Zhu Qiyu had obtained a great victory in his first battle.
This battle had a profound meaning to Da Ming.
Ever since the incident at the Tumu Fortress, in the entire Darming Dynasty, be it officials, soldiers, or ordinary people, everyone was shocked.
They had an inexplicable fear and timidity towards the barbaric and cruel Wala people.
But after Zhu Qiyu's battle, it would allow the entire Great Ming to regain their confidence.
When he returned to Cercis Pass, all the people in the city rushed out of their homes.
They all knelt on the ground, their eyes filled with respect as they praised this new emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
At the same time, the city was filled with people joining the army.
From the 40 - 50 year old border herdsmen to the 15 - 16 year old youths, they all wanted to join the war against the Wala.
The morale of the soldiers in the Purple Jing Pass was boosted and their confidence was bursting.
It was supposed to be a battle to destroy the city, but this new emperor had turned the situation around and wiped out the 30,000 elite Wala soldiers.
The entire Zijing Pass was filled with celebration.
Purple Jing Pass, Guardian Manor.
Wen Guan Official Yue and General Ma Ning formally bowed to Zhu Qiyu.
"Please don't stand on ceremony, my two beloved ministers."
"This time, I admire the courage and courage of the two of you to die with the Purple Jing Pass.”
Zhu Qiyu's words made the two of them reveal joy on their faces.
There was no doubt that they had left a very good impression on the new emperor.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The two of them stood up respectfully and retreated to the side.
At this moment, Zhang Mao, Tang He, and South Tyrant King Shi Zhuzi walked into the hall.
"Your Majesty, the battlefield outside the city has been cleaned up. The heads of the Wala Tartars had been cut off and their bodies burned.”
Zhu Qiyu nodded,"Place the heads of the Wala Tartars outside the city gates." I want to let you see the consequences of being my enemy.”
"As for Cang Li He's head. Didn't you catch a eunuch who escaped? Let him bring this head to Wala.”
When Zhu Qiyu led the army to the Purple Jing Pass to provide support, he happened to run into the escaping eunuch Li Yi.
Zhu Qizhen had wanted to kill him on the spot, but in the end, he still let him live.
Even such trash had its uses.
"Yes, Your Majesty. There were still a few Wala people in the prison, so they could take Li Yi away.”
Guardian Fang Yue suggested.
Zhu Qiyu nodded in agreement.
In this way, they could dampen the morale of the Wala army.
Zhu Qiyu generously rewarded the soldiers who had just won a great victory with money, food, and cloth.
As for their merits in killing enemies, Fang Yue, the guardian, would write a memorial and submit it.
Although this guardian Fang Yue looked like a scholar, he had the heroic spirit of a border soldier.
Moreover, he was resourceful and highly valued by Zhu Qiyu.
At the celebration banquet, he found out that he was the student of his father-in-law, Grand Tutor Feng.
Moreover, he was from the Flower in One Armor.
It was only because he had offended the eunuch Wang Zhen and the Imperial Academy's official Xu Youzhen when he had written a letter of advice in the Imperial Academy.
He was demoted to the dangerous and harsh Zijing Pass to guard it.
It had been five years.
Although Fang Tanhua's position was low, he had achieved extraordinary results here.
In the words of Ma Ning, the general of Zijing Pass, Old Fang had dug canals to divert water, built dams, and developed several artificial pastures during his years in office.
Apart from that, they also strengthened trade with the various ethnic minorities.
It allowed Zijing Pass to turn from a military town into a border city in five years.
This was all thanks to Fang Yue.
After listening to Ma Ning's story, Zhu Qiyu couldn't help but exclaim that this was a rare talent.
"Haha, I didn't expect that this time, I really came to the right place. I even found a few peerless geniuses."
Zhu Qiyu praised.
Fang Yue stood up and reminded him.
"Your Majesty, our army has won this battle. However, he would definitely make Yexian furious. Maybe tomorrow he and Tuotuo Buhua would come to attack Zijing Pass again.”
"I have been at the border for a long time and have done some research on the weather here. Tonight, I estimate that there will be a strong wind. If we can send a special force to burn their rations, it will definitely buy us some time.”
Zhu Qiyu nodded.
"Minister Fang is right. Although our army can reach Zijing Pass tomorrow. However, the enemy is at ease and we are tired. It is not advisable to start the battle tomorrow.”
"If we use a surprise army to burn their rations, we can delay them for a day or two.”
"Yes. I wonder which general is willing to go?"
South Tyrant King Shi Zhuzi, Zhang Mao, and Tang Jie all scrambled to step forward.
He expressed that he was willing to lead 500 cavalry to carry out this plan.
Faced with the three people fighting over it, Zhu Qiyu ultimately still chose the stone pillar.
Because this guy had always been unpredictable.
Zhang Mao and Tang Jie were deeply influenced by their family's art of war and were prone to sticking to the rules.
It was more suitable for Shi Zhuzi to go.
Moreover, he had often brought his subordinates to do these things in the past, so he was very experienced.
"Haha, then I will go. Your Majesty, just wait for my good news.”
As Shi Zhuzi spoke, he ran out of the hall.
Zhang Mao and Tang Jie both looked regretful.
Zhu Qiyu looked at the two of them and laughed,"Hehe, we still have a few tough battles to fight." Are you still afraid that you won't be able to seize the opportunity?"
At the same time.
In the same city, in the commander's tent of the Wala tribes.
After Yexian, Tuotuo Buhua, and the Wala generals saw Cangheli's head, they were shocked.
They were all enraged.
The Wala soldiers also volunteered to avenge Cang Lang tribe's Cang Heli.
The battle had just begun.
The 30,000 elite Wala troops were wiped out just like that.
Such a loss could be said to be extremely heavy.
One had to know that the Wala tribes only had 180,000 to 190,000 soldiers.
This time, they had lost one-sixth of it.
Most importantly, they had yet to take down the Zijing Pass.
"I didn't expect that Zhu Qiyu would actually dare to go out personally? I thought he would defend the capital to the death.”
Ye Xian's eyes were filled with a bloodthirsty sneer.
"Haha, since he's here, then let him accompany his brother Zhu Qizhen.”
"Generals, listen up. The next day, they broke camp and attacked Zijing Pass to capture Zhu Qiyu, the new emperor of Ming Dynasty.”
Hearing Yexian's order, the leaders of the Wala tribes all stood up and accepted the order.
Wala was sweating profusely, but his face was gloomy.
He was the real Khan of the Wala tribes.
But now, Yexian didn't put him in his eyes at all.
He completely ignored his existence.
This made him furious.
However, there was nothing he could do.
In the Battle of Tumu Fortress, they had first destroyed 200,000 Great Ming soldiers and captured the Great Ming Emperor Zhu Qizhen.
The limelight and prestige had long surpassed him, the so-called Great Khan.
It could be predicted that after they took down the capital of Ming Dynasty.
He would first make a move on him, then establish a country and declare himself emperor.
