It was also because of Wang Zhaokun's active coordination that everyone in the "Red Banner Army" who went out of the customs and lined up was equipped with two layers of armor.

Thanks to its impeccable defenses, the casualties of the infantry array when it was diffused by the Tartars' feathered arrows were not worth mentioning.

In the end, only a dozen or so of the unlucky guards were shot into the eyehole and air hole of the armor by the arrow, causing four deaths and nine serious injuries, and most of the other seven or eight hundred were slightly injured or slightly injured.

The greatest casualties were the fierce cavalry, they encountered resistance when they pursued the wounded soldiers, although in the end they cut off more than 100 heads, captured more than 200 wounded war horses and returned victorious, but lost more than 150 people.

Wang Zhaokun was born in two lists, and he was very good at writing articles, describing the battlefield he saw with his own eyes vividly, and especially introduced the past of Yangguli, the master general of Jiannu who was beheaded.

The victory was sent to the Beijing Division, and the military and civilian officials, including the emperor and the concubine, were already a little aesthetically fatigued, and even Xiao Kunxing was not as excited as when he first learned of the "Yanmen Pass Victory".

Since the general of the conquest raised troops into Shanxi, there has been a "great victory at Yanmen Pass", followed by a "great victory at Yingzhou", followed by a "great victory at Yangfangbao", "a great victory at Yatou Pass", and now a great victory at "Ningwu Pass".

The "Red Banner Army" has become synonymous with victory, and the military and civilians have great trust in this heroic unit! Huang Han's prestige was unprecedented, and the "Sifang Express", the Sifang Money Bank, and all the transactions affiliated with the "Red Banner Army" were prosperous.

Propaganda is everywhere, and the "Red Flag Daily" constantly publishes articles and advertises them widely.

Now the military and civilians and eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty know that buying goods or services related to the "Red Flag Army" is not only to obtain value-for-money goods, but also to contribute to the "five-year Pingliao".

The hotly discussed victory of "Ningwu Pass" this time is completely different from the previous great victories, it is the troops of the "Red Banner Army" who stayed behind to assist in the defense of Ningwu Pass, lined up outside the city to meet the main force of the Nu chieftain who personally led the reinforcement of Shanxi.

The "Red Banner Army" not only had the audacity to go out to meet the battle, but also won the battle, and it is said that the slave chieftain could not afford to lose and fell off his horse on the spot, and he did not know whether he would die or die.

As a result, the storyteller of the restaurant tea shop has compiled too many versions of the story of the slave chieftain falling from the horse, and there are many stories of the puppet Manchu Emperor Chongde who was vomited blood three liters, was knocked out of his mouth full of teeth, and fell half-body.

Every time I heard a scholar tell me that the slave chief had fallen into a dog and eaten, the Han people who listened to the book applauded......

Emperor Chongzhen was excited by the good news that kept coming back, and at this time he didn't think deeply about how to get along with the general in the future, and he only felt honored to have the same hatred for the enemy.

When the platform was played, the emperor who was in a good mood and the excited ministers discussed how to reward the meritorious soldiers, and they reached an agreement on the same day, and a holy decree was issued.

In the face of tens of thousands of slave chieftains, the main general Fang Liandong who dared to line up to resist the enemy was generously gifted by the imperial court, and the prince Shaobao was promoted to the chief military officer of Changping, Yin Yizi was a hundred households of Jinyi Wei, and the civil and military generals who participated in the war in Ningwuguan were promoted to two levels.

Wang Zhaokun, the patrol of the imperial history, got the two-level title and had the fifth rank, and the fierce tiger got the crown prince Shaobao honor......

At the same time, the generals of the "Red Banner Army" participating in the war have been promoted, and there are many people who have the false titles of Left Governor, Right Governor, Governor Tongzhi, Governor Signing, etc., and Hanzi, Song Pengfei, Sang Yu, etc., also have a son of Yin Jinyi and Hundreds of Households.

Chongzhen lamented that Huang Han was full of talents, and an unknown Fang Liandong had never heard of it before, and he dared to go out to face the main force led by the slave chief himself.

This courage alone should be commended, and in this battle, the "Red Banner Army" also killed Yanguli, a pseudo-Qing veteran who had the title of duke, and wiped out more than 3,000 Jiannu and Tartar elites.

Even Chongzhen had heard of the name of the veteran general Yanguli, and knew that this person was a famous general in the old slave period, and was one of the main generals who broke the Juniper army formation during the Battle of Sarhu.

Unexpectedly, this executioner, who didn't know how many Ming soldiers he had killed, actually folded under Ningwu Pass and died in the hands of a young general Fang Liandong who had just learned his name today.

In the afternoon, Chongzhen, who had completed several urgent instructions, sighed in the imperial study: "Why is the general able to train so many elite soldiers? Why are the elites of the Ming Dynasty and the nine sides not as good? ”

Wang Chengen said: "Your Majesty, the slave maid thinks that the biggest reason is that the rewards and punishments are clear, and the generals do not drink the blood of the soldiers and share the weal and woe with the robes.

The Duke of Liao took the lead in almost every battle, did not pay attention to food and clothing, and barbecued meat and drank wine with ordinary soldiers during the war. ”

Chongzhen sighed: "Corruption is enough to destroy the country!" It is easier said that civilian officials do not love money and military attaches do not hesitate to die, but it is extremely difficult to do. The general who was captured did not want to enjoy the favor of the soldiers, of course, he could win the hearts of the army.

It can be seen that the 'five-year Pingliao' cannot be a mirror, maybe it can be completed ahead of schedule, and after the pacification of Dongnu, I must increase our efforts to rectify the rule of officials and the Ming Dynasty! ”

Seeing that the Son of Heaven was happy, Wang Chengen waved his hand outside the imperial study, and after a while, sixteen eunuchs moved four heavy large boxes.

The emperor looked at Wang Chengen and asked, "What good things did the eldest companion bring?" It's heavy! ”

"Back to Your Majesty, just now the general's beloved concubine Si Le Chuchu and another concubine Xu Miaoyan entered the palace to visit the queen and Empress Yi'an Zhang, and learned that His Majesty needed to spend silver everywhere, so he specially sent the dividend of 40,000 taels of silver from the city that never sleeps this year in advance."

"I see, you can do these things, you don't need to bring them here."

"The slave maid is because the Huang family sent all the new coins, so it is troublesome, and I am thinking about moving it to show Your Majesty."

Chongzhen was really interested, and when he came to the four big boxes, Wang Chengen opened them one by one, and suddenly the money in the imperial study was shining.

The emperor took out a few gold coins and asked, "Is this the gold coin that costs 10,000 wen and 10 taels of silver?" ”

Wang Chengen said: "That's right, there are words on the front and back." ”

"Well, it's good, it's really exquisite, I don't know how it is?"

About eighty percent of the Huang Han coinage is true, but it will not be shouted all over the world, this matter is as secret, coupled with the novel technology on the market for a short time, no one can accurately judge the amount of gold, silver and copper.

"The slave is not good, and she is not an expert, but it is estimated that she should look like eighty or ninety."

The emperor looked at the silver dollars, copper plates, and copper coins one by one, and found that although the materials were different, the craftsmanship was exactly the same, and the copper coins were no less exquisite than gold coins.

He said: "Remember to keep an eye on this matter in the future, and report it in time if you find anything wrong with the new coin." ”

Wang Chengen said: "The slave and maid receive the order! ”

Chongzhen thought for a while and said: "It's rare to capture the general's concubines and think about the queen, I should give them some rewards, so let's give Chu Chu the rank of Shanggong and the other concubine Si Le grade!" ”
