    On March 21st, Wu Liehou Ding Yunyi entered Shandong with his troops.

    At this time, the capital city was captured and the news of Emperor Chongzhen¡¯s death had come. Wu Lie Hou Ding Yunyi led all the soldiers of the Huben Guard to kneel down in the direction of the capital city and burst into tears. Then the whole army fell silent.

    Ding Yunyi immediately ordered the entire army to pay tribute to His Majesty Chongzhen, cut down the flags, and vow to avenge His Majesty!

    All the Tiger Guard soldiers know that they currently have only one enemy: the bandit army!

    The Tiger Guards marched very fast. They were under the banner of "King of Diligence". Wherever they went, officials from all over the country were afraid of the reputation of the Tiger Guards and welcomed them without any hindrance.

    When they arrived in Shandong, the capital was captured and the news of Chongzhen's death prompted Ding Yunyi to issue an order for the Huben Guards to temporarily stop their advance.

    March 22, Chapter 553: King Wu Lie¡ª¡ªDing Yunyi!  , Li Zicheng¡¯s envoy has arrived!

    It came too fast. On the 19th, Li Zicheng captured the capital, and on the 22nd, his envoys found Hu Benwei.

    In fact, the envoy was not sent by Li Zicheng, but by his very important counselor Li Yan!

    Li Yan actually came in person!

    This was something Ding Yunyi had not expected before.

    "Wu Liehou marched in so fast." When he saw Ding Yunyi, Li Yan, who had never met him before, smiled like an old friend: "Our Dashun army just captured the capital, and Wu Liehou had already arrived in Shandong, just like  I know that the capital will be captured by my Dashun army sooner or later."

    Ding Yunyi had no expression at all on his face: "Ding Yunyi, the Marquis of Wu Lie, has been ordered to serve the king, and all the soldiers of the Huben Guards have been working day and night, and they dare not show any slights!"

    Li Yan glanced at Ding Yunyi, who was wearing mourning all over his body: "Zhu Youjian is dead."

    "I know." Ding Yunyi nodded silently.

    "Then what else are you following?" Li Yan sighed softly: "Marquis Wu Lie, I know you are a very loyal minister, but have loyal ministers been rewarded since ancient times? You have established such a great mission for the Ming Dynasty.  With so much credit, aren¡¯t you also jealous of your emperor? Wu Liehou, the sky has changed, and now the king of Wulie¡ªDing Yunyi!¡±

    "The sky is still the sky of the Ming Dynasty! The earth is still the land of the Ming Dynasty! As long as I am here, the sky will not be blocked by the bandit army!" Ding Yunyi's answer was decisive.

    Li Yan seemed to have known what he would say: "I admire Wu Liehou's loyalty. But now that the Ming Dynasty is gone, who can you continue to be loyal to? The war has been going on for too long. Could it be that Wu Lie  Do you still want to continue the war? Now that the world is in ruins and the people are in dire straits, the top priority is to stop fighting and restore people's livelihood. I heard that Wu Liehou's kindness spread all over the world. In the past, when natural disasters occurred, Wu Liehou used remote places in Taiwan to recruit victims.  , The disaster victims everywhere are grateful. Is it possible that now, Wu Liehou continues to let the people be in war? "

    Ding Yunyi smiled faintly: "The situation back then was different from now. Li Yan, do you know who I am? I am Wu Liehou of the Ming Dynasty, and I am the general soldier of Fujian in the Ming Dynasty. When the Ming Dynasty is in trouble, I am duty-bound. Now Your Majesty  Although I am gone, Marquis Wulie is still here, and I will not have any regrets even if I am shattered into pieces.¡±

    "Marquis Wu Lie, let me tell you straight to the point." Li Yan composed himself: "I'm here to persuade you to surrender. Although your Huben Guards are among the best in the world, do you want to fight against my Dashun Army with just one Huben Guards? You don't have it.  Any possibility of success. If you are willing to submit to me Dashun, we can agree to whatever conditions you want!"

    "I want His Majesty to be resurrected, and I want you all to withdraw from the capital. Will you agree?" Ding Yunyi said coldly.

    Just when Li Yan was about to persuade him again, Jiang Qi suddenly rushed in. When he saw Ding Yunyi, he burst into tears: "Master Hou, Master, Master is back!"

    Ding Yunyi stood up with a bang, no longer caring about Li Yan, and rushed out in a few steps.

    At this time, the generals of the Huben Guards outside had already come out from each camp. They saw Duan San'er helping a beggar-like man from a horse. If you didn't look carefully, who would have thought that he was elegant and elegant.  Ding Yuanzhao?

    "Father!" Ding Yunyi stepped forward quickly and supported Ding Yuanzhao: "Yun Yi is unfilial and has made his father suffer. Please be responsible for punishing Yun Yi!"

    On the other hand, the Ding family sisters, who had just arrived at the Hubenwei barracks, also came out one after another. When they saw their father escaping safely, they all burst into tears.

    Ding Yuanzhao glanced at his son, and suddenly slapped Ding Yunyi hard on the face.

    This slap was so clear and loud that everyone was stunned.  Although it is natural for a father to beat his son, the one who was beaten was Wu Liehou Ding Yunyi!

      "Beast, beast!" Ding Yuanzhao said in a trembling voice: "Hundreds of thousands of thieves are besieging the capital. Where are you, beast? Your Majesty issued the Qinwang Order, where are you, beast? When His Majesty died for the country heroically, you, beast  where!"

    "Father!" Ding Yunyi cried loudly: "The child did not receive the order from King Qin. Yun Yi knew that the bandit army was approaching the capital, so he sent troops without permission regardless of the lack of imperial edict! But Yun Yi did not expect that the capital would be broken so quickly.  , Yun Yi traveled day and night and it was too late!"

    "Father." The Ding sisters cried and came to their father: "Xiang Wen was really traveling day and night. After he learned that His Majesty was martyred for his country, he ordered the entire army to wear filial piety!"

    Ding Yuanzhao¡¯s eyes fell on Ding Yunyi and the Tiger Guard soldiers. Yes, they were all wearing Xiaona for His Majesty the Emperor!

    In an instant, Ding Yuanzhao burst into tears.  He thought of His Majesty Chongzhen, Gui Bo, Xu Dezhong, Zhou Xi, and the countless people of the Ming Dynasty who died generously on the day the city was destroyed.

    He wiped his tears and suddenly said loudly: "Marquis Wu Lie, General of the Fujian Army, General Hussars, and Supreme Protector Ding Yunyi take the order!"

    "Your Majesty, Ding Yunyi, accepts the order!" Ding Yunyi also held back his tears and knelt on the ground with all the Huben guards.

    Ding Yuanzhao took out the imperial edict that he regarded as a treasure from his arms. When he slowly opened it, he was startled for a moment. This imperial edict was so unlikeable. He hesitated and read it out slowly.  : "Xiang Wen, the bandit army is about to break the city. I have decided to die for my country. But the Ming Dynasty is still there, and you Wu Liehou and Hu Benwei are still there, so my country will not be destroyed. I know you.  You have made a lot of achievements in the past and suffered a lot of grievances. You have a knot in your heart towards me, but now my death can't untie the knot in your heart."

    "It's untied, it's untied, Your Majesty, the knot in my heart is really untied this time!" Ding Yunyi murmured with trembling lips. At this moment, his tears really flowed down.

    Ding Yuanzhao was already bursting into tears, and he read as hard as he could: "Xiang Wen, after much thought, there are only two people who can save the Ming Dynasty, one is Wu Sangui, and the other is you, Ding Yunyi. Wu Sangui owes me a lot.  Too many, I'm afraid the soldiers have no intention of fighting anymore, and I don't know why I don't always trust Wu Sangui, so I don't know if he will continue to be loyal to me. Daming, but you are different. Wang Chengen once treated me  I have said that you are definitely not a traitor, your heart is loyal, and you are the only one who can save the Ming Dynasty. I still can't forget the scene when you and I met, so I put all my hope in it.  Come to the capital with your Tiger Guards and help me drive out those traitors, I beg you!"

    "Your Majesty!" Ding Yunyi's tears couldn't help but flow. He had never cried like this before: "I know, I will drive those traitors out of the capital and crush them to ashes!"

    Li Yan listened silently in the military camp behind. At this time, he already knew that there was nothing he could do to change Wu Liehou Ding Yunyi's mind.

    At this time, Ding Yuanzhao's voice suddenly rose: "I will propose you as the Crown Prince and Grand Master, and grant you the title of General Dragon and Tiger. You will be honored with the title of Youzhu Kingdom, the Marshal of the Army of the Jin Dynasty, and the title of General of Rebellion. I will grant you the title of King with a different surname.  King Wu Lie! Xiang Wena, you are the king, this is the only thing I can give you, Daming, I will leave it to you!"

    The whole place was silent.

    King Wu Lie¡ª¡ªDing Yunyi!

    "Ding Yunyi, aren't you still grateful?" Ding Yuanzhao's majestic voice sounded.

    "My minister, Ding Yunyi, accepts the decree and expresses his gratitude. Long live, long live, long live the Ming Dynasty!"

    What he said was long live the Ming Dynasty, long live the Ming Dynasty, long live the Ming Dynasty!

    Your Majesty is no longer here, but - Ming Dynasty is still here!

    Ding Yunyi stood up, took the imperial edict, and then looked around at the soldiers of the three armies.

    ¡°Ming Dynasty¡ª¡ªLong live! Long live! Long live!!! King Wu Lie¡ª¡ªMighty! Mighty!! Mighty!!!¡±

    That was the answer of the Huben Guards soldiers!

    Ding Yunyi took a deep breath, and then said word by word: "Raise the flag!"

    Two huge flags were raised. One was given to the Tiger Guards by Emperor Chongzhen himself: The brave and loyal Tiger Guards!

    There is also a big flag with eight big words written on it: Fight to the death, vow to avenge national humiliation!

    Looking at these two big flags, Ding Yuanzhao also let out a long breath. At this moment, he finally understood what his son was thinking.  My son, I have never betrayed Daming!  My son, I have long been prepared to avenge my shame!

    "Now I am ordered by His Majesty to retake the capital and avenge the country's humiliation!" Ding Yunyi's voice rang in the ears of every soldier: "I have nothing else to say, I just want to tell you??I, Ding Yunyi, am a minister of the Ming Dynasty in life, and a ghost of the Ming Dynasty in death!  Fight to the death and bring national humiliation to the country!  !  "

    "Fight to the death to avenge the country's humiliation!"

    The cries of hundreds of thousands of soldiers are enough to make the earth tremble!

    Ding Yunyi turned around and waved to Li Yan at the military camp. Li Yan came to him somewhat numbly.  Ding Yunyi pointed at the two big flags flying in the wind: "Do you need me to say anything else?"

    Li Yan shook his head. He didn¡¯t need Ding Yunyi to say anything more. Standing in front of him was King Wu Lie, the King Wu Lie of the Ming Dynasty. He was a King Wu Lie who had become sworn in with the Dashun Army.

    Ding Yunyi became King Wu Lie, and the news of Chongzhen's death spread, making the world sad.  At this time, Zhang Pu and the scholars from Jiangnan also came to Ding Yunyi's army day and night.

    When these scholars saw Ding Yunyi, they burst into tears, mourning the fall of the capital and mourning the martyrdom of His Majesty.

    Ding Yunyi comforted them with kind words and asked the scholars to sit down. Zhang Pu held back his tears and said: "If your majesty has died for the country, the first priority is to establish a new emperor. Then ask Wu Liebo to send troops to retake the capital and avenge the national humiliation."  !¡±

    "The national humiliation must be overthrown!" Ding Yunyi replied without hesitation: "The new emperor must also be established, but not now, but after retaking the capital!"

    Zhang Pu had unconditional trust in Ding Yunyi. He also believed that there was no one else but Ding Yunyi who could avenge the country's humiliation: "What King Wu Lie said is very reasonable. Please wait with peace of mind. Once the capital is captured, King Wu Lie will definitely  Make your own arrangements.¡±

    Ding Yunyi asked people to settle down these scholars first, leaving only Zhang Pu.  When Zhang Pu saw that there was no one else in the military camp, he asked: "King Wu Lie must have already chosen a candidate for the new emperor, right?"

    Ding Yunyi smiled: "What do you think, Mr. Ximing?"

    "Of course, I will choose one of His Majesty's princes." Zhang Pu had already thought about it on the way here: "In case, I said, if anything happens to the princes, some people say that Prince Fu's son seems to be able to inherit the throne.  ¡±

    "Zhu Yousong?" Ding Yunyi seemed to be very disdainful when he mentioned this name.

    The question of who will inherit the throne raised by Zhang Pu is indeed more difficult.

    Ding Yunyi knew very well that after Chongzhen died for his country, this was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for the Ming Dynasty ministers from all over the country.  At this point, the political role of Nanjing, which was originally a foil, became highlighted.  Obviously, the first task before the remaining ministers was to support the new king and organize the political power.  Speaking of close blood, King Fu, King Gui and King Hui are the best choices.  And because King Fu was the oldest among the three vassals, he also ran around like a headless fly and wandered around Nanjing.  Compared with the other two vassal kings who were far away in Guangxi, the one who was near the water and the tower naturally got the moon first.  However, things are not that simple.  Some Donglin Party members among the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River firmly opposed it based on their narrow self-interest and in the name of King Fu's mediocrity.  But the secret behind it can be traced back to the Tianqi Dynasty. In order to oppose the succession of King Fu and his mother Zheng Guifei from intervening in politics, the Donglin Party members had formed an indissoluble feud with the Fu clan.  In order to prevent Zhu Yousong from taking the opportunity to retaliate after he ascended the throne.  Led by Qian Qianyi, the leader of Donglin, in the name of establishing a virtuous person, an inexplicable successor - King Lu was launched with great fanfare.

    King Lu has a remote bloodline, so he naturally lacks a reason to succeed.  But his so-called virtuous reputation has won the sympathy and support of many people.  In fact, regardless of whether King Lu was truly virtuous, the eldest son inheritance system had its own practical considerations.  The government of the Ming Dynasty was governed by the cabinet. Even if the emperor was incompetent, responsible ministers could still maintain the normal operation of the political institutions.  Considering the situation, all the ministers in the capital need is a formal spiritual leader.  But it does not necessarily have to be a wise king with great talents and strategies.

    Now, in the name of establishing a virtuous person, we are leaving King Fu behind.  The Ming Dynasty was scattered all over the country, and there were many dragon sons and grandsons who were famous, ambitious and talented.  Since King Lu can be established, who cannot be established?

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUTOUT off, they can't demand nationwide universal suffrage, but there are always a large number of careerists who take advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of their support and gain credit.

    While the support meeting in Nanjing was getting lively, Zhu Yousong, who was far away in Huai'an, panicked.  As one of the three most popular candidates, no one asked him to deliver a campaign speech or policy platform.  There are only a few people who come to show their loyalty and engage in speculation.  All this made Zhu Yousong feel that the situation was not good.  In fact, Shi Kefa, Ma Shiying and other important ministers of the Southern Ming Dynasty regarded the emperor they selected and prepared to support as an earthen puppet from the beginning.  No matter who is the king, the important thing is that it will not hinder them from grasping the power in their hands.  From the bottom of my heart, the once majestic emperor was nothing more than a symbol and a decoration to these important ministers.  Shi Kefa pointed out that among the seven reasons why the King of Fu could not be established, one of them was "there is a need for interference".

    Yes, it is an emperor who is "unreasonable to interfere" that important ministers are taboo about.  To everyone's surprise, in everyone's opinion, the brain is full ofThe obese, confused and mediocre Zhu Yousong actually made a clever move and defeated the Gungun princes in Nanjing who thought they had a plan.

    Zhu Yousong was afraid that he would not be able to stand, so he summoned Gao Jie, the commander-in-chief who fled south, to conspire with Huang Degong and Liu Liangzuo to support him.  Liu Zeqing was a cunning man. He first supported Lu's proposal, but when his troops were defeated, he changed his plan and followed Jie and others.

    Zhu Yousong actually understood the truth that political power comes from the barrel of a gun, and directly asked the generals of the three towns in the north of the Yangtze River for help.

    Gao Jie, Huang Degong himself was originally an ambitious wandering warlord. When he saw that there was a big business to be done with "fixed strategy and support", it was really a good opportunity to make huge profits without capital.  So they hit it off and got rid of their immediate boss, Fengyang Governor Ma Shiying, who was in secret discussions with Shi Kefa.  Became the hero of decision-making.  When the news reached Nanjing, everyone was shocked.  Ma Shiying was old in the officialdom. When he saw that his generals were rebelling, it was useless to fight.  He quickly expressed his feelings to Zhu Yousong and became the first civil servant in Conglong.  Shi Kefa was kept in the dark at first and refused to accept the criticism. In a letter to Ma Shiying, he scolded Zhu Yousong for being confused.  Unexpectedly, it became a handle that fell into the hands of others.  Immediately, Ma Shiying led the army to escort Zhu Yousong to Pukou, Nanjing with murderous intent.  The situation has been decided, and the remorseful Shi Kefa and the Donglin Party members have no choice but to accept this reality.

    Zhu Yousong turned to the warlords of the three towns for support, which had a major impact on the subsequent changes in the situation.  The most direct effect is to enable him to fulfill his wish and successfully ascend to the throne of the Supreme.  As for the indirect impact, the towns in the north of the Yangtze River regarded themselves as "the emperor's benefactor" and "the hero of Conglong". No one in Nanjing, from the emperor to the important ministers, could control this domineering army.  This was the beginning of the Nanming warlord Xun Zhen's unstoppable power.  In fact, Gao Jie, Huang Degong, Liu Liangzuo, etc. were all brave men in the army. Their subordinates had their own agendas, but there were many good generals and warriors.

    "If Zhu Yousong had a little bit of the political experience of his ancestors Taizu and Chengzu, as long as he controlled it properly, he could exert influence and make the three towns for his own use when relying on the support of the three towns.  It's a pity that Zhu Yousong inherited Nai's father's broad-mindedness and fat body, but did not inherit Naizu's talent and military strategy.  Relying on the help of Sanzhen to obtain the throne was considered his extraordinary performance. He was eager to become emperor, so he offered a high price from the beginning and devalued himself.

    The three towns also saw clearly that the man who "carried heaven's destiny" was Adou.  From then on, he never cared about his authority again.

    But at this time, Ding Yunyi already has a new emperor candidate in mind!  !  !  !
