He even wished that Zhu Changwu would make more such minor mistakes. A person always has to have a variety of hobbies, so that he can watch other people's dishes.
On the contrary, if Zhu Changwu had no faults at all, it would only make Chongzhen a little scared. Now that I know this kid is lecherous, it will be easier to deal with. In the future, when he makes meritorious deeds, he can be rewarded with more women.
It's ridiculous, so what if Chongzhen is the emperor? The limitations of his vision and thinking made him regard the establishment of female soldiers as Zhu Changwu's private matter, which was a big mistake.
"By the way, long live my lord, Master Zhu also arrested Yang Guanguang, the Minister of Rites, today. I heard that this man also secretly contacted the intruders, and 1.7 million taels of silver were swept out of his house on the spot."
"It should be caught!"
When Chongzhen heard that there were 1.7 million taels, his teeth itched with hatred.
He has now discovered that each of these ministers seems to be richer than him. And think about it carefully, where does this money come from? Aren’t they all from the Ming Dynasty?
It's a shame that they still persuade themselves not to compete with the people for profit. Now they are the only one who is poor. They are all extremely rich. What are they waiting for if they don't kill such people?
"I just heard that Wu Mengming and Luo Yangxing appeared with Jin Yiwei and rescued Yang Guanguang." Wang Chengen continued to report, paused here, and slowly looked up at the emperor's reaction.
"Are they finally willing to show up?" After hearing this, Chongzhen's face was still calm, but his eyes were filled with anger, and he was obviously on the verge of going crazy.
Regardless of Jinyiwei or Dongchang, they were all the yamen that Chongzhen trusted the most. Especially factory ministers and commanders, who cannot be held unless he is the most trusted. But it turned out that their so-called loyalty was just lip service.
A friend in need is a friend indeed. At this moment, Chongzhen finally recognized the true face of some people.
"Master Zhu has now occupied the Yang Mansion and said that he will build the Daming Research Institute there. Craftsmen have now entered the house and have begun internal construction."
"Oh, is the research institute going to start construction? Okay, great. Well, Wang Daban, keep an eye on this research institute. I am also very curious about what good things can be produced in it." When talking about this matter , Chongzhen's face softened a lot, and there was still curiosity in his eyes.
"I obey the decree." Wang Chengen quickly agreed.
"By the way, where is Master Zhu now?" Chongzhen asked casually.
"It should be in the military camp. Liugou's deputy general Bai Bangzheng came to the capital with two thousand Ming troops. King Qin was received by Zhu Shaofu. I think he should go there tonight to learn about the situation."
Chongzhen had already heard Wang Chengen's report on Bai Bangzheng's invasion of Beijing during the day, so this was not surprising. "Okay, I'll just give him a hard time. Okay, even if he has something to do, I won't summon him, so I don't have to go back and say that I always come to him when I have nothing to do and waste his time, haha."
It was obvious that Zhu Changwu was impatient with him, but it seemed that when Chongzhen said this, he was not angry at all.
I'm afraid even Chongzhen also knows that everything Zhu Changwu is doing now is for the good of Ming Dynasty. Even if he neglects himself, it is just a trivial matter.
Chongzhen thought Zhu Changwu went to Bai Bangzheng's military camp, but Bai Bangzheng thought he went to the palace to see the emperor. He was already prepared for Zhu Changwu to come tonight. For this reason, he ordered his men to prepare meals, but no one was there after waiting.
Thinking that Zhu Changwu was now a popular person in His Majesty's eyes, he had been busy all day, and should have gone to see the emperor in the evening to claim credit, so he didn't think too much and fell asleep very early. Little did he know that when he met Duke Zhou in his dream, Zhu Changwu was leading the future dragon army on their killing journey.
On the outskirts of the Dashun Army, General Guo Yi and Liu Tichun were on duty today.
After he returned from the meeting with Li Zicheng, he arranged a night patrol team. Compared with yesterday, it was obvious that the number of patrol troops tonight was much smaller.
Ever since Li Mou and He Jin were defeated and killed, some people in the Dashun army were panicking. They didn't know how many advanced weapons the Ming army still had, and they didn't know when they would come over.
In order to survive, they turn a blind eye even when sleeping at night, which makes many people feel a little depressed during the day.
Now that there was news from Bai Bangzheng, he knew that the Ming army would not take action until tomorrow night. After Liu Tichun returned to camp, he ordered everyone except the patrol team to rest and prepare to recharge their batteries.
It was at this time that Zhu Changwu came over with his army.
None of the two hundred and fifty-five people were riding horses, and the future war horses were placed far away. At this time, each of them held a tiger-tooth dagger in their mouths, and followed Zhu Changwu's example of walking hunched in the grass.
The weather in April means that the grass has grown a lot taller. Unless you pay special attention, once you hide in it, the chance of being discovered is still very low.
On the way here, Zhu Changwu had already instilled in everyone what special operations the Dragon Army should have. Although everyone is still confused, they know one thing, that is, they must not make a sound and hide themselves completely.
In Zhu Changwu's words, only by protecting yourself better can you kill more enemies.
Zhu Changwu, who was walking at the front, could already see the patrol team of the Dashun Army in his night vision goggles. He squatted down, followed by the 254 people behind him who followed suit.
"Have you seen the five-man patrol in front? The real dragon soldiers have to deal with them quietly. I will show you how to do it in detail later. I will only demonstrate it once. It will be your turn next time. Take action."
After saying this in a low voice, Zhu Changwu threw away everyone, then bent down and trotted closer to the five-person patrol team.
Five Dashun Army patrol officers were walking listlessly outside the camp.
The patrol officers of the Dashun Army do not have fixed personnel, and they do not even make arrangements in advance. Instead, they choose to draw lots, and whoever is drawn will be the one.
It's like some patrol soldiers. During the day, they were tired all day long, but at night, they were unlucky and had to go out on patrol. They were already in low spirits. It would be strange if they could discover any important enemy information.
But such a result is also a good thing for Zhu Changwu's actions. The weaker the enemy is, the less difficulties he will encounter in training his troops.
Otherwise, the first time you take action is to encounter the enemy's elite, then any accident may occur.
Under the gaze of more than two hundred soldiers, Zhu Changwu took advantage of the cover of night and slowly approached the five patrolling Dashun troops, approaching...
When the distance between the two sides was less than five steps, Zhu Changwu squatted down and disappeared from everyone's sight. Then he jumped up, just behind the last patrolling soldier, and stretched out his left hand to cover it. The tiger-tooth dagger in his right hand swiped past the opponent's mouth, and the Dashun Army soldier slowly fell to the ground.
Zhu Changwu, who was well prepared, gently supported the other party's body, slowly lowered him to the ground, and with a gentle push, buried his entire body in the grass on the side of the path. He continued to step forward, repeating previous actions.
Zhu Changwu's footsteps were very light, but his movements were fast, and he was very decisive in using the sword without any hesitation or pause. Under his constant operation, four Dashun Army patrols were wiped off the neck by him alone. But it was only then that the person walking at the front felt something was wrong. Why did it feel so quiet around him?
It seemed like you could still hear footsteps behind you just now, but now, there is nothing?
With doubtful thoughts, he turned his head, and then saw Zhu Changwu looking at him with a smile, and then... nothing more.
A blood arrow was thrown out, and after the last soldier's neck was wiped, he was kicked into the grass, and Zhu Changwu retreated to the team below like a civet cat. "As you can see, you will form a team of ten in a while and deal with these patrols like I just did."
Ten people form a team, one team is the vanguard, and the other team is the backup team. This is to prevent any movement after the enemy cannot be killed with one blow.
But after all, this is the first time he has done such a thing. For safety reasons, Zhu Changwu will bring a Type 191 equipped with a silencer to assist him. If an unexpected situation occurs, he will replenish the gun at any time.
"Remember, I will be watching all your actions for a while. How you perform, I will give us a score. If you make too many mistakes, you will be judged as unqualified, and you will be expelled from the team when you return. You can only go back and be an ordinary Ming army. The opportunity is given to you, how you seize it depends on your performance, start taking action now."
Given a certain amount of pressure, Zhu Changwu waved his hand, and the first ten-man team headed by Ji Jinkai headed into the grass in the dark.
If there was enough time, Zhu Changwu wouldn't want to put so much pressure on them, but now that foreign enemies are on the side, he has no time to prepare.
Wu Sangui was still guarding Shanhaiguan in the north, so Jiannu couldn't get through, so it was better to say something. But no one can guarantee that there will be no accidents. Once Beijing is attacked from both sides, it will be unable to defend itself.
There is not much time left for you, so you can only take some extraordinary measures at this time.
Of course, there are advantages to every disadvantage. Direct actual combat is a condition that will not be available in training in peacetime. This will also allow everyone to adapt to this battlefield and have the opportunity to perform better.
Ji Jinkai led nine people to attack. During the advance, the first five were a team and the last five were substitutes. An ambush lay beside the trail.
As soon as he hid himself, five patrol soldiers from the Dashun Army strode toward him from far away.
