Chapter 979
The conflict between the Jin Yiwei and the Forbidden Army has been around for a long time, mainly due to the overlap in functionality and role positioning between the two.

Both are troops directly under the emperor. They do not listen to orders from the Ministry of War. Instead, the emperor directly issues instructions. They can directly reach Tianting. This has also led to the importance of the two rising sharply, but problems have also arisen. Come.

Different from the three major factories in the inner palace, strictly speaking, the Imperial Guard and the Forbidden Army are organizations composed of foreign men, and they both have the attributes of the army, and they are also responsible for protecting the emperor's safety.

The only difference between the two is that the Imperial Guards protect the emperor's direct personal safety, and their activities are under the emperor's nose, while the Jin Yiwei protects the emperor's indirect personal safety, and their main activities are in the secrets of the capital and the world where the emperor cannot see.

As for who is more important, the Forbidden Army or the Imperial Guard, who can gain the emperor's trust more, and who is more recognized in the emperor's heart, the disputes surrounding these issues have not stopped since the establishment of the Imperial Guard.

The history of the Forbidden Army can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. At that time, the Forbidden Army was not responsible for fighting. Their main job was to serve as the honor guard for the princes. In short, they were the guards to support the appearance.

In fact, the actual combat effectiveness of the Imperial Guard troops in the past dynasties was very average. On the surface, they were the most elite troops in the world, but this elite was limited to weapons and equipment.

As for the selection of personnel, as the army that directly defends the emperor on the bedside, the requirements for these soldiers' innocence and good appearance are far higher than the demand for their actual combat power.

But even so, the combat power of the Forbidden Army is sufficient for the needs of certain special events, such as palace coups.

As the army responsible for guarding the forbidden areas of the palace and city, the Forbidden Army is actually the army with the most number of coups and successful coups. Because of their innate status advantage, all ambitious people who plan to have a coup will immediately win over them.

The combat power of the Forbidden Army is absolutely sufficient to deal with these incidents, because they often have to deal with the unarmed Tianhuang nobles or the incompetent elders and their few servants.

But for the Forbidden Army to deal with Jin Yiwei, an elite army in every sense of the word, this is obviously too high a requirement for them.

From the first day when the top soldiers of the Forbidden Army started training, they had never received such a plan, that is, someone dared to challenge them at the foot of the capital city during the period when the imperial power was at its peak.

Compared with the complicated selection criteria of the Forbidden Army, the selection criteria of Jinyiwei are much simpler. The first priority is ability, and the second is family background.

Even if Ying Wushang, who comes from a poor family, can sit in the position of Qianhu, this is the biggest difference between the Jinyi Guards and the Forbidden Army.

At the same time, this also led to differences in mutual understanding between the two. The Imperial Guards believed that the Imperial Guards should not dare to fight against them, while the Imperial Guards believed that the Imperial Guards should have some knowledge.

Such differences in perceptions eventually led to the farce that silenced everyone in the capital today.

Mr. Yan Feng, a member of the Jinyi Guards, showed off his might. Regardless of the brick he initially used, he beat up more than a dozen elite Forbidden Army soldiers, including Tao Yuanlang, almost with his bare hands.

Regarding the brick that Mr. Lu had not stated clearly, Yan Feng interpreted his meaning, which was to give the other party a good look.

So not only was he knocked unconscious by Tao Yuanlang with a wooden board, he also aimed at the heads of those around him who came forward to save them.

In the end, the Forbidden Army guards carried Tao Yuanlang, who rolled his eyes, with a bruised nose and face, and the group of people returned to the Forbidden Army camp in shame.I don’t know if they chose the route in a panic or if they did it deliberately. In short, the imperial army did not avoid the informants in the capital when they left, so in less than half a day, the whole capital knew about it.

While everyone marveled at the strength of Jin Yiwei's fighting power, they also continued to remain on the sidelines. After all, they didn't have the guts to let them interfere. It was better to stay away from the fight between gods.

Tao Yuanlang, who returned to the camp dejectedly, woke up from his coma and saw that his room was filled with commanders of the Forbidden Army, including the commander-in-chief Wen Kongheng who came in person. .

"Commander Tao is awake!" One of the brothers shouted, and everyone became energetic and swarmed around the bed.

Tao Yuanlang's heart was shattered. It was quite embarrassing for him to return home in defeat, especially when he was severely beaten by the other party. He was trying to regain his position, but now he was completely embarrassed. .

At this moment, facing the hesitant gazes of his colleagues, Tao Yuanlang really cried. After all, he didn't have much face left, so he didn't care about losing it again at this time.

"Commander, you have to make the decision for your brother!" Tao Yuanlang covered his aching head and cried to Wen Kongheng: "That Jin Yiwei is so lawless that he dared to do this to me in broad daylight. Where is this?" You are hitting me on the head, this is a slap in the face of our Imperial Army!"

Hearing this, everyone's expressions were not good-looking. Even if they thought Tao Yuanlang was a waste, the other party's words were rude or not. This time it was indeed Jin Yiwei who slapped the Imperial Army hard.

Wen Kongheng's face was also as dark as water. He frowned and said: "It's embarrassing, man, why are you crying! After all, you are also the commander of the forbidden army. What's the matter with you lying on the bed and replying? Come down!"

After being sternly scolded by the commander-in-chief, Tao Yuanlang was so ashamed that he wanted to dig a hole and bury himself. He did not dare to neglect and immediately got out of bed and knelt down.

"Explain what's going on." Wen Kongheng asked in a deep voice.

Tao Yuanlang shuddered as he recalled the leader's terrible act of exterminating relatives, and recounted the whole story.

Regarding the established facts, he did not deliberately add fuel to the fire. After all, Jin Yiwei's actions were already excessive, and there was no need for him to deliberately apply eye drops.

However, he still emphasized his motives very clearly. He couldn't bear to see the commander's child being bullied like this by Jin Yiwei, so he came to ask for an explanation out of righteous indignation.

After hearing this, Wen Kongheng frowned: "You said Jin Yiwei took Jin Zhi back to the imperial prison? Why?"

Tao Yuanlang was dumbfounded after hearing this. He opened his mouth without saying anything for a long time. The reactions of others were also very different. They thought that Wen Kongheng might not be angry, but they didn't expect that the other party didn't know at all this time. thing.

Although the time between the time when Jin Yiwei took the people and when Tao Yuanlang was beaten and sent back was very short, even in such a short time, those commanders of the Imperial Army who did not deliberately inquire about the news had received the news to some extent.

As a father, Commander-in-Chief Wen Kongheng didn’t hear the slightest bit of news. Apart from the outrageous situation that he was too busy to take care of housework, it could only be that Commander-in-Chief Wen didn’t care about his son at all. .
