Chapter 46 The Emperor is Here
When you are an emperor, you must not have black and white ideas, but weigh interests, which is definitely a profound knowledge.

In Jiang Dejing's eyes, the former Emperor Chongzhen had no skills at all. If he trusted a minister, he would believe whatever the minister said!Once you feel that you have been deceived by this minister, you will hate this minister to the core!

How could an emperor who used people like this be a good emperor?
Not to mention anything else, how many chief assistants have there been in the Chongzhen Dynasty?They are all attacked by their political opponents because of a small issue, and they fall because of black and white. Why do people do things like this?
There are also five governors of Jizhen in half a year. In which dynasty could this happen?

To be honest, Jiang Dejing was actually disappointed with the emperor in front of him.

But he didn't expect that the emperor's performance in the past two days shocked him.He even really doubted whether Emperor Taizu really had a dream and really gave guidance to the current emperor, so that there would be such a big change, so much so that today he is showing great courage to punish the chaos in the court.

These words spoken at this time must have been taught by Emperor Taizu, right?At least it was Emperor Taizu before the founding of the People's Republic of China!

I don’t know why, but at this time, Jiang Dejing seemed to see the hope of Ming Dynasty again!

When Tang Tong heard Emperor Chongzhen's words, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he felt grateful in his heart.

To be honest, he had despised the emperor before he came.Over the years, he thought he had clearly seen the emperor's virtues.Unexpectedly, it turned out that I had been wrong before!

Not long after, the group of people came out of Andingmen.

Because he was not notified in advance, Emperor Chongzhen saw the eight thousand troops outside the city at a glance.

I saw that this army was just parked in the open space under the official road, and a small part of it was just cavalry.In the cold wind, these soldiers huddled together to keep warm.

To be honest, at first glance, Emperor Chongzhen was a little disappointed.

This was not what an army should look like at all. It was not what he imagined. They lined up there neatly and remained motionless despite the howling cold wind. Those were the elite of the frontier army.

But in the army in front of us, only a small number of soldiers wore distinctive armor, and they looked like soldiers at first glance.As for most of the soldiers, the original red mandarin duck jackets on their bodies were almost no longer red.And they were all crowded together. If it weren't for the weapons on their bodies and they were far away, they would have thought they were a group of refugees!

Seeing this, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but turned cold and turned to look at Tang Tong behind him.It seems to be saying silently, is this your elite frontier army?

In fact, this army would not have been like this, because Tang Tong led them to come to the capital to cry out for poverty so that they could get more money, so he deliberately let them behave like this.

Of course, since there is no military pay, the real situation is actually just like that, not much better.

At this moment, Tang Tong shot himself in the foot. He had just been forgiven by the emperor. If he displeased the emperor again, he would probably settle old and new accounts together.

If Emperor Chongzhen still has no money, maybe he doesn't care about the emperor!But now the emperor has brought hundreds of thousands of silver, how dare he make the emperor unhappy!

Therefore, Tang Tong hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, this soldier is definitely a good soldier. The soldiers in Jizhen are from military households and are good at fighting. It's just because there is no military pay and supplies that they don't look like they are!"

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he didn't say anything more, but simply ordered: "Assemble!"

His top priority is to master an army that can fight. Even if the organization is chaotic and improvised, that will be fine, but the quality of the officers and soldiers in the army must still be good.Without this foundation, it would be impossible to create an elite force in a short period of time.

When Tang Tong heard what Emperor Chongzhen said, he felt a little relieved. He immediately urged his horse to speed up and ran towards his men. At the same time, he shouted loudly: "Gather, the emperor is here, gather quickly!" The personal guards who followed him, They also shouted and scattered in all directions, urging the entire army to assemble.Anyone who slows down will be scolded immediately.If you don't move well, you will be embarrassed in front of the emperor.

The soldiers of Ji Town had actually seen these people coming out of the city a long time ago, but they still did not move, not because of the cold weather, but because they had complaints in their hearts.

The long-term arrears in military pay had already worn away their goodwill towards the court.

Even because they have no money, they live in poverty and hardship, so much so that they don't like their coach!
In the original history, after Tang Tong surrendered to Li Zicheng, he was ordered by Li Zicheng to attack Wu Sangui. As a result, the eight thousand men surrendered to Wu Sangui without hesitation, causing Tang Tong to escape with a few guards. .

At this time, they heard the shouting and immediately thought they had heard it wrong.

"What did you hear? Who is here? The Emperor? Did I hear it correctly?"

"I also heard that the emperor is here. Could it be that the man in the golden helmet is the emperor of our Ming Dynasty?"

"This is impossible. How could the emperor go out of the city in such a cold weather? Shouldn't he be hiding in the Forbidden City, grilling over charcoal fire and eating white steamed buns?"

"Can you please forget about the white steamed buns? My mouth is watering!"

"I must have heard wrong. The emperor is scared to death. When will he leave the city? And who are we? We are not great people, nor have we won a great victory, so that the emperor can come out of the city?"

"..."

In short, no one believed that the emperor would leave the city.

However, they also saw that there was an official wearing a scarlet robe among the crowd. They knew this official robe, at least he was on the same level as the Governor of Jizhen. They did not dare to neglect again, lest they be picked on by the dog officials again. .

As for whether they can get some money this time, to be honest, these soldiers basically have no hope!
If the court had money, the world would not be in such chaos!

Once they get serious, it can be seen from the speed of assembly that they are not farmers with weapons, but really soldiers!
Then, they also discovered that something was wrong.

The official in the red scarlet robe was not the one who was surrounded, but the man in the golden helmet and armor who was surrounded by everyone.Including their coach, when he ran over, he also paid tribute to the man in the golden helmet.

At this time, they discovered that there were many Jin Yiwei.Although most of them have never seen Jin Yiwei, there are still a small number of people who have seen Jin Yiwei guarding the angels delivering orders.

The presence of so many royal guards proves from another aspect that even if that person is not an emperor, he is still a prince or something like that.

This time, they were surprised.

I did hear it before, saying that the emperor was coming.

An answer, or the truth, emerged in the mind of every Jizhen soldier: Could that person really be the Ming Emperor?
