"General, as soon as this Qihe County is crossed, and then the Daqing River is crossed, and Jinan Mansion will be in front of you. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

A Han man was a general, and he introduced Yue Xuan, the general of the Qing army, with a flattering face.

Seeing that Yue Zhen listened attentively, the Han people continued: "General, this Jinan City, since the ninth year of Hongwu, has become the provincial capital of Shandong. Provincial government institutions such as the Shandong Provincial Envoy Division, the Metropolitan Command Envoy Division, and the Inspectorate Envoy Department were moved from Qingzhou to Jinan from that year. This Jinan City, the whole city covers an extremely wide area, with a circumference of more than 20 miles, which can be regarded as the largest giant city in Shandong, and the population is also very large, I am afraid that there are nearly 150,000 people. Moreover, Jinan, as the central city of Shandong, is rich in goods and has many shops, and it is also the important place of money and grain treasury in Shandong. In addition, in this Jinan city, there is also the Zhu royal family Dewang family, who has lived in this city for a long time, which is called a rich ......"

A smile appeared on Yue Xuan's face, and his eyes flickered, and he patted the shoulder of the Han man in approval; "Very well, your intelligence is very helpful to us. It's just that you know how the garrison of Jinan City is now? ”

The Han people said anxiously: "General Yu, now in Jinan City, there are only Liu Zeqing's 3,000 headquarters soldiers and horses, stationed in it. Therefore, I think that even if the 20,000 soldiers and horses of Anping Baylor and Rao Yu Baylor are not transferred back, the 40,000 troops of the current Chinese army alone will be enough to take this Jinan City. ”

Yue Zhen laughed loudly, with a look of joy, he thought about it, and asked again: "Then Liu Zeqing, the guard general in the city, does Mr. know anything about this person?" ”

"General Yu, I have been in Shandong for many years, and I know this Shandong general soldier Liu Zeqing very well." The Han general snorted coldly and said: "This person is a general soldier in Shandong, but he is a fierce and inward-looking, mediocre and useless person. He has been guarding Shandong for many years, but he has eaten a lot of empty wages, and his soldiers and horses are limited, and most of them are weak, useless and lifeless. What's more, this person is vicious in his heart and can't tolerate people, so he is also very isolated among the military leaders, and it is difficult to help each other. Therefore, I dare to conclude that as long as our army presses the city with heavy troops, Liu Zeqing will definitely panic to the point of being at a loss, and it is very possible that he will surrender to our army. ”

Yue Zhen laughed and said, "Okay! Then let's cross the Daqing River immediately and approach Jinan City, without giving Liu Zeqing the slightest chance to breathe! ”

Yue Zhi's mind was established, and under an order, 40,000 Qing troops, with an overwhelming momentum, crossed the Daqing River eastward, and the troops quickly approached Jinan.

When the Qing army crossed the Daqing River, Liu Zeqing, the chief soldier of Shandong, was in his own mansion, and four red soldiers. The naked demon woman, on a wide big bed, engaged in an unhappy wheel battle.

Liu Zeqing was born lewd, in his life, lustful as life, in real history, this person even after surrendering to the Manchu Dynasty, he also asked Dolgon for a woman to satisfy his lustful heart, which shows his obscene nature.

As the snapping sound became denser and denser, Liu Zeqing's climax was approaching, the expression on his face was extremely happy, he gasped and closed his eyes, and was about to vent out in the ****** of those prodigal babies, but at this time, the originally locked door was slammed open.

"General Liu, no, the Qing army has crossed the Daqing River and is approaching Jinan!"

The family members who broke into the door shouted loudly with a frightened face.

Seeing this sudden change, the baby under the crotch screamed and hurriedly retreated, and the four women pulled each other's quilts on the bed to block the shame, and they were not embarrassed for a while.

Seeing that he was in the mood, he was disturbed by his subordinates, and Liu Ze was furious.

Damn, won't you knock on the door before you come in, I'm going to be scared of you. Wilted!

However, seeing the panicked expression on the face of this relative, Liu Zeqing still held back the anger in his heart and shouted angrily at the relative: "How can the Qing army come quickly? Have you ever looked closely?! ”

The entourage hurriedly replied: "Lord Liu, our army's sentry has seen clearly, there are about 40,000 Qing troops, and they are coming across the Daqing River with overwhelming momentum, and the soldiers are pointing directly at Jinan City!" The situation in Jinan is already extremely critical, please make a quick decision to Lord Liu! ”

Liu Zeqing's face was solemn, he hurriedly dressed and got out of bed, and said hatefully as he walked: "Damn, this dog-inned Qing army didn't fight in Texas, but it went around hundreds of miles to attack the provincial capital Jinan, but it was ruthless and vicious!" You quickly lead the way, and go to the city of Jinan with your own soldiers to check. ”

"Yes!"

Not long after, Liu Zeqing had finished his drape, and he called the military advisor Li Huajing, as well as his general Zheng Longfang and others, to climb the west gate tower of Jinan City together.

When he saw that from the distant horizon, like a thick black line, like a trick, the Qing army and horses were pouring out endlessly, all the people in the city gasped.

"This, this Qing army is so powerful, how can it resist it......"

Zheng Longfang, the general next to Liu Zeqing, had a pale face, and his mouth was trembling when he spoke.

Li Huajing, the military advisor next to him, was also full of horror, his mouth was half open, but he couldn't say anything.

"Military advisor, the Qing army is so powerful, how can our army stop it?" Liu Zeqing's face was very ugly, and he asked Li Huajing in a loud voice.

Li Huajing's deep voice seemed to emerge from the ground: "General Liu, according to the students, at the moment, our army has only two ways out!" ”

"Oh, which two paths?"

"One way is to immediately abandon this Jinan city and withdraw the whole army east to Qingzhou in order to recover in the future. The other way is to immediately mobilize the young and strong in the city, defend the city to the death, and wait for reinforcements from other places. Li Huajing sighed lightly and said slowly.

Listening to Li Huajing's words, Liu Zeqing frowned deeply.

These two paths are not what Liu Zeqing wants.

Since Chongzhen was transferred from Liaodong to Shandong as the chief soldier in the fourth year, Liu Zeqing has taken Jinan as a base and worked hard for many years.

And even if the young and strong people in the city are mobilized and the city is defended to the death, can only the 3,000 soldiers in the city who are demoralized and neglected to train, as well as the hundreds of militiamen in the city, plus the young and strong people who are temporarily organized, really be able to resist the 40,000 battle-hardened Qing troops outside the city? Liu Zeqing was in his heart, of course, even less hopeful.

So what to do?

Seeing that Liu Zeqing's face was complex and changeable, Li Huajing also had a hint of foreboding in his heart.

At this critical juncture, General Liu refused to evacuate urgently, nor did he quickly organize personnel and soldiers to defend, could it be that he wanted to......

Before Li Huajing could say a word, he suddenly saw several officials under the city wall, hurrying up along the road of the city wall.

"General Liu is the inspector of the imperial history Song Xuezhu, the political envoy Zhang Bingwen, the deputy envoy Zhou Zhixun, the soldier Zheng Qian, and the prefect of Jinan Gou Haoshan have come up." The relatives next to him reminded in a whisper.

Song Xuezhu and others came up to the city wall, Liu Zeqing saluted, and Song Xuezhu was stopped in a hurry, and asked repeatedly: "General soldier Liu, now that the Qing army is attacking, how to defend this Jinan city, and ask General soldier Liu to get an idea quickly!" ”

"Yes, General Soldier Liu, now I am in Jinan City, the soldiers are major generals, the Qing army is so powerful, how to defend this Jinan City, please ask General Liu to make a decision quickly."

"General Liu, if you don't hurry up and do a good job of defending the city, if the Qing army comes to attack, how can I stop Jinan City!"

"General soldier Liu, when you need to go to other places in Shandong as soon as possible and contact the reinforcements, you must ensure that Jinan is not lost."

Zhou Zhixun, Zheng Qian, Gou Haoshan and others kept making suggestions to Liu Zeqing, which made Liu Zeqing's heart more and more irritable.

"Say no more!"

Liu Zeqing's face was angry, and he sharply interrupted the proposal of the senior officials, and then said coldly: "Everyone, how to deploy this Jinan City, this soldier has his own decision. You must know that the Qing army has come from afar, and the siege equipment is not complete, and all of a sudden, it will not be able to conquer Jinan, and the princes don't need to worry too much. ”

Song Xuezhu frowned, and asked again: "How to defend this Jinan city is the sole responsibility of General Soldier Liu, but now that the Qing army has arrived in the city, why doesn't General Soldier Liu even hurry up to do things such as launching young and strong?" What's the end of this? ”

Seeing Song Xuezhu talking about himself in such a questioning tone, Liu Zeqing was also annoyed in his heart, his face changed, and he said sharply: "You civil officials, what are you trembling here?!" This soldier said, how to defend this Jinan City, this soldier has his own decision, why do you need a gang of powerless civil officials to come here to Luo! Stand down quickly. “

Seeing that Liu Zeqing didn't agree with each other, he put on a fierce and ruthless appearance of a ruffian, patrolling the imperial history Song Xuezhu, and trembling with anger.

It's just that when he saw Liu Zeqing's hideous and fierce appearance, and the soldiers next to him had bad intentions, he didn't dare to go against this person anymore, so he had to lead those officials and retreat from the city wall with hatred.

When Liu Zeqing and others were still hesitating about whether to defend or retreat, the Qing army that crossed the Daqing River was like a turbulent iron current, they shouted loudly, and quickly enveloped the entire Jinan City, surrounding the entire Jinan City.

The defenders at the head of Jinan City, seeing that the Qing army was so powerful, many people were so frightened that their faces changed greatly, and there were many more soldiers, and even their legs were trembling slightly.

Seeing that the Qing army was coming so fiercely and quickly, Liu Zeqing and the others were also very frightened.

Immediately, he thought in frustration that the Qing army was moving so quickly, and in a short period of time, it surrounded the entire city of Jinan, and it was impossible for him to withdraw from Jinan now.

Moreover, even if I had to send an envoy to another place to fetch the rescuers, I would not be able to do it.

What to do?!

Liu Zeqing's heart was in a mess, but he was still forcibly calming down on the surface.

At this moment, from the Qing army in the distance, several cavalry rushed quickly, surrounded by a Han man who looked like a general, and came to the place outside the west gate of Jinan City.

"Mr. Liu, it seems that the Qing army sent a lobbyist." Li Huajing reminded in a low voice.

"Lord Liu, why don't I immediately order the archers to release their arrows and shoot them away?" Zheng Longfang, a staff member on the side, shouted at Liu Zeqing.

Liu Zeqing's face was gloomy, but he shook his head slowly: "Wait, listen to what they have to say first." “

Soon, in the cavalry squad of the Qing army on the opposite side, the Han man was in charge, with a smile on his face, and he took a few steps forward, and shouted to the city: "Everyone, I am the envoy of the Qing army." But there is an urgent word, to tell General Liu in the city bluntly, and quickly ask General Liu to go to the city to answer. ”

Hearing this Han man shouting like this, Liu Zeqing frowned, and replied: "This soldier is Liu Zeqing, what do you have to say, but just say it." ”

The Han general had a slight smile on his face, and said loudly: "General Liu, with all due respect, this Jinan City is being surrounded by our Qing Dynasty officials and troops, and it is already like an iron bucket, and your army has no possibility of escaping." And my Qing army is extremely strong, with a large number of troops, and you are in the city of Jinan, with few soldiers and low morale, how can you be my opponent of the Qing Dynasty? If you insist on forcibly confronting me with the Qing Dynasty, after this city is broken, I am afraid that the city will be full of living beings, and it will be difficult to survive! And Mr. Liu, the mansion and concubine you worked so hard to manage, the power and wealth, will all be reduced to nothing. Wouldn't it be deplorable to come to such a point! There is a saying that those who know the times are handsome, and Liu Zongbing is a hero among people, how can he not see the situation so clearly? Therefore, I would like to advise General Liu that it is better to recognize the situation as soon as possible and surrender as soon as possible, which is the best result. And I am generous to the surrender of the Qing Dynasty, and after General Liu's surrender, he will not lose his high position. In the following words, all out of the heart, please Liu Zongbing think twice! ”

Although the Han people's words were slow, the words were like steel needles, which pierced Liu Zeqing's heart and bleed.

It is not an exaggeration to say that these words are heart-wrenching.

At this time, next to Liu Zeqing, the military advisor Li Huajing and the general Zheng Longfang and others also had complicated faces and were silent.

"How about it, has Mr. Liu thought about it? This life and death are only in a thought, such an opportunity is not missed, but it is good to grasp it. Seeing that Liu Zeqing was silent, the Han people hurriedly struck while the iron was hot.

The Han people asked three times in a row, but Liu Zeqing was silent, but the expression on his face was very strange and complicated.

Seeing him like this, a sneer crossed the face of the Han people.

He didn't say much, but whispered to a cavalryman beside him, who nodded, took out a light arrow tied with a white cloth, looked at the city, and shot it with a whoosh.

After this arrow was shot, the Han general smiled slightly, then pulled out the horse's head, cheered, and led the Qing army team to gallop back to the Qing army's main formation.

Liu Zeqing and the others, when they saw the flying arrow whistling and shooting, were startled, and subconsciously avoided it, but the arrow swept over the pheasant moat and shot on the female wall behind, and fell on the city wall with a soft sound.

"Mr. Liu, there is a letter from the Qing army on it!"

Zheng Longfang picked up the arrow, tore off the white cloth attached to it, and handed it to Liu Zeqing.

Liu Zeqing opened the white cloth and saw a sentence written on it.

"General soldier Liu, our army will give you a little more time, if this evening, our army has not received a reply from your army's decision to surrender, after dawn tomorrow, our army will immediately start attacking the city, when the boundary is reached, General Liu should not regret it!"

After reading this letter, Liu Zeqing's face flashed with anger, he slammed this small piece of white cloth on the ground, and angrily stepped on it several times with his foot.

Li Huajing, Zheng Longfang and others next to him also had extremely ugly faces.

The Qing army's ultimatum made all Liu Zeqing understand that there was not much time left for them.

Whether to surrender to the Qing army to preserve power and wealth, or to send his life to the Ming Dynasty to gain a reputation for loyalty, Liu Zeqing, the defender of Jinan, must make a quick decision.
