After hearing this, Zhang Cong said excitedly: "Just have it, even if there is only 5,000 people's equipment, we can also make an elite of 5,000 people, and it can play a big role at a critical time." ”

"Five thousand? You think beautifully! Wang Zaijin glared at Zhang Cong and said with a smile: "More is more." ”

While the two were talking, the good news was also delivered to the front and handed to Xiong Tingbi's hand.

Looking at the good news in his hand, Xiong Tingbi didn't speak for a long time.

To be honest, the result was beyond his expectations.

Although this is good news, the shock to Xiong Tingbi is too great.

Actually won?

Thinking of what he had done in Liaodong, suffered so much, and suffered so many crimes, Xiong Tingbi didn't know what it was like in his heart.

He had some loss, and people thought that he would recover Liaodong, but now it seems that this dream is getting farther and farther away.

However, Xiong Tingbi quickly came out of his loss.

The eastern front has already been won, and its own western front cannot be lost, Tieling and Qinghe must be won!

Glancing at Li Guangrong who walked in, Xiong Tingbi asked directly, "Are our people ready?" ”

"It's ready." Li Guangrong said with a serious face.

"That's good!" Xiong Tingbi said directly: "Tell them to prepare to attack the city." This battle can only be won, not defeated! Be sure to take Qinghe as soon as possible and hit Tieling directly! We have to take Tieling and Qinghe as soon as possible! ”

"Yes, Marshal." Li Guangrong nodded in agreement, and then he asked with some hesitation: "Dashuai, I heard that the Eastern Front was won?" ”

After hearing this, Xiong Tingbi glanced at him.

Although he didn't know how Li Guangrong got the news, Xiong Tingbi also knew that the news couldn't be hidden, and it could boost morale after it was spread, so Xiong Tingbi didn't plan to hide it.

He nodded lightly and said, "Indeed, the battle was won." ”

After hearing this, Li Guangrong's face showed a strange look as well.

It should be a happy thing to win, but where I thought I lost, people won, and it's not easy to do.

"That's good news, take a look." After Xiong Tingbi finished speaking, he handed a piece of good news to Li Guangrong.

After glancing at the good news, Li Guangrong's face showed a look of disbelief.

He raised his head and looked at Xiong Tingbi and asked, "How is this possible?" You only lost 400 men? Jiannu died 20,000 younger, isn't it fake? ”

Xiong Tingbi shook his head and said, "Of course not. The people in Liaoyang have already gone to see it, and the corpses were all disposed of by them, which is not fake. What's more, Sun Chuanting didn't dare to deceive His Majesty, that was the crime of bullying the king. ”

"It's amazing!" Li Guangrong said with a sigh.

Li Guangrong looked down on Sun Chuanting before, but he didn't expect the slap in the face to come so quickly. People get things done at such a fast pace, and the rest is up to their side, and the pressure comes.

"But how did they win?" Li Guangrong raised his head and looked at Xiong Tingbi and said directly.

Jiannu's strength, Li Guangrong They also know that the two sides have fought once.

But now in the face of Sun Chuanting's people, Jiannu behaves like a bandit who has been wiped out by the official army, and he is still the kind of bandit who does not enter the stream. This is too wasteful, is it acting?

Xiong Tingbi said: "It's because of their equipment." Those bazookas, hand-cranked machine guns, unfortunately we don't have them. If we had one, it would be much easier. ”

This is also where Xiong Tingbi feels uncomfortable, His Majesty didn't give it to him!

Although His Majesty also gave him some new equipment, it was not a little worse than the royal army.

So Xiong Tingbi said: "After we go back, we will also ask for it, this battle must be fought beautifully, otherwise I will be embarrassed to speak." ”

"Don't worry, there's absolutely no problem." Li Guangrong said with a smile,

"Then let's go, let's take down Qinghe first, and then go to Tieling." After saying this, Xiong Tingbi walked out with firm steps and speed.

Among the Shanhaiguan.

Zhu Youxiao began to pack his things and prepared to go back.

This battle will soon be over, and under such circumstances, there is no need for Zhu Youxiao to stay here too much.

The matter is done, and this time the matter can be said to be satisfactorily resolved. At a time like this, he couldn't stay any longer.

I don't know what happened in the capital, it's been almost four months since I came out, and if I don't go back, I should be in trouble.

With Liaoyang's men and horses taking over Jianning Sanwei, Tingsun Chuanting's men and horses can also come back.

As for Xiong Tingbi's side, the good news has already arrived, they have taken Qinghe and are besieging Tieling. I believe that in a few days, Tieling will also be able to be taken down.

In fact, it didn't take a few days at all, and Jiannu broke through that night, and they gave up Tieling and ran directly.

The whole battlefield was over, and Zhu Youxiao didn't wait for the army to turn around, he wanted to go first. It was impossible for him to go with Sun Chuanting and them, just leave with his personal guards.

As for the Mongols, the war is also coming to an end.

And Da Yu'er, Zhu Youxiao is not going to take it back this time, and is ready to let her go back to Mongolia.

If Da Yuer wants to marry Zhu Youxiao, it will be two years later, or more years later. Now her role is over.

As for the question of the alliance between the two sides, whether there is a big Yu'er at this time or not, both sides can form an alliance, so she doesn't matter. When she wants to marry Zhu Youxiao, she will change her identity.

Zhu Youxiao looked at Bumu Butai in front of him and said directly: "Go back, I will have someone send you to Guangning and let your brother pick you up." ”

Bumu Butai looked at Zhu Youxiao, her expression was a little complicated, and she said, "Your Majesty, take care." ”

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "Don't worry, we will meet again one day." When that day comes, you will officially become my concubine. ”

The canonized decree has been sent to Horqin, and it is impossible to deny this matter. Unless the two sides turn their faces and the covenant is null and void.

But there's nothing to say about this kind of thing, who knows what the final result will be?

However, Zhu Youxiao believes that even if the two sides turn their faces, he and Da Yuer will have a chance to see each other again. If you don't bring her back this time, you will have a lot less trouble.

"Come on, send them away." Zhu Youxiao commanded directly.

Da Yu'er is gone, and it is impossible for Zhu Youxiao to continue to stay in Shanhaiguan for too long.

Besides, Xiong Tingbi, there is no need to meet here. If you see Xiong Tingbi in the future, just wait for him to return to Beijing to report on his work; Or another war in Liaodong.

It's just that if Liaodong goes to war again, it is estimated that Zhu Youxiao will not come.

The car left Shanhaiguan, and Zhu Youxiao went directly to the capital, without saying anything all the way.

On this day, I returned to the capital.

And the battle report has long been transmitted back to the capital, after the initial fright, disbelief, to the final acceptance and shock, the capital has also experienced a shock.

No one thought that His Majesty would actually go to Shanhaiguan from Zhangjiakou and command such a war, and he won it.

It's still really hard to believe! Especially the performance of the Son of Heaven's pro-army in this battle is simply jaw-dropping!

All of a sudden, Zhu Youxiao's prestige rose in an instant, and it can be said that he is in the limelight.

The slogan of the Lord of Zhongxing was shouted at this time.

No one dared to stand up against it, and the momentum was huge for a while.

This kind of thing was naturally arranged by Zhu Youxiao in advance, and public opinion wanted to build momentum, and he would not forget this.

What's more, if he really won this time, this is a battle to wash away the shame of Da Ming, and he deserves such treatment.

At the same time, it also lets the people in the capital know how powerful the royal army is, so don't make a fuss.

After returning to the capital, Zhu Youxiao went directly back to the palace.

In the next few days, Zhu Youxiao did not go to the court, nor did he summon the minister, but only accompanied Empress Zhang and her son.

The whole capital is terrifyingly quiet, and there is also a feeling that mountain rain is coming.

Everyone knows what His Majesty has done, and a lot of news has already come back.

Winning the war is naturally a good thing, and an alliance with Mongolia is not a big deal. But when I heard that His Majesty was going to marry a Mongolian woman as a concubine, some people couldn't accept this matter. They held their breath to admonish.

In the atmosphere of surprise, there was a trace of depression in the whole capital.

Ouchi of the Imperial Palace.

Zhu Youxiao summoned Wei Zhongxian.

Recently, Wei Zhongxian's pressure can be said to be very high.

In the affairs of Zhangjiakou, Jin Yiwei performed very prominently and won the trust of the emperor. What does this do with Dongchang?

For Dongchang, this thing is not easy to do!

However, Wei Zhongxian is also a capable person, and he quickly found an entry point.

For Dongchang and Jinyiwei, their role is to guard the door for the emperor, and there is something to do, and there is nothing to do.

What if there is nothing to do?

If there is nothing to do, how can you create things, and if you don't do things?

Zhu Youxiao looked at Wei Zhongxian and said, "This is the third time you want to see me." What do you have to say when you come here? Go ahead. ”

Wei Zhongxian knew that the emperor might be unhappy, but he still had to gamble.

Wei Zhongxian said: "Emperor, the slave and maid have discovered something, and they really dare not call the shots, so they have come to tell the emperor." ”

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Wei Zhongxian and knew that this person was going to do something. But he was also very curious, Wei Zhongxian wanted to see him several times, so sure?

If the matter is not very big, Wei Zhongxian will not be able to eat and walk around.

During this time, Zhu Youxiao went deep and simple, but he didn't want to show up. Wei Zhongxian was anxious to beg him, this was a big deal.

"Emperor, the slave has discovered something." Wei Zhongxian looked at Zhu Youxiao and said, "It's about those foreigners in Daming, and the slaves and maids found out that they were plotting against each other. ”

After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao suddenly became interested and sat up straight.

For Zhu Youxiao, this is really a big thing. He asked, "What are those people going to do?" Is it to gather together and prepare for rebellion? ”

"Not really." Wei Zhongxian said with some embarrassment: "They are preaching their heretical doctrine. ”

"Oh, really?" Zhu Youxiao looked at Wei Zhongxian and asked, "What the hell is going on?" Let's talk about it. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. There was a man named Wang Wei, who was a jinshi in the second year of the Apocalypse, and was fifty-two years old at the time. Since Wang Zheng had already been baptized and consecrated, he immediately sent a letter to his family members not to marry a concubine for him, saying: "Today's ascension is a gift from God. Since he had won the first place in the examination ten times, and shortly after his baptism, Wang Zheng was convinced that his attainment was due to God's blessing. ”

"He was able to pass the exam, obviously it was a gift from the Son of Heaven! He was grateful for some Catholicism, which was really ill-intentioned. As a courtier, there is no way to be loyal to the king and patriotism in his heart, but to believe in God, which is a great sin! ”

Later, he was awarded the official of Guangping Mansion, and later, the whole family went together. Although his wife Shang had many boys, they all died of acne, and only two daughters survived. Wang Zheng was relieved of his mind under the circumstances of his wife and daughter's pleading, his younger brother and nephew's weeping, and his father's strict orders, so he married the fifteen-year-old Shen as a concubine in the third year of the Apocalypse, hoping to have a son to continue the incense. ”

Since concubinage has always been regarded as a serious crime in Catholicism, Wang Zheng felt that he was guilty of a serious sin, so he asked Kim and other priests to exonerate him, but he was not allowed. And he said, "If you don't go to the end of sin, sin will be difficult to solve!" Wang Zheng regretted himself, couldn't worry all day long, and had no intention of being an official. ”

"These foreigners in Daming are demagogic and disrupt officialdom, which is really a great crime! The slave and maid ask the emperor to allow the slave and maid to investigate thoroughly! ”

Zhu Youxiao looked at Wei Zhongxian and knew that this guy was prepared. However, what Wei Zhongxian said should indeed be taken seriously, and this matter cannot be handled so hastily.

Zhu Youxiao is not interested in the matter of accepting concubines, but the infiltration of Catholicism. These people can make the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty believe in piety, and they also do not accept concubines, Zhu Youxiao can know the power of this.

At first, they believe in themselves, and then they make others believe. The method of convincing others was persuasion at first, then profiteering, and finally becoming a pagan.

In the entire history of the development of religions, the religions of Europe can be said to be bloody. With such a religion, it is impossible for Zhu Youxiao to let them develop in Daming, so he can't let things develop like this.

If the Ming Dynasty had been in chaos as soon as it had been in the original history, there would have been no room for these religions to develop.

But now that the Ming Dynasty is under the influence of Zhu Youxiao, if there is long-term stability, then these people will have room to play, and in the end, there will be sectarian disputes first, and in the end, there will be disputes with the imperial power, and if it is not good, it will be a color revolution.

How can this kind of thing be done for them?

Zhu Youxiao said: "Let Wang Wei enter Beijing." In the Catholic Church in the capital, who has the final say? ”

"Back to the emperor, there are two foreigners with high prestige, and they have the final say. One is called Matteo Ricci and the other is called Kinney Court. ”

Zhu Youxiao pondered for a moment and said, "Let them enter the palace, and say that I want to see them." ”

"Yes, Emperor." Wei Zhongxian hurriedly agreed, with an excited look on his face.

His chance has finally come!
