"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Ma Sande and Lang Shaozhen glanced at each other, and slandered in their hearts, what is this called, the marshal said that he wanted to rehabilitate Mao Wenlong with military merits, now it's okay, he got a count of the Ming Dynasty, what's the use of this title? and they cannot exchange it for silver.

Fan Jingwen and the others looked at each other, it was nothing to be knighted, but the border general was knighted, how could the local governor be restrained? Isn't the customization of Wen Yuwu broken?

Meng Zhaoxiang, the right attendant of the Criminal Department, said suddenly: "Your Majesty, Qi Shuai fought in the south and the north back then, and he made outstanding achievements, and he was not promoted to a famous knight. ”

University scholar Fan Fucui said angrily: "It's ridiculous, you are really pedantic, Qi Shuai was in the sea in Yanqing, there was a rebellion of the Japanese invaders, although the northern captives often entered the Kou, it was just a plague of moss, now there are rogues in the country, and there are strong captives outside, if there are no rewards and punishments, how can the front-line soldiers die?" ”

"Okay, don't quarrel, Li Xingzhi is the king of Tartar, the merit is in Sheji, I have decided to add Li Xingzhi as Penglaibo, hereditary replacement, if he can pacify Liaodong for me, I will not hesitate to reward the prince."

After that, he looked around at the ministers and said, "If you can capture the king of Tartar, I can also make a prince and a marquis." ”

Chongzhen made a final decision, he also had no choice, the imperial treasury was empty, and he couldn't take out money and food to reward the three armies, and today he mentioned Mao Wenlong's matter, if he didn't give a reward, who knows if this Li Xingzhi will have two hearts.

"Your Ministers obey!"

The ministers of civil and military affairs knew that the matter of the feudal uncle was irreversible, so they had to bow down and receive the order.

The waiter Cai Yi said with deep joy: "Your Majesty, the minister has heard that the Holy Son of Heaven is in power, when there is a famous minister and tiger will come to the world, although there is a catastrophe in the country, but there is Baoding General Huang Wenchang to break the Tartars, Xue Ge Lao also briefly pulled Peng Laibo in the barren mountain, so there is the victory of Gaoyang, the victory of Laizhou, the minister for His Majesty, for the Ming Congratulations!" ”

Ministers, look at me, I look at you, so I had to bow down the mountain and shout: "The ministers congratulate Your Majesty and congratulate Daming." ”

Xue Guoguan glanced at Cai Yishen approvingly, this minister and tiger general said, it's really wonderful, the tiger will be Huang Wenchang and Li Xingzhi, who else can that minister be if it's not me Xue Guoguan?

Clinker Ma Sande said again: "Your Majesty, my family is handsome, there is still a piece of music, please Your Majesty punish him for the crime of arbitrariness." ”

"Oh, Li Shuai still has a song, Xue Qing bothers you to read it again!"

"The old minister obeys!"

Xue Guoguanfu took over the song from Ma Sande, and read aloud: "After the minister was awarded the title of Leyden in the battle of Gaoyang, he led his troops to the north. ”

"Ni Pet, the chief soldier of Shandong Town, thought that Jinan had few soldiers, not enough to hold on to the east, so he was mad, killed Tang Yunyu, the deputy envoy of Jinan, according to the training of the deputy envoy Zhou, arrested the Shandong Yan Ministry and Jinan officials and His Royal Highness the King of De, intending to surrender, the ministers received the blood letter of the Yan Ministry, and had to act without authorization, and broke Ni Pet in Lixia County, intercepted the officials of Shandong and His Royal Highness the King of De, and stopped the general Zhu Changshu of Fengguo, Zhu Changshu, the fourth general of Fengguo, and others died in the hands of the chaotic army in the melee."

"The minister wanted to keep Jinan, but Ni was in trouble, the morale of Jinan has been lost, and the minister had no choice but to ask His Royal Highness King De to transfer to Leiden, and the minister killed the general, transferred the national domain, and asked His Majesty to surrender ......."

Chongzhen was stunned, where is this to condemn the crime, this is obviously to invite credit to me, if King De falls into the hands of the Qing army, will this Ming face be gone, but I have given the title, how can this be rewarded? The gold and silver must be gone, and the Dongyu has been in Kou for more than half a year, and the Cao Yun has long been cut off, to put it mildly, there is not even a reward for the Qin army to enter the guard.

Wang Chengen also looked at Ma Sande who was kneeling on the ground with resentment, are you really stupid or fake stupid, if you don't take out this piece earlier, it will be difficult to deal with the emperor now.

"Have you ever brought a handwritten letter from the Yan Academy?"

Yang Sichang obviously saw the embarrassment of the emperor, got up and asked, he also estimated that this matter might not be faked, after all, Li Xing's words were conclusive, King De and Yan Jizu were both in Leiden, and now they have asked for a reward, if they help it, wouldn't the emperor be angry.

"Brought, brought."

Lang Shaozhen knelt for a long time, her legs and feet were already sore and unbearable, she got up tremblingly, and took out Yan Jizu's letter from her sleeve pocket.

Yang Sichang snatched it, opened it, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, there are the big seals of the Yan Ministry and the Jinan Mansion and the attached signatures of Song Xuezhu on the letter, so it should not be faked." ”

"Okay, the general army of Lydon is loyal to the king, dedicates the head to the emperor, and saves the country's clan, so how should I be rewarded?"

Chongzhen couldn't come up with an idea, but kicked the ball to a group of civil and military officials.

Ma Sande said: "Your Majesty, my marshal doesn't want to be rewarded, he wants a sea ship, or a craftsman who can build a sea ship, he said that our Leiden army is determined to pacify the captives, so we must cross the sea to the east, burn the war to southern Liaoning, burn to Shenyang, and let the Tartars know that my Ming is not insultable." ”

"How many ships does he want?"

Xue Guoguan's heart moved, this Li Xingzhi's fight against the tartar is like playing, if he really wants to be captured, he can't say that it will fall on him, after all, since the East Captives entered the Kou, he is the only one who has made a great victory.

Ma Sande snapped his fingers and said: "Fifty bird boats, one hundred transport ships, no less, Kong Youde took away the sea ships in Dengzhou when he joined the slaves, and we are not familiar with water warfare, if there are few warships, we really have no certainty of victory." ”

"Ah......h

All the courtiers exclaimed, if there were so many sea ships and equipment, it would not be hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.

Chongzhen was also depressed, and the generals under his command were desperately planning for themselves, but he couldn't take anything, which made him even feel a little guilty.

"Your Majesty, my marshal said, if the imperial court does not have a ship to transfer, we can build it ourselves, but we are short of iron and craftsmen in Leiden, and we also lack professionals who understand how to make sea ships, he heard Xue Ge Lao in Gaoyang last time said that there are many red-haired ghosts in Jingshi, these Xiyi understand shipbuilding, you only need to transfer a few red-haired ghosts to Penglai, we don't ask the imperial court for a little silver, we can also build a warship."

"Uh......!"

Chongzhen was stunned, since he ascended the throne, there has not been a day when he is not worried about silver, and the generals in the border towns everywhere cry and shout every day for money and food, but this Leiden town and the general army of Baoding do not want a penny, and they are bent on destroying the thieves and calming the chaos for the country.

"Leiden Town is ambitious, I will let John Tang and them go to Leiden with you, and I will give Peng Laibo another 30,000 taels of silver to show his merits!"

"Thirty thousand taels?"

Ma Sande and Lang Shaozhen looked at Emperor Chongzhen suspiciously, 30,000 taels were not enough for a month's military salary of the Jingbei Army, and it would not matter if they took this silver.
