In fact, Wang Zheng was not as calm as he seemed on the surface, and some of the words he said to Sun Chuanting were not expected by himself, but they were already from the bottom of his heart, and they were not in the original plan.

In the past, Wang Zheng only thought about these words, but this was the first time he said them to a stranger, and after Sun Chuanting left, Wang Zheng sighed heavily, knowing that he had just said a little too much.

Wang Zheng really has the heart to recruit Sun Chuanting, but he also understands that if Sun Chuanting can be easily recruited to the Shandong Army by himself, then he will not be the Sun Chuanting in history.

Sun Chuanting came to Cangzhou, but the Shandong army's actions in Hejian Mansion did not appear to be delayed or fearful, but became more rapid.

Wang Zheng repeated his old tricks, and once again gave an ultimatum to all the wealthy families and big families in Hejian Mansion, asking them to come to Cangzhou City for a banquet.

This kind of Hongmen banquet is not the first time to use it, every time you receive this kind of invitation, it is a disaster for the whole family of the wealthy family, do you say to go or not?

Go, that is, to be completely tied to the Shandong army, there is no way back, if you don't go, that person will not be soft at all, and there are fewer people who have been razed to the ground.

This trick is used tirelessly, everyone can see it, but there is no way, although it is controlled by others, but at least it will save the life of the whole family, judging from the past examples, those who did not go were destroyed and died.

The Shandong army killed the big landlords, compared to the thieves and bandits, it was not soft at all, it was really a family to kill a family, and the most terrifying thing was last time.

The wealthy families and big families in Shandong who did not obey Wang Zheng, and by the way, the official families who had long been deprived of real power, were liquidated almost within half a month.

If someone asks for a name, the Shandong army does not give too many names, which is quite arrogant and unreasonable, and the person who comes is that you are a thief, followed by indiscriminately asking people to behead.

If you encounter the slightest resistance, just in the name of resisting arrest, kill your whole family, many people understand a truth, if you want to mix under Wang Zheng's hands, you can only follow his steps.

A few years ago, Wang Zheng acted very low-key, because this was not the case in the world at that time, and he was somewhat jealous.

But in the current situation, the Shandong army is completely unable to check and balance, just like the thieves who swept the Central Plains, but one is directly rebelling, and the other is doing it in the name of the official army, and the court is simply an empty shell.

Wang Zheng is completely expanding his territory in the name of military advice, relying on the name of the court officials and soldiers not to let go, but those who do it are the same as thieves.

If someone shows the slightest disobedience in this process, they will inevitably be uprooted and there will be no bones left!

How could Wang Zheng keep a time bomb that was against his own yang and yin?

When the wind and clouds were surging in Hejian Mansion, the Chuang army and the Western army were also attacking the city non-stop on the other side, and the Qing army was still tasting the joy of Songjin's victory and Hong Chengchou's surrender.

In the past, the army was completely a powerful thief, although it was huge, but no one had ever worried that they could become a climate, or even threaten the Ming court.

But now they are obviously a lot more rational in their actions, they know how to trim, they have standard clothing and battalion systems, and they even begin to understand the principle of setting up officials to occupy one place.

At present, in the area of Henan Prefecture, the rule of the Ming court is actually in name only, and there are basically no officials and troops of the imperial court, and it has completely become a world of camps.

In the whole of Henan, the remaining strength of the official army is very small, and the landlords are strong and strong only seeking self-preservation, and thieves of all sizes are wandering around in the name of breaking into the army, and they have tried again and again.

Although Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai said that they had the same victory in Huguang, they were claimed to be 500,000 together, but the actual number was only 100,000, but at this time, Li Zicheng's army was already known as a million people, so it seems that the real number must be at least hundreds of thousands.

No one can understand that Li Zicheng was defeated by Sun Chuanting and Hong Chengchou in the early years, and only a dozen horsemen were left to hide in the mountains, and it has been less than two years since his comeback, and it has become such a situation.

And among them, Li Zicheng fought several times with the Shandong General Soldier Wang, who is known as the champion of the three armies, and was defeated repeatedly, at least he was beheaded thousands of levels of rout, but he was always able to recover in the shortest time.

At the end of the fourteenth year of Chongzhen, Wang Zheng led the Shandong army to chase the army all the way for dozens of miles, and Li Zicheng lost his armor all the way, and lost several towns in a row, but he couldn't resist it at all.

didn't wait long, Li Zicheng turned his head and chased Zuo Ping's thief for dozens of miles, and swept most of Henan again in an instant.

Why is it said that most of Henan, because unlike history, Kaifeng and Guide in Henan have been completely controlled by the Shandong army, like a nail into it.

Li Zicheng also knew that this nail had to be pulled, but after attacking several times in a row, there was no result in losing troops and losing generals, and he felt that he couldn't attack it at this point, so at the suggestion of Niu Jinxing, he gave up the land of these two prefectures and captured other regions.

At this time, people are a little superstitious, the Shandong army is already so strong, and it can't restrain the pace of the rise of the army, is it really as Song Xiance said, is the destiny of heaven like this?

Zhang Xianzhong is actually just as worried, compared to Li Zicheng, his ambition is not small, Li Zicheng almost never defeated Zuo Liangyu, but Zhang Xianzhong fought Zuo Liangyu, but almost never won.

In the past, every time Zhang Xianzhong saw that he was about to rise, he would be poured a basin of cold water on Zuo Liangyu's head.

Speaking of which, Zhang Xianzhong's troops in Huguang and even Henan, the reputation is even louder than that of Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, as early as when Li Zicheng was still the general of the eight teams under Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong was already a well-known eight kings in the peasant army from all walks of life.

But despite this, Zhang Xianzhong, the main cavalry horse team, is known as the wind, but he is a relatively weak one in the Central Plains expedition dominated by infantry and melee battles.

is often defeated by the official army when the momentum is huge, and most of the victories are fought with Luo Rucai, and most of Zuo Liangyu's military exploits are won on Zhang Xianzhong's head.

......

Just when Wang Zheng personally led the soldiers of the Shandong Army to Hejian Mansion to "admonish the soldiers", the Wengzhou Mansion of Shandong Zhiyang, ushered in some uninvited guests.

These people are wearing the white-veined yellow dragon banner, looking at the armor, it turns out to be the infantry armor of the Qing army's white flag, but the person who is the leader is not Dongyu Jiannu, but a Han person.

"General, are we going to attack the city with such fanfare?"

This so-called Qing soldier with a white flag is speaking a righteous Shandong dialect, and the one who spoke just now seems to be obviously a Han Chinese, and when he heard what he said, the general frowned obviously and said:

"How many times has Lao Tzu told you, all are unified, and you want to call Lao Tzu all unified!" Shaking his head, Liu Xiong glanced at Rongyang City and asked:

"All of our Shandong Army people have withdrawn from the city, right?"

"Return... All of them are withdrawn, just waiting for all... Give an order, attack the city! ”

The capital is always unaccustomed to being called, and what is said is stumbling, so in the end, the general of the regular army simply doesn't call it at all.

These are actually Shandong soldiers wearing Qing army skins, the real number is two thousand, this time Wang Zheng fanfare soldiers, one is to change the title, with an iron fist to tell the court the current strength of the Shandong army, the other is to take the opportunity to expand the territory, but the most important thing is to take advantage of the chaos to kill the current Lu king Zhu Yipai.

In history, Zhu Yipai died at this time, but it was really the Qing army that committed suicide after the white flag fell into the city.

The Qing army didn't even see a shadow at all, and it didn't look like it was coming.

This may be one of the butterfly effects of Wang Zheng's wings, Zhu Yipai is the old king of Lu, his prestige is still very high, and he is also very unfamiliar and indifferent to the Shandong army.

In contrast, Zhu Yihai, who has been controlled by the Shandong Army, is obviously the best candidate for King Lu, but if Zhu Yipai does not die, how can Zhu Yihai of the Shandong Army attack King Lu?

Therefore, whether the Qing army comes or not, Zhu Yipai must die, and the Shandong army borrowed the sword of the Qing army to kill Zhu Yipai is Wang Zheng's decision alone, and only a few people inside know about it.

The reason why Wang Zheng made this military admonition attract the attention of the world is that he can kill Zhu Yipai as a matter of course, at least now, it seems that this thing has been done perfectly.

Whether it is the imperial court or the rest of the country, even Sun Chuanting has already set its sights on Cangzhou, who would have thought that Rongyang, in the center of Wengzhou Mansion, would infiltrate a Qing army?

All the soldiers were dispatched, Wang Zheng himself was not in Shandong, Cangzhou is such a big thing, who can think of the Shandong army.

There is also a reason for choosing the positive white flag, the two white flags are personally trained by Dolgon, if there is anyone in the Qing army who will have the idea of taking advantage of the chaos to enter Shandong, that is, Dolgon, the prince of Rui.

Not surprisingly, this pot Dolgon is back.

The Qing army armor on these Shandong soldiers is not heavy armor at all, just like the gorgeous armor of the Beijing camp only for the emperor to see, the purpose is only to hide people's eyes and ears, blame others, not to protect well.

Rongyang City was originally guarded by three battalions of Shandong soldiers, but some time ago, under the pretext of going to practice, Xing Yidao took most of the people away, and the rest were also opened, and the city gate was not opened at all, and it was replaced with a wooden gate that opened with a push.

Two thousand Shandong soldiers pretended to be Qing soldiers to attack the city, in the final analysis, all they needed to deal with was a few hundred guards of the Lu Wangfu, and what heavy armor protection was needed in this situation.

From the moment when Liu Xiong led the Laizhou soldiers into the city under the banner of the Qing army, the fact that Zhu Yipai, the king of Lu, was killed by the surprise attack of Dolgon, was a certainty.
