"The third thing is that the vassal kings from all over the country are coming to Beijing!"
Boom...
Chongzhen's words were like thousands of thunderbolts exploding in the minds of the generals, and their faces were full of horror.
The emperor is going to take action against the clan!
After the horror, it turned into surprise.
The clan's harm has been harming the Ming Dynasty for many years. The high annual salary, annexed land, fish and meat people, etc. have made the people of the world disgusted.
It can be said that the clan is a fatal sore on the Ming Dynasty, which will eventually drag the Ming Dynasty to death.
After the shock, Sun Chengzong stabilized his mind and said softly: "Your Majesty, for what reason are you summoned?"
"Do I need a reason to summon the vassal king?"
Chongzhen said lightly, but he could not hide the domineering and iron-bloodedness in his words.
This domineering and confidence comes from the military exploits of the Longjingguan siege and the grassland battle. If these vassal kings cooperate, that's all. If they don't, don't blame him for carrying out a cleansing regardless of the royal family's face.
"Forget it, let's just use it as a reason to participate in the 100-day ceremony of my eldest son!"
"That's enough!"
Sun Chengzong smiled, this reason is definitely enough.
The Ming Dynasty Hui Dian clearly stipulates that when a prince is born in the third month, when the Imperial Heavenly Supervisor chooses to name him and performs auspicious rituals, the Hanlin Academy records the royal family name and gives it to the emperor.
Only the child whose name is given and entered in the jade certificate can be called a prince.
It is definitely a big deal for the emperor's eldest son to name the possible new emperor in the future.
"It is estimated that it will take half a month for the army to return to the court. Let Yuan Ke immediately arrange for people to take the imperial edict to wait for the vassal kings in various places. On April 15th, he will directly go to the palaces of each vassal to deliver the edict!"
"I'll do it now!"
Sun Chengzong left in a hurry, and half an hour later, several Jin Yiwei who accompanied the army led dozens of Tumote's people towards the towns of Datong and Xuanfu.
Because before entering the grassland, a small flag sergeant was set up every twenty miles to deliver messages, but now it can be used to expedite the delivery of messages for six hundred miles.
"Great victory!"
"Victory on the grassland!"
…
The person delivering the message shouted loudly while galloping on his horse.
The sergeants who were transporting supplies along the way all cheered when they heard this, and their tired bodies were rejuvenated at this moment.
Within a day and a half, the news was conveyed from the grassland to the Xuan Mansion. Mangui, who was staring at the grassland on the city wall, suddenly heard the sound of victory and immediately ordered the city gates to be opened.
When the city gate opened, the person delivering the message arrived at the city gate at the same time as Mangui.
The messenger jumped off his horse and handed the package on his back to the postman at the city gate. The postman took the box and jumped on his horse and galloped away, repeating the victory loudly.
"My lord, this is a letter from Mr. Sun Ge!"
The messenger took out another letter, and Man Gui snatched it and quickly read it. In just a few breaths, Man Gui's pupils tightened and his whole body became tense.
The hand holding the letter trembled, and his breathing became rapid.
"Sir, what's wrong with you?"
"Sir, what happened? But what happened on the front line?"
"Lord Commander-in-Chief, what does a great victory mean?"
…
"Hahaha...Okay, okay!"
"Relieve your anger, so relieved!"
The generals' inquiries were met with Mangui's laughter, which was extremely rough and heroic.
"It is indeed the news of His Majesty's personal battle report. Let me take a look and tell you which one first!"
"Well, that's it. Let's digest it first!"
"Hong Chengchou, the governor of the three sides, commanded the four towns. With the cooperation of General Heiyunlong and Hexi Cavalry Admiral Fang Zhenghua, he completely crippled the Ordos tribe, beheaded more than 10,000 people, and captured Ordos Great Khan Sa Nang and the leaders of the tribes alive!"
quiet!
Extremely quiet!
All the soldiers at the city gate were stunned, their mouths opened wide, and their eyes full of shock and disbelief.
Seeing the shocked expressions of the generals, Man Gui shook his head. If he told them the remaining battle reports, would his jaw drop?
"As a military general, if the mountain collapses and remains unchanged, look at you, hey..."
"You're a bunch of bastards. I've beaten you so many times in Liaodong, but you haven't seen blood a few times. It would be weird if you can still calm down!"
Man Gui muttered a few words to himself, gave up the plan of reporting the remaining battle reports together, and left with three steps, singing an unknown song in his mouth, very happy.
After he walked for a while, the generals at the city gate slowly woke up and looked at each other.
"The General of the Army said that the Ordos tribe was crippled and more than 10,000 people were beheaded, while their great khan and leaders of the tribes were captured alive?"
"No, that's right, that's what I heard!"
"This, how is this possible? It shouldn't be!"
"Asshole, what should and shouldn't be done? Isn't it good that our army won a great victory?"
"No...I didn't mean that. Your Majesty personally led the army from Xuanfu. If he wanted to attack Ordos, he would definitely have to pass through the territory of Guihua City and then cross the Yellow River. But there were tens of thousands of Chahar Lindan Khan's troops there. !”
"I'll go... you're right. What's going on? Didn't His Majesty say he was going to Chahar when he was going to conquer it? Why did he go to Ordos?"
"Your Majesty, this is a strategy to attack the east and attack the west. It is a good strategy to confuse the enemy!"
"Go away, you don't understand and don't talk nonsense. This is obviously a beating on a child on a rainy day. It's just idle time. First, beat the weak ones to train and test the water, and then go to fight Chahar."
"No, the Commander-in-Chief said to tell us one thing first and let us digest it. Is there any other battle report?"
"Or, other battle reports are more exciting than this one?"
hiss……
hiss……
As soon as these words came out, there was a continuous sound of gasps for several meters around the city entrance.
Every soldier's scalp was numb, his breathing was rapid, and he was holding on to his weapon hard, but he still suppressed the cheers.
They dare not imagine that there is any greater military achievement than the defeat of Ordos.
"Old Wang, you are the commander of the personal guard of the General Soldier, why don't you go and ask?"
"Nonsense, is this something we can ask? Let's wait for the imperial edict!"
"Several generals, the Commander-in-Chief just said that the letter sent back by Mr. Sun Ge said that mutual markets can be opened, but strict precautions must be taken!"
…
Amid the whispers of the soldiers, the news slowly spread in Xuanfu Town.
The postman who received the victory report in front of the city gate was now heading towards the capital at an accelerated speed of 600 miles. Along the way, countless merchants and people were shocked by this great victory, and they were even more curious about what kind of great victory it was.
Countless people lit incense and candles at home, chanting words such as ancestors' blessings, the emperor's return after a great victory, and other similar words, with extremely pious expressions.
The emperor personally marched on the expedition. Although roadblocks were set up, it was impossible to block the march of more than 100,000 troops.
It is not known outside the Great Wall, but it has been spread among the people within the territory, and it is an undisclosed secret.
During the period when the emperor was out, they were all on tenterhooks. After the new emperor ascended the throne, everything he did was for the people's livelihood and the Ming Dynasty.
