"Cut them all!" Chen Zhilong, who had a bubble on his lips, said in a hoarse voice. As his words fell, the personal soldiers behind him, who were like wolves and tigers, pressed a group of officers in general clothes to the ground, and then took their hands as they cried and wailed, and more than a dozen still steaming heads rolled on the snowy land.

"General Chen, I hope you will be more pursuing the troops in the future and not letting the things in front of you repeat. To be honest, if it weren't for General Dong Xueli, you wouldn't have passed this time with his military achievements, so I hope you will be able to do it so easily. I'll rush to the front and report to General Mo, and there will be a period of time later." Che Yan, the deputy captain of the first brigade of the forward team, bowed to Chen Zhilong, and then rode away with his followers.

Today is January 16, and two days have passed since the battle to siege Gao Di's 15,000 people. When Dong Xueyi's rituals shook the enemy's front on the afternoon of the 14th, Gao Di became ruthless and personally organized his own soldiers to suppress Dong Xueyi's rituals back. However, after the battle was midnight, Gao Di, who had many casualties, knew that the situation was hopeless and began to order a breakthrough.

The more than 10,000 Qing troops still chose Chen Zhilong's troops, which had weak combat power, as a breakthrough point. They used the selection of the edge as a sharp knife and the elite cavalry as a follow-up. Driven by the will to survive in death, they actually broke through more than 5,000 troops deployed on the east side of Chen Zhilong's troops, and then took advantage of the darkness to break through, regardless of the formation, and fled to the Yimeng Mountain in the east like a desperate attempt.

When Mo Ming learned that the enemy broke through, he immediately ordered the entire team to pursue and stand up. The cavalry brigade was the first to set off, followed by the New Army of the Eight Banners of South Africa, followed by the East Coast Army. As for Chen Zhilong, who defeated the Qing army that night, Mo Ming originally planned to dismiss his post and investigate. Fortunately, Dong Xueli used his military achievements as a guarantee. At the same time, Mao Desheng also advised Mo Ming not to do such a thing that might cause the surrendered generals to doubt for the time being, so Chen Zhilong stayed on his post by luck. However, the more than ten generals who escaped last night were not so lucky. In order to show his feelings, Chen Zhilong personally ordered the killing of these ten old brothers who had been with him for many years under the surveillance of the East Coast officers, which was considered an explanation to Marshal Mo.

As for the more than 10,000 Gaodi's troops who were defeated, they were constantly chasing them under the head of the East Coast army, and they kept losing their troops. Finally, they were attacked by the East Coast cavalry who rushed over, and most of them were surrounded by Baodugu in the Yimeng Mountains. Only less than a thousand cavalry were lucky enough to escape from the pursuit of the East Coast army under the leadership of Gaodi, and fled south towards Xuzhou. After chasing for a while, the cavalry brigade led by Yang Mingyang ran back in disappointment. His mother Gaodi ran faster than a rabbit, and disappeared in the blink of an eye!

At this time, there were still six or seven thousand Qing troops surrounded by Baodugu, and there were also a large number of middle and senior officers. These Liao soldiers were not as "unconventional" as the Qing army, which was born in the Shun army or the Ming army. They were always more stubborn and looked down on the army within the pass, and it was even more difficult to surrender to them - especially when the Qing court liked to reuse the "old people of Liaodong".

After surrounding the Qing army, Mo Ming thought about it and transferred Ding Mingwu's troops who were still on the way to Yizhou. He asked him to take turns to fight with Zhai Congyan, Dong Xueli and others to launch a general attack on the Qing army while taking advantage of this rare opportunity to temper the troops. This Qing army is destined to be destroyed, and once they are eliminated, the more than 1,000 people who crossed the river of Gaodi's troops will almost be considered to be destroyed. Gaodi only had less than 1,000 cavalry left, and there were 5,000 weak soldiers left in Hexi, and almost lost all his foundation. After the news came out, the other Qing army generals should take it as a warning: that is, don't be the first to provoke the yellow-clad thief!

After successfully defeating the Qing army, Mo Ming began to send scouts to contact more than 7,000 people from Li Wenchang's troops who had already moved south from Jining Prefecture, and asked them to come to Baodugu together, then join forces to Yizhou, and finally arrive at Haizhou by the Yellow Sea to obtain key supplies from the naval ships anchored on the sea.

While waiting for Li Wen's army to arrive, Mo Dashuai finally considered the funeral arrangements for the Far East. He wrote all his arrangements in a letter and would be handed over to Shao Shude. He and Shao Shude have been friends for many years, and they are both from the same interest group. It would be better to hand over some things to him in private.

The first is the leader of the Far East Army after he left. Here he recommended Mao Desheng and asked Shao Shude to write a letter back to the local area and let the Executive Committee extend Mao Desheng's term. Mao Desheng is the company commander of the 104th Company and does not have much contact with the forwarding team system. It would be no big problem to extend the term appropriately by a few years. Anyway, the 104th Company will also be rotated back to the local area next year. Mao Desheng, who has lost his direct troops, will not be able to play too many tricks - and there is no need for him to play any tricks.

In recent battles, Mo Ming always asked Mao Desheng to serve as the commander-in-chief of the front enemy to command specific battles, so Mao Desheng is also an experienced general. In the future, there will be no military and political strongman like Marshal Mo who will take everything in the Far East. Shao Shude does not know about military and political affairs, but has a good experience, has a great face, and can manage it, so it is no problem to preside over the overall work; while Wei Boqiu, deputy commander of the military police, can be responsible for economic and diplomatic work, and this man is also versatile - maybe he is a little smarter, but it does not hinder the overall situation. Letting him preside over economic work should make the Heishui area collapsed by Marshal Mo and the finance department take a breath.

In this way, Shao Shude from Far East was in charge of the overall work, Mao Desheng and Wei Boqiu were the deputy, responsible for both military and economic aspects respectively. This political structure should have been quite stable for a period of time.

Before leaving, Mo Dashuai also left the last gift for perhaps the most exciting peak career in his life: using 700,000 taels of silver and a large amount of materials plundered from Jiningzhou and other places as a guarantee, select capable people from the entire army (stand upright team, servitude army and surrendered soldiers) to form the fourth team of the forward team. The preliminary preparations for this team have actually been launched, and hundreds of Japanese samurai and savage Jurchen tribes have been recruited.

After the fourth team of the Stand Up Team is formed, the total strength of the Stand Up Team system will reach 9,500 people, which is very beneficial to stabilizing the territory occupied by the Black Water Development Team in Shandong. As for the additional maintenance costs of more than 150,000 yuan a year, what does it have to do with him? Anyway, he will be patted and left immediately.

He believed that Shao Shude would form the fourth team of the forward team. Because he learned from some recent letters from Yantai that Shao Shude was sending people to repair and renovate the walls of Ninghaizhou and Weihaiwei. In addition, Dengzhou City had been renovated long ago, and a certain number of cannons were placed.

It is said that at Wei Boqiu's suggestion, Shao Shude would hand over these cities to some servants to guard. For example, Dengzhou City was originally planned to hand over to Chen Zhilong. Of course, now this matter is bad. Chen Zhilong has been defeated. Mo Ming is planning to recommend changing his flood land to Ninghaizhou City. As for Dengzhou City, Mo Ming is willing to hand over to Dong Xueli. This guy is afraid that he can no longer turn back. Moreover, the troops are also strong in combat, so it is more reassuring to hand over Dengzhou City to him. Finally, there is the relatively old Weihai Abraham City. Mo Ming thought about it and decided to suggest Shao Shude hand over the city to Xie Qian to guard. This man is incompatible with the Qing Dynasty and has no doubts of loyalty. If the East Coast supports some weapons and armor for them and sends officers to rectify his troops, he should be able to defend the small Linhai City of Weihai Guard.

The above people are all miscellaneous troops compiled by this expedition. These people have recently been sent over and have good capital. If they are sent rashly to the Heishui area or other bitter and cold places, it will inevitably make people have some bad views. Therefore, it is more reliable to place them on the spot in Dengzhou. Anyway, those guarding the city are not the troops in the East Coast system. They are all servants, and they don’t feel sorry for their death.

Moreover, after communicating with Shao Shude, Mo Ming found out that he seemed to be preparing to hand over Dengzhou to some servant generals to operate - of course, the early policies, instructions, and planning must be done by the East Coast people. For example, in the past month, Shao Shude has ordered the protection of the property of the few remaining landlords in Dengzhou and Laizhou prefectures, and at the same time distributed a large number of borderless land to some Ming refugees who came from war-torn places such as Qingzhou and even Jinan, so that they could level the wasteland, dig ditches, and prepare to start sowing after the spring of the next year.

As for those remaining small number of landlords, Shao Shude also strongly demanded that they reduce rent and interest rates, reduce the burden on farmers, and pay taxes on time, and do not have any tax evasion. With such measures, with the news of Marshal Mo's victory in Jinan Prefecture, the situation in Dengzhou Prefecture changed drastically, and there was a hint of order.

Of course, Shao Shude had some confidence in his courage to do this. First of all, since last autumn, the people of the East Coast sent a large number of soldiers and soldiers to the four Qingji Prefectures of Denglai to harvest the grain from the land. In addition to distributing some food for local poor people, the remaining grain and many livestock were basically transported to Yantai. With this grain, Dengzhou could feed a lot of the population and organize refugees to replant the abandoned land.

Secondly, with the improvement of the number and quality of the East Coast army, Shao Shude was actually not afraid of the Qing army dragging hundreds or thousands of kilometers of supply lines to attack Dengzhou. What a joke, in the East Coast Four Shandong, where the food is now cut off by the East Coast people, how could the food of more than 100,000 troops be so easy to raise? If you transfer thousands of miles away from other places, I'm sorry, if the East Coast people who hold the sea control power organize a "Incheon landing", then the more than 100,000 troops in front will be waxed.

On January 20, Li Wenchang led some vanguards to Baodugu. At this time, the Qing army on the mountain had been eroded by repeated siege. At this time, General Mo no longer allowed his subordinates to continue to sharpen the troops. He ordered the entire army to launch a final attack on the remaining 4,000 Qing troops in Baodugu. According to his words, it was - to rush to Baodugu and eliminate the troops!

That night, more than 4,000 Qing troops were killed and injured in Baodugu, and the rest surrendered. The main force of the ace army of Gaodi's troops had been destroyed. On January 22, Mo Ming, who was the follow-up army of Li Wen's army, led his army to Yizhou and occupied the place without bloodshed on January 26. On the 27th, the entire army continued to move south and finally arrived at the coast near Ganyu on February 2, then began to load and unload supplies and prepare for the next combat operation. Mao Desheng also began to take over the command temporarily. Mo Ming boarded one of the ships and prepared to return to Yantai and return to the local area with his family (Lola and two children). At this point, this man who once rose like a comet in Shandong and repeatedly drew the face of the Qing court may leave this land forever.
