Jinling, Jinyifu Town Fusi
The two stone lions in front of the door are majestic. After the rain, the gray dust has been washed away cleanly.
At this moment, from the corridor eaves to the Yimen, a group of Jinyi palace guards wearing flying fish uniforms and embroidered spring knives were pressing the handles of their knives tightly, looking alert.
At this moment, the commanders of Jiangnan Camp and several generals who were drunk last night were tied up with ropes and imprisoned in two torture chambers. Because Jia Heng did not say anything about it, Jinyi Mansion only detained them. Several people were not executed.
Zhao Jian's face was as pale as earth, and he was anxiously thinking about how to deal with it.
I was grumbling last night, but in a moment of rage, I led my soldiers and was about to go to the camp. However, before I went to the camp, I was surrounded by Jinyi Tiqi. So quickly, either there was an informant early, or someone snitched!
Zhang Fan, the commander of the Huben right guard who made the loudest noise last night, had an equally ugly face. He glanced at the Jinyi palace guards guarding the outside with swords and cursed: "Who on earth tipped off this damn girl!"
At this time, Huben Left Guard Commander Yan Yun frowned and thought hard, and said: "In addition to the five of us, there were four generals last night. It seems that there are only two left this morning."
Zhao Jian showed a thoughtful look on his face and said coldly: "I remember, when Jin Yi Tiqi was arresting me earlier, I asked why Generals Sun Xing and Xiang Nian were not seen, so they were the two who told the secret! "
"It's probably these two sons of bitches. It's really difficult to paint a dragon or a tiger. They know people and faces but don't know their hearts. We were all harmed by these two beasts!" Zhang Fan's face turned livid and he cursed angrily.
Then he looked at Shang Shougang and said, "Old Shang, these two are your confidants, right? Are they going to betray us?"
At this moment, Shang Shougang had a look of fear in his eyes and said, "Who knew that the two of them would actually inform the imperial court!"
This is going to be a disaster!
"Stop arguing, let's quickly discuss a countermeasure." Zhao Jian had a headache and said quickly.
At this moment, Fanzi's voice came from outside: "Uncle Yongning, Marquis Annan has arrived."
Several Jiangnan camp generals who were detained in the two wing rooms looked at each other and were shocked after hearing this.
"Master Marquis is here." Zhao Jian whispered, looked at a few people, and said: "As long as Master Marquis is here, nothing big will happen. At most, we can follow what we said before and withdraw from the Jiangnan camp, and we will talk later. Everyone is under strict guard."
Yan Yun nodded and said, "As long as Mr. Hou is here, we will have nothing to worry about."
Several people breathed a sigh of relief. They were born and died in Annan, and the Marquis would not sit back and watch them fall into trouble without saving them.
At this moment, in the lobby of Jinyi Mansion's Zhenfu Division, Annan Hou Yezhen was sitting on a pearwood chair. His face was as black as the bottom of a pot, his eyes were vague and unclear. He sat on the small table and cursed: "How dare these bastards do this!"
Although he instructed his daughter to remind Jia Heng to pay attention to the movements of the generals, he did not expect that these people actually wanted to threaten the court to stop the army through mutiny. It was a complete farce!
Jia Heng was sitting behind the eucalyptus, with a calm expression on his face. He looked at Liu Jixian and asked, "Show the recorded confession to Marquis Ye."
This is the information confessed by the two generals who tipped off the information. They are all words said by several people last night, including not only instigating rebellion, but also mentioning when they were drunk that they would lead troops to siege Ningguo Mansion and remove Yong Ningbo for the emperor. This traitor.
Liu Jixian responded, then bowed the confession in his hand to Ye Zhen, and whispered: "Ye Hou, please."
Ye Zhen finished reading and was silent for a long time. The veins on his forehead popped out. He slapped the table down and said angrily: "These bastards have received the emperor's favor and are not satisfied. They want to do this wrong thing. Uncle Yongning." Don’t worry, I promise to teach them a lesson, they have really spent their years living like dogs these past few years!”
Jia Heng turned to look at Ye Zhen, who was looking angry, with an unmoved expression.
He now vaguely felt that An Nanhou and his daughter Ye Nuan told him that he needed to be wary of the generals' movements, and he was protecting those generals.
Otherwise, if they really coerce the soldiers into rebellion, and if he relies on the soldiers and horses of the Jiangbei Camp to suppress it immediately and calmly, let alone other things, then a real bloody storm will start. At that time, it will not be just one head, but hundreds of heads. !
Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "Marquis Ye, there is no other use in saying this now. I consider myself to be the most benevolent and righteous person. Otherwise, just because they are greedy for military pay and amass money without restraint, they are enough to engage in military law. But they are so bold and want to disrupt The imperial court's military plan to organize the army is destructive! As the commander-in-chief of the emperor's personal army, I must not tolerate and support traitors!"
Now, there is no point in talking nonsense. If you want to mutiny, you must be prepared to lose your head.
Moreover, if we don't use their heads, how can we frighten the arrogant soldiers and lazy generals in the Jiangnan camp?
Annan Hou Ye Zhen's eyes moved slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Uncle Yongning only punishes them, but since they have not caused trouble, can we spare the lives of a few of them, disarm and return to the fields, and sacrifice their lives for a field?"
Jia Heng said: "The crimes of these people are serious and light, and we cannot generalize! For those who actively instigate the military academy to support troops and cause chaos, I will definitely punish them severely, otherwise the military might and law of the imperial court will be lost!"
When Ye Zhen heard this, his expression changed, he sighed, and couldn't persuade him any more.
That's all he can do, otherwise if he doesn't take care of this, the old brothers up and down will suffer even more losses.
Jia Heng looked at Liu Jixian and said solemnly: "Bring the relevant prisoners to court for questioning."
Liu Jixian clasped his fists in response, turned around and ordered the guards to go to the execution room to pick up the person.
Not long after, following the shouts of Jinyi Mansion guards, several former commanders and commanders of Jiangnan Camp were escorted to the hall.
After Zhao Jian, He Zhao, Shang Shougang, Yan Yun, and Zhang Fan were escorted into the official hall by Jinyi Mansion guards, they were in the prison of Zhenfu Division. Everyone looked frightened. When they saw the gloomy man sitting on the chair. Annan Hou Yezhen, with a sullen face, breathed a sigh of relief again.
"Kneel down!" At this time, Shang Ming, the manager of the Jinyi Mansion, shouted in a deep voice, and immediately several big and round officers pushed down several generals and saluted Jia Heng and Ye Zhen.
A young nobleman dressed in a black and red python suit was sitting behind a eucalyptus, with a ferocious tiger behind him. His expression was cold and solemn, and there was a hint of evil in his eyes, and he said, "Do you know your guilt?"
At this time, Zhao Jian bit the bullet and said: "I don't know what crime the general has committed, and he will be arrested by the guards of Jinyi Mansion?"
Jia Heng sneered and said, "Have you forgotten what I said last night? If you want to go to the Jiangnan camp to incite the generals and soldiers to mutiny, according to our Han military law, this crime should be executed!"
As soon as these words came out, along with the cold eyes of the Jinyi Palace Guards, the hall seemed to be shrouded in murderous intent for a moment, and the atmosphere was as condensed as ice.
But Annan Hou Yezhen's face was ashen and he said nothing.
At this time, He Zhao bit the bullet and said: "Uncle Yong Ning, my humble position has consequences."
Jia Heng said coldly: "Say."
"I drank too much wine last night. I didn't really want to incite the soldiers to mutiny. I just drank too much wine and talked nonsense. Please give Yongning Bo a warning." He Zhao defended.
When Zhao Jian heard this, he also reacted and said quickly: "Yes, we drank too much and complained a few times. This matter is purely a misunderstanding. Lord Marquis, we never dare to incite soldiers to cause chaos."
Jia Heng looked at the few people below who were evading the important and said in a cold voice: "Are you still quibbling about it now? You waited so early in the morning that you were already sober, and in groups, leading hundreds of soldiers, rode to Jiangnan University. Camp, the intention of inciting the soldiers to cause rebellion is clearly revealed, and in addition, two generals gave oral evidence to prove it."
With that said, he winked at Liu Jixian and handed over the confession.
Jia Heng said: "According to what you think, I used the Jiangnan camp to stir up soldiers to cause chaos. I hope that the officials in Jinling City will impeach me and stop reorganizing the army, so as to escape the corrupt military pay that I said I had previously seized."
The faces of the generals and colonels below were gloomy, and there was a bad feeling in their hearts.
"Master Hou, please tell me, we have no intention of causing trouble." Yan Yun said loudly, feeling anxious.
Annan Hou Ye Zhen sighed and said: "Brothers, the Holy One has the ambition to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty, and no one can resist the power of the imperial court to rectify the army and use military force."
What can he do? When the general trend comes, the Ye family will always take action, and the Supreme Emperor, like the old lady of the Zhen family, is afraid that the good times will become worse day by day.
By then, the Ye family will also perish along with Jiangnan Camp.
Jia Heng glanced at Annan Hou Ye Zhen and thought to himself, Lu Duan is such a good person.
Just now I thought that Ye Zhen was saved, but in fact there should be another layer, a few heads sacrificed, to pave the way for the Ye family to turn around smoothly.
However, he soon made An Nanhou lose the morale of the Jiangnan camp.
"Come here, please pass on my command to take Zhao Jian, Zhang Fan, and Shang Zhenggang into custody. They will be charged with rebellion and military law will be enforced. They will hang their heads at the gate of the Jiangnan camp to warn the troops. In addition, He Zhao, Yan Yun, Wang Ke and Feng Youlin are the four generals who are threatening to follow. They have fifty sticks and are taken to the imperial prison to await their fate!" Jia Heng said in a deep voice.
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Jian's face changed drastically, and he said anxiously: "We have been wronged, Lord Marquis! Lord Marquis!"
Zhang Fan kept cursing: "Huangkou kid, I'm going to kill you!"
This prince was once a fighting general in the battle between Chen Han and Annan. Although he is nearly fifty years old, he is still fierce and fierce. He breaks free from the shackles of two Jinyi Mansion fans, but after all, it is rusted by many years of wealthy life. His body collapsed and he was pinned to the ground by several Jinyi Palace guards.
Several other generals saw this and wanted to make some changes. The guards around them loaded their crossbows and aimed at several people.
Jia Heng sneered and said: "Take the three beasts down and chop them down!"
A dozen Jinyi guards escorted several people back to the outside. After a while, there was a faint scream.
Jia Heng looked at the kneeling generals below, then turned to look at An Nanhou who had closed his eyes, and said: "So unruly and unruly, but without the bloody courage of the past, our Han generals have fallen like this. .”
A short while later, Shang Ming, who was responsible for the execution of hundreds of households, had a rosy complexion and a fierce look in his eyes. He led a few guards in royal robes from outside, held the head in a cloth bag, and said: "Captain, here are the heads of the three generals!"
"Send it to the Jiangnan camp so that all the troops can take a warning!" Jia Heng said in a deep voice with a frosty face.
Shang Ming shouted yes.
"Several generals were sent outside for execution and imprisonment." Jia Heng looked at the generals below.
After dealing with the general, Jia Heng looked at Annanhou Ye Zhen and asked: "Yehou, I wonder if my treatment is appropriate for Annanhou?"
In fact, this question has a bit of murderous intention.
Ye Zhen opened his eyes at this time and sighed: "Military law is like a mountain, and Uncle Yongning's handling is not inappropriate."
Hanging his head at the camp gate, killing chickens to scare the monkeys. It seems that the general of the Jiangnan camp is a monkey. Is he not that monkey?
Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "The Jiangnan camp will be fully reorganized from now on, inventory of relevant troop numbers will be carried out, and military pay that has been embezzled over the years will be recovered. We also ask for Ye Hou's assistance."
At this moment, a general came in from outside, raised his hands and said, "Sir, five thousand troops of Jiangbei Daying Navy have marched to Xinjiangkou and arrived at Jinling."
Jia Heng stood up and said, "Marquis Ye, follow me to greet the navy from the Jiangbei camp."
This navy is only the first batch, and other troops will be sent to the Jiangnan camp later to minimize the risk of mutiny.
It can be said that he cannot be like Wang Ziteng, who waits for the mutiny to be stirred up before suppressing it. Otherwise, for a military minister like him, it will undoubtedly be a dereliction of duty to some extent. He must put out the fire before it completely burns out. put out.
Ye Zhen looked silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Uncle Yongning, I don't feel very well. Can you go back to the Marquis' Mansion first?"
The old robe appeared before him with bloodied heads just now, but he was powerless.
Seeing Ye Zhen's dejected expression, Jia Heng did not force him to stay, and said, "Then I will send Ye Hou off."
It was quite exciting for Ye Zhen to see his former general die in front of his eyes.
His move was not intended to make enemies, or to have any personal grudge against An Nan Hou, but... to attack An Nan Hou's prestige and self-confidence.
Minimize An Nanhou's influence on the Jiangnan camp.
As the person who organized the army in the Jiangnan camp, he naturally had to exert his own influence.
After sending Annan Hou Ye Zhen out of the Zhenfu Division, Jia Heng returned to the Zhenfu Division's official office, looked at Liu Jixian, and said, "Did those officials from the Ministry of War confess yesterday?"
Yesterday, I went to the Ministry of War and captured the Lang Zhong, Yuan Wai Lang and other officials from the Arsenal, Chariot and Chariot Departments. They are now being imprisoned for trial.
Liu Jixian reported: "After interrogation all night, some confessions have been made. The low-ranking officials are still interrogating, but the Ministry of Revenue heard about the co-investigation. Mr. Tan Jietan, the minister of the Ministry of Revenue, asked when he would be free to meet."
Tan Jie still remembers Jia Heng's recommendation to be the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. Moreover, he heard that the Ministry of War Arsenal's Cleaning Department had falsely reported accounts and asked for more military pay from the court, so he took out the relevant withdrawal details from the Ministry of Household and assisted Jinyi Prefecture's governor. The company investigates the situation.
Jia Heng nodded and said: "Afterwards, I will collect the interviews and confessions into a book and bring them over. As for Minister Tan, I said that I will discuss the rectification of the salt affairs first if I have free time tomorrow."
The confessions were all evidence used to impeach the two ministers of the Ministry of War afterwards.
Chiang and Meng have no accusations against him yet, but the shortage of arsenals and false reports of weapons are the incriminating materials for impeachment.
Liu Jixian cupped his hands and responded: "Later, I will deliver the books to the governor."
Jia Heng nodded, signaled Liu Jixian to go and get busy, and then returned to the back hall. At this moment, Chen Xiao, who was wearing Feiyu uniform, put down the tea cup, got up, faced the young man, and asked, "Were there people killed in front?"
"Kill three and open the rest of the net. It will be much easier to organize the Jiangnan camp later." Jia Heng sat down, picked up the tea cup, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Oh, oh?" Chen Xiaoxiu frowned and looked at the teacup in Jia Heng's hand. Her watery eyes fluctuated for a moment, and then she regained her composure.
"What's wrong?" Jia Heng was surprised and drank tea to moisten his throat.
Well, why is it half a cup of tea?
Chen Xiao picked up the teapot, poured a cup into the tea cup placed next to Jia Heng's hand, and sat silently on the chair on the other side.
"I don't dislike you." Jia Heng looked at the girl with pure temperament and said softly.
Chen Xiao: "..."
Jia Heng didn't pay attention, picked up the tea cup, took a sip, smiled and said: "Xiaoxiao, in a moment, we will go to the ferry to greet the navy from the Jiangbei camp. After that, the soldiers and horses will arrive at the Jiangnan camp one after another. Once the camp is established, the entire army can be deployed."
Up to now, we have basically sorted out the internal affairs. The next step is to concentrate on rectifying military affairs and salt affairs.
Chen Xiaoyurong paused slightly and said softly: "How do you plan to allocate the generals and generals needed to recruit and train soldiers?"
If Jiangnan Camp is also in his hands, then...
Jia Heng looked at the girl who was wearing a flying fish suit and a mountain crown on her head. The girl had beautiful features and eyes. She looked at Shen Fei and chuckled: "Princess Xiaoxiao, are you spying on military aircraft?"
Chen Xiao: "..."
"You like to talk but don't say it." Chen Xiao snorted coldly and said in anger. Just now he said that he didn't dislike it, but now he hid it.
Just as he was thinking this, he saw his bare hand being held by the young man again, and he couldn't help but raise his eyes.
Jia Heng raised his eyes to look at Chen Xiao's clear eyes that could reflect the silhouette of a person, and whispered: "The middle and low-ranking generals will be hired based on their talents. The high-ranking generals will go to the imperial court to respectfully request the Holy Judge."
After all, he had not led troops to fight many victorious battles. Although the battle in Henan promoted young generals from the Jia clan, the core circle consisted of Xie, Cai and others and the old troops of the Jia family in Beijing.
In fact, he actually didn't have many people with him, and Jiangnan Camp couldn't transfer a bunch of young generals from the Jia clan to occupy high positions, and their deeds were too obvious.
Needless to say, official positions such as guard commander cannot be forced. Firstly, the recommended person has sufficient merit, and secondly, he must obtain the approval of Emperor Chongping. If he appoints him at will, he is committing a taboo, like Nian Gengyao, or even The situation is more serious because he is the son-in-law of the emperor.
However, the generals and players can be cultivated.
"I plan to organize troops and horses with thousands of households. The other commanders and commanders are temporarily vacant, waiting for the appointment of the court, and the so-called Ning Quemucha." Jia Heng thought for a while, looked at Chen Xiao, and whispered Said: "Actually, the key to retraining the new army is to train the troops, not to prepare generals to command the troops. If there is a war, guerrillas and generals will be mobilized to command the troops immediately."
This is his current method of dealing with the lack of trusted generals to replenish military positions. Of course, war is still needed. Only war can quickly promote the talents he has discovered.
Otherwise, after he has trained his troops and horses, he will make wedding clothes for others. When Emperor Chongping sends a few generals to lead the troops, his influence on the Jiangnan camp will gradually weaken as time goes by.
Therefore, when I sat back and watched Duduo, I also hoped that he... would do something at sea again.
Well, these are the thoughts hidden deepest in my heart, and they are absolutely inhumane thoughts.
Xiaoxiao, being the strange person at the scene, could still guess a little bit, but the only daughter of King Zhou seemed to be very happy to see him like this, and I don't know if she was filled with hatred.
Yes, he wants to cultivate as many of his own party members as possible in Jiangnan.
Yu Gong, a minister of the Zhuguo Kingdom like him, also needs some support from local party members. Yu Private, once the affairs of Jinyang and Zhen's concubines are exposed, they will not be able to resist in the face of conspiracies and machinations. nothing.
Chen Xiao heard this, thought for a moment, nodded and agreed: "This method is very good. Now that the Jiangnan camp is in the process of reorganization, it is not appropriate to send some uninformed generals to intervene randomly."
This man is really far-sighted, but in this way, he can slowly wait for his generals to make contributions, and gradually fill the positions in the Jiangnan camp.
It is almost conceivable that as long as there is still war in the south, some generals can be trained to serve in the army. This is a matter of course.
But, why is he talking to himself like this? Are you really going to stop seeing her?
At this moment, the girl raised her eyes to look at the young man with a dull gaze. She was stunned for a moment. Then, she suddenly found that her hand was held by Jia Heng for a long time, but she didn't notice anything just now?
A faint blush flashed across her fair and snowy cheeks. She quickly pulled away, took the tea cup, lowered her head and took a sip. The curved eyelashes under her beautiful eyebrows trembled sharply, and then returned to calm.
But he didn't realize that the tea cup was the tea cup used by Jia Heng.
