I'm really not the carpenter emperor

"Those who took the lead in opposing the reorganization of the guards in Shaanxi have already lost their heads, and those who are sensible should move quickly and give up the land to my grandfather."

"Master, if I'm in a good mood, maybe I'll let you go like a dog, hahaha!"

As soon as these words came out, the soldiers in the guard were even more excited, shouting and cursing.

Seeing someone taking the lead, the rest of the guards responded one after another. The barracks suddenly became chaotic, and the soldiers of the guards rose up.

"We can't go!"

"My home is in Pinghaisuo. Why should the imperial court transfer me away with one word? The salary owed to me has not been paid yet, so let's talk about it!"

Hearing these yells, Commander Wei moved Tian Xing's eyes slightly, but he didn't speak out when he could stop it in time.

His attitude made the guards even more confused.

As the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, He Shijin may appear to be dressed in armor, but in fact, unlike Zhu Xieyuan, the governor of Shanxi and Shaanxi, he is a thorough civil servant.

Zhu Xieyuan lived and died with the officers and generals in Liaodong and Southwest China. He had a very high prestige in the army, and the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi created more of a good old man.

He looked at the soldiers of the guard who were gradually mutiny, and begged repeatedly:

"Everyone, please stop making trouble. Commander Tian should think of a solution. There is no way for the governor to compromise on this matter. After all, it is the court's intention."

"The meaning of the bullshit imperial court, I think it is the meaning of that Wei Yan!" Tian Xing was furious, and said: "Don't worry, governor, this matter has nothing to do with you. We just want the imperial court to make up for the owed wages, and don't implement it in Guangdong and Guangxi." Restructuring the guard!"

"This is the request of my subordinates, and it is also my request!"

He Shijin wiped his sweat, and said repeatedly: "Oh! If you know today, this governor should die to remonstrate with His Majesty, it's all this governor's fault..."

The guard generals below were also relieved.

"The governor doesn't have to blame himself, this is our own business!"

"Exactly, it is only natural for the imperial court to ask for wages due to the imperial court's arrears. Now that the imperial court does not pay in arrears, we naturally have to ask for an explanation!"

Seeing that the mutiny of the guard station was imminent, Qiu Kui, the commander-in-chief of the training regiment, no longer gave up his bossy orders just now, and led the battalion soldiers to flee in desperation.

But when he came to the gate of the camp, he was stopped by the guerrilla general at the beginning.

"Master Qiu Tuan, where are you going?"

Qiu Kui didn't expect to develop into this state, and looked at He Shijin, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi standing on the stage, with a look of pleading for help.

But the latter had a sneer all over his face, apparently not thinking of saving him.

"This, this, this, this is all his idea. The imperial court has no intention of letting you rotate defenses. Don't be fooled by him!" Qiu Kui shouted.

It's a pity that it's too late now, the surrounding guards are all shocked and angry, they can't listen to anything at all, looking at these battalion soldiers who are now cowering, they are angry at what they see.

The guerrilla general put the knife on Qiu Kui's neck.

"You fart! Your Majesty the Governor treats soldiers like sons, and it's all because of you and other battalion soldiers, flattering Wei Xie, and acting recklessly, which makes His Majesty make such a muddled decree!"

Qiu Kui was trembling all over, "You, what do you want? I am the leader of the training regiment in Chaozhou!"

"Don't worry, I won't kill you." The guerrilla general sneered, "Go back and tell your Chaozhou battalion to get out of Zhaoqing!"

Qiu Kui took the battalion soldiers and ran away. As for saying that the guerrilla general did not kill, he naturally had his own ideas.

It is one thing to oppose restructuring and ask for salary, but it is another thing to kill regiments and train generals.

When the former is held accountable, tens of thousands of people present will be killed, while if the latter is liquidated, he will be beheaded alone.

Seeing these changes in the barracks, He Shijin seemed a little overjoyed.

I have to say that these vulgar warriors who don't know anyone in big characters are really too easy to fool, and they should have done this long ago.

For the rest, learn from Ben Du!

This incident has nothing to do with him, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, until now.

It was Tian Xing, the commander of the Jieshi Guard, and Qiu Kui, the training commander of the Chaozhou Prefecture regiment, who made the trouble. Of course, it was their personal grievances and the reorganization of the guards made the guards complain.

Chapter 888 It's So Alone

The Zhaoqing guards suddenly mutinied and fought with the local regiment and battalion soldiers.

All of a sudden, there was chaos in the city, chaos everywhere, the sounds of officers and soldiers beating and killing, as well as the shouts of common people and pedestrians mixed together, it was very chaotic.

Apparently, after Qiu Kui, the regimental training commander in Chaozhou was released, he did not withdraw from Chaozhou obediently, but brought the battalion soldiers over to find a place.

The situation quickly turned to a direction that neither Qiu Kui nor Tian Xing could control. The guards and battalion soldiers fought with each other. The battalion, who claimed to be selected from the guards, fell into a disadvantage and was gradually driven out of the barracks.

The soldiers of the guard chased out of the barracks shouting and killing. After chasing a few streets, they dispersed in a crowd and began to loot the shops along the street, and even ordinary houses were affected.

When the first guard soldier kicked open the wooden door of the civilian house, more guard soldiers followed suit, and a chaos started without warning.

The city was full of flames, shouting and killing.

At this moment, a team of more than [-] people in armor and armor stopped neatly outside the city. Looking at the people fleeing from the city gate, Huang Degong said:

"Send people into the city to investigate, block the four city gates, and kill the rebels when they leave the city."

Not long after, several officers and soldiers of the Jiangnan Camp who had gone to the city to inquire about the news ran back, and one of them ran back. The armor that was bright just now was now stained with a lot of blood.

"I report to the governor, we have found out that the chaos in the city is caused by the dissatisfaction of the guards with the reform of the imperial court, and they mutinied on the pretext of asking for wages, and repelled the battalion soldiers. It was out of control."

Hearing this, the deputy general on the side looked worried and asked, "Master Governor, do we want to lead troops into the city immediately to take over the situation?"

Huang Degong thought for a while, then said:

"No, the guards mutinied because of asking for wages, plus the scattered battalion soldiers, there are at least tens of thousands of rioters. If they are forced to jump over the wall in a hurry, it will only increase the casualties."

The deputy general respected the governor-general who was born in the direct line of the Emperor of the Yongwei Camp and made great contributions in the Southwest War, nodded and asked:

"What does the governor mean?"

Huang Degong raised his hand, "Pass on my order, strictly control the four gates, no rebels can escape outside the city, and the Supervising Biaoying Battalion will enter the city with me!"

"Governor—!" The lieutenant-general was horrified when he heard the words, and immediately stopped him: "You can't do it, the army of the guards has mutinied. It's been planned for a long time, and asking for payment is just a pretext. If you enter the city now, you may be in danger of your life!"

"The mutiny just happened, and the guards made a disturbance. First of all, instead of looting the houses, they fought with the Chaozhou battalion soldiers. I think there is something strange about this matter." Huang Degong rode on the horse, frowned and said:

"Furthermore, the mutiny has already occurred, and the most urgent task is to minimize the losses. Rushing to lead the Jiangnan battalion to station will surely make the rebellious soldiers even more frightened."

"Once they take the risk again and do even more stupid things, it will be even more difficult to deal with. I can't do business with His Majesty."

"You guard the four gates. If I don't come out after half an hour, then lead the troops into the city and put down the rebellion by force. Before that, just wait quietly for me."

"Bring the wine!"

After saying this, Huang Degong drank a large jar of wine handed by the deputy general, and rushed into the city with more than a thousand cavalrymen from the Supervision Battalion.

Once entering Zhaoqing, the sight of rebels chasing and killing civilians along the street, smashing up shops, and seeing a disheveled woman about to be dragged into an alley by rebels to do that mediocre thing.

Huang Degong waved the whip in his hand, and shouted: "The rebels, do you know the governor?"

When the soldiers were confused, they let go of their hands, the woman broke free and ran to Huang Degong's horse. Seeing that the people who came were all cavalry with helmets and armor, the soldiers murmured in their hearts.

"who are you?"

"Governor of Jiangnan Camp, Huang Degong!" Speaking of these words, Huang Degong glared, and immediately frightened the rebel soldier to kneel down and beg for mercy.

"It turned out that Governor Huang is here, the little one is guilty!"

"It's good to know the crime. In the next life, you must keep yourself safe and follow the military regulations!" Huang Degong rode forward, raised the knife in his hand, and then rode forward:

"Go to the barracks, I want to meet Tian Xing!"

A group of cavalry went unhindered until they arrived at the barracks, and what the rebels did along the way made them feel angry.

They were surprised and delighted to see that the visitors were flying the "Yellow" flag, and they were all cavalry, and most of the rebels could guess who they were.

Fortunately, the person who came was Huang Chuangzi, the governor of Jiangnan Daying.

To my surprise, I was afraid that Huang Degong was here to settle accounts with them this time.

Qiu Kui, the commander of the Chaozhou regiment outside the barracks, and Tian Xing, the commander of the Jieshi Guards inside the barracks, heard that Zhaoqing was surrounded by the Jiangnan camp, and they all froze.

But when they saw that only Huang Degong and his supervisor battalion came in, they had no intention of resisting.

The two were still dissatisfied with each other, but they still stepped forward together, clasped their fists together and said, "The sinful general Tian Xing (Qiu Kui), pay homage to the governor!"

Huang Degong walked in front of the two, snorted coldly, ignored it, went straight to the high platform, looked around the already silent barracks, and said:

"The governor came to Zhaoqing to implement the national law and reform the bad governance of the guard!"

"The imperial court owes wages, it's not that the imperial court does not pay, but it is useless to pay!"

Hearing this, the rebels began to whisper.

"Useless?"

"Why is payment useless!"

Huang Degong raised his voice, even trying to cover the voices of the rebels, "10 taels will be issued, 6 taels will be deducted along the way, and another 3 taels will be deducted when we arrive at the guard."

"Distributed downwards, civil and military officials, exploited layer by layer, and the imperial court paid 10 taels of silver. In your hands, there may be only a few copper coins left."

"This kind of military salary, what's the difference between paying and not paying?"

The civil servants of Zhaoqing Mansion on the side heard that Huang Degong had entered the city, so they showed up one after another from the government office, beaming with joy. As soon as they arrived, they heard such words.

Immediately, everyone's complexion was ugly.

The magistrate's complexion fell, and the original thought of going up to praise also dissipated. The civil servants gathered together, and the discomfort on their faces was obvious.

Now Huang Degong only remembered the secret decree sent by Zhu Youxiao, and he didn't care about other people's eyes at all, so he said to himself:

"Today's emperor is so wise, to carry out the reform of the guards, and to reform such a bad government! All the salaries and food will be sent to you."

"Who is unwilling to do this? Those corrupt officials!"

"You were used by those with ulterior motives as gunmen this time. If you can put down your weapons and surrender immediately, the governor can forget the past!"

"Do you know that after the restructuring of the guards in Shaanxi, military households are no longer hereditary, and all salaries are reissued. Those who don't want to be soldiers have already returned home to farm."

"Are you going to oppose such a new policy?"

Huang Degong explained the content of the New Deal one by one, which soon caused a sensation among the guards and battalions in the barracks.

Soon, the Supervising Biaoying came up with big boxes one after another. When they were opened, they were all the salaries brought from Jinling City, and they were all to be distributed.

After hearing these words, the rebels were both surprised and happy when they saw the salary again.

As the first person dropped the waist knife in his hand, there were more "clang" sounds, and Huang Degong directly persuaded the tens of thousands of guards and battalions who had mutinied in Chaozhou to surrender!

The governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, He Shijin, who had been watching this scene from the shadows, was shocked.

Chapter 889 Emperor Martial Phase [-]

After paying the salary, Huang Degong didn't say anything more, and stepped off the high platform.

When he walked by, Tian Xing and Qiu Kui bowed even lower, thinking that they would be executed next, and their faces turned pale with fright.

Unexpectedly, Huang Degong walked past the two of them as if nothing had happened.

With the distribution of salaries, the mutiny of the officers and soldiers initially subsided, and the [-] soldiers and horses of the Jiangnan Camp outside the city marched into Zhaoqing Prefecture City without bloodshed.

Seeing soldiers and horses loyal to the imperial court stationed, the officials felt at ease.

In the barracks, Huang Degong sat at the top, and many generals from the Jiangnan camp lined up on both sides. Some of these fresh faces were graduates of the first phase of the Royal Martial Arts Academy.

These people have undergone extremely systematic education at the Royal Martial Arts Academy, and there are many descendants of generals and serving generals.

In addition to the three subjects of horse, infantry, and weapons, generals with rich experience in actual combat often serve as temporary instructors to teach them the knowledge of battle.

The first batch of students has graduated for two years now, except for a few extremely outstanding civil and military talents who were left in the Yongwei Camp, the rest have also held important positions in the Ming army in various states and prefectures across the country, shining brightly.

In addition to the Yongwei Camp, which served as the personal guard of the Son of Heaven, which was a popular place for martial arts students, there were also the Northwest Camp led by Zhang Wanbang, and the Jiangnan Camp led by Huang Degong, which were also the places most graduates wanted to enter.

But no matter the Yongwei Camp, the Northwest Camp in Datong, or the Jiangnan Camp south of Jinling, these camps established by Zhu Youxiao himself later had extremely harsh conditions for recruitment.

If the graduates of the Royal Martial Arts Academy can enter these camps after graduation, they will almost always be directly assigned as grassroots officers for a period of three months.

As long as the probationary period is passed, they are official officers.

At that time, as for the distribution of system military uniforms, steel knives and guns, land grants, tax reductions and labor and other benefits, there are simply too many to count.

Now if there is a graduate of the Imperial Martial Arts Academy in the family of an ordinary person, it is almost the same as the literati who took the imperial examination for a Jinshi and the final grade, they are all honored ancestors.

Royal Martial Arts Academy, under the regulations of the honorary president Zhu Youxiao, implements the policy of "lenient entry and strict exit". In principle, all those who pass the basic entrance examination are allowed to become students.

Looks good, but "strict out" is behind.
