Chapter 3 He's Not a Good Man
Zhang Hao heard his father's voice coming from behind, and knew that he would take this opportunity to kill Qiu Luan, otherwise the people in the capital would suffer.
Qiu Luan would not command the Tatars at all. After all, the city walls of the capital were tall and the Tatar soldiers could not attack at all, so there was no problem in defending the capital, but it would have suffered the people outside the city. The majesty of the Ming Dynasty would also be wiped out, so he threw the hammer away, and the hammer went straight to Qiu Luan's head, which scared Qiu Luan backed up repeatedly, but there was no hammer flying at a fast speed, and the hammer hit Qiu Luan's chest.
With a "Ah!", Qiu Luan spitted blood and poured it backwards, and then the hammer landed on the ground and hit Qiu Luan's feet. A second howl came.
"General, General!" The generals brought by Qiu Luan and the lieutenants protected Qiu Luan one after another, and some people were even holding swords at Zhang Hao.
"Stop, stop!" Zhang Rong shouted loudly, and also stood in front of Zhang Hao.
The same is true for Zhang Rong's subordinates.
"General, General!" Qiu Luan's subordinates were anxious to support Qiu Luan, but as soon as they helped him up, Qiu Luan shouted with a very painful expression.
Zhang Hao knew that Qiu Luan must have broken his ribs by himself.
"General, you, hey, tell me, what's going on?" Zhang Rong was so anxious at this moment. His son beat General Pinglu, who had not yet taken office, would be terrible. Maybe he would be beheaded by Jiajing.
He has served Jiajing for fifteen years. He knows very well what kind of person Jiajing is.
"General, the major general just sat here. This man called us to drag him down. We didn't move. He was going to send these people to kill the major general. The major general fought back, and that's it!" A personal guard at the door bowed and said.
"You...you don't know how to persuade?" Zhang Rong shouted in a blazing voice.
"General, we are not too late. This man came over and wanted to kill the major general. Before we could speak, we started!" The guard continued to speak.
"Major General?" At this moment, a general brought by Qiu Luan looked at Zhang Rong and asked.
"He is my second son, Zhang Yuande and Zhang Hao!" Zhang Rong looked at Qiu Luan and the others and said.
"What?"
"Puff~" Zhang Rong just finished speaking, and everyone on Qiu Luan was so surprised. Qiu Luan vomited blood in anger and fainted. How could he not faint? He was calculating with a fool and suffered such a big loss, and it was not enough to make people laugh at him if he spread it!
"Come here, go and ask the imperial doctor, and also control Hao'er!" Zhang Rong knew that there was trouble at this moment, so he immediately arranged the arrangements.
Several personal guards went over to catch Zhang Hao. Zhang Hao looked at Zhang Rong with a grievance: "Dad, why are you catching me? He wants to kill me, can't I fight back?"
"Shut up, take it down, wait for the trip!" Zhang Rong glared at Zhang Hao with a sad face, and then asked his personal guard to take him down.
"Major General, come with us quickly, just leave it to the general!" A personal guard said to Zhang Hao.
When Zhang Hao thought about it, he let the personal guards drag down.
"Duke of England, what should I do now? When the Tatars conquers Beijing, I see what you want to apologize!" A general from Qiu Luan pointed at Zhang Rong and shouted loudly.
Zhang Rong was very angry at this time, but now he was the one who was in the wrong, so he stopped talking and could only wait for the imperial doctor to come.
Soon, Qiu Luan was seriously injured and reported to Jiajing.
"What did you say? The Pinglu General I just appointed was seriously injured? Or was he injured outside the central army tent?" Jiajing has been unintentionally practicing Taoism in the past two days, and has been sitting on the side of Xiyuan, controlling the military.
Minister of War Ding Rukui knelt down below and reported on the matter.
"There is indeed such a matter. It is probably because the British Duke condoned the soldiers and injured Qiu Luan. He also asked the emperor to investigate strictly. Qiu Luan was the best general. Now that this situation occurs, what should we do next?" Ding Rukui knelt there and said.
"Okay, okay, Zhang Rong dares to be so bold, ah, someone is here!" Jiajing was so angry that he was so angry that he had already slapped him in the face when the Tatars came to the capital.
"I am here!" Lu Bing, the commander of the Jinyiwei, walked up to him.
"Go and find out for me!" Emperor Jiajing was furious at this time.
"Yes!" Lu Bing nodded and withdrew.
"Your Majesty, what should I do in the city defense in the capital? Who should I choose?" Ding Rukui asked again at this moment. This is a big deal! Jiajing had no good candidates for a while, so he looked at Ding Rukui.
"Your Majesty, there are not many generals in the capital now, and General Qiu Luan has not been able to take over the guards of the capital. I'm afraid that others will not be able to go!" Ding Rukui was not kind enough, but in his words, Zhang Rong firmly controlled the garrison in the capital. If others go, they cannot mobilize the troops.
"You go, you go to command yourself and take over the guards of the capital!" Emperor Jiajing immediately pointed at Ding Rukui and said.
"Ah...this...yes!" Ding Rukui didn't expect that Jiajing actually let him take over. He was a little panicked and didn't know how to command. Being the Minister of War was entirely due to Yan Song's good words in front of Emperor Jiajing. He knew very well that he had some skills.
"Everything goes down!" Jiajing said irritably.
The officials who were kneeling here kowtowed immediately and then retreated.
Emperor Jiajing stood up, and the eunuch of the Sili Principal Lu Fang came to support Emperor Jiajing.
"Zhang Rong is so bold that he dares to kill Qiu Luan?" Jiajing asked, still suspicious.
I know what kind of person Zhang Rong is and definitely dare not do such a big and bad thing.
"I'm afraid there is a misunderstanding, so Zhang Rongsu is cautious!" Lu Fang replied immediately.
"What should we do? Who will command the war? There are only 50,000 troops in the capital, and 20,000 or 30,000 of them are used by various prefectures. Zhang Rong had a memorial before, hoping to strictly train those soldiers and take back the mailboxes arranged by various prefectures!" Jiajing regretted a little, regretted not listening to Zhang Rong.
The current garrison in the capital is seriously insufficient in training, and the royal army from all over the country has not arrived yet. If the capital is broken by the Tatars, they will become the king of the country.
When Lu Bing arrived at the Central Army tent, he found that Zhang Rong was no longer in the Central Army tent, and Qiu Luan was taken away for treatment.
Zhang Rong was worried that the city defense would be incorrect, so he led the generals to continue patrolling the city defense.
Lu Bing had no choice but to find Zhang Rong on the city wall. At this time, Ding Rukui also arrived on the city wall.
"Duke of England, the emperor has an order to let me take over the city defense of the capital!" Ding Rukui came to Zhang Rong and spoke.
Zhang Rong sighed. Ding Rukui had some skills, and he knew very well. If he had given it to him, even if the capital was not destroyed, the people outside the city would probably be burned, killed and robbed.
"Duke of England, let me go and take your Zhang Manzi with you!" Lu Bing said to Zhang Rong at this moment.
"Yes, Shangshu Ding, I'll leave it to you here. My colleagues, you must listen to Shangshu Hou's orders!" Zhang Rong did not dare to resist. At this time, resist, so he would wait for the whole family to behead him, so he explained to his colleagues.
"Dude..." The generals were very anxious. Although Zhang Rong's personal force was not worth it, he still had a good command. Those generals followed him and were not afraid of being cheated to death. However, if Qiu Luan or Ding Rukui came to command, they were very frustrated and they would not be able to command.
"Okay, follow the order!" Zhang Rong refused to let them continue, worried that the more they said, the more trouble they were.
I still need to meet the emperor and explain it clearly to the emperor.
Soon, Zhang Rong and Zhang Hao were escorted to the Xiyuan by the Jinyiwei.
"My minister Zhang Rong, I have met the emperor!" Zhang Rong said and knelt down.
Zhang Hao looked at Emperor Jiajing at this moment, very thin, looking weak, but his eyes were bright and majestic.
"Hao'er, kneel down!" Zhang Rong saw that Zhang Hao was still standing there and did not move, and immediately scolded him.
Zhang Hao finally realized and immediately knelt down.
"Zhang Rong, you...you...what do you want to do?" Jiajing sat on it and pointed at Zhang Rong and shouted.
"Your Majesty, this is all a misunderstanding. After receiving the order from General Pinglu, I went to the Central Army to wait. My Haoer was guarding outside the account. You know, Emperor Haoer, you know that he might be tired. After all, he was knocked out by the Tatar soldiers yesterday, so he sat down and rested outside the Central Army to the Central Army.
I happened to meet the General Pinglu. He saw my Hao'er sitting there, and was very angry, so he wanted to kill Hao'er. Hao'er rose up to resist, and...that happened...this thing happened!" Zhang Rong knelt there and told Jiajing about the cause of the incident.
"What? Zhang Manzi was injured?" Emperor Jiajing looked surprised when he heard this.
He was actually injured by Zhang Manzi. What else can I say? So Jiajing looked at Lu Bing.
"Back to the emperor, this matter...is indeed!" Lu Bing nodded and said.
He went to ask the general around Qiu Luan, which was exactly what Zhang Rong said.
Jiajing was helpless and turned to look at Zhang Hao who was kneeling there.
"Zhang Hao, do you know your guilt?" Jiajing scolded Zhang Hao.
"He wants to kill me, can't I resist? He doesn't ask any questions and kills people as soon as he comes!" Zhang Hao looked up at Jiajing and replied.
"No, he...you!" Jiajing felt that his mind was a little too weak at this moment, and he couldn't figure out what Qiu Luan was thinking and how he wanted to kill Zhang Hao.
"Then you just hit him?" Jiajing continued to stare at Zhang Hao and shouted.
"Well, he is not a good person!" Zhang Hao nodded affirmatively and said.
"Hao'er, don't talk nonsense!" Zhang Hao immediately scolded Zhang Hao, who was immediately scolding him, could not speak nonsense in front of the emperor.
"I'm not a good person. I heard many soldiers say that the Tatars were going to attack Datong in June. After Qiu Luan found out, he sent someone to send a lot of money to the Tatar Khan. The Tatars retreated from Datong and turned to the capital. If it weren't for him, the Tatars wouldn't have come to the capital!" Zhang Hao knelt there, pretending to be angry and shouted, thinking to himself, "I can't kill you, but I dare to kill me."
"What did you say?" Jiajing suddenly stood up and stared at Zhang Hao.
"Hao'er, you! Your Majesty, please forgive me. Hao'er said it from the truth, you can't take it seriously!" Zhang Rong was scared and thought to himself, where did this bastard hear it? Why haven't he heard of such a rumor?
