Chapter 116: I am the home country
brushing his presence in front of the 450,000 troops under his command is also one of the reasons why Zhu Youzhen goes north to Huai'an every once in a while.
Now after ten years of training, he is already strong, burly and straight, and his thin physique obviously has a lot of muscles compared to before, coupled with his height, which is not short, he shows the majesty of the emperor and the demeanor of a leader after wearing a military uniform.
Looking at the burning eyes of hundreds of thousands of people in front of him, Zhu Youzhen knew that when the hormones of this kind of person were high, it was the best time to get closer to people, and it was also the best time to plant faith in people.
If you want to make people crazy, you must first make yourself crazy, and people can only infect others when they are emotional.
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen now seems to have turned himself into a fanatic of national supremacy, and directly raised his arms and shouted: "Kill the captive!" ”
The officials behind Zhu Youzhen also raised their arms and shouted.
And where did the hot-blooded young people below suffer from this infection, they were already bursting with hormones, as if they were full of heroism and almost wanted to erupt like a volcanic eruption, and then Zhu Youzhen and others raised their arms and shouted:
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Whenever he met a colleague in the army, he raised his arms and shouted "kill", which became a necessary etiquette for the guards from this time on.
At this time, the 123rd Guards Army had already established the establishment of the army to the team, and was waiting for Zhu Youzhen to personally present the military flag to the 123rd Guards Army.
However, before Zhu Youzhen presented the flag, he was still ready to say a few words, and shouted loudly:
"Soldiers! Seeing that the Chinese New Year is approaching, I know that you are very homesick, and I am also homesick like you, and many of you are even from the north like me, and have lost their homes, sitting alone in this southern country and watching the Tartars of the north kill our parents, occupy our fields and homes, and dig our ancestral graves! ”
These words came out of the mouth of Emperor Zhu Youzhen, and the officers who stood in front of them, most of whom were from the north, couldn't help but have tears in their eyes.
The customs of the Chinese Han people's home and country are particularly appropriate when they return to spring.
Therefore, Zhu Youzhen's words easily aroused the emotions of these officers and soldiers in front of him.
"But rest assured, sooner or later, I will take you back! Fight the Yangtze River and the Yellow River and recover the northern capital! ”
"Regain the Northern Capital!"
The officers and soldiers below shouted in unison.
"Angry hair rushes to the crown, leaning on the railing, Xiaoxiao rain rests. Raise your eyes, look up to the sky and roar, strong and fierce. Back then, the Yuejia army was able to cleanse the universe, and now our guards can also sweep away the Tartars, not only to protect the splendid mountains and rivers in the south, but also to recover the old capital as soon as possible, and revitalize the unification of the rivers and mountains of my Ming Dynasty! ”
Zhu Youzhen continued to raise his arms and shout: "The rivers and mountains are unified!" ”
"The rivers and mountains are unified!"
"The rivers and mountains are unified!"
"The rivers and mountains are unified!"
The enthusiasm of the officers and men below is still high.
Zhu Youzhen was very satisfied with this, and was in a good mood: "Give the flag, beat the drum, and order the commanders of the three armies to step forward!" ”
That's it.
It was the rumbling drum beating, and the noise rumbled like a storm throughout the vast school field.
"Zhou Yuji, the chief officer and governor of the First Guards Army!"
Kim Hyun, director of the General Political Office of the Generalissimo's Office, sang loudly.
"Here!"
Zhou Yuji, dressed in armor, appeared at the front of the queue, looking at His Majesty the Emperor Zhu Youzhen on the stage with burning eyes.
Zhou Yuji never thought that he would be remembered by His Majesty the Emperor today, and he was suddenly summoned into Beijing, followed His Majesty all the way south, and now led an army alone, forgiving him for being a seven-foot iron-blooded man, and people couldn't help but burst into tears.
Zhu Youzhen personally awarded Zhou Yuji the number of the First Army of the Ming Royal Guards, and personally patted Zhou Yuji's shoulder: "Defend your homeland and recover the northern capital!" ”
"Defend your homeland and recover the Northern Capital!"
Zhu Youzhen only said this, and he wanted to deeply imprint this ideal in the hearts of every officer and soldier of the guards through a series of programmed military etiquette.
Let them know what they're fighting for.
Zhou Yuji followed along, and he also knew that he could only die if he spilled his blood on the expedition of the Northern Expedition in the future.
"He Xin, the chief officer of the Second Guards Army, and Li Mingrui, the governor!"
He Xin, the imperial horse supervisor, and Li Mingrui, the governor of Huaiyang, also appeared in front of Zhu Youzhen in military uniforms.
As a former eunuch in the palace, He Xin didn't expect that he would become a general with 150,000 elites under his command today.
Li Mingrui also bit his lips, he never thought that he could stand in front of His Majesty the Emperor with a sword, and suddenly, he was no longer a weak and bullying scholar, but a general who shouldered the heavy responsibility of the Northern Expedition.
"He Xin, do you still remember the time when I was trapped in the Forbidden City with you, remember, you are my most trusted person, you are my shadow, anyone in the world can betray me, but you He Xin can't!"
Zhu Youzhen said that he personally straightened He Xin's clothes.
He Xin directly burst into tears, indeed as Zhu Youzhen said, when he was waiting for Zhou Yuji's reinforcements to rush to the capital for a period of time, almost no one still accompanied Zhu Youzhen, only He Xin and other eunuchs.
To this day, those thirty or so eunuchs are still the backbone of the Guards.
"Please rest assured, the slave is a dog of Your Majesty, no, more loyal to Your Majesty than a dog!"
He Xin didn't wait for Zhu Youzhen to say, so he stood up suddenly, raised his arms and shouted: "Defend your homeland and restore the northern capital!" ”
"The right concubine Li Mingrui, the first to suggest that I move south is you, you are a person as your name suggests, wise and discerning, I simply pull you to take charge of the two places, that is, I rely on you as an important minister, he is afraid that you will also be in charge of the cabinet, good students and He Xin are good partners, you can't learn from such dull people, discriminate against my family slaves, the inner court and the outer court are my left and right siblings, if you want to be an auxiliary minister in the world, you have to join hands with the inner court!"
Li Mingrui couldn't help but get excited in his heart, he didn't expect His Majesty to personally say that he wanted him to be the first assistant of the cabinet in the future.
"Wechen will never forget Your Majesty's kindness, please rest assured, Wechen will definitely manage the Second Guards Army with Gonggong He, kill all the Tartars for Your Majesty, defend your homeland, and restore the northern capital!"
"Lead the banner!"
Zhu Youzhen said and handed the military flag of the Second Guards Army to the two of them.
"Liu Fangliang, the chief officer of the Third Guards Army, and Li Banghua, the governor!"
Liu Fangliang, who had a big waist and a round waist, stood up with his head held high, and Gu Yanwu, Wang Fuzhi and others behind him had already fallen in love with this short-term coach, and couldn't help but smile and look at Liu Fangliang with excitement.
"Liu Dahari, you and I remember, from now on, you are not a thief, nor a general of a rogue, you are the general of my guards, the army you lead is not for promotion and wealth, but for the people in the world who have suffered as much as you Liu Fangliang, now, the Jiannu Tartars are wantonly slaughtering your brothers and sisters in your homeland, and they are waiting for you to go back and save them, you know!"
"Yes!"
Liu Fangliang shouted and raised his arms and shouted: "Defend your homeland and restore the northern capital!" ”
"Li Banghua, although you and I are monarchs and ministers, but we are also close friends, all the way south, you and I share weal and woe, I don't know how many days and nights we have talked about this day, now I hope you will abandon the habit of not being close to the common people, and you must have a good relationship with Liu Fangliang!"
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, Weichen has already bowed to General Liu and drank chicken blood wine!"
These words came out of the mouth of a former high-ranking official, which made Zhu Youzhen and the people present laugh to some extent.
