Chapter 1434 Shocking Change (3)

His Majesty the Emperor sat on the throne expressionlessly, and all the officials were also in a daze. Everyone was waiting for the news that the rebellion would be wiped out.In the silence, suddenly there was a stumbling sound. This sound did not come from outside the hall, but from inside the hall.

With the sound of footsteps, an old servant, that is, the eunuch, rushed in with a face full of panic. His feet suddenly intersected in a hurry, causing him to fall to the ground. He didn't bother to get up, and even crawled to the emperor in front of.

The emperor and the ministers were shocked to see the appearance of the head of the bedroom.

Although the head of the palace is just a small boss in charge of the emperor's bedroom, his power is greater than the head of the palace, because all the secrets of the empire are hidden in the emperor's bedroom.

The bedroom chief didn't wait for the emperor to speak, and said eagerly: "Your Majesty! The Cangbing Pavilion has been opened!"

"What!" Everyone present knew where the Cangbing Pavilion was, and they all exclaimed with pale faces.

The Cangbing Pavilion, as the name suggests, is where the soldiers are collected, but not the collection of people, but the place where the family information of the soldiers of the empire is stored. In other words, it is the place where the hostage information is stored. Careerists cannot win over the guarantee of a military rebellion!

Now this place has been opened by someone?As long as this place is destroyed, it means losing the hostages that threaten the soldiers of the entire empire. As long as the soldiers and their acquaintances don't tell, no one will know who their family members are, that is, they can rebel without any worries!When the emperor heard the news, his whole body was on the verge of collapse. He gasped violently, stammered and said with difficulty: "Go...Secret Guard...Let me go..."

Out of the dozen or so black-clothed men who were hiding somewhere, two suddenly appeared and disappeared after a salute.

Such a strange performance surprised most people, and they were even more terrified. His Majesty's personal bodyguard is actually called secret guard?And actually possess such unpredictable abilities?It's really amazing, it seems that we need to be more careful in the future.

And those who were loyal to the country, such as the prime minister and the marshal, were anxious and worried. The worries of the imperial soldiers disappeared. Could the empire still effectively control so many soldiers?
Who did this thing?Prince?Impossible, they clearly lost the Cangbing Pavilion, so what if they won the throne?According to the principle of conspiracy to gain profits, only the chief officials of the frontiers, the heads of the legions, and the great nobles from all over the country would act in this way, because in this way they can firmly control the troops in their hands.

Alas, the empire is in troubled times.The marshal and the prime minister looked at each other, and they both saw bitterness in each other's eyes, so they could only shake their heads shyly.

His Majesty the Emperor didn't wait too long, and his bodyguard brought back a pile of ashes.The ashes already represented everything. Looking at the ashes, His Majesty the Emperor stretched out his hand with a dull expression, then rolled his eyes and fell down.

There was another burst of chicken and dog jumping, but this time the imperial doctor was not so skilled, and could only give an answer that the emperor was in a coma and needed to recuperate.Under the command of the prime minister, the evening court ended and everyone scattered to go home.

Although the prime minister and the marshal warned everyone not to spread the news, it was only dawn that the information of the Tibetan Army Pavilion was reduced to ashes and the news that the emperor was out of breath and unconscious spread throughout the imperial capital, and then spread to the entire empire at an incredible speed.

Generally, people who know the news just have thoughts about whether the emperor will die and who the new emperor will be.But people who know what the information of the Cangbing Pavilion is, especially those who hold military power, start to have big and small bubbles in their hearts.

And Zhao Hu came to the provincial capital when the news spread throughout the empire.

Entering the boundary of the provincial capital, they immediately found the people of Jinwen City. They occupied a piece of wasteland and were preparing to build a town.Seeing his own soldiers, the people immediately cheered, but after Zhao Hu took the surviving subordinates and sent back the relics and ashes of the martyrs, thousands of families mourned and wept.

After being busy, Zhao Hu had the opportunity to ask Sun Jie what happened. Unfortunately, Sun Jie couldn't find out other secrets. He only knew that the people of Jinwen City were rejected by other cities all the way, and finally had to come to the provincial capital.

Although the provincial government accepted it, it only allocated a piece of wasteland and left them to fend for themselves.

As for the news of the bandit invasion, no one paid any attention to it. Instead, it was found that all the regular troops had assembled in the provincial capital, and the chief officials of the county governments had also rushed back.Then there was a long meeting in the provincial capital where the military and the government were separated, and the meeting has not yet ended.

After Zhao Hu heard this, before he could speak, Zhou Wen was very dissatisfied and said to Sun Jie first: "What's the matter? Why can't you even get any information with 3000 people with you? It's really useless!"

Just as Sun Jie was about to explain, his personal guards came in and reported: "My lord, the head of the division has sent an envoy to ask you to go to the division headquarters to attend the meeting immediately."

"Okay." Zhao Hu replied.

Zhao Hu brought Zhou Wen, Sun Jie and several other cronies to the division headquarters in the city.

There was already a colonel waiting at the door. When he saw Zhao Hu saluting him, he was stunned for a moment. After returning the salute, he quickly said to Zhao Hu enthusiastically, "Major Zhao Hu? The division commander has been waiting for you for a long time, please Enter."

Walking into the gate, I immediately saw several lieutenants staring closely at my group. Everyone knew the rules of this place, so they untied their weapons and handed them over to these lieutenants.

The colonel waiting at the side smiled and continued to lead the way. When he came to a room with two majors guarding the door and the door was closed, the colonel stopped again. Zhou Wen, Sun Jie and others retreated to the side knowingly. Under the leadership of the colonel, he entered the room.

When Zhao Hu walked into the room, the room was full of officers as soon as he saw him. Zhao Hu took a quick glance and found that the lowest rank was colonel, there were fourteen of them, ten were senior colonels, and five were major generals.Seeing this, Zhao Hu was taken aback. The nearly 30 people present were all army chiefs, and none of the chief of staff, chief of military police, etc. was present.

Moreover, Zhao Hu was also very sensitive to discover that among so many people, the most arrogant were not the major generals, but the school officials. Among the school officials, the five major generals not only did not have the demeanor of a superior, but seemed a bit pissed off. restraint.

Seeing Zhao Hu's appearance, the officers present were obviously taken aback, and most of them were staring at the major rank on Zhao Hu's shoulder.

A colonel near the door frowned and was about to yell at him, but the major general of the Fifth Brigade came forward and stopped him with a smile: "Don't make a fuss, he is Zhao Hu, one of our own."

"Hello, sir." Zhao Hu saluted.

The colonel, who is at least middle-aged and above, squeezed out a false smile when he heard the words, and waved his hands with a bit of a smile: "So you are Zhao Hu, you are welcome, everyone is one of us, I am the fifth brigade The captain of the [-]th brigade." After finishing speaking, he didn't sign up, and just nodded to the head of the [-]th brigade, and left naturally.

Zhao Hu was obviously taken aback when he saw the other party's behavior. It's normal for the captain of the fourth regiment to be rude to him, but why did he dare to treat his immediate superior like this?Just one resignation without consent is a violation of military regulations.

Seeing Zhao Hu's expression, the head of the brigade gave a slightly bitter smile, and said in a low voice: "Don't be surprised, after the incident in the imperial capital, the regiment captain who held the military power immediately became much more arrogant."

"Emperor capital incident?" Zhao Hu was taken aback again. He just came back, and Sun Jie was recruited here before he had time to report the situation. He didn't know what happened at all.

"You don't know? It's the incident where the household registration data of the soldiers in the imperial capital were burned. After these materials were burned, it was equivalent to losing the reason to threaten the soldiers. Because the empire is so big and there are so many soldiers, once their household registration data is lost, even if they rebel. It won’t cause any trouble to the family,” said the brigade leader.

"Uh, even if the data is destroyed, can't it just be edited again? Is it that exaggerated?"

Zhao Hu was still in a daze. He couldn't figure it out. If the soldier's household registration and birth information were missing, the soldier dared to rebel openly?If this could happen, wouldn't the centuries-old rule of the empire be false?
"Everyone knows this truth, but most generals in command are unwilling to rewrite the data." The head of the brigade lowered his voice.

"Actually, it's useless for the commander of the division or regiment to be willing. You have seen the performance of the commander of the fourth regiment just now. Those officers who really master the troops will not be willing to rewrite the materials.

"You must know that after losing the household registration restriction, the soldiers under them are now their private soldiers, and they are the capital of their struggle for power. How dare they shoot themselves in the foot!"

Zhao Hu was speechless when he heard the words. The largest empire in the world was burned because of the household registration information of the soldiers, and the officers with real power below have a different heart?The deterrent power of the empire is too bad, right?
The head of the brigade didn't know what was going on, and continued to say with a look of confidence to Zhao Hu: "You don't have to be surprised, noble people like you who live in the imperial capital don't know the following things.

"If it weren't for the system of military household registration and remote garrison, which ensured that soldiers would not dare to rebel for fear of hurting their families, the entire empire would have been torn apart decades ago."

Hearing this, Zhao Hu looked at the head of the brigade in surprise.How could he say that?Does the empire have unusual hidden dangers?Why doesn't your own intelligence system have any clues?

But thinking that both he and the secret guards are outsiders, not powerful figures born and bred in the empire, it is very normal for them to not know the secrets of the empire, so they listened attentively to the brigade leader's words.It's just that Zhao Hu is a little strange, he doesn't seem like a talkative person as the head of the brigade, why is he so enthusiastic about explaining to himself?
