The evil forces roaming the heavens

Chapter 352: Present the prisoners to heaven!

The capital city in summer is like a fire cage.

But even so, people's enthusiasm is very high.

Forbidden City, Xiyuan,

After learning about the victory in Datong, Jiajing could not help but ask, "Is this true?"

"Your Majesty, hurry up! Great victory! Commander Zhang Cheng and deputy commander Wang Fang led the Datong defenders in a night attack, defeating 60,000 Mongols in one fell swoop, capturing 20,000, killing 10,000, and even bringing back Altan Khan's head!"

Looking at Jiajing in front of him, Jia Jingzhong's face was full of excitement.
Because it has been a long time since the Ming Dynasty had such a good news.

"Good, good, good!"

Patting his thigh, Jiajing could not help but stand up, walking back and forth in his Taoist robe and saying, "This battle is really exciting!"

Hearing Jiajing's words, Jia Jingzhong hurriedly said, "I will present the chieftain tomorrow. Your Majesty, please see?"

"I remember Qiu Luan was recommended by Yan Shifan, right? If so, let the Minister of Rites Zhang Juzheng go!"

At this point, Jiajing's eyes sparkled and he said, "What a waste! As a general, he was stabbed to death!"

Thinking of this, Jiajing couldn't help but feel disgusted.
Because if Qiu Luan had not been stabbed, how could such a desperate situation have occurred?
He could imagine how Zhang Cheng attacked with a desperate determination.
Because the general of a place was stabbed to death, basically everyone from top to bottom will be implicated!

"Oh, by the way, issue an order to transfer Zhang Cheng, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard, to be the commander-in-chief of the two provincial navies, and to confer him the title of assistant minister of the Ministry of War!"

Looking at Jia Jingzhong below, Jiajing's eyes flickered with a gleam.
"Ah? Your Majesty, Zhang Xinzhi is only in his twenties now!"

Looking at Jiajing in surprise, Jia Jingzhong was also stunned.

"It doesn't matter if he's young. Since he can fight, I'll leave the sea patrol to him!"

Looking at Jia Jingzhong, Jiajing was also angry about the Japanese pirates in Jiangnan.

Because in the past few months, every once in a while, there are always Japanese pirates coming ashore.
Since Zhang Cheng was so good at fighting, Jiajing might as well let him handle the trouble in the south.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"

With his hands clasped, Jia Jingzhong could not help but exclaim in amazement.
Because last time, when he took Zhang Cheng into Xiyuan, he told him that he had walked this road for thirty years.
But what was the result? In just two years, he went from being outside the school to becoming a successful person!

Jia Jingzhong: Damn, you are so good at fighting, why don’t you join the army?

Zhang Cheng: Not selected!

The next day, in Beijing,
The flag of the Ming Dynasty is flying.

Facing the shouts of thousands of people, a steady stream of soldiers appeared.

Leading the group were seven hundred Jinyiwei, and behind them were a large number of chained captives.
Looking at this scene, the people of the Ming Dynasty shouted: "Long live the Ming Dynasty, long live the Ming Dynasty!"

"Smash them to death!"

Holding fruits and vegetables in their hands, the people were instantly ignited with excitement.

As the captives were beaten dizzy, the crowd began to shout "Long live the emperor".

Looking at the faces appearing in the crowd, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but smile.
Because no matter what, Jinyiwei's propaganda work is really good.
In front of the Forbidden City, Zhang Cheng dismounted and walked forward with his hands clasped.
Looking at Zhang Cheng, Zhang Juzheng never expected that within less than a month of their separation, the other party had already stepped onto the ladder of success and soared to the top!
"In compliance with the will of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: Commander Zhang Cheng has been loyal to the Emperor and the country, and has relieved the siege of Datong in times of crisis. He is now promoted to the rank of Commander-in-Chief of the Navy of the two provinces, and is conferred the title of Vice Minister of the Ministry of War."

"Appreciate this!"

But just after Zhang Juzheng finished reading the last sentence, Zhang Cheng's head was buzzing.
Isn't he a member of the Imperial Guard? Why did he become the commander of the navy?
And it’s two provinces, what does this mean?
"General Zhang, aren't you still thanking me?"

Seeing that Zhang Cheng didn't respond, Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but cough.
"Your Majesty, I, Zhang Cheng, thank you!"

Stepping forward to receive the imperial edict, Zhang Cheng muttered, "Zhang Taiyue, what's going on?" "The Japanese pirates have been a problem in Jiangnan recently, and His Majesty intends to let you govern!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Zhang Juzheng also hurriedly explained,
Hearing this, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but narrow his eyes and said, "Dealing with the Japanese pirates, this is my specialty!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in disbelief, Zhang Juzheng really wanted to say, have you ever fought against the Japanese pirates? Why are you talking so arrogantly?
But when he thought of Zhang Cheng's rise to wealth, Zhang Juzheng fell silent.

Because it seems like this guy really was the one who held a knife and chased the Japanese pirates, and that's how he was promoted to a captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, right?
"Present prisoners!"

As the officials of the Ministry of Rites behind him shouted, a steady stream of prisoners were taken away.
Under a series of rituals, Zhang Cheng could be said to have become a puppet, following Zhang Juzheng's lead one after another.
"I will never surrender a prisoner next time!"

Sitting on the steps with a tired face, Zhang Cheng took off his helmet and looked at Zhang Juzheng beside him.

Standing aside, Zhang Juzheng glanced at Zhang Cheng and said, "Vulgar, get up!"

"Why don't you give me a hand? We are in the same boat, right?"

Looking at Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but chuckle.
"Don't act like a bandit. Zhang is a scholar!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but feel disgusted.
"Oh, I know the Three Character Classic by heart!"

Reaching out his hand, Zhang Cheng looked at Zhang Juzheng in front of him.

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Zhang Juzheng slowly reached out his hand and pulled him up.

But when the setting sun shone on the two of them, their shadows slowly lengthened!

In the imperial courtyard in the capital,
On the table filled with various delicacies, Ding Zheng picked up some fish and stuffed it into his mouth, saying, "Junior brother, try this, it's delicious!"

Looking at Ding Xiu who was covered in bandages, Jin Yichuan couldn't help but say, "Brother, go slowly, no one is going to snatch it from you!"

"Oh, Junior Brother, you don't know, Senior Brother was almost killed by this bastard. Five hundred people, five hundred people charging at three thousand Mongolian cavalry, does he think he is the King of Chu?"

Pointing at Zhang Cheng with chopsticks, Ding Xiu couldn't help but complain.

After hearing Ding Xiu's words, Zhang Cheng was also annoyed and said: "How dare you blame me? Who was it that saw Altan and desperately asked me to go up and kill him?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng awkwardly, Ding Xiu fell silent.

Because it seemed that he was a little crazier at the beginning, because he knew that after Altan was beheaded, they would definitely be promoted!
"The commander-in-chief of the two provinces' naval forces, second rank, Lord Zhang!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng excitedly, Lu Jianxing beside him couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

Because he also wanted to rush to the grassland at this moment, a good scholar would become a marquis!

But looking at Lu Jianxing on the side, Shen Lian hurriedly said: "Brother, calm down, this is a matter of life and death!"

"I am not talented. I am now a fourth-rank cavalry captain! I am in charge of the garrison."

Picking up a piece of meat and putting it in his mouth, Ding Xiu couldn't help but exclaimed: "Xuan!"

Looking at his senior brother's appearance, Jin Yichuan's mouth twitched, because he seemed to be Xiaoqi at the moment, right?
And the eldest brother, Lu Jianxing, is only a centurion! This was only raised after the last "persuasion to surrender"!

"This trip to Jiangnan will definitely not be smooth sailing, I hope Master Zhang will take good care of my brother!"

Raising his glass, Jin Yichuan quickly spoke.
"He takes care of me? Are you kidding me? I've always been the one taking care of him on the battlefield! Junior brother, we don't need to ask for help!"

Looking at Jin Yichuan, Ding Xiu spoke with a domineering look on his face.
Looking at Ding Xiu, Jin Yichuan said, "Brother, if you go to Jiangnan, you can ask Master and the others for help!"

"master?"

Thinking of this, Ding Xiu couldn't help but frown, as if he was considering what price their sect could be sold for!
