"It's against him!"

"Since the court is unfair to us, he is neither benevolent nor righteous to me!"

"Avenge Mao Shuai!"

"Those people are not worth our lives for them!"

……

In the military tent, the crowd was surging, full of heartfelt complaints, and all mouths spit out the grievances, sadness, grievances and grief in their hearts!

Their voices grew louder and louder, and the roof of the tent was shaken.

Until the general on the handsome case shouted angrily: "Enough! ”

Everyone's voices stopped and they all looked at the general.

The general's face, dignified appearance, not very old (early thirties), but the two hairs have seen the wind and frost, it is Kong Youde!

After the Jin occupied Liaoshen, Kong Youde and his brother Kong Youxing defected to the Ming general Mao Wenlong, participated in the Zhenjiang victory and broke the Houjin, and then followed Mao Wenlong to Phi Island, after Mao Wenlong was killed by Yuan Chonghuan, Kong Youde thought that Mao Wenlong was "innocent and cruel", and felt very cold, unable to stay in Phi Island, so he defected to Sun Yuanhua and went to Dengmo with Sun Yuanhua.

Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai, treated Mao Wenlong well, he thought that the Liao people were available, gathered the Liao people into an army, and reused a group of Liao generals, of which Mao Wenlong had 1,000 cavalry. (Cavalry is an aristocratic army in ancient times, and the commander of the army is definitely trusted)

Last year, Sun Chengzong built Dalinghe City with his ancestors, and the Houjin army surrounded Dalinghe, and came to encircle the point to send reinforcements, but the infantry of the Southeast Province participated in the battle of Ningyuan Army to relieve the siege, and sniped the Great Chief Yue Tuo of Houjin, which had a huge impact and shocked Houjin!

In order to unite people's hearts and encourage morale, Huang Taiji, the chief of the Later Jin Dynasty, repeated his old tricks and led an army of 100,000 troops to bypass the heavily guarded Daling River and Ningyuanjin front line in the Ming Dynasty, and then enter the Kou from Longjing Pass, Daankou and Hongshankou!

Although those places have been rebuilt, but the army is quite weak, do not dare to go to war at all, the big cities are stubbornly defended, the small towns are broken, such as the enemy chief Azig was fined sheep and horses for the previous Dalinghe City for the poor combat in the previous Dalinghe City, but he was given a lot of plunder in the territory of the Ming Kingdom, and the gains were rich, not only the losses were recovered, but the gains were more than enough.

When the news came, the imperial capital was terrified, and the city gate was closed during the day, and Emperor Chongzhen issued an edict to King Qin, and all parts responded, among which Sun Yuanhua sent an army to Beijing.

Kong Youde was ordered by Sun Yuanhua's generals, and he led his headquarters (1,000 cavalry) to gallop along the land route to aid the Beijing Division, and the rest of the army followed behind.

However, he discovers a terrible fact, the world has the biggest belly, and the stomach is hungry than the white-knuckle battle with the Houjin army!

He set off from Dengzhou, along the way is the boundary of Shandong, Dengzhou Liaodong soldiers and Shandong people have never been in harmony, along the way closed the door to boycott the market, unwilling to support the supply, Liaodong cavalry has no food and grass supply, hungry people are dizzy and neighing, miserable!

The reason why the Liaodong Army was at odds with the people of Shandong was that the military discipline of the Liaodong Army was corrupt, and the people were angry and voted with their feet.

Therefore, for the general, one step must be counted as three steps!

Sun Yuanhua is certainly talented, but how can it be so easy to do military affairs with civil ministers, the discipline of the Liaodong army is corrupt, but he does not rectify it, and he knows that the Liaodong army is not in harmony with the people of Shandong, but he does not send civilian officials to persuade and guide the people to support it...... In contrast, Yan Changwu of the Southeast Prefecture knew the army and managed the army, and as a local magistrate, he was still the captain of a battleship, and he managed it independently from then on, so he was very skilled in navigation, gunnery, and shipping, and was able to solve problems.

Governing the country is like cooking a small fresh, and the army is a murder weapon, and if you are not careful, you will hurt yourself.

The Liaodong cavalry of Dengzhou marched to the Wuqiao section of Cangzhou, which coincided with the heavy snowfall, and people could not find anything to eat, and horses could not find grass to eat, which was very miserable.

They entered Wuqiao, looking for food everywhere, Wuqiao is a small place, and there are many disasters in the north, it is really difficult to support the army's food and lodging.

In any case, they had to fill their stomachs, and the soldiers went from house to house, like robbers, breaking into people's houses and demanding food.

Of course, they only dare to go to the small people's houses, and they still dare not go to those decent big families.

However, there was an accident in everything, they broke into a private house, robbed a chicken, did not give money, and left!

This private family is not a wealthy family, but he is a servant of Wang Xiangchun, a big family in Wuqiao, and he can't think of it, so he complains to the master's family.

The main family naturally helped his family, and Wang Xiangchun sent his son to find Kong Youde to complain and ask him to pay attention to the impact. It is said that there are more than a dozen people in the family, and Kong Youde is just a regiment-level cadre (in charge of 1,000 people), how can he afford to offend him.

He tried to rectify military discipline and inflict the punishment of the soldiers who violated discipline, which was second only to the punishment of beheading, in his opinion, punished the soldiers, and gave an explanation to Wang Xiangchun.

It's a pity that the soldiers made an uproar and burned down the royal manor.

Kong Youde was furious! He arrested the troublemakers and prepared to punish them severely, but the soldiers pleaded to him: "We came from Liaodong, and everyone regarded us as lost dogs. If Mao Shuai is still there, why not! ”

Speaking of Mao Wenlong, Kong Youde's eyes were also red, he had nothing to answer, and released the soldiers!

Seeing that he was shaken, the general Li Jiucheng corrected the generals, gathered in the military tent, and persuaded Kong Youde, since the court is unkind, then we are also unjust, on the contrary!

Li Jiucheng is the old man of Phi Dao, he has a name called Mao Yougong, and he is Mao Wenlong's godson!

Mao Wenlong lost his wind, Li Jiucheng was frustrated, he was very unhappy in Dengzhou, how could he be happy in Phi Island!

He was full of resentment and urged Mao Wenlong to say: "How can the husband not be happy, I was born and died, loyal to the Ming Dynasty, but threatened by a big family, this Ming Dynasty is no longer worthy of our loyalty, on the contrary!" ”

"Mao Shuai is here, we will naturally obey the Ming Dynasty, Mao Shuai is like Yue Fei, who is not wronged, and his death is not clear, so there is no need to be polite to them!"

……

The word of the crowd, Kong Youde and evil are born to the side of the gall, we are against the Ming Dynasty!

In front of the orders of the generals of Liaodong, Kong Youde swore an oath: "If the court does not rehabilitate Mao Shuai, I swear not to be obedient!" ”

Taking this as an excuse, he immediately led his troops to the rear, where there were Liaodong infantry, and when he said to them, it was exactly what he wanted, but he turned against the Ming Dynasty, and the trouble of the armpits became a prairie fire. (Comment: Yuan Chonghuan misled the country, Yan Changwu Feishu of the Southeast Prefecture persuaded him that if he could not stabilize the situation on Phi Dao, it would be better not to move Mao Wenlong, but Yuan did not listen)

The rebels captured Linghe, Linyi and Shanghe prefectures and counties, plundered the southwest of Shandong, and sent an urgent document to Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai.

At this time, Sun Yuanhua was very calm, he thought that he was not weak to Kong Youde and could appease this group of rebels, so he sent someone to send a letter to Kong Youde, asking them to return to Dengzhou.

Kong Youde seemed to be obedient again, and led the army back to Dengzhou, while Sun Yuanhua continued to go deeper on the road to death, and he ordered the officers and troops along the way to let the rebels go without interception.

The rebels went all the way to Dengzhou, passing through Laizhou, and Zhu Wancheng, the prefect of Laizhou, knew about the matter, and he ordered the city gate to be closed tightly and asked the rebels to go around the city.

Kong Youde personally shouted: "Brother Wancheng, can't you even trust my brother?" The gates are not even opened, we are cold and hungry, and we need supplies, so open the door. ”

The two are actually familiar with each other, not acquaintances, Zhu Wancheng said hesitantly: "Brother Ruitu, I have a hanging basket here, if you sit up and go to the city, I will believe you and set up a banquet with you to accompany the crime!" ”

Kong Youde: "Hehe......"

Zhu Wancheng: "Hehehe......"

The rebels walked around the city, and Zhu Wancheng said in his heart: "Sun Chuyang (Sun Yuanhua's character), don't be confused, this rebel army can only be trusted if the leader and the soldiers are separated!" ”

The so-called fear of what is more and more, scholars manage the army, the entire Ming Dynasty may only have one Wang Yangming to do martial arts as a civil servant is a strong man, and the rest are ambitious and incapable, Sun Yuanhua still believes that he can appease Kong Youde, and neglects to take precautions. Kong Youde took the opportunity to let more than 300 of his subordinates surrender, infiltrated Dengzhou City, conspired with Geng Zhongming and others in the city, and took advantage of the night when people were asleep, attacked inside and outside, occupied Dengzhou City, and captured Sun Yuanhua and Ming garrison Song Guanglan, sub-patrol Wang Mei and other officials.

The 30,000 Liaodong soldiers in the city are all returned to Kong Youde, and the thieves are blazing!

Governor Yamen, when Sun Yuanhua saw Kong Youde, he glared at him angrily, and the look of deeply hurt feelings he showed made Kong Youde, who was a wicked person, feel embarrassed and ashamed!

Kong Youde tried to persuade Sun Yuanhua to surrender, saying: "I am willing to serve Lord Sun as the leader......"

Sun Yuanhua interrupted him and said sharply: "I am deeply favored by the country, how can I do such an unfaithful and unrighteous thing, don't mention it again, it's just death!" ”

Li Jiucheng said angrily: "Death is on the verge of death, dare to do this, it is not good to deceive us with a knife?!" ”

Kong Youde waved his hand and said: "Brother Jiucheng doesn't have to be angry, come, please ask Mr. Sun to rest in the guest room, don't be lazy." ”

After escorting Sun Yuanhua down, Li Jiucheng said dissatisfiedly: "Why are you so polite to him? ”

Kong Youde said: "Sun Yuanhua is not enough to make trouble, and the scholarly business is angry, so he can't deal with us at all." And he is indeed gracious to us, we must not be ungrateful, do not forget, we do things, others also see us! ”

"And what are you going to do?" Li Jiucheng asked.

"Ask again tomorrow, and if he still refuses, then let him go!" Kong Youde said, and Li Jiucheng did not object.

Then Kong Youde asked about the situation in the city, Geng Zhongming said that the general soldier Zhang Keda held on to Dengzhou Shuicheng, and had been surrounded by the army, and Shang Kexi said that he could get the artillery of the city's artillery manufacturing bureau, Kong Youde was overjoyed, and said that he was ready to use artillery to attack the city.

He suddenly remembered something and asked, "Do the musketeers of the Southeast Province know where they are?" ”

Geng Zhongming said that he found that they had fled into the water city, and they would gather tomorrow to be annihilated!

Kong Youde put his mind at ease, and that night, the four chiefs felt comfortable and stayed in the Yamen of the governor of Dengzhou.

The night is getting deeper!

And the musketeers of the Southeast Province are also in action!
