Chongzhen chat group

Chapter 1306 Taking the Lead
When Emperor Chongzhen went online, he saw Li Dingguo's message and Yang Sichang's flattery immediately, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.Immediately, he had the feeling of being a famous general.

Li Dingguo is worthy of being Li Dingguo. He actually completed a classic battle at a young age, and he already has the shadow of the Hushi General of the Han Dynasty!Not bad!The training I gave him before was worth it!

Emperor Chongzhen was very happy, and when he learned that Yang Sichang had sent Mangui to meet him, he was also very satisfied with Yang Sichang's arrangement, and replied with praise. Then, he chatted with Li Dingguo in private, asked about the specific situation of the battle, and went there again, feeling safe Yes, I'm relieved now.

After rejoicing, and after thinking for a while, Emperor Chongzhen made a decision. He immediately set up a chat group temporarily, and pulled all the officials in the chat group, regardless of their positions, into a temporary group, and then put Li Dingguo and his colleagues in the chat group. The details of the battle and the dialogue on the results were all posted in the group, and the photos taken by Li Dingguo were also forwarded.

As a result, all the civil servants and generals in the group were shocked.

The reason why Huo Qubing became a legend and the pride of the Central Plains Dynasty was because almost no one could replicate his achievements.But now, in the Ming Dynasty where I lived, there was also a 17-year-old boy who led [-] horses and wiped out tens of thousands of enemies in the Far West, while his own losses were almost insignificant.In this battle, anyone who knew about Huo Qubing would have connected the two of them.

It is true that Li Dingguo's battle, because of the previous influence, already has a certain foundation for victory.For example, the Khalkha tribe’s frightened mentality, but if it were someone else, they might not have the courage to seize such an opportunity, make full use of it, and finally win more with less and achieve a classic.

Shocked, the people in the group congratulated Emperor Chongzhen one after another. Daming also had a general of hussars!

Of course, many people knew about the extraordinary training of Emperor Chongzhen to Li Dingguo in the past. Therefore, they also flattered the emperor one after another.
Emperor Chongzhen was very happy to hear it, and this was indeed his favorite work.Even in future history books, when mentioning Li Dingguo's battle, it is inevitable to mention a few words about him, Emperor Chongzhen.

If Huo Qubing is a natural general, then Li Dingguo was cultivated by Emperor Chongzhen. At least one point, in the cultivation of famous generals, Emperor Chongzhen definitely contributed more than Emperor Wu of Han!

Emperor Chongzhen decided that for this war and Li Dingguo's deeds, we must vigorously publicize it.Although there is no need for a hero to tour the country to report like later generations, there are factory guard systems and station systems, and there are already enough transmission channels.

For Li Dingguo's contribution, he must be rewarded heavily!

But when talking about this, some people objected, saying that Li Dingguo is only 17 years old after all, if the reward is too heavy, it may backfire and be detrimental to Li Dingguo's growth.

However, Emperor Chongzhen did not listen.He paid more attention to Li Dingguo than any other official, so he knew Li Dingguo better than anyone else.That is a young and mature guy, it may be because of his youth experience, he has tasted more life than ordinary teenagers, so he is much more mature.Based on Emperor Chongzhen's understanding of Li Dingguo, he will certainly not be complacent because of this!

Moreover, Emperor Chongzhen also had another intention to reward Li Dingguo heavily.It is to set Li Dingguo as an example in the army.

Li Dingguo can be regarded as the representative of the combination of practice and theory, that is, the combination of war training and military training.He can achieve such achievements at such a young age, which shows that this path is correct.It will inevitably attract more military elites who are eager to enter the Armed Forces Hall to study.Rewarding Li Dingguo heavily will make the Ming soldiers who are eager to worship generals and marquises even more eager for military exploits.

After Mangui received Li Dingguo, further confirmed his achievements, and reported the situation to the imperial court, Emperor Chongzhen decreed that Li Dingguo was named Ming Weibo and the deputy commander-in-chief of the province because of his achievements.In other words, Li Dingguo was an earl at a young age, and his position in the army was raised from a general banner to a deputy commander who could be called a "marshal".

This reward immediately shocked everyone, especially the lieutenant soldiers.It can be said that while they were shocked, they were more envious.

Li Dingguo is only 17 years old, and he was named a marquis and a general because of his military achievements. Looking at himself, how old is he, and he has not achieved much.When will it be possible to seal the wife and shade the son, honor the ancestors and so on?
Li Dingguo's deeds made many people ashamed, and then they felt unwilling to do so, and wanted to make military achievements and make achievements.All of a sudden, the number of soldiers in the army eager to fight and make military exploits surged again.

In the Japanese garrison, many soldiers have asked for battle, asking to go east to the Pacific Ocean, go to the Americas and the Western Yi to fight, open up the territory for the Ming Dynasty, and also have a chance to make meritorious service for themselves.

In Tian Province, the morale of the soldiers left behind was high, and they called for a fight one after another. They wanted to crusade against Tsarist Russia as soon as possible, and they also had a chance to make meritorious service.

The soldiers of the Ming army who were engaged in the Goa war felt as if they had been injected with chicken blood. Their subjective initiative was greatly improved, and the progress of the war was greatly promoted.

Even Zhang Xianzhong, who had been serving as a guerrilla in Jindi, felt ashamed that he couldn't sit still.He didn't expect that after only a few years, his adopted son would compare him in every aspect.

"The green is better than the blue because of the blue!" Zhang Xianzhong made a self-deprecating comment, and his mind became more active.

He was a little embarrassed to be transferred to the Western Regions to participate in the war against Tsarist Russia.It can be expected that since Li Dingguo has been promoted to be the deputy general of the Tian Province, he will definitely become the main commander in the war against Tsarist Russia just like Man Gui.At that time, all the troops fighting against Tsarist Russia will basically be under the command of Li Dingguo or Man Gui.He, Zhang Xianzhong, felt that he couldn't afford to lose this face.

So, he set his mind to that place far away in America.It is easy to make military exploits like this to open up the territory for Ming Dynasty!
At this time, the Chinese did not have any inferiority complex towards Xiyi, unlike during the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and even less like during the Republic of China.It's not just Xiyi, Daming can beat them both parents can't recognize them!

In addition to the eagerness of the military like Zhang Xianzhong to make military achievements, Li Dingguo's legendary battle has also been widely spread among the people.In this folk communication, it is natural to carry out certain artistic processing.For example, the opponent will be exaggerated a little, so that Li Dingguo can appear more powerful.The label of a great hussar general of the Ming Dynasty was printed on Li Dingguo's body, and it was recited all over the place.

According to the report by Wu Ergou, the leader of the underground forces, many people in the Jianghu under him are thinking of joining the army, and like Li Dingguo, they are trying to win the credit for their wives and sons.

In this way, unknowingly, Da Ming's martial ethos is quietly affecting Da Ming.And this is what Emperor Chongzhen wanted to see.

However, after Li Dingguo's deeds spread, some people felt a little sour about it.For example, at this time, Concubine Tian Gui pestered Emperor Chongzhen and said, "Your Majesty, what should I do with my son in the future?"

Emperor Chongzhen was stunned for a moment, and didn't understand the nonsense for a while, so he asked: "What should I do? My son, how can I treat you badly?"

Concubine Tian Gui gave birth to a son for Emperor Chongzhen, who was almost two years old.He was also inoculated with vaccinia and is in good health.

After hearing this, Concubine Tian Gui said coquettishly: "Now the places around Daming have been divided. Even Nanyang has been divided into feudal princes. In the future, our son, does His Majesty want him to go to the cold Tsarist Russia? Is it?"

According to the current national policy of the imperial court, most of the territories laid down are used to subdivide vassal kings.

Before Emperor Chongzhen had time to reply, Concubine Tian Gui continued: "Also, if your majesty can train a great general of hussars, if our son wants to go out and become a vassal in the future, shouldn't we also train him so that he can live in the vassal state? better?"

"Where are you and where are you?" Emperor Chongzhen couldn't laugh or cry when he heard that, a kid who was only two years old was worrying so much!

When Concubine Tian Gui heard this, she became anxious, and quickly reminded: "Your Majesty, when our son grows up, there will still be places in this world where we can divide up!"

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he couldn't help but shook his head and said, "Don't worry about it, I still have a place for my sons, it's definitely not a place of extreme cold! Moreover, there will be no strong enemies around!"

Concubine Tian Gui was overjoyed when she heard this, and asked tentatively, "Your Majesty, could it be some kind of America?"

The Americas are also going to be subdivided into vassal kings, but Emperor Chongzhen didn't think here, and said with a smile: "No, that place has not been discovered by the world, and the area is as big as our previous Ming Dynasty. There is no strong enemy, as long as there is a strong navy, it will be very safe!"

"Your Majesty, where is this?" Concubine Tian Gui couldn't help asking happily when she heard this.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't tell her, and said to her: "You don't have to worry about that, what you should worry about is, just serve me well!"

Concubine Tian Gui heard the determination in his words and knew that she could not speak any more, so she obediently began to serve the emperor again.

Early the next morning, Emperor Chongzhen took all the civil and military officials to Tongzhou refreshed.This kind of thing was impossible before.But now, not only has it become normal for the emperor to go out of the palace, but even civil and military officials can leave the capital.Of course, among the yamen, those officials who actually do things are still working in the yamen.

A crowd of people waiting, in fact, is just a matter of a train, sitting in the train and chatting, and unknowingly, they arrived in Tongzhou very quickly.This traffic is much better than before.

"Do the math, it's been a few years since the emperor ordered to build this steamship, and now there is finally a real result!"

"I didn't expect it. Our Ming Dynasty only started to build so many sailing boats a few years ago, and now we are going to weed them out again!"

"That's not the case. Those sailing ships are more suitable for sailing on the ocean. Today's steam iron-clad ship is still too small to be suitable for sailing on the ocean."

"That's right, but I heard that the emperor plans to build a large-scale steam iron-clad ship at the Nanjing Shipyard after today's imperial tour, and that's what will eliminate sailing ships."

"..."

This is basically a discussion among the civil servants. In addition, the discussion among the generals in the carriage is much more heated.

"Ironclad warships, you don't need to rely on wind power. Once this becomes a scale, who will still be my opponent in the sea?"

"Don't talk about iron-clad warships, as of now, our Da Ming's sailed warships can drown any opponent!"

"Looking at the current situation, who would have imagined that the newly established Ming Navy seems to have a latecomer, surpassing our army. When will our army have such a good means of transportation, oh, no, fast warships?"

"That's not necessarily the case. Have you heard that the emperor's apprentice in Nanjing, the real disciple of the Son of Heaven, is building an airship. It is said that he has a plan, and he may really be able to do it when the time comes. At that time, our army will also have a big kill Just think about it, when our Da Ming army and the enemy are confronting each other, our Da Ming army suddenly flies from the sky, haha, it can scare the opponent to death!"

"Don't be too happy too early. It is said that after those airships are built, the Ming Air Force will be established, which is the air force, not the army."

"What, no way, is it possible that the three armed forces in the future will refer to the three armies of the sea, land and air?"

"..."

While the civil and military officials were chatting, the train whistle blew, steam sprayed, and thick fog came out, and it arrived at Tongzhou Railway Station.

Emperor Chongzhen soon arrived at Tongzhou Shipyard with all the civil and military officials.Today, they are no longer surprised by the steam ironclad ship.After all, after so many years of experimentation, they have already accepted it.

This time, the steam ironclad ship was truly successfully inspected. Emperor Chongzhen felt that it was commemorative, so he brought all the civil and military officials to witness this historical moment.

On the other side of the Tongzhou River, there were also countless people watching the excitement.There are relatively few local people, and most of them are people who came from the capital in advance, or from farther places. They are still quite strange about steam iron-clad ships.However, now that scientific and technological knowledge is popularized, no one would ask such naive questions as "how can iron float on water"!

Everything that followed was a matter of course. The steam iron-clad ship performed back and forth on the Tongzhou River, proving that its performance was reliable enough.Emperor Chongzhen was not surprised by this, knowing that this kind of steamboat should start to be popularized on the great rivers of the Ming Dynasty in the future.The next step is to build a larger steam iron-clad ship. This, the Tongzhou River is too small, and there is no condition. He plans to let Nanjing Shipyard and Tianjin Shipyard start to develop large-scale steam ships that can be used at sea. Ironclad battleship.

From now on, wherever the ocean reaches, there must be the flag of Ming Dynasty flying!
