Reborn as a tyrant in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 91 Suppressing Bandits

"Your Majesty, Xiong Tingbi, pays homage to His Majesty!"

Xiong Tingbi, who was ordered to enter the palace, came to Dongnuang Pavilion to meet the Holy Spirit. When he saw the British Duke Zhang Weixian and the Minister of War Yuan Keli were waiting in front of the emperor, and their expressions were so serious, Xiong Tingbi knew that something big was going to happen!

"Look at this memorial."

Zhu Youxiao's cold eyes were fixed on Xiong Tingbi who was bowing and saluting, and he said in a cold tone.

Could it be related to Jingying?

When Xiong Tingbi heard what the emperor said, he couldn't help but think more about it. After all, what he had done in the Beijing camp before was to boil down all the personal guards under the command of the various generals and schools in the Beijing camp. Although it was to condense a truly elite army, Xiong Tingbi does have some hidden thoughts.

In the past, I was really afraid of falling into trouble.

Even if the emperor pardoned him and appointed him to assist in the military affairs of the capital, there were some bottom lines that Xiong Tingbi did not know how to handle.

After all, the emperor asked him to reorganize the capital camp in order to personally conquer and build captives in the future. No matter how well the emperor's clear "strategy against Liao" was planned, if it could not actually lead to the fall, it would be empty talk after all.

Having been ups and downs in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty for so long, Xiong Tingbi was very aware of the tricks involved, and he was even more aware of the virtues of certain bureaucrats. If the emperor did not have an unwavering determination, there would be no discussion of the imperial commander's personal conquest.

During this period of time in the capital camp, Xiong Tingbi had been watching silently. The emperor did not punish him in any other way because of the public turmoil between the government and the public. This also made Xiong Tingbi firm up his mind.

But now there seems to be a change.

Ok?

Xiong Tingbi, who was originally thinking a lot, was stunned when he took the memorial in front of him and opened it and saw the content on it.

Isn't it a Jingying matter? !

Is there banditry in Gyeonggi?

Xiong Tingbi was astonished in his heart. After a brief daze, he flipped through the memorial with a slight frown. After reading the content written above, Xiong Tingbi fell into deep thought.

The atmosphere of Dong Nuan Pavilion becomes subtle.

Zhang Weixian and Yuan Keli looked at the silent Xiong Tingbi from time to time. They all knew that the emperor summoned Xiong Tingbi to the palace because he wanted to mobilize troops from the capital camp to suppress the banditry in the capital.

But the question is, can the current Jingying camp really be able to shoulder this responsibility?

"Your Majesty, if what is written in this memorial is true, I feel that the Zhao Ni bandits who led their troops to ravage Changping, Shunyi and other places must not be less than ten thousand in number!"

I don't know how much time passed, but Xiong Tingbi said with a serious expression: "It can even be said that this so-called Zhao Ni bandit is composed of several groups of bandits. Zhao Ni, who calls himself the King of Heaven, is probably the largest group among them. Like this one. Bandits of this size are roaming around, and it is really difficult to eradicate them all depending on the local area."

"Why are the Qing family so determined?"

Zhu Youxiao leaned forward, looked at Xiong Tingbi and said: "There are bureaus in Changping, Shunyi and other places. The urgent report sent to the Ministry of War clearly stated the size of the bandits, which is only a few thousand at most."

"Your Majesty, if there were really only a few thousand people, the soldiers and horses of Xuanfu Town would have suppressed them long ago."

Xiong Tingbi raised his hand and bowed: "I know these guys very well. I always report good news but not bad news to my superiors. The fault is that the noise caused this time is too big and may disturb Tianshou Mountain. I am afraid that some local officials will do it again." Don’t retaliate.”

You really dare to say that.

Zhang Weixian and Yuan Keli, who were standing, looked at Xiong Tingbi with different eyes.

"I think so too."

When the two of them were sighing, Zhu Youxiao narrowed his eyes and said: "The place is like this, so why is the center not the same? Now I have doubts about how many scandals are hidden in this world. Is it because I, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, am not the one?" knew!"

When talking about this, Zhu Youxiao slapped Yu An angrily.

"Your Majesty, I dare to ask for your order!"

Under such circumstances, Xiong Tingbi bowed before saying goodbye: "This time there is banditry in the capital, the imperial court should send a large army to suppress it. Zhao Ni cannot continue to wander around. I feel that we can send Huang Degong's troops to leave the capital to quell the rebellion."

"Xiong Xierong! Do you know what you are talking about?"

Zhang Weixian, who knew the actual situation, stood up and objected: "Huang Degong's troops have not yet been organized, how can they go to suppress the rogue bandits?"

"The Englishman is right."

Yuan Keli followed closely and said: "The soldiers of the family under Huang Degong's command may be very strong, but they have not gotten along well after all. If anything goes wrong during this period, it will be a huge loss to the court."

The two people's worries are not unreasonable.

The personal guards under Huang Degong may all be capable of fighting, but they were forced to gather together after all.

Before Huang Degong can intimidate these tough soldiers and allow his subordinates to truly get used to each other, it is best not to go anywhere. If something goes wrong during the campaign against bandits and leads to a camp roar or mutiny among his subordinates, the consequences will be disastrous. .

Don't say anything else.

Just those soldiers who took advantage of the chaos to flee would be far more ruthless than the fleeing bandits once they started looting somewhere.

The key is that they are all warriors who have experienced the battlefield. If the above situation really happens, where will the imperial court dispatch the army to suppress it?

“Blow the drum with a heavy hammer!!”

Faced with the doubts and objections of the two men, Xiong Tingbi said: "If it were anyone else, I would never be like this, but Huang Degong is different!"

"No matter how different it is, this matter cannot be advanced like this."

Zhang Weixian frowned and said, "The imperial court cannot withstand any changes now."

"Then in accordance with the British public opinion, these bandits are allowed to roam the capital?"

Xiong Tingbi became angry and glared at Zhang Weixian: "The British Lord should know why the wandering bandits headed by Zhao Ni frequently appear in Changping, Shunyi and other places? Isn't that for the purpose of looting Mount Tianshou?"

"you!!"

Seeing Xiong Tingbi like this, Zhang Weixian became angry.

"enough."

Zhu Youxiao said calmly, and then looked at Xiong Tingbi, "What the British Lord told Yuan Qing was also for the consideration of the court. The Qing family is really sure that Huang De will lead his troops to suppress the bandits raging in the capital, and there will be no incidents during this period." misfortune?"

"I'm sure!"

Xiong Tingbi bowed in obeisance and said: "Huang Degong's troops have completed the registration. As long as the military discipline is clearly stated before sending out troops to conquer, if any troops dare to cause riots or even take advantage of the chaos to escape from the army, then they will be executed!! Take their families with them!" !”

This……

When Zhang Weixian and Yuan Keli heard this, they both looked at Xiong Tingbi in disbelief. They never expected that Xiong Tingbi would dare to say such a thing.

"Furthermore, a truly elite teacher cannot be trained through practice."

Xiong Tingbi continued: "That requires going to the battlefield to see blood. Huang Degong's soldiers do not need to drill at all. As long as military discipline is strictly enforced and rewards and punishments are clear, the imperial court can win their hearts back."

This is the real pillar that does practical work.

Zhu Youxiao remained unchanged on the surface, but he was filled with approval in his heart. Xiong Tingbi was right. Real elite teachers cannot be trained through drills. Drills are only the most basic. If you want to become a strong army who dares to fight, , that is, you need to go to the battlefield to constantly fight with powerful enemies.

No matter how much training a group of farmers engaged in production can get through, they will still be just a group of farmers, just farmers with good military discipline.

If you haven't seen blood or experienced battlefields, you can't call it an army, let alone a strong army that has fought hundreds of battles.

"Then condemn Huang Degong to lead his elite troops to suppress the bandits in the capital!"

Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao said with sharp eyes: "I will be waiting for the news of their triumph in the capital. If I can suppress this bandit, I will not be stingy with the reward!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Xiong Tingbi bowed and bowed.

This opportunity is really too rare. If Huang Degong can withstand the pressure and lead his elite troops to suppress the roving bandits, as long as the court can give corresponding rewards, then Xiong Tingbi will be sure to completely make this complex team come to an end. Gathered into a strong army loyal to the court.

With such a strong army, it will be much easier to organize the Beijing camp. He can even mobilize some elites from it to serve as low-level generals in various parts of the Beijing camp. However, all of this will have to wait until Huang De is able to suppress it. That’s it! !
