    In late November, when you were the Censor of Qiandu, the governor of Huaiyang, and the Governor of Water Transport, Lu Zhenfei, learned that the bandits were besieging Kaifeng again, and that the vanguard of the bandits was even approaching from the east, he concluded that the bandits were besieging Xuzhou, and even  Cut off water transportation and attack Huai'an.  He immediately sent his generals to separate routes to defend the river, from Pizhou, Suining, Suqian to Shuyang, Taoyuan, Qinghe and other strata to set up defenses to support each other and build momentum.  Troops were sent to guard each fortress, and militia groups were organized between the Huaihe River and Huaihe River to recruit local warriors and reward them with cattle and wine.  Moreover, he made regulations that rural warriors would not be enlisted in the military, would not supervise forced drills, and would not be dispatched, but would only defend the countryside, and soon organized a military brigade numbering tens of thousands.  Lu Zhenfei is a very principled person. Generally speaking, those who need to be petitioned will be informed in full, and those who can be arbitrary will be implemented by legislation.  Matters that should be reported to superiors should always be reported to superiors for instructions before being handled, and never overstep the authority or level.  If the execution can be carried out within the scope of authority, the execution will be carried out immediately without delay.  Under his decision, although the rogue bandits became more and more powerful, the soldiers and people of the two Huaihe areas were very high-spirited and vowed not to let the rogue bandits enter Huai'an.  In December of the 14th year of Chongzhen, Governor Zhu Dadian failed to deal with thieves well and was dismissed from his post for investigation. He was appointed as the admiral of Fengyang.  However, in the 15th year of Chongzhen's reign, bandits trapped Hanshan and committed inaction. Governor Gao Douguang was accused of failing to supervise the army. In June of the 15th year, Ma Shiying was appointed as governor of Lufeng military affairs.  At this time, he was stationed in Fengyang Prefecture. Although Xuzhou was under the direct jurisdiction of Nanzhili, the military affairs were also under the control of Ma Shiying. When thieves continued to enter Xuzhou in November, Ma Shiying was worried.  At the beginning of December, he led deputy generals Yang Zhenzong and Zhuang Chaoliang, together with the general of the Forbidden Brigade, Degong, and the general Wang Jinggong. They led a total of 5,000 troops across the Huaihe River and entered Suzhou from Fengyang Fucheng.  But then large groups of thieves kept coming, and all the generals were afraid to enter. They stationed themselves at the Fuli Bridge and kept a wait-and-see attitude.  On the tenth day of December, Ma Shiying received a stern decree from the Ministry of War, ordering him to mobilize troops from Fenglu and other places to quickly rescue Xuzhou.  Ma Shiying hesitated a little, but still followed the order and sent a message to Sun Kewang, Huang Degong and others, inviting them to intercept the meeting and lead troops to rescue.  When the envoy he sent arrived in Shouzhou, Sun Kewang was taking Li Dingguo to inspect the areas under his jurisdiction with great ambition.  ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????mbmbmb  First he began to suppress bandits. Although he was a bandit, he showed no mercy to the bandits in the territory and had no "same clan" feelings at all. Under his ruthless methods, the local bandits disappeared, which not only made the local climate  Yixin also received a lot of money, food and materials.  He then actively sought the support of the local gentry, and was especially willing to support poor scholars. He also treated Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang, respectfully and showed no less filial piety during the holidays. He won the praise of local officials and businessmen, and the stain of being a thief was quickly washed away.  Economically, with the advantage of being close to Huai'an Prefecture, he actively sold private salt, smuggled a large amount of Huai salt, and used military escorts.  The number of troops under his command dedicated to smuggling was as high as 5,000, and the silver and grain obtained provided the soldiers with military supplies.  "Every soldier is given a liter of rice per day, and his family is given a dou of rice per month. If he gives birth to a child under one year old, he will be given half a cent per month, and if he is three years old, he will be given a liter of rice. If a soldier has a family, he will be given a robe in winter;  For each person in the family, a pair of shoes and socks, and a hat will be provided to each person. Li Dingguo remembered the recent incident of bandits approaching Xuzhou. He was about to speak. At this moment, the envoy sent by Ma Shiying rushed towards this direction.  After seeing off the messenger, Sun Kewang glanced at Li Dingguo beside him and said slowly: "What do you think, second brother?" Li Dingguo felt Sun Kewang's gaze and felt a chill in his heart. He felt that his elder brother's thoughts were becoming more and more unpredictable.  , after thinking about it, he solemnly said: "Since I am an official of the imperial court, I have to serve the imperial court. The bandits are forcing the siege of Xuzhou. The governor has also issued a summons. I should mobilize all the troops and horses, and it is my duty to gallop to Suzhou and rescue Xuzhou." He  Having said this, he said softly: "We have committed too many crimes in the past, and it is time to serve the imperial court and save the people from the fire and water.  " He thought of the grateful eyes of the people of Shouzhou over the past year. It turned out that what they wanted was so simple, as long as they did not act recklessly and did not endanger their lives. He said with emotion, but when he saw Sun Kewang looking half-smiling, he just  Seeing him slowly shaking his head: "To serve the current situation of the Ming Dynasty, we must be obedient and repay the favor.  However, if you are too obedient, you will not be able to wait for three days. Then we will lead a team of 5,000 horses and leave.  " "Brother" Li Dingguo shouted in surprise. Of the 60,000 troops, only 5,000 were dispatched. Sun Kewang explained: "The bandits are so powerful that they are annihilated one by one. And you and I also know that those bandits and horses have tens of thousands of steps.  It's useless to bring pawns with you. If you have strong soldiers and fast horses, you can get away if things don't go well.  " He sighed with emotion: "After settling down, I realized that no matter what happens in the Ming Dynasty, as long as there are elite soldiers and strong generals in hand, there are soldiers and land.?With people, things can be done.  " Seeing what Li Dingguo was going to say, Sun Kewang's eyes were a little cold, but he still said sincerely: "Second brother, if we want to serve the court, we also need to survive this difficult period.  Not to mention reaching Wang Dou's level, it would still require at least half of what he had accumulated.  This is a time when we need to be patient.  Yichun, you are my life and death brother, my right arm, I need you to support me.  " Hearing Sun Kewang call him a small character, Li Dingguo's heart softened. He opened his mouth, but couldn't speak. The mountains in the distance were undulating, and Bagong Mountain was all red. The forests were dyed, and there were white snow.  , the scenery is picturesque. However, as the winter wind passed by, Li Dingguo felt solemn in his heart. The wind and snow roared through Xuzhou City, and then a trembling voice came from over there: "My Lord personally mentioned it."  Millions of soldiers were behind, and no one committed any offense.  For the first time, he gave instructions to civil and military officials, etc., to assess the situation at all times, present the city and receive seals, and plan for promotion and promotion as early as possible.  If you stubbornly refuse, I promise you, the gentry and the people, will offer you something, which will not only double the reward, but also save lives everywhere.  If the officers and soldiers fight together and the city is defeated, the jade and the stone are not separated, how can I regret it?" "Commander, listen, listen, the jade and the stone are not separated. Although we should hold on to the key points for the imperial court, we must also consider the needs of our brothers.  Net worth and life.  " "Yes, Marshal, the conditions for becoming king are good, if not, then I will be demoted.  " "Yes, surrender."  " Several generals knelt in front of Liu Liangzuo and burst into tears, making the Xuzhou commander look hesitant. The mansion in Linqing was splendid, magnificent, as spacious and gorgeous as a royal palace. At this time, this spectacular armored palace  The sound of strings and bamboos was heard. Suddenly a disdainful voice came out from the din of music: "Are all the princes fooled by the Ministry of War for asking me to go south?" The voice continued: "This is obviously a traitor.  The art of encirclement and rescue is that only fools come to the rescue, and whoever goes will be the fool.  " "Tell me, am I, Liu Zeqing, stupid?" To be continued.
