There is a phenomenon of father and son in the Chinese officialdom, with superiors like fathers and subordinates like sons, and there seems to be inheritance between "father and sons". When Xia Yan was in power, the people he used were all strong, fierce, brave, and Yan Song advancing the country, the people he used were all gentle, charming, clever and slander.

In the 29th year of Jiajing, Altan was indeed invaded. Seeing Hu horses coming overwhelmingly, Qiu Luan, who became the general of Datong under Yan Song's promotion, was so scared that he was shattered and did not dare to fight. He used to bribe Yan Song to become an official again. In his thinking mode, since the bribery method could prevent Yan Song from being defeated, most of them would be defeated, and he would give Altan money to Altan, begging him not to infringe on Datong, "Go to another border."

The commander of the Jinyiwei spread the news secretly to Beijing. Lu Bing was very happy to see it and knew that Qiu Luan had fallen into his hands from now on. Li Yanzhi was furious when he saw it. It was not that he didn't know the darkness of the officialdom, but that he could not help but feel angry when he saw Qiu Luan being so shameless. It was because of this fire that he was different from Yan Song, Lu Bing and others.

However, Lu Bing gave Li Yan a private look, so Li Yanzhi could not take it out publicly. He advised Lao Taishan to report the report to the emperor immediately, but Lu Bing stared at him: "What a joke!"

Reporting this news to the emperor may be beneficial to the country, but it is not good for him.

Li Yan tried his best to speak out, but he couldn't tell his father-in-law, so he secretly came to see Xu Jie and told Xu Jie about the matter. With the interests of Chen Ming, Xu Jie said in surprise: "Then you have to prepare for this matter!" He hurriedly submitted a memorial to Jiajing, saying that Hu Ma had harassed Datong and was likely to rage other places, so he asked the emperor to quickly issue an order to prevent it.

Of course, he did not clearly point out that the news came from Lu Bing's investigation. Although this would make his memorial seem inconvincing, he could not make it clear, because it would pull Lu Bing into the water (it would not report it if it was known), and then he also pulled Li Yanzhi into the water (using Lu Bing's son-in-law to obtain information from the Jinyiwei was off-duty). In the face of external troubles, Xu Jie did not want to trigger a political dispute with Lu Bing first. Besides, even if he mentioned it, Lu Bing would definitely deny it. At that time, it would not only be useless, but also harmful.

After the memorial was uploaded, Jiajing did not react at all and continued to practice his Tao and refine his pills. Xu Jie, a cabinet minister and the Minister of Rites who held real power, knew that Hu Ma went south, but he could only wait for the situation to continue to deteriorate and was helpless, let alone Li Yanzhi, a grassroots cadre in the Ministry of War.

Almost at the same time, Altan accepted Qiu Luan's bribes, but Qiu Luan's gifts were just a snack for him, and it was his personal snack. The hundreds of thousands of brothers under him had to have dinner. On the grassland behind him, there were even hundreds of thousands of herders' wives and children waiting for her husband, brother, and son to bring the spoils back! Qiu Luan's bribes were obviously not enough to ask them to withdraw their troops, so the smart Qiu Luan did not make a request to "retreat the army", but asked Altan to "go to another border". But what Qiu Luan didn't expect was that Altan went directly to Beijing City when he went there!

Hu horses went east along the Great Wall to Gubeikou! The commander of the capital, Wang Ruxian, led his troops to resist, and Altan was also an expert in using troops. He did not attack forcefully, but sent other elite troops to break in from the festering section of the Huangyugou Great Wall and attacked from behind Gubeikou. The Ming army suddenly saw that Hu people came from behind and were attacked from behind. They were not sure whether there was a major change in the rear. They immediately collapsed, Gubeikou fell, and the Gyeonggi area immediately opened the door to Huma!

Altan immediately led a large army to invade Huairou, attack Shunyi, and headed for Tongzhou, divided his troops to plunder Changping, and war broke out everywhere around Beijing, and 100,000 Hu people jumped onto Yanshan Mountain! The capital was in a hurry!

The emperor was panicked, the chief minister was stunned, and the Minister of War was in chaos!

Jiajing did not expect things to evolve to this point at first!

The little eunuch in the palace ran to the top of the city and looked around. When he saw Feng Chen Feiyang, he was so scared that he returned to the palace and shouted, "Your Majesty is not good! The Mongols are killed at the city!" Jiajing's face showed an extremely frightened expression. The Hu people were afraid of the good generals on the border, such as Zeng Xian, Weng Wanda, Zeng Xian and Weng Wanda were controlled by the chief assistant of the dynasty, such as Xia Yan, Yan Song, and Xia Yan and Yan Song were controlled by Jiajing, but Jiajing was afraid of the Hu people! He firmly controlled the emperor's power, so that officials and officials of all sizes dared not ignore him, but the political system of the Ming Dynasty and his imperial skills could not have an effect on the Hu people!

"Stop!" Jiajing was furious and pointed at the little eunuch and said, "Damn it, kill it!" Then a deacon and eunuch dragged the little eunuch down and beat it to death!

But Jiajing can kill ten thousand eunuchs, but he can't kill a Hu man!

What to do? What to do? What to do?

"Cabinet, cabinet! Xuan Yansong, and Xu Jie!"

Yan Song knew that the news was much earlier than Jiajing. When the enemy appeared in Gubeikou, he hid it and did not report to Jiajing. He thought maybe Altan could not defeat Gubeikou. He may have no theoretical basis, but just his hope. Li Yanzhi struggled to understand how a person with high IQ like Yan Song could "hope" Hu Ma retreated so mentally in this situation, but Yan Song was such a person. Moreover, Yan Song was not the only such person in the ages. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, high-ranking officials like Yan Song who were extremely smart in internal fighting and mentally retarded in external fighting were everywhere! This is really a strange and sighing phenomenon.

It was not until Gubeikou fell that Yan Song realized that the big thing was not good. At first, he wanted to hide it, but after Huairou was anxious, he knew that he could not hide it!

"Ministry of War, Ministry of War! What is the Ministry of War doing!" Yan Song roared angrily!

What is the Ministry of War doing? The Ministry of War is busy.

What is the Ministry of War busy with? Ding Rukui, the Minister of War, didn’t know.

"Grand Marshal!" Li Yan went up and reminded: "Select the Nine Gates to be on guard! Order Shuntian to inspect the Censor outside the city! Issuing an order to serve the king to call on the troops from all over the world to enter the capital to serve the king!"

He did not first talk to the king and then report to Ding Rukui to Ding Rukui - this is a normal procedure, but in this messy time, who cares about this dizzy procedure! The king didn't blame him for going to school, and Ding Rukui even woke up and hurriedly gave an order!

Fortunately, there were many strong men who knew military tactics hidden among the scholars of the Ming Dynasty. Wang Jun, the inspector of Shuntian, was one of them. He didn't have many troops who could fight against the Mongols in field battles, but he did something immediately: he was ahead of the Mongols and moved all the ships from the other shore to the other shore. After the Mongol vanguard arrived here, there was no ship to cross for a while, and the road ahead was blocked, so he had to temporarily turn elsewhere to rob. Wang Jun's administrative measures bought some time for the garrison work of the capital.

When Wang Jun was busy outside the city, the palace had issued an order, and the Censor Shang Dajie led his troops to defend the city. The Censor was the head of the Censor, the second rank, and was the chief of the Inspectorate of the State Supervision Organs. His status was in line with the Secretary of the Six Ministers. In the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty often used the Censor to command troops and supervise the army. Since the Censor was ordered to lead troops to defend the city, his status was equivalent to that of the marshal of this defensive battle in the capital.

Li Yanzhi also transferred his subordinates to Shang Dajie with Ding Rukui's recommendation, but his position was still in the Ministry of War. When the troops were at the city, they followed the power and the personnel appointments came very quickly. Li Yanzhi was on duty in the Ministry of War in the morning and ran to meet Shang Dajie in the afternoon.

Although Shang Dajie did not understand military affairs, fortunately he could listen to others. He brought several new and old subordinates, including Li Yanzhi, and hurriedly mobilized the Beijing army. Li Yan held Ding Rukui's account of the Beijing army and ordered soldiers and generals. It would be fine if he didn't. This made the foundation of the Beijing army leak!

In the Ming Dynasty, the "Guizhou system" was implemented, and the military was hereditary, and the military was established, and the military was established, and the military was both established, and the military was equipped with both the garrison and the guard system was huge and complex. It was divided into the "personal army guards" and the "Five Army Governor's Office" directly under the emperor. After the middle period, the military power was greatly subscribed to the Ministry of War, so the power of the Ming Dynasty was the first of all dynasties, which was comparable to the Privy Council of the Song Dynasty.

According to the establishment stipulated by the court, the Beijing army camps should have 140,000 to 50,000 people, and so many names in the book, but this is a matter of Shang Da Festival, and I found that there were only 40,000 to 50,000 people!

It turns out that since Emperor Wuzong, the generals of the Beijing Army had too many empty salary, and the list was all empty! Only names and no soldiers were given, and the salary issued by the imperial court was all in the pockets of the generals. Therefore, Li Yanzhi asked to investigate the registration of the Beijing Army that day, but he was unanimously hated by the generals of the Beijing Army!

As an inspector, Shang Dajie actually understands this kind of trick in the officialdom, but at the moment when things are about to come, they can't help but shout corruption! However, 40,000 to 50,000 is better than not. He hurriedly parades the military parade. After reading it, Shang Dajie almost fell off the general platform. On the battlefield, he saw piles of old, weak, sick and disabled people crowded on the battlefield, some shivered, some shivered, some cried, and some shivered. It turned out that the capital had been in peace for a long time. Kings, princes, officials and generals in command all regarded military households as free migrant workers. Not only did they not train normally, they even deducted their military pay. So over time, anyone with some ability in the military households would not find a way out, leaving only a bunch of poor and powerless people. How could this be like an army?

Li Yanzhi was used to these scenes when he was in the southeast and was mentally prepared, but the tragic situation of the Beijing army was still beyond his expectations. He sighed and said to Shang Dajie: "Zhongxian, these people cannot be used! Even if the number of troops is enough, there are really 150,000 people. When they arrive on the battlefield, they are just waiting to be killed!"

The censor was called Xiantai in ancient times. Shang Dajie led the army with the left censor, so Li Yanzhi called him the General Constitution.

Shang Dajie was also helpless and said, "If so, what should I do?"

"If there is no one in the court, please go to the wild!" Li Yan said directly: "The capital has a population of one million, and there must be strong people in it. If you control it with military tactics, you may respond to changes every day."

Shang Dajie thought for a while and said, "You have to discuss this with the Grand Sima. You should go back to the Ministry of War to ask for your order first. If you are allowed there, just do your best. I will do my best here!"

When Li Yanzhi left the camp, Shang Dajie had already made a generous oath. However, Li Yanzhi knew that this was a helpless effort, which might inspire morale, but could not change the fact that the Beijing army could not stand the battle. He rushed to the Ministry of War and reported the situation to Ding Rukui. Ding Rukui was heartbroken and had no good laws to respond. Li Yanzhi talked about his strategy again, and Ding Rukui said: "When you are in a hurry, where can you find a strong person?"

Li Yan said straight: "I have thoughts on the way to the Ministry of War! Generally speaking, where there are dense populations, there must be troublemakers, and among the troublemakers, there must be brave people who are not afraid of death! If these people are qualified to be a law, they can be a front guard! A town of ten houses must be loyal and brave, and the people in the capital can also be mobilized, and those with courage and strength are better. Also, now when it comes to the Martial Arts, they can pass the provincial examination and enter Beijing to participate in the Martial Arts Examination, and there must be generals and talents. The officials thought that they could choose generals from the Martial Arts Examination and use them to rule the heroes of the martial arts Examination. They may be used for the time being."

To put it simply, this strategy is to select officers from the military scholars and find the source of soldiers from the underworld and the market! Ding Rukui immediately agreed and gave him the documents to make him cheap.

Li Yanzhi first sent someone to call Mr. Zhang from Lu Bing's mansion to ask the Jinyiwei to notify the sects of various sects in the capital. He said that when the imperial court hired people, all warriors who were willing to serve the country could take the opportunity to serve, and hinted that they could take this opportunity to cleanse themselves and embark on the right path. He also asked the Shuntian Prefecture Office to post a notice: Any civilian with the courage to resist Hu in the capital can also be on standby in the Xizhimen Wengcheng. Li Yanzhi also thought about letting Lu Bing send out Jinyiwei, but Jinyiwei was good at hunting and spying. Although the reputation was great and the number of people was large, it was just a powerful tool for internal rule and was useless when fighting outside, so it would be fine after this thought flashed.

While the Jinyiwei released the rumor of the wind, Li Yanzhi held the order to summon the martial arts soldiers of the capital. At this time, he had no time to test them one by one, so he shouted: "Now that Hu Ma Nan invaded, there is a very dangerous thing in the court that the court has to do in several places! This thing has been done and is famous for all ages! But more than half of them are afraid that they will die! Those who dare to accept the orders should take two steps forward!"

Kong Kong Kong Kong Kong - but hundreds of footsteps sounded at the same time. Ninety percent of the sirens not only did not move forward, but ran backward! Everyone came to participate in the martial arts examination to find a good background and to live a good life in the future, not to die! But there were still fifty or sixty people taking a step forward! The two types of people have always been forward and backward, and immediately opened a very big distance!

Seeing that there were fifty people leaving the list, Li Yanzhi was overjoyed and immediately dispatched all the retreating or unmoving candidates to the top of the city. He guarded everywhere outside the city, but left these fifty people as officers. He briefly explained his thoughts to these people on the way.

When I arrived at Xizhimen Wengcheng, I saw thousands of people gathering! Li Yan said happily: "There are indeed many brave people in the capital!" In fact, Beijing has a population of millions, and thousands of brave people have come, which is not a large proportion.

But there was a five-president who came out and said, "Even if these people are, I'm afraid that nineteen will be useless! I need to choose again! One of them ten times, leaving four or five hundred people, it's almost done."

Li Yan glanced at the Wu Juzi and smiled and said, "You are more picky than me. How do you tell me how to choose? It's simpler, and it's something that everyone can do when they hear it. There's not much time now!"

The Wu Juzi spoke a few words and then said the method of choosing and eliminating. Li Yan was shocked and looked him left and right, up and down, and asked, "What's your name?"

The Wu Juzi bowed and replied: "Student Qi Jiguang!"

—————

I think this volume is pretty good, and I seem to have grasped the atmosphere at the starting point. If I had known that I would have moved this volume to the beginning, this book would probably not have been so disappointing.

Perhaps some smart authors had long been cold when the book was so miserable as Lu Hai, but A Pu still foolishly tried his best to write the back.

No matter what, please support it. Monthly tickets, or advertising for A Pu. Of course, what I hope most is that subscriptions can improve, but you need to attract new subscribers, because old readers probably have done their best. If you write a book at Qidian, you still have to look at the early stage. It seems that there is no possibility of turning the world back after the effort, so I sigh. But I will not give up!

You won’t give up until the Yellow River! You won’t give up even when the Yellow River is here!

A few days ago, everyone ignore the nagging I had in the book review area. I will get out of the trough, I believe!

The above nonsense is beyond the 4,000 words and does not occupy the starting point coin. (To be continued. If you want to know what happens next, please log in. There are more chapters, support the author and support genuine reading!) (To be continued)
Chapter completed!
