698 Heyday

Hearing this, the county magistrate of Mizhi County couldn't help laughing. When Li Laiheng saw this, he immediately patted his chest and said, "The Mongolian Tartars must dare to do whatever they want. Let's go and destroy them! Our Dongjiang army even destroyed Jianlu, are you still afraid that they will succeed?"

He took this opportunity to finally show his presence.

The county magistrate looked at him, then smiled and said, "The Mongolian tribe is already afraid of it, so how dare you offend me, the Ming Dynasty!"

Speaking of this, he saw Li Guo showing a slight doubt, and explained in detail: "The emperor destroyed the Tumote tribe in one battle, destroyed more than 10,000 Jianlu in Guihua City in the second battle, and also destroyed the Urat tribe and the Chahar tribe, destroyed the eastern Mongolian tribe in three battles, or made them completely surrender. How many people can achieve such a great martial arts since ancient times? If they angered the emperor, wouldn't they be afraid that their tribe would also suffer a catastrophe?"

Li Guo nodded when he heard this, and he already understood something in his heart.

However, the county magistrate did not stop, but instead talked endlessly: "At the time before, the emperor had issued an order to the three tribes of Mobei to surrender, not just surrender. Not long ago, news had already come that the three tribes of Mobei had agreed to not dare to go against the will of Tian Khan."

Speaking of this, he said proudly: "The emperor's reputation is now well-known on the grassland. The three tribes in Mobei are like this. How can there be exceptions in the western Mongolian? In fact, it is not surprising at all. In the past, the slave chiefs in Liaodong could make the three tribes in Mobei surrender and the Wei Lat tribe in the western region surrender. With the current power of the emperor, they would let them surrender, and they would not dare to ignore them."

If the grassland tribes were still a little confident when the Central Plains dynasty was strong in the past, I felt that the army of the Central Plains dynasty could not help them on this vast grassland. At least it did not spend a lot of money, material and manpower, but it was impossible for them. Whether to surrender to the Central Plains dynasty would depend only on whether they wanted to do so.

But now, the grassland tribes have been destroyed one after another, and even a large army has been wiped out. The examples are not a question they think or not, but depend on the intention of the emperor of the Central Plains dynasty. If they surrender, they have to surrender; if they want them to surrender, they are not something they can deal with.

This kind of power of the Central Plains dynasty over the grassland tribes has never happened since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. It is reasonable that the county magistrate of Mizhi County feels proud and proud.

"Yes, if they dare not obey the emperor's will, the Jianlu has been destroyed and the Japanese have been defeated. We can all be transferred to the grassland to fight those tribes who are dissatisfied!" Li Laiheng nodded repeatedly when he heard this, held his head high and agreed with great enthusiasm.

Li Guo was also nodding, his face full of admiration.

As a native of northern Shaanxi, in the past, every autumn, the Mongolian tribes entered the pass to attack Qiugu. The ancestors had to suffer such military disasters for generations. Now this comparison makes him feel the power of the Ming Dynasty, and this all comes from the wise and magical martial arts of the current emperor!

Just as he was thinking, he heard the county magistrate say to them, "Actually, there is another important reason, that the grassland tribes are willing to submit to the Ming Dynasty so quickly!"

When Li Guo and Li Laiheng heard this, they were both a little surprised, and Li Laiheng asked first: "What's the reason?"

"The so-called "god and powerful" is the king's way!" The county magistrate shook his head and replied, "The military power is a powerful shock to all Mongolian tribes. In addition, once the Mongolian tribes surrender to the Ming Dynasty, they no longer worry about winter. If the imperial court helps them spend the winter, their lives will be much better than not surrender to the Ming Dynasty. In this way, if there are leaders of the Mongolian tribes who do not want to surrender, their herders will come and surrender secretly."

Speaking of this, he smiled and said, "The three tribes of Mobei are an example. Originally, the emperor refused their surrender and asked them to surrender, so he was still hesitating. As a result, their herders came to Hetao in groups. Seeing this, the leaders of the three tribes of Mobei had no choice but to surrender."

When they heard this, the three of them laughed out loud when they thought of the helplessness of the leaders of the three tribes of Mobei.

Subsequently, the county magistrate of Mizhi County introduced the situation in detail in Guihua City. He said that many soldiers from Yulin Military Town have moved to Guihua City. According to the news, it is estimated that in the past two years, the governor of Yansui will also be moved to Guihua City. In addition, a road will be built from Yulin to Guihua City.

Not only many people in northern Shaanxi, but also in Gansu, Shanxi and other places, also went to Guihua City.

Nowadays, the combination of land reclamation and farming and grazing there is much more lively than the inner city.

After hearing the introduction, Li Guo couldn't help but feel very moved and couldn't help but have plans in his heart. Otherwise, he would go to Yulin to find Li Dingguo, who was also honored to return home, and then go to Guihua City together?

Thinking of this in my heart, while it was still early, the county magistrate took them to the place where their old house was.

Naturally, Li Guo’s house would not be a good one, but just thatched mud house in civilian areas. After they escaped and rebelled, no one took care of it and it had already collapsed.

Later, after there were no more bandits in Shaanxi, the local county magistrate rectified the appearance of the county and repaired it a little to avoid being too dilapidated. Now, after receiving the decree that Li Guo was going to come back, he repaired it again.

There are not many families on this street today, and they are deserted. But when the county magistrate led Li Guo and his group over, the man came out of nowhere and stood on both sides of the street and watched.

Seeing Li Guo and Li Laiheng accompanying the county magistrate and a team of personal guards, the onlookers showed envious eyes. When they knew that it was Li Guo and Li Laiheng who returned home in glory, they started to discuss enviously.

Of course, no one was open to mention the rebellion of Li Guo and others, but they were talking about Li Guo’s childhood, or simply the rumors that they fought against Jianlu in Liaodong, etc.

Anyway, there is only one thing inside and outside. Li Guo has been very clever since he was a child, and he has grown up and has a promising career. Now, it’s true. He has become a general in the court, so powerful! He is so glorious!

Li Laiheng is an orphan. His parents died since childhood. He couldn't even remember where his home was. Therefore, standing in Li Guo's hometown, he was a little bored, so he couldn't help but listen to the discussions of the people around him.

To be honest, Li Laiheng was still very helpful in his heart, so he heard it even more excitedly.

“…”

"It seems that eating food for soldiers is also a good choice! As long as you make meritorious service, this official position will go up and down! It has been so many years since then, and you have become a great commander. How many of this commander, we in the Ming Dynasty have!"

"Ye, now I know it's good to be a soldier? Before, everyone in the northwest had soldiers and they were going to join the army. I heard that our northern Shaanxi would also implement this matter. If I remember correctly, you were not happy at that time and complained to me!"

"I admit that before, I really thought that a good man would not be a soldier and would be useless. But this would change my mind! The government notice said that if he was a soldier, he would be a military household for generations, and his descendants would be a soldier. And look at them, he could still make contributions in the military. If he was not careful, he could become a general. How might he be so majestic, right? "

“…”

When Li Laiheng heard their words, he couldn't help but feel a little strange, and asked the county magistrate: "County Master, what does it mean to be a soldier in the whole nation?"

The county magistrate was stunned when he was asked suddenly, and then he understood, so he turned to look at him and explained with a smile: "Before, the traitor Chai Shihua Ying Jianlu plundered the northwest and plundered many people. The emperor personally led the expedition. After solving the Jianlu, he issued an order to make the whole people in the northwest have soldiers, and all men of the right age must join the army. Only in this way, even when the imperial army is not around, no one dares to be arrogant. It will not be so easy to be bullied!"

Speaking of this, he turned his head and looked out at the onlookers, and understood what was going on in his heart, and then continued: "A few months ago, the imperial court meant that all the people were soldiers, and they would be pushed open in the entire Shaanxi Province. Now they would be pushed open in northern Shaanxi Province. If there was something wrong with Hetao, they could form enough troops immediately."

After hearing this, Li Laiheng understood what those people outside were talking about.

Seeing that he had no problem, the county magistrate turned around and talked to Li Guo again.

Li Laiheng was bored and continued to listen to the people outside.

“…”

"If it is peaceful today, I am just worried that if I go to join the army and have no enemies, then what kind of soldiers can be like? Only with military merits can I have everything!"

"Yes, I didn't expect that I was still worried about peace in the world. If it were the past, it would have been unexpected that I would have been killed. We Qin people are actually suitable for joining the army, and it doesn't matter if the whole nation is soldier. If there is no military merit to make it, what's the point?"

“…”

Li Laiheng heard their regrets inside and outside, and couldn't help but step out. Following the sound, he saw that there were a few young men, so he said to them in local dialect: "What's the matter? Isn't it easy to make military achievements? Do the Japanese pirates know? It's so high, it's really that high, and I want to covet our Ming Dynasty. Now I'm afraid that I'm going to destroy the country. Some Japanese pirates can kill them. How about it, are you interested?"

Seeing him suddenly coming out and speaking, the people were startled at first, but when they heard the friendly local dialect and saw that the general had no airs at all, these young men became more courageous and tried to talk to Li Laiheng.

Li Laiheng was worried that there was no chance to show off, so he talked endlessly about his experience in Liaodong. He was amazed by these young people. It was not until Li Guohe County Magistrate was leaving that Li Laiheng left reluctantly.

However, after his publicity, the incident of fighting against Japan spread.
