Chapter 100: Exit at Night
Wu Mengming foreheadd, a little embarrassed, and then said: "Gonggong Chang is known as the first fist and foot in the imperial city, and his prestige is famous, not only the eunuchs and palace maids in the inner court are like thunder, but also the pro-guard army is also well known, and the Jinyi guard is also on an errand in the palace, how can I, as a commander, not know about it."
said and smiled at Chang Yu.
It's this laugh, Chang Yu understands, it's a kind of laugh that you understand, and it's all unspoken.
Chang Yu finally understood at this moment that he had been being watched outside the palace in the past few days, no wonder the tracking methods were so superb, it turned out to be Jinyiwei.
Wu Mengming has no reason to follow him, even if he is prestigious, but there is only one person who can move the brocade guard, so the big boss surfaced, Chang Yu couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, the royal act, and it really deserved its reputation. It's child's play to be with you like a tiger!
Thinking in his heart, he hugged Wu Mengming Yaoyao, this thing is quite benevolent, and he clicked on him.
The weather is pretty good today, although there is wind and knives, but there is also sunshine, but Chang Yu really can't stand the cold of this era, even if he wants to ride a horse and gallop at the moment, but he still curls up in the car to warm up, and he simply falls asleep without saying anything all the way.
But Chang Yu still miscalculated.
In his opinion, this team of men and women is all cavalry, and even the silver chariot is driven by two horses, and the weight is not heavy, although it does not run all the time, but it runs and walks to Changping for a distance of about 50 kilometers, and it should be able to reach it at ten o'clock at noon.
However, these fifty kilometers actually reached more than two o'clock in the afternoon, and at this time he realized that he had overestimated the speed of the cavalry.
The limit speed of Chinese horses in the Song Dynasty gold medal system is reflected in 200 to 250 kilometers a day and night, but this is not the limit speed of the post station, the post station has to change to horses every distance, always maintain the best speed, that speed is amazing, the most famous of which is the ancient Persian messenger, the Persian post station is about 22 kilometers, the famous Royal Road is 2400 kilometers long, and it takes 90 days to walk, but the messenger of the Persian Empire ran in only seven days, with an average of 350 kilometers a day and a night.
But these are post stations, and the cavalry marching to fight is out of reach of this, and in the Anshi Rebellion, Tang Xuanzong ordered "the rear army of 2,000 people and the flying dragon stable horses from the prince". The prince (Li) "galloped for more than 300 miles at night, more than half of the soldiers and equipment were lost, and there were only a few hundred." It can scatter most of the royal guard cavalry, which should be the maximum speed of the cavalry, but this speed is to escape, and the troops are scattered, which is not the speed of marching.
In the battle of Cao Cao of the Three Kingdoms to pursue Liu Bei, "Cao will chase after him with 5,000 fine horses, travel more than 300 miles in one day and one night, and reach Changsaka in Dangyang." This is a super-level performance of the Central Plains cavalry without stirrups
……………………………………………………
And so on and so on in the past dynasties of the marching case, the cavalry expedited march day and night is only about 300 miles, although Chang Yu's team belongs to the light load, but there are twenty large carts, unwilling to be able to run at any time, dragging his feet, so that the time taken far exceeds his surprise, which makes him very dissatisfied.
From more than eight o'clock in the morning to Changping in one breath, it took more than six hours, and the people who were still walking were tired, dissatisfied, but also helpless, looking at Changping City Changyu or ordered to rest on the spot for half an hour.
People get off the horse, the horse gets off the saddle, Luo Tang and others have already boiled snow for water, more than 30 of them are equivalent to the orderly soldiers of this team, of course, at this time they also probably know how awesome their identity as a housekeeper is, although they don't know clearly, but being able to command such a team is naturally not an ordinary person, but I think how awesome the master should be.
Chang Yu and Wu Mengming got out of the car, stood in the wilderness and stretched their waists to chat, looking at Changping City not far away, thoughtfully, the soldiers had already dismounted to relieve their muscles or relieve themselves, or walked around each other and chatted.
Only Chang Yu's subordinates formed an independent group, nesting together and not walking around with the Jinyi guards and the guards of the mansion army, one by one silently eating dry food, occasionally looking at those Jinyi guards with a look of disdain, even if the other party had a mocking expression.
You must know that when Chang Yu scolded Zhu Chunchen in the Chengguo Mansion before, he praised those eunuchs and sages to Wenneng Dingguo, and Wu Neng Anbang's passionate words had already spread throughout the palace, making the eunuchs proud.
In particular, these eunuch soldiers are even more confident, and Chang Yu always brainwashes them from time to time when he sees the right time, so these three hundred people have an inferiority complex and are replaced by increasing self-confidence.
A cup of hot water was in his stomach, and his body warmed up a lot, Chang Yu immediately ordered to continue to march, and at this time, a team of people rushed from Changping City. This is to verify, after all, it has been out of the army for no reason, and there has been no news before.
Obviously, Chongzhen did another unprecedented thing this time.
According to the convention, whether it is to go out to the army or to pay the army, all those who use the army to travel must go through the military department and the governor's office of the five armies.
To put it simply, the difference between these two departments is that the Governor's Office of the Five Armies has the right to command troops but does not have the right to transfer troops, and the Military Department has the right to transfer troops but does not have the right to command troops, so it stands to reason that Chang Yu's trip this time should be mobilized by the Ministry of War to mobilize designated personnel, and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies will travel. Then release the talisman to inform along the way, which is convenient for the march.
But this time it was Chongzhen's words, everything was done by Chang Yu, and he went out of Beijing with such a big lama, and at this time, it was estimated that the Ministry of War and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies were still in the dark, and it was conceivable that those who went back to get the news were incompetent, and the first-class cabinet was going to smash Chongzhen again.
After verification, Chang Yu's team did not enter Changping, and continued to march in the northwest direction around the city.
All the way to the north, it was already dark when we arrived at Juyong Pass.
Juyong Pass starts from the boundary of Huanghua Town in Xishuiyukou in the east for 90 miles, the boundary of Bauhinia Pass in Jianziyukou in the west is 120 miles, the boundary of Wanping County in Yuheyi is 60 miles in the south, and the boundary of Tumuyi Xinbao is 120 miles in the north. Counting from the most difficult end, it is one hundred and twenty miles away from Beijing.
As the throat of the capital, this north gate has always been heavily guarded, and there are strict regulations on entry and exit, not to mention that Chang Yu's team does not have any customs clearance documents from the Ministry of War, so it is quite troublesome to verify, at this time, Wu Mengming will come forward, and the signboard of Jinyiwei will be opened wherever he goes.
Chang Yu naturally wouldn't come forward for this kind of thing, and of course he didn't have any effect when he came forward, so he ended quietly, and the team paused in the customs to rest, and he got out of the car.
The cold wind outside the car entered the knife, like a lion's roar, Chang Yu wrapped his cotton clothes tightly and glanced at the team, his eyes stayed on the towering city tower, Juyongguan was like a beast squatting silently in the dark night, looking down proudly.
North Gate, North Gate, Chang Yu looked up at the monster in the dark, and whispered silently in his mouth, he didn't know who the general of Ju Yongguan was at the moment, but he knew that Tang Tong would jump to garrison soon, and he also knew that he had to surrender Li Zicheng under the betrayal of Du Zhizhi, a garbage, so the gate was opened and the thieves entered Beijing.
Eunuchs are hateful! Chang Yu seemed to have forgotten that he was actually a eunuch, and suddenly glanced at the people next to him, making Chunxiang and the others inexplicable, and they were a little panicked.
Wu Mengming's Jinyi guard command signboard is a good envoy, after the report is up, the town guard general also personally received, personally beckoned the soldiers to open the door to send the letter, Chang Yu glanced at it from a distance, of course he didn't know, but he knew that this person's military rank was naturally not low, after all, as the northwest gate of the capital, the specifications of Juyongguan were higher, and its strength was usually maintained at more than 1,000 people, and from the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the town guard general was set up, and the general guarded the general from the general army, the deputy general soldier, the staff general, and the deputy general soldier adjusted the specifications several times, but it was never lower than the level of the general.
