Chapter 1484: Shocking Change (3)

His Majesty the Emperor sat on the throne expressionlessly, and the ministers were also in a daze, everyone was waiting for the news of the elimination of the rebellion outside. In the silence of the www.biquge.info of the Pen, Fun, and Pavilion, there was a sudden sound of stumbling, not from outside the temple, but from inside the temple.

With the sound of footsteps, an old chamberlain, that is, a eunuch, rushed in with a panicked face, and because of the sudden intersection of his feet in his eagerness, he fell to the ground, and he did not bother to get up, and even crawled to the emperor.

Seeing this palace manager look like this, the emperor and the ministers were shocked.

The head of the palace is just a small leader in charge of the emperor's bedroom, but his power is greater than that of the palace manager, because all the secrets of the empire are hidden in the emperor's bedroom.

Without waiting for the emperor to speak, the head of the palace said eagerly: "Your Majesty! The Hidden Soldier Pavilion has been opened! ”

"What!" Everyone present knew what the Hidden Soldier Pavilion was, and they all exclaimed with no faces.

The Hidden Soldier Pavilion, as the name suggests, is the place where the soldiers are collected, but it is not a collector, but a place to collect the information of the imperial soldiers' families, in other words, it is a place to store hostage information, this place is to ensure the loyalty of the soldiers to the empire, and to ensure that careerists cannot win over the military rebellion!

Now this place has been opened? As long as this place is destroyed, it is equivalent to losing the hostages who threaten the soldiers of the whole empire, as long as the soldiers and their acquaintances do not say anything, then no one will know who their family members are, that is, they can have no worries and can rebel unscrupulously! When the emperor got the news, his whole body was shaky, he gasped violently, stammered and said, "Go... Secret Guard... Give me it..."

The dozen or so black-clothed people who didn't know where they were hiding suddenly appeared and disappeared after saluting.

Such a strange performance surprised most people, and they were even more secretly frightened, His Majesty the Emperor's personal guard was actually called a secret guard? And he still has such unpredictable abilities? It's really amazing, it seems that you have to be more careful in the future.

And a few loyal to the country, such as the prime minister and the marshal, are anxious and worried, the concerns of the imperial soldiers have disappeared, can the empire still be able to effectively control so many soldiers?

Who did this? Prince? Unlikely, they know that they have lost the Tibetan Arsenal, even if they fight for the throne, what can they do? According to the principle of conspiracy and profit, only the feudal officials of various places, the heads of the legions, and the great nobles of the whole country would act in this way, because then they could firmly control the troops in their hands.

Alas, the Empire is in an eventful time. The marshal and Cheng glanced at each other, and both saw the bitterness in each other's eyes, so they could only shake their heads astringently.

His Majesty the Emperor didn't wait long, and his personal guards brought back a pile of ashes. The ashes already represented everything, looking at the ashes, His Majesty the Emperor stretched out his hand with a dull expression, and then rolled his eyes and fell.

There was another burst of chickens and dogs, but unfortunately this time the imperial doctor was not so skillful, and could only give an answer that the emperor was in a coma and needed to recuperate. Under the command of the prime minister, the evening dynasty ended, and everyone scattered home.

Although the prime minister and the marshal warned everyone not to spread the news, it was only dawn that the information of the Tibetan Arsenal had been turned to ashes and the emperor was in a coma in a hurry spread throughout the imperial capital, and then spread to the entire empire at an incredible speed.

Generally, people who know this news will only have the idea of whether the emperor will die and who the new emperor will be. However, those who knew what the information of the Hidden Arsenal was, especially those who held military power, began to bubble in their hearts.

And Zhao Hu came to the provincial capital when this news spread throughout the empire.

Entering the boundary of the provincial capital, he immediately found the people of Jinwen City, who occupied a wasteland and were ready to build a town. Seeing his own soldiers, the people immediately cheered, but then Zhao Hu took the surviving subordinates and sent the relics and ashes of the martyrs back to their families, and immediately thousands of families mourned, crying and grieving.

After being busy, Zhao Hu had the opportunity to ask Sun Jie what happened, but unfortunately Sun Jie couldn't inquire about other secrets, and only knew that the people of Jinwen City were rejected by other cities all the way, and finally had to come to the provincial capital.

Although the provincial government accepted, it was only allocated a piece of wasteland and left to their own devices.

As for the news of the invasion of the mountain bandits, no one paid any attention to it, but found that all the regular troops were gathered in the provincial capital, and the governors of the county governments also rushed back. Then there was a long meeting in the provincial capital where the military and government were separated, and the meeting has not yet ended.

After Zhao Hu heard this, before he could speak, Zhou Wen was very dissatisfied and preemptively said to Sun Jie: "What are you doing?" Why can't you even get any information about 3,000 people with you? It's useless! ”

Sun Jie was about to explain, when the guards suddenly came in and reported: "My lord, the division commander has sent a messenger to ask you to go to the division headquarters to attend the meeting immediately." ”

"Okay." Zhao Hu replied.

Zhao Hu took Zhou Wen, Sun Jie and several other cronies to the division headquarters in the city.

There was already a colonel officer waiting at the door, he saw Zhao Hu saluting him, he was stunned for a moment, and after returning the salute, he quickly said to Zhao Hu enthusiastically: "Major Zhao Hu, right?" The division commander has been waiting for you for a long time, please come in. ”

When I walked into the gate, I immediately saw several lieutenants staring at his group tightly, and everyone understood the rules of such a place, and they all unsheathed their swords and handed them to these lieutenants.

The colonel who was waiting next to him smiled slightly and continued to lead the way, and when he came to a room with two majors guarding the door and closing the door, the colonel stopped again, Zhou Wen and Sun Jie and others all knew each other and stepped aside, and Zhao Hu entered the room under the leadership of the colonel.

Zhao Hu walked into the room, and what came into his eyes was a room full of officers, Zhao Hu glanced slightly, and the lowest rank present was colonel, fourteen, ten colonels, and five major generals. Seeing this, Zhao Hu was taken aback, the nearly thirty people present were all army commanders, and none of those chief of staff and military police chiefs were present.

And Zhao Hu was also very sensitive to find that among so many people, the most arrogant demeanor was not those major generals, but the school officials, among the school officers, the five major generals not only did not have the demeanor of their bosses, but seemed a little restrained by the angry little daughter-in-law.

Seeing Zhao Hu appear, the officers present were obviously stunned, and most of the eyes were fixed on the rank of major on Zhao Hu's shoulder.

A colonel near the door frowned and was about to open his mouth to scold, but the major general of the Fifth Brigade came forward and stopped with a smile: "Don't make a fuss, he is Zhao Hu, our own person." ”

"Hello sir." Zhao Hu saluted.

This colonel, who is at least middle-aged or older, squeezed out a false smile when he heard this, and waved his hand a little unsmilingly: "It turns out that you are Zhao Hu, you are welcome, everyone is your own person, I am the wing commander of the Fourth Wing of the Fifth Brigade." After saying that, he didn't sign up, and just nodded to the commander of the fifth brigade, and left naturally.

Zhao Hu was obviously stunned when he saw the other party's performance like this, it was normal for the captain of the fourth wing to be rude to himself, but why did he dare to treat his direct boss like this? It is a violation of military regulations to quit without consent.

Seeing Zhao Hu's expression, the brigade commander smiled slightly bitterly and said in a low voice: "Don't be surprised, after the incident in the imperial capital, the wing commander below who held the military power immediately became a lot more arrogant. ”

"The Imperial Capital Incident?" Zhao Hu was stunned again, he had just come back, Sun Jie was recruited here before he had time to report the situation, and he didn't know what happened at all.

"You don't know? It is the incident of the burning of the household registration data of the soldiers in the imperial capital, after these materials are burned, it is equivalent to losing the handle to threaten the soldiers, because the empire is so big and there are so many soldiers, once they lose their household registration data, even if they rebel, it will not bring trouble to their families. The brigade commander said.

"Well, even if the data is destroyed, why not write it again? Is it so exaggerated? ”

Zhao Hu was still stunned, he couldn't understand that the soldier's household registration and birth information was missing, so the soldier dared to rebel openly? If this could happen, wouldn't the centuries-old rule of the empire be false?

"Everyone knows this, but the vast majority of generals are reluctant to rewrite the data." The brigade commander lowered his voice.

"In fact, it is useless for the division commander and the corps commander to be willing, you have also seen the performance of the fourth wing commander just now, and these officers who really control the troops will not be willing to rewrite the materials.

"You must know that after losing the household registration restrictions, the soldiers under them are now their private soldiers, and they are the capital to compete for power, how can they lift a stone and shoot themselves in the foot!"

Zhao Hu was speechless when he heard this, the world's largest empire was burned because of the military and soldier's household registration information, and the real power officers below had different intentions? The Empire's deterrent power is too bad, right?

The brigade commander didn't know what was going on, and continued with a look of confidence in Zhao Hu: "You don't have to be surprised, nobles like you who live in the imperial capital don't know what is going on.

"If it weren't for the system of military household registration and garrisoning in other places, which ensured that the soldiers did not dare to rebel for fear of affecting their families, the entire empire would have been torn apart and in chaos decades ago."

Hearing this, Zhao Hu looked at the brigade commander in surprise. How could he say that? Could it be that the Empire has an unusual hidden danger? Why doesn't your own intelligence system have any clues?

However, thinking that both he and those secret guards were outsiders, not powerful people born and raised in the empire, and it was very normal for them to be unclear about the secrets of the empire, so they listened attentively to the words of the brigade commander. It's just that Zhao Hu is a little strange, his brigade commander doesn't look like a person who talks a lot, why is he so enthusiastic about explaining to himself?
