Chapter 231: Unexpected News......
"If he can survive the remnants of the Tile Thorn's counterattack, then I will naturally pay the balance." Zhu Qizhen said the last sentence very lightly, but the meaningful smile on his face made people feel that this sentence that should be an honest and trustworthy promise has completely changed its taste.
Hearing this obviously ill-intentioned remark, Yuan Bin couldn't help but shudder. Even if he really succeeded, but if he wanted to unify the entire Dzungar Department and suppress the ambitions of other tribes, Yuan Bin himself didn't believe that this old man, who was already over the age of old, could still have such vigorous energy.
No matter how much Ah Ra is, he is only a powerful clan in the entire Dzungar Ministry, although he is very heavy on the Dzungar Ministry, but he is not the only heavyweight player in the Dzungar Ministry. For example, although the strength of that Alechu is slightly inferior to Ala, he is also shrewd, and more importantly, ruthless.
What's more, in addition to the disputes within the Dzungar Ministry, there are also those steppe tribes and clans that do not belong to the Dzungar Ministry, but are they really stupid? Wouldn't they take advantage of the chaos of the tile spurs to plunder the profits?
Yuan Bin could fully imagine that once the old Ah Ra, who had been blinded by hatred, really did this, then the seemingly powerful Tile Thorn Empire that had just been established was likely to fall and collapse overnight.
Thinking about Zhu Qizhen's seemingly slow and careless layout, but in fact he is insidious and vicious to the extreme, it seems that compared with His Majesty the Emperor Taishang, he who has always thought that he has the talent of the auxiliary country is really as pure as the little white flower on the grassland.
"On the other hand, I have to see if that Shi Heng guy is on the Tao, if he is not on the Tao, I don't want to leave a nail by my side in the future." Zhu Qizhen turned his head to look at the southwest, and sighed faintly. Yuan Bin couldn't help but be silent, and also looked at the southwest direction, Zhu Qizhen took a deep breath, let out a loud shout, and galloped towards Xuanfu City.
In the barracks, the soldiers were still sweating, and Yang Jun and Shi Biao continued to supervise the training of the soldiers in the camp, because Zhu Qizhen had already given them a positive answer. In five months, half a year at the latest, he will personally lead this army, and he will go to the grassland, sweep the heroes of the grassland, and raise the national prestige of the Ming Dynasty.
-------------------- looking at these heroic soldiers, Yang Jun's heart couldn't help but rise with more emotion. In just a few months, he was able to train a team of veterans who were no less than those of the long-standing battle formation, and even far superior to the emperor's pro-army of other armies in terms of military discipline and courage.
As long as they can experience the baptism of the battlefield, Yang Jun is 100% sure that they will transform into the strongest, bravest, and most disciplined elite division in this land.
Yang Jun really has to admire the emperor who always likes to laugh badly and makes many tricks, but he can treat people with sincerity, can come up with such a novel and extremely effective way to train soldiers, is this still the Zhu Qizhen who didn't even know how to command the army at the beginning, and let Wang Zhen kill the eunuch like a puppet?
And the most important thing is that in the battle of Dushikoubao, 8,000 thorns and tartars were killed, but since the defense of Beijing, the Ming Dynasty has won an unprecedented victory, such a record is to enter Beijing to offer prisoners, and it is not an exaggeration for the emperor to sacrifice to the temple, but when the son did something today, he did nothing.
didn't even let them put a fart to let them take prisoners of war into Beijing, they were rewarded with some money, and they were added to the honor, this kind of practice, don't say it's yourself, I'm afraid that the Xuanfu people feel cold, and they pull state affairs and personal grievances together, and the prime minister can support the boat in his belly, not to mention that you are still the emperor of the Ming Empire, we are serving the country, fighting on the battlefield, but in exchange, it is just a few words of light and fluttering words of commendation, such a son of heaven, he Yang Jun is really a little contemptible.
And look at what Zhu Qizhen did, not to mention the others, it is the reward he just heard, this stroke is much more generous than today's, and more importantly, he can understand the soldiers, when he heard that he wanted to build a Heroic Shrine, Yang Jun felt at that time that being able to be loyal to such a superior person, even if he died, it was worth it.
It seems that what the ancients said is still reasonable, the heavens will descend on the people, and they must first work hard and work their muscles and bones, but now Zhu Qizhen, who is the emperor, still wants to descend to the great task...... As soon as he thought of this, Yang Jun's heart suddenly shuddered, and he quickly shook his head, putting this idea behind him, and doing his own things first, those things that have not happened yet, or are about to happen, are beyond his control.
Besides, compared with Zhu Qiyu, Yang Jun also felt that Zhu Qizhen was far more qualified, sitting in the supreme position representing the imperial power.
And Shi Biao, wearing the close-fitting and straight military uniform, was as straight as a flagpole, his eyes were firmly staring at the soldiers who were swinging his knife and slashing, and his thick eyebrows were tightly locked together, for Zhu Qizhen, he had developed from the beginning of contempt, to doubt, to now, and respected from the bottom of his heart.
Although he did not make a wish for himself to be an official, he gave himself a stage, a stage to be able to show and prove his worth, Shi Biao found that he preferred his current life, being with his comrades in the barracks, and fighting strong enemies with Pao Ze on the battlefield.
Instead of wandering in the streets and alleys of the Jingshi looking for flowers and asking willows, the words that flattered and praised himself by his side in the past now look back on it, making Shi Biao feel disgusted. He deeply remembered that when he returned to Xuanfu after the great victory in the first battle of Dushikoubao, Zhu Qizhen, His Majesty the Emperor, just patted his shoulder cordially and said. Good work...... But just this sentence, as well as the eyes full of approval and recognition, made Shi Biao feel that this was the biggest praise in the world.
However, what made Shi Biao faintly worried was his uncle's attitude towards the emperor. After all, Shi Biao knows his uncle very well, and when his son ascends to the throne today, with the support of Yu Qian, his uncle can ascend to the sky in one step and become the chief military officer of the powerful side, holding 100,000 elites. If the contradiction between the Son of Heaven and the Emperor is on the surface, what choice will his uncle make?
His uncle's great benefactor Yu Qian, the loyalty of the military department to the Son of Heaven, it can be said that everyone in the world knows that this is located in Shangshu, and he is one of the most important heroes of today's son's throne, he can't betray today's son, and his uncle is a bit of a dead-eyed person, I'm afraid that when the time comes, there is a good chance that he will follow Yu Qian's line.
This is what annoys Shi Biao the most, and the last thing he wants to see is that his uncle stands on the opposite side of the emperor. From Zhu Qizhen's actions, Shi Biao also faintly smelled a trace of unusual smell, but he was helpless, after all, he really didn't have the ability to convince his uncle. I only hope that some miracle will happen, at least, to be able to keep my uncle neutral until the situation is clear, it will already be a blessing from heaven.
-------------------- at this moment, in the General Military Mansion of Datong Town, Shi Heng, who had a square face, a tall body, and a knee-length beard, was sitting according to the case, with a pair of big eyes, and was looking at the guest in front of him who was already too familiar with him with doubtful eyes: Guo Shun, the eunuch of Datong Town.
Since last year, Shi Hengpei Zhenshuo General Yin, Shuai Jing Army of 30,000 people, patrolling Datong, and out of the town of Datong, has dealt with this town guard eunuch Guo Shun, I have to say, although this Guo Shun is white and beardless, he looks very unmanly, but after all, he is a eunuch, and there is no one below, how can he be a man?
However, Guo Shundi's surname is quite bold and generous, and he treats people quite sincerely, at least, since Shi Heng went to Datong, he has not suffered a trace of his difficulties, but has often been taken care of by him, and it cannot be said that he is taken care of, after all, he Shi Heng is today's favorite general, and he is extremely reused.
However, Guo Shun, who deliberately befriended Shi Hengdi, gave him something, something that made him equally attractive in addition to power, that is, wealth, a large sum of money, wealth that can almost dazzle people's eyes and provoke people's hearts. Soon, the two gradually changed from a colleague relationship to a community of interests, and they were solid allies with a very solid economic foundation.
Guo Shun raised his hand with a smile and waved, and naturally someone carried one or two large boxes that were extremely heavy into the hall. "General, I'm here to hand over to you the proceeds from last month. Last month, the amount of Xuanfu was a little larger, fortunately, our Datong is now digging the law, otherwise, I'm afraid I can't really be satisfied. ”
Seeing the two big boxes, I am afraid that it is a large wooden box with at least two or three hundred catties of content, Shi Heng's face that has always been smiling towards Gou Yan couldn't help but feel a little more pleasant, and arched his hand towards Guo Shun. "Thank you, Grandpa Guo."
"What did the general say, let's talk about it, we have money, everyone will send it together, not to mention that if it wasn't for the general to speak in front of the Son of Heaven for our family last time, I'm afraid that our family would have gone back to Beijing to hang up a leisurely errand, how can there be any wishful thinking today?" Guo Shun hurriedly got up and returned the salute, and the thoughtful number of salutes made the smile on Shi Heng's face a few more points. The mouth was very light and modest: "Where, with Guo Gonggong, my Datong border town can be peaceful and stable, even if Guo Gonggong does not look for Shi, Shi will also think of himself as the national society and make a statement to the Son of Heaven." ”
"General Gao Yi, our family remembers it in our hearts, and he said that there will be a good reward." Guo Shun sat back in his seat with a grateful face, lifted the teacup and took a sip. "By the way, a few days ago, our family sent filial piety to the palace, but I unexpectedly heard a news......"
