Chapter 379 Jizhou Knife and pen name are justified

The Manchu army entered the pass from the boundary ridge, and there were two governors in Changping and Baoding in Beizhili at that time, as well as six governors such as Ningyuan, Yongping, and Shuntian, and eight general soldiers.

In fact, after entering the land of Gyeonggi at Jielingkou, there were three general soldiers and two governors near this pass, all of whom were afraid of the enemy and did not dare to send troops, and watched the Tartar soldiers rush in the direction of the Beijing Division.

On the sixth day of November in the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Jizhou.

"Little ones, usually the court doesn't pay you, but Lao Tzu is good at eating and drinking to control you, and I am fighting with Lao Tzu!"

Jizhou garrison Tian Zhiguo held a big knife in his hand and shouted loudly on the horse, dozens of family members, hundreds of garrison soldiers in the city surrounded him, and agreed loudly.

That's right, there are only such a few soldiers, these hundreds of people are high-spirited, as if there is not an army of Tartars in front of them, but bandits and thieves on weekdays. As if he was going to win the battle, he rushed over and went forward.

Of course, they were like a drop of water falling into the river, disappearing quickly, and the front of the Tartar army did not even fluctuate at all.

At the head of Jizhou City, Wei Biyin, the governor of Jizhou, looked at the garrison Tian Zhiguo with a pale face, and his whole body was trembling, standing beside him is the same cold sweat on his face, and the pale face of the Qianzong Jizhou City did not know the news of the attack of the Tartar army, and even when the other party hit the city, he was shocked, and the garrison Tian Zhiguo saw so many Tartar troops outside, and he already knew what the result would be.

But look at the outside of the city. The only feasible way is to send someone to divert the attention of the Tartars first, let people report the news, rather than die in battle, this garrison Tian Zhiguo is quite bloody, leading his nephews and soldiers. Leave the city and take the initiative to charge the battle and die, buying time for the messenger.

The two messengers on horseback did take advantage of this opportunity to gallop in the direction of the Beijing Division, but there were also several Manchurian cavalry following behind, looking more than lucky.

Compared with the impassioned Tian Zhiguo, the Qian Zong standing beside Zhizhou did not have that courage, and he was speechless on the side, but Wei Biyin, the Zhizhou of Jizhou, recovered some of his spirits, turned his head and looked coldly at the Qian Zong beside him. Spoken:

"Mr. Zhang Qian. Now you are the supreme ruler of the army in the city. The army is approaching the city. Hurry up and come up with an idea! ”

"Master Zhizhou. Or. Or. Let's go down! ”

Hear this. Zhizhou Wei Biyin trembled. His hand pressed on the hilt of the sword at his waist. He said coldly:

Fang Cai's words were as if the official hadn't heard them. You are righteous when you are a field guard. Can't this official cut off your head, Zhang Qian lowered his head with shame. He hesitated for a moment before he spoke:

"Master Zhizhou. The only way to do that is to recruit all the men in the city to the city. Desperately defended. The only way we can do this is to hope for the Tartars outside the city......"

That's the right way to do it. But halfway through the conversation, he stopped. This Mr. Qian looked out of the city with a pale face. Zhizhou Wei Biyin after he showed his strange appearance. He also turned his head in his direction. The Tartars have already launched nearly eight cannons. The cannon is being fixed to the ground. Ready to.

"Great General Cannon!? When did the Tartars have this thing!! ”

That Zhang Qian is a person who has seen the world, but knowing this thing makes him even more frightened in his heart, this cannon is a sharp weapon for attacking the city, a small city like Jizhou, if the ants are attached to the siege, there is still a possibility of survival in the city to mobilize Ding Zhuang to defend it, but using this cannon to bombard, there is no local law to defend it.

The Manchu cannons were cast by craftsmen that Kong Youde brought from Dengzhou to Guanwai. In the late Ming Dynasty, the general cannon was often referred to as a fifteen-pounder cannon or an eighteen-pounder cannon. Because of the Manchu Dynasty's technical inadequacy, the 12-pounder cannon body and barrel were larger than normal. There are 3,800 catties of such artillery, and the Jiaozhou Battalion Ordnance Manufacturing Bureau was 3,200 catties when it was first manufactured, and now it can make 2,800 catties of artillery.

The twelve-pounder cannon of this tartar makes the Ming general at the head of the city look like a general's cannon, which is an unexpected psychological deterrent, but this twelve-pounder cannon is as easy to break as a small city like Jizhou City.

It's good to die, the place where Wei Zhizhou and Zhang Qian are standing is the direction where the muzzle of the cannon is facing, then Wei Zhizhou's body shook, but his pale face became normal, he was wearing a black gauze hat, straightened his waist, and said to Mr. Zhang Qian, who was already trembling like chaff:

"It's just death, this official is favored by the emperor, and the martyrdom is today!!"

Mr. Zhang Qian probably understood a little, reached out and wiped the sweat on his head, and muttered in a low voice:

"It's so righteous and awe-inspiring, I never saw you soft when you deducted military salaries......"

There was a deafening noise, and the earth shook.

Before these words were finished, the cannons under the city burst out, and one side of the city wall of Jizhou City collapsed, and outside the city was already waiting for the Manmeng soldiers and horses shouting and rushing in.

The city of Jizhou was so easy to break, Abatai who was watching the battle under the city and the Manchu generals behind him were all bored, but a group of Mongols who came with them were very excited, and they rushed towards the city, and the people who rushed in front were the Mongolian Eight Banners and the small tribes gathered on the grassland.

Compared with the excitement of the Mongols, Bel Tulichen of the Korqin Department beside Abatai was a little heavy-faced, he was such a pampered nobleman, and he was close to the royal family, and he would definitely be of great use in the future, so this time he was also sent out to follow the experience.

Although Abatai is the brother of Huang Taiji, and Tu Lichen is only hung up to Aixin Jueluo's family because of his sister's relationship, Abatai knows in his heart that Tu Lichen's status is not good enough to be much better than himself, and it is better to treat it politely, so he has always answered all questions.

"General, are the Ming people so brave and not afraid of death?"

This was Tu Lichen's first question, the Ming general led the charge of these men under his command, and naturally there was no effect, after being killed by bows and arrows and firearms. was all cut down and killed by the Qing soldiers, but such a momentum of seeing death as home still frightened this Mongolian Beyler.

Asking this question made Abatai turn his head in amazement, when did the word brave and not afraid of death actually be used on these Ming land Nanban, Belle Turichen saw Abatai's expression, but he also knew that his question was a little wrong. Hurriedly added:

"There are hundreds of people in this small city who are not afraid of death, and the people of the Ming Kingdom have so much grass on the grassland as we do, if they are all like this, how can we have enough soldiers and horses!!"

After a little silence, Abatai laughed, and the generals of the Qing army who heard this question behind him also laughed secretly, and the laughter stopped, looking at Naturi Chenbeile's face was a little unnatural, and explained with a smile:

"Lord Belle. These Han people in the Ming Dynasty are all pigs and dogs, and it is rare to see some bloody, and today I see this Jizhou City. I wonder why so many people who are not afraid of death come out, don't worry, when you follow our army more and more, you will know, come to this Daming, our Eight Banners Mongolian warriors are not here to fight, but to get things. ”

These words were not very convincing to Turichen, and Abatai shook his head and gestured:

"These sons and daughters in the blue flag have been drawn to follow them several times. The old and young masters of the rest of the banners and the Mongolian Eight Banners have also come, you can ask them. ”

The high-level generals were all following behind, seeing Tu Lichen turn around, each nodding with a smile, when the general Abatai said that "the Han people are pigs and dogs", everyone behind him heard it clearly, and several relatives of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty and the officers under the King of Sanshun were also there.

After hearing this, everyone laughed along, and they didn't feel that they were also Han at all. It's also the pig dog that Abatai said.

"That Hong Chengchou is a big official in the Ming Dynasty, didn't he still surrender us, what else is there in this Ming Kingdom who can fight to the death!"

"Lord Belle, this time you just wait to be comfortable, if you want gold and silver, if you want cattle and horses, if you want people and horses, if you want population, and the women of the Ming Dynasty officials and eunuchs, that is beyond our borders and on the grassland."

Someone ridiculed. Someone made fun. The atmosphere was uplifted, and it was the tone of a naked bandit. After finishing speaking, the beasts in the audience laughed again, and they didn't take this Daming in their eyes at all.

The population of the entire Ming Dynasty is over 100 million, the place is vast, the Mongolian tribes on the grassland of the Manchurian liquidation, the population will reach one million, and the territory is also a bitter cold land, not to mention the exhibition of civilization, the current Manchu Tatars have only begun to use their own script, and they used to use Chinese and Mongolian.

But such a small and barbaric people are such a contemptuous and civilized Ming Empire, which is really ridiculous, pathetic, and pitiful.

Seeing the Mongols and the people of the King of Sanshun in the city robbing so happily, the Manchu officers and soldiers outside the city were quite disdainful, thinking that these people had never seen the world at a glance.

Abatai and Turichen have already returned to the tent, and Abatai has already made up his mind, no matter what it is, he will explain it to this Korqin Baylor, there will be no mistake after all, otherwise the emperor will not let Turichen follow the army by name.

"Lay down Jizhou, we are one day and two days away from the Jingshi of the Ming Kingdom, the emperor and officials of the Ming Kingdom must be to mobilize the soldiers and horses around the King of Qin to escort them, this Beizhili must be empty everywhere, but our goal is not the Jingshi of the Ming Kingdom, after a day of rest, we will go south along the canal!"

Turichen nodded ignorantly, and Abatai explained impatiently:

"This time the emperor confessed, we must go south, I pondered, the north of the Ming Kingdom has been looted cleanly, and only when you go to the south can you have a population of gold and silver."

Seeing that Tu Lichen seemed to understand or not, although Abatai looked down on him in his heart, but there was no trace of boredom on his face, and when Na Tu Lichen returned, Abatai took off the pointed hood on his head, threw it aside, snorted coldly in his nose, and a young man who had been standing in the tent opened his mouth to report:

"Amma, it's almost tossing outside, just now the leaders and leaders of the flags have gone out to gather the soldiers and horses and come back, tonight the curfew is martial law, and the whole army will come out tomorrow!"

This young man was Abatai's fourth son, Yue Le. Tall, dark-faced, you can see a few scars on his face, he has been following Abatai to fight in the east and west, he is calm and brave and good at fighting, there have long been rumors among the eight banners of Shengjing. The reason why Huang Taiji has an appointment for Abatai is entirely because he has Yue Le's son.

Abatai heard Yue Le's report, nodded with satisfaction, and said:

"Look at the appearance of the Tu Lichen just now, this is the style of our Manmeng children, it is completely this Han son, Yue Le, you listen to me, this is a school that our family can't learn, this knife in our hands. **This horse is the capital of our family's life, you look at those people in Shengjing, each wearing a robe. Every day, I drank and feasted and listened to the play, and the things of the ancestors were thrown into the old forest. ”

"Amma's lesson is that children remember the ground."

Yue Le agreed in a sullen voice, now in several large cities in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the nobles and eunuchs of Manchuria are proud to imitate the rich life of the Han people, and those military generals of the older generation are very dismissive of this, and there are many ridicules, among which the three Dolgon brothers are models of liking this matter, and Duoduo is even more so.

Although Naturichen is a great nobleman on the steppe. But there is much more time in Shengjing every year than on the grassland, and Shengjing's habits are also tainted a lot, and old-fashioned figures like Abatai naturally don't look down on it.

Abatai thought for a moment, lowered his voice and said:

"The two white flags still have to be taken care of, and the land from Kaecheng today will be given more by them."

Yue Le took a step forward, obviously a little ignorant, and Abatai angrily reprimanded:

"Now the emperor's body looks like this, I don't know what will happen in the future. We have to be prepared, lest we end up with a cold stove. ”

Although Abatai has received the favor of the emperor, this time he led the army to conquer the Ming Dynasty and reaped the merits and wealth, and there is also the possibility of holding the blue flag. But the great nobles of this level are getting weaker and weaker in Huang Taiji, and the more the power of the two white flags is expanding, they still have to consider what the future will be.

"Next time the city is opened, let Huli Haibeizi lead the people with two white flags to play the striker. Let them make this cheap. These people also came in with Prince Rui last time, and they are old and fighting. Don't worry about things going wrong. ”

Yue Le nodded, and went to arrange it below.

The looting of Jizhou City has been completed, this is the first city to enter the customs and lay the ground, although the city has a large population, but after all, it cannot be moved with the population, so except for the beautiful women robbed by the nobles, the young men who are used as people's husbands, the rest of the people are slaughtered.

Tens of thousands of Ming people in Jizhou City were slaughtered, this is nothing, the emperor and the bigwigs in the Beijing division will not feel what kind of loss this is at all, the safety of the Beijing division is the most important thing, tell the Tatar army to enter the customs to attack the news place, it is Jizhou City with the entire city and the lives of the people to fight.

If it were normal, Emperor Chongzhen might still shed a few tears and a guilty edict, but at this time, the Tartar army was only less than two days away from the Beijing Division, so what else could it take care of, and the messengers with the will to gather soldiers and horses swarmed out of the Beijing Division and went to various military towns.

The two governors, the six governors, and the eight generals of the North Zhili were all ordered to lead the army back to help, if it wasn't for the Shandong army to go to the south to quell the chaos, I am afraid it would also be in the convocation.

As for whether the places where the soldiers and horses were stationed would not be poisoned by the Tartars without the protection of the army, this was not in the consideration of Emperor Chongzhen and the princes of the imperial court. The commander Hou Sui, who was stationed on the north bank of the Yellow River, was also among the messengers, but unfortunately Hou Sui and Xu Dingguo, the chief soldier of Shanxi, were both gathering border soldiers on the border of Shanxi and could not come.

The mobilization of soldiers and horses in various places in Beizhili is all converging in the direction of the Beijing Division, and the governors and generals everywhere are moving very quickly at this time, because everyone knows that the fortifications on the Beijing Division are complete, and there are many soldiers and horses gathered, and the army has many soldiers and horses, and the natural safety factor is also larger.

It's better than staying in one's own one-third of an acre of land, and when the army of the Tartars comes, it ends up in the same fate as Jizhou City, and everyone is loyal and righteous, and leads the army to hurry.

However, the Jingshi region did not get the exact news until the tenth day of November, and the Tartar army did not always come to the Beijing division after breaking Jizhou, but turned south.

Breaking through Baodi City and laying down the Xianghe River, he finally reached the edge of the canal, and Liu Yuanbin, the governor of the Beijing camp in Tongzhou, trembled and did not dare to come out.

Travel along the waterway, although the canal is frozen. In terms of transportation capacity, it is much more convenient to take water, and on both sides of the canal, there are many large warehouses established by the Ming Dynasty for transportation, and breaking these warehouses is also very convenient for military supplies. From this time on, the march of tens of thousands of Manchu troops began to speed up.

And between the Tartar army and Shandong, there is simply no army and terrain that can block the Tartar march.

This time, the Tartar army marched, although Abatai and a group of Manchu Qing troops did not take the combat power of the Ming army into account, but they still carried out the battlefield cover-up in a decent manner. When the army marched to the ground, the Manmeng light horsemen went out in all directions, covering the battlefield. Block messages.

This behavior of the Tartar army is crooked, but it has caused trouble for the spies in Shandong, in the north Zhili Beijing division and some key points. Lingshan Commercial Houses are placed with semicolons, and to put it bluntly, they are the strongholds for transmitting intelligence, in order to transmit the news of Jingshi and the north back to Shandong as soon as possible.

However, the fact that the Manchu army was sheltered on several roads that could be passed through Beizhili and Shandong allowed these spies to either be killed or make a detour.

Naturally, the timeliness of this message delivery is much worse......

Although Jiaozhou repatriated the warships and warships managed by the Zheng family, things did not get worse as the Zheng family's top brass thought, and the Zheng family could still buy a large amount of private salt in Shandong, dock merchant ships in private ports, and do their business as normal.

And because of the increase in private Hong Kong luxury businessmen in Lingshan. On the contrary, the Zheng family, who transported a large number of goods from Nanyang and Jiangnan, made a lot of profits, and their profits increased a lot compared to before.

The only thing I can worry about is that the Western merchant ships from the Americas and Tianzhu gradually knew about this Lingshan private port, and they all began to come to do business.

Zheng San, who was once privately detained and arrested by the Shandong Salt Gang, was still the bow of the Zheng family, no one knew that he had such an experience, but these days it was because of his generosity that his reputation in the Zheng family's fleet is getting better and better, November 12. His ship had returned from the north again.

According to his recent habits, he always goes to a restaurant in Fengmeng Town to sit down and play for a few days.

"Some time ago, except for our Zheng family's boat, the rest of the boats were not allowed to pass, and the Tartar soldiers guarding there said that their army had already come to Daming!"

Zheng San followed the shopkeeper who greeted him and whispered, the shopkeeper's expression did not change, he turned around and returned to the back of the counter.

At this time. No one in Shandong yet knew that the Tartar army was coming from the north. An hour after getting the news of Zheng San, a fast horse galloped out of Jiaozhou City. Head towards Jinan City. This is an omission in the intelligence system of the Shandong Salt Gang, although Li Meng led the army to Nanzhili, but the terminal of the entire intelligence system is still Jinan City, and it is only transmitted to the army in the south after being summarized here, and this back and forth transmission will definitely delay a lot of time.

After the news from Jiaozhou arrived in Jinan City, the spies arranged by the Jiaozhou battalion in Beizhili finally bypassed the blockade of the Tartar army and sent the news to Jinan City.

At this time, there were only Dengzhou troops in Jinan Prefecture, and the Dengzhou Army led by Zhao Neng also left 5,000 people to garrison in Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou, and there were only 20,000 soldiers and horses in the Jiaozhou battalion in Jinan Prefecture. In Yanzhou, the Yanzhou Army was deployed near the border between Henan and Nanzhili.

On November 15 of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Li Meng's army had already left Xuzhou for two days and arrived in Suqian.

After entering Nanzhili, the officials of the prefecture of Nanzhili really didn't know how to treat this army and Zhendong General Li Meng, so they had to do their best to support the military supplies, but they didn't dare to come to visit, but there were still several magistrates in Xuzhou Zhizhou, and they all sent letterheads to Li Meng's side in private, which was regarded as a vote in advance.

But the wealthy families in Xuzhou are completely different, they are very enthusiastic, and they have brought their own Minzhuang soldiers to defect, saying that they want to go south with the marshal to quell the thieves.

Xuzhou has always been a place where the people are fierce, the people of the wealthy family and the same clan are gathered together, self-protection in peacetime, looting in chaos, such large and small forces are most to defect to a promising enough strength, the Ming government will definitely not allow such an armed force in the locality.

Whether it is Li Chuang, Zhang Xianzhong or the Fifth Battalion of Ge Zuo, they have never arrived here, even if they want to defect, there is nowhere to go, and the risk is too great.

At this time, Li Meng led the army to come, it was the best choice to fall from the sky, and it has always been the best time to gamble on wealth and wealth when changing the sky and the earth. Why not, even if it can't be successful, this is also a good thing to help the court soldiers and horses to suppress thieves.

This made Li Meng really a little caught off guard, compared to the shy answer of the wealthy families in Shandong, Xuzhou, which has not been under control for a long time, has such a situation.

Of course. The private armed forces of large families in Shandong are strictly prohibited, and naturally no one dares to take the initiative to send them to death, and in Xuzhou, it is a tradition to keep private soldiers at home, and the Jiaozhou battalion appeared at the right time, so it was naturally welcomed.

Regarding the enthusiasm of the wealthy families in Xuzhou, although Li Meng rejected the "kindness" of these wealthy families, he sent people to register these wealthy families, and the big families and their private soldiers here. It is really a good source of soldiers, if the Jiaozhou battalion expands the army next, the private soldiers of the Hao clan here are the best choice.

After arriving in Suqian. The army had a short rest, ten days before this, the Qingzhou army led by Ma Gang was already along the Huai River all the way to the west, the Qingzhou army passed through Fengyang Mansion with great fanfare, and Ma Shiying, the governor of Caoyun, did not dare to have any other reaction except for the soldiers and horses of the headquarters to be on guard.

After the Qingzhou army passed through Fengyang Mansion, they directly camped in a new town about fifty miles away from Shouzhou, and blatantly cut off the retreat of Lu Jiude, the eunuch guarding Nanjing Town.

At present, Lu Jiude led the soldiers and horses of Dinan Zhili to defend Shouzhou and several surrounding cities, and the Huaiyang army led by Chen Liu and Gao Ke to the west. To the east is the Qingzhou army led by Ma Gang, and the front of the fifth battalion of the left is intertwined with each other.

"This Li Zhendong will not continue to go to the Shouzhou area, if the governor's judgment is correct, he must lead the troops to be stationed in the area of Shanyang, Huai'an Prefecture, and wait until the situation in Shouzhou changes, and the soldiers and horses led by the lieutenant Lu Jiude are annihilated, and he will lead the army south along the river. Take Nanjing directly and control the world's anointed land. ”

For Li Meng's next move, Ma Shiying, the governor of Caoyun, has a fairly accurate judgment, although Li Meng declared to the imperial court that he was going to the Shouzhou area to rescue, and the people of the world also looked at it like this, but in the current situation, Li Meng led the army to achieve the greatest benefits.

People who are clear about the situation and who are clear about the power will obviously make such a judgment for Li Meng. Ma Shiying is such a smart person. For Li Meng's movement, he still has a judgment:

"Although Li Meng, the chief soldier of Shandong, has ambitions. But it is still necessary to wait for the major events in Shouzhou to be decided before acting, which shows that this person still wants to be vain, and at present, the soldiers and horses of Nanzhili, the Shouzhou area is in a crisis and is unavailable, the new recruitment of the Zhenjiang army is not available, and the combined forces of Nanjing City and the governor here are still less than 20,000, and the only thing that can be counted on is the discussion of Shilin, the mouth of the people of the world. ”

Ma Shiying is a rare real person in the late Ming Dynasty, and he has the ability to talk about things, of course, he will not believe that a tyrant like Li Meng will be afraid of any criticism and condemnation with his conscience.

The reason why he made such a statement was simply because Li Meng's southward movement had to be justified in every step, and he should not act rashly, obviously because he wanted to seize it by the way, and he also had to take the initiative in public opinion.

In response to Li Mengdi's approach, he may be able to delay his actions through some methods, after all, the Ming Dynasty is still orthodox in the eyes of the world, and the civil and military generals in the Ming system, except for Li Meng, who was born out of nowhere, is unreasonable, and others still have to maintain this system.

Ma Shiying hopes that his actions can delay Li Meng's progress, and other local forces may be able to rearrange the reaction and work together to stop it.

In other words, Ma Shiying's purpose is to buy time, hoping that the situation can change, and he is very helpless, and everything he does is just counting on the so-called providence.

Since the beginning of the operation, the army led by Li Meng can be said to be smooth sailing, a scene that everyone is looking forward to, and the local government and the government have come to take refuge and support.

Originally, after Li Meng sent troops to Southern Province, Jiangnan Shilin was collectively silent, and the voice of the people was only the noise of the Shandong literary circle, saying that Li Meng's move was the first in loyalty and righteousness, and the move was unparalleled in the world.

The Donglin and Jiangnan parties, which have always criticized the government and commented on the world's figures, were silent, not daring to say a word or write a word.

In the peaceful season, when the so-called non-killing of scholars and doctors, these literati all spoke wantonly, did not put justice first, and focused on their sole selfish interests, attacked each other, and fought endlessly.

Zhang Pu organized the resumption of the society, known as the leader of Donglin, famous in the world, and could rely on the power of public opinion to lift Zhou Yanru into the cabinet and become an auxiliary, such a figure, when he was alive, Jiangnan scholars were all proud to be able to visit the door, and even called themselves Guolongmen after meeting.

But after Zhang Puheng's death, everyone knew that this sudden violent death had nothing to do with the cabinet auxiliary, but the Donglin celebrities who were not afraid of the powerful and dared to criticize the government and politics were all silent, no one dared to say a word, and even the funeral was presided over by Ma Shiying, who was relatively alienated from Donglin.

There is no other reason, Zhou Yanru is supplemented, the future of the career has to be spoken by this big man, no one wants to cause this trouble, the future of the career can still let these literati be like this, Li Meng's army went south, this is an unreasonable martial artist, with a sword in his hand, if he really adheres to the speech of loyalty and conscience, if the situation changes, these martial artists will directly kill people.

Therefore, the Shandong army went south, and the people of the world lost their voices, which also taught some people who had expectations for the so-called Shilin style a good lesson.

It's just that this situation is a little strange, the army is going south, and no one speaks when the world knows it, but it enters Nanzhili, getting closer and closer, and there are actually voices of opposition, which is really incomprehensible.

But this strange phenomenon is exactly what Governor Yan Jizu talked about to Li Meng that night, since he was born, there are ways to deal with it, Governor Yan Jizu no longer followed the brigade, accompanied by the Shandong Salt Gang and Lingshan Commercial Bank, and went directly to Nanjing with a large sum of gold and silver.

On November 16 of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, the Jiaozhou battalion was set up in the post station of Yutai County, Yanzhou Prefecture, three messengers frantically beat the horses to the door, the horses foamed at the mouth, obviously they had run out of strength, a messenger fell directly from the horse, the post man went to help, but heard the messenger shouting neighingly:

"Quickly change horses, 100,000 urgent, 100,000 urgent...... "Dead sauna day, everyone votes for monthly tickets, subscribes, and strives to come more tomorrow, thank you."
