On a spacious playground in Alimari City, tens of thousands of soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were lined up neatly, each with their heads held high and their eyes firm, with a fiery look in their eyes.
After several months of fighting, they not only conquered the Western Region, but even the areas in the middle of the river. They punched the Tatar tribes in the north, kicked the Kazakh Khanate in the west, overpowered the hero Shabani Khan, and destroyed the Turpan Khanate. , Chagatai Khanate, plus Said Khan entrenched in Hotan and Aksu.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Out of all the tribes in the Western Region, large and small, were killed and frightened by them. They were all frightened by their attacks.
Finally, it¡¯s time to reward based on merit. Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s imperial edict on rewards has arrived. Many people are silently calculating in their hearts what kind of rewards they can get for their military exploits.
Standing in front of the square formation are Wang Shouren, Yang Yun, Han Yi, Huo Yun and other generals, all with smiles on their faces, quietly waiting for the start of the awards ceremony.
Liu Jin, who was dressed in crimson robes, held the imperial edict in his hand and walked to the podium with great strides. When everyone saw it, they immediately pricked up their ears.
There were 200,000 soldiers in the Western Expedition. This time, only 10,000 people came to attend the awards ceremony. They were all representatives drawn from various armies. The Western Regions and the Hezhong region still need large armies to guard them. It is impossible to really tell everyone. Gather here in Alimari to participate in the award conference.
What is held here is the most important reward conference. Each army also has a reward conference to reward meritorious soldiers.
With the arrival of Liu Jin, behind Liu Jin, strong men came carrying big boxes. Soon the boxes were placed neatly on the podium, the lids were opened, and the white silver coins shone with charming light. light.
"The most practical way to reward soldiers is silver. Silver notes don't work. Only the shining silver is the most motivational thing."
In addition to silver, there are also gold, silver, and bronze medals as well as certificates signed by the emperor. Well, this system is also learned from later generations.
Although material rewards are very important, honor is also indispensable. In later generations, real soldiers will value honor above all else. Therefore, in the new army, Liu Jin naturally established an honor system based on the systems of later generations.
Standing on the podium, Liu Jin looked at the army in front of him. It already looked like the army of later generations, and his hard work was not in vain.
"In the winter of the fourteenth year of Hongzhi, the Turpan Khanate in the Western Region openly provoked our Ming Dynasty, colluded with the Hami Guards, plundered the border people, and invaded our territory. Our Ming Dynasty could not bear it anymore and sent 200,000 troops to march westward. Thanks to the blessings of the Ming Dynasty's ancestors, the Ming Dynasty's emperor Wen Tao The military strategy, all the princes in the court worked together, and our Ming Dynasty was united, and the soldiers of the Western Expedition fought bravely to kill the enemy The Western Expedition lasted for four months, and successively went through the Battle of Hami, the Battle of Anle City in Turpan, the decisive battle of Chagatai, the Battle of Hezhong, and the Battle of Sahara. There were hundreds of wars, big and small, including the Battle of Markand.¡±
¡°The whole army fought bravely to kill the enemy, fought bravely, fought consecutive battles, conquered cities and conquered the territory, and was invincible. Wherever the troops came, all the tribes surrendered, regained our homeland in the Western Region of the Central Plains, and opened up the territory of the Hezhong area for our Ming Dynasty"
Liu Jin¡¯s voice was very loud and clearly reached the ears of everyone present.
Everyone listened very carefully. Although they all knew that this was an opening statement with little nutrition, everyone listened with gusto and their blood boiled. The scenes from the recent battle with all parties seemed to reverberate in their minds.
"Our Ming Dynasty reformed the military system and implemented a compulsory military service system. In the military, meritorious services are rewarded, and rewards and punishments are clear. I will commend the meritorious officers and soldiers in this Western Expedition."
When Liu Jin read this, everyone's spirits were suddenly shaken, and the main event was coming.
Everyone pricked up their ears, cheered up, and listened carefully.
"Liu Rong, Cao Yi, Dong Xing, Zhao Guozhong, Wang Zhidao!"
As Liu Jin finished speaking, five disabled soldiers stepped onto the podium with the support of their comrades. The five of them came to receive the award on behalf of the disabled soldiers.
Looking at the five people in front of them, Liu Rong has lost his left hand, Cao Yi has broken a leg, Dong Xing is missing an eye, Zhao Guozhong can only sit in a wheelchair, and Wang Zhidao has no ears.
Marching in the cold winter, you not only have to face death in war, but also face the test of severe cold. Many soldiers did not die in the hands of the enemy, but were frostbitten or frozen to death by the severe cold weather.
Liu Jin gave a very respectful military salute to the five people. The military salute was also made by Liu Jin with reference to the military system of later generations. Soldiers did not need to kneel to anyone except the king and their parents. A military salute was enough.
The five people were also excited to give Liu Jin a gift in return, even though they had been there beforeWhen I met Liu Jin in high school, I always saluted him, but now it's different.
"Liu Rong fought bravely and killed twelve enemies. He was rewarded with three hundred and sixty taels of silver, three hundred and sixty acres of fertile land in the river, three orchids from the Western Regions, five slaves, one horse, two cattle, ten sheep, and cloth. Thirty horses.¡±
"In addition, a medal of bravery of the Ming Dynasty will be awarded, and a certificate of bravery will be signed by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty!"
Liu Jin kept reading out the rewards. Among them were real gold and silver. He was rewarded with 360 taels of silver. Killing an enemy was almost 20 taels of silver. In addition, the two days and 360 acres of the river area, This is real money.
In addition, during the Western Expedition, the Ming soldiers captured a large number of slaves from various tribes in the Western Regions, including a large number of women and slaves. For tribes that were unwilling to surrender to the Ming, or continued to resist the Ming and killed the Ming soldiers, Liu Jin There was no mercy at all.
"The men could be killed cleanly, captured and sold as slaves, or simply rewarded meritorious soldiers as slaves. In short, Liu Jin had no intention of being a good person.
Especially in the Hezhong area, because they wanted to clean up the Hezhong area, the army killed and cleaned up the Hezhong area wantonly, and captured many slaves and prisoners.
The sale of slaves alone cost a lot of money, which was also an important source of income for the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.
There is money, fertile land, and rewards for orchids and slaves. As for cattle, sheep and horses, they are also indispensable. This time the Western Expedition also obtained a large number of cattle and sheep.
Naturally, it is impossible for these cattle and sheep to rush back to the capital or the Central Plains. It is best to digest them on the spot, or be eaten by the soldiers. The uneaten ones will also be rewarded as prizes to the soldiers of the three armies.
In addition to real gold and silver, there are also medals and certificates, which are of an honorary nature. Especially this certificate, which has the signature of Emperor Hongzhi and the seal of Emperor Hongzhi. Of course, it is definitely not a jade seal, but the personal one of Emperor Hongzhi. seal.
Being able to obtain Emperor Hongzhi's calligraphy is undoubtedly a supreme honor for ordinary people. As for whether this is the signature of Emperor Hongzhi (when the emperor was too lazy, he would be ghostwritten by eunuchs, censors and the like), this It is no longer important, Emperor Hongzhi said it is.
Liu Rong took the heavy cloth bag containing silver coins with one hand, and then Liu Jin put a medal representing honor on him and awarded him a certificate with the title of the book written by Emperor Hongzhi.
When receiving the certificate of award, Liu Rong also saluted very respectfully in the direction of the east capital, which showed his respect for the Emperor of Heaven.
After the salute, the medals and certificates were solemnly put away. As for the bag containing the silver coins, comrades in arms were naturally there to help carry it. The rewarded farmland needed to be collected in the Hezhong area, as well as the orchids, slaves, cattle, sheep, horses, cloth, etc. In this way, you can just collect it by yourself with the voucher from the start of the game.
"Long live the Ming Dynasty, long live the Ming Dynasty!"
At the end, Liu Rong shouted with all his strength.
This is a habitual shouting, and it is also a message from the bottom of my heart.
He is the son of a poor family. There are many brothers in the family. He is the seventh eldest son. The poor people in the family cannot even eat enough to eat. The imperial court implements compulsory military service. Because their family has many brothers, Liu Rong finally enlisted. Became a soldier.
Although he is now missing one hand, he has no regrets at all during the past few years as a soldier, because being a soldier will not only allow him to eat well, but also enable him to read and write, and learn some knowledge and culture.
What's more important is that after serving as a soldier for several years, he also accumulated a lot of money. Because he was a soldier, his family was exempted from taxes, and his life suddenly became much better.
Relying on the money he sent home, several of his brothers who could not get wives got married and started businesses. However, this time he fought bravely and killed the enemy bravely, and was rewarded with a large amount of money and land, which was enough to ensure that he would have no food and clothing after he retired from the army. Worry, and was discharged from the army due to disability.
There was an arrangement from above for him to go to the Hezhong area and become a town mayor in the town where his farmland is located. The mayor is a junior official even smaller than the county magistrate, but it is still an arrangement and an official.
??From an illiterate boy from a poor family, he suddenly turned around. What else could he be dissatisfied with such a reversal in his life? As for the left hand he lost in battle, it was the honor of his life.
With the certificate in his hand, the medal hanging on his chest, the heavy silver bag and the fertile land, his voice became extremely loud.
Such a Ming Dynasty is a Ming Dynasty worthy of everyone fighting and dying for, and such an emperor is a holy emperor.
"Long live the Ming Dynasty, long live the Emperor!"
As Liu Rong shouted out, tens of thousands of soldiers on the entire playground soon followed suit and shouted out in unison. The voices were neat and loud, resounding through the sky and echoing continuously.
This made the factory guards who secretly recorded all this couldn't help but pick up their pens and write this.
The loyalty of the Ming Dynasty soldiers to the Emperor is unquestionable. Anyone may betray the Emperor, but the Ming Dynasty soldiers cannot betray the Emperor.
Liu Jin, the Marquis of Liaodong, was loyal to the emperor without any second thoughts, because in the army of Ming Dynasty, Liu Jin tried hard to make every Ming Dynasty soldier swear allegiance to Ming Dynasty and the emperor of Ming Dynasty, not to him as the commander-in-chief.
The awards ceremony continues, and meritorious soldiers continue to come on stage to receive their awards.
