"Li Jiucheng? Hmph, for the time being, let him be at ease for a while, if I govern the power of great victory and enter Denglai, do you say Geng Zhongming is on my side or on his side? Kong Youde gritted his teeth with a gloomy face and said, it was not because he was forced by Li Jiucheng to divide the troops and leave, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative to leave if he commanded the 8,000 men and horses of the headquarters as a deputy marshal.

However, although the soldiers and horses of Dongjiang Town were prosperous, occupying Denglai, they could not accommodate the two marshals, and at that time, under the leadership of Li Jiucheng, the Dongjiang soldiers and horses were like bamboos all the way, even Pozhou County, and even surrounded Laizhou, and successively defeated the main force of the attacking officers and troops.

But today, the situation is different, Li Jiucheng's previous exploits and advantages, have gradually suffered great losses with the repeated blows of the imperial court, and now, Dengzhou City has been surrounded and beaten for more than a month, and the soldiers and civilians in the city have successively had problems with both morale and grain and grass supplies, and naturally there are secret complaints against Li Jiucheng, and his prestige is also declining at the same time, this is Kong Youde's opportunity.

……

After gathering Kong Youde and the main force of the righteous army, the Liaodong army has no opponent in the area of Yanzhou Mansion, and the local garrison of the Ming army is not the enemy of this main force at all, after Kong Youde made up his mind to go east, the rebel army discussed and abandoned the redundant women and children and the old, weak, sick and disabled, after all, with so many people on the road immediately, the consumption of grain and grass is a big problem.

As for the cannon fodder during the siege, there are people in the territory of Shandong, and at that time, it is enough to directly catch many temporary drivers to send them to death, and the lives of people in troubled times are like gou, as long as they can live, who will worry about the safety of others? As for the fate of the people who were left behind, it was naturally extremely miserable.

The 13,000-man Liaodong Army, under the leadership of Kong Youde, supervised the advance of the rebel army for the rear team, and in order to prevent the exposure of the army, he also deliberately selected men and horses to cover around, after all, the eastward advance of Liukou and the eastward march of the army led by him, the degree of attention of the Ming army is not the same,

After the Liukou was streamlined, five or six departments were combined, and the total strength was still seventy or eighty thousand people, and the mighty all the way to the east, first captured Juye, Jining, and then besieged Yanzhou, the local soldiers and civilians in Yanzhou did not dare to stop, they could only ask for help from Qingzhou Mansion in the starry night, and Zhu Wannian, the prefect of Qingzhou Mansion who was sitting in the rear of the abbot grain road, immediately reported to Zhu Dadian, the governor of Shandong, but when he arrived at Denglai, Yanzhou Mansion had been captured by the Liukou army.

Then, Kong Youde left the righteous army Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong generals, one for the Jining general, one for the Yanzhou general, two Yanzhou Mansion, and then the main force of the army of 80,000, out of Yanzhou Mansion, under the cover of captured and original artillery, successively broke through Maoyang, Guanyang, Mengyin, and surrounded the Bauhinia Pass, for a time, the entire Shandong land as if suffered an earthquake, everyone was in danger, the rebellion of Denglai has not been completely quelled, although the official army occupies an absolute advantage, but want to capture Dengzhou, it will take several months, And then there was an army of hundreds of thousands of rogues, didn't this make it difficult for them to stand alone?

"It's ridiculous, Benfu wants to participate in the Henan Governor Lu Xiangsheng, as the prime minister of the five provinces to suppress bandits, he actually allowed the rogues from Henan and other places to enter Shandong, don't you hear that this official is ordered by the Holy Son of Heaven to encircle and suppress the rebellious here? At this moment, Li Jiucheng and other bandit leaders have been killed, seeing that the rebels will be pacified soon, so many rogues have appeared behind Benfu, if they are asked to break Qingzhou, how can this situation be cleaned up? After receiving the news that Zhu Wannian sent someone quickly, Zhu Dadian was about to go crazy.

"Lord Futai, now the ten general troops are besieging Dengzhou from all sides, the rebels are short of food and grass, and the internal chaos is due to Li Jiucheng's death, if the troops and horses are dispatched back to quell the chaos at this moment, I am afraid that the military horses in Dengzhou will be delayed again." The general soldier below is not as polite as before when he speaks, after all, whoever has been on the front line for a year is also like this, anxious and uneasy, and the most important thing is that he is about to win, but there is such an accident, who is comfortable?

"Benfu also knows that this matter is not trivial, but Qingzhou is my place to store grain, and the imperial court soldiers and horses are reinforced, and they will go here, if Qingzhou Mansion calls Liukou to break, wouldn't it make me Dengzhou put down the 60,000 troops in a dilemma?" Zhu Dadian said sadly, after all, once there is a change in Qingzhou Mansion, only the grain and grass stored in Dengzhou City and Laizhou City will only be enough for the army for ten days, and now the grain and grass hoarded in Qingzhou is about 300,000 stone grain and grass, which can support 100,000 soldiers and livestock for four months, if this part of the grain and grass is lost, it is impossible for the imperial court to send more grain and grass to support.

"My lord, why don't you send a town to guard Qingzhou, and then ask the local government to send additional labor to collect labor, transport it day and night, and reserve it in Laizhou." The clerk who accompanied the army proposed this seemingly feasible method, but he did not dare to say that he would mobilize a large army from the Dengzhou front line to go back to quell the rebellion, after all, the Dongjiang rebels still had more than 30,000 elites in the city, and once there were too many imperial soldiers and horses, it would be all over.

"What do you think?" Zhu Dadian couldn't make up his mind, after all, the back road was important, if he didn't send a large army to guard behind and lose Qingzhou, the so-called counterinsurgency army of the imperial court would collapse without a fight.

"The last general thinks that the high walls of Qingzhou Mansion are thick, and the rogues must not dare to touch it, otherwise they will not touch their heads under the Bauhinia Pass, just send a military horse, and it is foolproof to guard the smooth grain road along the way, I strongly send Huang Long, the chief military officer of Dongjiang Town, with 2,000 cavalry, which is enough to ensure the safety of the grain road." In these years, the struggle for merit is also exquisite, Huanglong and Guan Ningjun are not in agreement, and now seeing that Dengzhou is about to be broken, of course he has to be excluded, not to mention that his men and horses have almost lost in the counterinsurgency battle, so it doesn't matter if he offends him.

"Mr. Huang, what do you think?" Zhu Dadian saw that it was Wu Ting, the newly arrived chief military officer of Ningyuan of the Guanning Army, who was congenitally afraid of his soldiers and horses, and the Guanning Army had its own system, when he was a soldier in Tianjin, he belonged to a member of this system, and of course he had to maintain a few points.

"Let Lord Futai call the shots." Huang Long secretly hated and glanced at Wu Ting, but he had no better way, after Yuan Dudu killed Mao Wenlong, the seemingly powerful Dongjiang Town experienced three internal battles, and the result was that he died and walked, and now there are Li Jiucheng, Kong Youde, Chen and other rebellions, and the strength of Dongjiang Town is even weaker.

In the past, this powerful army that could compete with the Guanning Army in Liaodong has been able to compete with each other, but today, even Huanglong has to sadly find that they don't even have the qualifications to be the opponent of the Guanning Army.

"Then ask the chief officer to lead people to guard the grain road of the whole army, and I will allocate another 1,000 foot soldiers to guard the fortress and military posts along the way, and guard the flanks for the general army." Zhu Dadian has no good impression of Huanglong, after all, it was his subordinates who caused the chaos in Shandong this time, and when he and Shen Shikui and Mao Chenglu were fighting for the military power of Dongjiang Town, the mess caused by it has caused such serious consequences today, I am afraid that as soon as the counterinsurgency is over, this person will have to be dismissed and questioned, so one side is the strong Guan Ning Army, and the other side is the doomed Huanglong, and he doesn't need to think too much about it before choosing.

"The last general obeyed, and then went back to the camp to pack up the horses." Huang Long didn't want to stay for a long time, anyway, the people here were either the generals of the Guan Ning Army who targeted him, or the chief military officer who chose to watch the play neutrally, no one was willing to help him such a doomed chief military officer, so why bother to be bored here.

"Then let's continue to discuss how to capture Dengzhou, although this eastward rogue is not a big threat, it is always a hidden danger." When Zhu Dadian saw him go out, he immediately said loudly......

"This is the so-called official army that fought in Henan, and you couldn't defeat the army? It's useless. Kong Youde looked at the main force of the Ming army that collapsed on the battlefield, and laughed, this is near the Bauhinia Pass, followed by Sun Chuanting's 7,000 soldiers and horses, with Shanxi General Soldier Wang Jixun as the vanguard officer, all the way to pursue the Liukou here, but unfortunately it happened to hit Kong Youde's main force, this moment, these Ming troops who showed off their might in front of the Liukou were suddenly attacked head-on, not to mention that the three thousand Dongjiang Town Iron Cavalry had not yet started, it was these selected Liukou main forces, and they could fight against Sun Chuanting's soldiers and horses.

"I'm in the middle of the plan, I don't have a word to see Your Majesty." Wang Jixun looked at the collapsed Ming soldiers in despair, he didn't understand, where did this an elite cavalry appear, only one round, it defeated the elite he arranged on the flank to be responsible for cover, it was a full thousand foot soldiers, and it collapsed without blocking it in one round.

And now, the entire army has completely collapsed, the Ming army cannot have a chance to turn defeat into victory, the Qingshui camp has been lost, Sun Chuanting's eastward advance has also been contained, only 3,000 men and horses are left, he is absolutely impossible to win the battle with this army again, Shandong is finished! The court is over!

"The criminal minister Wang Jixun will go first~!" All the way from Shanxi to Henan, and then re-officer to deputy general, and finally became the chief military officer of Shanxi Wang Jixun, in the defeat and despair of suicide to death, he really found it difficult to accept this huge contrast, but he did not understand until his death, why among the rogues, there has always been such an elite main cavalry, if they had come out earlier, Henan's officers and troops were not their opponents!

"Take advantage of the victory to take the Bauhinia Pass, march into Qingzhou, take millions of military rations from the imperial court for your own use, and occupy Shandong, just around the corner!" Kong Youde laughed, and beside him, the leaders of the rebel army bowed their heads in obedience...... (To be continued.) )
