Chapter 72 Candidates for the Commander of the Royal Guards

On the arrow tower on the outer city wall, Mangui personally sat in charge. Most of his elite servants were assigned to this city wall, supervising the ordinary soldiers to carry the city defense equipment and stand ready.

Seeing such a large amount of labor and effort, but no sign of Jianlu outside the city, all the soldiers were a little dissatisfied with Mangui for working so hard. However, their focus was mostly on the emperor and civil and military officials behind them, and they all wondered what they were doing here.

"What are you mumbling about? Why don't you hurry up and start working?" The servants on the side scolded from time to time, and some would explain the reason, "The commander-in-chief said, the emperor has sent an order, and Jianlu troops are about to arrive. Please behave well and let me Those civil and military officials, look at what you can do!"

When he said this, even these servants didn't really believe it. The city gate was always closed, and the emperor was inside the palace. How did he know that Jianlu was about to arrive, so why should he come to Deshengmen?

Just when these soldiers or the civil and military officials were muttering suspicions, the soldiers in charge of the lookout on the archery tower suddenly sounded the alarm gong, and the sound of "clang, clang, clang" rang rapidly.

"What's going on? Is it time to eat?" When an uninformed official heard this, he couldn't help but touch his belly and asked in anticipation.

When the official next to him heard this, he looked down upon it and then explained seriously: "This is a police gong. Doesn't it mean that he really came to build an army of prisoners?"

After a while, all the officials knew about it and couldn't help but be very surprised. They all looked up at Hu Guang's position on the top of the archery tower, wondering whether the emperor had a miraculous plan or a foresight? However, most of these scholar-officials did not believe in God, and they secretly concluded that the emperor had powerful sources of information. When they thought about it, they first thought of the factory guard, and they were a little frightened.

No wonder the emperor has become so powerful in the past few days. The factory guards must be spying on the news again, letting the emperor know everything about the outside world!

The soldiers on the outer city wall, whether they were soldiers or servants, were all staring at the billowing smoke and dust in the distance. It was a large army, or at least there were many traces of cavalry marching. This means that the emperor is right!

These people didn't think much about it, and for a moment, they were all in awe of the emperor. Your Majesty is truly the destined one. With the help of gods, you can figure out the traces of Jianlu!

"Ding, achievement value +2, from Civilian A!"

"Ding, achievement value +2, from General B!"

"Ding, achievement value +1, from Soldier C!"

"..."

The system's prompts sounded continuously with the appearance of Jianlu, making Hu Guang couldn't help but glance at the civil and military officials below, and couldn't help but curse in his heart: This group of ungrateful people, he had been impassioned in the palace for a long time, but he didn't. How many achievement points have been gained? Let Jianlu scare them and contribute so many achievement points at once. It seems that they really need to deal with it!

Then he thought about it again and couldn't help but remind himself again. From now on, I can't be self-reliant, I have to let people go crazy, no, no, no, this doesn't sound good. In the future, I have to go out to the masses. The more people, the better. When you show your best side in this way, you won’t have to worry about achievement points!

Hu Guang thought this way, and the system prompts were almost gone. He looked at the lower left corner of the chat group and found that the achievement value had increased to 2453.

Not bad, very good! He was immediately happy. With so many achievement points, he could invite a few more people into the chat group to try. For those people in the elementary group, even if they know their identities, they can be recruited into the working group without fear of being unable to support them.

Thinking of this, he looked at the group again and found another message, so he clicked on Liu Xingzuo's message first.

"Your Majesty, the general has informed Mr. Sun Ge. He stayed out of Shanhaiguan for many nights. The general probably went to inquire about the military situation and verify the news!"

Hu Guang nodded after hearing this and told Liu Xingzuo: "Yes, today I killed Luo Yangxing, the commander of the Jinyi Guards. I will keep his position for you. When the Jianlu troops retreat, you can come to the capital to take up the post."

When Liu Xingzuo heard this, he suspected that he had heard wrongly. You must know that the commander of Jinyiwei is the commander of the emperor's most trusted army. In other words, this commander can only be held by the person whom the emperor trusts most. How virtuous and capable I am to have the emperor trust me so much!

He was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the general...the general comes from a rough background and has done wrong things. This...the position of commander of the Jinyi Guards, the general deserves it..."

Hearing this, Hu Guang couldn't help but laugh and said: "Don't worry, Liu Qing. From now on, I will not look at the family, but only based on their ability and performance. I can understand that you were forced to do something wrong by corrupt officials. Then You woke up, abandoned the darkness and turned to the light. Not only did you send military intelligence out many times, but you also tried every possible means. It can even be said that you went through all kinds of difficulties and dangers before returning to the Ming Dynasty. This thought alone is enough to prove you. At least in my opinion, you have a better character than Luo. It’s much better for people who eat the king’s salary but fail the king!”

In the Shanhaiguan wing, Liu Xingxian once again found his brother crying silently. This time, because he had learned from the past, he did not dare to complain. He just sat in front of Liu Xingzuo and stared at his brother's face with suspicion, as if trying to spot some flowers.

"The last general...the last one will ruin his heart and mind, and will never disappoint His Majesty's trust!" Liu Xingzuo thought of the frightening past events in the past, and never expected that he would be understood and affirmed by the Ming Emperor. No matter how deep the palace was, he could not restrain his emotions and was extremely excited. replied.

Who said that being an undercover agent would lead to a tragic ending? From now on, my subordinates must be kind to them. Hu Guang thought this, and said with a somewhat happy tone: "Liu Qing remember, after you become the commander of the Jinyi Guards, don't imitate your predecessors. My expectation for you is to be my eyes and ears. You have experience, so you might as well Teach more Imperial Guards to monitor domestic public opinion and spy on the military situation of surrounding countries for me, do you understand?"

"The general understands!" Liu Xingzuo responded loudly in his mind. He did not find the task assigned by the emperor difficult and immediately expressed his stance.

Hu Guang nodded after hearing this, and then said in a slightly more serious tone: "I also killed Yuan Chonghuan today. You might as well find an opportunity to tell Mr. Sun Ge about this news in public and see how Shanhaiguan reacts?"

When Liu Xingzuo heard this, he was stunned. He did not expect that the previously powerful governor of Ji Liao would have been executed when Jianlu was still in the capital. Isn't the emperor afraid that Guan Ning's army will cause trouble?

As soon as this thought came to his mind, he immediately remembered that the emperor was not afraid of Guan Ning's army causing trouble before, and severely reprimanded Zu Dashou. Now that Sun Ge is here, I am still afraid that Guan Ningjun will be able to overturn the world!

At this time, the emperor was heard explaining to Wen Tiren: "Wen Qing, please convey to Liu Qing the crimes of Luo Yangxing and Yuan Chonghuan."
