Chapter 222: Qingzhou Staff General Li Shiyuan

Shocked by the military appearance of the Daishan army, the people who came stood and bowed from a distance after going up to the stern. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Li Shiyuan, a general in Qingzhou, has seen a general! I don't know where the general's name is and where he is stationed? ”

It turned out that it was the rebel leader Li Shiyuan who came in person. Eh, it can't be said that he is a traitor, he is a traitor of the Dashun Army, but he is a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty. But his official position, the general of Daming Qingzhou? But it is one level higher than his own coastal defense guerrilla, Ren Siqi couldn't help but laugh dumbly, Shandong has already fallen, and he is probably a self-appointed general, or it is the "King of Ji".

"General Li doesn't have to be polite, this general is Ren Siqi, a coastal defense guerrilla, stationed in Cen Port, Zhoushan. Now Hongguang Tianzi ascended the throne, I was ordered by the imperial court to patrol the Ming coast, and came to Shandong, one is to check the situation in the north, and then I heard that Shandong has sent elite soldiers, and I want to recruit some soldiers. ”

Ren Siqi said his intention in a few words, of course, he told a small lie, he came here completely for his own meaning, but it has nothing to do with the Nanjing Imperial Court.

"Has the new emperor ascended the throne?" Li Shiyuan was overjoyed when he heard this, "This is really great news, I hope that the imperial court will go north as soon as possible and restore my old land of the Ming Dynasty." ”

King Fu ascended the throne and became the son of Hongguang, but in the Nanjing court, I am afraid that from the emperor to the ministers, few people thought of sending troops north. Because in Ren Siqi's memory, there seems to be no history of the Northern Expedition of the Southern Ming Army.

Of course, Ren Siqi can't say that, after all, there are still many people in the north who want to be Ming.

"In the lower officials, I don't know much about the major affairs of the imperial court, but the new emperor ascends the throne, assisted by virtuous ministers and good generals, and will definitely send troops to the north soon."

"Looking at the prosperity of the general's army, it is worthy of being the elite army of my Ming Dynasty, and there must be a position of general in the army of the Northern Expedition of Japan!" Li Shiyuan had no consciousness of participating in the general at all, and praised Ren Siqi.

Ren Siqi also voted for Li Baotao, and praised Li Shiyuan's behavior of capturing thieves and returning to the Ming Dynasty and serving the country loyally, and the two praised each other, looked at each other and laughed.

"General Ren, there is a reluctant request below, and I hope the general will be fulfilled!" After greeting for a while, Li Shiyuan hugged his fists and bowed again.

"General Li Shen should not be polite, if you have any requirements, just say it, as long as I can do it, I will do it!" Ren Siqi picked up Li Shiyuan with both hands and agreed. Looking at Li Shiyuan's shabby appearance, life must not be good, at most he asked himself to help him with some food.

The Daishan army went north at this time, bought a lot of grain, and more than 20 sailing ships loaded a full 2,000 quintals of grain, and it was not a big deal to give him 100 quintals. And if he wants to recruit homeless people, he can't do without the help of this local snake.

"Presumably General Ren also knows my current situation, and he is not afraid of your jokes, four or five thousand people were blocked by thieves on Laoshan Mountain, and they couldn't move. There are still tens of thousands of our Ming people on the mountain waiting to be fed, and people are starving to death every day, but the last general is incompetent, unable to defeat the thieves entrenched in Jiaozhou City, and unable to save my Ming people from fire and water.

General Ren's subordinates are at their peak and their morale is high, and I hope to be able to help me defeat the thieves and recapture Jiaozhou! ”

Unexpectedly, Li Shiyuan didn't mention the matter of food, but asked Ren Siqi to send troops to help him defeat the Dashun army in Jiaozhou City.

"But I'm all a water army, and the number is only hundreds, I'm afraid I have more than enough heart and not enough power." Ren Siqi is embarrassed, although he said that he had just broken thousands of pirates with hundreds of soldiers in Daishan, but they were pirates, and the leaders of the pirates were all undercover agents sent by themselves, how could they be compared with the famous innovator army, Ren Siqi did not have the confidence to defeat the intrusive army in Jiaozhou City with these hundreds of people.

Besides, even if he can win, his side will definitely suffer heavy casualties, which is not what Ren Siqi wants to see.

Hearing Ren Siqi say this, Li Shiyuan's face showed a look of disappointment. In order to seek fate, he desperately praised Ren Siqi.

Maybe I should have thought about it a long time ago, when did the army of the imperial court count on them, and the remnants of the people did it to save the people from fire and water? If the officials and soldiers can count on it, Daming will not fall into the situation in front of him! Li Shiyuan said secretly in his heart.

Looking at Li Shiyuan's face, of course Ren Siqi understood what he was thinking, but Ren Siqi knew that he couldn't do anything, his ability was still small, and he couldn't be a savior!

"General Li just said that there are tens of thousands of people in Laoshan, why don't you organize them and integrate them into the army, so afraid of more than 2,000 thieves?" Li Shiyuan's expression was gloomy, and when he was about to leave, Ren Siqi's words sounded in his ears.

"Of course I want to integrate them into the army, but what's the use of being integrated into the army without food, people are too hungry to walk, how can they fight with the thieves?" Li Shiyuan stopped and sighed. The guerrilla general on the other side was brightly dressed, and he didn't know what kind of way he went, he became a general in his twenties, and how much ability he could have, which made Li Shiyuan even more desperate for the imperial court.

But the next moment, Ren Siqi's words came to his ears like a heavenly sound.

"You don't have food, but I do!"

"What did you say?" Li Shiyuan Huo Ran turned around, his eyes staring at Ren Siqi like copper bells.

Seeing Li Shiyuan's appearance, Xiong Er, who was standing behind Ren Siqi, was furious and rushed over to push Li Shiyuan.

Ren Siqi stopped Xiong Er from drinking, looked at Li Shiyuan, and burst out of his mouth word by word: "I said I have food!" Is 1,000 stone enough? ”

A thousand stones! Li Shiyuan's eyes widened suddenly, although the amount was not too much, he could save enough food to eat for all the homeless people on Laoshan Mountain for ten days.

But the problem is that with a thousand stone of food, he can organize an army of 10,000 people, for the sake of stuttering, let alone fighting the thieves, let them do anything.

One thousand stones of grain is enough for 10,000 people to eat for ten days, and with ten days, he will definitely be able to capture Jiaozhou, Li Shiyuan secretly calculated in his heart.

"General Ren's kindness is unforgettable!" Li Shiyuan bowed to the ground at Ren Siqi.

Two three-masted galleons slowly moved in the night in the direction of Laoshan Mountain to the north. Fortunately, it was a bright moonlit night, the bright moonlight was quietly sprinkled on the sea, the depth of the bay, and the guidance of local fishermen who were familiar with the sea conditions, it was not dangerous to run aground.

The naval army of the Dashun army had been routed by the Daishan army, and there were no ships to intercept it.

On the coast near Laoshan Mountain, the sailing ship lowered its iron anchor and stopped on the sea, and more than a dozen small boats rowed from the opposite shore, approaching two three-masted sailing ships before stopping.

Bags of grain were taken out of the hold and put into small boats in the sea. More than a dozen small boats came and went twice before the grain was delivered. The soldiers of the Jiaozhou Ming Army, who were responsible for transporting grain, stroked the grain bags, and breathed heavily and rapidly one by one. (To be continued.) )
