Huang Pu was very keen to find the key word from the emperor's words: vigorous and resolute.

It can be seen how disgusted the emperor was with the civil and military officials in Shanxi.

Even if the Wara army is withdrawn, the main force of the Shenji Battalion will continue to surround Xuanfu, for fear that these people will do things again.

Xu Heng ignored this, but asked Zhu Qiyu: "Your Majesty, this army of the Western Road you formed is led by Shi Heng, Sun Bo, and Liu Yongcheng, and the minister can still understand it." But why is Jin Ying, Xing'an, and Cheng Jing supervising the army, and Yang Shan is counselor of military affairs?

Your Majesty, are you really going to rescue the Emperor? ”

Zhu Qiyu smiled, everything was silent.

Seeing this, Xu Heng continued to ask, "Your Majesty means that Shi Heng's army will be defeated?" ”

Zhu Qiyu replied: "I did everything I had to do." I gave Shi Heng, Sun Bo, and Liu Yongcheng a total of 100,000 troops, 20,000 troops in Bauhinia Pass, 10,000 troops in Baoma Pass, and 20,000 troops in Datong City.

This total is 150,000 troops, and the army of Yexian and Boyan Timur in our Ming Dynasty combined, a total of only more than 30,000, can be less than 40,000.

I have a lot of information about him, and he has a lot of grain and grass, and he can't win a battle against 150,000 against 40,000, so can you blame me?

I'm hoping for him to win anyway, but if they're really rubbish, then I can't help it. In the previous battle of Yanghekou, Shi Heng had already suffered a loss, and the whole army was annihilated. I really hope that he can grow into a wise man and grow into a qualified celebrity. ”

Zhu Qiyu's words, Xu Heng, Wang Tong, He Yi, and Huang Pu all understood.

Obviously, the emperor is not optimistic that Shi Heng can achieve a hearty victory along the way. At most, it is a small victory or a pyrrhic victory.

As for why the emperor had such a judgment in the case of 150,000 against 40,000 people, in a hurry, everyone present did not particularly understand it.

Zhu Qiyu continued to cheer everyone up: "Actually, as long as the West Road is delayed, it is okay not to let him return to the grassland in time."

After our Eastern Route Army and the Middle Route Army have broken through the grassland guards who have been left behind, we can quickly return to the division and flank the front and rear with the West Route Army.

When the time comes, the battle will be decided, and the good days of our monarchs and ministers will come completely. At the time of the Zhengdan Dynasty Meeting, in front of all the royal relatives and nobles, civil and military officials, I will add you officials and knights. ”

After that, Zhu Qiyu smiled at Fan Guang again: "Governor Fan, add up before and after, has your Shenji battalion already cut enough 10,000 people?" ”

Fan Guang replied with a smile: "It's all thanks to Your Majesty's blessings, it's enough." ”

"Okay, then I mean what I say, on the day of the Great Dynasty Meeting, I officially canonized you as the champion."

Fan Guang hurriedly knelt down to thank him.

Zhu Qiyu smiled at everyone: "Everyone has a share, and no one is treated badly." ”

When they heard this, they knelt down together to give thanks.

Zhu Qiyu led everyone to talk about the military deployment for another hour, and took care of dinner.

It wasn't until it was completely dark that the monarch and the ministers dispersed.

Zhu Qiyu dragged his tired body back to the room, finished bathing with the beauty, and lay on the bed with his arms left and right.

Lin Xiangyu first asked: "Husband didn't blame the slave family, did he casually spend hundreds of thousands of taels more today?" ”

"No, you did the right thing, I blame you for what you did. Why do you think it's really for the sake of the gag, he is checking and filling in the gaps for me.

It must be that He Yi is in the barracks, and he has already noticed bad signs, and it is indeed easy to cause problems by treating the personal guards differently from the rewards of other soldiers.

Anyway, our family is not bad for this money, so we can just get it, and besides, the money is a bastard, and you can still earn it if you spend it. ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Qiyu continued to add: "You can send someone to the southwest of the capital to mine white marble, first rebuild the residence of the concubine, and then let's go to the western suburbs to build our landscape garden."

I've had enough of living here for a long time, it's chaotic and noisy, and it affects my mood.

I am now anxious to live in the Yuquan Palace, which has mountains, water, rivers, lakes, and hot springs. ”

Lin Xiangyu hurriedly echoed: "The slave family also wants to do it, when the time comes, there will only be the husband and our fifteen sisters in the entire Yuquan Palace, so that the others can only go to the side hall outside the palace to discuss matters."

At that time, we will do whatever we want to do, and no one will bother us. In winter, it is much better to stay in the hot spring flower room, which is warm and cozy, and you can do what you love to do. ”

When Zhu Qiyu heard this, he slapped the thick mattress hard: "No, tomorrow we will give out more rewards, and then promise even greater rewards to motivate the soldiers to finish the battle quickly." Let's return to the countryside as soon as possible and live a paradise-like life. ”

Ning Xiang on the side said with a smile: "Then the subjects of the whole country should wonder, all the Ming Emperor and the concubines regard the majestic Forbidden City as their beloved, why is it the family of Emperor Jingtai, deviant, a nest of snakes and rats, all of them only love landscapes and pastorals." ”

Zhu Qiyu sneered in his heart: What is going on, it is obviously a normal aesthetic and taste, why can I only wait for another two hundred years until the emperors of the Qing Dynasty come up to understand me?

"Hey, I am the absurd emperor of the first Ming Dynasty, and you are all the absurd concubines of the absurd emperor. A nest of snakes and rats will be a nest of snakes and rats, as long as you are well and not buried. ”

As soon as Zhu Qiyu mentioned the funeral, the two favorite concubines hurriedly served hard. Since Zhu Qiyu finished talking about the process and details of the funeral, the favorite concubines have been anxious to exchange good feelings with Zhu Qiyu, and strive to open up branches and leaves for their husbands as soon as possible, so as to firmly stabilize the throne. After all, no one wants to have such a humiliating death.

……

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, Zhu Qiyu took the princess into the barracks to reward the soldiers, and almost frantically scattered nearly a million taels of white flowers.

For the safety of his family, and the fame of his career before and after his death, Zhu Qiyu felt that it was worth spending no matter how much money he spent.

After all, silver is such a thing, if you don't bring it from life to death and don't bring it with you, if you stay in the warehouse, it will only slowly become moldy.

If you send them all early, you can bring endless benefits to yourself.

And the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, as long as they are paid in full and ensure the supply of good grain, grass and baggage, will never disappoint.

In such a way as the emperor issued silver, there were not many more big victories, and the soldiers themselves felt that they couldn't talk about it.

Now the soldiers of the second battalion and the six guards are full of fighting spirit, and they are all screaming to rush up.

After Zhu Qiyu finished rewarding the soldiers, he ordered him to rest early, start tomorrow, and go to the battlefield separately.

While Zhu Qiyu was rewarding the soldiers, Shi Heng, Sun Bo, and Liu Yongcheng had already led the army to set off for Bauhinia Pass.

And first, the remnants of the defeated army have been cleaned up. Because of the night of the attack on the camp, Zhu Qiyu ordered the Ming army to surround the east, west, and north, leaving the south side.

Surrounded by three ques, so the army of Warat all ran to the south in unison. Then the remaining hundreds of thousands of Ming troops, noble family members, and loyal and brave soldiers in the capital all gathered in the south to chase and kill.

In this way, although the losses were heavy, because the rout army ran south, it was much easier to gather men and horses.

In the end, he gathered 15,000 men and began to think about how to act.
