Shuntian Prefecture Tongzhou is so hot that it is unbearable.

The old people all say that such high temperatures have never happened in the past few decades. The last time that I remembered was the last time that was so hot was the same as before the previous Ming Dynasty, Wanli.

But it was too hot today. The temperature kept rising at night. In the morning, the air was humid and stuffy, and people would sweat when sitting in the room.

"Why is the ghost weather in Ming Dynasty so hot!"

Han Yun was the Gaolizuo leader who had just brought troops from Beijing. Until now, the Eight Banners had 6 Korean subordinates, 2 Korean subordinates, 3 were tied to the Zhengbai Banner, and 5 were tied to the Inlaid White Banner. The 8 Korean subordinates and their families had more than 10,000 people, and almost most of them were placed in the Tongzhou area.

After the Qing army entered the pass last year, the Regent Dorgon ordered the third-class Angbang Zhang Jingying and Yierdai to serve as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and implemented the strategy of restoring people's livelihood of "persuading agriculture and sericulture to plant the foundation, and ease the escape to make the household registration" to restore people's livelihood, and presided over the migration of Manchu and Han immigrants outside the pass to enclose the land within the pass and fill the capital.

In more than a year, under the leadership of Yingyi Erdai, the families of the Eight Banners soldiers and Han people were moved from outside the pass, and more than 800,000 culprits were filled with the capital.

There were still tens of thousands of Manchu and Mongolian Eight Banners and Han Army families outside the pass, and there were more than two million destiny. The Han slaves captured from the pass during the Chongde period were not allowed to move in.

Han Yun and other Koreans in the Eight Banners were placed in Tongzhou by British and Oerdai, and two of them were stationed in Zhangjiawan, an important canal checkpoint in Tongzhou.

Zhangjiawan was established in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, and the ancestral home of Li Sancai, a famous think tank of the Donglin Party, was also here.

After the Korean Eight Banners soldiers entered Zhangjiawan, they changed the place to Goryeozhuang, occupying a radius of 30 miles of fertile land. Where the Eight Banners soldiers arrived, the landlord immediately came out. All the houses belonged to the Eight Banners. Those who wives, concubines and women were ugly were asked to take the landlords, and those who were beautiful were left to the army.

The scale of land enclosure last year was relatively small, involving only several counties near the capital. Because there were too many Aha slaves to migrate the population outside the pass, Ying'erdai wanted to carry out a second round of land enclosure this year, one was used to resettle the migrant population, and the other was to reward the soldiers who had made contributions to the Eight Banners with the intention of the Regent.

But before the time was enough to start a circle, the Huai thieves in the south came from Tianjin. For a while, the capital was martial law, flag soldiers were mobilized, and all the yamen and places near the capital were working hard to defend against the thieves. The matter of enclosing land stopped, otherwise the land owners who were enclosed would definitely have a merger with the Huai thieves to cause trouble.

It is said that fat people are afraid of heat, but Zuoling Han Yun is not too fat, but on the contrary, he looks very strong. Even so, the high temperature and stuffy heat still make him feel a little unbearable.

After staying in the house for a while, Han Yun finally couldn't stand it and walked towards the door. He decided to go to the canal beside the village to take a shower. Anyway, it was not dawn yet, so he was not afraid of being seen.

The Tongzhou area is now stationed not only in 800 Gaolizuo's troops led by Han Yun, but also in 600 Manzhou Zhengbai Banner Eight Banners, more than 1,500 Mongolian Eight Banners, and one of the few Green Camp soldiers.

The Manchu and Mongolian soldiers were just transferred from Beijing a few days ago. Tongzhou is the gateway to Beijing. If there is any mistake, the Huai bandits can attack the capital directly. Therefore, the Regent attached great importance to Tongzhou's defense matters. In addition to drawing nearly 2,000 people from the few Manchu and Mongolian Eight Banners soldiers in the capital to garrison Tongzhou, he also urgently ordered Prince Yu Duo, who was returning north at night, to send troops to Tongzhou.

Even the Regent was already considering whether to "in-chief the emperor personally", leading the remaining thousands of Eight Banners soldiers in the capital to fight against the northern Huai bandits in Tongzhou, hoping to defeat the northern disaster in one battle.

However, the Huai thieves were also extremely cunning. They used horse and mule maneuvers to specifically pick up the weak and empty places of the Qing army's garrison. They first rushed from Wuqing to Xianghe, and then from Xianghe to Qianxian. They originally wanted to take Tongzhou directly, but seeing that Tongzhou was tightly defended, they lightly rode westward in Liangxiang and Fangshan area, intending to attract the Qing army in Tongzhou to the west.

He even rushed to the Lugou River area of ​​Wanping for a while, and the forward-looking horses appeared on the Lugou Bridge. The Eight Banners of Manchus in the city had just been dispatched to the city to prepare for the battle, and the Huai bandits turned their heads and ran back to the east.

This repeated twice, causing the Manchu powerful people in Beijing to know whether the Huai thieves wanted to open Tongzhou or directly attack the capital from the west of the capital. In the end, they could only use more than 2,000 Eight Banners soldiers to defend Tongzhou. The remaining more than 6,000 princes, princes, and more than 10,000 Aha's servants in the Beile Mansion to strictly guard against the capital, and did not give the Huai thieves any opportunity to take advantage of it.

Many Han people in Beijing heard that there were Han troops outside the city, and they felt that they were like when they heard that there were braided soldiers outside the city. Many former Ming officials privately discussed that the Qing Dynasty would probably not last as long as the short-lived Dashun.

As people's hearts were shaken, the smart people who were demoted to work but failed. They went to the court meeting every day, but they became "silent gentlemen" and no longer dared to blatantly give advice for the Manchus.

Especially recently, assassination incidents against the surrendered Han officials in Beijing have begun to occur, which has made the surrendered officials lose confidence in the Qing Dynasty.

If it weren't for the news that Li Zicheng was killed from Prince Ying, he would have slightly stabilized his intention to surrender his official position, I'm afraid that a wave of Han officials who abandoned their seals and resigned from their official positions would have set off in Beijing.

.........

When Han Yun left the village, he was relieved to see that his subordinates were sweating profusely, but he always stayed at his post.

Although they are Koreans, they are now Manchus of the Qing Dynasty. If they are unsatisfied, they will lose not only the face of Han Zuoleng, but also the face of the Eight Banners soldiers.

After coming to the canal and looking at the water-lifting river, Han Yun took a deep breath and started to get into the water. After walking a few steps forward, when his knees were not in the water, he felt a chill and very comfortable. He couldn't help but jumped down, splashing a splash of water, stirring up circles of water marks.

The coolness of the river made Han Yun feel comfortable and refreshed, and also made his head cool. He plunged into the water and swam forward for more than ten meters before he showed his head from the water surface. He looked around and his face suddenly changed, and his hands and feet stopped slashing, and he sank down.

"The thief is here, the thief is here!"

Han Yun, who had been choked by the river several times, swam desperately to the shore, and while swam, he shouted to warn Zhuangzi, because there were countless pairs of eyes staring at him on the other side of the canal.

"Damn it, where did this Tartar come out? What river will it go down early in the morning!"

The smuggling was discovered by a Tartar. Qi Bao was so angry that he spitted and scolded him. But what's the use of scolding? The Qing army opposite had already discovered them.

"My master, what should I do!"

Qi Bao turned his head and looked at the governor's nephew Li Yanzong who caught up from behind.
