On the land covered with sparse snowflakes, villages, people, black smoke rushing into the sky, women's cries, soldiers' laughter, men's wails, scattered belongings, and whistling cavalry, from time to time splashed with blood and muddy water.

But don't get me wrong, this is not a common picture of the Anti-Japanese War drama, and the pig's feet in the picture will not be the Imperial Japanese Army, nor is it the so-called Dongnu and thief weapons in this era, but Er Liu's men and horses are robbing.

After the two Liu generals robbed Abatai's baggage, they could be said to have tasted the sweetness greatly, so they scattered all the men and horses under their command to fight against Jiannu. As for the subordinates who were fighting Jiannu, they carried out some entertainment activities and burned a few villages, which naturally would not be taken to heart by the two Liu generals.

So, while intercepting and killing Jiannu to go north, those villages and towns along the way were once again unlucky, and many people were just glad to have escaped Jiannu's butcher's knife, but they were accidentally washed away by the officials and soldiers with their belongings.

Although people living today often scold the army of this dynasty, they want to break their heads, and they cannot imagine how corrupt the army was before the appearance of the army that was cursed countless times by countless conscientious intellectuals. Rape and looting are nothing more than pediatrics, and the largest massacres in history were all perpetrated by the military. It's just that some are called teachers of righteousness, and some are called thieves.

The only difference between a teacher of righteousness and a thief may be that a teacher of benevolence and righteousness will make up a song of love for the people and sing it to the common people before robbing and killing people. And then kill again. This great army of benevolence and righteousness killed the rich land in the south of the Yangtze River, but he claimed to love the people like a son. Even their leader passed on his family letter to future generations, so that everyone could praise him for his kindness. It's a pity that the damned materialist historians have verified his scandals so clearly that his filial sons and grandsons are discouraged, and they can only publish his boasted works as ordinary novels.

His diary and that of one of his disciples are regarded by many as a guideline. But the diary of that disciple is not as lucky as his ancestor, and it may have been born at the wrong time. A large number of historical records can be casually verified, and they are ridiculed as a diary powerhouse.

Eventually, of course, an army will wipe them out completely. Let the army no longer be accustomed to looting. Let the people not be full of fear of the army, and even turn it around, and when this army is engaged in disaster relief and other activities, they are also blamed by these conscientious intellectuals, and they will post Weibo and circle of friends to criticize it. For example, fighting with the victims for drinking water and instant noodles and other things. Let's be honest. We have been spoiled by this army. If you are a little unsatisfactory, you will scold them, and for such people, the unkind author will go to the lighthouse country to find the US military to have a discussion.

in our time and space. This was done by another Hunanese. In this book, the Nanyue Army has barely achieved it, but unfortunately, Erliu's army is not the Nanyue Army.

The old and weak cut their heads in two, the strong ones let their carts carry their burdens, the reckless ones simply picked up the broken bows and knives discarded on the ground and joined the ranks of the officials and troops to plunder, and the women had an even more tragic fate waiting for them. Originally, when the officials and soldiers killed the good people, they had to shave the hair of the good people who were killed and change the hairstyle, but now they are completely useless, and these Ding Zhuang people were forcibly shaved and braided by Abatai when they were captured, which can be regarded as saving a lot of things for the officials and soldiers, otherwise, the newly shaved hair and the shaved hair for a long time are completely different.

"Cut down those who can't walk, who can't work! Don't chop anything else! "Finally, the officers still have a string in their heads, and these Ding Zhuang people can also be exchanged for supplies, and they can't be killed casually.

Just when the two official armies were happily killing the people who had been captured and plundered by Jiannu on the wasteland, far away from the direction of the horizon, the most heroic cavalry of more than 100 cavalry who had originally rushed to kill also rushed back.

The soldiers of the two armies, scattered within a radius of dozens of miles, immediately fell silent. From the demeanor of the family members who came rushing wildly, and the incessant shouting in their mouths, everyone got a message: "The Tartar soldiers are here!" ”

As the more than 100 cavalry got closer and closer, the officers and soldiers everywhere gradually stopped and kept looking at their respective commanders.

Batches of Ming troops rushed back at night, and in all directions, large groups of Qing cavalry were found.

The earth trembled faintly, and finally it shook violently, and it seemed that at the same time, at the end of the horizon on all sides, there were flags like firewood trees. Countless knights of the Qing army galloped wildly, the black pressure was boundless, they let their horses run wildly, and the sound of iron hooves shook everyone's hearts faintly.

Behind the thousands of cavalry and horses, there were more infantry, galloping for dozens of miles, and the hot breath exhaled by the people in the queue and the sky-high killing intent rolled up by the swords and guns in their hands had already pierced the clouds overhead.

In the blink of an eye, Abatai's Weaving Golden Dragon Silk was surrounded by hundreds of Bayala soldiers and rushed to the edge of the battlefield in the entertainment city that had just been an official and military member. The tide of action on both sides immediately reversed.

The hunter just now became the prey in the blink of an eye. The officers and troops of the second Liu Suo, attracted by the wealth and population, were scattered in a vast area within a radius of dozens of miles, and they collapsed at the first touch!

The army was defeated, and the news that more than 10,000 men and horses were all defeated and captured by Abatai was brought into Qinghe County by the officers and soldiers who escaped by chance. The two Liu general soldiers, who were still in the city to inspect the more than 1,000 sets of armor and weapons that Lei Dafu had just transported, did not panic, and in the face of the vigorous Abatai, they immediately launched the national army's 10,000-mile transfer to Dafa, threw away the mountains of grain and rice in the city, and fled all the way to the west with the remnants of more than 1,000 family soldiers.

However, the speed of these two is far inferior to the invincible General Fei who gave birth to a good son, not only is the thousand-mile mobile march speed of the troops far inferior, and they have almost been caught up by Abatai's forwards several times, but they are also mindful and only know how to run forward, and they don't know that there are also technical means such as disguise and disguise, as for General Sun's in-depth entertainment venues, using stumbling women as cover to get out, these two General Liu, who only knows how to fight horses and gallop, naturally don't know.

Of course, although the truth is so clear. The result is so obvious, which does not prevent them from covering up for themselves with clever words.

After a few breaths. The two generals Liu immediately sent a note to the imperial court, claiming that they had been frantically besieged by Jiannu, who was dozens of times their size, "Jiannu drove the captive women everywhere to move forward naked, and let our army set off firearms to kill, just move forward slowly." The officers and men of our army all think that they are the same as His Majesty, so how can they bear to kill and hurt? I wanted to tear and turn in, and I tried to do something else. However, the thieves and slaves chased after tens of thousands of elite horsemen, and our army suffered heavy losses, but the vitality still existed. Fu begging Majesty xià quickly allocated food and salary equipment. For the sake of regrouping. ”

Qinghe City. On the square outside the county yamen. The last Great Bright Sun and Moon Banner was thrown into the fire and burned.

Dozens of Erliu's subordinates who were captured and surrendered were guerrilla garrisons, each holding a helmet in his hand, and he didn't dare to say a mouthful. Just honestly knelt on the ground and listened to the conversation between Abatai and Wang Ke in the hall.

Wang Ke's strategy allowed Abatai to win more with less. At the cost of the loss of hundreds of soldiers and horses. The two Ming army commanders were almost disintegrated and frozen. Nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses were captured.

"Mr. Wang is really scheming! We just spent some money and defeated Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo, and got 10,000 soldiers and horses from him. and numerous baggage weapons. Abatai proudly returned the thick ledger to the pen post, which contained the losses and gains of this exchange, and the casualties in and out of the accounts.

"You said that these two Liu generals spent so much effort and a lot of money and food, but they only kept our wealth and people for us for a few days, but they paid us all the money. You say, did they earn or lose? ”

In the lobby, more than a dozen Jia Lazhangjing also grinned. The more than 1,000 sets of armor that Liu Liangzuo and Liu Zeqing had just received had now become Abatai's trophies.

"The minion's plan is still not thorough enough. The master lost a lot of people and property. Wang Kerao was proud in his heart, but his mouth was full of guilt.

The loss of people and property he mentioned was the tens of thousands of people and a large amount of gold and silver goods that were transported away overnight by Lei Dafu and others, including those antiques, calligraphy, paintings, books, and other items whose value was difficult to estimate for a while.

When Abatai's forward rushed into Qinghe County, Lei Dafu's rear team had just left the north gate and headed in the direction of Texas.

According to the meaning of Wang Ke and others, it is necessary to chase and kill the troops and recapture these people and goods.

However, such a move was stopped by Abatai.

"Whoever dares to chase and kill the caravan will be killed!"

Abatai's heart was also dripping blood. He was not such a generous person, but he saw the banner flying high in the caravan, and the banner was clearly the banner of Long! And in the team of the guards, it is clearly the spirit of the authentic Southern Barbarian Army. If this group of minions rushes over, they will suffer a big loss!

Moreover, in order to marry Li Peiting, Huang Taiji once promised that no matter inside and outside, as long as he saw the banner of Long, the soldiers of the Eight Banners would not be offended. If he accidentally offended Li Peiting, the dog thief, for some wealth today, he would sue himself in front of Dolgon and Huang Taiji, just afraid that a pair of embroidered shoes would be thrown in front of him.

The barbarian woman can't run when she puts on embroidered shoes, how can he, a Manchurian man, enjoy it?

"Forget it! It was as if Ben Belle had spent a lot of money to buy these swords, guns, and canes from them! Abatai waved his hand magnanimously, signaling that the king did not need to say anything more.

"We have tens of thousands of horses in hand, swords, guns, armor and canes are excellent, all the states and counties in the Ming Kingdom, where can we go? When you get there, isn't there for your children to take it? Why should we stick to the gains and losses of one city and one place?! ”

More than a dozen Jialazhangjing could hear Abatai's words, and they couldn't help but let out a smug smile.

"As for the demotion of others, Benbel also treats them equally. If you are willing to surrender to my Qing Dynasty, Ben Belle will ensure that your original soldiers and horses will not move, and all the regulations will be implemented according to my Qing Dynasty soldiers and horses. If you don't want to surrender,"

In fact, these words of Abatai are all official articles, these people have now been frightened, and they are in a cage, how dare they say that they are not willing to surrender? Besides, Abatai has already given benefits, and all the original soldiers and horses have not moved, and they all follow the rules of the Eight Banners, so why not do it under such conditions?!

A group of military sticks with milk are mothers, and without waiting for Abatai to finish speaking, they shouted in unison: "We are willing to follow our master and conquer the Ming Kingdom for the Qing Dynasty!" ”

At present, according to the military system of the Eight Banners, the soldiers and horses of these people are organized into Niu Lu and Jia La. Shave your hair separately. They did not even change their flags, but tied a white cloth band around their helmets and armor on their left shoulders. Just like the national army turned into a peaceful army, but a yellow triangular strip of cloth was added to the blue sky and white sun flag.

When the preparation was completed, Abatai ordered the men to take out the goods obtained from the plunder, and the soldiers were rewarded with ten pieces of silver each, regardless of whether they were cavalry, infantry, or householders. Officers at all levels ranged from fifty to one hundred. The one who received a bull and a soldier and horse was a rain of silver dollars for a thousand or three thousand yuan.

For a while, the surrender of troops was thunderous, and their morale was greatly boosted, and they all felt that they had received such a reward without making a contribution to the new master, and it seemed that it was better to follow the new master to mix with the rich.

After a little rest. Abatai led a mixed army of old and new vassals. Drove in the direction of Linqing again, and after crossing the canal with Jin Ge Iron Horse, he swooped towards Jinan.

According to the intention of the new and old minions under his command, Rao Yu Baylor's department should go north to Gyeonggi. After a lot of looting. Then go back to Shenyang from the direction of Jizhen. Or plagiarize the rear of Jiliao Inspector and make new contributions to my Qing Dynasty. But this sounds quite reasonable, but it is mixed with the selfish and distracting rhetoric of many generals of various ministries. It was dismissed by Abatai and Wang Ke.

"Do you want to run north, so that Ning Yuanbo's elite and the miscellaneous people of the Beijing camp will chase after our ass? Let's return to Liaodong, then Ning Yuanbo's army can be used in the Liaodong battlefield! The emperor's will to Ben Baylor was to drag Li Shouhan to death in Shandong Zhili and other places, but Ben Baylor just didn't follow his Li Shouhan's wishful thinking! ”

From thousands of people at the time of entering the customs to tens of thousands now, Abatai is very confident that he will complete the task given to him by Huang Taiji. From his heart, this raid is undoubtedly the best and last opportunity for him to expand his strength.

Like the most cruel and ruthless coachman, he drove these tens of thousands of horses across the canal, the Maji River, the Tuxiao River and other rivers, and cut straight to Jinan, the capital of Shandong Province, where the Han was stationed at this time.

"Break into Jinan Mansion and capture Li Shouhan alive!"

A few newly surrendered oxen shouted loudly in the marching procession, emboldening their subordinates and themselves.

"Good! This minion is good! Just shout! Let the minions of the Niulu pass on this slogan and let the whole army know it! Ben Baylor is going to take Jinan Mansion again, and invite Ning Yuanbo to Shenyang to have a hunt with the emperor! ”

The news was quickly spread to Jinan City, and also to the ears of Liao Dongzhi and others, who were still marching in the direction of Linqing at this time.

Liao Dongzhi's army is still at the foot of Mount Tai, and the military emergency reports everywhere have flown over like snowflakes.

"The vanguard of the Tartar army has arrived in Yucheng!"

"The Tartar army has arrived in Yucheng!"

"The advance of the Tartar army has approached Qi River!"

In the city of Jinan, three shocks a day, Chen Tianhua and others kept sending troops around, transferring the strong men from Rizhao and other places to the vicinity of Jinan, and at the same time ordering people to register the strong men in Jinan City and prepare to defend the city; At the same time, Zhang Xiaohu secretly ordered several gunboats to be moored on the Yellow River, ready to receive the lord's evacuation from Jinan at any time. It's Shouhan himself, with a slow and light fur, today Daming Lake, tomorrow Qianfoshan. Occasionally, a few limerick poems come out, and the pot is often boiled in Baotu Spring, but the steamed buns cannot be steamed. It made the scholars in the city laugh at it.

"How many days will it take us to get to Jinan City?"

His eyes were almost on fire, Liao Dongzhi repeatedly measured the distance on the map, trying to find a path suitable for the army to drive quickly, and in his heart, he couldn't wait to fly to Jinan with his wings.

"My lord, we are now walking at most forty or fifty miles a day, and there are still hundreds of miles from Tai'an Shenzhou to Jinan Mansion, and it will take at least ten days for the whole army to arrive. If the general selects elite light cavalry to go, I am afraid that it will not be of much use, but it is easy to lose the prestige of the general! ”

The guide sent by the local officials in Shandong carefully considered the words and carefully persuaded Liao Dongzhi, lest he accidentally find himself killed.

"That's it! Brother Liao, if you pounce on Jinan regardless of a qiē, our sons and daughters of the 3,000 battalions will definitely follow the eldest brother, and only the horse will be the first. However, there is a cloud in the art of war, and if you travel 300 miles a day, you will step on the general. The brigade marched and was in no hurry. If you reluctantly rush to Jinan, you can't help your uncle, which is counterproductive. ”

Luo Zuming and Tan Chery, the two generals of the Beijing camp, were also kind words to persuade each other.

"Lose that horse!"

Liao Dongzhi felt that since the battle of Tengxian, he accidentally left Wang Ke, and everything was not going well. Now when I walk everywhere, I am like a deaf and blind person, the military situation and enemy situation and geography are not clear, and if you want to find a guide, you must enter the city.

Now in various parts of Luzhong, the remnants of the remnants of the bandits have revived, and the officials have complained one after another about the states and counties where the army has passed, claiming that the believers everywhere have begun to move again, lest the army has just left, and this generation will make waves again.

However, compared with the Tartar Forward Ranger who had already appeared in Qihe County, Liao Dongzhi was more worried about the safety of the lord in Jinan City. As long as the Lord is safe and sound, what if the whole of Shandong becomes a sea of fire?

"From tomorrow onwards, the whole army will march to Jinan from the brigade commander to Jinan at the same time. Those who dare to snub and fall behind will be dealt with by military law! ”

Things have come to this point, and Liao Dongzhi can't care about his feelings. (To be continued......)
