Everyone finally brought down Xiong Tingbi, greatly encouraged, and felt that they should make persistent efforts, and the imperial historian Zheng Zongzhou thought that the punishment for Cui Wensheng was too light, and he should be killed, and the first assistant Fang Congzhe shielded Cui Wensheng and asked him to withdraw from the cabinet immediately.

Then the Criminal Department gave Wei Yingjia a counselor to Fang Congzhe in the matter, believing that none of the cabinet's responses to the Liaodong border matter hit the nail on the head, and the chaotic decisions made had no effect, and Cui Wensheng and Li Kezhuo's punishment was too light, and the responsibility was on Fang Congzhe, and Fang Congzhe should be dismissed.

Looking at the court hall like a vegetable market, Zhu Youxiao only smiled bitterly. But Fang Congzhe is ready to protect it, because the people who attacked him were all about Cui Wensheng and Li Kezhuo, and he had personally experienced this matter, and the responsibility was not on Fang Congzhe, so all the twists and turns were left behind, so let them quarrel first.

Zhu Youxiao returned to the harem and received the materials sent by Luo Sigong, Jinyiwei bought a servant of Zhang Guoji's family, claiming that there was something at home and asked a female spy in Jinyiwei to enter Zhang's mansion to do things on her behalf, so Zhang's actions were all in Jinyiwei's control. There are descriptions of everyone's situation in the materials, among which Zhang Yan is: "Depressed and unhappy, I haven't said a word for a long time." Zhu Youxiao told the people sent by Luo Sigong to focus on investigating the woman's situation, the more detailed the better, and pay attention to protecting the woman's safety.

Sun Chuanting received the order and returned to Beijing on September 26. When he arrived in Beijing, he first reported to the military department, which had just been done, and his intention to enter the palace had arrived.

Sun Chuanting was twenty-seven or eighteen years old and very capable, and after seeing the ceremony, Zhu Youxiao gave him a seat. Then he said: "I heard that since Sun Qing took office, he has acted vigorously and decently. Today, I would like to hear what Sun Qing thinks of our Ming officers and soldiers. ”

"Your Majesty, the minister has just arrived at the military department, and he doesn't dare to say anything."

"If you say it in vain, I will listen to it, I don't scold people with words, although Sun Qing speaks freely, there is no need to scruple too much."

Then the minister was bold and vain. There are three disadvantages of our Ming officers and army, one is too little training, the other is not enough military salary, and the three are many old and weak and young and strong in the army. These three disadvantages actually boil down to a money word. The imperial court salary was actually given, but I don't know which people's pockets it went into. Military households are often reduced to the slaves of powerful officials, and they have little combat power at all. "In fact, Yiwen Yuwu is also a big drawback or even the biggest drawback, but he is a Wenchen, I wish it was so, of course I won't say it.

"What Sun Qing said is reasonable, I want to rectify the Beijing camp, I wonder if Sun Qing can help me make the Beijing camp into a combatable army?"

The great opportunity is in front of him, and of course Sun Chuanting will seize it to the death: "I am willing to die for Your Majesty." ”

"Okay, Qing and get up, I appointed Qing as the minister of cleaning up the Beijing camp of Qincha, give you the sword of Shang Fang, kill the people who should be killed, and return me to a clean and capable Beijing camp."

"Remove the useless generals, clarify the context of the military salary, the existing Beijing camp Lu guerrilla, Zhou General, is a credible person, can help you understand the situation in the Beijing camp, you discuss first, prepare for life, and I will give an order tomorrow."

On September 27, the emperor decreed that Sun Chuanting, the staff of the Ministry of War, was appointed as the minister of the Qincha Beijing camp and gave Shang Fang a sword. Everyone has never heard of this Qincha, but since it is a civilian official who handles military affairs, and it is snatched from the hands of internal officials, the civilian officials are of course optimistic.

Sun Chuanting did not go directly to Jingying. He first learned some basic information from Lu Qin and Zhou Yuji. On September 28, he entered the Beijing camp, beat the drum of the generals, the drum was about to end, in the hall, the generals were lined up on both sides, Sun Chuanting sat in front of the case, holding a case file in his hand, and said to the two leaders of the team: "Governor Li, Assistant Wang, have the generals arrived?" ”

Governor Jingying Rongzheng Li Xin hurriedly knelt on the ground, assistant Jingying Rongzheng Wang Tao stood aside, Li Xin said: "Lord Qiqi Qincha, all the generals in Beijing, there are generals, deputy generals, generals, guerrillas, 28 people, and the governor, a total of 30 assistants, all of them are here, please read it." ”

Yesterday's decree was issued, and those who don't come today are only afraid that they will be fools, Sun Chuanting of course understands that the generals will come, and he didn't want to make a fuss here.

"Governor Li, I don't know how many days the soldiers in the barracks will practice?"

"So that Lord Qincha will know that he has to practice every day."

"How many people participate in each drill?"

"The daily drill, due to the rotation reasons, is slightly different, more than 8,000 people, less than 6,000 people."

Sun Chuanting scolded in his heart: "There are only three or four hundred people who practice in a day, and they are embarrassed to exaggerate dozens of times, and they are not afraid of the wind blowing their teeth out." So Wen Yan said: "That's good, that's good." Governor Li, Wang Assistant, and Ben Chin were ordered by the emperor to clean up the military camp. According to the record in the volume, the five military battalions should have 60,000 regular soldiers, 66,660 reserve troops, 40,000 Shenji battalions, and two Shenshu Shenji battalions, each with 30,000 regular soldiers and 40,000 reserve troops, excluding the squad army, a total of 120,000 regular soldiers and 146,660 reserve troops. ”

Li Xin said: "How could Lord Qincha miscalculate. Wang Tao also echoed.

"That's good, you are blessed by the emperor, I think you will be loyal to the country, diligent in the king's affairs, tomorrow the Japanese Qin sent to check the army in the Beijing camp school, and the whole army will be completed in the middle of the day, so that the inspection, now go and prepare."

After Li Xin heard this, he immediately sweated profusely, and looked at Wang Tao next to him, Wang Tao was also looking at him, and both of them had the same three words in their eyes, "What should I do?" ”

The generals left the lobby and did not leave, but gathered together and surrounded Li Xin and Wang Tao in the middle. Gossip said: "Is this Qincha a donkey, where are so many people, check and check, check his grandmother's test." "I'm afraid that Qin Cha will know the situation early, and tomorrow he wants to give us a dismount." "Lao Tzu doesn't care what he does, it's good to give him face today, and tomorrow Lao Tzu wants to go to the church, but he can't come." "Zhang Youye, you donkey goods, go to the church in the morning." The noise made Li Xin's brain turn over.

He yelled, "Don't fucking make a noise." Everyone was silent for a while, and immediately it was the same again: "Li Xin, what is your name, you know where to stay tomorrow." "Governor Li is so powerful, I'm so afraid." "I don't believe that Qin Cha will dare to do anything to us tomorrow, if you are really powerful, you go to your father-in-law, they have a big head."

Li Xin saw that it was not a problem, so he stopped yelling, and said directly to Wang Tao: "Let's go to Qincha and talk about it first, otherwise I am afraid that it will not look good tomorrow." ”

The two of them each brought two generals who were usually close friends, and the six of them came to the door of the lobby together, and the guard at the door said: "Qin has an order, you have to rest when you are tired, and you will come back tomorrow if you have something." The two glanced at each other, and they already knew in their hearts that Qin Cha was going to come tomorrow to give a dismount. Now it's useless to find the backstage, who can have a big backstage.
