A wreck in Jinxiang, Luck Dehun did not stay here, but directly crossed the lotus water, camped in the north, resisted the Ming army that followed, this battle he was a failure, the Ming army had lost more than half, and then give him half a day, he could break through the opponent's military formation, he did not expect that at this time suddenly killed a support army, so that he was caught off guard, he did not expect that the Ming army Zhuangzigu would be so tenacious, blocking his offensive all night, so that he also suffered a lot of losses in this battle.

The battle in Heshui was quickly sent to Yuan Shu's desk by 600 miles, Yuan Shu was also a strong figure, the other party suddenly invaded, he couldn't help but give the other party a lesson, and then ordered the Yellow River sailor Liu Tongsheng to lead the water army to Weishan Lake to respond, and at the same time transferred Liu Fangliang of Suizhou and Zhang Tianlu of Chenzhou to immediately reinforce Zhuangzigu's department, and at the same time transferred Li Yuanyin and Bai Wang from Kaifeng to lead an army of 5,000 to reinforce.

And Luck Dehun saw that the Ming army began to counterattack, but also from Qingzhou, Jinan to transfer troops, to fight to the death with the Ming army, he was not willing to fail, to the lotus line, and the Ming army fierce battle, the terrain here is flat, he has more war horses in his hands, he still has a very advantage, want to win back a game here.

Qingzhou, Zichuan County, Han Mansion, Han Mansion is the residence of Han Fengzhi, the former Taifu Temple, after the Qing army went south to Shandong, Han Fengzhi was brave and unyielding, and was killed, but Han Mansion's servant Xie Qian was not afraid of danger, organized a team of hundreds of people, concealed the people, and vowed to avenge Han Fengzhi.

"Brothers, our opportunity has come, my Ming army has begun to capture Shandong, these days Qingzhou soldiers and horses have rushed to the southwest, the Qing army Tartars are fighting with my Ming army on the border of Shandong and Henan, now Shandong is empty, it is our opportunity to take revenge, we people, isn't it just waiting for this day, two years ago, our wives and children died tragically in the fall of Tartars, now we can take revenge."

In a fisherman's hut near Zishui, more than a dozen people gathered, led by Xie Qian, and immediately everyone was gearing up, finally waiting for this day.

"Brothers, let's do it tonight, kill into Zichuan, slaughter that dog Guanzhi County, and then raise a big banner to respond to the Ming Army, Brother Ding, you lead a hundred brothers to enter the city first, lurking inside, and wait until the second watch tonight, you and I should join forces inside and outside, and take Zichuan."

Xie Qian's brother Ding Keze, who was next to him, also said with a touch of fierceness at the moment: "Okay! ”

"Good! Then act separately, if you don't succeed tonight, you will become benevolent, and you will never be a slave of a dog and a tartar, and you will avenge your family and be ashamed of the Snow Country! ”

"Revenge, shame on the snow country!" Everyone said in a low voice, with a look of determination.

Dengzhou Prefecture Qixia County East Seventy Miles of the Sawtooth Mountain, here is entrenched in a force of people, the head of the person named Yu Qi, this is a general banner of the Ming army, after the Qing army captured Shandong, he joined the army in Dengzhou to resist, and later Denglai Governor Qi Biaojia went south, he took the 100th local people to flow here, robbed the rich and helped the poor, eliminated violence and peace, won the support of the local people, and soon gathered two or three thousand people, the Qing court government also had no way to take them.

"Brothers, we used to be a lonely ghost without a master, how many years have I endured in Qiqi, I am looking forward to the day when my Ming army will fight back, and now the opportunity has come, yesterday our secret agents under the mountain got the news, Dengzhou's soldiers and horses were transferred to the border of Luyu and Henan, and my Ming army fought back, brothers, we were originally the Ming army, how can we shrink here at this time, you say, what should we do?"

"Kill down the mountain, kill the Tartars......" Under the mobilization of Qi, everyone shouted in unison, and the momentum was violent.

The people who can follow them are not ordinary good people, they are all people with hatred on their backs, after the Qing army went south, burning, killing and looting, that is commonplace, how many innocent people were poisoned by them, these people will escape into the mountains and forests, just to take revenge, the people of the Chinese nation have always been able to forbear, not to the desperate situation, they will not easily resist, once they rise up to resist, that is a great fire of hatred burning in their hearts.

"Good! Follow me to kill down the mountain, respond to my Ming army, raise our banner, Lao Tzu is a damn man of the Ming Dynasty, and death is a ghost of the Ming Dynasty, never be a slave to the dog Tartar, let's kill the mountain together! ”

"Life is a person of the Ming Dynasty, and death is the ghost of the Ming Dynasty! Kill... Kill..."The crowd was furious and shouted one after another.

First of all, Xie Qian launched an anti-Qing uprising in the area of Zichuan, Shandong, and they first attacked the county town of Zichuan with foreign cooperation, and then aimed the spearhead of the struggle at the local landlords who colluded with the Qing Dynasty, confiscated the property and grain of the landlords and gentry, and distributed them to the local poor peasants, which were supported by the peasants, and the power developed rapidly, and in a few days, there were as many as 3,000 people from the clouds. Under the leadership of Yu Qi, all the strongholds in Dengzhou attacked at the same time, and the counties under the Dengzhou government also raised the banner of resistance to the Qing Dynasty in an instant. They attacked Fushan, surrounded Wendeng, and "burned and looted Bayi", dealing a heavy blow to the Qing army.

Shandong Yanzhou peasants Ding Weiyue and Zhang Yaozhong led the people to hold an anti-Qing uprising, they divided the rebel army into six units, respectively attacked Zhang Qiu, Yuncheng, Tangyi, Yanggu, Guanxian and Liangshan, two troops in the rebel army conquered Shouzhang and Tangyi, and killed more than 20 men and women of Chen Yili's family in Yandaodong, Qingdong. Ding Weiyue led more than 400 peasant army horsemen and thousands of infantry, and suddenly attacked the county seat of Yixian, the Qing defenders were invincible, and the city was broken the next day, and the rebel army swarmed into the city, opened the prison, and released the prisoners; He also opened the storehouse and distributed the grain to the poor peasants.

Among the rebel armies from all walks of life, the most powerful is the Yuyuan Army, and since the end of the Ming Dynasty, there have been so-called "Yuyuan thieves". Due to the continuous natural and man-made disasters in Shandong in the late Wanli period, a large area of cultivated land was abandoned, and "elm money fell to the ground, and it became a big tree for a long time". In the early years of Chongzhen, the hungry people led by Ren Qi and Zhang Qi "gathered among them" and "numbered millions". Not only did they use the dense Yulin forest as a cover, but they also created tunnel tactics, digging tunnels that crisscrossed the ground for hundreds of miles to attack the officers and soldiers out of nowhere.

Cao Bianjiao has always attached great importance to this force, and has sent Yang Longyou and Li Huajing to contact many times, because Cao Bianjiao's policy of benefiting the people and resolutely resisting the Qing Dynasty have also won the support of the Yuyuan Army, and they are willing to submit to the imperial court, but Cao Bianjiao has just been calculated by Ma Shiying at that time, and there is no way to place them, so he has been letting Li Huajiao stay there as a liaison matter, and it has been two full years.

This time, the Ming army and the Qing army were on the verge of breaking out because of an accident, coupled with the surging rebel armies in various places, so that Li Huajing also had an illusion, thinking that Cao Bianjiao would start to fight back again and recover the land of Shandong, so under his instigation, the Yuyuan army also began to raise the banner of the king and kill the Qing army, under the leadership of Ren Qi, Zhang Qi, Liang Min and others, divided the troops into several roads, and pounced on the surrounding cities, Caozhou, Dongming, Yuncheng, Juye and other places, and fell successively.

The general trend of the mighty uprising, this is what Luck Dehun did not expect, he is still fighting with the Ming army, you come and go, I didn't expect the backyard to catch fire at the same time, the whole land of Shandong, there is almost no pure land, so that Luck Dehun is also afraid, worried that the back road will be cut off by the rebel army, so he withdrew the army at night, fled to Yanzhou City, asked for help from the Beijing court, and waited for help in Yanzhou City.
