Chapter 245 Sichuan soldiers
"This is a humble job." Chen Wuke lowered his head and said in a muffled voice. He really didn't know this time. He had just sent the letter of help last night, and reinforcements arrived today. What is the efficiency of the Ming Dynasty court?
Time has become so high? If it is really so fast, the situation in the world will not be in chaos. Is it a coincidence or is there a fraud?
Thinking of this, Chen Wuke raised his head and looked at Xu Shirou. It happened that Xu Shirou also stared at him with bright eyes. The two of them collided in the air, and Chen Wuke quickly lowered his head again without saying a word.
"I don't know?" Xu Shirou snorted coldly, with a calm face and was about to continue scolding. At this moment, the old servant's voice came from outside the door: "Master, Tongzhi Lord Ni, Tongzhi Lord Jian, with a soldier outside the door.
ask to see."
‘Why are they here?’ Xu Shirou was confused, but she had to see her, so she ordered the old servant: “Go and invite them in.”
"Yes." The old servant stepped down.
Not long after, Ni Yuangong walked in with anger, looked at the layout of the hall with big eyes, and walked straight to a chair next to Xu Shirou. He turned his body and sat down. At the same time, he bowed to Xu Shirou on the side.
It's considered a gift.
On the contrary, Jian Qinwen, who followed, respectfully bowed to Xu Shirou, and a young man next to him was so scared that he knelt on the ground and did not dare to speak.
"It's a rebellion, it's a rebellion. The Sichuan army outside the city is going to enter the city? It's simply delusional. They don't look at their identity. The group of Qiu Ba really takes it seriously." Before Xu Shirou could speak, Ni Yuangong
But he had already started cursing.
Xu Shirou frowned slightly, and she felt a little dissatisfied with Ni Yuangong, but Ni Yuangong was a co-education, and the level of Xu Shirou was close to that level. What's more important is that Ni Yuangong was born in Zhejiang and was a native of Donglin.
Although Chongzhen has also reacted a little in recent years, he does not trust the Donglin Party unconditionally, and the Donglin Party members are not as "the dynasty as the early years of Chongzhen", such a huge party is still not Xu Shirou, who was born in Guangzhou.
What he could afford was that, in the face of Ni Yuangong's rudeness, Xu Shirou could only bear it.
"The reinforcements outside the city are the Sichuan Army?" Ignoring Ni Yuangong's rudeness, he could only pay attention to what he said, and immediately heard the key point.
"That is, the commander of the Sichuan Army was Deng Yan, the general officer, who was ordered to rush to help Hebei and encircle and suppress the rebels." Ni Yuangong said.
"Do you have any documents?" Xu Shirou has been sitting in the seat of prefect for several years, so he naturally has two brushes and suddenly asked the key points.
"I forgot this," Ni Yuangong's face flashed, and then he returned to his angry look. Obviously, his face was as good as a city wall. He continued: "But it doesn't matter, that soldier was sent by the Sichuan Army to contact us.
You can ask him for details.”
Xu Shirou naturally would not have missed him because of this little thing. She turned around and asked the little pawn who was kneeling on the ground, saying, "You said the court ordered you to wait for the north to the Central Plains, do you have any certificate?"
"Of course there are villains." Although the young man knelt on the ground when he entered the door, his attitude was extremely sincere. He thought he was a little man. He had never seen so many high-ranking officials. He was nervous. Unexpectedly, this man did not stumble at all when he spoke.
Seeing that his attitude was very calm, Xu Shirou took a few more glances, but didn't say anything.
As the young man said, he took out the Ministry of War's transfer order from his arms and raised his hands above his head. Someone took the transfer order and sent it to Xu Shirou's hands.
Xu Shirou took the order of transfer, carefully checked one, and after confirming that the order of transfer was correct, he handed it to Ni Yuangong beside him. He watched Ni Yuangong take it over and looked over. Xu Shirou felt her temples jump twice.
After suppressing his anger, Xu Shirou continued to ask the young master: "General Deng wants to go to the city to rest?"
"That is, our army went south in Zunhua and first fought with the Shandong bandit Kong Youde. After Kong Youde was defeated, he was recruited by the court and surrounded and suppressed the five battalions of bandits including Lao Hui and Hui. Five months ago, he fought for more than 5,000 miles. Three days ago,
The bandit army came from Tang County east of Nanyang, passed Xinye and entered Huguang.
Our army arrived in Xinye, and was already exhausted and exhausted. The soldiers left their hometown for a long time and were homesick. In order to prevent being taken advantage of by the thief army, Deng Shuai went north to Nanyang. Unexpectedly, he happened to lift the siege of Nanyang. Please ask the prefect to protect the magistrate.
The adults allow our army to go to the city to rest. I promise that our army will definitely strictly abide by military discipline and will never cause trouble to the people. I also ask the adults to do it."
"No." Xu Shirou was about to speak, but Ni Yuangong blocked his words back into his stomach with just one sentence.
Then Ni Yuangong stood up, pointed at the pawn's nose and cursed: "Do you promise? Who do you think you are? What if the Sichuan Army entering the city really robbed the people and caused trouble, how many heads do you have enough to cut them?
Can your head save the losses of the people of Nanyang?"
Ni Yuangong spoke to the people and kept silent, and directly placed himself at the commanding heights of morality, looking down at the Sichuan Army coming from afar with a downward attitude, his words were full of disdain.
In fact, preventing foreign troops from entering the city is an unwritten rule by the Ming Dynasty. The specific reason for the formation is no longer verified, but there are reasons for such an unwritten rule at the beginning.
First, the military system of the Ming Dynasty started with the establishment of the garrison system by Emperor Hongwu Zhu Yuanzhang. Military households, craftsmen, medical households, monk households, station households, etc. It can be said that a person will be from birth to death, and in your descendants.
The regulations are clearly stated. Military households usually live in the acropolis and have almost no intersection with other civilians, which creates an extremely serious problem, that is, soldiers and other people are like two groups that do not want to do.
On weekdays, can the two groups of people who play with their own feelings of closeness? In addition, the military households are extremely difficult and often cannot even receive military pay. The whole family is hungry and serves in the country for military service, which causes
The Ming army had extremely poor military disciplines. They always robbed them if they could, and they could rob them if they could. Anyway, nothing would happen.
Therefore, every time a bandit suppression or a soldier is suppressed, the officers and soldiers are not even as good as bandits. When they meet bandits, they may still be able to save their lives. When they meet soldiers, they can only prepare their funeral as soon as possible! As the people say, bandits are defeated.
Like a comb, a soldier passes like a castor, and an official passes like a shaved. When you meet a bandit, you can at least sue the official, but when you meet a soldier, there is no place to sue the official.
Therefore, some conscientious officials gradually stopped letting their troops enter the city, which was to prevent the troops from burning, killing and looting in the city and protecting the people in the city.
However, even if Ni Yuangong's words really meant to protect the people, their approach was obviously inappropriate.
The young man was scolded and still insisted: "The thief army outside the city is still there, but the lord refuses to let me enter the city to assist in defense. Is this going to force our army to fight the thief to death, so that he can reap the benefits of the fisherman?"
Hearing this, Ni Yuangong was even more angry and cursed. Although he did think so in his heart, he was pointed out by a soldier, where did he put his face? He angrily scolded: "What are you? You dare to be slandering me."
I guess? Try someone, pull me down and hit the fifty big boards, and hit me the real one.”
Fifty boards, there is still a real fight. If this fight is really done, how can this soldier have a life? What did Deng Qi think if the person who killed Deng Qi?
Fortunately, these Sichuan soldiers arrived today and frightened the thieves outside the city, otherwise the Nanyang City would have been lost. Now the thieves are eyeing outside the city and may attack at any time. Now the enemy is in front of you, and you cannot give reinforcements to you.
Offended.
Seeing five or six yamen runners rushing in outside the hall, pressing the soldier to go out, Xu Shirou hurriedly stopped him and said, "What are you doing in? Why don't you go out quickly?" After saying that, he turned around and comforted the angry Ni Yuangong.
: "Mr. Ni, the enemy is facing a great enemy, and you still need these warriors. Never offend these people. Be patient and be patient."
Ni Yuangong actually regretted it after saying it. Xu Shirou could know the situation, so Ni Yuangong was naturally not a fool. Now the situation is in crisis, and it is not easy to offend Deng Yan for the time being. Besides, there is still a future.
After understanding these things, Ni Yuangong could only suppress his anger, and took advantage of the steps given by Xu Shirou, and snorted coldly and followed the situation.
Seeing that the young man could not do anything about entering the city, he retreated and proposed: "Since my elders are afraid that our army will harm one side, our army will not enter the city, but I hope that my elders can give us some food and grass so that we can continue to go south as well
