What Xu He said, Tan Lun still had to digest, and when he left, he said to Tan Lun: "Mr. Zili, the world is so big that it is beyond my vision. Beyond the South Seas there is also the South Seas. ”

"Beyond the Northland, there's the Northland!"

"A lot of the anointed land is even occupied by a group of hairy and blood-drinking savages!"

"You should know that the Francois are small countries, but now they have seized many places south of Liangguang, Goa, India, and Manraga in the Maluku Islands!"

"Some of these are still the vassal states of our Great Wei!"

"These places are rich in spices, and rice can be harvested three times a year, but now they are occupied by red-haired barbarians......"

"And we, Da Wei, are still fighting for life and death for limited land."

"We people should really open our eyes and look at the world!"

……

Three days later.

The city of Beijing was shocked by three pieces of news.

The first is that the British Duke Lu Heng conferred the title of Metropolitan Governor, reopened the Governor's Office, and rectified the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.

The second is the 800-mile expeditious, and Wuchang, the capital of Huguang Province, fell.

A group of anti-thieves under the banner of [Daming], with the help of Neiying, opened the gate of Wuchang City, and the thief army rushed in.

The most jaw-dropping thing is that this gang of rebels has been rebelling for more than 10 days, wreaking havoc on the entire northern part of Huguang Province.

The two great cities of Xiangyang and Wuchang fell, but only 3,000 officers and soldiers went to the rescue.

The people of the capital were stunned when they heard the news.

What about the soldiers of our Great Wei Dynasty?

Where have all these soldiers and horses who show off their might on weekdays gone?

Why not save?

Why not save? Later, the people learned that Zuo Sizhong, the governor of the four provinces appointed by the imperial court, set off from Xi'an with Shaanxi soldiers at this time.

The third article is that after hearing about this, the six section officials invariably impeached the entire cabinet, especially Xu Song, the third assistant of the cabinet in charge of military affairs.

On the same day, Emperor Zheng issued an order that the officials should not wantonly attack the ministers.

There are many things that these officials are not clear, and it is inevitable that they will attack the cabinet and Xu Song.

However, two days later, the speech officials demanding that Xu Song step down from office spread from the Beijing speech officials to the two capitals and 13 provinces.

The impeachment recitals of local officials and local officials are pouring towards Beijing like snowflakes.

It stands to reason that with such a huge impeachment, Xu Song should have gone home a long time ago.

However, Emperor Zhizheng summoned him several times, and Xu Song did not want to return to his home to avoid the limelight in this eventful season.

The current Great Wei, the trouble is not just in Huguang.

Once he lets go, if the prisoners go to Beijing again, it will not be impeached, and there will definitely be people who will not be able to protect their heads.

Just behind these three explosive news, there is a trivial little thing that is quietly going on.

When the court concubine Ma Duwei and champion Xu He have a new title.

Just when a group of officials followed suit to impeach Xu Song, his nephew Xu He was appointed as the commander of the Jingwei Command Department.

The news did not attract the attention of officials in Beijing.

Because compared to this incident, the loss of the city and the impeachment of cabinet ministers are more eye-catching.

Another part of the reason is that the term Jingwei really doesn't arouse everyone's interest.

Why?

This starts with what Jingwei is.

Jingwei is divided into upper and southern guards.

The official ranks are all the same, and each has a palm print and a book.

Those who can mix in Jingwei are actually because of the people who are honored by Zuyin and Shilu.

There is no fixed number of people in Jingwei.

There are a total of twenty-six commanders of the Shangzhiwei pro-army, and the famous Jinyi Guard, Jin Wuwei, Yulin Wei, Tiger Benwei, and Bannerman Guard are among them, and twelve of them are known as the "Shang Twelve".

The Upper Twelve Guards were created by Taizu Zhang Shicheng, and they already existed when they were established in Nanjing.

Later, Yingzong moved the capital to Beijing, and set up ten guards such as Jinwu Zuowei, Yanshan Left and Right Guard, and Tongzhou Wei, known as "Shang Ten Guards".

When it came to Xuanzong, four guards such as Tengxiang and Wu Xiang were set up.

There were a total of twenty-six guards in these guards, who regularly took turns guarding the court, and were called pro-army on the outside.

By the way, these guards are not under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies.

There are still thirty-three in the Jingwei that are under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, such as the Dragon and Tiger Guard led by Xue Yongzhi, which is under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office of the Left Army.

When Emperor Zheng talked to Xu He before, the mentioned Long Xiangwei and Leopard Taowei were subordinate to the former military governor's mansion.

So looking at it this way, Xu He's appointment is not eye-catching.

One is that these Beijing guards are actually some shelf goods, except for the special mission of Jinyiwei, most of the other guards in Beijing are places where the sons and daughters of military generals and nobles are used to receive a national offering.

Secondly, Xu He is the experience of the former military governor's office, and everyone is no longer surprised that he is appointed to the military position, and they know that he is the commander of the Jingwei Guard, but they have no reaction at all.

Later, after hearing that he was in charge of Long Xiang and Bao Tao's two guards, he took it for granted.

They are all under the jurisdiction of the former military governor's office, presumably the emperor is what kind of moth he wants his son-in-law to train!

Jingwei ......

Training?

Don't be funny, isn't this whimsical or what?

It's okay to let these noble children eat, drink and have fun, and let them go out to exercise like Qiu Ba every day?

I'm afraid it won't take the lives of these people.

After hearing about this, the commanders of Long Xiang and Bao Tao Erwei were not nervous, but they were nervous.

That's because the board doesn't fall on someone else's head, so others don't get nervous.

But if Xu He really wants to go online with him, it will be fatal.

These twenty-six guards of the Jinyi Guard, because they want to stay in the palace, are quite reliable, at least they are all full.

But like Long Xiang and Bao Tao, the thirty-three guards, as long as they are staying in Beijing, they are not even full of people staying in Nanjing.

Why?

Because those in Nanjing, such as Longhuwei and Ying Tianwei, all have to bear the defense of Nanjing and the nearby Yangtze River waterway.

But what about these health centers in Beijing?

Except for a few years ago, when the thieves arrived under the city and went to stand on the city wall for more than ten days, the rest of the days were all over the world, and they didn't even have to.

However, what stunned the two commanders was that since Xu He was appointed as the commander of the Jingwei and was in charge of Long Xiang and Bao Tao, the emperor's son-in-law has not appeared in front of everyone until now.

went to the Jingwei Command Department to inquire, and it is said that Xu Juma also came to the Yamen.

When the two commanders heard this, they were immediately happy.

It seems that this colt is just a name, hey, it scared the old two to death.

It's been a waste of time to pull people around and pretend to be in vain these days.

Commander Long Xiangwei made Zhou Xiang and Commander Bao Taowei make Fang Sheng get together to study, and finally felt that Shangguan would not come, and they could not be ignorant as subordinates.

In the end, the two pooled together a thousand taels of silver and sent it to the princess's mansion.

When Xu He came back from the deliberations of Xu Song's mansion, he heard Zhang He talk about it.

He smiled and said, "Put it away first, count the days, it should be almost ......"
