Chapter 935: Today's Southern Capital, who is the world

In order to make the stupid reactionary nobles of Nandu give up the ignorant thoughts in their minds, Gonggong Wei finally took the most daring step in his life.

He marched bravely and with his head held high to the southern capital, to recover the reparations that should have been received, and to denounce the rotten, cowardly, and selfish reactionary nobles.

This is an extremely bold step, more than 200 years after the founding of the country, this is the second time that the eunuch led the troops into the capital of the Ming Dynasty in Beijing.

This is destined to go down in history!

Before marching, Duke Wei made a famous speech in front of all the soldiers and his supporters.

"The Yangtze River is turbulent, and the Purple Mountain is full of dark clouds. In these corrupt times, my blood boils. The privileged person is indispensable, the affairs of the family and the country are ignored, the power of the powerful, the poverty and luxury, and the affairs of the family and the country are ignored...... The time for innovation has come, and the night will sweep away the brightness of the hurricane..."

Gonggong Wei denounced the reactionary noble forces in the southern capital led by Xu Hongji, the Duke of Wei, saying that they were extremely poor and extravagant, greedy, ignorant of the people's suffering, and did not care about the lives of the people... and planned several murder actions against Gonggong Wei, and openly deployed troops to attack the Ming Imperial Army, so that the Son of Heaven's army did not wrap his body on the battlefield, but died under his own swords and guns.

As a lieutenant and admiral eunuch personally appointed by His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Gonggong Wei has the responsibility and obligation to lead the soldiers of the imperial army to repay the blood debt from those corrupt reactionary noble forces!

“…… You are the pro-army of the Son of Heaven and represent the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, so after entering the southern capital, you must not commit any offense against the people, strictly abide by your order and discipline, and absolutely protect the legitimate rights of the people, so that everyone in the southern capital knows and understands that you are not only an invincible army, but also an army with strict military discipline and iron-blooded spirit! ”

After speaking, Grandpa Wei clenched his fists and waved excitedly at his supporters.

The nobles of Fengcheng, Lingbi, Dongning, and sincerity with wooden faces also mechanically stretched out their fists in the crowd, and the people next to them shouted, and they also shouted.

At the same time, in the name of the commander of the Jiangnan town, the guard of the south of the city issued a pass defense and sent it to the southern capital, and the guard demanded that the garrison of the southern capital, the soldiers and horses of the five cities, Ying Tianfu and other large and small yamen should welcome the actions of the lieutenant guard of Jiangnan town and the officers and soldiers of the army to enter the southern capital, and not to carry out any hostile acts.

"All battalions in the southern capital shall not provoke our troops without authorization, and all officers shall order their headquarters to withdraw to the camp, confiscate the ordnance and store it in the treasury. If there is a provocation, it will be regarded as a treason and convicted. ”

The tough attitude of Guan Fang shocked the garrison of Nandu.

The first to be affected by the customs defense was the first part of the Shenji Battalion stationed outside the Shangfang Gate, and under the leadership of the deputy general Li Shauji, they gave way to the way to march into the southern capital, and strictly implemented the order of the lieutenant officer of Jiangnan Town - lay down their arms and defend neutrality.

The "non-resistance" attitude of the Shenji Battalion soon affected the patrol battalion.

In the face of the menacing Ming Imperial Army, the patrol battalion officers also strictly adhered to neutrality and forbade soldiers to stop without authorization.

Of the officers and men of the two divisions, only a few noble lackeys tried in vain to resist stubbornly, but due to the disparity in strength, they were quickly suppressed by the neutral officers and soldiers.

At the end of the day, the cavalry of the Ming Royal Army appeared under the Shangfang Gate.

Soon, the fully armed infantry of the Ming Imperial Army also arrived at the city, and the defenders of the city clearly saw the Jiangnan town guard Wei Gonggong, who was surrounded by Jinyi guards.

"Qin ordered Jiangnan to guard, Qin ordered the admiral and maritime eunuch Wei Gonggong to enter the city, and the city gate was quickly opened!"

Regarding the requirements outside the city, Zhao Mou, the general of the water and land standard barracks in the city, did not know how to deal with it, and hurriedly sent someone to ask Chen Fu, the left supervisor of the inner garrison who stayed here last night.

When Chen Fu went to the city, the Wei Mansion and the Longping Marquis Mansion also went to the city, and after seeing the Shenji and the second patrol battalion outside the city not stopping the Wei eunuchs, the people in the Guogong Mansion and the Hou Ye's Mansion were frightened, and strongly demanded that Zhao not open the city gate, and if the other party forcibly attacked the city, the water and land standard barracks must counterattack.

"Isn't that a rebellion?"

Zhao couldn't make up his mind, but the Guan Fang sent by Eunuch Wei regarded those who dared to resist as a crime of rebellion. Not to mention this defense, this Wei eunuch was ordered by the emperor to guard it, what reason did he have to openly resist the other party's entry into the city by force.

When he came, Gonggong Liu had instructed that the water and land standard barracks should not be allowed to release guns without authorization.

This is the first charge, and Zhao really can't bear it.

Therefore, the arrival of Chen Fu, the left supervisor, made Zhao see a savior, and hurriedly asked Chen Gonggong what to do.

Chen Fu glanced at the people from the Guogong Mansion and the Hou Mansion, shook his head, walked to the battlement and looked down, and saw that the outside of the city was full of Wei Liangchen's soldiers and horses.

In his sight, Wei Liangchen was also looking at him.

After hesitating, Chen Fu ordered Zhao to open the city gate and welcome Jiangnan Town into the city.

"This..."

Zhao was surprised.

"If anyone asks, he will say that our orders are good."

After Chen Fu finished speaking, he sighed secretly, this little Wei is still a violent temper after all, opening the city gate and letting him in at this moment may be better than not opening the city gate.

I hope those nobles can be subdued and don't really mess up the city of Nanjing.

As for the consequences of ordering someone to open the city gate without authorization, Chen Fu didn't think much about it.

If the same class does not help the same class, can it help another class?

There is a need for struggle between classes.

At two o'clock, the Shangfang Gate was slowly opened, and the cavalry with the banner of the Jiangnan Town Guard Lieutenant immediately entered the city, and soon the infantry entered the city and quickly took over the defense of the Shangfang Gate from the hands of the water and land standard barracks.

After the news reached the inner city, the reactionary nobles in the city were frightened, some hurriedly asked people to prepare ransom and prepare to go to Shangfang Gate to make amends to Eunuch Wei, some were scurrying around in the palace like headless flies, some ordered people to quickly block the gate with bricks and stones, and some secretly hid like rats.

The Wei Mansion also urgently convened a meeting, which was attended by Wang Yongguang, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, and Wei Guanghui, the head of the household department.

Subsequently, Zhang Guoyan, Marquis of Longping, Sun Tingxun, Ying Chengbo, Wei Guanghui, and Wei Guanghui, the head of the household department, went to Shangfangmen to ask to see Wei Gonggong, and were willing to exchange 700,000 taels of silver for Wei Gonggong's past innocence, or a friendly treaty between the two sides.

However, 700,000 taels of silver did not calm the anger of Father-in-law Wei, he smiled and replied, and said: "This time our family came to the city, not only for ransom. This entry into the city is of a larger, more serious nature, or rather, we want to figure out one thing. ”

Wei Guanghui, as a mediator, hurriedly asked Wei Gonggong what he wanted to understand.

Gonggong Wei snorted angrily, looked at Zhang Guoyan, Marquis of Longping, and said sharply: "We just want to ask, who is the world in this southern capital today!" ”
