Seeing Lu Xiangsheng, who had become a red man, the king of North Korea, Li Liang, knelt respectfully in front of the horse: "Governor Lu, you are the savior of our Korean country, and Xiao Wang has kowtowed to you on behalf of all the people of the Korean country!" He was about to kowtow, but before he could kowtow, he felt a strong hand stop him from kowtowing, and only heard a strong voice say, "Don't do this!" Don't thank me! First of all, I want to thank our Shengming's great tomorrow, and secondly, these soldiers who sacrificed their lives to kill the enemy regardless of their names! ”

The king of the Joseon Dynasty, Li Liang, immediately reacted, and kowtowed respectfully in the direction of the Ming Jingshi: "On behalf of the top and bottom of the Joseon Dynasty, the King of the Joseon Yi Liang is grateful to His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Tomorrow of Shengming!" Banzai! Banzai! Hooray! The civil and military officials behind him also knelt down and shouted in unison!

After the salute was completed, the king of North Korea, Li Liang, stood up and said to everyone: "Whether it is the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty or our soldiers of Korea!" You've done a great job! Thank you and the soldiers who died defending Korea on this land! This king will reward you well! Before that, please go back to the city to rest and eat and drink! Town! ”

All the soldiers below cheered at once!

Lu Xiangsheng got back on the horse and waved his big hand: "Enter the city!" ”

Soon, the team neatly entered the city, and when they entered the city, they saw the people kneeling on both sides of the road including the people who warmly cheered for the Ming Dynasty, all the Ming soldiers unconsciously straightened up, as if all the fatigue had disappeared, and they enjoyed this heroic feeling! On that day, the whole Seoul was singing and dancing, all the people celebrated each other, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty and the soldiers of North Korea were integrated, and they were allowed to eat and drink, talk and laugh!

After all the celebrations, the statistics of casualties were also on Lu Xiangsheng's case, a total of more than 3,568 enemies were killed, 432 wounded Tartars were captured, 459 cavalrymen were killed in our army, 282 infantry, 141 bird soldiers, and the total number of wounded was 1,318 people. This is only the casualties of our army, if you count the North Korean army。。。。。。。 Lu Xiangsheng is full of feelings, and the Houjin cavalry is worthy of being an elite soldier.

According to Lu Xiangsheng's orders, all the soldiers who died were cremated, and the ashes were carried back to Beijing by their comrades, looking at the raging fire in front of him, Lu Xiangsheng raised the wine jar and said: "You are all our heroes of the Ming Dynasty, I Lu Xiangsheng can have you heroic comrades-in-arms, I feel very proud, very proud!" You're all good! Rest assured! The brethren will take you home! Your relatives and the court will treat them well! I hope we will be brothers in the next life! Dry! As he spoke, he poured the wine from left to right.

"Brothers! Dry! All the Ming soldiers behind followed Lu Xiangsheng's movements, neatly aligned。。。。。。。

That night, Lu Xiangsheng wrote the situation here as a song and sent someone to the Beijing Division, the next morning, the war drums sounded, all the Ming soldiers lined up, embarked on the journey back to the division in victory, all the people of Seoul came out to say goodbye, to the heroes to send flowers, meat, wine, Lu Xiangsheng also nodded to signal not to disappoint the people's wishes, so the soldiers returned with a full load of the Korean conquest, there were two silver taels rewarded by the king of North Korea and the people to eat, drink, and become a hero, with military exploits, go back to Your Majesty and have a reward, Thinking about all of this makes me happy. Brothers! Take you home! Let's go! All the soldiers silently thought in their hearts, followed Lu Xiangsheng, and slowly moved away, while everyone in North Korea watched this heroic army gradually disappear from their field of vision, and only the flag symbolizing the Ming Dynasty fluttered forever in their hearts。。。。。。。

On the other side, Chongzhen also received Lu Xiangsheng's recital, and nodded with satisfaction: "I didn't disappoint!" Ha ha! Good! So he immediately summoned several bigwigs from the cabinet and the household department to discuss the issue of this reward, or the first assistant Shi Feng said suspiciously: "Your Majesty, just follow the usual practice to reward the reward, just a few thousand soldiers, the court still has this point, right?" ”

The others also nodded, and Chongzhen smiled: "I can take it, but I don't think there is anything new, and I want to add a small thing on the basis of this reward, this is my sudden idea, this little thing is called a medal, which can be worn on the chest, and different medals can be awarded according to the size of the battle, and the medal can be divided into bronze medals, silver medals, and gold medals!" What do you think? ”

Zhou Dunhou thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty! How big is this medal? How much does it weigh? ”

"It doesn't have to be that big! It's about the same length as our little finger, about the same width as our big thumb, and half the thickness of this sparse cover! Chongzhen gestured.

Guo Yunhou nodded and said, "Your Majesty!" That's doable! ”

And Sun Chengzong said: "Your Majesty's move can greatly improve the morale of the soldiers, and it will not cause much burden to the imperial court, and the old minister seconded it!" ”

Shi Fenglai and Xu Guangqi also seconded the proposal, and Chongzhen nodded and said: "This move will be implemented in the military branch in the future, as long as the soldiers who have made meritorious contributions to my Ming Dynasty can be awarded medals!" This pattern Xu Aiqing, your Ministry of Industry will find a good painter to design a pattern for me and all Aiqing to see, if you can, do it immediately, the returning heroes will soon go to Beijing! ”

"The old minister obeys!" Xu Guangqi said.

"Besides, what progress has there been recently, Xu Aiqing!" Chongzhen Road.

"Your Majesty! It is estimated that the cement will be successfully developed in a few days, and the information collected by SX shows that the planting of sweet potatoes is not bad, and even if it is not a bumper harvest, it can increase some rations for the people. As for other research, the flintlock pistol will be able to produce a prototype in about a month at the current pace. Xu Guangqi said.

"So good! Aiqing and the craftsmen have worked hard! Chongzhen said happily.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! It's not hard to wait! Xu Guangqi replied with a smile.

The previous prisoners of war all received the grain and sweet potato seeds issued by the imperial court and returned to SXSX's land reform under the leadership of Yang He in an orderly manner, occasionally encountered unreasonable landlords under the butcher's knife of the Hong butcher or obediently cooperated, most of the landlords are still very supportive, after all, the current land policy has saved a lot of displaced people, and they have also taken advantage of this to hire some people to start cultivating their own wasteland, as Guo Yunhou said, so much land as a landlord will go to cultivate? Where did the harvest come from without farming? And paying taxes is only 30% of the harvest, and 70% of the harvest, and I also make a lot of money, so it's better than no harvest, isn't it? Therefore, on the whole, the land reform is still going very smoothly, the people support this policy, and no one dares to get in the way, after all, there is a Hong butcher town, and there are Jinyi guards behind the officials, all of whom strictly implement the policies of the imperial court.

Looking at these reports, Chongzhen is pleased, as long as everything goes well, he can be more relaxed, and the imperial court can also be easier, on the other hand, according to the report of the investigation of the Shadow Dragon Guard, the defenders from the general soldier to the lowest gatekeeper soldiers and businessmen have participated in the traitorous behavior of selling grain to Houjin, forming a complete chain of interests, although Chongzhen asked Cao Wenzhao to pay attention to this matter, Cao Wenzhao also strengthened patrols, and also had some harvests, and captured a lot of grain, but there was still a lot of grain flowing to Houjin, But did he kill all the soldiers and soldiers? Didn't Datong make a mutiny? There are also businessmen who have all been killed, and they are killed directly without evidence, and it is not what they want to see when they cause panic! Chongzhen frowned.

"Thoroughly investigate all the facts of the crimes of Jiang Xuan, the chief soldier of Datong!" Chongzhen said angrily.

"Obedience! There's another piece of information! After Datong found out about this situation, he asked his subordinates to keep an eye on other important towns in the border pass, and after this period of observation, he found that the situation in Xuanfu was even more serious! The Shadow said.

"In that case, Hou Shilu, the chief soldier of the Xuanfu, will also investigate together!" Chongzhen commanded.

"Humble command! Let's go investigate! With that, the shadow disappeared.

After thinking about it, Chongzhen made a plan to let Cao Wenzhao pay attention to the situation on both sides, be ready at all times, and send a secret decree to Sun Chuanting, asking him to lead his elite 3,000 cavalry to Datong and cooperate with Cao Wenzhao to prevent accidents. After that, he instructed Wang Chengen to summon Luo Yangxing, the governor of Jinyiwei, to meet him.
