    "Woooo" The horn sounded in the middle of the night.

    Every camp within a radius of nearly ten miles was awakened by the sound of the trumpet. Each battalion was immediately alert, and then the team officers hurriedly gathered their troops.

    Fortunately, the New Army has always practiced rigorously. When the trumpet sounded, each battalion responded quickly, and in a short time, they had already assembled.

    This is Liu Chengfeng's central army. A group of troops and horses are still behind and are advancing one after another. Therefore, they are all new army troops. One hundred thousand new troops, plus tens of thousands of civilians, are all attracted by this inexplicable trumpet sound.  When I woke up, I couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

    Soon, all battalions received orders and were all ready to face the enemy.

    When the news came out, although no one questioned it, everyone already understood that the Mongols were coming.

    But this place is only thirty or forty miles away from the capital, how could there be any enemy situation here?

    Some people even had the luck to think that this was just an emergency drill as before, but soon everyone gave up this ridiculous idea.

    The officers and soldiers of each battalion received the order and began to enter the designated places to garrison with torches. All ministries were required to load gunpowder. Even the civilian husbands were awakened and asked to help dig deep trenches and arrange horse tripping rope locks.

    All of this is becoming more and more unusual.

    In the Chinese army camp, Liu Chengfeng received several reports from the scouts one after another. The Mongols really launched an attack. They first pretended to attack Jinzhou and pretended to try to capture Liaodong, but they turned around and attacked directly.  Within the pass.

    Originally all Ming army units were stationed in fortresses and fortresses, but faced with the Mongolian offensive, many border generals were at a loss. The final result was that a large number of fortresses were easily captured by the Mongols, causing the entire front to collapse.  People were panicked, and the border troops with low morale actually began to flee. In the end, such retreats became more and more frequent. In the end, almost everywhere the Mongols went, there was a rumble and countless deserters.

    Morale is a very mysterious thought. The most important thing for a good military attache is to be able to understand the soldiers' thoughts and concerns at all times, and then prescribe the right medicine to boost their morale.  Some confused military attach¨¦s, instead of boosting their morale, became frightened and uneasy after encountering an incident. The generals were frightened and frightened, and the people below were naturally moved.

    In the final analysis, this is inseparable from the fact that Liu Jin appointed private officers at that time. This group of military attaches who were not qualified at all took over the official positions. In addition, not long after they took office, there was already a gap between them and their subordinates. Once a powerful enemy appeared, the morale of the military would be shaken.  , the consequences can be imagined.

    More importantly, it is said that even Jixian County has been conquered by the Mongols. Zhu Houzhao was stationed in Jixian County and gathered 30,000 troops. However, the Mongols suddenly launched an offensive. The emperor originally wanted to use Jixian County to attract the Mongolian army, and then mobilized nearby armies to attack the Mongols.  Encircle.

    It stands to reason that this strategy is indeed correct, but Zhu Houzhao apparently forgot that no matter how good a strategy is, it requires people with sufficient ability to execute it, so the city of Ji County was destroyed and the emperor disappeared.

    After such a big thing happened, Liu Chengfeng was in no mood, but he knew that the Mongols were really coming. Now he had to cheer up and stop the Mongols here. At the same time, he immediately sent someone to the capital to deliver a message and let the capital do what he wanted.  Be prepared.

    After midnight, a large number of Mongolian cavalry began to appear frequently nearby. In addition, many broken troops also appeared one after another. The new army stood still and continued to wait with bated breath.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­  ¡­

    Cabinet.

    An urgent report arrived early in the morning.

    Immediately afterwards, the three cabinet ministers were stunned.

    The whole border town collapsed, and the emperor was missing.

    Even Jiao Fang couldn't help but be moved by the news.

    Jiao Fang couldn't help but said: "What about His Highness the King of Chu? Where is His Highness the King of Chu?"

    "The memorial made it clear that at the moment we can only search for His Majesty's whereabouts and defend the capital on the other. However, His Royal Highness the King of Chu's army and horses are too close to the Mongols and they dare not move lightly. Once they retreat, they may be pursued, so they can only  The Jieqiao defense temporarily delayed the Mongols, and at the same time asked the capital to take precautions. Sigh How could things get so bad? Is this another civil fortress? I just hope that the emperor can be safe and sound, otherwise we will all be in trouble.  I'll be damned if I die."

    The one who spoke was Li Dongyang. Li Dongyang almost collapsed in his chair. He had been reluctantly maintaining the overall situation. Liu Jin came on the stage. Liu Jian and others resigned. He did not leave. He did not leave because of the bachelor Zhan Lianzhan, but because of the great bachelor Zhan Lianzhan.  But he knew that at this time, he couldn't leave.

    There are more and more people messing around in the Ming Dynasty, and there is always a need for a few people to do things. Li Dongyang plans toContinue to stay, continue to do things, and support this already festering situation.

    But now, the news coming today has shaken his last bit of confidence. Can the Ming Dynasty still hold on?  Now it seems that this is no different from Tumu Fort, but where is Yu Qian?  Even with Yu Qian, could Daming still be so lucky?

    Li Dongyang smiled bitterly.

    "It's better to go into the palace immediately to discuss with the Queen Mother. At this time, only the Queen Mother can come forward." Yang Tinghe stood up and sighed.

    The three of them entered the palace and told the truth to Queen Mother Zhang after arriving at Kunning Palace. It was different from what they expected. They thought that Queen Mother Zhang would at least cry even if she didn't faint from fright. Yang Tinghe even thought of many ways to comfort her.  Ci, but he underestimated Queen Mother Zhang.

    Queen Mother Zhang did pull her face down, and the fear on her face disappeared in a flash.

    She was worried, she was worried about her son and her family's country, but she didn't show it.

    In other words, she is the most painful. She lost her husband, and now she seems to have the fate of losing her son. The pain in her heart can be said to be unbearable, but she still cannot let outsiders see the pain in her heart.

    She knows that the situation has been completely corrupted. If she shows this, if she cannot stand up and give the officials, soldiers and civilians the expectations, everything will be over for the Ming Dynasty. How can the century-old dynasty be ruined in the hands of her son?

    Her eyes were like a pool of stagnant water, without any emotion. She pondered for a moment and asked, "Where is the King of Chu, Liu Chengfeng?"

    "Reporting to the Queen, the King of Chu garrisoned the boundary bridge. After hearing the news, he immediately sent someone to inform the court, and led a hundred thousand new troops to set up defenses at the boundary bridge, intending to delay the Mongols."

    "Really?" Empress Dowager Zhang sighed and said: "He did this to risk the capital to prepare, so now the time is limited, the capital's defense needs to be deployed, and no more mistakes can be made. Also, try your best to find out where the emperor is  If the news about the emperor falls into the hands of the Mongols" Empress Dowager Zhang paused here and said calmly: "Then let Liu Chengfeng negotiate with the Mongols as best they can. As long as the conditions are not harsh, I, the Ming Dynasty, can accept it.  Then it's okay to rescue the emperor. But if the Mongolian lion opens his mouth and wants the Ming Dynasty to use the country as a redemption, then the Mongolians should give up their delusions. Therefore, the top priority is to fight against the Mongols. As long as they can  Victory, there is no need to fear the Mongols."

    When she said these words, as a mother, her whole heart almost broke, but she still said these words. In fact, she knew that what these ministers wanted to hear most when they came to find her was this.  talk.

    The emperor is missing and probably fell into the hands of the Mongols. If the Mongols use the emperor as a threat, then what will the Ming army do to expel foreign enemies if they start a war with their hands and feet tied?  Therefore, Empress Dowager Zhang specially said these words to let everyone not have any scruples. If the Ming Dynasty loses its emperor, it can establish another one. However, once the capital is defeated by the Mongols, the country will not be protected and the country will be overturned.

    The three cabinet ministers said quickly: "The Queen Mother is wise."

    "Sage?" Empress Dowager Zhang smiled, a little bitterly, and said: "What kind of saint is Aijia? Aijia is not a qualified mother. She only hopes to be a qualified queen mother. The Aijia does not understand the war, and the Aijia does not  I will take care of it, please leave all these to the King of Chu. As for you, help him well, try your best to rescue your emperor, and try your best to drive away the Mongols, all go down!"

    "Mother, I have something to report." At this time, Yang Tinghe couldn't help but said: "Actually, if the emperor falls into the hands of the Mongols, it is not impossible to rescue him. Wei Chen heard that the Mongolian Khan has a close relationship with His Highness the King of Chu.  If the King of Chu comes forward, there may be room for recovery."

    Empress Dowager Zhang smiled and said: "Yang Qing doesn't understand women very well. There are two kinds of women in this world, one is willing to do anything for a man, and the other is hoping that all men in the world will go through fire and water for her.  So what if the Mongolian Khan you mentioned had an old relationship with the King of Chu? She would not be the first kind of woman. If she were that kind of woman, how could she lead an army to invade? This woman is extremely ambitious. First she united Mongolia, and then she  You are too impatient to fight against my Ming Dynasty without declaring it. Such people will not be bound by old feelings. You take it for granted. But you might as well give it a try. The next decree is given to Liu Chengfeng and let him choose the opportunity to act.  It's He, the Yi family gives him full power, he can make his own decision."

    Yang Tinghe smiled bitterly: "The Queen Mother is wise."

    Empress Dowager Zhang pursed her lips, her eyes were empty, and she sighed: "There is another thing. All Liu Jin's accomplices and relatives are all taken down by Yousi. This Liu Jin is the cause of trouble. He is the one who harmed the emperor. There is nothing the Ai family can do.  The only way to avenge the emperor is to execute these people. Let all these people be executed!"

    After she finished speaking, she felt that she would not stay any longer.?Here, tears were about to burst out of her eyes, so she stood up. Her figure was already a little rickety. She had too many warm memories in the first half of her life, but who could have imagined that the second half of her life would be so miserable.  , one bad news after another made her breathless and unable to cry.

    ?¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­
