Chapter 303: The Carnival of the Border Army
Prince Zhu Cihong and his entourage, after disposing of the Tartar prisoners, in the farewell of many people, marched towards Chang'an Street, in addition to the 3,000 battalions and more than a dozen generals of the border army, but also followed a group of 'mules'.
Yes, none of these royal historians were horses, they were all mules.
Zhu Cihong really felt it, and none of the bloody guys behind him who often scolded his father and emperor could do anything!
He was suddenly a little curious, I don't know why the ancestors came up with such a large number of imperial histories, just because of these officials who heard the news, the Ming Dynasty has produced many unjust cases for more than two hundred years, and I don't know how many manpower and material resources have been spent on it.
"Your Highness, what do you want?" Liu Hong gradually rode on the horse, and when he saw Zhu Cihong open the curtain and look out the window in a daze, he asked.
"It's nothing, this palace seems to understand better now what a clear stream is and what a follower is......"
……
In the Imperial Palace, Emperor Chongzhen has been waiting on the throne for a long time.
Originally, this prisoner sacrifice ceremony should have been presided over by him personally, but for some reason, Chongzhen specially ordered the crown prince Zhu Cihong to go on his behalf.
After the hundred officials finished saluting, Chongzhen immediately stood up from the throne.
"The border army and the generals who went to the border camp come forward!" Chongzhen's mood seemed to be good, and his haggard face seemed to have a little light.
"Shanhaiguan General Soldier Wang Yuanba knocks to see Your Majesty!"
"Jizhou General Soldier Li Jie knocks to see Your Majesty!"
"Xuanfu Counselor Xu Gaoxin knocks to see Your Majesty!"
"Wu Binghao, the general of the 3,000 battalions, knock to see Your Majesty!"
"Shenji Battalion guerrilla Yang Chao knocks to see Your Majesty!"
……
In just a moment, more than a dozen generals of the border army and the Beijing battalion knelt down from the military attache array.
Most of these generals are going to the court for the first time, but they are all iron men who have experienced life and death, and under the leadership of the two general soldiers, they all have no stage fright.
"Li Yunkui, the intended purpose!" Chongzhen Zhengsedao.
"Wang Yuanba, the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, will be rewarded with two thousand taels of silver and given a flying fish suit!
Promote Li Jie, the chief soldier of Jizhou, to Jinglubo, reward 2,000 taels of silver, and give flying fish clothes!
Promote Wei Penghong, the chief soldier of Xuanfu, to destroy the uncle, reward 2,000 taels of silver, and give flying fish clothes!

Liu Wen, the chief soldier of Guyuan Town, was promoted to Pingbei Bo, rewarded with 2,000 taels of silver, and gave flying fish clothes!
Promoted Lu Yi, the chief soldier of Gansu Town, to Xing'anbo, rewarded 2,000 taels of silver, and gave flying fish clothes!
……
Promote the 3,000 battalion staff generals Wu Binghao and Lu Haibo, and the Shenji battalion staff general Lin He as the viscount, reward 1,000 taels of silver, and give bullfighting clothes!
……
Promote the promotion of Chang Yu, the deputy of the Thousand Households of the Long Live Mountain, as the fixed uncle, reward two thousand taels of silver, and give the flying fish suit!
Promote the ancestor of the Thousand Households of the Long Live Mountain Thousand Households to be the Capture of the Brothers, reward two thousand taels of silver, and give the flying fish suit!
Promote Wang Lang, Xingshan, Yue Chengze, and Kuoduan to be viscounts, reward 1,000 taels of silver, and give bullfighting clothes!
Niu Zhuang, who was originally a member of the Marquis of Anguo's mansion, was loyal to his liver and courage, and went through the battle of Shanhaiguan, Shanxi, and Shaanxi, and made great contributions in this battle with Jianyu.
Tern is a viscount, a reward of 1,000 taels of silver, a bullfighting suit, if you are interested in entering the border army, you can be a general, promoted to earl! ”
Speaking of which, Chongzhen glanced at Liu Hongji, who was dangling his legs behind, and found that this guy didn't care about his behavior of digging corners.
"Xuanliao Governor Huang Degong, since he took office, he has not been chaotic in the face of danger, coordinated the nine sides, dispatched well, destroyed the captives, rewarded three thousand taels of silver, and gave the python suit!"
Chongzhen seemed to hesitate for a moment and said.
"Promote the Shanhaiguan guerrilla Feng Dunhou as the chief soldier and viscount of Dongjiang Town, give bullfighting clothes, and govern the east of the Liao River, including Phi Dao and Tieshan, and Phi Island will be renamed Wenlong Island from now on.
Xuanliao Governor Liu Hongchuan, repeatedly performed miraculous feats, only one line behind the enemy, destroyed 100,000 Jianyu, so that Jianyu returned without success, recovered the old Wenlong Island, and made Jianyu under the control of the enemy.
Promote the Marquis of An Guo to the Duke of An Guo, hereditary replacement, and reward 5,000 taels of silver!
Chin this! Ahem-a-ahem-"
Chongzhen said so much in one breath, and finally couldn't help coughing.
In the entire Imperial Palace, there was a sudden stasis.
The general soldiers of the nine-sided important towns were all named earls, and even many of the generals were named viscounts and barons.
There is also the small Banzai Mountain Thousand Households, a deputy thousand households have been named earls, and a hundred households have also been named viscounts......
After a battle, there were more than a dozen counts, more than 20 viscounts, and more than 40 barons!
There is also the flying fish suit, the ancestral system is fixed, and officials above the second grade can only be rewarded when they have great merit, and Chongzhen will not reward one for several years in the past.
It's good, it's like a wholesale all at once, and it's sent out so much.
As usual, the cabinet members stood in front of the hall and said nothing, all of them obeyed Chongzhen's orders.
And the officials led by Ma Shiying were all bitter gourd faces, and there were strands of grape sour at the back of the main hall......
Although his heart was very sour and unhappy, Ma Shiying decided that he didn't plan to make a head bird this time.
Looking at Chongzhen's expression, it is obvious that if he refutes again, it is estimated that he will have to go back to Nanjing to retire.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The generals of the border army and the Beijing camp returned together.
These generals originally wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to sacrifice prisoners to see the prosperity of the capital, and by the way, help the robes guarding the Great Wall to bring back the court's bounty.
But what I didn't expect at all was that as soon as I came to the capital, I was warmly welcomed by all the people.
Not only that, but he also went to the court, and was knighted by His Majesty the Emperor!
Title! It was the dream of all the generals, oh no, all the soldiers did not dare to reach!
The general who doesn't want to be a marquis is not a good soldier, and it is obvious that Chongzhen gave them a big gift!
"Ni Yuanlu of the household department and Li Banghua of the military department, the two of you will immediately coordinate and distribute the pensions and rewards that should be given to the border soldiers as scheduled, and there must be no mistakes!"
"Ministers Ni Yuanlu and Li Banghua obey the order!" The two uncles are not in a hurry, they are all in charge.
Whether it's paper paste or puppet, as long as Daming is developing in a good direction, what if the old man carries this pot?
Success or failure, merit or demerit, all have posterity comment!
"Ma Shiying of the Ministry of Rites!" Chongzhen glanced at Ma Shiying, who was uncomfortable.
"Ah, the minister is here!" Ma Shiying was taken aback and hurriedly went out of class to answer.
"This time, I want to announce it to the world and let the people of the Ming Dynasty know.
Ma Aiqing must do a good job in this matter, remember, let every county be notified, and I want all the people to know that the Ming Dynasty will not treat the meritorious soldiers badly! ”
Chongzhen's meaning couldn't be more obvious, he wants to vigorously reuse military generals!
"Chen Ma Shiying obeys the order!" Ma Shiying hurriedly said.
"An Guogong? An Guogong? Chongzhen shouted to the rear.
"Huh? The emperor is looking for me? ”
