Chapter 47: I really vomited blood
"That's the end of it?"
Leading the team along the secret passage and returning to the dilapidated cottage, Liu Zongmin saw that all the fighting had stopped, and the ground was full of soldiers of the new army cleaning the battlefield.
There are so many people that even this huge cottage area can't fit in.
Except for the officers and men of the Third Division, who were assembling the whole team, the other officers and men of the New Army did not say a word, their faces were sinking like water, and one by one they almost wrote "I am very unhappy now" on their faces.
There is no way, who let them come one step too late, these bandits are too unbeaten.
Hundreds of thousands of rogues were actually bombarded by artillery and solved by the soldiers of the Fifth Division with a single charge?
Whoever comes will be angry.
Liu Zongmin also understands very well, if it were himself, it is estimated that he would have been furious and scolded.
Therefore, he did not satirize and attack the generals of various divisions and regiments as before, and immediately ordered the officers and men of the Fifth Division to march with their booty and prisoners, and prepare to return to the Chinese army camp.
A moment later, as the new army soldiers left one after another, the scene quickly became empty, except for the raging fire that burned everywhere, gradually engulfing the dilapidated cottage.
……
"Your Majesty, this is a list of traitors who were captured by various divisions and regiments and gathered and sorted out by the General Staff, those who are clearly bandits, generals and gentry, but are actually traitors in the Tartars."
In the Qianqing Palace, in the warm pavilion, Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting, the two stood with solemn faces, and Lu Xiangsheng handed the thick manuscript in his hand to Zhu Youxiao.
Among them, there are also the confessions of those big and small traitors. In general, the current situation is not optimistic. ”
Lu Xiangsheng's voice suddenly became extremely cold.
He's furious right now!
He and Sun Chuanting couldn't have imagined that in the battle of Dafangshan, the relics of the three bandit leaders captured by Liu Zongmin actually contained such a huge amount of information!
In the entire Liaodong Theater, the Liaoxi Corridor and the Xuanda Region, almost thirty percent of the generals and officers have secretly defected to the enemy!
More than ninety percent of civil and military officials secretly have business dealings with Tartars all over the north!
Yesterday, after sorting out all this information, Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting were so angry that they vomited blood on the spot! Almost fainted on the spot.
Are these traitors who have no kings and fathers so attractive to be dogs for tartars and traitors willingly?
I would rather give up my identity as the Heavenly Empire and the people of China, and abandon my ancestors!
This is simply not a son of man!
And that's not all!
Among the information collated, almost all the merchants and merchants involved in the northern border trade have provided a large amount of money, food, armor and instant information of the Ming Empire for the Mongolian Tartars and wild boar skins over the years!
Almost all the families of the capital's officials who were killed by the emperor before, Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting didn't say it, but they still had a lot of complaints in their hearts.
However, the information obtained this time shows that more than ninety percent of the civil and military officials, who are either overtly or covertly connected with the Tartars, are those bold border civil and military officials and the people behind the border trade!
The emperor really didn't kill any good people!
It sucks!
It's really rotten!
When all kinds of shocking information were summed up, Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting were so shocked that they were stunned on the spot, and they finally eased up.
Therefore, early this morning, the two of them hurried to the imperial city to ask to see the emperor.
"Oh?"
Zhu Youxiao sat on the big wooden chair, noncommittal, took the stack of manuscripts with one hand with an expressionless face, and quickly flipped through the three lines at a glance.
The more I looked at it, the more gloomy my my face became, and gradually it became as black as the bottom of a pot.
After a while, he had gone through all the manuscripts cursoryly.
"Whew!"
After closing his eyes and pondering for a long time, he calmed down the mood in his heart that was about to explode, opened his eyes, and said gloomily:
"I heard that the generals in the Xuanda region and the direction of Shanhaiguan have once again called people to come to Beijing to urge military salaries?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Lu Xiangsheng nodded and said, "Just like last month, we have arrested and imprisoned all the messengers who came, and they are still being interrogated. ”
"Huh!"
Zhu Youxiao was angry, not angry, but laughed: "These rebel ministers who have no king and no father, don't say anything about betraying the country to seek glory, are they embarrassed to keep making trouble?" ”
"How can their hearts be so big and so black?"
"Even if I take those military salaries to feed the dogs, I won't give them a grain of grain or a copper coin!"
"Those military salaries, even if they are sent over, ninety percent of them will not reach the hands of ordinary soldiers, and they are not fattening those guys who should be cut with a thousand knives?"
"Want a military pay? Dream! ”
"Bang!"
Zhu Youxiao stood up abruptly and slapped the thick wooden table in front of him hard, "Pass the order, and in three days, start the official formation of the Five Divine Beast Field Corps!" ”
"Ten days later, the Five Divine Beast Legion and the Boy Guard, the whole army attacked! Towards Shanhaiguan! ”
"There is no military salary, but there are a lot of guns and soldiers of the new army!"
Zhu Youxiao almost roared and said angrily, "This time, we will not only clean up and completely control all the military towns and guards in Shanhaiguan and the Western Liaoning Corridor, but also push the battle line all the way to the Great Liao River Valley and give the Tartars a good bloodlet!" ”
He's really!
Originally, he wanted to slow down, and it would be another twenty days before he began to lead the army on the march.
And now it seems that for these traitors and traitors who have no kings and fathers, even if they are allowed to live one more day, they are polluting and wasting the air!
Anyway, after more than two months of vigorous preparations, all the preparations for the expedition have basically been completed, and the expedition is about ten days ahead of the plan, and there is no major problem.
It has been three days since the new army officers and soldiers poured out of the nest to suppress bandits, and Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting naturally returned to the capital with the soldiers.
The two who returned to the capital not only did not relax for a moment, but became even busier.
In the course of their actions, the officers and men of the new army have exposed all kinds of problems that need to be solved one by one.
The rewards and punishments of the soldiers should also be completed as soon as possible.
In addition, it is important to sort out all kinds of information obtained from various divisions and regiments, which is the most important thing.
Not to mention, His Majesty the Emperor ordered that the 600,000 troops of the new army should be transferred to the elite to form the unprecedented five-way divine beast field army.
There are many things, and Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting are so busy that they can't get to the ground.
After the anti-bandit army left a small number of officers and men stationed in various places, and most of the rest returned to the capital, in the past two days, Zhu Youxiao summoned five generals of the new army.
He was naturally afraid of these loyal pillars of talent, because he was too tired and tired, he was tired.
Yes, he used the same set that fooled Lu Jiude and Yan Yingyuan before, pretending to be a ghost, divided into two days, and successively used the craftsman's hammer to strengthen Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting, Cao Wenzhao, Cao Bianjiao, and Lu Jiude once.
Among them, Lu Jiude naturally gained the most, he was strengthened by the emperor three times, and the force value is now only under Zhu Youxiao, becoming the crown of generals.
However, the rewards and punishments are strict, which is what Zhu Youxiao must do.
Although Lu Jiude did not participate in this large-scale crackdown on bandits, he led the Yongwei Army and supported the construction armies in various places, and in terms of credit, he was much greater than Lu Xiangsheng and them!
Continue to strengthen him once, so that he can be worthy of Lu Jiude's wholehearted dedication.
And Lu Xiangsheng and the four of them were undoubtedly stunned, and they were even more desperate for the emperor, and they were shocked as gods.
Not only that, but the five generals were also given a +3 new short sword and a +3 big sword by Zhu Youxiao.
In this way, they are commended for their great achievements during this time.
At this time, the five generals were even more grateful, and they immediately bowed down.
The attribute of die-hard loyalty has taken root in their hearts.
