Lu Xiangsheng, who had just taken up the post of secretary of the Ministry of War, under the leadership of a subordinate, inspected the Beijing camp for the first time with great interest, thinking that the military camp was a strict place, but when he looked at the ground, Lu Xiangsheng was surprised: "This is also a military camp" Originally, the military camp was located in the eastern part of the city.
This area is the most prosperous place in the capital, and in recent years, the city is wide and the displaced people have gathered here.
With the fall of the Beijing camp, the military camp has been surrounded by restaurants, tea shops, Qinglou Chu Pavilions, casinos, and merchants, and there are many houses, and the peddlers and pawns come and go like carp, and the sound of silk and bamboo and selling is endless.
The red dust wants to roll in, how can the army be garrisoned in such an environment The group came to the front of the Beijing camp, and no one stood guard to stop it, and there was no one to see on the Diao Tower, so the group went directly into the undefended Beijing camp, which surprised Lu Xiangsheng, who had trained the Tianxiong Army in Baoding, this is a military camp, and it is more convenient to enter and exit than to enter and exit the neighborhood, you enter the neighborhood, and there are old people and children to inquire, a bad answer may attract the chief of the Lizheng to interrogate, and there is no one to check here at all.
Especially along the way, it is much quieter than the surrounding neighborhoods, because there are not a few people along the way, and even if they do, they are just scolding and complaining crookedly, where there is still a little bit of military camp This makes Lu Xiangsheng angry, if it was when Baoding governed the Tianxiong Army, Lu Xiangsheng would have cut off his head all over the ground.
Suppressing the anger, a few people first went to the Jingwei Command Division, the management organ of the Beijing camp, fortunately, most of the officials of the Command Department got the news in advance, and three of the ten came, and when they saw Lord Shangshu coming in, they hurriedly gave a courtesy.
Lu Xiangsheng looked at it, these people were all born white and fat, looking overnourished, and they all had big bellies.
He was also not wearing a military uniform.
When I think back to the situation when I came in, it was as if no one else in the barracks had any weapons.
There was no semblance of murder in the barracks.
Lu Xiangsheng suppressed his anger, just snorted, and then asked, "Where is the commander of the Beijing camp?"
As a result, all the civil and military officers replied in unison: "Lord Qiyu, Lord Commander doesn't know that Lord Shangshu is patrolling the camp today, and he went to Changping to inspect the sub-camp yesterday. ” Lu Xiangsheng's heart tightened, originally in order to prevent Lu Hanqiang from changing the Shanxi army, Chongzhen personally ordered a section of the Beijing camp to be stationed in Changping, at this time, the commander's reason is also reasonable, but whether it is true or false, or deliberately avoiding himself, it is difficult to say.
The next step is to review the whole army.
Lu Xiangsheng was about to ask someone to beat the drum, but a deputy general said respectfully and humbly: "Lord Shangshu, this drum has not been beaten for many years, and even if it is, it is useless."
If you want to inspect the whole army, we will call for it.
However, we will have to wait a few hours. ” This deputy general is also from a noble background, or a descendant, with a prominent family background, although Lu Xiangsheng is a dignified secretary of the military department and one of the cabinets, but in his eyes, he is just an outsider, and in the intricate forces in the capital, it is nothing at all, so he doesn't take Lu Xiangsheng very seriously, and his speech is slippery and frivolous.
"A few hours" Lu Xiangsheng was furious: "The military situation is like fire, if it is invaded by foreign invaders."
It will take a few hours for the army to gather, enough for the enemy to wipe us out. ” The lieutenant general disagreed, and said with a smile: "It's not that serious, it's not that serious."
Our Beijing camp exists in name only, every time a foreign enemy enters the prison, the matter of fighting has its own border army of Xuanfu and Shanhaiguan, and it is not our turn.
Besides, the court didn't expect us to come in handy.
To tell the truth, Jingying is just a kind of goods. ” Lu Xiangsheng was furious: "If the army can't fight, what else can it be used for?"
Look at the headquarters to beat the drum in person, if the three-way drum, if it is not enough, the military law will be engaged. ” When he had finished speaking, he took up the hammer and went to the front of the hall to strike at the man-high sheepskin drum.
"Ministry, don't" Several lieutenant generals were shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward to hug him: "Ministry, if you knock on this drum, it will be troublesome, after the three-way drum, I'm afraid that our battalion can't come and go two times out of ten stops, is it possible that you want to kill the other eight stoppers?"
"Yes, Ministry, the so-called law does not blame the public.
If the ministry insists on beating the drum, and there is no way to use military law against so many people, what prestige will there be, and how will the soldiers lead the troops if they are disrespectful in the future?"
Hearing the deputy general say this, Lu Xiangsheng was stunned.
Yes, is it possible that eighty percent of the soldiers will be cut down by military law at that time However, if military law is not established and prestige is not established, is this army still called a unit?
A trace of evil flickered on Lu Xiangsheng's face, and he snorted coldly: "Is there no rule for our army to speak of this drum, and the headquarters hall is really finalized."
Although the statement is not blamed on the public, it is still possible to kill a few officers.
I'm going to ask them in person how they led the troops."
At this time, a lieutenant secretly pulled his sleeve and kept giving him a look.
Lu Xiangsheng shouted impatiently: "What's wrong?"
The deputy general was a little embarrassed, and he didn't care about anything else, so he hurriedly said: "Ministry, please take a step to speak." ” Lu Xiangsheng sneered: "If you have something to say, just say it yourself, everything in the headquarters must be said to others." ” The lieutenant general blushed, and it took a long time to say: "Lord Ministry, the first-class officers of our army are not to be offended." ” "What do you say," Lu Xiangsheng asked with a frown.
The adjutant general whispered: "Anyone who can enter the Beijing camp as an officer, who becomes a general and colonel, who is not a noble, who is not a courtier's son, and who does not have a few people standing behind him."
Even if these nobles have declined, they still have some origins.
Our Beijing battalion is not only under the control of the commander, but also under the supervision of the lieutenant officer.
In wartime, there is also a commander-in-chief, and the imperial envoy or the military department must also send someone to be the governor.
There are too many ministries involved, and up to now, no one can say how many mothers-in-law we have, and all the soldiers in the army who can gain a foothold here have something to do with the dignitaries. ” "Besides, the imperial court set up this Beijing camp, spending millions of dollars every year, which is nothing more than giving everyone a bite to eat, to put it mildly, it is to raise the sons of the nobles.
Everyone just comes twice a month to get some food and go home.
When it is critical, just bring a weapon to the scene.
On weekdays, everyone has another livelihood, doing business, collecting rent, and running to your mansion to help. ” "If the general really wants to use military law to restrain everyone, not to mention how many big people he will offend.
It really made the soldiers unbearable, and those military ruffians were afraid that they would not even come to the monthly drills.
It's a big deal, if this Beijing guard doesn't do it, it's just fine. ” "They are not military households, nor are they the army of the Nine Border Town, and the military department does not take them seriously, and the state system is not up to them.
When the time comes, our camp will be cleaned, and it will not be easy for the ministry to report to the top, not because it is not good to look at the face, but I am afraid that the court will also be disappointed in the general. ” "Ah," Lu Xiangsheng was dumbfounded.
After thinking about it again, he couldn't help but stomp his feet angrily, then left angrily, returned to the court, and immediately wrote to Emperor Chongzhen, explaining the current situation in Beijing to Chongzhen in detail, and impeaching Li Wenzhao, the commander of the Beijing camp, for the crime of slowing down the army.

But the song folded up, but there was no information like a mud cow entering the sea, Lu Xiangsheng refused to stop there, and continued to be the emperor of Shangshu.
In the end, Chongzhen had to summon Lu Xiangsheng on the platform and patiently explain his difficulties to him, and the final content was that I knew about this situation when I was in the palace, but I couldn't offend almost all the civil and military forces of the court because of this, after all, this court still needs civil and military support, and things can't be too careful.
Emperor Chongzhen is a well-known manipulative character, at this time, one person who is manipulative advises another person not to be manipulative, which is indeed a bit weird, but it also shows that this thing really can't be done.
At the same time, the current Lu Xiangsheng is not as frizzy and brave as he was back then, and he also knows that without the support of the emperor, he can't do anything and can't do anything, especially Mao Wenlong, Yuan Chonghuan, the former governor of Shanxi, and the general army or something.
Lu Xiangsheng is upright and resolute, but not stupid.
Since the Beijing camp is not good, in the face of the tide of rogues, in the face of Beijing that is about to be besieged again, the Chongzhen Dynasty is in a panic, and Zhou Tingru, the first assistant who can only talk rhetoric, is even more at a loss, and now they really don't know how to deal with such a crisis.
Since the Beijing camp is unavailable, the guard is unavailable, and the 200,000 troops of the Liukou are surging like locusts, the land of Gyeonggi will be poisoned by the war again, and the people will have the pain of separation.
This proposal was resolutely opposed by Chongzhen at that time, the restoration of Liaodong was his dream thing, what Lu Hanqiang is doing now has given him hope, compared to Jiannu, Liukou is just a minutiae, Chongzhen definitely does not want to let the great cause of recovering Liao fail, so he categorically rejected Lu Xiangsheng's proposal.
However, Lu Xiangsheng's proposal gave Chongzhen an idea, that is, it was not possible to transfer Lu Hanqiang, but it was quite necessary to transfer Guan Ningjun, who was hiding behind him for nothing.
Now if Guan Ning Tieqi is not guarding against Lu Hanqiang, then it is simply useless, and it is a vain waste to waste the country's huge financial resources, in fact, Chongzhen is quite distressed about this resource.
So, Chongzhen put forward this idea, which was immediately approved by Zhou Tingru, who was already panicked, and now Zhou Tingru must seize it as long as he can find a rescuer, as long as he can defeat the approaching army of rogues, his position as the first assistant can be preserved.
The combat effectiveness of the Guanning Iron Cavalry is still obvious to all, although now I dare not say that it is the first strong army of the Ming Dynasty, but the second is definitely deserved, if the 100,000 Guanning Iron Cavalry is transferred back to aid Gyeonggi, then Gao Yingxiang's Liukou army will be wiped out in an instant, so as to stabilize the position of Zhou Tingru's first assistant, such a result is that it was rectified by Lu Hanqiang, and was brought back by Chongzhen, and Qian Qianyi, who returned to the court, and Min Hongxue, the secretary of the ministry, did not want to see, this first auxiliary position, without Wen Tiren, was favored by Min Hongxue, Give it a go, too.
Min Hongxue is not a good bird, this guy became a jinshi in the twenty-sixth year of Wanli and was named a political participant.
In the second year of the Apocalypse, he served as the governor of Yunnan, and in the seventh year of the Apocalypse, he was able to enter Beijing because of his meritorious service to the thieves.
Because of his fellow townsmen with Wen Tiren, he was promoted, and in March of the third year of Chongzhen, Wang Yongguang, the secretary of the ministry, was dismissed and replaced by Min Hongxue.
But in the last battle of Wen, this kid reacted quickly and hugged Chongzhen's thigh, but he was spared, but he hated Lu Hanqiang and Zhou Tingru to the core.
He secretly swore in his heart that he would always inherit Wen Tiren's unfinished business.
Therefore, several of them jointly wrote to Chongzhen, opposing the transfer of Guanning Iron Cavalry back for emergency, one of the reasons is that Lu Hanqiang has a heavy army, behind him, if there is no Guanning Iron Cavalry as a containment, the division of the feudal town will reappear in Daming, the situation will be unpredictable, and Liukou is just a disease of ringworm, come and go, as long as a place is snatched up, it will naturally go, as for where to go, that is a matter of later, who cares about him, so resolutely oppose the transfer back of Guanning Iron Cavalry.
At this time, the Lone Ministers Party stood up and loudly rebuked Min Hongxue and Qian Qianyi's ridiculous ideas of ignoring the overall situation, listed countless loyal and patriotic deeds of Lu Hanqiang, and guaranteed that Lu Hanqiang had absolutely no ambitions.
In this kind of controversy, Chongzhen finally discussed with Zhou Tingru and used a compromise method, that is, to transfer 150,000 Guanning iron cavalry back to 50,000 to exterminate the Liukou approaching Gyeonggi, while the remaining 100,000 continued to be stationed in the Liaoxi Corridor, nominally as Lu Hanqiang's reserve strength to recover Liaodong, so that both sides were happy.
Zu Dashou lamented for a long time when he received this holy decree, but when the holy decree came down, he could only pinch his nose and do it, but he still took out his old routine, and he could transfer troops and take the extraction fee.
As a result, Chongzhen happily agreed this time, because there was still a surplus in the bank loan last time, and now it is not bad for money, especially with his own master sitting in Shanhaiguan, are you afraid that your lion will open his mouth After Sun Chengzong's careful calculation, for Chongzhen at that time, it was not a problem at all to take out the silver that was so small as before.
The silver is allocated, and the grain is purchased directly from Huludao Port, so what do you say about Zu Dashou, there is no longer a reason to shirk sending troops.
There is no way, things have come to this point, Zu Dashou had to send Guan Ning, who claimed to be 50,000, in fact, more than 30,000 points, out of the customs and joined the military operation of the Central Plains to exterminate the Liukou, and as a result, Guan Ning's combat effectiveness was strong, and it was indeed not comparable to the Liukou, just after a few battles, he drove the Liukou back to Taihang Mountain.
After the battle was won, Zu Dashou asked Guan Ning to return to Liaoxi, and Emperor Chongzhen also thought that Guan Ning should return to Liaoxi and continue to complete his ulterior mission that is known to the world.
As a result, Lu Xiangsheng, who was hinted at by Lu Hanqiang, wrote to Chongzhen, saying that the current rogue has become a grasshopper after the autumn, and he can't dance for a few days, and it should be the time to do his best to completely encircle and suppress it. t1706231537:
