After the war, the Beijing division has not been so lively for a long time, the people of the Beijing division are concentrated on both sides of the road that the army must pass, looking at the city gate looking forward to the return of the heroes, with the return of the officials, He Kegang and Chen Mingyu led the army appeared in people's sight, first of all, He Kegang led the Guanning iron cavalry, one by one dressed in silver-white armor, wearing silver and black crossed helmets, in the sunlight looks particularly mighty, see the people are amazed, And all the knights also unconsciously put their chests higher, taller. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ。。。。。 Then there were their booty, horses, cattle and sheep, grain and the armor of the Houjin army, military flags, etc., the escorted vehicles slowly advanced, and the people of Beijing saw for the first time that the Ming Dynasty could capture so much loot in the war against the Houjin, especially the batches of sturdy war horses, and the sergeants who were maintaining law and order were drooling.

After the booty is a prisoner cart and the Liaodong sergeants and some sergeants of the five military camps on both sides, the prisoner cart and the prisoners of war in Houjin are all depressed, when the two white flags outside the gate appear in the moment, then they still have hope for life, as a result, the hope was shattered by the bombardment, and now there is only despair left in their hearts, they know in their hearts that what awaits them is death. Returning to their homeland in the afterlife is the mind of all prisoners of war。。。。。。。

Finally, the five military battalions led by Chen Mingyu, now they finally have the opportunity to show themselves, last time it was the brothers of the Shenji battalion who were majestic, and now it's their own, so they have to show off well, right? So one by one, they all took out the best mental heads, and according to the usual training, they stepped in a neat and orderly manner, and strode forward with their heads held high!

Seeing that all the Ming soldiers had entered the city, some people among the common people suddenly began to shout Long live the Ming Dynasty! Daming Wansheng! Slowly, this wave of sound converged into a huge wave that swept through the city of Beijing, and even Chongzhen, who was preparing to respond in the palace, heard it clearly, "It seems that Daming still needs more victories to enhance the confidence of the people from all over the country!" Chongzhen said secretly in his heart.

The army finally came to the square outside the palace, Chongzhen also came to the square under the protection of the Praetorian Guards, the square temporarily set up a platform, Chongzhen was standing on the platform at this time, everyone saw that His Majesty the Emperor was already waiting for him here, everyone was very excited, excited.

"Hooray! Banzai! Hooray! "All the officials and all the soldiers bow down neatly, long live the mountain!

"Zhong Aiqing and the heroes of the Ming Dynasty! Let's all go flat! Chongzhen smiled.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Everyone got up, and all the officials stood on both sides according to their respective official ranks, and after Chongzhen saw that everyone was standing, he cleared his throat and said: "Heroes of the Ming Dynasty!" Great work, everyone! First of all, I congratulate the soldiers on their victory! I am very happy that you have played the national prestige of our Ming Dynasty and the military prestige of our Ming Dynasty outside the Guanguan! You also successfully blocked the attack of the Tartars outside Jinzhou City, and saved the supplies and prisoners of war, you are all good! You are all the pride of my Ming soldiers! ”

"Wan Sheng! Wansheng! Wansheng! The soldiers shouted.

"Excellent! I hope that you can always maintain this momentum of indomitable, daring to kill the enemy, fearless, and even carry it forward! In the future, you will achieve greater glory! Chongzhen said excitedly.

"Wan Sheng! Wansheng! Wansheng! The soldiers shouted.

"Finally, for your rewards, the rewards will be unified by the military department and the household department after the return of all the triumphant heroes! The court will not treat heroes badly! In the past two days, the soldiers have rested in this Beijing Division! Use the best mental outlook to meet your military medals! Chongzhen smiled.

"Hooray! Banzai! Banzai! The soldiers shouted.

Chongzhen nodded, and then praised He Kegang and Chen Mingyu respectively, and finally ordered the prisoner sacrifice ceremony to begin, all the ceremonies were carried out according to the process, but the last step changed, according to the usual practice or the last practice was to pull them to the noon gate and cut them, but this time it was changed to all of them to be imprisoned in the prison, Chongzhen's reason is that all the prisoners of war will be disposed of after they are concentrated!

"Joke! That's all money! Let you cut it down, what did Lao Tzu use to blackmail Huang Taiji?! Chongzhen said secretly, I don't know what this idea would be if other ministers knew what it would be.

Immediately afterwards, Chongzhen left, and before leaving, he instructed the cabinet members to go to the Qianqing Palace collectively for a while.

Chongzhen sat on the dragon chair, drank tea, ate pastries, Sun Chengzong led Xu Guangqi, Cheng Jiming and Liu Hongxun in, everyone sat down after seeing the ceremony, and they all looked up at Chongzhen, not knowing what Chongzhen called them to discuss.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Aiqing has worked hard! Drink some tea and eat some pastries first! Chongzhen smiled.

Sun Chengzong and Xu Guangqi and Chongzhen have been together for a long time, so it is natural to thank them and start eating, but Cheng Jiming and Liu Hongxun sat on the side and looked at it awkwardly, neither eating, not eating.

"What? Isn't my food delicious? Chongzhen asked with a smile.

"Weichen doesn't dare!" Both replied at the same time.

"Then why don't you eat it?" Chongzhen continued.

"This 。。。。。。 Wechen is not hungry. The two replied at the same time, and Chongzhen felt that the two of them were not in the same heart.

"Eat some, all of you! Don't be too restricted! His Majesty doesn't like it in that way, so naturally. Sun Chengzong smiled and taught them his experience.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The two said at the same time. Then he began to eat in small bites.

Looking at their small bites, Chongzhen smiled secretly, how can this food be like a little girl, but he didn't show it, so Chongzhen continued: "The main reason for calling you Aiqing today is to discuss the handling of this prisoner of war!" ”

The four of them stopped eating at the same time and looked at Chongzhen, Chongzhen continued: "According to the ancestral system, these Tartars are directly pulled to the noon gate and cut down, right?" ”

All four nodded at the same time, and sure enough! Chongzhen shook his head helplessly and said, "I knew that it would be such a disposition, so I came to you to discuss!" ”

Sun Chengzong said: "Your Majesty, please speak!" Listen up! ”

Chongzhen listened, nodded and continued: "I thought that if these prisoners of war were cut directly like this, it would be too wasteful!" ”

Cheng Ji ordered to listen and said, "Your Majesty! What do you mean by that? ”

The other three also nodded at the same time, and Chongzhen continued: "I want to return all the prisoners of war to Huang Taiji when the time comes, including his son!" ”

"What?!" The four of them exclaimed at the same time, and Xu Guangqi said loudly: "Your Majesty! This is a must-do! Isn't this chilling to all soldiers? ”

Sun Chengzong frowned when he heard this, and seemed to have a clue, so he said, "Your Majesty continues!" ”

Chongzhen nodded: "Of course I won't return to Zhao completely!" I will ask Huang Taiji to pay for the silver to redeem these prisoners of war, of course, this silver will not be a small amount! You know, I'm short of money right now! Chongzhen smiled.

The four of them listened and nodded, but they didn't speak, and continued to look at Chongzhen, Chongzhen continued: "Of course, Huang Taiji will definitely give out this silver, no matter how much we pay, as long as it is not too excessive, we can discuss this specific amount, and of course we can't let them go back intact like this, so that they will not continue to harm my Daming when they go back to recuperate for a period of time, so I want to do something on this!" For example, you can let them take some hidden poison one or two days before the transaction, and this poison will not attack immediately, but will attack after three or seven days, and they will die directly. Anything like that! ”

The eyes of the four of them widened when they heard this, especially Cheng Jiming and Liu Hongxun, they couldn't imagine that His Majesty the Emperor, who was upright and wise in their hearts, would be so black-bellied. And Sun Chengzong and Xu Guangqi naturally didn't make a fuss because they had been with Chongzhen for a long time, the two looked at each other, nodded to each other, it seemed that it was passed, Sun Chengzong said: "This move is feasible!" Lao Chen recommended that this matter can be handed over to the prince and Zhu Gonggong for execution! Xu Guangqi seconded the proposal.

Although Cheng Jiming and Liu Hongxun did not conform to the fairness of the Celestial Empire, as long as they could crack down on the Tartars and protect the interests of the Ming Dynasty, they would naturally not object, so they also seconded it. Chongzhen nodded happily: "That's fine!" When the time comes, your cabinet will draw up a plan, and I will take a look! ”

"Obey the order!" All four replied at the same time.

"Your Majesty! The old minister thinks we can get ready to meet the Tartar messenger! Sun Chengzong said with a smile.

"That's what the teacher said! Even if I didn't, they would have come first to ask for the redemption of the prisoners of war! Then the Ministry of Rites will bother you Aiqing to inform you! Chongzhen said.

"Obey the order!" All four replied at the same time.

"There is also the matter of the construction of the cement road, which can also be implemented, and your cabinet has notified the six ministries and subordinate officials, four of which are assigned to your respective arrangements, three to those imperial relatives and noble merits who have lost their land, and the remaining three to the merchants of Beijing! Specifically, you discuss with Guo Shangshu and Bi Shilang, and then you can give me a proposal! Chongzhen commanded.

"It seems that Your Majesty is much better now than before! In this way, the reform outside the Beijing Division should be carried out smoothly! The four of them said at the same time, so they said at the same time: "Obey the order!" ”

"Then adjourn! I'm sorry for all of you! Chongzhen smiled.

The four of them saluted at the same time, "Wait for the resignation!" Then he withdrew and went to his own business.
