Chapter 933: The Incident Continues?
The situation is very good.
So far, Eunuch Wei has received compensation from ten honorary officials including the Ancheng Bo Zhang Guocai family.
This fully shows that there are still many enlightened people among the noble class of Nandu, and they are not just opposing the powerful people who are enemies of Eunuch Wei.
It also fully demonstrates that Eunuch Wei's sincerity and kindness have been recognized by most enlightened people. The two sides had a frank exchange after the misunderstanding, and they had completely opened up their hearts.
To put it in folk words, this is called not knowing each other without fighting.
"Let it pass by what is past, and if we look at what is future, we can go further by looking forward!"
Eunuch Wei likes to speak in particular. After he made a passionate speech as usual, he personally sent the envoys from various families to the camp.
There were laughter and witty words all the way, which made everyone laugh, and truly abandoned past grudges and worked together.
After the envoys from the camp came out, the wind blew, and they felt chill all over. Their eyes told each other: Wei Yi not only got the advantage but also acted well, but was a chattering man. God knew that he had so much nonsense. He thought that his talk was a mess, and that he could erase the fact that he blackmailed the Lords! Did he think that the Lords could accept this matter and swallow his anger!
"What we said just now is okay? Do you have... leadership temperament?"
On the way back, Eunuch Wei asked Song Sibao, who was following him happily, and he was very concerned about this issue.
He often thinks about what occasions, what expressions to use, and what actions to use.
Sometimes in order to make himself perform better, he even often performs in front of the mirror. Those who don’t know think he is crazy.
It is really hard for my father-in-law to work hard. Alas, it is not easy to serve the country and the people, and my heart is about to be broken.
Song Sibao's answer was very satisfied with Eunuch Wei, so he liked to ask Sibao because the answers to Sibao are the most standard in each time.
Other people's answers either make their father-in-law dissatisfied, or they are just arbitrary and unremarkable.
Over time, my father-in-law didn't like to ask others.
.....
Based on the books, the compensation from these ten companies has been able to balance the public's public balance.
But there is no big profit yet, and it is still one hundred thousand taels away from the small target in the first quarter of the 41st year of Wanli.
In order to achieve this goal as soon as possible, my father-in-law ordered the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty to conduct a night drill in the wetland on the east side of Shangfang Bridge.
The roaring guns and cannons lasted for half an hour.
The drill informed the Shenji and the Second Police Battalion stationed outside Shangfang Bridge in advance to show that the drill was not deliberately targeting the Nandu City, nor was it targeting the Shenji and the Second Police Battalion. It was just a practical combat drill organized by the Ming Dynasty Imperial Army under the command of the Central Officer of the Jiangnan Guard.
As the eunuch of the Ming Dynasty Imperial Army, strengthening the army is the mission and responsibility that Eunuch Wei always cared about.
If you don’t have time to practice it, you can’t be an enemy.
Starting from practical combat needs and training troops strictly from difficulties is the fundamental way to improve the level of practical combat in the Imperial Army.
"The importance of night exercises is the key exercise that concerns whether the entire army can quickly fight the enemy. As the emperor's personal army, you must always prepare for wars and even be prepared for tough battles!"
Before the drill, my father-in-law delivered a speech. With his order, the special exercise of Jinling, which had been interrupted for several days, began again.
The exercise unit consists of a unit of the personal guard camp, the left battalion of the infantry and the cavalry team.
After the exercise, Cao Wenyao, who was in charge of the drill command, said when Eunuch Wei inquired about the results of the exercise: "This night's live-fire tactical test basically hit the gun, hit all the targets, hit all the shooting methods, and hit all the battalions and marks. Through three tactics of formation, assault and interspersion, the actual combat capability of the Ming Dynasty's Imperial Army at night was effectively tested."
Cao Wenyao said even more proudly: "If the imperial army is pulled to Liaodong and Zhushi in the west, it will definitely make the northern barbarians and Jiannu scared him."
After hearing the report, Eunuch Wei was very happy and cordially summoned the Imperial Army soldiers who participated in the drill, each of whom gave him a piece of pork and five taels of silver.
The Shenji and the Second Police Battalion stationed on Shangfangmen were extremely nervous. The riverside on the bridge was full of soldiers wearing torches searching, fearing that a few more eunuchs of Wei's soldiers would swim over.
Eunuch Wei’s people said that they had disappeared several soldiers, but this matter has not been found out yet. Who knows whether Eunuch Wei will re-report the old matter and take it out and frame it?
.....
On the way back to the camp, Eunuch Chen Fu from the inner garrison hall came again.
Eunuch Chen brought bad news to Eunuch Wei. Eunuch Liu had agreed to the request of Duke Wei and issued a defense seal. In the southern capital, Shenji, police officers and the third battalion of Shenwu allocated more than 4,000 elite troops to urgently increase the defense of Shangfangmen to ensure that the city gate is not lost.
In this way, with the Shenji who was originally stationed outside Shangfangmen, more than 3,000 soldiers were arrested, and the number of guards in Shangfangmen increased to 7,000.
Eunuch Chen also stated that the inner garrison hall could not accept the destruction of the Nanjing city walls and the troops under the Jiangnan guards fought with the troops in the Nandu. If necessary, Eunuch Liu would deprive the command of the Jiangnan guards' central officials in the name of the Nanjing guards.
In terms of legal principles, Nanjing garrison eunuchs have the right to do this.
At that time, Emperor Chengzu's primary responsibility was to protect Liudu, so the military affairs in Nanjing were to inquire about the Nanjing eunuchs. The troops outside Nanjing were also instructed by the Nanjing eunuchs.
In short, Liu Chaoyong, the inner guard, did not allow Eunuch Wei to blow up the Nanjing city wall, nor did he allow him to enter the city to violently collect debts, because this would inevitably cause chaos in Nanjing. If Eunuch Wei insisted on doing whatever he wanted to do, then Eunuch Liu would have to come forward to take over his military power.
"Eunuch Liu knew that Eunuch Wei was helping the inner court, but he was not good at favoring him too much. The Duke of the State always had to give him face. Besides, Nandu was in chaos..."
Chen Fu conveyed the spirit of Eunuch Liu, and still hoped that both sides would sit down and talk, turning wars into jade and silk, and there was no need to make wars.
Seeing that Wei Liangchen's face looked a little ugly, Chen Fu couldn't help saying, "Eunuch Liu hopes that you can understand his difficulties. This is not because my father-in-law intends to stop you. It is actually something. He has to deal with it. Otherwise, Eunuch Liu would not explain it to the court..."
Chen Fu also revealed that although Eunuch Liu approved the request from Duke of Wei, the officers and soldiers of the three major battalions of Shangfangmen were also transferred to the public and did not receive the order of the Internal Guardian Officer, and no substantial attack was allowed to be carried out on the troops of the Central Officer's troops in the Jiangnan township.
"That's all Eunuch Liu can do."
Chen Fu was a little embarrassed. Eunuch Liu's arrangement was still biased against Wei Liangchen. He sent troops but refused to let the troops fight. But the problem was that Wei Liangchen's "creditor" was in the city and did not allow him to enter the city. How could this debt be ruled?
Eunuch Wei nodded slightly and said with a distracted look: "We have appreciated the kindness of Eunuch Liu. It is the right way to make such arrangements. I have to do it. Please give me a message to Eunuch Liu. We will definitely do the things properly and we will never make it difficult for Eunuch Liu."
"That's good, that's good."
Seeing that Eunuch Wei was listening, Chen Fu felt relieved. After listening to Xiao Wei's class analysis, he supported Xiao Wei from the bottom of his heart to suppress the nobles in the Nandu City. But he couldn't make the decision on this matter, so he could only feel sorry.
After seeing Chen Fu off, Cao Wenyao frowned and asked Eunuch Wei: "The inner guards don't let us enter the city, wouldn't that be?"
"Isn't it not?" Eunuch Wei asked with a smile.
Cao Wenyao coughed dryly: "Can't receive the money?"
Eunuch Wei laughed: "Eunuch Liu just didn't let our family slam the wall and used force, and he didn't say he wouldn't let our family enter the city."
"There are more troops in Shangfang Gate. If they don't open the city gate, how can my father-in-law enter the city?" In addition to forcibly exploding the wall to attack the city, Cao Wenyao really couldn't think of any other way to enter the city.
"The way is always something that people think about."
