There was no doubt that an army arrived early, and the chief assistant led the civil and military officials to greet him. This army has the smallest number of people, with only more than 300 people arriving in the capital, but it has the most to talk about and is the most admirable.

The other one is the Guan Ning Army, which has always been known as the elite frontier army of the Ming Dynasty. Regarding this army, the people in the capital have both good and bad things to say. If he hadn't participated in the Battle of Changli, he would have been scolded to death.

The last one is the King Qin Army led by Prime Minister Ma Shilong. Although there seems to be no record in this battle, many people are saying that this King Qin Army has strong soldiers and horses. Even if it is compared to Guan Ning's army, it does not need to make any concessions. He said that as long as this army is used well, Ming Dynasty will not suffer such pain.

As evening approached, several knights in royal robes suddenly broke into the yamen of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division. After a while, they saw the men and horses of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division begin to gather, and then divided into twos and threes and immediately dispersed into the capital city.

Knocking on the door sounded from time to time throughout the capital. After the owner of the room was knocked out, he immediately informed: "Tomorrow morning around three quarters past midnight, go to the Desheng Gate of the capital to pick you up."

"Who to pick up?"

"Your aunt and two grandsons were escorted over from Yongping by Guan Ningjun!"

As soon as they learned about this situation, the family immediately became excited after receiving the news. The government came to inform, and there is a specific time for confirmation, so this cannot be false.

I originally thought that the person was probably dead, but unexpectedly, he was still alive, and Guan Ningjun escorted him over. This surprise was so sudden! Of course, there are also some families who are secretly worried. There are a few more mouths in the house who can only eat but cannot work, and the burden is even heavier.

About one-tenth of the addresses were wrong. People did not admit that they had any relatives in Yongping. There were no aunts or aunts at all.

Therefore, these situations were immediately summarized in the hands of the Jin Yiwei who were in charge of the Five Cities Military and Horses Yamen, and recorded one by one.

By the early morning of the next day, those who got the news often mobilized the whole family, including other unrelated people who had heard the news and left. Suddenly, the number of people was as large as when Lu Xiangsheng led the army to arrive.

The number of people welcoming them could reflect which King Qin army was more powerful. Naturally, there were more expectations for this time of merit-based rewards. The soldiers of King Qin's army outside the city were watching all this silently in their respective military camps. Naturally, they had various thoughts in their hearts, guessing that the King of Qin's army was coming.

Amid everyone's expectations, a group of cavalrymen opened the way in the distance, followed by countless infantry troops. The dust they brought covered the sky and the sun. The sheer number of people and the momentum were quite spectacular.

The crowd waiting on the capital side suddenly became commotion. If it weren't for the men and horses from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division lining up and standing guard in front, and the soldiers of the capital camp standing on top of the city, it would be difficult to calm them down again.

When you get closer, you can see the flags one after another, which are actually the flags of the generals from various places. Surrounded by these flags of the general soldiers, there is also a more prominent flag with the word "horse" written on it: "The imperial sword is given to Shang Fang, the prime minister is diligent and the king is in charge of the army."

The cavalrymen who separated from this team galloped close to the capital city to report, which also showed that this King Qin's army was under Ma Shilong, who commanded King Qin's army in the northwest. They arrived one step earlier than Guan Ning's army.

Under the banner, seeing so many people in the capital welcoming him, Ma Shilong maintained his grace and smiled. The generals around him all smiled like flowers, and their horse faces turned into monkey faces. So many people welcomed them, which shows that the people's support is available. When the time comes for the court to reward merits and deeds, it will have to take into account the public opinion, right?

They knew that this was probably all due to Ma Shilong. If it weren't for his personal connections, there would certainly not be so many people in the capital coming to build momentum. If it hadn't been for those grains, they wouldn't have had so many subordinates who were so energetic and able to hold up the scene.

With this idea, thinking that Ma Shilong's methods are as good as the sky, they all started to flatter him, and even more flattered Ma Shilong.

It is true that the soldiers in this army all look good, at least they look like they are walking and they look like they are riding a horse. And the number of people was so large that it even caught up with the number of troops already stationed outside the city.

However, what they didn't expect was that when they were approaching the capital city, a group of Jinyi captains, led by a Qianhu, met them and went to Prime Minister Ma Shilong to send a message: "Quickly go to the east to camp and wait for the imperial court's decree." !”

"..." At this moment, everyone including Ma Shilong was confused. Aren't the people in the capital welcoming them? What do you, Jinyiwei, mean? Wouldn't it be better to go east to camp, which is very close to the city gate?

Ma Shilong came back to his senses and couldn't help but feel a little angry. Just when he was about to speak, he saw Qianhu, the Jin Yiwei, showing a gold medal given by the emperor, which made him speechless.

Moreover, the Jin Yiwei Qianhu said again with a cold face: "Hurry up, don't block the official road, Guan Ning's army is coming soon! The people of the capital, officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the Ministry of War are all waiting!"

"..." Ma Shilong and others were stunned, feeling like they had been hurt a thousand times. After working on it for a long time, it turned out that such a huge formation was not here to welcome me!

Especially when they heard that they were asked to give way to Guan Ningjun, none of them were convinced. After they learned about the specific circumstances of the Battle of Changli, they in the army could see through it at a glance that Guan Ning's army at that time just went to pick a ripe peach. At that time, no matter which army suddenly appeared, that is, if they were present, they would still be able to achieve the victory of Changli.

Some of them were not very good-tempered. When they were about to argue, they suddenly found another army coming from the northeast. Judging from the flags, it was the target of their anger.

As soon as the Jin Yiwei Qianhu saw him, he immediately sternly urged him to get out of the way.

Fortunately, Ma Shilong knew that Jinyiwei Qianhu was just passing orders. Arguing with him would not yield any results, and it would be bad if it caused a big fuss. This matter can only be effective if it is argued before the emperor. Therefore, he stopped his men and immediately gave orders to get out of the way.

In this way, their alliance of King Qin and the King's Army came in high spirits, but in the end they stepped aside in despair, watching their biggest competitor slowly approaching.

When they got closer, they discovered why there were so many carriages in Guan Ning's army. What were they doing? Military family members? impossible!

Not many people pay attention to the soldiers and equipment of Guan Ning's army. Almost everyone focused their attention on the many carriages in Guan Ning's army, wondering who the people inside were?

The waiting crowd outside the capital city became commotion again, most of them wanted to see their relatives. As a result, the men and horses of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division felt like they were facing a powerful enemy, and they tried their best to maintain order.

When the carriage stopped, everyone inside came out, and their relatives outside the city reunited and burst into tears, Ma Shilong, who was watching from a distance, immediately thought of what was going on, and his heart suddenly "thumped."

Thanks Li Lizhi for the reward!
