Chapter 1073 The old subordinate who was fired
Starting from April of the 20th year of Wanli, the Ming Dynasty was gradually becoming nervous. The Huwei Army stationed near Beijing increased its training volume, while Cai Nan went to the craftsman and the Armory to inspect the armed forces.
Everyone understands this action very well. Increase training and ordering military weapons. This is the posture of preparing for war. If we contact Sanjiang Jiangfang to purchase grain and repair trucks, we will understand it even more.
The imperial guards and the Beijing camp were also doing similar actions. The forces in the capital increased. The Dongchang and the Jinyiwei sent people to Liaoning to investigate the case. They were all cases of corruption in the prefect. Who doesn’t understand what this is for?
Xuanfu and Jizhen also became nervous, not to mention that the Sili Supervisor and the Ministry of War sent people to Liaoning to order the prosecutors, and the three generals of Liaoning were all busy.
Even if there are only 40,000 Japanese pirates in North Korea, it is a big concern. After all, it is not far from North Korea to the capital. Thousands of Japanese pirates caused such movements in the southeast back then, so these 40,000 should naturally be treated with caution.
Although North Korea does not have the ability to fight, there are enough people asking for help. It is constantly being done every day. From this sharp news, it can be judged that the Japanese army is approaching the border of the Ming Dynasty day by day.
Unlike other foreign vassals, North Korea began to pay tribute since its founding of the Ming Dynasty and was very familiar with the heroic spectrum of the Ming Dynasty. On the one hand, it was through official procedures to seek help. On the other hand, some people took gold, silver and treasures, from eunuchs in the inner palace, to grand clerks in the outer court, to censors in the censorate, and even the Zheng family was asked, and those who could speak were asked.
At present, the court meetings are all about these things. Originally, "a large number of chieftains in Chu were either destroyed" or took the initiative to hand over power. There were a large number of new prefectures and counties, and people arrangements were all necessary to worry about." But the central area could not care about those, and they were talking about Korea and Japan every day.
Compared with the tense capital of the capital, Jiangnan is relatively relaxed. Everyone who has visited Songjiang Port and seen the Sanjiang fleet is confident in the safety of this area, let alone those who know the background of Luzon. What is the Japanese pirates like such a strong fleet?
The capital is preparing for war. Songjiang is not taking it a slack treatment. Wang Tong has begun to order the sea lords who are in alliance to keep their elite and good ships in Songjiang. Each family does not require too much power, but they must go out. They are not idle in Songjiang, but they will not run long-distance businesses.
In June, three Portuguese merchant ships arrived in Songjiang. These ships came from the Arabian side. In addition to the specialties there, the cargo they brought were also Persian female slaves. It really caused a sensation in Jiangnan. According to the white managers under Wang Tong, these white female slaves who were trafficked may not be Persians, and it is very likely that they are from European countries.
The Ottoman Empire between Eurasia is also known as strong. The harems of Ottoman Harry were all composed of female slaves. The princes, nobles and important officials at all levels also had this habit. Therefore, population trade was very prosperous in the Ottomans, and human traffickers collected people from all over the place and came here to sell them.
Of course, not every woman can enter the harem or the noble family, and many people will sell them to other places. Most of the rich people's preferences are the same. "It's nothing more than making money about wine, sex, wealth and power. The Portuguese naturally knew the wealth of Songjiang Prefecture and Tianjin Wei, so they wanted to make money on this.
After buying it in the population market there, I first recovered briefly in Macau, so that the female slaves could be in a better state, and then went north to Songjiang.
The arrival of these female slaves was indeed a sensation. The exotic style was unique. Everyone had the intention of trying it out and showing off at home. Fengyue places such as Qinhuai River, Yangzhou, Suzhou and Hangzhou had a business vision. They hurried to buy it, and added a selling point to themselves. There were also those sensual literati and scholars who wrote essays and paintings, and they were all happy. Jiangnan was like a paradise at this time. Who cares about the crisis in North Korea................ Wang Tong had some other things in addition to sorting out information. Seeing Ji Xiuer was about to be produced, the inner house was surrounded by this matter, and he was also very busy. This kind of busyness was something that Wang Tong could not interfere. Wang Tong was unwilling to go back and was idle. His daily time in the study and schoolyard increased greatly.
On the morning of the fifth day of the sixth month, Wang Tong was accompanying Wang Xia to exercise. Wang Xia was about the same size as a child of seven or eight years old, and she was very strong. Wang Tong was happy to see it.
After all, he is a young man from the family. He has been good at eating and drinking since he was a child, and his exercise was good. In addition, Wang Tong is strong and Han Xia is also inherited by the generals. His physical fitness is beyond words, but he looks like a tiger general at first glance.
"You kid, you are very strong in martial arts practice, but you don't want to study. If you skip classes and play, be careful that I will use the board to beat you!"
Wang Tong was teaching a lesson there with a tiger's face, Wang Xia held a long pole in his hand, and stabbed it in a standard posture. "There is not a time when a child can calm down in martial arts practice, but he can't read books.
I was educating here, but a personal guard came to report outside, saying that someone came from Ningxia.
It was only in the past two years that Wang Tong had the opportunity to accompany his wife and children. Of course, his approach has been criticized in the circle of wealthy people in Jiangnan. There are certain rules between husband and wife and father and son in wealthy families, the number of times, time and even places they spend together every day. Wang Tong is very unspecified, but Wang Tong doesn't care, and no one else dares to say it.
This is the case. Wang Tong's personal guards are all promising roles. The prince is enjoying family happiness, and some unimportant official duties are recommended. The Duke of Liao never slacked off in his official duties, and he does not have to worry about delaying his official duties.
Wang Tong turned a blind eye to the behavior of the personal guards, so this notice surprised him. Ningxia had a lot of contact with Songjiang, but the degree of notification was only once every ten days, and the messenger was not necessary to see the correspondence. Now he said that there were people, what was going on?
"It was General Sun who set up two battalions and sent them to the Duke of China to find a livestock!" The guard reported carefully. He also felt that this matter was a bit incredible. Wang Tong frowned even more and asked, "What is the name of Xiguan?" "Report to Duke of China, one is Guancheng and the other is Bai Dawu."
When he heard the name Wang Tong was stunned. He knew these two people. They were among the fifty young men who bought them when they were the chief banner in the capital. They were considered as hard-core direct descendants. Why were these two people sent by Bie Xin?
Although the Huwei Army regiments are always guarding one side, and each person has an independent system, and can appoint and remove the military generals below, in fact, the battalion officials of each regiment, especially the group promoted by Wang Tong, cannot move around. If there is a real crime, then no one will say anything according to the military law. However, before handling the case, you must notify Wang Tong. Otherwise, it is unruly. Of course, if you do things based on your personal likes and dislikes, it will not be possible.
Whoever promoted your group? You have only been alone for a few days and don’t take the commander seriously. You are still a member of the Huwei Army. Even if you fight this lawsuit, you will not be able to be able to match Emperor Wanli. Such an inhumane person is doubtful.
And it’s all a bit to say whether this dispute can be reached by the emperor. From Cai Nan, Zhao Jinliang to the eunuchs, do you think it’s a decoration?
Fortunately, this is just a favor officialdom. The following groups are always very upright and understand where their current status comes from. There is no such thing. Li Tao, who came from a noble family, is more enthusiastic about Wang Tong than others, so there is no need to say.
If it were Li Tao's subordinates, Wang Tong would be a little prepared. Unexpectedly, it was Sun Xin, which made him even more surprised. Moreover, these two people didn't even say hello before being opened. This was really Wang Tong got up and patted Wang Xia's forehead, called his personal guard to send Wang Xia to Yang Sichen's place to study, and then went to the main hall by himself.
After entering the main hall, I saw two big men wearing civilian clothes knelt down respectfully. Six soldiers dressed in personal soldiers behind the big man also knelt down together.
"Sir, please see the Grand Marshal and ask the Grand Marshal for good." After hearing the title, Wang Tong's original anger dissipated a lot. He waved his hand and said, "I have stopped commanding soldiers for a long time. What is the general? You two have made any mistakes and are actually tidy?" The two of them are in good spirits and dressed neatly, but overall they look like a dusty face. When they heard this, they looked back and looked at them. The six personal soldiers kowtowed again, saying, "Master, Sun Group General has ordered the young man to escort the two men to the Grand Marshal. If these two men say something, the villain cannot hear them, and the villain will retreat now." After hearing what he said, Wang Tong was even more surprised. He nodded and asked them to retreat, pondered for a while, and waved his hand and said, "Let's retreat, don't let people hear the things here.
The guards around them all retreated. The command meant that everyone had to be a distance from the house. The guards naturally understood and bowed to the order.
"Tell me!" At this point, Wang Tong also understood that there must be a hidden secret. When he asked, the two people below looked at each other, and Guan Cheng said with a bad look on his face: "Master, the young men followed President Sun to fight in Sichuan and returned to Ningxia in a glorious manner. Everyone was happy. Lao Bai and I got together to drink a few more items." "When you were in the capital, you talked a lot of nonsense and talked about serious matters!"
Wang Tong impatiently took the case of the book. When he said this irritable sentence, the atmosphere eased a lot. Guan Cheng quickly kowtowed and said, "The general has atonement for his sins. His subordinates have fought a lot of wars in Sichuan. Those Miao soldiers and Yao soldiers were said to be the same as demons born by local officers and soldiers in Sichuan. But after fighting with us, they were all dog meat products and were not worth fighting at all. When Xiao and Lao Bai were drinking, he said, what kind of wasteful soldiers in Sichuan were like...
