Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Arsonist

"This bastard, this bastard!"

In the palace of Yang Huizhuang in Tianjin, Kang Mazi looked at the pieces in his hand, and only half of his lips trembled and scolded. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Well, he has been waiting in Tianjin for more than half a month, but Yang Feng is like an unpunctual guest, in the waiting of the 180,000 army, he has not yet completed the less than 1,000 miles of sea, so that those boring Eight Banners, Green Battalion, and even many Mongolian cavalry who went south from outside the Guanwai to reinforce the elite, and the elite of the Eight Banners and Green Battalion transferred from Shanxi and other places, are so idle that they start to play the game of disturbing the people.

And what is that bastard doing?

Starting from the original Ninghai Prefecture, in the past half a month, he has broken through Ninghai, Fushan, Dengzhou, and Huang County, and the latest report on the fold he has just broken Ye County.

Wherever they pass are like locusts......

Of course, this is for the government and the gentry, as for those Diao people, they almost beat gongs and drums to welcome, in fact, according to the report, when the Huang County was broken, there were a large number of Diao people to help those Ming soldiers who climbed the city wall to help the ladder. Because every time Yang Feng went down to a county town, in addition to forcibly cutting his braids, and even he himself carried a big pair of scissors to do it door to door, without exception, as he did in Ninghai Prefecture, he opened all the official warehouses, and destroyed the stored grain, and even some other things that could not be taken away, in short, except for the gold, silver and jewelry that he could take away, the rest was all distributed to the local people.

Not only the government, but even some local gentry who had relatives who were officials in the imperial court were also poisoned by him.

This bastard is like he is tired of it, along the coastline of the Shandong Peninsula, county by county, playing this boring game, like an indulger, lighting a fire and patting the pi shares and leaving, but he is gone, the court has to wipe the pi shares for him, what about the people who have cut their braids? What about the Diao people who helped the Ming army attack the city? What about the poor who have been given food from the government? What about those baobao who took advantage of the fire to rob and kill some squires and banner men?

Pretend nothing happened?

It's impossible.

Caught up and cut off all the brains? But who will lead the neck and kill?

After this toss, the majesty of the imperial court has disappeared in these places, not to mention that the imperial army has no time to take care of these places, and the two places of Gyeonggi and eastern Zhejiang have attracted more than two-thirds of the army of the Qing Dynasty, how can they have the energy to entangle with the common people.

In fact, after Yang Feng left, all the officers and soldiers who returned to reoccupy those places had a tense relationship with the common people without exception, and when Yang Feng left, he also left behind a large number of knives, guns, bows and arrows, and all of them were Qing army standard weapons captured in eastern Zhejiang, especially bows and arrows, and even a small number of arquebuses. These were distributed to every household under the banner of the villagers' self-defense force, because the returning Qing army forcibly confiscated civilian property, and there were battles between armed villagers and officers and soldiers in Fushan.

Now it can be said that the entire northern coast of Shandong is completely out of the control of the imperial court, and even now the county order of Huang County has not dared to return to the county seat.

"Your Majesty, be relieved, no matter how much trouble the demon makes, he will eventually come to face my Eight Banners Army, and when the time comes, the minister will definitely capture this demon for Your Majesty."

Prince Kang, who is good at martial arts and has a good gun, said heroically.

"What Prince Kang said is extremely true, the demon's move can be seen that he is also afraid of His Majesty Tianwei and my Eight Banners elite soldiers, and now he is just cowering, looking for an excuse to escape to the south of the Yangtze River, the rebellion in Shandong is just a disease of scabies, and some Diao people are just instigated by it, once the Yang thief is defeated, he will send a general to lead the army to patrol and naturally calm down."

Xiong Cixu, who accompanied him, also said with a smile.

"Yes, our 180,000 elite army is here, why not be afraid of that demon, Huang Ama rest assured, that Yang demon does not land on the shore, if you dare to set foot on this big mouth, the son is not talented, I am willing to capture this demon and dedicate it to Huang Ama to avenge Prince Gong. Don't hide it from Huang Ama, Erchen invited a number of strange people during this time, the demon is just a demon law, these strange people are enough to restrain it, if Huang Ama is interested, Erchen will invite them to you to see. ā€

Yinchu also patted his chest and said.

He also glanced at Yinren very casually while speaking, the latter lowered his head and looked at his feet, with an expression of not hearing anything, in fact, since he came back, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has behaved quite well, basically honest like a good baby, except for the recent desire for women is stronger, the skin is smoother, and the beard on the mouth is getting less and less, there is nothing else special.

"Oh, you have a heart, so let them come!"

Kang Mazi suddenly became interested, and said with a rare smile.

Of course, Yang Dashuai didn't know that Kang Mazi was ready to use supernatural abilities to deal with him, in fact, he was sitting in the yamen of the Laizhou prefect in Ye County at this time, looking at the people kneeling on the ground in front of him.

These people are from Pingdu, they are here to cry and invite him to restore Pingdu, of course, from the perspective of Kang Mazi, it can also be said that they came to invite him to invade Pingdu, during this time, the people all over the Shandong Peninsula are already going crazy, looking forward to the news of the Ming army's fight, let alone Pingdu, even the people in Changyi, Weixian, Gaomi and other places are secretly organizing groups to come.

Although after Yang Feng finished fighting, he patted the pi shares and left, leaving not a single soldier to garrison.

But what does it matter?

As long as he fights over and distributes the grain in the treasury to the people, the people have had a hard time in the past two years, of course, they haven't had much to eat, but in the past two years, Kang Mazi has used all the means of looting in order to support the war in the south of the Yangtze River and build the sailor that wiped out the entire army in just one day. In order to feed the hardcore crops in Beijing, they can only loot from the people in Shandong, Hebei, Henan and other places nearby, so that every household has almost no overnight grain in the autumn harvest, and can only eat bran and drink rare potatoes every day to survive, and people are starving to death everywhere.

In this case, for the sake of the grain waiting to be transported away in the government warehouse, the common people also let it out, anyway, there is no food, and it is inevitable that people will starve to death during the spring famine.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Ben Shuai also wants to save the people from fire and water as soon as possible, but there is a priority in this matter, Ben Shuai is here to rescue His Royal Highness the Prince, the reason why he captured Ye County is just to replenish supplies, and he will have to leave and go straight to Dagukou immediately.

After thinking about it, Yang Feng finally chose to refuse.

"Dashuai, please have mercy on us!"

A common man cried and cried on the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the other people around him also cried and shouted, and one simply climbed to Yang Feng's feet, hugged his legs, and pleaded with a handful of snot and tears, which made Yang Dashuai a little unbearable.

"So be it!"

He picked up the man holding his leg and said: "Fathers and fellow villagers get up first, Ben Shuai really doesn't have time to pass, after all, the matter of saving the prince is urgent, but you can do it yourself, Ben Shuai will provide you with weapons, how many Qing troops are there in Pingdu?" It's just a few hundred people, can't you tens of thousands of young people still beat a few hundred Qing troops? ā€

"But, but none of us take the lead?"

The man who was lifted up by him said.

"Take the lead? It's not easy, come and get a letter of appointment. ā€

Yang Feng stretched out his hand to the side, and then a guard handed over a letter of appointment and pen and ink, and Yang Dashuai wrote a line of words like flowing water: "...... hereby appointed"

"What's your name?"

He asked, looking up.

"Villain Liu An."

The man hastened to answer.

Yang Feng nodded, and then quickly wrote: "Liu An is hereby appointed as the political envoy of the Ming Empire Shandong Chengxuan Silai Prefecture Pingdu County Commander, and the captain of the Pingdu Civil Defense Self-Defense Force, and the generalissimo of the Ming Empire, Yang Feng, the seventy-fourth year of the Ming Dynasty, October 25, the seventy-fourth year of the Ming Dynasty. ā€

When he had finished writing, he took his large seal and stamped it solemnly.

"You are the Pingdu county order, the marshal appointed, before the new county order is appointed, the military power of Pingdu is under your control, from today you officially receive my Ming official Yulu, you also have the right to apply to the superior for weapons and money and food, and then the marshal will capture Long Island, and then establish the Shandong Governor Yamen there, stationed the naval and land army, whatever you need, you can go there and apply to the Governor Yamen."

Yang Feng then handed the letter of appointment to Liu An and said.

Well, he was indeed prepared to do this, in fact, at this time his army had already occupied Long Island, and there were few Qing troops there, and no matter which island, it was completely covered by the range of those rifled naval guns, and any battalion of Ming troops could be bulldozed.

After the battle of Beijing, it is estimated that the Qing army in the north has been almost destroyed by him, even if he can recover a certain vitality, it is impossible to have the energy to take care of these relatively remote places, and he can penetrate all over Shandong in this way. It is not necessary to set up a base on Long Island, as long as there are two cruisers, it is guaranteed to become an impenetrable fortress, and it is enough to station another battalion of the army, and then let the people of Shandong solve the rest by themselves, give them flintlock guns, give them bayonets, give them burning pings, and let them fight their own turf.

And he can use the mineral resources here at the same time, such as the graphite mine in Pingdu and Laixi, he needs it very much, because whether he is making steel or engaging in crucible casting, this is indispensable, and in the short term, he can't take other large graphite mines, this is the best choice, not to mention other gold mines, coal mines, and iron mines.

Then he can use the good life brought by economic development to push it to expand in depth like corrosion. (To be continued.) )
