Chapter 206: A Triumph Return

Zhu Youxiao himself didn't know what the consequences of these three imperial edicts, especially the last one, would be, but the emergency situation meant that he had no time to waste time in Liaodong, so he had to throw it out first.

Moreover, Liaodong at this moment is the best base for testing his new ideas. He has just defeated the Jurchens and there is no pressure from the outside. All the local forces entrenched in Liaodong suffered heavy losses in the previous large-scale retreat, and Sun Chengzong will continue to do so in the future.

Based on the individual performance in the previous Jurchen strategic plan, the Liaodong army will be purged. In this way, when both the military and the civilians are satisfied, some new policies will be implemented, and resistance and losses will be minimized.

On the first day of May in the first year of Tianqi, outside the Yongding Gate of the capital, hundreds of officials gathered, and the common people lined the streets. The city head was covered with colorful silks, and the colorful silks were colorful and meandering, which made people dizzy.

Tang Ruowang took Serena and followed Xu Guangqi, among a large number of officials, looking eagerly awaiting.

It is human nature to watch the excitement, not to mention the emperor's grandson, oh no, he should be the emperor now. Tang Ruowang has always been very interested in matters about this emperor.

The reason is none other than an agreement between the two. Last year, His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire, who was still the grandson of the Emperor, said that as long as Tang Ruowang was willing to work for him and forge the best guns in the world, he would support it.

He built a church in Beijing.

Building a church in the capital of this huge empire is something that Tang Ruowang never dared to dream of. This is not a backward place in the New World or Africa. This is a civilized country that is not inferior to Europe. It is the golden country described by Marco Polo.

Heaven on earth.

If he could preach in the capital of this country... Just thinking about it made Tang Ruowang's breathing quicken.

With eager anticipation, he had been waiting for the summons from His Majesty the Emperor, who was the Emperor's grandson at the time. However, after returning, His Majesty the Emperor seemed to have forgotten about him, and did not summon him to Beijing until he ascended the throne as emperor.

"Probably, His Majesty the Great Emperor has just ascended the throne, and there are still many things to deal with!" Tang Ruowang thought naively at the time, and then he kept waiting, and this waiting lasted for more than half a year, until near the end of April, Tang Ruowang finally

Can't wait any longer.

He packed his luggage and took the gifts he carefully prepared, and Tang Ruowang set foot on the road to the capital. However, as soon as he arrived in the capital, he heard the news that the emperor was about to lead his army back to the capital.

This news made him stunned. He had never known when His Majesty the Great Emperor left the capital. For this reason, he found Xu Guangqi, who was also a church member, and inquired about it, and then he found out the whole story, which led to the current scene.

Emperor Apocalypse commanded 30,000 Yulin troops to defeat the Jurchens outside Ningyuan City. He annihilated tens of thousands of enemies in the first battle. In the second battle, he killed the slave chief Erhaci and destroyed the entire Jurchen Eight Banners.

When such shocking news spread throughout the capital, all the subjects did not believe it. The slave chief who had humiliated the entire Ming Empire and lost almost all the territory in Liaodong died like this? The Eight Banners Army under his command also

Almost annihilated?

Everyone can't believe it. A few days ago, they abandoned Liaodong and withdrew into the Pass. How could they now turn defeat into victory and destroy the enemy in one fell swoop? This is ridiculous.

Even though the Imperial Daily News later published the news and attached the inscriptions throughout the capital to confirm that the news was true, there were still a large number of civilians and officials who couldn't believe it was true. This was simply unbelievable.

People can't believe it.

For a time, various turmoils arose. Some said that the emperor's personal expedition failed and he said so on purpose. Some said that it was a deception sent by the government to cover up the previous loss of territory. Some even said that the emperor died.

There are all kinds of rumors.

This trend lasted for five or six days, until today, when the emperor returned to the capital, it gradually subsided. After all, the Yulin Army came to the door and held a welcome party. Just go and have a look then.

When the specific date arrived, even though the cabinet did not announce it, the people of Forty-Nine City were all monkeys and monkeys. They knew from the first sign that it was today. As a result, they all came in swarms. Although the city defense troops maintained order, they still blocked the way.

The people's determination to watch the excitement could not be restrained.

The entire capital was deserted today. Even if the Yongding Gate could not be remembered, the roads behind and the attics were still full of people. The crowds stretched for several kilometers, and it was a spectacular sight.

Boom!

The sound of heavy horse hoofbeats signaled the arrival of the Yulin Army. At first, the subjects standing at the city gate only saw a puff of smoke. After entering, they saw clearly that they were countless knights.

The black breastplate reflected the cold luster in the sunlight, which shocked people's hearts. The whole rumbling sound gradually became louder from far to near.

When they were still one mile away from the city gate, the knight slowed down and marched forward, and countless officials came out to greet him.

"We sincerely welcome your majesty on his triumphant return. Our emperor is mighty!"

Without waiting for Zhu Youxiao, who was leading the charge, to approach, all the subjects fell to their knees with a crash, shouting like a mountain and a tsunami, and the sound shook the sky.

"My beloved lords, you will be exempted from the ceremony."

Seeing this spectacular scene, Zhu Youxiao was quite impressed. His eyes kept scanning the kneeling crowd, enjoying their adoring gazes.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The ministers who came out to greet them all got up from the loess, then either boarded the carriage, or got on horseback, followed the officer corps, and went in with the emperor. Almost all civil servants rode in carriages and rode horses.

There were only a few people, so these people were very conspicuous, which made Zhu Youxiao take a few more glances, but they did not ask rashly. The lively scene today belonged to the Yulin Army.

The soldiers of the Yulin Army also looked excited and extremely proud at this time. It was the first time for them to enjoy such a scene, and they were very shocked. At the same time, they also felt a magical feeling of incomparable glory in their hearts.

"This is the honor the company commander is talking about!" A soldier thought silently in his heart. He seemed to understand what the officers had been emphasizing that we are a division of kings.

Since a lot of war horses were captured this time, all the soldiers of the Yulin Army had a horse, so they were moving quite fast. After the war horses, there were cannons. These ferocious weapons made the people of the capital marvel. They never stopped.

I have never paid such close attention to such a powerful military weapon, so there is a look of surprise in my eyes.

The entire welcoming team lined the road was quite calm when Zhu Youxiao passed by. Countless people knelt down, even the city defense troops and police officers who maintained order, oh no, the police, were the same. They only dared to look up secretly.

One glance at the beauty of heaven.

But when Zhu Youxiao and the senior officers in the platoon passed by, the scene suddenly became lively, and the scene of eating pots of pulp suddenly started. Well, these are a bit fake, maybe it is the arrangement of Shuntian Mansion, but there are countless others behind it.

Colorful brocade handkerchiefs were thrown from upstairs or from the street.

After throwing away the brocade handkerchiefs, the girls blushed and hid away, not daring to look at anyone. Of course, there were also bold ones who looked directly at the young soldier who received their brocade handkerchief. In this case, it was the soldier who

They were embarrassed.

"Haha, it turned out to be a blind date conference." Zhu Youxiao looked at the situation and looked extremely happy.

"This is all because your Majesty is wise and brave, loves the people like a son, and is loved by the people, which is why he has such a grand occasion." Li Ruhua also answered the hero Haha. Naturally, they were honored by such a scene.

After that, the entire triumphal ceremony was held in a warm atmosphere and lasted for the entire morning. The entire capital was immersed in pride and excitement. Seeing the Jurchen Tatars who were skewered into candied haws, no one doubted this time.
Chapter completed!
