Chapter 123 Water into the oil pot

The Chu army forcibly robbed the Taicang silver vault, like a drop of water falling into a hot oil pot, which immediately caused an explosive riot.

Nearly three hundred years after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Taicang was robbed for the first time, and the first reaction of the people who heard it was unbelievable, and when the more accurate news came, the Chu army not only robbed the household Taicang, but also robbed the treasury of the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry, and everyone was full of righteous indignation.

After receiving the alarm, the Guilin Terracotta Division also dispatched troops to rush to the bomb pressure, plus other helpers, coaxing, and watching the excitement, more than 2,000 people chased to the dock together.

Guilin has just been upgraded to accompany Beijing, and the public security aspect follows the old system of the two capitals, which is mainly responsible for the Guilin Mansion and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses. Guilin Mansion is similar to Shuntian Mansion, responsible for managing civil cases, I heard that it was the Chu army that made trouble and did not dare to come forward, so only sent a hundred and ten officials to arrest Kuai and follow behind to help. The Guilin Terracotta Division is similar to the Five Cities Terracotta Division, which is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, and it is indispensable to shirk the responsibility of this kind of chaos, and more than 900 officers and soldiers have been sent one after another.

However, the Imperial Guards never moved.

The Imperial Forest Army is a regular army, like the three major battalions of the Beijing Division, responsible for defending Guilin and ensuring the safety of the emperor. Soon after the change in the city, the first assistant He Wusu and the eunuch Pang Tianshou of Bingbi came to the garrison of the Imperial Forest Army with the holy decree of Emperor Longwu, and transferred 1,500 Imperial Forest Army to strengthen the guards of the palace, while the other battalions entered a state of combat readiness.

After receiving the order, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army asked He Wusu and Pang Tianshou about the inside information.

He Wuyu's face was uncertain. Rather than answering him, he said to himself, looked in the direction of the dock and said, "This mess is strange. I don't know if there is still an inside story, in short, the palace must not be lost, and the Royal Forest Army cannot leave the camp, so as not to be taken by the small people. ”

The robbery of Taicang is certainly very strict and incredible, but after all, it is only a public security incident, and I am afraid that there will be a bigger conspiracy behind. If it develops into a coup d'Γ©tat, it will be a real disaster...... Before the shape is clear, the Imperial Forest Army must not be dispatched lightly!

"Master He was too worried. It's just a ruffian. It's a bit too much, don't worry. Pang Tianshou knew some inside information, and his demeanor was very relaxed, which was in stark contrast to He Wusu. It's really not that complicated. Emperor Longwu was not in a hurry at all when he heard about it. The emperor is not in a hurry, why should the eunuchs be in a hurry?

"I hope it's just as Pang Gonggong said! Alas, Wang Kefan used to be quite his duty, how could he suddenly make such a fuss, don't make it impossible to end up in the end. ”

"Hey, you can't blame Xiao Wang, right? Master He, the official of the household department, should know that the goose plucked its feathers and caught the toad can catch the oil. It must have annoyed Xiao Wang......"

……

The Imperial Forest Army did not move, but the Jinyi Guard did.

Roughly speaking. Guilin Mansion is like a city manager, Guilin Terracotta is like a public security bureau, and Jinyi Wei is considered an armed police. The Taicang Treasury was robbed, the regular army like the Imperial Forest Army would not be able to take care of it, the urban management of Guilin Mansion did not dare to take care of it, and the Guilin Soldiers and Horses Division had to go hard, and the Jinyi Guard was also justified.

But unlike the Guilin Terracotta Division, the movements of the Jinyi Guards were a little strange, they did not chase them to the dock with others, but set up roadblocks on various roadblocks to prohibit traffic. It is said that this was an order from the commander of Jinyiwei, Ma Jixiang, and the reason was also above board, and martial law was imposed in case of emergency to prevent further expansion of the riot.

Under the obstruction of Jinyiwei, except for the initial more than 2,000 people, the others who came after hearing the news were all blocked on the periphery of the dock and could not get close.

"Little brother, can you be accommodating, let me in, I am the head of the Ministry of War......" Gu Yanwu bowed his hand, took out the tooth tag from his arms, and handed it to the Jinyi Wei Xiaoqi in front of the roadcar.

"This lord, you go to the side, mark your duty, and you can't let you go. The road closure is the order of my commander, not to mention that you are the head of the military department, even if the military department is still here. The little flag was polite and cold, and he didn't let go of his mouth at all.

"Your commander is Ma Jixiang, I know him." When Gu Yanwu first arrived in Guilin, he was with Wang Kefan, Ma Jixiang came to visit, the two had a relationship, Gu Yanwu now has a certain reputation, Ma Jixiang is polite to him, but it is just a nodding friend.

"Hehe, there are many people who know my commander, you know him, but he may not know you. Excuse me, you pull over and stand aside, someone wants to go in. There were a lot of people in front of the roadcar, and the noise was very chaotic, and the little flag was busy maintaining order, and he was a little annoyed with Gu Yanwu, so he stretched out his hand to push him aside.

Although he didn't use his strength, Gu Yanwu was still very angry, but Xiucai met a soldier, and he couldn't explain it clearly, and he couldn't do anything about it for a while, so he inadvertently looked up with his gaze, but saw an old acquaintance.

"Mr. You Chu! Tour Chu! Zhu Tianlin! I'm Gu Yanwu, take me in......"

Under the leadership of Zhu Tianlin, Gu Yanwu finally crossed the roadblock.

"Master Gu, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I thought you were from the military department looking for trouble." That Xiaoqi kept making amends: "You are a friend of Master Zhu, but you said it earlier!" My family commander and Wang Junmen are their own people, and you and Wang Junmen are also their own people, so we are all our own people, I will definitely let you in early! ”

Following Zhu Tianlin, Gu Yanwu squeezed through the crowd and entered the dock.

The docks were full of people and chaos.

Originally, it was very busy, with a lot of people of all kinds and so on. But at noon today, hundreds of soldiers of the Chu army suddenly arrived, followed by more officers and soldiers, officials and masters, both sides were fully armed, and the swords were tense, as if a fight would start at any time, and those porters and travelers all fled.

On the current wharf, more than 2,000 people who have just chased are outside, the inner and outer three floors of the station, and the outer ones are all here to help, the soldiers of the Terracotta Division are in the middle, and the officials of the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War are in the front. Gu Yanwu and Huang Zongxi looked left and right, and when they saw Huang Jin, they hurriedly stepped forward to pay their respects.

Belonging to the same Donglin lineage, Huang Zongxi and Huang Jin were closer, talking with him, after Gu Yanwu saluted Huang Jin, he quickly turned his attention to the shore, but there were still many people in front of him, and he couldn't see the situation inside.

Huang Jin's family general was standing next to him, also looking in, and Gu Yanwu waved at him.

"How's it going, did you fight?"

"No, I don't. It's just noisy, it's been arguing for half an hour, but looking at it, maybe it's going to really fight. ”

After coming to Guilin, Gu Yanwu was with Wang Kefan at first, and was summoned by Emperor Longwu two days later, and then waited for the arrangement of the imperial court. Wang Kefan was very busy every day, so Gu Yanwu looked around by himself, first, to visit old friends, and secondly, to see the situation in Guilin.

Suddenly he heard that there was a mess, and he hurried over, although he didn't know what he could do, but he couldn't stay out of it. Robbing Taicang is a big crime, why Wang Kefan is so impulsive, Gu Yanwu doesn't understand.

"Mr. Ji'an, your old man is highly respected, can you go up and persuade you." Gu Yanwu said to Huang Jin.

"Alas, well, you guys go with me, things have come to this point, and I don't know what to do." Huang Jin didn't come out just now.

With his identity, if he stepped forward and said a few words, neither side would be rude to him, but this is not a fight to persuade peace, since Wang Kefan has done it, he may not listen to the persuasion, even if he can persuade Wang Kefan to return the silver, it is impossible to write off this matter.

Not far away, the soldiers of the Soldiers and Horses Division formed a queue, ready to come forward to fight at any time, and there was a faint quarrel in front, it seemed that there were officials negotiating with the Chu army, but listening to the voice of the speech, it was definitely not Wang Kefan.

Gu Yanwu's eyes swept over, in addition to the soldiers of the Terracotta Division, there were also the manpower brought by the officials of the four departments, the soldiers guarding the warehouse, the soldiers guarding the ya, the officials' family guards, etc., adding up to seven or eight hundred people, all of whom were carrying weapons, and they were also a force to be reckoned with.

"How many people are there in Wang Junmen? If this fights, I'm afraid he won't be able to withstand it. Huang Zongxi leaned over and whispered to Gu Yanwu.

"I don't know, it's only two or three hundred people at most. However, the Chu army is all elite soldiers, and a small number of people may not necessarily suffer. Otherwise, Lu Zhenfei and the others will do it directly, what are they arguing about! Gu Yanwu thought about it for a while, there were only about 100 personal guards brought by Wang Kefan, and even if Fan Wenqin and Liu Shu's people were added, there were no more than 300 people in total.

Unexpectedly, when they came to the front, there were seven or eight hundred people on the Chu army's side. On the periphery, three hundred soldiers stood in formation, armed with spears and firearms, forming a defensive line, and three or four hundred people inside were unloading trucks and loading ships, carrying silver boxes one after another, and swaying across the gangplank.

"Stop! No more shipments! This is the last warning, if you don't stop it, don't blame Ben for turning his face! Yan Yun stood in front and shouted loudly to Chu Jun.

He was originally a general of the Imperial Forest Army, but because he was involved in a miscarriage coup, he was arrested and put in the edict of Jinyiwei, and he thought that he was going to die this time, but after a while, he was released inexplicably, and he didn't know the reason for asking around. Until one day, a mysterious scribe suddenly appeared, and he couldn't see what his identity was, but just told Yan Yun not to ask around about the reason anymore, and to keep his mouth shut in the future, so as not to cause death......

Yan Yun suddenly realized that this was a big man intervening, and he was afraid that he would confess in Jinyiwei, but why he didn't choose to kill people, but tried his best to get himself out of the edict prison, the reason is unknown.

After this incident, the Imperial Forest Army couldn't go back, and the Sanpin General couldn't be a general, Yan Yun suddenly received a demote order, sending him to serve in the Guilin Terracotta Division, and became a hundred households with seven products. (To be continued......)
