Be the emperor from the postman

Chapter 514 Rebel Casualties (Fourth)

The champion of Xinke is bullying the honest man Chongzhen.

Facing the slap of the rebels, I, Chen Yutai, remained obedient and dared not speak.

But in the face of Emperor Chongzhen, I, Chen Yutai, dared to strike hard and dare to speak out!

This is the strength of character of the champion!
Chongzhen choked with anger in his chest, he was so angry with the new champion that he gritted his teeth.

These people have no good way to govern the country and officials, and they are all impractical, but once they compare themselves to loyal ministers, they are very good at it!

All are virtuous and talented people!
Scholar-bureaucrats pay great attention to their own "virtue" and pay more attention to righteousness than reality, just like everyone in our circle.

People outside the circle are vulgar people and are not worthy of joining us.

The state affairs became more and more corrupt, and Chongzhen felt that there were not many talents available around him.

For many years, the imperial court has only emphasized Jinshi in employing people, and among Jinshi, it has paid special attention to Hanlin Ci officials.

Whether it is Jinshi or Hanlin, it is just that they are familiar with the "Four Books" and their articles are excellent, and they do not necessarily have the ability to govern the country.

In the Ming Dynasty, non-Jinshi did not enter the Hanlin, and non-Hanlin did not enter the cabinet, and the ministers, ministers, and officials of the Ministry of Rites in the South and North did not serve in the Hanlin.

This blocked the promotion channels for many capable officials below.

On the other hand, Jinshi have long been divorced from the reality of the grassroots and are at the top. They only talk when they encounter problems. They think that their ideas are very good.

But in fact, he lacks the ability to solve problems. Under the control of these insects, Daming will only become more and more chaotic.

Chongzhen even thought about selecting talents from magistrates and promoted officials to enter the Imperial Academy. At that time, the cabinet scholars will have both courtiers and foreign ministers.

It's just that it's just an idea at the moment, Chongzhen looks upright now, the only thing that affects the perception is the swollen mouth, the confused head of Chen Yutai, the champion of the new division.

He felt that this strategy must be implemented as soon as possible.

Just relying on this group of Jinshi, it is impossible to become his helper in Zhongxing Daming.

Look at the performance of the number one scholar, and you will know what the group of Jinshi below look like!

It is understandable for Chongzhen to think this way, but he never thought about re-dividing the cake.

Will those vested interests in the bureaucracy really agree with his strategy?
I worked so hard to win the Jinshi, and I look forward to being a cabinet minister in the future, etc. Why should I give up the opportunity to others?
Above the imperial court, there has been a game between the imperial power and the ministerial power since ancient times, otherwise eunuchs, relatives, etc. would not be released.

"Your Majesty, there is another news."

Chief Assistant Zhou Yanru reminded, and then signaled Chen Yutai with his eyes to stop talking.

If you say more now, you will make more mistakes.

To do things in the court is to talk less and do less, so as not to be caught by others and become the source of attacking you.

This Chen Yutai, really thought that becoming the number one scholar would be a smooth sailing in the court?
Innocent!

"Qizou Your Majesty, Xuancheng Bowei Shitai has led the palace guards and expelled all the rebels from the imperial city."

"it is good!"

Chongzhen couldn't help shouting, and finally heard some good news.

Everyone in the palace looked a little better.

Otherwise, the face of the royal family will be lost.

On the contrary, Cao Huachun had a stiff smile on his face, he really couldn't get down as the governor.

It is said that Cao Huachun controlled the Beijing camp, but in fact Chongzhen himself was in charge of the Beijing camp.

In order to arrest Yuan Chonghuan, Chongzhen made a series of arrangements, ordering Shen Liangzuo, the eunuch of the Rites, and Lu Zhi, the eunuch of the internal officials, to supervise the Jiumen and the Huangchengmen.

Li Fengxiang, the eunuch and eunuch of the Rites, was appointed as the governor of Zhongyongying and the admiral of Jingying.

This move is to put the guards of the capital and the imperial city under his own direct control in case of unexpected events.

Now this wave of rebels broke through the capital and the imperial city one after another, just slapped Chongzhen in the face, and they couldn't deal with unexpected events at all!

Chongzhen took two steps, then turned his head and said: "Cao Huachun, these rebels have been expelled from the imperial city, are you fully prepared?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, I have ordered all parties to set up a net, and will never let this group of rebels rush out of Beijing."

"it is good."

Chongzhen nodded slightly, no matter what, he believed in these eunuchs even more now.

Otherwise, the Beijing camp would not be all led by eunuchs. As for Xungui, he only stood guard and patrolled in the imperial city, and had no right to deploy troops.

Zhou Yanru and the others also bowed their hands: "Your Majesty, the rebels were able to easily enter Beijing this time, there must be an internal response, this matter must be investigated!"

Chongzhen nodded, this matter must not be left alone.

"Cao Huachun, Wu Mengming, you two should send someone to inspect immediately."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Cao Huachun heaved a sigh of relief. Wu Mengming, the commander of Jinyiwei, came through his own way. Now His Majesty asked him to investigate himself, but he still protected him!

"How many casualties did my Ming soldiers suffer in this battle?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, roughly speaking, our army suffered thousands of casualties. In order to block the rebels, the Yanshan Frontier almost wiped out the entire army."

Chongzhen hurriedly asked: "Are there three thousand rebel casualties?"

The Yanshan former guards were silent and did not dare to take the fight.

"one thousand?"

The Yanshan former guards continued to remain silent.

Chongzhen nodded slightly: "This group of people dared to attack the palace, they must be arrogant soldiers, and their casualties were five hundred?"

The former guards of Yanshan did not dare to speak.

Seeing this situation, Cao Huachun hurriedly urged: "Quickly report the situation."

"Return to Your Majesty, only eighteen corpses of rebels are left behind."

Chongzhen froze for a moment, his eyes were full of disbelief, thousands of people were killed and injured in our Beijing camp, and only eighteen corpses were left behind by the rebels!

How was the battle fought?

Are all Jingying soldiers trash?
The soldiers in the Beijing camp are all the most powerful in Ming Dynasty, how can they be defeated by the rebels?
Chief Assistant Zhou Yanru glanced at Chongzhen. If Yuan Chonghuan really had the intention of treason and entered Beijing, the entire Beijing camp might not be a match for Guan Ningjun.

Fortunately, I used a trick to take him down and killed him again!

Otherwise, he would not be the chief assistant.

And he also knew that the soldiers of the Jingying Army were really all ostentatious.

Cao Huachun breathed a sigh of relief just now, and raised it again.

The soldiers guarding the imperial city are so weak?

When the eunuch Lu Zhi heard the news, he knelt on the ground directly. He was in charge of guarding the entire imperial city gate.

Such battle damage is now over.

"What did you say?"

Chongzhen stepped forward quickly, leaned over and stared at the soldier who lowered his head: "Say it again."

"Returning to Your Majesty, there are only eighteen corpses of rebels and one wounded soldier."

Chongzhen couldn't swallow this breath, and said viciously: "How did you fight?"

"The rebels were heavy cavalry who raided our army's infantry, they swung out three times and killed them thoroughly.

There were also light cavalry harassing on the two wings, and Lord Hou died tragically from the artillery, which affected morale.

My Yanshan vanguard resisted desperately before waiting for reinforcements to arrive.

Your Majesty, I, the avant-garde man from Yanshan, did not escape from the battle! "

The battle has been fought to this point, and Chongzhen is silent.

Because when the Hou Jin Tartars ravaged Beijing, Man Gui led an army of [-] to face the few elite Tartar cavalry and the entire army was wiped out.

In that battle, two general soldiers were killed and two general soldiers were captured. These are still Qin Wang soldiers.

He had to admit that the combat power of the frontier army should be stronger than the soldiers of the Beijing camp.

　Thanks to the overlord of the Milky Way, Chu Dayan, for sponsoring 100 taels of silver.
