The owner waved his whip and threw a loud whip, and the horse ran briskly. The people along the way couldn't help but look at it, only to see that the car was full of Tartar heads, one by one shaved heads, only a pigtail was left outside, although the head was treated with lime, but it still exuded a strong smell, which made people unbearable to look at directly.

The common people couldn't help but look around, and suddenly they were almost blind in the back of the carriage. They swore that they had never seen so many war horses in their lives.

There are red, green, white, and yellow. Each horse is fat and strong, and extraordinarily spiritual. Especially the number is amazing, there is almost no end, the children are counting, their eyes are sour, but they can't count how many war horses. These war horses were driven to Kaifeng.

"Master, you see this horse is so majestic!"

The man straightened his waist from the ground, and said with a smile: "Dare to love, don't you see, An ** has won the battle again, if you want me to say, how many Tartars came, they were all for food, or it won't be long before the world will be too peaceful!" ā€

"Alas, it used to be said that good men should not be soldiers, but now that I look at it, if I can join An**, it would be good. You said that if our son rode a tall horse and walked in front of the villagers, how majestic we should be! ā€

The man was silent for a long time, and shook his head: "Work hard, this time the grain is harvested, let a few boys eat better, raise their bodies strong, and the talent of recruiting soldiers can be seen!" ā€

Lu Dongyong, as a representative of the meritorious soldiers, was responsible for escorting the seizures all the way to Kaifeng, and the people along the way all looked at them with admiration. made him extremely comfortable, pulled his chest high, and even the bone joints sounded.

All the way to Kaifeng. Gu Zhenhua personally greeted them at the city gate.

Lu Dongyong hurriedly jumped off the war horse, took a few steps in front of Gu Zhenhua, raised his hand and saluted!

"Report to Grandpa Guo, I was ordered to sacrifice 2,758 Tartar heads, including Gushan Ezhen Zhun Pagoda and Ye Keshu, and there are also 568o war horses, please instruct Grandpa Guo!"

Gu Zhenhua nodded with satisfaction. said with a smile: "There are a lot of others, just so many war horses, you are a meritorious." Very well done! ā€

Fang Jianming on the side smiled and said, "Grandpa Guo, with these more than 5,000 war horses, I think we can establish a horse farm!" ā€

"Horse farm? It's time to have a dedicated horse breeding base, have you chosen a location? ā€

"Selected. It's in Nanyang. There is also a humble and good proposition, and spent 50,000 taels of silver to let the Yi people buy twenty stallions on their behalf. ā€

"Fifty thousand silver? Twenty horses? ā€

Yue Poyu's eyes suddenly widened, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "Brother Fang, did you buy a golden horse or a silver horse?" How can it be so expensive? ā€

Fang Jianming said with a smile: "Head Yue, the ancients had a thousand dollars to buy horse bones, and thousands of miles of horses are never cheap?" ā€

"Huh?" Yue Poyu was shocked and hurriedly grabbed Fang Jianming. Surprised, he asked, "You said that these twenty horses are all thousands of horses?" ā€

Fang Jianming sighed: "There is a lack of good horses in the Central Plains, and most of the Tartars are Mongolian horses. The stamina is good, but the degree, the ability to sprint, all of them are not successful. I heard John Tang say that the war horses of Xiyi are one foot taller than the Mongolian horses, more majestic and vigorous, and faster, just like the sweaty horses that the Han Dynasty got from the Western Regions! ā€

"Oh my God!" Yue Poyu suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly said: "Grandpa Guo, there is such a good horse, but we must equip our winged cavalry first, if our war horse can also pass the Tartar, I dare to guarantee that the Tartar is absolutely vulnerable, even if it is ten times, I am not afraid." ā€

Gu Zhenhua smiled: "Didn't you hear, these twenty are stallions, and they have to be crossed with local war horses, and it is estimated that it will take three or five years before they can be equipped." ā€

When Yue Poyu heard this, he suddenly felt a little excited, it seems that he has to wait!

Gu Zhenhua said to Fang Jianming again: "I think it is worth doing to introduce Xiyi stallions, and not only to introduce one, but also to breed your own war horses." At that time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty worked hard to get a bloody BMW, but it was a pity that it disappeared due to improper breeding. You have to keep the purebred stallions. ā€

After explaining, everyone rejoiced and rejoiced, and let the soldiers carry their heads through the downtown area, attracting hundreds of onlookers, and everyone was amazed. Although this kind of victory can no longer make everyone fascinated, everyone is still very excited.

"If you want to say that our grandfather has the ability, one victory after another, it is fundamentally safe, nothing else, and he sleeps steadily!"

The people talked a lot and were particularly happy. Gu Zhenhua was not so relaxed, and the information of the last two days made him frown.

He had to gather all the civil and military forces and let everyone discuss a countermeasure together.

Wu Kaijie first introduced the situation to everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, at the same time that the Tartars are harassing northern Henan, they have already attacked Shandong, and just two days ago, they have captured Qingzhou, and the Tartars have surrounded Jinan with heavy troops!" ā€

When they heard this, they all looked at each other.

Chen Qianfu couldn't help but say: "Jinan is the provincial governance of Shandong, once it is lost, the whole Shandong will not be protected!" ā€

Gao Hongtu even said: "Not only Shandong is not guaranteed, I think even Nanzhili is dangerous." ā€

Just as Gao Hongtu finished speaking, someone suddenly ran in with urgent information and sent it directly to Gu Zhenhua. Gu Zhenhua opened it and couldn't help but sigh.

"Good words don't work, bad words are good, Jinan has been lost!"

"What?" Everyone present was shocked.

"This, how is this possible, Jinan is a provincial government, the city is high and the pool is deep, I heard that the Shi Pavilion Department has been in business for a long time, how can it be vulnerable?" Chen Qianfu asked in surprise.

Gu Zhenhua shook his head: "If it weren't for Shi Kefa, maybe it would be better!" ā€

Gu Zhenhua casually threw the information to everyone, and everyone couldn't help but look at it, Li Jibo and Wu Kaijie couldn't help but read out their voices: "There are words left and right that Shi Gong is afraid, and he will leave the camp and go to Yanzhou." The righteous men of the two rivers were discouraged, and they cried and cried. ā€

When everyone heard this poem, they seemed to be able to see their fathers and ordinary people begging each other, and the benevolent and righteous people were fighting for the country. Let the people cry and plead, he just doesn't care!

"Shi Kefa misled the country!" Li Jibo couldn't help but sigh, and the rest of the generals clenched all of them tightly, resentful.

In all fairness, for historical reasons, Gu Zhenhua always had a good impression of Shi Kefa, and he couldn't bear to kill them all. When dealing with the Donglin Party, he did not attack Shi Kefa, but on the contrary, he agreed that he would go to Shandong on his back and preside over the overall situation of resisting the Qing Dynasty.

Shi Kefa may be a little insufficient, but An ** has already shouldered the bulk of the resistance to the Qing Dynasty, as long as he appeases the people in Shandong, repairs the city, and reorganizes the army, even if it is not good, it can last for ten days and half a month, so that An ** is also convenient to support.

At the beginning of the year, after Gu Zhenhua defeated Ma Shiying, he was also worried that the Tartars would rekindle the war, so Gu Zhenhua had already built two towns of Gao Jie and Liu Zeqing to go north to help Shi Kefa defend Shandong.

In exchange for their consent, Gu Zhenhua even gave up Xuzhou. In this way, it is to shrink the troops, let An ** form a powerful fist, and secondly, to satisfy the appetite of Gao Jie and Liu Zeqing, and save them from adding chaos.

To be honest, Gu Zhenhua didn't expect much from them, and he didn't expect them to win, as long as they could stick to the city. After all, An ** has won so many battles, and the morale of the military and the people of the whole country has also been inspired, and it will not collapse at the touch of a button like history!

However, it turns out that Gu Zhenhua was very wrong.

When Shi Kefa first entered Shandong, it happened that the Qing army was going all out to deal with the Dashun army and An**, and the main force of the Qing army withdrew from Shandong. The people of Shandong rose up one after another, and the people's morale was high for a while.

Some staff members built yƬ Shi Kefa took the opportunity to attack Tianjin, he didn't listen, and someone built yƬ to attack the daimyo's mansion to relieve the pressure of An ** in northern Henan, but Shi Kefa deduced that the weather was severe and it was inconvenient to send troops.

If you can't fight, you should always run the nest and consolidate Jinan, Qingzhou and other places, so that you can resist the attack of the Tartars. Who knew that this old gentleman didn't even do this, and as a result, the Tartars took the two places lightly.

Wu Kaijie also gritted his teeth, and couldn't help but say: "Grandpa Guo, there is something even more ridiculous, the Tartars attacked Jinan, and Shi Kefa ordered in the morning to let Gao Jie's troops march into Yucheng to guard against the Tartars." As a result, at noon, he ordered the army to stop temporarily, but in the afternoon, he ordered Gao Jie to return to Licheng immediately. The order changes three times a day, and it is the opposite of each other. As a result, Gao Jie was so angry that he didn't go to Relief Nan, and fled back to Yanzhou with his men and horses. Shi Kefa also abandoned Jinan that night and fled south. ā€

In the face of Shi Kefa's behavior, Gu Zhenhua could only look up to the sky and sigh, mediocre officials are more terrible than corrupt officials! Especially this mediocre official still has a good reputation, it is simply a disaster for the country and the people!

Li Jibo said with a calm face: "In the five days before and after, Qingzhou and Jinan have all been lost, Shandong can't be saved, and the old man is worried that even Xuzhou will be in trouble!" ā€

Chen Qianfu was also sweating on his head, and hurriedly said: "Grandpa Guo, what do you think you should do, are you going to send troops?" ā€

Gu Zhenhua shook his head firmly: "No, how many people are there in An**, thousands of miles along the Yellow River, how can we defend?" ā€

"That's right, now that the summer harvest is imminent, the people are looking forward to food to save their lives, if they forcibly send troops again, it will definitely damage the vitality of Henan, and the foundation of An** will be shaken!"

When the big guys looked at each other, someone suddenly ran in in a hurry, holding an urgent document in his hand.

"Grandpa Guo, this is sent by the Shi Pavilion Department, he said that he is old and frail, and it is difficult to shoulder heavy responsibilities, please send someone to help Yanzhou, he is willing to abdicate and make way for Xian!"

Before Gu Zhenhua could express his position, another letter of 600 miles was sent from Nanjing, which was an official letter from Ruan Dacheng, asking An ** to send troops to guard Shandong.

Everyone was still digesting this information, and the gentry of Xuzhou jointly sent a letter of 10,000 words, asking An ** to protect the safety of Xuzhou.

"Hey, isn't that what everyone expected?" Gu Zhenhua smiled bitterly and said, "Do they regard An ** as Sun Wukong?" If you want to beat the former enemy, or do you treat Benjue as Nezha, with three heads and six arms, can't they fight a little bit? (To be continued......)
