Chapter 897

In the Jiashen year, Li Zicheng captured Beijing, and Emperor Chongzhen and eunuch Wang Chengen hanged themselves in Coal Mountain, and the Chongzhen court was destroyed.

After that, Li Zicheng was defeated by the Qing Dynasty, and the remnants of Ming Dynasty retreated to Jiangnan, and Beijing was occupied by the Qing Dynasty for fifteen years.

Fifteen years later, the Ming army finally recovered the capital, and everyone felt a sense of emotion.

At this time, Zhao Ming and everyone climbed the Coal Mountain and came to the crooked tree.

"Your Highness, it is said that this is where Emperor Yizong hangs himself to sacrifice his country!" Zhang Jiayu pointed to a tree in front of him and said.

When Li Dingguo and others heard the words, their expressions became serious, but at this time the Regent started to cry without warning.

Now Zhao Ming can cry just by crying, and he doesn’t have to brew emotions at all. He is already a qualified actor.

Zhao Ming cried heartbrokenly, as if he had a very deep relationship with Chongzhen, "Last Emperor~Last Emperor~ Revitalize the Ming Dynasty and recover the Shenjing, I did it~"

When the generals saw this, they felt a little sad. Li Dingguo, Gao Yigong and others felt a little sad, but they could not compare with the Regent.

Seeing Zhao Ming crying so sadly, they believed even more that the Regent was loyal to the Ming Dynasty.

Only by loving the Ming Dynasty and the land under your feet can you express your true feelings as if you were the Regent.

For a moment, everyone was also infected. The group accompanied Zhao Ming to tears, and then comforted the regent one after another. Zhao Ming stopped the sound, and then stood with the generals on Coal Mountain overlooking the city of Beijing.

"This Coal Mountain is the highest peak in Beijing. Standing on the top of the mountain, you can overlook the whole city. When Emperor Yizong stood here and watched the trespass enter the city, I wonder how he felt?" Zhao Ming sighed.

Zhang Jiayu said: "Your Highness regained Beijing, and the Ming flag was planted inside and outside the city. Emperor Yizong could see it, and he would probably rest in peace!"

"If your Highness hadn't been determined this time and decided to regain Beijing first, this Beijing might have been occupied by the Qing Dynasty for a long time!" Li Dingguo also recognized Zhao Ming's behavior.

Zhao Ming nodded slightly and then said, "Shenjing recovered, but the great cause of Zhongxing has not been completed. The land of Guanlong and Bashu was divided by Wu Sangui. There were also royal family rebellions within the court, and they still need to be pacified one by one."

Zhang Jiayu said: "Nanjing is really not so good. Since Jiajing, the population of the clan vassals has expanded and the invasion of the land of the people has become increasingly serious. By Wanli, Tianqi and Chongzhen, they were even more overwhelmed. The demise of the Chongzhen dynasty was closely related to the occupation of a large amount of wealth by the vassal kings. The state dynasty had raised the clan vassal for nearly three hundred years, but the clan vassal did not contribute to the court. This time, the regent's northern expedition, not only did they not support it, but also made chaos in the rear, which was indeed too much."

When the generals heard the words, they naturally expressed their opinions that the Qing Dynasty had destroyed and the next goal was already very obvious. Everyone spoke and separated from Nanjing.

Zhao Ming then said: "The Northern Expedition lasted for nearly half a year, and the matter in Nanjing cannot be delayed anymore!"

Zhao Ming looked at Zhang Jiayu and said, "Now that Beijing has recovered, the order in the city and local areas must be restored as soon as possible. The army must quickly sweep away the remnants of the Qing army in Hebei and local bandits, and restore local peace as soon as possible."

"Secondly, tens of thousands of Han troops surrendered in the city. These troops and horses were to be reorganized and sent to various places to farm. Again, the land in Hebei has just been recovered, and the local area is still unstable and temporarily controlled by the army. After the imperial court sent officials in place, local bandits and remnants of the Qing army were cleared, they were then controlled by civil servants. In addition, the Qing Dynasty entered the pass and received help from many traitors. These people were accomplices for tigers, colluding with the enemy and selling the country. After arresting, as long as the evidence is conclusive, they would kill them and not be ruthless."

After hearing this, Zhang Jiayu and others nodded repeatedly.

Zhao Ming then said in a deep voice: "Finally, although we destroyed the Qing Dynasty this time, it is not the time to relax. I have to return to the army recently to quell the Nanjing rebellion. The Zhou Kingdom to the west must be closely monitored and kept on guard."

Zhao Ming and everyone stood on the top of the mountain for a while and before they could see it was already noon.

"Okay! Go down the mountain to have a meal!" Zhao Ming felt hungry, so he smiled and waved his hand, leading a group of people down to the coal mountain.

Although the imperial city was captured, Zhao Ming did not live in the imperial city, but still used Duoduo's mansion as his palace.

When he returned from Coal Mountain, the soldiers had already cleaned up and carried all the bodies away, leaving only some blood on the ground.

Zhao Ming summoned everyone to eat something casually. As soon as he finished eating, a soldier reported and captured Fan Wencheng, Wang Shixuan and others.

At this time, Zhao Ming had just finished his meal and nothing happened, so he even asked someone to take Fan Wencheng and others in.

Zhao Ming sat on the throne and chatted with many civil and military officials for a while. Soon, the soldiers cut their hands and pressed Fan Wencheng, who was pressing his head, pushed and kicked them into the hall.

The soldier kicked Fan Wencheng's calf, and with a click, his bones broke again.

Fan Wencheng grinned in pain, and many traitors were kicked to kneel on the ground, lowered their heads, shivered, and pale.

"Fan Wencheng, look up." Zhao Ming said lightly and seriously: "Let the Lone King look at your old face!"

"The sinner dares not!" Fan Wencheng said tremblingly.

Zhao Ming said in anger: "I told you to look up!"

Fan Wencheng could only raise his head and reveal his vicissitudes of old face.

Zhao Ming asked: "Do you know who Gu is?"

"No one in the world knows the Regent!" Fan Wencheng said in panic.

Zhao Ming said: "Since you know the Lone King, do you know your own fate!"

"The sinner knows that his sins are serious and have no face to see others. He also asks His Highness to give the sinner a death. He just hopes that His Highness will give me mercy, save my grandson's life, and leave incense for my Fan family. The sinner will also recite the great kindness of His Highness after his death!" Fan Wencheng knew that he was ranked first and knew that he would die, but the Fan family could not be defeated.

Zhao Ming snorted coldly, "You traitor still want to keep incense. How can you be worthy of the Ming army and civilians who died in battle and were killed by the Qing army? The orders passed by the Order were all composed of the A-level tribes, and no one could plead for mercy!"

Several traitors in the hall heard the words, and their heads tilted, they fainted, and Fan Wencheng also sat on the ground.

The soldiers immediately stepped forward and dragged them out.

The next day, at Caishikou, Beijing, Fan Wencheng was cut into the city. His relatives were nearly 100, and other people ranked first, nearly 100 were killed.

After several days of continuous blood flowing into a river of Caishikou, the people applauded.

As Zhao Ming recovered Beijing and swept Hebei, a cavalry of 30,000 people ran like a long dragon on the desolate northwest land.

Wu Sangui was wearing golden armor and galloping on his horse, and the cavalry behind him rolled up the yellow dust in the sky.

"King, Jiayuguan!" Wu Guozhu suddenly pointed to the front and shouted excitedly.

When Wu Sangui heard the words, he couldn't help but hold back the reins of the horse. He looked into the distance and saw the majestic Jiayuguan in the distance.

Wu Sangui was immediately overjoyed, waved his whip and shouted loudly, "Speed ​​up!"
