Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 299 Ma Shiying and the Conference Beijing Camp

Ma Shiying was in the Xipei Hall at this time, accompanying Zhu Yousong and others who were being detained, feeling very disturbed.

Because he knew that Hong Niangzi was reporting the situation in the palace to Aimee Zhu through the magic weapon called "walkie-talkie".

He also knew that although Hong Niangzi, Quan Zhixuan and the others didn't say anything, he was actually one of the people under house arrest in the palace.

Even though he had seen the video of Aimee Zhu promising not to hold him accountable, he was still worried that things would change. After all, he knew too little about Aimee Zhu's side, and he didn't even understand many things at all, just like a child who broke into a new world .

What's more, he is still a person who is keen on power.

Therefore, safety is not his entire pursuit, not even the highest pursuit, power is.

Daming with Zhu Yuxi made him see greater possibilities, and he hoped to occupy a place in the new dynasty established by Zhu Yuxi.

Suddenly, the door of the Xipei Hall was opened, and a female soldier from the Suzaku Battalion came in and said, "Master Ma, Jian Guozhuan, you went to attend the intercom meeting."

"Intercom meeting?" Ma Shiying was puzzled.

Guess it should have something to do with the walkie-talkie, but I don't fully understand it.

The female soldier said: "You will know when you follow me."

Ma Shiying could only follow the female soldiers to the East Side Hall.

In the hall, apart from the female soldiers from the Suzaku Camp and the Red Lady's personal soldiers, there is only Quan Zhixuan.

"Red Army Gate." Ma Shiying took the initiative to greet the red lady, not flattering, but definitely an active gesture of affection.

The red lady said directly: "I can't find a seat in this hall, so I can only let Master Ma stand to participate in the meeting."

Ma Shiying didn't know how to answer, so he could only smile.

At this time, a clear and majestic girlish voice came from the walkie-talkie held by Hong Niangzi.

"Is Ma Shiying here?"

The red lady immediately said: "Report to the supervisor, Ma Shiying has arrived."

It was only then that Ma Shiying realized that it was Aimee Zhu who was speaking on the walkie-talkie, and immediately bowed to the walkie-talkie and said loudly: "Ma Shiying, the guilty minister, is here to see Qiansui Jianguo!"

There was a slight silence on the intercom.

Just when Ma Shiying was worried, she heard Aunt Zhu say: "Ping body."

"Thank you Jianguo!"

Then, Aunt Zhu asked Hong Niangzi, Zeng Ying, Yang Zhan, and Liu Wenxiu to discuss how to select and reorganize Nanjing officers and soldiers.

If you don't understand anything, you can ask Ma Shiying.

Ma Shiying had previously served as Minister of the Ministry of War of the Hongguang court, and he participated in the construction of various officials and armies in Nanjing, so he could answer most of the questions asked by Hong Niangzi and others.

Occasionally, if someone didn't know, they sent people to ask Zhu Guobi, Zhao Zhilong and Liu Kongzhao.

Or send someone to the Yamen of the Ministry of War in the imperial city ahead to inquire.

In this way, after half an hour, Zhu Wei and others found out the situation of the officers and soldiers in Nanjing.

There are mainly the Beijing Camp with an actual number of about 12, the Wucheng Bingma Division with about 3000 patrolling soldiers, the Shangzhi Army (Jinyi Xiaowei) with more than 5000 people, and the Caojiang Navy with more than [-] people.

As for the arresters and yamen servants in Jiangning and Shangyuan counties, there are less than a thousand people, which is not considered to be a fighting force.

It is the soldiers of the various guards that originally belonged to Nanjing City. They have long since become ordinary people, and they are not considered soldiers.

Therefore, the actual number of troops in Nanjing City is only [-] to [-].

As for the number of elite soldiers and soldiers who dare to fight, it is not known yet, but it is certainly not many.

If it is really strong, it will not be the case that in history, when the Qing army approached the city, it would not directly surrender.

After discussing how to select and reorganize the officers and soldiers in Nanjing, Ma Shiying was confident that he had a comprehensive understanding of the matter, and wanted to show his talent to Auntie Zhu, so he reminded: "Report to the supervisor, the officers and soldiers in Nanjing After all, there are 10,000+, and it would be a waste of money to place the eliminated soldiers according to the regulations discussed this time."

Ma Shiying said this because he wanted Auntie Zhu to ask him for money.

In the past, although there were a lot of treasury silver owned by the Hongguang court, there was also a lot of money to be paid, and it was still in a state of being unable to make ends meet.

If Zhu Yu asked him for money, Ma Shiying would explain the situation of the treasury of the household department of the Hongguang court.Then when Auntie Zhu was frowning, he would take over the matter of making money.

He believes that no monarch can refuse a courtier who can make money.

Even if this monarch is really a fairy, it is no exception, right?
After all, gods and Buddhas also want money these days.

Even "gods and Buddhas" can do some bottomless things for money...
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Auntie Zhu said, "The matter of money is not a problem—you only need to do well what I have ordered, and the military expenses will naturally be sufficient."

Ma Shiying was taken aback.

Although she was disappointed that Auntie Zhu didn't ask him for money, at least it was worthwhile to be able to be ordered by Auntie Zhu to do things.

So he hurriedly asked: "I don't know what the supervisor wants to order? The guilty minister will try his best to do it well."

Aimee Zhu's crisp voice came from the walkie-talkie, "According to what you said, there should be 20 troops in the Beijing camp, but now there are only [-] to [-], and only tens of thousands of them are capable of fighting.

Such a situation must be due to corruption and dereliction of duty by Zhao Zhilong, Zhu Guobi, and Gao Qiqian who are in charge of the Beijing camp.

Since the Beijing camp is going to be rectified this time, you will be responsible for organizing people to investigate the corruption in the Beijing camp to the bottom.

If Zhao Zhilong and Zhu Guobi were guilty, at least one of them should be punished for the crime of confiscating their family and cutting their nobles.

As for Gao Qiqian, intending to gather troops to stir up civil strife in Ming Dynasty, he is really a rebellious minister and traitor, and it is not an exaggeration to punish him for the crime of confiscating his family and Yi clan! "

After hearing this, Ma Shiying couldn't help swallowing her saliva, and looked at the walkie-talkie with a look of horror on her face.

He never thought that this young girl, Jian Guo, who had never met before, would be so murderous.

In this meeting, he was asked to deal with Zhao, Zhu, and Gao—even though he said in his words that he would handle the case based on corruption in the Beijing camp, but since Auntie Zhu said so, and asked him to handle it by name, can he not? Can Aimi Zhu be satisfied?

Unless he doesn't want to hang out with Aimee Zhu.

However, Gao Qiqian is good to say, this person has repeatedly committed crimes, and is also a royal family slave, since he dared to use soldiers and horses to meddle in the affairs of the imperial power, it is no exaggeration to punish him as a barbarian.

But Zhao Zhilong and Zhu Guobi are the founding lords after all, so why did Zhu Yu want to call at least one of them for the crime of confiscating their family and destroying their nobles?

Thinking of this, Ma Shiying suddenly remembered that Auntie Zhu said that there was a way to solve the military expenses.

Could it be that it refers to the inspection of these noble family wealth?
Realizing this, Ma Shiying's eyes lit up.

Although Zhao Zhilong and Zhu Guobi were his collaborators before, they could even be said to be partisans.But as a civil servant, even if he is a minister of power, he and Xungui actually cannot stand together.

Aimee Zhu is going to deal with Nanjing Xungui, and he is happy to help.

Thinking that there was another nobleman involved in the Beijing camp, he asked, "What about Liu Kongzhao, the sincerity uncle of the governor of the right government and the patrol envoy of Caojiang? If he is also related to corruption in the Beijing camp, how should we deal with it?"

"Sincerity..." Judging by the words coming out of the walkie-talkie, Auntie Zhu obviously pondered for a while, "It depends on the situation and fines the money."

This time Ma Shiying was puzzled again.

They are all nobles from Nanjing, so why do you want to be lenient when you come to Uncle Chengyi?
Ma Shiying didn't understand, but the red lady next to her looked thoughtful.

When she heard this, she understood.

Mostly in the history of later generations, Zhao Zhilong and Zhu Guobi were surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, but Chengyi Bo Liu Kong did not take care of him, or died for his country.

Otherwise, Auntie Zhu would definitely not be lenient.

Although Ma Shiying didn't understand Aimi Zhu's true thoughts, she still responded, "Please don't worry to the supervisor, the guilty minister will definitely handle this matter well."

"En." Zhu Yuxi responded casually, and said again: "Since I promise not to hold you accountable for supporting the false emperor in the past, you don't have to call yourself a criminal minister."

Ma Shiying couldn't help being overjoyed to hear that Aimee Zhu personally pardoned the crime of supporting King Fu, and hurriedly bowed to the walkie-talkie again: "I thank the supervisor!"

　Make up for the day before yesterday.

　　Good night~
