What is Jinan Mansion?

It is the seat of governance in Shandong!

Zhang Zhun's cavalry actually got to Jinan Mansion?

Does he really think that he is the number one person in Shandong?

"Order Zhu Han to pursue immediately!" Zhu Dadian said with a pale face.

Zhu Han was his nephew and the garrison of the cavalry battalion under his command. The cavalry battalion is the most elite fighting force under Zhu Dadian, and it took him a lot of effort to set it up. Usually there is nothing important, and it is generally reluctant to use it easily. But now, it's time to use the cavalry battalion.

Zhang Zhun's people actually dared to go to Jinan Mansion to spread wild. In the eyes of outsiders, Zhang Zhun was deliberately losing his face, and with a snap, the slap was shocking. If he didn't fight back hard and slap back, how could he swallow this breath? What will others think of him? Is he the master of Shandong, or is Zhang Zhun the master of Shandong?

"Understood!" The subordinate agreed.

Zhu Dadian sat down stupidly.

The other officials, you look at me, I look at you, except for Zheng Man, they all feel a little embarrassed, a little sad, and a little helpless. In the past, they had always laughed at the incompetence of the government in Shaanxi, Shanxi, and Henan, and made the rebellious army confused, but now they found out that they were the worst. Others haven't been expelled yet! Now, not only has one of their vassal kings banished, but there are also traces of thieves around the governor's office. When the news spread, other officials in other provinces don't know what kind of schadenfreude they want to be behind it!

King De said with some worry: "Yanzhi, could it be Zhang Zhun's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain?" ”

Zhu Dadian suddenly frowned.

King De's worries are not unreasonable. Zhang Zhun did not have the strength to attack Jinan City head-on for the time being. Perhaps, he really wanted to divert the tiger from the mountain, or to attack the east and west, so that the Ming army in the city would go out and be beaten passively. Or transfer all the defenders in the city out, and then attack Jinan City. If Zhang Zhun's troops had an ambush outside the city, wouldn't it be very dangerous for the cavalry battalion to rush into it? If it were someone else, Zhu Dadian might not think that was possible. However, Zhang Zhun is different!

Zhang Zhun has already bombarded Nanjing City, and blatantly expelled King Heng, this is something that others dare not think of, God knows if he will have a bigger move next? In case Jinan Mansion is conquered by Zhang Zhun, it will be really a big joke in the world. Even if Jinan City is safe, if his cavalry battalion is eaten by Zhang Zhun, it will be a very troublesome matter.

Zhu Dadian thought about it and felt that he still needed to be cautious and not take risks easily, so he called a subordinate and ordered: "Inform Zhu Han to send four hundred cavalry to sweep the surrounding area of Jinan Mansion." The rest of the soldiers and horses stayed in the city and waited to see what happened. ”

The subordinates hurriedly agreed.

Zhu Dadian was a little relieved. He has a total of 1,400 cavalry, and after removing the four repetitions, there are still 1,000 cavalry, so there should be no big problem. At the same time, Zhu Dadian made up his mind that as long as he survived this risk, he would definitely expand his cavalry in large quantities. Taking advantage of the good relationship between himself and Wang Kun, the eunuch of Xuanfu Town, he got more war horses from him as soon as possible.

"Bang!"

"Bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

Not long after his subordinates left, gunshots rang out from the south gate of Jinan Mansion.

The gunshots were a little far away, and I couldn't hear them very clearly, and it felt like there were children playing with firecrackers. However, after the gunfire just now, they were all very vigilant, and naturally they heard these gunshots clearly. Sure enough, soon, the subordinates reported that Jinan Wei in the south of the city was also attacked, and more than a dozen people were also killed. The attacking Zhang Zhun cavalry was very fierce, and wherever they passed, there was no room for life at all.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Later, someone came to report that the shadows of the thief cavalry were also found in other gates of Jinan City. They shot at the defenders at the head of the city, or fired their guns indiscriminately into the sky. According to incomplete statistics, thirty or forty of the defenders died under the guns of the cavalry of the thief army. Those thieves and cavalry, after shooting their guns, followed away and did not know where they went.

In this way, Zhang Zhun's stragglers appeared in many directions of Jinan City. For a while, no one could determine whether there were other large forces behind Zhang Zhun's stragglers. Similarly, no one dares to conclude whether Zhang Zhun really just attacked Jinan City. Some people are worried that Zhang Zhun will not deliberately blockade the city of Jinan, and then send people to loot other parts of Shandong. From Jinan City, it is the rich Dongping, Linqing and other places. If Zhang Zhun looted here, then the local losses would be heavy.

According to the reports of his subordinates, chaos has begun to appear in Jinan City, and all kinds of gossip are spreading rapidly, and rumors about the Wenxiang Sect are endless. Because there have been many turmoil in Shandong, and every time the turmoil of the Smelling Fragrance Sect is huge, ordinary people always like to hear that the wind is rain. It is customary to believe that as long as there is turmoil, it is the Smelling Fragrance Sect that initiates it. This time is no different.

It is not terrible to be attacked by Zhang Zhun, but it is terrible to combine Zhang Zhun's attack with the turmoil of the Smelling Fragrance Sect to further expand his influence. The human heart, you say it is important, but it may not be very important. In the face of absolute force, the human heart does not work at all. But it doesn't matter if you say that when the two sides are evenly matched, it can really tilt the scales.

In the edict of the imperial court, Zhang Zhun is an unforgivable thief. In the eyes of the masses who don't know the truth, Zhang Zhun is a thief. Even if Zhang Zhun occupies Jinan City now, most of the people in the city will not accept him. However, as rumors continue to spread, people's hearts will change. If Zhang Zhun's fame gradually becomes deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, then slowly, the people will accept him. In the future, if Zhang Zhun takes Jinan City, most of the people will also support him. That's what I'm most afraid of.

For now, it is imperative to eliminate these negative effects as soon as possible. To do this, of course, it is to drive Zhang Zhun away from afar. As long as Zhang Zhun does not appear around Jinan City, even if there are rumors and rumors, the credibility is still not high. As long as the people don't believe in Zhang Zhun's ability, Jinan City will naturally be safe and sound.

In the end, it was King De who was understanding and said euphemistically: "Yanzhi, you deal with the affairs of Jinan Mansion first, King Heng is now staying here for a while." ”

Zhu Dadian had no choice but to confess and leave the Dewang Mansion with gritted teeth. }*

"Your grandma's egg!"

"Zhang Zhun, I'm not done with you!"

Along the way, Zhu Dadian cursed Zhang Zhun fiercely.

At the celebration banquet in Fengyang Mansion, Zhu Dadian did not take Zhang Zhun in his eyes at all. Even if Zhang Zhun controls Laizhou Mansion, he is just a thief who does not enter the stream. thought that as long as he went out in person, he would definitely be able to clean up Zhang Zhun easily. Unexpectedly, as soon as he led the army back to Jinan Mansion, he was slapped on the head by Zhang Zhun and felt a little spinning. Zhang Zhun, the king egg, actually dared to send troops to attack Jinan City, and it was obvious that he was directly confronted by him. Damn, this Zhang Zhun really doesn't give any face!

"Zhu Han!"

"Order all the cavalry to go out of the city!"

"Jang Zhun's stragglers! Find out! ”

"If you catch Zhang Zhun's stragglers, they will be beaten to death!"

"No, take it alive! Alive! Alive! I'm going to hang them on the city!" ”

Zhu Dadian's cheeks twisted and said viciously.

In a fit of rage, he completely forgot what the king had reminded him of.

Zhu Han hurriedly replied, and ordered all the cavalry battalions to go out of the city and find Zhang Zhun's stragglers.

"Da Da Da!"

"Da Da Da!"

"Da Da Da!"

The dense sound of horses' hooves sounded in Jinan City.

When the gunshots rang out, many people in Jinan City looked at the direction of the city gate in amazement, and looked at the people around them with puzzled eyes, guessing what was going on. Later, when I saw the governor's cavalry camp dispatched, I knew that it was a major event outside the city. The city of Jinan rarely encounters such an emergency. Only when the Xiangxiang Sect was making trouble in the past, it was necessary to continuously reassemble troops from Jinan City to fight out of the city.

For a while, all kinds of rumors spread one after another, gossips, and the hustle and bustle. Some people say that the Smelling Fragrance Sect has rebelled again. Some people say that it was not the Wenxiang Sect that rebelled, it was Zhang Zhun who killed him. Some people say that it was Zhang Zhun of the Wenxiang Sect who rebelled. In front of Zhang Zhun, with the addition of the three universes of the Wenxiang Sect, the rumors spread faster.

Of course, Zhu Dadian ordered a severe bullet press. As a result, a large number of soldiers, as well as government servants, fast catchers, and the like, appeared on the streets of Jinan City, and it was strictly forbidden for people to talk to each other and whisper. If three people stand together, it is immediately considered an illegal assembly. If several people walk together, it is considered an illegal walk. Even if a family is doing homework in the yard, it is illegal and forbidden. As long as it violates the law, all of them will be arrested.

For a time, the silence in the entire Jinan City was terrifying. No pedestrians are seen on the streets anymore. Most of the shops have closed their doors to avoid being robbed. All the prisons were full of people who had been arrested. Everywhere there are people who are constantly crying out for grievances. However, their crying out for grievances will not lead to anything. The only way they could get out safely was to pay the money. Taking advantage of such an opportunity to kill and collect money is already the only way for officials at all levels.

"I don't believe it, Zhang Zhun really came to Jinan City!"

"I'm going to go out of town and see for myself!"

Zhu Dadian gritted his teeth and said.

Soon, Zhu Dadian came out of the north gate of Jinan City with hundreds of personal soldiers.

Zhang Zhun's provocation completely angered the governor of Shandong. To say that among all the governors of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Dadian belongs to the more courageous category. He was indeed not afraid of fighting, nor was he afraid of Zhang Zhun and Wenxiang or anything. In the fifth year of Chongzhen's rebellion, Kong Youde rebelled, and it was he who took vigorous and resolute actions to clean up the tail left by Sun Yuanhua. If he didn't have a little courage, when he rushed to the aid of Fengyang Mansion, his movements would not have been so fast.

When Zhu Dadian went out of the city, he didn't notice that in a tea stall near the city gate cave, there was a handsome young man who was not like a word, shaking a gold-painted paper fan, silently watching everything that happened near the city gate. The owner of the tea stall is also a woman. Other people's tea stalls have closed, but only this one is open. If Zhang Zhun was here, he would definitely recognize this handsome young man, who was the "witch" Dong Shuyan of the Wenxiang Sect.

"Where are the people?"

"Did you find the target?"

"What did you all see at the time?

After Zhu Dadian took his soldiers out of the city, the outside of the city was already empty, and all the people either fled or went into hiding. The few people who were finally searched out didn't know anything. Zhu Dadian was naturally very disappointed.

When he came to the place where Qingzhou Wei was attacked, Zhu Dadian was angry and found that there were no other clues on the ground except for the corpses of more than a dozen guards. That's right, there are indeed a lot of messy horseshoe prints on the ground nearby. However, what valuable clues can be drawn from relying on these horseshoe prints?

Finally, his cavalry camp finally found a few civilians nearby who witnessed the shooting. According to the accounts of these witnesses, the guards were "doing business" when a group of gray-clad cavalrymen suddenly came out of nowhere and shot them indiscriminately, killing them all. Then, the cavalrymen in gray uniforms quickly turned their horses and left. Before and after time, that is, the kung fu of a blink of an eye.

"How many are there?" Zhu Dadian frowned and asked.

"About fifty." The witness said uncertainly.

"How many people are there?" Zhu Dadian was in a bad mood and was a little angry.

"Maybe a hundred—" The witnesses were intimidated by the governor and hurriedly changed their words.

Zhu Dadian had no choice but to stop asking.

Looking at the corpses of the guards on the ground, Zhu Dadian had no sympathy or pity at all. These guards are all wine bags and rice bags, and they deserve their lives. If all the guards in the world were wiped out, the court would not know how happy it would be. If the saved money and food are used to feed the soldiers, at least 300,000 soldiers can be added.

However, having said that, Zhang Zhun's troops are also guards, and they are still the broken soldiers of Aoshan Wei. The conditions of Aoshanwei are much worse than those of Qingzhouwei! Why are the troops brought out by Zhang Zhun so ferocious and unstoppable? If the imperial court can find the trick, maybe millions of guards can become fierce, then what is the matter with the godson and the rebellious people?

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

There was a constant sound of intermittent gunfire all around. Some are near, some are far. Sometimes it's very dense, like popping beans. Sometimes it's very deserted, and a shot is fired from time to time, as if a constipated person is finally squeezing out a small lump. No matter how you listen to it, these gunshots are a little weird. But where is the weirdness, Zhu Dadian can't say.
