Chapter 357: The Cry of the Repeater (Two-in-One Big Chapter, I don't have enough overtime time today, I hope you Haihan)
On the huge school field of the Xishan camp in the western suburbs of the capital, 50,000 troops were already standing in formation.
20,000 cavalry of the Beijing battalion were on either side, 15,000 spearmen of the battalion were in the front, 20,000 musketeers of the Shenji battalion were in the center, and then 500 cannon gunners.
The cavalrymen wore dark armor and iron helmets with swords at their waists, and the spearmen wore leather armor, and the most fashionable were the red-trored musketeers of the Shenji Battalion.
Lin He, the general of the Shenji Battalion, lined up at the head of the musketeer array, holding his head high, and a new rifled gun was polished on his back, which Lin He relied on his own face to get from Liu Hongji's thousand households.
Bright red spread throughout the center of the school field, and all the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion were no longer ashamed of the red pants, in fact, after a series of battles in March, they were now very proud to be able to wear this unique military uniform.
It was the middle of May in the lunar calendar, and under the windless weather, the 50,000 people in the school field were densely populated.
But all the soldiers did not dare to complain, and ten days earlier, they had received an order to prepare the whole army for battle, and most of the soldiers were so excited that they could not sleep that night.
Because the treatment of the last battle with Jianlu was too rich, only the reward of silver was actually sent down more than 20 million taels, and it is said that the worst soldiers also received almost 100 taels.
What is the concept of one hundred taels, it is said that many guys who were poor before and couldn't marry a daughter-in-law did a happy event as soon as they came back......
This is not counting, it is not for nothing that ordinary soldiers who have accumulated military merits and raised flag-raising officers and promoted hundreds or even thousands of households, and there are one or two legendary figures in every military camp.
In the eyes of these big-headed soldiers, they may not dare to think about it, but they still dare to think about it if they fight to become a flag officer to earn some rewards and marry a wife, because many people have already achieved all this.
Now, the imperial court is going to use troops again!
All the soldiers who didn't have the opportunity to participate in this war last time were crazy, but there were hundreds of thousands of troops in the Beijing camp, and the number of places for this expedition was only 50,000......
For the sake of a place, there was even a big fight in the barracks a few days ago, so that now, many soldiers standing in this school field still have blue noses and swollen faces.
They are the winners, the strongest of the Jingying Army, and the elite of the Ming elite.
They are hungry for war, for meritorious service, or rather, for silver, for a good life......
The silver bounty may have made them excited, but the other news had excited them.
Three days ago, He Guoxing, the commander of the Beijing camp, ordered the whole army to report that this northern expedition was a personal expedition by the emperor of the Great Tomorrow.
When this news came out, the whole army vibrate!
In a country where imperial power is supreme, the imperial power is revered like a god in the hearts of every common people, and for these soldiers, the emperor going to war with them is undoubtedly bombing news.
The importance of this news even overrides those rewards, not every soldier can see the Son of Heaven in his military career, and not every soldier has the privilege of participating in a war with the Son of Heaven.
So that when they are old, when their children and grandchildren wrap around their knees to tell them stories, these soldiers can tell these children with honor and pride.
Lao Tzu, once fought Tartar with the Son of Heaven of the Ming Dynasty!
What's wrong with the hot weather?
What they are waiting for is the Son of Heaven of the Ming Dynasty, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and for them, it is all worth it.
But Chongzhen didn't let his soldiers wait too long, just after the hour, from the direction of the capital, a long dragon came in a hurry.
"Youming, I still feel a little untrue, I have inherited the ancestral business, but I have never even been out ......of this Shuntian Mansion" In the huge imperial chariot, Chongzhen and Liu Hong gradually sat opposite each other.
Being able to ride the royal chariot with the emperor is a favor that all courtiers have never received in their lives.
Chongzhen looked at the outside of the imperial chariot and sighed slightly, not knowing whether he was excited or confused.
Outside the imperial chariot, the bright yellow dragon flag, the brocade staff, the red helmet general of the 3,000 battalions, the Han general of the brocade guard, and the guards with knives in front of the royal chariot tightly surrounded the imperial chariot.
In the future, there were many doctors in the Tai Hospital, and because Chongzhen had a hidden disease, Liu Hong gradually waved his hand and took away most of the Tai Doctors in the Tai Hospital, as well as many medicinal materials and classics.
The smoke and dust were billowing out, and since he hit the capital, Chongzhen was worried.
"Your Majesty, you are the Son of Heaven, the whole world is not the king's land, the shore of the land is not the king's minister, the whole world is yours, but you can't even go out of this capital, isn't it ridiculous?
Those ministers always have a bunch of big truths, and the ministers can't scold them, and they don't bother to quarrel with them.
The minister felt that what you said that day was very domineering, you can go to the emperor in this world, who dares to stop him, let him go home and sell sweet potatoes! ”
Liu Hongjian lay down with Ge You, his hands on the soft back grip of the bright yellow chair.
This thing is more comfortable than riding a horse, oh no, than riding a carriage, but this is only once, according to the original plan, this time this honor guard is only for the people of the capital to see.
After leaving the barracks, in order to increase the speed of the march, Chongzhen will take a luxurious carriage with Liu Hongjian and go straight to Shanhaiguan.
"I don't want to do this, but before, I really couldn't help it, but now there is a new army in the capital camp, but I'm afraid that the courtiers will have a gap with me over time!"
Chongzhen's thinking was very clear, there was no way before, because even so, the courtiers would not agree to him to drive the expedition in person, and the courtiers would really not be able to leave him if they did not agree, because a few years ago, even the Beijing camp soldiers were in the hands of those courtiers.
The military generals have a low status, and for their own future, they have worshiped Wenchen, and even Qi Jiguang has to call himself a lackey when he writes a letter to Zhang Juzheng.
But now it is different, the newly formed Beijing battalion soldiers have been trained by their own humerus Liu Youming, as well as the rectification in the border army.
According to Liu Hongji's words, now as long as he looks at anyone who is not pleasing to the eye, he only needs to give an order, and these soldiers will not even blink an eye.
Liu Hongjian really didn't say much, as the emperor, it couldn't be easier to get the heartfelt hearts of these soldiers who didn't even know a word.
"Your Majesty, you care too much about those courtiers, the ministers remember that there seems to be a sect that said that the king is the boat and the people are the water, the water can carry the boat and the boat can also overturn the boat, and the people are what you should value the most.
As for those courtiers, the ministers felt that the emperor should really follow the example of Emperor Taizu Gao. ”
Liu Hong gradually said that he was not ashamed, that is, in this imperial palace, if it was above the court, Chongzhen estimated that those courtiers would have to blow up the nest in the court.
"I understand, I'm about to go to the camp in Xishan, be cautious, be cautious!" Chongzhen wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Emperor Taizu Gao, Mr. Zhu Chongba, the master of embezzling sixty taels of skinned grass, and he actually implemented it.
When the new officials took office, they could always see several human skins hanging high poles outside their yamen, filled with straw, and the wind blew and blew.
But should the corrupt officials be greedy or greedy, Zhu Chongba was furious, and killed one stubble after another of the hundreds of officials in the court, just one big case, he can kill thousands of children in one go.
This is not an exaggeration at all, Zhu Chongba has done this more than once, so that especially Jingguan'er, when he went to court, he looked like a mourner, and he had to write a suicide note in advance before going out.
Gaozu and Chengzu have never been soft in killing courtiers, but they have never seen anyone rebel anywhere, and those scholars have also poured into the court one after another to replenish the fresh blood of hundreds of officials......
Chongzhen remembered the glorious tradition of his ancestors, and seemed to feel that what this unashamed guy in front of him said was not wrong.
Water can carry a boat and capsize a boat...... It's not rough, huh...... No, this is not what Tang Taizong said, it is Wei Zheng.
Chongzhen glanced at Liu Hongjian and found that this guy had fallen asleep with his eyes closed.
Outside the Xishan camp, Chongzhen patted Liu Hongjian on the shoulder, and the two of them walked out of the palace together.
As soon as Liu Hong stepped into the barracks, he came to the spirit, this is a place where hormones are raging, and it is full of strong men with strong blood.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Hula burst of armor touching the ground, 50,000 steps, riding a wave to knees.
The sky was clear, and under the bright sun, the silver light of the armor shone, and the faces of the soldiers who were still excited with sweat under the iron helmets.
Liu Hong gradually rode a war horse and instructed the thousands of troops and horses in the audience to salute, and Chongzhen also went to the school review platform under the protection of a group of guards.
"Soldiers, you are flat!" Chongzhen, dressed in bright yellow clothes, walked to the side of the school reading platform, took a deep breath and shouted.
Dozens of Jinyi Wei Han generals immediately retold it, spreading the words of the Son of Heaven to the whole army.
Hula was another sound of armor touching, not only was this sound not harsh, but it made Chongzhen's chest burn with pride.
This is the warrior of the Great Ming, this is his warrior!
"I use Liangde, inherit the unification, renew the world, use the old ancestors, and rely on non-human people unexpectedly, so that the captives are rampant.
Fu Jianzhou, I belong to Yi, and I am a son of the original atmosphere, if I make it appropriate to care for the emperor, how dare I go against my face? ”
Chongzhen stood on the high platform, staring at thousands of soldiers, remembering the rampant construction of the army and the incompetence of the Korean Chinese military force in recent years, and did not feel as if he was in a different world.
But Liu Hong, who was in the audience, looked like he hated iron but not steel, and he rode a tall horse, shuttling back and forth in front of the military formation in the school parade field.
Nima! Didn't I say it last time, I want to speak in the vernacular, I want to speak in the vernacular, why didn't I have it by my side, this uncle started to drag the text again......
The point is, I can understand these things when you say them, and the courtiers can understand them, but these big-headed soldiers in front of me can't understand them!
"Your Majesty said that he inherited the unification for 18 years, and has always taken the world as his own responsibility, and wants the people of the Ming Dynasty and you to live a good life." As a last resort, Liu Honggradually had to ride a horse and break blindly in front of the military formation.
It always has to be of some use, these big-headed soldiers originally frowned when they listened to the reading of the Han general, but after listening to the translation of the cool general in front of them, the translators suddenly realized.
"However, the previous officials were too faceless and incompetent, which led to the rampant Tartars and the cruelty of my Ming people, to say that the Tartars of Jianzhou, they were originally subordinates of our Ming Dynasty, but they also dared to take the opportunity to harass my Ming people."
Liu Hongjian listened to the words of the Han general, and then translated it like a repeater.
"In February this year, Jianyu buckled the border and overthrew the Ming ...... with the intention of 200,000 troops"
"In February this year, the Tartars of Jianzhou came to make trouble again, and sent 200,000 cavalry to overthrow our Ming ......"
"However, I have generals, I have the Ming Dynasty An Guogong, once I came out, invincible, and the captives were broken......"
Uh, isn't this a boast? That's a translation.
"Your Majesty said that although there are more Tartars in Jianzhou, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are fiercer than them, and in just a few days, the Tartars of Jianzhou were driven back to their hometown by our soldiers of the Ming Dynasty."
"Today, we will mobilize the troops again and save Yuan Yuan, but in this move, it is only the civil and military affairs between the lines, the main and guest soldiers, the labor, hunger and cold, and I deeply miss it."
"Today, Your Majesty is recruiting all the soldiers again, because you want to completely renovate the Tartars of Jianzhou, but Your Majesty understands that you soldiers are hungry and tired, and Your Majesty says that he is very concerned about you."
Nima, uncle, you're not done!
Liu Hong gradually looked at Chongzhen on the proofreading platform behind him, he couldn't see clearly from a distance, but he saw Chongzhen straightening his waist and full of energy, and he didn't see the sick appearance in the Qianqing Palace.
"Thinking of its wind and food and sleeping in the open, I can't bear to lie in the deep palace, I can't bear to drink ice and eat roughly, I can't bear to enjoy the will, I can't bear to take risks in his clothes, I can't bear to embroider alone, in order to complete his work in a battle, I hereby choose May 18th, I am determined to drive the expedition in person, and rush to the border with the generals, conquer the north, and restore China!"
"Your Majesty said that he feels sorry for you to eat and sleep in the open, to eat cold meals, and to be injured on the battlefield, so in order to completely defeat the Tartars of Jianzhou, Your Majesty decided to go out of the customs with you today, overturn the dog Tartars, and restore the Daming River and Mountain!"
After Chongzhen finished speaking, his excited face turned red, but seeing that many soldiers below had no reaction, he couldn't help but think that what he said was not good enough.
"the dog tartars! Restore the Daming River and Mountain! A moment later, from nowhere, the soldiers' allegiance roared like a tsunami.
The weather was hot, Chongzhen took the Jinpa from the hand of the yellow door behind him and wiped it, but when he heard this sound, Chongzhen didn't feel tears in his eyes.
"Da Ming will win!" Liu Hong gradually raised his arms and shouted.
"Da Ming will win!" Thousands of soldiers fell to their knees, showing their determination to the great tomorrow on the school review platform.
"An Guogong takes the order!" A eunuch stood behind Chongzhen, spreading his hands and reading the holy decree aloud.
Before the 50,000 soldiers knelt on the ground and were not ordered to get up, Liu Hong gradually heard about it and hurriedly dismounted to receive the order.
"Fengtian carried the emperor, and said:
I hereby order the Ming An Guogong to capture the generalissimo, the Xuanliao Governor, the Governor of the Ming Dynasty Nine Border Military Affairs, and the Governor's Northern Expedition All matters, I am here, I only hope to share the weal and woe with the generals, and then the military items are all determined by the generalissimo and Xuanliao Governor Liu Hong!
Chin this! ”
The decree was concise and simple, and most of the soldiers understood it.
Liu Hongchuan, who received the order in the audience, also understood.
The most taboo thing for the army to go out is to order many parties, Huang Degong knows the soldiers, and even Liu Hongjian is also a half-hanger, but Chongzhen is only on paper, but his status and identity are the highest.
In this way, it has become a big question who to listen to, and Chongzhen can say in front of the soldiers that he will not interfere too much in military affairs, which is not unwise, and it cannot be said that he does not understand the righteousness.
Let all the generals, including Liu Hongji, feel deeply enriched.
"Minister Liu Hong gradually accepted the order, thank Your Majesty Longen!" Liu Hong's heart was full of excitement, but at the same time, he deeply felt the weight of this responsibility.
"All the generals are flat!" Chongzhen calmed down his surging mood.
Seeing that the soldiers had all gotten up, He Guoxing, the commander of the Beijing camp, came to report that everything was ready, and Chongzhen took out the sword at his waist with a bang.
"Expedition!" Chongzhen raised his long sword and shouted at tens of thousands of soldiers.
