Bury the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 61 Left?right?
For Liu Huaiwen and Meng Lianggu, all the big and small leaders, Zhu Jinsong, the head of the family, is good everywhere. As long as the clothes he wears on weekdays are clean and the food is full, no matter whether he treats the people or his hands These people below are also extremely generous, and they speak politely. They are more like Mingjun Shengzhu than the Mingjun Shengzhu sung in the drama.

But just one thing, the old man who is in charge of the family doesn't seem to know how to write the word distressed. He never considers other methods to solve problems that can be solved with grenades and landmines.

Zhu Erdan once said a word before that he learned the habit of throwing grenades from his brother, which is absolutely true.

Now when he heard that Zhu Jinsong's words were intended to cause trouble for Agui and Mingxing, Liu Huaiwen, Meng Lianggu's chief housekeeper, felt his heart ache.

Liu Huaiwen sipped at the pot of dry tobacco, and said in a muffled voice: "Master, don't blame me for talking too much. Meng Lianggu's den of rebels really doesn't have much food left over. If you want to beat the Tartars, I don't object, but these grenades and landmines, you Whatever you do, you have to save a little."

After being told by Liu Huaiwen, Zhu Jinsong, who felt he was wronged, especially wanted to pull Zhu Erdan to him, and then beat him up severely.

If it weren't for Zhu Erdan, Liu Huaiwen wouldn't have targeted him as a master.

Snorting angrily, Zhu Jinsong ignored Liu Huaiwen, and instead turned his attention to Ke Zhiming: "What's going on with the Tartars now?"

Ke Zhiming cupped his hands and said, "My son, Agui, the imperial envoy, transferred Fu Heng to Jinan in the name of an imperial envoy. It seems that he intends to temporarily let Chen Tailai and the Bagua Sect go, and go all out to suppress our Meng Lianggu."

"According to the news from the Caozhou Mansion, Chen Tailai and the Bagua Sect have completely mixed up. The two are planning to attack Fukang'an who is entrenched in Heze together, and completely take down the entire Caozhou."

"In addition, there have been more and more disagreements between the Eight Diagrams Sect and the third son recently. It's just that the third son has not been quoted, and no letter has been sent back. The young one doesn't know what the third son has plans."

Zhu Jinsong nodded, and then turned his attention to the big and small leaders sitting here: "Let's talk about it, the Tartars may attack our Menglianggu with all their strength, how should we deal with it?"

Among the big and small leaders here, except for the members of the Tiandihui headed by Ke Zhiming, Li Bantou who surrendered later, and Young Master Lin who joined the gang later, they basically cooperated with Zhu Jinsong to kill Liu Juren's old brother naturally doesn't have too many scruples when he speaks.

Liu Ergou said: "Didn't the head of the family say that if you hit one punch, you won't get a hundred punches. Instead of waiting for the Tartars to attack us, let's have some fun for the Tartars first."

"Anyway, Erdan has captured Laizhou now. As long as we march from the south, and let Erdan and Geng Rui separate a group of troops, we can directly encircle Qingzhou from the east and south. After leaving Qingzhou, Jinan is basically at your fingertips, and when the time comes to win Wuding, the whole Shandong will be in the hands of our Meng Lianggu."

Speaking of this, Liu Ergou turned his attention to Ke Zhiming again: "Brother Ke, is there any way in your world to kill Agui and Mingxing directly? As the saying goes, snakes can't do without a head, if you can kill Agui directly And Mingxing, all the Tartars in Shandong will be in chaos!"

Hearing what Liu Ergou said, all the big and small leaders on Meng Lianggu joined in, but Young Master Lin, who joined the group later, tentatively said after obtaining Zhu Jinsong's consent: "So Is it too risky to do it?"

"It is true that the Eight Banners of the Tartars are unusable, and it is also true that the Green Camp of the Tartars is unusable, but what we have seen is, after all, only the Eight Banners and the Green Camp in Shandong, like the Green Camp that fought in Jinchuan and Myanmar. Is it easy to deal with?"

"Our Meng Lianggu's foundation is still too weak now. It's okay to cause some troubles for the Tartars, but if we really want people to assassinate Ah Gui and Mingxing, and then take Jinan, I'm afraid the Emperor Tartars will go crazy, right?"

Liu Ergou snorted and said, "If the emperor of Tartars wants to go crazy, let him go crazy. As long as we can take over half of Shandong, it's not just Baguajiao and Chen Tailai who will respond to our uprising, I'm afraid the whole Tartar Qing There will be chaos, and when it really comes, will the Tartar Emperor still care about us?"

Young Master Lin frowned and said, "If the Emperor of the Tartars goes completely crazy and mobilizes the Zhili Green Battalion and even the Eight Banners and Green Battalion outside the pass to enter the Guanping Fist, can we hold grenades, landmines, red cannons, and flintlocks? ?”

Liu Huaiwen smacked the pot of dry tobacco, and said slowly: "Support? Can't hold it! If the Zhili Green Camp and the Eight Banners Green Camp outside the pass are the same as the Shandong Green Camp, then it's nothing. I'm afraid I'm afraid of the Zhili Green Camp and the Eight Banners outside the pass The green battalion can withstand casualties, as Young Master Lin said."

"It's not once or twice that you have fought with the big master. You should know that the reason why we have won these few times is basically because the green battalion was defeated first. If there is any Eight Banners army or green battalion that can withstand the casualties, this is the victory. How about you figure it out for yourself?"

Liu Ergou wanted to refute, but after lowering his head to ponder for a while, he had to agree with Liu Huaiwen's statement.

That's right, on the surface, Meng Lianggu has always been victorious. It seems that Meng Lianggu's army is naturally able to suppress the Tartar army, but as long as you look deeper, it is not difficult to find that these victories are basically Because the Tazi officers and soldiers had never seen the power of grenades and landmines, if any army could withstand the casualties and Meng Lianggu threw out most of the grenades and launched a counterattack, the final outcome would be hard to say.

Although Liu Ergou has confidence in his army, Liu Ergou will not underestimate the Tartar officers and soldiers too much, because the leader once said in his lectures that we must despise the Tartars strategically and be wary of Tatars in tactics. The world attaches great importance to Tartars.

Thinking of this, Liu Ergou couldn't help turning his eyes to Zhu Jinsong: "The master?"

Zhu Jinsong took two sips of the dry tobacco he rolled himself, half-closed his eyes and said: "You discuss, I just want to hear your opinions, whether it is in favor of active offense or passive defense, what do you guys think? Even if you say it, the more you argue, the clearer the truth."

As soon as Zhu Jinsong's words fell, the people in the room, big and small, couldn't help but stare at each other, and then started arguing.

Some people agreed with Liu Ergou's proposal, thinking that as long as they take down the whole of Shandong, they can give an example to the forces in the world who want to oppose the Qing Dynasty. Then the whole Tartar Qing will be in chaos, and it will be impossible for the Tartar Qing to attack with all their strength. Meng Lianggu.

Some people also agreed with Young Master Lin’s proposal, thinking that it’s okay to cause some trouble for the Tartars now, but it must be controlled to a certain extent, at least not to drive the old dog Qian Deaf to go crazy, because once the old dog Qian Deaf goes crazy, can Meng Lianggu stand up? It's really not easy to say.

After arguing for a long time, all the leaders, big and small, were also exhausted from the quarrel, so Zhu Jinsong said with a smile: "It's all over? After a long time of quarreling, what is the result of the quarrel?"

Obviously, no matter whether they are in favor of active offense or passive defense, neither of the two groups can persuade each other. Judging from the scene, those in favor of passive defense have the upper hand.

This made Zhu Jinsong feel very gratified.

To put it bluntly, whether it was the response to Mingxing's encirclement or the ambush of the imperial envoy, Agui, or Zhu Erdan's subsequent victory over Linqu and Laizhou, the old brothers who followed Zhu Jinsong were a little bit agitated by their victories. With the wind.

This situation is very wrong.

Although Zhu Jinsong has never taken the Tartar officers and soldiers seriously, it is based on the strategic level. If it is put on the tactical level, then it can be said bluntly that Zhu Jinsong's attitude towards the Tartar officers and soldiers every time All with extreme caution.

Because things are just like what Young Master Lin said, Meng Lianggu has only dealt with the Qingzhou Eight Banners and the Shandong Green Camp from the beginning to the end, and has not yet fought against the Zhili Green Camp or even the Guanwai Eight Banners Green Camp.

In fact, more than half of the reason why Shandong Green Camp gave people the impression of being a waste was because Zhu Jinsong used a large number of grenades and landmines to blow them out of their heads when he made a surprise attack or ambushed before.

If the Tartar officers and soldiers were given the opportunity to drive horses and fight head-to-head, the outcome would be hard to say.

Therefore, the officers and soldiers of the Tartars must not be regarded as the Temporary Seventh Division based on the impression of waste from the Shandong Green Camp.

The correct approach is to treat them as the reorganized 74th Division.

The reason why Zhu Jinsong let these people let go of the quarrel is to let them understand their quarrel, let them realize their own shortcomings, and stop thinking that I am invincible every day.

To put it bluntly, it is still a question of left, right, and right, and everyone who understands it understands it.

Of course, it is a good thing to be able to recognize your own shortcomings, but it is not a good thing to underestimate yourself too much. Zhu Jinsong does not want Meng Lianggu's leaders to become timid.

After taking two puffs of dry cigarettes, Zhu Jinsong half-closed his eyes and said, "Since you're done arguing, let's just say a few words."

"Fighting, there are advantages to fighting, and there are advantages to not fighting, so how to grasp a certain speed is our biggest problem now."

"Like what Ergou said, if we occupy the entire Shandong, we can make the entire Qing Dynasty follow suit. This may or may not be true, because before we occupy the entire Shandong, no one can guarantee that this will happen." One point, at the same time, who can guarantee that the Qing Dynasty will not concentrate its forces against us because of this?"

"Kill the chickens to warn the monkeys. After all, we are the first to stand out. As long as we are suppressed, other places will follow suit if they want to follow suit."

"As for what Eldest Young Master Lin said, we should develop quietly and deal a fatal blow to the Tartars when we are strong enough. This is also true, but it's not entirely true."

"It's still the same sentence. We were the first to come out first. Although the disturbance and the impact on the Tartars are not as great as Chen Tailai, will the Tartars let us go? Even if the Tartars choose to deal with Chen Tailai first, then after dealing with Chen Tailai , is it our turn?"

"So, when we should take the initiative to attack, we still have to take the initiative. We have to lead the tartars by the nose, so that the tartars can't concentrate on dealing with Chen Tailai, and the tartars can't figure out our way."

Speaking of this, Zhu Jinsong simply looked at Liu Ergou and said, "Ergou, take your battalion to Linqu and attack Yidu. The troops from Erdan continue to attack Dengzhou."

After Liu Ergou surrendered, Zhu Jinsong said to Ke Zhiming again: "Zhiming, you send someone to contact Chen Tailai. After all, this person is the original governor of Hedao, and he still has some original officers and soldiers under his command. We need flintlock guns, as long as he dares to buy them, we dare to sell them."

Ke Zhiming was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "My lord, the flintlock..."

Zhu Jinsong waved his hand and said with a smile: "The flintlock guns that we want to sell to Chen Tailai are not the same as the flintlock guns we use ourselves. Don't worry, we're not that stupid."
