Chapter 2056 Local tyrants, the emperor is here to protect you! (Thanks to the love beans of history

On April 19th, the eighth year of Chongzhen reign in the Ming Dynasty, a large group of people in black official robes had gathered at Puzikou, Jiangbei, Nanjing. Pavilions for people to rest and colorfully painted archways to support the scene had been built according to the highest standards. From the northwest

On both sides of the wide official road extending from Chuzhou in front, there are posts every five steps and sentries every ten steps. They are all Nanjing soldiers wearing helmets and armor and fully armed!

Nanjing was the capital of the Ming Dynasty, with a team of six ministries and nine ministers, as well as a group of nobles who had lived in the capital for generations, so there was no shortage of greetings and send-offs in the officialdom. Sometimes, in order to show grandeur, senior officials in Nanjing would

They would also take a boat across the river to Puzikou to greet distinguished guests from Beijing. So the scene at Puzikou today is not particularly uncommon. However, when officials and distinguished officials from Nanjing City are welcoming and sending off, they rarely use it.

A large number of soldiers from the Nanjing Camp came out of the city to create a scene.

Even if the powerful Nanjing Military Minister and Counselor, the Nanjing garrison eunuchs and the Nanjing left-behind dignitaries went to the riverside to welcome guests, they would not dispatch a large number of Nanjing soldiers to fill the scene.

This is not because the public security around Nanjing has always been good. Except for being harassed by a group of bold Japanese pirates in the early years, it has been peaceful for more than 200 years. It is because the elite soldiers in the Nanjing camp are better than those in Beijing.

The soldiers and generals in the Beijing camp are still difficult to rectify.

If the Beijing camp says this again, it will be under the eyes of the emperor, and they will be taken out from time to time for rectification.

Moreover, since the Tumubao Incident, the Ming Dynasty's northern frontier has become increasingly troubled, and soldiers from the Beijing Camp will occasionally be sent to the front line to fight against the Northern and Eastern Lu, so they can't be too bad.

The Nanjing Jingying Camp was a very poor army. During the Chongzhen period, the main force of the Nanjing Jingying Camp was still the Nanjing Garrison Department controlling the Nanjing garrison officers and soldiers in shifts.

In addition, there are two additional troops known as the Nanjing Shenji Battalion and the Chihe Battalion.

However, both the squad troops and the front troops were equally poor. Before Zhu Xieyuan, Xu Yunzhen, and Pang Tianshou put in a lot of effort, the Nanjing armies' vacancies and occupations always accounted for more than 90% of the book strength! There was still another 10%.

In reality, it is also a pretentious army with little training and little chance of going into battle to kill the enemy.

Although these old Nanjing soldiers are very bad, they can't stand up to the fact that they have a backing!

The Nanjing Jingying camp, whether it is the squad or front troops, basically comes from the garrison under the Nanjing Garrison Department. And the garrison under the Nanjing Garrison Department is the private residence of a group of Nanjing nobles. It is difficult for the military headquarters in Beijing to handle them in Nanjing.

The nobles and nobles are all old ministers of Jianwen! Aren’t the dozens of guards under the Nanjing garrison just the oil and water given to them by Emperor Yongle? What’s wrong with them if they eat a little? We really have to be like Qi Jiguang and train the troops to be invincible. Beijing

Can my long live master be able to sleep?

But the Nanjing soldiers who showed up at Puzikou today surprised the merchants who often traveled on both sides of the Yangtze River. In addition to being surprised, these well-informed people had to inquire about each other.

"Where did these soldiers come from? Why do they look so energetic?"

"Are they the emperor's soldiers in front of the tent? The soldiers in front of the tent have already arrived in Nanjing?"

"It must be the soldiers in front of the tent. The soldiers in Nanjing City are not so elite. They can't do anything except eat and make trouble."

"Thank God, the emperor's soldiers have finally arrived in Nanjing. There is no need to rob everything, right? There are checkpoints everywhere in Nanjing these days, and there are interrogations everywhere. Since April, there has been a curfew. It's hard to pass the time."

"No way! This group of thieves is too bold. They actually dared to sneak into the Nanjing City Railway sign and sang "Welcome the King of Chuang""

"Yes, there are so many officials and soldiers in Nanjing, but they still can't hold them down. It's so incompetent!"

"Alas, we Nanjing people have no way to survive."

Yes, Nanjing people are having a hard time! The big bandit Gao Yingxiang is still recuperating on the Dabie Mountains, but notices of "Welcome the King" appear in several places in the inner and outer cities of Nanjing at intervals.

City gate!

And every late at night, there are always people in Nanjing singing the song "Welcome the King of Chuang" in Shaanxi dialect!

This is incredible! The intruders have already sneaked into Nanjing City. It is obvious that they want to cooperate inside and outside when Gao Yingxiang comes to kill!

Can Zhu Xieyuan, Xu Yunzhen and Pang Tianshou not be nervous?

The intruders came to their door and sang!

If they hadn't been nervous, Gao Yingxiang's people might have taken away the seeds.

And if the biggest man in Nanjing gets nervous, the Nanjing army and people will not be able to live happily. Among these three people, there is such a ruthless person as Zhu Xieyuan!

At that time, Zhu Xieyuan held the official position of left-wing governor, and assumed the responsibility of governor when She Chongming suddenly attacked (the governor and general of Sichuan at that time were all killed by She Chongming in Chongqing by a sudden rebel). He defended Chengdu and blocked the siege of She Chongming's army.

, and also saved the province of Sichuan for the Ming Dynasty. At that time, Chongqing had been occupied by She Chongming. If Chengdu was lost again, the consequences would be disastrous!

Now that he has great power, how can he tolerate intruders causing trouble under his nose?

But no matter how they search, set up traffic jams, or impose curfews, people will still sing "Welcome the King of Chuang" every night in Nanjing!

The song "Welcome to the King of Chuang" not only disturbed Zhu Xieyuan's dreams, but also frightened several princes who were "in charge". Later, three princes, including King Fu, King Dai, and King Qin, joined forces with more than a dozen princes and counties to come together.

The Nanjing Ministry of War asked Zhu Xieyuan to "save his life".

This is simply a slap in Zhu Xieyuan’s old face! He wants to go down in history with his military merits, but he must not lose his security if he comes late!

So the old man had no choice but to toss around inside and outside the city of Nanjing, hoping to catch the "intruders" who had sneaked in. At the same time, he stepped up the rectification of the Nanjing capital camp and got used to it. There was also a group of Nanjing nobles protecting the Nanjing capital camp soldiers, which was considered a fall.

Blood mold.

He was almost forced to death by Zhu Xieyuan, Xu Yunzhen, Pang Tianshou and other three traitors!

In the past, their vacancies could be more than 90%, but now they are forced to less than 60%!

In the past, less than 10% of the actual soldiers received little training, but now more than 40% of the actual soldiers are trained every day, and the three traitors have made many excessive demands.

For example, wear armor when training!

Wear armor? How to wear it? You can’t even do it

Moreover, the armor is very heavy and not very breathable. It is really torture when the weather is hot!

Another example is to hit the target in archery!

This is really too much! If you can’t pull the bow, how can you hit the target?

Also, the gun must be fired with live ammunition! It must be filled with enough gunpowder according to the standard, and of course, it must hit the target!

This is really killing people!

Unwilling to be forced to death by Zhu Xieyuan, Xu Yunzhen, Pang Tianshou and others, the Nanjing soldiers even launched a mutiny in late March. Oh, it can't be considered a mutiny.

The army and the Sichuan soldiers recruited by Zhu Xieyuan were suppressed.

However, this fuss made the Nanjing gentry and wealthy merchants who originally had no hope for the Nanjing camp troops really look forward to the elite soldiers of the Ming Emperor!

The emperor's elite troops can go deep into Mobei and sweep away the Eastern captives. Isn't it more reliable than the army here in Nanjing?

People's discussions spread to Zhu Xieyuan, who was standing outside the Puzikou Pier waiting to be picked up. The old man also had some knowledge, but even if he didn't, he could still know what these Nanjing people were talking about.

This group of people just don’t believe that the elite soldiers of Nanjing’s Beijing Camp are actually the elite soldiers standing guard outside Puzikou Pier today. They are all trained soldiers of Nanjing’s Beijing Camp!

But the people here in Nanjing don’t believe it!

They are all looking forward to the Ming Emperor's Heavenly Soldiers. The Heavenly Soldiers are powerful, but the Heavenly Soldiers will charge protection fees!

In other words, the heavenly soldiers are here to collect protection fees!

Zhu Xieyuan had already heard the news, saying that Zhu Youjian had brought 100,000 heavenly soldiers this time, which cost a lot, so the small amount of taxes paid by Nanzhili in the past was not enough, and more money had to be added!

Increase it to at least 40 million

Just as Zhu Xieyuan was thinking of this, the rumble of horse hooves could be heard from far and near. He saw dozens of cavalry galloping towards him. On the back of the horse were men with loud voices. As they galloped, they shouted loudly: "Long live the horse."

I am coming with 100,000 troops, so the people in the southeast can feel at ease."
