The southern suburbs of the capital, Fengtai camp.

After receiving Emperor Jingtai's order, Yu Qian, the secretary of the military department, mobilized people to go to the Gyeonggi garrison camp.

According to Yu Qian's idea, this time he planned to scatter and mix all the soldiers and horses in the capital and the surrounding areas, and at the same time remove as much as possible the civilian forces and the forces of Emperor Jingtai and Emperor Taishang, so that the Gyeonggi garrison would completely become a sword in the hands of the warriors.

Only in this way can the forces of the DPRK and China not dare to easily spread the struggle to the army when they are fighting, because no one can control the Gyeonggi garrison, and once they act rashly, they will be crushed!

However, when Yu Qian rushed to the camp to inspect the soldiers and horses of each regiment and battalion, Yu Qian was very shocked and disappointed.

The morale of the soldiers and horses in all regiments and battalions was low, and many soldiers were listless and perfunctory when they were inspected, and even many generals were like this.

When the army was assembled, it was also dragging its feet, although on the whole, the Gyeonggi garrison was fairly well-trained, but it had nothing to do with the word elite.

Yu Qian finished reviewing the army with a straight face, and then angrily came to the Chinese army with a group of Gyeonggi generals.

As soon as everyone entered the big tent, Yu Qian shouted loudly: "How are you all soldiers!" The imperial court handed over the hundreds of thousands of troops in Gyeonggi to your command, and you were so slack, and the morale of the army was lost by you! ”

The generals looked at Yu Qian, who was angry, and they didn't dare to speak, but everyone's faces were unconvinced, and even a few short-tempered generals were a little angry.

Yu Qian also saw it in his eyes, so he immediately pointed to a general and said, "You say! How did you bring the soldiers! ”

The general was also bold, and immediately clenched his fists and said: "Qi Xianxian!" Our Gyeonggi garrison has always been unremittingly trained, and the soldiers are also stationed in the place with all their heart, and there is no slackness! ”

"How did that army become like this! After the three drums, there are still tens of thousands of soldiers in the Chinese army who have not been assembled? Tell me for yourselves, if I were a marching law, how many heads would you have! ”

The general's face turned red, and then he said, "Soldier Constitution! We really didn't slack off, but the soldiers were not angry, so they were a little perfunctory to the orders of the imperial court! ”

Yu Qian was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then said, "Hmph! How dare you say it! Then tell me, why are the soldiers angry! ”

"Bingxian! Previously, the civil fort was defeated, and the imperial court lost its soldiers, but the bereavement of the fallen soldiers was delayed, and finally it was delayed for several months before it was issued one after another. ”

"Then we defended the Jingshi, and under our bloody battle, the Jingshi was saved. But the ministers of the DPRK and China are busy fighting for power and profit, today this lord will interfere in military affairs, tomorrow the lord will come to point fingers, everyone wants to insert a foot in the army, but the rewards of the soldiers have never been settled, if it were not for the military constitution still thinking of me, let me wait for some rewards, it is estimated that now hundreds of thousands of soldiers will be admonished! ”

How could Yu Qian not understand when he heard this?

After the defeat of Tumubao, the imperial court struggled, not only to guard against the Warat army that could kill the city at any time, but also to mobilize reinforcements from all walks of life, so it was a little late to compensate the dead.

This is quite excusable, but later the rewards for the soldiers were never issued, and it was really wrong with the court!

After winning the battle against the Wara army, the Korean Chinese officials began to compete for power and profit, especially the repeated suppression of the military attachés of the DPRK and China, and many high-ranking civilian officials began to frequently send people to criticize the Gyeonggi garrison, and even some began to call out the generals stationed in various places.

In order to suppress the power of the orthodox emperor of the Taishang Emperor, Emperor Jingtai even joined forces with the Chinese officials of the dynasty and turned a blind eye to the behavior of the civil officials who exceeded their authority, which made the hundreds of thousands of Gyeonggi garrisons very dissatisfied.

But at this time, the military attachés in the DPRK and China were in decline, so the soldiers could only break their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs.

At this time, Yu Qian looked at the soldiers in the big tent of the Chinese army, and the anger in his heart also dissipated a lot, and he sighed heavily as he watched everyone.

Yu Qian sat down and waved his hand to everyone, so that everyone was seated too.

"I know that all the soldiers are depressed in their hearts! However, since you are guarding the capital, you can't resent the court because you have been wronged! ”

"The Chinese official of the DPRK has given you grievances, but has Your Majesty ever wronged you? The people of the Ming Dynasty have ever wronged you! ”

When the generals heard this, their faces were ashamed, and they all bowed their heads and were silent.

Yu Qian said: "This time, I just want to see the situation of the Gyeonggi garrison, and then prepare for the second reorganization of the Gyeonggi garrison!" I know that many forces in the DPRK and China have tried their best to install people in the Gyeonggi garrison, and you general soldiers and generals are all right, and they are all people who are dedicated to the country, but you can't say for sure that the guerrillas and thousands of troops under your command are uncertain! ”

When all the generals heard this, they all looked at Yu Qian, and everyone's faces were extremely solemn, obviously what Yu Qian said was all the truth, and all the generals knew about this matter.

At this time, the previous general clenched his fists and said, "Please give the order to the military constitution!" We will obey! ”

"Please give the order! We will obey! ”

For a while, all the generals in the big tent of the Chinese army stood up and said.

Seeing this, Yu Qian also nodded secretly, and then said: "Now the armament of the officers and soldiers of the Gyeonggi garrison is a little insufficient, and the military salaries and previous pensions and rewards are also in arrears. Trimester! I will spend three months raising funds in various ways to make up for the soldiers! ”

"Xie Bingxian!"

Seeing that the morale of the generals had improved, Yu Qian continued: "As for the reorganization of this time, I am not going to use the manpower of the military department!" Since those forces in the DPRK and China can plant people in the army, they can also plant people in the military headquarters! Therefore, I will transfer troops from other places into Beijing to reorganize and drill the Gyeonggi garrison! ”

At this time, the general asked: "I don't know where the soldiers and horses are going to enter Beijing?" ”

In fact, Yu Qian had already thought about this issue before he came.

If you want to say that the soldiers and horses in all parts of the Ming Dynasty are the strongest, it should be Shandong Town.

When Liu Juntao, the chief military officer of Shandong Town, led his troops into King Qin, Yu Qian had seen the strong combat power of his troops with his own eyes.

Then Liu Juntao led his troops north to Datong Town, and even more defeated the Warat army, and until now the Wara Khan is still dormant on the grassland to recuperate.

Therefore, Yu Qian's first option was to prepare to recruit Liu Juntao, the chief military officer of Shandong Town, to lead his troops into Beijing to carry out the second reorganization and drill of more than 100,000 Gyeonggi garrisons.

The most important point is that Liu Juntao, the chief military officer of Shandong Town, also deeply hated the seizure of power by the Chinese officials of the DPRK, and unlike the rest of the military attachés, Liu Juntao really dared to confront Mai Mang with these civilian officials, rather than being silent.

Therefore, if Liu Juntao comes to reorganize the Gyeonggi garrison this time, Yu Qian can work with him to conduct an inventory of the Gyeonggi garrison and remove the manpower planted by all forces one by one!

This matter is also incompetent for people who are not determined, and Liu Juntao is just such a person!

So, Yu Qian, the secretary of the military department, said to the generals: "I am ready to recruit Liu Juntao, the chief military officer of Shandong Town, to lead his troops into Beijing to reorganize the soldiers and horses of various departments in Gyeonggi, I don't know what you think?" ”

All the generals were relieved when they heard this, and they all hugged their fists to receive the order, saying that they had no opinion and would fully cooperate with General Liu to carry out the reorganization.

As early as when Liu Juntao led his troops to aid Beijing City, many generals present fought side by side with Liu Juntao, and everyone resisted the Wara army together, left blood together, and killed the enemy together, although Liu Juntao may not be able to call the names of some generals, but everyone has a comradeship in their hearts.

This friendship is much stronger than those officials of the Ministry of War!

Therefore, the generals did not have the slightest resistance to the requisition of Liu Juntao, the chief military officer of Shandong Town.

Seeing this, Yu Qian also put his mind at ease, explained a few more words to everyone, and returned to the military department.

Two days later, Yu Qian ordered in the name of the Ministry of War: Liu Juntao, the chief military officer of Shandong Town, was requisitioned into Beijing, and led 2,000 pacesetters to enter the Fengtai camp on the outskirts of Beijing to reorganize and drill the Gyeonggi garrison!

At the same time, Shi Heng, the governor of the right capital, and the civil officials of the court also began to pay attention to the reorganization and wanted to see how Yu Qian was going to act.
