Chapter 502: Fresh is Good
Zhu Jinghong's emotion was only temporary, he had already seen more tragic situations in commanding operations for such a long time, and his ability to bear it was already extraordinarily strong.
After a brief tribute to the heroic soul, Zhu Jinghong came to the collapsed city wall, which had already begun to be rebuilt.
"Great Marshal, this is the Hami guard Tie Buer!" Liu Yudong, the commander of Yulin's right guard, said.
The bodies of the other Dzungar soldiers were removed, but the body of Tibur remained in its place.
Tie Buer was killed by Yulin's right guard, so Liu Yudong specially ordered him to stay, so that Zhu Jinghong could see the merits of Benwei.
"Buried it!" Zhu Jinghong reacted calmly.
Liu Yudong was ready to be humble, but he didn't expect Zhu Jinghong to only come with such a sentence, which made him somewhat disappointed.
And the other commanders who accompanied him all had a smile at the moment, if it weren't for Zhu Jinghong, they would have laughed.
After walking around the city of Hami for a while, Zhu Jinghong went to the official office and convened the generals here for a brief discussion, mainly about the garrison arrangements in the city.
After arranging these things, Zhu Jinghong held a closed-door meeting, and the only participants were Liu Fang, Liang Qian, and Huang Qing.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it's the end of September, the weather is getting colder and colder, and it's impossible to fight again!"
"I mean, all the troops will take back to the vicinity of Hami to repair, and then go on the expedition after the middle of winter, depending on the situation!"
On the main seat, Zhu Jinghong put forward his opinion, which was also discussed before, and now it is just for final confirmation.
"The prince's words are reasonable, it is difficult to transport grain and grass in such a cold day now, and if you want to go on a long-distance expedition, you must be more prepared!" Huang Qing was the first to come out and echo.
After a few breaths of silence, I only heard Liu Fang say: "What the marshal said is reasonable, it will become colder and colder in the future, which is not conducive to long-distance combat, and the re-expedition needs to wait for the beginning of spring!" ”
Immediately afterwards, Liang Qian also agreed, so the four of them reached an agreement.
"Okay, this matter is decided, let's jointly play to the court!"
"In addition, you can order that the Qinghai Xingdu Division, the Jurchens, Tibet, and the Mongolian tribes should withdraw to the vicinity of Hami City and station for repair!"
"I also want to order all departments to verify and report military merits, and we will have a celebration banquet in three days!"
"Also, select the soldiers who meet the standards I set before and have outstanding military merits, and the commander will personally reward them at the celebration party!"
Commending generals is the business of the imperial court, and now that Zhu Jinghong has made such a great contribution, of course he will not do these taboo things again, so as not to make the emperor suspicious of him.
But commending ordinary soldiers will not involve too much, and it is also in line with his personality.
After a few orders, the people below were busy.
After Liu Fang and the others left, Zhu Jinghong met with Jinyiwei's people again.
These spies of Nanzhen Fusi also made great contributions, so Zhu Jinghong first praised them, and then arranged a new task for them, contacting the Jinyi Guards in Ili City and asking for news.
After all these things were arranged, Zhu Jinghong took off his armor under the service of Yu Hai and other eunuchs.
"Thirteen Master ......"
Kikige carried the tea tray and entered the room, her face bright and smiling to look at pleasing to the eye.
As the "princess" of Dzungaria, Qiqige is normally unable to enter and leave here freely, and she can move around at will through Zhu Jinghong's acquiescence.
For the beautiful woman to give him a hug, even if he may have another purpose, Zhu Jinghong didn't take it to heart.
After all, no matter how much Qiqige tosses, in Zhu Jinghong's opinion, he is also a pediatrician, and he can be pinched to death with his backhand.
"Why didn't Nomin come here?" Zhu Jinghong sat on the chair and asked.
When she came to Zhu Jinghong's side, Qiqige said with a smile: "That girl saw her father go!" ”
"She is still younger, she is always not very thoughtful, the concubine has learned the rules in the palace, and it is very suitable to take care of the thirteenth master!"
While speaking, Qiqige had already come to Zhu Jinghong, showing his posture with slightly exaggerated movements.
At this time, she had already called herself a "concubine", and she really didn't regard herself as an outsider.
Zhu Jinghong's eating and drinking has always been the responsibility of the eunuchs around him, and the tea brought by Qiqige was also obtained from the eunuchs.
And from the moment she took the tea tray, two eunuchs had been staring at her, ensuring that she had no chance of poisoning.
As a result, the teacup handed by Qiqige, Zhu Jinghong said with a smile: "Nothing to be courteous, either traitor or theft...... What do you want? ”
Sitting in Zhu Jinghong's arms, Qiqige hugged his neck and said, "What the concubine wants, haven't you said it before!" ”
"The concubine just wants to follow the Thirteenth Master and go back to Ili City together...... See my enemies die! ”
Qiqige's words all show that she is a dangerous woman, and normally Zhu Jinghong will definitely give up.
But at this time, he felt that this girl was very useful.
In addition to using her to hit the morale of Dzungaria, Qiqige's greater value lies in her status as a sweat girl, and staying by Zhu Jinghong's side can make her self-defiled.
There is no way, Lian Zhan Lianjie defeated Dzungaria, Zhu Jinghong's current prestige is not an exaggeration.
He was not afraid of the courtiers' attacks, but he was afraid that the old man would suspect him, so he was really not at ease if he didn't do something stupid.
Of course, now with his status, he has to be selective when he does stupid things.
Since the reckless and other characters have been lost, it is not bad to set up a lustful character...... Zhu Jinghong thought so.
People still have weaknesses in order to reassure others!
Holding Qiqige in his arms, Zhu Jinghong said with a smile: "This matter is troublesome, we have to discuss it!" ”
Feeling Zhu Jinghong's body temperature, although Qiqige was enthusiastic on the surface, he was actually too scared in his heart.
But she still held herself up, and then said, "Lord Wang...... Let's go inside! ”
What she was afraid of was that Zhu Jinghong was doing things here, and it was too embarrassing for so many eunuchs to watch.
Holding Qiqige horizontally and standing up, Zhu Jinghong said with a smile: "Let's go in and talk slowly!" ”
After that, Zhu Jinghong didn't delay much, and went inside with Qiqige in his arms.
For the past two days, his mind has been tense, and this is the right moment to take the opportunity to relax.
When the two of them were happy, Nuo Min also came back from outside, so he went directly to Zhu Jinghong's residence.
"Miss Nuomin, it's inconvenient for the prince now!" Yu Hai stopped Nomin.
"Is it inconvenient for the prince? Even I can't go in? Nomin asked with a frown.
Nomin had never encountered such a situation, so she questioned it.
Yu Hai is a sincere person, plus Nuo Min is usually polite to him, so he explained: "Miss Kikige is inside!" ”
"She's in there? What are you doing in there? Nomin asked, feeling like he had been robbed of something he cherished.
"This ...... The minions don't know either! Yu Hai said something unconscionable.
"I'm going to go in and have a look!"
Nuo Min's words really surprised Yu Hai, and it was the first time he had heard such a request.
"Miss Nomin, that's not right!" Yu Hai reminded.
Actually, Nomin was talking angrily, and of course she knew that she couldn't go in, so she found a chair next to her and sat down, and waited for a while before going in.
And she waited for half an hour before the room was completely quiet.
After a while, the door of the room was opened from the inside, and Zhu Jinghong appeared at the door.
At this moment, he was wearing an inky blue moire round-necked robe, his expression looked extremely relaxed, and at the same time, he had a smile on his face.
"It's really fresh!" Zhu Jinghong sighed in his heart.
"Thirteenth Master, you finally came out!"
Nuo Min's resentful voice woke Zhu Jinghong up from his aftertaste, so his gaze swept over.
"Nomin, you're back!"
Biting his lip, Nuo Min plucked up his courage and said, "Thirteenth Master, I want to say a few words to you!" ”
"Say it!" Zhu Jinghong replied casually.
"We ...... Let's put it another way! Nuo Min said in a glutinous voice.
"Girl...... Are you serious? Zhu Jinghong asked with a smile, he had guessed Nuo Min's intentions.
To be honest, although Nuo Min's words were quite subtle, they were actually very bold, at least not the women of the palace had said so.
Walking in front of Nuo Min, Zhu Jinghong held her waist, and then said, "Girl...... Now is not the time, we will speak slowly in the evening! ”
He was now in the time of the sage, and he really had no interest in those things, so he had to recover for half a day before he could do it, and it was just right to make an appointment in the evening.
"Marshal, the city has found a reserve of grain and grass in Dzungaria, which is enough for our army to last more than two months!" Feng Ziying entered the hospital to report.
The front-line Ming army's own grain and grass was only enough for less than a month, and this was still the result of replenishment every few days.
With these grain and grass supplements, even if it is more difficult to transport grain in the severe cold in the later period, the army stationed on the front line can be upright and worry-free.
"Is Iron Bury buried? If not, he will be buried in peace, and he will leave us a big gift! As he spoke, Zhu Jinghong walked down the steps.
Seeing Zhu Jinghong walking towards him, Feng Ziying hooked his waist and said: "There were defeated soldiers in the city just now, but fortunately, it was discovered by the brothers, otherwise I don't know how much grain and grass will be lost!" ”
"Punish severely!"
"Yes!" Feng Ziying was even more humble, just because Zhu Jinghong had come to him.
His eyes swept to Feng Ziying, and Zhu Jinghong said calmly: "In three or two days, I will go back to Beijing, will you go back to Beijing with me?" ”
Returning to Beijing to pay homage to the Emperor Taishang was an itinerary set by Zhu Jinghong a long time ago, and the top brass of the Ming army knew about it.
From October to March next year, there will basically be no major battles, so all the staff officers will be idle, so Zhu Jinghong asked Feng Ziying if she would return to Beijing.
Although she performed well in this expedition, Feng Ziying is a military general who is "halfway home" after all, and now she is naturally homesick after being away from Beijing for so long.
"Marshal, the battle on the front line is not over, and the minister is only afraid of ......"
"That's right, forget it!"
Zhu Jinghong asked casually, since Feng Ziying was unwilling to go back, he naturally would not be reluctant.
"But if the handsome man needs someone to run around, the minister will die when he goes to the soup!" Feng Ziying hurriedly said.
So this kid is really a bit of a hurry, and no one can be underestimated...... Zhu Jinghong said secretly.
He often boasts that he doesn't like to read, but he practices this truth of self-reflection every day.
"Let's go down!"
"Yes!"
Feng Ziying had no choice but to retreat, at this time he felt uncomfortable, and he didn't know if Zhu Jinghong wanted to take him back.
The next day, the cavalry units that had been scattered had also returned to the vicinity of Hami one after another, and began to build tents to prepare for their cantonment.
At this moment, Zhu Jinghong was on the city wall, on the one hand, to check the garrison, and at the same time to understand the repair of the city.
The young man who was requisitioned last night did not stop, and worked hard all night, and he was stunned to build up a few gaps in the city wall with stones, and then he only needed to improve his appearance.
After walking around the city wall, Zhu Jinghong went to various barracks to check the repair of the soldiers.
Although the loss of the robe is sad, it is even more gratifying to survive, so there is an atmosphere of joy in the barracks.
There will be no big war in the next six months, which is even more gratifying.
When I came to one of the military camps, it was the camp of Zhenwei Zhongwei, where meritorious soldiers were being selected, so there were at least a thousand people crowded on the scene.
Seeing Zhu Jinghong and his entourage coming, the surrounding crowd consciously made way of a road, and then saluted him one after another.
"Excuse me!"
The person in charge of this matter was a commanding officer, and when he saw Zhu Jinghong appearing, he immediately greeted him.
After his salute, Zhu Jinghong asked: "I remember, I gave you twenty places for Zhenwei Zhongwei, and now you can choose it?" ”
Zhu Jinghong gave 300 places for commending meritorious soldiers, of which 120 were from the Northern Fourth Guard, 40 were from the 2nd Guards Cavalry of the Beijing Battalion, 30 were from the 2nd Guards Infantry, 50 were given to the Qinghai Xingdu Division, and the remaining 60 were shared by the Jurchen, Mongolian, and Tibetan armies.
There are 120,000 people in the North 4 Guards, 70 in the 20,000 people in the Beijing 4 Guards, and there are almost 20,000 people but 50 in the Qinghai Xingdu Division.
But the battle of Hami is too crucial, so Zhu Jinghong's arrangement is basically no one can blame.
Moreover, the formal recognition of soldiers has never happened before, and how can soldiers suffer from unevenness.
"Returning to the marshal, the ministers are verifying, and the list can be determined in half an hour at most!"
"It's not just about making a list, it's about announcing the specific results, and convincing everyone, so that you can inspire others!"
When Zhu Jinghong said this, his eyes swept to the other people present, and his purpose was already self-evident.
"Yes!" The generals answered.
"Let's go on an errand!"
"Yes!" The conductor replied.
Zhu Jinghong was going to leave after taking a look, but he saw a person in the crowd next to him, so he shouted: "Wang Chengfu? ”
At this time, everyone was staring at Zhu Jinghong, and Wang Chengfu was of course no exception.
He never expected that a big man like Zhu Jinghong would still remember his name.
"That's just calling you, come here!"
Seeing Zhu Jinghong beckoning to him, this murderous steel man trembled with excitement at this moment.
After the robe beside him twisted him, this guy regained his clarity and came to Zhu Jinghong more than everyone else.
"The villain knocks on the handsome!"
Wang Chengfu is the leader of the Beijing battalion team, and his command is only ten people, in front of Zhu Jinghong, the prince and governor, it is really too small to be worth mentioning.
"I told you before that if you behead level 30, Ben Shuai will personally set up a drink for you to celebrate!"
"But now it seems that this matter is only afraid of difficulty, only level 30...... I'm afraid I won't be able to choose your list of Zhenwei central defenders! ”
From Zhu Jinghong's command of the battle to the present, all the armies have basically won successive battles, and in a sense, military merits are a little worthless.
The personal beheading of the thirtyth level is very violent, no matter where it looks, and only in this northwest battlefield does it not seem to be the best batch, especially this Zhenwei central defender with serious involution.
Zhu Jinghong's words surprised everyone at the scene, they didn't expect Wang Chengfu to have this experience.
Although excited, Wang Chengfu is an adult after all, and he has already controlled his emotions at the moment.
"Returning to the handsome, the villain was beheaded before and after, there are forty-three levels!"
This time it was Zhu Jinghong's turn to be surprised, and then he laughed and said, "Okay...... At the celebration banquet, Ben Shuai is waiting for you! ”
Forty-three levels are indeed brave enough, but compared with fierce people like Zhu Jinghong, it is only a fraction of it.
He himself has also calculated, in the previous several major battles he participated, he had killed more than 300 enemy troops.
If it weren't for the emperor's strict decree, this guy would go to the battlefield a few more times, and his record would not be much against the sky.
So no matter who it is, he doesn't dare to take credit in front of Zhu Jinghong, because from big to strategic to small, his credit is unparalleled.
