Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 722
Li Dingguo was taken aback when he heard that the eight hundred li was expedited, thinking that when he led the troops to attack the three tribes in Mobei, something extraordinary happened.The biggest possibility is that Jianlu may have bypassed Shanhaiguan again and invaded the land of Gyeonggi.

He was in shock when he heard Governor Yansui not only named his name, but also named Li Guo, Li Laiheng, Tian Jianxiu, and Ma Shouying, saying that the capital was [-] miles away so that they could enter the capital quickly.

"The final general obeys the order, and leads his troops to the capital immediately!" Li Dingguo listened, and immediately embraced his orders, and at the same time asked doubts in his heart, "Lord Zhongcheng, is there a change in the capital?"

Li Guo, Li Laiheng and the others were also shocked, but they were not too worried. If there is a crisis, it means that there is a battle.

But who knows, the governor of Yansui shook his head, and he said in a bit of bewilderment: "There is nothing special about the capital, and the [-]-mile rush is just to call a few of you, and He Renlong will go to the capital alone. Lead the troops."

Upon hearing this, a few people couldn't figure it out.What is the matter with the emperor, and he sent them to Beijing with eight hundred miles in a hurry, and he still did not bring troops to Beijing, what was he going to do?
In fact, the governor of Yansui didn't know too much, but after guessing, he guessed: "It should be because you have made a lot of contributions this time, so you should go to Beijing to be sealed!"

The general emperor's reward is indeed to go to Beijing to thank him.But, as for expediting with [-] miles?

Unable to figure it out, he added: "Maybe I thought about doing this a year ago!"

This at least explained why it took eight hundred miles to expedite it!

But, as for?There is still more than a month before the Chinese New Year. Do we need to rush it by [-] miles?

After barely comprehending, Li Dingguo and others did not dare to be negligent, and immediately took their personal guards without rest, and hurried to the capital.

....................................

In the frontier where Yunnan and Dongwu meet, the governor of Yunnan, Yang Weizhi, also summoned Qian Guogong Mu Tianbo and Shi Zhubo Ma Xianglin, and said to them: "The capital is eight hundred miles away, and the two of you should leave for Beijing immediately."

When Mu Tianbo and Ma Xianglin heard this, they were shocked and said, "Jianlu invaded the capital again?"

Even though they asked like this, they still had doubts.

The entire territory of Yunnan has been pacified, and the northern soldiers have been transferred back. With the current strength of the imperial court, it is definitely far from what it was a few years ago.With such strength, can Jianlu invade the Gyeonggi again?
To be honest, they were a bit confused.

Yang Weizhi shook his head when he heard this, and said in bewilderment: "Just let the two of you go to Beijing, you don't need to bring troops to Beijing, there shouldn't be any war!"

After a pause, he guessed suspiciously: "Maybe you are asked to go to the capital to celebrate the New Year?"

However, if this is the case, it is a bit too ridiculous. As for the need to rush for eight hundred miles?

After hearing this, Mu Tianbo and Ma Xianglin couldn't figure it out, so they had no choice but to rush to the capital with the fastest speed.

........................

On Pidao's side, the capital also received an order from the signal tower to let Zheng Zhilong and Wu Sangui enter the capital immediately.

The two of them didn't know about the [-]-mile rush. After all, using the signal tower was faster than using the [-]-mile rush.After receiving the news, Zheng Zhilong happened to be leaving his post to go to Beijing, and even Wu Sangui was going to Beijing together, so the two just happened to go together.

Similar to them, at Shanhaiguan, Du Yinxi, Zhou Yuji, Liu Wenxiu and others also received orders to enter Beijing.

In addition, in Sichuan, Governor Ma Shiying and Huang Degong also received an urgent request of eight hundred miles, asking them to enter Beijing immediately.

In the great Ming Dynasty, many people received an urgent request of eight hundred miles, asking them to rush to the capital immediately.

For this, everyone is guessing what happened in the capital, and what is the reason behind the [-]-mile rush?
"You said, is the emperor going to make a hero at the end of the year?"

"Should the meritorious officials be summoned urgently by eight hundred miles?"

"Then shouldn't it be to restore Liaodong and destroy North Korea?"

"This is possible, but why not let the troops be led? Shouldn't they gather all the troops in the capital?"

"It's true, if you should bring troops to Beijing, then it's possible. But, since that's not the case, why use [-] miles to summon them urgently? It can't be for the purpose of going to Beijing for the New Year, right?"

"How is that possible? Babaili hurriedly summoned him to go to Beijing for the New Year. Thanks to you, you can figure out such an outrageous thing!"

"..."

No one can guess why the emperor spent [-] miles to urgently summon the officials and generals from all over the country. Even the cabinet and the Sixth Ministry can't guess.I just know that Emperor Chongzhen attached great importance to it and emphasized that he must use [-] li to expedite the summons.

In addition, what they still can't understand is that there are people of various identities among the recipients of the eight-hundred-mile urgent edict.

There are hereditary princes, such as Mu Tianbo, and the original generals of the Yongwei Camp, such as Huang Degong, Zhou Yuji, Sun Yingyuan, and others who were recruited in the early years, and later in Yunnan. He Renlong and other generals waiting to be seen; even Zhang Huangyan, Zhang Tongchang, etc. whom they had never heard of, were treated equally.

Really, it can be said that no one can figure out what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of Emperor Chongzhen!
However, there are also very few people around the emperor who guessed and guessed, and finally guessed that this kind of inexplicable thing may have something to do with Emperor Taizu!There are only things in the fairy world, which cannot be deduced with common sense!

As the days passed, the officials, generals, or just scholars who had been urgently summoned from eight hundred miles from all over the country also rushed to the capital one after another.

When it comes to urgent summoning at eight hundred miles, many people have actually experienced it.Anyone who was urgently summoned by Emperor Chongzhen eight hundred miles would generally be reused.

Therefore, the atmosphere in the capital is basically harmonious or celebratory.Especially because of the approaching Chinese New Year, this festive atmosphere is even more intense.

Although it has started to snow in the capital today, the capital is still very prosperous.

Because Wu Sangui and Zheng Zhilong rushed back from Pidao, they couldn't catch up with those who hurried to the capital by land. When they arrived in the capital, there was only half a month left before the Chinese New Year.

For Zheng Zhilong, it is relatively better. He not only stayed in Phi Island, but also returned to Dengzhou, and heard more news.

As for Wu Sangui, since he was sent to Phi Island to rebuild Dongjiang Town, he has stayed there, and even later, he was still fighting guerrillas in North Korea.What I see on weekdays is the defeat of North Korea.

North Korea, which was not prosperous in the first place, after many wars, many towns are empty, with ruined walls and ruins, and bones of the roadside are common sights.

However, the moment he landed in Tianjin Port, he couldn't recognize him anymore. It turned out to be Tianjin Wei!
It was several times larger than the original building complex, and the port was full of large and small cargo ships. The bustling scene made him think he was dreaming.

Then I took the train all the way to the capital. Although it had started to snow, the snow covered the field and covered up many things.

However, through the car window, you can see the villages and towns in the distance, the smoke from the kitchen, and the children playing snowball fights and making snowmen. This kind of scene makes Wu Sangui a little dazed.

In his mind, everything in front of him really formed a stark contrast with his environment in the past few years.

So much so that Wu Sangui arrived in the capital without knowing when.

The railway station of the capital was built outside the original city wall.However, many buildings have been expanded outside the capital today.Wu Sangui didn't recover until he got off the train: This is the capital?

Originally, Zheng Zhilong was still talking to Wu Sangui, and between the words, he was a little joking that Wu Sangui didn't even know his family anymore.In the end, when he arrived in the capital, he was also dumbfounded.

In just a few short years, the capital has changed so much that even he was shocked.

The two of them now live in the capital.But you have to report to the Ministry of War first, and then you go home.

On Wu Sangui's side, his old father explained to him, while on Zheng Zhilong's side, he saw Tian Chuansong and his second son.

At this time, his second son was already dressed in Ming Dynasty except for his short hair.And the emperor's decree, went to work in the prince's mansion, it can be regarded as one of the companions.

This is not only the emperor's emphasis on the Zheng family, but also allows the prince Zhu Cihong to gain more insight and understand the situation of the Wa country.

It's just a pity that because Zheng Sen was the supervisor of the Japanese Expeditionary Army, he couldn't come back this time and was stationed on Tsushima Island.

Whether it is Zheng Zhilong or Wu Sangui, they have also asked about the situation of the capital. The most surprising thing is that the current emperor has summoned many people in a hurry, but they don't know what it is.

Of course, on the capital's side, no one knows.

In the next few days, as the New Year drew closer, Emperor Chongzhen summoned a group of ministers and began to reward meritorious deeds.

Zheng Zhilong's knighthood and transfer orders were directly implemented when he entered Beijing.From then on, at least on the Zheng family's side, it can be regarded as one school and two nobles.In addition, his eldest son is the commander of Jin Yiwei, and he is also the supervisor of the Japanese Expeditionary Army, and his second son is in the Prince's Mansion. It can be said that the Zheng family is a dignitary in the Chongzhen Dynasty.

Wu Sangui was not knighted, but only conferred. When he reached the top of the generals, he was only one step away from being knighted.His official position has not changed, he is still the general of Dongjiang Town, and he has to go back after a year.

For him, he already understood that the emperor no longer seemed to have any objections to him, as long as he made contributions in the next war against Jianlu and Japan, he should be able to be knighted, which is a good thing!
Also, the rewards for the Battle of Mobei were also promulgated as Li Dingguoding and others rushed to the capital.

Li Dingguo was granted the title of Marquis of Ningyuan, Gao Yigong, Li Guo, Tian Jianxiu, and Ma Shouying were all promoted to the commander-in-chief, and Li Laiheng was appointed as the deputy general.
