Chapter 36: The moon is beautiful tonight
In the Hall of Eternal Life, Zhu Xiongying looked at Lan Yu, who turned and left, and easily issued an order to the military department and the governor's mansion of the five armies.
After Lao Zhu opened the country, he adopted Liu Bowen's suggestion, established the military defense law, established health centers throughout the country, and controlled the key points everywhere.
The capital set up the Metropolitan Governor's Office, which was changed to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies in the thirteenth year of Hongwu, which was the highest military organ and was in charge of the military registration of the National Health Institute.
Conquest, suppression, training, etc., were under the orders of the military department.
In the event of a war, the military department was ordered to transfer the army, appoint a leading officer, send a letter to Yin, and when the war ended, the leading officer handed over the seal to the court.
This is what was said before, the Governor's Office of the Five Armies has the right to command troops but not the right to transfer troops, and the military department has the right to transfer troops but not the right to command troops, and the two are not subordinate to each other.
If Lan Yu wants to control the Shaanxi Metropolitan Guard, he must have the seal of the Governor's Office and the Ministry of War of the Five Armies at the same time.
Because the Hongwu Dynasty was the first dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, the army establishment was relatively simple compared to later generations, and there were many of them.
The total number of troops in all parts of the country is more than 2 million.
Of course, only more than 300,000 of them are the Beijing camp and the pro-army, which can also be called the main force of the central government, which is the main army with the most well-equipped, the highest quality of soldiers, and the most powerful combat power in the entire dynasty.
The others are all local armies, and the local armies are divided into guard armies and border armies.
The border army refers to the nine-sided towns guarded by the nine great Saiwangs, and the direct target is the Northern Yuan.
These armies are also called the town defense army, which is perennial on the border, licking blood from the knife edge, rich in actual combat experience, and its combat power is not much better than that of the Beijing army.
Zhu Di in the original historical trajectory took the opportunity to take the town guard army of Changping Town to make a fortune, and then he fooled King Ning's military power into his hands, so that he had the capital to play with the imperial court.
The guards are the guards in various places, with more than 100,000 troops and as few as 350,000 troops, and the establishment of these armies is relatively chaotic, the number of soldiers is even more uneven, and the combat effectiveness is generally relatively low.
Although the army seems to be a lot, in fact, for the Ming Dynasty, the Beijing camp is the top priority, and if the Beijing camp army is lost, the power will be on the verge of extinction.
The reason is also very simple, the border army has to guard the border, once there is chaos in the interior, in order to prevent foreign enemies from taking the opportunity to invade, they will not dare to return to Beijing Qinwang, and if foreign enemies break through from other passes, it will be too late to return to the capital in a short time.
The guards are low-powered, and it takes a long time to get from all over the country.
For example, the Ming God of War used 500,000 Beijing camp army (in fact, more than 200,000), lost the first war with a bottom, if it were not for Yu Qian Niucha, with the combat power of the reserve army (reserve) and the urgently transferred reserve army to block the Wara army, support to the border army and the king of Qin rushed to Beijing, the Ming Dynasty may be in the hands of the god of war to play.
This time, Zhu Xiongying's army to Lan Yu was the army of the Shaanxi Dusi Guard, about 80,000 people, don't look at the number of people, in fact, the combat power is not strong.
"Your Highness, the secretary of the criminal department is outside asking to see you."
As soon as Lan Yu left, Eunuch Xiaobao quickly walked into the hall and said.
"Xuan."
What is the storm Zhao doing, Zhu Xiongying's door is clear.
At this time, Tyrant Zhao, who was walking towards the Hall of Eternal Life under the guidance of the palace people, had a mess in his mind, and he had not recovered from the Fengtian Hall yet.
As soon as he entered the office, he was assigned to the Dali Temple, and worked in the local area for a few years, and then moved to the left of the Imperial History of the Imperial Palace, and then the right servant of the Criminal Department, and the Shangshu of the Criminal Department.
He can be said to have traveled all over the three legal divisions of the imperial court, and his entire career is 'adjudicating cases'.
But like today's Fengtian Temple's trial methods, he really saw it for the first time in his life, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that there was a prisoner in the world who could prove himself to death.
Entered the Hall of Eternal Life.
When Tyrant Zhao saw Zhu Xiongying sitting on the high, he automatically ignored the unknown strange chair that His Royal Highness the eldest grandson was sitting on, and knelt down respectfully and saluted.
Zhu Xiongying looked at the old man below.
Old man Liu entered the Ministry of Officials, and the personnel adjustment of the imperial court will have great changes in all departments, but only this criminal department, Zhu Xiongying does not plan to move.
In the original historical trajectory, this violent old man swore not to surrender to Zhu Laosi, scolded the Yan thief for usurping and rebellion, and was finally gouged out by Zhu Di, cut off his hands and feet, and died until his neck was cut off.
It can be described as a loyal minister.
"What do you want?"
Although I know why I came, I still have to ask such a question in the process.
"The minister came here to ask His Highness to make a clear decree, how to deal with Zhu Shangbing, the son of the deposed King of Qin?"
Tyrant Zhao was also confused.
According to the law, Zhu Shangbing's criminal responsibility, Ling Chi's extermination of the Nine Clans is a routine operation.
But in the previous Fengtian Palace, His Royal Highness Taisun just used the word 'to be beheaded'.
As an official in the court, figuring out the meaning is the basic exercise.
This is a very interesting word.
For example, Huang Zicheng, the secretary of Dali Temple, has been in the prison for several days, and he has not really asked him to move his head.
"What do you think of it?"
Zhu Xiongying did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.
This rhetorical question directly embarrassed Storm Zhao, thinking that I want to know how to deal with it, and I need to go to Taisun Mansion on purpose...
"If you are convicted, you should be put to death."
"But considering the reputation of His Majesty and His Royal Highness, the minister thinks that it is enough to ask at the noon gate."
Storm Zhao just finished speaking.
"Is it good to rob a prison?"
Zhu Xiongying asked again.
These words shocked Tyranny, and he hurriedly patted his chest to reassure.
"Your Highness, rest assured, the prison is tightly guarded, and the ministers guarantee their lives, and there is no possibility of robbing the prison!"
Zhu Xiongying frowned slightly.
It's not good to rob prisons...
That's a bit of a hassle.
Zhu Xiongying's ultimate goal: to provoke the King of Qin to rebel.
He believed that as long as the news of Zhu Shangbing's detention and beheading reached Qindi, Zhu Fan would definitely be angry and wanted to rebel.
But if someone is persuaded by the side, or if he is angry, considering that Lao Zhu and Ah Biao still have half a breath, this Zhu Fan may retract.
At this time, someone needs to be on the side.
And the best candidate for this arch fire is Zhu Shangbing.
As long as Zhu Shangbing returns to Qin, or goes back as a fugitive from capital crimes, once the court orders the arrest, Zhu Shangbing will definitely do everything possible to pry his father and pull the banner.
The reason is simple, if you don't rebel, you have to die.
Of course, Zhu Shangbing didn't want to die, and King Qin would die to protect him.
"After all, Zhu Shangbing is Gu's cousin, and His Majesty has always been the most important clan bloodline, and it is obvious that it will damage the royal face in the world, so he will be escorted to the filial piety tomb outside the city, and give him a glass of wine on behalf of Gu."
Storm Zhao thought about it and thought it was a good idea.
"Minister, obey the order."
"I wonder when Your Highness thinks it is better to be executed?"
If it is an ordinary case, Tyrant Zhao will decide it himself, but after all, this is the emperor's clan.
"It's nice to look at the moonlight tonight."
Zhu Xiongying smiled faintly.
Violent Zhao muttered in his heart, where did the moonlight come from in this broad daylight, but he was very surprised that His Royal Highness Taisun was in such a hurry to give Zhu Shangbing to death, which was completely different from the attitude of Fengtian Hall to be beheaded.
"Tyrant Qing is hard, the criminal department is heavy, and in the future, Lone will have to rely on Yu Qing, seeing that Qing's face is pale, it should be a loss of kidney yang, Lone has a few Shenglong Pills, which can strengthen the essence and replenish the qi."
"Someone, Shidan."
After a cup of tea, the violent Zhao who came out of the Fengtian Temple was stunned in place.
Looking down at the bottle of Shenglong Pill in his hand, he always felt that something was wrong.
Obviously chatting about business, how can we discuss kidney loss...
