Chapter 119: The Great Commander Investigates the Truth

After Liu Erzhi's trouble, when he returned to the Yamen of the Ministry of War, Xiong Mingyu was still in a cold sweat, where did he dare to slack off again, and quickly ordered Zhu Dadian to enter the army quickly, and the rebellion must be completely quelled.

When he received the order, Zhu Dadian had already arrived in Qingzhou, Shandong. He was originally ordered by Xiong Mingyu to come to find out the truth.

After reading the order, Zhu Dadian said: "It seems that the emperor is angry, otherwise, the Xiong Bing Department would not be in such a hurry." However, no matter how urgent it is, some things are still good to figure out.

According to the knowledge of the canon, the initiator of the mutiny, or the governor of Denglai Erzhou Sun Yuanhua, back then, Mao Wenlong's subordinates stationed on Phi Island mutinied, if he did not ignore the persuasion of everyone, he had to accept Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, Li Jiucheng, Li Yingyuan and others, and sent Geng Zhongming to Dengzhou, there would never be today.

The reason is even more ridiculous, it is because a soldier forcibly took a chicken from the family servant of Wang Xiangchun of the Wang clan in Shandong, and the Ding was 'pierced through the arrow camp'. So the soldier killed the servant, and afterwards the son of Xiangchun refused to give up, demanding to find out the truth, Li Jiucheng spent all the money given by Sun Yuanhua to buy horses, and feared criticism, so he asked Kong Youde to mutiny.

It seems ridiculous, but in fact, Sun Yuanhua has to blame, knowing that the Liaodong soldiers and the Shandong soldiers have always been at odds, they actually embezzled the soldiers' salaries, resulting in insufficient soldiers' salaries. Due to repeated frictions between the soldiers and the Shandong people, the people of the county closed their doors. Soldiers have nowhere to forage, so it's no wonder if they don't do it. ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Dadian paused, and then said: "The first mutiny, defenseless, let the rebels succeed, this is understandable, Dengzhou has already won, but Sun Yuanhua is vacillating between Fu and the war, so that Dengzhou is lost, the general soldier Zhang Keda killed his concubine Chen and committed suicide, and he and Song Guanglan, Wang Zheng, Zhang Tao and others were captured.

The subsequent rescue was even more fearful of war, or did not know how to use materials to fund the enemy, or was lucky to appease, resulting in more thieves.

The fearful person is none other than Yu Dacheng, the former governor of Shandong, who heard that Dengzhou had been lost, but he was helpless, so he closed his door and practiced fasting and chanting, and was ridiculed as the 'White Lotus Courtyard'. Another commander-in-chief, Wang Hong, was defeated in Xincheng and actually fled, forcing Yang Yufan to enter Laizhou.

Those who don't know how to use soldiers and materials to fund the enemy are Liu Yulie, the squire of the military department. Liu Yulie commanded 25,000 reinforcements and volunteers from Jimen, Miyun and other places, and the military department also sent six Hongyi cannons to Shahe for delivery.

However, because Liu and other commanders were not familiar with military affairs, the men and horses were mixed, the discipline was unclear, and there was no distinction between horns, and the baggage was also burned by the enemy, and finally the army was defeated in Shahe, the captives were not counted, and a large number of firearms such as cannons were owned by the rebels, and the governor Xu Congzhi was also killed in the cannon on the 16th.

With luck in his heart, Sun Yinglong was deceived by a false surrender and was booby-trapped, and more than 3,000 officers and soldiers and a large number of ships led by him fell into the hands of the enemy.

The defenders of Laizhou, although brave and tenacious, refused to accept the lesson, and still had luck, Zhu Wannian, the prefect of Laizhou, and Xie Lian, the new governor of Denglai, were arrested and killed successively, and tens of thousands of people were killed. ”

Saying that, Zhu Dadian glanced at everyone, but seeing that everyone looked at each other, he knew that he had touched the sore spot of some people, and he didn't want to make more enemies, so he hurriedly changed his words and said: "The purpose of Dadian saying this is not to blame anyone, but to use this, to learn a lesson and not make the same mistake again."

To be honest, this Wuqiao Mutiny is no less than the Lu'an Rebellion during the Apocalypse. Dadian was ordered to supervise the army, and he was honest and fearful, and he did not dare to be negligent in the slightest, and he must know where he was. ”

"He wasn't a person who told right and wrong, and listening to his tone was quite sincere, he shouldn't be lying."

Thinking secretly, everyone's faces turned a little pale, and they all said, "I don't know how the governor judges the current situation." ”

Seeing that everyone believed in him, Zhu Dadian deliberately sighed and said: "In general, because of our mistakes one after another, the rebels have captured a lot and developed very quickly in Shandong.

Not only that, but the rebels allocated 10,000 gold to reward the coastal islands of Liaodong and induce them to rebel.

It should be said that this strategy was quite successful, and the soldiers and civilians of Kashima and Shicheng Island on the coast of the Liaodong Peninsula rebelled, and Huanglong, who was guarding Phi Island, immediately carried out bomb suppression.

Since Huanglong's original family members in Dengzhou were killed or captured when the city was broken, Kong Youde sent Shi Duzhong to pretend to hold the golden hairpin of Huang's wife Liu as a token, wanting to say that Huanglong had conquered Changshan Island, but Huanglong was not threatened, annihilated the rebel party, and went straight to Lushun.

Huanglong insisted on encirclement and suppression, and the military department sent Shang Kexi, Jin Shenghuan and others to pacify the islands, and patrolled their places, comforted the merchants and people, punished the rebel party, and set fire to their boats.

The islanders who wanted to rebel crossed the sea to Dengzhou, including not only Mao Chenglu, the deputy general of Guangludao, who was the head of Mao Wenlong's sons, but also 7 or 8,000 people led by Chen Shishi (formerly known as Mao Youhou), the general of Lushun, who had the largest lineup.

Of course, while the rebels repeatedly succeeded in their treacherous schemes, they also inevitably lost their troops, and Chen, one of the five leaders of the rebels, was sometimes killed in the area of Ximen Village in Pingdu City when he invaded Pingdu City.

In addition, Kong Youde showed signs of being carried away by the temporary victory, and claimed to be the marshal of the capital, and his subordinates were all given the post of chief soldier. Because of the uneven distribution of spoils, there are many contradictions, especially Li Jiucheng and Li Yingyuan's father and son, who are very dissatisfied with it.

Also, after Kong Youde trapped Laizhou, he couldn't fight for a long time, and sent troops to capture Zhaoyuan in an attempt to Laiyang. As a result, a confrontation with our army gradually formed.

Those who participated in the liquidation and suppression of our side successively included Wang Hong, the chief soldier of Tianjin, Liu Guozhu, the chief soldier of Baoding, Yang Yufan, the chief soldier of Tongzhou, Deng Xi, the chief soldier of Jimen, Wu Anbang, the chief soldier of Dengzhou, Chen Hongfan, the chief soldier of Changping, Huang Long, the chief soldier of Dongjiang, and Liu Zeqing, the chief soldier of the volunteers.

The Ministry of War also transferred more than 4,800 elite people from Yi and Han in Shanhaiguan and Ningyuan and other places to enter the customs, and the eunuch Gao Qiqian supervised the military salary, and the chief soldier Jin Guoqi was the commander, and the famous generals such as Jin Guochen, Zu Dabi, Zu Kuan, Zhang Tao, Wu Xiang, and Wu Sangui were under the jurisdiction of Jin Guochen, Zu Dabi, Zu Kuan, Zhang Tao, Wu Xiang, Wu Sangui and other famous generals. Among them, the Yiding troops, composed of Manchuria and other ethnic minorities who had defected to Chengcheng, penetrated deep into the interior for the first time, and their combat effectiveness was particularly strong.

Dadian thinks that this is the current situation of the enemy and us, I don't know if you have anything to add? ”

The confidence of the people was greatly increased, and they all said: "The governor has analyzed it thoroughly, so that we and the others are suddenly open, and the determination to defeat the enemy is determined, please give us a strategy to destroy the enemy as soon as possible." ”

When Zhu Dadian heard this, he was overjoyed and said: "Okay, since everyone has no objections, Dadian announced that from now on, our army will swear to the east."

In order to prevent a repeat of Liu Yulie's mistake of being burned and plundered in the Xinhe and Chengzi areas of Pingdu, our army was divided into three routes, and each army brought three days of food, crossed the Jiaolai River to reach the Xinhe River in Pingdu, and the Dadian was stationed in Jiexinhe to carry out command.

The general soldier Jin Guoqi led the middle lane; General soldiers Chen Hongfan and Liu Zeqing led the South Road; General Wang Zhifu led the north road, and ordered the guerrilla Xu Yuanheng and others to lead the Laiyang army to join the division.

After the division, they marched east from the northwest part of Pingdu, relieved the siege of Laizhou along the road, and then recovered the lost territory and reached Dengzhou.

After arriving in Dengzhou, he promptly told the sea and related parties to work together to completely destroy the rebels. ”
