The issue of offering prisoners quickly caused a sensation in the capital.

The people on both sides of Zhengyangmen Street were crowded with people, rushing to see the appearance of the Tatar prisoners and see the brave and good warriors of the Ming Dynasty who could defeat the Tatar soldiers.

At one time, he offered up to 2,600 Yi bandits to capture them, which was the first time in the history of the Ming Dynasty!

The last time the capital was so lively, it was when Ma Wensheng returned to the capital after the Battle of Hami in the 12th year of Hongzhi, but there were only less than a thousand prisoners, and now he has finally relived the grand occasion.

These generals under Chen Xi were all unknown when they left the capital. They were generally unsuccessful in the capital camp and were excluded by their superiors. They were equivalent to being sent to the new governor of Yansui, Chen Xi. When they came back, they were already great heroes and heroes that everyone admired, which made the soldiers of the Beijing camp who maintained order on the spot jealous.

Before, on the high platform inside Zhengyang Gate, everyone consciously kept a distance from Chen Xi. After all, the rumors were solid. It was said that Chen Xi offended Liu Jian and Li Dongyang and would be idle after returning to Beijing. But at this time, everyone leaned against him, because only by standing next to him could the glory be revealed and supported by the Ming people and soldiers.

The team of prisoners offered was not over half. Xiao Jing saw that they were all Tatars and had not adulterated. He finally felt completely relieved and came over to admire him excitedly: "Mr. Shen, you are really capable... Our family is really curious. Why did you bring back so many prisoners in less than three months after going out?"

Chen Xi was waving to the long team. Hearing this, he looked back at Xiao Jing and asked in confusion: "I don't understand what Eunuch Xiao said... Is Eunuch Xiao accusing that there are too few prisoners?"

"No, no, I just remind Lord Shen, if there are so many prisoners next time, the prophet will say a word, so that after coming... I will be caught off guard. Our family doesn't know how to explain to His Majesty after returning!" Xiao Jing said unstoppably.

Chen Xi nodded: "Eunuch Xiao reminds me that I will remember it next time!"

After seeing it, Zhang Yanling couldn't help but feel envious and jealous, thinking: "What kind of luck did this kid go? He can win every battle? I still want to have a next time? Dream about you!"

Even though Zhang Yanling was unhappy, he knew that he could not argue with Chen Xi, and the only thing he could do was to stare at the high platform.

The long prisoner team walked for half an hour, and there were also unhappy times in the middle. The main reason was that these prisoners did not obey the discipline and whipped the prisoners with whips often happened, but no one would run out to abuse the prisoners or whatever, mainly because the Ming Dynasty and the Tatars seemed to be born with hatred.

Seeing the attack on prisoners, thinking about the hard days he had lived in the past few months, the people all applauded, and they couldn't come to the scene and beat him hard to relieve his hatred.

The captive team was about to pass, Xiao Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Mr. Shen, is it gone?"

Chenxidao: "What remains are probably some food, supplies and spoils, but some of them are stored in Juyong Pass and cannot be transported to the capital for the time being!"

Xiao Jing smiled and said, "No need, it's enough to have these. Your Majesty must be very happy when he sees it. Lord Shen just needs to wait for His Majesty's reward!"

Chen Xi saluted respectfully, and Xiao Jing couldn't help but look outside the city gate. The sensation caused by the officers and soldiers under Chen Xi's command in the matter of offering prisoners was too great. He was eager to know how much spoils Chen Xi's troops were. As an eunuch, he was also greedy for money, which was almost a common problem for eunuchs.

But the team that offered prisoners was a distance away from the team that escorted food, supplies, and spoils behind. After waiting for a while, the commander came over. A loud voice rang out: "There are 1,400 soldiers of the central army, escorting food, supplies and equipment into the city!"

Xiao Jing was a little confused when he heard this. Seeing Chen Xi waved his hand, he asked the messenger to send a report to the Meridian Gate, and quickly stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Shen, so many prisoners have only found more than 2,000 soldiers and horses to escort them. Why are they just food, grass and other things, and they also need more than 1,000 soldiers and horses?"

Chen Xi shrugged and replied: "Maybe the baggage is too heavy, so I can only find more people!"

Xiao Jing said "Oh" and still didn't understand what was going on. But he saw soldiers and carriages coming here behind him. This time, the transport was not so much as an artillery team.

The key to Chen Xi's victory in this battle is the possession of a large number of Flang machine cannons.

Most of these Flang cannons were snatched back from the Tatars. In the past few years, this thing was idle in the passes of Sanbian and Xuanda and was almost rusted. In this war with the Tatars, the border passes did not take the artillery seriously at all, and even if used, it did not exert its due power.

Only Chen Xi mastered the essence of using hot weapons, and he understood some medieval European battle formations, such as the Spanish phalanx, the Morris phalanx, as well as horizontal and column tactics, and knew how to perfectly combine hot weapons with cold weapons. This was his magic weapon to defeat the enemy.

Carriages, mule carriages, donkey carriages, etc., all animals that can be used were used by the army this time. Although the Flang machine cannons at each door were not very heavy, the small ones were 100 kilograms and the large ones were 500 kilograms, and they dragged them towards the city gate.

It is easy to go to war and difficult to return!

It seemed that nothing went well on the way back. When pursuing the Tatars, the soldiers dragged cannons with livestock and marched very fast. However, when they returned to the capital, especially when they entered the city, the wheels of the car were falling down one by one, which made the officers and soldiers flew and dragged them barely, which was completely inconsistent with the majestic appearance of the two groups of soldiers when they entered the city.

It's like these two groups of troops belonging to different armies, and there is no comparison at all.

"Ha ha……"

The people who had been envious of Chen Xi's troops before finally couldn't help laughing loudly now, especially Zhang Yanling's laughter was the loudest.

The soldiers dragged the cannon and passed by him. He stood on the platform and smiled so happily, without considering the feelings of the soldiers.

Zhang Yanling teased: "Mr. Shen, your troops are just like this!"

Chen Xi didn't say anything, but thought to himself: "These heavy artillery can be taken from three sides by the Tartars to Tumu Fort. After I seized it, I used it to defend the city. After that, I rushed to the capital for dust and still came in handy. It was very difficult... You don't even look at the environment of Tumu Fort, what difficulties and obstacles are there on the way, how scarce the animals used to pull artillery are. Even if they are ridiculed, the soldiers must be resentful!"

At this moment, many of the artillery in the army have been unable to be used due to the explosion and excessive wear of the cannon, but they have been transported back by the officers and soldiers. All the soldiers cherish these cannons that have made great contributions and are reluctant to abandon them.

There are one cannon that Chen Xi plans to send it back to the Ministry of War to rebuilt, and these things will soon come in handy again.

When the cannon team was moving, the officials and generals on the platform did not pay much respect. Instead, the people were very curious about this special weapon. They rushed forward to check, and even wanted to go up to help push and pull, but were all blocked outside by the officers and soldiers and yamen who were responsible for maintaining order.

When the cannon-carrying team almost passed by, Xiao Jing asked, "Mr. Shen, is it the only army left?"

Chen Xi thought for a while and replied: "It seems that the convoy transporting the first level has not passed yet!"

"First level!?"

After Chen Xi reminded Xiao Jingcai to remember, he patted his head and said, "From our memory, Lord Shen captured 2,600 Tatar prisoners on the northwest battlefield. There must be more heads, right?"

Chen Xi nodded slightly, which was considered as an answer.
