The news that 50,000 Ming troops would return to the capital early tomorrow morning soon spread from the palace. When it reached the residences of some ministers, they all looked at it like bystanders, some gloating about the misfortune. Wait and see how Chongzhen will deal with this Zhu Changwu tomorrow.
Do you really think that after winning a battle, you can ignore the Ming Dynasty's ancestral system?
Do you really think that a single warrior can stir up the affairs of the Ming Dynasty?
Over the years, it is not that there are no generals who can fight, but there are also many civil servants who can fight. But what will happen in the end? Weren't you played to death by them?
He was just a seventeen-year-old boy, and he was not in their eyes at all. The current situation of Ming Dynasty is rotten to the core. It is not possible for one or two capable people to appear and reverse the situation and solve the problem.
It's just a flash in the pan. As long as Zhu Changwu is dealt with, Ming Dynasty will eventually be destroyed.
In this unfavorable mood, the whole night passed by with the wind. The next morning, the Zhanghua Gate was opened, and 50,000 Ming troops returned victoriously.
Chongzhen put on his dragon robe and paraded in front of the outer city gate under the protection of Lou Heyang and Li Ruolian.
"Long live the Ming Dynasty, long live the Emperor!"
The shouts were loud and loud, and could not stop being heard.
The sound of his voice reached the sky above the capital for a long time and could not be stopped.
Although most of them were new soldiers, the 50,000 Ming army had been on the battlefield and won battles. Their momentum was completely different from that of ordinary armies.
Especially the two hundred and fifty-two dragon soldiers walking at the front. They were all wearing formal military parade uniforms and holding Type 191 assault semi-automatics. When the shining bayonets were placed high on their shoulders, they gave people a sense of excitement. It is a trend that is indomitable and unstoppable.
It was this team of more than 200 people who led the 50,000 Ming army to kill the enemy like chickens and kill people like weeding, which greatly inspired the soldiers of the Ming army.
The 50,000 Ming army will never forget that when they were surrounded by enemies several times their size, it was the dragon soldiers of more than 200 people who stood in the front line and eliminated them again and again. enemies and protected their safety.
In this battle, the Ming army was full of confidence. Because they believe in the Dragon Soldier more than they believe in themselves. They know that as long as this Dragon Soldier is around, they will have nothing to fear from any enemy.
Even if the number of enemies is five times or even ten times theirs, they will not be afraid at all.
But now, this team of dragon soldiers has become even larger. The two hundred and forty-nine new soldiers are also wearing the formal military parade uniforms of later generations. The only difference is that they are not holding Type 191, but ordinary swords. But even so, no one dares to underestimate them.
These people are the seedlings of the future Dragon Soldiers. With their joining, the Dragon Soldiers will only become stronger. In the future, they will work together to defeat more enemies.
After the dragon soldiers, the second team that came was much larger in number. There were about two thousand people, each wearing a big red flower, riding horses captured from the thieves in this battle.
This team is a meritorious team that performed well in this battle.
No matter what method you use, even if you go to the battlefield to rob them, you must get at least ten pairs of enemy ears before you are qualified to become a member of this team.
Maybe their trophies were picked up by following the dragon soldiers. But it doesn't matter. In the words of General Zhu Changwu, even if you pick it up, being able to pick up more than others is also an ability. At least those timid and timid soldiers dare not do this. .
They "picked up" the trophies this time, so who's to say that they can't really kill the enemy next time and get the real and deserved trophies?
Following the two heroic teams, came the ordinary Ming army team, but there were also many people with "ears" hung on their necks that had been threaded in advance with rope. This was a symbol of their glory and represented their The results of this battle lie.
The farther forward they are, the more ears they have hanging on them. They walk with their chest held high and their heads held high.
On the contrary, the heads of those walking behind will be drooped. Especially in the last team of about four thousand, no one had any ears hanging on them. This made them feel ashamed. At this time, they all wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl in.
Before entering the city, Ji Jinkai, Liang Jun and Hu Yunfeng asked Zhu Changwu for instructions on this issue, and the topic they discussed was one, whether to do it so harshly.
"Why not? What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of destroying the enthusiasm of those cowardly soldiers?" Zhu Changwu asked the three of them with an extremely serious expression.
Zhu Changwu is usually very talkative. As long as it is not during fighting or training, there is no problem if you make a harmless joke with him. But when it comes to business, if anyone dares to disobey his orders or even disobey his opinions, he can always turn against him.
To use Liang Jun’s words to describe their young master, my young master is not among the twelve zodiac signs because he is a donkey. He usually looks good, but if you dare to provoke him, you will kick him with your hoof. You will never do it. There was half a moment of hesitation and consideration.
Facing the serious Zhu Changwu, Ji Jinkai and the others immediately lowered their heads, not daring to say anything. However, Zhu Changwu did not mean to let them go, but continued to ask, "We only took care of the emotions of those soldiers who had no achievements. Then, what about these warriors and warriors who left life and death behind and went to the battlefield to kill the enemy bravely? Who will take care of the hero’s emotions?”
"I'm telling you, and I'm reminding you for the last time, I want good soldiers, soldiers who can fight, and men who are willing to die. I can tolerate such a person, even if he has some minor problems. On the contrary, even if he is obedient, his legs will actively slow down as soon as he goes to the battlefield, and he will always run last. I don't want any "smart people" like this. On the contrary, I will deal with each one when I see him. No mercy.”
"And you, the same goes for leading troops in the future. If someone has the idea of a woman's forbearance, it is not impossible. From now on, he is no longer my person, and anything you do in the future has nothing to do with me. Listen do you understand?"
Ji Jinkai was stunned when he even said something to disown the relationship, but Hu Yunfeng and Liang Jun were frightened.
With a plop, the two boys knelt on the ground directly, "Sir, don't abandon us. We will listen to you in everything from now on. A bad soldier should be exposed and humiliated."
"No, it is to make some people realize their shame and then become brave. And if this does not stimulate them, but they start to break the pot themselves, then it is better not to abandon such soldiers, just send them away and send them to the rear to raise pigs. And if you can't even raise pigs, then send out the army and announce it to his neighbors to see if he will still be shameless and how he will survive in the future. In short, I have no men. You bastard, do you understand?"
"I understand, I understand, sir, please calm down." Liang Jun and Hu Yunfeng nodded in succession.
Zhu Changwu was satisfied and his face became better. But don't think what he said was cruel, in fact, it was for the good of the entire army. Otherwise, when the two sides are fighting a bloody battle, suddenly there are deserters on your side, which will greatly affect morale, and even if it is not done well, it is not impossible that the army will be defeated.
Once the army is defeated, not only one or two people will die, but many people will die.
This is what is called a mouse droppings ruining a pot of soup.
Since such a situation may occur, Zhu Changwu must of course take precautions in advance and will not allow such a thing to happen.
This led to the "earless" Ming army team of four thousand walking at the end. They all lowered their heads at this time, not daring to raise their heads to look at the people in the capital who were standing in the way to welcome them. At this moment, almost all of them regretted why they were so timid, why they had no courage, even the dead people People don’t dare to touch it with their ears, so why is this the result now?
If they had a choice, they wouldn't do it next time, it's such a shame.
The good thing is that they just hate their own incompetence and cowardice, and no one blames their general. Originally, they did it themselves, so why should they blame others?
Most people in this era have simple thoughts, and they don't have so many twists and turns. Even these people dare not blame others because of their timid nature. They will only reflect on themselves, and in such a big dye vat, as long as they are willing to learn and integrate into it, they will one day change themselves.
Zhu Changwu was naturally still wearing his unique camouflage training uniform. When he rode up to Chongzhen, he saluted with a standard military salute and said loudly in front of the people in the city: "Fifty thousand Ming troops defeated the intruders and killed them." There are nearly 100,000 enemies. The enemy leader, Li Thief, has retreated to Taiyuan City, and the capital is temporarily...safe."
"Okay, okay." Chongzhen stood on the city tower. When he heard the words that the capital was temporarily safe, he couldn't help but nodded excitedly.
Six days ago, he was even ready to kill his wife, his daughter, and then commit suicide. And just six days have passed, and the capital has become safe, and there is hope for the Ming Dynasty and ZTE. There is hope.
The 50,000-strong army successfully entered the city, and then marched to various city gates in accordance with the previous military orders, performing their duty of continuing to protect the safety of the capital.
The entry of 50,000 troops into the city also shocked some Xiaoxiao, and the security situation in the capital was improved to a certain extent. But in fact, a torrent is slowly moving on the ground, and a new internal struggle belonging to one's own family has just begun.
After Chongzhen's military parade, he returned to the palace under the protection of the royal guards. Zhu Changwu did not follow him immediately, but led people to the recruiting square in front of Guangning Gate. His sudden appearance attracted a large number of people to watch.
