What is the thing that can scare the emperor and the Manchu civil and military who have great power and wisdom in their hands?

In a word, a questionnaire on the current situation of Tokyo residents. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

As a result of the search for the robbers, the court officials were horrified to find that they were all so-called residents from the city of Tokyo.

With a population of more than one million, Tokyo was the largest, most prosperous, and most fascinating city in the world at the time.

Today, Tokyo City is still the world's largest metropolis with a population of more than a million, and the population is only a few hundred thousand fewer than before, but the content of its inhabitants is very different.

A cursory examination revealed that at least half of the population had moved in the past six years or even in the past six months.

And that's not all.

The imperial capital, in this era, there is no household registration restriction, only people with household registration in the imperial capital have the right to live for a long time, and you can come to live if you have money and ability.

The terrible thing is that the new residents are all unscrupulous people from all over the country, such as ruffians, hooligans, scoundrels, gauntrants, gamblers, etc., at least one or two such people are the backbone of each family.

The city of Tokyo is unknowingly filled with countless black and gray gangs, large and small, plus the original ruffian beggar gang, or collusion and mixed together, I don't know how many such dangerous organizations.

There are new residents everywhere, and they basically divide their spheres of influence according to geography, occupy the docks of various urban districts in the unofficial districts, control almost all the middle and lower classes, and even penetrate the upper strata of the economy.

So how did this situation come into being so quickly?

The good people of the Great Song Dynasty were forced to live and were attracted by the legendary pirate empire, and they migrated and defected.

Most of these unscrupulous people who have moved to Tokyo do not work hard, they are lazy to eat, drink, gamble, and have all kinds of drugs, and there are fewer people in the same village who are bullying and extorting them from the same towns, and there is no officialdom to help them engage in other unfounded activities, and there is no other way to make money.

These people can be collectively called gutless bandits, obedient people,

The only guts are to harm the powerless and good people, and in the cowardly Great Song Dynasty, it is this kind of bandit that is the most.

They don't dare or don't want to take refuge in Tian Hu, Wang Qing and other thrilling days when the anti-thieves and robbers cross the battlefield to fight and kill, and they also know that they have no ability to rebel and become rich, and they are all local deflated, they have never seen the world, and they are fleeing around.

You can't live in vain. Before you die, you have to go to Tokyo Paradise to see it for a day.

As a result, the first batch of brave and criminal obedient people from all over the country gathered in the capital, and they were pleasantly surprised to find that the people of the capital were being lost, and newcomers like them who did not have much money on them could also have houses to buy and jobs to work on, and the security of the capital was not as strict as the legend said.

At this time, the mainstream of these people didn't want to engage in crooked ways and seek out the wrong way like in their hometown, but just wanted us to be a glorious Beijinger.

But, a place has a local survival rule.

The rules that people like them, who have become the new lower-class people in the capital, have to abide by are the rules they set for the local disadvantaged people in their hometowns: pay protection fees, and pay tribute to their income.

The local ruffians in the capital have replaced their former social roles, and they have become the targets of oppression and extortion.

At this time, these gutless bandits gradually became familiar with the social situation in the capital, and realized that Tokyo was actually no different from their hometown, the same law of the jungle, the same good and weak people were deceived and humiliated, evil and strong people were rampant in the street market, bullying and dominating the market for nothing, and gambling and other side doors were prevalent, the difference was that Tokyo was a criminal paradise with a lot of money.

It's not a thing, but when you see the reality of Tokyo, what's polite?

People like them are used to being idle for nothing, and they can't stand the boring and endless days of working in Tokyo to make a living, and they are not willing to be trampled on by their local peers.

Isn't the local ruffian just relying on the fact that he has a lot of acquaintances in order to bully Lao Tzu? They also don't have any officialdom background, it's just that it's convenient to pay filial piety to the officials on the ground.

This kind of work, Lao Tzu will also do it, and he has already practiced his experience and skills in his hometown, and it is no worse than his counterparts in Tokyo.

Naturally, they call on their hometown and gather people to form new gangs to fight against Tokyo's local ruffians.

At the beginning, these people didn't dare to make too much trouble, lest they have not yet established a tight relationship with the government in charge of the ground, and they were arrested and questioned for making a big move.

As the gangs became more and more numerous, their power became bigger and bigger, and they had a relationship with the officials of Kaifeng Prefecture, and even with the forbidden army that shocked the capital to maintain law and order.

The bureaucrats and officials of Kaifeng Mansion have been threatened and bought by the new gangs, colluding with each other, and the black bosses are so unhappy that they will call their brothers and sisters, and the people naturally have no way to ask for help, and they are afraid of the revenge of the gangsters, so they can only consider themselves unlucky, and they don't want to leave.

The city of Tokyo has a large population, but how many ruffian forces can there be in Gyeonggi alone, and how can they compete with countless counterparts from all over the country in terms of manpower and strength.

Gradually, the local gangs had to show weakness, bow their heads and give up some territory and interests, carve out a new sphere of influence with the new forces, and negotiate a "friend agreement" to prevent the well water from the river. Some local ruffians with weak power simply collude with the new gangs, and use the convenience of being the head snake of the land to seek identity and greater benefits in the new forces.

Without the restraint of the old gang forces, the "new people" in Tokyo are more and more able to deal with the honest people in the capital, not only seizing houses and robbing the poor and driving away the poor, but also attracting more fellow villagers and fellow people, becoming more and more powerful, and quickly pounce on the relatively wealthy middle and lower class traders, and they are also skillful in grabbing and grabbing, occupying many shops, turning into old brands and new merchants, rapidly upgrading in the money position, and more and more capital to open the road, and the officialdom relationship is directly connected to the important officials of Kaifeng Prefecture and the relevant forbidden army generals.

Yin Cai Mao of Kaifeng Mansion was busy with the turmoil and intrigue of the court situation, mainly focusing on the "big things" planned by Cai Jing, the backer, and he didn't care about the people under his rule, and from time to time he received the great benefits of filial piety below.

The immediate goal of his career is not just Kaifeng Mansion Yin.

He has lofty political ambitions, at least he has to mix with the second-class officials with real power who play a pivotal role, and he is not too young, so he has to hurry up and get money to dredge up the relationship as soon as possible.

The same is true of the Fu Yin. Needless to say, the officials below.

This has resulted in a nest of corruption, coupled with the inaction of the forbidden army. The ground in Tokyo quickly and completely rotted.

The gang of new residents is an ignorant and ignorant people, and they are rampant, and they are becoming more and more emboldened, and they are attacking rich businessmen with conscience who have the ability to make money but lack the official background.

When the conscientious businessmen at the top of the capital's economy had to hurriedly avoid the evil forces, and hurriedly disposed of the capital's family business and quietly fled, Tokyo soon formed the current situation in the capital.

The bigwigs in the capital are all looking at the sky, staring at the above, how can they pay attention to the little things of the officials below, not to mention the lowly businessmen of the grass mustard pigs and sheep.

The complicated court situation, the moody emperor, the fierce infighting, the bigwigs still have to deal with national affairs, and spend some time on entertainment and pastime, so they really don't have the energy to care about miscellaneous matters.

At this time, the women in charge of the powerful families exclaimed: No wonder the food and meat in Tokyo...... It is getting more and more expensive, and even the cost of collecting the toilet in the morning has increased several times. It turned out that it was the new residents from outside who were dominating the lives of all walks of life in Tokyo, and they were manipulating a little bit of price increases to make a profit.

I didn't find out that it was the noble housewives who disdained to bother with these small things in the house, and there were housekeepers to catch them, as long as the people in the house were not corrupt and tricky.

The most important thing is that the elites are corrupt and bribed...... There is money, but there is too much money to spend, and the money strings in the treasury are rotten, and I don't care about the price increase of consumption.

Only the petty officials of the various yamen in Tokyo, who could not benefit from the gangsters, complained bitterly, and although they could make some money from their positions, they could not withstand the pressure of rising prices.

But it was useless for them to call. The officials are too small, and no one has time to deal with their complaints.

These petty officials can't afford to raise enough minions of the hospital, and they don't dare to talk to the evil forces to expose the bad status quo in Tokyo, lest they be hacked, and even if they have the courage to call out, it won't work.

By this time, the remaining old residents of Tokyo were the families of high-ranking officials and nobles, the families of wealthy profiteers, the families of veterans and ruffians who had started families, and the ruffians of the local ruffians.

Tokyo has become a black den of facts, a city of sin.

At this point, the evil forces on the ground cannot be cured by any official who wants to. The prime minister also had to stare and worry.

The city of Tokyo has become a city where more than half of the inhabitants may turn into robbers and gangsters at any time, which makes the emperor and the Manchu civil and military who sit in the crater and enjoy themselves how can they not be frightened to death.

At this moment, news came like a bolt from the blue.

The sailors who were transferred from the capital Jinmingchi to garrison the important towns in the south of the Yangtze River suddenly defected in a big way, and the poor tens of thousands of people fled to less than 1,000.

The main reason for the defection of the navy was that in the capital, he only heard that the pirates were powerful and invincible on the sea, and when he arrived in the coastal towns south of the Yangtze River, he witnessed the vastness and unscrupulousness of the pirates picking up and dropping off immigrants, and then he knew what it meant to be a sea hegemon and what it meant to be unstoppable on the water. With their little strength, and they did not have the advantage of warships, one day those officials of the imperial court decided to exterminate the pirates with a pat on their heads, and they were ordered to have to fight the pirates on the water, which was undoubtedly in vain. can live well, who is especially willing to find death.

This naval army was newly formed, and the main body was recruited from all over the country to recruit young and strong fishermen and peasants who were good at fighting in two fights, and the time was short, the training was tight, and the management was strict, and they had not yet been dyed black into rotten military ruffians in the big dye vat in the capital, and they still maintained a lot of their original goodness and even simplicity. The imperial court was in a hurry to form an army to suppress the pirates. The trolls also don't have a chance to roam Gyeonggi and do evil.

I saw that the pirates were powerful and invincible, and I thought that I was a good person, I didn't do evil, and I was qualified to vote for pirates. So why are you still holding on to the Great Song?

Well, well, the rest goes without saying. During this period of brewing, the incident broke out.

Bai Shizhong's suggestion to transfer this naval army to guard the important coastal defense towns not only facilitates the rapid restoration of Jiangnan rule, but also makes use of the convenience of being close to the sea to train the naval army in actual combat.

And that's not even the scariest of all.

What's worse is that the same disaster happened to the elite of the 100,000 forbidden army that went to deter Jiangnan earlier.

After the new officials took office and the government offices in various parts of Jiangnan slowly resumed their establishment and management, the 100,000 troops began to withdraw from Jiangnan and return to Beijing to strengthen the security of Gyeonggi under the urging of the emperor who felt that the Beijing army was not enough and was always afraid of insecurity, and when they withdrew to the Yangtze River and other major river areas, the army suddenly defected, got on the pirate ship, and ran away with less than 20,000 people in a blink of an eye.

The general who led the team was hanged to death in the chaotic army, and was protected by the pro-army to escape the catastrophe, so frightened that he collapsed to the ground and kept swinging, and it took a long time to recover a little normal, and he collected some remnants of the army with a bitter face. Fortunately, the pirates only cared about transporting the immigrants, did not care about what they did, and did not stop the difficulties, so that the remnants of this frightened bird had the opportunity to cross the river and rush to the capital.

The forbidden army relied on by the capital also defected in a big way, which cost the emperor Zhao Ji's old life, and when he received the report, he was so shocked that he rolled his eyes and fainted on the throne of the dragon chair.

Liang Shizhong was so frightened that he played the pipa with his legs.

If he didn't know that he had no ability, and he didn't have the slightest preparation, he had nowhere to go, if he fled in a hurry, a random strong man and a small force on the road would be able to slaughter him and rob him of all the money he had worked so hard to find, and even the thugs in the capital courtyard he adopted would turn his face and kill him and rob him of all his treasures, he would have the heart to abandon the palace and quickly leave the capital to find a place to hide.

Originally, he was shocked by the bad situation in the capital, but Bai Shizhong, Zhang Bangchang, privy envoys and other bigwigs who could still maintain their composure and confidence in governance with the support of the heavy army also collapsed in fright.

If the Beijing army defects and disperses on a large scale, and there is no armed force to defend it, won't the capital be in chaos and finished?

Da Song is falling?

The power and wealth are going to be empty in the blink of an eye, and all the lives of the family are going to be buried in the rich township of the capital?

When the civil and military dignitaries of the Manchu Dynasty learned the inside information, they were in an uproar and panic. Many of the older ones collapsed. The other officials were not so frightened that they peed their pants on the spot, and they were heroes.

At this time, no matter how hostile they are, no matter how much they want to trample on the calculation and clean up Zhao Gonglian and the officials of the Cangzhao family, they can't take care of this trivial matter.

Where did the money go, whatever. Even if he knew that Zhao Gonglian had accepted this money for rebellion, he couldn't take care of it, and it didn't matter.

The top priority at the moment is to check the forbidden army and hold the capital.

Gao Yu, who was recuperating at home and had not actually let go of military affairs for a day, could not hide the loss of forbidden troops in various parts of Gyeonggi that he had known for a long time.

But this guy knows what to expect, and is not as panicked as other ignorant officials.

He also knew too much about the weakness of the emperor's heart, and at this time once again showed that Gao Taiwei was loyal and brave to serve the country and brave to take on great responsibilities when things were in danger, but in fact he was strong and skinny, regardless of his illness, he went to the court strongly, and slyly reported to the emperor who had finally woken up: "Your Majesty, don't be alarmed." The 300,000 forbidden troops who stayed in Gyeonggi defected, but only tens of thousands of unscrupulous people were lost, and the vast majority of soldiers still served our Great Song Dynasty court loyally and bravely. There is no danger in the capital. Jiangshan is fine. ”

The fact is indeed that only intermittently, under various opportunities, only 30,000 or 40,000 forbidden troops have run. The rest of the forbidden army will not defect, and will still hold the job of the Great Song Forbidden Army.

Gao Yu was very sure of this and was very confident in commanding the army to protect the capital.

Because he knew that the forbidden army that didn't run away was either loyal to the Great Song Dynasty, or a military ruffian who didn't want pirates.
