Chapter 369: The Calm Before the Storm

There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the greatest, Li Meng said that he has no father and no mother, although every time he talks about this, there is always a lot of bitterness in his heart.

But the so-called heavenly family affairs are selfless, Li Meng has no descendants, and the inheritance of blood is not prosperous, but it is equivalent to the future of this Jiaozhou camp.

After Yan Ruoran had a son, the centripetal force of the Jiaozhou battalion immediately increased a lot, and everyone saw who they and their children and grandchildren should be loyal to ten years and decades later, but some people were vaguely worried that if it was just such a single seedling, it would inevitably be risky.

Mu Yunyao was happy, whether it was a man or a woman, she finally dispelled her worries. As a result, in Shandong, Li Meng was naturally overjoyed, and the rest of the people were also overjoyed.

The day after Zhou Yang suggested that the identity of the Tuntian military household be changed from the original semi-serf to a free man, Jinan City knew about the matter of the General Military Mansion.

Na Langzhong is a very famous doctor, his judgment is believed by everyone, for a time from top to bottom, everyone congratulated, making the atmosphere very lively, if it were not for Li Meng to give a death order, saying that the government affairs of the military and civilian places are busy, I am afraid that people from all over the place will have to rush over in person.

Even so, those who congratulate, those who give gifts, and those who take the opportunity to curry favor with those who are close, there are a lot of people, and as a result, in August, the biggest and most known thing in the whole Shandong is this, Zhou Yang's so-called "Tuntian Military Household Change Policy". This far-reaching, almost revolutionary reform has been overlooked.

This is also an interesting anecdote in Shandong, and it was also written into the notes in the future......

Ma Shiying took office as the governor of Caoyun, and also served as the governor of Fengyang, integrating soldiers and horses on the spot, this Ma Shiying is really capable, originally Shouzhou and Yingshang have been called Nanzhuxian Town, although this name is very unlucky. In the entire Nanzhili, especially in Fengyang Mansion, Luzhou Mansion, and Anqing Mansion, the displaced people and some green forest figures who could not understand the situation were in chaos.

The government has no power to suppress the first thing, and the second is that many government figures are at both ends of the first rat, ready to wait and see, but Ma Shiying has only been in office for about ten days, and the surroundings of Fengyang are a lot quieter, but this Ma Shiying knows the governor of Caoyun and the governor of Fengyang. The most important thing is to keep the land gateway of Nanzhili, as well as to guard the Fengyang Imperial Mausoleum.

After the integration in his hands, he was only more than 7,000 soldiers and horses, but he was stationed in the Fengyang area, and he would never go out lightly. The Nanjing garrison of Wei Guogong had a similar attitude, and he also gathered troops and horses around Nanjing, and at the same time constantly sent envoys to supervise the recruitment of troops in Zhenjiang.

The soldiers and horses led by Lu Jiude, the current eunuch of Nanjing, and the five battalions of the left of the revolution formed a balance of power in the Shouzhou area. There are constant small battles with each other, but no one can take much advantage.

The other Ming soldiers and horses have their own range of guarding the land and can't move.

In the area of Weishan Lake, the spies in the camp and Cao Cao's camp. A large number of newly built ships were launched, and a large number of troops and horses were mobilized on the shore. 、

Based on the current mobilization of soldiers and horses in Shandong, if it is said that a large number of soldiers and horses have been mobilized in the Caoyun water system in the Jining area, the ships have been launched. There is only one goal to point, and that is Henan.

According to the previous judgment, it must have taken a boat down Xuzhou, and then entered the Yellow River and went upstream. The spies who got this judgment knew that the stakes were very high, and no one dared to delay, even if they ran away from the horse, they did not hesitate to send the letter directly in the direction of Kaifeng, Henan.

Around the Mid-Autumn Festival. The officials and people in Kaifeng City finally breathed a sigh of relief, and they began to march towards the south in the camp of displaced people thirty miles west of Kaifeng City.

Since Niu Jinxing made Shandong want to shrink, he only thought about preserving the peace and strength of one side, and saw the behavior of Shandong soldiers and horses before and after the battle in Zhuxian Town. Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, didn't want to fight with Shandong, instead of looking for trouble and losing strength, it was better to develop silently first.

When your strength grows to a certain extent, many things can be solved naturally. As for Luo Rucai, he was robbing everywhere. The idea of living comfortably is the so-called rampant world. Don't stick to one side, and don't want to provoke.

And since the spy in Kaifeng City sent the letter, the rift between the two sides has become bigger and bigger, and now both Li and Luo don't want to fight any tough battles, for fear that they will cause unnecessary trouble when fighting.

Going south to completely sweep away Runing Mansion and Nanyang Mansion, the two sides still have a consensus on this.

Although the messenger who was caught was tortured by breaking into the camp, he admitted that he was a dead soldier sent by Gao Mingheng of Henan Patrol, just to separate the camp from Cao Cao's camp, so he wrote this letter, and after giving this explanation, Luo Rucai and the thirteen Taibao below accepted it with a smile.

And said very contriguously that he was almost deceived by the traitors sent by the officers and soldiers, which hurt the brother's harmony, but he observed something on the side of the camp.

Since that night, Cao Cao's camp has been guarded by Cao Cao's inner camp every day, and the distance between the two camps is getting farther and farther, and the mind of guarding against each other is getting heavier and heavier.

Emperor Chongzhen hesitated to give Shandong an order, originally did not report any hope, but did not expect Shandong to really react, Yanzhou army gathered and the edge of the waterway, Dafa boats, a pair of about to go upstream, about to fight with the camp, but really scared off the army of the king.

To fight with the army of millions of displaced people in Henan, Li Meng couldn't draw so much strength for the time being. So just took a gesture.

A few months ago, the Lingshan Commercial Bank and the Jiaozhou Battalion's Ordnance Manufacturing Bureau placed a large order in Jining Prefecture to buy ships and build ships.

Even the ship merchants in Nanzhili and even Zhejiang rushed over, and even the Zheng family of the Bafu Commercial Bank wanted to intervene and make some profits.

With the gradual submission of the wealthy families in Jining Prefecture everywhere, the Yanzhou army can gradually vacate its hands, and the local armed Yanding and Tuntian Grange's village guards are enough to maintain the situation, and they should be close to the waterway to facilitate their actions at any time.

Counting the ships and concentrating the troops was an order from within the Jiaozhou battalion, and in the eyes of outsiders, this was a precursor to the imminent movement of the large forces of the Jiaozhou battalion. 、

Moreover, the army of the Jiaozhou battalion has always done a very good job of blocking news and blocking intelligence, and it is difficult for non-insiders to get close to see what is going on, and the spies everywhere have seen so many ships and so many soldiers and horses moving, combined with the movements everywhere, they naturally come to their own conclusions.

This is also the Jiaozhou battalion's suspicious tactics, while doing these actions, Li Meng also sent a messenger in a big way, through his own channels to the camp sent a message, half discussed, half warned that he hoped that the camp would abide by the second agreement between the two sides, and the army of the Jiaozhou battalion was ready to go.

There are verbal threats and practical actions, which are enough to deter the camp, not to mention that the peasant army is naturally ordered to retreat from the army in that situation of internal and external troubles.

The mood of the officials and people in Kaifeng City can be described as crying with joy, Kaifeng City is safe, this is really where God blesses, but for the governor Hou Sui on the north bank, this is not worth being happy about, Kaifeng's relief is just a few days of temporary relaxation.

The area on the south bank of the Yellow River in Henan is already within the scope of the strength of the camp, the capital city of Runing Prefecture and some prefectures and counties are in the hands of officers and soldiers, and Nanyang Mansion has recently recovered some territory, but these places are not sparks, but the remnants of the army of displaced people who are about to be extinguished.

Governor Hou Sui went to the imperial court several times, and said bluntly that it was better to abandon the south bank of the Yellow River and use forces to arrange the defense of other places in such a situation.

But this kind of negative surrender remarks were rejected by the imperial court, and Emperor Chongzhen was furious, saying that you led the imperial court soldiers and horses out of the customs, and the task was to suppress the thieves and quell the chaos.

In the history without Li Meng, the imperial court discussed Hou Sui's suggestion for a long time, and finally actually acquiesced to Hou Sui's suggestion, but now, Shandong is willing to send troops to rescue, giving many people in the court confidence and making them feel that the situation has not yet reached the point of despair.

The soldiers and horses of the Jinan battalion and the troops stationed in the south of the city have begun to move towards Jining, and the main road of the army's action is ready to be deployed.

Li Meng's response is to wait for the situation in Nanzhili and the situation in Henan to be determined, and he can't leave Jinan yet, so as not to be able to calm down and wait for the so-called game of chess in the world and the last empty joke that day, which is also a manifestation of growth.

It is said that it is a policy for the civilian status of the military families of Tuntian, and this statement has been conveyed in the troops and the Tuntian Grange, and the result is that the morale of the people is almost boiling, and the centripetal force is really rising.

And what Li Meng is doing so far is to be in front of Mu Yunyao, and before going to battle, find time to accompany her as much as possible......

"Big brother, do you say the child will be a boy or a girl...... What's your name......

The boudoir whispered, and Li Meng and Mu Yunyao's faces were full of happiness.
