In Fan Wencheng's view, it is better to cut off one of his fingers than to hurt his ten fingers.

Instead of sending more troops to deal with the Ming army in the south, it was better to concentrate on eliminating the rebel army in Shandong.

In this way, it can still play a certain deterrent role in anti-Qing people all over the world.

Shunzhi thought about it carefully and felt that what Fan Wencheng said was very reasonable.

The Ming army has become bigger, and it is impossible to think of annihilation in a big war like before, so you can only think about it in the long run.

In this case, the primary issue is to concentrate on the elimination of the Den Lai rebels. Otherwise, when this army develops for a few years, it is likely to become what the Ming army is now, and the tail will not be lost.

"Mr. Fan is really my Zhang Liangye."

Shunzhi cleared his throat and said loudly: "Proposed order, transfer the green camp from Henan and other places into Shandong, everything is commanded by Ji Xiha, and you must take Denglai within a month." ”

In fact, Shunzhi originally wanted to set half a month, but when he thought that half a month was a bit too strict, it was changed to a month.

Anyway, taking down Denglai can be regarded as a way to boost morale, and it is impossible to dwell on these details at the moment.

...

...

Shandong, Jinan.

When he received the decree, he was very excited.

Instead of blaming him for being unfavorable, the emperor transferred a large number of green battalion soldiers from Henan and other places to supplement his strength.

This moved Jishiha to tears.

He knelt down to the north and kowtowed several times, and said something in his mouth; "How can a slave be so respectful to the emperor. The minions must do their best to smear the emperor's liver and brain. ”

As a banner man, Jishiha is well aware that the current situation is not optimistic.

Although the Qing Dynasty still owns most of the world, after all, it is a foreign race, and it is a small race that dominates the big country, and it may collapse at any time.

As long as the Qing Dynasty lost these territories, the rebel armies everywhere would come to beat the water dogs like Yu Qi in Denglai Qixia Mountain.

In order to protect themselves, they could only frantically suppress and stifle the signs of the uprising.

This is also why the emperor attaches so much importance to the situation of Denglai.

This opening can't be opened, once it is opened, the situation will get out of control everywhere.

The last time he attacked Laizhou, he was a little light, and he divided his troops and was broken by each one.

This time, he must learn a lesson, and the main force will attack Jiaozhou Bay, first take Jiaozhou Bay and then advance to Dengzhou.

In these days in Shandong, Ji Xiha has figured out a truth, that is, he must not pity the troops and worry about losses.

Especially these green battalion soldiers, they just need to change their stubble after they die.

As long as Denglai can be taken, what if 100,000 people die.

Last time, he had too many scruples, and in the end, he couldn't use his strength to hinder left and right.

Today's situation is different from a few years ago, and we must not be soft-hearted when we should be ruthless, otherwise they can only be unlucky enough to be the Manchu banner people.

The holy decree not only stated that the power of commanding the army would be returned to Jixiha, but also allocated 500,000 taels of silver to Jixiha.

The money was not for military pay, but for the use of Jishiha flexibly.

To put it bluntly, it is for reward.

As long as Jixiha can wipe out the Denglai rebel army, the 500,000 taels of silver will be distributed with Jixiha.

Zishiha was not a greedy man, and of course he would not take all the money to himself, but would at least give half of it to his henchmen.

In this way, the soldiers will definitely work hard for their families, and the possibility of winning this Shandong battle will be higher.

However, the new governor of Shandong was a little out of his appetite.

This person is not someone else, it is the patriarch of the Three Dynasties, Ning Wan.

At the time of the Taizong Dynasty, Ning Wan I was the most important advisor of the Qing court.

At that time, Ji Xiha and Ning Wan had a few contacts.

It was these few encounters that left a very bad impression on Jishiha.

In his impression, Ning Wan was a very arrogant person.

As long as it was something he believed in, it was impossible for ten cows to pull it back.

Why did Your Majesty send Ning Wan and me to be the governor of Shandong?

Could it be that His Majesty still doesn't fully trust him?

Or did His Majesty feel that his wit alone was not enough to win, so Ning Wan and I came to Shandong to make an idea for him?

Either way, Jishiha felt a little uncomfortable.

I'm supposed to be seventy years old, right?

People have lived for 70 years, and they are already in their seventies, and they are not at home to recuperate, so what is it to come here to wade in this troubled water.

However, fortunately, the emperor stated in the holy decree that the power to command the army is all vested in Xiha, which means that Ning Wan has no right to interfere in this point, at most only the right to suggest.

This made Zishiha feel a little more comfortable.

As long as this Ning Wan and I know how to restrain his stinky temper, the two of them will barely get by if the well water does not interfere with the river water.

...

...

"Hurry, hurry!"

I lifted the curtain of the carriage, looked at the trees flying outside the window, and urged anxiously.

"Master, it's already very fast, and if it is too fast, the carriage will fall apart."

The coachman said helplessly.

"Can you get to Jinan City before dark?"

"I'm afraid it's going to be hard like this, we might have to stay at the inn for one night."

I'm a little disappointed.

The emperor was worried about the war in Shandong, and was afraid that only sending military generals would not be able to stabilize the situation, so he decided to appoint a new governor of Shandong to preside over the overall situation.

Shunzhi hesitated for a long time between Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan, and finally chose Ning Wan.

Ning Wan, I was moved after learning about it.

The emperor's grace is magnificent, the emperor's grace is magnificent.

He finally overwhelmed the other party in a direct battle with Fan Wencheng.

He had already reached the age of retirement and stayed at home all day to take care of his grandchildren, but now the emperor remembered that he had assigned him an important task, and he naturally could not live up to the emperor's expectations.

Of course, I am no stranger to Ningwan in Shandong, in fact, it was Ningwan's idea that the Qing army entered the Kou and plundered Jining.

There are canals in Shandong, Linqing and other places are very prosperous, and the Qing army has robbed a lot of money in Shandong, which is far from being comparable to the barren cities in the north. It is not an exaggeration to say that Shandong is a small Jiangnan.

It's just that after so many years, many cities in Shandong have become barren due to war, and the canal has lost its former glory.

But the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and this does not prevent Shandong from remaining one of the richest places in the north.

Denglai is near the sea, and the geographical location is extremely important, so nothing can be occupied by thieves.

Along the way, Ning Wan thought of many plans, how to quickly recapture Denglai. Now he has a draft in his heart, and he can discuss it with Ji Xiha after he arrives in Jinan.

There are hundreds of Qing soldiers guarding Ning Wan and I went to Shandong, these Qing soldiers are all cavalry, and they are one person and two horses, and they can be replaced with horses, and the speed is naturally extremely fast.

However, I was too old to ride a horse and could only ride in a carriage, which slowed down the pace.

Ning Wan felt a little guilty of this, but he saw that the sky was indeed dark, so he had to order: "That's it, let's find a nearby post station to rest for one night before setting off." ”
