When the news of the success of the peace negotiation came out, both sides were overjoyed and felt that they had earned it.

The Yongmu army in Pyongyang Province returned to Liaodong, and Dolgon also began to set off to return to Shengjing.

Along the way, everyone was tense, and the soldiers and horses of various banners were secretly surging, ready to wait for him to take the throne after his death, but Dolgon, like Xiaoqiang, saw that there was still one last breath, that is, he would not die.

Niu Jinxing returned to the unfamiliar Shengjing and was treated like Baturu, and everyone raised his thumbs to praise his bravery and say that he had saved the Qing Dynasty.

can pick up a life in the hands of a ruthless person, it's a character! The future is limitless!

Many officials of the Manchurian, Mongolian, Han and Korean Eight Banners took the initiative to befriend him, and Niu Jinxing ushered in the second highlight moment of his life.

The peace was successfully completed, and Niu Jinxing was awarded the title of first-class viscount for his meritorious service.

Hong Chengchou, who proposed peace, coupled with Kuang Fu Qing several times, was crowned the king of the south after many contributions!

Dolgon went to the emperor's name, and regarded himself as the lord of the northern kingdom, in fact, he changed his name, and still called himself I, no different from the emperor.

Shenyang conquered the Eastern Protectorate.

Zhu Cihong convened a pre-imperial council and announced two major events at the same time: the western expedition to Mongolia and the return of the class to the dynasty.

Monan Mongolia, must fight!

Such disobedient and capricious people, if they don't teach a good lesson, they will have more trouble in the future!

The lesson is on the one hand, the most important thing is to completely submerge Monan into the territory of the Ming Dynasty, set up the northern capital to protect the palace, and form a barrier to defend Beijing.

Why defend Beijing? Zhu Cihong bluntly said that he wanted to re-establish the Ming Jingshi in Nanjing!

The surrounding area where Nanjing is located is the main grain producing area, the economic and cultural center of the Ming Dynasty, and the foundation of itself.

Now that the north has been smashed, and the city of Beijing has been tossed miserably, even if Zhu Cihong has set the capital in Beijing, many people will not agree.

Now the foundation of the imperial party is in Nanjing, and the family industry of the Tianwu Army is also in Nanzhili, and then returning to Beijing is equivalent to moving the capital, who is willing to drag his family to the north to blow the wind.

Most importantly, during the Age of Discovery, Nanjing was best suited as a court location with a vast overseas empire.

As long as Dongfan and Ryukyu were taken, Nanjing could avoid maritime threats, and could also make full use of the Yangtze River passage and sea transportation of supplies to form a powerful supply line.

As for the threat in the steppe, with the development of firearms, the nomads could only become hospitable, able to sing and dance.

If Daming could rely on the ocean to earn 100 million taels of silver, there would be no threat.

In the same way, the solid country is not in the danger of mountains and rivers, and if the imperial court is rotten to the roots, it will be useless anywhere.

Nanjing can be an enterprising capital, and some dynasties in history have done it, not because of its geographical location, but because of human factors.

Zheng He went to the West seven times, six of which were in the Ming Dynasty during the period of Nanjing, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and the Yongle Shengshi was also created in Nanjing.

Zhu Cihong had long planned to set the capital of Nanjing, and the Ming Dynasty still implemented the two-Beijing system, or the three-Beijing system, to build Beijing and Xi'an into important military towns, retain six institutions, store war resources, and respond to sudden changes in the north and northwest at any time.

Monan Mongolia is next to Beijing, and only by taking Monan can Zhu Cihong settle the capital of Nanjing with peace of mind, so this battle must be fought no matter what.

In response to the use of troops in Monan, Zhu Cihong only used the Longwu Army and the Eight Banners to capture the reorganized criminal army, and the rest of the troops in Liaodong, except for the garrison of Zhengdong Protectorate (formerly Liaodong Army) under the command of Mao Yuanyi, all returned to the dynasty.

In order to avoid the incident of the Gaoliang River of Song Taizong and improve the morale of the Western Expeditionary Army, Zhu Cihong announced that after this battle, he would be canonized and crowned as a meritorious hero!

The meritorious number is awarded the title of meritorious minister, originated in the Tang Dynasty, during the Kaiyuan period of Tang Xuanzong, the title of "Kaiyuan meritorious hero" was given to some meritorious heroes, and the Tang Dynasty was given the title of "Baoying meritorious hero", Tang Dezong fled to Fengxiang due to chaos, and gave the officers and soldiers from the forbidden "Fengtian Dingyuan from the meritorious hero".

The heroes of the Ming Dynasty were titled, and a group of founding honoraries who followed Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang to fight the world were called "Founding Auxiliary Movement", and those who followed Chengzu Zhu Di were called "Fengtian Jingjing".

Zhu Cihong ordered the Nanjing Ministry of Rites to create an iron coupon for the title of "Fengtian Yiyun" in advance, and engraved the name, honor, and official title of the recipient to calm the hearts of the army.

This time, Zhu Cihong revealed in advance that at least three princes, eight marquises, and ten earls should be crowned, and the sergeants who participated in the Northern Expedition were rewarded with a large amount of land and silver.

After this decision was announced, the morale of the army was immediately greatly boosted, especially the Longwu Army, which participated in the Western Expedition, regained its spirit, and the officers and men of the Tianwu Army and the Jingwu Army, who had returned to the Dynasty, also actively asked to participate in the Western Expedition.

Then he went deep into Mongolia for thousands of miles, and the supply was difficult, Zhu Cihong only sought a quick victory, insisted on using cavalry to assault, and the rest of the army went south as planned.

Some soldiers who were looking forward to making new contributions and receiving knighthoods were disappointed and had to wait for the opportunity to go on expeditions in the future.

Emperor Tianwu is ambitious, and it is inevitable to conquer the Quartet, and there will definitely be a lot of major wars in the future, and it will be similar in the early years and later years, so thinking about it, many soldiers are also relieved.

At the Imperial Meeting, a series of arrangements were made for the main and secondary routes, and the troops attacked in three directions.

He ordered Cao Bianjiao, who was stationed at Xifengkou and Lengkou Pass, to lead 20,000 Longwu troops out of the pass and go north to attack the five banners of the two divisions of the Zhuo Suo Tu League, and Zhou Xingyao led 20,000 criminal troops to attack the Zhaowuda League, which was closer to Shenyang, and the two men and horses finally met in Manihan City, Ao Han Department.

Zhu Cihong personally led 5,000 Imperial Forest Army and 20,000 Longwu Army to the north of the Horqin Grassland to sweep away the Zhelimu League!

Chu Yuanfang and Li Dingguo are still stationed in Beijing, and once there is an accident in the grassland, they can send troops to reinforce at any time.

The military operation of the Western Expedition to Mongolia is codenamed: Tianwu Liting!

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Mongolia's neighbor has been a headache for the Ming Dynasty, Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang eight Northern Expeditions, Ming Chengzu Zhu Di five expeditions to Mobei, the Great Yuan Dynasty was beaten into the Northern Yuan, and the regular army was beaten into a miscellaneous army.

The Northern Yuan was beaten into Tatar and Warat, and then divided into various Mongol tribes such as Monan, Mobei, Chahar, Oirat, etc., and the miscellaneous army was turned into a guerrilla army, and the Great Khan alone jumped out dozens of them intermittently.

The Ming Dynasty and Mongolia fought countless battles, and also talked about peace countless times, after the defeat of the ministers, after the ministers were opposed, they ran away if they couldn't fight, and the Ming army left and came back to rob, tossing back and forth for more than 200 years.

After five years, Zhu Cihong once again put on armor and conquered Monan, the last time he was the crown prince, this time he was the Ming Emperor.

In this expedition to Mongolia, Zhu Cihong adhered to the traditional philosophy of the old Zhu family: either don't do it, or do it, and prepare to be ruthless and give Monan Mongolia a fatal blow.

Tianwu Plough Court, grassland hunting, try the Ming army's Heding rifle with a killing distance of more than 900 meters, can they become good at singing and dancing, and by the way, make a title of "Heavenly Khan".

In July of the first year of Tianwu, tens of thousands of Ming troops officially sent troops to the west, marching towards the grassland.
