Chapter 38 Qufu Attacks the fortress

"What? Eighty infantry companies? This is impossible!" Tian Zhiming was going crazy. Liu Jingxiao's main force was on the front line. How could so many troops emerge, and they came out quietly?

"Ship Tian, ​​this situation is indeed true..." Because the estimated strength of Liu Jingxiao is too low, the Zhi army is now on the front line, with only one hundred infantry companies. If you attack with non-advantage forces, the ending will naturally be tormented.

Tian Zhiming also knew this truth well. He calmed down and stopped his crazy thoughts due to shock and anger. He turned around and asked, "Do they have any letters to self-tax? If they can fight to Zaozhuang, I think there is still room for recovery in this situation!"

"Brig Commander Chen and his team didn't even have any news. According to spies, there was no sign of Brig Commander Chen and the others near Zaozhuang. I'm afraid it would be a lot of danger!"

Tian Zhiming still couldn't figure it out: "Even if Chen Zirui fought for more than a thousand men and was eaten all day and night, how did Liu Jingxiao's eighty infantry companies emerge?"

According to Tian Zhiming's information, the 17th Division had at least ninety infantry companies on the front line, and the remaining troops were only twenty infantry companies at most. How could there be eighty companies? But Tian Zhiming went to the front line to check the enemy situation, and Liu Jingxiao's troops could not be less than forty.

Liu Jingxiao's troops staying in Shandong South did have only 40 infantry companies, but because of capturing a large number of arms from the direct line, Liu Jingxiao ordered Meng Dingguo to be responsible for the establishment of twenty artillery companies. Liu Jingxiao had the instruction of "It is better to ask people to wait for equipment than to wait for people", so the Meng Dingguo Artillery Regiment has always been over-organized, and he quickly transferred backbones and added a large number of new recruits to form twenty artillery companies. The training was difficult to complete for a while, so he simply stayed in Shandong South to continue training.

Now these twenty artillery companies have temporarily changed their posts to infantry companies, and they have taken some equipment to go south by train and are ready to go to war with the Zhi army at any time. The other twenty infantry companies are Liu Jingxiao mobilized from each county as soon as possible. In addition to the cadres, they are all new recruits who have only been trained for a week, and the cadres are also very new, because they borrowed a large number of arms from President Feng last time, and there is no shortage of weapons. They only need to be given military uniforms. The only thing that makes Liu Jingxiao a little satisfied is that the company commander is basically the Dingbian Army.

But eighty infantry companies of varying quality scared the governor Tian away. Director Tian was good at planning and lacked the courage to make decisions. Finally, he sent someone to Liu Jingxiao for negotiation: "There were some minor misunderstandings on the border last time, please forgive me..."

In addition, Tian Zhiming invited Wanyan Yuzhuo's righteous brother Wang Bincheng to send a telegram to mediate. Wang Bincheng sent three telegrams in a row to let the two sides quit immediately. He secretly sent another telegram to Liu Jingxiao: "Greetings to Sister Yuzhuo on my behalf... Tian Zhiming is too unrighteous. My brother-in-law's righteous act won my heart this time. I will leave someone to keep the horse!"

A small misunderstanding? It turns out that the troops of two hundred companies on the borders of both sides came to travel around the mountains and rivers, which is very good! Liu Jingxiao also really gave face and sent someone to reply: "Your cavalry accidentally entered our territory some time ago, and now I will return it..."

More than 900 people below Chen Zirui were immediately returned to the Zhijun army, but all the troops, horses, weapons and equipment were detained. Ding Ning was fighting well this time, and Liu Jingxiao's concession of cavalry regiment was expanded to twelve cavalry companies, and these things were missing. Of course, Section Chief Xiong also did some work privately during this period.

"Tell honestly, be frank and lenient, and resist strictness!"

"What's your last name?"

"My surname is Xiong? My surname is Xiong, we are fellow countrymen! Come on!"

"What's the name?"

"Oh? Our names are very similar! OK!"

"Where are people?"

"Really? We are fellow villagers, and I am also from Baoding! Since we are fellow villagers, I ask them to give them special treatment!"

"Are you married?"

"Unmarried? Brothers, they are all miserable people! They are almost thirty and haven't married yet!"

...

"Brother Xiong, you are loyal enough... Cheers!"

"Brother, I'm also in a difficult situation now, but it's hard to talk about it!"

The man known as the brother said to Chief Xiong with his tongue: "Just say anything if you have something to do!"

...

"That's just a little thing? Don't worry, everything is left to me!"

"Have so much money? Thank you Brother Xiong!"

After a few days, the Military Horse Statistics Department developed dozens of people among the prisoners, and deployed more than a dozen intelligence collection work that was easy to complete but generous. On the one hand, Section Chief Xiong wanted to verify the reliability of the intelligence source, and on the other hand, it also lured intelligence personnel to fall into his trap without realizing it, and finally to be unable to extricate themselves.

Qufu Long Gongwen said to Hong Bin with a bitter face: "How many cavalry do you have?"

Hong Bin said seriously: "One regiment, four cavalry Dalian!"

Long Gongwen didn't believe this, and he cursed: "You guy, don't cheat me on this! You are not as good as me when you eat empty space and drink military blood! When is the time now? Don't joke about the future of the army..."

Hong Bin then told the truth honestly: "The four companies lost more than half of the staff, and now the entire team has only more than four hundred staff..."

Long Gongwen was originally planning to settle the score with Hong Bin after returning to Qufu, but after retreating to Qufu, he found that the situation was really bad.

Qufu has a rear troop station of the Second Division of Long Wenmei and some rear troops. Long Gongwen brought back six or seven hundred people, and the security forces in Qufu, totaling only more than three thousand people. Fortunately, the siege of the 17th Division was not tight, and more than one thousand scattered soldiers fled back. Long Gongwen quickly took in it. At this time, Hong Bin's cavalry became Long Gongwen's life-saving straw.

However, it is difficult to defend Qufu with this little force. Long Gongwen and Hong Bin unanimously demand that Qufu be abandoned and returned to Yanzhou. Shen Ying and Long Wenmei of Yanzhou also fully agreed with this. Unfortunately, the governor of Wang suddenly became wise and ordered: "Qufu cannot be defended, Qufu cannot be lost..."

This order was really wise. Long Wenmei and Shen Ying watched it for half an hour, but they couldn't understand the meaning of it. They asked the King of Kings again. The King of Kings still answered the cross mantra and asked repeatedly. Finally, the King of Kings finally solved the trick: "Please come forward..."

Since Confucius founded Confucianism to cheat food and drink, people from Shandong surnamed Kong, Yan and Meng have left Hongyun. Three palaces were established in all dynasties, namely the Saint Mansion, the Yasheng Mansion, and the Restoration Mansion. Not only do they not have to pay imperial grain, but they also give generous rewards from time to time during festivals. Naturally, there are countless good lands. They usually call "The Saint said..." while buying cheap fertile land and yellow flowers.

Qufu Saint Mansion has great potential in Shandong. In Qufu, Sishui and Zou County, there are 12,000 acres of fertile land, so Long Gongwen and Hong Bin invite a bunch of old men to the 17th Division: "The saint said that harmony is the most important... Please stop the war and speak... Besides, once this war begins, it will inevitably affect the Yan Shenggong Mansion, where the ancient sages are everywhere..."

But there are too few people with cultural cultivation in the 17th Division. Xiao Rulang sent the sage-spoken old men away and said, "A bullshit saint... I only know Qufu! If I can't open Qufu, I have to drink the northwest wind if I can't open Qufu..."

Chen Ce said: "What's so amazing about the Saint's Mansion? The Asian Saint's Mansion was ruled by the teacher and posted it!"

Yasheng Mansion is located in Zou County under Liu Jingxiao. It has tens of acres of fertile land and is very powerful. It also has its own armed forces. Although Liu Jingxiao is against local people, she does not tolerate such a powerful local snake in his territory and immediately finds faults.

If you want to find faults, these aristocratic travelers have faults everywhere. Liu Jingxiao has found faults in just one day. The children of the Sub-Saint are really unworthy...

It turns out that there is still a "*" habit left over from ancient times. When the tenant rents land, it is stated in advance that the tenant's daughter must be destroyed by the place when she grows up, otherwise she will not be allowed to get married. The children of the Assassin Mansion really know the essence of the ancestors' words and do one by one. As the saying goes, "When there was a Zhou emperor, why did they talk about Wei and Qi?" He enjoyed this ancient legacy.

Liu Jingxiao suddenly felt a shocking anger and sent troops to withdraw all the guns of the Yafu Mansion in one breath. He captured 60 or 70 people from the Yafu Mansion, and also made a rumor that he would defeat the Yafu Mansion. The whole country was shocked for a while. Later, everyone realized that this Commander Liu was a famous lustful person. Isn’t your Yafu snatching women from Liu Jingxiaoming?

Liu Jingxiao was furious, as if no one could stop him. At first, the Asian Holy Mansion also forced himself to resist. Those women who had been broken had run to the Asian Holy Mansion to reason.

Want to get out? These village women are so powerful that they have to escape from any heroes when they scold them. Moreover, anyone with discerning eyes can see that there is Commander Liu behind them, eating at Yasheng Mansion and sleeping at Yasheng Mansion. They wake up every day and curse. Every time someone in Yasheng Mansion is about to take action, the police rushed in and uphold justice.

In this case, whether it is the saint or the saint, everyone has to bow their heads. The saint Mansion voluntarily sold more than 2,000 acres of land to support Liu Jingxiao's career, and promised to have a half-meal amount of the imperial grain every year. On the other hand, in order to follow the teachings of the saint that year, the tenant rent of the saint's mansion was reduced by 30%. Liu Jingxiao couldn't help but praise: "See? This is the descendant of the saint! This is the noble character!"

As for *, Yasheng Mansion insisted on denying that such a thing had happened, and he would never dare to do it anymore. Who dared to steal women from Commander Liu! However, more and more women were asking for compensation from the door. Yasheng Mansion had to sell more than 200 acres of land as compensation. Of course, they still denied the existence of this problem.

This time the provincial army went south, and someone in the Yasheng Mansion was about to collude with Wang Ziqi, but the troops sent by Liu Jingxiao to defend the Yasheng Mansion had arrived. The Yasheng Mansion immediately carried forward the noble character that was different from ordinary people, and took the initiative to sell 500 acres of land to the tenant farmers at a low price, and then raised a military expense and sent it over.

Since there was such a precedent, Meng Dingguo also shouted: "Blasting the Saint's Mansion? This is a good idea!"

Under Qufu City, Hu Bo looked at Chen Ninghe with suspicion and asked, "Are we connected?"

Chen Ninghe said with confidence: "Captain! Don't worry, our Second Company is the army you lead, the real old company of Dingbian Army!"

Hu Bo always lacks confidence in his words: "But you suffered so much casualties last time..."

Chen Ninghe's second company was basically exhausted in the previous battles. There were only 18 people left in the entire company with combat effectiveness, including Chen Ninghe. However, Liu Jingxiaoxin has a system of a supplementary regiment. Chen Ninghe's company has been temporarily adjusted and replenished more than 60 people. There are still more than 80 people in the entire company. Chen Ninghe said at this time: "The style of our second company is still there... As long as we are old backbones, the tradition of our second company will not be like that..."

Hu Bo then felt relieved and said, "This time, your second company will be the main attacker..."

Chen Ninghe immediately lurked at Qufu City with his company, preparing to rush up to the city after the shelling of Mengdingguo, but when he arrived at the attack position, he looked at the top of the city in a daze.

Long Gongwen, the head of Qufu City, raised his finger and shouted: "Gao! It's really high!"

Hong Bin also said proudly: "My cavalry, as a cavalry, is a pioneering example of war that has never been seen in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad..."

Long Gongwen nodded straight after hearing this, "There is a Saint's Mansion. Don't look at them having so many cannons, they dare not fire a shot... When they step on the ladder, you can sprint... This is really high..."

While praising each other, the sound of cannons suddenly fell down, and countless shells fell down, causing huge casualties on the city walls.

Meng Dingguo shouted under the city: "Brothers! Do it well... I used cannons to flatten Qufu!"

Meng Dingguo spent all his capital. His artillery regiment had forty-eight cannons, and forty-four were used here.

The horse team on the city was mixed with it, and there was nowhere to escape among the flying shrapnel. The sarcasm of war horses sounded from time to time. A horse jumped down frantically with his people and horses, and fell directly to the ground and fell to the ground and fell to the flesh and blood.

The sound of the cannons seemed to have stopped. Countless shells hit the defenders with beautiful arcs. Long Gongwen ran around in place, shouting: "Hong Bin... find a way..."

The heavy equipment and supplies of the Second Division were thrown away in the breakout. At this time, Hong Bin also shouted: "How can the cavalry go up to the city wall... Ask them down..."

It was just too late, it was easy to get up, but it was difficult to get down. Under the suppression of artillery fire, Hong Bin's chest-plated cavalry regiment was basically done, but before the artillery fire was completely calmed down, Chen Ninghe shouted: "Follow me..."

Chen Ninghe, who was the first to jump up from the ladder, happened to encounter the dizzy defender in chaos. The smell of fire made people breathless. He shouted: "Kill!"

With the flash of bayonets, the second company rushed into the provincial army and defeated the provincial army. On the other hand, Hong Bin gathered the remaining breastplate cavalry and shouted: "Go quickly! Go quickly! Let's break out first!"

A cavalry asked, "What should I do if the acting division commander Long?"

Hong Bin shouted: "We will wait for them in Yanzhou..."
