In the land of Hebei, wolf smoke rolled, and smoke and dust rose into the sky.

After the Wu Yue army landed in Dagu, they burned, killed and looted all the way, destroyed the flag-man manor, slaughtered the flag-men, coated the clothes, and advanced towards Beijing.

The land of Hebei was originally the base camp of the bannermen, but Fulin retreated westward and took away most of the bannermen, leaving the power of the Hebei bannermen empty.

Ajige's old nest was in Xuzhou. After arriving in Beijing, he sent away another 60,000 elite troops to attack Shanxi. The troops left in Hebei had to guard Shanhaiguan, Beijing, and various prefectures and counties. The troops were flattened and the troops were stretched.

In the banners and villages in various places, the people who stayed behind are all the old and weak, and the slaves are also coated with clothes, which is simply vulnerable.

Tongzhou, the end of the Grand Canal of Beijing and Hangzhou.

The goods from the south are transported along the canal to Tongzhou and then transferred to Beijing.

In the Ming and Qing dynasties, a large number of warehouses were built here to store grain and supplies.

When Watami attacked Beijing and Yu Qian presided over the Beijing defense war, the Tongzhou granary stockpiled 200,000 stones of grain.

At this time, Tongzhou also reserved a large amount of grain and military funds. Among them, those who Fulin had not had time to transport them away, and those who Ajige occupied Beijing and ordered his subordinates to transport military funds from Xuzhou's old nest.

After the war, with Fulin taking away more than 100,000 Manchus with strong consumption capacity, almost half of the wealthy class in Beijing was empty, resulting in a backlog of goods and a bleak business in Tongzhou.

At this time, outside Tongzhou City, in the shops and warehouse areas along both sides of the Grand Canal, coolies, men and merchants were bored.

The Qing army inspector who was inspecting the nearby areas was also sitting at the table, smoking cigarettes with several subordinates.

"Boss, do you think this time, is it Shunzhi who can win or Chongwu who can win?" A Qing army took a beautiful breath of cigarettes and spitted the cigarette into the air.

These cigarettes are all produced by Huaxing Cigarette Company in the south. They entered the north through smuggling channels and were very popular among the Qing soldiers.

However, this pack of cigarettes is not cheap, and it is usually impossible to smoke even if the boss is the one who can smoke. The main reason is that they are inspectors who charge passers-by taxes. In order to pay less taxes, some merchants gave them a lot of cigarettes.

The inspector was a veteran in his forties. He let out a breath of smoke, squinted his eyes and looked at the dissipating smoke, and said indifferently: "For more than ten years, from Master Chongzhen to Master Shunzhi, and then Master Chongwu, who came up, it did not affect our meals. What do you want to do so much!"

When the Qing soldiers heard the words, they couldn't help but say, "The leader is still looking thoroughly! However, the world is so chaotic and always unstable. When will it be the end!"

The old inspector exhaled a sip of cigarette and his eyes were deep. At this moment, a sudden scream came from the street. Immediately afterwards, the crowd ran north in horror. The shops and restaurants along the street were closing, carrying loads and pedals, running desperately, and even if the things fell to the ground, they had no time to pay attention.

In the north direction of Tongzhou City, alarm bells rang, and figures running around in panic and entering the city in panic.

The inspector and the Qing army beside him stood up quickly and saw the people around him staring at the southeast. He saw a few thick smoke rising from the distance, and he was shocked.

"What's going on? How could the enemy attack be encountered in the important areas of the capital!" The inspector was stunned.

He hadn't seen this scene for more than ten years. The last time he saw it was in the fifteenth year of Chongzhen. That year, the Qing army broke through the pass and entered Hebei, and stayed in Zhili and Shandong for more than half a year.

The inspector couldn't help but shivered, and the rolling black smoke changed his memory.

During the Chongzhen period, he invaded six times. Except for one who went to Xuanhua and Datong, he had to pass through Hebei every time. Wherever the Qing army passed, blood would definitely flow into a river, and countless families were destroyed.

The old parents and aunts who inspected the inspection all died when the Qing army invaded.

"Run!" Although I don't know where the enemy army came from, the inspector roared in horror and ran towards Tongzhou.

At this time, thick smoke was getting closer and closer. The sky from Xianghe to Wuqing, Dong'an, and dozens of miles southeast of Tongzhou was filled with thick smoke.

The old inspector ran away and followed the crowds and ran to the walls of Tongzhou. The city gate was closed. The Qing army on the front of the city turned a deaf ear to the crowds gathered outside the city, for fear that scouts would take the opportunity to deceive the city.

At this time, the crowd exclaimed again, and heard the rumbling sound of cannons behind him, and immediately dispersed, bypassing Tongzhou and running towards Beijing.

The old inspectors were mixed in the crowd, and fleeing figures were everywhere on the road. Behind them, more and more smoke pillars soared into the sky and soared straight into the sky.

Beijing, Forbidden City.

Ajige, who had just finished the throne ceremony, was sleeping soundly in the bedroom.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the hall. Several eunuchs, you should retreat from me, and I should retreat from you, and you would not dare to enter the hall to wake up Ajige.

Although Ajige was not good at killing people in his dream, he had a bad temper and woke him up, but the consequences were still very serious. At the least, he was beaten up and killed directly at worst. It was not impossible.

Fan Wencheng was furious when he saw this, "Military information is urgent and it will be delayed by military opportunities. Who can afford it?"

Seeing the Grand Secretary getting angry, one of the eunuchs could only grit their teeth and enter the bedroom. Outside the curtain, he whispered: "Long live the emperor, there is an emergency military situation!"

The eunuch shouted, but there was no reaction. He couldn't help but look back at Fan Wencheng and the other eunuchs. Fan Wencheng suddenly showed anger. Seeing this, the eunuch could only change a few more times.

Azig was suddenly awakened and said angrily: "What's the matter? Who's broken his mouth?"

The eunuch's voice was not loud, and Ajige did not hear it clearly. When Fan Wencheng heard Ajige wake up, he didn't care much, so he quickly rushed into the hall and knelt down and reported urgently: "Master, something is wrong, is Zhao Zamao coming?"

Azige was shocked when he heard this, and sat up from the bed, stunned for a while, and came to his senses, "What did you say?"

Fan Wencheng hurriedly said: "Emperor, urgent military information, Zhao Zamao is about to fight to Beijing!"

As soon as Fan Wencheng finished speaking, he saw a figure jumping out of the bedroom quickly, lifted him up, and shouted straight, "How is Zhao Zamao Bing coming to Beijing?"

Zhao Zamao had just withdrawn from Shanhaiguan, how could he suddenly come to Beijing? Besides, He Luo, who will guard Shanhaiguan, did not receive any movement, could Zhao Zamao fly over?

Fan Wencheng hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, Zhao Zamao is really here. He raided Dagukou and came from the sea. How dare the servant speak nonsense!"

Upon hearing this, Ajige let go of Fan Wencheng, his face became ferocious, and he roared angrily: "What a Zhao Zamao, I just as soon as I ascended the throne, you are at the city. It's simply outrageous!"
