"Yutian reported that Liaodong Governor Yuan Chonghuan's troops had retreated to the Zhenzi Town area and retreated towards Qian'an City. On the way back, Liaodong Governor Yuan Chonghuan sent someone to submit a confession of guilt to Yutian and asked him to forward it to the military aircraft.

refers to the front;

Now that Yutian is ready to defend, Wang Hong, the commander-in-chief of Tianjin, led his troops to take over the defense of Yutian. He has the responsibility to defend the land. The city is still alive, but the city is broken and people die. Mangui troops followed the instructions of the minister and stationed in Fengrun...

“The Military Aircraft Office in Beijing reported that since His Majesty’s personal expedition, all ministries, courts, departments, roads, etc., under the command of the Minister of Assistant Affairs, have been actively preparing for various frontline needs;

The great victory in Shimen Town had a great impact on the DPRK and the Central Government. According to the instructions in front of the Military Aircraft Department, I issued an edict. I will stay in the Military Aircraft Department in Beijing and actively carry out various instructions. Sun Chuanting of Shuntian Prefecture will inform the wartime strategy, order..."

"The Supervisor of Ceremonies reported that in the name of the Emperor, slaves and maidservants were left to stay in the inner court. Since the Emperor's personal expedition, there have been many conflicts among the auxiliary ministers of the outer court.

The auxiliary ministers headed by Han Xu, as well as Zhou Yanru, Wen Tiren and other auxiliary ministers all expressed strong dissatisfaction with some strategies.

However, the overall situation in the outer dynasty is still stable. The British Duke is stationed in the capital camp, and Sun Chuanting has been appointed as the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture, which has stabilized the situation in Shenjing. In addition, according to the emperor's orders, the military situation..."

"The British Lord reported that since His Majesty's personal expedition, I have not relaxed my vigilance in rectifying the Beijing camp, but the Minister of Assistant Affairs of the Central Government..."

Pointing to the main hall in front of the Military Aircraft Department, a series of memorials were submitted from various places, including important military matters. Under the tacit understanding of several military counselors, Emperor Chongzhen read them alternately. Emperor Chongzhen frowned, stood with his arms crossed, and looked at the map hanging in front of him. Wang Qia

, Li Guanghua had different expressions and stepped forward from time to time to mark the map accordingly.

How should I put it? Affected by the Jianlu invasion of the Ming Dynasty and the personal conquest of Emperor Chongzhen, both Shenjing and the prefectures and counties under the rule of Northern Zhili experienced considerable changes.

"Two dear friends, what do you think when you hear these memorials and the important military affairs?" Emperor Chongzhen stared at the map in front of him and said to Wang Qia and Li Banghua beside him.

"This is really in line with that sentence. The front line is tight, and the back line is tight. These auxiliary ministers I appointed all have their own rhetoric. It is an eye-opener for me."

The main hall, which had been filled with constant voices before, became quiet at this moment. The military counselors who read out the speech all endured their dry mouths and looked at Wang Qia and Li Banghua, who were silent.

At this moment, they finally understood why the emperor had earlier chosen to lead the expedition in person, instead of staying in Shenjing and arranging the fight against the Jianqi from behind.

"Okay, since you don't want to talk about it, let's not mention the matter in Shenjing."

Seeing Wang Qian, Li Banghua did not reply. Emperor Chongzhen turned around, looked at them with arms akimbo, and said: "The military plane will come forward later to draft an edict and send it to Shenjing.

Explaining the current war situation and the needs of the troops stationed everywhere, he ordered the Military Aircraft Department to stay in Beijing, together with the auxiliary ministers, to complete the task as scheduled. If it cannot be completed, he will be dismissed and investigated!

Another order was sent to the Supervisor of Li Ming, instructing the Bingzhan Bureau to distribute the mass-produced Zhentian Lei, bagged granular gunpowder, and bagged lead bullets in batches within a three-day period.

When it was transported to Tongzhou City, three guards at the front, middle and back were temporarily set up, and the necessary civilian post teams were mobilized to transport it to Jizhou as scheduled.

By the way, an edict was also sent to the Royal Horse Supervisor, ordering Gao Qiqian and them to join the British Duke Zhang Weixian and Yin Sunchuanting of Shuntian Prefecture to replenish the four-guard camp that had been emptied previously, and they would be under the rule of Shuntian Prefecture.

Selection and training at the camp outside Guangqumen."

"I accept the decree!"

Wang Qia stepped forward and answered with his hands raised.

Since the situation now revolves around fighting against the invading Jianlu, Emperor Chongzhen will definitely not miss it and continue to strengthen the army directly under his jurisdiction.

As long as the Jianlu can be defeated in this battle, the surviving soldiers of the Yongwei Battalion, Tianxiong Army, and Zhongyong Army who participated in the battle will be the best backbone for expansion. When the time comes to return to the DPRK with a great victory, they will be able to regroup.

It's time to go to Beijing.

"Let's talk about the report from Shimen Town."

Emperor Chongzhen turned around, looked at the map in front of him with his hands on his hips, and said: "According to the investigation, the Jianlu in the Zunhua City area were heading towards the Santun Camp.

What are your thoughts on this?

Let me tell you my opinion first. I feel that Huang Taiji can no longer sit still, and I want to break the current situation of the Ming Dynasty, so that the soldiers and horses guarding everywhere can follow suit.

So if the guess is correct, I am afraid that at this time, the Jianlu troops led by Huang Taiji will launch a corresponding offensive in the direction of Qian'an City."

Wang Qia and Li Banghua frowned, thinking about the speculations made by Emperor Chongzhen. Judging from the reports from Shimen Town, before the Tianxiong and Zhongyong armies arrived at Shimen Town, the senior Jianlu officials from Zunhua had already arrived.

This plan was made clear.

The root cause of this result was that the Jianlu team, which was previously sent to Jizhou, was led to Sanhe by Qian Longxi without permission, and was killed by Emperor Chongzhen's order.

"If it is as your Majesty said, the pressure on Qian'an will be great." Wang Qia frowned and said: "Yuan Chonghuan did not respect the instructions issued by the Military Aircraft Department and mobilized his troops without authorization to leave Qian'an City. This will inevitably cause trouble in the East

There is a gap in line defense.

At this time, Jianlu took action. I am afraid that he had an insight into this point, and I think that what your majesty said is very likely.

Your Majesty, in the name of military aircraft being deployed forward, do you want the Mangui troops stationed in Fengrun to gallop to the Luanhe River to block and harass the main force of the Jianlu forces who may invade?"

Li Banghua followed closely and said: "I feel that what Wang Shangshu said is very true. Putting aside everything else, in the current critical situation, Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of Liaodong, has been deprived of his power in disguise.

And when he wanted to enter Yutian, Sun Gong, who was entrusted with an important task by His Majesty, entered Yutian before him and ordered him to return to Qian'an as soon as possible to take charge of the defense affairs on the eastern front.

If Zunhua is captured before this, if the Jianlu of the Three Tun Camps send a letter to Yuan Chonghuan, there is no guarantee that he will not be thinking about other things. This..."

Compared with some of the Donglin Party officials who talk a lot, Wang Qia, Li Banghua and others are relatively pragmatic Donglin Party officials who can win over and entrust them with important tasks after beating them.

There are so many black and white labels in this world. Not everything is right, and not everything is wrong. This is especially true in the political arena.

"I don't think it's appropriate."

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said: "I understand the intention of the two dear ministers. Check for leaks and fill them to prevent the defense of the eastern front, so that the invaders who may invade can break through and threaten the Shanhaiguan defense line."

While saying this, Emperor Chongzhen stepped forward, pointed at the map in front of him, looked at Wang Qia, Li Banghua and others, and continued to explain his thoughts.

"But dear dears, have you ever thought in your hearts that if our military planes are forward and we really issue such an order, will we jump into the rhythm of Jianlu's attack again?"

"Aren't the things I have been planning and deploying all this time just to get rid of Jianlu's offensive rhythm and let Ming Dynasty give full play to its own advantages?"

"Although the Jianlu who invaded the Ming Dynasty were strong, they also had several shortcomings. One was that they traveled long distances and fought in different places, the other was that they did not carry artillery under their command, and the other was that they did not have enough troops to invade the Ming Dynasty. But these are all our Ming Dynasty

’s strengths.”

"As long as we can think outside the box, focus on these shortcomings, and use our own strengths to overcome the enemy's weaknesses, do you think our Ming Dynasty can defeat and repel the enemy's invasion in a short period of time?"

Where is the prisoner?"

After Emperor Chongzhen made some remarks and called Wang Qia, Li Banghua fell into deep thought. Indeed, if he really wanted to follow what they said, he would really jump into the rhythm of Jianlu's attack again.

But in the current situation, how should we break it and how should we launch an offensive?

"The military aircraft are forward, and we will immediately send an order to Shimen Town." Seeing Wang Qia and the others acting like this, Emperor Chongzhen stood with his arms crossed and said loudly.

"After ordering Lu Xiangsheng to receive the order, he immediately mobilized the main force of his subordinates and marched towards Da'ankou to recapture this important pass that had been stolen by the Jianqiu!!
