Chapter 455: Reduction and demotion
Although Guo Xun was almost perverted and harsh to his son, when he saw that his son had a broken leg, he was immediately furious and shouted: "Come on, take down all these perpetrators for Ben Hou, and those who dare to resist will be killed!" ”
The dozens of nurses brought over by Guo Xun immediately drew their weapons and surrounded Wang Lin'er and the others with murderous violence.
It is worth mentioning here that the three major battalions of the Ming army were all formed during the Yongle period, namely the five military battalions, the three thousand battalions and the Shenji battalion.
The five battalions were the most numerous, consisting of a mixture of cavalry and infantry, and served as the main force of the attack; The 3,000 battalion was mainly composed of surrendered Mongolian cavalry, only 3,000 at the beginning, but the combat effectiveness was the strongest, one person with two horses, serving as the main force of the assault; The Shenji Battalion is an all-firearms battalion, with 3,600 infantry (fully equipped with firearms), 1,000 cavalry, and 400 artillery (equipped with handguns and artillery), with a total strength of 5,000 people.
Ming Chengzu Zhu Di relied on this elite army composed of three battalions to defeat the remnants of the Yuan forces. However, in the 14th year of orthodoxy, the "Tutubao Change", the three major battalions suffered a catastrophe, almost completely lost, and collapsed from the beginning. Later, Yu Qian, a famous minister, selected some of the remaining elites from the three battalions and formed ten battalions, and the three battalions with outstanding military achievements have since existed in name only.
During the Chenghua period, Ming Xianzong abolished the ten battalions and selected the elite group to form twelve regiments and battalions, which were the four martial arts battalions of Fen, Yao, Lian and Xian; Standing, stretching, raising and vibrating the four power camps; Dare, fruitful, effective, and drum four brave battalions.
During the Zhengde period, Zhu Houzhao of the Ming Dynasty abolished the 12 regiments and battalions, selected some of the elites, and transferred tens of thousands of border soldiers into Beijing, forming the East Official Hall and the West Official Hall, the West Official Hall was mainly composed of border troops, so all of them were handed over to Jiang Bin, who was born as a border general.
In March this year, Zhengde Zhu Houzhao died, Yang Tinghe was worried that Jiang Bin led the border army to make a rebellion, so he transferred the border army back to its original station, restored the structure of the 12 regiments and battalions, and handed them over to the 12 marquis, and Guo Xun, the marquis of Wuding, was one of the 12 marquis, and he was in charge of the Yaowu camp.
The dozens of nurses brought by Guo Xun were actually soldiers in the Yaowu camp, and even received military salaries, but after wearing the clothes of Guo's subordinates, they had actually become Guo Xun's private soldiers.
Just as Guo Xun's private soldiers pulled out their weapons and surrounded them, Xu Fuzhong also rushed out more than a dozen big men with weapons, who were the masters of the brocade guards who were responsible for protecting the little emperor Zhu Houxi.
Guo Xunzheng felt that something was wrong, so he saw a group of people walking out of the hall in the front yard of Xu's house, and a slightly sharp voice immediately shouted: "Stop, in broad daylight, you actually rushed into Jing Anbo's house with weapons to commit murder, do you want to rebel?" ”
Guo Xun fixed his eyes, and was suddenly frightened, and fell to his knees with a thud: "The minister Guo Xun knocked on the emperor, but the minister didn't know that the emperor was here, and he deserved death." ”
Guo Xun's subordinates have green faces, my mother, why is the emperor here, so frightened that they threw away their weapons and knelt on the ground and shrank back, showing their weapons in front of the royal car, not to rebel, but when you rebel, this is a big crime of the nine clans.
At this time, it was Zhu Houxi and Xu Jin who came out, and it was the eunuch Huang Jin who shouted just now.
I saw that Xu Jin's expression was calm, but the little emperor Zhu Houxi was gloomy, and the anger in his eyes was almost about to erupt, before he heard Xu Jin's "complaint", he was already quite annoyed, and at this time, he saw Wuding Guo Xun actually led people to rush into Xu's house with weapons to commit murder, naturally he was even more angry, and shouted: "Guo Xun, what do you want?" Do you really want to rebel? ”
Guo Xun shook smartly, at this moment, he naturally understood that he had been pitted, and he was pitted very badly, and it was really a black belly of a scholar, Mabi, Xu Suanzi was particularly insidious.
Guo Xun said with a pale face: "The emperor is angry, the minister just heard that there was a conflict between the domestic servants and Jing Anbo's domestic servants, so he brought people to stop it, and he didn't know that the emperor was here, and he collided with the holy car, and the ministers deserved to die!" ”
Xu Jin said lightly: "Marquis Guo, you led the crowd to rush into the official mansion with weapons, and you still murderously said that you should kill people, this is what you call stopping your subordinates?" If the emperor is not here today, is he planning to slaughter his own officials? ”
Zhu Houxi became even more angry when he heard this, and shouted: "Come on, tie up all the domestic slaves in Guo Mansion and escort them back to Fusi Prison in Beizhen." ”
Jin Yiwei couldn't help but say, and rushed forward to tie up all the nursing homes under Guo Xun, how dare these nursing homes resist, and obediently tie their hands and arrest them.
A layer of fine sweat broke out all over Wuding's body, and he distinguished: "The emperor is angry, and the minister is only anxious for his son for a while, so he ordered someone to take down the beater, and there is absolutely no intention of breaking into the house to commit murder." It's just a skirmish between the subordinates, and the people of the Xu Mansion are too ruthless, not only breaking all the hands and feet of Xiao'er's servants, but also breaking one of Xiao'er's legs. Only then did the minister become angry and anxious, and begged the emperor to learn clearly. ”
Xu Jin sneered: "Is it a small conflict, Guo Houye didn't count it in his heart?" The day before yesterday, the noble son used the excuse to beat the two family members of the house, and the inner son would not care about you, who knew that the noble son had become even worse, and yesterday he set on the slave and injured several family members in the house, one of whom was also broken by you.
Today is even more excessive, and he actually rushed directly into my Xu Mansion to commit murder, is it really impossible to be an official? The noble son led a slave to break into a private house and commit murder, but it was already light to discount one leg, even if the official ordered someone to kill him, he would not be wronged! ”
Xu Jin said that in the end, he was the most powerful, and his sharp eyes made Guo Xun dare not look directly.
Zhang Rui shouted loudly: "Xu Jin, you fart, this time it was obviously your Xu Mansion's family who provoked first, so we chased after Xu Mansion angrily." ”
Guo Xun rolled his eyes, and immediately said loudly: "Your Majesty, listen, this is clearly a trap set by Xu Jin, Xiao'er and his ministers have fallen for his calculations, ask the emperor to see it!" ”
Xu Jin said lightly: "When I beat my Xu Mansion family the day before yesterday, I used the excuse that the road was too narrow, and the house family blocked your way; Yesterday, I used the excuse that I was frightened by the firecrackers set off by the house; Today, I simply said that the family of this house is provocative, can you be more shameless? ”
Zhu Houxi was originally on Xu Jin's side, coupled with his preconceived ideas, and saw the people of Guo Mansion rushing into Xu's house to commit murder, so he naturally couldn't listen to Guo Xun's argument, and shouted: "Wuding Marquis Guo Xun has no way to teach his son, arson slaves are armed and murderous, and he will be fined for one year as compensation for the loss of Xu Mansion, and he will be demoted to Wudingbo by one level, and he will be relieved of his position as the commander of the Yaowu Battalion on the same day." ”
Guo Xun's face was like ashes in an instant, and the punishment was a trivial matter, but the demotion and dismissal of the military post were even more uncomfortable than killing him.
Guo Xun's eyes were red, and his heart was full of anger and hatred, of course, this anger and hatred were directed at Xu Jin, the emperor was the Ninety-Five, and the thunder, rain and dew were all Jun's grace, how dare he hold a grudge, and bowed down on the spot and said: "The minister is guilty, thank you!" ”
The reason why Zhu Houxi punished Guo Xun so heavily was that he was really angry, and secondly, he was also killing chickens and making an example of monkeys, lest those nobles would come to oppress the Xu family in the future.
"Apologize to Xu Jin immediately, and then take your people out of the Xu Mansion, if there is still bullying of the Xu Mansion in the future, I will not be able to spare you." Zhu Houxi shouted coldly.
Guo Xun secretly gritted his teeth, stood up and waved his hand at Xu Jin and said, "Guo has no way to teach his son, I apologize to Lord Xu here!" ”
Xu Jin naturally understood that Guo Xun was not apologizing, and the feud between the two mansions was concluded from the beginning, but he didn't care, and he didn't fight back when he was ridden on his head to and pee, this was not his style. If Marquis Wu Dinghou swallows his anger from now on, if he dares to continue to retaliate, Xu Jin will definitely accompany him to the end and completely overturn the Guo family!
Guo Xun apologized and ordered someone to carry his injured son and family members out of the Xu Mansion in a gloomy manner. Seeing this, all the families of the Xu Mansion were greatly relieved, and they were overjoyed, and looked at their master with admiration, hey, the master just used a little trick to find the field, not only abolished the son of the Guo Mansion, but also let the other party demote and dismiss him, and compensate him for a year.
That's what it's called...... In the midst of strategizing, the decisive victory is thousands of miles away. It is said that the Marquis of Wuding is 1,200 stones a year, which is converted into more than 1,000 taels of silver, and he makes a lot of money!
Zhang Rui's goods also wanted to sneak away, Zhu Houxi saw it, and his anger burned again, before Jianchang Marquis Zhang Yanling took his oracle as a deaf ear, and later leaked the news of Xu Jin's "death", which scared Sister Xiaowan.
Therefore, Zhu Houxi was very disgusted with the Zhang family, and at this time, he saw Zhang Rui's obscene description and participated in the bullying of the Xu family, so his anger immediately exploded, and he pointed at Zhang Rui and said: "Take this person down!" ”
Jin Yiwei immediately pounced and grabbed Zhang Rui, half of the face of this cargo was swollen like bread, and shouted while struggling: "Your Majesty, I am the eldest grandson of the Hou family of Shouning, your cousin Zhang Rui!" ”
It's good that Zhang Rui didn't mention it, but when he mentioned it, Zhu Houxi was even more annoyed, and shouted: "Thirty rods, escort back to the Fusi Prison in Beizhen to wait for the fate!" ”
Zhang Rui was almost scared to pee again, saying that his crotch was still wet, and he had already peed once before.
