The Shandong Righteous Army's request for help naturally did not only find Zhu Han here.

They almost rushed to the hospital when they were sick, and almost all the forces of the Red Turban Army sent people to ask for help.

However, there is almost no response to it.

The Red Turban Army from all walks of life is now in a good situation, and they are all busy grabbing money, food, and territory.

Who has the spare time to manage the Shandong Righteous Army.

Besides, even if you want to help, the Shandong rebels along the coast are too far away.

In addition to the sea route, if you rush to rescue by land, I am afraid that you can only give the brothers of the Shandong Righteous Army the first seven.

Regarding the situation of the Shandong Righteous Army, Zhu Han already had a plan.

Shandong, especially the coastal area, if it can be controlled, can not only achieve complete control of the East China Sea, but also use the coastal area of Shandong as a base to threaten the Liaoyang Province of Mengyuan's great rear to the north, as well as the dog-legged vassal state of Goryeo.

Liaoyang Province was not only able to provide a source of troops, but also a lot of grain and grass to support, so that after the loss of Jiangnan, Meng Yuan Dadu could barely maintain the problem of eating.

In this way, Shandong has become very important.

After returning to the camp, Shi Nai'an and Hu Weiyong both expressed some difficulties.

"Shandong is too far away, if it is rescued, I don't know how much grain and grass will be consumed." Shi Nai'an said with some concern.

"Deputy marshal, in terms of grain and grass, it is still a trivial matter, our army is now short of troops, and it is the time for spring ploughing and sowing, so there are no extra troops." Hu Weiyong said.

Now the division of land among the local tyrants in the area of Except Prefecture has already been completed, and the soldiers and civilians of each military camp have been allocated land, and they are all busy cultivating.

At this time, of course, the people could no longer be recruited as soldiers, and the regular soldiers of the Red Turban Army had already been distributed everywhere.

"This time to send troops to Shandong, I already want to come over, I don't need too many troops, one two or three thousand people is enough, and the rest of the men and horses can be screened out from the captives, so that they can lead us as servants!" Zhu Han said.

As soon as they heard this, Hu Weiyong and Shi Nai'an were stunned.

"Captive?"

"Yes, it's a prisoner, we defeated Meng Yuan and Goryeo, and captured a lot of people, aren't they all working as coolies in Except Prefecture, there must be some reformed ones who are more honest, you can let them be soldiers, anyway, they are soldiers and eat food, I believe they can be obedient." Zhu Han said.

"The deputy marshal's strategy, you can give it a try." Shi Nai'an immediately agreed.

Since he thought of this method, Zhu Han immediately implemented it.

As for how to choose a prisoner as cannon fodder, it is up to him to choose.

This kind of thing is a thing, and Hu Weiyong and others have no experience.

Before Zhu Han returned to Zhuzhou, he first ordered people to settle Gao Guoping, Liu Sanniang and other people from the Shandong Righteous Army, instructed them to come back soon, and then took them to Shandong by sea.

As soon as he returned to the state, Zhu Han immediately went to inspect the nearby quarry.

In addition to the state, there are more and more kinds of construction, and the more stone is needed.

The work in the quarry is very tiring.

At least nearly half of the tens of thousands of captives who arrived had died in the first three months.

Now the remaining captives are more resistant.

In the quarry, from time to time, large puffs of dust stirred up, and the white dust in the sky was like flour, sprinkled on people's bodies.

Coupled with the scorching sun, the captives were sweating profusely, and the limestone soil on their bodies was washed away in ravines.

From time to time, captives fainted on the ground, and the overseers of the quarry, of course, would not be polite to these Mongols and Koreans, and the whips in their hands were greeted first.

If it is a strong struggle, it must be a pretending illness, and it is indispensable to fight harder.

If the beating can only be a weak snort, then it can be seen that something is really wrong, and the quarry overseers will call for men to carry the fallen captives to the nearby wooden shed.

There is a medicinal soup to drink to relieve the heat and ward off evil spirits, and you can also take a little rest.

"Deputy marshal, now these Tartars are blessed, I wonder when I first came, which one of them was not tired to death." The commander of the quarry said from the side.

"Manpower is still very precious, and it can't be used to death." Zhu Han said.

After some inspection, he had obtained a detailed list of prisoners from the overseer.

Which of the captives were more obedient and which were very prickly, the overseers of the quarry had already been prepared.

Hu Weiyong, who came with him, saw this, and his heart was immediately greatly admired.

It seems that Zhu Han had already thought of using these captives to make people prepare such details.

"There are so many captives in Goryeo? It seems that there are very few casualties. ”

Zhu Han looked at the list with some surprise.

Of the more than 1,000 Goryeo captives, almost none of them died, and the number remained in the early 1,000s.

Moreover, in the records of the quarry, the Goryeo captives are all of the highest performance evaluations, and they belong to the level that can be put to good use.

"Deputy marshal, these Koreans are very honest, after coming, let them go east, that is absolutely not to the west, who wants to be lazy and slippery, they will compete with each other to denounce, within a few days, it is already very reassuring to us, so they are also treated preferentially in daily life, and there are not many people who die of illness and exhaustion." Said the commander of the quarry.

This quarry, which punishes the captives, generally treats the captives harshly, in order to eliminate the sick and arrogant inside.

Hearing the words of the quarry manager, Hu Weiyong on the side couldn't help but say: "Then say so, aren't these Koreans born with a slave temperament?" ”

"Hu Dada said yes, we also think that they are born slaves and cheap bones." The quarry steward said.

When Zhu Han heard this, he also laughed.

Everyone else around them laughed, and the whole room was filled with a cheerful atmosphere because of the laughter of the Koreans.

"Pick a thousand Mongol captives, and pick out all the Goryeo captives."

Zhu Han said with a smile.

"Yes, lieutenant!"

Soon, according to the list on the roster, two thousand captives were selected.

Zhu Han ordered all the captives to be gathered, and announced in public that the two thousand captives would be transferred out of the quarry and turned into auxiliaries for the Red Turban Army.

As auxiliaries of the Red Turban Army, they were not only able to obtain sufficient food, but also did not have to work day and night, received medicine when they were sick, and were able to accumulate military merits, and received land, houses, livestock, and gold and silver rewards.

All of a sudden, the captives of the entire quarry cast envious and longing eyes.

When Zhu Han saw this scene, he was very proud in his heart.

This routine of mine is really simple and effective.

Let these captives suffer enough first, and then pull them out and reward them with the status of an auxiliary, which can not only motivate the remaining captives and give them hope to work hard, but also these captives who have been given the status of auxiliaries will also be grateful to Zhu Han's Red Turban Army because of the special treatment they have received.

Even, they attach great importance to their status as auxiliaries.

"Deputy marshal, how to deal with these captive auxiliaries, is it to let them be integrated into various armies?" Hu Weiyong asked beside him.

According to ordinary means, for the prisoners who surrendered to themselves, they would generally not retain their original small groups, and they would often be scattered and placed in various armies to prevent them from colluding and colluding to do things.

"No, I already have a plan."

"You first bring these captives back, first remove some anti-disease and insecticidal medicine from the state pharmacy, give them to eat and detoxify first, prevent any plague from being brought back, and then provide them with food according to the standards of the auxiliaries, and finally prepare clothes or something."

Regarding Zhu Han's arrangement, Hu Weiyong didn't understand it a little, but he didn't dare to say much, and immediately arranged it.

These captives have already suffered a lot, and if they want to be used as auxiliaries to fill up cannon fodder, they have to be given a few full meals first.

Otherwise, once you go to the battlefield, you will be defeated by a single charge from the enemy.

After selecting the manpower in the prefecture, Zhu Han arranged the affairs of the state to stay behind, and returned to Taizhou with the soldiers and horses a few days later.

The sea vessels that had already been requisitioned had already replenished their water and food, and they could take advantage of the south wind to march to Shandong at any time.

Gao Guoping, Liu Sanniang and others, who had been waiting in Taizhou for a few days, were even happier when they saw Zhu Han come back than when they saw their father and mother.

Especially Liu Sanniang, when she saw Zhu Han, she was already shy.

Zhu Han happened to be jumping up recently, and he already had the appearance of an adult, which made Liu Sanniang like it more and more the more he looked at it.

As for why she likes it, Liu Sanniang herself doesn't know.

However, Zhu Han can still detect Liu Sanniang's eyes.

After getting along before, he has a good understanding of the past of this female green forest.

As a member of the pirates, Liu Sanniang is a female bandit who has really killed and robbed people, and even her ruthless methods are not lagging behind in the pirate's den.

"One Zhangqing!"

This is a nickname that Shi Nai'an immediately gave her after hearing about Liu Sanniang's deeds.

Yizhangqing is a black poisonous snake, the most spicy and ruthless, with Liu Sanniang's young and enchanting figure, Zhu Han thinks it is very appropriate anyway.

"Vice Marshal, do you want us to lead the way?"

When he was about to set sail, Liu Sanniang, a young man, took the initiative to come to Zhu Han.

"It's free to lead the way, we have detailed charts, and we also have guides, besides, you are Shandong pirates, cough, rebels, and you are not familiar with the water conditions here."

Zhu Han said with a smile.

Now Liu Sanniang has changed into a woman dressed as a man again, because she is about to board the ship, and it is generally taboo to have women on the ship that goes to sea.

Even if she is wearing men's clothes, it is difficult to hide her figure.

Hiss!

Thinking of this, Zhu Han couldn't help but take another breath.

What's wrong with me lately, I have to think about it crookedly at every turn.

When Liu Sanniang heard Zhu Han's words, she showed an unconvinced expression.

"We have been to the sea before, and we have been to the mouth of the Yangtze River, so we are familiar with the water conditions." Liu Sanniang said.

The so-called 'going to sea' or 'fishing' of pirates must be robbing homes and robbing ships.

Thinking that the girl in front of him could be regarded as a veteran of killing people and selling goods, Zhu Han was no longer restless.

"Lieutenant Marshal, it's time to get on board!"

With Hu Dahai's words, Zhu Han boarded the big ship.

The mighty fleet set out from Taizhou all the way east, then entered the sea and headed north, along the coast towards Shandong.

Zhu Han's voyage was at a good time.

Not only is there a southerly wind in the sky, but it has always been sunny, and there are no storms and typhoons that are common in summer.

After two days of sailing, they entered the northern end of the East China Sea, which can be regarded as entering the waters of Shandong Province.

"Deputy Marshal, that is Haiqu County in Shandong Province!"

Hu Dahai held a nautical chart in his hand and pointed to Zhu Han on the coast.

Haiqu County is the southeasternmost part of Shandong, and there is also a rebel army rising here, and its leader seems to be called Yu Deshui.

However, this Yu Deshui claims to be a descendant of the Zhao Song royal family, and he has changed his name to Zhao Deshui.

"Go get closer." Zhu Han commanded.

According to the information provided by the Zhou family, a maritime merchant in Suzhou, Haiqu is a very good haven, and the Mengyuan power here is weak, so it can be used as the first base to enter Shandong.

Under Zhu Han's orders, the mighty fleet approached the coast.

After sending a team of scouts ashore, information was quickly obtained.

"Deputy Marshal Qiyu, my subordinates found out that the righteous army Yu Deshui and others are camping not far from the shore, they have already lost Haiqu County, and they are ready to cross the sea and flee at any time."

When Zhu Han heard this, he immediately ordered again.

"Go and explore again, find that Yu Deshui, bring him here, and I will ask for details."

Soon, the scout landed again.

Not long after, a group of fishermen and farmers in coarse cloth clothes gathered around a man in an earthy yellow suit and walked to the shore.

At this time, the Red Turban Army had already found a suitable anchorage and completed the encampment.

"Deputy marshal, the last general has brought people here."

Zhu Han took a look, and the man in front of him in khaki clothes should be the 'Great Song Emperor Uncle' Zhao Deshui.

It's just that this Uncle Song Dynasty is really a little poor and pitiful, and the yellow robe on his body turned out to be a yellow robe, and there is even a hem of the monk's robe on it.

As for the Yunlong Xiangrui Diagram, there is no shadow.

For people like Zhao Deshui, these things can just deceive the people, but they are not worth mentioning here in Zhu Han.

"Participate in the adult."

After Zhao Deshui saw Zhu Han standing at the bow of the boat, he hurriedly knelt down and bowed.

Zhu Han looked at Zhao Deshui, then looked at the people next to him, and then asked, "General Zhao, are these people your subordinates?" ”

Calling him General Zhao is a lot of face-saving.

Zhu Han glanced at this group of people, there were about fifty or sixty of them, and all of them were yellow and thin.

"If you go back to your lordship, they are all my subordinates."

Yu Deshui also hurriedly replied, in front of the majestic Zhu Han, he didn't dare to continue to put on a score.

"How many local Tartars are there, and where are they stationed?" Zhu Han continued to ask.

Zhao Deshui hurriedly replied.

"There were more than 1,000 troops in the Haiqu Tartars, some of whom were stationed in the city, and the rest were cruising near the county seat. The commander of this army is named Ma Wenchang, and he is now busy looting money in Haiqu County, and has not yet come to attack the seaside. ”

"And how many soldiers do you have?" Zhu Han continued to ask.

Zhao Deshui's subordinates originally had more than 20,000 people, but after repeated defeats, they had already lost most of them.

"Deputy Marshal, we only have more than 8,000 people!" Zhao Deshui said.

More than 8,000 people?

Zhu Han couldn't help but be surprised in his heart, there were more than 8,000 rebels in a small Haiqu County!

Moreover, what surprised Zhu Han even more was that a rebel army of 8,000 people was forced to the seaside by more than 1,000 Mengyuan troops.

"Then there are so many of you, why don't you fight back!" Zhu Han asked.

Zhao Deshui is very simple. "Deputy marshal, you can't beat it! Those dogs and tartars, everyone has weapons to take advantage of, and they also wear armor and ride horses, and even bows and arrows are strong crossbows, and we originally had 20,000 people, and most of the dead and wounded are only 8,000 left. ”

Zhu Han raised his eyes and looked, what Zhao Deshui said was not bad at all.

The subordinates who followed Zhao Deshui were not so much the rebels as the rebellious fishermen and peasants.

The most threatening weapon in their hands is the fisherman's fork, and the rest of the hoes, pickaxes, and the like are all about participation.

"Since that's the case, then let your subordinates take back Haiqu County with me!"

Zhu Han looked at Zhao Deshui and said.

"Deputy Marshal, really?!"

Hearing Zhu Han's words, Zhao Deshui was also incredulous, he was originally worried that Zhu Han would despise him, or even ignore him.

After all, this time the people he led were just a rabble.

Zhu Han ignored Zhao Deshui, but looked at Chang Yuchun.

"General Chang, recapture Haiqu City for Ben Shuai, you may be able to do it?!"

"Deputy Marshal, please rest assured, this matter will naturally be handled properly in the end!"

Chang Yuchun was also excited when he heard that Zhu Han asked him to go out, after all, this was a good opportunity to earn military merits.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you!" Zhu Han nodded.

"Don't worry, these little minions, one person is enough to do it!" Chang Yuchun patted his chest and promised.

After a night's rest.

Early the next morning.

Chang Yuchun led a thousand Red Turban Army as the main force, and Zhao Deshui led the Haiqu Righteous Army as the vanguard, and slaughtered Haiqu County.

They carried three twelve-pounder guns with them, enough to destroy the gates of Haiqu County.

With such a small war, there is naturally no need for Zhu Han to go out.

。

。

"Boom ......!"

The cannonballs rolled in the chambers, carrying fire and smoke, and directly bombarded the city wall of Haiqu County.

Soon after, the weak gates collapsed, and rows of sawdust were blown away.

Some of the soldiers were affected and fell to the ground.

However, these Mengyuan soldiers in Haiqu County were also well-trained, and immediately counterattacked on the spot after the city gate fell.

However, Chang Yuchun is such a general, how can he put these small fish and shrimp in his eyes, and directly lead the army to launch a Mengchong.

During the whole battle, Zhao Deshui's 8,000 'beggar' rebels, in addition to waving their flags and shouting, watched the whole process.

All the food and supplies in the city, as well as the treasures, were confiscated into the hands of the Red Turbans.

Zhao Deshui's subordinates jumped with joy to celebrate.

Seeing the happy appearance of the brothers under his hands, Zhao Deshui also showed a relieved smile on his face.

"Haha, okay, you must hug Marshal Zhu Han's thigh in the future!

”

Chang Yuchun took the head of Ma Wenchang, the guard general of the Yuan army, and returned to the beach majestically.

"Vice Marshal, I'm back!"

Zhao Deshui, who followed closely, immediately smiled and exaggerated the majesty of Chang Yuchun,

At the same time, loyalty is expressed.

Hearing Zhao Deshui's words, Chang Yuchun also felt beautiful in his heart.

"Adjutant General, the Admiral has seized some Tartar letters."

Chang Yuchun immediately handed some documents to Zhu Han.

After Zhu Han took the paperwork, he quickly browsed it.

In a moment, Zhu Han put down the paperwork.

"General Zhao, there are 5,000 Tartars in Langya Mountain in the north, is it true?" Zhu Han asked.

"It's all true, lieutenant."

Zhao Deshui hurriedly replied.

According to the letters captured by Chang Yuchun, the main force of the Shandong Yuan Army was divided into two routes, attacking and encircling Langya Mountain all the way and Haiyang County all the way, that is, Liu Sanniang's father's righteous army.

"It seems that if we want to hold Haiqu County this time, we must first take down the forces of the Tartars in the north, otherwise, we will not be able to occupy Haiqu at all."

After Zhu Han finished speaking, he commanded Chang Yuchun.

"Order all the soldiers, rest for two days, let's go and destroy the Tartars in the north and relieve the siege of Langya Mountain in one fell swoop!"

"Yes!"

When Chang Yuchun heard Zhu Han's words, he was also shocked, and hurriedly left.

In these two short days, Zhu Han changed the situation in Haiqu County.

Zhu Han first let the local rebels, under the leadership of the local rebels, destroy a group of Meng Yuan's die-hard heroes, and confiscate their land, grain and silver.

Regarding the weakness of the local rebel army and the drawbacks of crushing at the touch of a strong enemy, Zhu Han began to solve it for Zhao Deshui.

"Now that you are a rebel army, not a bandit, you should strictly formulate and implement military orders, so that rewards and punishments are clear!"

"All the soldiers of the righteous army, each of them will be given twenty acres of land, ten people, a horse or a cow, and other farm tools and houses should also be distributed to the soldiers, so that they can have the determination to defend their property when the enemy attacks!"

Zhu Han began to teach Zhao Deshui, the uncle of the Great Song Dynasty in Haiqu, how to stick to Haiqu County.

For Zhao Deshui, although this method is very stupid, it is very effective.

Because these rebels in Haiqu, Shandong Province, are generally poor people who have no land or food.

Therefore, there is a great desire for land and wealth.

When they heard what Deputy Marshal Zhu Han said that they could get their own land and houses, these local rebel soldiers immediately went crazy.

"The deputy marshal is wise!"

"Vice Marshal Kamui!"

The rebels cheered from the bottom of their hearts.

"Then you can go and prepare now." Zhu Han said to Zhao Deshui with a smile.

"Yes!"

Zhao Deshui nodded again and again, and then took some rebels from Haiqu County to the city.

This time, Zhao Deshui was not like before, he just took the soldiers of the righteous army to eat meat and drink wine.

Instead, he directly divided the fields and land into the girls, and distributed the property of the captured Mengyuan officials and tyrants to everyone.

This method also made the hearts of these rebels very satisfied.

Not only that, Zhu Han also asked Zhao Deshui to open a warehouse in Haiqu County to release grain, help the victims and win people's hearts, and soon expanded the army to more than 10,000 people!

For a while, the surrounding scattered rebels also responded.

The situation in Haiqu County instantly improved, and Zhao Deshui, with the support of Zhu Han, quickly gained a group of elite rebels who were willing to work hard to defend their 'property'.

Zhao Deshui's sphere of influence is getting wider and wider!

With Zhu Han's encouragement, Zhao Deshui began to recruit and select elites and form new elite soldiers, not only increasing their salaries, but also equipping them with new equipment such as weapons, armor stomachs, and crackling mountain cannons delivered by Zhu Han!

Under such a favorable situation, the big and small heroes of Haiqu County have been loyal and no longer dare to resist in the slightest.

Some people who were unwilling to surrender were also arrested by the righteous army led by Zhao Deshui, and then beheaded, beheaded for public display, and raided their homes and destroyed their homes!

In just a few days, the situation in Haiqu County immediately underwent a huge reversal!

Everything was going according to Zhu Han's plan, and Zhao Deshui also began to rectify the law and order in Haiqu County.

At this time, Zhu Han led the Red Turban Army to the north and came to the area of Langya Mountain, which was surrounded by the Yuan army.

The local rebel army, under the leadership of the leader Li Ershan, also known as Zhao Ershan, has been surrounded by the Yuan army in the mountains for more than a month.

The general of the Yuan army, Mengge Timur, led an army of 10,000 yuan to block all the passages, and as long as he surrounded it for another month, he could starve to death the thousands of righteous troops inside.

"Deputy marshal, the last general has already found out that the real strength of the Tartars is only five or six thousand!" Chang Yuchun reported to Zhu Hanyu.

"Well, then I'll give you 3,000 men and horses, can you be sure of annihilating the Tartars?" Zhu Han asked.

"Deputy marshal rest assured, the last general will guarantee to carry Brother Meng's head Timur to his life!" Chang Yuchun said loudly.

Zhu Han's expedition this time, in addition to the naval army, there were only 3,000 model troops, and 2,000 auxiliary soldiers selected from the prisoners.

This time it can be said that he has great trust in Chang Yuchun, and all three thousand soldiers and horses have been handed over to him for command.

"Well, if you win, you will be rewarded!"

When Chang Yuchun heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly into a slit, and he was murderous.

"Yes, lieutenant!"

Chang Yuchun agreed, and then took 3,000 soldiers and went straight to Langya Mountain.

......

"My lord, a group of people of unknown origin are coming towards us, and they are already in the southeast direction of Langya Mountain!"

A soldier knelt down in front of Mengge Timur and reported loudly.

"What a thief, I don't know where the rabble came from, I'm really looking for death!"

After hearing this, Mengge Timur was furious.

"Soldiers, follow me!"

"Kill!

”

As soon as Mengge Timur's voice fell, the sound of trumpets resounded in the sky!

Immediately, hundreds of men in black armor rode war horses towards the Changyuchun army at the foot of Langya Mountain.

"Kill!"

Seeing this, Chang Yuchun immediately roared, and led three thousand righteous troops to kill the group of Yuan troops head-on.

The two sides met halfway, and immediately a fierce battle began.

On the one hand, the famous Mengjiang Chang Yuchun is in the green history, and on the other hand, the unknown Mengge Timur.

The outcome of the battle between the two sides can be described as no suspense.

The 3,000 rebels who often met the spring, effortlessly, killed the Yuan army twice as large as themselves and fled in a big defeat.

Looking at the Yuan army fleeing in all directions, Chang Yuchun was in a good mood!

However, what made Chang Yuchun feel bad was that after exterminating the Yuan army, Mengge Timur actually led the remaining soldiers to escape.

This is very angry, and often meets spring.

But after a pursuit, it was unsuccessful, so I had no choice but to give up.

After the 3,000 righteous army led by Chang Yuchun arrived at the foot of Langya Mountain, watching Chang Yuchun's arrival, thousands of volunteer troops shouted and shouted.

"The Tartars are defeated!"

"Reinforcements are coming!"

"Reinforcements are coming!"

"Hooray!"

"Generalissimo Zhu, you're finally here!"

Chang Yuchun led a part of the soldiers stationed at the foot of the cottage, responsible for guarding and preventing the Yuan army from sneaking attack.

......

When Zhu Han arrived at the foot of Langya Mountain, he saw that Chang Yuchun's camp was full of rebels.

"See Zhu Dashuai!"

"See Zhu Dashuai!"

When Zhu Han revealed his identity, many of the rebel soldiers in Langya Mountain shouted in unison.

"General Zhao, how many men do you still have?"

Zhu Han asked with a smile at Li Ershan, another great Song emperor's uncle.

"If you go back to Dashuai, there are still about 2,000 people!"

"Good!"

After Zhu Han heard 'Zhao' Ershan's answer, he immediately nodded and praised: "General Zhao, you have done a good job!" ”

"Subordinates are terrified!"

Hearing Zhu Han's praise, Li Ershan hurriedly bowed down and saluted.

"General Zhao, I order you to immediately lead the rebel army under your command to help General Chang exterminate the remaining remnants of the Tartars! Be sure to wipe it out! ”

"All the seizures in Jiaozhou City will be given to you!"

Hearing Zhu Han's order, Zhao Ershan or Li Ershan was immediately overjoyed.

"Thank you for your grace!"

"Don't worry, your subordinates will definitely wipe out all the Tartars and never live up to your expectations!"

Zhao Dechun roared excitedly, and led the rebel army under his command to lead Chang Yuchun's troops to Jiaozhou City to pursue the remnants of the Yuan army.

Shandong, outside Haiyang County.

Hama, the prime minister of Dayuan Shandong, is leading 5,000 elite soldiers to be stationed in the west of the city.

To the east of Haiyang County, more than 6,000 Goryeo soldiers who had just arrived were stationed.

The two sides surrounded Hai Duong City.

The defenders in the city broke through one after another under the leadership of Liu Sangui, and each time they lost their troops and could not succeed.

For this battle, Shandong Prime Minister Hama is already in his hands.

It's just that how to win this battle is the most important thing, and for Hama, pacifying some coastal thieves in the area is a small problem at all.

Hama wants to establish its prestige in Shandong through this battle and run Shandong into its own base base.

Therefore, for these thieves in Shandong, Hama did not implement a very tragic policy of killing and burning them all, because Hama has regarded these Shandong territories as his own.

The so-called rat bogey, if you exterminate some thieves, you will beat Shandong to a pulp, then when you rule Shandong in the future, you have no one to ask for money, how to maintain your strength? .

At this time.

Plumes of smoke suddenly rose from the east of Haiyang County.

The black smoke rose into the sky, and there was a faint cry of misery.

"What the hell is going on?" When Shandong Prime Minister Hama walked out of the camp, he saw the situation in the east of Haiyang County and immediately asked his own soldiers.

Several of the Chihou soldiers of the Yuan army immediately went to check, and soon they came back to report.

"Lord Qiyu, it's the Goryeo people there, who are burning, killing and looting, collecting grain, grass and women." Scouts report back.

"Bastard thing! This group of damned Goryeo barbarians. ”

Hama scolded.

The Goryeo people were reinforcements from the Goryeo Kingdom invited by the Empress Dowager.

As the hardcore dogs of the Yuan Dynasty, the Goryeo people are far from being able to show their loyalty as they contribute grain and grass and women.

The Goryeo Kingdom has sent troops twice in a row to help the Yuan Dynasty suppress the Red Turban Army.

Hama had already regarded Shandong as his private property, and some thieves in Haiyang County had allowed these Koreans to take this opportunity to burn and loot in Shandong, but it was his Hama's property that was burned.

It's just that for these Koreans, Hama has no choice.

As the saying goes, listening to the tune and not listening to the announcement.

These Goryeo soldiers came on the orders of the Empress Dowager, so for Hama, they were only a cooperative relationship, and they could not command it all.

To the east of Haiyang County.

Puffs of smoke rose into the sky, and the screams of terrible women echoed through the village.

"Hahaha, happy."

"Kill all these men, and take all the women back to the barracks."

"Useless old things, throw them in the fire and burn them to death."

A Goryeo army general stood in the thick flames and shouted.

The high-collared soldiers around him had fallen into a frenzy.

They deal with these defenseless ordinary people, one by one, full of ferocity.

With the burning of the Goryeo soldiers, the entire villages and towns in the east of Haiyang County were reduced to a scorched earth.

These ordinary people are actually great good people, and when Liu Sangui's rebel army rose, they did not follow these rebel armies, but treated them as ordinary people one by one.

Their goal is nothing more than to save their lives.

When the rebels arose, they were killed, robbed, and their houses burned.

When the Meng Yuan army came, they were not killed, robbed, or burned to the house.

On the contrary, soon after the arrival of these Koreans, the local people were brutalized one after another.

The people who were lucky enough to save their lives fled to the deep mountains and dense forests one by one.

They have no food, and no one knows how long they will be able to spend in a forest full of snakes, insects, rats and ants.

After burning, killing and looting, these Koreans returned to the barracks satisfied.

The looted women were also divided among them one by one, and soon after, the women's wails were remembered in the Goryeo military camp.

"These damn Central Plains people are so poor, except for a little food, they don't have any gold and silver treasures at all." Goryeo general Park Dehuan looked at the seized looted goods and said dissatisfied.

Another general, Kim Seung-deok, the deputy general of the Goryeo Army, also said beside him.

"I heard that there are a lot of gold and silver treasures accumulated by thieves in Haiyang County, if we can attack Haiyang County, we will be able to make a windfall."

"Alas, it's just a pity, Hama refuses to attack the city, and has to wait for the defenders to surrender, it's just a pipe dream, these thieves are all damned, they should immediately attack the city and slaughter the city for three days."

Park Dehuan said dissatisfied.

Today, the Empress Dowager Qi of Goryeo is already the nominal supreme ruler of the Great Yuan Dynasty.

The identity of the Empress Dowager Korea. It made other Koreans feel that they were on the rise, especially these Goryeo soldiers and generals who were ordered to come to Shandong to capture bandits.

They regard themselves as more upscale than the Mongols and Han Chinese.

Regarding the military order of Shandong Prime Minister Hama, the generals of the Goryeo Army, Park Dehuan, Kim Chengdeok, and others simply listened to it if they wanted to, and they didn't listen to it if they didn't want to.

In this way, Hama is not easy to get along with.

He ordered the men to mix a lot of hands and feet in the military rations given to the Koreans.

Either the amount of military rations is insufficient, or the grain is mixed with a lot of wood chips, sand and other debris.

As a result, the Goryeo army began to plunder the surrounding villages and towns with impunity.

After the Shandong Yuan army and the Goryeo divided the defense line, they were in a situation where no one cared about each other.

Regarding the burning and looting of the Koreans on their own territory, Hama was angry in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.

At this time, a scout suddenly came and reported.

"There are quite a few thieves in the south." Said the charcoal eating horse.

"Where did the thieves come from? The biggest thief was trapped in Haiyang County by this official, and he should be a bandit who came out of nowhere. Hama said indifferently.

Especially when he heard that there were only a few dozen people in this gang of thieves, Hama didn't care at all.

He sent a troop of cavalry, about a hundred people, to surround and suppress this scattered group of thieves.

The name of the general of more than 100 people is Wang Side, and he is the son of the Han people in Yunzhou.

Wang Side received Hama's military order, took the hundred cavalry, and left the barracks in a hurry, heading straight for the group of sporadic thieves in the south.

Following the scout's instructions, they came to an important traffic artery.

Wang Side climbed the hillside and looked south, and sure enough, he saw a group of sporadic thieves.

There were about a dozen people, and a few horses.

"It really looks like a bunch of bandits." Wang Side smiled confidently.

According to the usual practice, it is not necessary to dispatch more than a hundred people to deal with such a small number of bandits.

A dozen cavalrymen was sufficient.

"It's been boring for so many days, so I can move my muscles and bones." Wang Side smiled as he asked his soldiers to put on his armor, and then led the cavalry to rush forward.

But when they got closer and closer, Wang Side suddenly had a bad premonition.

Because he found that these bandits and bandits did not panic, nor did they run away in fright.

Instead, he mounted his horse unhurriedly and then retreated to the rear.

Even when he retreated, he looked back at Wang Side and them.

Looking at their appearance, it seemed that they were deliberately luring Wang Side into their pursuit.

"It's strange, are the thieves in Shandong stupid?"

"Can't you see that Lao Tzu is an elite?"

Wang Side couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Under Wang Side's pursuit, this group of thieves quickly retreated several miles away.

Wang Side led his own soldiers to chase wildly, and when he turned a corner, he suddenly saw a large number of infantry and flags emerging in front of him.

When the prince saw the big "Zhu" on the red flag in front of him, he couldn't believe his eyes.

"What!? This, this, how is this possible? Wang Side couldn't help but let out a trembling sound

�。

As the son of the Marquis of the Han Army, Wang Side was once a member of the Praetorian Guard of the Mengyuan Emperor.

In this way, Wang Side naturally participated in the battle of Hongze Lake.

For the flag of the Red Turban Army, there is also the bright red vermilion flag.

Wang Side is like a dream demon, often appearing in dreams late at night, and every time Wang Side will scare out of a cold sweat.

Just when Wang Side and the others were stunned, the army in front suddenly gave an order, and the cavalry rushed out from both wings and pounced on Wang Side and them.

Seeing this, Wang Side shouted that it was not good.

By the time he wanted to turn around and run away, it was indeed too late.

There were also many ambushes in the mountains and forests on both sides.

surrounded Wang Side and a dozen other cavalrymen.

A black-faced red turban army general rode a tall horse and rushed to Wang Side and others. He waved the spear in his hand and shouted.

"The Tartars dismount quickly and surrender."

Chang Yuchun's loud reprimand was like a thunderbolt, which scared Wang Side so much that he almost fell off his horse.
