278 All Hope (2 in 1)(1/2)

Faced with the question of why Chen Yichen did not treat him, Feng Zheng opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, just lowered his head and did not dare to look at Chen Yichen's gaze.

"Okay, don't you tell me, I will ask someone else."

Seeing Feng Zheng avoiding talking, Chen Yichen walked straight into a tent full of wounded people.

The area of ​​the tent is not large, and it is only about ten square meters in later units. But with this little space, more than a dozen wounded people squeezed into it, and there was no place to settle except the aisle.

The smell of blood, herbal, rotten smell, etc. is much stronger than what you smell outside.

At this moment, there was an old man in a blanket in the tent. When Chen Yichen, who was wearing official uniform came in, he stood there in surprise and even forgot about his basic salute.

The reason is that since the turmoil in Fujian at the end of last year, no official at the level of 1000 or above has personally visited the wounded in the tent, let alone the young man in front of him, he was also a civil servant!

The nobles and the military are inferior, and the military officers are unwilling to come to such a dirty place. How could the civil servants come in?

"Are you a doctor, this elder?"

Chen Yichen looked at the other party’s clothes and a medicine box on his back. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be the Doctor Suijun.

Hearing this question, the old man in the tent reacted and hurriedly saluted Chen Yichen and said, "The Caomin followed the military doctor Sun Shize, have seen the master!"

"Doctor Sun, don't need to be polite."

Chen Yichen waved his hand. In this case, he was not in the mood to care about red tape.

He asked instead: "Doctor Sun, how many wounded people are in the Three Guards of Fuzhou now? Have they had proper treatment?"

"Master, this...this..."

Sun Shize didn't know the other party's identity. Faced with such a difficult question, he didn't dare to answer at all, nor did he dare to refuse. He could only hesitate and wanted to pass by perfunctorily.

First, Feng Zheng avoided talking, but now Sun Shize evaded again. The tragic situation of the wounded was in front of him. Not to mention finding a person in charge, no one dared to tell the truth.

An indescribable sense of aggrievance hit Shen Yichen's heart. He said with anger: "The soldiers of the three guards of Fuzhou fought for the country. Even if they died, they would have to wear corpses on the battlefield, instead of dying in a humiliating manner on the straw mat like now!"

After saying that, Chen Yichen turned around and faced outside the tent. At this moment, the soldiers of the Three Guards of Fuzhou who heard the sound were already tightly blocked at the entrance of the tent, wanting to see what this strange civil servant who suddenly appeared was going to do.

After hearing Chen Yichen's words, many soldiers looked indignant.

That's right, my brothers and brothers fought for the country, but they did not die on the battlefield, but they were desperate to wait for death in this tent.

If I had known this, would it be possible to die in the country?

Looking at these curious and angry eyes, Chen Yichen said loudly: "I am the Grand Secretary of Zuo Chunfang, Chen Yichen, who is in charge of the military affairs of Fujian under the order of Your Majesty!"

"I don't know if you have heard of my name, but today I can tell you all the soldiers that under my rule, I will never let you be bullied and treated with humiliation. If you have any grievances and dissatisfaction, you can tell them all now!"

Chen Yichen didn't believe in a huge military camp, and no one dared to tell the truth to him.

The decisive words were passed to the ears of the tent sergeants, and they looked at Chen Yichen with an incredible look.

This kind of look is not because they don’t know who Chen Yichen is, but rather it is so thunderous!

But no one expected that the legendary top scholar who loved the people as much as his son and sympathized with the soldiers would suddenly appear in front of him.

"Does Chen Yichen, the Grand Secretary of Zuo Chunfang, refer to the top scholar?"

A soldier in a guard asked in an uncertain tone. After all, Zuo Chunfang and Grand Secretary, these official positions cannot be distinguished by any ignorant soldiers.

But everyone in the world knows the name "Zhuangsheng, Di Di and Chen Yichen"!

"Who can be there besides the throne master who can go to Fujian for military affairs and is also called Chen Yichen?"

"I have a distant relative from Shandong. His letter said that Admiral Chen helped the people and saved millions of lives!"

"It's not just about disaster relief and helping the people, but also my brothers from Huguang Dusi. I have heard that Admiral Chen really treats us, Qiu Ba, as people, and never insults and bullies his soldiers."

Why do literati pursue words and meritorious service? In addition to keeping famous in history, they also have contemporary reputations that are respected!

Even if these soldiers from the Three Guards of Fuzhou have never seen Chen Yichen, let alone serving under his command. However, the reputation of treating and respecting soldiers, providing disaster relief and helping the people and managing water is still passed down by word of mouth, and everyone in Fujian garrisons knows it.

This is what everyone hopes to achieve!

After confirming Chen Yichen's identity, a strong man with a scar on his face and a bearded face stood up and saluted to him, "Admiral Chen, the position is Meng Da, the commander of the left guard of Fuzhou, please ask the Admiral to take charge of our brothers!"

Seeing that someone finally stood up, Chen Yichen breathed a sigh of relief. He walked to Meng Da, held up the other party's arm and said, "If you have something to do, you can speak freely. I will definitely give you justice."

"Okay, I'm so proud of Admiral Chen!"

Meng Da knew very well what the consequences of telling the truth, but he was willing to bet his wealth and life on trust in Chen Yichen for the sake of his brothers and sisters in the army.

Even if you sacrifice your life, you can at least save more brothers' lives.

"I reported that Dou Yi, the commander of the Central Guard in Fuzhou, had his private pockets and deducted the military pay of the soldiers of the garrison. Many brothers' families could no longer be exposed."

"And Dou Yi is greedy for merit and proactive, resulting in the deaths and injuries of the three guards in Fuzhou several times. He also lacks herbs and cannot be treated. He can only wait for death in this shack with hatred!"

"If it weren't for the fact that there were still wives and children in the family, our brothers might have rebelled long ago!"

Originally, Meng Da reported to Dou Yi, the commander of the Central Guard in Fuzhou, and Feng Zheng and other officers of the garrison standing at the door, were quite prepared.

After all, Dou Yi, the commander of the guard, quelled the rebellion for more than half a year, was a rage for heaven and others. If he had not taken the line of the right governor of Fujian, Song Zhang and sent money to Wang Zhen in the capital together, he would have been impeached long ago.

But Meng Da finally said something more!

No matter whether you are angry or venting your words, how could you openly declare your rebellion in front of the imperial envoy?

This sentence made Feng Zheng's face change instantly. Chen Yichen would pursue the rebellion of the three guards in Fuzhou. The target of the rebellion will be not only the Fujian thief army, but also the group of soldiers in the garrison!

Although Meng Da was not very educated, he was not stupid. After he said it excitedly, he realized the seriousness of the problem.

The rebellion is not a trivial matter. Meng Da immediately knelt down and admitted his mistake to Chen Yichen: "I am humble and wronged, so please forgive me!"

Not only Meng Da knelt down and admitted his mistake, but the soldiers of the three guards of Fuzhou at the entrance of the tent also helped to plead, "Admiral, our brothers have no intention of rebelling. Meng said he was wrong!"

"Meng President has always been polite, so don't take the admiral to his heart!"

"I'll ask the Admiral to spare Mr. Meng this time!"

Listening to the overwhelming pleading, Chen Yichen set his sights on Meng Da. It can be seen that this person has a good prestige in the army and can gain the trust and support of the robes.

"Get up, you guys are right."

Chen Yichen replied calmly, not taking the rebellion seriously at all.

That's right?

Is this all right?

When many people heard Chen Yichen's words, they didn't believe their ears. If it were any civil servants of the Fujian Provincial Administration, Meng Dade would have been taken down on the spot.

Admiral Chen actually said that's right?

"The court is unfair, the superiors are unfair, and the treatment is unfair. Why are you wrong?"

"Feng Chenshi, Commander-in-Chief Dou Yi, who is here? Take my official over!"

If you want to restore morale to the soldiers of the Three Guards of Fujian to be completely convinced, relying solely on making contributions is not enough, and you must also have clear rewards and punishments.

Since Dou Yi is the culprit, he must bear the punishment he deserves and pay the price he deserves.

Establishing authority is not only about oppressing one way, but also about being content with complacency!

"Admiral, why not speak with one step?"

Feng Zheng had already seen that Chen Yichen was about to sue Dou Yi, but what the other party didn't know was that the big backer behind the commander was Wang Zhen.

This is why, all the people hesitated and did not dare to find out the truth, and they had to rely on Meng Da, the bottom of the class, to report it. Wang Zhenquan's power over the government and the opposition was no longer only in the capital, and local governments and garrisons were also very afraid.

"Chief Feng, now you are under the control of this official, and you should know what military orders are like a mountain!"

"I don't want to happen again in bargaining!"

There was a famous saying in later generations that soldiers took obeying orders as their duty, and this sentence was still applicable to the Ming Dynasty.

Feng Zheng avoided talking in front of him, and Chen Yichen did not show his identity as Shangguan to force him. But the situation is different now. If he cannot be trusted in front of the soldiers of the Three Guards of Fuzhou, how can he lead the army in the future!

Establishing a letter is the foundation of the military commander.

Seeing that Chen Yichen's patience had reached its limit, but this time Feng Zheng did not retreat. He gritted his teeth and walked to the other side, whispering: "Admiral, Commander Dou is the king behind Eunuch!"

Although Feng Zheng admitted that he could not take on the four words of loyalty, he always believed that he had not fallen to the point of being in the same world. Chen Yichen was a good official, and his arrival could not only change the overall situation, but at least it would ensure that the brothers of the Three Guards of Fuzhou would have more hope of survival.

Because of this, Feng Zheng did not want Chen Yichen to offend Wang Zhen behind Dou Yi. When the court sends the next minister to the admiral of military affairs, it is likely that Chen Yichen would be worse than Chen Yichen.

After understanding the reason for Feng Zheng's obstruction, Chen Yichen's face relaxed a lot. At least it can prove that this assistant commander of the guard was not Wang Zhen's person.

"It's okay, just lead the way!"

Chen Yichen seemed to have not heard the three words "Eunuch Wang" and still let Feng Zheng lead the way.

"I will obey the order!"

Everything that should be dissuaded was done. Feng Zheng thought he was worthy of his conscience. Since Chen Yichen was not afraid of Wang Zhen, he insisted on taking the commander of the guard Dou Yi to question him, then he could only go!

Soon Feng Zheng turned around and led the way. Chen Yichen followed him, and the soldiers of the Fuzhou three guards who were blocking the door of the tent automatically retreated to both sides and left a way.

Moreover, as the momentum became stronger and stronger, the military households attracted far more than the hundreds of people at the beginning. Chen Yichen walked through two dense walls of people, and countless faces looked at him with expectations in his eyes.

"Zhuang Yuan Gong, seek justice for our dead brothers!"

"Admiral, my brothers are not that weak, and we will definitely win back!"

"Admiral Chen, as long as he can save our brothers, wives and children, he will be humble and be willing to be in front of the horse!"
