At the end of the early dynasty, the courtiers left the main hall in twos and threes, preparing to return to the yamen office, at this moment a soldier wearing a new military uniform but covered with dust hurriedly rushed to the square outside the palace.

The GI held a pennant representing 100,000 urgency in his hand, and on his back was a long round barrel.

"Great victory! Xuanfu victory! The GI roared and ran, flying through the Manchu ministers.

No matter who it is, they don't dare to run wild in the palace, but the military intelligence transmission is an exception.

As a courtier, I have seen such a scene more than once, but the so-called frontier military intelligence is bad news nine times out of ten.

For example, during the Zhengde period, the military situation was urgent, either the Mongols broke through the weak points of the border pass, or how many livestock and women were plundered, or the first battle on the frontier, how heavy the losses of the Ming Dynasty were, and so on.

Great victory? It's been a long time since I've heard good news!

The courtiers did not leave, but turned around one after another to see what the good news of the military situation was coming back.

Zhu Houwei had already returned to the dormitory, and he planned to go to the imperial study to review the folds as soon as possible, but suddenly heard the urgent report of the military situation, and immediately threw away the chopsticks in his hand, and went to the Qianqing Palace without putting on the crown.

"Take it and see it." Zhu Houwei's face was a little solemn, he didn't see the real report, he really didn't have much confidence in Daming's success.

The main reason is that the Ming Dynasty is noble and martial, and if there is an opportunity to discredit the martial arts, then the civil officials will definitely spare no effort.

Therefore, in the history of the Ming Dynasty, many times the so-called great victory, such as the beheading of the third-level victory, such as the Zhengde Emperor came to the battle array, more than 100,000 people fought for a day, and finally killed more than a dozen Mongolian cavalry.

Even if they were more than 100,000 people, they would throw bricks at each other for a day, and more than a dozen of them would die.

It can be said that in order to discredit the generals, the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty have completely lost the lower limit.

However, perhaps due to the influence, Zhu Houwei's concept of victory and defeat was also limited to a box, and he couldn't jump out for a while.

"On April 12 of the first year of Jiajing, the little Mongolian prince Batu Mongol led 50,000 elite cavalry to attack Xuanfu...... Chief soldier Zhu Shou, deputy chief soldier guard, the new soldier, personally braved the arrow...... In this battle, 5,600 Mongolian cavalry were killed, 11,000 Mongolian soldiers were captured, and countless horses, cattle and sheep were captured...... The soldiers and horses stationed in Xuanfu were killed 1,393 people, 47 were seriously wounded, and nearly ...... were lightly wounded."

Great victory! What a victory!

If this good news was not sent back by Xuanfu, then Zhu Houwei might still be suspicious, but this is the battle report of Xuanfu, and the current Xuanfu general soldier is Zhu Houzhao!

Zhu Houzhao, who is not even uncommon for the throne, will falsely report his military exploits, don't be joking......

So what this good news says must be true!

More real than real money!

It's just a pity that Zhu Houwei hasn't been on the real battlefield, his training method is just to stand on the shoulders of giants and copy it, and he also overestimated Zhu Houzhao's discipline.

In Zhu Houwei's eyes, in order to be a general, in order to be able to go to the battlefield and cut people, Zhu Houzhao can even throw the throne like throwing stinky socks, and now in the face of a big war, can he hold back?

As for him leaving Shu Tianlu by Zhu Houzhao's side to restrain him, to be honest, he didn't have much confidence himself.

So Zhu Houzhao must be true when he went to the battlefield to slash people, and the worst must be to beat the water dogs, but I don't know how many Mengqi were cut down this time.

"What a blessing for the dynasty." Zhu Houwei laughed, looked at the dozens of ministers who wanted to know the answer with a confused face, and casually handed the good news to Ren Xing, and Ren Xing handed it to Yang Tinghe with the good news.

Yang Tinghe took a deep breath after reading it, but did not express his opinion, and passed it directly to Liang Chu, and then passed it down one by one.

After touching the tea, the ministers in the palace finally finished reading it, but there was no joy on their faces.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Xuanfu has won a great victory, and the little Mongolian prince has been defeated, this thief has repeatedly violated the border for several years, plundering countless people of my Ming Dynasty, this big defeat, it is estimated that the border can be stable for several years, what, shouldn't you be congratulating for Daming, congratulating for the border soldiers?"

The emperor asked, and it was not good for the ministers to continue to pretend to be deaf and dumb, and Yang Tinghe, one of the two people who was most qualified to answer this question, continued to pretend to be dead, so Wang Qiong, the secretary of the military department, stood up.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the minister does not question the combat strength of the border army, but this good news is too unbelievable, 5,000 foot soldiers against 50,000 iron cavalry? Not only can they win the battle, but they can also behead thousands and capture more than 10,000 enemies?

It's ridiculous, the border army has always liked to falsely report their exploits, and killing a hundred people can be said to kill a thousand, whether this good news will be so, the minister does not dare to make a conclusion, but the minister thinks that it should be verified and then discussed. ”

When the soldiers who came to report the victory heard this, their eyes stared at Wang Qiong's old face like fire, so that the latter couldn't help frowning, how dare the puppet be so rude!

Zhu Houwei sneered on his face, Confucian civil officials are really this virtue.

In their hearts, they must hope that the results of the battle of Xuanfu are true, because as long as this battle is true, then the border can indeed be comfortable for a few years, and there is no need to face the enemy all the time like the Zhengde Dynasty.

But they didn't want it to be true, because it wasn't the children of their famous religion who commanded the battle in Xuanfu's great victory.

How can a mere martial artist steal such a monstrous feat!

After the change of Tumubao, the martial arts of the Ming Dynasty almost died, and since then, the Wuxun group has been declining, and it is precisely after Yu Qian turned the tide to keep the capital that the power of civil officials really emerged, and the Wuxun group was pressed under him in one fell swoop.

This situation is not easy to come by, as a member of Confucianism, now the ministers in the palace are counted as one, and they will never allow Wu Xun to have the slightest chance to raise his head.

Even if the Son of Heaven strongly supports it, it can't work!

"So, Wang Aiqing thinks this good news is fake?" Zhu Houwei's eyes looked at Wang Qiong coldly.

The soldier knelt down on one knee and said loudly: "The last general is willing to guarantee the victory of Dushikou with the head of the person on the item, there is absolutely no falsehood, if there is any falsehood, please punish the last general!"

The ministers looked coldly at the young general kneeling on the ground, and vouched for his life?

Then you have to see if your life is worth anything!

"Your Majesty, it is the norm for the generals of the border army to make false reports for their achievements, and even at the expense of killing the good and risking the merits, the minister thinks that the battle of Dushikou may be a clear victory, but the victory will definitely be false."

The young general can't wait to rush over and bite Wang Qiong to death!

"Falsely report the merits of war, kill the good and risk the merits?" Zhu Houwei said solemnly: "What about the captives? It is not so difficult to distinguish whether the captives are steppe people or Central Plains people, and the good news says that there are 11,000 Mongolian soldiers captured in the battle of Dushikou, even if many of these 11,000 prisoners died of serious injuries, there are still more than 10,000 captives, as long as they are escorted back to Beijing, wouldn't it be easy to argue at a glance? ”
