Chapter 372: Jingshi Chaos

In the spring of the eighteenth year of Jiajing, the border soldiers guarding the edge of the Great Wall suddenly realized that their work was much easier.

There were no Mongols to attack at all, and the so-called 60,000-strong army of the Tile Spur suddenly disappeared into thin air as if it had disappeared, and it was now widely rumored that the Tile Spur's troops had suffered an inexplicable disaster in the far north, and the entire force had disappeared.

If it is said that the Ming Dynasty has deployed hundreds of thousands of troops on the border and guarded against the Mongols for more than 100 years, no one will believe that they have disappeared like this.

But now that none of the border generals at the border pass still cares about Mongolian affairs, everyone under the Great Tomorrow is looking at the Jingshi.

I don't know when it started, maybe after the Spring Festival in the tenth year of Jiajing, there will always be a lot of major events in the lunar month every year, several major chaos in Shandong, the chaos of the Japanese in the coast, and the pacification of these things, all of which occurred around the time of the New Year.

In the past, every autumn, the Mongols always took advantage of the high autumn horse fat, and went south to plunder and attack the border pass, and then the Ming army in the pass mobilized, resisted, and attacked. Most of the financial and policy arrangements of the Ming Dynasty were based on this, but slowly, the Mongols gradually stopped going south, but in winter, there were always all kinds of lawless rebellions in the inland provinces.

Chen Deaf and Liu Shisan, as well as the soldiers who heard the knife, gave these people too much encouragement, they thought that the system and structure of the Ming Dynasty were not too stable now, there were many loopholes to exploit, and it was time for adventurers to take risks to obtain wealth, but they didn't know who was behind those huge rebellions.

Back in the seventeenth year of Jiajing, the Qin army, which was used to supplement the defense of the Beijing Division, suddenly entered Beijing without warning.

The Qin army on the three sides of Shaanxi can be called one of the strongest troops of the Ming Dynasty, Shaanxi is located in a remote area, there is no rich and prosperous place, the folk customs are simple, and here is close to the Western Regions, the invasion and plundering of foreign races, from a thousand years ago to the present has not been broken, years of fighting have made the Qin army's combat effectiveness strong and abnormal.

Since the Jingtai period, there has been no matter of border troops entering the city, so when a large number of Qin troops flocked into the city at the west gate of the Beijing Division, many people did not react, or they didn't know what was going on at all.

Jingshi can be called the strength of the army, there are five cities of soldiers and horses, Jingwei, imperial horse prison army and Jinyi guard, the role of the five cities of soldiers and horses is only to maintain law and order, and for the Shuntian Mansion and Jinyi Guard rely very much, it can be seen that it is useless.

There are 5,000 Jingwei, but under the deliberate connivance of the emperor, this Jingwei usually has an extremely serious shortage, after all, the emperor is unwilling to have a regular, foreign military force around him, and the Jingwei is on guard against the prosperity of the Beijing Division, which is extremely erosive.

The discipline of the soldiers is not as good as that of the soldiers of the twelve regiments and battalions that the generals of the Qin army despise, and they are basically the scoundrels of the Beijing division as sick soldiers, not to mention any combat effectiveness.

The truly elite force was the four battalions of the Imperial Horse Guard, which maintained a number of 3,000 to 4,000 men in the Forbidden City all year round, and most of them were well-armed orphans of the border army and young men who had fled back from Mongolia. On weekdays, he is under the control of the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Seal.

You may still remember that when Jiang Feng started his family, the greatest blessing was Zhang Yong, the palm seal eunuch from the Imperial Horse Supervisor, this position was actually no less powerful than the prominent and majestic internal officials such as the Admiral of Dongchang and the Grand Eunuch of the Ceremonial Supervisor, and even more trusted by the emperor.

As for Jinyiwei, the role of Jinyiwei is not to fight, his Han general system is the emperor's Yulin army, which acts as a guard of honor, and the north and south Zhenfu Si Yamen are mainly a supplement and reinforcement of the criminal department.

When the Qin army's horse team and foot soldiers swarmed into Beijing, the soldiers and horses of the five cities basically did not make any reaction, and the Jingwei dispersed in a hurry, and even some bold scoundrels began to fish in troubled waters and loot people's houses.

After almost everyone knew that the border army had entered Beijing, the entire Beijing division was in a commotion, but during the whole process, the military discipline of the Qin army was maintained very strictly, and their goal was very clear, which was the Forbidden City.

Huang Jin, the eunuch of the palm print of the imperial horse eunuch, was in charge for a period of time, and then gave it to Lu Ban, who was also the old man of Xingxian Wangfu, and Huang Jin was also a good friend, of course, Lu Ban also had his own industry outside the Guan, and the scale was quite large, and the forbidden army of the imperial horse prison also had various early warning measures in the capital city.

Before the Jingwei collapsed, Lu Ban had already begun to issue orders for the transfer of troops, but what he didn't expect was that the order he issued was blocked by a little eunuch with a token of no grade. The officers of the Imperial Horse Prison were really dumbfounded at this time, thinking that they had been soldiers and eaten food for so many years, but they really had never seen such a situation.

The order of the eunuch of the imperial horse eunuch was blocked, and the person who blocked it was actually a eunuch beside the emperor, and he also held an effective token, since both sides have the power to represent the emperor, and they are not fake, then it is impossible for these soldiers of the imperial horse eunuch to help anyone, just watching the two eunuchs quarrel there, but in this way, it is too late for anything.

Zhou Lin, the deputy commander of Yansui, led a thousand horses to rush to the front, and the general Guan Hai took two thousand soldiers to the place where the Imperial Horse Prison Army was stationed, and the remaining two thousand soldiers followed the horse team.

The soldiers of the Imperial Horse Supervisor did not receive the order to act, that is, they were still waiting in the barracks, and the 2,000 soldiers in charge of the sea were not as many as the Imperial Horse Supervisors, but after entering Beijing, there were eunuchs disguised as civilians to respond. After meeting with the Qin army, he led the way in front and led the soldiers to the barracks of the Imperial Horse Supervisor.

The guard guarding the door looked at the seal of the eunuch, and wondered in his heart, thinking that there were still people arguing inside, why did he come here again, but this seal was not fake, so he had to open the door.

As soon as the door was opened, the matter was simple, and the wolf-like Qin army immediately poured in, and the unsuspecting Imperial Horse Prison Army had to be obediently disarmed.

The quarrel between the eunuch Lu Ban and the eunuch finally made it clear who was right, and the Qin army outside was murderous, so it was natural to distinguish who was right.

It was not until this time that the eunuch who led the way for the Qin army and opened the door took out the edict of Emperor Jiajing, and the eunuch of Lu Ban's imperial horse eunuch palm print was deprived, and the eunuch Tian Xin who led the way became the new eunuch with palm print, and soon the forbidden army of the imperial horse eunuch was remobilized.

At this time, it was the time of the civil and military hundred officials to meet the court, the space sound insulation of the court meeting was still relatively good, the Qin army moved quickly, and the noisy movement of the people and horses did not hear it at all, but it was also a mess here, and when Emperor Jiajing ascended the throne, it was not like the history that Jiang Feng did not cross, and now he is intoxicated with cultivation and seeking immortals, and he is still diligent in political affairs, because of several major chaos, as well as those unbelievable things have appeared, so that Jiajing can not retreat to the background at all.

That is, in the sixteenth year of Jiajing, he began to invite the Taoist priests around the former Xingxian palace into the palace, and began to do great things, and slowly there were records of not going to the court.

The civil officials were most disgusted by such a situation, and these ministers, who studied Confucian laws and documents, could not tolerate the fact that their emperor was not governing, but was immersed in these gods and ghosts every day.

On the one hand, the Xungui clique, which had made huge commercial gains in Guanwai and Nanyang, did not want the emperor to interfere in their business, and on the other hand, they felt that the emperor had to do his best to govern the country, and they felt that they were loyal to the Ming and the emperor, of course, this feeling was only their feelings.

Every time the emperor does not go to court, the civil officials are hard to advise, and the Jiajing Emperor then admonishes the court to deal with it for a few days, and then he is nested in the palace to cultivate, this kind of tug-of-war with each other has lasted for a long time, but this time the courtiers finally can't stand it, because the Jiajing Emperor has not appeared in the court for half a month, and all the twists and turns of the civil officials are in the sea.

When the eunuch on duty shouted "retreat from the dynasty" in a sharp voice, Yan Song, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, walked a few steps quickly and grabbed Huang Jin, who had not yet left, although the eunuchs of the ceremonial eunuch were weighted, but the cabinet scholars were customary to teach the eunuchs of the ceremonial supervisor to read in the inner study, so it was not some special dynasty, the relationship between the inner and outer dynasties was still quite close, Huang Jin was not angry, but took the initiative to speak:

"Lord Yan, our family can't persuade the saint, and we can't see it here......"

While talking, several other people came over and said:

"Gonggong Huang, if the emperor continues like this, where are the people of the world placed, and where is the Sheji Taimiao placed, we will definitely die!" Before the impassioned words were finished, a few little eunuchs ran in a panic outside, and they hissed loudly there

Yell:

"No, it's not good, the army from outside is entering the city!!"

The people who heard this sentence were shocked, and more people had not yet reacted, and the army entered the Beijing Division, which was simply impossible to happen

Before they could continue to react, the eunuch who had just shouted out of the retreat from the court was sweating profusely and returned to the main hall again, shouting in a trembling voice:

"Upper Dynasty ~~~~~"
