Except for Xiaoqi Diao Debao, who scolded Wang Kun for being a dead eunuch in front of dozens of people, the rest of the Jinyiwei were sent to Xinghe City for labor reform, but their waistbands and uniforms were all still there.
As a result, twenty Xinghe Army soldiers put on Feiyu uniforms and temporarily served as Wang Kun's bodyguards.
Pretending to be an emperor's own soldier is a capital crime!
Isn't it also a capital crime to arrest the supervisors and guards?
Since you have committed a capital crime, you don’t mind committing more, hahaha...
Huang Yi didn't care, and the soldiers under his command didn't care even more.
After they put on the Feiyu uniform and picked up the Xiuchun Dao, their aura was even more powerful than that of the real Jin Yiwei.
Not all Jinyiwei are fake, at least there is one who can guarantee the authenticity.
Of course this person is Diao Debao.
He had been with the army for more than half a month and was already convinced. He knew the consequences of scolding the eunuch of the supervisory army in person, and he didn't want Wang Kun to be able to turn around.
So he, like the Jin Yiwei disguised by the Xinghe Army, closely monitored Wang Kun's every move.
If Wang Kun dared to make any move, Diao Debao would dare to chop the dead eunuch with his knife.
Wang Kun had a good brain, but he couldn't distinguish the current situation. He didn't want to play any tricks or plan to escape.
Because he knew that the emperor was bullying and fearful of the strong, and he understood that even if he could escape back to the capital and report Huang Yi, there would be only death waiting for him.
Even if the emperor spares his life, a powerless eunuch who has fallen out of favor may be bullied by other eunuchs to the point of death.
So Wang Kun chose to believe Huang Yi and worked hard to cooperate with Huang Yi to get what he wanted.
The Xinghe Army came suddenly, fought quickly, and screened the battlefield impeccably.
Therefore, the seven big landowners and gentry families who secretly communicated with Xue Mazi had no idea that the affair had happened.
The villages and villages run by rural landlords and squires are all equipped with defensive capabilities. Some villages can even organize thousands of strong men to fight defense battles.
Wang Kun has already experienced Huang Yi's lawlessness.
He may have thought before that no one would dare to commit such a major crime as murdering the supervisor, which would annihilate the nine clans.
But through what he saw and heard during this period, Wang Kun suddenly realized that the emperor might really have no way to deal with a general like Huang Yi.
To kill the Nine Clan, you have to catch someone first!
Do Jin Yiwei and Dongchang dare to go to Xinghe City or Dongshan Fort to arrest people?
What if Huang Yi leads his troops into Shanxi?
Who has the ability to come to the Xinghe military camp to arrest the general?
Wang Kun had already learned that what happened in Xuan Mansion was not revealed. The civil and military generals of Xuanda University only knew that the Chief Eunuch of the Supervisory Army personally went to Xinghe Camp to supervise the suppression of bandits, and could not imagine that the Chief Eunuch was actually coerced.
Bitter! Life! Wang Kun was so angry that he couldn't help it!
When Huang Yi asked him to do something, he nodded and bowed cautiously. His demeanor was the same as when he served Long Live Lord.
Houjiazhuang is relatively large, with hundreds of households and thousands of people. There are only three surnames: Hou, Ma and Sun, and more than 70% of them are surnamed Hou.
Hou Yuwen is a well-known figure in Houjiazhuang. He has read books, but unfortunately he stopped at being a boy. He was not even admitted as a scholar. In the end, he had to become a supervisor.
The Hou family not only owns thousands of fertile fields, but is also the largest grain merchant within a radius of 200 miles.
Their grain business is very large, accounting for more than 70% of the grain sales in the three nearby counties.
The reason why their family is able to do this is because Hou Yuwen has been colluding with the Xue Mazi gang for many years. The risk of transporting food in and out of other families is too high, and if it fails, they will lose their personal wealth.
Wherever other people store food, there is a high probability that they will be robbed by Xue Mazi's gang.
If other grain merchants refuse to purchase goods uniformly with the Hou family, they might be kidnapped by the Xue Mazi gang.
These days, the imperial power does not go to the countryside, and Hou Jiansheng is the king of Houjiazhuang. The county magistrate does not dare to offend such a big country squire easily.
After decades, there really is no one who can go to Houjiazhuang to get someone.
This kind of Zhuangzi even dared to close the door and confront the imperial officers and soldiers. The officers and soldiers dared to use force, and the young and middle-aged people in Zhuangzi dared to use stones and tiles to greet them.
If the officers and soldiers really attack, Zhuang Ding will not only dare to wield swords and guns, but even fire with blunderbuss and French machine guns.
But, there are buts.
When the strong men saw the Jin Yiwei and the county magistrate accompanying the Xuan Grand Supervisor's army, no one dared to close the door. Hou Jiansheng hurriedly led more than a dozen clan elders and squires to come out to greet them.
Correct
It stands to reason that if you stretch out your hand, you won’t hit the smiling person!
Who would have thought that just after he invited the military eunuch to his home, Eunuch Wang fell out, scaring the uninformed county magistrate to the point where he was shaking on the spot...
Wang Kun was able to become the chief eunuch of the Supervisory Army among thousands of eunuchs, and of course he had a method.
In order to ensure that the war was carried out without bloodshed, he specially wrote an official document and ordered the county magistrate to accompany him to inspect the people's situation.
Facts have proved that it is much easier to lead the imperial guards and the army into the strongholds of big landlords and squire with parents and officials accompanying them.
As long as the criminal leaders are taken down, everyone else will remain silent, and no one will dare to take up arms to resist the law.
In just two days, five of the gangsters' supervisors, Yuanwai, and Juren masters living in the countryside were captured.
Next, Wang Kun continued his efforts and went directly to the county to arrest two big bosses and bring them to justice.
Luck can't stop it. When Wang Kun's house was ransacked, he found a Buddha statue of Wusheng Laomu and more than a hundred evil books of the White Lotus Sect.
The imperial court was so corrupt that it couldn't even do the job of confiscating homes. More than half of the wealth confiscated was often divided among the participants.
The young soldiers of the Ranxinghe Army did their job very conscientiously. Not only did no one dare to hide it secretly, but they also tried their best to return the items to the warehouse.
First of all, they were all literate and could check letters when searching homes. They also adopted a differentiated approach to classify the maids and servants in the houses being searched.
Then they use coercion and inducement to force the maids and servants to reveal where the master's money is hidden.
It doesn't matter if you don't know the place, you just need to name the most powerful housekeeper in the house.
If you are not afraid of someone who is strong-willed, why can't you ask for someone under three trees?
This is different from beating someone into a trick, because fabricating the secret of hiding gold and silver cannot withstand on-the-spot verification.
Facts have proved that the gold, silver, treasures and food confiscated by annihilating Xue Mazi's gang are far less than beating seven local tycoons.
Enough food and salary to support the Xinghe Army for a year has been obtained!
Huang Yi's food and salary were all in full, and the regular musketeers received one or two and a half coins of silver per month plus five measures of wheat.
The cavalry warriors will receive five more silver coins per month, the corps commander will receive one more tael of silver, and the flag officer will receive two more taels.
The Xinghe Army now has 5,200 regular soldiers, and this number is still increasing.
The annual salary alone is no less than 180,000 taels, and the original grain is at least 30,000 shi.
These are taken home by regular soldiers on a monthly basis, excluding food and clothing during training.
There is also the cost of armor and weapons, horses, and barracks.
All in all, the cost of raising troops was too high, so most generals in the late Ming Dynasty were only willing to support their servants.
Because servants are private soldiers, they can be taken with them wherever the general goes to serve.
