Ming Dynasty: Tanks blocked the door and you said to me, "Long live Ming Dynasty"

Having said that, he turned and looked at Mao Wenlong beside him.

"Have you sent the letter I asked you to send to the Yehe tribe?"

Mao Wenlong nodded quickly: "When I received the imperial edict, I sent my confidant to deliver the message."

"But Dorgon changed his route, and I am not sure whether the two sides will collide or not."

Zhu Youxiao smiled and shook his head: "It doesn't matter whether we bump into each other or not."

"The important thing is that we have now figured out where Dorgon fled to."

"All that's left is to send people to give chase!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Xiangsheng stepped forward and volunteered.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to lead my troops into battle!"

Chapter 308 Reward

The pursuit of Dorgon was the final outcome of this battle.

Zhu Youxiao rejected Lu Xiangsheng's request to fight and instead gave the task to the Jinyiwei.

Traveling long distances and going deep into places without help, the Jinyiwei are better at this than the Shenjiying.

Moreover, even if they really caught up with Dorgon, it would not necessarily be necessary to fight him with real weapons.

The Jinyiwei were even more adept at poisoning and arson.

After handing the task over to Sun Kangwang and asking someone to do it, Zhu Youxiao smiled at Li Jong again.

"I heard that North Korea is small, but has many fishermen. Is this true?"

Li Jong was confused by the question and could only nod in response.

"Your Majesty is wise. This is a small country with many mountains and little arable land. To fill their stomachs, the people can only reach out to the sea."

Zhu Youxiao’s idea is very simple!

Since there is a shortage of food on land, let’s ask the ocean for it!

It is summer now, and the climate in the ocean is changeable, with typhoons and huge waves occurring frequently.

Instead of letting the people of the Ming Dynasty go out to sea and take risks, it would be better to hire Korean fishermen to work for them.

Don’t say that other people’s lives don’t matter. The people of North Korea are living a harder life than the people of the Ming Dynasty. Getting a job is as important to them as a life-saving straw!

When he expressed his idea, Li Jong agreed immediately, but then he made a bitter face and complained about being poor.

"Your Majesty clearly shows you!"

"Although the king is willing to let his people go out to sea to fish and support the Celestial Empire, the king only has a few boats that can go out to sea."

"and......."

"It's not right for Xiao Wang to order those fishermen around for no reason, right?"

Zhu Youxiao waved his hand generously: "Remember, things that can be solved with money are never a problem for me!"

"It's just a boat, I'll give it to you!"

"How about giving each fisherman thirty cents a day in addition to providing him with food?"

"Go back now and gather the fishermen as quickly as possible!"

"In two months at most, I will send a fleet to Pi Island. You and Lord Mao can discuss the rest of the matter!"

Li Jong was overjoyed!

Thirty cents per person as a wage is too generous!

For ordinary people, they can easily find ten cents, and they can give as much as they want!

Then I can get some kickbacks from the middle...

Ten thousand people can make a net profit of 200 taels of silver a day!

Two hundred a day, twenty thousand in ten days, two million in a hundred days...

hiss.........

He can no longer suppress the impulse in his heart!

With money, you can rebuild the palace, recruit troops again, and build your own big ship...

I heard that there is a whole mountain in Japan made of silver. By then...

Rob his ass ball!

Thinking about myself at the foot of the silver mountain, holding the princess in my arms and counting silver, that scene is so beautiful!

"Your Majesty, I understand!"

"Xiao Wang will go back and gather the fishermen!"

After saying that, he kowtowed three times in a row, stood up, turned around and left.

Perhaps because he has hope in his heart, his back looks very heroic!

Sun Chengzong, Zu Dashou and others looked at his figure, glanced at each other, all with astonishment on their faces.

Leaving now?

You sent out 20,000 troops, but they were beaten to pieces. Without even asking for any military expenditure, you’re just turning around and leaving?

really!

Compared with Mongolia, Korea is the real vassal state of the Ming Dynasty!

Unlike Lin Danhan, who was still trying to get benefits in a roundabout way before leaving. Ugh!

Zhu Youxiao watched this scene with a smile and felt very relieved.

This kid has some potential to be a contractor. I have to find a way to slowly guide him down this path in the future!

Recovering his composure, he sat back in his chair and looked at everyone present.

"There is nothing important happening in Liaodong that requires me to stay here any longer."

"The matter of Shanxi and Shaanxi cannot be delayed, so I plan to go over there to take a look."

"Before we leave, it's time to reward our meritorious service!"

After saying that, he waved to Yutong who was standing beside him.

Yutong hurriedly trotted out a small box from the Daijoden.

Inside, there were rolls of prepared imperial edicts.

"The emperor is destined to be carried by heaven, and the edict says:"

"......"

He read out the imperial edicts one by one, and everyone present had a share.

Wang Zhichen, formerly the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan and the governor of Liaodong, was promoted to the governor-general of Liaodong, combining military and political power in one person. He also appointed one of his sons as a captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and rewarded him with ten thousand taels of silver!

Zu Dashou, the general of Guangning, retains his official position and is given the title of General Zhaoyong. One of his sons is appointed as a captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and is awarded 10,000 taels of silver!

Mao Wenlong, the general who pacified Liao, kept his official position unchanged and was promoted to General Zhaolie. One of his sons was appointed as a captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and was rewarded with 10,000 taels of silver!

There was no fixed rank for generals in the Ming Dynasty. They were just given seals and sent to fight in wars. After the war, the seals would be returned.

In other words, although they held the official title of general, their actual rank was only the third rank.

But the two general titles, Zhaoyong and Zhaolie, are actually genuine second-grade military positions!

Zhang Weixian, the commander of the Fifth Army Camp, was promoted to the admiral of the Fifth Army Camp, and was given the title of General Zhaoyi. One of his sons was appointed as a captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and was rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver!

Lu Xiangsheng, the commander of the Shenji Camp, was promoted to the admiral of the Shenji Camp and conferred the title of General Zhaowei!

Qin Liangyu, deputy general of the left army of the Fifth Military Camp, was promoted to general, given the title of Lady Loyalty and Resolute, and one of her sons was appointed as a centurion of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and was rewarded with 5,000 taels of silver!

In addition to these people, those under the generals, such as Zhao Lushio, Ma Shilong and others, also received rewards, only Man Gui was an exception.

Unlike others who were only promoted one level, he was demoted from the former Ningyuan General to the Admiral of the Three Thousand Battalions, and was given the title of Second-Rank General Zhaoren and Prince Taibao!

The Three Thousand Camp was originally built by Zhu Di himself, with Mongolian cavalry as the backbone and some Han cavalry as the auxiliary.

Therefore, it is most appropriate to let Man Gui, a serious Mongolian man, serve as the admiral of the Three Thousand Battalions!

There were so many people that it took nearly half an hour just to read out the imperial edict!

And this is only limited to military generals above the rank of thousand households. As for those below that, each general will report their names after returning, and Sun Chengzong will make a unified decision.

After reading the imperial edict, the generals left one after another, but Youtong became a little melancholy.

He stood beside Zhu Youxiao, watching his own emperor reviewing memorials sent from the capital, his mouth opening and closing as if he wanted to say something but did not dare to utter a single sound.

Zhu Youxiao happened to look up and saw this scene and couldn't help laughing.

"What on earth do you want to say, you eunuch?"

Chapter 309: The Shy Oo Tong

Upon hearing this, Youtong's face turned red immediately. He raised his head shyly and said weakly.

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten to give me something as a reward?"

Zhu Youxiao was stunned. Has this guy learned to ask for credit?

But he soon remembered something and started teasing Yutong.

"What, can't bear it anymore?"

"Go, call Niu Zi over. I need to hear what she means first."

When Youtong went into the city to negotiate with Huang Taiji, he did promise him one thing, that is, if he could come back alive, he would marry Niu Zi to him.

However, there were so many things to do after the city was broken that I forgot about this for a while, which was really wrong.

Upon hearing this, Yutong was overjoyed. He turned around and ran all the way out of the imperial city.

As for whether he would tear his balls if he took too big a step, he had no such concerns at all...

After a stick of incense, Niu Zi was brought over.

When facing Zhu Youxiao, her expression was almost identical to Youtong's.

With her head lowered, one could hardly see the expression on her face, but a hint of blush could be seen on her exposed neck.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Youxiao immediately understood.

These two people......

It seems like they really love each other?

"Niu Zi, I want to ask you."

"Do you agree to marry Youtong?"

"My slave is willing!"

Niu Zi didn't dare to look up and look at him. She just nodded gently, making a mosquito-like sound.

This look is completely different from her previous performance!

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Youtong and did not end the questioning. Instead, he asked again with almost harsh words.

"I advise you to think it over carefully. Yutong is just a eunuch. Are you sure you want to be with him for the rest of your life?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the face of Yutong next to him turned extremely pale in an instant.

He looked at Niu Zi quietly, his eyes full of tension and panic.

Although what Zhu Youxiao said was true, at this time, it was undoubtedly another test for Niu Zi!

Niu Zi, who had been keeping his head down, raised his head when he heard these words.

He first looked at Youtong with affectionate eyes, and then nodded firmly to Zhu Youxiao.

"I am sure!"

"Whether he is disabled or not, I am willing to be with him!"
