Zhou Shixiong knew that the people in the Ministry of War were in a mess when he saw this efficiency. He probably had a claw in the Minister of War. For his own sake, Zhou Shixiong took out the token of the imperial envoy to hand it over to Huang Qiankun, "Go to the imperial envoy to the Ministry of War to announce the imperial envoy's order, and let all the officials of the Ministry of War come out to register on the street. The registered military officers will leave immediately and must not be stranded. If the people in the Ministry of War want to see the imperial envoy, the official is very busy and has already inspected elsewhere."

Strictly speaking, Zhou Shixiong was falsely circulating the imperial edict. The imperial envoy did not mobilize the power of officials at all. However, Zhou Shixiong relied on his close relationship with Emperor Chongzhen, as long as he was not too much, it should be nothing.

Huang Qiankun held the token of the imperial envoy and shouted "I will be given the imperial edict, and all officials will avoid it." A crack appeared magically, just enough for a horse to pass through. Zhou Shixiong did not want to be seen, so he dismounted early and hid behind the crowd. After all, he would still feel guilty when he falsely passed the imperial edict.

Not long after, a group of officials carried the tables onto Chang'an Street and set up a long snake formation on the street. The Jinyiwei also received an order to stand in front of the long snake formation to command traffic. Huang Qiankun waved the token and said loudly, "Come in line to register, those who dare to disrupt the order will be punished! Those who have registered will leave immediately, and those who are stranded will be punished severely!"

Now there are rules, and the registration speed has increased. In less than half an hour, thousands of people have almost left. Zhou Shixiong walked slowly behind a dragon. After registering, he winked at Huang Qiankun and turned to leave. Not long after everyone returned to the inn, Huang Qiankun also rushed back. "Qiankun, haven't the stuff exposed?"

"Don't worry, the young man said he wanted to go back and report his life. The Secretary Wang also stuffed a silver to the young man, so that the young man could follow the enemy and say good things." Huang Qiankun took out a purse and shook it. Zhou Shixiong smiled, "Since it is Mr. Wang who rewarded you, please take it. Don't let Wang Shangshu down."

That night, Fang Zhenghua came to the inn again and told Zhou Shixiong very depressedly, "Long live to summon ministers to discuss countermeasures, and the officials did not even have the chance to get close to him, so they were entrusted by the Lord."

Zhou Shixiong could imagine that since Emperor Chongzhen received the news that Jiannu entered the pass, he probably didn't even have time to sleep. It was normal for him to have no time to pay attention to these eunuchs. But it was related to his own life. Zhou Shixiong had to meet Emperor Chongzhen. After walking around the house for a few times, Zhou Shixiong suddenly came up with an idea, "Xiao Fang, have the cabinet come up with any good ideas?"

"What good idea can I have? Lord Sun leads the Beijing camp and the military and political protection of the capital in Shunyi, Tongzhou. Yuan commands the Wang Jun to command the Wang Jun to intercept Jiannu. This is the good idea given by the cabinet." Fang Zhenghua was a little annoyed. The so-called cabinet ideas were actually the suggestions put forward by Sun Chengzong. Emperor Chongzhen made the decision, and the cabinet did not even let go of a fart. These scholars usually had one set of things, but they were all mute when they encountered major events.

"That's it, okay." Fang Zhenghua didn't understand what was good about this, but Zhou Shixiong didn't have time to solve his doubts, so he pulled out a memorial to start writing. Fang Zhenghua stood aside and pretended to grind ink, peeking at what Zhou Shixiong wrote, the more he looked, the more surprised he became.

The content of Zhou Shixiong’s memorial is very common in modern times. Whenever there is an emergency, our party will set up a temporary command center, with a certain boss taking the lead and each unit is unified in command and allocation. Zhou Shixiong suggested that Emperor Chongzhen learn this trick and establish a command center for the Anti-Japanese War, commanding part three levels, front line and back line and central army. Of course, the front line is Jizhen, and the back line is Tongzhou Huairou Shunyi, and the central army is naturally the capital.

It is useless to just build a three-level structure, and each branch has to arrange tasks. The front-line command is responsible for intercepting and blocking Jiannu, and the back-line command is responsible for organizing regular troops and the royal army to provide soldiers to the front line. The central army raises and allocates resources to allow soldiers who are on the battlefield to kill the enemy with swords, guns, and food and salary. The most important suggestion is to set up a general staff department in the central army to analyze the front line and give combat plans.

Zhou Shixiong ignored everything in order to save his life. What impact will these extraordinary ideas have on the Ming Dynasty? That is the future. Now he only hopes that he can help Emperor Chongzhen to the greatest extent and save his life by the way. In fact, it is the truth to talk about it.

Fang Zhenghua hurriedly left with the not-dried memorial note. He vowed that he would hand the note to Emperor Chongzhen as soon as possible, and even if he forced himself to break into the imperial study, he would do it. Zhou Shixiong instead advised him not to be so excited and not to be afraid at all.

Zhou Shixiong's idea was good, but unfortunately Jiannu did not give him much time. In the early morning of that day, Zhou Shixiong was woken up by Fang Zhenghua, "Sir, come to the palace with the lower officials immediately."

"What happened?" Asked the chip and knew that it was only three o'clock now, so there must be a problem in entering the palace in such a hurry.

"Santun Camp surrendered without fighting, Jiannu would go south to the capital at any time. After reading the memorial of the Lord, he said, "It would be better sooner." Zhou Shixiong could not see Fang Zhenghua's expression clearly, but he could guess how frustrated Fang Zhenghua was, but now Zhou Shixiong has no choice but to hope that Emperor Chongzhen would not send him out of the capital.

When he arrived at the imperial study, Zhou Shixiong saw the extremely haggard Emperor Chongzhen. His originally fat face turned into a panda, his cheeks were missing a piece of flesh, and his skin was a little loose. It seemed that he was more tormented than Zhou Shixiong these days, and he was afraid he had never slept with a good night's sleep.

"Zhou Aiqing, I have read the memoirs you submitted, and I have made all the suggestions. Unfortunately, the thief Zhu Guoyan killed Zhao Lujiao and offered the city to the enemy. There was only the last line of defense left in the capital. It was hard to say how many days it could block Jiannu." Emperor Chongzhen was very pessimistic. He did not expect that only tens of thousands of Jiannu would dare to enter the pass and go south. These tens of thousands of Jiannu had broken the Great Wall, Zunhua, and Santun camps, and were like a storm. The border troops were still unable to resist, and the Beijing camps in Sun Chengzong's hands were really useless!

"The emperor's words are wrong. Jiannu can break through the pass by sneak attacks. He can only say that the defenders of the city are incompetent. Shanhaiguan and Jizhen still have tens of thousands of border troops. The Guanning Army is known as the strongest army in Liaodong. Even if it cannot completely wipe out Jiannu, it will be fine to delay Jiannu for a period of time. The emperor only needs to issue an order for Yuan to supervise the army and let him do his best to delay Jiannu's military front and give Lord Sun time to train the Beijing camp and the royal army. We will not lose this battle." Zhou Shixiong dared not throw cold water on Emperor Chongzhen again. It is necessary to cheer him up desperately. If even the king of a country thinks there is no hope, what will the people below think?

"What are the opinions of Zhou Aiqing?" This previous memorial added another halo to Zhou Shixiong. Emperor Chongzhen believed that Zhou Shixiong's suggestions were broad-minded and profound, so he had great expectations for Zhou Shixiong's suggestions.

"Emperor, no matter whether Jiannu has come 100,000 or 200,000 or more, can they break through the capital?" Zhou Shixiong began to stir up his hard brain and tried to convince Emperor Chongzhen, a military idiot.

"I'm afraid it won't work." Emperor Chongzhen thought about it and said with no certainty.

"It must not work. Emperor, Jiannu is good at fighting in the field and attacking the city, and there is a previous evidence. Ningyuan Jinzhou border towns cannot be broken. The capital is a world-class city. Why should Jiannu break the city? Do you use his brain?" Zhou Shixiong said a little confidently. Emperor Chongzhen was right to think about it. Even the small cities of Ningyuan Jinzhou could not be taken. The capital city was high and there was enough food. I was afraid that he would do anything!

"Zhou Aiqing is right, Jiannu will definitely not be able to break through the capital." Emperor Chongzhen finally agreed with Zhou Shixiong's point of view in a positive tone. Zhou Shixiong would naturally not stop opening the gap, and then said, "Emperor, since Jiannu cannot break through the capital, then what are they entering the pass for?"

This time, Emperor Chongzhen did not hesitate and gave the answer quickly, "Robbery the population and wealth of the Ming Dynasty." Emperor Chongzhen said right. It seems that Huang Taiji used the national power to go south, but in fact it was just an enlarged version of the Grass Valley. The purpose was to rob the food and grass and wealth of the people so that the Later Jin tribe, which was suffering from the severe cold, could survive the winter.

"Emperor, since you know the purpose of Jiannu, it is not difficult to arrange this purpose and keep Jiannu." Zhou Shixiong was changing his concept, changing the panic that he was worried about Jiannu going south with hope that they would continue to go south, and eventually dragged these Jiannu to death near the capital. Emperor Chongzhen followed Zhou Shixiong's thinking and felt it was reasonable. He just had a strange feeling that was hard to explain.

"Zhou Aiqing, do you have any specific ideas?" Unable to understand this strange feeling, Emperor Chongzhen simply stopped thinking about it and asked Zhou Shixiong to give him some practical ideas.

"Emperor, Jiannu broke through Xifengkou and entered the pass, and now he occupied Zunhua and Santun camps. As long as the commander Yuan guarded Jizhen, there is no need to worry that Jiannu would go south. Do they dare to stay away from Xifengkou? Are they not worried that Zunhua and Santun camps were snatched back by Yuan? If the retreat was cut off, no matter how many wealth and population these guards robbed by Jiannu, they would not want to return to Liaodong!" As he said that, even Zhou Shixiong himself felt that Jiannu went south to seek death.

Emperor Chongzhen was infected by Zhou Shixiong. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Zhou Shixiong was right. He actually had a terrible idea in his heart, hoping that Jiannu would go south as soon as possible!

Zhou Shixiong followed his own ideas and continued, "Your Majesty, let's arrange it in two steps. Suppose that Jiannu goes south to the capital and orders Yuan to command the border troops of Shanhaiguan in Jizhen to retake Santun camp and Zunhua, and cut off the way for Jiannu to go home. If Jiannu goes back to rob near Zunhua and Santun camp, he will order Yuan to harass Jiannu and order Lord Sun to integrate the Jingguan and the King's Army as soon as possible to surround Jiannu. At that time, the two sides attack each other, and I see how long Jiannu can resist!"

Zhou Shixiong's talk on paper gave Emperor Chongzhen great courage, and ordered Fang Zhenghua to spread out the map of Northern Zhili to carefully consider Zhou Shixiong's suggestions. The two military white dicks thought about military and national affairs. Strictly speaking, it was nonsense, and they should be seeking death. But both of them fell into a state of excitement, and they were yelling on the map, not thinking that there was anything wrong.

Fortunately, Emperor Chongzhen was a little more pragmatic than Zhou Shixiong, and suddenly he thought of a difficult problem, "Zhou Aiqing, if there were many soldiers who were serving the king, the food and salary would probably be a bit inconvenient!"

Zhou Shixiong then recovered from his excitement and used his brain to find a solution. In fact, just think about major historical online articles or refer to the great achievements of the Red Army, it is easy to find a solution. "The emperor does not need to worry, just a donation order can solve the problem of food and salary."

ps: Zhao Kuo destroyed 400,000 Zhao troops in Changping, and made unification of the Qin Dynasty. What will happen if the pig's feet talk about this time?! Seek a concerted effort!
