Outside the Daming Palace, the Iron Guard Admiral Zhu Shijie knelt here early in the morning.
His troops attacked and killed the Xiuyi Guards. As the admiral of the Iron Guard Battalion, he had an unshirkable responsibility.
He also knew that any excuse at this time would make the Supreme Emperor even more angry, so he did not defend himself and only apologized.
"Your Majesty, Marquis Niling has been kneeling for an hour!"
In the Chengtian Palace, Dai Quan once again reported to Li Zhe the situation outside the Daming Palace.
"Humph! This is my good minister!"
"Taizu should not have given these generals such power in the first place!"
Thinking of the plans he had made over the years to prevent military commanders from becoming big, Li Zhe's eyes also showed a hint of evil.
"You still can't punish too much!"
Now Li Zhe begins to regret that he had dealt too harshly with the founding lineage.
Unexpectedly, after the older generation of the founder of the country passed away, none of the descendants would be able to take up the leading role.
This gave Longqing upstarts an opportunity to grow bigger.
And because he was so cruel to the founding lineage, Longqing's upstarts were also frightened.
They all looked for a way out for themselves and dared to participate in the princes' fight for the throne.
Now that the situation has become overwhelming, he does not dare to act cruelly again.
"According to my decree, Marquis Ningling failed to manage the army, causing his generals to rebel. He was temporarily dismissed from the post of Commander-in-Chief of the Iron Guard Battalion, demoted to a second rank, and spent a year behind closed doors!"
"The post of Admiral of the Iron Guard Camp will be temporarily taken over by Chang Yanhe. Luo Yuancheng, Marquis of Jingbian, will be transferred to the Xishan Camp to take over the post of Admiral of the Town Military Camp from Marquis Anyang!"
"promise!"
After Li Zhe finished speaking, Dai Quan had already prepared two copies of the imperial edict, and after stamping the two seals, he left the Daming Palace and went to the cabinet to stamp the seal.
Jia Hui, on his side, no longer acted stealthily, and began to divide the army into three groups, led by Xiu Yiwei, to sweep all the places around the capital where soldiers might be hiding.
After more than two months, six rebel camps were destroyed, more than 6,000 rebels were killed, more than 4,000 were captured, and 36 leaders were captured.
Some of the information from the Xiuyi Guards was wrong, and some had already left the capital in advance. When the Xianwu Camp arrived, it was already an empty camp.
After this sweep, there were no more troops outside the imperial court in the capital.
It can be regarded as cutting off the wings of several princes in the dark.
And there are some clues pointing directly to the two princes Zhongyi and Yi Zhong.
But the evidence is not enough now, and it is not easy to force them too much, so Emperor Taichang did not continue to investigate further.
It is worth mentioning that the rewards for Jia Hui and Mao Yinghui have also been reduced.
Mao Yinghui got his wish and became the Tianjin General Soldier, and the former Tianjin General Soldier was transferred to Liaodong Town.
Jia Hui's originally downgraded title was also raised again.
His official position was also promoted and he served as the commander of the Fourth Military Camp.
As for why Jia Hui was given this official position, all the martial arts officers in Shenjing City understood the meaning.
On the second day after Jia Hui's appointment was issued, all the dandies in Siwuying were transferred away from the Beijing camp by their family elders.
Several generals from the Longqing lineage were also looking for ways to leave Siwuying.
Not willing to work under Jia Hui, this is Jia Hui's current power.
"Haha, it seems that there are a lot of generals missing from this camp!"
Inside the camp, Jia Hui was a little amused for a moment when he looked at the list of officials from each battalion who had been transferred out of Siwu Camp.
Isn't this why someone gives me a pillow when I feel sleepy?
He personally drew up a list, then said hello to Emperor Taichang, and then handed the list to the Ministry of War.
Not long after, the acknowledgment from the Ministry of War was also sent to Jingying. It seemed that someone above him was very efficient in doing things.
"The commander has given an order, and the generals and staff of the Fourth Military Camp should go to the main tent of the Xianwu Camp to discuss military aircraft!"
When Lu Qing came over to deliver the order, the admirals of Yaowu and Lianwu battalions were gathering together to talk.
After hearing Jia Hui's military order, the two looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
Logically speaking, the rank of commander is the same as that of admiral. Although he has a subordinate relationship with the admirals of each battalion, it is just another official position established by the imperial court.
Most of them were Wuhou, and each commanded a battalion of soldiers and horses. They all had the same boss, the Jingying Jiedu Envoy.
Unless there is a decree to grant a special title, generally one would not really treat his admirals as subordinates.
But looking at Jia Hui's formation today, this directly shows his subordinate relationship to them.
If it were anyone else, the two of them would naturally not give face easily, but now they were facing Jia Hui, so they couldn't help but treat him with caution.
"General, I will see the commander at last!"
Soon, all the generals of the Fourth Military Camp gathered in the large tent of the Xianwu Camp.
"Everyone is here, why don't you hurry up and pay homage to Shangguan!"
Seeing that only four generals from the Xianwu camp were paying homage to Jia Hui, Wang Min couldn't help shouting and asking questions to the general below.
Jia Hui didn't say anything about this, but quietly waited for everyone's actions.
It was surprisingly quiet in the tent for a while, and no one spoke first.
Seeing that everyone still didn't move, Wang Min and others had already raised their spears, as if they wanted to kill them here.
"General, I will see the commander at last!"
"See the Commander!"
Soon, some generals could not bear the solemn atmosphere in the tent and knelt down on one knee to pay homage to Jia Hui.
Until the end, feeling the murderous intent radiating from Jia Hui's body, everyone except Yaowu and Lianwu, the two admirals, fell to their knees.
"Hahaha, generals, you don't need to be polite!"
"Admiral Qi, Admiral Xu, please don't pay homage, otherwise Jia Hui will be killed!"
"Please sit down, please sit down!"
Jia Hui never thought that Qi Wei and Xu Hong would pay homage to him.
As a Marquis and Uncle Wu, how could you not be arrogant?
If they really worshiped directly in front of him today, he would have to think about whether they had any conspiracy.
"The commander has summoned us, what are your orders?"
After sitting down, the admiral of Yaowu Camp, Yongyi Hou Qiwei, was the first to ask.
Jia Hui did not hide this. He took out a document and smiled at everyone:
"I am dissatisfied with you all because I am not very popular. I have just assumed the post of commander and my generals have already left so many places."
"In order to prevent the generals from having no one available, I have reported this matter to the Ministry of War to fill in the missing generals in each battalion. This is the list of generals. Please take a look at it, generals!"
After saying that, he handed over the document in his hand.
"Commander Jia, although you are the commander of the Fourth Military Camp, the Twelve Regiments and Camps of the Beijing Camp do not interfere with each other's military affairs. This is a rule that has been in place since the time of Taizu. Today, Commander Jia has arranged the generals in our camp without authorization. Is there something wrong? !”
Regarding the documents, Yongyi Hou Qiwei and Cheng Yibo did not open them, but only expressed their dissatisfaction with Jia Hui's interference in the military affairs of their two battalions.
"Hey, you two admirals, don't be surprised. I feel sorry for you. Besides, during Taizu's time, all the capital camps were under the control of the Jiedushi, so there was no such position as a commander!"
"At this time, the governor has already informed your majesty, and your majesty has agreed! You officers and men don't need to say any more! Could it be that even your majesty can't interfere in your military affairs?"
"Uncle Zhenwu is joking!"
As soon as Jia Hui said this, the two of them dared not answer the question, so they quickly had a laugh and stopped the matter.
They were not willing to let Jia Hui's men enter their camp, so they said again:
"Commander, the Emperor once said that all military deployments must be carried out according to the will of the Daming Palace. I wonder if the Commander has ever asked the Emperor about his intentions?"
This is to move Emperor Longqing out and block Jia Hui's people back.
