These people are all Liu Pei's plans to get rid of. They are extremely famous in the local area, not to mention that they occupy a large amount of land, and they are also the main force of xenophobia. They were very dissatisfied with Liu Pei's large number of victims. So Liu Pei took this opportunity to prepare to eliminate a group of people in the name of the rebels.

As for Zhaoyuan, it is purely a crime. Because the land owned by a large local family is located right above the vein of Zhaoyuan!

You must know that Zhaoyuan Gold Mine is a rare bonanza. Liu Pei has been coveting there for a long time, but he has never been able to find a chance. This time, Liu Pei was going to let the people from the Intelligence Bureau disguise themselves as the rout of the Dongjiang Army to carry out the extermination operation.

After Liu Jiang collected the list, he said, "Dashuai, when will you do it there?" ”

Liu Pei said: "Don't worry, the new governor of Shandong, Xu Congzhi, looks like a capable person, but in fact he can't." I'm afraid that he won't be able to suppress Kong Youde and Li Jiucheng. ”

Liu Jiang said: "Since he can't do it, then the marshal directly raised troops to destroy Kong Youde, wouldn't that be a great achievement?" ”

Liu Pei sighed and said, "I want to too!" But there is too little power we can put on the surface! Once we get our hands on it, we will be exposed to the eyes of the imperial court. ”

Liu Jiang frowned and said, "When will it be?" ”

Liu Pei recalled and said: "Wait until April." When the time comes, it will be interesting to see if Kong Youde will attack Laizhou. ”

Liu Jiang said he understood and left. If you want to exterminate these families quietly, Liu Jiang still has too many things to arrange.

Sure enough, in April, when Xu Congzhi, the governor of Shandong, was killed by Kong Youde's artillery when he was supervising the battle in Laizhou! At this time, Liu Pei knew that a capable man in the history of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Dadian, was coming.

Zhu Dadian is a native of Jinhuafu, Zhejiang, born in the ninth year of Wanli. Wanli forty-four years high school Bingchen science and technology scholar. He has experienced the four emperors of Wanli, Taichang, Tianqi and Chongzhen, and is one of the few veterans of the four dynasties in the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Dadian's career was also smooth sailing in the early days, starting from a Qipin county order in Shandong, and gradually promoted to the military department, the right attendant of the military department, the right governor of Shandong, and the highest governor of Caoyun and Fengyang

The governor is the feudal official who guards one side.

Zhu Dadian has two major characteristics in his life, the first is "greed"! Historical records record that Zhu Dadian was "extremely greedy", extremely greedy for money and profit, and unscrupulous in order to grab gold, silver and goods. During his tenure in various places, he "took money and bribes, and the subordinates of the four governments had all their pockets", and used various means to seek huge wealth for himself, and the name of greed spread all over the world, and he was a super huge greed hated by everyone.

During Zhu Dadian's tenure as governor of Caoyun, his greed for ink reached its peak. Zhang Dai, a famous scholar in the Ming Dynasty, served as his staff at that time, "personally saw Zhu Dadian's poverty", compared Zhu Dadian's greedy image to "true as a milk tiger and goshawk", and said that Zhu Dadian had reached the level of "people who imitate their wealth and rival the country".

However, what is surprising is that this big corrupt official has another characteristic: he is extremely talented, all-round in civil and military affairs, and is not only good at governing officials, but also good at using soldiers. For example, in the fifth year of Chongzhen, the warlords of the Ming Dynasty, Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming and others launched the "Dengzhou Rebellion", rebelled against the Ming Dynasty and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, led tens of thousands of rebels to sweep through Shandong, and conquered more than a dozen prefectures and counties one after another.

In the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, the Qing army entered the customs, Chongzhen committed suicide, and the Southern Ming Dynasty was established. When the country was in danger, a large number of high-ranking and powerful civil and military generals in the Ming Dynasty, such as Hong Chengchou, Wu Sangui and others, surrendered to the Qing army. The corrupt official Zhu Dadian withstood the test, swore that he would not die as a slave of the country, and was determined to fight to the death with the Qing army.

Zhu Dadian returned to his hometown Jinhua, scattered all his family wealth, donated all his savings for many years, purchased gunpowder and weapons, recruited strong men to organize the township brave regiment training, practiced day and night, and guarded Sangzi.

In 1646, a large army of the Qing army marched south to Zhejiang and besieged Jinhua City. Zhu Dadian was not intimidated by the arrogance of the Qing army, and repeatedly refused the lure and surrender of the high-ranking official of the Qing army, and launched a life-and-death offensive and defensive battle with the Qing army. When the city was broken, the women of Zhu Dadian's family first threw themselves into the well and martyred, and they gathered in the powder magazine with their children and grandchildren and guests with the fire rope to detonate the martyrdom!

Although Zhu Dadian was a corrupt official during his lifetime, his act of sacrificing his life to protect his family and defend the country made countless Ming Dynasty people moved to tears when the country's survival was in danger at the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, and tens of thousands of people praised him, saying that he "guarded the infant city, broke the family and was loyal, and then died", "The martyrdom of the death in eastern Zhejiang is not as great as the canon"

！

So Liu Pei has been waiting for Zhu Dadian's appointment document to be issued. When he received Zhu Dadian's appointment as governor of Shandong, Liu Pei knew that he should leave.

Before leaving, Liu Pei also specially called Liu Jiang to learn about the situation in Laizhou City. Before and after the siege of Laizhou, Liu Jiang always maintained close contact with the city. You know, it is impossible for a siege to really kill a city at any time. The brigade will definitely not be able to get through, but it is easy for a small group of people or individual people to sneak out.

In normal history. Kong Youde has been attacking Laizhou for a long time. And Wang Changde, as the prefect, had Liu Pei's reminder, and he stockpiled materials in various names early. In the name of stabilizing the place, he also trained young and strong.

It can be said that Kong Youde is completely attacking a major city that has been prepared for a long time and is well-equipped. Moreover, Qi Qitao continued to give advice to Wang Changde in the city, which made it even more difficult for Kong Youde to break through Laizhou.

From Kong Youde's siege in April to more than two months in June, not only did he not capture the city, but the soldiers in Laizhou City had actual combat experience, and the more they fought, the more courageous they became. It also broke Kong Youde's dream!

After Liu Pei finished reading the battle report in Laizhou, he was completely relieved, and decided to take some people north. At this time, Zhu Dadian had just taken office, and there was no one available in his hands. If you take refuge in the past at this time, maybe you can still mix up the position of the standard camp! And if you grasp the opportunity in this battle, you will get some combat merits. Then the hope of promotion is even greater!

After arranging the affairs of the family, Liu Pei said goodbye to Wang Ya, and rushed to Dezhou with 5,000 infantry and 200 cavalry.

When Liu Pei arrived in Texas, there was no special change in Texas City. There was no sign of an army. But according to the report of the Intelligence Bureau, Zhu Dadian has already begun to recruit Minzhuang.

When Liu Pei heard the letter, he knew that he was just right when he came. At this time, it was the time when the imperial court soldiers and horses had not arrived, and Zhu Dadian was short of manpower. At this time, coming here is to send charcoal in the snow, Zhu Dadian must be impressed!

Liu Pei inquired a little outside Dezhou City, and knew that Zhu Dadian was in the military camp outside the city, and was training with the soldiers he had just recruited. Liu Pei inquired about the location clearly, and immediately turned around and went to the barracks.
