Chapter 111 Defense
Qin Zhao was stunned and said, "When did it happen?"
Qin Ning shook his head and said, "I heard the news when I went to Hengshan County to buy pigs in the morning. It is said that Zuo Liangyu originally wanted to attack Nanjing quietly, but he had a closed-door banquet in Anqing Mansion and was refused supplies. Zuo Liangyu was angry and led his troops to attack Anqing Mansion, and publicly posed a banner of clearing the monarch's side! He said he wanted to kill Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng."
"What is the purpose of clearing the king? Isn't it just to abolish the emperor for the Donglin Party? The emperor was the King of Fu before, but he couldn't get along with the Donglin Party. The Donglin Party instructed Zuo Liangyu to attack Nanjing."
"It is also said that Huang Degong, one of the four towns in Jiangbei, was transferred to Banji City to defend Zuo Liangyu."
"It is also said that the Tartars took advantage of the situation and attacked the four towns in Jiangbei, and the situation was extremely bad."
Qin Zhao blew the tea leaves and cursed: "The Donglin Party killed by heaven, and Zuo Liangyu killed by thousands."
Qin Ning sighed and said, "It is said that Zuo Liangyu is so angry that he is already terminally ill. He can't even ride a horse now, he is lying in the sedan chair and heading east."
Qin Zhao sneered and said, "This person will definitely be nailed to the pillar of shame."
Qin Zhao was drinking tea there, but suddenly saw four tikkas, the Jinyiwei, huddled with a Jinyiwei family, chasing them from behind.
When they rode to the post station, the Jinyiwei looked at Qin Zhao who was sitting there drinking tea, and said loudly: "The imperial edict has arrived! Where is Qin Zhao, a thousand households in Jinghai?"
Qin Zhao looked at it and found that it was Wang Gui, a hundred households of the Jinyiwei who issued the imperial edict to him last time!
However, last time Wang Gui only brought two people with him, and this time he brought four Tikkas.
Qin Ning and Zhao Liangce immediately smiled brightly and said together: "Master Qianhu, the imperial edict for promotion is here!"
Qin Zhao smiled and went up to salute and said, "Wang Baihu is fine."
Wang Gui, the official of the Jinyiwei family, jumped off his horse, held up the golden imperial edict, and said with a smile: "You have been chasing Mr. Qin! Mr. Qin can bring tooth sign seals? Let's show us?"
Qin Zhao handed over his tooth card and the defensive seal to Wang Gui.
Wang Gui actually recognized Qin Zhao. After looking at it for a moment, he returned the tooth seal to Qin Zhao with a smile, and said with a smile: "There are thousands of households in Jinghai, and Qin Zhao, the defense officer of Jinghai Fort in Xiangshan County, received the order!"
Qin Zhao swayed the front of his official robe and knelt on the ground.
Qin Zhao thought the fish scale armor was too hot, so he was not wearing armor at this time, and was wearing a fifth-rank military officer's regular clothes and official robes.
Wang Gui opened the imperial edict and read: "The emperor who followed the heavens and inherited the imperial edict, and said!"
"The Jinghai Qianhu District has thousands of households, and the Jinghai Fort defense officer Qin Zhao fought in Jiayu, and his achievements were great. I originally named Qin Zhao as a defensive officer, but my voice was still heard. I didn't expect Qin Zhao had made great contributions this time. I liked that Qin Zhao fulfilled his mission and demonstrated his national prestige! I specially promoted the Jinghai Qianhu District to be the Jinghai Guard, and promoted Qin Zhao to be the third-rank commander of the Jinghai Guard. I promoted Jinghai Fort to be the Jinghai Guard and Qin Zhao was the garrison of the Jinghai Guard."
Qin Zhao was stunned when he heard the words of the Jinyiwei.
After more than half a year of hard work in the officialdom, Qin Zhao also knew that the upper limit for promotion of military officers in the Ming Dynasty was to be promoted to three levels in a row. In fact, there were very few people who had to be promoted to three levels. Generally, someone had to be promoted to two levels, and then after three years of plan, two levels were promoted to two levels, and after three years of promotion to six levels.
However, this time, the emperor directly promoted Qin Zhao to level 4, from the fifth grade to the third grade.
After skipping the ethics position in the middle, Qin Zhao became the garrison directly.
It is really rare for the emperor to be so generous with the emperor.
Qin Ning and Zhao Liangce were already extremely excited, pushing and hushing down desperately. In the past, they were just a confidant of a thousand household officials, but now they suddenly became the confidant of the garrison master. The difference and leap among them are no longer a small matter, which is enough to make those who pursue official positions crazy.
Qin Zhao smiled and bowed and said, "The emperor's kindness is so great. I am willing to charge for the sage emperor and be willing to be the forefront!"
Hearing Qin Zhao's words, Wang Gui smiled. The central idea of this imperial edict was to make Qin Zhao grateful for the emperor's kindness. Now it seems that the expected effect has been achieved, and Wang Gui also gave an explanation when he returned.
Wang Gui handed the imperial edict to Qin Zhao and said, "Congratulations to Qin for his garrison!"
Qin Zhao smiled and took fifty taels of silver from Qin Ning and handed it over to Wang Gui.
Wang Gui was so happy that he was overjoyed. He was polite to Qin Zhao. In the end, he could not resist Qin Zhao's enthusiasm and accepted the money.
Then Wang Gui took over the new official robe, soap boots, jade belts and black hats from behind, and a new pair of tooth cards, a garrison official seal, and a pair of commander seals.
The garrison officer is also a well-known general under the battalion system, and the commander is even a third-rank military officer. In this way, the seal of the official is prepared by the Ministry of War and is no longer made by the officials.
Both seals are made of ivory, which look crystal clear and clean, and are very grand and beautiful.
Qin Zhao entered the back room of the inn and changed into a set of official robes in the room.
Suddenly, a third-rank military officer with a "leopard" patch appeared in front of everyone.
As soon as he saw Qin Zhao's new outfit, Qin Ning, Zhao Liangce, Huang Deneng, Qin Zheng and others knelt down. Even Wang Gui bowed and bowed for 60 degrees.
Qin Zhao laughed and helped Wang Gui and his four confidants to start.
Wang Gui smiled and said, "Governor Guardian, what I passed on this time is not an imperial edict, but a total of twelve imperial edicts. The emperor issued another imperial edict to Ding Kuichu, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and asked him to make the procedures for changing the account book. He also issued ten imperial edicts to the ten garrisons near Jinghaiwei, and let the ten garrisons move 560 flags to the Jinghaiwei of the Guardian."
Only then did Qin Zhao realize that even the emperor had considered himself, and said with a smile: "The angel is in trouble!"
Wang Gui bowed and bowed to Qin Zhao and said, "Shoujie, let's go to Guangdong to pass the imperial edict now. The Shoujie will lead his troops back to his hometown and walk the way!"
Qin Zhao smiled and said, "Angels are going well!"
Wang Gui didn't say much, jumped onto the horse and took four pirates to the south of the official road.
...
On May 20th, Qin Zhao and his party traveled day and night, and returned to Jinghai Fortress in a mighty manner.
The villagers of Qinjia Village have gathered at the fort gate of Jinghai Fort to welcome Qin Zhao to reunite.
Qin Youli was wearing a cocoon silk and stood in front of everyone with a smile.
The villagers of Qinjia Village were all overjoyed, after all, their interests were too tied to Qin Zhao's interests. Qin Zhao not only hired nearly a hundred Qinjia Village villagers to work in the factory, but also helped Qinjia Village's villagers to equalize their land tax. Qin Zhao's triumphant return means that Qinjia Village will become more prosperous in the future and enjoy the happy life that others are jealous of.
The soldiers from Qin Ning's First Battalion were advanced to Jinghai Fort. These soldiers were wearing captured chain mails, looking extremely elite, and their temperament was different from the new recruits when they went to war. Qin Ning rode a horse in front. As soon as he approached Jinghai Fort, he heard the villagers exclaiming "Wow" admiration.
Seeing Qin Ning riding on a tall horse, his body swaying left and right with the rhythm of the horse's marching, and looked like an old officer, the villagers below couldn't help but shout: "Sister Qin Ning! How many bandit soldiers were killed this time? How many soldiers from Qianhu Master's soldiers died in battle?"
Qin Ning smiled and said, "The thief is imprisoned, forget it if you call me a servant, you dare to call Master Shouji?"
Qin Ning shouted loudly: "Tell you! The thief prisoner, the guard received an imperial edict on Huguang Road a month ago. Now he has been promoted to four levels in a row and serves as the commander. Now the guard's official position is the guard of Jinghai Guard! You call Mr. Qianhu again, be careful that the guard's personal soldiers slapped you in the face with a big slap!"
