    "Lord"

    Wang Haoran was very excited when he saw Yu Guozhen

    It was the first time that he took charge of the battle alone. Although the process had some twists and turns, and the war changed from the positional battle he originally expected to a flood battle, he still won in the end, and it was a great victory.

    "Brother Zheng, you did a great job this time. If you play chess, your ability to adapt to the situation is top-notch." Yu Guozhen gave him a thumbs up.

    Originally, Yu Guozhen thought that if Wang Haoran could persist until his reinforcements arrived, then he would have completed his mission, but he never thought that when he arrived, he was just here to clean the battlefield. Naturally, he would not hesitate to praise him. As for the damage to the people caused by the flooding,  , he also asked Wang Haoran to register them all, and then arranged for people to be responsible for relief and compensation.

    This matter cannot be delayed. In Yu Guozhen's view, it is as important as the war.

    Especially the mud and drowned people and animals in summer can easily cause plague and must be dealt with properly. Wang Haoran heard what he said and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my lord, I have already made a plan. When the soldiers go to clean the battlefield, I can also  I¡¯m not idle, but I¡¯m afraid I¡¯m going to break my promise and gain weight.¡±

    "oh?"

    "When I said that all Gao Jie and Liu Liangzuo's troops would be executed, it was just for their massacre of the people. It was during the war, but I'm afraid that can't be the case at this time. The number of surrendered people currently counted has exceeded 20,000. I am going to organize these prisoners.  , clearing out the mud and burying the corpses.¡±

    "You did the right thing." Yu Guozhen thought for a while: "However, the previous execution order cannot be canceled immediately. In this way, the people and prisoners in the four villages will be reported. Anyone who kills the people will be punished by the officers and the sergeants.  torture, and the rest will be punished with hard labor.¡±

    The entire Shandong Peninsula is now a huge construction site, but it must be admitted that this construction site does not have much output yet. It can be said that whether it is building railways or ordinary roads, it supports the construction of the peninsula.  They only have long-term strategic significance, but there are not many immediate practical benefits. Yu Guozhen has been notified that there are many factories and farms under the Xiang system, and the people are beginning to complain. They feel that the local infrastructure that Xiang currently controls is incomplete and there is no  It is necessary to invest so much manpower and material resources in Shandong Peninsula

    This is human nature. Yu Guozhen knew that it was impossible to eliminate such voices by completely suppressing them. However, relying only on talking about truth and persuasion was just like trying to satisfy one's hunger. The most important thing was to let Xiang people know that all this is true in Shandong.  real benefits

    Since ancient times, the Chinese people have had the traditional virtue of being eager for justice and justice, which is also one of the core factors that constitute the Chinese orthodoxy. However, the Chinese people cannot compromise their right to survival and development because of their eagerness for justice and justice.  Yu Guozhen did not want to cede power to other races, especially those who were hostile to China. Yu Guozhen did not want to raise Xiang people as Song Xianggong. Therefore, in his letter back to Zhang Chi, he emphasized the need to promote righteousness and support Shandong.  National justice, secondly, we must publicize the huge benefits that Shandong can bring to Xiang

    Righteousness and benefit should always go hand in hand. Choosing righteousness from relics can only be chosen when it is impossible to have both, and it can only be a short-term choice.

    The coal mines in Shandong have been developed very early, and there are also many quartz mines. The mineral reserves of graphite, gypsum and other materials that are needed now are huge mineral resources. In addition, the climate in Shandong is suitable for cotton cultivation.  Potatoes can also grow well here, so as long as transportation is convenient, this place can become a model for the Xiang system in the north.

    And when the world will eventually return to peace, with Shandong as the base, Xiang's products will penetrate into every corner of the north as the roads extend, stimulating all the activities in the Central Plains and turning them into endless wealth - both  Both material and spiritual

    "Who is this one?" Wang Haoran accepted the order happily. Then he saw Yan Yingyuan being escorted by the tiger guards and asked curiously

    "This is Mr. Yan Yan Yingyuan, named Liheng. He was originally from Tongzhou, the capital. Later he lived in seclusion in Jiangyin, but was invited by Liu Liangzuo to be the mastermind." Yu Guozhen said with a smile: "It was he who came up with the plan to flood Yanzhou. Fortunately  You figured it out early and took advantage of it, otherwise this battle will still have to be fought."

    "Even if he floods Yanzhou, he won't be able to break the city for a while. The lord should be near here. It won't be a problem to hold on for two or three days." Wang Haoran said with a smile: "However, this Mr. Yan just watched in front of the formation  He can think of a flood plan after just one lap, but he is a resourceful and wise man."

    "Humph" Yan Yingyuan snorted coldly

    "It seems that Mr. Yan is not convinced yet?" Wang Haoran also has a fierce temper. Otherwise, he would not abandon his status as the county's guest of honor and go to Xiang to join Yu Guozhen, and would not abandon his leisurely scientific research work to join Huwei.  Got it

    "If the soldiers I lead are half as elite as the Tiger Guards and have equivalent equipment, I will definitely defeat you." Yan Yingyuan was certainly not convinced.

    "WeMy father-in-law often said that war is always a contest of comprehensive strength." Wang Haoran said proudly: "My overall strength is stronger than yours. If you are not convinced, it's a simple matter. Come and help our lord, take a look.  Under the same circumstances, whether you have done more merit or I have done more.¡±

    Yan Yingyuan almost said "Okay" at that moment. He was already easily provoked, but soon he realized that Wang Haoran had other intentions when he said these words in front of Yu Guozhen.

    "Humph" he just responded with a cold snort

    "I'm going to Liaocheng immediately. Li Chuang has already begun to besiege the city." Yu Guozhen said, "I'll leave the matter here to you. Brother Zheng, and Mr. Yan, will also be left under your care. Let him see the captured  The families of the people Gao Jie slaughtered should get to know what kind of people he helped, and when they were ready, they would send him to Qingdao Port and put him in Yicheng first."

    "Jiang'an will definitely nag, and everyone will go to him," Wang Haoran said with a smile.

    "Wait a minute, Jiang An?" Yan Yingyuan originally didn't want to talk to him, but when he heard the name, his heart moved, and he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Jiang Anis he the one named Xi Shuang?"

    Yu Guozhen was a little surprised. Although Jiang An was very famous within Xiang, how did Yan Yingyuan know his name?

    "It's him. Mr. Yan has an old relationship with Jiang An?" Yu Guozhen's heart moved. If the two of them had a relationship, it would be convenient to arrange it.

    "We met him once in the capital in the ninth year of Chongzhen No wonder, no wonder, at that time he was promoting Di Gong wine, which is said to be produced in Cochin"

    Yan Yingyuan couldn't help but think of what happened seven years ago. He never thought that the young man he met in the capital at that time was actually Yu Guozhen's subordinate. Judging from the tone of Yu Guozhen and Wang Haoran, his status was quite high.

    "Oh, since the ninth year of Chongzhen, Jiang'an has gone to Tamluo and has been operating on Tamluo Island to this day. Now he is the governor of Tamluo under the rule of Xiang. He is in charge of Korea and Japanese affairs. Yicheng is under his rule. Since Mr. Yan and  He has old friends, so it would be great to meet old friends over there."

    Although Yan Yingyuan is stubborn, he is not a fool, and the distinction between China and Yi is very important in this person's heart. Yu Guozhen firmly believes that although he is loyal to the Ming Dynasty, he will never be loyal to the small imperial court of Jinling. Of course, this person is still capable, so he was sent to Tamluo Island.  Go, and he cannot be allowed to meet Chongzhen for the time being, otherwise he will get excited and encourage Chongzhen to flee, which will be bad.

    The military situation was urgent. After deciding on the matter, Yu Guozhen was about to leave to chat. At this moment, the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded.

    "My lord, captured Liu Liangzuo and Gao Jie alive"

    It was Li Qingshan who came, his face was full of joy, and he was still far away with two guards. He raised his voice and shouted. Hearing the news he had delivered, the whole city was filled with cheers. Not only was the Tiger Guard paying high compensation, but also Yanzhou  The people in the city were also happy from the bottom of their hearts.

    ?? Whoever thinks about the people, Huwei or Jinling¡¯s small court, will have their own reputation in the hearts of the people.

    Yan Yingyuan originally wanted to sigh when he got the news. This was something he expected. After such a tragic defeat, it was a miracle that Liu Liangzuo and Gao Jie could escape. But before he could sigh, he was stopped by the thunderous cheers of the people in the city.  He stared blankly at the ecstatic people around him. This was what he saw with his own eyes. Without any force from the Tiger Guards, or even a hint, the people began to cheer for the Tiger Guards' victory.

    At this moment, a sentence suddenly came to Yan Yingyuan¡¯s mind: He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world

    He raised his eyes and looked at Yu Guozhen. Yu Guozhen also had a look of joy on his face, but it was very light. It seemed that he had caught only two ordinary generals, not the two important generals of the Jinling court who had provoked the war.

    "After the public trial of these two people, the verdict was announced," Yu Guozhen said: "I will not see them anymore, and I will try to keep Li Zicheng here too this time."

    After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and led the guards out of the city without stopping for a moment. Yan Yingyuan knew that it was definitely not because of the military emergency, because he just said that Li Chuang's demeanor was very relaxed when he attacked Liaocheng. It was clearly because he simply  It doesn¡¯t matter that the four towns in Jiangbei are in my eyes.

    No wonder he started building relief organizations in Shandong with only more than 20,000 troops.

    The reason why Yu Guozhen left in such a hurry was indeed not because he was afraid that Li Chuang would attack Liaocheng. The terrain of Liaocheng was easier to defend than Yanzhou. Although there were not too many troops, it was relatively close to Jinan. When Li Chuang's reconnaissance cavalry appeared on the side of the canal, Ji'nan  Zhang Bingwen in Nanfu had already organized the nearby Tiger Guards and militiamen and sent them to aid Liaocheng.

    Whether it was Li Chuang, Zu Kuan, Gao Jie or Liu Liangzuo, they all made a fatal strategic mistake, which was to capture the heavily guarded fortified city. In fact, although Yu Guozhen's troops were dispersed, they were able to gather them because of his powerful intelligence and transportation.  , the reaction is very fast, so the attack on the fortified city loses its suddenness, and you will face an extremely armed defense, unless you want to go out like Yan Yingyuan.The strategy of flooding the city, otherwise the coalition forces lacking heavy artillery will still be beaten to death in front of the city defense.

    There was a journey of three to four hundred miles from Yanzhou to Liaocheng. When Li Zicheng got the news from Yanzhou, it was already four days later. He threw the military report in his hand on the ground angrily, opened the curtain and strode out of the camp, swearing angrily.  : "Waste, waste"

    He knew what situation he would face. The defeat of the three towns meant that he would face Yu Guozhen's wrath alone. Looking at Liaocheng in the distance, he suddenly thought of Li Yanlai.

    "Fight or retreat?"
