If you have money, live a life of wealth; if you don’t have money, live a life of no money.
You used to have money, but now you have no money and you can't live your life. That means you are incompetent.
After getting rich suddenly, you become poor again, and then you cry to the sky and the earth, looking for life and death, which does not help you at all.
Will the old man sympathize with you?
Of course I will!
I'll give you a hailstone as big as an egg!
Are you happy? ? ?
Before borrowing money from Mr. Zheng, tighten your belt first.
If you don’t even have a waistband, then all that’s left is the tightening step.
Fortunately, the former Empress advocated frugality to serve the country. Even for a certain prince and his beautiful biological mother, a meal only consisted of four dishes.
Regardless of whether the court has money or not, it does not affect the queen's ability to continue to live such a poor life with enough food and drink!
A meal of two meat and two vegetables is quite good. There is no need to spend extravagantly and prepare a table full of dishes.
Worried that someone might poison you? ? ?
A certain prince didn't know what would happen to the Ming Dynasty if he died.
But poisoning the blame dumper is equivalent to saving Ming Dynasty?
For a person who is extremely mentally retarded, like the one who dumped the blame, what difference does it make between being poisoned and not poisoned? ? ?
99% of the results of the Holy Judgment are reverse manipulation!
Okay, let’s not talk about him anymore, otherwise the scapegoat will have to keep sneezing even in Nandu...
What to do now?
Just hold on tight first!
Isn't it a big joke that the tens of thousands of pigtails who entered the city didn't kill him directly, and then couldn't hold on anymore?
It doesn't matter if you stare big or small. Even if you don't eat food and just drink water, you can live for ten or eight days.
"Attack! Attack! The virus is about to attack!"
Although he is about to become a pauper, a certain prince still has a unique skill, and that is chanting curses!
"What the emperor is reciting is a spell???"
The little fat man suddenly ran over from next door and listened seriously for a moment before asking.
"Uh... that's right!"
Looking at Xiao Feizhai's eyes that were filled with hope, a certain prince couldn't deny it and reluctantly agreed.
"My brother is incompetent, I just want to grow up quickly and share my worries for my brother!"
The little fat house also wants to learn, but he thinks he is not talented enough, so he can only settle for the second best.
"...You just need to maintain your current growth rate!"
A certain prince was almost frightened to death by the little fat house's wish. If this guy grew up quickly, he would not be far away from getting married, and he would have to spend hundreds of thousands of taels of money with him.
For the little fat house, a certain prince had never thought of trying to encourage him to flourish. He asked him to study in Europe just to broaden his horizons. He did not expect him to achieve anything.
Just one capable person from the royal generation will be enough. If there are two, it will be the story of Li Da and Li Er.
Li Er is a wise king. If Li Da takes the throne instead, he may not be any worse than Li Er.
As the elder brother, as long as the little fat house has enough food and clothing, is happy, and doesn't cause trouble for himself or the people, then everything will be fine.
My beautiful biological mother must have thought so too, otherwise Daming, who was already in danger, would have been torn apart by these two brothers and the pretentious biological father...
As a certain brother who is considered very talented by outsiders, he has to prepare a considerable sum of money for his sister and brother in advance, and cannot let his beautiful mother pay for it.
Those with the same father and mother must enjoy this treatment. Regardless of whether they are married or married, they must not appear too shabby.
The two of them have a total of one million taels, no more!
No matter how much you say, the seemingly wealthy prince will not be able to bear it...
"Brother Xun, haven't the Donglu retreated yet?"
The beautiful biological mother didn't feel relieved just by calling her. She came directly from Kunning Palace. She had to hear the eldest son's personal answer in order to feel more at ease.
"Don't worry, Queen Mother. Donglu is just a grasshopper after the autumn. He has only a few days to reach the city. Before, he just used some bad tricks to enter the city from the cave, but he failed to capture the capital. Now that he has just suffered a defeat, he is still trying to Capturing the capital is just a dream. I estimate that the Donglu troops will retreat within the next few days. If it's any later, none of them will be able to leave!"
The old ladies in the back house were all frightened by the braids coming into the city. Fortunately, they could be stabilized by vaccination, otherwise the back house would have been frightened by them.
Even the beautiful biological mother who does not need to be vaccinated is generally uneasy, fearing that her braids will break through the palace and thus lose her reputation.
A certain prince was also very worried two days ago. He was also afraid that Zhou Yuji would not be able to do his best and the newly trained officers and soldiers would not be able to defend the capital, and he would eventually be sliced into pieces by his pigtails.
Unexpectedly, the Ming Dynasty King's Division, led by the East Palace Guards, relied on their absolute superiority in firepower and equipment to repulse the braided attack, which was considered a face to the court and the people.
Now, it's okay. The two sides are separated by a city wall. It's useless for Huang Taiji to get angry. Your bastard just can't get in!
Even though the city walls in the northwest area were almost turned into archaeological remains due to underground blasting, they could still play a blocking role.
Huang Taiji had repeatedly knocked on the pass before, but he did not besiege the capital because he had some scruples.
Now they are all out, if they really do this, having their front teeth chipped is an inevitable result!
Although most of the money in the hands of residents west of Caohe River was robbed by braids.
However, the silver of a certain prince and Taicang of the Ministry of Finance is still there. As long as the bulk of the money is not lost, that is enough.
"I hope so!"
As a female, Queen Zhou didn't know much about military affairs. She was just an audience member when going to court.
How to defend against the enemy and how to retreat the troops depended on the eldest son who was extremely intelligent.
It is best to drive away all the Donglu as soon as possible, otherwise we have to hold on for dear life and wait for the rescue of King Qin's army.
A certain prince knew the concerns of his beautiful biological mother, but facts spoke louder than words, and empty words were nothing more than nonsense.
If Huang Taiji withdraws his troops, it can be declared that the battle is a complete victory.
If the Emperor's Chicken doesn't leave, then let's just waste it and see who can consume it more!
Anyway, I have already made a guaranteed profit of 30,000 to 40,000 heads. If I continue to fight, I will make even more.
It's nothing more than clearing out all the money in Taicang, the household department. We can afford it even if we lose all our money.
If the money is gone, it can be earned again, and if the braids are gone, it can be regenerated.
Is it easier to make money or to have children? It’s obvious!
"Mother, please remember to eat on time and sleep on time. Your sons and ministers will take care of the matter of fending off enemies. All you need to do is appease the many aunts and aunts in the queen's residence!"
A group of beauties were separated by their braids and caused irregular schedules, endocrine disorders, loss of appetite, and even hair loss. This certain prince had no time to take care of it...
Generally speaking, the incidence of braid disease outside the city and the incidence of vaccination among people in the city should be synchronized.
Both got smallpox, but one was the original version and the other was a reduced version.
Since the vaccination times are very close, the attack periods should also be roughly similar.
"Your Highness! A nobleman in the back palace is ill!"
There was a chamberlain guarding the beauties in the rear residence and reported the situation to Li Jizhou, the eunuch Bingbi of the East Palace, who immediately came to report the situation. Colorful Chinese
"Oh? How many people are there in total? How are their conditions?"
This was great news for a certain prince, otherwise all the previous efforts would have been in vain.
"Back to Your Highness, after statistics, today is the first day that five nobles have fallen ill. The illness is still mild. Dean Wu has been notified to come and check the situation."
"Okay! Be sure to send someone to monitor at all times, rotating day and night. No omissions can be made. If there is any situation, report it at any time!"
If we extrapolate this progress, the braided camp will be bustling as early as the day after tomorrow.
Should I first gather the losers from the Military Aircraft Department for a drink to celebrate? ? ?
Thinking of this, a certain prince couldn't help but leave the house and pace in the yard with his hands behind his back.
I looked up at the sky and felt that the sky was extra blue today~!
This is mainly due to the timely onset of illness by the old ladies in the back house...
It seems that everything has two sides and cannot be generalized.
"Report~! Your Highness, the Governor of Xuanda, Yang Wenyue, has sent flying cavalry here!"
"Oh? Quickly announce his entry!"
This 80% means that King Qin's troops are coming. I hope they haven't been annihilated by Huang Taiji at this time, otherwise we will have to collect their bodies for them.
"Kowtow to see you..."
"No need! Tell me what you know about the military situation immediately!"
This person's identity should have been verified by factory guards, otherwise they would not have been let in rashly, otherwise it would have been an assassination.
"Your Highness, this is a token!"
Yang Jinchao opened a small piece of paper, which contained a written code. Yang Wenyue should have written it according to the code book. It was actually a piece of Chinese Pinyin.
A certain prince took a rough look and found out that the Qinwang's troops led by Yang Wenyue had already stationed in Yanqing Guard, but they were unable to rescue them in time due to the tens of thousands of Donglu who had previously blocked the railway.
The general supply of the Xuanda area only had a few soldiers and horses, and even the troops Yang Wenyue brought were not enough for Huangtaiji to eat. Even if Huangtaiji only sent soldiers from the Four Banners and Eight Banners, they could destroy King Qin's army.
A certain prince did not want Yang Wenyue to make the same mistake as Lu Xiangsheng. Now the emperor was so frightened by the beating by the defenders of the capital that he probably did not dare to send any more troops to attack the city.
"Going back to the Crown Prince, after my governor Yang Wenyue entered the Yanqing Guard, he wanted to rush south to aid the capital. Then he was attacked by thousands of Tatars' horsemen, causing thousands of casualties and casualties. After that, he had to retreat to the Yanqing Guard to rest temporarily. Worried about the capital being in trouble, he decided to We sent dozens of flying cavalry to deliver the message.”
"In the imperial court, how many flying knights have arrived in the capital?"
"Back to Your Highness, this is the only one!"
"...Being able to bravely break through the Donglu defense line and report such important military information is a great achievement. Someone, please take this warrior down to rest quickly and treat him well."
"Your Highness, the Governor is still waiting for the little one to return..."
"I'm not in a hurry, how anxious are you? The capital is not yet occupied. Two days ago, the king's defenders gathered in the city to annihilate tens of thousands of Donglu. Your governor wouldn't believe it. You've been tired all the way. Eat and drink first, and then Take a shower, take a nap, and when you regain your strength, set out early tomorrow morning. It’s not too late to go back and report back!”
"Still not thankful?"
"Thank you, Prince!"
"Enter the court and reward him with a hundred taels of silver! Go back and tell your governor that as long as you bring me the message from this palace, you will be promoted to the position of general manager!"
"Ah? A message from Shenzi??"
"I just said that! Your brain... haha!"
"Stupid! The Crown Prince just said that the Wang Division's defenders had gathered in the city to annihilate tens of thousands of Donglu!"
"Oh~!"
Yang Jinchao could only take this idiot out first, so as not to offend the prince.
However, if this idiot didn't believe in the matter of gathering and annihilating tens of thousands of Donglu, Yang Wenyue would definitely not believe it either.
This guy has enough luck, so a certain prince planned to let this guy continue to deliver letters, hoping that his luck hadn't run out yet.
Asking him to do this also gave him enough benefits. One hundred taels of silver was raised to a thousand bosses, which was worthy of his loyalty and courage.
Near midnight, the soldier had already eaten and drank enough. Wang Shide, the commander of the Jinyiwei, changed his mount, but it was much better than the previous horse.
We have brought one day's fodder for the war horses, and three days' worth of dry food and water for the men. If the journey goes smoothly, this will be enough to reach Yanqing Guard.
On the contrary, they told him how to deal with it and which way would be more appropriate. At that time, he would go to the contacts of the Jin Yiwei scattered in the area south of the capital.
Yanqing Guard is located in the northwest of the capital, why go to the south?
Because Huang Taiji would definitely block the main land routes except the east in order to prevent King Qin's troops from approaching the capital.
From Zuo'anmen in the southeast corner of the outer city, ride your horse straight to Daxing, then to Tongzhou, and finally to Yanqingwei via the Yu River.
This is a relatively safe route, as long as you don't get caught by your fellow travelers before arriving in Daxing.
With more people and bigger targets, Jinyiwei did not send too many people to protect them, only one leader and three subordinates.
This time, this idiot went on the road with two other companions who later arrived in the capital. Each of them carried a reply written by a certain prince to Yang Wenyue.
Without a codebook, it is impossible to understand, let alone decipher.
Even if this idiot is caught and spits out what he knows, it is still something that Pigtail already knows.
Although Huang Taiji ordered the Yi Aha to dig trenches around the city, the perimeter of the capital was too large, and a new city was built.
Even if the Qing army deployed tens of thousands of coaters, it would be difficult to complete a project of this scale in a short period of time.
Especially in the area south of the city, these simple trenches basically have no effect on blocking the flying knights.
After Huang Taiji suffered a new defeat, he had no interest in letting the coaters continue digging trenches.
Now the focus of the Qing army's operations has shifted from siege to reinforcements, especially after Yang Wenyue's troops took the initiative to invade but failed.
Dorgon had the intention to lead his troops to besiege the Yanqing Guards where Yang Wenyue's troops were entrenched, but he was worried that he would be deceived again during the siege.
After the Ming army was equipped with a large amount of kerosene, the Qing army might lose thousands of people in a single attack.
Dorgon couldn't bear this level of casualties, so he could only resort to defensive means and hope that the other party would send troops again.
Dorgon did not adopt a siege strategy at all. He just asked Azig to take two armored men with white flags and cooperate with the Menggu cavalry of the Four Banners to station about thirty miles south of Yanqing Guard.
His younger brother Duduo was in Wanping with the other three Jia La and the three banners of the outer vassals, monitoring the movements of the Ming army south of the capital.
Dorgon himself brought all the soldiers and horses of the Zhengbai Banner and four other Menggu cavalry tribes as a reserve force to rush to the aid of the two brothers at any time.
This arrangement is more appropriate. Turning the siege battle into a positional battle can better utilize the cavalry assault advantage of the Qing royal division and avoid losing men and horses during the siege.
For those flying cavalry of the Ming army coming in and out, the Qing army did not mobilize troops to intercept them. They stopped them if they could, but there was no need to worry if they couldn't.
At this point, if you want to turn defeat into victory, you must gather and annihilate Man Ming's King Qin's troops in a field battle before you can continue to besiege Man Ming's capital.
King Qin's army was really intimidated and did not dare to attack, but it was difficult for the Qing army to make a comeback.
But at noon the next day, under the guidance of the local Jinyi Guards, these flying horses went north along the Yu River, bypassed Tianshou Mountain, and arrived at Yanqing Guards.
"Master Wang defeated Donglu? Are you serious?"
Yang Wenyue was so anxious that the corners of his mouth were already blistering. After reading the note written by the Crown Prince himself, he had to hear Fei Qi admit it in person before he could believe most of the content.
"Going back to the governor, I saw with my own eyes that there were a large number of Donglu corpses piled up west of the Cao River. They were all covered with armor. I can't go wrong. I also saw the prince with my own eyes. The prince rewarded me with a hundred taels of silver. , and also said..."
"Speak quickly! Don't hesitate!"
"He also said that he would let the young one meet the governor, and ask the governor to promote the young one to be the boss!"
"...Hmph!"
The last one was very much like the prince's eclectic style. After a brief consideration, Yang Wenyue calmed down and felt that he had to think carefully about the whole situation to avoid being deceived into missing important events for King Qin.
