Chapter 248: Looking for Foreign Aid

*****

On the Jinluan Hall in Nanjing, Ma Shiying proposed to use Ruan Dacheng twice, and the Donglin Party in the hall suddenly became angry, rolled up their sleeves and rushed up one by one, wanting to drown Ma Shiying and his group alive with saliva.

The solemn Jinluan Hall soon turned into a breeding farm, with chickens flying and dogs jumping, ducks and geese rattling

As the so-called people are confused, the two factions below are tense and quarrelsome, and Emperor Hongguang can't hear what they say at all.

He, a newly enthroned emperor, was still inexperienced in how to deal with this kind of scene, so he had to look at Han Zanzhou for help.

Han Zan saw that even the palace envoy who was responsible for maintaining order in the court had joined the war of words, so he had to stand up and shout: "Quiet, is there still an emperor in the eyes of the ministers?"

This sharp shout, like an arrow piercing the clouds, finally made the two factions remember that there was still a Hongguang Emperor sitting above, and most of them quieted down;

Xiong Rulin reacted the fastest in the matter of Hu Keyou, and immediately turned around and played to Hongguang: "Your Majesty, Ruan Dacheng, the first emperor has abandoned it, and the whole country has no choice but to do it, even if the cabinet ministers think that he has some talents, he should also sacrifice himself and others, taking into account the views of the people in the world. Ning's extensive search, seeking different talents in Caoze, how can he be selfish and go against the will of the people, and turn the iron case into the criminal book? ”

Hu Ke immediately followed up with Luo Wanxiang in the matter, and continued to bombard: "Ruan Dacheng recruited a few rangers to talk about swords and soldiers, so he said that he knows soldiers?" Swallow note, spring lantern riddle, is not the yin charm on the pillow, the yellow stone in the sleeve. The decree of the first emperor was abandoned once and again, and the emperor's edict was reversed, so how do the people of the world feel? ”

In terms of lip service, the Tingruan faction, which is dominated by Xunchen, really can't do the Donglin generals, you must know that the brothel of Tianqinglou practices debate. How can ordinary people look up to it?

Without waiting for Ma Shiying's faction to answer, the imperial historian Chen Liangbi had already snatched it out again, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, since Wei rebelled against the theft of power, a group of small poisons, and the righteousness of the thieves in the Spring and Autumn Period, he must first apply for his law of governing the party. I'm afraid this case will be opened. Then the evil of the reverse case is known, and the reverse case is exhausted, then the case of the first emperor will be disordered in one day. If the Chin case can also be overturned, then why will it be visible to the world and posterity? ”

Huaiyuan Hou Chang Yanling, who was on Donglin's side, spoke even more fiercely, and directly launched a personal attack on Ruan Dacheng: "Ruan Dacheng, the flow of a play, is the son of a eunuch, and Wei is ambushed. Ruan Dacheng is asking for a knife, and there is still no guilt. Now it's just a ban on him for life, and it's already high and inclusive. ”

When Ma Shiying heard this, he laughed angrily. Dayou played openly: "The minister has been in the office for 30 years, and the prisoner has changed, and the minister's family has stopped ten people, and the minister has almost died. Renshen. The soldiers are easy to make peace, and the soldiers are declared big. and Ren Xuanfu for 50 days. Caught. The Imperial Prison and Punishment Department has been in prison for nearly three years, and several ministers have died. From the military station, the minister was the governor of Fengyang, with only a few thousand soldiers and only a few hundred horses, and hundreds of thieves such as Ge Zuo, Xian Rebellion, and Xiao Yuan, hundreds of thousands of people came to attack, and the ministers died. The thief trapped the Beijing division, and the first emperor was in trouble, and the minister deserved to die. Those who offend the feudal territory and the ancestors may not die. And if you offend your friends, you will die. The first emperor punished Xue Guoguan, Zhou Yanru, etc., how could they fulfill the intention of the first emperor? ”

Ma Shiying is a big bachelor, don't you want to kill people, Lao Tzu has died in this life I don't know how many times, I'm afraid you won't make it?

And when he said that if he offended his friends, he would die, which was to point out how arrogant and ruthless the Donglin Party was, and to use the example of Xue Guoguan and others to fight back, and this punch counterattack was indeed heavy enough.

This quarrel, to Zuihou there was no result, Emperor Hongguang had no chance to speak from beginning to end, Zuihou still had a dry mouth and was hungry, so he temporarily withdrew his troops and prepared to fight again tomorrow.

However, early the next morning, there was news that Emperor Hongguang had ordered Ruan Dacheng to be summoned to see him, and Hongguang did this because he wanted to cook the raw rice as soon as possible, otherwise the ministers would continue to quarrel over this matter, and the country's military and political affairs would not be taken care of. Second, he is very aware of the principle that the barrel of a gun is out of power.

The Donglin Party people were dumbfounded, the drama of collective resignation has been played, and it won't work anymore, if Ma Shiying can't get a kick, if he really kicks them out of the court, then he will play Dafa.

The naΓ―ve and lively Donglin Party members also began to realize the truth of the gun out of power at this moment, and looking at the world, the Donglin Party can not master many guns, because they have always believed that they can drown people with saliva.

Of course, the Donglin Party is not completely without guns, Shi Kefa has one or two thousand troops in his hands, the problem is that Shi Kefa has a tendon in his head, let him bring the troops to uh, don't even think about it.

Sensing that the danger was approaching step by step, the Donglin Party began to look around anxiously, Jiang Yueguang proposed to disturb Qin Mu, he still had some friendship with Qin Mu at the beginning.

In this regard, everyone did not have much hope, after all, Qin Mu had clearly expressed his support for Zhu Yousong, and it seemed that he had secretly reached an alliance with Ma Shiying and others, but the desperate Donglin Party still decided to send someone to give it a try.

Qian Qianyi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, then remembered a person, this person was Hou Fangyu, who was made smelly by Qin Mu, and Hou Fangyu's Laozi Hou Sui was Zuo Liangyu's great benefactor

***

This time, the Qin army expanded by 50,000 troops, mainly recruited from the refugees who fled from Jiangbei, which could reduce the pressure on the local government to resettle refugees; Second, wars are raging in the north, and many of the refugees who have fled south have military experience, which is conducive to the formation of combat effectiveness of the new army as soon as possible.

Outside the east gate of Wuchang, the black Qinzi banner was waving in the wind, and the people in front of the temporary recruitment point were noisy, and the refugees who came to apply for the recruitment lined up in five columns and a half mile long, and everyone looked different, or they were eager to try, or worried, or boastful, or silent, or suffered from gains and losses.

The two hundred Qin soldiers who were responsible for maintaining order were brightly dressed and armored, with bows and swords on their backs, and the refugees who came to apply for the recruitment were obediently waiting in line under their shouts.

"Next." Li Dongming, deputy director of the Military Training Department, who was in charge of registration, shouted again.

A tall man hurriedly stepped out of the crowd and stood in front of the stage. Li Dongming glanced at this person and nodded secretly.

"What's your name?"

"I'm called Iron Bull." This man's voice was like a bell, and his mouth was foaming.

"Where?" Li Dongming wiped the foaming stars on his face, and his tone became a little unkind.

"A native of Ma'ao Village, Dengfeng County, Henan."

"Have you ever been in the army?"

"No, I have practiced martial arts in Shaolin Temple, and I can lift a stone mill of 300 catties, can"

"Alright, alright, don't waste time. Go for it. Li Dongming pointed to the stone lock next to him.

The big man named Tie Niu looked at it and muttered, "Can you change to a bigger one?" ”

The crowd waiting in line suddenly exploded when they heard this, this stone lock is close to 100 catties, many people are worried that they can't pass this test, and then change to a bigger one, isn't that fatal?

"Hey, do you try, if you don't try, go away, don't delay."

"That's it, go away."

The crowd began to clamor. The big man saw that he provoked the anger of the public, roared, ran over and picked up the big stone lock, raised it in the air with one hand, and shook it a few times like waving a flag, it didn't feel like he was lifting the stone lock, but like he grabbed a chicken and was showing off to his friends, this scene shocked the eyes of the people at the scene. Silent.

Bah, the big man threw it casually, and the stone lock slammed into the ground and split into two pieces.

For this act of vandalism. Not only were the people waiting for the test dissatisfied and denounced in groups, but even Li Dongming, who was in charge of recruitment, also sternly complained: "What do you have to do? The army mainly relies on coordinated operations, not on the strength of individuals. You smashed the stone lock, where can I find another stone lock? Can I recruit this soldier? ”

"Adult, villain, villain, didn't mean it."

"Didn't mean to? I think you're made into your heart."

Qin Mu, who was standing on the periphery, saw that Li Dongming was a little angry. With a command to the guards around him, Li Shi hurriedly came out of the crowd, and Li Dongming realized that Qin Mu was actually in the crowd on the periphery, and he sighed in his heart, and hurriedly closed his voice.

After Li Shi whispered to him, Li Dongming said to the big man: "Okay, you have passed the test, stand on the right." ”

"How many other things don't need to be tested?" Dahan is still a little uncertain.

"No need." Li Dongming responded, and secretly said in his heart that he was still a fart, and he was hurt by you.

Li Dongming knew very well that Qin Mu valued efficiency and problem-solving ability, and he blamed recruits for a stone lock like this, which brought the recruitment work to a standstill, although Qin Mu didn't say anything on the spot, but his impression of him was greatly discounted after all.

The big man called Tie Niu didn't care about this, he was very happy when he heard that there was no need to test it anymore, and looked at the background where Qin Mu led a team of people and horses to roar away, thoughtfully.

Qin Mu's current focus is still on training the army, and he also attaches great importance to the work of recruiting new soldiers, and has set up nearly 10 recruitment points in Jingzhou, Wuchang, Jiujiang and other places.

Time was already running out for him.

When entering the city gate, Li Shi finally couldn't help but say, "My lord, do you want to change someone to recruit troops?" ”

"Let's see before we act. Let the training camp pay close attention to training, and after the recruitment of recruits is completed, let them go to serve as the chief commander, the general banner, and the hundred households. ”

"My lord, it's only been half a year since the teaching battalion was formed, isn't this a bit hasty?"

"That's it."

For the soldiers in the teaching battalion, Qin Mu was carefully selected at the beginning, and he personally taught him for more than half a year, so loyalty should not be a problem.

Back to the palace, after having lunch with Li Xiangjun and the three daughters, they went to the octagonal pavilion by the water to cool off.

He was sleeping in a daze, when a maid came to him and reported: "Master, there is a word coming from outside, saying that an imperial envoy named Zhou Yuantai in the court has come to see you, master?" ”

"Zhou Yuantai?" Qin Mu opened his sleepy eyes, and after thinking about it, he remembered that this was a person he met at Jiang Yueguang's family banquet, what did Zhou Yuantai suddenly come to Wuchang for?

"You go out and let Li Shi bring people here."

"Yes, sir."

As soon as Yahuan went out, Qin Mu immediately patted Qiao'er beside him and urged: "Go quickly, let Sister Xiangjun and Sister Xiaowan take the maids at home, take the piano music, wine and food, come over quickly." ”

"Childe, what are you going to do?"

"Come on, Childe, I suddenly want to indulge in wine, this song is going to be sung, dancing is going to be danced, go quickly."

"Oh"
