Every invasion of the Eastern Captives is a bloody lesson, which caused a huge disaster to China.
They not only robbed us of money, food and livestock.
And wantonly plundered our brothers for their slaves, and plundered our sisters for their enjoyment.
Now they are coming again!
Soldiers, each of us has parents, brothers and sisters, and even children.
Shall we just turn a blind eye and close our eyes, and let these wolves do what they want?
At that time, transportation and communication were not developed, and information was blocked.
Ordinary people are generally unaware of these major events of foreign invasions.
Although there were some people present who had heard about it, they didn't say exactly what happened, most of them lived in the pass.
Hearing what their emperor said in person today, the anger of all the soldiers was aroused by the emperor.
They are all bloody men, wishing they could fight immediately and kill all those damned aliens.
All the soldiers held up their weapons and shouted loudly:
"No, we must not allow Dongyao to act recklessly, please send an edict to the emperor.
"We want to repay the blood of the kidnappers, rob their sisters, kill their families, and wipe out these damn aliens..."
Zhu Youjian's words completely aroused public outrage.
Seeing the high morale and bloodiness of the soldiers, Li Yanhong's wife, Qi Jiguang and Ah Qing, nodded frequently.
Zhu Youjian was also very satisfied with the performance of the soldiers. He raised his hands high to signal the soldiers to be quiet.
The martial arts arena, which was still chaotic just now, immediately quieted down after Zhu Youjian signaled.
"Soldiers, if we fight against the outside world, we must first secure the inside. If there is discord among us, they will stab us in the back when we attack the East.
In order to completely crack down on the captives and protect our homeland, we must level up internally and the whole country must be unified.
And you are a sharp knife for my Ming Dynasty to unify the country, and you will also be my heroes of Ming Dynasty. The people will never forget you, and Ming Dynasty will never forget you.
If you wipe out the rogues, your meritorious deeds will be recorded in Daming's merit book forever and will be immortalized forever.Fastest update../ ../
I can also guarantee that as long as you bravely kill the enemy, the military salary will be increased to 30 taels of silver, paid once every seven days, and there will be absolutely no delay.
After the national reunification, each of your families will have their own fields, all tax-free.
Of course, there are rewards and punishments.
If it is found that someone is greedy for life and fear of death as a deserter, or does not work hard, he will be expelled from the army and will be executed on the spot during wartime.
Are you still willing to fight for Daming, to protect your brothers, sisters and children from being bullied by other races, and to stain the battlefield with blood? "
"Tell me loudly!"
Before Zhu Youjian finished speaking, an earth-shattering cry erupted in the martial arts arena:
"Don't worry, your majesty, we are willing to shed the last drop of blood for Daming, our family, and our comrades."
"As long as the family is healthy and the country is stable and prosperous, there is nothing to be afraid of if you lose your head and get a big scar."
"Long live the emperor, long live the Ming Dynasty!"
……
The morale and enthusiasm of the soldiers made Zhu Youjian feel a little red in the eyes.
With such good soldiers, why couldn't Chongzhen inspire their morale.
After thinking about it again, I was relieved. The military salary was not only exploited layer by layer, but also seriously delayed. Many soldiers could not receive the military salary for a long time.
At that time, the Donglin Party was in the way, the civil official group was powerful, and the generals were oppressed everywhere, so they couldn't hold their heads up in front of these civil officials.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, there was no shortage of good generals, such as Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting, Man Gui, Cao Wenzhao, Sun Chengzong, etc.
(Whether Yuan Chonghuan doesn’t say anything, his merits and demerits are difficult to determine now. If Mao Wenlong is not dead, the Dongbao will definitely be delayed for many years before entering the customs, and maybe he will not be able to enter the customs at all)
Their death or murder had a lot to do with those civil officials and eunuchs.
Although Chongzhen was suspicious, he did not attack the general directly, as if the general only killed one Yuan Chonghuan.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the military pay of ordinary soldiers was converted into silver, which was only 18 taels.
Adding layers of exploitation, the most you can get is less than ten taels, which is a year's income.
Today, the emperor not only promised to increase the military pay to 30 taels of silver, but also paid them directly.
And it is distributed once every seven days, and the fields are also distributed to them, all of which are exempted from taxes.
In this way, there are still soldiers who are unwilling to fight for Ming Dynasty (their brains have just been washed)
The atmosphere at the scene far exceeded Zhu Youjian's expectations, not to mention the astonishment of Li Yan, his wife and Qi Jiguang.
After reacting, Li Yan stepped forward to ask for instructions:
"Your Majesty, when will we send troops?"
Zhu Youjian pondered briefly:
"Three days later, when your troops are dispatched to Changping, I will send another general to help you."
"Of order, thank you, the emperor, for your trust."
Zhu Youjian smiled slightly, reached out and patted Li Yan on the shoulder:
"There is a long way to go. I hope that you and your wife will succeed and return home as soon as possible. After the troops are withdrawn, go to the treasury to withdraw 300 million taels of silver to boost the morale of the soldiers."
"Ah... how can there be so much silver in the treasury, the emperor should wait for a while."
As Li Zicheng's first adviser.
Li Yan heard that Emperor Chongzhen was very poor.
How could it be possible to allocate 300 million taels of silver at once.

Does the emperor have money?Li Yan thought the emperor was joking with him.
