Chapter 224: Qin Jun
The rebellion in Hangzhou rose suddenly.
According to legend, the reason was that the imperial court released the first batch of scholars in Hangzhou who could go to the southwest to give lectures, and the scholars on the list were very happy and celebrated at home.
When setting off firecrackers, he accidentally flew off the roof of the thatched house, and because the weather was dry, the fire suddenly broke out, and it immediately intensified.
If that's all there is, it's not a big deal.
But it was very coincidental that the fire in Hangzhou had just started, and when the garrison commander Yang Yan sent his own troops to take the water from the canal outside the city to extinguish the fire, the soldiers of the nine battalions in the city suddenly took advantage of the chaos to make a fuss.
Officers and men making trouble are just a good excuse to talk about and cause chaos.
In fact, this echo was so great that it even reached the court that the disturbance was no different from the rebellion of the officers and soldiers, who totaled more than 30,000.
These rebels burned, killed and looted in Hangzhou, and quickly looted the market.
Some time ago, the officers and men who were still conscientiously defending the city turned into heinous bandits in the blink of an eye, and the people of Hangzhou avoided them and suffered heavy losses.
Even the branch offices of the East Factory and the Jinyi Guard Supervision Department in Hangzhou were smashed by the rebels, and most of the factory guards died in battle while guarding the branch offices.
A small number of people took advantage of the chaos to disguise themselves on the boats, went up the canal, and arrived at the Beijing Division, and informed the civil and military ministers of the Beijing Division of the news as quickly as possible.
This is the first time since the Emperor of the Apocalypse succeeded to the throne that such a serious salary of officers and soldiers has been compromised, and the stakes are very high, and Emperor Longxing is also expected by the ministers.
Early in the morning, the little eunuchs of the direct palace were still sweeping the corridor, and they saw the Emperor of the Apocalypse turning around the corner, and went straight to the Xinuan Pavilion.
When Zhu Youxiao came to Xinuan Pavilion, the eunuchs saw that his face was gloomy, his sword eyebrows were deep, and his eyes like autumn water really contained a clear water.
In the past few days, it has been rainy and rainy, and under the gray sky, the supreme ruler of the empire is also irritable due to various affairs.
The people did not dare to speculate, nor did they dare to say, they did not have the courage.
The palace people of the direct hall had to stand silently on both sides, listening to the footsteps of the Emperor of the Apocalypse and gradually stepping into the Xinuan Pavilion, and they were relieved.
Zhu Youxiao walked to the imperial case, took a sip of cold tea that the eunuch had not had time to replace, and before he could sit down, he heard a sound of footsteps in the corridor.
Zhu Youxiao frowned and looked over.
The little eunuch on the side, who was supposed to be responsible for changing the tea in time, saw the emperor's gaze, but he knelt on the ground with a "poof", begging for mercy.
This unexplained begging for mercy made Zhu Youxiao confused, so he waved his hand casually and ordered him to retreat.
Wei Zhongxian waved away the people gathered in the palace of the Zhidian Palace, and at the same time raised the music in his hand and smiled at the Emperor of the Apocalypse:
"Master, good news, Sun Chuanting is training in Yulin, and he has some eyebrows."
Zhu Youxiao raised his eyebrows, and finally had some good news, but he didn't show much joy, and only said lightly:
"Read it to me, forget it, show it to me!"
Wei Zhongxian's face turned pale at first, but after hearing the emperor's timely change of words, he smiled again and handed over the song to the emperor respectfully.
"Shaanxi Yulin military deputy envoy Sun Chuanting played:
On the day he arrived in Yulin, he kept in mind the holy entrustment and was delayed in military affairs. Now it has formed a brave and warlike army of 3,000, because the children of the army are taken from Qin, so it is called the Shaanxi army.
Hearing about the war rebellion in Hangzhou, Yang Yan was martyred, and the ministers were heartbroken. Now that the Shaanxi army has been completed, he should serve His Majesty and serve the imperial court.
The minister asked him to lead the Shaanxi army to Hangzhou to quell the rebellion, arrest the rebellious party, and investigate the truth. ”
Looking at this recital, Zhu Youxiao's irritability on his face gradually dissipated, turned dull, and soon became a little happy.
"Loyalty—"
"The old slave is here."
Wei Zhongxian hurriedly took a few steps forward and turned his ear sideways.
"This Sun Chuanting is really a pillar of the country!"
"Last year, he invited himself to Yulin Town, originally I still thought that there are many generals in Yulin Town who have been in office for generations, and those high-minded and arrogant generals, which of their ancestors are famous generals with outstanding military achievements, and he is a civil official, and he does not live in the town."
"This time, it seems that I am arrogant and self-defeating, Sun Baigu's talent, not only in training..."
When Wei Zhongxian heard this, he felt a little mixed in his heart.
This time he recommended Sun Chuanting for the sake of the country and the emperor, but in fact, Wei Zhongxian and Sun Chuanting have always had a disagreement, and the latter was more than once ashamed to insult him, a powerful factory official, when he was a member of the Ministry of Rites last year.
The purpose of recommending Sun Chuanting was to please the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and it was also to recommend talents to the imperial court who could survey and pacify the chaos.
But when he heard that Sun Chuanting was reused, and even let the emperor praise him so much, Wei Zhongxian still regretted it a little, but at this point, he could only laugh.
I hope that this Sun Chuanting will become famous in the future, and he will not forget the grace of today's recommendation!
"Yes, Emperor, Sun Chuanting trained in Yulin Town, not only governed those arrogant generals well, but also led the team to fight several times, exterminating many local bandits and horse thieves."
"This is the military exploits of Sun Chuanting's Shaanxi army in the first year of the Apocalypse, please take a look."
Wei Zhongxian, with contradictory thoughts, presented Sun Chuanting's military exploits to the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and Zhu Youxiao couldn't wait to take it, and he was overjoyed when he saw it.
This Sun Chuanting is simply a heart-boosting medicine given to Daming by history!
In February of the first year of the Apocalypse, Sun Chuanting recruited 3,000 soldiers in Yulin Town, not to be a disciple of the sect, but only to choose honest farmers who were farming.
In June, in the first battle of the Shaanxi army, they destroyed a den of bandits, cut 500 ranks, killed two people, and suffered 18 casualties.
At this time, the Shaanxi army did not have vehicle formation tactics.
Until the middle of July, in the field with the horse gang to take over, the leader can not take care of the tail, Sun Chuanting suddenly felt that the official army field battle is insufficient, so he studied Qi Jiguang's military book overnight, and finally created a car formation.
That is, the chariot is the array, the enclosure is the city, the big array, supplemented by sharp firearms, the field formation is like a hedgehog in the battle, can be attacked and defended, and is especially good at facing the impact of the cavalry.
Since then, Sun Chuanting personally trained the Shaanxi army, using local horse bandits and bandits to train hard in the car formation, which took more than a load, and finally trained a Shaanxi army that suppressed bandits and almost did not lose a single member.
The Shaanxi Army, which had just been established for a year, was able to show such a record at this time, and at a time when the national guards were eroded and the armaments were slack, it was like a bright lamp, illuminating the entire Ming Dynasty and Zhu Youxiao's heart.
Sun Chuanting's name began to appear on the pages of history from then on.
"Good!"
Zhu Youxiao said a few hellos while watching, and his heart was refreshed, which can be seen that seeing the emperor so happy, the surrounding palace people also relaxed and smiled.
"Passed the decree, promoted Sun Chuanting to the governor of Zhejiang, added the right attendant of the military department, and led the military horses of the headquarters to Hangzhou immediately to quell the military rebellion, purge the remaining party, and strictly investigate the connection between arson and chaos!"
Wei Zhongxian sighed in his heart, and still said:
"The old slave commands."
"Wait-" As soon as he turned around, he heard the Emperor of the Apocalypse call behind him, adding: "Sun Chuanting's department, give the name: Qin Jun!" ”
