Everyone in the Wenhua Hall, whether they knew the military or not, were dumbfounded.
When they thought about it, the Jianlu and Mongol Tatars who invaded the pass this time totaled more than 100,000 troops. If Sun Chuanting's troops wanted to defeat such an enemy, especially when the Jianlu and the commander of the Jianlu were captured alive in the end, it would be absolutely impossible.
It was a hard fight. Maybe my own losses would be very heavy.
Unexpectedly, according to the information in the victory report, it was said that less than 3,000 imperial officers and soldiers died in the battle, and more than 7,000 were injured. Among them, the most casualties were during the Jizhou city defense battle.
However, the Jianlu and Mongol Tatars who entered the pass were almost completely wiped out. Although the final statistics of the battle results have not been released, there are still about 30,000 Jianlu and Mongol Tatars at large. However, this kind of collapsed team is already insignificant.
Even if they were allowed to escape, how many would return to Liaodong?
This great victory was truly beyond their imagination! So much so that every one of the most senior officials of the Ming Dynasty in the Wenhua Hall cried with joy.
Those are the Jianlu, and they can defeat them like this. Doesn't it mean that Liaodong, which was originally thought to be impossible to recover, may be recovered? There are also the bandits in the pass, who originally thought that there was no possibility of quelling the chaos, but they are so strong.
With the emergence of an imperial army, is it possible for the world to be at peace?
Although they are at the top of the temple, troubled times have the least impact on them. However, since it is troubled times, it will have an impact on them after all.
Not to mention anything else, the high-ranking officials of the Ming Dynasty in the north would definitely suffer disaster every time they were invaded by bandits. They were also ravaged by bandits, and if their hometowns were captured by bandits, they would definitely die.
ethnic.
The high-ranking officials of the Ming Dynasty in the south were originally relatively stable. However, in the past two years, bandits have flowed south, and now they are wreaking havoc in Jiangnan and even South Zhili, threatening the capital.
Originally, they felt very powerless against the Jianlu in the north and the bandits in the pass. They didn't know how to avoid them! But now, with this great victory, they immediately saw hope that they would have the world.
Peaceful hope!
As long as you are a human being, there is basically no one who does not want peace in the world!
While they were getting excited, Wang Chengen finished reading the victory report, suddenly turned around and knelt down to Emperor Chongzhen. Taotao cried loudly: "Long live the Lord God, the gods are powerful, the people of the world are finally saved, my emperor, long live, long live, long live."
Long live!"
"..." The excited senior officials of the Ming Dynasty below were stunned for a moment when they saw it, and then they immediately reacted and immediately fell to their knees on the ground, shouting almost in unison, "Long live the power of God, the people of the world are finally saved."
Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live!"
Emperor Chongzhen was happy when he suddenly saw Wang Chengen taking the lead and pointing out the credit for this achievement. He was immediately elated. He no longer wanted to dress calmly. He narrowed his eyes happily and said with a smile.
: "My dear friends, please get back to health quickly!"
After standing up according to the words, Du Yinxi suddenly spoke first and said: "This battle was such a great victory, and not many soldiers of the imperial court died in the battle. It was all due to the new armor made by your majesty, and I am watching this battle."
After all, the ordnance and gunpowder that your Majesty prepared so painstakingly are all indispensable! This battle is all due to your Majesty’s bravery and martial prowess!”
When Wang Chengen heard this, he exclaimed in his heart, this flattery was going to hit the heart of Long Live Lord. So, he quickly turned around and looked, and sure enough, he saw that Emperor Chongzhen was very helpful, and his eyes once again narrowed into a smile.
seam.
He rolled his eyes, followed immediately, and reported to Emperor Chongzhen: "Long live the Lord's miraculous calculations. He has planned this battle a long time ago. It can be said that he is strategizing and winning thousands of miles away! The slaves know that only Emperor Taizu and Emperor Chengzu
Got it!"
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he scratched his itch again.
For this battle, he really started preparing early and deployed a trap waiting for Jianlu. What Wang Chengen said about his clever calculation and strategizing was not wrong. He and his idol were too
Emperor Zu was compared to Emperor Chengzu. The happiness in his heart was really sweeter than eating honey, and he immediately burst into laughter.
At this time, the people carrying the sedan chair were carrying people, and other senior officials of the Ming Dynasty saw them. Even the chief minister He Fengsheng also praised Emperor Chongzhen, which made Emperor Chongzhen feel that this was the most enjoyable time in his life! Compared with him
It’s great to get married, be enthroned, etc.!
When he got married, he was not too happy as expected. After all, he was the vassal king at the time and had no shortage of women. The princess would definitely have one.
When he ascended the throne as emperor, it was originally a great good thing, but at that time, 9,000-year-old Wei Zhongxian was in charge both internally and externally. He was even worried that he would be murdered by Wei Zhongxian. How could he be happy at all?
But this time, he knows best that in two years, his country will be exterminated. But now, he can confirm that such a thing will never happen again!
With hard work, everything turned around in one go. It was the first time I felt this kind of achievement!
If he had known this, the crooked-necked tree would not have been cut down, and it would have been left as a souvenir! Otherwise, Liu Weichao would definitely laugh at himself if he found out.
When he thought of this, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but wanted to tell Liu Weichao the good news, so he said to his ministers: "You can discuss the reward, and I will come as soon as I go!"
After saying this, he hurriedly turned to the back hall.
When these officials from the six cabinet ministries who were in the mood to flatter him saw him, they were a little dumbfounded. They didn't expect that Emperor Chongzhen would come to this place.
In the past, they would have thought that His Majesty might be in a hurry. But now they have experience and looked at each other with respectful expressions.
There was no other reason. They should have guessed that His Majesty was about to report the good news to Emperor Taizu! No, when His Majesty entered the back hall, he had already gone to pick up the treasure given by Emperor Taizu!
That's right, as soon as Emperor Chongzhen entered the apse, he immediately contacted Liu Weichao via video.
As soon as he was connected, he couldn't wait to say to Liu Weichao: "Great victory, great victory, great victory in Jizhou!"
Liu Weichao laughed when he heard this, and immediately replied to Emperor Chongzhen: "That's it, congratulations!"
"Hahaha..." Emperor Chongzhen immediately laughed happily, and then gave a detailed battle report.
Liu Weichao looked at Emperor Chongzhen in the video. He was beaming with joy. He really didn't look like that kind of aloof emperor. He didn't even look like a man in his thirties. Instead, he looked like a child who got candy!
Of course he understood this situation and was happy for him.
After all, I definitely have my own share of the credit for this great victory.
The Ming Dynasty can be revived, starting from this war!
And with the Ming Dynasty reviving, your business will become more and more prosperous. This is a win-win situation!
Emperor Chongzhen, after sharing his happiness with Liu Weichao, also asked Liu Weichao for advice: "Then my next step is to carry out currency reform?"
This great victory made Emperor Chongzhen unconsciously rely on Liu Weichao even more! This may be due to his nature.
Emperor Chongzhen, if you believe in someone, you will believe in him unconditionally. For example, Yuan Chonghuan back then.
But now, everything Liu Weichao has brought to him is obvious to all, and he naturally regards Liu Weichao as his most dependent person!
At this time, Liu Weichao listened to Emperor Chongzhen's words and said with a smile: "I have thought about it for you, and even posted it on the forum. I have assumed your situation and brainstormed what you think. Of course, in our era,
I haven’t been there personally, so you can only use it as a reference and base it on the actual situation!”
"Oh? What is a forum?" When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he couldn't help but be very curious and asked quickly.
After hearing this, Ou Weichao smiled and said, "It's like communicating with you, but it's just words, and it can be discussed with many people."
After a pause, he immediately added: "Don't worry about this, just listen and see if it's useful to you. I also had a sudden idea and went to the forum to post a post to see what others said.
"
Emperor Chongzhen was very interested and replied with a smile: "Okay, I am all ears!"
Seeing that Emperor Chongzhen was really serious, Liu Weichao also became serious and said to him: "The reform of the currency system is imperative. It will not only ease your finances, but also promote commerce, that is, the prosperity of business. By the way,
Let’s take advantage of the prestige of this victory to set up a bank. No matter what others think, we must do this!”
Without waiting for Emperor Chongzhen to ask questions, he continued: "Secondly, we feel that your great victory this time just solves the problem of Guan Ning's army being unable to lose its tail. Take this opportunity to mobilize Guan Ning's army to the capital to lead the army."
Reward, and then let General Qin take the opportunity to lead the Baigan Army to garrison Shanhaiguan, while Guan Ning Army will be transferred to the south to quell the civil strife after receiving the reward..."
Hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but be overjoyed.
To be honest, he has been worried since he learned about what Guan Ningjun did in the original history.
Shanhaiguan is really very important to the capital. Even if Jianlu is severely damaged now, if Guan Ning's army defectes to Jianlu, it will be very unfavorable to the world situation.
Now, according to Liu Weichao's proposal, it is a good time to seal Xuelong as the governor of Jiliao and lead Zhongzhenhou's Baigan Army to guard the front line of Shanhaiguan. It will definitely be no problem and it is reassuring.
By the way, transferring Guan Ning's army to the south to suppress the rebellion is considered a waste. Oh, it doesn't count. After all, Guan Ning's army can be considered an elite force!
Thinking like this, he quickly nodded with joy and said: "Okay, okay, this is a good idea, I will remember it!"
To be honest, he didn't understand much about currency reform and the establishment of banks, but he felt good about this method of dealing with Guan Ningjun.
Thinking of this, he immediately asked with expectation: "What else?"
