Damn it!
Are you too direct?
The faces of the commanders of the 21st Guards all changed, and they secretly complained about the new temporary head of the Ministry of War.
Li Banghua put down his tea cup, glanced at the commanders, and finally looked at Wu Changqing, the commander of the flag guard.
"Wu Changqing, Mr. Wu, please tell me first!"
Wu Changqing, the commander of the flag guard, looked gloomy: "Master Li, what do you mean, why can't I understand you?"
"Can't understand?"
"Among the twenty-one commanders, why is my name the first to call your name? Don't you have any idea?"
Li Banghua sneered: "Come here, drag Wu Changqing down, beat him with twenty army sticks, and make Mr. Wu wake up!"
As soon as he finished speaking, four burly guards entered the lobby, reaching out to catch Wu Changqing.
Wu Changqing said angrily: "Li Banghua, how dare you! I am the 26th Guards of the Emperor's personal army and a third-grade general. You have no right to deal with me."
Li Banghua stood up instantly and stared at Wu Changqing coldly: "Hey, you still know that you are His Majesty's personal army? Do you know that you are still defecting to Wei Zhongxian? You are not a good commanding officer of the personal army, so you have to be a dog?"
"So what if you are a third-rank commander? I am the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War, and I am temporarily in charge of the Ministry of War. If the Minister of the Ministry of War is not appointed, I will be your immediate superior.
Since I dare to call you here, I have obtained the advantage of Your Majesty. Even if I kill you, Your Majesty will not say anything. "
"With no respect, calling the superior by his name, despising the superior, the crime will be increased to one level, plus ten military sticks."
"Drag him down and beat him!"
"If you dare to resist, you will be punished for treason and killed without mercy!"
The long swords on the waists of the four Jinyi guards were unsheathed. The swords were pointed at Wu Changqing slantingly. The leader said: "Master Wu, the swords have no eyes. Don't make it difficult for us. Please!"
Wu Changqing's face was gloomy: "Commanders, if Li Banghua is treating me like this now, he will treat you like this in a while. Do you also want to be humiliated?"
The commanders of the remaining twenty guards looked a little ugly. Someone was about to speak when they suddenly heard the sound of several footsteps and the sound of swords being unsheathed.
"If you dare to take action, I will kill you all. Afterwards, I will say that you intend to rebel. Do you want to try?"
Seeing that everyone was silent, Li Banghua waved his right hand, and four Jinyi guards stepped forward, grabbed Wu Changqing, and dragged him out.
A moment later, banging sounds and screams came from the courtyard into the lobby.
After a moment of silence, Jin Wu's vanguard Chu Jun stood up and said, "Master Li, I have established Wei. If you have anything to do, just tell me. What are you doing by calling us here?"
Li Banghua smiled and said: "What, what I just said was not straightforward enough? Or do you really not understand?"
"Master Li, are you serious? Do you know how much trouble this will cause His Majesty?"
"Hahaha……"
Listening to Chu Jun's words, Li Banghua laughed heartily. Everyone was so confused that they wanted to rush up and slap him.
"How much trouble can it cause?"
"After going to court today, all the ministers have been trapped in the Huangji Palace by His Majesty. It is estimated that they will not appear within three days."
"Wang Tiqian and Li Yongzhen, the ceremonial supervisors, have been sent to imperial prison. Liu Yingkun, the royal horse supervisor, has been killed, and all their subordinates have been sent to imperial prison."
"The commander of Wu Xiang's right guard, Zhou Bin, and his subordinates have been killed."
"Among the Jinyi Guards, Li Ruolian, Wang Guoxing, Wu Mengming, Gao Wencai and others have already pledged their allegiance to Your Majesty. The remaining group of people are probably surrounded by the Tengxiang Four Guards at this moment."
"Wei Zhongxian is in the capital camp with six thousand internal troops. Now that he has entered the capital camp, do you think he can still come out?"
"The white-pole soldiers will enter the city tomorrow morning. What trouble do you think I can cause?"
Li Banghua's words shocked everyone so much that three souls came out of their bodies, seven souls ascended to heaven, and everyone was in a daze.
After a cup of tea, Li Banghua suddenly slammed the table and shouted: "Wei Zhongxian is finished. I don't care about the bad things you did before, and your Majesty doesn't care about it either.
But the premise is that you cooperate to uncover Wei Zhongxian’s people lurking among you.
You are the emperor's personal soldiers, and your allegiance is to His Majesty. Have you forgotten your mission?
As soldiers, your duty is to protect the people, but look at what happened to the Ming Dynasty due to Wei Zhongxian's disaster?
Now that the Ming Dynasty is in turmoil, Your Majesty wants to quell the party strife and revive the Ming Dynasty. As the most elite soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, your Majesty's confidants are not facing your Majesty, so what are you waiting for? "
"I know that you are afraid of reporting others and worrying that someone will cause trouble for you, so I will not make it difficult for you."
"Come here, bring the things you have prepared to your lords."
Several people came in with trays containing pens, inks, paper, inkstones, and official titles, and placed them in front of the commanders.
"I will give you a quarter of an hour to report the other party. If you still haven't given an explanation after a quarter of an hour, then don't blame me for being ruthless. Do you really think that Jin Yiwei can't find out?"
"The opportunity has been given to you, it depends on whether you can seize it."
After Li Banghua finished speaking, he drank the tea by himself.
The twenty commanders in the hall all looked at each other in confusion. After a moment of silence, a guard in Jinyi picked up the pen in front of him, pondered for a moment, and then began to write on the paper.
One person moved, and the others started writing too.
Listening to the movement, Li Banghua snorted in his heart.
The quarter of an hour came quickly. Li Banghua waved his hand, and the people waiting behind him walked down the hall and took back the official titles in the hands of the commanders.
"Okay, everyone is going to have a rest. Apart from the fact that you are not allowed to leave the military headquarters, feel free to do anything else. I would like to remind you not to joke about your future or your family."
After Li Banghua finished speaking, he patted his thick official seal, turned around and walked outside.
Half an hour later, Li Banghua appeared in Dongnuan Pavilion and handed the official title to Chongzhen.
After another half an hour, the contents of the reports from the twenty commanders were summarized. Chongzhen looked at the summarized information and took a sharp photo of the dragon case, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
"If you eat the emperor's salary but are not loyal to the emperor, you should be killed!"
According to the compiled information, among the 21 personal guards, there are a total of more than 300 generals above the general banner, including three commanders, seven commanders, thirteen commanders, and four governors...
Basically, there are people in every guard who have taken refuge in Wei Zhongxian. The breadth of his reach is simply shocking.
"Your Majesty, please issue an order. I will lead people to confiscate the homes of these people and exterminate them as a warning to others."
Chongzhen waved his hand: "Don't worry, each of these generals has his own confidants, and the total number is estimated to be thousands of people. Now it is easy to cause turmoil. We will wait until Fang Zhenghua takes care of the other armed forces in the city."
After waiting for another half an hour, Fang Zhenghua came back.
"Your Majesty, I arrived at the camp of the Nei Cao Army and conveyed your Majesty's decree. The remaining part of the Nei Cao Army surrendered.
I ordered them to surrender their weapons, put all the generals above the general banner under separate supervision, and ordered everyone to be prohibited from entering or exiting the camp. With Teng Xiang's right guard watching, there would be absolutely no problem. "
"pretty!"
Chongzhen stood up suddenly. The armed force he was most worried about had finally been taken down. Now it was time to take down Wei Zhongxian.
"Fang Zhenghua, send the news to the British public and ask them to prepare to take action and make sure to minimize the losses!"
