Above the court, Emperor Longqing sat firmly on the throne. He listened to the ministers below.
Ever since Sun Chuanting went north a few days ago, Emperor Longqing has been uneasy. Especially when Sun Chuanting's first letter came back, Emperor Longqing almost fainted!
Forty thousand frontier troops! 20,000 people were eaten by Niu Jizong, a bastard! There was also an empty armory!
Since Emperor Longqing succeeded to the throne, he has never been short of military pay for the border army no matter how short of money he is, because Emperor Longqing knows that the border army is the country's first and most important barrier.
In the past few days, Emperor Longqing ordered Wang Ziteng to mobilize the Beijing camp to be on standby to defend the capital. At the same time, he ordered people to strictly guard all the gates of the capital. All the royal guards were also dispatched to strictly monitor all ministers in the capital.
What Emperor Longqing was worried about was not only Houjin's failure, but also the fact that people with good intentions would take the opportunity to cause trouble! Insiders are always more worrying and frightening than foreign enemies!!
What's more, the capital city now is not connected by railways. Everyone forms cliques and forms parties for personal gain. If the security is not intact, some people are hoping that Hou Jin will attack the capital city! They can take the opportunity to turn things upside down!
At this moment, the young eunuch outside the palace gate led a beaming soldier into the hall. This soldier was one of the three thousand soldiers of the Shenji Battalion.
Facing this soldier entering the store, no ministers were surprised. Because the soldier was wearing the 800-mile chess piece.
The soldiers took out the baggage, inspected it in front of everyone and made sure it was not dangerous, and then presented it to Emperor Longqing.
Emperor Longqing first glanced at the soldier kneeling under the dragon chair, and saw that the soldier's face was filled with joy, so obviously this battle report was not bad news.
After Emperor Longqing was prepared, he opened his bag, took out the battle report and read it.
This battle report was written by Sun Chuanting, which recorded in detail the heavy losses suffered by the Ming army in the First Battle of Liaodong Town.
Fortunately, Xue Hong led 3,000 elite soldiers and brought new artillery around to the Houjin military camp. The artillery fire plowed the ground all over the Houjin army, and Houjin blew up the camp. He took the opportunity to counterattack, and Xue Hong attacked front and back, and finally wiped out all the enemy troops.
A total of 84,731 beheads were beheaded in this battle. Because the Hou Jin army fought to the death and refused to surrender, there were no prisoners. (Hou Jin soldier: You fart!!)
There were originally 20,000 border troops in Liaodong Town, but after successive battles, only more than 3,000 were left. The 20,000 elite troops originally mobilized by the Jingying camp were now less than 7,000, and the total of 10,000 troops mobilized by Jingzhou and other prefectures was only 1,770.
More than a hundred people.
The brutality of the battle and the bravery of the soldiers are vividly before my eyes. Please, Your Majesty, give a great reward to the soldiers who died.
In addition, Lord Xue Hong, a member of the Ministry of Industry, who was in charge of the garrison, and the young man Qiao Rui, led three thousand cavalry and armed with new rifles. They first trampled the Chahar tribe and burned the food and grass in the Chahar tribe's camp. Then they led three thousand cavalry.
Support immediately. Otherwise Liaodong will be in danger.
This battle was won thanks to the bravery of the soldiers, the strength of Liaodong's city, Xue Hong's sharpness, and the power of new firearms and mortars!
However, after this battle, the defense in Liaodong was empty. I hope that your Majesty will send a garrison early and Sun Chuanting will pay his respects.
After reading the information, Emperor Long Qing could hardly hide the smile on his face, but he still looked majestic and calm, but the corners of his mouth that couldn't be suppressed made him happy no matter how he looked at it.
Emperor Longqing: "Xia Shouzhong! Come here and read this good news to your loved ones!"
"And you, I know you are a soldier of the Shenji Battalion. Thank you for your hard work. Go down and rest!"
Xia Shouzhong began to read the news after his victory, and the ministers had different expressions after hearing the contents of the news.
"Holy shit! Is it true? It's ridiculous that Sun Chuanting can lead the old, weak, sick and disabled frontier troops in Liaodong to defend the attack of a 130,000-strong army!
Now you are saying that Xue Hong led people to bypass the rear and cooperated with Sun Chuanting to annihilate the Hou Jin army! No matter how you hear this, it sounds like a story!!"
It's not that the ministers don't believe the battle report, but that in the past few decades, the Ming Dynasty has been harassed and bullied by the aliens from the north.
Because the internal conflicts in the Ming Dynasty are becoming more and more serious, the Supreme Emperor and Emperor Longqing cannot spare any effort to rectify the army.
The problem of drinking soldiers' blood and eating empty pay is very serious, which also results in the combat effectiveness of the Ming Dynasty army being far inferior to that of a hundred years ago!
However, there are also many people who are willing to believe the authenticity of this information. After all, there have been so many outrageous battles from ancient times to the present. Eight hundred against one hundred thousand has happened several times! Do you think so, Zhong Mou?
The Chinese ancestors have taken the cold weapon army battle to the extreme!
The famous Emperor Longqing spread the news of the great victory in Liaodong Town.
The entire capital city was plunged into a commotion.
The people talked a lot about everything.
Some people say that Emperor Longqing is talented and wise, some say that Sun Chuanting is handsome and talented, and some say that Xue Hong is the world champion.
Among these rumors, the most mentioned one is Xue Hong, who led the army for the first time at the age of sixteen and achieved such results! He is even the same age as the champion Hou Huo Qubing when he first went on the war!
Is it possible that the real champion Mr. Hou has come to the world again??
Although there have been many champions in all dynasties from ancient times to the present, everyone knows in their hearts that there is only one true young legend and champion!
Now that there is another young man showing the style of a champion, could it be that Tianxing Ming Dynasty!!!
People in ancient times believed most in the induction of heaven and man. The reason why Emperor Longqing placed a treasure on Xue Hong was also to create momentum.
But Emperor Longqing didn't expect that Xue Hong and Sun Chuanting could give him such a big surprise!!
After this battle, Hou Jin will not be able to take any action against the Ming Dynasty Border Town for at least five years!
In Prince Fu's Mansion, Zhu Hui and Chen Chen learned the news of Xue Hong's victory. They were so happy that they drank all night and got very drunk!
In the Xue Mansion, Xue Pan jumped up and down happily, saying: "No, no, no! When eldest brother comes back, I must beg him to go out with me once! It's so honorable!!"
Baochai was relatively quiet, but the smile on her face could not go away.
Aunt Xue was even more interesting. She went to the Buddhist temple that night to repent, saying that she had wronged Xingjun who had descended to earth.
After Lin Daiyu got the news, she was also shocked with her mouth open. A sixteen-year-old boy who defeated thousands of generals! He is a living legend no matter how you look at it!
The Jia family is the most interesting. After hearing that the news reached the Jia family, Jia Zheng was the first to come to his senses. He took Jia Baoyu and went to the ancestral hall to have a heart-to-heart talk with his father and son.
Mrs. Wang sat on the chair, her handkerchief was almost crushed, and her back molars were gritted so hard that sparks popped out: Why wasn't such a feat made by her? Why did that wild child who no one wanted have such a good fortune?
!!
Jia Mu, on the other hand, sighed and regretted that she was not decisive enough in the first place.
After Yingchun heard the good news, she also showed a rare expression of excitement, but then she became sad, and finally returned to her usual dull look.
After hearing the content of the good news, Jia She had a look of excitement on his face, and said "Okay" three times in a row! But after a while, Jia She seemed to think of something, and then became depressed, trying to calm down his mood, and let himself and
Same as usual.
In short, the good news stirred up waves, and it was destined to be a sleepless night in the capital.
