Tianjin means the Emperor's Ferry, and now it is the maritime gateway to the capital, not to mention the hub of transportation, the important place for Jifu logistics and transportation, etc.

Such a major area was rushed into by thousands of pirates at night. The reports from Tianjin harbor were directly called "Japanese pirates". Judging from the corpse and confession, four hundred real Japanese were indispensable, so they could naturally be called Japanese pirates.

He killed 3,400 people and captured 3,000 people. The capital did not believe it these days. Wang Tong had only more than 3,000 soldiers and soldiers from the Jinyiwei. How could he have such a result?

Moreover, Wang informed that there were fifteen casualties in Tianjin guards and ten casualties in Jinyi Guards a year, and even more sneered by all officials. Wang Tong knew that he had falsely reported the results of the war at such a young age, but this was a bit outrageous.

It is said that this is a good opportunity to attack Wang Tong, but Tianjin Guards are preparing for the Taoist Yu Jiyong, Supervisor Xu Guang and the General of the Guard Sun Zhibin! The general of the town, Wu Jiguang, reported it to the court, not to mention the private letters. Needless to say, the private letters are more realistic:... The sound of killing was shook the sky this night, and the sound of cannons was like thunder..."... Everyone in the city was trembling and did not dare to come out..."... The corpse was buried in the desert ten miles northwest of the city, and the yamen runners went to help, but there were no corpses of the Jinyi Guards one by one."... The training ground in the northwest of the city was reviewed, and the casualties were sacrificed and injured, and the family members were invited to the scene. It was indeed a number of fifteen people.

"...Wonderful, that night, the Jinyiwei was only three thousand by the Haihe River, and nearly four thousand Japanese pirates were defeated, and all the thieves were destroyed. The Haihe shops and merchants were injured and only a dozen were only ones. Wang's actions were incredible..."

Since this kind of news spread in the capital, people who wanted to take the opportunity to find fault suddenly realized that if they were too careful, they might have made some shocking contributions to Wang Tong.

It is said that Empress Dowager Cisheng had praised Wang Tong some time ago, and if she made such contributions, she might return to the capital and be promoted to the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei, or the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei. She spent so much effort to drive him out of the capital. She spent so much effort to suppress him, so why bother to make a contribution for him?

Internal struggles are internal struggles, and major policies still need to be continued. Tianjin Wei is in a key place and the capital's maritime portal, thousands of pirates have landed in. This is related to the lives of everyone, and they must not be careless.

The Lijian, the Cabinet, the Ministry of War, the Censorate and other yamen were drafting various plans while writing various documents to all localities and questioning relevant military generals and civil servants to strengthen their defense.

Mr. Zhang was angry in the cabinet. The Grand Secretary of the Cabinet and the Minister of War Zhang Siwei was said to kneel down to apologize, and said that Empress Dowager Li also summoned Zhang Juzheng and asked Feng Bao many times. At this point, it was to come up with countermeasures and preventive methods to prevent this matter from happening again. "My dear friends, I must have known the incident of Tianjin Wei being attacked by a large number of Japanese pirates! In Wenyuan Pavilion, Emperor Wanli asked. The ministers here exchanged glances, and Zhang Juzheng bowed sideways and replied, "I have already known what you said to your Majesty." "But this incident happened in the capital gate. Ji gave more than 100,000 troops there. Is there no one to guard this gate?"

Emperor Wanli asked a rude question, and everyone knew that the emperor took the opportunity to do something about defense and guarding. Zhang Siwei, as the Minister of War, was the chief officer of the Ministry of War. At this time, he also walked out of the line and spoke solemnly to report:

"Your Majesty, Ji Sui General Qi Jiguang has re-entered the title of General Sun Zhibin, and has requested to take the crimes from above. Now, there are cavalry inspections thirty miles north and south of Haikou, Tianjin. If there are police at sea, soldiers will gather. The Japanese pirates will never take advantage of the loopholes. I have also instructed Shandong Denglai to garrison the Jinzhou Guards in Liao Town to strengthen inspections and not allow the thieves to pass through the border." Hearing this, Emperor Wanli's face was slightly relieved and he spoke:

"Although the three guards in Tianjin are Qi Jiguang's defense offices, Qi Jiguang is always at Jiyou to focus on the north. Tianjin Wei will inevitably be indifferent to some places. This time, I have asked the Secretary for the repentance to reject the letter, so that he can handle the matter with peace of mind. However, Qi Jiguang also said in the letter that no pirates along the coast dared to invade such a large number of Japanese pirates around Jiyou, Liaoyou and Shandong. Japanese pirates went north, either in Shandong or in Korea, and there were places where they settled. If they were strictly prevented, there would be no future troubles."

He talked here, and the ministers sitting below looked at each other again, and they were all confused. Everyone knew what the folding paper on Qi Jiguang was about. Emperor Wanli repeated here, not knowing what the content was, and the defense at the beach had basically been decided.

And the most important thing is that in addition to the defensive general Sun Zhibin, the military camp moved eastward, stationed on the south bank of Haihe River, and added 2,000 troops.

After this mobilization, there is basically no need to worry about the invasion of major pirates. The capital is caught off guard. Even if the Japanese pirates dare to land, the troops of Sun Zhibin, the soldiers of the governors of the lieutenant general, will be held back for a while, and large troops everywhere will gather here.

But Emperor Wanli didn't mention this. The emperor suddenly said this again when everything was decided, and there must be his reason for it. But why can't everyone understand it, and just pretend to understand and nod there.

"I know that there is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days. To eradicate disasters, we must completely wipe out these pirates. I have asked Qi Jiguang many times for this. He said that now there are only two large pirates, one is the place of Fujian and Guangdong, and the other is Japan. Japan is far from the Ming Dynasty. We should follow the long-term plan to deal with this Fujian and Guangdong.

Speaking of this, everyone is still confused. What Emperor Wanli said is the great truth, and the words are correct, but what is the purpose of saying it today? Emperor Wanli paused and said in a deep voice:

"I have asked the report from the Dongchang and Jinyiwei in the past few days, saying that the Bromen Gate is a nest of thieves, and the pirates from Fujian, Guangdong and South Oceans gathered there. Macau was originally a kindness from the Celestial Empire, giving the Folang Ji people a place to live. Now, why are the whole country in Guangdong not asking about it? Why does the Governor Ling Yunyi ignore it?"

Could it be that this long speech was aimed at the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi Ling Yunyi? Zhang Juzheng pondered for a while, and then bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Ling Yunyi's actions in Guangdong and Guangxi have been to pacify the tribes in the southwest in recent years. Macau is just a small place. The foreigners are still respectful and docile there, which is not the fault of Lord Ling." "I know the hard work of Ling Yunyi. He has also made great efforts to quell the Miao Lunyao Ruo, but Macau has become a place to raise thieves, so we must not ignore it." Zhang Juzheng bowed and said, "Your Majesty is wise, how to deal with Macau, please give your instructions.

When he got up, he looked at Feng Bao for 7 eyes, but Feng Bao lowered his head. Zhang Juzheng roughly judged the meaning of Emperor Wanli, and Feng Bao bowed his head, which showed that what the emperor wanted to do had no interference with his own family.

Hearing Zhang Juzheng say this, a smile appeared on the corner of Emperor Wanli's mouth, and then he restrained himself and became serious, saying in a solemn voice:

"The Guangdong region has had a covenant with the Folangji people. Our country of Heavenly Kingdom cannot betray the covenant and be ridiculed by the barbarians, but we cannot let it do anything. We ordered Guangdong to send a navy to the Bromen, investigate the place, and give those people a warning to "let them restrain themselves." We have always been a little worried that the ministers finally breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone bowed and praised and said, "The saint is nothing more than your majesty tomorrow, and I will obey the order!"

In their eyes, the Bromine Sect is really a small place. He ordered the Guangdong Navy to go and clear the Ming Dynasty to show the majesty. This is not a bad thing. It has no conflict with everyone, so the cabinet ticket was planned to leave. Emperor Wanli only started to smile at this time, as if he said casually:

"Chen Zi, the general of Luoshan Ginseng in Guangdong, is proficient in water warfare. Tan Zili mentioned to me many times that since he is proficient in water warfare, he must make the best use of it. Please be transferred to the admiral of the Guangdong Navy. The Tianjin Wei incident shows that the Ming Dynasty has thousands of miles of boundaries, and how can the infantry guards alone? There is still a navy that can be used and fought. Let Chen Zi clean up first!" "Your Majesty's holy wisdom!"

The court officials bowed down together again, and everyone was surprised, because Emperor Wanli was really normal and ordinary. In the past, when it involved the affairs of Tianjin Wei and Wang Tong, they had to argue fiercely during the court meeting, but today they did not mention Wang Tong at all. According to the ministers' ideas, Wang Tong had made great contributions at all. This time, the emperor would have to give him a reward for a high-ranking official.

The arrangements for political affairs in the court today made the court unfathomable, but reasonable practices made some qualified ministers think of the style of Emperor Jiajing's handling of political affairs. "Gei, if it weren't for Wang Tong's misconduct in Tianjin Wei, how could he attract those pirates and Japanese pirates? Now he seems to have become a meritorious minister. It's really no rules."

In the cabinet, Zhang Siwei shook his head and complained. Zhang Juzheng raised his head from the newspaper, but Shen Shixing on the side spoke first: "No matter what Wang Tong is, nearly 100,000 creatures by the Haihe River are protected. This is indeed a great contribution. Shen thinks that the court has no expression this time, which is too unkind."

Zhang Siwei's expression stuttered slightly, and he glanced at Zhang Juzheng on the edge of seven eyes. He looked at him with a calm expression, and his expression returned to normal again. He shook his head and said:

"Training the navy, the money I have spent over the years was thrown to the nine sides. There is no silver for the navy. It is a bottomless pit. The rich man. How to raise this money, the Ministry of Revenue must be anxious with the subordinates!"

Before Zhang Siwei could speak, the door of the cabinet outside "Zhang Hong, the Chief Secretary of the Sili, arrived" opened. Zhang Hong walked in with confusion on his face. Before he could even greet him, he said: "My sirs, Long live the will of the emperor is different from what he said at the court meeting..."
