Chapter XVIII: Abolition of the Supervision Army and State Farms (2)
When Iron Blood rushed to the Fifth Military Camp, the great eunuch Gao Qiqian was sleeping soundly.
Looking at this fat and fat man, lying on the big bed, like a dead pig, snoring everywhere without saying a word, there was still a long list of haras, for the iron-blooded sergeant who came to search for him, it was an indescribable disgust. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Perhaps in the past, the emperor had not yet formed the 'Iron Blood', and these people were still working hard in Jinyiwei, or Dongchang, seeking to get ahead one day, for such a big eunuch, it was naturally afraid of it.
But now, with the order to capture, for such a big eunuch, naturally he will no longer have too many scruples as in the past.
"Whoa!"
only heard a sound, and saw that a basin of cold water had been poured on the body of the great eunuch and the eunuch Gao Qiqian.
"Oh, who's who, the one who doesn't have long eyes!"
As soon as the water was splashed out, I saw that the high dive was a trembling, to say that these nine cold days, although it was indoors, but a scoop of cold water on the body, it was enough to wake up a person who could not sleep well from his dream.
And just after Gao Qiqian finished scolding, two embroidered spring knives were already on Gao Qiqian's neck.
However, it is said that Iron Blood carries out secret missions, using a dagger similar to the Nepalese Army Thorn, called 'Yan Ling', and is generally used for pursuit tasks, and it is generally embroidered with Jinyiwei, but the only difference between the two is the embroidered spring knife used by this 'Iron Blood', which has Zhu Jian's own inscription on it.
Be brave and loyal, and kill yourself!
If you don't succeed, you will become benevolent, so it has become an iron and steel discipline of 'iron and blood'.
"Grandpa Gao, please!"
It was a big man who spoke, but it was a detachment of the 'Iron Blood' First Guard, equivalent to a hundred households.
In the face of all this in front of him, Gao Qiqian finally came to his senses.
"You are, you are ......"
When he saw the eight big characters engraved on the bright blade, Gao Qiqian understood the identity of this group of people for a while, as an internal official, whether it was heard from the market or from the palace, Gao Qiqian, who was in the supervision of the fifth military camp, naturally understood what the identity of this group of people was.
Therefore, there was a trembling, because he knew what the arrival of these people meant.
If it is said that it is the people from Dongchang, or Jinyiwei, Gao Qiqian boasts that he can escape one or two by virtue of his own years of hard work, but today these people appear in front of him, and the consequences can only be one.
Follow along!
'Iron Blood' doesn't seem to be so cold-blooded, at least before Gao Qiqian was arrested, it was he who made Gao Qiqian change his clothes.
And when he was taken to the Dragon and Tiger Barracks, everything in front of him almost made him faint.
I saw that on the school field at this moment, the lights were bright, and a high platform was built high, but a large cross-shaped wooden frame was tied to it, and the lower head of the high platform was already surrounded by a group of soldiers in an orderly manner.
Looking at the military uniform, Gao Qiqian could also see that these sergeants were a little mixed, at least he saw the people in his five military camps.
And seeing that Gao Qiqian was escorted, which veterans from the Fifth Military Camp were actually a little excited, and they couldn't wait to step forward and eat this Gao Qiqian alive, if it wasn't for the Dragon and Tiger Army to maintain it, I'm afraid this Gao Qiqian would have been 'ridden by 10,000 people'.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Calm down, the so-called state has national laws, and the army has military regulations, Your Majesty will definitely give you an explanation today! ”
Seeing that there was some excitement in the army, Lu Xiangsheng said loudly.
And at this moment, seeing the arrival of this Zhu Jian, Gao Qiqian was a little nervous, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw!
Although he understands who the 'iron will' is, in his heart, the emperor is still his only support, after all, the emperor has been very kind to him over the years, if not, he will never let him go to the five military camps to be the supervisor of the army.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the slave is a high dive, Your Majesty!"
For the ghost crying wolf howl from Gao Qiqian, Zhu Jian frowned slightly. After all, it came from the memory of Emperor Chongzhen, but it let him know that this Gao Qiqian was his confidant eunuch of Chongzhen.
It's just that now the master of the Ming Dynasty is no longer the Emperor Chongzhen who is ambitious and talented, but he Zhu Jian, so in the face of the wail from Gao Qiqian, he Zhu Jian only frowned slightly.
After that, he signaled the 'iron blood' on the side to directly plug this high diving mouth, and then it was the Tao.
"Come on, I have tied up this evil slave, and I will judge this thief today!"
Although he was gagged at the moment, but when he heard the emperor's words, Gao Qiqian really heard it, and at this moment he suddenly felt that he was directly abandoned by the emperor, otherwise why didn't the emperor give him a chance to explain!
Helplessness is followed by endless anger, but for Gao Qiqian, he will never think about why he ended up like this? Because all of that is not enough in his eyes is a matter of course under the imperial power.
It's just that under the absolute imperial power, an outlier who is already dependent on the imperial power, no matter how he struggles, it is just in vain!
"Wait for the soldiers from the five military camps, this person will be tried tonight, and you can only tell your grievances!"
Regarding the emperor's words, those soldiers who were already oppressed spoke up, and for a while some people burst into tears, while others were filled with righteous indignation......
When the soldiers finished telling Gao Qiqian's accumulated crimes, Zhu Jian turned his gaze to the Liu family brothers on the side.
"Two, tonight's interrogation is high, partly because of you, don't you want to say something?"
In the face of what the emperor said, Liu Liangzuo was silent, but he knew in his heart what he had done all these years, maybe he was silent, so as not to anger Gao Qiqian who was tied to the cross too much.
As for the other person, it was because he had been scolding there since he woke up, but he had directly sealed his mouth, and he could only keep 'buzzing' there until now.
Facing Liu Liangzuo's silence, Zhu Jian said with a smile.
"Since you don't say it, then let Gonggong Gao talk about it!"
"Uncover!"
When Gao Qiqian's mouth was able to breathe in the fresh air again, Gao Qiqian was angry at this moment, and the object of anger at this moment was no longer the emperor, but Liu Liangzuo, who was also tied to the ground.
"You're a thousand-cutter! Behind the back of the miscellaneous family is actually to do a rebellious business, now it's good, the harm of the miscellaneous family is also with you, Your Majesty, the slaves are wronged, Your Majesty, the slaves were provoked by these five villains, so they privately withheld military salaries, Your Majesty, this matter is really a fact! ”
Facing the wails of high diving, Zhu Jian naturally understood what was boring.
Why can this Liu Liangzuo form such a force in the army, to a certain extent, it is because of Liu Liangzuo's efforts everywhere, and the easiest thing to make a person famous is not only this, but it is the contrast between people, that is to say, a black face, a white face, naturally singing white face is more popular than singing black face.
Even if these two people are the ones who go all the way!
There was a burst of scolding on the stage, but Zhu Jian didn't stop it, and let him scold for a while.
Hearing the scolding from Gao Qiqian, the soldiers in the audience seemed to understand something, especially those veterans from the Fifth Military Camp, when they recalled that after Gao Qiqian came to the Fifth Military Camp, as well as a series of behaviors and measures of their own battalion officers, it can be said that a seed of doubt has been planted in their hearts at this moment, even if it has not blossomed at this time, but it is enough for Zhu Jian.
"It is a great crime to raise the hidden and deduct military salaries, and to exert yin power indiscriminately, so all official positions are stripped of them, their furniture is confiscated, and they are distributed to their hometowns!"
This is Zhu Jian's final verdict on Gao Qiqian, and the reason why he didn't kill Gao Qiqian is partly because he is suspected of being bewitched, and on the other hand, he Gao Qiqian is at least loyal to the emperor, of course, as long as Zhu Jian understands this.
And just after the verdict of Gao Qiqian was announced, Zhu Jian then announced another piece of happy news.
Since then, the Ming army no longer has eunuchs to supervise the army, and at this moment, as for the eunuch generals in the field, they should be recalled one by one!
Of course, with the announcement of this news, Zhu Jian also ordered the cabinet to draft a decision on the establishment of a party branch in the army, which means that from today onwards, the Ming army should replace the eunuch supervision system with the imperial party branch!
"Father-in-law Gao, this one hundred taels of silver was handed over to you by His Majesty, saying that it was used as your placement fee!"
At the moment when he received the white taels of silver handed to him, Gao Qiqian fell to his knees, and the remorse on his face was already written on his fat face.
"Your Majesty, it's a slave who can't stand you!"
It's a pity, no matter how much you regret it, it's already too late, not to mention that there is no regret medicine in the world!
Gao Qiqian was sent home, and as for the main generals of the rebellion, including the Liu family brothers, they were all sent to prison, in his words Zhu Jian, it was a great gift not to be killed on the spot!
"Wen is weak, I have decided to comprehensively reform the Beijing camp, and these rebellious soldiers are no longer suitable to stay in the Beijing camp."
"And what does Your Majesty mean?"
"I still have a lot of land in Zhili, but I want to organize these sergeants collectively and cultivate them, of course, unlike the Imperial Guard system, although these sergeants retain their military status, they will be subordinate to the General Logistics Department of the War Department, which will be established soon, they will cultivate the land for me, and I will pay them salaries!"
