Chapter 53 Beijing Status Quo
"That's right, that's not okay. Even if it's the decree, it's still the emperor's intention."

Wu Xiang was indeed a very sensible person, "I will write a letter now, and I will ask him to recruit five thousand elite soldiers to help the capital, and to welcome the emperor and his courtiers to the south together."

"Not bad, not bad." Zhu Cixiang was satisfied after hearing this, and the smile on his face never stopped, "Old Taishan is really sensible and adaptable. My son-in-law admires him."

Zhu Cixiang really looked like he was going to issue a decree, so Wu Xiang had no doubts.

But in fact, what is the purpose? Would Emperor Chongzhen have the temperament of a Confucian emperor to do such an unruly thing?Wu Xiang, who had only been in Beijing for two days, didn't know about Emperor Chongzhen's temperament, so he was deceived by Lord Cixi and Wang Cheng'en. If it were an ordinary official in Beijing, everyone would think there was something fishy about this.

But I have to say that this autographed letter from Wu Xiang is really useful. When all the soldiers and horses arrived in Beijing, and then they were recruited by Lord Cixi and became his sword handler, he took this letter Show the letter to Emperor Chongzhen. Emperor Chongzhen had to hold his nose to recognize it, right?
What, Emperor Chongzhen may not recognize it?Our Prince Zhu is also a filial son, determined to be the filial son of the Ming Dynasty No. 20 Five Filial Piety through the ages, how could he disobey his father?

Emperor Chongzhen has nothing to say if he doesn't recognize Zhu Cixiang. At worst, he can just wait until Li Zicheng's troops arrive at the city and ask him again.

After Zhu Cixiang's operation, he actually made clear arrangements for Wu Xiang and his group. He originally planned to only ask for three thousand men, but now he has given two thousand more. Moreover, as long as these people fall into Zhu Cixiang's hands, they will not follow him in the future. It’s hard to say if Wu Xiang is a fool.

After all, in this Ming Dynasty world, only Zhu Cixiang can take people through time to a world with immortal cultivation resources. This is completely a white wolf with empty hands.

Zhu Cixiang was the prince in the Ming Dynasty, so he had great righteousness first. After going south, he still had money in his hands, and he also had the means to lead the big guys to find the method of immortality in the world of Yangshen. Who wouldn't like such a boss?Who would betray such a boss if he follows along?If you go south to the south of the Yangtze River, you will have money, women, and fields. Follow Zhu Cixiang into the world of Yangshen to work hard, and you can also win the secret of immortality.

Who doesn’t like longevity?Who will know who the Wu family is then?It doesn't matter whether you are a servant of the Wu family or Huang Degong's Yongweiying, as long as he, Prince Zhu, eats it, don't even think about spitting it out. Give him the surname Zhu!All become his soldiers!

"It's getting late. My father-in-law, Lao Taishan, and my brother-in-law haven't had breakfast, right? Can we have something together?"

It was only around six o'clock in the morning, and it was time for breakfast. Zhu Cihong turned to look at Wang Chengen, "Wang Banban, find a few eunuchs and give them some money to buy some food, wine and food."

"Okay, okay, okay. Someone is coming..."

Wang Chengen took the order and called several young eunuchs waiting far away to come in. Then he leaned into the ear of one of the young eunuchs and whispered the matter. The young eunuch went down, obviously to prepare.

"Prince, you are kidding. These are my godsons. Although they are not very good, they are very useful in doing some small things." Wang Chengen turned to Zhu Cixiang and smiled, "I asked them to go before The men were called in. Three hundred stronger fire eunuchs were selected from the Nanhai Zi Jing Army, and about [-] veterans from the Yongwei Camp also came. However, the veterans from the Yongwei Camp in Beijing were all older. , there are also old soldiers who are not suitable for joining the army, and there are also soldiers who have retired from the front line to recuperate from their injuries."

"There are also more than 100 people from Dongchang Tiqi. In addition, my godsons and godsons' families have also contributed money and efforts to recruit their own servants and some strong men in the capital. Mr. Chitose must have reached one thousand, they are waiting on the other side of the school grounds."

"Oh, Governor Wang is talking about the people on the inner campus. My subordinates saw them when they came here earlier."

After Wu Xiang heard what Wang Chengen said, he also said to Zhu Cihong, "Master Qiansui, the people Governor Wang has found look pretty good. At least they are all quite strong. They are better than those captured with a few copper coins on the city gate." The soldiers guarding the city are much stronger."

not bad?Wang Chengen was quite happy to hear the first half of Wu Xiang's words, thinking that Wu Xiang would give him some kind words to the crown prince, but then came a soldier who was much better than the soldiers who were captured with a few copper coins to defend the city?This made Wang Chengen very angry, but since the prince was nearby, and Wu Xiang was now the future head of state, he could only hold back his anger.

But Wu Xiang is right. Who are the 1000 people Wang Chengen brought? They are all eunuchs, veterans, Dongchang fans used to spy on intelligence, and handymen who look after homes and nursing homes, as well as The ordinary passers-by around Beijing are simply a ragtag group of people, none of them can be beaten!

However, Wu Xiang is still an old military leader who has led troops for many years, and he still understands something. "There are still some old soldiers in the Yongwei camp who look fierce and murderous. This makes the fire eunuchs of Zijing Army and Dong The Changti Cavalry are far away from them, but although these people are loose, if they are organized into generals with the servants brought by the minister as the core and the veterans of the Yongwei Camp as the tail, there is still a way to turn these 1000 people into generals. It’s an army, and as long as Governor Wang’s guys are in place, they can still have the power to defend the city or break through the siege.”

"Yes, my son-in-law still values ​​the servants brought by my father-in-law."

Zhu Cixiang nodded when he heard the words, "There are many people in Beijing now, and there are few generals. As long as money is poured out, there will be a lot of people. But how can we make these people not afraid of death and be willing to resist? This is We need to coordinate and make arrangements.”

"The war outside is chaotic. Men who can make a living outside and then return to Beijing to continue to make a living are still strong. And there are quite a lot of such people in Beijing at present. The nobles in Beijing have many men. The servants must be able to eat well. There are always military families in the Yongwei camp, and martial arts schools that have been practicing martial arts for generations. Aren’t these all about force, and only generals are not enough. There can only be one general. There are tens of thousands of incarnations, so the most important thing now is officers. Officers must be used to organize these people, officers must be used to convey the general's orders to the strong men, and military discipline must be used to restrain them. Officers must be used to manage these strong soldiers so that they do not want to Be lazy, so that you can have a chance to use it without losing its control."

"His Highness still understands military affairs. With such insights, His Highness is indeed someone who can do great things. I hope the Ming Dynasty will be rejuvenated."

 what's going on.I have collected more than 100 books, and there is no recommended book list or anything, so I am confused.
