Renzi Scroll, Section 45: The Three Pro-Army Army (2)
After playing with it for a while, Miao Zhuang reluctantly inserted the blunderbuss back into the holster. He looked around and noticed that the people from the Four Guards Camp and the Warriors Camp on both sides began to gather here. He made him feel a little bit.
Displeased.
The relationship between the three armies, the Standard Guards, the Fourth Guards Camp, and the Warriors Camp, is not harmonious.
Just like today, in Miao Zhuang's view, these people looked too ugly. Even if his flag-bearer's guard performed slightly better, they wanted to steal the limelight.
Of course, when the Four Guards Camp and the Warriors Camp perform tomorrow or tomorrow, I will not hesitate to add to the trouble.
Compared with the relative independence of the Banner Guards, the relationship between the Four Guards Battalion and the Warriors Battalion is much closer. Because the Four Guards Battalion and the Warriors Battalion were originally drawn from the elite of the three major battalions of the Beijing Camp, or it can be said that the Four Guards Battalion
The old camp of the Yingying Camp and the Warrior Camp, the main camp is the three major camps of the Beijing Camp.
Although time has passed, the three major battalions of the Beijing Camp, the Fourth Guards Camp, and the Warriors Camp have long been no longer directly affiliated, but this connection cannot be shaken off. In fact, after the Tianping period, the Fourth Guards Camp and the Warriors Camp
They no longer draw troops from the three major battalions of the Beijing Camp to replenish their strength. Instead, like the three major battalions of the Beijing Camp, they are directly drawn from the garrison posts in the capital and even Northern Zhili.
However, after the 30th year of Yuanxi, this situation changed somewhat. In the 30th, 36th, and 41st years of Yuanxi, the Four Guards Camp and the Warriors Camp transferred some parts from the Beijing Camp in three rounds.
The elite backbone went to the Four Guards Camp and the Warriors Camp. Therefore, the relationship between the Four Guards Camp and the Warriors Camp and the Beijing Camp still has a complicated and deep origin.
However, this relationship was completely severed after Emperor Yonglong came to the throne. At the beginning of his accession to the throne, the emperor and the Ministry of War had officially issued a decree to clarify the sources of soldiers for the Four Guards Battalion and the Warrior Battalion. Starting from the first year of Yonglong, the Four Guards Battalion
The battalion and the warrior battalion will no longer recruit soldiers from the Beijing camp. The four-guard battalion will all be selected from the three guards of Tianjin and the fifth guard of Xingzhou. The warrior battalion will all be selected from the three guards of Zhuolu and the fifth guard of Yingzhou. They will be selected every three years.
Compared with the Four Guards Camp and the Warriors Camp, the Standard Guards are different. In fact, this can be seen from their names. They are battalions, while the Standard Guards are guards.
The flag-hand guard is actually inherited from the former Ming Dynasty. It is the same as the Jinyiwei of the former Ming Dynasty. However, after the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, the responsibilities of the flag-hand guard and the Jinyiwei have undergone some changes. The flag-hand guard still uses guards, while the Jinyiwei has become the Long Jinwei.
, the Banner Guards are still mainly pro-military guards in the forbidden area, while the Jinyiwei (Long Jinwei) has been completely transformed into a detective agency, but its core has not changed. They are all loyal to the emperor rather than the cabinet and the Fifth Army Governor's Office.
Because of this relationship, the Banner Guards and the Long Jinwei have a deeper relationship, while the Fourth Guards Battalion has a closer relationship with the Warrior Battalion and even the three major camps of the Beijing Camp. This has also become a different origin of the several major armed security forces in the capital city.
The other armed security force in the capital city, the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division and the Patrol Battalion, are somewhere in between the two.
Most of the soldiers of Gein's Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division come from the Beijing Camp, while the Patrol Battalion is more like a peripheral organization of Long Jinwei. However, in terms of business, they are only under the jurisdiction of the City Patrol Procuratorate under the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and have a lighter military flavor.
, the nature of public security is stronger.
Noticing that the emperor was urging his horse to move forward, he quickly inserted his short blunderbuss into the holster and galvanized his horse to follow closely.
The surrounding soldiers also formed a flying goose posture and followed behind them calmly.
As a senior military officer, in addition to the requirements for morale and combat power, it also requires loyalty and quick response. Among the 1,500 people, the standard guard and the 500 cavalry are all one person and two horses. If you leave the capital, you need to prepare an additional one.
A pack horse is a pack horse, and the infantry also has a pack horse battalion specially responsible for providing logistical support, in order to be able to respond to combat at any time.
The other two warrior battalions and the fourth guard battalion of the Shangsanqinjun are in similar situations, but they are slightly larger than the banner guard, with about 1,800 people, while the cavalry is even smaller, with only 300 people.
, the other 1,500 people are infantry.
Emperor Yonglong watched with great interest the flag bearer guards and the sergeants galloping forward in front of him. The rabbit was rising and the falcon was falling, which aroused his great interest. He couldn't help but gallop forward, but the speed was much slower.
The surrounding ministers all asked the emperor to slow down and be sure not to fall off his horse, which would cause serious disaster.
Emperor Yonglong also knew that his body was not as good as before, and his speed was actually very slow. Moreover, the strong horse under his crotch was also an old horse that he had ridden for many years. Even if he encountered any accidents, he would not be frightened. Therefore, this trip was a little slow.
After sweating for a while, I finally succeeded in shooting a hare, so I was done.
Seeing the emperor slowing down his horse, Miao Zhuang gently reined in his horse and followed closely beside the emperor. At the same time, he also signaled to the people behind him. The other riders also crowded up and surrounded the emperor.
It not only maintains a certain speed, but also avoids the crowds from the Warrior Battalion and the Four Guards Battalion squeezing in from both sides. Today is the performance time of the Flag Bearer Guards, and it is not their turn to present treasures.
Gu/span> The clothing and armor on both sides were obviously different from those of the Banner Guards. The more than ten knights in ocher-red clothing also noticed this. The knights on the right were all in black clothes and black armor. They were from the Fourth Guards Camp.
, and on the other side were all indigo. They were from the warrior camp. Seeing that they had lost their chance, they all slowed down.
The two knights exchanged glances with disdain on their faces, and the burly man with a copper helmet and black robe snorted, "The Miao guy really kept us on guard. It's just a show, no more."
If we get too close, they really treat us as thieves and are on guard."
"Haha, who told you to bring a black tiger to dig out someone's heart when you came? You almost made me look embarrassed." Another tiger-eyed man in an indigo blouse half-slanted around his body sneered.
"Hmph, if he didn't deliberately come to cause trouble for us, how could I feel sorry for him? After all, I think their flag-bearer guards need to be independent and different..." The burly man curled his lips, "
There's no point in playing behind-the-scenes tricks. It's just about inviting favors and pleasing the emperor. Whether you can fight or not, you have to compete on the battlefield. It's a pity that when will we guards who join the direct army get the chance to fight?"
"Why, you really want to go into battle, but you haven't learned enough lessons from the defeat of Santun Camp last year?" The tiger-eyed man shook his head: "To be honest, I really don't want to encounter that kind of thing. Look,
Seeing how many wives were scattered and families were broken up, the emperor was so angry that he almost demolished the three major camps in Beijing. How many of our acquaintances are there in the third major camps in Beijing now?"
The burly man also had a somewhat sentimental look on his face.
The Battle of Santun Camp left the entire Jingying Camp exhausted, and even the generals of the Four Guards Camp and the Warriors Camp who were originally from the Jingying Camp felt disgraced, as well as the Long Jinwei and the Banner Guards.
Even the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division looked down upon them, which was the most intolerable thing for them.
The Shangsanqin army was originally in a competitive situation with each other. The standard-bearing guards, the four-guard battalion, and the warrior battalion were all indistinguishable. However, after the battle of the three camps, the emperor's attitude towards his four-guard battalion and Liao Junxiong's warrior battalion was a little subtle.
Although outsiders couldn't see anything, as the commander of the Fourth Guards Battalion, Du Keli could still detect some subtle changes.
For example, Miao Zhuang's visits to him were obviously more frequent, but his attitude towards himself and Liao Junxiong was not as enthusiastic as before, and sometimes his and Liao Junxiong's suggestions were discounted.
Another time when the emperor was inspecting the warrior camp, he was very dissatisfied with the military discipline of the warrior camp and became furious. Liao Junxiong wrote a letter asking for punishment himself, otherwise the censors from the Metropolitan Procuratorate would come.
In the past, the emperor would have scolded him, but that time the emperor not only used the defeat of the Santun Camp as an example to denounce the Shangsanqinjun, but also named the relevant responsible persons to be punished. Liao Junxiong was so frightened that he knelt down outside the palace gate.
After half a day, the fine for three months was finally settled.
Although things like fines are just a trivial matter, and no one will live on that little salary, it is a trend, and it is even a warning to the generals, which means that the emperor's
His attitude has changed. If he doesn't keep alert, he may be dismissed from his post or even imprisoned next time.
"Old Liao, do you think what Miao Zhuang said before was a deliberate attempt to put eye drops on us in front of Xia Bingzhong, or is he really aware of something going on here?"
Du Keli, a burly man, had a somewhat searching look in his eyes.
The day before yesterday, Miao Zhuang said that an acquaintance with Long Jinwei said that after the defeat of the Three Tun Camps, the Beijing Camp was being cleaned up, and it was found that there were many followers of the White Lotus Sect in the Three Camps, and many believers had even been members of the religion for more than ten or twenty years.
Yes, it is said that most of the soldiers of the Fourth Guards Battalion and the Warriors Battalion came from the three major battalions of the Beijing Camp. It is not ruled out that the Fourth Guards Battalion and the Warriors Battalion may also be infiltrated. In particular, the Fourth Guards Battalion has drawn the most sergeants from the old Shenji Battalion over the years.
Most of the soldiers of the old Shenji Battalion came from the Dongsheng Zuowei, Xingzhou Youtun Guard, Shanhaiwei, Funing Guard, Zhongyi Zhongwei and other first-line guards. The White Lotus Sect activities are the most rampant in the areas where these guard posts are located, so the four guards
The camp needs to be cleaned up and reorganized most.
This angered Du Keli at the time.
He felt that this was a deliberate frame-up by Miao Zhuang, especially when he put eye drops on himself in front of Xia Bingzhong, the most trusted eunuch of the emperor and the nominal leader of the Third Family Army. Once it reached the ears of the emperor, he was afraid that the emperor would treat his
The attitude was even worse than when Liao Junxiong was involved in the incident last year. After all, Liao Junxiong only had poor military discipline at that time. But now if there are rumors that the White Lotus Sect has infiltrated the Fourth Guard Camp, then things will be in trouble.
The tiger-eyed man Liao Junxiong was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that the other party was still thinking about this matter at this time. He glanced at the other party subconsciously and felt nervous: "Old Du, have you discovered some clues? This kind of thing
This is no joke, Miao Zhuang certainly has bad intentions, but if there is really any clue, you can deal with it yourself as soon as possible!"
