Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 298 The imperial guards enter Jinling, and the red lady towns the imperial city

When Hao Guangming introduced Liu Shuying and Bi Zhu, two strange women in the late Ming Dynasty, who were Wen and Wu, another strange woman, Hong Niangzi, brought the first battalion of the first town of the imperial guards, the general of thousands of personal soldiers, the cavalry sentry and a group of A total of 5000 sentinel female soldiers entered Nanjing City.

It first entered the outer city through the Jiangdong Gate, then entered the inner city through the Shicheng Gate, and went south to the imperial city.

Although officers and soldiers from the Beijing camp set up guards at fixed points in Nanjing, and people from the five city soldiers and horses patrolled the city, the people were not prohibited from traveling.

Therefore, as soon as the popular lady led the [-] imperial guards into the city, it attracted many people's onlookers.

The red lady rode on a tall horse and led a group of female cavalry in the forefront, all of them were dressed in fine fiery red cloth face armor and a big red cloak.

Then came the Thousand Commander-in-Chief soldiers, all wearing plate armor and general helmets.

Then there was the first battalion of the Imperial Guard with 3500 people, which was equipped with a sentry artillery, pulled ten new artillery pieces, and carried thirty tiger squatting artillery pieces into the city together.

Finally, there is a sentry sentry cavalry, which is also well equipped.

The common people began to see a strange army entering the city, and they instinctively closed the doors of shops and houses, and only dared to peek through the cracks in the windows and doors, or look at the corners and alleys in the distance.

Seeing that this team not only marched neatly, but also that the soldiers held their heads high and their chests straight, without any intention of harassing the shops or people on the street, the common people felt relieved and began to discuss with the people around them.

"Such an elite can be called the king's division. I don't know which general's army it is."

"Didn't you hear? It's the army of Princess Jian Guo."

"Princess Jian Guo?"

"It's the princess Kunxing who was rumored to be in charge of the country in Sichuan some time ago and who can also use spells."

"Princess Kunxing? Could it be the heroic female general in front?"

"I don't know. But it doesn't look like age. I heard that Princess Kunxing is only sixteen or seventeen years old. This female general is obviously in her twenties."

"···"

One is on the tea house facing the street.

More than half a month ago, Xie Xuelong, who was impeached by Zhu Guobi, Zhang Sunzhen and others when he was appointed Minister of the Ministry of Justice, was taking his son Xie Yi to drink tea.

More than a quarter of an hour ago, when he heard that Princess Kunxing led an army to the city, Xie Xuelong was still thinking about how the court would respond, whether to negotiate peace with Princess Kunxing, or defend the city and fight against her.

Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, Princess Kunxing's army entered the city so swaggeringly.

Xie Yi looked at the imperial guards marching towards the imperial city on the main street in the distance, and couldn't help showing admiration, and said, "Father, look, this Princess Kunxing's army looks comparable to the capitals of the Beijing camp and the four Jiangbei towns." Like an elite!"

After finishing speaking, he found that Xie Xuelong was frowning, and he couldn't help but wondered: "The princess's army directly entered the city and never fought with the Beijing camp, which means that His Majesty probably negotiated peace with Princess Kunxing.

It is undoubtedly a good thing to avoid a civil strife. Why is my father so worried? "

Xie Xuelong is a 64-year-old Wanli student. He is [-] years old this year. He has gray beard and hair, and his face is obviously sick.

He was in Chongzhen for 12 years. He was regarded as a "party shelter" by Chongzhen because he protected and impeached Yang Sichang. It is the Minister of the Ministry of punishment.

It is a pity that although Xie Xuelong had no deep friendship with the Donglin Party members during his tenure, he was expelled from the court because the second minister and the Donglin Party members were convicted of lesser crimes and violated the wishes of Ma Shiying's cabinet.

Historically, during the Nanjing city slope this year, Xie Xuelong threw himself into the river to die for his country, and his son Xie Yi also died.

Listening to Xie Yi's question, Xie Xuelong sighed: "Based on what I know about the present and the cabinet, if Princess Kunxing is really in Sichuan to supervise the country, the possibility of them having peace talks with her is very low.

Now Princess Kunxing's army has directly entered the city. I'm afraid it's either because of some conspiracy or conspiracy by those in the palace, or there is a big change in the palace. "

Xie Yi also frowned upon hearing this.

As Xie Xuelong said, no matter what the situation is, it seems that it is not a good thing for Daming.

In the end, Xie Yi could only look at the imperial guards in the distance and sigh: "If the army under Princess Kunxing's command is such a well-disciplined, well-equipped army of kings who have never committed any crime against the common people, then that would be great." .”

···
After Hong Niangzi came to the imperial city, she only took over the patrol of Miyagi because of her limited troops, while the imperial city was patrolled by the Shangzhi army who had defected to Ma Shiying.

However, just to be on the safe side, Hong Niangzi also sent some soldiers to participate.

However, after Hong Niangzi took over the patrol of Miyagi, she brought a sentry female soldier to the Jinshen Hall where Zhu Yousong and others were under house arrest.

As the palace door opened, Zhu Yousong and others watched the red lady lead the troops in, and couldn't help guessing: This is Princess Kunxing?Look a bit old?

However, thinking of his possible end, Zhu Yousong didn't think too much about it, and his panda eyes burst into tears, and he cried to the red lady, "Niece, I am your uncle.

Uncle didn't know that you were ordered by the late emperor to oversee the country, and Ma Shiying and the four towns in Jiangbei forced you to take the throne, so he never wanted to compete with you for the throne! "

Hearing this, the red lady frowned, and shouted: "I am the admiral of the imperial guards, the red lady, not the supervisor of the country. If you keep screaming, don't blame me for letting someone gag you."

In fact, Zhu Yousong's mouth was blocked by the female soldiers of the Suzaku Battalion before.

Seeing that the red lady was coming, he was afraid that Zhu Yousong would be too miserable and ugly, so he took off the rag from his mouth.

Zhu Yousong didn't expect that the red lady was not Auntie Zhu, she was pretty, but she was so fierce that she shrank into a ball when she was drunk.

After touching his swollen mouth, he didn't dare to say another word after all, so he could only curl up beside his seat in aggrieved manner.

As for the emperor's throne in the Jinshen Palace, it now belongs to Zhu Yuxi, so the female soldiers will naturally not sit for Zhu Yousong.

Afterwards, Hong Niangzi chatted with Quan Zhixuan, Ma Shiying and others successively. After learning about the specific situation here, she asked Zhu Yousong, Zhu Guobi, Zhao Zhilong and others to be taken to the Xipei Hall of Jinshen Hall to see the guards. .

She set up a temporary headquarters in the East Side Hall, and reported the specific situation here to Auntie Zhu on the walkie-talkie.

After Hong Niangzi finished her report, Zhu Yuxi brought up the matter of Hong Niangzi's request to send more troops to control Nanjing City.

"Are Zeng Ying, Yang Zhan, and Liu Wenxiu all there?"

"The minister is here." The three responded one after another.

Aimee Zhu then continued: "For the request made by Hong Niangzi, the son-in-law gave two suggestions, please listen to them and give advice."

Then he said Hao Guangming's two suggestions.

After hearing this, Zeng Ying immediately said: "I think the two proposals of the son-in-law are feasible, and they can actually solve the problem of our lack of soldiers and horses."

Hong Niangzi, Yang Zhan, and Liu Wenxiu also agreed.

Aunt Zhu said: "Since this is the case, the responsibility of Hong Niangzi will be great, and the Beijing camp must be eliminated and reorganized within three days.

In this way, Liu Wenxiu and Yang Zhan will bring your soldiers and horses into the city to help.

By the way, all the former Nanjing officials and troops, including the Wucheng Bingmasi and the Shangzhi Army guarding the imperial city, were selected and reorganized. "

"I'm waiting for orders!"

Although the three days were extremely short, Hong Niangzi and the others didn't think there was any problem with this move.

In the previous meeting, Auntie Zhu had already made it very clear-this time to rectify all kinds of officers and soldiers in Nanjing City, she did not seek to get many useful soldiers and horses, but only wanted to disintegrate the previous Nanjing officers and troops and seize most of the troops that were not worthy of trust armor.

In this way, it will be safer for Hong Niangzi to control Nanjing City with tens of thousands of hands in the future.

Of course, it would be even better if [-] to [-] or more useful troops could be assembled.

After finalizing this discussion, Aunt Zhu said again: "Next, you can discuss in detail how to rectify Nanjing's soldiers and horses.

However, there must be someone who understands the situation of the various armies in Nanjing.

It happened that Ben Gong had something to discuss with Ma Shiying later, so Hong Niangzi called him over to join the meeting. "

　Second more.

　　Let me share another poem by Liu Shuying.

　　"Huang Yinger: Respect for the Return of Hechuan"

　　Say goodbye to Qinguan with tears, send Mulan boat to Xiaowan.Danxin does not drive out of the cage.The peach blossoms are full of Yin, the dragon sword is leisurely, and the long moon is covered with shame.If you are sick and weak, how can you die for your country?It is suitable to lie on Shouyang Mountain.

　　How many Nings are there in the lonely world, and they already occupy the second place in the sky.Calmly and coldly looking at the affairs of the world, partly feigning madness, partly full of anger, haggard with rage.Buying a knife and carrying wine to travel around the world, laughing at him as a mite carrying luggage.There is no evidence in the long sky, but the lonely life is the only one.

　　(Personally, although Liu Shuying's poetry is not as good as Li Qingzhao's in the Song Dynasty, it is definitely better than many people's poetry in the Ming Dynasty.)
