The Yun Family Army has made another military exploit. As the eldest son of the Yun Kingdom, Yun Zheng naturally has to report to Emperor Wanchang in detail on behalf of his father, Commander Yun Lan. While performing the performance of the Yun Family Army, it is natural that he also has to praise His Majesty the Emperor's wise leadership with eloquence.
A long memorial of several thousand words, in a nutshell: Because His Majesty the Emperor led well and the Yun family army was united, they were able to defeat the dominant enemy forces with great courage and tenacity. This is a tribute to His Majesty Hong Fuqi.
Heaven is also a manifestation of the Yun Family Army's incomparable loyalty to the Wei Dynasty. Looking forward to the future, our Wei Dynasty, with the Holy Lord at the dynasty, will surely be able to carry forward the past and build up the future, and create a prosperous age unprecedented in all dynasties.
Then, of course, Emperor Wanchang couldn't help but give warm words to the Yun family's army and praise him from top to bottom. Yun Zheng didn't care about ten pairs of jade and thousands of pieces of brocade, but this time it was a great victory after all. Wanchang
The emperor couldn't afford to give all these things that were only of interest but not useful, so he gave a rare gift of 56,000 taels of gold and 70 horses.
Fifty-six thousand taels of gold means one tael for each of the ten guards who participated in the battle - of course, it will definitely not be divided like one tael for each of them. And the twenty commanders and deputy commanders of these ten guards
, each of the fifty thousand households was assigned a horse. Yun Zheng was more concerned about this reward, especially when he knew that these seventy horses were all Dawan horses, he smiled even more and asked him repeatedly.
The emperor expressed his thanks. For the army in the cold weapon era, the value of good horses is self-evident.
Some people were happy and some were sad. Compared with Yun Zheng's high spirits, Zhou Jun seemed a little embarrassed, because the reason why the Yun family's army was able to achieve such a great victory was because Xiao Tianyou really did what Yun Lan said in the last memorial.
He moved eastward to Shanxi. As a result, although the good news of Zhou Ye's recapture of Xiazhou reached the capital in time, the gold content of this good news was much inferior to that of the Yun family's army's victory, and in this way,
, the last time he and Yun Zheng had an argument about the battle situation in the Royal Garden, the Zhou family lost. This couldn't help but make him feel angry, and he even slandered his father, the "handsome" Zhou Ye.
However, His Majesty the Emperor seems to have long forgotten what happened in the Imperial Garden that day. Not only did he not mention that incident, he also praised the Zhou family very much, saying that they had made great contributions in regaining the lost land, although they did not reward gold or horses.
, but those honorable rewards are exactly the same as those given to the Yun family.
Yun Zheng had no reaction to the emperor's performance - at least not on the surface - because he now knew that the emperor's attitude towards the Yun family and the Zhou family did not depend on which family had more merit, but which family had more merit.
The emperor just wanted to strike a balance between the two families because of their great power. For example, when the Yun family has the advantage now, he tried his best not to let the Yun family be too much stronger than the Zhou family. It is conceivable that one day the Zhou family would be fighting against the Yun family.
In the confrontation between the Yun family and the Yun family, the emperor will definitely increase his efforts to support the Yun family. In the emperor's view, if these two families do not fight, wouldn't they threaten the imperial power? The so-called methods of the superior are nothing more than this.
After all the rewards were given, His Majesty the Emperor looked at the ministers, gave Xue Zongting a slight glance, and said: "Read it."
Xue Zongting took out an edict and read it loudly: "I heard that when the emperor governs the world, he must respect the ancestors of heaven and earth as the first priority. The truth of respecting the ancestors of heaven is that he is gentle and far-reaching, can provide for the common people, and share the benefits of the four seas.
The heart is the heart, which protects the country from danger and brings governance before chaos. It is the national plan for the long-term and the common people are close to each other.
I have been in power for eighteen years and twenty years since my crown was weak, and I have been in control of the world for eighteen years. I have been working hard at night and day, and I have always thought about the difficulties in the world. Therefore, I do not build new palaces or patrol the four directions to accumulate national strength, thinking that the people are favored by heaven. , Since the first year of Wanchang, the country has had few disasters, and the people's livelihood has gradually improved. However, the light of the treasure has always attracted thieves. There are Liao slaves in the north, whose wolf nature is untamed, greedy for my property, and repeatedly offends the power of God. Although our border troops We have defeated thieves many times, but the thieves rely on the speed of their horses, their speed, and their greed. They are extremely hateful.
Although I have been upholding benevolence and righteousness for a long time, I do not want the blood of that country to be flooded, but the animal nature has not been lost, and it comes again! I am angry with all the people! Therefore, the quasi-imperial family and the four border towns jointly established the thirty-sixth guard of the new army, thinking that To intimidate all parties
Today, the fourth son of the emperor, Sheng, is loyal, courageous and resolute, and can be the commander of the Longxiang Guard City; the sixth son of the emperor, Xi, is intelligent and benevolent, and can be the commander of the Fengwu Guard City.
There is also the prince Zheng of the Duke of the State of Yun, who came from a general family, knew military strategies at a young age, and has extraordinary martial prowess. He is as talented as today, and can be the commander of Yingyang Weidu; The Commander-in-Chief of the Wei Capital; Prince Ziyu of the State of Chong... can be the Commander-in-Chief of the Langya Guard City; Prince Zifan of Jiang State... can be the Commander-in-Chief of the Yuanjia Guard City
These six sons are of noble character and have sufficient talents and knowledge. They will definitely be able to achieve my wishes, train a new army, and shock all nations! Proclamation will be made to China and foreign countries, and the envoys will know this and appreciate it!"
As soon as this edict was read, a feeling suddenly arose in the minds of the ministers: The new armies in these four major border towns are all commanded by the prince. Could they be turned into the prince's army?
Yun Zheng and Zhou Jun looked at each other, wondering in their hearts that what happened this time was such a coincidence, why did the four families send their princes out?
Originally, Yun Zheng had no intention of personally leading the Ying Yang Guard. In his opinion, he would be the commander-in-chief in the future and the entire Yun Family Army would be under his control. There was no need to personally control this new army of six guards. After Lin Xi told him what he said in the past, he felt that it would be helpful for him to have a say in the family if there was an army that he managed from establishment to training, so he suggested that Yun Lan say that he I want to personally lead this Eagle Guard
As for Zhou Jun, his status within the family is not very stable, so he hopes to control an army led by himself. The Leng family and the Jiang family don't know why.
Leng Yu, the eldest son of the Leng family, and Jiang Fan, the eldest son of the Jiang family, are not here now, so I have to help my sons express their gratitude. So the two brothers Lin Sheng and Lin Xi took the lead, and Yun Zheng and Zhou Jun came forward to kowtow to thank Tian En.
The civil and military officials looked at this scene and were a little curious in their hearts. What would the new army led by such a group of young commanders look like?
In fact, most of the courtiers are relatively optimistic about Yun Zheng and Zhou Jun, because these two princes have achieved military success. Zhou Jun has been accompanying Zhou Ye to fights a few years ago, although he has never led an army alone. , but after being with the Marshal's father for many years, you should have learned a lot of skills, right? Not to mention Yunzheng, in the eyes of these courtiers, didn't he just achieve a great victory not long ago? To defeat an enemy of fifty thousand, Marshal Yun's strength is beyond compare! Fortunately, Yun Zheng himself didn't know what they were thinking, otherwise even if he was thick-skinned, he wouldn't be able to help but blush.
Apart from Yun Zheng and Zhou Jun, Leng Yu and Jiang Fan's odds are pretty good. After all, they are from military families and have learned to lead troops since they were young. They are at least better than the two princes Lin Sheng and Lin Xi. A man with a grumpy temper like a butcher, a gentle and pure scholar, saying they can lead an army? Hehe, I'm afraid the man in the front will cause a mutiny in the army, and the man in the back... may teach his army the words of a sage.
