Chapter 126: Reward and Punishment (Second Update, Asking for Votes!) )

The Battle of Happy Horse ended with a complete victory for the Ming army.

In this battle, 30,000 Qing soldiers were beheaded, and 3,000 Ming soldiers were killed, mainly Ai Chengye's subordinates.

Ai Chengye was ashamed of this, and took the initiative to plead guilty in front of the Son of Heaven and asked the Son of Heaven to demote him.

Zhu Youlang was indeed very disappointed in Ai Chengye.

Where is this a young and promising cadre in Li Dingguo's mouth, it is clearly a copy of Li Jinglong.

The hundreds of thousands of troops in the hands of Emperor Jianwen can make Li Jinglong lose to Lang, and now Nanming does not have such a solid family background.

After this battle, Zhu Youlang recognized Ai Chengye's strength in commanding the army. In the future, he will not let Ai Chengye lead the troops alone, as for fighting around Li Dingguo and others, he can consider it.

As for how to punish Ai Chengye, it is indeed a headache.

Because Ai Chengye's light enemy rushed forward, he directly buried the lives of more than 2,000 Daming children.

If he is not severely punished, it is not enough to give an account to the soldiers. But I have to take a little care of Li Dingguo's face. After all, Ai Chengye is Li Dingguo's nephew, and he is Ai Chengye personally recommended by Li Dingguo.

After comprehensive consideration, Zhu Youlang decided to temporarily deprive Ai Chengye of the right to command the army, abolish Ai Chengye's title of King of Yan'an, but still keep him in the army to be seen.

Ai Chengye didn't have anything to say about this, and immediately thanked him.

Li Dingguo also breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as the Son of Heaven did not kill Ai Chengye, he could accept it.

In the future, there will be more opportunities for meritorious service, as long as Ai Chengye has made a few military achievements, there will be a chance to turn over.

However, it was said that the Son of Heaven and the King of Jin led his troops back to Yibin City and were warmly welcomed by the people of Yibin.

They had already heard of the great victory of the officers and troops, and the Tartars who had beaten lost their armor.

After this battle, the Tartars did not dare to invade Yibin again for a short time.

At least for a short time they are safe and can go on with their lives as usual.

Hundreds of people welcomed the Son of Heaven.

As for the invincible King Li Jin, he is also the object of their scrambling to watch.

Ai Chengye was a little embarrassed, he asked himself if he lost the battle and had no face to see people, and he kept hanging his head and despondent.

Fortunately, the people didn't know the details, otherwise it would be too embarrassing to throw rotten vegetable leaves at Ai Chengye.

After returning to the palace, Zhu Youlang was about to rest, and the chamberlain Han Miao presented an urgent report.

Zhu Youlang opened it and saw that it was written by Wen Anzhi, so he immediately opened it to see.

Wen Anzhi mentioned in the recital that the Ming army stationed in Baoning Mansion had returned by exploring horses, and the Qing army in Hanzhong successively transferred troops and horses.

Although there was no substantial march, it is not clear whether the intention was to attack Sichuan.

Out of prudence, the Ming army of Boryeong Province sent a report to the capital as soon as possible. And Wen Anzhi immediately wrote a note and ordered people to send it to Yibin urgently for the Son of Heaven to read.

Regarding the situation in northern Sichuan, Zhu Youlang is still relatively relieved.

First, there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the capital, although they are not as elite as the elite led by Zhu Youlang, but they are enough to defend the city.

Coupled with the natural dangers in northern Sichuan, it is tantamount to a fool's dream for the Qing army to enter Sichuan.

Besides, Li Guoying has a total of troops in his hands, which is more to cooperate with Zhao Liangdong's attack on southern Sichuan, waving flags and shouting on the side to strengthen his momentum.

In contrast, Zhu Youlang was a little worried about Zheng Chenggong and Zhang Huangyan.

The two led tens of thousands of troops to hang overseas alone, with no food and grass supply, how could the army continue?

You can't always rely on grabbing, right?

I heard that the Qing court sent Shi Lang to the south to cooperate with Lang Tingzuo.

These two people are not fuel-efficient lamps, and if they cooperate with each other, Zheng and Zhang Lianjun will really suffer.

Zhu Youlang's army will be stationed in Yibin for the time being, and we will observe Zhao Liangdong's movements.

If Zhao Liangdong is entrenched in southern Sichuan, Zhu Youlang will take advantage of the victory to pursue.

If Zhao Liangdong retreated all the way back to Guizhou, Zhu Youlang could return to the dynasty as a teacher.

Now the Ming army has taken the absolute initiative, and only needs to watch the dishes.

...

...

Guizhou.

Hong Chengchou's right eyelid is always jumping these days.

According to the ancestors, the left eye jumps wealth, and the right eye jumps disaster.

This is a catastrophe.

Hong Chengchou naturally thought of Zhao Liangdong, who was fighting in southern Sichuan.

The army in Zhao Liangdong's hands can be said to have been pieced together by Hong Chengchou's painstaking efforts.

In addition, the elite pressure of the three banners brought by Aobai should be invincible, right?

Hong Chengchou did not treat Zhao Liangdong like an ordinary general, but taught him like his own children.

He really regarded Zhao Liangdong as a student, and he didn't have any reservations.

Seeing that Zhao Liangdong had the opportunity to command the army alone, Hong Chengchou naturally hoped that this student could make great contributions and leave a place in the emperor's heart.

As for Aobai's side, this guy has been relying on Guiyang all these days, and Hong Chengchou doesn't have much to say. I only hope that in the future, Zhao Liangdong's military exploits will not be too greedy and share too much.

When the Qing army pacifies Sichuan, Yongli can free up his hands to clean up these Guizhou toasts with peace of mind.

Aren't these toasts restless, well, the old man will set fire to your stockade.

Hong Chengchou has maintained the habit of getting up in the morning to boxing all these years, in order to prolong his life.

He hoped that he could live longer and see with his own eyes that the rivers and mountains of China were all under the rule of the Qing Dynasty.

In this way, he became a great hero of the Qing Dynasty, and he could be admired by thousands of people in later generations.

Maybe a hundred years later, the people will respect him as much as Yue Wumu and Yu Shaobao, right? Maybe I'll give him a shrine, right?

After all, history is written by the victor, and his image in the history of the youth will definitely be very great.

The more Hong Chengchou thought about it, the more proud he became, and took a sip of tea.

Just when he wanted to go out for a walk, the housekeeper suddenly came to report that a messenger had returned from the front line in southern Sichuan, and an urgent message had arrived.

Hong Chengchou immediately ordered him to take the letter.

Is it good news?

Hong Chengchou's mood was very worried, and his hand to open the letter was also a little trembling.

He took a deep breath to calm down, then pulled out the letter and flattened it to look at it carefully.

The content of the letter is not much, it is about 100 words in total.

Although Zhao Liangdong tried his best to embellish in his heart, he couldn't hide the fact that he was defeated in the process of attacking Yibin and had to retreat to Guizhou.

What kind of failure can make Zhao Liangdong run back to Guizhou without looking back?

It must have been a fiasco.

Hong Chengchou can still remember the embarrassed appearance of Wu Sangui when he fled back to Guizhou in a panic. Could it be that Zhao Liangdong wants to reproduce what happened to Wu Sangui at the beginning?

Hong Chengchou only felt that his chest was blocked with a breath of fire, and it was difficult to suppress it for a while, and he vomited blood.

His work in cultivating qi is first-class, and he has rarely been angry for so many years, so he didn't expect to make an exception today.

Qingzhi, Qingzhi, can't you let the old man save his worries?
