The court hall was silent, and a needle could be heard falling.Everyone looked at Luo Xin strangely.If these words were put on someone else, he would have been attacked by all the officials for his arrogance.

but……

This incident happened to Luo Xin, and Luo Xin did cut off the head of Alatan Khan, and as he said, at that time he only led 2000 people into the grassland, but now Huang Taiji took the initiative to send to his front.

Old Xu Jie's face was flushed. Just now he had been preaching that he would move the capital to avoid Huang Taiji's sharp edge. Although he said it was for the safety of Emperor Jiajing, his cowardice had been fully exposed.At this time, seeing Luo Xin's calm and breezy appearance, he felt even more ugly.At this moment, all the ministers also remembered Xu Jie's suggestion just now, and couldn't help but secretly looked at him, which made Xu Jie feel even more embarrassed.Now he is ashamed and hard to get into the sheath, his expression changed and he said:
"Luo Xin, have you considered His Majesty? You are putting His Majesty in danger!"

Luo Xin drooped his eyelids and ignored Xu Jie at all.Xu Jie was short of breath, pointed at Luo Xin and said tremblingly:
"you you you……"

But he couldn't continue talking, Luo Xin drooped his eyelids and said nothing, which doesn't mean others didn't speak, so Gao Gong immediately said:

"Xu Huating, why did Luo Xin put His Majesty in danger? Don't think that you are incompetent and unable to defend the capital, just think that others are just as incompetent as you. With Luo Xin here, the capital is naturally as solid as gold. What is there to worry about? "

"Military strategists are dangerous places, you can guarantee that Luo Xin will be able to defend the capital?" Xu Jie retorted.

"I can't guarantee it!" Gao Gong said lightly: "But you can guarantee that Huang Taiji won't be chasing after you move the capital? In the future, when Nanjing is conquered, where will you move the capital?"

"I……"

"Crack!" Emperor Jiajing slapped the table, both Xu Jie and Gao Gong closed their mouths, and Emperor Jiajing fixed his eyes on Luodao:
"Luo Qing, are you sure?"

Luo Xin thought about it for a while, and a bit of embarrassment appeared on his face. Seeing the embarrassment on Luo Xin's face, Emperor Jiajing and all the officials trembled in their hearts, even Xu Jie, who was at odds with Luo Xin, was also trembling. shake.Xu Jie was not confused, he knew that Luo Xin would play the role of the mainstay no matter whether it was to stick to it or move the capital, because in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, no one knew soldiers better than him, so he immediately said urgently:

"Luo Xin, could it be that you were talking nonsense just now?"

Emperor Jiajing looked at Luo Xin with a trace of panic, and said in a concentrated voice: "Luo Qing, if you have something to say, just say it."

Luo Xin said softly: "Your Majesty, if you want to cut off Huang Taiji's head, I really don't have any confidence, it depends on the opportunity."

"Huh..." Emperor Jiajing let out a long breath, with a look of dumbfounding on his face and said: "Who told you to cut off Huang Taiji's head. I ask you if you can hold on to the capital? It doesn't have to be long, as long as Persevere until winter, Huang Taiji will retreat."

Luo Xin said with a relaxed look on his face, "That's no problem."

Seeing Luo Xin's easy answer, Emperor Jiajing and the officials felt relieved for a while.Emperor Jiajing also made up his mind and raised his voice:
"Declared the decree, named Luo Xin as the Privy Councilor and the official of Zhongshushe. Overview of the war with the northern grasslands, and restraint in all northern military affairs."

Luo's heart skipped a beat, and the Privy Council accepted the decree. Although he is a fifth-rank official, he is only a temporary official and will be taken back after the war is over.But Zhongshusheren is different. This is a normal official position and will not be taken back. He is also a fifth-rank official. He is responsible for drafting edicts for the emperor. He is an official who can see the emperor at any time. , is not high, but the location is extremely special.

You want to!
Being able to see the emperor anytime, isn't that special enough?

Isn't that enviable enough?
In particular, Luo Xin was not as good as the court, he became the fifth rank in less than a year, and his promotion was so fast, it can be said that it is rare in all ages, and it is unprecedented in Ming Dynasty.

In fact, Luo Xin's heart was not as relaxed as it appeared on the surface. He knew that this was an extremely severe test for him, and he was not sure whether he could hold the capital.But at this time, he had to stand up.He couldn't just watch Emperor Jiajing move the capital, and then Daming was massacred by Huang Taiji all the way, and finally formed the trend of massacring the country.Knowing how heavy the burden was on him, he calmed down and knelt down to thank him.

After receiving the decree to thank Luo Xin, he first went to the Ministry of Officials, handed over the procedures, received the official uniform and official seal, etc., and then went to the Ministry of War, and then the Minister of the Ministry of War personally led Luo Xin to the three major battalions guarding the capital.This communication was busy, Rao was anxious in his heart, so he speeded up the process, and it was noon.Luo Xin refused to stay in the three camps for dinner. He wanted to go home and inform his family. From tomorrow onwards, he would have board and lodging in the three camps. Before Huang Taiji retreated, he might not have much time to go home.

The so-called three major battalions are because the Ming Dynasty did not have an imperial army.In the Ming Dynasty, the Weisuo system was popular, both at the local and central levels, and the Jingwei at the central level was the key point, gathering elites from all over the country. It was the direct line of troops of Zhu Yuanzhang who founded the country and had a strong combat effectiveness. Hou Jingwei participated in Zhu Di’s Northern Expedition War, with good results.However, during the period of Ming Yingzong, hundreds of thousands of Jingwei elites participated in the "Personal Conquest", and they were completely lost in the civil fort change. The emperor was arrested, and many civil servants and generals were killed and injured.The Jingwei system was basically abandoned.Jingwei is a kind of appellation, and its essence is the same as that of the Forbidden Army of previous dynasties. The emperor's direct army, the elite of the whole country, is the main force for attacking and fighting. The equipment is the best, and its combat effectiveness is also very strong.After the Jingwei troops were basically disabled in the Ming Dynasty, the three major battalions were re-established, and they were responsible for the work of the original Jingwei.

Three battalions, including the Fifth Army Battalion, the Three Thousand Battalion and the Shenji Battalion.Emperor Jiajing later renamed Sanqianying as Shenshuying.

The news of the collapse of Datong City was just announced in the capital, causing the people in the city to panic, and some people even fled the capital.All of a sudden the whole capital calmed down.

Luo Xin has been a myth by the people of Ming Dynasty, and Alatan Khan who bullied Daming all his life was killed by Luo Xin. Could it be that Luo Xin can't cure Alatan Khan's son?

This statement spread throughout the capital in just an instant. In fact, Luo Xin arranged for people from the Zhongxing Society to spread the statement, in order to stabilize the people in the capital.Otherwise, once there is chaos inside the capital, there is no need to fight Huang Taiji.
