forbidden City, Chang Ning no longer cared about "the spread of sugar". Not only did he collect white sugar and saltpeter in the outer city of Beijing, he also personally informed Wang Yuxi, Jin Duoduo and others of the secret of the sugar medicine, and also asked Jin Duoduo to come from the outer city.

The Eight Imperial Merchant Offices of the Eight Great Imperial Chambers of Commerce were looking for people to help boil sugar and medicine to make explosives.

Chang Ning said to Bu Mu Butai: "In three days at most, Sun'er's people will be able to prepare five thousand sky thunders!"

"The Empress Dowager," said Zhili Governor Jin Shide, "in three days, all the servants' pacesetters will be here."

Tong Guogang said: "The Empress Dowager, the servants and Wang Junmen have more than 3,000 people, plus the 2,000 from Jin Futai, and the more than 10,000 strong men from the outer city of Beijing, we can make up 15,000 people."

come out.

If there are 5,000 more sky thunders to assist in the battle, we will definitely be able to recapture the Forbidden City!"

Bumubutai nodded heavily and said loudly: "Okay, three days will be three days. Today will not be counted. Add three more days and it will be the seventeenth... On January 18th, we will march out of the eight alleys and march north to the Forbidden City."

Forbidden City! We must drive the traitors out of the Forbidden City in one fell swoop!"

...

The news that the Qing army in the outer city of Beijing was planning a counterattack and was also preparing to send 20,000 troops to the northern expedition to the Forbidden City on January 18th. On the afternoon of January 14th, the news had already reached the inner city of Beijing...

It spread really fast!

After hearing the news, Monk Yang Qilong immediately dropped everything he was doing and hurried back to the Qianqing Palace in the Forbidden City to find Burni, who had become the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty.

Burney already knew about this, but he didn't care at all.

"On the 18th..." Burney, who was pacing in the magnificent Qianqing Palace, smiled and said, "At that time, the emperor had already left... If Beijing is ruined, whoever wants it will

Take it away! By the way, which one of you two wants Beijing City?"

Isn't this too shameless?

You just robbed and left, and you want to leave a mess to us?

It is rare for Monk Yang Qilong and Monk Zhixin to reach an agreement this time!

"Your Majesty, this city of Beijing is your capital! Why don't you want it if you don't want it?"

"Yes, are you worthy of Genghis Khan? You have to stay and defend Dadu!"

Burni was amused by their words and said with a smile: "Listen, listen, is this what the ministers of the Ming Dynasty and Zhou Dynasty said who wanted to expel the Tartars? I am the Great Khan of the Tartars! You don't need to expel them.

, I will go on my own...Leave Beijing to you!"

He said he was a Tartar... This guy still wants to be called "Genghis God Blessed Khan", there is no one like him.

"Give it to us? How can we hold on?" Shang Zhixin was really on the verge of tears after hearing this. The people he had on hand would never be able to hold on in the Deshengmen Urn City when the Mongols fled.

.

Yang Qilong's face was also livid, "We agreed at the beginning that Beijing belongs to the Third Prince of Heaven! You are not keeping your word and deceiving the new Ming Dynasty! The consequences of deceiving the new Ming Dynasty are something you Mongolians cannot bear!"

"Yes!" Shang Zhixin also said, "You cannot bear the consequences of deceiving the president!"

Of course Burney did not dare to break up with the Zhou Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty. His sneak attack on Beijing had already offended the Qing Dynasty to death.

If Zhou and Ming are added to the equation, then the three countries will come to deal with him. How can he be the Great Khan?

Thinking of this, he smiled and said to Shang Zhixin, Yang Qilong: "King Pingnan, Military Advisor Yang, how about this... I will lend you some Mongolian cavalry. You can take the cavalry and go first, while the Qing Dynasty

When the army comes to Beijing, go and occupy some territory elsewhere, which will make it easier to persist. If you have no place to go, you can follow me and retreat to the grassland first."

He then said to Yang Qilong: "Commander Yang, I was able to break into Beijing so smoothly this time, thanks to your help.
Chapter completed!
