Is there another battle to be fought?
Listening to the emperor's words, everyone was stunned except for Yuan Keli, who was waiting for the military generals and sergeants who were going to the north.
The emperor has made it very clear, and the territory of the Ming Dynasty has been clarified, so why fight?
"Is it outside the Ming Dynasty?"
"Is it the Annan where the Yao people fled, or the Fusang who have repeatedly raided the coast? Or the Mongolian tribes further north? Or the Netherlands and Spain that are entrenched in Taiwan?"
Before everyone could think about it, Chongzhen continued to speak: "This time the Jiannu coalition is composed of Jiannu, Eastern Mongolia, and Fusang. Now that Jiannu has been destroyed, the Eastern Mongolian tribes have surrendered, and only Fusang is still there."
"Fusang has been harassing the Ming Dynasty for decades, and was later put down by Qi Jiguang and other generals. I did not take the initiative to settle accounts with them, but they jumped out first.
When I was encircling and annihilating the slave-building coalition, Fusang once again invaded the coastal cities in the past two months, and many villages were massacred!
First, they colluded with Jiannu, and now they are harassing the coastal areas of the Ming Dynasty. They are determined to destroy me! "
"I once said that after our generation has finished fighting, future generations will no longer have to fight.
Now my Ming army has unparalleled combat power and sufficient money and food. You tell me, what should I do? "
call……
call……
Everyone's breathing was quickened.
Everyone's face was full of disbelief. They wanted to mention this matter, but they couldn't find the opportunity. Now the emperor took the initiative to mention it.
And the initiative is given to them.
After the silence, the scene became excited.
"Cripple them!"
"Kill them!"
"The race will be exterminated!"
"Plow the courtyard and sweep the holes!"
…
"Plow the courtyard and sweep the holes!"
"Plow the courtyard and sweep the holes!"
Angry voices sounded one after another, and finally merged into a plow and sweep hole, hovering high in the sky.
After shouting for dozens of breaths, the shouting stopped.
Chongzhen's eyes were full of relief. He had received more than a dozen memorials from coastal prefectures, including Zhou Tingru, saying that local scholars and people had gathered to petition for war.
This is understandable, after all, their ancestors had been harassed by Japanese pirates, and now they wanted to avenge their blood and gain eternal peace.
I never thought that the people here in the capital hated Fusang so much.
Then he looked solemnly as he looked at the more than 50,000-strong Beidou army that had returned and the soldiers from the Beijing camp who were maintaining order.
"Soldiers, Fusang has repeatedly invaded the coast of the Ming Dynasty for nearly a hundred years, burning, killing, looting, and committing all kinds of evil.
Now it seems that they are uniting with the Dutch and Spanish navies to fight against the Ming Dynasty. It is true that dogs cannot change their behavior;
Since they are seeking death, then I will help them. I ask you, can you fight? "
"able!"
"Would you like to fight?"
"willing!"
"Do you dare to fight?"
"dare!"
"war!"
"war!"
"war!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
Having just experienced the Battle of Beidu, where hundreds of thousands of slave-building coalition troops were strangled, the fighting spirit and murderous spirit had reached their peak.
When they come together at this moment, the world really changes color.
The onlookers could not help but tremble, and had goosebumps all over their bodies.
"By crippling Fusang, I want to tell the surrounding enemies who covet the Ming Dynasty to stop being petty and behave themselves, otherwise I will crippling them!
As for the time for the war, I need to discuss it with the six cabinet ministries, but I believe that this day is not far away. Everyone is waiting for good news! "
"Also, the Eastern Expedition to Fusang is a cross-sea campaign, so we still need to consider which army to deploy.
But without exception, only the elite can do it. If you want to go, you have to work hard! "
"Long live your Majesty!"
"Long live the Ming Dynasty!"
"The Ming army is mighty!"
…
What they got in return was a landslide and tsunami of congratulations.
After cheering for a while, they slowly left the scene under the persuasion of the sergeants who maintained order.
The emperor wants to reward the three armies. What are they doing here? Swallow?
"My fellow soldiers, it has been nearly four months since we left Beijing. We have gone through dozens of battles, both small and large, and many sergeants have made tremendous military exploits.
But there are still some large armies sweeping the caves in Liting, Liaodong, and the reward will have to wait until they come back together.
So let’s wait for the reward first. Our main task today is to eat and drink well!
I have prepared fine wines, delicacies, and various snacks in a self-service manner. As long as there is no waste, you can eat and drink as you like, even if you get drunk, it doesn't matter.
But it’s cold at night, so be sure to catch a cold! "
"It still takes two hours to prepare. You can go back to the military camp, or you can do activities outside the city. It will be arranged by your respective commanders.
But I remind you, be sure not to eat, otherwise you will miss the feast I have prepared for you! It's all gone! "
With the emperor's words, the sergeants slowly walked into the distance in groups and stood there for almost two hours. They really couldn't hold it in any longer.
Looking at the soldiers leaving, Chongzhen looked at Yuan Keli and Li Guopu, and whispered: "Yuan Aiqing, Li Aiqing, it has been nearly four months since the expedition. You go back first to report that you are safe, and we will meet again later!"
"I thank you, Your Majesty!"
Then Chongzhen looked at Sun Chengzong again: "Sun Aiqing, you are watching over here and are responsible for coordinating.
I will go back to the palace. When everything is ready, I will send someone to tell me. I will come back to have fun with the soldiers! "
"I obey the decree!"
After Sun Chengzong responded, Chongzhen took a look at the flat field outside Desheng Gate. Teams of sergeants gathered from the various barracks of the Forbidden Army, pulling carts of fine wine, food, tables, chairs and benches.
They unloaded tables, chairs, benches, pots and pans, oil and salt, yellow mud and blue bricks, etc. from the car.
Under the guidance of officials from the Ministry of Works, the master masons began pouring water and mud into the prescribed places to build the stove.
Although there are many people, they are orderly.
Looking at the busy cooks, Chongzhen was very satisfied, and then he slowly climbed down the city wall and headed toward the palace.
Zhou Yuji, the commander of Tengxiang's right guard who was in charge of guarding the periphery, jogged a few steps and grabbed Cao Wenzhao, the commander of Tengxiang's left guard who was about to leave: "Old Cao, wait a moment!"
"What are you doing? I'm still busy!"
"Tell us about the battle of Beidou and let us enjoy it!"
"I can't finish talking about this in a short time. I can only say that every battle is exciting. I have experienced several battles in Liaodong, but compared to this time, they are all minor battles. That scene, Tsk tsk..."
"You're going to scare us to death. Hurry up and tell us what happened in the last battle!"
"Okay, don't worry, you will know the whole process clearly in a few days!"
"What do you mean?"
"Just wait. I have to make arrangements quickly. I'm going to have a big drink tonight to celebrate! As for you...just keep your guard up!"
"Old Cao, you are sincere, aren't you? Don't go to Fusang next time. It will be our turn too!"
"talk later!"
Seeing Cao Wenzhao leaving in a hurry, Zhou Yuji cursed in a low voice, then shook his head and walked away. Their Tengxiang Right Guards were responsible for the security within a ten-mile radius.
