Chapter 111 Missing Owner
Liu Yao led his troops to control the Forbidden City, and basically did not encounter any resistance. The generals of the two battalions quickly controlled the whole Forbidden City inside and outside.
But it's easy to say, but there are really a lot of jokes. Think about this group of soldiers from mud and legs. Although they have seen the world since Xiao Tianjian's uprising, the so-called world they have seen is at most the homes of some rich people. How can they compete with such a big Forbidden City? Compared with the city!
So after entering the palace, the two battalions of soldiers began to act separately. Although some eunuchs were arrested to lead the way, after entering the palace, looking at the towering palace in the Forbidden City and the dense roads, many soldiers of the Dazhong Army would faint in the Forbidden City. After many people arrived in the harem, it was even more I was stunned by the luxury here.
Many eunuchs and maids were stuffed with bulging their bodies. As a result, when they were caught, as soon as they searched themselves, they found a lot of valuable things. Seeing that these military generals were dazzled and full of stars, there were really some people who couldn't stop such ** and secretly stuffed some things into their arms.
The whole control of the Forbidden City has been busy until the evening. What Liu Yaoben is most concerned about is not how many things he has seized, but where Chongzhen has gone now!
The generals who entered the palace searched almost all corners of the Forbidden City. In the middle of the night, they did not find the whereabouts of Chongzhen. Even the crown prince and the other two sons of Chongzhen were found. Only in the Kunning Palace, they found Empress Zhou, who had committed suicide, and Yuan Guifei, who had accidentally committed suicide, in the Cining Palace. Empress Zhang, Emperor Tianqi, was caught, and Tian Guifei and other concubines who were killed by Chongzhen were found in other palaces. In the Shouning Palace and Zhaoren Hall of the Forbidden City, Princess Changping, who was only 13 years old, and Princess Zhaoren, who was only three years old, was still taken care of by the maid of the palace.
Chongzhen and his three sons couldn't find it. Liu Yao panicked. Of course, he knew the importance of these four people. Now the Forbidden City has been controlled by them, but there is no trace of these four people. What's wrong with this?
So while Liu Yaoben sent someone to report Xiao Tianjian's news of this, he immediately interrogated the eunuch maids who had been controlled overnight in the palace, trying to find out the wheres of Chongzhen and the three princes from their mouths.
Xiao Tianjian also entered the city overnight, entered the Forbidden City in the middle of the night, and immediately ordered the gendarmen and Yu Linwei to take over the whole Forbidden City.
Looking at the Forbidden City illuminated by the lights, Xiao Tianjian couldn't help sighing. At this time, there is a big difference between the Forbidden City and the Forbidden City visited by future generations. At least the name of the hall is different from that of later generations, and the scale is slightly smaller than that of later generations, but looking at this era, the Forbidden City is probably still like this. The most majestic and magnificent palace in the world, he finally stepped into this palace as the emperor of the Great China Dynasty today. I'm afraid it's impossible to calm him down.
From the time he drove more than 100,000 slaves back to Liaodong north of Jinzhou like ducks in Shanhaiguan, when he stepped into the former capital of the Ming Dynasty, he was destined to unveil a new seal of China. From then on, the Chinese people no longer have to be left with a pig tail behind those heads. The ordinary money rat-tailed slave enslavement no longer has to be ignorant by them using the sauce jar maggot culture for nearly 300 years. In the land of China, they are so arrogant that they miss the best time to discover the world's oceans.
Looking at the Forbidden City, which has been controlled by the Dazhong Army, and looking at these huge and glorious capitals that have consumed countless financial resources of the Chinese people and been established by the Zhu Dynasty, Xiao Tianjian has a lot of feelings at this moment.
He does not deny that the Chinese have used their ingenuity to leave such a towering, magnificent and ingenious imperial city for future generations, which makes it still attract the attention of the world hundreds of years later.
However, it is undeniable that such a large-scale construction has not played any valuable role in the development of Chinese history except for leaving a large number of splendid buildings.
If it weren't for Zhu Yuanzhang's awareness of small farmers and ordered to seal the sea, with the navigation technology and shipbuilding technology in Chinese history, in this era, how can those small European countries that have not yet fully risen can use their limited resources, limited navigation technology, and some that have never been able to enter? The small sea boat of the Chinese people has completed the greatest geographical discovery in world history and extended their tentacles to all over the world, so that the Chinese closed the door to the sea after Zheng He went to the West and no longer care about what was going on in the world.
So that more than 200 years later, the European powers drove a large number of warships to the coast of China, bombarded China's doors with naval guns, and continuously transported a large number of opium that poisoned the Chinese people into China. While poisoning the Chinese people, they transported a large number of gold and silver, which were the toughest in the world, back to their countries. At that time Later, the Chinese talent was stunned to find that he had been left far behind by the great powers in the world. From then on, he could no longer stand proudly on the top of the world with a civilization that had been brilliant for thousands of years, and he would be constantly divided by the powers as a piece of fat meat, and suffered the humiliation of losing power and humiliating the country.
Although in this era, it cannot be said that all Chinese people have ignored the sea, at least in the southern Fujian area, and the Zheng Group now regards the South China Sea and even the routes to Japan and North Korea as the back garden of their families, but their short-sighted vision is only limited to the map of the world. From the point of view, the vast South China Sea, and even the surrounding places, are being occupied by the Dutch, Spaniards, Portuguese and even the rising British, but they do not know how to use their power to seize the colonies for the Chinese.
Now that Xiao Tianjian has stepped into this capital, he does not allow this kind of thing to slide down according to the original trajectory. Daming has completely decayed, and no one can change their fate, so he can only be swept into the historical garbage heap, so that they can no longer control what used to be this. The greatest country in the world, fortunately, God threw him back to this era and made him lucky to be the Terminator of the Ming Dynasty, rather than Li Zicheng, who was full of small peasant consciousness, barbaric and arrogant, to complete this work.
Although Jiannu has not been completely knocked down at present, although China and the southern provinces have not been unified, and Li Zicheng, the pseudo-Dashun emperor, is tossing around in Shaanxi, and there is a rising quasi-Geer department in the west. He needs him to clean them up step by step and gradually complete the unification of Greater China, but It is Xiao Tianjian who believes that it is time to make early preparations for the return of the Chinese people to the sea in the next step.
At this time, it can be said that the Chinese are one step behind those Europeans. With China's current national strength, even after so many years of war, the national strength is already very weak, but compared with those small European countries, even if they are all Tied together, it may not be that they can be better than China, and now the era of great navigation is not long. The world has not been completely divided up by European powers, and there are still many barren lands for Chinese people to compete for.
Although some Western technologies have led the Chinese in this era, this lead is only a small gap, especially after the rise of his Xing Tianjun. In terms of firearms, China has not lagged behind Europe. Coupled with the existence of his super cheater, he knows better than anyone else. In what direction will the technology develop? He can take many shortcuts. With a little effort, China can greatly surpass Europe again. Even if the navigation and shipbuilding technology are slightly backward now, this is not a problem for him. In short, as long as Xiao Tianjian is alive, the next step should be Look at the world, Greater China will continue to occupy the top of the world.
Xiao Tianjian walked on the slate road leading to the Huangji Hall under the protection of many Yulinwei, while thinking about these things excitedly. Suddenly, Liu Yaoben, with his generals, greeted him from afar from the direction of the Huangji Hall, and quickly queued up in front of Xiao Tianjian, and then under the leadership of Liu Yaoben. Together, they straightened their legs and made a military salute to Xiao Tianjian.
"Your Majesty! Liu Yao, the second guard division, has met the emperor! By the order of the emperor, the last general has completely controlled the Forbidden City! Now the property in the Forbidden City is being sealed and counted!
In addition, we have controlled Empress Zhang, the Apocalypse Emperor, in the imperial city, and found the concubines such as Empress Zhou and Concubine Tian, who had been killed by Chongzhen, and controlled the concubine Yuan, who had not died, as well as the two daughters of Chongzhen, Princess Changping and Princess Zhaoren! In addition, there are a total of 1,700 maids of honor who have not yet escaped, and more than 650 eunuchs have also been controlled by us!
But... But the ministers couldn't find Zhu Youjian, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and his three sons, Zhu Cilang, King Ding and King Yong. Please forgive me!
However, Weichen is still torturing the captured eunuchs and maids in the palace, and is tracking down the whereabouts of Chongzhen and his three princes. Please make clear what to do next!" As soon as Liu Yaoben saw that Xiao Tianjian had entered the Forbidden City surrounded by generals, he immediately reported to Xiao Tianjian about their work during this time. When talking about Chongzhen and his three sons, he couldn't help but make Liu Yaoben a little discouraged.
Xiao Tianjian heard that he still couldn't catch Chongzhen, so he was also a little disappointed. He really wanted to see Emperor Chongzhen, who had been against him for so many years, not to laugh at him as a loser, but to see with his own eyes what this emperor was once disputed by many historians in later generations. I didn't expect him to move so fast, but he still didn't catch Chongzhen at the first time, and even his three extremely important princes were not in the palace, which made him a little uneasy.
"Oh? So what's the result of the torture?" Xiao Tianjian immediately asked Liu Yaoben.
You should know that as long as Chongzhen does not catch it, the Ming Dynasty cannot be said to have been ended by him. At present, there are still many soldiers and civilians in China. In fact, they do not agree with him as the emperor who ascended the throne by rebellion. As long as Chongzhen runs away and shakes his arms, there is still a considerable call in the people. Li, even if any of his three sons, as long as they escape to an area that is not under the control of the Dazhong army, they will be used to use their identity to immediately set up another court and continue to deal with his Dazhong Dynasty. In that case, the already broken national strength will continue to be weakened, which is very unfavorable to the next He will unify the world.
"The eunuchs and maids of honor in the harem have confessed. They said that in the afternoon, they also saw Chongzhen running around in the palace. Chongzhen knew that his world was over, so in anger, he killed some eunuchs and maids with swords, and forced many of his women to kill themselves. Some concubines refused to kill themselves. As a result, they were Chong Zhen killed it with his own hands, and his favorite concubine Tian was killed by him!
But when he heard that we had attacked the Forbidden City, Chongzhen took his trusted eunuch Wang Chengen to the imperial garden, and no one saw Chongzhen again!
As for his three princes, according to the confessions of the eunuchs and maids who served them, they suddenly disappeared before the Holy Army arrived outside the capital, and their whereabouts have not been found yet! Weichen will continue to investigate!" Liu Yaoben replied quickly.
Xiao Tianjian nodded and suddenly asked, "What about Xuanwu Gate? ( Xuanwumen is the later Shenwumen!) When you controlled Xuanwu Gate, what was the situation there?
Liu Yaoben immediately replied, "Sheng Sheng, after Weichen entered the palace, he soon sent someone to control the Xuanwu Gate. According to the generals who went to control the Xuanwu Gate, when they rushed to the Xuanwu Gate, the eunuch guards there had already run away and took a lot of property in the palace. The Xuanwu Gate has been opened, and Chongzhen is very Maybe he escaped from Xuanwu Gate with Wang Cheng'en. Now Weichen is sending troops to search outside the Forbidden City!"
Xiao Tianjian nodded. At this time, Beijing can be said to be in chaos. The eunuchs and maids of honor in the Forbidden City also ran away. Chongzhen had time to run out of the palace, so he immediately issued an order: "Immediately report to all the people in the city, and confess the whereabouts of Zhu Youjian and his three princes, and reward them with thousands of silver. Two, hide Zhu Youjian and his three princes, and the whole family will be killed! In addition, immediately send someone to the coal mountain behind the Forbidden City to search the mountain! If it is not as I expected, Zhu Youjian is likely to take Wang Cheng'en to escape there!
In addition, the whole army and generals who issued an edict to enter the city, after removing the remnants of the Ming army who resisted in the city, immediately stopped on the spot according to the original area. No one should disturb the people or take advantage of the chaos to rob jie's property, rape women, and kill the violators!
Your second guard left 500 people to cooperate with Yu Linwei to guard the Forbidden City, and don't let the things in the Forbidden City flow out! Lu Xiangsheng immediately led all the gendarmes to all parts of the city to supervise the army and the people! Once someone is found to have violated military discipline, they can be executed on the spot!"
After hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng immediately bowed down to accept the order. When he entered Beijing, what he was most afraid of was that after some soldiers of the Dazhong army entered the city, they could not control themselves and took advantage of this good opportunity to plunder and disturb the people in the city.
Although he is very clear that the discipline of the Dazhong army is strict, it is not as good as the ordinary city. It gathers the most powerful and rich people in the north. He knows better than anyone else. In the face of such a **, once these large and medium-sized soldiers who have been transformed from farmers to soldiers will enter the city, it is difficult to guarantee that no one can stand it. If you live in such a **, take the opportunity to salvage a sum. In that case, it may cause chaos in Beijing, which will be very unfavorable for controlling the capital in the future.
It was not his turn to remind Xiao Tianjian yet. Xiao Tianjian took the initiative to send him to be responsible for the picket of military discipline in the city, which showed that Xiao Tianjian knew what to do next and did not forget because he captured the capital of Daming.
So he immediately received the order to send the gendarmes in the army and the two battalions of gendarmes following Xiao Tianjian to all parts of the capital to supervise the soldiers and horses of the large and medium-sized army in the city, so as to avoid mistakes.
Nowadays, the most important thing is to stabilize the situation in the capital first, so as not to cause chaos. Even the four gates of the Forbidden City, Lu Xiangsheng also sent gendarmes to guard the gate, and searched the generals who withdrew from the Forbidden City next. The provincial gang couldn't control themselves and took one of the Forbidden City. Some valuables and many important documents are taken out and scattered among the people.
So Liu Yaoben also quickly took the order and immediately evacuated most of his soldiers from the Forbidden City, leaving only 500 people, which was handed over to Tietou to cooperate with Yu Linwei under his command to take charge of the defense of the Forbidden City.
Then Li Xin and others asked how to deal with these imperial concubines and eunuch palace maids captured in the Forbidden City. After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Tianjian sighed slightly and said, "All the concubines of Chongzhen in the Forbidden City should first place them properly and not harm them. After all, they are also pitiful. People! It's not their fault! In the future, if they come from someone, let their family take it back!
As for the eunuchs, according to Nanjing's old method, for the low-level little eunuchs, they will be dismissed in the future, but for the time being, they will be left to help seal up the property in the palace and sort out all kinds of documents and materials in the palace. These things are not my, but the people of the world. One day, I will return them to the people of the world! As for those great eunuchs in important positions, they should be detained for the time being and dealt with after hearing!
As for the maid of honor! I already have three women, which is enough for me! Don't stay here to charm me! As long as there is a home, you can distribute road money, deport it home, and marry the person who should marry! I will never imitate the emperors and leave so many women around me! It's hard to think that it's so surrounded by warbler and swallows! I still have a lot of things to do, and I don't have time to keep them by my side! It's all dismissed!"
After listening to Xiao Tianjian's instructions, all the generals admire Xiao Tianjian very much. He led the troops in this world. What does Xiao Tianjian want now? The maids in these palaces and the concubines of Chongzhen were all selected. I'm afraid no one would be willing to let them go like this! However, Xiao Tianjian was not moved by the beauty at all. He issued a decree to dismiss him. Such integrity really moved everyone, so the generals took the order one after another and began to work according to Xiao Tianjian's instructions.
(Today, when I saw the reward, I was shocked by the cold wind! Thanks to the Star Brothers for the series of rewards! It looks quite spectacular! So why do I have to hand in a 5,000-word chapter today? Ha ha!)
