After completely annihilating the garrison of the Eight Banners, Luo Yue immediately ordered to march to Beicheng with his captives. Just now, in order to lure the Eight Banners garrison out, the attack on Beicheng was actually a show, in fact, there was no real siege, but this time it was different, a few mortars were erected, a few cannons were fired first, and then the prisoners were pushed to the front of the formation, asking the defenders in the city to open the city and surrender.

Sure enough, a few cannons came down, and immediately knocked out more than half of the morale of the defenders, and after the prisoners were escorted to the front of the battle, the resistance of the defenders in the city suddenly collapsed, and Wu Yannian, the co-leader, ordered Kaicheng to surrender. The People's Army entered the northern city of Qingzhou and immediately took over the important defense of the city, and all other Manchu magnates and family members in the city restricted their movements. Subsequently, Luo Yue sent another battalion to the main city of Qingzhou.

At this time, although the garrison of the Eight Banners left, the order in the city of Qingzhou had not yet been restored, first, there were still many ruffians and hooligans taking advantage of the fire to rob; second, the battle between the People's Army and the garrison of the Eight Banners took place outside the city, and it could be seen on the city wall, so the local officials and residents of the Qing court in the city were all panicked, and they did not even know who to hope for to win, and if the garrison of the Eight Banners won, what should they do if they returned to Qingzhou City to plunder; and the army of overseas Chinese was also unreliable, they were forcibly grabbing land outside the city, and they won the Eight Banners garrison and then entered Qingzhou City, and did not turn Qingzhou City over。

However, when the People's Army soldiers approached the city, there was no stop in Qingzhou City, first, the city was still in chaos, and no one stopped the People's Army from entering the city; second, it was impossible to prevent it if they wanted to, and the Eight Banners garrison that had been dismantled in Qingzhou City for several days was killed by overseas Chinese cleanly, and Qingzhou City still had to prevent overseas Chinese, so the People's Army was not hindered by anything, and it entered Qingzhou City very smoothly. In this way, the two cities in the north and south of Qingzhou were controlled by the People's Army, and the rebellion in Qingzhou was all quelled.

The good news was transmitted back to the Qingdao Executive Yuan at dusk. Although the East China Government also knew that it would not be difficult to quell the rebellion, it took only one day, and the overall situation was determined in the first battle, and it was still not easy to achieve this step, so the Executive Yuan was very satisfied with this advance of the People's Army.

But the rebellion of the Qingzhou banner people was quelled, and the next step was to deal with the aftermath, in fact, such a thing would happen sooner or later, and the Bi Jing crossers wanted to replace the rule of the Qing court in Shandong, and to implement land reform in Shandong and re-establish a new social order, so the contradictions with the local forces and local lords in Shandong, including the banner people, would be irreconcilable, so the contradictions would intensify and explode sooner or later.

And how to deal with the outcome of this incident is very important to the East China government, mainly reflected in the following aspects: how to deal with the captured flag people, and how to deal with the Qingzhou garrison Manchurian flag city, after all, in this era, the flag people are still a relatively sensitive issue, and the traverser has been in this era for almost two years, and it is the first time to encounter this problem. The other is how to negotiate with the Qing court. This was not only related to the relationship between the East China government and the Qing court, but also to the future rule in Shandong.

So Xia Bohai convened a meeting of the Executive Yuan overnight, and also invited Qin Zheng to participate in the negotiation to deal with the issue of Qingzhou, and some people joked with Qin Zheng: It's all your son-in-law who is not good, and the rebellion in Qingzhou was put down so quickly, so I can fight for one more day, and I will send a report during the day tomorrow, so there is no need to hold a meeting overnight.

In fact, in the East China government, it is common to work and hold meetings at night. Because the traversers are not accustomed to going to bed early, and the vast majority of traversers have not got a family, the nightlife of this era is too simple, playing games online is almost the most entertainment, and then it is to watch movies, karaoke and the like, and now the East China government is still in the early days of creation, and there is a lot of work, so it has become a common thing for the traversers of government agencies to work at night, and most of the administrative staff will work for another 2-3 hours after dinner before sleeping, and sometimes the executive Yuan meeting will be held at night.

After more than three hours of discussion, the Executive Yuan reached a resolution on the handling of the Qingzhou incident, first of all, to characterize this incident as a local conservative and backward force, unwilling to accept their own power, property, land, The political status was deprived by the East China government, so the rebellion and counterattack against the East China government in an attempt to overthrow the rule of the East China government and regain its power to oppress the people should be resolutely attacked, and the characterization of the banner people is to treat them as ordinary natives, so they are treated the same as the previous treatment of the natives.

The leaders who led and commanded the rebellion were to be tried and executed in public to warn other forces, and the soldiers, bannermen, and their families who had participated in the rebellion all moved out of Mancheng and were escorted to Wuding Mansion to serve their sentences in the newly built Dongying Farm, which was actually to participate in the reclamation of the new farm. Dongying Farm is located at the mouth of the Yellow River, is the Yellow River Delta impact plain terrain, fertile land, in the old time and space, China built a huge scale of farms here, under the jurisdiction of the Jinan Military Region, so the construction of Dongying Farm, also included in the content of the five-year plan, there is just such a group of free labor, so can it be used?

The remaining population in the north of Qingzhou, whether it is the powerful commoners or the cloth, is politically equal, and all in accordance with the principle of land reform, the collection of what should be collected, the share of the share, and all into the administrative system of the East China government, in addition, because a large number of banner people have participated in the rebellion, so a large number of vacant houses in the city will be vacant, and the population will gradually move to the north city in the future, realize the mixed residence of the Manchus and Hans, break the isolation between the Manchus and Hans, and completely eliminate the independence of the Manchus.

Some people also suggested that the northern city should be demolished altogether, and even the city wall of Qingzhou should be demolished, because in modern warfare, the city wall was basically useless, and second, it actually broke the isolation between the Manchus and Hans, and Qingzhou City in the old time and space actually included the northern city. However, now that the East China government is in the process of ruling Shandong, and the administrative and public security systems are not perfect, it is not appropriate to immediately tear down the walls of various places under such circumstances, but it can order that the city gates be open all day, and residents and others can enter and exit freely, and no obstructions can be set up without an administrative order.

Then there is the formal establishment of the Qingzhou local government. Originally, the East China government adopted the strategy of encircling the cities in the countryside in the other prefectures of Shandong except Qingdao and Jinan, that is, first completing the land reform work in the rural areas outside the cities, taking the opportunity to establish a grassroots administrative system, and then controlling the county seats, and finally controlling large cities such as Fuzhou, so as to establish substantial rule in Shandong, and to temporarily retain the local officials of the Qing court, so as to avoid overstimulating the Qing court in the early stage; second, to allow the travelers to accumulate local management experience, so as to develop in an orderly and gradual manner.

However, now that there is a rebellion in Qingzhou, and the People's Army has already marched into the city of Qingzhou, it can no longer proceed in a step-by-step manner according to the previous planned steps, and a local government of Qingzhou must be established like Jinan. This requires the transfer of some traversers with urban management experience from Jinan and Qingdao to Qingzhou, so the deployment arrangements for personnel should also be included in the plan.

The decision to deal with the Qing court was a two-pronged approach, first of all, in the name of the governor of Shandong, the Qing court was to discuss the Qing court, and the Qingzhou rebellion was characterized as a rebellion, and the East China government sent troops to quell the rebellion, and in private, it was to negotiate with the Qing court, accusing Wen Rui of opposing the rule of the traverser in Shandong, demanding that the Qing court recognize the actions of the traverser, and define the behavior of the Qingzhou garrison of the Eight Banners Army as a rebellion, so that both sides would have steps to go down. In this way, it can also warn the local officials and forces in Shandong that the imperial court has no authority on this one-third of an acre of land, and can only endorse the East China government.

Although the traverser and the Qing court had reached an agreement, Shandong was actually equivalent to independence, but in name the traverser was still a subordinate of the Qing court, and was also appointed governor of Shandong, which gave the local officials and local gentry in Shandong a false impression that the imperial court still had a certain binding force on overseas Chinese, and could even interfere in Shandong's affairs. In this way, it is easy to have unrealistic illusions about the Qing court, thinking that sooner or later the imperial court will clean up the overseas Chinese, or make a big trouble, and the imperial court will come forward to take care of the overseas Chinese.

Although the rule of the traverser in Shandong has always been there, trying his best to dilute the influence of the Qing court, but after all, the time is still short, and the effect of going to the Qing court is not obvious, this Qingzhou rebellion, it is precisely because Wen Rui and others still have such illusions that it happened, if Wen Rui knew that the Qing court's resonance in Shandong was basically zero, I am afraid he would not act rashly. And the traverser can take advantage of this incident to dispel people's unrealistic illusions.

Of course, if the Qing court refused to recognize the rebellion of the Eight Banners Army stationed in Qingzhou, and instead wanted to take the opportunity to attack and weaken the rule of the traversers in Shandong, then the East China government would not be polite, and simply formally became independent and did not recognize the Qing court.

Although such a consequence was unfavorable to both sides, the Qing court could not afford to do so. Because for the East China government, although it has lost the legitimacy of its name, after all, it has established an armed army of its own, with a gun in hand, and there is no panic in the heart, and it is a big deal to suppress it by force, on the contrary, without the skin of the Qing court, the movement of the traverser will be more free, and it can directly abolish the local officials of the Chun court, and directly establish the administrative system of the East China government, and there is no need to play any tricks such as overhead.

As far as the position of the Qing court is concerned, tearing the face with the traverser is a hundred harms and no benefit, and from the perspective of benefits, it is basically zero, can it be said that the Qing court still has the strength to send troops to attack Shandong and eliminate the traverser? On the contrary, Shandong is close to Zhili, and Tianjin is still half in the hands of the traverser, once the two sides turn against each other, Beijing is almost under the threat of the People's Army, and Cixi is afraid that she will be ready to run away again at any time. Taking a step back, even if there is no battle between the two sides, but the Tianjin estuary is in the hands of the traverser, as long as the Cao Yun is cut off, the Qing court will not be able to stand it.

From this point of view, the Qing court did not have the capital to turn against the East China government at all, and the East China government could also take the opportunity to make its own conditions, one is to ask the Qing court for Zhan Tianyou, and the other is to let the Qing court withdraw the officials in Shandong, so that the traverser can smoothly take over Shandong.
