Chapter 421: People are slightly confused, the forbidden army goes out
On weekdays, Wang Tong's group is stable, and everything in Tianjin Wei is in an orderly and unfriendly manner. The reason is that people do things without empty talk and the rules are carefully and accurately.
However, with such a steady operation, people often don’t feel the role of operators and supervisors in it. I don’t know how many people sigh that Wang Tong is lucky and has achieved such a great contribution by mistake in Tianjin Wei. If I had done this, I might have done better.
But starting from the third day of the twelfth lunar month of the seventh year of Wanli, the Tianjin Weijin Yiwei Qianhu Office was running up and down. Everyone knew that the newly established Huwei Camp was going to Xuanzhen to perform troops, and began to mobilize military supplies and prepare for various items.
The army's actions involved a lot of things and were complicated and complicated. However, although the Jinyiwei Qianhu Office was busy, it was not at all chaotic and extremely orderly, and there was no evil of forced acquisition. The money was allocated. It seemed that anyone had any materials. It seemed that he had known what preparations should be made in that place. It seemed that he had prepared in the past.
Today, the Huwei Camp, where officials and people in Tianjin and Wei were even going to go to war, was not affected by the busy year of the twelfth lunar month, and the festive atmosphere became stronger and stronger.
The army was moving smoothly but did not disturb the people. The efficiency and quality shown by the salary of the Qianhu Office of Tianjin Weijinyiwei was surprised and amazed by many people who were paying attention. It was really not a lucky thing for this young Wang Tong to achieve such a result...
The weapons, armor and various equipment of Huwei Camp are only necessary to maintain daily training. This marching and martial arts exercise is already in wartime, and all the materials must be doubled.
However, it is very convenient for Huwei Camp. The Fire Organ Shop is located in Tianjin Wei. This Fire Organ Shop also has the function of creating other weapons. Wang Tong was the supervisor of this craftsman, and it is very convenient to arrange it.
It is no secret that the clear order to go north to train troops. Everyone knows that the craftsmen in the craftsmen are different from the past. First, they have enough food and are rewarded, and second, the foreman is watching them closely and cannot do business. However, with the first one, the second one doesn't matter to everyone.
As the twelfth lunar month entered, everyone was thinking about busy with the New Year and was not concerned about work. Wang Tong also made a special sum of money to let everyone concentrate on doing things.
What everyone knows is that those who have already left the quarantine area and work in the craftsman's workshop have also heard that translations are no longer enough now, and the price of recruitment in the capital has been four times that of usual. They are also responsible for food and accommodation, and rewards are given during the New Year. The translations stammer.
The people's understanding of this action was that the noble Lord Wang was going to the north to practice, with the target of the barbarians riding horses and shooting archery. Most of the Portuguese craftsmen who learned about this news were moved. When they were in their hometown, the enemy of Europe came from the Ottoman Empire in the south, and the enemy of the Ming Dynasty came from the north.
But opportunities are for those who are prepared. Some people continue to be busy after a few words of emotion. Some craftsmen, after careful consideration, asked to meet Wang Tong with the translation.
Wang Tong's emphasis on technology has made it convenient for the Han people and the French craftsmen who have been practicing Jinwei today, and he has the right to see Wang Tong at any time.
Explain the reason for meeting. This reason will be transmitted to Wang Tong as soon as possible. Wang Tong will decide to meet or not.
The craftsman of the aristocratic craftsman was soon approved. After half an hour of negotiation, he walked out of the Thousand Houses' Office with 600 taels of silver and was appointed as Qiao Da's deputy. Now the craftsmen and resources in the official and private offices were allocated by him. Sun Dahai and Zhang Shiqiang also received instructions, and whether they were employed or used money, they would do their best to satisfy them.
Needless to say, the nervousness and efficiency of preparation and various small episodes, the officialdom in the Beijing-Tianjin area and the merchants of Tianjin Wei became nervous because of the news that they had transferred the horse and Huwei Camp to Xuanzhen to perform martial arts.
What Wang Tong said is that fire refining can produce real gold, and this is true. As a military officer in the court, Ran Ran had to obey the orders of the march and mobilization of the upper peak. This is a good opportunity to train the team, and this is also true.
But everyone in the world thinks that the army, which is deeply favored by the emperor, should stay in Weixiangfu in Tianjin. If you go to Xuan Town, you will suffer a loss and be cheated.
Could this mobilization mean that Wang Qianhu's favor was weakened, so the palace allowed the Imperial Horse Supervision to arrange the Huwei Camp?
Everyone in Tianjin Wei, except for those officials who were greedy for money, understands that the prosperity of Tianjin Wei at this time is closely related to Wang Tong. If Wang Tong had something to do, then the prosperity of Tianjin Wei would be a dream.
Everyone was very nervous and made some preparations. If something went wrong, they could not throw the things they had earned hard this year here.
This nervousness and anxiety was not until the second order of praise in the capital came down, which made everyone feel at ease. The emperor issued an order to praise Wang Tong, a thousand households of Weijinyiwei in Tianjin, Wang Tong, an official of Weihuwei camp in Tianjin, and Cai Nan, a military supervisor, and others were loyal and diligent. They each had rewards. After the military service returned from the military service, they would give them a lot of gifts, which made people feel relieved.
But everyone was puzzled. If the emperor really had this intention, why bother with Huwei Camp? Xuanzhen was cold and cold. This winter was the day when the Tartars frequently invaded, so why did they suffer this crime in the past?
The Imperial Horse Prison originally had five battalions, the Warriors Battalion, the left and right guards, and the Dragon Xiang Left Guards now added the Tiger Power Camp of Jinwei today. The Imperial Horse Prison controls the largest and strongest armed forces in the imperial city palace. This is the vital root of the royal family. Although there are three eunuchs who have the seal, supervisor and the admiral, the mobilization of troops and horses must be done.
If anyone does not abide by this rule, he will act rashly. The military supervisor below can cut off the head of the person who gave the order with one knife, and then go to the top to explain this matter, and he will definitely have no merits or demerits.
In the seventh year of Wanli, there were many things happening. Tianjin Wei innovated everywhere and sent a lot of money to the palace. Zhang Ge Lao was in the world and urged the provinces to clear the land and arrears of the land. He also set rules for tax assessment of officials. The Imperial Horse Supervisor seemed to be not behind. He actually wanted the imperial guards to go to the border town to perform martial arts. The Warrior Camp, the four major camps, went out for a walk, and then went to Xuanfu, some went to Jifu, and some went directly to the Miyun Guard and Bohai Institute.
There is money in the palace now, and the Imperial Horse Prison is originally the steward who controls the money and food in the palace. The rotation and practice of several camps is actually not much.
Although the five battalions each had complaints and were cold and cold, I would not be willing to stay in such a prosperous and prosperous place as Jingfeng, and no one would be willing to suffer from the capital.
But the effect is indeed good. First of all, I was in the capital for a long time and went out to practice for one or two. The military generals and the soldiers were more lively and energetic, and the style was completely different. Empress Dowager Li and Emperor Wanli were naturally well-informed. When the Longxiang Left Guard, who went out, returned to Beijing, they sent people to watch. The rewards were said to be different from the past, and they were more strict and stern. If they could have this effect, the imperial guards were strong and the security of the Forbidden City would be a little more. The Empress Dowager and the Emperor were naturally happy.
Another unexpected thing was that several battalions of the Imperial Horse Supervisor went to Xuanfu, Jifeng and the garrisons in the north of the capital. The nine-sided areas were heavily armed. Every year, the imperial court transferred large amounts of silver prophecies to serve as money. The generals also had the privilege of trade with various Tartars divisions, with soldiers and money, and their independence became stronger and stronger. Moreover, people at that time had a view that the elite of the world were on the side and could not be taken to the other places. Over time, the arrogance and domineering spirit of the frontier generals was inevitable. Even the people who gave the side thought that the side played the most.
This time, the camp of the Imperial Horse Prison changed the situation. The Imperial Horse Prison battalions used young people who fled from the Great Wall as soldiers. They were not burdened by family members, and most of their thoughts were on practice. Moreover, the armor and equipment of the Imperial Army was naturally much better than others.
When the army and military exercises were performed, the soldiers and people who were feeding the border guards were shocked to see that the imperial guards in the capital were stronger than their own troops. Only then did the border general realize that they were arrogant and were observing the sky.
Of course, Ji Yan, guarded by Qi Jiguang, is different. The elites trained by famous generals in the world are at another level, but Qi Jiguang has always been loyal, so there is no need to say that.
No matter what, as the end of the year approaches, the heads of the imperial guards have returned one after another, and the filial piety that has been given to the capital and the palace on each side is much heavier than in previous years. The memorials have been submitted, and the words of the words have become much more respectful. Some of the entangled and quarrels in the past have also made much more concessions to the capital.
However, many of these changes will only be felt in February and March of the eighth year of Wanli. A few days ago, the left guard of Longxiang went out to move.
But the change has begun. The empress dowager, the emperor and the tycoons in the palace all saw it. The six ministers of the cabinet also understood that Chu Zhaoren, who made this suggestion, suddenly became different from the past.
Originally, the ship was sunk by Wang Tong on the Tianjin Wei Canal. Even if Chu Zhaoren was promoted to the Imperial Horse Prison, he was regarded as a joke by everyone. The plan of martial arts was the same, and everyone had different opinions. He could do things, do useful things, and was quite effective. This was a great talent.
After being favored by everyone, it became much more convenient for his actions. Moreover, the eunuch Lin Shulu, who has always been a strong supervisor, also supported Chu Zhaoren's arrangements, which also made him much smoother in his implementation.
The left guard of Longxiang had just returned to the capital. In addition to the military force of the left guard who had already been decided by the Imperial Horse Supervisor Chu Zhaoren also submitted a memorial to ask Huwei Camp to go to Xuanfu.
No one is a fool, and the palace people are even more so. Chu Zhaoren came to Cining Palace to report, and when the cause and effect were combined, no one could understand, Empress Dowager Cisheng Li sneered:
"Chu Zhaoren, after spending such a big Zhou Zhang, just to let Wang Tong's child suffer in the north. Do you really think that the Ai family can't understand it?"
Zhang Jing, who was standing beside him, sneered a little. Chu Zhaoren deserved it, but he didn't expect that the eunuch Lin, the supervisor of the Imperial Horse Supervision, said: "Empress Dowager, I have something to report!"
