“...... Destroy my Confucian forest, demolish my Confucian Temple, and sweep away thousands of years of Chinese etiquette, poetry, books and classics. This is not only the change of my Ming Dynasty, is the strange change of the famous religion since the opening up, I Confucius, Mencius wept bitterly Jiuyuan, all those who read and read, and Wu can sit with their hands in their hands, do not think about what to do!

Good! Good! Good! A good article, hearty and full of energy, is enough to inspire people all over the world! ”

In the mansion of Marshal Shi Kefa in Yanzhou, someone read aloud the "Seeking the Eastern Capture" released in the name of Kong Yinzhi, and then applauded repeatedly.

However, Shi Kefa, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, frowned, looked at Qian Qianyi, who was applauded, and looked like he wanted to speak and stopped.

Gao Hongtu, the head of the Nanjing household department, shook his head and said: "Accept it, do you really believe that the Tartars came to Shandong to destroy the Confucian Forest and demolish the Confucian Temple?" ”

Qian Qianyi nodded heavily, his eyes swept in the lobby of the Shuaifu, and the solemn expressions of the five Shangshu in Nanjing, the dozen or so waiters, and the rest of the high-ranking officials were all in his eyes.

"Birds and beasts, soldiers pass by, killing and looting, do all kinds of evil! If you take away my Liaodong, you will kill millions of Liao people, even if you are immortal, you will be plundered into slavery, shaved your hair and easy to wear, and you will no longer be Chinese! And when the eastern captives entered the Kou Pass, they all killed and plundered everything, the old and the weak, the strong and the strong were slaves, and the women were all concubines, and they all plundered Liaodong. Since the change, I have entered the customs six times, killing more than 10 million of my people! Destroy my ancestral temple and thousands of temples! If the saint is resurrected, and sees this beast, won't he climb high and shout, calling on the world's scholars to resist the Tartars and protect the country? ”

In the end, it is the leader of Donglin, and it is powerful to open his mouth, and even Shi Kefa and Gao Hongtu have nothing to say.

"Even if you want to resist the Tartars and protect your family and country, you have to serve the Holy Son of Heaven to beg for thieves and captives! Now that the Son of Heaven is being coerced by others and his power is falling, are we and other ministers just sitting idly by? ”

The person who spoke was a civil official in his forties and fifties, with a mustache, prominent cheekbones, and a few taels of flesh on his face, Qian Qianyi glanced at him, and couldn't help frowning.

This person's name is Huang Shu, and the official worships the lake and the Guangxun according to the imperial history. Originally, he should not have gone to Yanzhou, but Zhu Cihong was in a hurry to reform the Metropolitan Procuratorate and summoned all the inspectors sent to various places to Yanzhou. So this Huang Shu came from Huguang to Yanzhou.

It's not good to stay in Yanzhou, he is a member of the Donglin Party, of course he has to mix with Shi Kefa and Qian Qianyi, jumping up and down, tossing to save Emperor Chongzhen's drive. As a result, within a few days of tossing, a Yan Shenggong was tossed away. Two days later, the "Discussion of the Eastern Prisoners" drafted in the name of Yan Shenggong was posted at the gates of Yanzhou City, and it was also distributed to the loyal ministers gathered in Yanzhou City in the form of a newspaper.

Qian Qianyi, the leader of Donglin, was really led by Zhu Cihong's nose and left, and as soon as he arrived at the lobby of the Shuaifu today, he didn't mention anything to save his father, but only said that he wanted to protect his name and religion and protect Confucius - Qian Qianyi was cut down and returned to his hometown, that is, he was expelled from public office! Naturally, he was not a courtier of Emperor Chongzhen, but he was still a scholar, so he didn't sit on his sleeve and watched Kong Lin being destroyed.

His generosity and admiration thought that it would change the direction of public opinion in Yanzhou, but he didn't expect that a Huang Shu, who was also from the Donglin Party, would appear and not know what kind of madness he had, and he actually went against him.

Seeing Huang Shu's righteous words, Qian Qianyi was also a little speechless. He knew that this guy in front of him was just going to compete with him for the leader of Donglin!

The Donglin Party, of course, has to ask for the doctor's life to fight against the imperial power that competes with the people! Whether Zhu Cihong, the crown prince, wants to usurp the throne or not, it is actually not a matter of Guan Donglin, but his behavior of rectifying the guard center in Shandong and holding a large group training has violated the red line of the interests of scholars.

At this time, Donglin needs to come forward! Whoever dares to stand up will be able to replace Qian Qianyi, who compromised with the imperial power, and become the new leader of Donglin!

Of course, Huang Shu can't directly speak for the encroachment on the land of the guard. In this way, it will not be able to occupy the moral high ground, and the Donglin Party will rely on morality to fight against imperial power.

So he had to talk about "respecting the emperor" - although what they wanted to do in the Donglin Party was simply to limit the imperial power.

Similarly, Zhu Cihong did not talk about the land, but raised the banner of "Protecting the Name of the Religion, Defending Confucius and Mencius" - to be honest, this banner seems to be more suitable for the Donglin Party.

Qian Qianyi snorted and glared at Huang Shu angrily: "Brother Zhonglin, don't say that the Son of Heaven is being coerced ......"

......

Jinan.

In the official office of Gao Jie, the commander of the reinforcement army, all the family members who came and went were heralds, and everyone was pale. One after another, orders were issued from Gao Jie, and they flew out. Inside and outside the official office, it was even more heavily guarded, and every soldier was so nervous that he couldn't do it.

For no other reason, Gao Jie sent out the night and did not collect it, and suddenly found that the new army of the brigade under the banner of the prince of Fujun was approaching Jinan from the east! The small forces sent by Gao Jie in Zouping and Zhangqiu were all driven back by the approaching army. Gao Jie's subordinates who ran back with a sad face were all shocked to return, and the number of the prince's army who came to force was only no less than 40,000, and the equipment was fine, and the people were strong and strong!

Although Gao Jie's department claims to be 30,000, the real ones that can fight are only 2,000 families, all of which are troops brought by Gao Jie from the Liukou. Although the combat power is not weak, it can't beat 3,000 Tartars!

And Zhu Cihong's new army of overcoming difficulties is a strong force that has cut off nearly 3,000 Tartar heads!

Just such a record makes Gao Jie worry these days - he wants to know that the victory in Dagukou is true, so he doesn't dare to follow Shi Kefaqin! Be diligent and diligent!

These days, the news of Zhu Cihong's rectification of the guard post in Denglai and how to train the new army to train mentally has reached Jinan. Gao Jie is an insider, and when he heard it, he knew that the new army had gone crazy. In war, I am not afraid of encountering strong soldiers, but I am afraid of meeting madmen. It's terrible to go crazy!

Because a strong soldier is only ruthless to the enemy, while a madman is ruthless to himself and to the enemy, an army that is not afraid of hardship and death.

However, Gao Jie is not the master who is casually handled, and the subordinates immediately started to move. At the battlements of the city wall, soldiers on duty were sent to defend the battle equipment, and a batch was also built as much as possible. The moats outside the city were also cleared, and water from the Daqing River was brought in, and the moat, which had long dried up, was restored.

Groups of people were sent out at night, and at the same time, the gentry in Jinan City were sent to meet the prince's army with oxen, wine and wealth, and by the way, they asked for a letter - His Royal Highness the prince suddenly led troops here, for what?

However, the gentry sent out never came back, and Gao Jie's troops did not collect it at night, and they could only watch the rapid approach of Zhu Cihong's army, and they were afraid that they would soon be outside the city of Jinan.

In the government office, Gao Jie just sat behind the handsome case, propped up on the case with one hand, and didn't speak. His henchmen Li Chengdong and Li Benshen sat on the left and right chairs. Seeing him like this, Li Chengdong couldn't help but snort and said, "Zong Rong, are we letting the city go?" Jinan has long been plagued by Tartars and thieves, and there is nothing to fish. ”

Gao Jie was shocked, and glared at Li Chengdong fiercely: "Where are you going?" The north is Tartar, and the west is Li Zicheng, which one do you let Lao Tzu vote for? ”

Gao Jie can't vote for Li Zicheng, Li Zicheng's wife told him to abduct him, isn't he looking for death if he votes for Li Zicheng? And being a traitor is not within Gao Jie's consideration.

"Then go south and go to Yanzhou!" Li Benshen said, "The Tartars in the north can go south at any time, and we have nothing to defend in Jinan, so let's leave as soon as possible." When I arrived in Yanzhou, it depended on what Shi Butang said. Anyway, the sky is falling, and there is a history hall for them to bear. ”

Li Chengdong nodded and said, "We have soldiers and generals in our hands, so there is nothing to be afraid of." Besides, there is a Huang Chuangzi on Shi Butang's side...... If we really want to make trouble, we are the ones who have to be co-opted at both ends. ”

"It's better to do this!" Gao Jie touched his beard and exhaled, "He's N, I heard that the prince has money in hand, and we don't want much, and we can be content with three or five hundred thousand taels." ”

In fact, the purpose of his following Shi Kefa to make trouble was for silver! Shi Kefa gave him the silver when he went north, and if he could get another share from Zhu Cihong, he wouldn't mind betraying Shi Kefa.

Just when Gao Jie made up his mind, a henchman of his heart suddenly came in outside, and after a salute, he reported: "Zong Rong, Mrs. has come to Jinan." ”

"Okay," Gao Jie nodded, "just discuss it with her." ”

"But Madame didn't enter the city," Ding Ding's next words made Gao Jie stunned and stunned, "She went to Yantou Town, east of Jinan Fucheng." ”
