Chapter 172: The Honored Ones Affected

Of course, the so-called attack on Guyuan is that the Tartars sent people to shoot arrows at the head of Guyuan City, which is naturally considered an attack, so there is nothing to say.

Liu Jian's voice continued to sound in the main hall: "When the Tartar soldiers attacked Guyuan, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally led 5,000 cavalry to kill Guyuan, and in this battle, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince fought against more than 12,000 Tartar cavalry with 5,000 cavalry, and won a great victory. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince beheaded the generals to capture the flag, personally risked arrows and stones, beheaded more than 3,700 people, and killed the Tartar soldiers. ”

"Chased and killed fifteen miles, beheaded more than 760 people, captured more than 2,400 people, and fought more than 4,000 horses, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince made great contributions in this battle."

At the back of the question book is the praise of Zhu Houzhao, but Liu Jian still reads it very loudly, and he is frustrated, under such a victory, even if it is touted by the flesh, it is also deserved.

Besides, praising the prince in front of the emperor, or reading someone else's questionbook, there is no trace of this sycophant, and of course the tone must be frustrated, so that His Majesty can hear that he is slapping on the back. Liu Jian finished reading the inscription, and finally bowed down and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has broken the Tartar soldiers, stabilized the hearts of the Northwest Army and the people, and congratulated His Majesty!" ”

Xie Qian and Li Dongyang, who were standing behind Liu Jianjian, naturally hurriedly said: "Congratulations to Your Majesty!" ”

Zhu Youzhu sat on the dragon chair, barely keeping a smile on his face, and scolded his son in his heart. Naturally, it is good news, such good news is naturally impossible to hide from people, Zhu Houzhao is the prince, it is naturally impossible to be greedy for public falsehood, this point Zhu Youzhu consciously still understands his son, so it means that what is said in the question book is true.

His son really led the cavalry out of the city, and he personally led the troops to charge into battle, and 5,000 people attacked twice the land, which was too bold.

Once there is an accident, Zhu Youzhu doesn't dare to think down, but in front of the courtiers, Zhu Youzhu can't scold his son, right? I could only nod with a smile on my face and say, "Okay, that's great!" As if he felt that it was inappropriate to say this, Zhu Youzhu added: "The cabinet should draw up a charter for meritorious service!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Liu Jian hurriedly bowed down and agreed, and then said, "Do you want to pass on this title to the world?" ”

Zhu Youzhu nodded, and then said, "Pass it!" Tell the people of the world that our Ming Dynasty will not let the Tartars come. ”

Several cabinet scholars agreed, and then bowed their ways, in fact, the matter had reached this point, and it was already a little embarrassing. Because the matter of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince going to Beijing to the northwest has not subsided until now, and there are still people who have written to impeach this matter, as soon as this good news question book comes out, it must have been a lot of slaps in the face.

Of course, this is not the crux of the problem, the crux of the question is what to do next? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has made a meritorious service this time, 50 million or 10,000, and it is still a cavalry against the Tatar cavalry.

What is it? I'm afraid this kind of record can be traced back to the Taizong period, right? So the question is, what does such a record reflect? It reflects that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not only skilled in martial arts, bow and horse, but also reflects the Prince's good training. Everyone knows that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has trained 5,000 people in Xiyuan, but not too many people take it seriously, but who can ignore these 5,000 people now? It's not too much to say that it is the strongest soldier of the Ming Dynasty, right?

Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so capable, should the Crown Prince expand his army? Should the capital camp be handed over to the crown prince?

Let's not talk about the latter one, but should the first one be done? But if you do this, then Your Majesty can live a good life now, what do you want Your Majesty to think? But if you don't do this, will it make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince dissatisfied? Will it be separated from father and son? If so, then is it a turmoil in the DPRK?

Although several cabinet members were very happy, they were also worried, if this was the case, what would they do?

At this time, Zhu Youjiao, who was worried by them, was sitting on the dragon chair and was angry, he was not angry that his son had made meritorious service, he was very happy that his son had made meritorious service, and he was also very happy that his son was so strong, he should be strong and victorious to the ancestor, he was angry with his son's audacity. How bold do you dare to lead someone into battle, what do you think? It's still five thousand against one thousand twelve, and it's still in the field.

If this is just in case, Zhu Youzhu is really angry, and after glancing at He Neng below, Zhu Youzhu thought for a while and said, "Pass the decree to the prince and let him return to Beijing immediately." ”

Zhu Youzhu originally thought that his son would go to the northwest, at most to fight, but he didn't expect his son to rush into battle in person, so he paid it back and quickly caught it. After thinking about it, Zhu Youzhu was afraid that his son would be disobedient, and felt that a holy decree was not enough to be safe, so he said directly: "Send the decree to Qin Hong, let him supervise the prince's court, well, this secret decree!" ”

He Neng naturally didn't dare to ask anything, and hurriedly said: "Yes, Emperor, the slave and maid will immediately draft the decree of the celebrant supervisor." ”

Soon the news of the victory in the northwest spread throughout the capital, everyone first didn't believe it, and then it was shocked, of course, there were many embarrassed people, such as those who impeached Zhu Houzhao to go to the northwest, such as those in the northwest, but these people are thick-skinned, and continue to impeach Zhu Houzhao as the prince actually took the risk himself, which is not right, anyway, such a question book will not be cleaned up.

In addition to these inscriptions, these people also brought the nobles of the court by the way, and the impeachment was called a ruthless one.

During this period of time, for the sake of the salt merchant quota, these nobles jumped up and down, and they were very public, and many people couldn't see it for a long time, but they could be regarded as having seized the opportunity, how could they not be impeached.

The content of these impeachments is basically the same, that is, Xungui does not act, flies eagles and plays birds all day long, causes trouble everywhere, and has no ancestral bravery. Either they are making money everywhere, relying on the shadow of their ancestors but useless to the country, they are simply the moths of the country, the rice worms of the country, and they are too wasteful.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally went into battle, where are you? Are you not ashamed? What do you eat?

If it weren't for your uselessness, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would have gone into battle in person? Such rhetorical questions emerge one after another, and for a while, Xungui is about to become a street rat that everyone shouts and beats.

The older generation of nobles is also very popular, one by one to ask for war, what is for the country to kill and become benevolent, what must go to the frontier, sixty or seventy-year-old nobles are all on the book, one says more ruthless than the other, what can't destroy the Tartars would rather die on the battlefield, people can't see it crying and laughing, Zhu Youzhu is even bigger for a while, what is this called!

In addition to this, the older generation of nobles also began to teach the younger generation of nobles, the bamboo board was interrupted several times, and for a time the atmosphere of the entire capital was suppressed, and the business of those parties was greatly reduced, and the trouble was so loud that chickens and dogs jumped.

Zhu Houzhao, who is far away in the northwest, naturally doesn't know this, so what is Zhu Houzhao doing at this time? He was inspecting the wounded barracks.

On the battlefield, the hearts of the people after the war must be appeased, otherwise the hearts of the people will be scattered, the hearts of the people will be scattered, and the team will be difficult to lead. Zhu Houzhao soon began to act, first having people customize a wooden box, collect and burn the bones of the dead in the war, and then put it into the box, and the name of the dead soldier was written on the box.

In addition, Zhu Houzhao also customized a batch of certificates according to the style of the folds, with honor written on the front and iron blood written on the back.

In the certificate, it is written about the process of the battle and the brave battles of the people who died in the battle, and how many enemies were killed and wounded, on the title page, Zhu Houzhao will write in his own handwriting: Imperial Warriors, and below Zhu Houzhao will write the seal of the prince.

In addition to those killed in battle, seriously injured people will also have such a certificate, most of them are the same, but the title page is not written on the imperial warriors, but imperial warriors, Zhu Houzhao is also ready to return to Beijing to customize a batch of medals, including the Imperial Warrior Medal and the Imperial Warrior Medal, in addition to these two ranks, there are two other medals, such as the Imperial Warrior Medal and the Imperial Warrior Medal.

In addition to those who were killed in battle and seriously wounded, there were also those who killed a lot of enemies and made meritorious contributions, all of whom could receive medals and certificates.

For those who have won medals and certificates, Zhu Houzhao will introduce certain benefits in the future, such as land tax subsidies.

Of course, this subsidy is certainly not exempt from land tax like civil officials, but is paid according to the conversion of land tax into money, which is also to pave the way for future tax reform. This must be done, it is just a matter of time before the gentry pay for the grain in one acre. In addition, Zhu Houzhao felt that after returning to Beijing, he could prepare for the establishment of the Imperial Martial Academy.

Soldiers who have received the Medal of Warrior and the Order of Warrior can enroll in the school as a disciple of Enyin, and they can follow this example in the future.

The imperial court is not an official in Enyin, otherwise the quality of the officials is uneven, and it is really impossible to delay, and it can't be done before, but now that Zhu Houzhao has become famous in the first war, he can do this. The only problem is Dad's, and the rest is money, Zhu Houzhao believes that money is not a problem, and at the same time, he also believes that Dad's is not a problem.

In addition to preparing medals and certificates, Zhu Houzhao also personally visited the wounded barracks every day, because there were trained conscripts on the auxiliary side, and the medicine was also sufficient, and the atmosphere of the entire wounded barracks was not bad.

Everyone ate well, and Zhu Houzhao also released the news of rewards from time to time, so that those who were seriously injured could feel at ease and look forward to emotional injuries.

After calculation, Zhu Houzhao found that this was another large amount of money, fortunately, there were not many people killed in the battle this time, and the pension could be spent a little less, but the reward for beheading was a lot of money. Sure enough, fighting a war is fighting money, and every war costs a lot of money, and if you don't make money in war, it's really a loss-making business, and it's too much of a national strength.

After checking the wounded barracks and seeing that there was no problem, Zhu Houzhao breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned around and returned to his tent.

Although Qin Hong arranged a place for Zhu Houzhao in Guyuan City, Zhu Houzhao did not go, he still chose to live in the barracks, at this time, the soldiers needed Zhu Houzhao, the prince, to stay in the camp tent. The commander and the soldiers eat and live together, which is a good way to boost morale in this era, so Zhu Houzhao also chose to do so.

Seeing Wang Shouren walking in from the outside with He Neng, Zhu Houzhao could only smile helplessly, he should have come.
