The official atmosphere in the late Ming Dynasty was definitely a mess.

No official is corrupt. To be an official, you must be corrupt, otherwise you are going against the entire officialdom!

In the Jiajing year, something different happened - Hai Rui, and in the Chongzhen year, something unexpected happened again.

When will it be the eunuch's turn, and the Jin Yiwei will be upright and have a breeze on his sleeves?

What a hell!

The officials scolded Wang Kun for breaking the rules, but he had no choice but to reach a consensus and give him all his things and money, so that he could get out of the capital as soon as possible and keep out of sight.

The money has been given, the gunpowder has been taken, and the food has been shipped. If there is anything wrong with the task of supervising the army and suppressing the rebellion, hum!

Wang Kun, Xiao Lizi, Diao Dianbao, etc. all have top-notch IQs. No one needs to warn them. Everyone knows that they broke the rules and offended all the officials.

Now we can only cling to the emperor’s lap!

Wang Kun knew very well what kind of temper the emperor was like.

I remember that when the emperor trusted Yuan Chonghuan, he simply obeyed his words and gave him whatever he asked. He even pinched his nose and admitted that Yuan Chonghuan had faked the imperial edict to kill Mao Wenlong.

If Yuan Chonghuan really had the ability to handle the Liao affair, no matter what he committed, it would not be a big deal!

However, that guy was not good at this or that. He was only good at talking, but he was useless. In the end, he was cut into pieces by a thousand cuts.

Wang Kun, who was favored, had no power to make him stupid. He was afraid of being cut to pieces, so he had to do the job assigned by the emperor well.

He has seen too many armies with his own eyes and knows too many low-level military attaches and senior generals. The one he admires the most is Huang Yi, and the one he is most convinced of is the Xinghe Army, which has strict military discipline.

He was extremely confident and felt that as long as Huang Yi led the Xinghe Army to participate in the counter-rebellion, the rebels would surely collapse.

Therefore, he had to let Huang Yi find no reason to refuse to send troops, so he personally escorted the silver and grain to arrive in a dusty way.

This time it was different. Wang Kun came to Xuan Mansion with his head held high.

The selflessness in his heart is indeed true. Wang Kun did not waste a single tael of silver or a stone of food, and brought sufficient food and pay to the Xinghe Army for their departure.

There is probably no one who can do this now, so Wang Kun has reason to be proud!

At the end of May, Huang Yi still led the Xinghe Army to the Xuan Mansion for inspection, and they were paid according to the actual number of troops dispatched.

Wang Kun refused to listen and led the civil and military officers of Xuanda University to inspect the Xinghe army, deliberately making the situation louder.

This time Geng Ruqi left without any excuse, not just him, the Governor of Xuanda.

The governor of Xuanfu, the governor of Shanxi, the governor of Datong, the chief envoy of Shanxi, the army and the army, etc. In short, basically all the distinguished civil servants and military generals from Shanxi and Xuanda came.

Take action when it's time to take action. In the late Ming Dynasty, only with a strong army in hand can we have the capital to settle down and live.

Therefore, Huang Yi wants to show it to more civilians and military generals, letting everyone know that Huang Yi's capital is huge.

Don’t military generals have to report the number of their servants when they go on an expedition?

Huang Yi didn't report too much, went straight to the essentials, and personally led 1,800 armored cavalry around the school military field.

Except for Geng Ruqi, Wang Kun, Geng Zhanghua and others who knew the truth, other officials were shocked.

"No wonder Xinghe's army can fight, he has 1,800 servants!"

"Yes! It's unbelievable. The war horses of those servants are all fat and strong, and the war horses even have cowhide horses!"

"Those servants' armor looks expensive to make! Mr. Liu, you are an expert. Do you think it will cost a lot?"

"We have prepared the armor, war horses, and weapons of 1,800 cavalrymen, and I am afraid they will cost no less than 150,000 taels of silver!"

"Don't just look at the servants, look at those Hongyi cannons, one, two, three..., good guys, there are thirty-six of them, which should be able to shoot more than ten kilograms of shells."

"I heard that in March, the Denglai rebels defeated the Shenji Battalion and captured twelve Hongyi cannons."

"I have also heard that those red barbarian cannons were made by Dutch red hair from Haojing'ao, and they are very valuable!"

"Alas! Those Hongyi cannons were purchased to defend the capital, so they shouldn't be sent to Denglai!"

“I think it’s not the Hongyi Cannon Faction, but Denglai doesn’t have an army as powerful as the Xinghe Army!”

"I declare that Da has such a strong army, all thanks to the cultivation of the Governor!"

"Yes, yes, the Governor is far-sighted and far-sighted, and the subordinate officials can't even catch up!"

This is what officialdom is like. When a group of officials are talking and talking, they turn into wearing high hats and flattering...

However, despite being a flatterer, Geng Ruqi listened to the praises of civil servants and generals, and looked at the mighty Xinghe Army in his eyes, and he couldn't help but feel comforted!

He looked at Wang Kun and remembered the end of last summer, and felt even happier!

At that time, the eunuch Wang, the eunuch of the Xuan Dynasty, was so majestic and powerful!

On the contrary, he was quite impressed by him as the Governor of Xuanda, and for a while he didn’t know how to get along with him!

Who would have ever thought of meeting a son-in-law who didn't care about the rules of the officialdom and the laws of the court. In just half a year, he had tamed the eunuch who was supervising the army like a cat.

Geng Ruqi still doesn’t know what methods Huang Yi used!

Seeing Wang Kun and dozens of Jinyi guards standing upright, he said, "Eunuch Wang, what do you think of the Xinghe Army?"

Wang Kun said in a concise tone: "Invincible in the world!"

Seeing the emperor's most favored eunuch commenting on the Xinghe Army in this way, all the civil servants and generals opened their mouths in surprise.

Geng Ruqi could only humbly say: "My father-in-law, I'm sorry!"

Wang Kun said proudly: "The Sa family climbed over mountains and ridges on ice and snow with the Xinghe Army. This is the best way to appreciate the combat effectiveness of the Xinghe Army!

Just wait, gentlemen. In another half year, the Xinghe Army will surely put down the Denglai rebellion, and then the Holy Emperor will praise the Xinghe Army as invincible in the world!"

Shen Jie, the governor of Xuanfu, asked with a smile: "Do you think the Xinghe army is stronger than the Guan Ning army?"

"Of course it is stronger than the Guan Ning Army! The Sa family even believes that only the Xinghe Army can defeat the Jian Nu and conquer Liaodong!"

Attitude determines everything, face is earned by oneself.

This time Huang Yi not only did not embarrass Wang Kun, but also took the initiative to report the dispatch of 1,800 armored servants, 2,200 battalions, and 5,000 auxiliary troops, for a total of 9,000 troops.

The original agreement was to dispatch 8,000 troops, but now it is better than expected, with a full thousand more.

Of course, these thousand men and horses had their origins. General Wanquan Youwei on the Xuanfu West Road sent 500 troops, and General Dushi Maying on the North Road sent 500 troops.

The Xinghe Army made no mistakes in the autumn, and the Xinghe Army had strict discipline. The Xinghe Army marched thirty miles every day...

It's not that he couldn't move faster, but Huang Yi deliberately slowed down his marching speed. He had a good reason. There were dozens of heavy Hongyi cannons accompanying the army. In order to be sure, he couldn't rush the time.

Wang Kun didn't know what Huang Yi was thinking, but he was relieved.

Because the Xinghe Army not only had a large number of troops, but also marched step by step, forming strongholds every day.

Being in this kind of army, I felt very at ease, feeling that I was already in an invincible position, and it was only a matter of time before we could win a big victory.

Twenty days later, Jiu Qianxing and his army arrived on the outskirts of Beijing.
Chapter completed!
