Wanli 1592

Chapter 736 Zhu Yijun is not a fuel-efficient lamp after all
It is definitely a great thing for Zhu Yijun to make Xiao Ruxun the governor of the Jingying Rongzheng.

Firstly, Xiao Ruxun is Zhu Yijun's absolute confidant and can be trusted absolutely. If he masters the military power of the capital, which is absolutely important to the Ming Dynasty, it will be enough to exert the power to influence the court situation, and then become the source of his own power to speak in the court.

Zhang Weixian and Xu Wenbi, the honorable descendants who have been raised as pigs for a long time, are not enough to seek great things. Zhu Yijun treats them Yourong, of course he wants to use their strength to maintain his own power, but soon Zhu Yijun sadly finds out that the whole The nobles in Beijing City were all raised into qualified pigs in captivity, which really didn't help at all.

The few who can stand up and speak out are all vassals of civil servants. All they think about is earning money and spending money.

Only then did Zhu Yijun understand what kind of environment Emperor Zhengde and his grandfather Jiajing were struggling to maintain power, and realized the importance of military power to an emperor in a centralized country, but no matter how hard he struggled, he could not pass the military department To directly control a team, even the palace guards cannot directly control it.

Jinyiwei and Dongchang, which used to be able to intimidate civil officials, have entered a low period in the Jiajing era. During the Chenghua period and the Zhengde period, Dongchang and Xichang were once able to compete with civil officials. Only the Dongchang can still exist. As the last emperor psychological safety barrier.

But up to now, both Jinyiwei and Dongchang have colluded with civil officials to varying degrees, and the last security barrier in Zhu Yijun's heart has also collapsed. A strong sense of crisis prompted him to seek help outside. At this moment, a person who dared to take risks The general who confides the truth to him appears.

The emergence of this life-saving straw gave Zhu Yijun a ray of hope. After careful thinking and deployment, Zhu Yijun decided to slowly start his plan to seize power, but the most important thing to realize this plan is the army. Only the army can support his own. ambition.

Zhu Yijun deeply understands the importance of the army, but in this period when only eunuchs can barely trust him, he has no military force that he can directly mobilize.

Xiao Ruxun brought back no more than [-] people who could participate in the prisoner offering ceremony in an upright manner, and the number of dead soldiers he asked Zhang Cheng to train in various ways was only [-], and the training time was not enough, so it could not be regarded as a strong combat force at all. However, it is Xiao Ruxun's army that can really be relied on.

Compared with the hundreds of thousands of troops around the capital, this is really too little. If he cannot be killed in one blow, his status will be lost. Zhu Yijun has not yet had the courage to take the throne to make a big gamble.

But at this time, Shen's consistent "reciprocation" made him see another possibility.

The capital of a centralized country is the absolute heart of the country. Whoever controls the heart of the country can control the power of a centralized country.

Especially in this era of extremely slow dissemination of information and lack of means, by the time the foreign troops learned of the news of the coup in the capital, the coup had already ended and the overall situation was settled, and they were helpless.

Therefore, the decisive role in the coup is the nearby army, the Beijing camp, which has the right to guard the capital, and the royal guards in the palace. In a sense, the role of the royal guards is even greater than that of the Beijing camp. Just a few thousand people are enough to determine the ownership of the country's highest power.

The current Beijing camp is undoubtedly in the hands of the civil official group and their vassal nobles, that is, Zhang Weixian. Zhang Weixian and other top dignitaries of the Ming Dynasty have been operating in the Beijing camp for more than a hundred years. For my own back garden.

Since the Tumu Fortress, the Jingying only cheered up for a while during the Zhengde Jiajing and Wanli early days, and then became like the Imperial Army of the Northern Song Dynasty, becoming a veteran soldier with no combat effectiveness.

It is no exaggeration to say that the current Beijing camp has elites, but they all belong to the private armed groups of Zhang Weixian, Xu Wenbi and other top dignitaries to protect their own safety. There are not many people, well-equipped, and good treatment.

And the other Beijing soldiers who are the main force are no different from handymen. They just guard the city gate and pretend to bully the passing merchants and ordinary people. If they really want to be pulled out to fight, just like Li Chengliang before. Once, now I don't even live in the capital, and I go back to Liaodong to retire.

The soldiers of the Beijing camp are not only seriously insufficient in number, but also have a variety of strange equipment. Their ability to use farm tools is far superior to that of weapons. It's a wonder of the world.

Zhu Yijun is not very clear about all this. He vaguely knows something, but what he knows is incomplete. There is no specific data to get it, and he doesn't dare to believe it, especially after Luo Sigong is no longer trusted by him. Trust the information you get.

Now, his understanding of Jingying can be described as blind.

And if Xiao Ruxun can be allowed to replace Zhang Weixian in charge of the Beijing Camp, then everything will be a matter of course, and he will soon know what the Beijing Camp has become like after being tossed by these bastards, and what the three powerful Beijing Camps have become now Strange objects.

What's more important is to directly control the military power of the capital, and have the confidence to speak from now on.

Shen always said very well.

It seems that he is thinking about the emperor and needs to cooperate with the emperor.

But Zhu Yijun is not a fuel-efficient lamp after all, he will not be unclear about how difficult it is to spit out after eating.

Therefore, after reading Shen Yitong's playlist, Zhu Yijun no longer had the initial excitement.

"Mr. Shen Ge, what you said is indeed very good. However, it is normal and a rule for the Beijing camp to be handed over to the honorable commander. Zhang Weixian has never committed any crimes. It's also a rule, if you haven't made a mistake, what reason should you use to take him down?"

Shen has always thought of this.

"Returning to Your Majesty, it is not the most important thing whether the British Duke made any mistakes. Just transfer him a more prestigious position and let him be promoted. It is enough to leave this position to Qin Guogong. In the opinion of the veteran, Qin Guogong is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

In the previous battle at Bauhinia Pass, the performance of the Beijing camp was not good. It was time to rectify it. Qin Guogong was famous in the Ming Dynasty for his ability to command and train troops. "

Zhu Yijun put the watch on his desk, walked back to his throne and sat down.

"Of course I know that Xiao Qing is the best candidate, but it has been a tradition for more than a hundred years for the nobles of the capital to control the capital. Will the benefits obtained be honestly handed over to Xiao Qing, who was born in the Northwest?

Xiao Qing is not one of them, he is not trusted, and Zhang Weixian did not make any mistakes, what reason should I use to transfer his position openly?If there is no reason, will Xungui be dissatisfied with me and embarrass Xiao Qing? "

Zhu Yijun stared at Shen Yiguan and asked his own question.
