Chapter 90 The Battle of Beijing

Zhu Di only felt that the whole person was not good, and he had even fallen into great self-doubt: I, Zhu Di, not only rebelled in the future, but also made a big joke that 50 can't beat [-], why do I want to fight in northern Xinjiang? ?What else are you talking about sealing wolves to live in Xu?It would be better to be beaten to death by my father with boots today!

50 beats [-]!He wanted to beat himself to death!

It's still Zhu Su who can't stand it anymore. Although Old Zhu only hit the fourth brother's ass, but if he beats too much, the fourth child may not be able to get out of bed for several months.So he persuaded him: "Father, just a little bit of twitching is enough. It's not the fourth brother who did it. When you said that the fourth brother went to the northern border by himself, didn't you still praise him for what he did?"

"Hmph! What's the use of doing a good job! His great-grandson called the door like that, and all the good times before have been defeated!" Old Zhu still felt aggrieved, but also stopped.Zhu Di trembled all over, and suddenly felt that the three souls and seven souls had returned to his body, and asked hurriedly, "What? Is it not me who can beat 50 with [-]?"

"Fifth brother, tell fourth brother what's going on?"

"Didn't I tell you that you were feared by Emperor Jianwen because you had a lot of military exploits in guarding northern Xinjiang. How could you do such a stupid thing?" Zhu Su shook his head and laughed.Seeing that the depression in Lao Zhu's chest has been released, he feels relieved.Then he turned his head and told Zhu Di again about the transformation of the Tumubao.

"What?" Zhu Di didn't care that the pain in his buttocks hadn't subsided, and he jumped up. "50 can beat [-], and you still knock on the door for the tartars? There are such brazen people in the world?" Zhu Laosi really wanted to slap his great-grandson to death at this moment. He is also impatient, just like Lao Zhu. Angry face is now flushed red.

But Lao Zhu can vent on his son, but his son has not been seen yet!I can only think angrily in my heart, I will definitely not have a son in this life!
Anyway, there are big brothers and they inherit the ancestral temple and the country, and my Zhu Di's descendants are such bastards, why are they born!

Do you want to ruin my famous name as Lang Juxu?
"Fifth, just keep talking." Old Zhu said after he came back. "The thief helped the tartar call the door switch, what happened after that?"

"Xuanfu and Datong are both border gates. If the Tartars took them without a single soldier, wouldn't that be an open door to arrest robbers? I'm afraid the Central Plains will be destroyed in an instant!" Zhu Di deserves to be familiar with military books since he was a child. The seriousness of the problem can be seen at a glance.At this time, he also said anxiously: "Old Wu, tell me quickly, what happened after that?"

"Don't worry. Although in Zhu Qizhen's heart, the lives of tens of thousands of Ming soldiers and common people are not as good as his own life to live a moment longer."

"However, Xuanfu guard Luo Hengxin, Datong guard Guo Deng and other guards are clear-headed and put the country and the country first. They would rather bear the heavy responsibility of killing the emperor than open the door."

"Good!" Lao Zhu praised. "The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the toughness knows the loyal minister! This party is my loyal minister and good general of Ming Dynasty!"

"The Ming dynasty has such a spineless emperor, we would rather let him be hacked to pieces by the enemy, smashed to pieces!"

"The one who saves is still buried in the imperial mausoleum, so that we will see him add trouble after we die, bah!"

In order to express his inner dissatisfaction, Lao Zhu even spat out a smear without the image of an emperor.

"That's right! An Neng deserves to be a descendant of my Zhu family with such soft bones?" Zhu Di also jumped and cursed. "If we had spirits in the sky at that time, we would have lifted the coffin and taken in this bastard descendant!"

Old Zhu gave Zhu Di a dissatisfied look, as if he blamed him for stealing his words.

"Ahem." Zhu Su interrupted the father and son and continued to speak harshly. Seeing that their attention had returned to him, he continued: "After the failure of Grand Master Wala's plan to hold Zhu Qizhen to break through the Daming pass, Then they regrouped the army and invaded Beiping in October."

"Wait, the capital of Ming Dynasty is not Yingtian..." Zhu Di interrupted suspiciously. Old Zhu already knew about the relocation of the capital of Ming Dynasty. He thought he interrupted Zhu Su, so he gave him a direct look.After being glared at by Lao Zhu, Zhu Di could only swallow the words embarrassingly, and continued to listen with bated breath.

"...First of all, they invaded aggressively. At this time, all the elites of the Ming Dynasty were buried in the Tumu Fort by Zhu Qizhen. At this time, the troops in Beiping are extremely empty."

"Even the generals, there are a lot of vacancies. The whole capital is almost paralyzed."

"This..." Just listening, Lao Zhu felt that the sweat on his forehead was about to drop.The emperor was hunting in the north, the imperial capital was empty, and soldiers were approaching the city... This was even more desperate than the situation in Jingkang in the Northern Song Dynasty!
At least at that time in the Northern Song Dynasty, there were actually many soldiers in the city who could fight!

"At this time, the first loyal minister appeared in Ming Dynasty who was able to turn the tide and was capable of writing and martial arts." Zhu Su's voice became serious unconsciously.

"A loyal minister who tried his best to turn the tide?" Old Zhu's face also turned serious when he heard this. "This situation can still help protect the country? Who is this person?"

"This person's name is Yu Qian, and he was Minister of War of the Ming Dynasty at that time."

"At that time, even the people in the city thought that the Ming Dynasty was over. At least half of the country would be lost. There were countless wealthy people in the city who moved their families to the south. Most of the ministers and ministers in the court persuaded the younger brother of Zhu Qizhen, who was in charge of the country at the time, to Fortunately, Zhu Qiyun moved the capital to the south..."

"Traitor!" Old Zhu slapped his thigh. "If this is the case, isn't it equivalent to handing over half of the country to the Tartars?"

"That's right!" Zhu Di was also indignant.

"At this time, it was Yu Qian who stood up and tried his best to overcome all opinions." Zhu Su said.

"He first strongly supported Zhu Qiyu's succession, so that Zhu Qizhen in the hands of the Wala people lost its effect."

"Zhu Qiyu took the throne on September [-]th. He respected Zhu Qizhen as the Supreme Emperor and changed his name to Jingtai. He first coerced Ming Yingzong to blackmail the Ming court but failed, so he led an army to invade Beiping in October."

"On October [-]th, the Oala army arrived at the foot of the city of Beiping, lined up outside Xizhimen, and placed Ming Yingzong in an empty room outside Deshengmen. The army was defeated. Then he moved to Xizhimen to attack the Ming army, but was also repelled by the Ming army."

"Unwilling to fail, the Oirat army organized an attack at Zhangyimen. The Ming army pretended to be defeated. The Oirat army chased to Tucheng, but was stopped by the Ming army musketeers lurking in the dwellings. There were countless casualties and they were unable to advance. In addition to the cold weather, the capital The defenders on the periphery fought hard to resist, and it was not until November [-]th that the Oirat army withdrew from outside the Great Wall, and the capital was finally lifted."

"In this battle, Yu Qian personally risked arrows and stones. He did not avoid the loss of his bow and went to the city to arrange the city defenses. With him in charge, the army and people in the capital will be able to repel the Oirat attack."

"The battle to defend the capital, led and organized by Yu Qian and the officials of the main combat faction, won the victory and shattered the Oirat Army's ambition to capture Beiping. It can be said that it was because of Yu Qian that the Ming Dynasty finally turned the corner!"
