Zhou Billy entered the military tent and talked with Kong Youde for a while, and then went straight to the point, he said with a smile: "You are also from Dongjiang Town, and you have not had a good time in Denglai in the past few years. ”

Kong Youde listened to Zhou Billy's words, his face changed slightly, he glanced at Li Jiucheng and Geng Zhongming beside him, and then smiled bitterly: "Since Mr. said so, my old Kong will not hide it." From the moment Mao Shuai was killed by Yuan Manzi, the hearts of the people in Dongjiang Town were scattered. We came to Denglai to join Governor Sun, not to find a way to live for our brothers. But I've been here for a few years, what kind of life we've had in Denlai.

That is, Governor Sun can still take care of us, but after this incident, can Governor Sun still do this Denglai Governor to say both, if he really hangs the seal and leaves, will our Liao soldiers in Denglai still have a way to live? ”

Li Jiucheng next to him also said angrily: "My son has been fighting with Tartars with me since he was a teenager, and our grandfather has never frowned. But those Shandong soldiers actually attacked and killed my son. Anyway, I don't have any thoughts in my life, so I let it go. ”

After he finished speaking, tears came down, and Zhou Weifan next to him was blocked in his heart. Song Tao glanced at Zhou Weifan and laughed. Zhou Billy sighed and said: "It's not easy for the Liao people, I didn't expect your Liao soldiers to be so difficult." If there is a real disturbance this time, will the generals have a way out? ”

Kong Youde sighed, and said with a bitter face: "How can we have any way out, if our brother really reaches that point, we will have to ask Mr. to take him in at that time." ”

Zhou Billy smiled and said: "You are all from Dongjiang Town, how can the Far East sit idly by." If a few generals defect to our Far East, then I must first explain the charter of the Far East, so as to save a few generals from complaining that our Far East is not a good word. ”

When Kong Youde heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. They're just waiting for that. Kong Youde said with a smile: "Our brother is walking on thin ice now, maybe he can really get to that point." If you don't mind, sir, then tell us brother. ”

Billy Zhou nodded and said, "Defect to our Far East." The first step is to hand over the military power, and if you want to continue to lead the troops. I had to go to our Far Eastern military camp for training, and I had to start from the grassroots level. If you want to be a rich man, the Far East will give a few generals a sum of money, enough for you to spend your old age in peace and become a rich man. ”

Kong Youde felt a chill in his heart when he heard this, these two Far East did not meet what they thought in their hearts, and they would never choose these two paths until the last step.

Billy Zhou glanced at the three of them. I thought it was not surprising. He continued: "If the generals are not satisfied with these two items, then I will discuss with you today a solution. In my opinion, the situation of several generals is now worrying, and this step will have to be taken sooner or later. If you really have to wait until the day when the mountains and rivers are exhausted, I'm afraid it will be too late.

If you decide to go out of the Ming Dynasty and go north to Liaodong to cast Tartars, although it is a good policy, I still have to advise you that this step is better to take less. I have said that, we do not interfere in what you do in the Far East. If a few generals can trust my Far East, how about making a deal with my Far East? ”

Kong Youde listened to Zhou Billy's words. His eyes froze, and he said with a smile: "Then the gentleman will talk about this transaction." ”

Zhou Billy turned around, took a map from Song Tao's hand and threw it on the table. Pointing to several places in Southeast Asia, he said, "Look, these are the Champa states in the south of Annam, the island of Malay in the South Seas, and Siam. If there is no way out for several generals, why not choose to settle in these places, with more than 10,000 veterans of the Dongjiang Hundred Battles, and firearms and artillery, it is enough for you to gain a foothold in the South Seas.

If several generals have plans to settle in the South Seas, there is no need to worry about the long sea route, and the Far East is responsible for helping you transport troops and supplies. We have hundreds of ships in the Far East, spanning thousands of miles across the ocean. A few generals only need to be launched at Denlai. Raise a certain number of people for our Far East, and the deal will be done. ”

Kong Youde glanced at Li Jiucheng and Geng Zhongming. Then he smiled and said, "Sir, wait a minute, let our brothers discuss." ”

With that, he and the two of them left the tent. I went out to discuss. Song Tao looked at their backs and said in a deep voice: "Nanyang is so far away, can they go?" ”

Zhou Billy sneered: "If they still want to lead the troops, they can only go to Nanyang, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, they are free there, cast the Tartars in the north, and send people to live under the fence, how can they be a soil emperor." ”

Song Tao smiled: "Haha...... If they knew that our Far East still occupied Luzon, and that the South Seas would be our Far East's territory in the future, they would not know how hard it would be. ”

After a while, the three of them walked into the tent, and Kong Youde said with a smile: "Our brothers discussed it, and we will do what Mr. said." I just don't know what else Mr. has to explain. ”

Zhou Billy said with a smile: "What you have obtained in Denglai, whether it is gold, silver, jewelry, food and materials, and armor and firearms, we will not take a penny from the Far East. However, the lives of the people of the Ming Dynasty must not be harmed, and only the rich households and official mansions shall be used when looting assets, and ordinary people shall not be harassed. If a few generals can ensure that the above points are fulfilled, we in the Far East will strictly abide by our promise and send you to the South Seas. ”

Kong Youde and the others looked at each other, and Li Jiucheng said in a deep voice: "If we get on your ship and you don't keep your promises, won't we let you slaughter at that time." ”

Billy Zhou sneered and said, "Hmph...... If the Far East wants to destroy you, it will be easy. We will do it ourselves when we go ashore to plunder the people, but it is just the legacy of our ancestors, and we will never be able to destroy the Central Plains Shenzhou, if it is not so, how can you do such a good thing. Several generals, in the transaction, it is not allowed to kill ordinary people in the Ming Dynasty, but it is not a joke, once it is found that the Liao soldiers killed innocent people, you know the consequences. ”

Kong Youde and they believed what Zhou Billy said, the Far East saved more than 100,000 Liao people back then, and the grain and silver alone went to the sea. But they were a little stupid when they heard the latter sentence, and Li Jiucheng said hurriedly: "According to what Mr. said, how can this battle be fought, which gentry and rich family's Zhuangzi is not a high-walled earthen fort, how can it be attacked without killing people." ”

Zhou Billy said with a smile: "How can there be any fort in the homes of ordinary people, if you kick in the door to drive people out, do you still have to use a knife?" As for the gentry and rich households, you can just bombard them, and I am talking about not killing ordinary people without permission. ”

Kong Youde and they listened to Billy Zhou's words, and if they didn't understand it, they would be stupid. Only then did they put their minds at ease, what did those turtles rob in their homes, and didn't their wealth and food be in those big households?

Speaking of which, the two sides can be regarded as having reached an agreement. Zhou Billy didn't plan to stay here longer, and after a few words of greeting with the three of them, he was ready to say goodbye, Song Tao had already used a walkie-talkie to contact the helicopter, and a few people got on the plane and left.

Li Jiucheng looked at the helicopter that disappeared quickly, and said worriedly: "They won't lie to us, if we board their ship, then we will really become meat on their boards." ”

Geng Zhongming shook his head and said: "The strength of the Far East is not something we can speculate, and I estimate that the Tartars will not be able to jump for a few years." Far East's mind is big, and the world of the Ming Dynasty will be ...... Hehe......"

Two days later, the Liao soldiers of Denglai divided their troops into two roads, and attacked the two prefectures of Denglai, and the Liao soldiers in the city should open the city gate for the inside, and the rebels broke through Dengzhou and Laizhou, and obtained 5,000 horses, more than 200,000 silver, more than 30 Hongyi cannons, and more than 600 Western artillery, and the rest of the firearms, food, and armor are innumerable, all of which are thieves.

The rebels also captured the warships anchored in the inner harbor of Dengju Suseong, including 40 warships that had been gifted to Sun Won-hwa by the Joseon king not long ago.

Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai, Zhu Wannian, the governor of Laizhou, Zhang Keda, the general soldier of Dengzhou, as well as Wang Daochun, Song Guanglan, Wang Zheng, Zhang Tao and others were all captured by the rebels in a hurry.

Sun Yuanhua was the initiator of the strategy of "defending the Liao land with the Liao people", and he attached great importance to the locals of Liaodong, so that a large number of former Mao Wenlong's subordinates took refuge in him in a desperate situation, and recruited more than 10,000 elite and brave Liaodong soldiers.

After Kong Youde and the others broke the two cities of Denglai, the Liao troops stationed in various parts of Denglai responded one after another, and used the captured governor's Guan Fang to take out a large amount of silver from the state and county salaries to recruit other rebels, and cooperated with the rebels in various places, connecting Huang County, Ye County, Pingdu, Changyi, Laiyang, Zhaoyuan and other counties, and the magistrates, counties, garrisons, and generals were killed one after another.

The Liao soldiers and naval forces on the coastal islands of Denglai also attacked the garrisons of the islands, including Changshan Temple Island, Shamen Island, Xiaozhu Island, Daheishan Island, Muji Island, Furong Island, and Datian Island. Hundreds of warships and countless artillery armor were captured.

A large number of gentry and wealthy families in Denglai and Zhuangzi were sacked by the rebels, and they were killed and wounded. The rebels also drove the ordinary people of the two provinces to the shore of Dengzhou with ropes tied in strings, crying and shaking the sky along the way, which was unbearable to see.

The hastily staged mutiny in history cannot be compared with the Denglai Mutiny. This time, Kong Youde, Li Jiucheng, Geng Zhongming, Chen Guangfu, and others conspired for several days to contact the Liao troops stationed in various parts of Denglai.

Because the rebels moved quickly, it had been a few days since Yu Dacheng, the governor of Shandong, received the news, and the first thing he did was to send people to Denglai to pacify the Liao army who had launched the mutiny, and met with Kong Youde and them, and strongly persuaded the Liao soldiers to end the mutiny. Kong Youde and his colleagues also sent a letter to Governor Yu Dacheng, weeping bitterly and pouring bitter water, saying that it was a capital crime for him to launch a mutiny, and promised to agree to end the mutiny as long as the living conditions of the Liao soldiers were improved.

On the one hand, the rebels fought with Yu Dacheng and the snake, and on the other hand, they hurried to plunder the gentry and wealthy families in Denglai and Denglai, and at the same time drove the displaced people to the coast of Dengzhou. At this time, the garrison of Shandong had been routed by the rebels, and they either fled or joined the thieves.

To the east of Dengzhou, there are coastal defense posts such as Ninghai, Wendeng, and Haiyang, and there are a large number of guards stationed there, but most of them are hard pressed by military households, afraid of the enemy like tigers, and dare not attack the rebels, and it is difficult to even protect themselves, so how can they have the courage to attack the rebels.
