Advance loyalty, achieve merit, and achieve merit.

These three names show Lu Si's attitude, and the "Ben Hou" also sublimates the ideological awareness of the fortune teller Wang Er, and finally let go of his obsession in his heart and began to face his own situation.

The next day, Wang Er was appointed as the "Salt Envoy" and led more than 700 troops to Haizi to rectify the salt affairs, crack down on illegal tyrants, and rescued the people who were detained by the salt vendors.

In order to make Wang Er, the "Salt Envoy", look more like a serious official position, Lu Si also wrote a letter to Liu Bao, Huaiyangtong Association in Yangzhou, asking Liu Bao to choose a place in Haizi to establish the Salt Envoy, and Liu Bao was directly responsible. It is recommended that this Salt Envoy could report to the Central Committee of Dashun as the fourth rank.

On that day, Su Jinzhong was promoted to the commander of Muyang, Wang Jingong was promoted to the commander of Shanyang, and Li Degong was promoted to the commander of Taoyuan, and each led 1,500 troops to the commander of the army.

Lu Si did not exclude Guo Laosi and Qiu San, two leaders who did not participate in the internal strife in the city. They promoted Guo Laosi to the commander of Ganyu and ordered him to lead the troops to recover Ganyu County.

Qiu San was promoted to the commander of the Donghai Sea, and led more than a thousand troops from his troops to Haizhou with Chen Tingyang's troops to build the Haizhou Navy Camp.

At this point, more than 17,000 Northern Army soldiers were basically reorganized, and the upper and lower levels were in a stable mood.

Lu Si listened to Zheng Biao's opinions and mobilized the "local thieves" in Andong, Muyang, Ganyu, Donghai and other places and the people to build a road directly from Haizhou to Yancheng. In this way, the Huai Army would have two roads directly to the north, rather than only walking the canal road.

In addition to a few remaining soldiers of the Ming army in Haizhou, Liu Zeqing's troops were all Liu Zeqing's troops. However, Liu Zeqing is desperately trying his best to take care of Shanghai Prefecture at all, so the Huai Army, which has been supported by most of the local bandits in Haizhou, can enter Haizhou in a swagger.

When Lu Si personally led the main force of the Huai Army to the north, Liu Zeqing was unable to make up for the situation even though he knew that Haizhou had fallen into the hands of the Huai Army.

Yu Huaishu's body was secretly buried outside the city by Sun Wujin earlier. Lu Si did not go to pay tribute, so he deceived himself by crying and offering a ghost trick to deceive himself. He only asked someone to send five hundred taels of silver to the Yu family to make the deposit.

More than 7,000 soldiers of the Northern Army who died in the Huaian Rebellion, but who could find their families with names, would be given 10 taels of silver and money, not in the name of pension, but in the name of relief.

The Huai'an Rebellion was basically a cold deal. Lu Si did not investigate anyone involved in this matter, nor did he intend to criticize Yu Huai's book in the army. Although the liquidation would have a high degree of integration of the Huai Army's thoughts, time did not allow Lu Si to do so.

If it is really necessary to settle the matter, a charge of "surrenderism" and a crime of "trying to split the Huai Army" will be enough to make the Huai Army recognize the bad impact of Yu Huai's book line on the Huai Army.

On March 29, Lu Bi from Suzhou returned to the good news that the Dashun army captured Beijing. It was ten days after Chongzhen hanged himself. At the same time, Lu Bizhou urged Lu Si to lead his troops north as Dong Xueli was under increasing pressure.

The fall of Beijing made Liu Zeqing crazy and supervised his troops to attack Xuzhou every day. In order to consume the supplies of Shun Army in the city, this guy even took the people captured nearby to attack the city by forcibly, using the bodies of the people to fill the moat in Xuzhou, and consuming the firearms and arrows on the city.

In fact, Lu Si was a little confused. According to Liu Zeqing's repeated villain character, since he knew that Beijing had fallen and Chongzhen hanged himself, he was still fighting for nothing and directly changed his flag and surrendered to Shanxi. Isn't it great that the Ming generals of Xuanda transformed into Shunjun like Shun?

Zheng Biao explained that Liu Zeqing's reputation was so bad that even Dashun would not accept him.

Lu Si felt that this might be the reason, and accepting surrender is not as simple as changing the banner. He had to give territory and food and salary.

However, the cake is so big, and Shandong is under the eyes of the capital. Although it has been harmed by the Qing army several times, Shandong is relatively good compared to Henan and Hebei. In this way, the military leaders of Dashun Central will not allow Liu Zeqing, a scum, to continue to be a local overlord in Shandong.

Lu Si informed the entire army of the fall of Beijing and also informed Liu Bao of Yangzhou. But at the same time, he concealed the news that Chongzhen had died for his country, and instead asked Zheng Biao to send people to spread rumors that Chongzhen had not died for his country. On the day when Beijing fell, the emperor left the city and fled to Tianjin and might have gone south by the sea.

Zheng Biao was puzzled and asked why he did this.

"If Nandu knew that Chongzhen was dead and that the three sons had not escaped, they would consider who to support the Ming Dynasty as the new king. Although it would take half a while to support which royal family, they would still have to make an emperor come out in the end, so we have to say that Chongzhen is not dead!"

Lu Si would not let Nandu produce a new emperor immediately. As long as he blocks the road and spreads the news of Chongzhen's death to Jiangnan, Nandu wants to find out the truth, at least one or two months. Then, it will be another month for Tang and Gui, and some trouble.

And he never forgets the blessings

Since the rise of the Huai bandits in Jiangbei, they first occupied Huai'an and then seized Yangzhou, Nanjing has actually not received any reports from the north.

The people of Nandu don’t know the truth about the Battle of Shi Kefa, and the nobles and ministers don’t know where they are.

So what can I do if I know? Which of them has the backbone of Shi Kefa dares to confront the Huai thieves?

Who dares to laugh at Shi Kefa’s incompetence?

Who dares to lead troops to Jiangbei to ping the thieves!

Zhu Guobi's fate was there. I heard that in order to redeem the Funing Marquis, his concubine Kou Baimen only brought a maid to cross the river to meet the thief. Who in the Nandu City dares to compare with this courage?

Later, I heard that Kou Baimen sold all his industries in order to release more than 700 officers and soldiers captured by the thieves, and started to raise 10,000 taels of gold to redeem people. Who can compare this chivalrous heart in Nandu?

The officers and soldiers who returned from crossing the river all said that Koubaimen was the reincarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva!

The biggest reason why Shi Kefa listened to Duke Wei's advice to cross the river and return to Nandu instead of insisting on dying in Guazhou was that the thieves ignored him at all because of the words "If Beijing is in danger, half of the wall will rely on Duke Wei."

Thinking that the Ming Dynasty was all over his shoulders, Shi Kefa regained his strength and returned to Nandu and summoned ministers from various yamen, eunuchs and ministers all came to discuss the matter of mobilizing troops across the river to pacify the thieves.

However, in the conference hall, the group of people in Nandu frowned. Look at me, look at you, stare at you, stare at you, and you can't tell me, and no one can tell me that Ding Chou and Zimao is coming. Some people even stare at the beams on the house from beginning to end, except for sighing.

The soldiers are no longer able to be transferred.

Shi Kefa personally commanded the journey and even crossed the Jiang and fought a battle with the thieves. The Beijing camp was a mutiny halfway through the way, and even the thief shadow was not seen.

In terms of military morale, where are there any soldiers and generals who dare to cross the river to pacify the thieves?

However, some people have suggested that in addition to mobilizing troops to combat the thieves, the general Zhang Tianlu, the general of Zhenjiang, should be punished for escape at the last battle.

As a result, Shi Kefa hesitated for a long time and exposed the matter on the grounds that he was afraid that the Zhang brothers would surrender the thief.

In the end, everyone reached a consensus that Shi Kefa led the release of the Nandu Duke's proclamation "The urgent matter of uprising the people of the world to serve the king and donate money". The proclamation mentioned the dangers of the clan and society such as "the consumption of the north and the south is not connected, and the dangers of the rivers and mountains are lost." However, there were no practical measures in the proclamation except for the righteous words. If so, it was called on the people to donate money.
