Chapter 189: New Military Regulations, Want to Establish Authority
"Didn't you notice that there were no people around this barracks? This barracks is five miles away, but no one can get close to it. Yang Xin explained stupidly: "Your Majesty has a word, everything here, it is strictly forbidden for anyone to reveal a single thing to the outside world, not to mention, even if the younger brother says it, will you believe it?" ”
“…… This is true, if the third brother wants to tell me that someone trains the army and trains clothing, food, housing and transportation, I may have to clean you up. Yang Jun scratched his chin, and after thinking about it very seriously, he came up with an answer that he thought was more reliable.
"You...... Gotta make you my brother. Yang Xin felt that his brain was really hurting, and the second brother, who had no righteousness, had already slipped behind the buttocks of the Emperor Taishang, and the ghosts and ghosts looked at this side reverently, and when he saw that he was glaring at the past, he quickly pretended to look around blankly as if he couldn't see anything, and followed the Emperor Taishang with a strong breeze under his feet.
Yang Xin could only lead these two new generation generals of the Ming Dynasty who were like curious babies to follow behind the buttocks of this vote of people, and from time to time he had to deal with their childish questions, well, although he was similar at the beginning, but at least now, he has a little more superiority in front of these two.
"By the way, third brother, what did Your Majesty mean by letting me and General Shi come here?" After Yang Jun looked at the novelty for a long time, he couldn't help but ask again. And Shi Biao, who was also impatient on the side, couldn't help but say: "Yes, doesn't Your Majesty want us to go back to Beijing to train according to this method?" ”
Hearing this, Yang Xin couldn't help grinning, and glanced back at the two: "I said, you have violated military discipline in the army, and His Majesty the Emperor has not dealt with you yet, do you think you can go back?" ”
"This ......" Although they hadn't slept all night, Yang Jun and Shi Biao, who were dazzled by the things in this brand-new barracks, couldn't help but be stunned, and looked at each other with some humility, almost forgetting about it, thinking of Zhu Qizhen's strange gaze and the evil smile on the corner of his mouth last night. I really don't understand what kind of tricks His Majesty the Emperor will use to clean himself up.
However, these two are military people after all, after thinking about it, they left those worries behind, and if they violated the military order, they had to be willing to be a military lawyer, which is not only available today, not to mention that they bumped into the hands of the emperor, and they didn't clean up, even if they both felt sorry for themselves, of course, no one wanted their butts to bloom, blue and purple green.
Both of them were secretly wondering, when the emperor remembered how to clean himself up, should he be more humble and heavy in admitting his guilt, after all, the military battle is more difficult to bear.
After passing -------------------- the open school grounds, I saw a large hall in the barracks not far ahead, where dozens of guns of all kinds were placed, in addition to the artillery, there were all kinds of guns, but there were also a large number of firearms that had been dismantled into parts, so that the inside of this barracks was like a waste metal recycling station.
And in this room, there are only a few little officials holding strange pens and quickly recording something, and there are more than a dozen craftsmen dressed in people's costumes who are groping for something, and they are communicating in whispers from time to time, not noticing Zhu Qizhen and other people passing by the door.
Zhu Qizhen just looked inside at the door, and then left quietly, and Yang Jun couldn't help but whisper to Yang Xin about what the people in this barracks were doing.
"Your Majesty has said, the benefits of our Daming firearms can be described as unparalleled in the world, but the development of firearms is not easy, and it is not easy to maintain, besides, the varieties of our Daming firearms are too complicated, and there is no clear corresponding use, so Your Majesty specially hired these skilled old craftsmen to see if you can try to improve my Daming firearms, and reduce some unnecessary types, so that it is much more convenient to maintain."
After hearing Yang Xin, Mo said that it was Yang Xin, and even Shi Biao couldn't help but high-five and agreed: "This is indeed the truth, our Daming firearms are unparalleled in the world, but it is too complicated, in the Jingshi Shenji Battalion, there are more than a dozen kinds of firearms, and the artillery is also very complicated, and if it is slightly damaged, it can only be discarded, and it is difficult to repair." If you can reduce the types, not only can the training time be shortened......"
The three of them walked all the way to the end of the crowd, communicating quietly all the way, and everyone followed the footsteps of Zhu Qizhen, walking, stopping, and looking. It took a quarter of an hour to come to a halt in front of a barracks with only a few small windows and a closed gate.
"Yang Jun, Shi Biao, you two come here." Zhu Qizhen stood here, raised his hand and saluted the soldier standing guard at the gate first, and then turned around and raised his hand to greet these two guys with sneaky expressions.
"Weichen is here, what does Your Majesty command?" Yang Jun and Na Shi Biao could only step forward and walked to Zhu Qizhen's side and saluted.
"The two of you commanded the army outside, escorted His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to Xuanfu, all the way, quite hard, and were meritorious ministers, but it is equivalent to violating the military order again, so the merit can be rewarded, but the punishment is also indispensable." Zhu Qizhen waved his horsewhip, slapped it in his palm, stood in front of the row of barracks, paced slowly, and said in a deep voice, at this moment, all the generals who came with him did not dare to speak.
"Weichen is guilty and is at the disposal of His Majesty." Seeing that there were no torture instruments on the left and right, and there were no guards with knives and sticks, the two of them were secretly happy, but they had a sad look on their faces.
Zhu Qizhen looked at these two guys, listened to their tones, and didn't know what the hell these two bad guys were thinking, but he didn't bother to break it, he smiled, and grinned to reveal his white teeth that were brushed every day: "Since you have entered this military camp, then, you should follow the new military regulations, what do you two think?" ”
"This, I don't know this new military regulations, how to deal with brawls in the army?" Yang Jun quietly glanced at the barracks, which looked a little gloomy, and asked with anxiety in his heart.
"Where is Wang Qing?" Zhu Qizhen's expression suddenly became serious, and he said in a low voice. Wang Jinchang strode out and replied abruptly: "Back to Your Majesty, according to the new military regulations, all those who fight privately in the army will be demoted to two levels and confined for ten days, and those who recidivist will be expelled from the army and removed from the army!" ”
Hearing this disposition, not only Yang Jun and Na Shi Biao, but also the other generals who came with Zhu Qizhen and did not know much about the new military law heard this disposition, and they couldn't help but change their colors and take a cool breath.
Although everyone doesn't understand what confinement is, looking at this gloomy barracks, I think it should mean imprisonment, ten days of imprisonment, what is this? Outrageously light. However, this is no joke.
Shi Biao and Na Yang Jun are now both four-rank generals, and if they jump up, they will be generals who can lead an army alone. This is also because one of these two is the favorite general of the Son of Heaven, and the other is with his father in the border towns of many battles, and he has come to the country with a lot of achievements.
--------------------, private fights in the army can be said to be frequent, and the punishment is mostly cleaned up with military sticks, generally, it will not involve demotion at all, after all, if you don't practice martial arts, you want to rise in official positions, and the hardships are obvious.
And now, just because of a private fight in the army, he was demoted by two levels, and the fourth-grade generals fell directly to the fifth-grade, you know, no matter which dynasty, the ** grade to the seventh grade, this is a hurdle, and from the fifth grade to the fourth grade, it is a big hurdle, many people are stuck in this life, and now, it is not easy to jump up, but it is easy for Zhu Qizhen to brush it down with a word, this kind of gap really makes Yang Jun and Shi Biao's faces suddenly ugly, and they can't make a sound for a long time.
And that Yang Xin almost wanted to speak, but he couldn't hold back, but it was Jiang Fu, as the highest military governor of the border town of Xuanfu in the Ming Dynasty, who could only stand up and say: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that General Yang and General Shi are both handsome in the army, rare talents. Is this too much? I hope Your Majesty will check it. Thinking about it, the two generals also regretted it in their hearts, could they ask Ling Er and other generals to atone for their sins. ”
As soon as Jiang Fu said this, the generals of the Xuanfu behind him also stood up and persuaded him. Seeing this, Yang Jun and Shi Biao couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief and hurriedly bowed. "Your Majesty, the ministers have already been convicted of their crimes, and they dare not ask for mercy when they are guilty, and they only hope that Your Majesty will wait for the guilty to make meritorious contributions."
Zhu Qizhen stood with his hands in his hands, while the leather-gloved hand continued to play with the horsewhip behind him, his eyes stayed on the faces of the generals one by one, but he did not say a word about the pleas of these people.
And these pleading generals gradually realized that something was wrong, and they closed their mouths one after another, hanging their heads in anticipation of avoiding Zhu Qizhen's razor-sharp gaze.
And only Wang Jinchang, who is currently in charge of this barracks, and Yang Xin, who once took the initiative to ask the Emperor Taishang for the new military regulations, were silent and stood quietly aside. Yang Jun and Shi Biao, who were prostrate on the ground, felt this strange atmosphere, and couldn't help but quietly raise their eyes, seeing Zhu Qizhen's indifferent and expressionless face, they couldn't help but feel a sudden shock in their hearts.
Jiang Fu finally sensed that something was wrong, but he didn't know what to do, and he stood there awkwardly with the Xuanfu generals, unable to advance or retreat.
How could Zhu Qizhen not understand the thoughts of these generals who came forward to intercede? Speaking of which, there is not only the love of the robe, but also the intention of showing favor to the three Yang brothers or Shi Biao, and the other point is that no one wants to be punished so severely when they make such a mistake.
"You can have the righteousness of the robe, and I am very comforted to intercede for it...... Zhu Qizhen took a deep breath, making his heart seem calmer, but there are some words, I must let them know, and let them understand what a soldier of the Ming Dynasty is.
