So for Zhu Dadian, he is not a soft persimmon, whoever wants to pinch it, he is a man who knows how to fight.The reason why people were called to discuss it was nothing more than to unify opinions, so after he rejected the proposal of the Shandong General Army, he immediately proposed that all the soldiers from all over the province, no matter how many, should be assembled in Jinan Prefecture immediately. With one soldier and one soldier, he will fight to the death with Li Kaiguo under the city of Jinan Prefecture.

Crazy, Zhu Dadian is crazy, this is the only sentence in the minds of all Shandong officials attending the meeting.All the soldiers in Shandong are concentrated in Jinan Prefecture. Doesn't that mean that the entire Shandong province will be abandoned and only Jinan Prefecture will be left?At that time, if Li Jianguo didn't come to Jinan Mansion, but sent troops to various states and counties, wouldn't it be easy to occupy a large area?

As an official, there is a principle of guarding the land. If you really lose this large piece of land and the court blames it, it will not be enough to kill Zhu Dadian, and all the officials will be implicated by him.

But Zhu Dadian insisted on going his own way, as if he didn't understand anything that even a three-year-old child could understand. Official documents for dispatching troops were sent to the whole of Shandong like a snowflake, requesting that, except for Dengzhou and Weihaiwei, All guards, salt roads, military preparation roads, and township regiments in each prefecture rushed to Jinan Prefecture within [-] days, and those who did not arrive within the time limit were considered rebels.

As soon as this official document came out, there was an uproar in Shandong, and everyone thought Zhu Dadian was indeed crazy.Five days later, at the court meeting in the capital, the censors and censors submitted papers one after another, preparing their remarks on this matter, all in one tone, demanding that Zhu Dadian be immediately removed from the post of governor of Shandong and called back to Beijing for punishment.

At first, everyone thought that as soon as these excerpts were heard by Datian, Emperor Chongzhen would be furious and lock Zhu Dadian into Beijing.But the strange thing is that Emperor Chongzhen didn't respond at all, and neither did the cabinet. In the entire court, except for the censors who yelled, not a single important minister said anything about it.As if this incident was a joke, no one mentioned it again.

The days passed by in this very strange situation.The entire province of Shandong is very peaceful, except for the soldiers who are rushing on the official road.

What is very strange is that the Lingshan Guards are also very calm, neither seeing Li Kaiguo gathering troops.There are also a large number of scouts coming and going to check.This made the military officers and civilian officials who had been prepared for war very anxious.After all, there are still five days before the [-]th day. If we wait until the [-]th day to act, I am afraid that the Ming court will really send reinforcements by then, and Jinan Mansion will be in trouble.

Wei Chuping stared at the officers in the room, and shouted, "It's useless for you to surround me. If you have anything to do, you can ask the adults."

The thousands of households of each thousand households team laughed together and said: "Mr. Wei, we are all big bosses. You see, we can even make our husband angry. If we really go to see the adults, the adults will not treat us Killed them all."

Wei Chuping was so angry that he gasped, and shouted: "You dare not ask, do I dare to ask? Your lord's temper. It's not like you don't know. You all know the fate of Magistrate Gu. Who dares to plot against your lord?" There is no good fruit to eat. I am no exception. Go out, all out, anyway, I dare not ask, why don't you go and ask Mr. Feng, he is old, maybe you can get some news from him."

The magistrate of Gu County is the magistrate of Lingshanwei County. On the third day he tried Li Jianguo, Li Jianguo found an excuse to remove him from the post of county magistrate, promote him to Cong Liupin, and give him a new position, public toilet officer, He is required to build a public toilet for every 500 people in the territory controlled by Li Kaiguo within half a year.

After the public toilets are built, special personnel must be sent to clean them, and they must be cleaned every day.This move was so ruthless that County Magistrate Gu got a new nickname overnight, County Magistrate Yexiang.The literati all had the same name, Li Jianguo's move was too ruthless, and he completely ruined Gu County Magistrate's reputation for nearly 40 years.

Since he knew about the appointment, the county magistrate Gu fell ill and was bedridden, so he resigned from office.But Li Jianguo disagreed. He said clearly in front of many people: "This public toilet official must be him. Isn't he sick now? It doesn't matter. As long as he doesn't die, he will take office when he recovers. The official will keep it for him for a lifetime."

So at this time when Wei Chuping brought up the fate of County Magistrate Gu, the officers were all terrified. Afterwards, everyone knew what Magistrate Gu did. , but now it is more uncomfortable than death, everyone really dare not make the same mistakes again.

As for going to find Feng Guoyong, that is even more useless. Feng Guoyong has been cautious in his words and deeds since the last incident, and he has not formed a party or exceeded his authority. Although he is still trusted by Li Jianguo on the surface, it is not as good forward.Therefore, the officials of Lingshan Guard had no choice but to calm down.

This makes many interested people unable to understand. First, they cannot understand Lingshanwei, and second, they cannot understand the imperial court.And things get weirder as the date gets closer.

Ma Ying knocked on the door lightly until she heard the words: "Come in." Then she bowed her body and entered the study.In the study, Li Jianguo was writing something.He didn't look up when Ma Ying came in, but just said lightly: "Any news?"

Ma Ying shook his head and said: "My lord, my subordinates are useless, and there is no news at all." Li Jianguo put down his pen, smiled, and said: "It seems that there are still capable people in the court." He waved his hand, Said: "On Hebei, Henan, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, you only need to send a small number of people to pay attention. Next, focus on the route of entering Liaodong, and pay attention to the movement of the cavalry."

Ma Ying was startled, and said: "My lord, the imperial court will not really send the Liaodong cavalry to come. Could it be that the Tartars from Ningyuan..." When he said this, he immediately realized that he had made a slip of the tongue.

Li Kaiguo smiled faintly, and said: "That's right, the Tatars are busy fighting among themselves. Only you and I, Emperor Chongzhen and the cabinet know about this news. Zhu Dadian doesn't know who gave him such boldness, but The person behind the scenes is truly a formidable enemy."

As he spoke, he walked to the map of Shandong, pointed at Shandong and said with a smile: "You said, we only have [-] soldiers, can we eat the whole province of Shandong?" language.Li Jianguo didn't blame him, and waved him back.

Ever since Zhu Dadian came up with this stupid trick of concentrating the entire province's soldiers in Jinan Mansion, Li Jianguo felt something was wrong.The next reaction of Ming Ting made him feel even more dangerous, and he had a faint feeling that someone was plotting against him behind the scenes.There is no question about this person.He is a member of the imperial court, and can be trusted by the suspicious Emperor Chongzhen, and can instruct the Ming army to trap and kill him behind the scenes. Who is this person?

At first, he suspected that it was Chen Qiyu, the governor of the five provinces who was besieging the rogues.However, the information sent by Ma Ying led him to deny this.Just when Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai, Li Zicheng and other troops entered Hannan, soldiers from the seven provinces gathered to besiege. Even if Chen Qiyu had three heads and six arms, he could no longer take care of Shandong.So who else can come up with this idea?

Li Jianguo would never believe that Zhu Dadian dared to use such a blatant trick to lure the enemy without relying on him.Although this strategy seems to be harmless as long as it is seen through on the surface, Li Jianguo feels that this is not the case. He even feels that it is not a group of people who plot against him.Possibly two groups.

This is a faint reminder of the ability, but it is not complete.Li Jianguo only knew that if he did not deal with it carefully, there would be a great danger this time. As for where the danger came from.Then it depends on Ma Ying's ability.Li Jianguo made up his mind and didn't know it.He will never send troops.

a month ago.There was an incident at Bi Maokang's house, which was not a big deal, but a thief.After checking by Bi's family, they didn't find anything missing, so they didn't report it to the authorities.

But five days later, the family members of the Bi family suddenly found out.The woman they have been taking care of has disappeared, but in fact it can't be called missing. The woman left a note, saying that it is a great kindness.There will definitely be a re-report in the future. Her injuries have recovered and she has gone home.

At the beginning, many generals came to inquire about the situation of the woman who was knocked into a coma by Li Jianguo all day long, but after two months, the woman did not wake up, and gradually no one came.Moreover, Li Jianguo never asked about the situation of the woman, so the family members of the Bi family have been taking care of it. After all, it is a human life. I hope that the woman will wake up that day.

The missing incident was later reported to Bi Maokang. At this time, Bi Maokang was concentrating on the modification of the artillery. He could not take care of this matter, so he said casually: "Let's go."

This matter was suppressed like this, and no one thought of reporting it to Li Jianguo.Perhaps they subconsciously hoped that this beautiful and unearthly woman could live safely, and once they reported it to Li Jianguo, they were afraid that the woman's life would be gone.As a result, no one knew where the woman had gone, and no one tracked it down.

The door of Li Kaiguo's study opened, and a binoculars five miles away suddenly hung down and stopped watching.Immediately the telescope was put away by the owner, and the owner just took a light step and jumped off the dead tree on the mountain.

This is a small mountain, five miles away from Lingshanwei. Although the Commander's Mansion can be seen from here, people can't see clearly.Fortunately, Li Jianguo's clothes are special, and he can barely recognize who it is.

Knowing that Li Jianguo had left the study, the owner of the binoculars immediately rushed to the commander's mansion as quickly as possible. Half an hour later, a handyman appeared outside the study with a cleaning tool in his hand to clean up the dirt on the ground.Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one in the courtyard, in broad daylight, he sneaked into the study of the commander's mansion.

As soon as he entered the study, the handyman didn't move anything at all, just staring at Li Jianguo's map.After a long time, it seemed that after the map was completely written down, he carefully moved the papers in the study, and then carefully put them back to their original positions, before the handyman left secretly.As he came and went, no one in the Commander's Mansion found him.

But what is very strange is that Li Jianguo originally decided not to send troops until he found out the reason, but after the 16-day deadline passed, Zhu Dadian did not come to answer the hearing, and Li Jianguo immediately summoned the second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth A total of five teams of thousands of households set off from Lingshanwei on the [-]th. They were supplied with food and grass and escorted by [-] auxiliary soldiers. At the same time, the first artillery battalion also set off. The artillery battalion had [-] red cannons in total. One hundred Qianjin Fulang machine guns, and more than one hundred other small guns, set off with the brigade.

In the early morning of the first day of March, the 5000 cavalry of the 5000th Household Team of the forward marched first.A thousand scouts had already dispatched an hour ago, and they were within a hundred miles of Li Jianguo's request.Another hour later, a total of [-] Chinese troops, the first artillery battalion, and [-] auxiliary soldiers escorted the first batch of food and grass on the third, fourth, and fifth marches. The soldiers escorted the second batch of grain and grass to set off together.

The whole of Shandong was shaken. There was no news of Lingshan Guard mobilizing troops, horses, food and grass in advance, but in just one day, [-] soldiers, horses, food and grass could be ready for travel.This is simply beyond people's imagination.Such mobilization ability is unprecedented.

Don't think that soldiers and horses can be mobilized as soon as they are said to be mobilized, and food and grass can be transported as soon as they are said to be transported. Without careful and careful preparation in advance, this is simply impossible.Not to mention the weapons and armor of 5000 soldiers and horses, even if these soldiers and horses are gathered in one place, it cannot be completed in three to five days.There is also food and grass. The food that [-] people eat a day is a lot of expenses, plus the march of the army.The consumption has doubled, and the consumption of food and auxiliary troops is enough to make many generals feel heartbroken.

But the Lingshan Guards started shipping as soon as they talked about it, no matter how much food there was, it could do the same.You have to prepare chariots and horses, prepare manual handling, prepare marching routes and supply points...A myriad of things.Get it done in a day?

Many people don't believe this, it must be the secret preparations of the Lingshan Guards.until the time of departure.It just came out.Is it really the truth?

A woman in black was covered with a veil, still standing on a dead tree branch on a hill, looking at the commander's mansion with a binoculars.At this time, it was going to be dark soon, and the last [-]th household team and food and grass had already marched forty miles to set up camp.She should have been monitoring the march of the army, but she was still in Lingshanwei.

The reason for this is very simple, because Li Kaiguo is still in command of the emissary.That's right.Li Jianguo did not set off with the army, but stayed in Lingshanwei, which made the woman in black feel bad.The basis for the success of all her plans was Li Jianguo's departure from Lingshanwei.

As long as Li Kaiguo stays in Lingshanwei, even if Lingshanwei has only one thousand soldiers.She didn't dare to inform the army to do it.Just when she was anxious, a figure flashed in front of the binoculars, and Li Jianguo walked out of the room. Even though it was already dark, even if she was five miles away from the capital commander's mansion, the woman in black moved away immediately. Telescope, she dare not look directly at Li Jianguo, even if she observes with a telescope from a long distance.

She was really afraid of Li Jianguo, just like the last time, she didn't know how Li Jianguo found her. It is said that no one in the world should be able to see through her disguise, but Li Jianguo saw through it.Until now, she didn't know how Li Jianguo saw through it, so she was afraid that if she observed it with her eyes, Li Jianguo would find out that all the plans of the past month would come to nothing.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Li Jianguo's figure, watching his shadow disappear into the bedroom.The woman in black not only did not breathe a sigh of relief, but became even more anxious.

The woman in black said bitterly: "Damn Li Guo, why is he still staying in Lingshanwei? Did he really discover something?" According to past experience, as long as Li Jianguo enters the bedroom, basically he will not sleep until dawn. will leave the room.So the woman in black stayed for a while, then left the hill, submerging into the already dark night.

She didn't know that at this moment in Li Jianguo's bedroom, a binoculars was looking at her.Others can't see it when it's dark, but to his supernatural eyes, it's just cloudy, and everything is still very clear.Seeing the urgent look of the woman in black, Li Kaiguo smiled, and said to Feng Guoyong who was standing aside: "Go and inform the army, let them move forward slowly, no more than thirty miles a day."

Feng Guoyong nodded. At this time, he was dressed in the clothes of a servant, and he was ordered by Li Jianguo to leave Li Jianguo's bedroom with a footbath.

Early the next morning, Li Jianguo took Hai Lanzhu and Su Mo'er out and headed straight for the market.This was the first time in Lingshanwei. Everyone thought he had something to do, but what made people almost roll their eyes was that Li Jianguo was actually shopping with two girls.

He was really shopping, not acting. He took Hai Lanzhu and Su Mo'er to sweep through the streets. Some servants came forward to pay the bill.It cost 50 taels of silver for only one street, which made all the shops on the street look at Li Jianguo as if they were looking at a fool.

I have seen a person who spends money, but I have never seen a person who spends money without bargaining. This commander is simply the God of Wealth. Not only does he not bargain, but he doesn't care about the quality of things. hands.

Fortunately, no one dared to say that about Li Jianguo in person, and the day's activities ended in shopping.When he returned to the mansion, the things he bought were transported by two carriages.

This made Hai Lanzhu and Su Mo'er very happy, especially Hai Lanzhu. Although she is a smart and gentle Mongolian woman, she didn't understand why Li Kaihui suddenly took them shopping, and she was still with Su Mo. They discussed how to thank them later.

The dizzy Su Mo'er held a Jiangnan embroidery and agreed without thinking.But who would have thought that upon returning to the mansion, Li Jianguo, who was smiling at them just now, turned around as if he was a different person, and said to the housekeeper: "Dinner is brought to the study, and I will eat in the study." After finishing speaking, he left Yes, even ignored the two women.Hai Lanzhu and Su Mo'er stared blankly at Li Jianguo's back, full of puzzlement in their hearts, what kind of person is this, turning his face faster than turning a book.

The binoculars hung down, and the black-clothed woman on the dead tree had an evil face, and she didn't know why she was so angry.Damn Li Guo, actually really thinks that Jinan Mansion is as easy as finding something out of a bag. Not only is he not worried about the war, but he is in the mood to take women shopping.In this case, don't blame her for being cruel, and eat your 5000 troops first.The woman in black snorted coldly and drifted away.

But she didn't realize that she was also under Li Jianguo's observation at this time.Li Jianguo put down the binoculars and pondered for a long time.The reason why I took the two girls to go shopping today is to verify one thing.

It's a pity that until now, he has not figured out where the real crisis is.Is it in Jinan Prefecture, or in Lingshanwei?From his feeling, most of the danger is still in Lingshanwei.

Although he didn't know where the danger came from, because there was no army threatening Lingshanwei, the entire Shandong province had been thoroughly investigated by Ma Ying's spies, and even the neighboring Jiangsu and Hebei had sent people to guard it. At the border, there are no soldiers and horses entering the border of Shandong Province. Where does the danger come from? (to be continued..)
