Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 304 Aunt Zhu Appointed the Trial Team, and the Gongtun Army Cleaned Up Nanjing City

Two days later.

Hong Niangzi, Liu Wenxiu, and Yang Zhan quickly completed the selection and reorganization of more than [-] Nanjing officers and soldiers with the assistance of two township guards and one border guard.

It can be so fast, not only because there are enough people who can be used to handle affairs, but also because Hong Niangzi and others have several times of experience in large-scale selection and reorganization.

However, the result of the selection of soldiers was worse than what Zhu Yuxi and others had expected.

The 10,000+ Nanjing officers and soldiers selected only more than 4 elite soldiers, and only [-] soldiers who dared to fight.

Only 3 or [-] people were actually selected and discharged.

Because there are still 6 or [-] people who meet the conditions of the Gongtun Army—these people are not incompatible with age or physical fitness, but because most of them are rogues and scoundrels from the Nanjing well in the city, and it is difficult to train them.

The rest are mostly from the bourgeoisie, not to mention timid and weak, but they are also good at stealing, raping and playing tricks.

In the eyes of generals such as Hong Niangzi, allowing these people to join the army will not only fail to improve the combat effectiveness of the army, but will also bring down the morale of the army.

However, most of these people are young and unemployed. If they are directly discharged from the army, it will affect the stability of Nanjing society.

Auntie Zhu simply asked Hong Niangzi to organize these people into the Five Towns Gongtun Army and save them for other purposes.

As for the elite soldiers and soldiers who dared to fight, they were reorganized into four Nanjing garrison towns, and received training from personnel sent by the imperial guards and border guards in the original Beijing camp garrison.

As for the former generals of the Beijing camp, almost all of them were involved in corruption in the Beijing camp, even the generals who were personally attached to Ma Shiying were no exception.

These people are currently under house arrest in the Beijing camp, waiting to be investigated, and naturally they will not be arranged as generals of the new army.

Therefore, Hong Niangzi used the guards and border guards in charge of training as the acting battalion officer and general manager.

As for the generals below Qian Zong, they will be elected by the soldiers after reorganization.

Of course, the selected people are also only acting generals, and they need to be considered qualified after completing the training before they can become regulars.

Compared with Hong Niangzi and others' efficient and rapid rectification of Nanjing Jingying, Ma Shiying's investigation of Beijing's corruption case has not yet begun.

Although Aimee Zhu knew that under normal circumstances the officials of the Ming Dynasty were so efficient, she was still dissatisfied.

April [-]th.

When Aimee Zhu was about to lead the army to leave Nanjing for Yangzhou, she took the opportunity of Ma Shiying to see him off to inquire.

"Why hasn't the review of Beijing-run corruption cases started yet?"

Hearing the accusation in Auntie Zhu's tone, Ma Shiying couldn't help sweating from his forehead, but he didn't dare to wipe it off, and explained carefully: "Reporting to Jian Guo, since the false emperor took the throne in Nanjing, although he followed the original six teams, The ministries of the imperial court have been established, but due to the case of the demon monk, the case of the concubine, and the case of the fake prince, there are many vacancies in each department, and they have not yet been filled.

Take the Ministry of Punishment as an example, and now there is no Shangshu.

Most of the remaining officials are also involved with Zhao Zhilong, Zhu Guobi, etc., so they are really not suitable to try this case..."

Hearing Ma Shiying say a lot, Zhu Yu felt that what he said was just an excuse for his inefficiency.

So he directly interrupted Ma Shiying and said, "You don't need to talk too much, just tell me how long it will take for the case to be cleared?"

Ma Shiying thought to himself, the case has not been clarified yet, how can there be a certain period for the trial?
Even if Auntie Zhu had already set the tone for this matter, he estimated that it would take a month before and after.

He knew that Auntie Zhu would not accept such a long time, so he hesitated.

Hao Guangming was angry and disappointed when he saw Ma Shiying's appearance through mobile phone video.

He had seen Ma Shiying defeating the Donglin Party in Nanjing before, and thought he was such a capable person. Now it seems that he may have ability, but he is really mediocre.

Hao Guangming thought for a while, and then made a suggestion, "At an extraordinary time, do extraordinary things. Listening to what Ma Shiying said, it is nothing more than that it is difficult to select officials to investigate and try corruption cases in the Beijing camp. All right···"

Ma Shiying stood on the deck of the royal boat, listening to Auntie Zhu's silence for a long time, sweating coldly.

Just when he was about to lose his hold and wanted to take the initiative to speak, he finally heard Aimee Zhu speak again.

"Since you feel that it is difficult to choose the officials who will handle this case, I will help you choose.

You will be the presiding judge of this case, and then you will resume Xie Xuelong's official position as Shangshu of the Criminal Department and make him the deputy judge.

Several low-level officials under the age of 40 who were not involved in the case were selected from Dali Temple, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Ministry of Criminal Justice to be responsible for the specific investigation of the case.

Regular ten days, regardless of progress, must have a result.Otherwise, I will be completely disappointed in you. "

After hearing these words, Ma Shiying understood that Auntie Zhu was really dissatisfied with him.

And this time, the official group of officials adjudicating the case and the time period for adjudicating the case are set, which is likely to be his last chance to demonstrate his value and ability.

If he can't be grasped, even if Auntie Zhu made a promise before, I'm afraid he can only be an idle official in the court in the future, or even be forced to resign.

"I obey the order." Ma Shiying bowed deeply.

At the same time, there was a ruthless look in his eyes—this time, he must not soften his heart to those who were attached to him before!

···
Aimee Zhu's move to lead the army to leave Nanjing was beyond the expectations of many people.

However, these people soon felt that even though Auntie Zhu left, she was still deeply affecting the city of Nanjing.

On the day when Auntie Zhu left, groups of officers and soldiers who belonged to the Jingying Army and now belonged to the Gongtun Army walked out of the Jingying Camp and walked into the streets and alleys of Nanjing City led by the instructors of the Imperial Guards.

None of these workers had any armor on them, they only wore a fiery red military uniform.

What they hold in their hands are not knives and guns, but tools such as brooms, shovels, and hoes.

At first, the common people saw the officers and soldiers patrolling in groups, and saw that the queues were more orderly and imposing than before, but they seemed to be the original Beijing camp officers and soldiers, and they were a little scared.

But seeing that the leaders of each team were guardsmen in plate armor and flying saucer hats, the common people were not so afraid again.

Although the imperial guards had only entered Nanjing for three days, they had already won the initial trust of the people of Nanjing by relying on good military discipline and the performance of not committing any crimes against the people.

Seeing that the teams of officers and soldiers are not holding weapons, but working tools, the common people can't help but wait and see curiously.

Soon, the people who were watching realized that there was no need to follow them specially—these officers and soldiers seemed to have at least one team passing by in every street and alley.

Of course, when the officers and soldiers arrived at the door, the people became more cautious, and they all went back to the house and closed the doors and windows, leaving only a gap to secretly look outside, or stand on the sidelines of the courtyard wall.

At this time, Wang Ahqi moved a ladder to the courtyard wall, and then only one head emerged from the ladder to look out.

He is from Nanjing, and his ancestors have left some family property. Although he has lived a bit of poverty in his generation, as a family in Nanjing and a big man in a big shop, he also has a virtuous lady and a pair of sons and daughters.

Previously in the shop, seeing officers and soldiers coming out, the shopkeeper closed the shop for fear of accidents, and he was able to come back and take care of the house.

Seeing the officers and soldiers coming in the alley, the wife was afraid at first, but she felt relieved when she saw him come back, but who knew that he was spying on the officers and soldiers like this, and hurriedly shouted in a low voice: "The head of the house, come down quickly!"

Wang Ahqi also lowered his voice, and replied, "Don't be afraid, I'll just take a look."

The wife was afraid that the officers and soldiers outside would notice her husband if she uttered any more noises. Although she was anxious, she didn't dare to yell again, so she could only hold her son and daughter anxiously in the small courtyard.

At this time, the shouts of officers and soldiers came from outside.

"Listen to me, and then you'll divide the lane into ten sections—I've divided this alley into ten sections, and every five will contract a section to clean up the sludge and useless debris.

After half an hour, to see which team has done the best, each person will have a bowl of oil soup for lunch.

Which team did the worst, and when I go back today, I will be responsible for washing the clothes of the whole team.Do you understand everything? "

Most of the soldiers at the bottom of the Beijing camp did not live very well before, and some were even forced to enter the Beijing camp to be exploited.

Now after reorganization, even though they only entered the Gongtun army for a day or two, everyone has already received a month's military pay, and even the food is better than before.

Therefore, even though they knew that they were being pulled out to clean the streets this time, everyone still had a lot of morale.

After hearing the words of the instructor of the imperial guards, they immediately responded in unison: "I understand!"

"Then why are you still standing there? Let me do it!"

"Yes!"

Following the shouts of these officers and soldiers, Wang Ah Qi was stunned by what happened next.
