Chapter 733: The Staff (I)

Xu Pengju's ancestor. It is the famous Zhongshan King Xu Da, after the successive dynasties, are the emperor's general, so the family martial arts atmosphere is very strong, just look at the majestic martial arts field, the fierce banner waving in the wind, you can recall the ancestors of the Xu family.

Accompanied by Xu Pengju, Shen Mo came to the martial arts arena, and saw more than a dozen soldiers kneeling under the steps, which seemed to be the leader who surrendered.

The subordinate moved the chair, silently lifted the placket of the robe, sat down with a big sword and a golden horse, his eyes swept over those people again, the smile on his face gradually froze, he felt that something was wrong, looking at the frightened eyes of these people, the look of grievance, is it really capable of inciting rebellion?

"Are you all there?". Silently, he asked the military attachés who had come to the barracks to negotiate expressionlessly.

A few people hesitated slightly, but still nodded and said, "It's all here." ”

"You promise?" Shen Mo asked lightly, "These are the people you saw?" ”

"That's right, it's them." A few people answered.

"Good." Shen Mo nodded, and then stopped talking. He didn't speak. Xu Pengju and the others were also not easy to make a sound, so they had to wait there quietly, but the people kneeling below felt a huge pressure, and many people's bodies even began to tremble involuntarily.

Xu Pengju finally couldn't hold it back, and said loudly: "My lord, you have something to say......"

"Say what?" He looked at him silently.

"Tell these people about the policies of the imperial court......" Xu Pengju whispered: "Rebellion is a capital crime, surrender leniently, don't make an example or something like that......"

"There's not much to say." Shen Mo waved his hand and said, "Push it down and kill it!" ”

Xu Pengju and other generals were stunned, and the soldiers standing behind those chaotic soldiers did not move, staring at the silence and not turning around, and even the chaotic soldiers kneeling on the ground were stunned, stunned.

"Do you want the official to say it a second time?" Silent and said in a deep voice, this sound woke up the stunned people, a mighty flying fish suit brocade guards lined up, replacing the officers and soldiers of the garrison, two of them, numb hands and feet tied up those chaotic pawns, lifted up like chickens, and were to be escorted to the outer compartment.

The thrashers woke up like a dream, struggling and shouting, "Why don't you count?" "Doesn't it mean that if we turn ourselves in, we will be forgiven?"

"Hmph......" Shen Mo raised his hand, stopped Jinyiwei's movements, and said, "This official is talking about the surrender of those individuals who took the lead in making trouble, not you scapegoats!" As he spoke, he patted the handrail and said, "If you dare to deceive this official, shouldn't you be killed?" ”。

"We're the ones who took the lead." One of them shouted. The rest of the people also chimed in: "Yes, we are all the people who fought the blood that day. ”

"Everyone, I don't believe you'll send someone to inqui......re," the leader shouted.

"There's no need." Shen Mo smiled faintly, and instructed Jinyiwei: "Leave them alone, ask about the cause of the day, the specific details, and immediately ask for a confession and compare it!" ”

"Yes!" There was a single room on the north side of the teaching field, which was supposed to store weapons and armor, and it happened to be used as a temporary interrogation center, so the brocade guards took a dozen rebels, like chickens, to be interrogated separately.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The sky was overcast, and the atmosphere on the school field was even more depressing, sitting there silently, like the eye of a storm, quiet but containing incomparable destructive power, which made people tremble.

Xu Pengju asked with difficulty: "My lord, how can you see that they are fake?" ”

"Grandpa Guo." looked at him silently and calmly and said, "If people don't know, unless you don't do it, this mutiny." What role each person plays, whether he is in front of the stage or behind the scenes, the official is already clear. ”

Listening to Shen Mo's words, it seemed that the soldiers who were talking about it seemed to have something else, which made Xu Pengju and the others nervous, and they casually dealt with it: "My lord's eyes are like electricity, and I ......know everything."

"If only I had a good idea." Shen Mo said lightly: "There are many unlucky." As he spoke, he closed his eyes and recuperated, and hung Xu Pengju and a cadre of generals there, feeling so worried, this is obviously something in the words......

Jin Yiwei's movements were very quick, but after half an hour, thousands of households took the confession, stepped in front of the silence, knelt down on one knee and said, "My lord, I've already finished asking." ”

Shen Mo took it, looked through them one by one, couldn't help laughing, and said: "It seems that their eyes are not very good, ask them what kind of blood they use for the blood alliance, some say it is their own blood, some say it is chicken blood, as well as dog blood, horse blood, and even duck blood...... Could it be that there are too many duck blood fans? ”。

He said it funny, but everyone couldn't laugh, especially the few officers who were full of promises, and knelt on the ground weakly, saying, "Your Excellency is wise, we have something to hide." Only a few of these people were the ones who negotiated with us that day, and the rest were made up by them. ”

"Especially the few leaders, they are not among them." Since someone said it, the others naturally rushed to confess: "They discussed with us at that time, and they were afraid that the imperial court would rebel, so they had to leave half of it in the barracks to guard in case things changed." ”

"Why didn't you tell me?" Shen Mo snorted coldly, stared at them with eyes like swords, and said, "Who are you with in the hell?" ”

The officers didn't dare to speak, Xu Pengju had no choice but to speak up: "They told me about this, and I was also afraid of extraneous branches, so I decided not to tell the adults......" said and squeezed out a smile and said: "Anyway, now that the rebellion has been decided, all you want is to give an explanation to the imperial court, there are a few more or fewer on the list, who is not who, it doesn't matter, for the sake of the overall situation, the rest will be punished in the future......"

"That's too good, but it's too simple......" Shen Mo looked at Xu Pengju, and then at the military attachés below. sneered: "Do you really think that if you kill a few big soldiers, you can give an account to the imperial court?" ”。

"Who knows in a month," he said, slowly getting up and pacing with his hands in his hands, "you guys are here." How many heads will fall to the ground, and how many black yarns will be replaced with shackles? ”

His sentence detonated the panic of all the generals, "We, we are indeed guilty...... Xu Peng raised his sweat like a pulp, and said in a trembling voice: "It is true that there is the crime of negligence first, and then there is the suspicion of covering up, but we do actively assist in quelling the chaos, and it can be regarded as a merit and a demerit, right?" Fewer words"

"Is it really that simple?". Shen Mo wiped the dust on the corner of his clothes, and said in a deep voice: "If you wait for the cruel oppression in the front, and the sedition in the back, if you only help to quell the rebellion, you can cancel the two sides." In the future, who will abide by the laws of the imperial court among the leading generals in the world? ”

"Lord Shen," Xu Pengju felt a kind of anger that had been fooled, and suddenly removed the disguise of cowardice and incompetence, his eyes shot a light of resentment, and said word by word: "Are you crossing the river and demolishing the bridge?" Your assurances are still on your ears! Saying that, he said angrily: "Relying on us to pass the test, but do you want to kill us with a backhand?" Isn't this unloading the mill and killing the donkey! ”

"The official said that if I really know everything, there will be many unlucky people." Shen Mo smiled slightly, walked up to Xu Pengju and said, "Grandpa Guo doesn't understand?" ”。

Seeing that things seemed to be turning around, Xu Peng raised his mouth. I heard a silent voice: "It is said that the promise of this official was made to the rebel soldiers, and I did not promise anything to the generals, but I am not a ruthless person, and I don't want to force people to a dead end...... Otherwise, I wouldn't have had a showdown with you behind closed doors today. ”

Listening to Shen Mo's words, there seemed to be a turning point, Xu Pengju squeezed out a smile and said, "My lord, you are really joking, it's just scared to death." ”

'It's fast enough to change faces. Shen Mo sneered in his heart, sat back in his chair and said: "Now this official will tell you the truth, this Nanjing mutiny, Beijing is furious, and it has decided to severely punish the civil and military involved in the case, so as to enforce military discipline and shock the whole country!" As a civil official, if you are only indirectly responsible, you will definitely have several senior officials to go to work; And you, the generals who directly lead the troops, even if you don't hold you accountable for being greedy and ruthless, and knowing and conniving, you can rip off all your official clothes if you are not strict in controlling your subordinates and cause a mutiny! ”

"If you get rid of all of us," Xu Pengju said with a pale face: "The imperial court is not afraid of more than 100,000 troops in chaos?" ”

"Don't threaten this official......" Shen Mo laughed: "You might as well continue to watch and see who will listen to you." ”

The city defense has been taken over by Qi Jiguang's people, and the nine battalions are in an unrestrained state, Xu Pengju found that he had nothing to threaten and was silent, so he could only stand aside with the officers with a black face to see which one he was going to play.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The real culprits were confessed, and three of them were mixed in with the group of impostors, and Shen silently called the three of them to him. The three of them thought they were now dead, trembled into a mess of mud, and collapsed in front of their silent knees.

Shen Mo said to them with a pleasant face: "Although you are guilty of capital crimes, but for the sake of you being bold enough, this official can be forgiven outside the law, and now answer me, do you want to die or live?" ”

All three said, "I want to live." ”

At this time, Jin Yiwei sent the military registration documents of the three people, and looked at it silently: "You are all natives of Nanjing, there are more than ten people in the family, and dozens of people in the family. Fewer words"

The three of them were so frightened that they kowtowed and said, "This matter has nothing to do with my family members, adults must not be involved." ”

Shen Mo said lightly: "Then you want them to live?" ”

"Let's do whatever we want......"

"Then cooperate with Jinyiwei and arrest all those who take the lead in making trouble." Shen silently commanded: "You can act like this......"

The three of them only responded, and under the escort of Jinyiwei, they left the Guogong Mansion.

The silent gaze turned to the Nanjing generals who were in the dust, and sighed lightly: "The Art of War says, one blow, then decline, three and exhaustion, this is not deceitful, you see these chaotic soldiers, has completely lost the initial fierceness, full of only want to live." ”

The generals were stunned, knowing that he was telling the truth.

"Without you, I can control them as well," Shen Mo stood up, walked in front of the officers and said: "But I Shen someone will not cross the river and tear down the bridge, since I entered the city, you still cooperate with me, so that the rebellion can be quelled so quickly, if it were not for you, this official may still be anxious now, since I have accepted this situation, I will not turn my face and deny people." ”

The generals gave up resistance completely, and all knelt down in front of him and said, "I shouldn't be playing tricks in front of adults, but you are old." "I lifted Xu Peng to hang there, neither standing nor kneeling, and his face was uncertain.

Shen Mo pulled up a few generals who were kneeling on the ground, patted the soil on their bodies, and said softly: "If you know that you are wrong, you can change it, and now that you know that you are wrong, you have obtained half of the forgiveness of the official, and the remaining half depends on your next performance." ”

The generals said, "We know, let's go and capture the rebels and come to redeem them!" ”

"Listen to the unified arrangement of Jinyiwei, they are veterans in this regard." Shen Mo waved his hand and said, "Go ahead!" I'll set up a celebration for you! ”

The generals responded with a bang, and went out.

There are only two left in the martial arts arena, Shen Mo and Xu Pengju, if Shen Mo's performance of overcoming rigidity that day made Xu Pengju amazed, then today's fangs showed his actions, which made Grandpa Guo feel a chill to the bone, and he couldn't say a word.

Shen Mo walked up to him as if nothing had happened, and said, "Grandpa, let's go drink and wait." ”

"Oh......" It took a while for Xu Pengju to come back to his senses, staring at Shen Mo and saying, "What do you want?" ”

Shen Mo smiled like a spring breeze, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Relax, you treat me like a brother, and I naturally treat you as a brother." ”

How could Xu Pengju not hear the meaning of his words...... You use me as a monkey, and of course I use you as a monkey. The smile on his face was more ugly than crying: "Ancestor, alas, why are you so vindictive? "Take a step back, since Shen Mo has always understood everything, of course he knows that on the day he first met, he pretended to be stupid and wanted to trick him.

"One another." Shen Mo said to Xu Pengju: "The Xu family is the first of the Ming Dynasty's ministers, and it has always had a good reputation, so it is not my wish to move you, but don't forget, even the founding prince like King Yi has not been beheaded and withdrawn?" Could it be that you are a duke with a different surname, and your neck can be harder than that of the surname Zhu? Don't do those things that are detrimental to the court, if even you, the founding heroes, begin to dig the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, then our Ming Dynasty is really not far from the country. ”

Xu Peng nodded heavily, just wanting to express his determination. But I heard Shen Mo laugh and said: "I know that these clichés are said in vain, then let's make the point clear, my southeast strategy, although it is a temporary appointment, but it is a decisive step for my career after X, if you do your best to help me do the errand here, in the future, you Xu Pengju will be my brother Shen Shuyan, if you turn your back, the sky will thunder!" ”

Xu Pengju was turned over and over by him like a pancake, knowing that his scheming skills were far from him, and he had no heart to resist for a long time, and said with a wry smile: "I don't dare to take care of you here, anyway, I will look forward to your horse in the future, and follow you wholeheartedly." ”

"Hey, I still want it." Shen Mo said affectionately with him: "To tell you the truth, I was happy when I saw you, that is really called a fate." ”

"Hehe......" Xu Pengju suddenly thought of the matter of silently driving away those beautiful women last night, and he got goosebumps all over his body, and he took off his hand without a trace and said: "Brother, if you are good, I have a good and delicate boy there, delicate and silky is better than a woman." ”

Shen Mo almost fell to the ground, and said with embarrassment: "I like women, not good for that." ”

Xu Pengju was surprised: "Really? ”。 The heart said, is there something unspeakable?

Shen Mo was a little embarrassed and asked him: "Where did Shao Fang's silver come from, don't say you don't know?" ”

Xu Pengju said: "I do know a little bit about this, people want to sell it to you, but the method is too public, and eighty percent of it has already made you dislike." ”

"It's not really coming." Silent and angry, said in his heart that it is so difficult to be a clean and self-righteous man?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the afternoon of the same day, with the close cooperation of the Jinyi Guard, the Nanjing garrison officers, and the leaders of the rebel army who had taken refuge, the soldiers who had taken the lead in making trouble that day and beating Huang Shilang to death were arrested one after another, and a total of more than 50 people were arrested. As for those who reported and exposed the rebels of the same party, they were condemned to death and sent to the northern frontier for meritorious service, and although they advocated chaos, they also had the merit of capturing the rebellion.

At the same time, an order was issued to appease the camps: 'The imperial court will stop punishing the Qukui, and this is the first evil and righteous law, and not a single person will be killed, so that the camps will introspect and repent. Then the army was disciplined and there was no rebound.

The next day, Shen Mo issued another order, saying: 'All the soldiers will change, gather the Zhenwu camp, and the alliance will be bloody.' More than 10 officers of the Zhenwu battalion and the Chinese army knew what they did, so they beheaded Zhou Qiang, the general of the Zhenwu battalion, and blamed the officers in the battalion to be punished. As for the other battalion generals, more than 30 officers, including the chief and deputy commanders, guerrillas, and deputy generals, all of them were guilty of lax management of the troops, resulting in rebellion and punishment. ’

On the same day, he also sent an edict to the battalions: 'Officers and soldiers have the responsibility of guarding the frontier and defending the country, and the imperial court has the responsibility of paying food and wages. 'Then give the battalions that have not been moved in the rebellion double salary, and the officers will be promoted by one rank. No one complained, and the rebellion of the defenders of Nanjing was completely quelled.

He also ordered Qi Jiguang to rectify the Nanjing army, teach it to abide by discipline and law, revitalize military discipline, and lay the foundation for follow-up arrangements.
