The Qing general guarding Jinan Mansion is called Wen Ketu, a Jia La Ezhen from Zhengbai Banner. In addition to the troops that Bulin took away, there are currently six Mongolian Jia La in Jinan City.
, and ten Han troops Niulu, totaling more than 7,000 troops.
Ever since Abatai led his army southward, Wen Ketu alone had the final say in this three-thirds of an acre of land in Jinan Prefecture. And the Ming army hid far away and did not dare to fight the Qing army at all. Wen Ketu
Tu is not as belligerent as Brin. When he goes out to rob and rob things, Brin basically takes care of it. Wenketu lives in Jinan Mansion. He eats delicacies every day and drinks aged wine.
There was no shortage of beautiful Han women to sleep with him, so although he was not as happy as Abatai living in Prince Lu's Mansion, Wenketu had lived a good life in the past two months.
However, just two days ago, the defeated troops in Linxian County had fled back to Jinan Prefecture and reported to Wenketu that Bulin's men were defeated by the Ming army and that the entire army was basically wiped out.
After hearing this, Winktu was shocked, but the concept of despising the Ming army that had been formed for a long time was still very strong. Therefore, Brin's troops were wiped out. Winktu did not think that this was due to the Ming army's combat effectiveness.
Strong, this must be because Brin, this idiot, was so useless that he was defeated by the Ming army. If he had been the leader, he would definitely not be the same.
Ordinarily, at this time, Wenketu should immediately send troops to avenge Bulin, but the garrison in Jinan was not large to begin with, and without Bulin's 3,000 troops, it would be even more stretched. Wenketu was not afraid of an attack by the Ming army.
When we came to Jinan Prefecture, and with so many supplies and people gathered in Jinan, we couldn't have an accident. In addition, Winktu was not as warlike as Brin, so he endured this and did not send troops.
At the same time, Winktu didn't believe that even if Brin's three thousand troops were defeated by the Ming army, they would not be completely wiped out. He must be hiding there to gather the defeated troops, and maybe he wanted to turn defeat into victory? Wenktu
Tu planned to wait a few days to see if there was any news from Brin, so he did not send anyone to Yanzhou Prefecture to report to Abatai for the time being.
But after waiting for several days, no news was received from Bulin. Instead, the Ming army came from Qingzhou, and the Ming army troops occupied Licheng County.
Licheng County is less than ten miles away from Jinan Prefecture. Because the Qing army did not have enough troops and only one Han army, Niu Lu, was stationed there, it was easily defeated by the Ming army. Naturally, Wenketu could no longer stand still this time.
Moreover, he also learned that the Ming army only had five or six thousand troops and was not a large army, so he immediately ordered that all the troops in the city be prepared to go out of the city to face the Ming army.
Although some people suggested that Wenketu send people to ask for help from Abate in Yanzhou, Wenketu was full of confidence and believed that he would be able to defeat the Ming army. Why bother to ask for help from Yanzhou? After defeating the Ming army, he would directly go to Yanzhou for help.
At this time, Jinan City was transformed into a large concentration camp and warehouse. The money, materials, grain, people and livestock stolen by the Qing army from Hebei and Shanxi were all piled up in Jinan City, and the number was still increasing.
Therefore, even Qing Jun himself could not tell how many things he had robbed.
After the Qing army stationed in Jinan, they simply sorted out the population, separated the craftsmen from the population, kept them in separate custody, and repaired and manufactured some simple tools and weapons for the Qing army. Generally, four to six people lived in a room and were served by waiters.
It's not too bad, because the Qing army attaches great importance to craftsmen, so as long as they are honest and obedient and work hard, the Qing army will generally not make things difficult for them.
In addition, the Qing army selected more than 5,000 young women from the population, imprisoned them in one place, and were responsible for cooking and washing every day. Of course, it also provided a place for the Qing soldiers to vent their bestiality. Every night
There will be many Qing soldiers coming here to have fun. There are also Qing soldiers who can't stop during the day and come to find women to vent their anger. Therefore, day and night, the cries of humiliated women can be heard.
The vast majority of the remaining people are being detained in a residential house in the southwest of Jinan City, with a population of about hundreds of thousands. This group of people also suffered the most misfortune. Because there are too many people and the place where they live is too large.
It is small, with more than a dozen people squeezed into one room every day, and many people have to sleep outdoors. Not only that, these people eat only scraps, and moldy and spoiled food is common, and they cannot be stabilized.
supply. And only so much is delivered each time, and they leave as soon as they are distributed. Those who have not received the food are not cared about at all.
Therefore, every time it is time to deliver food, there will be a fierce fight, otherwise you will not be able to grab the food. And those who grab the food must eat it as quickly as possible, otherwise they will die in the blink of an eye.
It will be snatched away by countless others.
The old, weak, sick and young cannot get food, so they can only survive day by day until they can no longer endure it. At the same time, many people fight each other to death every day because of the competition for food. In this environment,
The Chinese people are not united, and their habit of infighting has not changed. Small gangs have quickly formed based on blood ties in rural areas, and they are constantly fighting among themselves. Here, human life has become the least valuable thing.
Almost every day, dozens of corpses were brought out of the city and buried. Many people were even carried out before they had completely died.
The Qing army did not pay any attention to the internal fighting among the captured people. Sometimes they would watch the fun and even make bets. However, when work was needed, they had to draw manpower from the captured people, so in order to effectively control
, and selected dozens of people from the captured people to act as minions to help them manage and organize the captured people.
Because you can get a good meal by working as a coolie for the Qing army, once a job is assigned, the captured people will flock to it like vultures. However, when it comes to assigning manpower, it is the minions who assign it, so
The captured people would please them one after another in peacetime, and among the Chinese, there has always been no shortage of candidates for traitors, so a group of people also used the prestige of the Qing army to act arrogant and arrogant among the captured people.
.
Facts have proved that fake Japs are often worse than real Japs. They are always arrogant and arrogant in front of their compatriots. When the food comes, not only do they eat it first, but someone also delivers it to them, so they can also enjoy it.
People were asked about their housing, and some women who managed to escape from the claws of the Qing army became their playthings in the camp.
That night, in an uninhabited hut in a corner in the southeast of Jinan City, seven or eight people gathered together one after another. They were all Jin Yiwei who had sneaked into Jinan City.
Zhao Congfu said: "Have you found out clearly the tasks assigned to each of you in the past few days?"
Several other people said one after another: "Zhao Tou, don't worry, we have found out all these things."
With that said, everyone took out the scrolls from their arms and handed them to Zhao Congfu. These are the targets and tasks that everyone has inquired about in the past few days, including the Qing army's troop distribution, the layout of the city defense, the layout of the city, etc.
.Because the Ming army did not dare to fight the Qing army at all, the Qing army also became a little slack. In addition, the scale of Jinan City was very large, and there were so many people and supplies that needed to be guarded, so the Qing army could not take care of it at all.
, which just provided convenience for the actions of Zhao Congfu and others.
Zhao Congfu asked about it and found that the basic situation was completed well, so he was quite satisfied and said: "In a day or two, Shang Yi's men will arrive. You can spread the news among the people and organize it.
You can be a support person in the city at some point."
Others were very happy after hearing this. Some people said: "It's finally here. To be honest, if it wasn't for the overall situation, I would have killed a few Tatars a long time ago. It's so hateful. The Tatars won't kill us at all."
If you look at the people of the Ming Dynasty as human beings, their lives are worse than those of dogs."
"If you ask me, these people are too cowardly. They are very capable in fighting among themselves, but they dare not use their strength to fight with the Tatars. There are hundreds of thousands of them, while the Tatars only have six or seven thousand, twenty
If several people fight for one, they can win no matter what, and even if they die, they can die happily.
"There are also those minions selected by the Tatars who did more ruthless and bad things than the Tatars. I have recorded a group of them in my scriptures. Once Jinan Prefecture is recaptured, these people will never be spared."
Zhao Congfu said: "Okay, no matter what, everyone just needs to be patient for a day or two. As soon as Shang Yi's men arrive, we can settle the accounts with the Tatars."
At this time, a guard in Jinyi was a little worried and said: "Zhao Tou, do you think Shang Yi's men can regain Jinan Mansion? If he fails to capture Jinan Mansion, wouldn't all our hard work these days be in vain?
Yet?"
In fact, Zhao Congfu was not absolutely sure in his heart, but he couldn't say anything else at this time, so he had to say: "Don't worry! It's not like you haven't seen the battle to regain Linqu County. Shang Yi's men are still fighting against the Tatars.
If he has a way, I think he can do it. You all prepare yourselves, just wait for Shang Yi to attack the city, and be in the city to support him."
At this time, Shang Yi's troops arrived in Licheng County and received a report from Zhao Congfu.
Judging from the situation provided by Zhao Congfu, this time the Qing army will not stay in Jinan City to defend, but will take the initiative to go out of the city to fight against the Muling Army. This is of course what Shang Yi hopes to see. Moreover, the number of Qing troops is also
Not many, estimated to be around 6,000. With the combat effectiveness of the Muling Army, it is entirely possible to order the entire army to prepare to fight the Qing Army outside Licheng County.
At the same time, Wu Hansheng was sent to lead a reconnaissance team of forty soldiers to sneak back to Jinan Prefecture with Zhao Congfu. Only after the Muling army defeated the Qing army, they went to attack Jinan Prefecture and responded in the city.
Shortly after Zhao Congfu left, the Qing army arrived in front of Licheng County. Shang Yi immediately ordered that 2,000 troops from Qingzhou Prefecture guard Licheng County, and all 5,000 Muling troops came out of the city to fight the Qing army.
