  Chapter 1460 Worship Zhang Jing again

  Zhu Ping'an bid farewell to Zhang Nietai, visited Chu Xiong and other colleagues in the government office one by one, declined Chu Xiong's invitation to dinner, and left the government office for the main destination of the trip - the Yamen of the Ministry of Military Affairs of Yingtian.

   "I am Zhu Ping'an, the procuratorial envoy of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and I came to ask to see Zhang Shangshu, and by the way, I checked the detailed files of the recent Japanese plague." Zhu Pingan showed his official waist badge to the guard of the Yamen of the Ministry of War, explaining his intention.

   "I have met Mr. Zhu, please, Mr. Zhu." The guard verified Zhu Ping'an's badge and respectfully let him go.

   Entering the yamen of the Ministry of War, an officer led Zhu Pingan inside, introduced an empty room to wait for a while, poured tea and water for Zhu Pingan, and said respectfully, "Master Zhu, please wait a moment, I will go to report."

   "Thank you." Zhu Pingan cupped his hands.

  The guard went out to report and returned soon. When he came back, he said to Zhu Ping'an with an apologetic face, "Master Zhu, what a coincidence. Master Zhang is currently receiving others, so please wait a little longer."

   "No problem. Excuse me, where are the detailed files of the Japanese invasion recently stored? Can I check the files of the Japanese invasion while waiting?" Zhu Ping'an asked.

"Recently, the Japanese files are stored in the file room next door. My lord, please follow me." The guard replied, leading Zhu Pingan to the file room, pointing to one of the bookshelves, and said to Zhu Pingan, "My lord, this is the recent Japanese file The detailed information, adults can read it casually, and put it back in the original place after reading it."

   "Thank you." Zhu Pingan cupped his hands in thanks.

  The bookshelves in the archive room are like a forest. If it weren't for the guidance of the guards, Zhu Ping'an would never have been able to find the file of the Japanese infection.

  Standing in front of the bookshelf, Zhu Pingan looked carefully. This bookshelf is full of files of Japanese invaders, which are registered and returned according to the date. Then I only need to search from the files of Japanese invaders in the last five days.

   There are also many files in these five days, as many as twenty volumes. Each volume records a case of Japanese pirates, and twenty volumes means that more than twenty Japanese pirates have occurred in the past five days. This shows how rampant Japanese pirates have been during this period of time.

"On November 20th, the thirty-first year of Jiajing, Japanese pirates came from the east, landed in Wenzhou Prefecture, and attacked Yongjia County. Tang Yi, the magistrate of the county, led his troops to attack and was ambushed by Japanese pirates. Looting wantonly in Yongjia County. Not this one.” Zhu Pingan opened a file and found that it recorded the pirates in Yongjia County, so he put it back to its original place and picked up another file.

"On November 21, the thirty-first year of Jiajing, there were more than two thousand Japanese besieging Ningbo Prefecture, and they divided their troops to rob Fenghua and Xiangshan counties. Peng Manying, the county magistrate of Xiangshan County, feared the Japanese as a tiger, abandoned the city and fled, and the residents of Xiangshan County were not harmed. This one."

  Zhu Ping'an opened the file and browsed it in a hurry, shook his head slightly, and put it back in its original place.

"On November 21, the 31st year of Jiajing, more than 1,800 Japanese pirates invaded Putian County and Zhendongwei in Fujian Province. Thousands of Ming soldiers Dai Hong, Gao Huai, Zhang Luan (Luan) and others died fighting. In the same month On the 23rd, this group of Japanese pirates again committed crimes at Pinghaiwei and Fuqing in Xinghua, Fujian. Fu, fight to the death with all your strength."

  Then, Zhu Pingan went through three more files, none of which were the group of Japanese pirates who landed in Shaoxing Mansion.

   When I turned to the sixth book, I found the news records of the group of Japanese pirates who landed in Shaoxing Prefecture.

  Zhu Ping'an looked through the files of these Japanese pirates' crimes one by one, and watched them carefully.

   "Oh, no wonder this group of Japanese pirates were able to pass through the Huizhou pass." When Zhu Pingan flipped through a file, he couldn't help but sighed.

  At the beginning, I still wondered how the one hundred and fifty Japanese pirates could pass through the natural moat with cold weapons.

   Now, this dossier has cleared up my confusion.

"On November 23rd in the 31st year of Jiajing, Shaoxing escaped Japanese from Changhua and Yuqian County to Chun'an County. Chun'an County Magistrate Hai Rui strictly guarded Chun'an County. Hai Rui, the magistrate of Chun'an County, led the attack and was defeated by the Japanese pirates from the front. More than a hundred people were killed or injured. The soldiers have not yet reached the strength, and the Japanese pirates have broken into the Huanggouyuankou of Shexian County from the Panshan Mountain in Chun'an. There are more than 600 officers, soldiers and civilians in the Huizhou government guarding the Huizhou pass. The guards of the Huizhou government were terrified when they saw the pass, and without firing an arrow, the coefficient collapsed, and the Japanese pirates broke through the pass and entered Huizhou, where they robbed Jixi."

   After reading this dossier, Zhu Pingan couldn’t help sighing, no wonder the Japanese pirates entered Huizhou so easily. It turned out that the officers, soldiers and people guarding the pass in Huizhou Prefecture had the right time, place and people, and they ran away in fright when they saw the Japanese pirates!

  Fleeing without fighting, collapsing without fighting, the majestic gates of the sky have become decorations, undefended decorations!

   Really incompetent army, killing the people.

  Zhu Ping'an is speechless!

   After sighing, Zhu Pingan continued to flip through these files, carefully reading the details that were not recorded in the Tang newspaper.

   "Master Zhu, Zhang Shangshu welcomes you." Zhu Pingan had just finished reading these files when the guard came in to report.

   "Thank you." Zhu Pingan cupped his hands to express his thanks, quickly returned the file to its original position, and followed the guards to meet Zhang Jing.

   "The next official, Zhu Ping'an, pays homage to Mr. Zhang." After entering the door, Zhu Ping'an bowed his hands to greet Zhang Jing immediately.

   "Master Zhu, you are here, please sit down." Zhang Jing nodded slightly, and pointed to the chair next to him.

  Zhang Jing looked very tired, as if he hadn't had a good sleep for several days, with heavy dark circles, lack of energy, and his body looked hollowed out.

This is the second time that Zhu Ping'an has come to visit Zhang Jing at the Yamen of the Ministry of War. I still remember that the last time I visited, Zhang Jing was still cold and cold. This time, my treatment is obviously much better than the last time. Yes, all seated. Maybe it was the last time I met with Kao, I changed Zhang Jing's opinion by my own performance.

   "Thank you, my lord." Zhu Ping'an thanked him, sat down, and said politely, "I didn't make an appointment in advance, and I was abrupt today, disturbing my lord."

   "There is no need to say these clichés." Zhang Jing waved his hand and asked, "How is your group training now?"

   "I am going to report to Mr. Zhang." Zhu Pingan briefly reported the overall situation of the Zhejiang Army again, because he had just reported it to Mr. Zhang, and this time he was more proficient in the report.

"Well, it's okay." After listening carefully, Zhang Jing said something lightly, then looked at Zhu Ping'an, and said with a serious face, "You don't control soldiers with kindness, and you don't control money with righteousness. You need to be more strict in your military training." We must not be merciful to these bandits who have surrendered, and if necessary, kill a few typical elements to make an example.”
