"The thing has been taken, though. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info "The dusty Wang Yan looked at Zhang Cheng with some uncertainty," he said, and he still had to follow orders. ”

"Hmm." Zhang Cheng, who was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, nodded casually: "It's good to be able to take things." As the absolute henchman of Shousuke, if it weren't for the fact that I was treated as Shousuke's successor before, I wouldn't have been able to catch up with him at all. He is the commander of the garrison who is in charge of the fate of life and death in the imperial capital. If it was so easy to be impressed, it would have been wiped out a long time ago. ”

"But he's taken a lot of things from you." Wang Yan looked at Zhang Cheng with some confusion.

"It doesn't matter what I received before, because he and I are both from the Shousuke line." Zhang Cheng smiled and picked up the cigarette case on the coffee table, took out one and lit it, "Now that Shousuke has already shown hostility to me, he dares to accept something, which means that he also understands that because of the previous contact with me, Shousuke's distrust of him began to appear." With contact, anything can happen. If I'm not mistaken, it won't be long before the garrison commander moves his position. And he knows it very well in his own heart. ”

"Is that so?" Wang Yan's face was surprised. The intricacies of the tricks made him feel a little dizzy.

As Shoufu's absolute confidant, the commander who controls the imperial capital garrison is actually willing to make eye contact with Zhang Cheng when Shoufu has already expressed his attitude towards Zhang Cheng. This kind of thing made Wang Yan completely incomprehensible.

"It's just self-preservation." Zhang Cheng glanced at him and explained in a loud voice, "Because of the contact between us, Shousuke has doubts about his trust, which is a must have been thought by the superiors. After all, where he sat under his ass was too important. As long as there is even the slightest suspicion, he will not be able to continue to be trusted, and he will have no choice. ”

"So what now?" Wang Yan's expression was a little worried, and he said, "Without the imperial capital garrison, no one wants to do it." Once we launch, they will be able to drive into the imperial capital in a few hours. ”

"Don't worry, he's already taken it." Zhang Cheng narrowed his eyes and said softly, "He's not stupid, he naturally understands that Shousuke has developed a distrust of him, this kind of thing is certain." He would definitely carry out the order when he received the order to enter the imperial capital, but it would have been at least a few hours late. That's enough for me. ”

"What are you going to do?" Wang Yan asked softly, "Even if the garrison arrives a few hours late, will we be able to succeed?" The power of all forces in the imperial capital is not small. ”

As the most important core of power in the entire empire, the Ming Emperor had extremely strict control over the armed forces of all parties. Even a general of Zhang Cheng's level can only maintain a platoon of guard strength at most. Although he could use bodyguards and other methods to quietly send some troops into the imperial capital, there would never be too many of them.

The largest armed force in the entire imperial capital is the garrison. This corps-level force, consisting of three infantry divisions and one cavalry division, was the most powerful force in the entire imperial capital and the surrounding area. They are stationed on the outskirts of the Imperial Capital, and once they receive an order, they can drive into the core area of the Imperial Capital within a few hours. In the face of such military force, no one can resist it.

The garrison of the imperial capital was an armed force personally controlled by the first assistant Zhang Yue. Zhang Yue has been in charge of Daming for decades, and he knows this kind of thing very well. Without this army under Zhang Yue's personal control, the Ming court would have known how many times it had happened. It's changed.

In addition to the garrison, the largest armed forces in the imperial capital are the Imperial Guard and the City Garrison.

The Royal Guard is primarily responsible for the security of the Royal Palace. It is said that it is the royal guard, but in fact it is controlled by the family consortium. This is an armed force that monitors and alerts the royal family.

The city garrison is also controlled by Zhang Yue. It was his protective force in the city. Both forces numbered around three thousand people. Well-armed and well-trained, it is a true elite of arms.

Then there are the Army Command and the Navy Command, as well as the garrisons of various important branches of the army. The number of these armies is mostly between a few hundred and one or two thousand. Among them, the Army Command and the Navy Command are the most powerful.

As the most powerful institution of violence, no force dares to interfere with the movement of the army and navy. But it's basically impossible for them to be involved in this kind of thing.

In addition, the various families within the family consortium have a private army of varying numbers. These private armies were originally used to protect the various family members.

Previously, because of Zhang Yue's disagreement with the family consortium, their numbers were strictly suppressed. However, at this moment, when Zhang Yue and the family consortium reach a tacit understanding, there may be a change in the number. In addition to this, the imperial capital also has a large number of police forces, including many elite armed police.

Theoretically, these are Zhang Cheng's enemies, which is also an important reason why many people are not optimistic that he will be able to turn over. Even if he wanted to use force, he didn't have enough capital in the imperial capital.

"There are too few of our people, even if Zhang Da's people can come in smoothly, they are only a few hundred people, and it is impossible to resist such a powerful counterattack no matter what." Wang Yan said worriedly.

"Then transfer troops, as many troops as possible." Zhang Cheng spoke in a deep voice.

"Where are the troops from?" Wang Yan smiled bitterly and said, "Around the imperial capital, only the newly formed Fifth Airborne Division can listen to your command. But how many can they fight? Moreover, I have received information that the Supreme High Command has begun to discuss the transfer of the 5th Airborne Division away from the vicinity of the imperial capital. ”

"Time is running out, and we have to hurry up." Zhang Cheng narrowed his eyes, and a sharp color flashed in his eyes, "We have soldiers, and I started to prepare a few years ago." Just didn't think it would really work on the day. ”

"Huh?" Wang Yan looked at Zhang Cheng with a puzzled expression. He was confused by Zhang Cheng's words. As Zhang Cheng's most important right-hand man and intelligence officer, no one can know better than him how much strength Zhang Cheng has. He thought left and right, how could he not think of where there would be troops loyal to Zhang Cheng near this imperial capital?

"You forgot? I have many factories on the outskirts of the city! Zhang Cheng's words lit up Wang Yan's mind like a bolt of lightning. He slapped his thigh hard suddenly, "That's right! We are an arms factory, tens of thousands of young and middle-aged workers! Arm them and be a decisive force! ”

Zhang Cheng opened a number of factories near the imperial capital, producing aircraft and tanks. These factories are all Zhang Cheng's private enterprises, and the employees also eat Zhang Cheng's food.

These workers undergo regular and rigorous military training every year, which is far less than that of the regular army, but at least of the standard of the militia. Moreover, the vast majority of the employees in these factories are young and middle-aged, which is the most suitable group for military service.

The companies and factories of this era are far from being as humanized as modern time and space. The factory is the private property of the owners or shareholders, and the workers are indentured. Eat the boss's food, take the boss's money, then you have to do things for the boss. Not to mention that Zhang Cheng has always been generous, and the treatment he provided to the workers was very good, and his prestige among the workers was extremely high. With an order, there was no difficulty in quickly pulling out a quasi-army of tens of thousands.

"I really didn't expect you to start the arrangement so early." Wang Yan's admiration for Zhang Cheng at this moment is really like a surging river. This kind of unbelievable preparation started a few years ago, and it's simply non-human.

"Be prepared." Zhang Cheng waved his hand, unwilling to continue the topic, "In terms of weapons, you take my slip to the factory, and I have secret arsenals in all factories. They carry out strict military training every year, and the supervisors at all levels in the factory are officers. In other words, all the tanks and armored vehicles produced and stored in the warehouse are directly detained and armed in the tank factory, and I have prepared all kinds of ammunition in the secret warehouse. The Imperial Capital has no power to fight against armored forces! The people in these factories are the ones who really tie the interests to me. ”

As the director of the armored forces, Zhang Cheng is the person who knows the strength of the armored forces best. Don't look at the elite forces in the imperial capital, but there is no unit that can withstand the attack of the armored troops. This is a hole card that has been in ambush in Zhang Cheng's hands for several years.

"In addition to force, I need friends." Zhang Cheng took a deep breath and stood up, raised his hand and sorted out the military uniform on his body, "No one can do everything alone, I also need friends." Prepare the car, I'm going to the Army Command. ”

......

"You." In the Army Commander's Office, Marshal Yang Zhuo, who had a lot of black hair a few years ago, was already full of white hair at the moment, looking at Zhang Cheng who was sitting on the sofa with worried eyes, and after sighing, he could only shake his head helplessly.

"I don't want to." Zhang Cheng spread his hands and said helplessly, "Someone else has put the knife on my neck, I can't watch myself be slaughtered, right?" ”

Nominally, Yang Zhuo was a person who belonged to the Shoufu faction. After all, without the support of the first assistant, he would not have been able to achieve the position of commander-in-chief of the army. But after really achieving this position, it would be a joke to say who he is. After the power in his hands swelled to a certain extent, it was impossible for anyone to grasp the commander-in-chief of the Ming Army.

"You're the best soldier I've ever met." Yang Zhuo sat opposite Zhang Cheng and looked at Zhang Cheng with complicated eyes, "An excellent young man like you should spread his wings and soar on the battlefield, instead of falling on the dark arrow shot from behind." ”

Zhang Cheng was silent and looked at Yang Zhuo silently. He knew that no matter how much Yang Zhuo admired him, it was impossible to be on his side. And he didn't come here today to win Yang Zhuo to be on his side.

"What are you going to do?" After a while, Yang Zhuo still asked the question he was most concerned about. (To be continued.) )
