Chapter 229: Just Beginning

As for whether the military attache should wear a sword, when the imperial attendant military attache was established, there was a dispute between the emperor and the military aircraft department, and the ministers of military aircraft were of course opposed, and Wang Chengen, who was the most loyal in history, of course, also euphemistically expressed his opposition, but they did not convince the emperor.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't care about this, even if Wu Sangui was a traitor who had betrayed the Ming Dynasty and surrendered to the Manchu Qing Dynasty in history, the emperor didn't think that he would do anything wrong if he was allowed to walk in front of the emperor with a sword.

First of all, every time the emperor appears, there is a large group of people around him, in addition to the military attaché in front of the imperial chamberlain, there are also people from Jinyiwei, people from Dongchang, and people from Wang Chengen, as well as ministers from the cabinet or the military aircraft department.

Secondly, the emperor did not care about his own safety, on the contrary, every time he traveled, he would bring a few flintlock handcuffs specially refined for the emperor by the gun factory of the Arsenal Academy, even if someone dared to assassinate rashly, it was just a suicide.

Moreover, the military attachés selected by the emperor are all famous figures in history, and most of them have proven their loyalty to the Ming Emperor in history, so he has nothing to worry about.

After Wang Chengyin came in, he knelt not far from Liu Ce, and now when he saw that Emperor Chongzhen didn't agree with each other, he killed his original backer and benefactor, Liu Ce, the chief military officer of Jizhen, and was so frightened that he sat on the ground and almost peed his pants.

At this time, after he saw that the emperor had disposed of Liu Ce, he turned his gaze to himself, and immediately cheered up, turned over and got up, and kept kowtowing to the ground, asking the emperor for forgiveness.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at Wang Chengyin in disgust and cried on the ground, took a finger and looked at him with burning eyes, and nodded at him.

Fierce as a tiger immediately stepped forward, like an eagle catching a chicken, lifted Wang Chengyin up, strode out of the door, pulled out the Qi knife on his waist, raised the knife in his hand, and cut off Wang Chengyin's tearful head.

Are Liu Ce, the marshal of Jizhen, and Ju Yong, the guard of Juyong, unjust? Maybe a little wronged.

Originally, Emperor Chongzhen in history, although he finally killed Liu Ce, was because Liu Ce, as the marshal of Jizhen at that time, not only could not effectively resist the Jianyu army from the border of his letter, but also after the Jianyu army broke through the border and captured Zunhua, he still stationed troops in Jizhou, and sat back and watched Huang Taiji lead the army to besiege the capital division without saving it.

As for whether he will kill Liu Ce just because the defense of Juyong Pass is lax, this is really hard to say.

Because Emperor Chongzhen in history has never been to Juyong Pass, and has never even left Beijing, even the Forbidden City has rarely come out, he has no idea what his country is like, and he can't imagine that the army of millions in the north of the Ming Dynasty is actually just a group of beggars who can't pay or eat.

If he knew, he would have killed these waste generals who couldn't do anything and didn't have anything left over.

But it's a pity that when he still had the opportunity, he didn't know these facts, and by the time he finally knew, the Ming army had basically been reduced to the general's private soldiers and had lost the control of the imperial court.

At that time, he dared to kill the civil officials of the superintendent, but he no longer dared to kill the generals with the troops, because if he revealed such a little meaning, the generals with the troops would run to the enemy with the Ming army.

Now this Emperor Chongzhen, after disposing of Liu Ce and Wang Chengyin, discussed with Sun Chengzong, Liu Wenbing and others about the aftermath of Juyongguan and Jizhen, and explained to several imperial attendants and military attachés, and then arranged for them to deal with it.

Hu Dawei first took out the Qi knife from Liu Ce, who fell to the ground, dragged the corpse out of the door, and then cut off the head, carrying the bloody head in his hand, and followed Sun Chengzong and Liu Wenbing to deal with the three hundred families brought by Liu Ce.

And the three hundred family members are naturally all personal subordinates that Liu Ce has spent a lot of money to raise over the years, and they have always only listened to Liu Ce's orders in Jizhen, so they are the most unruly.

Now that he suddenly learned that Liu Ce was killed without dying, he was indignant for a while, and he confronted the Jinyi guard who came to deliver the edict and appease.

However, no matter how unruly these people are, no matter how fierce they are not afraid of death, they are just flesh and blood who have not been approved for heavy armor, and in the face of Chongzhen in the hands of the Jinyi Guard Captain and the Shenji Battalion soldiers, no matter how they can fight it, it is useless.

Originally, these people followed Liu Ce, changed horses without changing people, galloped for nearly 300 miles, and when they arrived at the city of Nanguan in Yongguan, they were already sleepy and tired.

At this time, immediate disarming and surrender is already their only choice, and there is only one way to die.

Now as they drew their swords and confronted each other, Sun Chengzong also lost the patience to talk nonsense with them, and immediately ordered the Jinyi guards and the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion to shoot, and after a while, all 300 people were killed in the urn city.

Sun Chengzong has served as a supervisor and led soldiers, so he also knows in his heart that although such a family member is very elite and brave, one can top a few ordinary border soldiers, but after killing its master, it will be difficult for these people to be used by the court, let alone others.

Rather than keeping such people and appeased and not knowing how to deal with them, it is better to simply kill them and never suffer in the future.

Emperor Chongzhen was on top of the city tower of the inner gate of Nanguan City, and of course the gunshots in the urn city could be heard clearly, but he also knew that there was no better choice than to do so.

Originally, Emperor Chongzhen, who was just taking advantage of Xizong's funeral and going to Changping to worship the spirit, went to the vicinity of Juyong Pass to see the defense of western Beijing, and did not have a plan to kill in Juyong Pass.

However, at this time, things came to this point, and Emperor Chongzhen naturally lost the interest in continuing to go to Bauhinia Pass to investigate the defense of the western front of the Beijing Division.

In the past two days, the north and south of Juyong Pass were closed, and martial law was imposed day and night in the city. At this time, after disposing of the three hundred families under Liu Ce's command, there was no longer any threat in the city.

After discussing with Sun Chengzong, Emperor Chongzhen immediately decided to lift martial law and let Sun Chengzong bring some of his men to the official office of Juyong Pass to meet and appease the representatives of merchants and people in the city, and accept their accusations against Wang Chengyin and other Juyong Pass guards and guards and officials.

At the same time, they also sent Liu Tingjie, He Zan, and other attendant military attachés from the Northwest Frontier Army who had a slight understanding of the situation of the guards, to the old and weak soldiers of Yongguan, who were still imprisoned in Beiguan City, to collect information and evidence of the mergers, occupation, and misfortune of Yanqingwei, Long Qingwei, and the higher-level command organs of the guards around Juyongguan, that is, the families of the lords and ministers of the former military capital.

Needless to say, Liu Tingjie is a military attaché, but his father is a Jinshi and has inherited the family motto since he was a child, so he can be called a talent with both civil and military skills.

The same is true of He Zan, his father is He Huchen, the chief military officer of Ningxia Town, who is brave and wise, although he is not an all-round talent in civil and military affairs, but he is also a wise and brave person.

Such a person, compared with Huang Degong, Hu Dawei, Fierce as a Tiger, You Yangkun and other simple brave generals who are more than brave and have a slight lack of wisdom, are more able to take charge of their own and take on heavy responsibilities.

In particular, when it came to matters related to Jizhen and the former military capital, Liu Tingjie and He Zan, the other attendants and military attachés from the vicinity of Jizhen, were trustworthy because they had no specific interests in the area.

However, Hou Gongji, Wu Sangui, You Yangkun and others are different, and it is difficult to guarantee that they have no interests related to the upper echelons of the local guard and even the Xungui family.

Any accidents that may arise as a result can be avoided, and of course it is best to avoid them in advance.

After arranging these things, Emperor Chongzhen took his attendants and walked on the top of the tower of Nanguan City, thinking about the measures that should be arranged in advance before returning to Beijing.

In November and winter, it gets dark early, and in this era, there is no entertainment in the north even during the day, and there is no nightlife at night.

In addition, Emperor Chongzhen, who was in Juyongguan, was tired for another day, so after having a simple dinner accompanied by Hai Lanzhu, he washed up and went to bed early.

In the middle of the night, Wang Chengen came to the door of the second floor and hurriedly woke up the emperor who was sleeping soundly, saying that Li Banghua, the minister of military aircraft, had sent someone to send news from Beijing.

Emperor Chongzhen, who had always been concerned about this matter, immediately dressed and went downstairs, and at this time, Sun Chengzong, Liu Wenbing, Wang Guoxing and others were already waiting downstairs.
