The next morning, the sun shone into the city, and there was already a sea of cheers in it, and the refugees cheered, and the Guan Ning army, who reaped the heads of the Tartars with joy, and with a kind of joy, as if they could not believe the results of the battle before them, they could not remember when the last great victory was, or there was no great victory at all.

The people were also very happy, they looked at the Ming army outside the city from the houses one by one, they all looked incredulous, as if they didn't believe that the Ming army came to rescue them.

"Report! Ao Bai ran away," one person reported, and Xiao Chuan looked around strangely and said, "What's the matter?" Wasn't there all our soldiers around yesterday, and they couldn't run away from the wall? "Outside the city, there is a net of heaven and earth, where can he run away directly?

"Tunnels have been built in the city ahead of schedule!" This man said, pointing to a place in the city in the distance, everyone understood, Wu Sangui was surprised: "Tartar is still so cunning" This Aobai has broken the image of the Tartar in everyone's hearts, arrogant and barbaric, but this Aobai is cunning and abnormal, and he also knows how to buy people's hearts, but it is precisely because he knows how to buy people's hearts that Xiaochuan easily won the city.

Xiaochuan is also different, this Ao Bai is a little different from the one in his own image, maybe he is so cunning himself, otherwise how could he have such a monstrous power, but this person is really powerful, first hanging households and then strong cities, if he hadn't drugged himself in advance yesterday, this city may not be able to take it, and this person will inevitably be a big rival of himself in the future.

After cleaning these up, I started walking towards the city again. The land inside the city was wet with a foul smell, and countless people were crowded out of the houses in the surrounding cities, walking out of the city like a tide, and the stones of the city gate had been cleared.

On the side, Wang Heng looked around and laughed: "I'm afraid we will take down no less than 240,000 people this time, this is the cornerstone of the future of my Qingzhou Army!" ”

Xiao Chuan nodded, and said, "There have been locust plagues, droughts, and population loss in Shandong, and now there are only more than 1.5 million left, and most of these people are tenants of landlords. ”

"Shandong's troops are all where Liu Zeqing is, and the first priority after we go back is to dispose of Liu Zeqing" Xiaochuan said, this person has 50,000 soldiers under his command, and the military leaders in various places in the late Ming Dynasty are not unable to fight, but do not want to fight, the first half of the hanging and beating of the rebel army, but it is to raise thieves to invite merit, and they will not be exterminated at all, and they have repeatedly let the rebels live. In the back, the thieves were not effective, just like Liu Ze invited the people of He, Long and the like, after a rebel army really became bigger and stronger, they surrendered in pieces.

"This person has been operating in Shandong for many years, and has contacts with landlord families all over the country, if we block the development of Shandong, this person will be removed" Wang Heng said, he also robbed him of the position of Shandong General Army, it stands to reason that his soldiers have to give it to themselves, but these soldiers can they either? And Liu Zeqing would be so willing to hand over 50,000 elite soldiers?

"Liu Zeqing's illness, the real problem is those families, they control the land," Wang Heng said, this time the landlord Haoqiang is his real biggest enemy.

"This is easy to do, solve them, this is also the reason why we developed Sakuma to be a pirate!" Ogawa laughed out loud as he spoke, but in his heart he didn't take the local families as a thing at all, his own pirate group has grown and grown, with Viking pirates as the backbone, recruiting Japanese ronin, mercenaries, and ninjas The group can handle these things for himself, and then his own defense against the pirates is not effective, and these families have nothing to do with themselves in order to resist the pirate all the deaths.

"I'm afraid that they will collude inside and outside," Wang Heng said, "So this time we still need to strike first," he made a sneering expression.

During the conversation between the two, Xu Wenjue and others came, and Xiaochuan stopped talking. This time, they had joy on their faces, and the feats represented by the heads of the Tartars were all to make them crazy, and they almost fought for the heads.

"What about these people" Xu Wenjue asked, and immediately everyone's faces changed, they are all rich landowners, and there is no shortage of people and money, these refugees, no one is willing to accept them, they all began to shirk it, the fields in their territory are scarce, and there is simply not enough surplus population to live.

"Then the general will settle these people, and I will arrange my sergeants to send all these people back to their homes," Xiao Chuan said, and everyone said that the general was benevolent and righteous, but in their hearts, they felt that Xiao Chuan was stupid and raised such a group of useless people.

After that, the army went out of the city, and the Tuntian Army and the Beifu Army took the people who couldn't see the edge to look at the Qingzhou transportation, and then they would become the Tuntian Army, followed by the endless red ocean.

**********

A large camp, this camp is full of the neighing sound of mules and horses, with a terrible sound, the inside and outside of the camp is distinct, outside is a set of broken grass houses, everywhere is dirt, one by one the hungry people in tattered clothes wandering outside, working, some are building equipment, it looks very broken, one by one armor thieves wandering in it, and when they see someone lazy, they will drink or whip it.

Further inside, the inner camp is wearing armor, holding weapons in his hands, and it looks more energetic, energetic, and the barracks are also very neatly placed, all kinds of facilities, ditches are all available, the queue is also very neat, and there are stables in the middle, and there are war horses in it.

In the innermost part is a large battalion, a group of fierce sergeants, they look indifferent, felt hats and red cherries, holding all kinds of sophisticated weapons in their waists, some are still wearing the armor of the Ming army, holding firearms in their hands, and a big tent in the middle is a burst of arguments.

"No, the elite of the Qingzhou Army, Zhang Xianzhong, Tartar, and the Japanese can beat it? We can't please it."

"They have just plundered the Manchu camp in Hebei, how much gold and silver treasures are there, as well as grain and grass, and if so, how much will it be? For all this money, the people who die are hungry anyway!"

"Don't make any noise," said a handsome and indifferent man at the head, he was wearing a big felt hat and a red cloak looking at a room full of people, it was Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, and in front of him were his generals. Said: "Don't argue, the Qingzhou army is the elite of the world, and if you want his grain and grass, you need to think about it in the long run" He said with hesitation in his tone.

"No, King Chuang, the Qingzhou Army is a hero who fought against the Tartar Invaders, if we attack them, I'm afraid we will lose the hearts of the people" A person on the side said, he was wearing a blue cloth coat, although he was dressed as a scholar, he was a sword across his waist, burly, it was Li Zicheng's recently very favored general Li Yan, this person joined the Righteous Army last year, and unlike history, he joined the Righteous Army in advance, which is to put forward a strategy to help the Righteous Army carry out political propaganda, so that businessmen and children can sing everywhere "Open the door to welcome the King, and the King will not pay food when he comes", "Open the door early to worship the King, Discipline everyone is happy" This ballad is his compilation, and the strategy of propagating benevolence and righteousness among the people, after the effect is remarkable, it was originally four positive and six corners, and after being beaten to surrender, Li Zicheng of Shangluoshan was miraculously defeated several cities, all of which were opened by the hungry people in the city, which made Li Zicheng from a new Nirvana.

Although Li Zicheng's army burned, killed and looted, but these ancient information was inconvenient to disseminate, coupled with children and merchants all over the country to sing these ballads, everyone thought that Li Zicheng was a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, and he needed to know how to feed him if he moved hundreds of thousands of troops not to rob, Li Zicheng tasted the sweetness and admired Li Yan even more, but he put forward the policy of prohibiting robbery and humiliation of women, he has been prevaricating, he has so many troops under his command and has no base of his own, and there is only one way to rob if he wants to feed.

This time, he asked him not to rob the Qingzhou Army, he had a headache, the other party looted the Qing army camp, how much grain, grass, gold and silver, if he was ambushed halfway, these things were not all his own, but for Li Yan, the mainstay of the rebel army, he was not good at refusing directly, he saw this person's ability, but he always proposed some strategies that gave him a headache, and if he had it, he couldn't say it directly, so he glanced at Liu Zongmin on the side.

Liu Zongmin understood, that is, he said: "General Li's words are not right, as a Ming general, he resisted the Tartars in order to consolidate Zhu Ming's regime, in order to make the imperial court more powerful exploitation of the people, what to do in the righteousness, and these money are the Tartars robbing the money of my Ming people, if it is transported away by the Qingzhou army, it will be in the hands of those civil officials in the imperial court, and let those dog officials bully the people of the world, such ill-gotten gains, my righteous army should take it." ”

After he finished speaking, Li Zicheng's old brothers followed suit, and Li Yan secretly sighed and couldn't speak, such a thief can really become a big thing, but this time he has nowhere to go from a thief, so he said: "The Qingzhou army is the elite of the world, and the field battle is strong, even the elite of the Manchu Qing Dynasty is not an opponent, and my righteous army can't beat it" What he thought in his heart was that the other party was a hero who fought against the Tartars, and he didn't like to rob this hero, and from a strategic level, Houjin was the real enemy, However, the group of bosses in front of them don't think about the problem from a strategic level, all they think about is how to rob.

"You, how can you grow the ambition of others, and extinguish your own style," said Hao Shaoqi, the general on the side, saying a common saying, but he suddenly forgot the word and looked very embarrassed. A person on the side: "Destroy your own prestige" Everyone laughed, and Hao Shaoqi's face was red and he stopped talking.

"Everyone has seen the firearms of the officers and soldiers, but are the really elite firearms of the officers and soldiers sharp? Sun Chuanting's Qin army has been seen by everyone, the firearms of the Qingzhou army are ten times sharper, and the combat power is far above the Qin army, so how can we fight in the field" Li Yan said: "I'm afraid that we won't be able to rush into their positions if the hungry people die."

Some people on the side turned pale, some people were not convinced, Song Xiance said: "This is a bad statement, I have studied the combat strength of the Qingzhou army, he is not as strong as General Li said, this Ming army field battle, not a real field battle, but first to form a village, and then an artillery gun to resist the enemy, and when he is sharp but the ammunition is finally used up, my righteous army is hungry for hundreds of thousands, and then find hundreds of thousands after the fight, there is always a time when the gunpowder is used up, and then the infantry battalion, the old battalion brothers stepped forward, are you afraid that you can't beat this group of Ming troops?"

"That's right, countless hungry people are the advantage of our rebel army, no matter how strong the firecracker is, then we will wait for his guns to be consumed."

A group of people echoed loudly, Li Yan sighed helplessly, what he was thinking about was to help the rebels gain prestige, he thought that only by getting the hearts of the people could they get the world, and the results of the rebels were built on a series of propaganda, if they continued to loot, wouldn't they expose their own lies, so who in the world is still a thief? This time he didn't go to fight the Qingzhou Army, what he thought about was not to provoke this hero known all over the world, he didn't think that he could beat the other party, he sighed helplessly, looked at a room of generals, and sighed secretly, "What a group of horse thieves!" He knew that the Ming Dynasty was extremely dark, and only the righteous army was the way out for the people, and he wanted to change this group of looting thieves, but there was nothing to gain, which made him a little disheartened.

"The families of Shandong contacted me and betrayed the information of the time of the Qingzhou army's southward journey, we must attack the opponent when he is unprepared, and we must take this Qingzhou Ming army in one fell swoop" Li Zicheng said, "The Qingzhou army will go to the capital first to accept the cheers of the people, and then it will be arrogant, and our attack on the road will be surprisingly successful!" They must not have been prepared."

Everyone began to make a plan, Li Zicheng called Li Yan over, he has always attached great importance to this talented young man, but he felt that some of the other party's strategies were not suitable for the current righteous army at all, and said: "Make up for it (Li Yan's words), you have worked hard, this time you have contributed a lot to the propaganda of my righteous army, and these cities of the Ming army have also been awarded to you" Li Yan was very moved by his words of encouragement and care, but Li Zicheng is very good at buying people's hearts, even if his subordinates killed their wives when they were defeated in Shang Luoshan.

Li Yan sighed, Li Zicheng's kindness touched him, but he was also helpless, he said: "The student is dedicated to the righteous army, alas, the king, the righteous army really can't rob the people anymore!" ”

Li Zicheng didn't care, wouldn't the righteous army starve to death if he didn't rob the people, he looked at Li Yan in front of him, but it was not easy to refute him, he was really bookish, but continued to laugh: "Alas, make up for it, if there is a stable rear in the future, my righteous army will definitely stop killing and robbing."

Li Yan shook his head and sighed, but also understood some of Li Zicheng's hardships, Li Zicheng said again: "This time your firecracker team, I will broadcast your five hundred firecrackers again, which was just captured last time" He said that this is how to win people's hearts, this Li Yan's firecrackers are really sharp, and the firecrackers are not able to play at all, they have been working hard to cultivate Li Yan's firecracker power, he already has three thousand firecrackers under his command, and there are many craftsmen accompanying him.

"Thank you, King Chuang!" Li Yan hugged his fists, moved in his heart, Li Zicheng said: "Don't go back to the army tonight, you and I can drink here, and then let me go and find some wine and meat."

After Li Zicheng's nephew Li Guo heard it, he randomly walked outside to look for wine and meat.

The two talked heart-to-heart in it, Li Zicheng is good at winning people's hearts, no matter that defeat, he must have a large number of heartfelt subordinates to follow him.
