After the Battle of Datong, before the Ming Dynasty learned of the great victory in Liaodong, the court was in chaos. This huge chaos was not caused by the robbery of Datong by Jin soldiers, but several months after Emperor Chongzhen came to power, he finally began to clean up the eunuchs' power, let Wei Zhongxian retire and return home, and eliminated a large number of officials who cursed Wei Zhongxian.

The Donglin Party, suppressed by Wei Zhongxian, became active and arranged people in an important position in the court, and was very busy.

Just as the Ming Dynasty's power was changing, the news that the Fu Liao army captured the capital of the Later Jin Dynasty came, shocking the civil and military officials of the court!

"...In this battle, our army has captured thousands of enemy heads and captured tens of thousands of prisoners. Six of the enemy's eight banners were severely damaged by us. Our army has been stationed in Liaodong City. God bless the Ming Dynasty and will prosper forever!" The memorial reported by Chu Yun, the Minister of War, was read in the palace.

The civil and military officials were silent at first, and then they were in an uproar, completely unbelievable!

Emperor Chongzhen, who was originally tired of dealing with Wei Zhongxian's party, heard a news and his dragon body shook and his body trembled slightly: "Are you serious at this time?"

"If the Dongjiang General Chu Yun wrote the correct writing, it should be true..." The Minister of War was not sure.

If Chu Yun made a fraudulent concealment of the Later Jin Dynasty, he would have been terrified. But if it was true, it would be too unbelievable. After all, the Later Jin Dynasty was already afraid of the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty was defeated in the Battle of Sarhu with all its might. Even if it could win the Ningyuan Battle, it would be a great victory, let alone the capital of the Later Jin Dynasty! And an unknown Chu Yun actually became famous, making everyone in the court know that there was such a person!

"Okay, okay, okay!" Chongzhen was excited and said three good words unconsciously, "If the battle report is true, I will definitely be rewarded with great rewards to the general Chu Yun, the Dongjiang general!"

When civil and military officials heard the emperor's words, they were envious and jealous. As the saying goes, "Your Majesty has no jokes," Chu Yun is destined to be successful.

But which force Chu Yun is?

Several veteran figures of the Donglin Party looked at me, and I looked at you, and they couldn't help but frowned. Chu Yun was not from their Donglin Party, and he was not from Wei Zhongxian. He used to be one of the countless small officers who could not get on the table on weekdays!

Regarding Chu Yun's reward, a group of civil and military ministers quarreled for several days and jointly cleaned up the eunuchs, which gave Emperor Chongzhen a headache for a while. However, after all, this was a rare victory for the Ming Dynasty. The regaining of some cities in Liaodong allowed Emperor Chongzhen to see the hope of the Ming Dynasty's revival!

At the same time, Emperor Chongzhen was occasionally depressed. He allocated one million taels of silver to Ningyuan's defense line every year. Ningyuan's defense line was often beaten by the Later Jin. Why did the wild wilderness and wild-nation Fu Liao army in southern Liao received that little pitiful military pay every year and even captured the capital of the Later Jin?

After a dispute between civil and military ministers, the reward for Chu Yun was finally brought down. Chu Yun was promoted to Liaodong's strategy and ordered the complete pacification of Liaodong within three years! And the reward for officers at all levels of the Liao army were given!

Not only the officers of the Liao army, but also the governor of Liaonan who had been imprisoned by Chu Yun, Huang Qianhu and others were rewarded... Of course, they did not have the chance to know this news. Even if they knew, what could they do? Those who should mine still need to mine, and those who should be cotton still need to be cotton...

Along with Emperor Chongzhen's reward, another imperial edict from Emperor Chongzhen - Emperor Chongzhen is about to summon Chu Yun and ask Chu Yun to go to the capital to meet the saint immediately!

Not going. Chu Yun accepted the imperial edict, but he had no intention of dating Emperor Chongzhen at all.

I was in southern Liaoning and eastern Liaoning, so why did I take the risk to meet Chongzhen? Without the army and firearms, I went to the capital alone. It was undoubtedly a sheep entering the tiger's mouth. I didn't know how I died!

If he was to bring all the soldiers of the Fu Liao army into the Beijing face the Saint with muskets and cannons, Chu Yun could consider it.

Of course, Chu Yun could not refuse the messenger sent by Chongzhen so directly.

"Ahem, being able to meet the emperor is really a blessing for my three lives... but I was seriously injured in the battle with the Eight Banners, and there was no place that didn't hurt. Even if I had to serve the servants, I was afraid I was powerless..."

Chu Yun lay on the bed dyingly, with a gauze tied on his body, and the room was filled with the strong smell of Chinese herbal medicine. There were several maids next to him who were carefully serving Chu Yun.

"Cough cough..." Chu Yun coughed occasionally while speaking, covering his mouth with a white cloth.

The envoy sent by the court accidentally caught a glimpse of the blood stain on the white cloth in Chu Yun's hand and was slightly shocked. General Chu was really a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty. In order to recover Liaodong, he led the way and almost even paid his life! Only General Yue Feiyue, who was loyal to the country, can match such a general.

"General Chu also asked for a rest. This time, Your Majesty wanted to praise the general in person and discuss with the general the strategy to destroy the Later Jin Dynasty. Seeing that the general was seriously injured and might not be able to suffer the hardships of carriages, I would report to Your Majesty the truth, believing that Your Majesty would understand the general. Alas, if there were more generals like General Chu in my Ming Dynasty, I would have driven the group of Jiannu to the sea long ago." The envoy said.

"There is a messenger who has worked hard. I want the messenger to travel thousands of miles and return without any effort. I am really sorry. I have some feelings here, so please accept it with a smile." Chu Yun waved his hand powerlessly and asked a maid to take a tray.

"No." The messenger waved his hands repeatedly.

"Hey, this is a collection of some income from the Jin court. The Jin people are not doing well in war, and they are quite capable of tidying up the fine and soft escaping, so I didn't seize much. Cough cough, a little bit of it, please ask the messenger to see it before rejecting it." Chu Yun continued to say weakly, occasionally coughing up some blood.

The messenger glanced at the silver notes on the tray, and his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but take a breath of air conditioning.

"Since it is the silver of the Jin people, I would like to thank the general." The envoy couldn't control his hands and took the silver notes into his arms. "Please rest for a long time and say goodbye."

After the messenger left, Chu Yun called away the maids around him. Then he took off the gauze on his body and stretched. He felt that the Chinese herbal medicine in the room was too strong and he couldn't bear it even himself, so he quickly pushed open the window.

"Life is like a play, it all depends on acting!" Chu Yun greedily breathed the fresh air outside the window.

He didn't care whether he could deceive Chongzhen. All he needed was an excuse to refuse to meet the saint. The sea was wide and the fish leaped, and the sky was high and the birds were flying!
