A horse kept running on the streets of the capital. Wherever it passed, everyone got out of the way and raised their ears high, waiting for the arrival of good news.
"Get out of the way~get out of the way~"
"800 miles urgent~800 miles urgent~"
"Great victory~great victory~"
"Three armies wiped out the Tatars, and the little prince was beheaded!"
While running towards the palace quickly, he also shouted loudly.
"Haha~ I won!"
All the people of the Ming Dynasty who heard this voice couldn't help but cheered. The unprecedented victory gathered the power of the entire Ming Dynasty. It not only gave them a hard lesson, but also punished all the Tatars who went south this time forever.
Even the little prince Dayan Khan could not escape back to the grassland.
"A great victory~a great victory, the Tatars were wiped out, and the little prince was beheaded!"
The excited people kept running and shouting loudly. Soon, the news spread throughout the streets and alleys of the capital at a terrifying speed. Suddenly, the entire capital was plunged into a sea of celebration.
"Crackling~"
Someone took out firecrackers and lit them as if celebrating the New Year to celebrate this great victory.
"To celebrate the annihilation of the Tatars and the execution of the little prince, all purchases at Wangyue Tower are half price today~"
Wangyue Tower immediately put up a half-price sign and lit firecrackers at the same time.
Of course, just like Wangyue Tower, teahouses, restaurants, theaters, etc., as well as large and small shops on the streets in the capital, almost all lit up the firecrackers that had been prepared long ago and hung out their celebratory displays.
Signboards for events, consumption discounts, and discounts on purchases.
Even the Red Mansion Chu Pavilion in the capital launched a preferential event, and some girls even said that as long as they killed the Tatar heroes on the battlefield, they would entertain them for free, and they suddenly won the prize.
There was a roar of applause.
Here in the Imperial College, the scholars have not been interested in studying these days. The young people are most concerned about the country and the people, and take major world events as their own responsibility. The Ming Dynasty and the Tatars went to war. Such a big event, the scholars in the Imperial College are naturally focused on it.
Almost every day, they study the latest Tomorrow Morning News and discuss the battle situation they have written down. Whenever good news comes back, these scholars are the most excited and happiest.
Some people recite poems and write lyrics, others ride horses and carry swords, wishing they could fight on the battlefield and be wrapped in horse leather.
"Great victory~great victory~"
"Three armies wiped out the Tatars, and the little prince was beheaded!"
Someone came to the Imperial Academy in a hurry and shouted loudly without even having time to take a breath.
"Okay~"
Suddenly the entire Imperial College exploded, and every scholar cheered excitedly.
"Let's go, let's go to Wangyue Tower. I won't come back until I'm drunk today~"
"When it comes to light~"
"Anyone who offends our strong men will be punished no matter how far away they are!"
"Huh~ I finally got rid of the bad breath in my chest. I go south every year and plunder my Ming Dynasty every year. I burn, kill and loot. I do all kinds of evil. The cycle of cause and effect will bring me unsatisfactory retribution."
One after another the scholars screamed with joy, and some immediately wrote exquisite poems on the spot to praise this great moment.
In the palace.
Emperor Hongzhi and many ministers were discussing anxiously. Of course, they were more anxiously waiting. Everything that needed to be done had been done, and all that was left was to wait.
And everyone knows that the final decisive battle will definitely take place within one or two days. Whether they can completely annihilate these Tatars and kill the little prince, everyone actually does not have much confidence in their hearts.
But this battle is already won.
Regardless of whether the Tatars were wiped out in the end, or whether the little prince was left behind, the Ming Dynasty has achieved victory. At least for now, the annihilation of 80,000 Tatars is such a huge victory. This is definitely an unprecedented victory.
.
Even when Zhu Di was in power in history, Zhu Di's seven expeditions to Mobei did not achieve such a huge victory, wiping out 80,000 Tatars. This can almost be said to have sent the Tatars to the eighteenth level of hell in one fell swoop.
Although the grassland is very large, it is destined not to have a large population because of its nomadic lifestyle. In later generations, Outer Mongolia has an area of almost 1.8 million square kilometers, but has a population of only over 3 million people. From here you can
We know that the grassland is really vast and sparsely populated.
At this time, it was still the Ming Dynasty, and medical technology was far inferior to that of later generations. The population of this era was even more sparse. With almost all the people in the army, the little prince was able to produce 120,000 troops.
And these 120,000 horses can be said to be almost all the young and middle-aged people on the grassland. Killing the opponent's 80,000 people at once is the heaviest blow to the entire grassland.
Even if the little prince Dayan Khan could escape back to the grassland, with only the remaining men and horses, the north would not be able to pose any substantial threat to the Ming Dynasty for a long, long time. It can be said to be a real war.
Determine the universe.
So even though everyone was a little anxious about the final battle, they all had smiles on their faces and seemed relatively relaxed.
Emperor Hongzhi has also been eating well and sleeping well these days, and his energy and energy have improved a lot. Of course, because the war has been going very well, Emperor Hongzhi has also begun to show some domineering aura in his body.
"Great victory~great victory~"
"Three armies wiped out the Tatars, and the little prince was beheaded!"
At this time, a small yellow doorman came hurriedly, and before anyone arrived, he shouted at the top of his lungs.
Xiao Jing has already given instructions that if there is good news, he must shout it loudly, so that Emperor Hongzhi can know it early.
"Okay~"
When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he clenched his fists in excitement.
They actually wiped out all the Tatars, and even the little prince couldn't escape. This far exceeded Emperor Hongzhi's expectations. Originally, he thought he could kill half of the people in the little prince's headquarters and let the little prince escape in despair.
It's a great victory.
Unexpectedly, in the end, all the Tatars were wiped out, and even the little prince could not escape, which made people overjoyed.
"Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty~"
Ministers Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, Xie Qian, Zhou Jing, Ma Wensheng, and Zhang Mao also all smiled, then looked at each other, and all stood up to congratulate Emperor Hongzhi.
"Okay~Okay~"
Emperor Hongzhi was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear, and his whole chest felt relaxed, as if a breath of bad breath had disappeared completely.
Over the years, Daming has indeed been bullied miserably by the little prince.
Since the Tumubao Incident, the northern Tatars have been moving southward year after year, especially the little prince Dayan Khan, who is so talented and ambitious that he regards the Ming Dynasty as a sheep.
Even if they went south to plunder every year, the key point was that they often sent envoys to the capital to show off their power to Emperor Hongzhi and put forward many demanding requirements.
For example, he asked the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute to him as a vassal, or to ask the Ming Dynasty to send a princess to marry him, etc. His attitude was extremely arrogant. Of course, every time, neither Emperor Hongzhi nor the ministers of the Ming Dynasty would agree to it.
In the Ming Dynasty, although the military was not strong, they would never pay tribute or make peace with each other. They still had strong integrity. Although the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were more weird and unreliable than the last, at least they had strong integrity.
There are still some, and they are the hardest-boned among all dynasties.
But the grassland people seem to know this, and they send envoys to disgust you almost every year. In autumn and winter, they also go south to plunder you every year.
Sometimes the little prince would point his sword at the capital of Ming Dynasty when he was unhappy, and he would constantly provoke Ming Dynasty's nerves and stimulate Ming Dynasty.
However, due to the weak military strength of the Ming Dynasty and the emptiness of the treasury, Emperor Hongzhi could not express his anger even though his bones were strong.
He could only endure it, he could only watch his people being slaughtered, and he could only watch the bandits act recklessly, but there was nothing he could do.
This time, the reason why he made up his mind to fight the grassland people was actually to let out a sigh of relief. The bad breath in his chest was really uncomfortable.
He had no money before, but now that Emperor Hongzhi has money, he has emptied his own money. He will take this tone and teach the grassland people a lesson.
Now that all the grassland people were wiped out, and even the little prince was beheaded, the bad breath in Emperor Hongzhi's heart disappeared completely. Of course, not only Emperor Hongzhi, but the entire Ming Dynasty also let out a bad breath.
Everyone knows that the Tatars went south to plunder, burn, kill, and loot, and committed all kinds of evil. Many people even had relatives and friends die at the hands of the Tatars, and they had a blood feud with the Tatars.
It's just that the Ming Dynasty has done nothing much, and the emperors it has produced are more bizarre than the others. Finally, the Emperor Hongzhi is more reliable.
But Emperor Hongzhi liked to listen to civil servants and expected these civil servants to take revenge?
So I can only watch the Tatars go unpunished, watch them go south every year, plunder every year, treat the people of the Ming Dynasty as leeks, cut one crop after another, come every year, every year
Returned with a full load.
The common people of the Ming Dynasty also had a bad breath in their hearts.
Now, both the evil spirit in Emperor Hongzhi's chest and the evil spirit in the hearts of the common people have disappeared all at once. Everyone is celebrating, and the whole capital is as lively as the New Year.
"The mighty Ming Dynasty~"
In the streets and alleys of the capital, people walked out of their homes and ran to each other to tell each other. Everyone couldn't help but shout out together. It used to be that Ming Dynasty must win, but now it has been changed to Ming Dynasty Mighty.
At the same time, the common people in the capital couldn't help but raise their heads when walking. Especially when they encountered Koreans, Japanese people, and barbarians, everyone straightened their opinions and acted like a bully.
Coaxing.
The foreigners who received the news couldn't help but widen their eyes, especially the barbarians who were coming and going. They were even more frightened. The Ming Dynasty was so powerful that it could completely annihilate the grassland army, even the small ones.
