The rise of the poor

Chapter 1489
The Japanese pirates are coming! It is a matter of wealth and life, and the news quickly spread throughout Yingtian City.

Shengping's peaceful life that had lasted hundreds of years was broken, the whole city was plunged into panic, and the people were in constant panic.There was no one on the street, and there was an atmosphere of panic. Occasionally, people would rush home as if they were fleeing. Some people hiding at home packed up their gold, silver, and soft bedclothes, and were ready to leave home to flee at any time. The door was locked one after another, and even urgently began to dig a cellar for hiding.
The only ones who are excited may be the hooligans on the street who are afraid of the chaos of the world. They have their eyes on the shops and wealthy households.

Compared with the ordinary people, the news in Yingtian's officialdom circle is more well-informed. The three giants of Yingtian City - Zhang Jing, Minister of the Ministry of War, He Sui, the guarding eunuch, and Xu Pengju, the Duke of Wei, who guarded Yingtian, urgently summoned the principals and deputy officers of Yingtian's large and small yamen The officials convened an emergency military meeting to discuss how to deal with the threat of Japanese pirates attacking the city of Shangyu.

The meeting was held at the Ministry of War.

All of a sudden, the first and second leaders of the large and small yamen in Yingtian City gathered in the yamen of the Ministry of War. Since the news of the Japanese pirates' killing was too important and urgent, and it was closely related to their black hats, if one was not handled well, the black yarn would be fatal if it was not taken care of. Bao, everyone shirks responsibility and blames each other, so that the military office is as noisy as a vegetable market.

"Hey, the damned Japanese pirates just came here." Some officials gnashed their teeth and cursed. "

"Why, do I have to say hello to you before the Japanese pirates come?!" Hearing this, an official immediately sneered.

"Hehe, the Japanese pirates didn't greet us, but someone did."

An official next to him quickly took over the conversation.

"Who?" asked the previous official.

"Putting the punishment according to the procuratorial envoy's gold affairs-Master Zhu Ping'an. Last time the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households and the generals gathered for a meeting. Although I was not present, I heard that Master Zhu Ping'an came to report the future of the Japanese pirates who landed in Shangyu. It's a pity that none of you present took it seriously, and even made him into a joke, such as haunted ghosts, etc., spread all over Yingtian, and made the whole city laugh at Mr. Zhu, "the current Zhao Kuo ', hehe, as a result, the Japanese pirates who landed in Shangyu really came! It is exactly the same as the emergency military situation reported by Mr. Zhu three days ago!" The official glanced at the military department and nearby military officers with a smile, and sneered.

As soon as the official's words fell, the entire meeting site fell into absolute silence!
Needle drop can be heard!
Almost all the officials present were flushed, especially the officials who participated in the meeting of the Ministry of War last time. Their faces were so red that they burned people. Thinking of how they laughed at Zhu Ping'an back then, they wished they could find a mouse hole to get in!
Who would have thought that the invasion of the Japanese pirates who landed in Shangyu would really be a big disturbance.Who knew that this gang of Japanese pirates was so ferocious. First, the [-] coalition troops suffered a major defeat, and then they hid for two days and broke through the Jiangning camp in one fell swoop, killing three or four hundred Jiangning soldiers, and even Zhu Xiang, who was known for his military exploits, was killed on the spot. , Jiang Sheng, the deputy commander who was born as a martial artist, was also seriously injured, and then captured Jiangning Town, burned, killed and looted, and went straight to Yingtian!
What a slap in the face!
Their faces were all swollen!
Hey, to be honest, they also regret at this moment, regret not listening to Zhu Pingan's urgent military situation!
Otherwise, why come here!
Now, it's not just about their face, it's about the face of Daming as a whole!
Japanese pirates attacked the capital of Ming Dynasty! Where is the face of Daming and the face of the Holy Majesty?!
This is a big deal!
After the meeting was quiet for a while, someone sighed and said, "Hey, it's too late to say anything now, the Japanese pirates have already been killed, so let's discuss countermeasures. It's never too late to make up for it."

"If you want to talk about countermeasures, there is nothing to say. As the saying goes, 'Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover'. When Japanese pirates are killed, then just block. We have a lot of barracks in Yingtian. We raise soldiers for a thousand days and use them for a while. Now we use them It's their time, just send them on."

"Master Wang, what do you mean? Why is it that our barracks are all responsible for the Japanese pirates? Isn't it the responsibility of your criminal department and other yamen? Do you think it is possible to clean yourself up at this time?!"

"Okay, okay, don't say a few words, there are eggs under the nest, this time the Japanese pirates attacked, no one can escape responsibility"

"Hehe, that's not necessarily true. Mr. Zhu Ping'an must not be responsible. He has notified the emergency military situation three days in advance. Unfortunately, no one pays attention to it. The precious time of these three days was wasted. If Mr. Zhu was taken seriously at that time The urgent military situation, how can there be today's disaster."

"I've said it all, it's too late to say anything now, hurry up and think about it, the Japanese pirates will kill the city right away!"

The scene was like a flock of ducks ushering in a vegetable market, quacking, quacking, and how noisy it was. Some officials even turned red and turned their heads, and rolled up their sleeves.

Zhang Jing, Minister of the Ministry of War, came from the outside together with He Sui, the guarding eunuch, and Xu Pengju, Duke of Wei Guo, who was guarding Yingtian, and happened to see this scene.Seeing the messy scene, Zhang Jing couldn't help but frowned and scolded, "Enough! They're all quiet. As court officials, how can they be so noisy!"

After Zhang Jing scolded, the officials at the scene immediately restrained a lot, and the scene became much quieter.

The guarding eunuch He Sui still had a grim expression on his face. He squinted his eyes and glanced at the officials at the scene, pointing at the orchid and said sadly, "The miscellaneous family, Lord Zhang and Wei Guogong called you here to discuss countermeasures, not to listen to you. Arguing. A group of Japanese pirates killed you and made you lose your sense of proportion and lose your dignity. How can you be a man like this? How can you share the worries of the Holy One? It’s better to go to the palace to serve the Holy Majesty and the nobles.”

After He Sui spoke, the officials present suddenly felt a cool breeze in their crotches, and subconsciously tightened their thighs.

Hearing He Sui say "castration", Li Tingzhu, Marquis of Linhuai, couldn't help but think of the youngest son in the family who is ignorant! These words reminded me of the past, and my teeth still itch at this moment.

Seeing that both Zhang Jing and He Sui had spoken, Wei Guogong wondered if he would say something too. He opened his mouth, but found that he didn't know what to say, so he coughed to stop the matter.

After the meeting was quiet, Zhang Jing and He Sui took the main seats, Wei Guogong took a second seat, and the rest of the officials sat according to their ranks.

"Everyone, now that the Japanese pirates from Shangyu have broken through the Jiangning camp and captured Jiangning Town, they are coming to kill me all the way. Can you teach me a good strategy?" He Sui couldn't bear to speak first.

Quiet.

The scene was quiet. At such a critical juncture, no one is willing to be the first bird for fear of taking responsibility and provoking further investigation.
