After settling the affairs of the Liao Domain, the army led by Yang Feng and Yang Wen went directly to the west.

He was not prepared to go through the Shanhaiguan.

It is not necessary to enter the Shanhaiguan to enter the customs, and the same is true for entering the Yongguan Pass.

Chao yang.

Or the former guard of Yingzhou.

It belonged to the Daning Metropolitan Division, or the current name of the Northern Parallel Division.

Originally, it was Yang Feng's old friend Liu Zhen who guarded Daning during the Jingjing period in history, but it was also written as Liu Zhen, but he is still following Song Sheng as his deputy in the Western Regions, so the commander of the Daning Metropolitan Division is Bu Wan, but in addition to the commander, there is also a veteran at the level of the governor in charge......

"Chen Heng."

Yang Wen said holding the binocular.

At this moment, they are facing a formation, which can be said to be thousands of troops.

A white-bearded veteran with a prancing horse horizontal sword.

At this time, Chen Heng was actually almost seventy, this old man followed Zhu Yuanzhang very early, but he never won the title of knight in his life, but he didn't expect that at the age of almost seventy, he actually succeeded in studing, not only because he stood in the right line during the Jing disaster, especially because he gave the Daning Dusi to Zhu Di, but also died on the battlefield for Zhu Di, and was finally posthumously named a duke, and left a title of Marquis of Ningyang to future generations......

Ten generations of glory and wealth.

"He imprisoned the commander of the capital who opposed the army in Daning, Bu Wan and others, and then with the support of the princess Zhang of Ning, he thought that the king of Hunan had raised an army, and after I led the army to Guangning, he led an army of 30,000 to this point.

It is estimated that once I attack Quang Ninh, he will send troops to the rescue. ”

Yang Wen said.

"What is the real reason, it can't be that Zhu Bai really has such a great charm that he can make the vast majority of Daning's more than a dozen Wei 80,000 troops support it, right? I remember that Chen Heng was only transferred to Daning the year before last, and Bu Wan has been in Daning for many years, so his foundation should be stronger than his. Chen Heng's words can make the vast majority of Daning support it, so that it is easy to take down Bu Wan, this is not enough to redress Zhu Bai, speaking of which, Zhu Bai is a fart for them, even if the emperor kills Zhu Quan, they will not avenge Zhu Quan. ”

Yang Feng said.

"The north is bitterly cold, especially in Daning, and all the guards and soldiers think about returning day and night."

Yang Wen said with a sigh.

"Understood, so Zhu Di promised them."

Yang Feng nodded.

It makes sense.

Chifeng!

The era of non-mining is indeed not a good place.

Then he urged the moose forward.

And behind him the panda flag followed.

"Old General Chen, how many years have you followed Emperor Daxing?"

Yang Feng shouted.

Chen Heng looked at him warily.

"Look at this, this is called the Su Yu Banner, which was used to stop killing in ancient times, the Su Yu Banner was used to relieve the troops, Yang is an outsider, and it is suitable to mediate this battle, we will not fight today, I just want to talk to you, your beard is white, how many years have you followed the Emperor Daxing?"

Yang Feng shouted.

"When Emperor Daxing was still in Haozhou, the old man had already defected to his command, and it has been almost fifty years now."

Chen Heng said slowly.

"Are you loyal to Emperor Daxing?"

Yang Feng said.

"The old man is loyal to the Emperor Daxing, what does the ambassador want to say? Shouldn't the old man raise an army? Before the bones of Emperor Daxing were cold, His Majesty killed the clan and killed his uncles and brothers. What's more, Lan Yu besieged the kings in Kaifeng, the life and death of King Ning are uncertain, and all the guards are under the jurisdiction of King Ning, and the life and death of the commander are uncertain, so we naturally want to ask Your Majesty for an understanding. Since the ambassador wants to mediate, then please first ask Your Majesty to give me an explanation, if the king of Xiang and the king of Guangze are indeed guilty, we will naturally be guilty. ”

Chen Heng said.

"I only ask if you are absolutely loyal to Emperor Daxing."

Yang Feng said.

"Yes!"

Chen Heng said without hesitation.

Yang Feng nodded.

"Then ask the old general to prove it, there is no basis for what he says, since the old general said that he is absolutely loyal to Emperor Daxing, then please prove your loyalty."

He said.

"How can you prove that the ambassador is going to be old?"

Chen Heng said angrily.

"Of course, you are following Emperor Daxing, your Emperor Daxing is dead, since you are an old minister who is absolutely loyal to him, then of course you must follow Emperor Daxing in the sky. Please follow the old general Emperor Daxing, and I will take your body to the capital, and then bury it next to the tomb of filial piety, and make you worthy of the temple, and as a reward for your loyalty, I guarantee that your son will be made an earl.

General Chen, please prove your loyalty. ”

Yang Feng said.

Chen Heng looked at him in amazement, and then looked at his subordinates around him.

"Old General Chen, don't look at them, this matter has nothing to do with them, if you don't follow Emperor Daxing, it will have something to do with them, at that time you are disloyal to Emperor Daxing, you are rebelling, I will attack with the Marquis of Rinan." Yang has not tasted defeat since he arrived in Daming, I am a friendly envoy, and I have a lot of friendship with Emperor Daxing, and I am even likely to be his son-in-law, and I am also half a Ming person, I don't want to do anything to the soldiers of Daming. But if you lead them to rebel, then as the son-in-law of Emperor Daxing and the uncle of His Majesty the Emperor, I can only help them clean up the rebellion inside. ”

Yang Feng said.

Chen Heng was still looking at his men.

But......

"Are you fantasizing about something?"

Yang Feng said.

Then he urged the moose forward, and then walked in front of the Daning army......

"Those who have participated in the Western Expedition have all come out."

He shouted.

Immediately the Ming army began to walk out.

At this time, the first batch of Western Expeditionary Army led by Zhu Di did not want to stay in the Western Regions have returned, and the first batch of Western Expeditionary Army is Beiping, Northern Parallel Division, Shanxi Xingdu Division, Daning or Northern Parallel Division, a total of 8,000 cavalry participated, they belonged to Zhou Xing, and there are currently more than 6,000 people who have returned.

These are the most elite of the Daning Dusi, and most of them participated this time.

After all, they really support Zhu Di.

Soon in front of Chen Heng's formation, three or four thousand people had already come out, and the most elite mounted cavalry actually came out, after all, they were all riding Arab horses, which were obviously the most suitable for use as mounted cavalry......

"Get on your knees!"

Yang Feng shouted.

The latter dismounted without the slightest hesitation, and then fell to their knees beside their horses.

Yang Feng didn't say anything more, and continued to ride a moose around them, walking in front of Chen Heng's formation.

"All Mongols, come out!"

He shouted.

Daning Dusi is a mixture of Han and Mongolia.

Of course, it's not a Duoyan Sanwei, the real Duoyan Sanwei Yang Feng was gone before he arrived, it was a subordinate of the Liao King of the Yuan Dynasty, Aza Li, but after Aza Lost Li surrendered, he only got a commander, he thought it was an insult to his Taiji identity, after all, Naha was made a marquis. Mu Huali's descendants are actually higher than him, which is obviously an insult to him, so in the twenty-fourth year of Hongwu, he ran away with a large number of subordinates, and after he escaped, Duoyan Sanwei actually no longer existed. It's just that there are still some subordinates who didn't follow, and this group of people was incorporated into the Daning Dusi guards, the guards outside the Saiwai, this kind of Han and Mongolian mixed formation, the Han Jurchen mixed situation is very common, not counting the Huining Du Division, the 30,000 guards of the Liaodong Capital Division are also mixed.

This is the so-called Duoyan Sanwei after Zhu Di annexed King Ning's department.

To be precise, there are no faces.

It's just that some of the original Mongols of Duoyan Sanwei are in Daning Dusi Gewei.

As for the later Duoyan Sanwei, it was re-established by Zhu Di, but that was many years later.

The Mongols in Chen Heng's formation looked at Yang Feng tremblingly......

"If you come out, you live, if you don't come out, you die!"

Yang Feng said.

Then he raised his rifle.

The next moment a gun rang out, and two hundred meters away, a Mongolian general fell on horseback.

Yang Feng calmly continued to aim and fire.

And then immediately after another Mongol general fell from his horse.

But no one dared to fight back.

Chen Heng didn't dare to give an order.

In fact, from the moment those cavalry went out to kneel under Yang Feng's order, this confrontation was already over, it was the most elite of the Daning army, and the rest were used to hearing Yang Feng's prestige. And those Mongolian generals didn't dare, Yang Feng was really embarrassed to kill the Han people, but they were different, Yang Feng like them had killed a lot over the years.

The Western Expedition even captured the Mongol Khan and beheaded Arutai, and the soldiers who came back from the Western Expedition have been telling his legend.

Soon Mongol soldiers came out of formation.

"Kneel, kneel!"

Yang Feng rode on a moose with a strange painting style and shouted.

The Mongol soldiers quickly dismounted and fell to their knees.

And then more and more people came out.

Yang Feng continued to look at the rest of the guards......

"I know what Brother Zhu Gaochi must have promised you, and I also know that Daning is indeed very bitter, but no matter how bitter it is, can it be more bitter than Huining? I had already started planting rice in Hoeryeong, and the rice planting had already begun to be sown before I came, and the reclamation team there was very satisfied, whether it was the military household of the garrison. If you really don't want to continue to garrison Daning, I can also suggest to His Majesty the Emperor that the guards under the Daning Capital Division be abolished, after all, Mongolia has already surrendered at this time, and there is really no need for so many garrisons. However, it is still impossible to completely dismantle it, and I will ask the emperor to follow the example of Hoeryong, and I will contract the military supply of the Daning Dusi, and then I will be responsible for the development of this place.

I can turn Hoi Ning into a paradise, and I can also turn Daning into a promised land. ”

Yang Feng said as he walked.

It is true that Rehe is poor......

But there are mines!

Gold, copper, and sulfur are all strategic resources at the moment.

Especially the latter two.

The artillery of the Ming Dynasty has made copper more and more scarce now, although relying on paper money, it is true that copper can be saved to the greatest extent, but a large amount of copper is still more and more expensive after being used to cast guns. Most of the sulfur actually came from the Wa Kingdom and the Ryukyus, which were enough to support the development of this area.

Not to mention animal husbandry.

Cattle are grazed in large quantities and canned meat can be sold to the south.

As for the food supply, it is equally simple, as long as corn and potatoes are spread, there can be no shortage of food in this area.

As for the dismissal of the guard, this is actually necessary.

Daning Dusi is to act as the front line of the battle against Mobei, and now Mobei has surrendered, although it is still necessary to maintain a certain garrison vigilance, but 80,000 military households are still a bit much. Behind the 80,000 military households are 80,000 or even 100,000 households, and there must be more than 80,000 households that have multiplied over the years. It can be reduced by half, and the carrying capacity of the population here in this era is limited, even the herdsmen in this area in the late Ming Dynasty are the weakest. Not only was it unnecessary to keep 80,000 garrisons, but it would cost a lot of money to supply them, and half of them would be cut and about 40,000 would be replaced by hired reclamation teams, which would be filled with a combination of labor and agriculture and the constant introduction of slaves and maids.

"Kneel, kneel!"

Yang Feng shouted as he walked.

The Han guards also dismounted silently and fell to their knees.

Soon almost everyone was on their knees.

The 30,000-strong army knelt down in the Qiantun Acropolis of Yingzhou, and only Chen Heng and his subordinates were still there.

Yang Feng returned to him.

"Old General Chen, it's time for you to prove your loyalty to Emperor Daxing."

Yang Feng said.

"Ambassador, don't lie to the old man!"

Chen Heng said slowly.

"I'm not lying, you can rest assured, whether your emperor agrees or not, I will let him agree."

Yang Feng said.

Of course, if he goes back in this way, then Zhu Yunxi will have to agree if he doesn't agree.

Chen Heng silently dismounted, then knelt to the ground facing south, then pulled out his saber and put it on his neck, he looked at the sky to the south with a complicated gaze, and around him were 30,000 subordinates who knelt on the ground.

"Emperor Daxing, the old minister is loyal to His Majesty!"

He suddenly shouted.

Then the knife in his hand was pulled suddenly, and blood gushed from the severed veins......

"Old General Chen is really a loyal minister, you put away the body of Old General Chen, find a good coffin to put it in, and then protect it with ice when you arrive in Daning, and I will take his body to the capital. As for all of you to get up and go back to your duties, I will honor what I promised you, and in the meantime I will be responsible for your military supplies, and I will arrange for you to continue transporting them. ”

Yang Feng said.

This is easy, and soon Liaodong Bay will thaw.

Supplies from the sea will continue to arrive.

The 30,000 Daning army was easily solved by him in this way.

In total, five people died.

Including their commanders-in-chief, of course.

"According to the ambassador's standard, do I have to be loyal to Emperor Daxing!"

Yang Wen said.

"You? You don't need it, you are the second generation, Ling Zun has been loyal to Emperor Daxing, but those old ministers who followed Emperor Daxing to fight the world back then should indeed be loyal to Emperor Daxing, and some people should die or die. ”

Yang Feng said.

Yang Wen's father died for Zhu Yuanzhang more than 40 years ago, and his uncle died in Poyang Lake, so he really doesn't need to be loyal to Zhu Yuanzhang anymore, but the rest of Zhou Dexing, Wang Bi, and Lan Yu do have to be loyal to Emperor Daxing. If they refuse, then Ambassador Yang will definitely persuade them to be loyal to Emperor Daxing like he persuaded Chen Heng, and besides, they were all killed by Zhu Yuanzhang in their original history, but Yang Feng appeared and lived for many more years.

Be content!

Now it's just a matter of getting them to walk the path they should have taken a long time ago with more dignity.

Kill all the veterans, let them be considered to be martyred for Zhu Yuanzhang, and clean them up, Daming has truly entered a new era.
