"The Emperor Fengtian Chengyun, and the imperial edict said: The left governor, General Longhu, and the right assistant minister of the Ministry of War, the general of Fujian general Zhilong, had his weapon and was wise and made a wise plan. He personally led Xiong Jue, squeezing flags and beheaded generals, and the clear district of Xia, and his loyalty and filial piety were defeated... Now he was named Annanbo and was given an imperial certificate..."

Outside the city of Tianjin, on the bank of the canal, under the gaze of civil and military officials such as Feng Yuanyang, the governor of Tianjin, Zheng Zhilong was happy to be the Earl, and was specially promoted to the Guanglu Dafu, and was appointed as the Prince Shaobao and the Right Pillion State.

It's simply a step to reach the peak of life.

Because the title of the Ming Dynasty is rare, let alone iron certificates, this is the hereditary title, not the free title. Now among the generals of the title of the Bo, he is the only one, and Emperor Chongzhen is really a big deal.

I'm afraid it's really urgent.

Many letters were issued for this imperial edict, but not to mention Wu Sangui and Liu Zeqing had not arrived, even Tang Tong, the general of Ji Town who was so close to him, had not even arrived.

Seeing that Li Zicheng arrived at Xuanfu, how could Emperor Chongzhen not panic?

The capital was in chaos. Feng Yuanyang, the governor of Tianjin, asked his son to meet Chongzhen because he had been ordered to prepare 200 sea boats, but now he has already collected them. If Emperor Chongzhen immediately escaped from the capital and arrived in Tianjin, it would be only 200 miles away. How could it be too late?

There are still thousands of soldiers in Tianjin. Although they are all unbearable to fight, they are also some of them.

The sea ice is melting again. Perhaps when Emperor Chongzhen came to Tianjin, the sea ice will be gone. Wouldn't it be possible to escape from the sea?

As a result, Feng Kaizhang arrived in the capital for two days and asked to see Emperor Chongzhen. The news came back to Tianjin, and Feng Yuanyang was deeply disappointed.

Because, the Guanning Army, which had high hopes for Zhugongbao in the capital, did not guarantee any hope at all.

"Wu Sangui has received the emperor's favor for a long time, and tens of thousands of Guanning troops can only be accomplished by the court. In addition, his father and the Wu family are all in the capital. Can Wu Sangui really dare to hold his troops and wait and see?"

Zheng Zhilong seemed to say ignorantly.

His current performance is very consistent with his own positioning and the current situation, because the Ming Dynasty is still floating in the city of Xuanfu. After Xuanfu, there are dangerous passes such as Juyongguan, so it is not easy for the civilian army to rush to the city of Yanjing.

Feng Yuanyang was less than 60 years old. In the later world, this was the golden age of a politician. In fact, this sentence makes the same sense as it is now. In his fifties, he is experienced, sharp-eyed, and an experienced person.

He looked at Zheng Zhilong (acting skills upgraded), and sighed: "Shishou Zheng is loyal and sincere to the country. I am deeply impressed. It's a pity that there are not many people like the Grand Marshal in this world."

"I wonder if the general has known that on the 12th of last month, His Majesty summoned the old man Wu Xiang to the opposite side. Did he say what he said?"

Zheng Zhilong continued to be stunned, "I would like to hear the details." But in fact, how could he not know? Wu Xiang's lion mouth had been spread all over the capital, and Zheng Zhilong was shocked.

A million taels of silver, did he think it was a million coins?

But Wu Xiang knew that Emperor Chongzhen was so poor that he spoke up, but he said a lot, "I have more than 30,000 soldiers, but only 3,000 people can use them. These 3,000 people are not soldiers, but they are the sons of my ministers and brothers. Since I received the favor of the country, I have eaten rough scoops, and 3,000 people have fine wine and fat sheep; I have clothed brown, and 3,000 people have silk silk, so I can get the power of death."

Chongzhen asked: "How much does it take to pay?"

"million!"

Chongzhen was startled and asked in surprise: "That is, about 30,000 people, why do you need more salary?"

"A million people are just a little bit. Three thousand people outside have hundreds of acres of farmland. Where can I plant the farms? The quota is less than fourteen months, what method should I do to make up for? There are still six million creatures outside the pass, so I am not counting it. Now I will drive them to enter the pass together, so what way should I use to plant them? To put this into this, a million taels may not be enough to help, so why dare I speak out!"

...

"The country is in a difficult situation, and the court's taxes are not fully utilized. How much gold and silver is there in the treasury? Wu Xiang is a man who is doing this at this critical moment. I wish I could kill him to relieve the hatred in my heart."

Feng Yuanyang had a deep conversation. He had just met Zheng Zhilong and said this, which shows that he hated the Wu family and son to the extreme.

Zheng Zhilong was far away in Fujian and could arrive in Tianjin at this time. Compared with Wu Sangui, Liu Zeqing and others, who is loyal and treacherous, it is obvious at a glance. Feng Yuanyang now has a very good impression of Zheng Zhilong.

And more importantly, the appearance of Zheng Zhilong's army also gave him great confidence.

Although there were only tens of thousands of people in the Zheng army, you should know that it is now the sixth day of the March 19th, and the ice on the sea has melted. The Zheng army's navy can reach Tianjin in the blink of an eye, and that is another large number of reinforcements.

Thinking about the combat effectiveness of the Zheng army, thinking that Zheng Zhilong could win the reputation of defeating the Tartars repeatedly, and they would guard Yanjing City, how could Li Zicheng easily succeed? No matter how bad it is, Zheng Zhilong could escape with the emperor, right? Feng Yuanyang felt that he had been holding his heart suddenly let go.

But he didn't know that Emperor Chongzhen had reached the point of helplessness at this time.

Because Xuanfu has been surrendered.

Just as his edict to Zheng Zhilong, Wu Sangui, Huang Degong, Liu Liangzuo, Zuo Liangyu, Liu Zeqing and others left Yanjing City, bad news came from Xuanfu.

Li Zicheng personally raised the army to come from the west, and the governor Zhu Zhifeng gathered civil and military officers on the city tower to set up a high emperor. He wanted to defend the city with blood and offered a reward to inspire the army. However, the hearts of the army were dispersed, Du Xun, the chief officer of the army, and Wang Chengyun, had already sent someone to submit a letter of surrender to Li Zicheng.

Zhu Zhifeng cursed in anger and pointed at the military supervisor and said, "Du Xun, you have always trusted by the emperor. Today, you sent you to the army, but you arrived at Xuanfu and secretly met the thief Li. What's the face to see Your Majesty again!"

If possible, Zhu Zhifeng Zhi asked someone to cut off Du Xun and Wang Chengyun's dog heads, but who will listen to his orders in the huge Xuanfu?

When Li Zicheng arrived, Zhu Zhifeng climbed the city wall and ordered the cannon to be fired. The left and right soldiers were silent, and no one came forward. So Zhifeng lit the fire and set the cannon himself, and was pulled by the left and right. The line hole of the cannon had been nailed to death. What could Zhu Zhifeng? He sighed and said, "I didn't expect that people's hearts would come to this point." Seeing that the situation was over, he hanged himself for his death after writing his suicide note.

For the civil and military officials in Yanjing City, it is not an exaggeration to say that this news is a five-thunderbolt thunder.

Xuanfu was only 300 miles away from the capital, just a day to reach. The emergency documents came, and the court was panicked. Emperor Chongzhen summoned civil and military ministers, officials from all over the country, and asked about the "suggestions for war and defense". The ministers were speechless. Chongzhen sighed and said angrily: "I am not the king of the country that was destroyed, but all the ministers of the country that was destroyed!" After that, he stood up and left his seat with hatred.

In despair, he issued an edict to blame himself again.

"I will fight every year, and I will send more and more people to peace. I will be punished by my crime! Corrupt officials took advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and scattered whip, and I will suffer every day. I am in the nine levels and cannot understand it. My crime! I will be arrogant and do not be willing to use my life to burn, kill, and plunder, and treat you as enemies. I am not a person. I will be a crime! As a result, the enemy's forces are rushing and threatening to follow the crowd, like Yu Chu, Qin and Jin, and the people are enduring the resentment and swallowing their voices, and have no complaints! I have thought that my ancestors have been recuperating for nearly three hundred years, and have been suffering from tragic poisons. It is so extreme that I am really hurt like burning!"
