But who are the ones who have made the most contributions. In fact, everyone knows this, but I don’t know how many titles the emperor will award?

Many people are looking forward to the moment when the answer is solved, and they are waiting more and more quickly until the end of the year.

When there were fifteen days before the New Year, three troops suddenly came out of the city. The number was not large. One was a cavalry, but only 800 cavalry. And looking at the flag, it belonged to two different armies; the other was an army that combined infantry and cavalry, with only 600 people. The last army had only 300 people, and it was an infantry army.

These three armies were not stationed outside the capital city, but entered the city and went to the Beijing camp.

When they entered the capital, these Ming soldiers were very excited. Many of them were entering the capital for the first time. Looking at the extremely tall city walls, and seeing the vast streets and countless shops, it was so dazzling.

The soldiers of the five cities of the military commanders took the lead in clearing the streets, but the people could watch the fun on both sides of the soldiers, so they didn't care about this.

At the beginning, many people felt that it had added trouble to them. Although they did not dare to argue in person, they were still inevitably cursing behind their backs. However, when they knew that the army from Liaodong had entered the city, they all stopped complaining and wanted to see what army had entered the city.

At this time, the army was drawn from Liaodong. As long as you had a little brain, you immediately thought of the rumors in the capital, saying that the emperor would be awarded the title at the end of the year and reward the meritorious soldiers. Suddenly, they were all excited. Looking at the Ming soldiers on the march, their eyes became much more eager, and they started to discuss carefully behind the soldiers of the Wucheng Military Police.

"These are definitely the soldiers who killed Jianlu the most? They are so good!"

"No, since the 12th year of Chongzhen, the capital of the capital has never been attacked by Jianlu again, and there is no military disaster, but thanks to them!"

"You said it, so I'm sorry for my brothers who have been in Yongping Mansion before, but they were slaughtered by Jianlu. Thanks to them killing Jianlu to avenge them, otherwise, I wouldn't know what to say during the worship every year!"

“…”

To put it bluntly, it was the emperor who wisely defeated Jianlu; however, in terms of details, it was only through the bloody battles of these Ming soldiers in front of him that he could win one victory after another, defeat Jianlu back to Liaodong, and ensure the safety of the capital!

Nowadays, all of the people in the capital have suffered from the disaster of the military disaster of Jianlu. It is therefore why they are grateful to these soldiers.

Some knowledgeable people were guessing which army the soldiers who returned to Beijing and were granted their titles belonged to?

"I don't know what kind of army this cavalry is from? Does this young master know?"

"This cavalry, the one who walked in front was the cavalry under the command of General Wu of the Jing camp, and the rest were under the command of General General Jin Guofeng of the Jinzhou."

"This infantry and cavalry is the Dongjiang Army under Governor Lu!"

"And the last one, hey, it's the Denglai Navy!"

“…”

After distinguishing these armies, the most famous one for the people in the capital belongs to the Dongjiang Army. It is not only because of Lu Xiangsheng's reputation, but also the main force of the Dongjiang Army, which was once a bandit that ravaged the northwest and the Central Plains, so it is even more eye-catching.

However, how the emperor dealt with the captured bandits in Nanyang has spread throughout the Ming Dynasty, and the people in the capital naturally knew that they had gone to the Dongjiang army to fight the bandits in Jianlu, they all sincerely repent and voluntarily went to fight the bandits in Jianlu. The remaining old bandits who were unwilling to be killed by the emperor.

It was because of knowing this that the people in the capital were focusing on this army of "prodigal sons turned back". It is hard to say what other thieves are like, but the rebellion must have been forced to rebel. Inspired by the emperor, they were willing to risk their lives to kill and kill the enemy and atone for their sins. They were all good. Thinking of this in their hearts, many of them gave thumbs up to the Dongjiang Army.

In front of the Dongjiang Army, Li Dingguo was leading the way. Although he first entered the capital and was excited to see such prosperity, he still looked serious, with his head held high and his chest, and rode on the horse to keep moving forward as a soldier.

However, when he heard praises from both sides from time to time, he saw a thumbs up to him in the corner of his eyes. The excitement of being affirmed by the people was finally a little uncontrollable. I don’t know when, he smiled happily. When he saw the thumbs up and heard the praises, he quickly clasped his fists to respond.

The other soldiers naturally became even more excited and were not convenient to return the gift, so they used a happy smile to imprint the scene in front of them deeply into their hearts and remember it forever.

After these three troops entered the Beijing camp, the military merit rewards of the relevant soldiers began to spread throughout the capital.

It’s true that I didn’t care about it before, but now when I heard about it, many people in the capital were shocked.

"What did you say? The emperor has given so much grain field? Oh, if I had one in the Sandaying family, wouldn't I be able to survive by collecting rent?"

"They were given their lives for their lives. Do you want your son to go?"

"What's there to be reluctant to let go? It's a pity that my family only has one son, and the others are all daughters. Otherwise, they would definitely be sent to the army. Look, how many acres are there!"

"You don't even look at where these fields are? Are you far away from the capital? Are you willing?"

"What are you unwilling to do? Just give it to the land, you can do whatever you want! And look, if you don't want the grain field, what is the shadow of this reward? As much as 600 taels, it's enough to buy a house and get a wife!"

“…”

It has to be said that when huge benefits are placed in front of you, people will often be attracted by these benefits, and it is not easy to forget the benefits.

Another phenomenon also happened among them. It is that those who were despised before would be envious when they returned home in glory.

Just like most people, they used to look down on military households. If they were to say that the status of military households was not low, at least in name, they could also be admitted to imperial examinations, such as the famous Zhang Juzheng, who was born in a military household. However, they could not resist the poor military households. At least most of the military households were so poor that they were very poor, and they were all military households and poor for generations.

But now, when you look at the military households of at least three major battalions, they are all jealous and envious.

This is actually what Emperor Chongzhen wanted, and it was the reason why he asked the Ministry of War to summarize and announce the rewards of previous ones.

A few days later, two days before the emperor worshipped the Taimiao, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly issued an order, and the three armies entering the city and Wu Sangui's troops who had participated in the grassland war in the Beijing camp went to the three camps of the Imperial Horse Supervision camp.

It was almost noon that these troops, including the three battalions, gathered on the school grounds.

Although the cold wind was howling, they all stood motionless. Because they were notified, the emperor would come.

Not long after, the Jinyiwei lieutenant first entered the military camp, lined up on both sides, and stood until the point and stood on both sides of the station. Then, the emperor's ceremonial guard arrived.

However, Emperor Chongzhen did not wear a dragon robe, but was dressed in armor and dressed as a military general on the battlefield. Behind him, many officials in big red and red robes should be senior officials of the Ming Dynasty such as the Six Ministry and Nine Ministers. Afterwards, many eunuchs came over with boxes. Of course, there were also boxes in their hands, and there were still a large number of them.

When the Ming soldiers in the array saw all this, their chests became even more straighter because they knew that there must be something good next.

Emperor Chongzhen strode to the front of the generals, slowly glanced at the Ming soldiers in front of him, and finally looked at the generals standing in front of the team. Finally, he said loudly: "By the end of this year, it is just around the corner to wipe out the Jianlu. All of this depends on your bloody battle. Your contribution should be remembered by the people of the Ming Dynasty. Walking among the crowd, you must also let the people of the Ming Dynasty know that you are loyal and brave and brave in defending your country!"

After the Han general spread the words, all the Ming soldiers were excited and puzzled. How could they let others know their deeds when walking in the crowd? What should I do if those who don’t know themselves? Could it be that they wrote words on their foreheads and said that they were like this? But this forehead is probably not enough, right? And even if they are enough to write, would it be fine?

They were thinking, and when Emperor Chongzhen said loudly again: "So, I asked the Ministry of Rites to create a medal, which is divided into three levels: gold, silver and copper!"

Speaking of this, he raised his hand and Chen Baoting, who was serving him, immediately stepped forward, presented a small box with both hands, and had already opened the lid. Emperor Chongzhen reached in, picked up a piece of copper coin size, signaled to the Ming soldiers below the stage, and then said: "This is a bronze medal, which can be hung on his chest."

Speaking of this, he personally made a demonstration and hung it on his chest. After hanging it, he patted it for them to show it.

The winter sun shines on the bronze medal, which is very beautiful. When the Ming soldiers looked at it, they couldn't help but feel excited. That is, the medal was hung on their chests and walking on the street, so others would know that they wouldn't have to engrave words on their foreheads!

"I will announce the explanation of the medal in the whole world when I look back. Wearing this medal is a meritorious person in the Ming Dynasty, it is your honor and the glory of the Ming Dynasty." Emperor Chongzhen said this, raised his voice and said in a louder voice, "I am proud of you!"

After hearing this, almost everyone felt eager to have this medal. The emperor would be proud of those who have medals. If this was said, I wonder how many people would envy them to death!

At this moment, these Ming soldiers were proud of their identity for the first time!
