Chapter 201 trouble
The soldiers in the fifth military camp complained, and it was a matter of time before mutiny was happening. Many soldiers felt that the future was bleak. Instead of living in the military camp and waiting to die, it would be better to join the fight against the thieves. It is said that among the people who participated in the thieves, some of them had become high-ranking officials and made a fortune.
This dissatisfaction spread rapidly in the army, especially the Zuoye Army.
The Five Military Camp was the main force of the Ming Dynasty, divided into the Central Army, the Left Ye Army, the Right Ye Army, the Left Strike Army, and the Right Strike Army. The name of the "Five Military Camp" originated from this, but there is another saying that the name of the "Five Army" originated from the Five Military Governor's Office.
The Zuoye Army contributed the most to the battle to defend the capital, but received the worst rewards and treatments. A few years ago, Jiannu Huangtaiji advanced southward and troops arrived at the city of Beijing.
The Jisi Incident is the battle of Jiannu's attack on the Ming Dynasty. At the beginning of the war, Huang Taiji and his powerful generals and elite soldiers attacked Beijing City.
The Ming army and the Later Jin army broke out in Guangqumen and Deshengmen, and the Later Jin army was both repelled.
At that time, the Zuoye Army, which was in charge of Guangqumen and Deshengmen, was the Zuoye Army, who were in charge of Guangqumen and Deshengmen. At that time, the Zuoye Army did do its best and, together with Yuan Chonghuan's Liaodong Army, gave Huangtai a very heavy blow.
The city of Beijing was defended, and the Zuoye Army also made a contribution. However, when the reward was made for merits and rewards, the Zuoye Army received unfair treatment.
For example, although the reward is not comparable to the central army, the left sai army, which did not contribute much, the right sai army made more contributions than them. Even the soldiers of the Youye Army were rewarded, and their Zuoye Army only gave a verbal reward.
In other words, there was not a single Mao in Zuoye Army. The verbal rewards were not used as food, so the soldiers of Zuoye Army began to cause trouble. Perhaps later this incident was exposed to the imperial court, and Emperor Chongzhen felt that it was unreasonable. It is said that the court later allocated 2,000 taels of silver to Zuoye Army.
However, the whereabouts of the money were a mystery. The soldiers of Zuoye Army still didn't even see the roots. So they made trouble again.
But this time, the admiral of the Zuoye Army, King He Fu, secretly killed several people who led the trouble. Later, the matter was suppressed.
Among the Zuoye Army, the most widely circulated saying is: "Dad doesn't love you, your mother doesn't love you, Zuoye Army is really raised by my stepmother!"
"No, but! I just want to make a living in the army. Now I'm going to send us to this place where birds don't poop. I'm not going to do it!" Someone in Zuoye's army began to incite trouble.
Such a big-headed soldier is not good. The ultimate result of a big-headed soldier who incites to make trouble is either to be beaten or even beheaded and beheaded.
The one who incited trouble was a general. He was the chief officer of the Ming Dynasty. In the Ming Dynasty, he belonged to the Beijing camp and border military system. The rank was the seventh rank, second to the chief officer of the army, who commanded a thousand war soldiers, and had about 440 soldiers under his command.
He always belonged to grassroots officers, but he could not get any benefits, and he was very angry. The anger of the soldiers below vented on him, but he was not able to make money. The oil and water were all taken away by the officials above.
This man is called Miao Zhe. When he shouts, the soldiers who have long complained about him will immediately respond.
"That's right, Lord Miao said he wouldn't do it anymore. Brothers, why are we still drinking the northwest wind here? Let's go and ask the Admiral for reason!"
The admiral they mentioned was the commander of the Zuoye Army, He Fu, the King of the Qingyuan Marquis.
But when the big-headed soldier asked to go to the Admiral to cause trouble, the other soldiers were obviously silent.
Why? Because of the unfair treatment, someone caused trouble. Wang Hefu killed a few of the leaders in the first place. But if you don’t ask for an explanation, everyone’s life will be difficult. It’s okay to defend the capital city, but life is difficult, and you can still live a good life.
But the emperor issued an imperial edict and a transfer order to transfer the five military camps out of the capital. Zuoye Army went to Wuqing County, a place where rabbits do not poop. The two meals a day were reduced to one meal. The food was still rare, not to mention other treatments. Some soldiers really couldn't survive and even took out their military uniforms as their own. If they weren't afraid of the strict rules in the army, they would not be allowed to use them as weapons, otherwise they would be whipped to death. Many soldiers had already taken out the weapons in their hands and sold them.
When Wang Hefu, the commander of Zuoye Army, the soldiers immediately became discouraged. Many soldiers sighed, but felt that they could only leave it to fate.
And the general Miao Zhe sat on the wooden ladder on the lookout table of the military camp without saying a word. Suddenly, he patted the wooden ladder hard: "Damn, I can't live this life, what's the point of living! Everyone is not afraid of death, go to the Admiral's tent with me and ask for an explanation!"
The big-headed soldiers were very angry, and some even wanted to sneak away in the middle of the night to be deserters. Although they were still sad when they went out of the military camp, they were all over the place, but they were better than being so cowardly when they stayed in the military camp.
They dared not cause trouble because there was no leader. As the general Miaozhe became the leader, the soldiers below immediately raised their arms and shouted: "Let's go! Go and ask for an explanation!"
Miao Zhe was aggressive and led less than a hundred men to break into the camp of the Zuoye Army Admiral Wang He Fu. Why are there less than a hundred men? Logically speaking, a general leader should have a unit of four to five hundred people, which is due to the disadvantage of the three major military camps being empty-handed.
There were 479 people under the Miaozhe account, but in fact there were only 98 people, including him. The rest were all eaten by officials above. In this way, the military pay of grassroots soldiers was often deducted.
This quickly caused a commotion in the Zuoye Army. When Wang Hefu heard that someone under his command had caused trouble, he quickly led his personal soldiers out of the camp. When Miao Zhe and others came, they were quickly surrounded by Wang Hefu's men.
Wang Hefu's men, holding spears, bows and arrows, surrounded Miao Zhe and others as enemies. This shocked Miao Zhe and his men. They were just here to ask for an explanation and did not carry weapons.
If they were invading the camp with weapons, they would be mutiny and rebellion. But unexpectedly, even if they came naked, they would still be surrounded by Wang Hefu's subordinates with strong bows and spears.
The soldiers under Miaozhe were scared, and Miaozhe himself was so scared that he couldn't help but take a step back.
Wang Hefu walked out of the crowd and asked with a cold face: "Miao Zhe, do you want to rebel!"
