Wanli 1592

Chapter 716 Is That Human?

Such an interesting thing as the prisoner offering ceremony is not only infinitely attractive to generals, but also very attractive to ordinary soldiers.

Participating in the prisoner offering ceremony and going to the capital means not only having the opportunity to observe the honor of the emperor up close, but also to experience the customs and customs of the capital up close, and to see the young ladies with thin skin and tender flesh that are not usually seen.

In addition, the most important thing is that you can also get extra good treatment, you can eat several extra meals of meat, drink several meals of broth, and eat several meals of dry rice!There might be an extra bounty.

How good is this for the sergeants who are suffering all year round?

They knew very well in their hearts that after this battle was over, they would be separated from Xiao Ruxun. Xiao Ruxun would not be able to command them all the time. Pancakes with oil, eating meat, drinking broth, this kind of dreamlike life, in fact, it is really time to end.

It will be the same in the future, one meal will be dry and two meals will be thin, or one meal will be dry and one meal will be thin, or even two meals will be thin. There is no meat, no oil, and even pickled vegetables may not be enough.

I can't taste the oily taste, I can't taste the meaty taste, and the salty taste may not be enough. The feeling of dryness in the mouth seems to be coming back again. Now this kind of feeling of warming the whole body after eating meatloaf and drinking broth is endless. The days of strength are over.

You have to suffer from the cold in winter and the heat in summer, you can’t live comfortably all year round, and you’ll be bullied by the head of the guard at every turn, and you’ll be doing handymen, and it’s okay to be a private soldier, but you just won’t be hungry So simple.

The days of receiving such care under Xiao Ruxun's hands are really...maybe... gone forever, right?

With such thoughts in mind, an indescribable atmosphere slowly spread in the army. Apart from the joy of victory, this atmosphere is also quite strong.

The feeling of nostalgia for a much-loved general, that deep sense of belonging.

I don't know if we can fight side by side again in the future.

Therefore, the Triumph Prisoner Presentation Ceremony may be the last time to cooperate with each other, and there are really many people who want to go.

Needless to say, meritorious generals, naturally everyone can get benefits and everyone can go, but if the grassroots officers and ordinary soldiers below want to go, they will have to fight for it. The number of places is limited. There are exceptions.

What's more depressing is that Xiao Ruxun's soldiers and horses and Li Rusong's soldiers and horses were all transferred from other places, and they passed through the capital on their return journey. Speaking of other things, didn't the Liaodong Army and Zhennan Army play a big role in the war?

Seats are getting tighter.

Xiao Ruxun made some calculations, there are still more than [-] people on his side that can be brought back, and more than [-] people from Li Rusong's side can be brought back. These people can't all be counted in the triumphant team, otherwise there will be too many people Yes, not suitable.

To be honest, there were not that many soldiers who made enough credit to participate in the triumphant sacrifice ceremony.

There are more than 500 people who meet the standards on my side, and if they can't all be represented, then 500 people can be represented. There are barely 2000 people in the sequence of the Liaodong Army.

In this way, there are 500 people. In addition to the 500, [-] people, there are also meritorious soldiers from the army in Jizhen, Taiyuan, Yulin and other places. After a rough screening, there are about [-] people who meet the standards, and these people cannot all be taken away. Otherwise, whether the fragile treasury of the imperial court can support it is still a very serious problem.

Bringing too much back will give people a feeling of not knowing the importance. Although Xiao Ruxun is not afraid of criticism from civil officials, he still has to abide by the way of being a minister and follow the rules in everything.

Then screen, screen, and screen again, and select about 5000 people and take them back to participate in the prisoner offering ceremony.

Xiao Ruxun gave a rough number here, and the army below began to fight openly and secretly, all kinds of tricks came out, you fought with no mercy, as fierce as Li Rusong, and suddenly realized that no matter how fierce he was, under such circumstances , Those generals actually gritted their teeth and refused to retreat.

He couldn't help being very depressed.

The army here is happily preparing to participate in the triumphant captive offering ceremony, while waiting for the imperial court's edict, but after the imperial court received the news of the army's complete victory, it was already in chaos.

At the beginning, it was indeed a joy, because this was an extremely brilliant victory against the North Koreans that had not been seen in decades.

From the very beginning of this battle, Datong retreated all the way in Shanxi, the Nine Frontier Defense Line broke a big hole, the Central Plains shook, the capital shook, and now [-] cavalry marched to Guihua City in the north, smashing Guihua City and setting fire to the northern captives. Proclaim the mighty victory of the Celestial Empire...

It's only a few months.

The Ming Dynasty spent the 26th year of the Wanli Year of Wanli in the panic of hundreds of thousands of northern captives going south to Shanxi. However, after the beginning of the new year, after the famous general Xiao Ruxun led his army back to the north, good news came one after another.

Recovering Shanxi, restoring Datong, killing Hukou to fight back, and the Northern Expedition to Guihua City, the Ming army fought an extremely beautiful turnaround.

The first 30 northern captives who went south have already become heads and bones. The more than 50 Tumed tribes who moved south and tried to occupy the magpie's nest were also killed by the Ming army, and [-] northern captives were killed in Hukou. In all odds, the number of Beilu entrenched in Guihua City has been killed...

How many beheads did the Ming army behead in this battle?
The Ministry of War sent someone to do a little statistics. Since Xiao Ruxun dispatched troops, he has never lost a battle, and has always won battles. Every time he beheads a lot of heads, the number of heads that can be counted as beheading credit is probably no less than ten. Ten thousand.

As for the other heads that were chopped off by the Ming army to make Jingguan more than those that were beheaded, no less than 20, the head alone was chopped off 30, as for the dead...

The hands of those officials were shaking as they counted the numbers.

They didn't dare to imagine such a number, and they didn't dare to imagine that so many heads were chopped off by those Qiu Ba who they despised and laughed at. After so many years, every time they won, there were dozens of dozens of heads. One, occasionally breaking a hundred dares to be called a big victory, and now he chopped off a hundred thousand heads in one breath...

Is this going back to the Qin, Han and Tang Dynasties?Back to the time when the Great Ming Dynasty was just established, when Taizu Chengzu made more than a dozen northern expeditions to the grasslands, and the northern captives were only called mothers?
How did those Qiuba become so vigorous?After this battle, how could the Beilu be beaten to this extent?

For some reason, a feeling of awe, almost to the point of fear, suddenly rose in their hearts.

That one is like a comet... No!What method did the generals like demon gods use to bring those military generals on the Nine Sides who focused on self-protection and seldom went out to fight outside the Great Wall to achieve this great cause?
Is that human?
