Chapter 784: The noise is all rumors

readx;

The border town of Datong is more than 100 miles to the north, which is the border between the Ministry of Albert and the Ming Dynasty, although there is no legal determination so far, but all parties are abiding by it, not only the soldiers of the border town think so, even the ministers of the DPRK and China also think so.

Wang Tong on the march, as long as the conditions permit, every day there are fast horses to send letters to Datong, and then all the way to the Beijing Division, the governor of Datong, the governor of Xuanda, as well as the original Datong Town Supervisor, and even the deputy general of Datong Town, Ma Dong, every day has their own newspapers and newspapers sent to everywhere, of course, most of them are transmitted to the Beijing Division.

After Wang Tong crossed this hundred-mile boundary, the people in the Beijing division knew the news for the first time, they didn't know what kind of role the mature hot weapon troops had, but they had the simplest way to compare, Wang Tong's side was less than 30,000 foot soldiers, and the Tartars could mobilize at least 50,000 horsemen, and the actual number was only a lot more.

In the past, the Tatar cavalry and the Ming Dynasty fought, but it was really a collision of the mobilized armies of the two sides, and the Tatar cavalry was enough to be tens of thousands of Ming and Ming foot soldiers.

Moreover, the 30,000 Ming army led by Wang Tong carried its own grain and grass, and the lone army went deep, and in the territory of the enemy country, the other party had superior troops.

The 30,000 soldiers were lost outside the fortress, and they died when they died, and what really made people feel troublesome was that this would definitely anger the Alta army and make them come to retaliate.

The soldiers of Datong Town are weak and weak, and they can't stop it at all, so they can only rely on Li Rusong, the chief soldier of Xuanfu, and Li Yunlai, the chief soldier of Jizhen, and the elite soldiers of Jizhen Town were transferred by Wang Tong to 20,000 of them, so they can only pin their hopes on Li Chengliang, the chief soldier of Liao Town.

If Qi Jiguang, the chief soldier of Jizhen, is still there, everyone's mind can be more stable, and Qi Jiguang is now the chief soldier in Guangdong, if the Great Northland, there is no famous general to preside over the overall situation, is it going to repeat the tragedy of being captured by the Tartars to break through the pass, ransack Datong, and then go straight to the land of the capital "The culprit of all this is Wang Tong, this bold and reckless bastard general, relying on the favor of the Son of Heaven to get carried away, and finally caused a catastrophe The leader of the internal guard.

When the news first reached the Beijing Division, the officials and scholars of the Beijing Division did not believe it, because it was too unbelievable, what was the purpose of being an official, in order to make meritorious contributions, for the sake of a beautiful wife and concubine, and a wealthy family" Wang Tong did so many things in Datong, just to promote his official wealth and achieve a higher status.

But leading the inferior soldiers to go deep into the enemy territory in northern Xinjiang, this place is for fame and wealth, it is obviously to send death, he Wang Tong died cleanly, but don't bother everyone.

Then again, "Wang Tong has a good foundation in Tianjin Wei, so many shops and merchants, every day and every month are the entry and exit of Jinshan Yinhai, he poured" Who will take care of this foundation, with Tianjin's current tax status, there may be a single Zhili Prefecture there, and even a single government is also possible, whoever achieves this position must not die, and the foreign officials think so" The ministers also thought a lot.

With Tianjin Wei's annual input to the palace, how can the palace also set up a tax supervisor there, and it is the gate of opening the sea, and the city should also have it, and the grain and straw transfer this piece of "supervising the grain This position is not to add a person, this is a real fat shortage, do it for a few years, it is estimated that you don't need to be too ruthless, you can eat and use it for several lifetimes."

However, the eunuchs in the palace are much more tempted, but those who dare to speak and do not do it are not, "Zhang Cheng and the ministry are staring at it tightly, and there is a Zhao Jinliang next to the emperor, and now he is making a move or saying, "Don't get any benefits, I was beaten to pieces first, and it will be worth the loss."

The people in the palace did not move, but they could instigate the people outside the palace to move, which made the officials and scholars of the Beijing Division, who were a little hesitant, suddenly clamored.

Almost on the first day, the news came on the second day, and the front of the General Secretary was crowded with officials and scholars, and even the political envoy received a message from some quarters, asking him to give priority to the impeachment of Wang Tong.

"I don't know the severity, I lead a large army to death, such a traitor. It's not an exaggeration! ”

"For the merits of one person, ignoring the lives and deaths of tens of millions of soldiers, their sins are high in the sky and the sea is deep, and they should be in serious trouble"

"......, Wang Tong has always been shrewd, how can he be so Meng Lang, he will definitely regret going to Northern Xinjiang"

&nba Bamen, killing heads and copying homes is the mainstream, and some people say that Tianjin Wei is now a wealthy place, and no one can preside over it, please send a virtuous person to go.

The attitude of the palace towards these Gu Shu is also very uniform, stay in the middle, you send it, I will accept it, and I will not react at all.

After Wang Tong led the army into the mountains, the number of sentries and rangers following the Tartars gradually increased, and the transmission of news by the army led by Wang Tong was also temporarily stopped.

Although there is news to Jingshi every day, it will take about ten days for these news to stop, and if it stops in one place, it may not stop on the Jingshi side, and Jingshi also knows this time difference, so basically no one believes the news and newspapers from there, and it is replaced by all kinds of rumors.

Today is the annihilation of the army, tomorrow is the Tatar captives have broken into Datong, what else Wang Tong led the army to surrender to the enemy, the army has gone out of Shanxi and so on.

The people of Beijing are even more panicked, obviously close to the New Year, it should be busy in Beijing for the New Year, but many people have gone out of the city to join their relatives, and first left the land of Beijing to take refuge.

There were even such bastard people, some people jokingly shouted at the gate somewhere, "The Tartars have called", and the market, which was still peaceful, immediately became chaotic, some hiding, some running, women and children crying and screaming.

From this gate to the city, and then to all directions, the whole city of Mu Jingshi inside and outside the city, they were in a state of panic, and there were scoundrels who took advantage of the fire to rob, and began to fish in troubled waters, to rob shops, and to rob houses.

If it is placed in the past, I am afraid that the situation will be uncontrollable, the gate of the imperial city will be closed, the gate of the capital division will be closed, the curfew will be imposed on martial law, and then soldiers will be sent into the city to suppress it, the situation will be turbulent, and the dead will also be inevitable.

The Shuntianfu has a limited number of errands, and the soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division are weak, and in the past, when encountering such a situation, it is already good to ensure that the yamen is not impacted, but it is impossible to take care of the whole city.

However, the situation is very different from the past, Jinyiwei has a military justice department, a patrol department, and a training department, and the chaos has just begun, and the response of the patrol department is half a beat slower, just maintaining order on each street, but the number of people on each street is limited, and it is a drop in the bucket.

However, Li Wenyuan and Lu Wancai immediately made a decision, and the military police of the Military Justice Department began to inspect the whole city, on the one hand, they conveyed orders, and on the other hand, they encountered the murderers who took advantage of the fire to rob, and arrested the law on the spot.

Although the Department of Military Justice was transferred by Wang Tong to go to northern Xinjiang, those who stayed were also the elite of Dongchang and the army, riding horses and galloping through the streets, those scoundrels who took advantage of the fire to rob did not expect that the official messenger came so fast, and it was so fierce, they didn't even have a chance to escape, they could only kneel on the ground and beg for mercy, and those who reacted slowly were immediately cut off by a knife.

The officers of the Patrol Division who had received the order also took action, and they no longer distributed according to their respective sections of the street, but assembled, holding the skinned wooden stick in their hands, and began to take to the streets to maintain order.

The chaotic people ran around the streets, and they came down with sticks to cover their heads, crying for their fathers and calling their mothers, and immediately did not dare to move around, and obediently listened to the arrangements and transfers.

The security forces in the city act first, and then the forbidden army, and when the horse team of the forbidden army begins to patrol inside and outside the city, those who want to toss something out are honest, not to mention the forbidden army horse team, wearing armor and riding horses, and galloping on the street The brocade guards and military police are shocking enough.

The situation remained peaceful, that is, the officials of Shuntianfu and the soldiers of Jinyi Guard beat the gong and preached on the street, indicating that everyone was a false alarm.

There is such a mess in the city for some reason, at this time, the Wenyuan Pavilion is in the court, and when the officials report this matter, the emperor and the bigwigs of the six cabinet departments are deliberating, and they are all shocked to hear this.

However, the news in and out of the Beijing Division was also fast, and soon it became known that the Jinyi Guard's Patrol Division, the Military Justice Department and the Rectification Division were moving, and they began to suppress it, and it was not long before there was news that the riots in the Beijing Division began to subside, and then there was news that there was no more incident.

Although everyone had a false alarm, but there was also a feeling of being disgraced, the Wanli Emperor was furious, so the procedures for killing the head were also very fast, and the Jinyi Wei soon passed the command of the commander Li Sigong to hand over the list, making this joke at the city gate, making noise in the city, looting, and all those who were not killed on the spot were directly arrested, and the disposal was very simple, and they were immediately decided.

In the morning, there was a great chaos in the city, and the chaos subsided, and the killing immediately began at the noon gate, and the heads fell to the ground, blood sprayed, and all those who saw it were silent.

The city said that Wang Tong was guilty, but what calmed down the situation was the new Jinyi Wei organization established by Wang Tong, which made everyone quite speechless.

Compared with the disturbances of the officials and scholars, most of the senior officials of the six cabinets still did not get involved in this matter, because they couldn't take care of it, if Datong was really broken by the Tartars, then there would be a great danger in the land of Gyeonggi, and now Jizhen was transferred 20,000 elite soldiers, and there were few soldiers in Xuanfu, and the Beijing camp and the forbidden army should also be prepared.

Wang Tong's reckless behavior caused turmoil in the hearts of the people of Jingshi, which is another sin, but the fate of these sparse performances is still not left, but at the beginning of the first month of the twelfth year of Wanli, there is no news from Wang Tong's army.
