I, Jiajing, join the Ming Emperor chat group

Chapter 30
For dozens of days in a row, news about the battle of Beijing between Dashun and Ming Dynasty spread throughout the northern provinces.

It is undoubtedly very surprising that Daming was able to defeat Chuang Wang Li Zicheng under the city of Beijing.

After all, the Dashun army is in a state of invincibility, and the Ming army is in decline. Even if it can hold Beijing, there is no reason to win so easily. Therefore, after learning of the victory of the Ming army, the Daming army towns that originally surrendered to the Shun army held up the flag of the Ming Dynasty, and all of them said that they are loyal ministers and generals of the Ming Dynasty.

In particular, Jiang Yu, the defender of Datong, is the main one.

This Jiang Yu is also a veteran general. The Jiang family has been famous generals for generations. The elder brother Jiang Rang is the general soldier of Yulin, Shaanxi, and the younger brother Jiang Xuan is the deputy general of Shanxi Yanghe.

When King Chuang attacked Yulin, Jiang Rang had already joined Li Zicheng first, but later when he attacked Shanxi, Jiang Xuan died for his country, while Jiang Yu didn't even "fire three shots in the sky, even if he repays Emperor Chongzhen", he chose to surrender directly.

Now that Li Zicheng was defeated, Jiang Yu also beat the dog in the water without hesitation. Together with his elder brother Jiang Rang, who had surrendered to Li Zicheng's command earlier, he suddenly changed.

A total of 27 generals from Li Chuang's department were beheaded, more than [-] people were beheaded, and [-] people were captured.

Among Li Zicheng's generals, Zuo Guangxian, Song Qijiao, etc. anyway, Liu Fangliang, who managed Henan and other places, wanted to lead an army to help him after learning of Li Zicheng's defeat, but he ran into the Fubo camp that had just been pursued to no avail.

The whole of the north has changed due to the defeat of Dashun. Among the people, there are more and more news about the resurrection of Emperor Hongwu, Emperor Yongle and Emperor Jiajing, and the news that Emperor Chongzhen came to rescue Emperor Chongzhen with heavenly soldiers and generals. In particular, Emperor Chongzhen received tax relief for the first time in recent years, which made the people more sure of this.

I heard that Emperor Chongzhen was whipped by Emperor Hongwu!
Or Hongwu Emperor Su Aimin.

Some people who have never been coerced into rebellion and are still struggling to support themselves think so in their hearts.

But now in the city of Beijing, nearly 20 soldiers and horses have been assembled.

In the Hongwu and Jiajing dynasties, there were still 20 elite soldiers stationed, which was the peak of the [-] troops.

In addition, there is also the original [-]th Regiment Battalion of the Chongzhen Dynasty, with about [-] soldiers and horses.

Governor Feng Yuanyang of Tianjin, General Lou Guangxian of Tianjin, and Yuan Yuzong, deputy envoy of Tianjin Dao, led about [-] Northern Zhili soldiers and horses, and it was 'late' to rescue them.

On the other hand, Jiang Yu personally led ten thousand Datong defenders to come, together with Wang Fuchen, to plead guilty to the emperor, and the army was also stationed around Beijing.

Of the remaining [-] li, [-] were rescue soldiers from Henan and Shandong, Wang Zhigang from Kaifeng, Liu Fangming from Liugou, Ma Dai from Dongchang, and Xu Dingguo, etc. The remaining [-] were soldiers from the Shun Army.

The four Jiangbei towns and Shi Kefa did not lead too many troops, but each of them brought a thousand people, a total of 4000 people went north to rescue him.

All of a sudden, the peak of soldiers in Beijing reached its peak.

However, with more and more soldiers and horses coming to rescue him, Zhu Youjian's face became more and more ugly.

After all, when the intruder approached the capital, these loyal ministers and good generals basically disappeared. I have the protection of my ancestors on my side.

But Zhu Houcong performed much better.

For more than ten days, he has been in the Chongzhen Dynasty and has not left.

At this moment, after asking about his son's situation, Zhu Yuanzhang left the Chongzhen Dynasty and returned to his wife and children in the Hongwu Dynasty.

After all, as far as he is concerned, staying in Chongzhen Chaochun to make troubles is worse than going back to accompany sister Ma who is just recovering from a serious illness.

The [-] soldiers of the Hongwu Dynasty and Xu Da, the real God of War of the Ming Dynasty, were kept back.

Before leaving, Zhu Yuanzhang handed over the full authority of the soldiers of the Hongwu Dynasty to Zhu Houcong, and Xu Da had no objection: after all, Zhu Houcong is also a real son of heaven.

If Zhu Yuanzhang is needed, don't worry about anything, just ask Zhu Youjian to send an application for assistance, and Zhu Yuanzhang will naturally accept it.

This is a benefit. Now Zhu Youjian's world is marked as a "world to be aided", so he can send out requests for assistance continuously. If there is any special need, he can even apply to Zhu Di, and let Zhu Di parachute [-] soldiers over immediately.

Zhu Houcong sat on the futon of the capital, looking at the large list of lists Zhu Youjian handed over, Zhu Houcong's eyes were slightly chilled.

Most of these generals who came to "help" surrendered to the Manchus in history and worked for the Manchus.

For example, Liu Fangming, Xu Dingguo, Wang Zhigang, Wang Fuchen, etc., of course, there were also those who surrendered and then rebelled, and rebelled and surrendered again.

For example, the capricious Datong defender Jiang Yu, this person is a typical representative. Li Zicheng came and surrendered to Li Zicheng. Li Zicheng left and raised the banner of the Ming Dynasty.

"Grandpa Gao, should these generals be killed?"

Zhu Youjian stood in front of Zhu Houcong, his tone was cold now, he seemed to be very familiar with killing officials and generals, and after learning about these Ming traitors from Zhu Houcong, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart anymore.

"Not urgent."

Zhu Houcong shook his head, and then said: "Most of these people are still armed with soldiers and horses. If they are slaughtered, it will inevitably cause panic among other generals. We should focus on appeasement. Now that the world is uncertain, Jiannu is eyeing them like a tiger. If Jiang Yu is like this, his crimes can be forgiven and he can continue to lead troops to resist Jiannu."

"As for Shi Kefa, Huang Degong and other loyal officials, they should be rewarded."

While looking at the list, Zhu Houcong suddenly saw a name, and frowned instantly: "Call this Xuzhou General Li Chengdong, who is under the command of Chief Military Officer Gao Jie, this person is extremely hateful, and he will inevitably be responsible for his crimes!"

If Li Chengdong, the general of Xuzhou, only surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, then he can only be said to be one of the many surrendered generals.

But after he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, he was very diligent and rushed to the forefront to fight the world for the Qing Dynasty. Yangzhou Ten Days, Jiading Three Massacres, Guangdong Massacre, these massacres created by the Qing army all had this guy!
Therefore, after Zhu Houcong saw the name, he snorted coldly without hesitation.

After Zhu Youjian nodded, he immediately acted according to Zhu Houcong's intention, and at the same time said:

"Grandpa Gao, my current cabinet is empty. I want Shi Kefa to join the cabinet and Huang Degong to be the governor of Shandong."

"Tianjin Governor Feng Yuanyang is also good. He is a loyal minister. There are not many civil servants who understand military art. His younger brother was once my Minister of War. I plan to make him serve as Minister of War for a term."

Zhu Youjian originally wanted Shi Kefa to come, but when Zhu Houcong said that although Shi Kefa was loyal, his ability to fight was obviously smeared, so he changed his words immediately.

Hearing Zhu Youjian's words, Zhu Houcong couldn't help being amused: What's wrong with the brothers of the Feng family, you didn't cheat the second child to cheat the boss, right?
The Shangshu of the Ministry of War in the Chongzhen Dynasty was a high-risk occupation.

During the 17 years of Chongzhen's reign, fourteen ministers of the Ministry of War were replaced, seven of whom were executed, six were dismissed and investigated, and only one retired with honor, that is Feng Yuanyang's younger brother Feng Yuanxi.

Moreover, Feng Yuanxi only retired when he was about to die of illness, and the probability of dying for Chongzhen as Minister of the Ministry of War is even higher than if you go to the front to fight.

Throwing this strange thought out of Zhu Houcong's mind, Zhu Houcong continued: "Shanhaiguan is not far from Beijing. It's been nearly [-] days. I don't see Wu Sangui's urgent report. There may be some problems. Tell the spies to always pay attention to the situation in Shanhaiguan!"

"Yes, Grandpa Gao!"

Zhu Youjian nodded, and as soon as he left the palace gate, he saw Zhu Houcong's baby brother Lu Bing rushing into the hall, bowed to Zhu Houcong on one knee, and respectfully presented the report:
"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Shanhaiguan that Wu Sangui has been surrendered!"

"Dorgon, the regent of Manchuria, granted Wu Sangui the title of King Pingxi, the general who conquered the South, and the governor's headquarters of the Han army."

"Qing army, enter the customs!"

　The next member of the group is to let Zhu Qizhen come in first, or Zhu Qiyu to come in first. QQ
