Chapter two hundred and fourteenth

6. Chengdao Yamen is the most powerful official office in Tianjin. It is located on the best street in Tianjin. As the end of the year approaches, there are many people wandering and purchasing New Year's goods on the street.

At this time, the canal transportation outside the city stopped. There was no farm work in the field. It was the time when there were the most idle people. When I saw a large group of soldiers wearing tattered robes and guards, they shouted and walked over. Everyone was shocked. The first reaction was that there was a mutiny, and they walked away in panic.

But I heard the soldiers shouting:

"I owe money, owe money, owe money for the New Year!"

The voice was shouting loudly, but it did not harass the people and shops along the way. When the idle people saw that it was a bustle, Li Xuan followed him, and the more people surrounded him.

There were also 300 soldiers guarding the military preparatory yamen, and more than ten people were guarding the door. During the New Year, they were also idle and chatting around the charcoal brazier at the door.

Suddenly, when he saw a large number of soldiers and civilians pouring in at the intersection, he was shocked. The eunuch Wan Dao's coachman and follower who were waiting in the tea shed at the door were even more panicked.

These guards first drew out swords, but they could see from a distance that they could not deal with so many people. After hesitating, the leader turned around and ran towards the door. Seeing the leader running away, the others were not fools. The eunuch Wan Dao's followers and coachmen ran into the door regardless of the carriage and horses.

The gate was closed soon. The Bingbei Yamen was an important place in Jizhen. There were elite soldiers arranged by General Qi Jiguang to escort them. After the incident outside came in, the few generals were surprised, but they reacted quickly, shouting loudly and the soldiers lined up with weapons.

There were already prepared wooden frames and short ladders on the courtyard wall at the main entrance. The soldiers holding bows and arrows all climbed up, and one of them went to the gatehouse of the main entrance neatly.

Looking at the streets that were almost filled outside, as long as these beggars dared to rush into the yamen, they would start fighting. With more than 500 people, there were only more than 100 people holding sticks. Do these people come here to make trouble, and they want to die? As long as they dare to move around, they would be considered a rebellion.

There were also those sharp-eyed idle people who saw the swords, guns, swords and halberds on the wall of the yamen. They were afraid to retreat and dared not follow forward to watch the fun, for fear of causing harm to the fish in the pond.

Unexpectedly, these Jinyi Guards did not collide when they arrived in front of the door. A dozen more were standing around the main gate with sticks on their backs, shouting loudly that they would not let people move forward, and it looked like these people were guarding the guards and preparing for the road.

"What am I shouting, everyone will shout!!" A loud voice among the crowd shouted loudly, and the crowd suddenly became quiet.

"I can't survive if I owe my salary for three years!"

This is not a strong and powerful one, but it is the truth. The person below shouted in unison. The man who held his hand on the hilt of the knife was about to order a fight almost fell from the door building. What is this?

"The whole family is hungry and sells it all, and can only beg for food! It is said that it is the Jinyiwei, but it is really a beggar!! Drinking soldiers' blood, eating soldiers' meat, and deducting military pay. It is not tolerated by nature!"

Those used to being cowardly Tianjin Jinyi Guards were extremely nervous when they looked at the tight guard on the wall, but after shouting a few loudly, the ups and downs of the years surged and bitter. Thinking about the hard days of their family members over the years, their emotions gradually became motivated.

At the end, the shouting was a slogan "It is not allowed to deduct military pay!" and more and more people were attracted.

"The streets on both sides are blocked, so you can't let idle people sneak into this team. Remember. No one must attack this military preparation yamen."

Wang Tong calmly gave orders in the team, and several young men gathered by his side. After hearing the order, he hurriedly squeezed out.

The idle people on the street were very excited to see this scene. Everyone had the intention of joining in the fun. This was to collide with the government again, and everyone was very excited. Everyone knew that the Jinyiwei was not welcomed in Tianjin City, but they didn't expect that the trouble would come today.

Some people are thinking about going into troubled waters to catch fish, while others are thinking about going in and watching the fun. No matter what, some people are blowing when they go back today.

Unexpectedly, the group of Jinyi Guards pulled a banner with white cloth on both sides of the intersection, blocking everyone outside. Those who wanted to cross the banner were the ferocious man holding a wooden stick and beating him on the head and face him, and he could only look from a distance.

However, there was also a story on the banner, with big characters written in black ink on it, and both sides said, "Twenty-eight months of owed wages, military wages are deducted, and the law of nature is not tolerated!"

The crowd was shouting here excitedly. The guards of the military guards at the military preparatory yamen were still as if they were facing a great enemy at first, but later they looked at each other and didn't know what to do.

Everyone served in the army and owed 28 months. This was unreasonable. If they dared to owe this among the soldiers in Ji Town, they would have been in trouble and chopped Shangguan's head. It would be really hard for these soldiers in the Jinyi Guard to endure for twenty-eight months.
