Chongzhen chat group

Chapter 177

The most common phenomenon in this army is actually the common existence of private servants among generals.

The origin of this strange system is actually the lack of military pay allocated by the imperial court. If the original system is still followed, it is estimated that no army can fight.

Against this background, the generals, whether active or passive, gradually cut off the military pay and used it on some elite soldiers.In this way, at least some of the elite can fight tough battles and win battles.It was only later that it evolved to turn these elite soldiers into the generals' own servants, thus finally forming the wonderful family military system in the late Ming Dynasty.

This kind of military system must be changed, but because it is too common, Hu Guang is not brain-dead enough to directly ban the family system regardless.Therefore, he did not raise this point to Man Gui at this time.

He let Man Guiping get behind him again, then turned his head and told Liu Xingzuo: "Give back their people and let them deal with it themselves!"

"The last general obeys the order!" Liu Xingzuo immediately accepted the order with fists folded, and when he turned around, he was ready to bring those people out of the imperial prison to them.

Hu Guang pondered for a while and then continued: "Li Fengxiang has owed my kindness, he should be resigned from all positions, and sent to Fengyang to guard the mausoleum!"

Generally, eunuchs with status, that is, eunuchs, will end up. If they are not killed, the worst thing is to send Fengyang to guard the mausoleum.

As for Li Fengxiang, Hu Guang thought that he also had some credit for defending the capital, so he didn't kill him.And this person can understand his own meaning, and sometimes Dangto is a good hand.Let him go to Fengyang to make a good renovation, and he can consider using it again if necessary.

As for the other generals at all levels of the Beijing camp, Hu Guang did not mention it. Naturally, they were asked to stay in the imperial prison for a few days before they were dealt with.He turned his head to look at Man Gui, and told him: "The Beijing camp is corrupt from top to bottom, and now generals at all levels have been imprisoned. However, now that the Beijing camp cannot be without generals, I order you to temporarily act as the governor of the Jingying military administration, and replace I will take good care of the Beijing camp."

When Man Gui heard this, he couldn't help but be very surprised, looked up at the emperor, and was stunned for a while.

He originally thought that the emperor would punish him. After all, he made a mistake just now, but he didn't expect the emperor to let him act as the temporary governor of the capital.This position is usually held by nobles with titles, and although he was appointed to be in charge of the city defense of the capital during the Jianlu invasion of Gyeonggi.But in terms of his own position, he is actually just the general soldier of Datong.

Before he came back to his senses, Hu Guang said again: "Qing is something I can trust, and he proved himself in the battle to defend the capital. He happened to have commanded the capital camp before, so he has a good understanding of the capital camp. Therefore, I think you are very suitable."

After he finished speaking, Man Gui finally came back to his senses and was extremely pleasantly surprised.But this time, he seemed to be enlightened, and he just heard him play: "The general is afraid that he will not be able to catch it, so please send your majesty to supervise the army, so as to prevent the general from being negligent and making unintentional mistakes!"

Originally, the Beijing camp was served by civil servants or nobles as the chief army, that is, the admiral, and then there were eunuchs to supervise the army.However, at this time, the original admiral was dismissed, and Li Fengxiang, the supervising army, became the admiral of the Beijing camp directly, so there was no additional supervising army.

After hearing Man Gui's words, Hu Guang couldn't help but curl his mouth slightly, thinking, even if you don't mention it, I will send it to you.But it's good that you are so knowledgeable.

Thinking of this, he turned around and said to Wang Chengen who was standing beside him like a clay bodhisattva: "Since Manqing said so, you should go to the Beijing camp and help Manqing manage the capital camp well!"

Wang Chengen was unprepared and froze for a moment.Fortunately, he was quick-witted, and immediately came back to his senses. He was surprised and delighted, and quickly bowed to respond: "Your servant obeys the order!"

He had already been promoted to be a young supervisor at a young age, and he was already flying fast among the eunuchs.What I didn't expect was that in just a few days, he was called by the emperor to serve him by his side. In a sense, he has already received the favor of the emperor, and all the eunuchs are envious of him.

But at this time, Wang Chengen never expected that the emperor would let him be the supervisor of the Beijing camp in just a few days, obviously to use him.How could this grace not surprise him.After all, he didn't do anything, and he started to be promoted rapidly.

Not only him, but also his adoptive father Cao Huachun was also very surprised when he heard it, and there was even a trace of jealousy in a vague way.This kid doesn't know when his ancestors accumulated virtues in his life, and he got such favor.

In this world, except for Hu Guang himself, no one else would have thought that Wang Chengen was reused because he was the only eunuch who accompanied Emperor Chongzhen to hang himself in the original history.

After the arrangement here, Man Gui and Wang Chengen retreated to the Beijing camp.After all, the city defense of the capital, as well as food control, are all done by the sergeants of the capital.They have to take over the capital camp as soon as possible so as not to cause chaos in the capital.

Hu Guang then turned his head to look at Cao Huachun and said, "The people on the list will not change. I will call them to the Hall of Martial Heroes. I want to meet them in person."

Cao Huachun didn't expect such a thing to happen, and the list of special servants would remain unchanged.He was a little surprised, but he didn't dare to have any opinions, so he quickly bowed down and made arrangements.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hu Guang entered the chat group to check the situation.I found that Lu Ruipeng in the elementary group had a lot of messages, so I clicked to listen.

"Purdue sentient beings, why did you go to inform me?"

"I was found by Jin Yiwei just now, many people were found by Jin Yiwei, and our general flag was taken away!"

"It's over, it's over, it's a big deal! I reported an extra number of kills in the credit report, and this matter was also known by Jin Yiwei. It's over, it's over!"

"Purdue sentient beings, I'm definitely out of luck this time. I don't know if I will be punished. This is all caused by you. You also promised that I will be able to enter the East Factory as a slave. Now it's all right, what should I do?"

"..."

In the end, probably Lu Ruipeng never got a reply from Hu Guang, and left a message angrily: "Why didn't you talk? Did you lie to me, so you didn't dare to show up? It's all your fault. It's a good thing, and you messed it up." No more. He said he didn’t want money, so he shouldn’t have believed you at that time!”

The message is gone here, Hu Guang couldn't help shaking his head, if you don't believe me, just wait back, how could I not mean anything!

At this moment, I saw Lu Ruipeng's icon shaking: "It's not good, it's not good, just now the people from Dongchang called us again, and now they are going to the Forbidden City, saying that the emperor wants to see us. The emperor must know We falsely reported our military achievements, and we have to settle the score!"

"What should I do? They're all talking. The emperor must be very angry when Jin Yiwei reported it. If...if Longyan gets angry, will he die? Or he should be assigned to join the army..."

Hu Guang was speechless when he heard his distraught words, so he could only say, "Why are you panicking? It's a good thing!"

As soon as he heard what he said, Lu Ruipeng immediately responded: "You liar, you come to lie to me again, can this be good?"
