I have a cornucopia

Chapter 43 Chasing and Killing
  "These guys seem a little suspicious of me. What's wrong?"

Yang Feng looked at Song Jicheng's leaving figure and touched his chin with a deep expression.

In fact, it is normal to doubt...

These are all old foxes!

In fact, those who support him, such as Fang Kezhuang and others, all doubt him. After all, there are too many mysteries in him. As for the nonsense about meeting gods and immortals, it is okay for an ignorant young man, so don't lie to these old foxes. You can laugh at these old guys for their incompetence in running the country and fighting poorly, but you can't underestimate their minds that have been developed through decades of intrigue and intrigue.

They're just a problem with the butt, not the head.

Including Lao Zhang, who had just been devoured.

Is Lao Zhang stupid?

He is not stupid!
  If the Qing army hadn't left and returned, he would still have taken back his money.

He knew those young men couldn't resist.

As a powerful local family, he knew that if nothing unexpected happened, he would be able to cover the sky with one hand in the local area. Since he could cover the sky with one hand, why should he care about the feelings of these unruly people?
  Do they hate?
  What else can they do but hate?
  Do they dare to risk their whole family for that one person's ten taels of silver?

The most they could do was scold him and his son behind his back.

As for the Qing army's departure and return, this can only be said to be unlucky for his father and son.

If these same old guys who have been scheming all their lives could be deceived by Yang Feng's lies, they would have died in the court struggle long ago. Fang Kezhuang is at the Tiangang level recorded by Donglin Dianjiang, and Jiu Qiansui is also a real fierce fight. of. The reason why Song Mei was dismissed from office was because she failed to enter the cabinet in the court recommendation. It is said that when Chongzhen summoned her, she said something that made Chongzhen unhappy. Chongzhen dismissed her from office on the charge of being a clique. She almost entered the cabinet.

It's not easy to deceive these people with Yang Feng's lies that are full of loopholes.

but……

As long as it works!
  He is useful to these guys now!
  Besides, do they have a better choice?
  Sons of aristocratic families, although this family can only be said to be from a humble family compared with them, but they are still from a humble family, and they are also from the Shandong gentry group. Those who have fame and fame, even if they are a scholar, have entered the category of human beings for these gentry. Not a big animal anymore. He can fight, he can fight very well. It doesn't matter whether he uses magic or magic. The most important thing is that he can preserve the land and wealth of the gentry. Such a good target of funding is really a pie from the sky, otherwise who would they support, those warriors who only know how to burn, kill and loot? Those talkative scholars who can't kill the enemy at all? There is really no better choice than Yang Feng, and nothing else matters.

The Ming Dynasty has reached this point, how can it care about anything else?

Liu Zeqing knew that the Ming Dynasty would not last five years.

Don't they know?

Troubled times...

It’s already a troubled time.

In troubled times, Shandong has always been indispensable for killing people into mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

Everyone needs to prepare early.

The next day, the losses in Laiyang were cleared, and more than 7,000 people died in total, including many women who committed suicide because they thought they were hopeless. The worst among the gentry was Dong Qiao and his brother-in-law Jiang's family, with more than 20 people dead, and officials The biggest one was Song Yingheng, a younger brother of Song Jicheng, who was formerly a doctor in the Literary and Selection Department of the fifth-grade official department. Yang Feng generously donated 10,000 taels for relief, and then each family had to also donate money for relief. In the afternoon of the same day, Yang Feng received news of the retreating Qing army. The latter briefly looted the Pingdu area, but was defeated by Li Fuming and Xue Minzhong, and then continued south to meet with the main force led by Abatai. After the meeting, the total strength of the Qing army exceeded 30,000, and they also drove away hundreds of thousands of prisoners. Among them, the men were forcibly shaved, but their attack on Gaomi still failed.

Although Yang Daxun, Xue Minzhong, and Li Fuming did not dare to fight with them, they did dare to attack from behind.

They attack Gaoden.

Gaomi City defended desperately.

Then Yang Daxun's three troops outside kept attacking their perimeter.

They mobilized a large army to beat these three families, but the latter hid in Anqiu and could not come out of Pingdu City. Abatai could only divide his troops to watch them, but in this way he would not have enough ability to attack the city, and the food in his hands would be getting worse. Come less and less.

I wanted to plunder from the outside, but there was nothing I could easily capture.

Yang Feng watched from Laiyang in the north.

To the west are the three general soldiers.

To the south are Rizhao and Juzhou, which are heavily guarded, and there is nothing to rob, because the people in these two places have been evacuated into the mountains. In both places, only the defenders are inside. In Juzhou, Jing Shufan, Zhuang Nai and others are still there. People are guarding. Rizhao was Hu Ranyue who came north from Andongwei. In addition, because he was worried about his combat effectiveness, Yang Feng asked Cao Wusheng to lead his men there. In addition, thousands of young men were organized locally.

Now Abatai is obviously surrounded...

At least on the surface.

But everyone actually understands that this encirclement is just paper. It is easy for him to retreat. The group of 30,000 Qing troops cannot stop him even if all the troops from the north of the Ming Dynasty are mobilized at this time.

Therefore, Fan Zhiwan also gave orders to all armies to focus on defense as much as possible.

Anyway, spring is almost here.

Abatai must withdraw from Shandong before the river thaws.

The temperature at this time is thawed in mid-March.

No need to complicate things.

Five days later.

Arrive in Laiyang on the seventh day.

In fact, there are still more than six.

The two brothers are the grandsons of Qi Jiguang, and the Yu family is from Zhaoyuan. They are the owners of large gold mines in the Qixia area, and their subordinates are all gold miners. However, after the Kong Youde Rebellion, the order in the Dengzhou area collapsed, and they who are engaged in gold mining are not good people in the first place. …     How can there be any good people who do this?

To be able to control the gold mining industry, first of all, one must dare to kill people and set fires.

Under this situation, they can actually be said to be an armed group with the gold mining industry as its backbone, but they have a good relationship with the gentry. In a sense, they are more like the force in the hands of the Jiaodong gentry. After all, the gold mining industry requires food, and the food is in the hands of the gentry. Likewise, the gentry also needs the gold they pan out. Of course, they will not do this kind of hard work themselves. The two brothers took more than 2,000 people to Laiyang, of course they were volunteers, and then together with Yang Feng, they escorted 230,000 taels of silver south. However, before they set off, they had already received news of Abatai's withdrawal. The latter first withdrew the soldiers and horses outside Jiaozhou City. After meeting in Gaomi, he used the Qing army to drive away the captured slaves, and the latter drove their livestock for them. The livestock carried the plundered gold and silver treasures, and even women, and then formed a huge formation and set off to retreat from Gaomi.

None of Yang Daxun's three troops dared to intercept them, but simply allowed them to pass before leaving the city to follow them.

Fan Zhiwan stayed in Qingzhou.

The danger is not over.

If given the chance, the Qing army would still attack the city.

Their route passed between Wei County and Changyi and then towards Shouguang.

Changyi had been massacred long ago.

But Shouguang didn't.

The bank of Weihe River.

Yang Feng held up the eight-fold mirror and looked at the Qing army passing through the ice in the distance.

Even on such a large plain, this huge army of more than 100,000 people, especially with a large number of livestock, still stretches for more than ten miles. The outermost layer of them is the Qing cavalry, and they are divided into rangers. And maintain the formation, or escort. The rangers are responsible for blocking the Ming army, or raiding nearby cities. This place is different from Juzhou. It is a pure plain, and the people have no other choice but to hide in the city. Therefore, once a city is captured, the harvest will be huge, and the Qing army who is short of food will still give it a try if they have the opportunity.

"Yang Shengyuan?"

Yu Qi looked at him with questioning eyes.

"and many more."

Yang Feng said.

Yu Qi's brothers were all infantrymen, so it was difficult to achieve the effect he wanted.

"There are officers and soldiers coming from behind."

a soldier suddenly shouted.

"it's OK now."

Yang Feng said with satisfaction.

It's Du Li.

When Yang Feng left Laiyang, he sent a letter to Du Li in Huang County, asking the latter to bring cavalry over.

"Take your people and wait for the cavalry to come. I will be responsible for charging the prisoners. Then you will be responsible for rescuing people. Tell those who have shaved their heads that as long as they make it clear that they are good citizens who were captured, nothing will happen. If you are willing to kill the enemy, you will be rewarded. are equally rewarded."

Yang Feng said.

After saying that, he jumped off the horse and picked up his new weapon...

Of course Whirlwind is out of gas.

So he stuffed it back directly. Even if it was returned to the gods, it was lent to him by the gods. Of course he had to return it after using it, but he kept the chain saw blade. This thing was surprisingly useful, and Yang Feng still had it in Laiyang. Some minor modifications have been made to it. To put it simply, a hammer head is added to the front, and it is studded with triangular nails, so this thing already has a game-like look.

As for new weapons…

The new weapon was not from time travel, but was specially made by him in Laiyang.

To put it simply, it is an iron rod with five claws on the front to simulate the shape of a hand, except that the middle finger is a one-foot-long triangular pyramid in front, the index finger, ring finger and little finger are bent into a hook, and the thumb is pointed outward, which is also a triangular pyramid. Pyramid, as for the palm, it is specially thickened, like a flattened hammer head. The whole thing is solid, made of the best Su steel, one and a half meters long, and very heavy. So with his armor, the war horse is already overwhelmed, and it can carry him while marching. It will definitely not be able to withstand a charge. of.

As for the name of the weapon, he just called it Lao. It didn't matter what the real Lao looked like. In his hand, it was called Lao.

"Feng Sheng, this is..."

Du Li came galloping on horseback from behind, pointing at his companions and shouting.

"Let's talk later!"

Yang Feng shouted.

After saying that, he held up two iron fists in front of the astonished eyes from behind, and rushed forward like an excited silverback gorilla.

The Qing army in front had already separated a group to warn them. These people were probably far away and did not see who he was. They immediately urged their horses to move forward to meet the enemy. However, the two sides soon got closer to less than 100 meters. The Qing army general led by But he suddenly stopped. He looked at Yang Feng who was holding two iron guns and rushing toward him like a hug with tearless eyes. Then he turned back and looked at the more than a hundred cavalry behind him...

"withdraw!"

He said without hesitation.

More than a hundred cavalry to face this demon-like man?

Are you kidding me?
  Without a comprehensive review, it would be suicide to face him.
