Chapter 45: Those who drink the wind outside the city also go first
The cabinet's attitude towards Wang Zhi was very surprised.
But after all, he is a scholar of Wenhua Palace, and the current cabinet deputy assistant, in the case that the first assistant has not yet been selected, he is the first assistant, and he does have the right to make a final decision.
Wang Zhi has already spoken, after all, he is the leader of the literary world and the head of Shilin, he still has the right to speak, and he still has to give face.
What's more, this matter does not involve the interests of the rest of the ministers, and a few people were shocked, and it was over to give a vote.
The next day, Kitajin Fuji.
Jinyiwei was established by Zhu Yuanzhang, and the power was strengthened in Zhu Di's hands, and the initial consideration was to strengthen the imperial power, which was vertically managed by the emperor, and the status was the same as that of the six departments.
Zhu Di didn't expect that even Jinyiwei was no longer under the control of the emperor.
The 12 guards of the pro-army, the Jinyi Guard, were originally conceived to be under the direct jurisdiction of the emperor, which could greatly strengthen the imperial power, but now it seems that this idea is still naïve.
They are not just a group of small spies.
Jinyiwei has a full seventeen offices under its jurisdiction, each of which has ten divisions, in addition to the north and south town Fu Divisions, the east and west divisions, which is a very large organization.
The division of functions of each institute is also different, some are responsible for leading the Jinyi captain and managing the dependence, while others are responsible for the management of wrestlers, military households, and artisan households.
The most powerful ones belong to the two pacification divisions in the north and south.
During the Yongle period, Zhu Di set up a special edict for Jinyiwei, as long as he got the emperor's driving sticker, he could bypass the three law divisions and directly arrest the edict to interrogate the prisoners.
The person who manages the edict prison is the Beizhen Fusi, who also has the power to arrest and arrest.
Compared with the Beizhen Fusi, the Nanzhen Fusi is not a dry meal, the Beizhen Fusi is responsible for supervising hundreds of officials for the emperor, and Zhu Di naturally has to leave a back hand at that time to let people supervise Jinyiwei.
As a result, Nanzhen Fusi came into being.
At that time, when Zhu Di set up the Nanzhen Fusi, the holy decree wrote such a paragraph: "Zengnan Zhenfusi, specializing in health affairs, military discipline and punishment, household registration files, etc., are all owned by the Nanzhen Fusi." ”
As soon as I heard that the Wang family had been sealed, especially a person named Wang Ying who became the governor of Jinyi Wei and was in charge of the affairs of the Fusi of the South Town, the people of the Fusi of the North Town panicked.
Although the Beizhen Fusi has great power externally, not only ruling the edict prison, but also guarding the palace, but there is no way to do it internally.
Although Nanzhen Fusi did not have the right to arrest people, he was in charge of them.
The current commander of the Jinyi Guard, Sun Shaozong, has the title of the Governor of the Chinese Army, and his status belongs to the commander of the Jinyi Guard's palm print, which is more powerful than the general Jinyi Guard's commander.
Therefore, in addition to being in charge of the Beizhen Fusi, he also holds the edict.
"Commander, this Wang Ying is what His Majesty has placed in our Jinyi Guard, and he wants to restrain you!" A brocade-clothed guard Qianhu said indignantly:
"Does the Queen Mother care about this?"
Sun Shaozong sneered: "Your Majesty's idea is good, but it is too naïve, the current Queen Mother is my own sister, and it is my own brother who is in charge of the military affairs of the Twelve Guards." ”
"Your Majesty wants Wang Quan to restrain my brother and let this Wang Ying come to me for trouble, how can it be!"
Another Jinyi Wei Qianhu also said: "The little one who is in charge of the edict in the east of the city, do you want to send some people over to find out the trouble of the Nanzhen Fusi in the east of the city?" ”
"It's okay, give this one named Wang Ying a dismount, so that he knows who is the top of Jinyiwei's sky!" Sun Shaozong nodded and said:
"You just said that there were military households who escaped and went to Nanzhen Fusi to arrest people in the yamen in the east of the city, and if they couldn't catch people, they would have to make trouble for a few days."
The thousand households smiled and said: "Just look at the command of you, the lowly guarantee will stir up the Nansi restlessness, this Wang Ying will definitely be scared to pee his pants and dare not interfere in the affairs of our Beisi." ”
Sun Shaozong sneered: "This is the best, if this person named Wang Ying dares to come nonsense, take chicken feathers as an arrow, and find trouble with Lao Tzu, let him disappear directly!" ”
Hearing this, several Jinyi Wei Qianhu all shuddered.
......
Meanwhile.
Sixty kilometers south of Beijing, Juyongguan.
The Ming civil and military forces in the city were deceitful at the same time, but they also squatted in the military camp to drink the wind.
After the defeat last time, he also chose to withdraw from the siege and run away, and at the suggestion of the little traitor Xining, he chose the second set of plans provided by him to capture Juyong Pass.
In retrospect, I was indeed carried away by the victory.
After the Tumubao battle was drawn, the real correct strategy should be to fight Juyong Pass, to the south can threaten the Central Plains, and to the north can enter Beijing.
It's really not good, you can run to Shanxi at any time to grab a wave and then run away.
Alas!
Still young!
However, it's still too late to go back and fight Juyongguan!
Although the first Warat army suffered heavy damage at the foot of Beijing, he drank the northwest wind here for a few days, and also integrated about 50,000 elite cavalry, which is not counting more than 100,000 non-combatants.
Although the morale of the Warat cavalry is not as good as before, its combat effectiveness is still there.
Go to fight a weakly defended Juyong Pass, no accident, there is no accident.
The main general of the Ming army guarding Juyong Pass is called Luo Tong, who was also unknown before, and the Ming army in Juyong Pass is less than 20,000, and the city defense is a younger brother compared to Beijing.
As long as the Juyong Pass is defeated tomorrow, the days of the Warat army will be much better.
But it seems that a civil fort used up all the luck of the rest of the second half of his life, and the most unexpected accident happened in Juyong Pass.
And coincidentally, on this night.
He was also deploying combat preparations first, but he found that the temperature had dropped so much that after a while, he could even see the white haze blowing out of his breath.
At this time, the sentry came to report that the Ming army in Juyong Pass was pouring water frantically into the city.
I don't really understand first, what is the Ming army going to do?
He felt that the second monk was confused, but he didn't care about this detail, and turned his head and continued to emphasize to the leaders that the Ming army was vulnerable, and it must be broken in a battle tomorrow.
Then you can go into the city, burn, kill and loot, wouldn't it be happy?
The Warat army is making simple preparations before the siege, and it seems that it is only necessary to wait for the sun to rise tomorrow, and then lead the army to take Juyong Pass.
The next morning, looking at the white sky outside the tent, all the Warats were stupid.
It's snowing?!
The first snow of the fourteenth year of Orthodoxy came a little earlier than usual.
Looking at the unhurried smiling face of Luo Tong, the commander of the Ming army at the head of the city, he suddenly realized at this moment that he finally understood why those Ming troops were sprinkling water like crazy last night.
Overnight, Juyongguan, which was a brick and earth structure yesterday, has become a huge ice city.
Now don't talk about attacking the city, there is not even a place to help, no matter how brave and invincible the Wara cavalry is, you can't fly up to the city out of thin air to slash and kill the Ming army, right?
The battle has reached this point, and the last trace of luck has been shattered.
After the first battle of Tumubao, another victory was already a luxury for him.
Now Yexian no longer dares to hope for anything to capture Beijing and restore the Great Yuan, because the reality has already told him that this is just a pipe dream.
Now, all he needs is a decent chance to step down.
However, this heavy snowfall overnight did not even leave the last fig leaf for the male lord of the grassland, so he was firmly blocked from the door.
I also regret it first, as long as it is a day in the morning, it is myself who drinks hot porridge in the city.
But after all, he could not be a prophet, and he did not have a weather observatory with him.
Who would have thought that it would snow heavily this night?
