Shandong, Jiningzhou.

The one who guarded the city was the Shence Army Xiaoguo Camp.

As the second batch of training recruit battalions of the Shence Army, the soldiers in the Xiaoguo Camp had a short training time, so they were left in Jining Prefecture, which was in the southernmost direction.

This place is backed by Xuzhou, which is a safe rear. Generally, there will be no enemy attacks.

Under the leadership of the officers, the soldiers worked hard in the city's collegiate field, and they all sweated profusely.

"Everyone is working hard, don't be weak and soft, as if I didn't give you food."

Wang Fugui walked past teams of recruits and kicked them at the butts from time to time.

Half a month ago, he was transferred from Xuanwu Camp to Xiaoguo Camp to be responsible for the training of new recruits.

As an experienced officer, Wang Fugui could tell at a glance that the problem of these recruits lies in their mentality.

These people probably thought that they would be able to get a golden rice bowl after entering the Shence Army, so they became lazy in training.

This is not a good sign. If a trend is formed, it will affect the combat effectiveness of the entire battalion army.

Wang Fugui walked to a jujube tree, wiped his sweat, untied his cowhide and raised his neck to drink water.

Gudongdongdong, Gudongdongdong.

After pouring a cowhide of water, Wang Fugui felt that he could quench his thirst.

Damn it, it's mid-August and it's still so hot.

Wang Fugui sat down cross-legged under the jujube tree, and suddenly remembered Liu Sanshui and others, and they actually missed him.

I don't know how these guys are doing now.

They all came from a small team, and their emotions were naturally deeper than ordinary robes. Wang Fugui was the oldest among them, and treated Liu Sanshui and others as his own younger brothers.

Alas, it would be great if I could be transferred back to Xuanwu Camp as soon as possible. If I stay in Jiningzhou, I will almost have a bird.

Wang Fugui just closed his eyes and wanted to squint, but he felt that someone was patting his shoulder.

When I opened my eyes, I saw who was not the leader of the Xiaoguo Camp, Shen Fu.

It is said that General Shen was a regular direct descendant of the Eastern Palace. He was a guard when the Holy Emperor was still the prince. No wonder the Shence Army would choose him as the battalion chief after the establishment of a new camp.

"General Shen, I just take a break. The weather is too hot..."

Wang Fugui seemed a little embarrassed and hurriedly stood up to explain.

Shen Fu pushed his hands and said, "Get everyone to the North Gate."

"What? Gather everyone?"

Wang Fugui blurted out.

As soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it. Obedience in the army is the right reason, and asking too many questions is easily disgusted by Shangfeng.

"I'll go!"

Wang Fugui straightened his back and promised.

After a moment, all the recruits on the school ground were gathered in front of the north gate to receive Chen Fu's lecture.

Chen Fu glanced and said loudly: "I am led by the commander Zhao to lead Xiaoguo Camp to Jiningzhou and should defend the city. Now Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo's troops are heading north, but this is not received the imperial edict or the commander Zhao's order, so I suspect that this is a riot!"

hiss!

Wang Fugui gasped when he heard this.

The two Liu troops went north? This is a big deal.

"From now on the day of the martial law in Jiningzhou, the four gates are closed. No one is allowed to leave the city without the order of this general."

Chen Fu said with great momentum, and all the soldiers looked at each other.

Judging from this posture, it seems like a fight can start at any time.

Liu Liangzuo and Liu Zeqing were both generals appointed by the court. Did they really rebel?

But it is better to trust this kind of thing than to trust it without it.

If the Liu army is really a rebellious soldier, it is indeed a major threat to Jiningzhou.

With an order from the top, the people below will naturally run away.

Jiningzhou is a continent and there are many people in the city.

It took a lot of effort to post martial law notices all over the city.

Chen Fu sent nearly a thousand people to each market to post notices and publicize martial law orders to the people.

For the people of Jining Prefecture, martial law is not a strange thing at all.

Shandong is not a peaceful place these days. The bandits have come and the government troops are fighting all the time.

Since the military man said martial law should be strictly enforced, it would be safe to stay in the city.

The remaining more than a thousand people were dispatched to guard the city gates, and under Chen Fu's order, they carried huge rocks to block the city gates.

After finishing all this, Chen Fu felt a little relieved.

He looked down from the city, but saw a dark circle coming towards Jiningzhou. There were tens of thousands of people.

Less than a moment later, the vanguard battalion of the second Liu army arrived at the city of Jiningzhou.

An archer stepped out of the line and shot the arrows tied with books at the top of the city.

Chen Fu untied the book tied to the arrow and opened it, and couldn't help but frown.

The book was written by Liu Liangzuo, saying that they were ordered by the Ministry of War to rush to Shandong to join Gao Jie's army to fight with the northern expedition. Now passing by Jining Prefecture, they asked the city guards to open the city gate and let them go into the city to replenish supplies and rest.

At first glance, Liu Liangzuo's words looked nothing wrong, but when he thought about it carefully, he found that there were loopholes.

If Liu Liangzuo and Liu Zeqing were really transferred by the imperial court, why wouldn't they go directly from Fengyang Prefecture to Henan to cooperate with Gao Jie's troops stationed in Guide Prefecture, but instead go far to Shandong to find a big circle?

Besides, His Majesty sent the Shen Ce Army to Shandong to support Gao Jie's troops in case of an accident. Why did he send Er Liu to come again? Isn't this a contradiction?

The more Chen Fu thought about it, the more he felt that Liu Liangzuo’s statement was untenable, and he decided that the troops of the second Liu were riots.

In this case, of course he would not open the city gate, but directly rejected Liu Liangzuo and Liu Zeqing's request to enter the city.

Outside the city of Jiningzhou, in the central army's tent.

Liu Liangzuo sneered: "A mere battalion general dares to refuse me. When I capture Jiningzhou, I will definitely dismember this guy from the five horses!"

Liu Zeqing hurriedly advised, "Brother, don't be angry. This guy is just a pawn, just doing things on orders. It's easy for the old brother to take down Jining Prefecture, but I think he shouldn't spend more time in Jining Prefecture now, but he should continue to go north."

How could Liu Liangzuo not understand what Liu Zeqing meant?

This time they raised their troops north to join Qing Dynasty, and it was the bridge built by his younger brother Liu Liangchen.

As early as after the Battle of Daling River, Liu Liangchen followed Zu Dashou to the Qing Dynasty.

Although Liu Liangchen's official position was not too high, he surrendered early and had a seniority.

Over the years, I have been considering to have some status.

This time, the Qing court originally wanted to surrender Xu Dingguo, the general of Henan stationed in Suizhou. However, Liu Liangchen offered advice and suggested sending people to sneak into Fengyang Prefecture and instigate Liu Liangzuo to surrender.

Anyway, Fengyang and Henan are also bordered, so Dorgon happily agreed after thinking about it.

Liu Liangzuo acted very cautiously. If the Qing court's messenger suddenly came, he might not agree immediately. However, the messenger also brought a handwritten letter from his younger brother Liu Liangchen.

In the letter, Liu Liangchen described the preferential treatment he received after surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, and persuaded Liu Liangzuo to lead his troops north to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, and said that the Regent would at least promise him the position of general.
