The reason why Emperor Chongzhen was frightened was because Changping was the location of the imperial mausoleum, and since Chengzu below, the twelve emperors of the Ming Dynasty were all buried at the southern foot of Tianshou Mountain in Changping. To a certain extent, the imperial mausoleum of the Feng Shui treasure is related to the national fortune of the Ming Dynasty, and its importance is far greater than that of the Forbidden City.

In the 29th year of Jiajing, Changping Prefecture was separated from the Shuntian Governor, the main purpose was to resist the Mongol invasion, and the post of Governor was removed from Jiajing in the 32nd year, and Changping Prefecture was under the jurisdiction of the Shuntian Governor, and Chongzhen was restored in five years. What worries Emperor Chongzhen is that Changping is occupied by rebels, and the Jingshi is threatened at all times, which is simply burying a barrel of fierce fire oil around him, once it burns, it is likely to be a repeat of the Dengzhou rebellion!

Dengzhou Kong Youde rebelled with a mere 2,000 soldiers and horses, burned and looted all the way, and finally gathered nearly 100,000 people, making Denglai and the two states a mess, and they could not recover for several years, although the Dongjiang soldiers were still restrained by the Ning Iron Cavalry, but now the Changping rebels are known as the Lushun regimental training camp of the first strong army of the Ming Dynasty, even against Houjin, it is a continuous battle, if it were not for this, Emperor Chongzhen would not have moved to take care of the incorporation, but what made Emperor Chongzhen angry was that Cao Huachun would recommend such a fool to take over the regimental training camp? Not only did the regimental training battalion not take over successfully, the Shenshu battalion was wiped out, the Shenji battalion was still struggling to support, the deputy general of the Beijing battalion, Ni Chong, and dozens of generals were all killed by the chaos, and the face of the imperial court was lost.

Emperor Chongzhen resisted the urge to punish Ni and pet the nine clans, and said as calmly as possible: "All of you Aiqing have heard Zeng Pu's urgency. Let's talk about it, how to deal with it? ”

Zhang Fengyi cried with a sad face, and he found that the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were all looking at him. Others can not open their mouths about this matter, and it will be useless for him to hang his head, so he had to cough dryly at the moment, and said: "Your Majesty, the rebellion of the regimental training camp is raging in Changping Prefecture, and the ministers are not properly handled by the military department, so I beg Your Majesty to return the bones to the ......."

Disheveled!

Emperor Chongzhen was so angry that his face was flushed. He angrily slapped the imperial case and scolded: "Changping is in danger, what I want is a strategy to calm the chaos, if everyone is in trouble, they will shrink their heads and resign." What is the state raising you for? ”

Zhang Fengyi lowered his head and said nothing, Chongzhen found that he had swept many ministers into it, so he stopped in time. Zhang Fengyi is mediocre. But with Wen Tiren, Yan Kunzhi and others, this time after Jin Nan swept the arrangement in a good way, which made Emperor Chongzhen's impression of him very different, Emperor Chongzhen's tone softened slightly: "Don't mention the words of begging to return to the bones, now Changping is occupied by rebels, the ancestors are uneasy, and I am anxious." The tone was stern, and there was no need for this soldier and everyone Aiqing to be frightened. Zhang Aiqing, let's first talk about the situation of the battalions near Changping Prefecture. ”

Zhang Fengyi's heart was a little calmer, and he bowed his head and said: "Back to Your Majesty, if it is the main suppression, the soldiers and horses of the standard camp in Miyun, Tongzhou, or Tianjin can be adjusted near Changping, but the old minister thinks that the Lushun regiment has outstanding combat strength, and these soldiers and horses are probably not opponents, unless they are transferred to Yongguan or Datong ......."

Zhang Fengyi knew in his heart that in order to rescue the Daling River, Changping, Miyun, Tianjin, Tongzhou, Baoding and other elites near Beizhili went out of the customs one after another, and the whole army was wiped out in the first battle of Changshan, and he had no soldiers in his hands, especially to deal with the elite soldiers of Lushun, there were three battalions of soldiers and horses guarding the tomb near Changping, about 15,000, but they were empty, and most of the battalions were old, weak, sick and disabled, and there were only hundreds of people who could fight.

Seeing that Emperor Chongzhen was indecisive, the official Shangshu Xie rose out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the rebellion in Changping was mishandled by Ni Pet, and the regimental training camp is thousands of miles Qinwang, if it were not for Ni Pet's arrogance and arrogance, and he killed the generals who were loved by the soldiers, which forced the regimental training camp, and now the imperial court must not make a mistake again and again, when the army should be sent to appease it, blindly send troops to encircle and suppress, one is the combat strength of the regimental training battalion, three thousand elites are trapped in Yong'an, and the court counterinsurgency army is urgent and difficult. There are a lot of losses in the army and horses, such as Datong, Baoan, Shanhaiguan and other places, if the encirclement and suppression time is too long, the whole place in Gyeonggi is turbulent, third, it is really difficult to convince the public only to listen to Ni Pet's words, at present, Lushun Yang Bo is confronting the elite of the Eight Banners in Yangguanbao, if you learn about the Changping mutiny, in case there are family members of the regimental training camp and other angry people to make unexpected moves, the consequences are really unimaginable......

Emperor Chongzhen was silent, Xie Sheng's words were not alarmist, originally he just asked Cao Huachun to install his cronies to take over the regimental training camp, Ni Chong acted recklessly, but the regimental training camp did not respect the laws of the imperial court, and he dared to rebel under the threat of two battalions of soldiers and horses, which he never expected. Now that the matter is getting bigger, I can't cover it if I want to, not to mention that the battle of Yangguan Fort is in full swing, how should the imperial court appease Yang Bo's department?

Just when Emperor Chongzhen hesitated, the emergency report of Chao Pichang, the general soldier of Changping, arrived again, Chao Pichang said in the urgent report, he was stationed in the Yong'an camp in Huacheng when the incident occurred, and after learning that Changping was in turmoil, he rushed to Yong'an with his troops, but the city gate was closed, the city head was on fire, and the shouts of killing were endless, the Ming Dynasty built Yong'an City in the east of Changping County in the first year of Jingtai, and soon built a new city in the south of Yong'an City, the two cities were connected together, the circumference was more than ten miles, the city was three feet high, and Chao Pichang took three thousand old and weak sick and disabled people to jump outside the city, but there was no way, Governor Zhao Yue, Changping Soldier Zhang Zhaokun, Household Commander Wang Gui, Judge Wang Yuzuo, Hu Weihong, Mausoleum Keeper Eunuch Wang Xizhong and others were trapped in the city and did not know whether life and death.

After listening to the emergency report, although Emperor Chongzhen scolded Chao Pichang for being mediocre and incompetent, Chao Pichang led the Yongan battalion to garrison Huacheng eight miles away from Changping, but he still didn't know what was going on, there were no useful words in this emergency report, and boasting about himself occupied most of the space, but Emperor Chongzhen was not easy to find fault with him, so he nodded and said: "Chao Pichang is loyal and brave, but he can be ordered to camp nearby, while sending people into the city to inquire about the news, and if there is any abnormal movement, he will fly to report to the Beijing Division"

After the messenger left, He Wuyu came out and said: "Changping is only half a day away from Beijing, just in case." His Majesty can order the Jingshi to be under martial law, transfer the three battalions to strictly prevent it, and the rebellion in Changping should be quickly stopped. and do not allow the war to spread. ”

Emperor Chongzhen walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, and said in a deep voice: "Spread the decree!" Wang Pu, deputy commander of the Beijing battalion, was ordered to lead the five armies, Shenshu, the rest of the Shenji martial law Beijing Division, the eunuch Ma Yuncheng to guard, the eunuch Lu Zhi to supervise the Yongwei battalion, and the eunuch Sun Weiwu to guard. The eunuch Wei led the four guards to guard Tianshou Mountain, and the imperial horse eunuch Deng Liangfu was the sub-guard, and Cao Huachun was the commander. Patrolling the city and parading the army, with Wang Zhaokun, the right attendant of the military department, as the deputy commander, the soldiers and horses from Miyun, Shunyi, Huairou, Liangxiang and other places gathered in Changping ......"

Emperor Chongzhen thought for a while, and then said, "...... Ordered the Chinese army Li Guofu to guard the Bauhinia Pass. Xu Jin loyally guarded the fallen horse pass. Eunuch Du Xun monitored Juyong Pass, Gao Qiqian and supervised the two towns and the governor of the minister, the forward chief soldier Zu Dashou was the commander, and the general soldier of Tongshan Customs You Shiwei belonged to the submersible, and the general soldier of Datong Cao Wen was punished, and the governor of Xuanda, Lu Xiangsheng, was dispatched in moderation, and the rest of the security guards, Ji Liao. All roads in Tianjin were strictly guarded and resolutely defended, and the regimental training camp was never allowed to flee. ”

Dispatch completed. Seeing the eunuch leaving the palace by order, Emperor Chongzhen's heart was a little relieved, and he looked at the silent Manchu Dynasty Wenwu and said: "There are heavy troops gathered in the Gyeonggi area, and I am not afraid that the regimental training camp will fly to the sky. Zhong Aiqing still negotiated a charter, right? ”

Zhang Fengyi hung his head and didn't dare to make a sound, unlike the self-confident Emperor Chongzhen, he knew in his heart what the situation of these so-called heavy soldiers was, for example, take the Beijing camp as an example, on paper, the three major battalions had more than 100,000 people, in fact, the Beijing camp had already become the forbidden body of the Beijing division magnates, and the number of soldiers was divided up, in addition to the Yongwei battalion and the four guard battalions still had some combat effectiveness, 60,000 capable fighters were only more than 1,000 people, although he was the main force but did not dare to come forward, Dengzhou was deposed after the rebellion, exiled a large number of lords and personnel, and even the governor Sun Yuanhua was killed, With this experience, although dare to speak easily?

Seeing that everyone was silent, Tang Shiji, the imperial history of the left capital, came out and said: "Your Majesty, if you can appease the regimental training camp, the court will be very lucky, and the world will be very lucky, but the minister wants to ask, Changping mutiny, the regimental training camp rioted, and dozens of people below the deputy general of the Beijing camp were killed. Where is the law of the imperial court? ”

Tang Shiji bowed down and said: "As soon as this proposal comes out, it will inevitably boil in the government and the opposition, and the whole country will be in an uproar, and I hope Your Majesty will think twice." ”

At that moment, the head of the household department also echoed and said: "Your Majesty think twice, you must not repeat the mistakes of Dengzhou, the regimental training camp is only more than 3,000, and the army is exhausted!" If Your Majesty has mercy, you can pass on the decree to know the rebels of Changping, only kill the first evil, and the rest of the blinded soldiers will not be investigated, if there are soldiers who kill the first evildoer, the court will have another reward, so that the internal and external attack, Changping refers to Keping, after recovering Changping, you can issue an order to investigate Lushun Yang Bo's failure to lead the army, and order him to make meritorious service for his crimes, and the court must carry out a thunderous blow in order to deter the ill-intentioned people......"

Everyone understands who the ill-intentioned people Hou Yi said, Lu Shun has shared a lot of profits from Liao's salary, because the original household department Shangshu fell too quickly, Hou Yi just came to power, and Yang Bo didn't have time to make a point, and Hou Bi's words were also made with hatred.

Li Kangxian, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, interrupted Hou Xian's chatter with a sneer, and said: "Your Majesty, Hou Yi is bullying the monarch, don't the princes in the court remember the changes in Datong?" ”

Emperor Chongzhen's face changed, Jiajing three years and twelve years, Datong experienced two mutinies, Jiajing three years, Datong governor Zhang Wenjin to strengthen war preparedness, ordered the town to guard the five forts in the north of the city, the general Zijian urged the governor very urgently, aroused the anger of the public. The townsmen Guo Jian, Liu Zhong and others rebelled, killed Zhang Wenjin and Jia Jian, Jiajing 12 years and Datong mutiny, killed two Datong governors in a row, a general soldier and a general, Datong is one of the nine sides of the Ming Dynasty, has always been regarded as the "shoulder of the place" of the Beijing Division, and occupies an extremely important strategic position in the northern border defense system of the Ming Dynasty. Especially since the "Civil Engineering Change", the ruling group of the Ming Dynasty regarded Datong as the "key to the north gate" related to the safety of the Beijing Division. However, it was this important military town with an important strategic position that there were two mutinies in a row, and the scale, duration and far-reaching impact of these two mutinies were rare in the history of the Ming Dynasty.

Li Kangxian said loudly: "Jiajing three years of the Wubao mutiny, the imperial court sent troops to suppress, and provoked a riot, and then killed the newly appointed governor and the chief soldier of the imperial court, the war lasted for several years before it was quelled, the cause of the mutiny was the Datong governor Zhang Wenjin was mean and brutal, and the general urged the governor to arouse public anger, which caused a huge disaster, and now the deputy general of the Beijing camp, Ni Chong, is arrogant, and kills the regimental training generals, and the soldiers mutiny are all caused by this incident, Your Majesty also asks for forgiveness for the minister's false words, if the imperial court blindly encircles and suppresses, the disaster of Datong is in front of you!" ”

Hou was furious and said, "Extremely pedantic! If the riots and rebellions are not suppressed, where is the dignity of the court? As soon as this column is opened, the world will be in chaos, besides, there are only more than 3,000 regimental training camps, could it be that all of them are immortal with copper shoulders and iron arms? ”

Li Kangxian retorted: "The Datong soldiers became the first to be only a few dozen people, the imperial court was heavily armed, and the encirclement and suppression took several years to subside, and now the regimental training camp has 3,000 men and horses, and the fight against Jiannu is not at all at a disadvantage, how many years does Lord Hou think it should take to calm down this matter?" ”

Li Kangxian's words choked Hou Xian, and he turned to Chongzhen and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that he should send a capable messenger to find out the mutiny clearly, and it is the best policy to appease the regiment and train the camp on the one hand. ”

Emperor Chongzhen's face was expressionless, and everyone didn't know what he was thinking, so they all quieted down for a while. (To be continued......)
