When Li Zicheng attacked Beijing, the Ming Dynasty had not yet reached the point of destruction, because the three major battalions of the Beijing division collapsed without a fight, resulting in the loss of the capital, and the Liaodong army and horses that returned to the aid were caught off guard, even the Manchu Qing Dynasty never imagined that the capital of the Ming Dynasty would be easily broken by the thieves.

If there is still a trace of blood in the three major battalions, and if there are still famous and capable commanders, then history will change.

But what is the reason for himself to rectify the three major battalions of the Beijing Division, from ancient times to the present, all military reforms must have a fuse, at this time Zhu Youzhen needs someone to publish the many problems of the three major battalions of the Beijing Division to the court, triggering the reform of the three major battalions of the Beijing Division in the Ming Dynasty, but who can say? In a trance, Zhu Youzhen thought of Tian Ergeng, Tian Ergeng was in charge of Jinyiwei, monitoring the world, uploading the Jade Court, it was his duty, after figuring this out, Zhu Youzhen summoned Tian Ergeng, and was strict with him, asking him to secretly check the number of the three major battalions of the Beijing Division and many problems, and spread it to the market, and specially instructed not to let Wei Zhongxian know.

Tian Ergeng has long known his situation, yesterday to visit Wei Zhongxian was refused, at this time there are two big boats above the court, one is Wei Zhongxian, and the other is Zhu Youzhen, and he was driven off the boat by Wei Zhongxian, if he did not try his best to climb onto Zhu Youzhen's boat, he could only drown, so Tian Ergeng, who regarded Zhu Youzhen as his life-saving straw, of course did not dare to disobey Zhu Youzhen's will.

After hearing Zhu Youzhen's guidance to him, after returning to the mansion, he summoned two thousand households who were the most loyal to him.

Tian Ergeng sat on the upper seat, looked at the two subordinates he valued the most, and said softly: "This official has no way out. ”

The younger Qianhu is named Li Shichao, and the rather old one is called Zhang Penghui.

Li Shichao hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Recently, there has been no unfavorable thing in the court, on the contrary, the emperor favors Wei Gonggong more than the previous emperor, as the right-hand man of Wei Gonggong, why did the lord say this." ”

"Heh, you have all been deceived, if my guess is correct, the emperor is full of disgust with Father-in-law Wei, and it is only the time not to eradicate him at this time, and the official will be somewhat implicated at that time." Tian Ergeng is right, even if he gets off Wei Zhongxian's boat now, what he can do before can't be washed away, even if Zhu Youjian is gracious outside the law, his official position will definitely not be guaranteed.

Zhang Penghui pondered for a while and said, "My lord, while the emperor is still in his fledgling, let's strike first. With the prestige of Gonggong Wei, it is easy to abolish the emperor. ”

Tian Ergeng's face changed, looked at Zhang Penghui, and said softly: "This is also a way." But it is not easy to abolish the emperor, the emperor has ascended the throne, and Sun Chengzong will go to Liaodong tomorrow to take office, if the emperor is abolished, Sun Chengzong will definitely enter the king of Jingqin, but I am afraid that the end will be even more miserable. “

Zhang Penghui snorted and said: "What kind of storm can a seventeen-year-old child emperor turn up, how can Gonggong Wei have been in charge of the government for so many years, how can he fall so easily." ”

Tian Ergeng had a definition in his heart, and he didn't say anything, walked up to Zhang Penghui, looked at Zhang Penghui and said, "Have you heard of something?" “

"I heard that there is a gap in the relationship between the adult and the father-in-law of Wei, which is extremely detrimental to the adult."

"You are the person I single-handedly promoted, why are you so loyal to Gonggong Wei, I can't hide it, the current official is doing things for the emperor, you are the person of Jinyiwei, don't forget your duties." Tian Ergeng said fiercely.

"My lord, I am your hand, but you relied on Gonggong Wei to sit in today's position, otherwise how could it be your turn to be the governor." Zhang Penghui was not timid.

"When did you get co-opted by Wei Zhongxian."

"I have never been wooed by Grandpa Wei, but don't forget that Governor Tian is all Grandpa Wei's people, we are grasshoppers on a rope, if something happens, no one can escape." After Zhang Penghui finished speaking, he didn't say goodbye, and wanted to leave the lobby as soon as he turned around.

"Stop." Tian Ergeng snorted angrily.

After Zhang Penghui heard it, he turned around and saw Li Shichao slashing at his neck, the two were so close that they couldn't dodge, and with a knife, Zhang Penghui's head was cut off, rolled a few times above the lobby, and stopped next to the door.

Tian Ergeng looked at Zhang Penghui's head and said fiercely: "You deserve to die." Then he went back to the main seat and did it again.

Li Shichao wiped the knife and put it back on the table, and said: "My lord, the lower official was pulled by the adult, and he will definitely not forget the kindness of the adult, kill the thief, and be loyal to the adult."

"You don't need to say your intentions, I know it, but how many people in the entire Jinyi Guard are loyal to me, and how many people are loyal to Wei Zhongxian?"

"My lord, others dare not say that the people of my headquarters are loyal to adults."

"Hey, I came to you this time to explain something to you. Now it seems that only you can do it. ”

Li Shichao glanced at Zhang Penghui's corpse and said, "My lord, although I said, the lower officials must do a good job." ”

"The emperor wants to move the three major battalions, there is no excuse, after you go down, you secretly investigate the many problems of the three major battalions, spread them in the market, and let those imperial historians who are idle every day go to the court to make trouble, which just gives the emperor a reason to start."

"Xia Guan understands."

Li Shichao gathered his subordinates overnight and spent four days collecting many problems of the three major battalions, such as, eating empty salaries, not entering the camp, and not practicing the soldiers, and it was spread in the market that the three battalions did not have a trace of combat effectiveness, saying that there were 180,000 soldiers and horses, but the old, weak, sick and disabled combined were less than 70,000, if the Houjin broke through the Liaodong defense line, the Beijing division would have no available soldiers to defend the city, and when the time came, the barbarians of the Houjin would enter the city and slaughter. These things became more and more evil, and finally the people of Jingshi knew about it, and everyone was in danger.

In the end, these things were sent to Zhu Youzhen's case by the imperial history, and Zhu Youzhen was furious and immediately summoned Wei Zhongxian, Cui Chengxiu, Tian Ergeng, Xu Xianchun, and Huang Liji and Shi Fenglai from the cabinet.

Zhu Youzhen sat in front of the dragon case, looked at the six people, his face was extremely unsightly, and he threw the piece to Wei Zhongxian's feet and said, "Father-in-law Wei, what are you going to read on this piece." “

At this time, something happened that made Zhu Youzhen even more angry, and threw the chapter at Wei Zhongxian's feet, Xu Xianchun hurriedly picked it up and handed it to Wei Zhongxian with both hands, and his loyal appearance made Zhu Youzhen a little disgusted, but Wei Zhongxian didn't notice anything wrong.

Wei Zhongxian took the chapter, glanced at Zhu Youzhen, and read it: "The minister was at home, suddenly heard that life outside the door was boiling, and he was busy watching what happened, only to see some rich people dragging their families and preparing to move, the minister was shocked, and hurriedly asked the rich businessman why he moved, the rich businessman said, the three major battalions of the Beijing division have no combat power, and the Beijing division is worried, lest he suffer the disaster of death, and he has no choice but to move to the south of the Yangtze River to avoid the disasterThe three battalions of the Ming Army Department registered a total of 176,124 people, but the actual number was less than 70,000. I hope that Your Majesty will make a judgment. Wei Zhongxian stopped talking after reading it, and waited until Zhu Youzhen spoke.

"The rich businessmen are all going to move, they are fleeing for their lives, so what about me, do I want to move, I am so big, I have never been out of Beijing, can I go to Nanjing?" After speaking, he shouted loudly: "What is the number of the three major battalions of the Beijing Division? Choi Chengxiu, you say. ”

Cui Chengxiu raised his head and said: "How can the emperor listen to the words of the market, how can my military department make a book, how can it be like child's play." ”

Zhu You laughed angrily: "There is no wind and no waves, I have long known the rumors circulating in the market, and I ordered Tian Dudu to investigate secretly, and sure enough, the three major battalions of the Beijing Division, under my nose, there are so many people who dare to start, Huang Liji, you are a veteran of the Three Dynasties, and you are the first assistant of the cabinet, what do you say about this matter?" “

"Your Majesty, eat empty salary, all dynasties have had this matter, and the layers below protect each other, Cui Shangshu doesn't know, all the sins can't be pushed to the body of the military department, the most important thing at this time is to reorganize the three major battalions, if Houjin breaks through the Liaodong defense line, the imperial court will not be without available soldiers." Huang Liji is worthy of being the person who has achieved the position of the first assistant of the cabinet, he understands Zhu Youzhen's thoughts, so he followed Zhu Youzhen's meaning and said that he sold a favor to the eunuch party, otherwise with this matter, Zhu Youzhen would be able to give an order after Cui Chengxiu went home to retire.
