Dominate Marvel

Ying Yi took Er Niu to avoid the patrol and sent him out of the city without leaving a trace. Then he came to the city without stopping and asked three hundred household officials and ten general flag officers to be called in front of him.

Of these three officials from hundreds of households, two were sons of Zheng Yunzhi's family, and both had the surname Zheng. One was named Zheng Liu and the other was named Zheng Jiu. There is only one left, the hunter who Zheng Yunzhi said before, who told him about the treasure land in Fangcheng Mountain.

There are 4,000 households in Ye County, with a population of more than 20,000. It is not an easy task for so many people to move to the mountains. The biggest difficulty is that there is no place to stay in the barren mountains. And this hunter Zhang Shi provided Zheng Yunzhi with conditions when he needed it most.

Therefore, he was promoted exceptionally and became an official of hundreds of households. Even if he is illiterate.

Among the other ten general flag officers, including Zhou Li and Lian Biao, only one old man from the Luyang Guard Qianhu Station is left, and the others are newly recruited and promoted.

Zheng Liu and Zheng Jiu have very similar faces, but they are twin brothers. Both of them are tall and thick, and they look a bit thicker than Zheng Wu. But his brain is not as flexible as Zheng Wu's. Zhang Shi is a short, stocky man with an honest face and slightly dark skin.

As for the officials of the Hundred Households, except for the one left over from the Thousand Households of Luyang, the others are all sons of good families in the local area.

Their mental outlook is very good.

Even the old man from Luyang Qianhu Office is also an honest and honest person. Otherwise, with Zheng Yunzhi's methods, if he was a slick and dirty person, he would have been kidnapped long ago.

Zheng Yunzhi established these five hundred households not just for show, but with some ambition. As a person within the system, Zheng Yunzhi certainly knew about the corruption of the guard system and the corruption within it. Therefore, due to Zheng Yunzhi's efforts, this team is completely different from other guardsmen who have become corrupted and decadent.

The soldiers were all local young men from good families, while the officers were headed by Zheng Yunzhi's sons. It can be said to be firmly in control.

"According to the order of the county magistrate." Ying Yi said seriously: "There is something important tonight, and we need to allocate two hundred households. Zhou Li, Lian Biao, you and I belong to one hundred households. Who is willing to do it for the other one? "

Zheng Liu and Zheng Jiu looked at each other. Zheng Liu cupped his fists and said, "My subordinate is willing."

Ying Yi nodded without hesitation: "Then it's up to you."

Then he said: "Others will take turns to patrol as usual, and there must be no mistakes. With two hundred households missing, manpower may be a bit tight. Please bear with me tonight, brothers."

Then Ying Yi gathered with two hundred households.

Ying Yi said: "Zheng Baihu, fellow flag officers, I need fifty wooden boxes and twenty chariots and horses. Zhou Li and Lian Biao, you two take the men of this hundred households to prepare the wooden boxes. At this time, It must be done before!, remember, the wooden box cannot be perfunctory.”

"Yes, Baihu!"

Zhou Li and Lian Biao took people away.

Ying Yi said to Zheng Liu again: "Leave the matter of twenty chariots and horses to Brother Zheng."

Zheng Liu said cheerfully: "Brother Ying, don't worry, I, Old Zheng, will not delay anything."

Half an hour before midnight, the wooden boxes, carriages and horses were all ready. Wooden boxes are placed on top of the carriage and horses, two wooden boxes are placed on top of each other, and three wooden boxes are placed on each carriage and horse. At midnight, Liu Yun arrived.

Ying Yi nodded to him, pressed his knife and shouted: "Open the city gate."

Under the torch, the city gate creaked open, and Ying Yi waved his hand: "Get out of the city."

After saying that, he got on a draft horse, grabbed the reins, turned to Liu Yun who was also on the horse and said: "Mr. Liu Qi, please."

A group of more than 200 people and 20 chariots and horses quickly left the city gate. Ying Yi turned around and saw Zheng Yunzhi looking out from the top of the city.

Ying Yi hugged his fists on the horse and shouted, and the group of people gradually disappeared into the darkness.

Zheng Yunzhi watched them disappear into the dark night, a look of worry flashed across his face, and he went down the city wall and returned to the city.

...

Ying Yi and Liu Yun rode in parallel, with Zheng Liu behind to hold down the formation. Two hundred households, one on the left and one on the right, protected the carriage and horses as they moved forward. Because the wooden box is empty, the speed is not slow. Although the night was dark, there was no risk of losing sight of the road along the official road.

Ying Yi can ride a horse, but he is not proficient in it. Fortunately, my body coordination is unparalleled, and riding becomes smoother and smoother.

"According to the current pace, we should be able to reach Erlang Mountain before dawn."

Liu Yun said: "Brother Ying's strategy is very good, and Lord Qianhu will definitely adopt it."

Ying Yi shook his head: "I hope so. News has been leaked here that hundreds of thousands of bandits are under your nose. To be honest, if there are bandits to intercept and kill them, and there are too many of them, I'm afraid things will be worrying."

Liu Yun smiled: "I heard that Brother Ying is invincible, and he was confident and heroic before. Why are you worried now?"

His words were gentle and not sarcastic.

Ying Yi smiled and said: "Although I think highly of myself, a hundred or a thousand people are nothing. But if tens of thousands of people come, if I can't kill the bandits as soon as possible, I can't guarantee safety. In front of Zheng County Zun, I can't moan and groan."

Liu Yun smiled and nodded: "It's impossible for tens of thousands of people."

Ying Yi said in surprise: "Can General Liu Qi be sure?"

Liu Yun smiled and said: "Don't forget who I am."

Ying Yi was startled, and then he suddenly realized: "Yes, Mr. Liu Qi is the emperor's personal guard, with eyes and ears all over the world. Do you know what's going on?"

Liu Yun said: "Brother Ying is involved here. There is no need to hide some things. We got some information from the bandits. After speculation, it was estimated that among the bandits, only General Hao Yaoqi knew about the military pay. The bandits are greedy in nature. Wu Du, if I were Hao Yaoqi, I would definitely not make any announcement, but would block the news and wait for it to be mined. If I can't make any announcement, then the tens of thousands of thieves under Hao Yaoqi's command cannot make any big noise. If he wants to intercept and kill him, he must only A small number of elites will be sent, never more than 5,000."

Ying Yi was surprised.

The reputation of Jinyiwei will still be heard hundreds of years later. At its peak, Tiqi was spread all over the world, with countless eyes and ears. Hundreds of years later, many people believed that at the end of the Ming Dynasty, when Chongzhen ascended the throne and overthrew Wei Zhongxian, he overcorrected and crippled Jinyiwei and Dongchang.

Among them, many ministers added fuel to the flames and blinded the emperor himself with his own hands.

Therefore, Chongzhen was repeatedly deceived and deceived by officials.

In Ying Yi's opinion, there were only three truly wise kings in the Ming Dynasty. The first is Taizu Zhu Hongwu, the second is Emperor Chengzu Yongle, and the third is Emperor Hongzhi. Apart from these three, the others all had shortcomings of one kind or another. For example, Emperor Jiajing did not go to court for decades. But the government is still under his control. This is not only because of his powerful imperial skills, but also because he has always firmly controlled the eyes and daggers of this country - Jin Yiwei and Dongchang.

The existence of these two institutions was the greatest deterrent to all officials of the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, he was tabooed by officials. After Chongzhen ascended the throne, he was too inexperienced and was fooled by some ministers. He was stunned and stupidly disabled his hands and eyes.

Ying Yi sometimes wonders, if Jinyiwei and Dongchang in Chongzhen's hands were still in their prime, would people like Li Zicheng have died inexplicably in his bed one night?
