"The last general, Qin Zuoming, knocks on Your Majesty!"

"The last general, Ma Wannian, knocks to see Your Majesty!"

In the Imperial Palace, Qin Zuoming and Ma Wannian, who came from Wuchang, bowed down together.

Knowing that people from the southwest, Chongzhen immediately went down to Wansui Mountain with Liu Hong, in order to show his attention, Chongzhen also ordered Wang Erxi to ring the Jingyang bell and summon hundreds of officials to directly visit the imperial palace.

"Two Aiqing, please get up! I'm here from the southwest, let's talk about the situation over there! Chongzhen has changed his previous regular clothes into court clothes, and he is obviously in a good mood.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The two of them got up.

"Since the beginning of last month, the Governor of Qin has broken the Zuo bandit army for more than a month, and now Wu Chang, Jiujiang and all the places that were once occupied by these bandit armies have been recovered.

More than 60,000 enemies were killed, and a total of 168,000 people were surrendered, and these prisoners were to be divided into more than a dozen batches according to His Majesty's will, and transported to the north to build a river.

This time, the two ministers came to dedicate a total of 58 leaders and leaders of the Zuo bandit army to His Majesty on the order of the Governor of Qin, in order to deter the ministers! ”

Qin Zuo will grow up next year, and he will take a step forward and report truthfully.

"Good! Good! Although he already knew the general information of the southwest last month, Chongzhen's eyes were still moist.

Because he clearly saw that the young general in front of him was only arched with his right hand, and his left hand was ...... The sleeves hung empty under the shoulders.

"General Qin, your arm ......" Liu Hongjian also saw it, and said unconsciously.

"Be loyal to the country, even if you die without giving up, why not spare an arm?" Qin Zuoming said awe-inspiringly.

Although he was about 30 years old, it was the first time he came to the capital, and it was the first time he entered the court.

He didn't know Liu Hongjian in front of him, in fact, except for Chongzhen, who was wearing a dragon robe, the rest of the people in the court were all fresh faces, but as a general, he was not afraid of death.

"The Qin clan is really full of loyalty! An Guogong, this is all your credit! Chongzhen is indeed very pleased, one is that Da Ming can have this fierce general, and the other is Liu Hongji's wisdom to know people.

Sometimes, choosing the right person, even if you don't have to worry about it, is twice the result with half the effort.

And if you choose a mediocre talent, that is, you break your heart, whether you can't do it or not, Chongzhen has had enough of the latter in the past few decades.

Although the southwest won a big victory, Chongzhen was first grateful to Liu Hongji.

After all, if there were no good generals gradually selected by Liu Hong, let him come by himself, he really didn't know which generals he could fight under his command.

"Your Excellency is An Guogong?" Qin Zuoming's eyes widened when he heard the emperor's words.

"Yes, General Qin, this official ......" Although Liu Hongjian is also a long-time battle-hardened person, he thinks that he is not a warrior who dares to fight and kill, but a wise man who has the fortune (I) to raise (have) the curtain (A) and the hoop (K).

Because if it comes to pure force, he estimates that he can't even kill a Tartar, and what he admires most is this kind of general who is not afraid of death and is heroic.

"Lord Guogong is above, please be worshiped by the Qin clan!" Qin Zuoming didn't wait for Liu Hong to finish speaking, he picked up the battle armor with his right hand and bowed to the ground, and the armor touched the ground with a hula sound.

"Lord Guogong is above, please bow down to the Ma clan!" After General Fubo, Ma Wannian did not hesitate, and followed his cousin to bow down to Liu Hong.

The two of them came from Wuchang, and before leaving, Qin Liangyu repeatedly asked him that if he met Liu Hongji, the Duke of Anguo, he should thank him to repay the great kindness.

If there is no An Guogong, the stone pillar must have been broken by Zhang Xianzhong's troops, and the Qin family and the Ma family will definitely not be able to escape the catastrophe, this is one of them.

An Guogong not only saved tens of thousands of people from Shizhu and 2,000 white pole soldiers from danger, but also the Qin family and the Ma family made contributions because of their recommendation, which is the second.

Although they are now above the court, the two of them learned that the young man in front of them was An Guogong, so where did they care about it.

"General Qin, General Ma, what are you doing, hurry up!" Liu Hong was gradually startled, and he knelt down on one knee to help Qin Zuoming.

This is especially the court, big brother, you are all in charge of the army, isn't this a harm to Lao Tzu?

"An Guogong, let them worship, you deserve this gift!" Liu Hong's face was sweating, and the courtiers around him were all looking sideways, but only Chongzhen smiled.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... Shame on you! Liu Hong was gradually moved, and this trust was as heavy as a mountain.

At this time, if anyone dares to say that His Majesty is suspicious, Liu Hong gradually dares to take out AKM and surprise him, because you are not good enough!

"The three Aiqing are all up, you and others are the pillars of the Ming Dynasty, blood-stained territory without fear, even death without resignation, I am very comforted! Bounty! Chongzhen was very happy, but the title had been enshrined before, but fortunately, the treasury now has money.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Qin Zuoming and Ma Wannian got up, but Liu Hongjian still knelt on the ground.

"Wenchen is not greedy for money, and military generals are not afraid of death, so the Ming Dynasty will prosper!

Weichen congratulated His Majesty, the Zuo bandit army was destroyed, and now only Zhang Xianzhong's department is left in the southwest, and his people do not want to be enterprising, and it is no longer a worry to have General Qin's deterrence.

Now the Ming soldiers are strong and strong, and the new troops in various places are well trained, have high morale, and are ready to go!

On the other hand, Jianyu has fallen into a situation of internal strife and rebellion.

It is Yichen who believes that the time has come to counterattack Jianyu! ”

Liu Hong's fighting spirit is high at the moment, and this momentum has been held back for too long.

"The minister seconded the proposal, and the Ming Dynasty wins!" Li Banghua, the deputy assistant to the cabinet, was equally excited, as he was the secretary of the military department, he was fully aware of the power of the phalanxes equipped with muskets.

What's more, yesterday An Guogong forcibly sold him twelve cannons for the military department at a unit price of 20,000 taels!

At first, Lao Li Tou felt that he had lost money, and a cannon sold for 20,000 taels, so it was better to grab it.

But no one is big in terms of official positions, no one is high in terms of grace, and Chongzhen nodded his head, as long as An Guogong feels that it is necessary, he has to buy it.

Li Banghua had no choice, so he discussed with Ni Yuanlu, the secretary of the household department, who was also bitter, and paid a full 240,000 taels of silver before pulling the Raushzi cannon back to the Xishan camp.

However, a few artillery craftsmen who accompanied the army only fired one shot, which made many of the military officials of the Anguo Gongkeng people shut up.

The cannon made of stainless steel not only has a long range and great power, but with the addition of a front car, three or two soldiers can push it away, not to mention the convenience of war horses.

It is really a sharp weapon for field warfare and siege.

Steel refining is not easy, the loss rate is high, the conversion rate is low, and the coke alone is a complicated step, not to mention that even the gun body with the gun carriage is made of stainless steel, and the cost is here.

The Ministry of War was also required to purchase 80,000 new grenades, each priced at one tael of silver, for a total of 80,000 taels of silver.

The war is fought with silver, not to mention that Liu Hongjian really doesn't want much, after all, he himself is also eager to counterattack Jianqing, and the price of arms is basically the cost price.

"The minister seconded the proposal, and the Ming Dynasty wins!" The first assistant of the cabinet took the lead, and all officials worshipped.

Chongzhen's face was excited, and his arm couldn't help but tremble slightly.

How many years, how many years has the Ming Dynasty relied on the Great Wall, and now is it going to counterattack?

PS: A little tired.
