Imperial Guards, Border Guards?

Why have you never heard of the numbers of these two armies?

When the civil and military officials in Yangzhou heard this, they were confused at first, and then someone realized that this must be the newly formed army of Princess Kunxing.

The most important thing is that if this princess Kunxing, who is in charge of the country, has tens of thousands of strong troops in his hands, then things will be different.

Now is not the early years of Chongzhen, but the real end of the dynasty. The officials present know how important it is to control a powerful army in such a chaotic era.

So, for a moment, Wei Yinwen, Ying Tingji, Ren Yumin and others all became strange. Shi Kefa said, "How can a woman supervise the country? Yu Li is not in line.

Huang Degong frowned and his face turned black after hearing this.

He used to think that although Shi Kefa, the old master, was a gentleman, who was quite good compared to other civil officials in the court.

At this moment, I felt that this person was so ignorant.

He actually said in front of so many people that the princess was in charge of the country and was not in harmony with the princess. Isn’t this going to destroy the princess’s platform?

He was about to confront Shi Kefa, but Shi Kefa asked again: "What about the weird bird that can talk? Could it be that there is a demon next to the princess?"

"Don't let your mother goofy shit!" Huang Degong finally couldn't help it, pointed at Shi Kefa's nose and cursed, "Where are the demons around the country? That is the drone brought by the country's great powers from later generations!"

As he said that, when Huang Degong saw Shi Kefa's face was confused, he knew that Shi Kefa did not understand the meaning of "later generations" and "drone". Huang Degong snorted: "You don't understand even if you say it, so you don't bother with you!

'

Among the several staff members behind Shi Kefa, some showed anger and said, "Vulgar martial artist! How can you be so rude to Shi?!"

Huang Degong glanced at the man and said nothing at all - he was too lazy to pay attention to a pair of literati who didn't even have an official position.

This made Shi Kefa's several aides even more angry.

However, Liu Zhaoji, Ma Yingkui and other generals felt relieved when they saw this scene. Didn’t they look down on us generals? How do they feel when they are looked down on by a general?

Just as the atmosphere at the city gate became worse and worse, a fast horse rushed over and shouted, "The imperial guards of the country have arrived five miles away!"

Hearing this, Wei Yinwen said: "This place is only one mile away from Yangzhou City. Will we welcome the Supervisor here to be unqualified? In my opinion, it would be better to have at least three miles away from the city."

As soon as these words came out, many civil and military officials nodded.

Obviously, most of the officials present had already recognized Princess Kunxing's regent in their hearts.

Shi Kefa frowned and said, "Princess, it's a great gift for us to go out of the city to welcome him one mile. How can we still need to go out of the city three miles?'

On the other hand, Chen Xianchi, who turned into a dog-headed military advisor, approached Huang Degong and said, "Brother, that guard commander is right. We'd better go to a place three miles away from the city to welcome the supervisor.

Huang Degong nodded, "Just do it like this--Isn't this old boy Shi Kefa said that it's not possible? I have to do it like this!"

Immediately, Huang Degong led his generals and the captive Kong Youde and Zhang Cunren to walk south.

Wei Yinwen also brought most of the officials in Yangzhou City to follow.

In the end, Shi Kefa was left with only a few staff members, as well as a handful of officials such as He Gang and Chen Yujie.

And speaking of this, He Gang is also a staff member of Shi Kefa.

Shi Kefa went to Jiangbei as the governor, and there were as many as a dozen staff members under his command, and now there are still people working in the city.

He Gang came to Shi Kefa and advised: "The supervisor, the supervisor, brought a large army, and wiped out tens of thousands of Qing troops. The army is majestic, so the supervisor should not touch his eyebrows."

Shi Kefa looked at He Gang unhappily, "Why do you also call him a ruling country? It is important to know that this is the Ming Dynasty, not the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms--even if she controls a large army, she should not be a woman in charge of the country, let alone

It's time to covet the throne!'

He Gang was stunned when he heard this and then fell completely silent.

He felt that as an aide, he had already tried his best, but this Supervisor Shi really couldn't help him.

Shi Kefa and others waited on the spot for half an hour before seeing Zhu Shini's imperial guards, and at the same time they also saw the accompanying Imperial Guards' Second Town.

Although Shi Kefa was righteous before, he was nervous when he saw the imperial guards and soldiers with bright armor and swords and guns in his hands.

Until Zhu Nianni came to the front of him, he had not reacted. He subconsciously knelt down with everyone and shouted: "See Qiansui of the Supervisor!"

Only after he said this did he realize that he also called Zhu Nianni the governor. He was immediately embarrassed and annoyed, and his old face flushed.

He thought Zhu Nian would be the first to ask him to get up and answer, but he heard a very crisp, pleasant and majestic girl voice, saying: "Is the Yangzhou magistrate Ren Yumin here?"

"I'm here."

Ren Yumin stood up and left the line, and knelt down again.

In the face of the great military power of this princess of the regent, he could not have any strange thoughts or distracting thoughts, let alone the princess has many mysterious and strange features, which are awesome.

"Can the people in the city be safe?" Zhu Nianni asked.

"This..." Ren Yumin hesitated and said, "It's considered safe."

"What does it mean to be safe?" Zhu Nianni revealed a little displeasure in her tone, "The Qing emperors besieged the city, and the people will be anxious. As the prefect of Yangzhou, you learned that our palace had annihilated the Qing emperors and relieved the dangers of Yangzhou. Could it be that

Haven’t you sent someone to issue an announcement for peace?!”

Although Ren Yumin didn't even see Zhu Nian's face from beginning to end, he could not control his nervousness when he heard this. He was afraid and hurriedly kowtowed and said in a trembling voice: "I dereliction of duty!"

Other Yangzhou officials around were also nervous at this time

These people were thinking that this princess in charge of the country was afraid that he would use Ren Yumin to establish authority. Ren Yumin was the prefect of Yangzhou. He had a great official position, but it was not very big, and he was just right to establish authority.

Then I couldn't help but think that this mysterious and strange princess of the state would punish Ren Yumin.

It’s not like letting the strange bird eat Ren Yumin?

While many people were thinking about it, Ren Yumin herself was sweating all over her face, she heard Zhu Nian say, "Since I know I have negligent duties, why are you going to work here? Why don't you go into the city first and have someone post a notice to calm the people's hearts?!"

The rest were surprised when they heard this.

Ren Yumin was as if he had been amnesty and hurriedly said, "I'll go now!"

After saying that, he hurriedly kowtowed to Zhu Nianni, and then hurried into the city with several officials.

Seeing that Zhu Nianni did not establish her authority with Ren Yumin, many people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

They thought this was a good thing that Zhu Nian was so generous.

Shi Kefa's view of Zhu Nian also changed slightly - it is rare for the princess to put the people first.

‘But no matter how rare it is, it should not be governed by a woman.

When Shi Kefa thought so, Zhu Nianni spoke again.

"The generals guarding Yangzhou City this time are here?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhaoji, Shi Dewei, Ma Yingkui, He Gang and others immediately stepped out excitedly and said in unison: "The last one is here!"

The few people didn't dare to look up at Zhu Neng's, but they heard Zhu Neng's voice say in a friendly tone: "If this time hadn't been the palace and Jingnanbo brought troops to support, Yangzhou would be a dangerous place without help.

Some of you who can stay in danger and do your duty to the Ming Dynasty is truly valuable when the country is in danger. Let me tell you, what are your names?’

Hearing Zhu Nian's words, Liu Zhaoji felt that his heart, which was hard as hard as iron, suddenly broke his defense.

I couldn't help but burst into tears. I remembered all the grievances I had in the past as a young general, and when I was understood and valued by the princess of the regent, I couldn't help but swallow: "I haven't brought Yangzhou General Liu Zhaoji!"

"The last general Shi Shi's deputy general Shi Dewei!"

"The last general and general Ma Yingkui!"

"The last general is brave and loyal to the camp leader He Gang!"

"The last general leader of the people, Fan Gang...

As several generals defending the city signed up one after another, they were even more swallowed and even cried, the civil servants around them couldn't help but feel silent when they saw it.

Some people thought to themselves: Princess, I have also defended the city, and I have made contributions, how can I put us behind these martial artists?

But I didn't expect that when Liu Zhaoji and others signed up, Zhu Nian still didn't mention them, but nodded slightly and said, "I will remember your contributions, but guarding the city is not only your contribution, but also many ordinary soldiers.

Credit.

After entering the city this time, you should do your best to clarify the merits of the soldiers guarding the city. Those who are dead and injured will be given some pensions.

From the generals to the small soldiers, there will never be a shortage of rewards for the imperial court!

In addition, you must give a word to the soldiers guarding the city for this palace--this palace will never let the soldiers shed blood and cry for the Ming Dynasty!’

As soon as these words came out, all the soldiers around, including Huang Degong's troops, could no longer hold back and shouted in unison, "Thank you, the governor!"

"Long live the Ming Dynasty!"

"Long live the regent!"

Finally, even the soldiers who did not hear Zhu Nian's words in the distance shouted, their voices shook the earth.

For a moment, the civil officials such as Shi Kefa, Wei Yinwen were next to him, and the literati couldn't help but look pale.
