The Beijing camp of the Ming Dynasty was originally in Nanjing, which is the most powerful and core armed force of the country, and was divided into two parts: the Beijing camp and the Nanjing camp after Zhu Di's Jingjing change to ascend the throne and move the capital, and the Beijing camp is also called the three major battalions, including the five military battalions, the three thousand battalions and the Shenji battalion; Each of the three battalions is led by a commander, a minister, a military minister, and a commander in charge; In peacetime, the five military battalions practiced the battalion formation, the 3,000 battalions practiced patrolling, 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 battalions were first established, they were quite combative, with Zhu Di, the immediate emperor, under the command of the emperor, and many of the battlefield generals who participated in the Jingjing Revolution served as generals, and the soldiers were also selected as one out of a hundred; It's a pity that these troops were all buried in the hands of Wang Zhen in the civil engineering change, not only the elite soldiers accumulated over the years were destroyed, but even the Ming lords who were in charge of the Beijing camp were almost all buried.

In addition, it is a coincidence that the civil engineering change occurred 180 years ago in the year of Jisi, according to the usual chronology of the sexagenary branch in the Central Plains, 60 years of reincarnation, and this year is also the year of Jisi.

During the Jingtai period, Yu Qian reorganized and trained the Beijing battalion, selected 100,000 elites in the three major battalions, and divided them into ten battalions for regimental training, in case of emergency call, called the ten regiment battalions. The ten regiments and battalions are led by a general officer, and the superintendent is the chief minister, the secretary of the military department or the imperial history of the capital as the commander, and each battalion is divided into the governor, the trumpet officer, the commander, the commander, the leader, the battalion and other officers; Later, in the Jiajing period, the establishment of the three major battalions was restored, but the three thousand battalions were changed to the Shenshu battalion.

Because he has been in the center for a long time, he has few opportunities to participate in the war, and he is close to the prosperous place of the capital, so the degeneration of the capital camp has become an inevitable thing, and the nobles, civil servants and even lieutenants of the imperial court have used the soldiers and servants of the Beijing camp to do some private things such as building mansions; Because the capital is the center of the imperial court, everyone may have to act with a little face, and the situation can be better, but the Nanjing Jingying is even more unbearable.

Later, in the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Zhu Guobi, the prominent hero of Baoguo, in order to show his majesty and grandeur when marrying Kou Baimen, one of the eight Yans of Qinhuai, specially sent 5,000 Nanjing Jingying soldiers to hold red lights from Wuding Bridge, and stood solemnly along the way to Zhufu in the inner bridge, which was unprecedented, and became the largest wedding scene in Nanjing in the Ming Dynasty.

Think about it, mobilizing the garrison of the capital to marry a prostitute to play prestige, such a thing can be done, is there still a reason for the Ming Dynasty to not die? What's even more ridiculous is that this matter has become a rare and elegant thing among those Jiangnan scholars, and it has been widely praised, and there is a lot of envy between the words.

The disadvantages in the Beijing camp are complicated and widely implicated, and the military generals, noble relatives, and eunuchs of the middle officials have all shared a lot of benefits in it, so Wang Qia, the secretary of the military department, is at a loss for this, and when he heard the news that the emperor was going to inspect the Beijing camp, he immediately sweated like rain, and he was afraid of losing his life.

He had to write a letter to delay Li You's inspection of the Beijing camp, and at the same time hurriedly contacted the personnel of all parties, doing everything possible to fool this errand over, and these guys may have nothing to do to do some practical things, and they are good at fooling up the inspection, they are capturing the beggar Qingpi in the capital to come as a soldier, and at the same time giving money to recruit good people to make up the number, and the two-pronged approach is to let them make up a lot of people, so they dare to respond to the emperor's request.

"Lord Shangshu, rest assured, Your Majesty has been in the military before, and he will definitely not see the clues." With such audacity in their words, these people are really unscrupulous.

Wang Qia nodded silently, in fact, his thoughts are also average, in his opinion, Emperor Chongzhen has been in the palace since he was a child, and he has only been on the throne for two years, although he has shown some small means in the process of destroying Wei Zhongxian's party, but it is not necessarily how good it is, so it may not be difficult to deal with this errand.

Three days later, Li You came to the school field in Beijing as scheduled, but when he saw thousands of soldiers standing in the field, banners waving and golden drums sounding, at first glance there was a bit of a scene.

If it was Zhu Youzhen who came, he couldn't really be fooled by Wang Qia, but who is Li You? To put it mildly, he may have killed more enemies than Wang Qia had ever seen on paper, so how could he hide his eagle eye from a small means?

These soldiers are scrawny, standing crookedly, without any spirit at all, there are half a point of soldiers, the queue is even more unsightly, standing dry and uneven, not to mention on the march, it is simply wishful thinking to expect such an army to fight.

However, Li You didn't have any hope for them, so he pretended not to notice the mystery, but praised it, "Wang Shangshu is indeed a talented person in the country, and this Beijing camp looks really mighty." ”

"Your Majesty has an overreputation, this is the result of the concerted efforts of the whole camp, and Weichen does not dare to take credit." Hearing this, Wang Qia put his mind at ease for the time being, no matter what happens in the future, at least the current hurdle has passed.

"Well, let's take a look." Li You despised Wang Qia countless times in his heart, but his face was still calm.

To be able to make these people who came to make up the numbers stand like this in a short period of time, Wang Qia and those generals in the Beijing camp have already used all their skills, how easy is it to let them practice? But the emperor's will, how can they refuse? So Wang Qia had no choice but to take out some of the simplest exercises and practice them.

This is all a god's thing! Seeing the clumsy performance of those soldiers, Li You scolded Wang Qia and the ancestors of these Beijing camp generals for eighteen generations, if the army of the Ming Dynasty was like this, it was really unreasonable not to die, in just one month, he poured out such thoughts countless times.

"Okay, the soldiers are tired, let's stop here today." After watching a few projects, Li You really couldn't bear it anymore, and hurriedly stopped the exercise, "Wang Shangshu and you have worked hard, and we need to continue to persist in the future and restore the old majesty of the three battalions as soon as possible." ”

"The ministers obey." It seems that this level is over, Wang Qia and these generals of the Beijing camp thought at the same time.

It's a pity that before they could be happy, Li You poured a basin of cold water down, "According to the report of Jinyiwei, Jiannu has already reorganized the soldiers and horses and is ready to enter the customs, and when the time comes, the matter of facing Jiannu will be entrusted to Wang Shangshu and you." ”

Jiannu? Wang Qia was directly stunned by this hammer, since Salhu, the Ming court can be said to be talking about building slaves and changing color, and then look at these wastes behind him, wouldn't it be dead to expect them to block Jiannu?
