Chapter 482: Liu Zeqing



After two days on the road, I finally arrived in Texas.

Dezhou is the real gateway of Shandong, located at the junction of Shandong and Gyeonggi on the Grand Canal, with Tianjin Weihe Jingcheng Qiandaizi Changlu Salt Field in the north and the main grain producing area in northern Shandong in the south. In the east, there are two military towns of Dengzhou and Laizhou. To the south, there is the Lunan Mountains. With the advantage of the canal and the convenient transportation between the north and the south, Dezhou is already the second largest city in Shandong, and the army is stationed there, and the weather is very strict.

Strictly speaking, Shandong is much larger than the Hebei region in terms of population and products

。 However, after the Denglai Rebellion in the early years, now there is the scourge of Jiannu, except for the area near the Grand Canal, the rest of the place has been dilapidated, and the people also have vegetables, and their spirit is very poor.

Looking at the hazy weather, there is quite a post-apocalyptic scene.

I walked such a long way on the road and didn't see many people. Sun Yuan was strange in his heart, and when he inquired, he learned that since Jiannu Yuetuo entered Shandong, he had plundered very much, and he had been slashed by the old and weak, and the young and strong and the women were directly arrested and enriched into the camp, ready to be brought back to Liaodong as slaves in the future.

It was precisely because of the tyranny of Jiannu that the people of Shandong fled south into Mount Tai and the Lunan Mountains.

Seeing this depressed scene, Sun Yuanjian's joy in the heart of the emperor suddenly disappeared, according to him, in the eleventh year of Chongzhen, Jiannu invaded south, and Dorgon's left wing army captured a total of 257,000 people ago; Yueto's right-wing army captured a population of 204,000.

Among the more than 400,000 people, the vast majority are from Shandong.

Coupled with the 110,000 in the massacre of Jinan, and the old and weak and corrupt Confucians who died in this unprecedented catastrophe, Sun Yuan estimated that it was at least one million or more.

It was from this war that Shandong has not been able to recover in the next few decades.

At the end of the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, Li Zicheng entered Beijing, and when Jiannu entered the battle of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen issued a holy decree to order Liu Zeqing, the general soldier of Shandong, to lead the army to King Qin. As a result, the birdman not only did not send troops, but fled south directly to Jiangsu with the whole army. Except that this man is really despicable and cowardly as a mouse. is also because Shandong is too dilapidated to raise so many soldiers. So, this despicable warlord simply fled south to eat his soldiers.

Outside the city are full of Ming military camp tents, and the banners of each battalion are also varied, in addition to Guanning and Xuanda, there are more miscellaneous cards from all over Shandong. Twenty miles of joint ventures, it looks quite majestic on the surface, but the real combat effectiveness, the ghost knows.

The walls of Texas are high and thick, and there are so many soldiers stationed there, and Jiannu is too lazy to attack this fortified city, and the people's hearts are stable.

The Chinese army that relieved the siege of Jinan was located in the Zhizhou Yamen in the city.

After entering the city with the letter, the first thing Liu Yuliang and Sun Yuan did was to go to the post house to settle down. But both of them love to be clean, and when they think of the dirty mess of the imperial court post house in this era, they all have a headache. Since Chongzhen's early years of abolishing post stations in remote areas and greatly reducing the cost of communication systems in various places, post stations around the country are simply called flower nests, and washing the back once a year is considered the conscience of the industry

After thinking about it, the two decided to go to the inn for one night first. Wait until the end of the Texas military conference and return to the old camp as soon as possible.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard a rumbling sound of horses' hooves, and someone shouted: "But Liu Xiang and General Sun Yuan." ”

Liu Sun and the others looked up, and they saw a five-short, black and strong general galloping with a few horses, and then jumped off the horse like a spinning top, and bowed directly in front of Liu Yuliang: "Liu Zeqing, the lowly Shandong commander-in-chief, knocked on Liu Gelao." ”

As soon as he heard that it was Liu Zeqing, Sun Yuan suddenly came to his senses, this is a historical celebrity! Although the war failed, this person was the second most powerful warlord among the four towns in Jiangbei during the Southern Ming Dynasty. It is also because of the support of Liu Zeqing and others that Emperor Hongguang can stand out among the candidates and become a treasure.

It is also because of this person that when the Qing Dynasty army went south to attack the Hongguang small court, he did not let go of an arrow, and directly abandoned the army and fled to the sea for refuge, which is why there is a painful history of the Southern Ming Dynasty later.

No matter how you look at it, it's a waste.

This man can't fight, but he is handy at brutalizing the people, his heart is as cold as iron, and he is a villain and scum.

However, Liu Zeqing in front of him has a lot of skill in currying favor with people. After Liu Yuliang gave him a hand, he got up, and then held Sun Yuan's hand and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it is the commander of the world's first iron army, Zhang Fei Sun Taichu, when I saw it today, it was really a dragon and a tiger, just like Guan Erye in the temple." Looking at you more at the beginning, Liu felt that his whole body was hot, and his strength had increased a little, so he couldn't wait to immediately carry a knife to fight with Jiannu. ”

It is said that Liu Zeqing is the general soldier of Shandong, and Sun Yuan is just a small general, and the identities of the two are very different, and he has no reason to please Sun Yuan.

But Liu Zeqing thought about this matter clearly, although he didn't know about Sun Yuanjian's affairs in the emperor's heart. But after Liu Yuliang, a dignified scholar of Dongge University, received the Holy Decree, he stayed in the Ningxiang Army and refused to move for a moment. This shows that Sun Taichu and Liu Ge Lao have a special relationship, and they are first-class cronies in Liu Xiang's heart. Now, Liu Xianggang has won a great victory in Botou, which has a very heavy weight in the emperor's heart, and it will be another Yang Sichang in the future. To please Sun Yuan is to please Liu Xiang.

Therefore, he didn't care about any decency, he turned it in, and called it affectionately one by one.

Sun Yuan was shaken by his chubby slippery hand, and goosebumps all over his body appeared, and he hurriedly shook it off, and said lightly: "General Liu has a good reputation, and the last general can't afford it."

。 The chief military officer compared Sun Yuan to Guan Yu, did he mean that he was going to leave Maicheng at the end? ”

This is already greatly unkind.

Liu Yuliang is an old man, so he naturally knows that Sun Yuan is very dissatisfied with this Liu Zeqing.

Old Liu Tou didn't have any prejudices against Liu Zeqing, but since Sun Yuan wanted to rectify Liu Zongbing, he didn't care, so he said: "Indeed, this is depressing and extremely inappropriate. ”

The face of a young man in his early twenties behind Liu Zeqing changed, and he roared in his throat: "Presumptuous!" ”

"Bastard, Lao Tzu is talking to Liu Xiang and General Sun, and you have to open your mouth, get out!" Liu Zeqing shouted at the young man.

The man stepped aside angrily.

Liu Zeqing smiled again: "Ge Lao, don't blame Taichu, the dog is young and ignorant, and the family law will not spare him after he goes back." ”

After saying good things for a long time, Sun Yuan realized that this young man in his early twenties was Liu Chun, the eldest son of Liu Zeqing, who was now serving as a guerrilla general in the Shandong Army and was the future successor of Liu Bu.

After speaking, Liu Zeqing waved his hand again, and an entourage immediately sent two gift slips, one for Liu Yuliang and the other for Sun Yuan.

Sun Yuan didn't care about someone giving him a gift, and accepted it honestly and unceremoniously.

Liu Ge got a lot of Sun Yuan's property, and he couldn't look down on ordinary objects, so he threw them to Sui Hu without looking at them, saying that he had received Liu Zeqing's intentions, and then asked Liu Zeqing how he knew that he had entered the city, and what was the matter?

Liu Zeqing hurriedly said: "When Elder Ge and General Sun entered the city before, a son had already come to report and came to greet him. ”

He also said that he had a house in the city, and asked the old man Sun Yuan to give him a face, and live with him temporarily.

The officers of the Ming Dynasty were notoriously wealthy, and the mansion of the chief military officer of a province was naturally good. Liu Yuliang and Sun Yuan were naturally very willing, and asked if the other adults and generals were also there?

Liu Zeqing replied that the state government now lives in the general system of Hong, and Gonggong Gao lives in the barracks, which is more than 30 miles away from Dezhou City, and he will not arrive until noon tomorrow. As for the other generals who have not yet been settled, most of them will be taken back to their homes by him to live temporarily. Hong Chengchou said that tomorrow at noon, the account will be raised to discuss how to solve the siege of Jinan and military affairs

He also said: "Ge Lao and General Sun don't worry, it's not boasting, the last general's house is very big, and it can basically be done with one person and one courtyard, and there will be no idle people to disturb it." ”

When they arrived at the ground, Sun Yuan and Liu Ge knew that what Liu Zeqing said was true, big, it was really very big, and this was a park for future generations. Covering an area of at least 50 acres or more, pavilions and pavilions, moving scenery, using the Jiangnan garden system.

It is said that Liu Zeqing also has a house of the same size in several other big cities in Shandong, and he is really rich.

Liu Zeqing also lived in the house of several generals of various armies, and when they heard that Liu Ge Lao and the famous Sun Yuan had entered Liu's mansion, they came to meet them one after another. Liu Zeqing was good at dancing with long sleeves, and was busy renovating a table of wine banquets to entertain everyone.

He was very good at talking, and when he saw someone, he lowered his posture, and unconsciously, Sun Yuan's perception of this person was better.

……

At the beginning of Liu Zeqing's mansion, at this moment, in the big tent of the Guanning Army, thirty miles away, he sat there with a high dive, holding a Qi sword coin from the Warring States period in his hand.

Ever since Lu Xiangsheng died on the battlefield and the Tianxiong Army was completely annihilated, he had a feeling of impending a catastrophe. His temper is also getting worse day by day, and these days, almost everyone of the little eunuchs who follow him has been whipped by him.

Lu Xiangsheng disagreed with him, and Yang Yanlin was even more humiliated with him. The destruction of the Tianxiong army was a happy thing at first sight. But Gao Qiqian knew through his own channels that the emperor was extremely dissatisfied with him, and there was an undercurrent of accountability in the court: "The Tianxiong army is in the same vein, Sun Yuan of Ningxiang won a battle, and the commander Lu Jiandou even died in his own life." Such an army, such a commander and a general who charges into battle, is not rewarded for his merits on weekdays, but is subject to many constraints, and he can't even eat enough. On the contrary, it was the strong Guanning army, which was crushed at the first touch of the enemy, and dispersed as soon as it was defeated. The imperial court gives them so much military pay every year, you must always have some decent achievements to be reasonable, right? ”

"Even if you don't have a record, it's okay to bleed a few people, right?"

"However, no matter how many people are dead, the level of the official position of the dead people, or the size of the battle record, the Tianxiong department is two streets away from Guanning."

"It seems that there must be something wrong with the commander. If a pig is the commander, even if his subordinates are all tigers, his mother will become waste. ”
