"The purpose of our victory is of course to make it easier for you to move the capital!"
Zhu Cixiang looked at Emperor Chongzhen in front of him with a helpless look on his face and said.
"Father, you don't think that our few victories can really make Li Zicheng's army crippled, right?"
Hearing Zhu Cixiang's words, Emperor Chongzhen was stunned for a moment. He hesitated for a moment, looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him and said: "Even if they are not injured, at least they don't have the courage to fight us head-on! We only need to recruit troops,
Then slowly fight them, and then..."
"Then let them besiege Beijing again?"
Zhu Cixi looked at Emperor Chongzhen in front of him with a wry smile in his eyes and said.
"Father! You have to understand that the problem now is not with the army, but with the fact that the city of Beijing cannot be defended now!
Unless our troops stay in Beijing and not go out! But in that case, the city outside will be eaten away by intruders.
And if we want to go out to fight against the intruders, there is no way to fight them head-on! They have ten times the army as ours! He can fail ten times, but we only need to fail once..."
Zhu Cixiang did not continue speaking, but a trace of emotion flashed in his eyes.
Looking at Zhu Cihong in front of him, Emperor Chongzhen was stunned for a moment.
"Is there really no way?"
"Yes! Of course there is a way!"
Zhu Cixiang looked at Emperor Chongzhen in front of him calmly and said.
"As I said, the imperial court is shrinking its power! I will go to Shandong, father, you go to Nanjing, I will station troops in Shandong, slowly accumulate power, and then I will conquer the world! All this cannot be rushed!"
"But, like this..."
Emperor Chongzhen wanted to say something else, but Zhu Cixiang was already a little impatient at this time. He looked at Emperor Chongzhen in front of him and said: "Father! Do you really think that the world now is still the world ten years ago???
Do you really think Li Zicheng still has ringworm and scabies??"
Emperor Chongzhen fell silent upon hearing Zhu Cixiang's death.
At this time, Zhu Cixi sighed slightly, looked at Emperor Chongzhen in front of him and said: "Father! If it hadn't really been a critical moment, how could I have thought of giving up the entire north? I also knew how much pressure my father was facing.
.
However, for the present, this is really the only way! Unless my father can make Zuo Liangyu completely listen to us! Otherwise, the situation will be very critical!"
Zhu Cixiang looked at Emperor Chongzhen in front of him seriously and said.
After hearing Zhu Cixiang's words, Emperor Chongzhen fell into silence.
Looking at the silent Emperor Chongzhen, Zhu Cixiang sighed slightly, looked at the Emperor Chongzhen in front of him and said: "Father, I hope more than anyone else to purify the world as soon as possible.
But we really don’t have enough power now! In addition to the tens of thousands of troops in Shanhaiguan, the only ones we have that can fight now are the tens of thousands of troops in my hands.
And those people in Shanhaiguan can't move now. If the intruders really react, they only need to divide their forces to encroach on our place. Even if we can win some battles, we will still be exhausted, and in the end..."
Zhu Cixiang did not continue.
But Emperor Chongzhen on the side nodded, sighed, looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him and said: "It seems that I was too hasty, alas!"
Seeing that Emperor Chongzhen actually admitted his mistake, Zhu Cixiang was stunned for a moment. He glanced at Emperor Chongzhen in front of him in surprise.
My father was not like this before. Can he admit his mistake?
Then I'm afraid Li Zicheng won't be able to defeat Beijing!
It seems that my father has been reflecting a lot these days!
"Father is wise!"
At this time, Zhu Cixi still wanted to say something to Emperor Chongzhen.
"Brother Chun! Brother Chun!"
At this time, Queen Zhou's voice came from outside the palace.
Emperor Chongzhen on the side smiled slightly, looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him and said: "I almost forgot that your mother has been talking about you in my ears during this period. If it hadn't been against the rules this time, she would have pestered me to come with you. I’m going to welcome you back after your victory!”
Upon hearing Emperor Chongzhen's words, Zhu Cixiang's eyes flashed with emotion.
At this time, Queen Zhou had already quickly ran into Qianqing Palace.
"Mother, please slow down."
"Slow down!"
Several palace maids and eunuchs could not stop Queen Zhou. Queen Zhou ran to the palace and looked at the intact Zhu Cixiang, her eyes full of love.
"Brother Chun, I have to suffer a lot this time on behalf of your father."
Empress Zhou gently rubbed Zhu Cixiang's head, her eyes full of love.
"Actually, it's not bad. Life outside is also in the palace of General Fengguo and my prince. Life is not much worse than in the palace, but I often think of my father and the queen."
Zhu Cixiang looked at Chongzhen and Empress Zhou in front of him seriously and said.
After hearing Zhu Cixiang's words, Chongzhen's expression became very soft. With a smile on his face, he looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him. Queen Zhou on the side looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of her with more and more affection.
Her eyes were slightly red, and she looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of her and said: "It's a pity that the world is not peaceful, and those civil servants and generals are not very reliable. It still depends on my Brother Chun to lead the expedition in person!"
"It will be fine in the future! Queen Mother!"
With a smile on his face, Zhu Cixi looked at Queen Zhou in front of him and said.
"In recent years, the world has been experiencing constant natural disasters, man-made disasters, droughts, lower temperatures, and lower food production, resulting in constant natural disasters, and in this case.
The Qing troops in the north are causing trouble, and the big landowners, bureaucrats, and dignitaries in the south are still annexing land and even suppressing the collection of commercial taxes. Even though my father has tried his best to balance it, working hard every day, and even staying up at night, the world has been corrupted to this point. ……well!"
Zhu Cixiang sighed.
Chongzhen on the side turned slightly red when he heard Zhu Cixiang's words. He knew that his son was trying to save face and make excuses for himself.
Although what my son said makes sense, I cannot shirk my own problems and responsibilities!
"Ahem!"
Chongzhen coughed slightly.
"Well, there is no point in talking about this now!"
"Yes! Father!"
Zhu Cixiang quickly saluted Emperor Chongzhen in front of him.
At this time, Queen Zhou in front of her looked at Zhu Cihong lovingly, and asked about Zhu Cihong's life outside these days, what he was eating, and whether the clothes he wore were warm.
In the evening, Emperor Chongzhen held a banquet for his soldiers.
All generals who have reached a certain level can enter the Forbidden City to eat royal meals, while other more generals are all given imperial wine, and thousands of jars of imperial wine are carried into the military camp.
There was also a royal banquet specially awarded by Emperor Chongzhen, which made the military camp suddenly full of shouts of long live.
