Chapter 224 Yuntai Point Soldiers

Although the manpower efficiency of the Jinyi Guard Gong Wei Division and the Dianqian Division was not low, the messengers sent by Wang Chengyin to report the situation to Liu Ce, the chief soldier of Jizhen Town, and Li Guozhen, the Bo of Xiangcheng, still went out of the city smoothly before closing the city gate.

Liu Zhen's return made Wang Chengyin's heart feel a little more steady, and then he was busy preparing food and drink for the emperor's attendants and the two thousand soldiers of the Shenji Battalion, and settling down in a resting place, Wang Chengyin was a little relieved when he was busy, thinking that maybe the emperor would not blame himself for his poor welcome.

If it was just because the greeting was not timely or the city defense armament was sluggish, of course Emperor Chongzhen would not have to clean him up for this, after all, His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, how could he be embarrassed by a small staff member who couldn't be beaten by eight poles.

But now this Emperor Chongzhen took the opportunity to attack him, but not only because of Juyongguan's slackness in defense or poor preparation, but completely because of Wang Chengyin.

Because the emperor knows what this Wang Chengyin has done in history. If you don't know, then that's it, now that you know, and you happened to run into him without a book, then you must deal with him, and you must not keep such a person to harm yourself or other Ming generals in the future.

Wang Chengyin, who was a little relieved, heard that Wang Guoxing wanted to see the military register of Juyongguan, and he was stunned in his heart, and suddenly realized that I was afraid that this matter was not over, but looking at Wang Guoxing, who had a bad face, and Wang Guoxing's wolf-like Jinyi Wei, Wang Chengyin knew that it would definitely not work if he didn't give it, and if he gave it, maybe there would be a place to turn around, and if he didn't give it, he was afraid that he would have to be taken down on the spot!

In his opinion, of course, there is a problem with this military register, but the problem is not caused by him alone, it has been like this for many years, and what can he do if he is a staff member who has served for less than a year? Does he dare to offend the former Governor of Xiangcheng Boli of the Military Governor's Mansion, or dare to offend his benefactor, Liu Ce and Liu Dashuai, the chief military officer of Jizhen, or go to the former Juyong Guards to turn over old accounts and ask for military salaries? !

He can't afford to offend any of them, so he thinks that he is just Xiao Gui Cao, it was like this in the past, and it is still like this, what can be wrong with him? !

His thoughts are normal, because normal people will think so, but what he never expected was that the emperor wanted to clean him up because he was Wang Chengyin, and he didn't need other reasons.

Even if the city defense of Juyongguan is better than that of Shanhaiguan, Emperor Chongzhen should clean him up or clean him up, but he may have to find other reasons at that time.

Emperor Chongzhen soon saw the military registration and military register of Juyong Pass, and the number of battalions and guards guarding Juyong Pass totaled 3,200 people.

With this military registration in hand, Emperor Chongzhen's heart immediately settled down, and then he talked about some of his ideas with the two ministers of military aircraft and the military attache of the imperial attendant, such as moving the guards outside the Saiwai who moved to Gyeonggi back to Saiwai and so on.

In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, especially in Beizhili and other places since Wanli, various administrative divisions and subordinate relationships between each other are very complicated, there are guards set up along the border in the early Ming Dynasty, such as Yanqing Zhuwei, Miyun Zhuwei, Zhuozhou Sanwei, Kaiping Zhuwei, etc., and even before Shanhaiguan set up a town, there is also a Shanhaiwei, these dozens of guards have been set up in the vicinity of Beiping since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty.

Later, Zhu Di, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, moved the capital from Nanjing to Beijing, and in order to accommodate the soldiers of the Beijing camp, he set up a number of guards directly under the royal family, which is the so-called upper twelve guards.

Later, after the Saibei Zhuwei moved inward, most of them were relocated to the periphery of the Beijing Division, such as Yingzhou Qiantunwei, Zuotunwei, Right Tunwei, Houtunwei, Zhongtunwei, as well as Xingzhou Wuwei, Dongsheng Zhuwei, etc.

In principle, these guards who moved back to Guannai from Saibei were also directly under the emperor. However, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, unlike the later emperors of the Manchu Dynasty, who stubbornly guarded the upper three banners of the Eight Banners, was unwilling to take care of these chores, so it was soon all returned to the Jingying compilation sequence.

This is also the reason why the number of people in the Beijing camp on paper in the middle and late Ming Dynasty reached hundreds of thousands at every turn, and in fact, most of the statistics were originally assigned to the military households of the Beijing camp, but they were just the source of soldiers.

Later, the three battalions of the Beijing Division were sometimes changed to ten regimental battalions, and sometimes changed back to the three battalions, but there was never a fixed number, and those dozens of guards that originally belonged to the emperor and belonged to the management of the Beijing battalion were finally assigned to the Governor's Office of the Five Armies.

These guards were all military establishments, and they were not administratively under the management of the Shuntian Mansion or the Shuntian Governor, and in the end, they were reduced to the free servants of the Marquis Mansion of the Jingshi Gong, and the tuntian of the guards they originally cultivated was also gradually reduced to the private land of these noble generals.

In the end, the officers and soldiers of the guard system are simply not officials, like landlords, and soldiers are not like soldiers, but like tenant farmers or long-term laborers of the landlord's family, and they are a little better than the homeless.

The two ministers of military aircraft no longer shy away from the identities of those imperial attendants and military attachés, just like that, they talked to Emperor Chongzhen one after another about some of the ins and outs of the military, government and civil affairs of the guards around Gyeonggi, and they couldn't bypass the Jingshi Honorable Generals headed by the British Duke, Chengguo Gong and others.

Where have the military attachés of the imperial attendants who were originally on the side of the guards heard about these confidential things before, after listening to them at this time, in addition to the eye-opening, they also felt unfair for the emperor, but they didn't expect that the emperor and his military ministers, who were high in their minds before, actually had so many hardships!

Military attachés like Huang Degong, Fierce as a Tiger, and Hu Dawei, who originally lived at the bottom and fought hard for their lives, were even more full of resentment towards the noble families who ate empty salaries, occupied soldiers, plundered the military land of the guard, and enslaved the military households of the guard! It turns out that these people are the real moth-eater vampires!

These men were talking with the emperor from the tower, and soon half an hour passed, and the sun moved westward, and the hour was already in the past.

At this time, Wang Guoxing came to report that the time had arrived, and the sergeants and soldiers of Guan had gathered under the Yuntai, and asked the emperor and the Minister of Military Aircraft to move to the Yuntai to check the garrison in the Guan.

The so-called Yuntai may be the base of a tower in the city of Juyongguan before the Ming Dynasty, because it is built of a boulder, it is extremely solid, so after the tower on the platform was destroyed in the war, its base base was retained.

The tower above this gimbal was supposed to be a huge street crossing tower, so there is a huge arched passage under the base of the tower.

In this way, the whole PTZ is like a huge stone arch bridge in Juyong Guancheng, with two doorways on both sides, both of which can pass through people, cars and horses.

The so-called gimbal above the arched passage is more than three zhang high.

Therefore, this place can be regarded as a place with a relatively wide field of vision in Juyongguan City, where the situation is dangerous.

When Emperor Chongzhen, accompanied by the two ministers of military aircraft and the escort of twelve imperial attendants, came to Yuntai, at this time, the Yuntai and its surroundings were surrounded by two thousand musket regiments of the Shenji Battalion.

And Wang Chengyin took Liu Zhen, Wang Pei and other generals and military attaches in Juyong Pass, as well as the corporal they had summoned, and waited.
