"The Ming Dynasty will last forever, and the sun, moon, mountains and rivers will last forever!"
The emperor was in high spirits in front of victory. The ministers felt the same and knelt down in unison.
"Long live my emperor, long live my emperor!"
It's a pity that there are not many people here.
"Pass the decree, officials of the fourth rank and above in the capital will enter the palace tomorrow afternoon!"
Although there is no real success in the complex, it seems that there is no need to be so excited?
In fact, this is not the case. Compared with the Battle of Huamachi, this time it was the generals of the Ming Dynasty who led their troops into the grassland and won!
It was a landmark event that a Central Plains dynasty could organize an army of this size and win a battle in such a place.
I have never heard anyone say that Shengshi is called Shengshi because he beats the enemy away at the door of his home.
There is a huge difference in this.
From the eleventh year of Hongzhi to the present, it can be said that he has not worked hard. After such a long time and so much effort, although it is still not as powerful as the military in the early years of this dynasty.
But at least he can organize 20,000 elite cavalry and find qualified generals among generals to command them! You can have the courage to face the Tatar cavalry on the grassland!
There is such a force,
At least it cannot be said that the Ming Dynasty during this period was weak!
The emperor was so happy this time and encountered another great victory. The civil servants could also feel the pain in their chests swept away.
"At the beginning of His Majesty's ascension to power, he won two great victories in Huamachi and Right Wing Mongolia. This was a grand event that we have not seen in many years in the Ming Dynasty. I would like to congratulate His Majesty and congratulate the Ming Dynasty!"
Mr. Li Ge took the lead. Although his voice was hoarse, he was extremely passionate.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty! Congratulations to the Ming Dynasty!"
At this time, Zhu Houzhao had returned to the Qianqing Palace. He looked at the winning list on the Dragon Eucalyptus. He took it out and put it together with the victory report and said: "In front are my soldiers sleeping in the grassland and fighting bloody battles. In the rear is a group of soldiers. Helping corrupt officials to eat fishy meals, pecking away rotten food, and being extravagant and lustful! These people want to spare his life? What a joke, I spared them. When the court has no money and food, and the army has no military supplies, the Tatars will spare the Ming Dynasty. Warrior?!"
The front is tight, the rear is tight!
It's not noticeable when you look at them individually, but when put together they are really extremely dazzling.
Perhaps it was an illusion, but the emperor, who was once again victorious, seemed to have greater authority. His words were as firm as iron, leaving no room for rebuttal.
Wow!
Zhu Houzhao threw the roster into Liu Jin's hands.
"According to the agreement, Qiu Hou Wenzhan! Kill them and save a few grains of food for the soldiers!"
The matter of deciding the roster is probably like this. No one in the Ming Dynasty has the ability to save the lives of Zou Cheng and others.
At this time, three young soldiers were kneeling in the hall. Their faces were all chapped and their skins were dark, which were all traces of marching in the wild.
Listening to the emperor's words, they could feel the rumors about Emperor Zhengde's emphasis on martial arts. Especially since they had all achieved military exploits, the expectations in their hearts naturally increased.
Zhu Houzhao focused his attention on them.
"The victory report said that the Ming army killed more than a thousand enemies, including the young prince and his second son, and also persuaded the leader of the right wing of Mongolia Yongshebu Yibula to surrender. Such results are shocking to the world. If you look into the past, you don't know how long it will take. Come on. Tell me carefully, what happened to these Mongolians who persuaded them to surrender?"
The red-robed young general in front of the king said in a high-pitched voice, "Your Majesty! The words in the victory report are true. This time, our Ming cavalry went on an expedition of more than a thousand miles. First, they made a surprise attack on the Yongxie Buwanhu tribe, and happened to meet the little Mongolian prince. His son was sent to the right wing as a farmer. This man was captured by our army and later killed by Yibula himself. Therefore, the Yongxiebu tribe had no choice but to surrender!
General Zhou, the commander-in-chief, has led his triumphant army back to Datong. He has ordered the last general to report his victory under the stars at night, and asked for the Holy Will. Should he bring the surrendered general back to the capital and offer him as a prisoner? ! "
There are still six to seven thousand men and horses in Yi Bu La. With so many soldiers, Zhou Shangwen would not dare to lead them to the capital in a daze.
So when they arrived in Datong, they stopped their troops. Naturally, no one left, and they kept the tiger and wolf troops just in case.
Then he sent people back to Beijing to report the victory.
If the journey from Datong to the capital is eight hundred miles, it will only take two or three days.
In addition, bringing the enemy back by beating him was something that could not be discussed in the court and would have to be debated for a period of time, so it was carefully considered by the emperor and the ministers in the court.
As for Zhou Shangwen, he will not accept the emperor's orders in the future, but at this time, he just waits for what the imperial edict says.
As for the specific situation, he had already written it down clearly in the victory report, exactly.
The fact was just as he expected,
The people in Qianqing Palace were caught off guard. If they won the war, they would just be rewarded according to the old rules, and there was also a matter of asking for marriage.
These matters must be decided by the emperor himself.
Zhu Houzhao read the good news again. He didn't care about marrying a wife. The key was the leader of the right-wing tribe of ten thousand households.
The Ming Dynasty also used the powerful military force of the "Duoyan Three Guards".
Zhu Di Jingnan also benefited a lot from it.
But later the Three Duoyan Guards showed signs of rebellion. When Zhu Di went to conquer the Tatars in the north, he discovered that there were shadows of the Three Duoyan Guards in the Mongolian army. Later, the Three Duoyan Guards even attacked the Ming Dynasty to station in pasture lands.
So it is impossible to say that there is no doubt at all about these surrenders.
However, how the Ming court treated Yongshebu actually determined the pattern of left and right Mongolia.
If Yibula is tricked and killed by the Ming court, Mongolia's unity will inevitably be strengthened from the outside, and no one will oppose the little prince anymore.
On the contrary, with Yongxiebu, you can explore Tumut and Ordos and play an 'offshore balancing hand'.
Times have changed,
Although they are not of my race, their minds must be different, but the use of troops and running a country are inherently unpredictable. If there is a biggest taboo, it is to use blind principles and blind methods.
"Since you have surrendered, there is no need to offer prisoners." Zhu Houzhao rubbed his fingers and said thoughtfully: "In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with what Zhou Shangwen asked me to do. What I said is true. As for this You better bring him to the capital, I want to see him."
The soldiers in the palace hesitated and then asked, "Your Majesty, is it the Holy Will not to assassinate anyone to enter the capital, or is it to allow him to bring his subordinates with him?"
"Isn't it okay to ask?"
The soldiers were frightened. They all said that the emperor was extremely smart and had all kinds of clever plans. It was so true!
"Your Majesty, yes."
Zhu Houzhao was a little disdainful. He did things in a sticky manner and was not straightforward at all. He thought he was some kind of leader. No wonder he couldn't make a name for himself, and in the end he was beaten to pieces by Dayan Khan.
If you surrender, just surrender, why should you still worry about whether to take others with you? What can I do if I take someone with me? Can you fly out after entering the Great Wall?
"It's a question from a villain." The emperor waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "Let him go. Or if he doesn't dare to come, there's no need to force him!"
As soon as the emperor said this, all the important ministers in the palace felt that this magnanimity was much higher than that of his nonchalant words. That means you can do whatever you want, I'll take it.
There is such a thing as the emperor's magnanimity. Sometimes it sounds mysterious, but it actually exists.
And Zhu Houzhao wanted to show these foreigners what it would be like to have a wise king in the Central Plains Dynasty!
