Faced with Emperor Chongzhen's thunderous rage and roar, Chen Xinjia was already trembling in fear. He knelt on the ground and said with fear,
"Long live! During the Battle of Songjin, Overseer Hong had already transferred all the troops from the Xuanfu, Jingying, Datong, Jizhou, Miyun, and other towns. This old minister really couldn't transfer any more troops to aid Songshan!”
"Zhen doesn't care about this! If Songshan and Jinzhou fall into the hands of Slave Jian, it will be because of your incompetence as Minister of War. I will definitely throw you into prison!”
Emperor Chongzhen ignored him and was furious again. Chen Xinjia was so scared that he knelt on the ground and did not dare to say another word.
After that!
The court session lasted until the middle of the morning. Emperor Chongzhen understood the situation of the Central Plains bandits inside the pass!
After that, they urged the Ministry of Revenue to get the silver!
What a pity!
The Minister of Revenue almost died in this hall and could not take out another tael of silver.
The entire treasury of the Ming Dynasty had been empty for several years!
There was no money, no people, and the country was in danger. Emperor Chongzhen could only order the civil and military officials to raise funds, but in return, the civil and military officials kept their mouths shut and did not answer at all.
In the end, the court meeting this time was once again dismissed.
Yangxin Palace Hall!
Emperor Chongzhen looked at Empress Zhou, who was washing her face with tears. Clearly, the Empress was waiting for news again!
But…
His son could not be revived, so how could there be a miracle?
"Empress! You haven't eaten for days and haven't slept at night. You have to pay more attention to your body!”
Looking at the emaciated Empress, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but feel a heartache as he spoke with pity.
"Long live! Is there any news about my son?"
Empress Zhou still had some extravagant hopes. There was still a chance of survival if she did not see the person or the corpse.
"Sigh! Come in!"
Emperor Chongzhen helped Empress Zhou up, and the Great Eunuch Wang Chengen summoned a person in!
"Commander Luo Yangxing of the Brocade Guard kneels and greets the Empress!”
The person who came in was the commander of the Brocade Guard, Luo Yangxing. After kneeling down to see him, he said sadly,"This general is incompetent and failed to protect His Highness the Crown Prince, causing His Highness to die tragically under the Jian Nu Steel Cavalry.”
"Luo Yangxing, you really deserve to die! At this moment, I wish I could cut you into pieces!”Emperor Chongzhen thought about how the Crown Prince was killed by the cavalrymen of Slave Jian under the heavy protection of the Brocade Guard!
Therefore!
Luo Yangxing, the commander of the Brocade Guards, would not be able to atone for his sins even if he died ten thousand times.
"I deserve to die!"
Luo Yangxing was also trembling in fear. He knelt on the ground and did not dare to raise his head.
"Commander Luo, has my son really died in battle?! Did the Embroidered Uniform Guards bring the body of the emperor's son back to the pass?？”
Emperor Chongzhen was furious and wanted to kill!
However, the Empress of Zhou wanted to see the dead and the living, and if she wanted to find her son within the blockade of Slave Jian, she had to rely on the Brocade Guard.
Therefore, Luo Yangxing deserved to die, but not now.
"Replying to the Empress! The Jian Nu Steel Cavalry surrounded the Songjin defense line tightly. The Embroidered Uniform Guards tried to break through many times, but they suffered heavy losses and failed several times!”
"However, please rest assured, Your Majesty. I'll head outside the pass now. I must personally snatch back the crown prince's body!”
Of course, Luo Yangxing knew the little hope in Empress Zhou's heart.
But…
The Crown Prince's death in battle was already an ironclad fact, so Luo Yangxing only said that he would snatch the corpse back.
Of course!
Now that Emperor Chongzhen was about to kill someone at any moment, Luo Yangxing felt that it was better to leave the capital first and avoid it first.
"Get lost! Leave the capital immediately and find my son!”
Emperor Chongzhen could only play along and appease the Empress.
Because Emperor Chongzhen knew that his son would never return.
……
After a night of rapid marching, Zhu Qing led his 300 cavalry to the Daling River and immediately gave the order to rest.
"My lord! Once we cross the Daling River, we'll really be deep into Slave Jian's lair. Even if we want to turn back, we won't have the chance!”
Lu Jianxing and Yu Zhen rode on their horses to protect Zhu Qing. Lu Jianxing reminded him.
"Sword Star, do you still think it's too risky?!”
Zhu Qing didn't turn his head. He also looked at the surface of the Daling River after the sun rose from the east and said!
"My lord! This general still has the same words, climb mountains of knives and descend seas of fire, I swear to follow you to the death!”Lu Jianxing said again.
"Yes! Sword Star, let me put it this way! This time, in order to win the Battle of Songjin, the slave chieftain, Huang Taiji, had used up all of Liaodong's resources. He had even mobilized all the males above the age of thirteen and below the age of sixty!”
"Of course! It was impossible for all these children and elderly to be pulled to the front line of Songjin. Instead, they were arranged to guard the rear!”
"Therefore, there are only a few children and old men guarding Slave Jian's old nest in Shengjing, and there are only four to five thousand soldiers. As long as we raid and take down Shengjing, Slave Jian's old nest will be our endless treasure!”
"Therefore, a man should make great contributions and go straight to the Yellow Dragon, Fenglang Juxu, and cross the river!”
Zhu Qing pulled out his Embroidered Spring Saber and ordered the entire army to cross the river.
When Zhu Qing ordered them to cross the river and attack Slave Jian's nest, the leader of Slave Jian, Huang Taiji, was waiting for the news from the cavalry in the main camp!
However, he would never have thought that someone would be so bold and arrogant as to go straight to his Shengjing Sect base camp.
