This voice, like the sharp teeth of a wild wolf, tore at Li Shouhan's flesh and blood. The sentences were like a big stick, hitting him straight in front of his eyes.

Oh, yes! I, Li Shouhan, our Li family, and our entire army in the Southern Guangdong Army, all want to be Guo Ziyi, the general of the Jiangshan Mansion of the Tang Dynasty, and the Duke of Zhou, who is the king of the Tang Dynasty, but some people want to think that you are the Cao Cao of the present world, and Li Yuan who is alive!

"I would have turned my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch! I was originally going to be the minister of Zhongxing in the Ming court, just like countless people yearn for, to change the fate of the last Han dynasty, but why treat me like this? ”

Li Shouhan's chest and abdomen were filled with disgust, as if something was about to be spit out, but the feeling of wanting to vomit but not being able to vomit was too uncomfortable. Perhaps, that's what the so-called bones are in the throat?

"I want to be Guo Ziyi, but they think I have Zhao Kuangyin's ambitions. I wanted to learn from Zhou Gong, but they firmly believed that I was Li Yuan and Wang Mang. Is there a place in the world where good people walk? Li Shouhan secretly laughed at himself in his heart.

"Perhaps, it's because I've been too bent to meet these people over the years. I'm used to them coming out! Suddenly, Li Shouhan's heart was awe-struck, and a thought came to his heart. This thought, which had been hidden in his heart for a long time, finally burst out from the deepest part of his heart today.

"At that time, the chairman said that if unity is sought through struggle, unity will survive. If we seek unity through compromise and concession, we will die in unity. Haven't I been currying favor all these years, what is compromise and concession? ! Li Shouhan thought of this, and suddenly felt that all questions seemed to have found answers.

"Which of these dog things doesn't remember to eat or not? After the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, they always used big swords and sharp axes, literary prisons, raiding homes, distributing Ningguta and armored people to slave them to clean them up. The result? Which of these goods is not honestly waiting for others to raid their homes, waiting for others to send their wives and daughters to warm the bedding of those stinky and coaxing people in armor? They dare to fart Kangxi Yongzheng Qianlong?! Isn't it the same to sing praises to virtue, the Holy Lord and the Holy Ming, born in a prosperous era to write poems and essays to praise?! Thinking of the ugly performance of the Jiangnan literati in history, and even the entire literati group, Li Shouhan was relieved.

"Perhaps, I should have spoken to them with a broadsword and a firecracker, and reasoned with them." He sighed secretly, and couldn't help but think of the "Pai Gun Yu Shi Cha Bai Di" on the ground in the south of the Yangtze River, where the "prestige" can stop children from crying at night. When this lord collects the money and grain accumulated over the years, he will never talk to those gentry and grain households about the national economy, people's livelihood, military needs, and people's food. All he has to do is put the amount of money and grain you owe on the door of your house, and then tell you when I will collect it. If you dare to tear off the official notice affixed to the door, then well, the soldiers guarding the door will immediately go back to report the news. Then a large team of people will arrive and arrest all of you, young and old. Let you listen to the crying and wailing of the whole family in the class room, and bow your head to him and beg for mercy.

This point is also deeply experienced by Napoleon, the cannon emperor who almost became the European version of Qin Shi Huang in Europe. But when faced with the riots of the Royalists in Paris, he was very kind enough to use cannons in the streets to reason with them and persuade them to return to their homes.

He thought of something and asked, "What about Xianggong and the others?" They contributed to our Nanyue Army and implemented new policies in various parts of the Yangtze River, and they have long been hated by people, so it is better not to be affected by us. ”

"Lord, don't worry about this." Li Peiting saw that Li Shouhan was speechless for a long time, and suddenly asked about Cha Baidi's house, but he was a little confused for a while. "Cha is also a good character. Duoduo crossed the river, Nanjing was sacrificed by traitors, and there were people in Suzhou who were ready to move, ready to echo it. Cha designed to lure this generation out, in the name of setting up a banquet to discuss the plan, at the banquet ambush suddenly killed, with hundreds of guns volleyed, killing all the gentry in Suzhou who were ready to surrender to the Qing army, hanging their heads at the city gates. Subsequently, he sent troops to confiscate all their family property, slaves, wives and concubines. At this time, he was detained in various temples, Taoist temples and other places in Shanghai County. Please show me what to do with these people? ”

Seeing that Li Peiting asked here, Zhang Xiaohu, the commander of the left wing fleet of the Navy Division, who had just arrived at the door, subconsciously touched the medicine box on his waist, he knew that in the past, when there was such a thing, what was waiting for these people was often death.

"Why do you have to kill it? Heaven has the virtue of a good life. So be it! Take out a charter from your office, and see where there is a shortage of labor in the various projects, and let these people go to work and atone for their sins! Remember, their rations and food and clothing are to be obtained from their own labor. If you don't work, you have no food to eat and no clothes to wear. ”

Zhang Xiaohu, who was outside the door, couldn't help but stick out his tongue, and his lord finally showed his fangs again. Let the family members of these big families, who are accustomed to being pampered on weekdays, go to the construction site of the Nanyue Army to build roads, bridges, dredging rivers, and building port wharves to work, which is called atonement in the name of atonement, but it is to rely on their own hands to obtain food and clothing, isn't it more painful and painful than killing them?

Good boy! In this way, I'm afraid that it won't be until after the autumn, and it would be good if half of these people survived!

As a general at the level of admiral, Zhang Xiaohu presided over the construction of ports, the construction of dock forts, and the dredging of rivers not once or twice. There is a saying among the supervisors on the construction site, "If you dig and haul the earthwork for a day, you can climb the plank by yourself, and you can stand and pee, you can say that you are a man." ”

"Is Mr. Zha also in Shanghai County?"

"Exactly. Although a group of people were killed in the city of Suzhou, the momentum of the traitors was temporarily suppressed, but now the Qing army began to pursue the area around Suzhou and Hangzhou, and the city was unstable. ”

"Well, that's fine! It would be good to leave a Suzhou city with hundreds of thousands of mouths to eat for Duoduo! Li Shouhan didn't believe that Duoduo had the ability of Chen Yi and Boss Chen, and he was able to cut off the source of food and empty the treasury by himself (what I am talking about here is to transport food and other materials, anyway, they are all the Nanyue Army's own.) However, gold, silver, fine and soft satin, these luxury hard currencies remained. Feed his army of hundreds of thousands and feed the millions of people in Jiangnan.

"Who's out there?" Li Shouhan had already vaguely seen Zhang Xiaohu's figure from between the window lattices. I saw the head that was already bald and didn't have much hair left, glowing lovely in the sun.

"My lord! It's the mark that Zhang Xiaohu is back! Hearing Li Shouhan's somewhat ridiculous question, Zhang Xiaohu was overjoyed, knowing that his body and mood were fine at this time, so he hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down at the threshold to salute.

"Alright, alright! Little Liuzi, you are so old, you have so many injuries on your body, and your legs and feet are not good. Moreover, speaking of which, you are still Erya's master, and we will be exempted from this set of customs in the future! Li Shouhan waved his hand, signaling that Zhang Xiaohu didn't have to kneel down.

"How can this be!" Zhang Xiaohu still knelt down and kowtowed in a proper manner, and then stood up with Li Huamei's support.

Zhang Xiaohu was ordered by Li Shouhan to go to Dengzhou, Jiaozhou and other places on the Jiaodong Peninsula to transport food, salary, soldiers, clothing, gunpowder, weapons and other supplies to Lu Mahong, and by the way, he used the soldiers and artillery of the fleet itself to help the young grandmother clean up the polders that had surrendered to the Qing army and were ordered by the Qing army on the coast.

With the arrival of the ship in Jiaozhou Bay, the situation in the Denglai area changed instantly. Not only was the morale of the headquarters of the Nanyue Army greatly boosted by Lu Mahong, Fan Xiaozeng, and Liao Dongzhi, but also the strength of the Nanyue Army after being replenished, but also the righteous army like Xie Qian, who accepted the appointment of the Nanyue Army and received supplies under the banner of the Nanyue Army, also changed their appearance greatly.

Because, Li Shouhan ordered Zhang Xiaohu to bring something with the ship and hand it to Lu Mahong.

The official letter of the Ming court is a letter of appointment in the words we are familiar with. It's not just a batch of blank confessions handed over to Lu Mahong, so that she can fill them out at will, and appoint officials below the civil and Taoist level and the military attache and staff general at will. What surprised Lu Mahong even more was that Li Shouhan ordered Zhang Xiaohu to transport a batch of engravings and pigments for the printing officials' confessions. lest the letter of appointment issued by Lumahong be too much, and the inventory on hand will be used up.

"If you create a county seat, you are the county order! Take a prefecture city, you are the prefect! ”

"Lay down Jinan Mansion, Shandong is my master!"

"Open Qingjiangpu, I'm in charge of the two Huai!"

As letters of appointment were issued to the leaders of various rebels and armed groups, and similar propaganda slogans, folk songs spread rapidly from Shandong to Jianghuai like a northwest wind sweeping across the land. The leaders of those armed gangs who only knew their fame and wealth had also made up their dreams of becoming officials, and then glorifying their ancestors and sealing their wives and sons.

"It's okay! If they want officials, they will give them officials, and if they want money, they will give them money. But they had to let me know they were worth the price! In Dengzhou, Zhang Xiaohu relayed Li Shouhan's words to Lu Mahong. As long as these heroes of the three mountains and five mountains wave their swords and guns at the Qing army, what is the official position? What is money? With them blocking the Qing army in front and restraining the Qing army's total strength, Lu Ma Hong can gain valuable space and time to breathe and rest.

"Lord, this method of yours is very good!"

Zhang Xiaohu sincerely stretched out two thumbs and admired Li Shouhan. "After this news was released, countless reckless heroes jumped out to attack the city for us and intercept and kill the Qing army."

Among them, there are also many people who originally occupied a city and a place of local power, because the Qing army and the Nanyue army repeatedly fought back and forth between Shandong and Jianghuai, and in the process of tug-of-war, you can't take care of some cities with less important geographical locations for the time being, so these grass-headed heavens have room to survive. Of course, since you can get ahead in the troubled times, naturally your brain is not given in vain, so you have to be cunning and bet long. Seeing that Mrs. Li, who was guarding the ground in the east of Jiaodong, issued such a reward in accordance with the decree of the grandfather of the country, these people were naturally very happy. "This is tantamount to admitting the legitimacy of our territory, and then giving us a suitable official status!" As a result, these powerful people have said that the county and state they occupy now are the fruits of their victory from the bloody battle of the Qing army. The imperial court, well, that is, the Nanyue Army represented by Lu Mahong, was asked to be recognized, and to supplement and pay the army.

Luma Hong also did not hesitate to reward. The official position documents, a large amount of military salary, and a small amount of equipment, weapons, gunpowder and other materials were issued to the powerful with great fanfare.

For a time, from Shandong in the north to Jianghuai in the south, the huge anti-Qing forces made people's hearts flutter. To put it bluntly, this is actually just a refurbished version of Li Huabao's use of the confessional document in Shandong to call on all kinds of armed forces to come out together to deal with Abatai. However, the more traditional the trick, the more effective it is often the best.

"When I set off from Dengzhou, I heard that Xie Qian, oh, this person has been appointed as the chief soldier of Shandong Zuozhen and the Caozhou and other places of soldiers, horses, money and food." mentioned Xie Qian's strange envoy, who was both civil and military, made Zhang Xiaohu a little unbearable.

"What's wrong with Xie Qian?"

"Xie Qian has lured the accomplices of the Qing army on the ground in Linqing, the Zeng brothers of the Liulin Regiment, together with the nearly 50,000 core bandits under them, to the vicinity of the high-rise village. After the first battle, thousands of beheaded, and hundreds of bandit leaders led by the Zeng brothers were captured. The rest of the tens of thousands were captured. When I set off, Xie Qian wrote a battle report to my grandmother to repay my merits. Following the battle report came more than 100 heads of the Zeng brothers and others. Grandma Da Shao ordered me to bring Xie Qian's merit documents, and at the same time, there was also a disposal plan for Xie Qian's request made by Da Shao Grandma. ”

"Well, tell me, Xie Qian, Chief Soldier Xie, Lord Xie, what does he want?"

Xie Qian's requirements, in the environment of this era, can be regarded as commonplace, and even compared with the popular practices in the Ming army, Xie Qian can be regarded as very regular. He demanded that tens of thousands of the core members of the captured Liulin Regiment be incorporated into his troops. At the same time, Lu Mahong was asked to provide him with at least three months' military salaries, food, and various weapons supplies according to the new establishment strength. In exchange, Xie Qian will lead this force to destroy the remnants of the Liulin Regiment, which has broken bones, and regain the area controlled by the Liulin Regiment.

Compared with those generals of the Ming army who were only in charge of all kinds of pulling strong people to gather their heads, Xie Qian's way of expanding the army can be regarded as a product of conscience.

"That's right. Three months' food, grass, and military salaries, as well as some weapons supplies, your office will give the old family's daughter-in-law a business job, and let her take care of it herself. In addition, she is alone behind the enemy, and she can't lack food and grass to supply weapons and soldiers! ”

"My subordinates understand." Li Peiting nodded in agreement.

"It is clearly written in the reply to the old family that these tens of thousands of people can be recruited by Xie Qian, but the soldiers and horses must be organized according to the establishment of our Nanyue Army and implement the system of our Nanyue Army. Xie Qian was there, and asked the old family to send someone to act as a coach. Teach them our tactics. Xie Qian's artillery team there also had to send people over to instruct them on artillery tactics. ”

Li Peiting, Zhang Xiaohu, Li Huamei, and others all knew that this was a means for Li Shouhan to control all kinds of motley armed forces that were attached to the Nanyue Army after suffering losses in the past, and to infiltrate them first for future integration and transformation. Take them one by one right now.

"What else is going on in the north?"

"It's a good thing too. But it's not as big as Xie Qian. "Zhang Xiaohu sold a pass." It turned out that Wang Fuchen, the horse harrier of the Dragon and Tiger Battalion, had recently defected to the command of the young grandmother. The eldest young grandmother ordered him to be the commander of the horse battalion, and handed over the 2,000 horse team to him. As a result, this thief really has a set! insisted on using these two thousand horses, and led Wu Fengxian and Zhang Linghu, the two anti-bone boys, five thousand cavalry, to run thousands of miles from north to south on the ground in Shandong. In the end, while these two groups of people were all sleepy, they ate these people from the front to the middle army one by one, and even the guards and baggage were not spared, and they were all eaten! Now, under the command of the eldest young grandmother, there are also four or five thousand elite cavalry! ”

Wang Fuchen used the tactics learned and mastered in the peasant army to defeat the enemy, and dragged the original elite division into a tired division, and then, using the long distance of the long-distance march to the cavalry team of Zhang and Wu, first hit the forward, and then rushed to the baggage and rear guard team to turn the large amount of baggage grain and grass into his own supplies, and then slowly ate the Chinese army team that was flustered because the back road was cut off and the supply of grain and grass was poor.

"What kind of envoy is this horse harrier king and assistant minister now?"

"My lord, my grandmother asked him to serve as the commander of the horse battalion of the Denglai troops on the northern front with the rank of deputy general."

"It's small! Since this person can fight, let him give Lao Tzu a dignified and solid beating! You draw up a charter right away. The horse battalion of the Denglai unit was immediately reorganized into a cavalry brigade. All kinds of equipment and equipment are according to our horse team in the past! This horse harrier, let him be the commander of this cavalry brigade for Lao Tzu as an adjutant general! By the way, let the old man tell him that he will fight a good war for Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu will think of him for good things! ”

Everyone present could see that Li Shouhan was in a good mood because of the news of the two victories in the Shandong battlefield in the north. Although the elimination was all local armed and miscellaneous troops in the Qing army system, at least it sent a signal to Dolgon in Beijing. Shandong is not the world of your Qing army!

At least, after these two victories, the Qing army will send troops back to Shandong to help, then, at this time, the Duoduo Division, which is in full swing, will be the first choice. As long as some of Duoduo's soldiers and horses are withdrawn, then it will be great news for the Nanyue army that is gathering in the area of Songjiang Mansion and Hangzhou Mansion to breathe at this time!
