On the fifteenth day of the first month of the twelfth year of Chongzhen, Li Xingzhi led more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians in Jinan to arrive at the city of Laizhou, the base he expected.

Qian Anning and Qian Tianxi played the front station in Laizhou, the accommodation problem of the people is not difficult to solve, the original Laizhou city can accommodate nearly 100,000 people, and the houses in the city are basically repaired, although most of them are wooden and bamboo, but shelter from the wind and rain is not a problem.

Restoring the land, rectifying the fishermen, and these things are handled by Qian Anning and Qian Tianxi and others, and Li Xingzhi doesn't care about it for the time being, because he doesn't have time to take care of it.

According to his understanding of history, this time the Qing army attacked Shandong, but it broke through Qingzhou and even entered the territory of Leiden, but because Leiden really had no oil and water to fish, he had to collect his troops and return.

But this time there was some surprise, Jinan's money and grain were looted by the Jingbei army, and no one knew whether these Qing troops would invade Laizhou.

Therefore, on the second day after entering Laizhou, Li Xingzhi convened the Wenwu of the Jingbei Army to discuss how to reorganize the Jingbei Army and arrange a defensive line in Ye County.

In fact, after recruiting 4,300 recruits in Jinan, Li Xingzhi moved the idea of bringing the entire Leiden under military control, that is, establishing a military government, which would manage Leiden's military administration in a unified manner.

It's just that the establishment of the military government, Li Xingzhi is afraid that he will hit the fragile glass heart of Emperor Chongzhen and the Ming court, so Li Xingzhi decided to change the Leiden General Military Office to the Jingbei Military Marshal's Office, and he will take the post of military marshal.

The generals have no opinion on this, after all, whether it is the General Commander of Lyden or the Marshal of Jingbei Army, it is nothing more than a different name, and we are not all called Dashuai.

Lu Liangzhi was annoyed in his heart, this was changed to the military marshal's mansion, and the entire Leiden was included in the military management, which was actually a feudal town, although those military leaders in Liaodong were also semi-independent, and they violated the holy decree of the imperial court, but in the end they did not change their ways, if the development of the Northern Army of Ren Jing, and then the more than 10,000 military horses at hand were trained into an army, how could the imperial court restrain it.

In Lu Liangzhi's view, the danger of the feudal town is greater than that of the Liukou, because the feudal town has an independent territory and manages the military affairs and civil affairs of the jurisdiction, and in the long run, the 200,000 soldiers and civilians of Leiden may only know Li Dashuai and not the Ming Dynasty.

Li Xingzhi doesn't care what Lu Liangzhi thinks, integrating Lydon and establishing the Military Marshal's Mansion is his established plan, and it is impossible to change it.

After announcing the establishment of the Military Marshal's Mansion, Li Xingzhi just opened his mouth and said: "Everyone, since we have chosen Leiden as the base area, we must protect the people of Leiden, I wonder if you have any opinions on how to deploy defense?" ”

Lu Liang straightened up and praised: "Li Shuai always thinks of the people, he is really a model for us, how to arm, the lower officials have already had a draft, please take a look." ”

Although he was dissatisfied with Li Xingzhi's establishment of the military marshal's office, he was still quite proficient in military affairs, otherwise he would not have relied on Xin'an County to repeatedly block the troops of Dongyu.

Most of the generals are from civilian backgrounds, that is, Zhang Shaoqian, Lang Shaozhen and others are low-level officers, and they really don't know much about strategic issues, so they will look at Lu Liangzhi one by one.

Lu Liangzhi was prepared, and immediately ordered someone to take the map of Laizhou, and said to the generals: "I Jiaodong is not only the water system vertical and horizontal, but also the benefits of mountains and rivers, Daze Mountain is located in the north of Pingdu, is the highest peak in the east and west of Jiaodu, the mountain range is east-west and north-north, across Pingdu, Yexian, Zhaoyuan, Laiyang, stretching for more than 100 miles, the geographical location is very dangerous. ”

"Mr. Lu has a heart, when he first arrived in Leiden, he thoroughly ate the terrain of Jiaodong, and Ben Shuai has your assistance, just like Liu Xuande meets Zhuge Kongming."

Li Xingzhi praised it, and said: "I have glue in the west of Laizhou, Daze Mountains in the south, and the east captives have nothing in Jinan, and the commander is not sure whether his army will attack our Laizhou, so the commander intends to re-camp and set up a town, and arrange a defensive line in Pingdu and Laizhou." ”

Wang Zhong and others were overjoyed when they heard this, after all, the expansion of the organization means the expansion of power, and the town general is obviously much more majestic than the battalion officer, and who will be the town general also shows who has a higher status in the eyes of the marshal.

But Lang Shaozhen, Mou Wenshou and others didn't care, after all, they were demoted generals, and they couldn't take their turn in this round of three rounds and four, if they wanted to go further, they had to wait for their military exploits and wait for the Jingbei Army to expand.

The reaction of the generals was expected by Li Xingzhi, after all, people will have a utilitarian heart.

Li Xingzhi said with a smile: "This commander intends to change the Gangfeng Battalion to the first town of the Jingbei Army, guarding Ye County, under the jurisdiction of three Mandarin Duck infantry teams, three long-range infantry teams, and four white-pole infantry teams, with Yang Biao as the first town general, Qin Ying and Tang Shao as deputy generals. ”

After listening to Li Xingzhi's military order, Yang Biao was stunned, he didn't expect that Li Xingzhi would hand over the first town to himself, and he was stunned for a long time before he came out to receive the order.

Li Xingzhi smiled and said nothing, he promised Yang Biao to give him 5,000 soldiers in Lijiashan, from Gaoyang to Leiden, Yang Biao has been working hard, and giving him a town general is also the meaning of the question.

Although Yang Biao is not very good at fighting, with Qin Ying to help train military horses, and the first town himself is kept to guard Laizhou, under his nose, this training will definitely not be delayed.

Li Xingzhi spoke again, "The fire battalion was changed to the second town of the Jingbei Army, stationed in Daze Mountain, imitating the formation of the first town, and also set up ten infantry teams, the town general Wang Zhong, deputy generals Mu Wenshou and Lang Shaozhen. ”

Wang Zhong hurriedly received the order, although he didn't know what it meant to let him be stationed in Daze Mountain, but this was definitely not a bad thing.

Originally, there were three battalions in the Jingbei Army, although it was not enough for the current soldiers to gather two or five thousand military towns, but one more town would definitely be set up, so after Wang Zhong and Yang Biao received the order, the eyes of the generals and Li Xingzhi all looked at Li Rui.

Li Rui was a little confused, this fire camp was originally brought by Lao Tzu, and now it is given to Wang Zhong, and it depends on what I do, but there are no soldiers at home, is it possible that the marshal will use him as a baby pimple cavalry and a newly formed ironclad soldier to Lao Tzu.

Li Xingzhi knew that Li Rui was depressed, and said comfortingly: "The Zhenyu camp was changed to the third town of the Jingbei Army, that is, the water camp of our Jingbei Army, when the commander arrived in Qingzhou, he flew to the Dengzhou Water Camp to attack Su Guansheng and immediately rushed to Laizhou, thinking that he would arrive in a few days. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Shaoqian, Lang Shaozhen and others will also be happy.

Zhang Shaoqian said with a smile: "Dashuai is trying to lure the enemy deeper, and then cut off the glue, Dongyu can't cross without a boat, so he can only go south to Daze Mountain, and then let's take advantage of the favorable terrain to eat a part of the Tartar." ”

"However, in the battle of the Hutuo River, the commander folded the Chen brothers, and so many soldiers and civilians, this hatred is not shared, the commander intends to lead the cavalry battalion to garrison Huang County, there is the banner of the commander, as long as the Dongyu enters Laizhou, they will definitely rush over desperately, as long as they pass the glue, then they are the turtle in the urn of the commander."
