There are indeed traces of the Tatars and the Oirats. Doyanwei was the pioneer and chased hundreds of miles along the way, but the more he pursued, the more he felt strange it was.

Because this is not the majority of the Oirat and the Tatars.

Zhu Di even thought that this was very likely to be the Oirats' trick to lure the enemy, so he deliberately took out a small number of troops and constantly lured the Ming army into depth. After a long battle, he chose to deal with it with caution without hesitation.

The army was walking and stopping towards the depths of the desert like this. The weather became colder and colder, and the long supply line began to become more difficult.

But... Zhu Di felt something was wrong again.

Although he knew that fighting in the desert was easy, the real difficulty was to find the enemy. In this vast desert, not to mention hiding 100,000 troops, even 200,000 and 300,000 were easy.

But... everything was beyond Zhu Di's expectations, and the decisive battle that he originally thought was now in vain.

In the warm tent, Zhu Di felt something was wrong. He began to become anxious and hesitate, and finally asked someone to take out the map.

Shanhaiguan, Jixian...

A burst of chill appeared on Zhu Di's back ridge.

These two places are hundreds of miles apart from the location where Zhu Di sent troops, but...

Very likely, very likely.

If you are fooled, you may be fooled.

It’s not that Zhu Di has been fooled. In fact, as an excellent military general, being fooled and deceived by others is almost commonplace, but this time... Zhu Di feels that he has been fooled.

If nothing unexpected happens, in fact, at the beginning, this was a premeditated action. First, the Oirat and the Tatars colluded with each other, but pretended to be a decisive battle with Sa Sarah, attracting the main force of the Ming army.

In fact, for Zhu Di, it was not very meaningful to the Oirat and the Tatars to form a traitor or to fight against each other, because even if these people joined forces and use Zhu Di's methods to deal with them severely, they could still deal with Sa.

Therefore, Zhu Di's suspicion was that the Oirat and the Tatars used tricks, pretending to be internal strife, and attracted the Ming army to come to fight against Sasa.

But he never expected that there was a fraud in this fraud. This was a chain of tricks. They attracted the main force of the Ming army here. They wanted to take an unprecedented adventure. That is, they took a detour to Shanhaiguan, attacked Shanhaiguan and Jixian, and finally took Beiping directly, cutting off the Ming army's retreat.

As for this small remnant of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, it should be to lure the Ming army into the desert and give them bait to buy time. Now, the Ming army has penetrated the desert for thousands of miles. The Oirat and the Tatars are afraid that they have already...

Many people always think that those people in the desert advocate force, so they generally have low IQs, but Zhu Di deeply understands that these people are not only brave, but also extremely cunning. They are like hungry wolves, and once they set their sights on prey, they will use any means. The so-called barbarians' low IQs are actually just self-comforts from scholars. Scholars can figure out thirty-six strategies at home, but these people in the desert have been fighting for years, and stupid people have long become slaves to the winners, or have become dead bones on the snowfield. Only the smartest and bravest people can survive.

"Come on, I'll send orders to Shanhaiguan... I'll send orders to the Liaodong Metropolitan Division to immediately shrink its troops and strictly guard Shanhaiguan. All invading enemies must be repelled, and even a fly cannot enter the pass... I'll send orders... Doyan Guard quickly returns to defense, and the rear army is changed to the front army, and retreat!"

Thinking of this careful plan, Zhu Di's forehead was already sweating profusely.

He knew very well that the Oirat and the Tatars were taking risks, because the desert was the best place for them to hunt. Once they decided to enter the pass, their greatest advantage would become a disadvantage, and once they entered, they would lose their battles and would be in danger of being wiped out.

But he also knew very well that these vicious thugs dared to take any kind of risk, because... these people had nothing to do, and if they took over Peking, they would enter the granary like refugees...

Under this huge temptation, for those who are hungry and cold, nothing is impossible to do, no risks, and dare not take it.

However... Zhu Di could not take this risk. Once there was any loss in Peking, the food supply of hundreds of thousands of Ming troops would be cut off. Once the tired Ming army returned to the pass, they would first suffer a head-on blow. More importantly, as the Northern Zhili and the Ming Dynasty's accompanying capital, if there was any loss, then... everything would be over.

Defeat...shamed...the wealth accumulated by the treasury over the years, the lives of hundreds of thousands of troops, and the safety of millions of people.

Since the robber has entered the house, even if he can drive them out in the end, this family is afraid that it will no longer be a family, his family...

Zhu Di's chest was undulating, his breathing began to worsen. The bad premonition was deeply surrounded by his heart, and he began to become anxious.

The generals seemed to be immersed in the joy of beating the dogs in the water. In their opinion, the Oirat and the Tatars should be luring the enemy into depth. As long as they advance a little more and walk a few hundred miles, the moment of the decisive battle will be coming.

The sudden order to withdraw the troops was unexpected by everyone…………………………

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Shanhaiguan...

The pass has been broken.

The Shanhai Pass garrison would never have expected that at this time, they would encounter a surprise attack of enemy troops as dense as the ocean. The few military horses were quickly seized under the attack of the dense Oirat and Tatars.

The door is closed and the hole is opened.

Corpse are everywhere.

The black and humble cavalry vented into the pass like a flood that opened the gate.

The garrison was tied to the flagpole on the city tower, and he closed his eyes and burst into tears.

It's over!

Once the pass was broken, he knew it was over, everyone was over, the country, millions of lives, and everything created by decades of hard work...

"The Khan asked you if you surrender, if you are willing to surrender..."

Pooh……

Sipped out of saliva.

The guards were afraid of death and were so scared that they even flowed out when they were taken.

The city tower was very cold, and he was trembling, not sure whether it was because of the north wind or the fear deep in his heart.

He wanted to live, he had his wife and children, his parents, he had a high position, and had a future, and many things worth his nostalgia.

But he spitted on the face of the Han people who were lobbyists for the Tatars and the Oirats.

He could only die. Although he was so afraid, he still chose a desperate path.

"I am the general who has received the kindness of the country in the world, so how can he be with the barbarians? If you want to kill, you can kill them, and if you want to cut them, you can cut them."

While saying these passionate words, he silently recited the names of many people in his heart: "Dad, mother, Gui'er, Cheng'er..."

Whether his tears were blown by the wind and snow, or he couldn't help but shed tears. The tears fell along the flesh on his face. They were first warm, then turned into ice water, and finally frozen on his clothes.

"Come on, give me some fun!"

Several Tatars muttered and had already drawn their swords.

The tip of the knife was very sharp and pierced into his stomach.

They did not choose their chest, but their stomachs, pulled out his intestines, and the guards roared in pain...

A joking grin came from beside him...

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Jixian.

Just one day later, the shouts and killings were already ringing. As the last barrier to Peking, although I had learned about Shanhaiguan, the hasty defense still could not withstand the scattered robbers like a scattered robber.

County government office.

It's already cold here.

Many of the officers were gone, and even the county magistrate who had begun to insist on sticking to the end was suddenly gone.

Many people foolishly opened the southern city gate and tried to escape to Tianjin Wei, but this gave the Tatars and the Oirats the opportunity to take advantage of it. Once they left the city, the people with their legs and families would never be able to get along with the horses on the grassland, and the killing had begun...

It's in this empty county government.

County Magistrate Zhu Hai looked at his friend Wenbin who was accompanying him.

Wenbin looked at this Dongweng with his pen and ink.

Zhu Hai's face turned ashen, saying word by word: "My magistrate of Ji County reported: On the fourth day of the twelfth lunar month of the fourth year of Yongle, the Yuan gang besieged the city and attacked the city very urgently... Ji County has been lost, how dare I survive in the world, and the responsibility of defending the land is to be a small body..."

After finishing a memorial, Zhu Hai carefully read it, carefully blew the ink marks drying it, like a treasure, and did not ask anyone to send it out, because at this time, no one could send it out. He put the memorial behind the plaque in the lobby of the county government, then looked at his fellow curtain friend and smiled bitterly: "Brother Wensong, I hired you, I originally hoped to be with you... Alas... I never thought that I had misled you."

"Actually, I must die for the responsibility of defending the land. If Brother Wen Song has a chance..."

In this scene, my friend said with gaze: "My lord, how can students live alone? Today, Ji County will lose its life, and there will be no peace in this land north of the Yangtze River, and the lives will be devastated... If the adults do not abandon it, will the students and the adults die together? "

"Okay." Zhu Hai did not persuade him anymore and walked directly to the side room next to him. The rope on the beam was tied and the stool was under the rope. Zhu Hai smiled calmly and said, "Today, I will be the first person to die. I hope... it is also the last one..."
