The city of Jinan has already been in chaos, Wang Zhongqing led more than 100 personal guards, directly into the governor's yamen, inside the officials fled in a panic, all kinds of files, pamphlets scattered everywhere, from time to time you can hear the leader shouting, "These are burned..."

Wang Zhongqing and his entourage came in, which was not in accordance with the rules, but at this time, no one stopped them at all, and no one asked, so they let more than 100 of them directly break into the backyard.

The backyard is where Governor Fang Dayou lives, and after entering, it is even more chaotic than the front.

Everyone saw the servants and maidservants scurrying around with things, and the carriages stopped in the middle of the courtyard, and the wrappers loaded boxes of belongings onto the carts, and it was obvious that Fang Dayou was about to run away.

Fang Dayou has been a feudal official in Shandong for nearly ten years, with a huge fortune, Wang Zhongqing stood in the courtyard, glanced at each other with several cronies around him, and his face leaked a trace of fierceness.

These **** people, usually search places, and think about escaping when things happen, and they are not things compared to him.

He at least considered his subordinates and sought a way out for them, but Fang Dayou only cared about himself.

"Wang Junmen, why did you come here?" Fang Dayou came out of the study and was instructing the two minions to put away a pair of Jade Guanyin, when he suddenly saw Wang Zhongqing in the courtyard leading more than a hundred people in, and couldn't help but come forward and asked a little embarrassed.

When he heard that the advance of the army was about to arrive in Jinan, he hurriedly ordered his family to pack up his things, but forgot to inform Wang Zhongqing and others.

Wang Zhongqing squinted and looked around, the finance was full of forty or fifty carts, but he didn't answer, pointed to the vehicles and asked, "Lord Futai, are you preparing to leave Jinan?" ”

"Hehe~" Fang Dayou laughed and explained: "The current situation Wang Junmen is also clear, it's not that Benfu doesn't believe in the military, it's just that the Ming army is strong, and there are too few soldiers and horses in Jinan, so it is impossible to block the Ming army. The military gate can rest assured, when you arrive in Hebei, the sound of the military gate will come to find a way, how about it? ”

Wang Zhongqing failed in the ambush at the mouth of the river, after the Ming army went ashore, all the provinces in Shandong surrendered, Fang Dayou was already frightened, he knew that Shandong had no troops to stop him, and he also knew that Dolgon had no effort to save him.

The Ming army that was killed from the east, he had no means to deal with it at all, so he made a very wise decision to leave Jinan quickly, so as not to be surrounded by the Ming army and finally lose his head.

He had already thought about it, looking at the current situation, the Qing Dynasty estimated that it would not work, and he was ready to abandon his official position and settle down in a certain place after he arrived in Hebei.

He has scavenged a lot over the years, enough for several generations to live a rich life.

Wang Zhongqing listened to his words, but suddenly sneered, "Lord Futai, I'm afraid I can't just leave!" ”

Fang Dayou took his family and said that he could leave, but Wang Zhongqing's subordinates had already taken root in Shandong, but they could not just leave.

As he spoke, several cronies behind him had already pressed their knives and pressed towards Fang Dayou, who suddenly changed his face and retreated again and again, and said in a panic, "Wang Junmen, what are you going to do?" ”

"Ask Futai to borrow something, just keep the brother safe and sound!" Wang Zhongqing smiled cruelly.

He suddenly pulled out the knife, Fang Dayou was frightened, turned around and wanted to run, but the way was blocked by the soldiers, and at this moment, there was a muffled sound of "poof", the knife entered the body, Wang Zhongqing had already chased after him, and stabbed Fang Dayou through with a knife from behind.

Just like Man Dazhuang's analysis, Wang Zhongqing is a person without loyalty, what he has to do is to adapt to the times and live well.

As a rebel general who surrendered first and then surrendered to the Qing, it is not surprising that he did such a thing, otherwise he would not have been able to avoid the two changes in the north.

Fang Dayou glanced down, the tip of the knife that emerged from his abdomen, blood rushed out with the blood trough, and his face was distorted. Wang Zhongqing kicked him in the back and pulled out the knife with his strength, Fang Dayou immediately weakened and fell to the ground.

Wang Zhongqing didn't look at the corpse much, but held the knife in his hand, and shouted: "Kill them all, send all these vehicles to the town's mansion!" ”

In the courtyard, before Fang Dayou's family members and Bao Yi could react from the scene just now, the Qing soldiers who came in drew their knives and slashed and killed, so startled that they scattered in a hurry, screaming and fleeing.

Outside the city, at noon that day, the Ming army had arrived in the east of Jinan, Man Dazhuang led his own soldiers to view the city, he saw the Qing army standing at the head of the city, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

The Yellow River was in a dry period, and he couldn't find so many slender men for a while, and the big ships couldn't get in, otherwise his warships would sail in, and he would be able to shell Jinan directly.

Although there were not many Qing troops in the city of Jinan, he did not have any equipment. If you wait for the cannon to arrive, I'm afraid you will waste a lot of time.

Just let Ma Guanghui in Xuzhou know that the back road was copied, and it had no impact on the whole situation, and the key was that he was afraid that the news would reach Heluo, and Dolgon saw that the flank had been broken through by the Ming army, and chose to retreat north in a hurry, and the plan of the Ming army to annihilate the enemy's main force in the Central Plains was in vain.

"Governor, look!" Just when Man Dazhuang was pondering, the generals around him suddenly pointed in the direction of Jinan City and let out an exclamation.

Man Dazhuang hurriedly looked up, only to see the gate of Jinan opened, dozens of horses galloped out, coming towards them, he hurriedly ordered, "Be careful!" ”

The Ming army immediately clenched the sword, and after a while, the other party had already arrived, but it seemed to see the Ming army's defensive intentions, in order not to let the Ming army be distracted, so they did not show their blades, did not hold bows and arrows, showing that there was no malicious intent.

For the first ride, under the gaze of Man Da Zhuang, came to a stop fifty steps away, then turned over and dismounted, and stepped forward alone with a wooden box, bowed down directly in front of Man Da Zhuang, raised the wooden box above his head, and said loudly: "Fang Dayou does not know the current affairs, vainly trying to resist the heavenly soldiers, the criminal general Wang Zhongqing, has been killed, and is willing to raise Jinan and surrender to the Ming Dynasty!" ”

Fang Dayou was really unlucky, he didn't want to defend Jinan at all, but Wang Zhongqing had to reflect his resistance to dedicating the city, so he could only borrow his head.

Man Dazhuang was stunned, Qian Yifeng next to him hurriedly asked someone to take the wooden box, opened it and saw that it was indeed a bloody human head, and no one knew it, so he had to ask someone to put it away first.

"General Wang can submit to my Daming, this is a good thing, but I don't know what the conditions are?" Man Dazhuang reacted and asked on the horse.

Wang Zhongqing immediately replied: "The criminal general has two requests, one is not to insult and kill, and the other is to ensure the safety of the criminal general and his subordinates' families and property. ”

Man Dazhuang looked at Qian Yifeng, the latter nodded, Man Dazhuang immediately laughed and turned over and dismounted, and helped Wang Zhongqing up, "Okay, General Wang can abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and the court will definitely be rewarded." ”

Man Dazhuang originally wanted to conquer the city and skin Wang Zhongqing, but he didn't expect this guy to be so knowledgeable about current affairs, as soon as his army arrived, Wang Zhongqing directly offered the city, so that he could not find an excuse to treat him.

At this time, Man Dazhuang could only accept his surrender, but he also kept an eye on it, and did not rush into the city, but asked Wang Zhongqing to take his men out of the city to surrender.

In the afternoon of the same day, Wang Zhongqing personally led more than 4,000 Qing troops out of the city to surrender, Man Dazhuang personally came forward to accept the surrender, and Qian Yifeng, the supervisor of the army, on behalf of the imperial court, appeased the surrendering army, promised to treat it well, and never killed in vain.

Wang Zhongqing's surrender, although it was just the icing on the cake for the Ming army, was not meaningless.

The Qing army's Shandong general army sacrificed Jinan, so the Ming army basically did not have to fight other states and counties in Shandong.

The Ming army occupies Jinan, and the war in Shandong can be said to be ironclad, and Ma Guanghui will become the turtle in the urn, and the defeat will be in front of him.

That night, Man Dazhuang and Qian Yifeng held a banquet in the camp, first, to celebrate the achievement, and secondly, to get more information about Shandong from Wang Zhongqing's mouth.

Halfway through eating, drinking, and chatting, a general came to the account and reported to Man Dazhuang: "Governor, the patrolling brother is in the south of Jinan City, and he has caught a fine work, according to the confession, he was ordered by Ma Guanghui to come to Jinan for help!" ”
