On February 11, four days later, Xu Changqing received the news that Yanzhou was destroyed and Prince Lu's mansion was destroyed.

The main reason is that the Qing army blocked this area with extremely strict blockades, and it is difficult for the model army to truly penetrate the night without stopping system.

As the news from Yanzhou came, the main force of the Qing army had already been active in Qufu and Jining near Yanzhou, and it was obvious that they wanted to attack these two cities.

Especially Qufu, as the hometown of a saint, it is extremely precious. The news of the Qing army's activities around it has caused great chaos in the central and southern Shandong areas, panic everywhere, and is spreading rapidly towards the nearby areas.

In this state, even Liu Zeqing, who is as cunning as a loach, cannot find a reason to shirk it. He is stepping up preparations for the war and preparing to rescue Qufu.

The Nanjing side also seems to be actively preparing.

"Donkey balls, these dogs and Tartars really don't know how to live or die! If Qufu is broken, we will be passive."

At the Haicheng Official Department, Xu Changqing also convened the bigwigs from both military and political parties to discuss the matter as soon as he received the news.

Zhao Zengjin was much more mature at this time, frowned and spat hard.

Xu Changqing looked at Li Yan, Li Hongyun, Yang Zhongliang and others with expressionless face, "Everyone, do you have any ideas?"

Li Yan frowned and said, "Although the city of Qufu is small, it has been repaired for thousands of years and has been repaired throughout the dynasties. The Kong family also has many private soldiers. In addition, the troops in the surrounding areas cannot be rescued. It is impossible for the Qing army to defeat the city in a short period of time. But this also poses a big problem for us. If we do not save Qufu, it will be difficult for all parties to explain this matter..."

After Li Yan finished speaking, the hall suddenly discussed softly.

This is the advantage of the Qing army's strong mobility. If it does not bloom here and there, there will always be places where it can bloom.

As long as they can find such a place, they can easily become passive to active.

Li Hongyun sighed at this time: "At this time, King Lu was destroyed. As a garrison in Shandong, this stain is not easy to clean up. But if I am afraid, if my model army sends troops to rescue Qufu, the Tatars will kill and attack Qingzhou, what should we do?"

"this……"

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other.

During the Ming Dynasty, losing the vassal was an unforgivable serious crime. In Yanzhou, Xu Changqing was lucky enough to refuse. After all, it was not Xu Changqing's scope of responsibility. But once Qingzhou was lost, Xu Changqing had to continue the dirty water if he didn't want to take it.

Yang Zhongliang said: "What's this? We, Haicheng, finally drove the Tartars away. How could this kind of dirty water be poured on us at will?"

As the steward of the Xu family, this old man has been smart all his life, but his situation is limited. It is okay to deal with some familiar government affairs. If we really talk about the overall situation, he is no match for Li Yan and Li Hongyun.

Zhang Hongqiang said: "Brother, the situation is already unavoidable at this time. According to the opinions of our subordinates, we should still be the mainstay of firming ourselves. The reason why the Tartars set up such a dragon gate formation is not without the intention of seizing us out. Even if the main force of our model army goes out, the main force of the Tartars is very likely to attack Haicheng again! We may be able to prepare for war and wait and see the situation first."

...

The military discussion lasted for more than two hours, and it drove from afternoon to evening, but it never made any sense.

The military was in high spirits at this time, but he wanted to go out to fight and try it out with the main force of the Qing army in the wild, but the Political Affairs Office killed him and did not want to take risks.

Although this state was the result of Xu Changqing's deliberate plan, Xu Changqing was also a little messy at this time.

After all, even if he comes from later generations and has the experience of crushing this world, Xu Changqing is doing well in his later generations, but he lacks experience in the end. Faced with such a situation where he is not careful, he will be doomed and his strength is not strong enough, so it is difficult for Xu Changqing to make a choice.

Xu Changqing fell into deep thoughts on the red line.

What exactly do Dorgon and the Tartars want to do?

Before the situation is clear, I am afraid that this situation can only be maintained temporarily.

...

"Damn it!"

"waste!"

"All of them are waste! Why did I raise you bunch of waste! Ah——"

Early the next morning, he happened to go to court. In Kunning Palace, Emperor Chongzhen also received the news of the fall of Yanzhou. He immediately couldn't hold back and vented his precious tea sets against Queen Zhou and his "crackling".

How long has it been? In less than two years, another vassal king was lost...

Especially now, not only the Lu family, but the Tartars have also set their sights on the hometown of the saints...

This is simply a big mouth and slap in the face of Emperor Chongzhen, who has always claimed to be a saint and lord!

‘Are you really a tyrant monarch who is unforgivable?’

For a moment, Emperor Chongzhen suspected himself a little.

The eunuchs and palace maids around had already been hiding far away. Who would dare to offend Emperor Chongzhen's bad habit in this state?

"Your Majesty, calm down, calm down. Why did you get such a big temper in the early morning?"

At this time, Empress Zhou also got up, put on a phoenix robe, and hurriedly came over to comfort Emperor Chongzhen.

If anyone else dares to appease the angry Emperor Chongzhen at this time, she, Empress Zhou, is the only one in the world.

Seeing that it was his beloved wife coming, Emperor Chongzhen felt a little relieved, but his sadness and depression were even heavier. Tears were about to flow out. He looked at Empress Zhou's beautiful eyes with red eyes: "Empress, is it really a foolish monarch? Why should I treat me like this in this world!!!"

Queen Zhou was frightened.

She has been married to Emperor Chongzhen for nearly twenty years and has followed him at the age of thirteen or fourteen. She has never seen Emperor Chongzhen lose his composure so much.

I was busy picking up the battle report and looking carefully. After a moment, I couldn't help but cover my mouth in horror: "Your Majesty, this, this..."

She wanted to comfort her husband, but she was just a little girl from an ordinary family. Even though she had been in the world for many years, her struggle was sparse and she had no way to persuade Emperor Chongzhen for a moment.

Fortunately, Emperor Chongzhen had already recovered a little at this time and wiped his tears suddenly and said, "Empress, I'm sorry, I've lost my composure. You have a good rest. I'll call the cabinet for a meeting right away!"

"Emperor, Emperor..."

Empress Zhou wanted to say something, but Emperor Chongzhen had already made great strides out of the main hall and was already ruthless!

Even if the prosperous Jining is lost, Qufu must not be lost!

Since Xu Changqing's Haicheng has defended the siege of the main force of the Qing army, let Xu Changqing save Qufu!

The Ming Dynasty must not lose face like this anymore, and there is no more shame left.

...

Xu Changqing received an imperial edict from Emperor Chongzhen to send troops to rescue Qufu early the next morning!

The imperial edict was sent over in a hurry of eight hundred miles. In addition to the imperial edict to send troops, there was also a secret edict from Emperor Chongzhen to Xu Changqing, requiring Xu Changqing to protect Qufu City no matter what, and would not give Xu Changqing the opportunity to refuse!

In this instant, Xu Changqing was also placed on the fire and roasted!

How to save Qufu in this state?

With the defensive ability of the Model Army at this time and the confidence it has been built up, even without the support of artillery, Xu Changqing is really worth a fight with the Qing army.

But~~, once the main force of the Model Army leaves Haicheng, how should we deal with the simple defense of Haicheng, including Qingzhou?

After appeased the father-in-law who was sent the order, he went to rest first. Xu Changqing looked at the eunuch Li who was accompanying the order and answering the order: "Father-in-law, what do you think about this?"

"Forehead……"

The forehead of Mr. Li is cold

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Sweat had already flowed out, and my calves were trembling for a moment.

At this time, he finally understood why Xu Changqing had been suppressing the battle report from Haicheng and was not sent to the capital as soon as possible.

This master's vision, including his understanding of the emperor, is far superior to his countless...

If he hadn't had his own initiative and secretly sent the previous war report to the capital, how could he have now...

"Eunuch Li?"

It has reached this state and when it comes to the exact position, how could Xu Changqing treat Eunuch Li many more?

"thump!"

Eunuch Li actually knelt down in front of Xu Changqing, swallowing with great difficulty: "Brother, how can you be rash in military and national affairs? You must be determined by long-term plans. I, I think..."

He wanted to say something, but Xu Changqing interrupted him rudely and sneered playfully: "Dadfather-in-law, what do you mean is to let Benben resist the order and refuse to obey?"

"No, no, no, no, uncle, uncle, uncle, I don't mean this. I mean, we have just gone through a war and we must rest and rest before we can send troops!"

The fishy liquid oozed out from the crotch of Eunuch Li, and he kowtowed to Xu Changqing desperately.

During this difficult time, he quickly made the right choice.

"Father-in-law, who was born me, who was the parents, and who knew me!"

Xu Changqing hurriedly smiled and helped Eunuch Li up: "My father-in-law, with your words, I will feel much more at ease. Do you think, if Haicheng is gone, how should we men deal with it? Will anyone take us in beggars? Or, let the Tartars make us jerky?"

After sending out the scattered Eunuch Li, Xu Changqing poured a large cup of tea with a "gudong Gudong", and the anger in his heart still could not be extinguished for a long time.

Although he had known that Emperor Chongzhen would be in trouble for a long time, Xu Changqing did not expect anything from him, but when things actually happened, Xu Changqing was still a little unbearable!

How far has the great lands of the Ming Dynasty and the foundation of the ancestors for nearly three hundred years reached? Haven’t he even counted?

Do you really think that military and national affairs are a joke?

However, it is impossible to resist the order and not follow it.

To be honest, Xu Changqing is unwilling to give up Qufu if he has a choice!
