Liu Pei specifically took action at this time, just to calculate that the court had no spare energy to deal with him. After the Intelligence Bureau confirmed that Emperor Chongzhen had no plan to deal with him, Liu Pei felt at ease to act according to his plan.

As for the imperial edict from the court, Liu Pei threw it away after reading it, and just pretended it was nothing! The documents that officials and gentry from all over the country called for help from the court were as if they were in a sea of ​​sank. Seeing this situation, they also understood the seriousness of the matter and finally calmed down, thinking about how to please Liu Pei and save the life of the family business!

In this way, Liu Pei from Hebei Province in the north won the Daming Prefecture and Guangping Prefecture. If Liu Pei had not considered that he could not overstimulate the court, he would have won the Shunde Prefecture and Hejian Prefecture together!

As for Liu Pei, Henan, who obtained all the Guide Prefecture and Runing Prefecture, there was half of the Kaifeng Prefecture, and Jiangsu, who obtained all the Huai'an Prefecture and Xuzhou Prefecture, and half of the Fengyang Prefecture. At this point, the territory controlled by Liu Pei doubled out of thin air!

All the way to these territories, the first thing he did was to send all the newly recruited soldiers out to suppress the bandits.

Only some areas of these places have not changed much, while some places have either been harmed by the Qing army or been robbed by the rebels. The places have long been in chaos, and there are only some people around each county town. Other places can be said to be without people for thousands of miles and without roosters crowing for hundreds of miles. The rest are all bandits and bandits.

But the bandits in these places were ruled. They were determined to run away when the bandits heard the sound of the wind, or simply surrendered to Li Zicheng. The remaining bandits who were forced to become bandits were not full every day, so the army drove down the mountain and surrendered one by one! However, the recruits were very unhappy!

After the soldiers were sent out to suppress the bandits, the civil servants sent by Liu Pei also played a role. The first thing they did was to clear up unjust prisons and crack down on the powerful!

However, Liu Pei tried his best to restrain his subordinates from killing too much. He even picked out one or two gentry members with great anger in each place to kill them as a warning to everyone. He did not attack other gentry members!

After so many years, Liu Pei and Fang Degang have already summarized a large set of governance areas.

Fang's experience and various texts were formed and sent. Before the bloody smell of the newly appointed civil servants disappeared, they took the notebook and started to manage the place in the same way.

However, these people generally have low positions and are usually at the grassroots level. More senior civil servants are those trained by Liu Pei.

Over the past decade, Liu Pei has not forgotten to cultivate his administrative staff for a moment, and now it is finally time to start to gain. Moreover, these people have been deputy local officials and familiar with local things. Now they are in charge of the country, and they feel that they have finally had an environment to perform and have put in great strength!

Many of them were originally officials of the Ming Dynasty. They did not do well in their original office for one reason or another, but now they have been under Liu Pei’s command, and they all use eighteen martial arts. After the efforts of these people, Liu Pei has completely settled down in just over a month!

At this time, the most urgent thing is that it is not Emperor Chongzhen, but the civil and military officials and vassal kings in big cities like Kaifeng.

Take Kaifeng Prefecture as an example. At the beginning, they didn't find anything. But suddenly, the officers came to report that the county magistrates of several surrounding counties had changed people, and a large number of troops moved in! Now the order from the city of the city is not good to leave the city!

If Liu Pei had not promised that Laizhou would not be Kaifeng and that the passage was still retained on the east side of Kaifeng City, then Kaifeng City would have become an isolated city! But Kaifeng City is still good, and cities like Xuzhou are simply an isolated city!

At first, officials at all levels thought that Liu Pei had rebelled, and they trembled to rectify the defense of the troops and horses! Some even prepared to surrender to Liu Pei, but they waited for a long time but did not come!

When they found out that Liu Pei had not come to attack, the surrounding villagers could enter the city to do business as usual without anyone stopping them, so they calmed down a little. However, villagers could enter and exit freely, but the government was not allowed to enter and exit, and were restricted to the city!

Only when Liu Pei's Anmin notice was posted at the city gate did these civil and military officials completely relieved. However, after they felt relieved, they felt a burst of pain in their hearts!

you

It’s okay if you Liu Pei rebels or attacks directly! But what is the purpose of ignoring this kind of surround? At least you can give us a step forward! As long as you attack, we will naturally surrender! But what should we do now that we are not up or down?

Not long after, a news came, and everyone immediately realized it! The news was that Xuzhou opened the city directly and forced Liu Pei's subordinates to take over Xuzhou city!

The reason for this is very simple. In order to split Liu Pei's troops, Liu Pei took the opportunity to plant Fan Hualong in Xuzhou.

With the support of Shandong, Fan Hualong was strong and was not under local control at all. Instead, he was suppressed by local governments so much that he couldn't breathe! But no matter what, there was a relationship between the local officials in Xuzhou and Fan Hualong.

After Xuzhou was surrounded, the officials in the city were like ants on a hot pan, discussing how to solve the current problem for a long time every day, but never discussing the result!

After more than half a month, a master finally gave an idea to the prefect of Xuzhou. Wasn’t Fan Hualong stationed in Xuzhou? And now he has taken charge of half of Jiangsu’s troops! He just wanted to take Xuzhou in his head! Anyway, Liu Pei has not raised the anti-flagship yet, and at least he still has the banner of Ming Dynasty, with a fig leaf on it!

When the Xuzhou prefect heard this, he felt aroused and ran to the military camp outside Xuzhou city overnight and invited Fan Hualong to the city for a banquet. His attitude was extremely humble, saying that it was a banquet specially set up by everyone to apologize to Fan Hualong before.

Fan Hualong had strong soldiers in his hands, so he didn't care whether these officials would murder him. Besides, he was very angry with local officials back then, so he naturally had to go there in the early stages of his chance!

That night, many local officials apologized and toasted, and Jiang Fan Hualong was confused. Although he was not drunk, he could not return to the military camp and rested in Xuzhou City.
Chapter completed!
