(I'm going home, take the train, the sixteenth train, I can't upload it during the day, but now it's uploaded, and when I get home, the updates will increase.) There are few updates these days, sorry brothers. ）

Each of the three battalions is led by a commander, a minister, and a commander. Each army and each division is divided into battalion officers, commanders, commanders, commanders, and ministers. When Hong Xi was in power, he ordered the military minister to be the prime minister of the three major battalions. In peacetime, the five military battalions practiced battalion formations, the 3,000 battalions practiced patrols, and the Shenji battalion practiced firearms. When the emperor personally marched, the three major battalions were guarded in the emperor's camp, generally the Shenji battalion was outside, the cavalry was in the middle, and the infantry was inside.

When the three major battalions of the Beijing Army were first established, they were quite combat-effective. However, in the civil and engineering changes, the 500,000 Beijing army was annihilated, and the main force was completely lost. During the Jingtai period, Yu Qian, the secretary of the military department, reformed the establishment of the Beijing battalion, selected 100,000 elites from the three major battalions, and divided them into ten battalions for regimental training, in case of emergency call, called the tenth regiment battalion. Ten regimental battalions? It is led by a general military officer, and the superintendent is a minister, a military secretary or a capital imperial historian as the commander. Each battalion is divided into governors, trumpet officers, commanders, commanders, team leaders, battalion and other officers. The regulations of Beijing have changed so far.

At the beginning of the day after tomorrow, the ten regiments and battalions were dismissed. At the beginning of Chenghua, the old system of the 10th regiment battalion was restored, and it was relocated in two years, and it was relocated in three years, and it was increased to 12 regiments and battalions, which were called the four martial arts battalions of Fen, Yao, Lian and Xian, and the four brave battalions of daring, fruitfulness, effectiveness and drumming, and the four Wei battalions of Li, Shen, Yang and Zhen. The 12 regiments and battalions were divided by the 12 marquis, with the command of the capital and the internal ministers. Each regiment and battalion is divided into five armies, three thousand, and three battalions. At the time, it was called "Choosing the Front".

At the beginning of Zhengde, only 60,000 and 500 soldiers were selected from the 12th regiment battalion, and the emperor was greatly displeased. So tens of thousands of border troops were transferred to the Weijing Division, known as the "Outer Four Army", Jiang Bin once commanded the Four Outer Army, fought in the south and the north, and also established a great reputation. Later, two official halls were set up, the east official hall drilled the officers and soldiers selected at the beginning of Zhengde, and the west official hall selected regimental battalions and warriors and four guards for drills. From now on. The two official halls are called "Xuanfeng", and the 12th regiment battalion is called "hometown".

After 30 years of Zhengde. The military system was overhauled, the east and west official halls and the 12 regiments and battalions were abandoned, and 300,000 warriors were recruited across the country. The rebuilding of the Beijing army, divided into three battalions, and for several consecutive years, Kaienke, take the Wujinshi, take the Wujinshi, take the Wujinshi, enrich the officer strength in the Beijing camp, and at the same time re-set the establishment of the 26 guards, outside the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, directly under the emperor.

This defense of the capital has always been an errand under the hands of the five military battalions in the Beijing army. Later, when Zhengde rebuilt the Beijing camp, the Beijing camp and the upper 26th guard broke their heads for the defense of the capital, and the dog's brains came out. As a result, it annoyed Emperor Zhengde. This is also a master who does not play cards according to common sense, and in a fit of anger, he actually gave the fattest errand in the defense of the capital to the soldiers and horses of the five cities......

What is the Five Cities Terracotta Division? To put it bluntly, it was miscellaneous and firefighting. Cleaning up the swill, the five soldiers and horses in the east, west, south, south, and middle, the highest commander in it is just a six-rank official!

Six-grade officials? I don't know that there are tens of thousands of hundreds of thousands of the three battalions of the Beijing army and the 26th guard!

Can you look down on the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses? But Emperor Zhengde still committed the evil crime, that is, he forcibly handed over the defense of the nine gates to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses.

Originally, the guard of Xizhi Gate was a general banner under the Fifth Army Battalion's Loyal and Filial Piety Battalion, and now, it is the Xicheng Soldiers and Horses Command Division, and the Zhengliupin Yamen has a commander and four deputy commanders, and the one guarding the city gate is one of the four deputy commanders.

At this time, the sound of bursting horses' hooves suddenly sounded, several fast horses galloped from a distance, galloped all the way to the dark and towering under the Beijing city wall in the night, under the towering arrow tower, the knights suddenly reined in the horses, a few war horses Herod neighed, two bowl-sized front hooves raised in the air, but it was a forced pause for a moment, showing the god horse of the horse and the knight on the horse that is extremely superb equestrian. …,

It stands to reason that when they arrived here, they should also dismount, but they did not dismount, on the contrary, they rode their horses anxiously at the city gate, and circled in small circles, and seemed to be extremely impatient and excited. The night is dark, and I can't really see it, but I can see that they are all dusty and dusty, with tiredness on their faces, obviously they have been running around on the horse for a long time, and the leader is a middle-aged military attache with a big beard, wearing a mountain armor, it seems that the grade is not low.

"Open the door, open the door."

The middle-aged military attache actually rode his horse directly to the vicinity of the city gate, and the war horse didn't know whether it was a fierce temperament or a mistake, and with the momentum of the forward rush, the two front hooves slammed into the city gate, and the horseshoe and the copper nail the size of the bowl of the city gate slammed together, making a crisp sound of gold and iron, and the heavy city gate couldn't help but tremble slightly.

The sound of horses' hooves just now was originally alarming the soldiers on the city, and they came out of the city gate tower one after another, and looked down from the city, but the city wall was also high, bright on the top and black on the bottom, and they really couldn't see anything.

The nine gates of the capital, this point is closed, and the military generals below shouted like this, which surprised them even more, these dozens of people on the head of the city have also been on errands for a long time, guarding the city for more than ten years, but it is the first time to encounter such a thing - according to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, once the city gate is closed, everything will not be opened. Previously, no matter which province had a discount or how many important official matters there were, no one dared to knock on the city gate like this when it was not open.

What are the origins of these people, and what are the important things?

"What's wrong? What's wrong with this? "The deputy commander of the Xicheng Soldiers and Horses Division who is responsible for the guard of Xizhi Gate is called Wan Nianchun, this name is not difficult to hear, but Wan Nianchun has a more resounding nickname, and everyone in Xicheng can be said to know it - Wan Nian Sun.

As the name suggests, you can see from this name alone that the character of this deputy commander of Wannian Sun Wan. When this Wannian Sun Wan was thirteen years old, his father relied on the face of being a horseman for the commander of the Five Cities Terracotta Division for a lifetime, and entered the Five Cities Terracotta Division through the back door, and made up an errand for street patrols. No coat, nothing, just two legs! No matter in spring, summer, autumn or winter, no matter how cold or hot it is outside, you have to walk around the patrol area on two legs. Freezing to death in winter, the only more comfortable autumn and winter season is still raging with strong winds. The sand and dust are billowing and people have to cover their noses when they walk on the street!

There are three hundred and sixty-five days in a year, and there are three days of rest during the New Year.

In fact, Jinyiwei also patrols the streets. It's just that fifty percent of the soldiers and horses are compared with others, which can be said to be a heaven and an underground, what kind of power is Xuanhe of Jinyiwei? Those brocade-clothed riders who patrol the streets eat wherever they go, eat for nothing and take too much for nothing, none of those shopkeepers dare to say anything, and no one dares to offend these uncles! But what about the cruises of the Five Cities Terracotta Division? If you dare to go into those restaurants and restaurants, just wait to eat the big eyes! You don't give money? In the mood for a bully meal? Send you to Shuntian Mansion for a lawsuit!

The Five Cities Terracotta Division is a bird's egg?

Master Wannian Sun Wan is forty-eight years old this year, and he has been in the Yamen of the Five Cities Terracotta Division for more than 30 years. No one dares to offend, and everyone looks smiling when he sees them - of course, if he is a flat-headed ordinary person who knows you well, he has to feel the majesty of the ten thousand adults. …,

Later, he became an official and climbed up step by step. This character has not changed, he has been a gatekeeper in this Xizhimen for five years, but he has not made a mistake, relying on this grandson's strength! No one can be offended, and whoever sees a smiling face will not do anything about carrying the black pot. No one can find anything wrong!

Because of this, the nickname of this 10,000-year-old grandson was born.

Wan Niansun is most afraid of causing trouble in this life, he pulled his cotton shoes, hurriedly came out of the city gatehouse, and beckoned: "Hurry up, hurry up, take a picture, take a picture of the next head!" ”

There was an answer from the side, and a large lantern more than a person high hung down, and when he looked down through this light, Lord Wannian Sun gasped above the city gate.

There were a total of seven or eight people who came, and among them there was a thousand households with the advance of the Yulin in the middle of the 26 guards - the upper 26 guards of the Gongwei Jing Division, and their armor and robes were different, and they all had a little bit of their own characteristics, which was quite imaginary in the West. As the head snake of old Beijing, Wan Niansun knows all about these things in the capital, and his eyebrows and eyes are transparent, so he can naturally see it at a glance.

And this is nothing, what makes him even more shocked is that among these people, there is actually a hundred households in brocade clothes wearing flying fish suits! I am looking at myself coldly!

This combination is a bit scary.

Cold sweat broke out on his body here, but the little leaders and soldiers under his command were still ignorant and didn't quite understand, many people were lying on the battlement wall with their feet crossed and looking down at the excitement, and more than a dozen bed crossbowmen and archers came out of the arrow tower, yawning and cursing in their mouths.

No one takes the people below seriously, everyone thinks in their hearts and understands, anyway, our duty is to guard the door, as long as the door is guarded, then there is nothing wrong with it, no matter what, this door can't be opened, love what's the matter, who the fuck is coming!

Wan Nianchun already had a premonition that something big seemed to have happened, but after all, he was a person who couldn't take responsibility, thought about it, stiffened his head, and shouted down boldly: "This master, it's not that the small one doesn't open the door, it's really an order from above, it's not a little, this door, it can't be opened!" The little one kowtows to the master, you give a way to live, this matter, the little master can't do it! ”

Before the words fell, the bearded Qianhu below was already scolding: "Let your mother's bullshit, don't talk nonsense with Lao Tzu here, it's a matter of the Northwest War, Lao Tzu has a big stake here, how many heads do you have?" Hurry up and open the door, or I'll pluck your dog's head! ”

"Northwest War?"

There was a commotion in the city, and everyone secretly wondered, seeing that these people were so anxious, could it be another big defeat in the northwest?

Wan Nianchun was also sweating on his forehead, trembling in his heart, and it was difficult to make a decision, at this time, the brocade clothes behind the man added coldly: "If there is anything, I will bear it, you can rest assured." ”

Wan Nianchun wanted this sentence, and hurriedly laughed dryly: "Look at what you said, such a big thing, can the small one not be allowed to go?" ”

As he spoke, he turned around and jumped to the soldiers behind him and scolded: "Quick, open the city gate quickly!" Something that doesn't have long eyes. Don't you see the adults still waiting down there? ”

The soldiers cursed in their hearts, but they were sharp in their hands, and they hurried down the city wall, went to the doorway, and opened the gate.

As soon as the door opened a crack three feet wide, the bearded Qianhu rode forward, and the war horse rushed wildly. rushed through this gap, fortunately the few in front of him dodged quickly, otherwise they would have been hit by such a huge war horse. It's a human life!

The soldiers who opened the door were all scolding in their hearts, but they didn't dare to let go of a fart on their mouths, and the knights outside rushed in. They hurriedly closed the door again. …,

The bearded Qianhu looked at Wan Nianchun, sneered and scolded: "Sure enough, it's the grandson of the Five Cities Terracotta Division, something without eggs!" Bah! ”

A mouthful of thick phlegm spat on the ground and walked away.

Wan Nianchun watched these knights disappear into the distance, the smile on his face that had been hanging on his face instantly retracted, and he scolded in a low voice: "Fuck your mother, the grandson of Yulin's avant-garde, you don't have the ability to fight with King Hami, come here to make Lao Tzu angry!" Lao Tzu will give you incense and fight a defeated battle. One by one, they went to the court and cut off their heads! ”

One of his henchmen next to him echoed with a greedy face: "We think the same way, these grandsons deserve to be defeated!" ”

Laughter erupted from the city walls.

A group of knights and horses galloped on the deserted street under the night, and the sound of popping horses' hooves spread far and wide, and I don't know how many people were awakened from their good dreams.

All the way. Soon arrived at Xi'an Gate, which is the West Gate of the Imperial City.

The Ming Dynasty Beijing City is a big city with the imperial city, the imperial city is set with the palace city, that is, the pattern of the Forbidden City, the Ming Imperial City is outside the palace city, and the circumference is eighteen miles. Lack of its southwest corner, north and south long five miles and fifty zhang kilometers, east and west wide five miles, its area, is ten times the size of the Forbidden City, the east is the palace city, the west is the West Garden, the middle is the Taiye Pond, that is, the Beihai, Zhonghai, the South China Sea of the later generations, the north is the Jingshan where Emperor Chongzhen hanged, and the south is the Sheji altar, the Taimiao and so on.

In the same way, he opened the Xi'an Gate, and then galloped all the way to the outside of the Forbidden City.

The bearded general didn't dare to be rampant anymore, and he sprinkled under the Purple Gold City, it was purely looking for death.

Therefore, it can only be a rapid change.

Sudden change refers to the important and important performance.

According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, once the Forbidden City is locked, it cannot be opened until the bells and drums are ringing, and what if there is any major event to be played at this time? So the courtiers wrote the paperwork, told the story in detail, and stuffed it through the crack in the door.

The group was also quite well prepared, and the paperwork had already been written, and they were thrown in through the crack in the palace gate.

The guards of the Forbidden City are also on the 26th guard, and in the 26th guard, the person responsible for guarding the imperial city and the palace has always been the avant-garde of the government army, the standard-bearer guard, and the brocade guard before the Zhengde year. Coincidentally, the one guarding this palace gate today is the avant-garde of Yulin, who has long recognized this bearded Qianhu, and also knows that something big has happened, so he didn't dare to slack off at all, took the chapter, and hurried all the way in the direction of Longzongmen.

Longzong Gate is on the west side of the square in front of the Qianqing Gate of the Forbidden City, facing west, and standing opposite to the Jingyun Gate on the east side, with the same shape. The face is wide and five, the yellow glazed tile single eaves rest on the top of the mountain, the single ang three step on the bucket arch, the Ming is made throughout, the beam is painted with ink line and the big point gold spindle color painting. The bright room and the two rooms are opened as the doorway, and the door is located at the golden pillar of the back eaves. There are slow lanes inside and outside the doorway to facilitate the entry and exit of vehicles.

This gate is an important passage between the inner court and the outer court west road and the west garden, and it is an important forbidden door close to the emperor's residence.

As soon as you enter this gate, it is the inner court, and the soldiers of the forbidden army of the Twenty-six Guards are no exception, so they have to stop outside and hand over the documents to the internal officials inside you.

These little eunuchs didn't dare to stop for a moment, for fear of taking on the responsibility, so they quickly went to the direction of the Qianqing Palace to ask for rent.

The rules in the palace of the Ming Dynasty are strict, and there are rules and regulations for standing and sitting, and the boundary with the biggest rules in the palace is naturally the Qianqing Palace.

Outside the Qianqing Palace, the lights are bright, dozens of eunuchs are divided into several waves, constantly patrolling around, the Qianqing Palace is very large, there are waiters inside, there are eunuchs on duty outside, there are always hundreds of people inside and outside serving the emperor, the palace maids and eunuchs are in charge of the night head, once there is something, they can respond immediately.

The eunuch on duty at night today is Liu Jixiang, the eunuch of the imperial horse eunuch.

As soon as the eunuchs who reported the news came, it naturally caused a commotion, and when he heard the noise outside, Liu Jixiang immediately put on his clothes and got up.

"What's wrong?" Liu Jixiang stood on the steps and asked with a frown.

The little eunuch who reported the news was Liu Jixiang's godson who recognized his godson, and when he saw the old lady, he immediately jumped into the ground, raised his hands above the top and said: "Godgrandpa, someone outside the palace sent a sudden change in." ”

"Sudden change?" Liu Jixiang's face changed slightly, and he also knew that in addition to the great event, he quickly took the document and took a brief look, and after reading it, his complexion changed several times, and it had become extremely ugly.

Yan Yi, the young eunuch of the capital governor who was on duty at the same time, also hurriedly walked over, and when he saw this, he hurriedly asked, "Grandpa Liu, what's wrong?" ”

"Defeat in the Northwest! Suffer heavy casualties in battle! Liu Jixiang shook the paperwork in his hand, and his face sank like water: "What the emperor is most concerned about is the war in the northwest and northwest of Annan, counting the days, at this time, the 200,000 army has just come out of Jiayu Pass, why is it defeated?" Let's go, wake up the emperor! If it is until tomorrow, I can't say whose fault it is. ”

"Huh?" As soon as he said this, Yan Yizheng was also shocked.

Not daring to slack off, the two hurriedly entered the Qianqing Palace on their front and back feet. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
