Chapter 70: The Fierce General is Like a Cloud

The first wind and rain drifted away

"Zhou Yuji, the deputy general of the Yongwei Battalion, visited the emperor!"

"Huang Degong, the general of the Yongwei Battalion, greets the emperor!"

"Yongwei battalion guerrilla Sun Yingyuan pays a visit to the emperor!"

……

In accordance with the order of official positions, the generals knelt down to meet Emperor Chongzhen with an excited face.

Although he is the Son of Heaven's own army, there are few opportunities to see the face of the sky, especially when it is close to him.

How excited is it?

In fact, they are not the only ones who are excited, but also Emperor Chongzhen's heart.

Well, this is Zhou Yuji, with a tiger's back and a beard, indicating that male hormones are very developed and fully meet the standards of a titan.

This is Huang Degong, every time he fights, he has to drink a few buckets of wine, and his strength is more courageous after drinking.

He likes to fight with an iron whip, and after each battle, the blood on the whip is stained on his wrists, and it takes a long time to blister it to be washed off, and his subordinates are called Huang Chuangzi.

Guerrilla Sun Yingyuan, strong as an ox, extremely strong, and a fierce general.

Seeing people, Emperor Chongzhen remembered some things about them.

Historically, in the ninth year of Chongzhen, that is, next year, 100,000 Jiannu entered the Saikou side, and the Yongwei Battalion, which had just been formed, participated in this war.

The Yongwei battalion fought for the first time, and the results were brilliant, killing more than 1,000 Jiannu, Sun Yingyuan, Huang Degong, and Zhou Yuji.

Among them, the performance of Sun Yingyuan and Huang Degong is particularly prominent.

Huang Degong successively fought in Liangxiang and Zhuozhou, and was promoted to governor after the battle, and Sun Yingyuan was promoted to deputy general.

Through the test of this war, the Yongwei Battalion lived up to expectations and stood out as a sword in the hands of the former Emperor Chongzhen.

After forcing the Qing army back, Sun Yingyuan and Huang Degong were ordered to enter Henan to suppress the rebels.

Although the strength of the army is only more than 10,000 people, the Yongwei battalion has killed tens of thousands of enemy troops in Henan, and the battle achievements are impressive.

It's a pity that Daming has been in a two-front battle, and the Yongwei Battalion, which does not have many troops, had to be divided into two and garrisoned in the north and south.

In the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Sun Yingyuan was unfortunately killed in a battle with Li Zicheng.

Sun Yingyuan is good at fighting, and he mostly cooperates with Huang Degong in the ranks.

After his death, the credit was also attributed to Huang Degong, so Huang Degong's name was particularly shocking to the world.

In the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, Li Zicheng's hundreds of thousands of troops set off from Xi'an to Beijing, all the way to the pass, but only met Zhou Yuji, the general of the Yongwei Battalion, in Ningwu.

The Yongwei battalion, which had only 4,000 soldiers and horses, fought a bloody battle with Li Zicheng's army of more than 100,000 for several days.

It's just that the surrender of Wang Chengyin, the chief soldier of Xuanfu, and Jiang Xiang, the chief soldier of Datong, made Li Zicheng strengthen his confidence in the Eastern Expedition.

Solving his worries, Li Zicheng was full of confidence and ordered Zhou Yuji to slaughter the city if he didn't surrender.

But even so, no one was willing to join the thief.

In the end, due to the lack of internal and external help, the soldiers were outnumbered, Li Zicheng with the help of artillery, the army broke through the city wall, and entered the city, and the fierce general Zhou Yuji took the lead and died in a bloody battle.

After Zhou Yuji's death, his wife led the daughters of other soldiers to swear to the death, and fought with Li Zicheng's soldiers in the streets, sacrificing their lives for the country.

Zhou Yuji died in battle, and Huang Degong at this time was ordered to conquer Zhang Xianzhong in Sichuan.

Obviously, none of the most capable Yongwei battalions of the Ming Dynasty remained in Beijing Gongwei Capital, and all of them fought bloody battles with the enemy in the northern and southern battlefields.

After the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the last Yongwei battalion Huang Degong was unified to the Southern Ming regime, and fought a bloody battle with Jiannu under the city of Nanjing, and finally committed suicide.

It can be said that all the generals of the Yongwei Battalion closed the curtain in the most tragic way, and did not live up to the love of the previous Emperor Chongzhen.

If it weren't for the two-front battle, this strong force of the Son of Heaven would not have been able to enter Beijing by relying on the fortifications of the passes along the way in Ningwu and Datong.

And if this is the case, whether Jiannu can finally enter the Central Plains of Dingding, I am afraid that there will be a question mark.

This is the Yongwei Battalion, an army led by eunuchs, which came out of the Four Guards Battalion and the Warrior Battalion, and is subordinate to the Jingshi Praetorian Guard, which guards the Son of Heaven.

Thinking of these, the current Emperor Chongzhen personally helped these brave generals up one by one, and said softly:

"Generals, please get up, in the future, the thieves will be destroyed, and it will depend on you to fight on the battlefield to save the people of Li from fire and water, and on the day of success, I will not hesitate to reward the position of the prince."

Sun Yingyuan and other middle- and lower-level generals were still seeing the Son of Heaven for the first time, and they were already excited, and when they heard Emperor Chongzhen's words of encouragement, their blood surged into their hearts.

"I am willing to serve the emperor to the death!"

The generals blushed and roared loudly.

Emperor Chongzhen smiled with satisfaction, and smiled very happily and sincerely.

Compared with Wenchen, he prefers to deal with these honest military men.

What's more, Emperor Chongzhen knew that they were all products that had passed the inspection, and their loyalty was quite guaranteed.

"Good work!"

Emperor Chongzhen started with Zhou Yuji, patted his broad shoulders with a smile, and then walked up to Huang Degong and thumped his strong chest.

In this way, along the ranking of the generals, until the generals, or beating their chests, or patting their shoulders, or stroking their arms, a soft word of hard work made every general's eyes red.

Where have they seen such a small trick as Emperor Chongzhen?

The Son of Heaven who is high up in heaven is so kind to these rude soldiers, the Son of Heaven is so gracious!

There is no return, only by being loyal and responsible, and fighting bloody battles on the battlefield, can we have a clear conscience.

Fierce generals are like clouds, and the military heart is available!

Emperor Chongzhen was very satisfied with the performance of the generals, these military men did not have as many twists and turns as Wenchen, let alone an acting school, this is the truest portrayal of their hearts.

Emperor Chongzhen said he was very happy.

Whatever you are happy to do, it is naturally a reward.

People work hard for me, they can't rely on small means, they must be benefited.

In this way, the monarch and the minister can last for a long time.

Moreover, for the safety of the throne and in order not to sing the coolness, this elite Central Field Army must be completely controlled.

"My warriors, I am very satisfied and relieved with your hard training!

Therefore, I decided to reward the Yongwei Battalion with 100,000 taels of silver to boost the morale of the soldiers, and continue to work hard to live up to my high expectations.

In addition, the Yongwei battalion should be expanded to 50,000 horses, and it is hoped that the generals will conscientiously select qualified soldiers, and that they should rather be short than excessive, and never overuse the number of soldiers, so as to reduce the combat effectiveness of the Yongwei battalion. ”

As soon as Emperor Chongzhen's words fell, everyone present knelt on the ground again, and shouted loudly in excitement, "Obey the holy decree!" ”

If you don't get excited, you can't do it!

The sudden expansion of the army and the rising tide will create countless positions, which means that the generals and colonels present will be promoted and make a fortune.

"Let's go, take me to meet the warriors of the Brave Guard Battalion!"

Emperor Chongzhen raised his hands weakly, asked everyone to get up, and commanded them.

He is preparing from top to bottom, so that every soldier can feel the kindness of the Son of Heaven.

Soon, the big drums in the army sounded, and the generals began to point the troops, and countless red figures in armor gathered from the barracks to the school field.

Emperor Chongzhen was so proud that he raised his legs and walked towards the center of the school to inspect and inspect his guards.

PS: Thank you for the book friend Yu Jingfeng for the reward, I admit it!
