Chapter 198 Entering the City
These people in the Wuying Hall were all the emperor's confidants, so naturally they knew something about the emperor's style of speaking and doing things, so they were all surprised when they heard it, and they quickly bowed and responded in unison.
Hu Guang glanced at them, and felt a little proud in his heart. He was afraid that no one would see through his plan.
Thinking this, he said with a hint of excitement: "I will issue a decree saying that there are too many royal troops outside the city, so I will only order those with official positions above Xiaoqi..."
When Hu Guang finished speaking, the courtiers below couldn't help but feel dumbfounded. Your Majesty has already planned this, one game after another. According to His Majesty's method, it seems to be a logical matter, and it will be solved naturally!
Hu Guang saw that none of the ministers answered and seemed dumbfounded. He couldn't help but ask, "How?"
When he asked this question, the ministers immediately came to their senses, bowed together, and respectfully echoed: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Upon hearing this, Hu Guang knew that they approved his plan. He was happy and waved his hand and said: "I don't want to hear this. You are all my ministers. Please help me think about it and improve this plan!"
These people are all the elites of the Ming Dynasty, and their brains are naturally top-notch. With Hu Guang's plan as the skeleton, it will naturally be much easier to make repairs. They also secretly competed with each other in front of the emperor. Immediately, you and I talked, and then supplemented and improved, and a final plan was formed.
At this time, it was almost dusk. After the meeting, the group of people started to prepare separately.
As usual, when night falls, martial law begins in the capital, and ordinary people are not allowed to take to the streets. The entire capital suddenly fell silent, except for the Ming Dynasty Martyrs' Hall, which was being built in Tiananmen Square and was still being worked on in full swing overnight.
At dawn the next day, an imperial edict was spread to various camps outside the city, immediately making the soldiers in all the camps outside the city excited. Of course, Lu Xiangsheng's Qinwang army, which had arrived before, was better, because they already knew about it.
Inside the capital, notices were plastered all over the streets and alleys, and every household was being notified door to door. Suddenly, the capital became lively, and every household went to various grain exchange points to get more grain.
In the study room of Han Mansion, Han Xu heard the report from his servant and couldn't help but secretly praise himself for his foresight. Although Ma Shilong failed to appease the old and weak in Zunhua, he was defeated by Guan Ningjun. But under the current situation, the emperor was obviously frightened by Jianlu's entry into the pass, so he took it seriously. This time, in terms of rewards based on merit, Ma Shilong and the crown prince Shaobao should be the minimum!
On his side, Fan Yongdou has done well. He is indeed a man who can do big business. He is smart! Once the food they send arrives, I can definitely win back the Sacred Heart if I deliver it to them.
Han Xu was thinking this, but he became a little anxious. He thought about it, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Come on, sharpen the ink, I want to write a memorial!"
It seems that the New Year is coming in three days. Although His Majesty has decreed that the New Year will not be held this year because of the mess in the capital, and there must be no extravagance or waste in saving food. But for the people of Ming Dynasty, this time point is still very important. If you finish it before the New Year, you will be able to feel better during the New Year.
Early the next morning, although it was already dawn, the martial law in the capital was still there, and men and horses from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division were standing guard in unimportant places.
Near the city gate and on the main street leading to the Forbidden City, including between the Qinwang Army camps outside the city and all the way to the city gate, the men and horses of the Royal Horse Supervisor enforce martial law.
What is a little different from the previous martial law is that although these Royal Horse Guards are still equipped with weapons, they are dressed in bright military uniforms that are only worn when serving the Holy Driver. There is no trace of nervousness on everyone's face, but a trace of excitement, or And happy.
In the various camps of the King's Army, the soldiers on guard duty looked at the Royal Horse Guards and horses outside. When martial law separated passages leading to the capital city, they did not feel any nervousness. Instead, they felt more expectant, and Same excitement.
After daybreak, the officials of the Ministry of War, escorted by the captain of the Imperial Guard, rode along the passages on horseback to various military camps to convey the imperial edict.
So not long after, the commander-in-chief of each battalion led those with official positions above Dusi out of the camp. These generals are either in imperial robes with scarlet robes painted with lions or with scarlet robes painted with tigers and leopards. They are almost all in scarlet robes.
At the front of the whole queue, there is a court uniform embroidered with blue and white pheasants. He is alone, which makes him look very special, and he feels a bit like he stands out from the crowd.
But no one had any objections. After all, he was a civil servant and was naturally one step ahead of their military commanders. Even Ma Shilong was still a military commander and would still be outclassed by the civil servants.
The most important thing is that he has made real contributions in this war, and it is unlikely that anyone in his place would be better than him.
When the officials of the Ministry of War saw that it was almost done, they led the way and led the generals who left the camp into the city in the order arranged in advance.
Lu Xiangsheng rode at the front with his head held high and his expression slightly excited. Today is the day to reward merits. According to what the emperor said before, he will patrol Denglai as the censor of Zuodu. Although he already knew the result, he was still excited that he could be of real use.
Behind Lu Xiangsheng were the generals of Guan Ning's army. Because they participated in the Battle of Changli, regardless of whether they picked peaches in the end, they finally won the battle and appeased the old and weak, so they were arranged to enter the city second.
Surrounded by He Kegang, Cao Wenzhao and other generals, Zu Dashou looked up at the wall of the capital not far away with complicated emotions.
Just at the beginning of the month, he had led the army to fight here. But suddenly he became confused and led the army back to Shanhaiguan. Otherwise, Mangui's position as a reckless man must be his own. Fortunately, now, he has made great contributions in the defense of the capital and has become the temporary commander-in-chief of the capital camp. This time, the merits will be judged according to the time of the Yingzong. It is possible that Mangui will be awarded a title. This is the ultimate goal of all generals. , I missed it just like that!
But at the same time, he was secretly glad that thanks to the guidance and care of Mr. Sun Ge, he had the opportunity to make up for his mistakes. When he came this time, the elder Ge told him again, saying that the emperor was different from the past, so he must not have other thoughts and be loyal to the emperor and serve the country. Otherwise, he would not be able to protect himself if he committed another crime in the future!
Zu Dashou thought in his heart. Seeing the city gate getting closer and closer, he gathered his thoughts and became solemn with his chest puffed out.
Behind Guan Ningjun was Ma Shilong. Not only was Ma Shilong dissatisfied with this sequence of arrangements, but so were his subordinates. The man who was given the Shang Fang Sword by the Emperor and the Prime Minister Qin Wang's army was actually walking behind Guan Ning's army!
However, Ma Shilong remembered Han Xu's secret explanation and that he was a scheming person, so he suppressed his dissatisfaction. But at the same time, he also made a good plan, and when he got to the imperial court, he would also have something to say about his achievements!
