The Donglu broke through the wall and entered the pass again!

It took only one day to break the walls on September 26th to the news that it reached the capital. Because of the lesson of the Eastern Captains destroying the capital at the beginning of the year, burning, killing, robbing and robbing everywhere, as soon as the news came out, the people from dozens of miles away from the capital were avoided in the city.

Although the Donglu then advanced south from Tongzhou and now even killed the Huai River, the capital was still on high alert.

On the night of the 12th lunar month of the 12th year of Chongzhen, I met the second gate. The streets in the capital were already quiet. When the cold wind in early winter blew, it only seemed particularly gloomy and desolate. At the important street entrances, soldiers stood, checking the pedestrians who occasionally passed by. Outside the gates of every household, red silk lanterns were hung with dim lights and swaying under the eaves. Under the faint light, you can see the walls of each street entrance with large quiet street notices. In the narrow and long streets and alleys, there are often merchants carrying small lanterns, beating broken gongs or gongs. The shrunk shadows appeared and disappeared into the darkness. The slow, listless gongs or gongs gradually faded away in the wind.

Since Chongzhen ascended the top of the world, Jiannu has entered the border five times in the past twelve years, and this has even reached the capital for the fourth time. Even at the beginning of the year, Jiannu had just entered the border, so why did he come so quickly? At this time, fire outside the city was soaring into the sky, and there were soldiers and horses patrolling in the city, and night walks were prohibited. Whether in the deep courtyard or in the brick and tiled houses of civilians, there were lamenting sounds everywhere.

What's wrong with the world?

Why did the Eastern Captain once again enter the Great Wall and threaten the capital?

Fortunately, the capital city has high walls, otherwise...what if the Donglu captured it?

Worry, everyone is worried.

But for those victims and refugees who fled into the capital, there was a little more torment. In the past two months, more than 100,000 people have escaped from all over the country, and there is no place to shelter them. Many people slept under the eaves on both sides of the street, squeezing into a pile of them for fear of freezing to death. They were trembling in the biting cold wind, moaning, complaining, and lamenting. Tonight, the northeast wind was blowing, and the weather was so cold. I don’t know how many people would be frozen to death that night...

When he entered the night, Chongzhen in the imperial city was also in a particularly heavy mood. Although he was still a young man less than 28 years old, there were already several deep crow's feet in the corner of his eyes, and his eye sockets were a little dark. He had been overworking for a long time, coupled with his melancholy mood, which made his face look pale and haggard.

He didn't sleep well for several nights. Today he went to court again on Wugu. After a long time of fatigue, he kept reviewing documents in the Qianqing Palace in the afternoon. When his grandfather and brother were emperors, he did not attend court all year round, did not read the memorials of the ministers, and handed over all major national affairs to the eunuchs of his confidants to deal with. When he inherited the throne, he tried to correct this bad habits and did everything himself, but he did nothing. The situation in the world was still difficult, and it was a day of chaos.

Today, he had not left the imperial case for the whole afternoon.

What was the urgent news of the military piled up on his imperial case?

It was the Donglu who once again invaded the capital.

The Qing soldiers broke through the wall and entered the pass from September 26, threatening the capital, and then went from Liangxiang to Zhuozhou, and went deeper in multiple ways: one from Laishui to Yizhou, one from Xincheng to Xiongxian, and one from Dingxing to Ansu, and there was a siege to Baoding.

After receiving this news, Chongzhen was naturally shocked. Before that, Shandong had reported that the Donglu might have entered the pass, but at that time, he chose to ignore it. However, the Donglu really came. Not only did he come, but now he even fought all the way to Nanzhili.

"How could they go deeper alone? Are they not afraid of the demolition of troops and horses to damage the Ming Dynasty?"

Chongzhen, who was full of sorrow, said to himself in his heart. But he knew the answer himself, but this answer was something he didn't want to face, or even think about. Thinking of the "officials are free of charge" written by Donglu on the sign, he blushed at the official army. When did the Ming Dynasty's official army get to this point!

"Didn't they just leave at the beginning of the year? Why did they come and leave at the right time?"

Thinking of the Eastern Barbarians breaking the wall and entering the pass again, they were not going to hold an armed demonstration in the Ming Dynasty. Wherever the Eastern Barbarians go, all the people were killed and the places were decayed and there was no hope of life. Thinking of the countless people being killed or captured, Chongzhen became extremely upset.

"How good is the enemy soldiers entering the heartland of the Central Plains like this, as if they were entering a state of no one!"

The upset Chongzhen finally threw the pen in his hand to the ground, then walked around the palace, sighing from time to time.

"Oh, why is this happening? Could it be that from then on, the Donglu have regarded the Ming Dynasty as a hunting ground and came here to hunt every year? Yuan Chonghuan, it is really worth damn if he kills important officials of my indiscriminately!"

Once again, Chongzhen thought of Yuan Chonghuan and said in his heart that he pushed all his resentment on him. If he did not kill Mao Wenlong, there would be no ties and no more carelessness. How could Jiannu, who had no backs, dared to break the wall and enter the pass at will! How could millions of people in the capital be killed by the East?

But after all, these people have been dead for many years. No matter how much they complain, what is the point?

The most important thing now is to drive out the Donglu who had crossed the Huaihe River immediately. They must not let them break Zhongdu. However, when Zhongdu City was strong, he breathed a sigh of relief.

It probably won't be able to beat Zhongdu!

"There are more than 100,000 people in it, so it should be foolproof! Shi Kefa is also considered a cadre..."

Thinking of the emergency military information sent by Shi Kefaxin, Chongzhen couldn't help but worry.

"There must be no change there!"

After unfolding Shi Kefa's secret commentary, Chongzhen's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he even said angrily.

"Zhu Ciying, Zhu Ciying, you are so domineering, you actually kill officials and seize the army. If you let me do this, how can you tolerate you!"

Shi Kefa's secret memorials revealed many domineering things since the Defan Crown Prince Zhu Ciying led his troops south. From killing the magistrate to extort money and food, to killing generals to seize the official army for their own use, all kinds of actions were simply "the unjust intention of being unofficial."

"Just tell me, have I really misunderstood the royal family?"

Chongzhen's face looked extremely ugly. How could he not be angry when he thought that Zhu Ciying had "extraordinary appointment" that he was so ambition?

In fact, he was also very concerned about Prince De's every move since he went south. He had been waiting for the opportunity and waiting for the opportunity to punish him.

Now, the reasons should be sufficient!

"Zhu Ciying, you disappointed me so much. Do you really think that the Ming Dynasty has no national laws?"

Chongzhen, who was angry, directly ordered the inner officials.

"Come all the cabinet ministers over, I want them to see what this so-called wise man of the royal family looks like!"
