On the 28th day of the first lunar month, the two white flag armies drove back to Jinan City, and then plundered Jinan City and several nearby prefectures and counties. More than 100,000 captives were imprisoned, more than 100,000 pigs, cattle, sheep, mules and horses were driven, more than 100,000 stones, grains, rice, and beans were transported, as well as a large number of captured ordnance and baggage, forming a marching force that lasted dozens of miles.

Along the way, Jiannu plundered countless vehicles, mules and horses, or wheelbarrows, cars, or horse-drawn carriages, etc., and at a rough glance, there were tens of thousands of vehicles. These vehicles were all full of grain, rice, gold and silver, and in addition, the people who were captured were all young and strong men, each of whom either carried grain bags or heavy cloth bundles on their backs, and took away as much as possible the captured wealth and harvest that could be taken away in the city of Jinan.

"You people, stay in the city of Jinan, and take care of these people and property that have not had time to be transported."

Pointing to some of the clumsy things piled up in the palace, and dozens of tightly sealed wooden boxes, Dorgon instructed several of the officers of the Cow-Jacketed Ox, "You don't need to stay long. One day is fine! ”

Several officers reluctantly agreed.

The army of Dolgon on the front foot went out of the north gate and went to the direction of Dezhou and Cangzhou, and the brigade of the southern army on the back foot killed the city of Ximen.

With a sharp brass horn, several ladders were erected at the head of Jinan, and hundreds of firecrackers aimed at the battlements next to the ladders with the muzzles of black holes.

The military horses defending the city knew that they were invincible, and they shouted without even putting a handful of fire, so they hurried out of the north gate and took the road. Chase after the brigade.

"Two fathers-in-law, Lord De, can we enter the city?!"

Shouhan grabbed the reins of his horse, with a smile on his face, and pointed to the tall city wall of Jinan with a complicated expression on his side, Wang Dehua, Wang Chengen, and the frightened King De.

Regarding Shouhan's contempt for Prince De so much, Wang Dehua and Wang Chengen did not put forward any words to refute it, on the contrary, the two of them acquiesced in this attitude.

On that day, Shouhan consulted with the two of them, and proposed that in order to preserve the dignity of the royal family, he would use the two great military exploits in his hands to exchange for the family of King De who was captured by Jiannu. Such a move surprised the two at first. Then he sighed.

"The imperial history of the DPRK and China has some complaints about General Li, claiming that Li is arrogant. Now it seems that General Li is dedicated to the country, how can he be compared to that group of crows?! ”

The two generously agreed. After returning to Beijing, he had to perform a secret performance in front of the emperor to commend Lord Li's merits.

Of course. Yue Tuo and Du Du's identities related to the dragons, armor, customs and other things are not missing. All of them are kept tightly guarded as a proof of meritorious service in the future.

On that day, he exchanged a series of men with Abatai for King De, and it was Wang Chengen who led the good hands of Dongchang to peep in secret. Serve as a vigilance.

When they learned that they had returned to the warm and broad embrace of the Ming Dynasty officials, King De and everyone couldn't help crying loudly, the taste of the country being ruined, the feeling of being a human being in two lives, they all experienced it in just a few days.

"Why don't you take advantage of the victory? Summoning up Yu Yong to completely wipe out this shareholder slave in Shandong?! ”

Zhu Ensheng, the general of Fengguo who was the first to slow down, immediately took out the style of his clan nobles, and took care of the ancestral system that had to intervene in military and political affairs, and jumped his halberd and shouted loudly. Those two fingers were almost poking into Shouhan's face.

"It's over!"

Wang Chengen sighed in his heart.

"Smack!" With two crisp slaps, Zhu Enxian's cheeks immediately became red and swollen, and two teeth spat out of his mouth. It was Li Huabao and one of his attendants who beat him on the other side.

"You! You kid, dare you hit me?! Seeing that although this young man was not very old, he was dressed luxuriously and commandingly, Zhu Ensheng knew that he must be very human, but he couldn't swallow this evil breath.

"Zhu Ensheng, don't be presumptuous! This is Governor Li's second son! ”

Wang Dehua put on the demeanor and demeanor of the eunuch who was the master of ceremonies and the eunuch to stop this skirmish. During this period of time, he and Wang Chengen and the people of the Nanzhong Army were also in blood and fire a few times, and their friendship was naturally far better than that of this group of German royal clans.

"Who are you? You minion, get out of here! ”

Zhu Ensheng was probably confused by Li Huabao, and his eyes didn't see the python robe on Wang Dehua's body.

"Our family is indeed a slave, but it is a slave of the emperor. General Zhu, I forgot to say that our family is the eunuch Wang Dehua, the master of ceremonies, and this is Wang Chengen's father-in-law. ”

As soon as these words came out, from King De down, all the captive clans who were exchanged back fell to their knees, trembling one by one. Many people think of the fate that awaits them: the country is captured, the royal dignity is lost, and it is light to be sent to the Fengyang high wall to be banned! When you get to that step in the field, I'm afraid that any eunuch can pinch yourself to death!

"Lord Li specially rescued you, it's not good to give birth to Xie Lu Xie?!"

Wang Dehua and Wang Chengen, who were respectful in front of the Shouhan, and the officers and soldiers of the Beijing battalion, did not have a good face for this group of useless wastes.

The continuous bloody battles in the past few days have gradually shed these impurities among the slippery and impetuous officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp, and have reproduced some of the majesty, bravery, iron-blooded and murderous aura of the ancestors of the Beijing camp back then. And it was the South Central Army that helped them carry out this rebirth. After several major battles, Wu Guerrilla and others chatted in private, if other officers and soldiers in the Beijing camp encountered such a big battle, they should not say that they had killed the enemy and made meritorious contributions, but they were afraid that it would be good not to pee their pants on the way to escape!

The group didn't say much, and rode straight into Jinan City.

The palace of the German king has not been destroyed. After a hasty tidying up, this place became the temporary marshal's mansion of Shouhan. As for the original owner, King De, I'm sorry, just like an angry little daughter-in-law, he stammered with the two princes with low eyebrows, trying to ask the princess to write a supernatural life, and show mercy in his mouth.

Obviously, the Qing army left in a hurry, a large number of captives were still stranded in the city and never left the city, and many antique calligraphy, paintings, books and other things were neatly sorted out and placed in boxes and baskets ready to be transported away.

"General Yu. Our army counted 118,792 captives in the city. Most of them are women and children, and there are no more than 10,000 young and strong people. ”

In addition to these populations, which were de facto part of the Dolgon brothers' dealings with the Yugoslav Army. There are also tens of thousands of taels of gold and silver piled up in the Yin'an Palace, if it weren't for his embarrassing identity and no room to speak, King De would almost say that it was his own money.

"General, the seizures in the city are all the achievements of the Nanzhong Army. Ask the general to reward the soldiers. ”

Wang Dehua was very generous and gave the money, antiques, books and people left by these Jiannu to Shouhan for disposal.

"The recovery of Jinan is the result of the bloody battle of the officers and men of all armies. Shouhan did not dare to be greedy for heavenly merit for himself. And they will receive all the gold and silver in this city, and reward all the soldiers of the army. To motivate soldiers to kill thieves for the country! ”

Hearing that the Shouhan wanted to distribute all the gold and silver seized in Jinan to the soldiers participating in the battle, the officers of the Ming army led by Wu Guerrilla couldn't help but smile happily.

These officers and men of the Beijing battalion and the officers and men of Shandong were extremely envious of the rich military achievements and rewards of the Nanzhong Army. Especially Wu guerrilla these people. Consciously this trip with the two fathers-in-law to the south. Although it is risky, it is very rewarding. In terms of military exploits, almost every one of them has a Tartar's head in the account, and on money. Ordinary soldiers have a few hundred taels of income. Many have an income of nearly 1,000 taels.

Now we can share another reward for military merit. Do these people have any reason why they don't like to smile?

"Alas! It's a pity that the two slave chiefs of Duoduo and Dorgon have gone! Otherwise, the two of them would have been rewarded with 200,000 gold by the general! ”

The Tai'an guerrillas were very sorry to express their opinions.

Shouhan offered a reward of 100,000 gold coins for each of the Dolgon brothers, and the news had already spread among the troops who came to help. The teasing armies are all gearing up. I hope I have the luck to capture or behead Dorgon or Dorgon alive, even if I rush up and slash twice when someone else kills them, I can get some gold back!

As for why such a heavy reward was offered, the two princes were quite puzzled. Privately, I have also asked why the guardian has such a heavy reward? is also the chief of the Eight Banners, why is Yue Tuo only priced at 100,000 silver dollars?

In this regard, Shouhan said something that shocked the hearts of the two princes.

"The old slave is just a horse bandit, and he only knows that Lu Dao slaughtered and plundered in Liaodong. Hong Tai's talent is only Gongsun Du, Gao Jianwu, Yuangai Suwen and the like, and his wish in life is just to be crowned the king of Shunyi like Altan Khan and obtain the business qualification of Kaibian City! Only the slave chieftain Dolgon, known as the wise king, not only has the ambition of Kublai Khan, but also has the ability of Kublai Khan, and has his brother and his brother as the left and right wings, and his subordinates have two white flags and horses as minions. If I can't kill Dorgon and the Dodor brothers, this fang will surely become a nightmare for my Ming Dynasty in the future! ”

After entering the city, there were more affairs, but fortunately, in order to make friends with the two great eunuchs, some local officials in Shandong did not hesitate to brave the wind and snow to rush to Jinan to report to the prince, and volunteered to deal with many civil affairs.

Bury the body, clean up the garbage, and renovate the Temple of Literature. Statistics of the tragic deeds of the martyrdom of the scholars after the city was broken, and they were very busy.

Only no one bothered to ask about the more than 110,000 people trapped in the streets and alleys of Jinan, their food and clothing, illness and medicine.

Jiannu in Japan, although there are constant beatings, insults, and adultery every day, but at least two meals of rice soup and gruel a day, not like now, although the city was recovered by the Ming officials, but the people were treated as nothing by the officials.

After a day of hunger and cold, I finally waited for hope.

Dozens of war horses surrounded an officer, galloping back and forth several times in the streets and alleys where these people were confined, and looked at the courtyards.

"This official is the Southern Central Army of the Ming Dynasty, the Governor of the Southern Central Army, the Horse Money and Grain Minister, the commander of the Third Brigade under the command of Lord Li, Liao Dongzhi!"

"Don't be impatient, my Nanzhong Army has already controlled the whole city, and there will be porridge and food distribution later!"

Seeing that these military masters are all sturdy, their faces are shiny, and although they speak in a rough voice, they are also quite polite to the people. There are those who know some Ming army equipment, seeing that these people carry long knives at their waists, and they are carrying long black and shiny fire guns behind them, and the shiny breastplates are shining between the ups and downs of the wind and snow, and the breastplates are carrying large and small sub-medicine boxes.

Many people dared to believe that they had really escaped the clutches of Jiannu this time. Thinking about the relatives who were killed and taken away by Jiannu, I couldn't help but cry loudly these women and children, and for a while, the crying over half of the city shook the sky.

Soon, the cooking carts of the baggage team appeared in the streets and alleys, and the hot water vapor dispersed over the crowd. Let people see hope. These captives have been hungry and cold for a long time, and they can't help but twitch greedily when they smell the aroma of rice grains, and they are happy to breathe more aroma.

"One bowl per person, and another meal after two hours!"

The secretaries banged on the spoons and shouted loudly. This is common sense, over the years, every time a mainland homeless person takes a boat to Nanzhong, some people have been strangled to death because of gluttony. Therefore, the South and Central Army has also accumulated ways to deal with it, eat small meals and eat more often, enhance gastrointestinal vitality and then eat normally.

These rice porridges are served in bowls. The slimy one is quite exciting. The chopsticks are stuck diagonally on it, motionless.

Drinking thick rice porridge and eating some fish floss, many women couldn't stop sobbing, this was the most reassuring and comfortable meal since they were captured. Drinking hot rice porridge. Clothed in futon. Roasting on a warm fire. Although the night was really difficult to endure with wind and snow, the hearts of everyone were filled with infinite hope, and many people had no sleep that day.

Then. Although there were nurses in the battalion, there were too many wounds, gunshot wounds, burns, knife wounds, and most importantly, frostbite that made Nanfang Langzhong helpless, and the health camp could not take care of them for a while. Therefore, it is necessary to select some people from among the women to come and help.

"Anyone who is willing to take care of the wounded soldiers can enjoy the food of our Nanzhong Army! Enough rice, flatbread, and meat! ”

Then, the young and middle-aged people among the captives were singled out, registered separately, and organized according to the battalions of the Nanzhong Army, which were called auxiliary volunteers.

And the Cao gang who came all the way from the canal to help, carrying the silver dollars issued by the masters of the Nanzhong Army in their arms, with an armband on their left arm, they were full of spirit and acted as the task of maintaining order in Jinan City, and acted as a volunteer propagandist.

These people, a team of five or six people, with a lightly wounded member of the Nanzhong Army as the leader, holding the Jiannu swords, guns, and weapons captured on the battlefield in their hands, led more than a dozen auxiliary soldiers to maintain order in the city, publicized the military exploits of the Nanzhong Army, and boasted of the wealth and stability of the Nanzhong.

"We can be regarded as people who have seen the world in the north and south, and have seen blood in our hands! But when have you ever seen these military masters of the Southern Central Army so able to fight? It's not a murder without blinking, your knife is cut down, I would rather let you cut it than stab you with a gun! ”

"Look at those military masters, they are all a man with a piece of armor on their bodies, and there is not a felt hat or a folded scarf on their heads, but they are serious iron helmets! Nan Zhong Fu! Our Cao Gang, every year, just by transporting the grain that General Li paid tribute to the Emperor Laozi's inner treasury, there are tens of millions of stones! ”

"Look at the military master who followed us, don't look at the laughter and harmony of others, but on the battlefield, two Tartars were stabbed to death in a row! Moreover, there are hundreds of acres of good paddy fields at home, and the pigs raised are all drinking fish soup! ”

"At present, the swords and soldiers from all over the Ming Dynasty are coming together, and the Tartars outside the gate also come to harass and loot from time to time, you are returning to your hometown, what if you are taken captive by the Tartars again? In my opinion, it is better to be ruthless and follow the general south to make a living! There are fields there, and there are reasons for you, if you have a skill, just wait to get rich and become a master! ”

"Besides, after our Shandong and Zhili places were looted by the Tartars, they were extremely ruined everywhere, and the victims were everywhere, who knows if the Ludao Imperial Court will allocate money and grain for relief? Even if there is money and food, how much can it reach us? ”

"You have also seen the benevolence of the general, and the daily food relief has been distributed in the past few days, to put it mildly, have you ever eaten a whole grain meal when you were at home? Follow the general to the south, not to mention anything else, three full meals a day, and you can still pat your chest with fish and meat. Whether you want to live or starve, you have to think carefully. ”

On the one hand, he was preparing for public opinion among the captives, preaching various benefits of going to Nanzhong, and on the other hand, he helped the health camp and the baggage camp recruit nurses and miscellaneous servants, "Three full meals a day, as long as you can't die, you can eat as many fish and meat as you like!" There are also fifty Nanzhong Tongbao wages! ”……

The snow finally stopped.

Under the escort of his own soldiers, Li Shouhan led Wang Dehua, Wang Chengen, King De and others to climb Maoling Mountain outside Jinan City, looking at the snow-covered land of Qilu.

A few days ago, the land of the Beacon Sword Soldiers was covered in snow, and it seemed extremely peaceful and serene. The sun, which had been resting at home for a few days, cast its light on the snow, refracting a dazzling light that was still slightly red.

In the past few days, Shouhan can finally breathe a sigh of relief, and the baggage that came from the direction of Laizhou and the troops who escorted and fell behind along the way have all arrived in Jinan, so that the troops that have been stretched thin have finally been completely resolved.

Those local officers and soldiers in Shandong were sent to guard the city passes, horse faces, and arrow towers in various parts of the city, while the main force of the Nanzhong Army rested in the camps everywhere.

The cavalry brigade that made Dolgon's decision to withdraw also arrived in a hurry, two cavalry regiments from the direction of Tamna, these people's technical and tactical level was still a piece worse than the previous old cavalry, but it only took a few battlefield practices to mature quickly.

"My lord, a few days ago, someone came to report that more than 2,000 people from the headquarters of the general army Zukuan are coming in the direction of Jinan."

"What is he doing at this time? Where was he when the slave chief Dorgon was besieging the city? Where was he when we fought hard with Jiannu in Changqing? At this time, seeing that the Jiannu army had withdrawn, he hurriedly came to find a bargain? ”

Shouhan, Wang Dehua and others had unprecedentedly unanimous opinions, and they had the same hatred for the enemy.

"The two fathers-in-law, King Chitose, the official listened to the news sent by the little girl in Jiaozhou Bay, the sea has been calm these days, shouldn't we send this book to Beijing to report the victory?"

"Should!"

"In this Jinan battle, the general has worked hard and made great achievements, so he should lay out his military exploits!"

"Then, how to write this book, the four of us will have to discuss it carefully!" (To be continued......)
