 "Okay, okay! I have long heard that there are many loyal and righteous people in Shandong and Shanxi! Tao Qing, Ma Qing, you two have done a great job!"

Zhu Hengjia looked at Jinyiwei commander Tao Cheng and fellow commander Ma Jixiang with a smile, his eyes almost narrowed to a slit.

"Your Majesty is in a very good mood today," Ma Huanxi, the eunuch and eunuch who was serving at the side, secretly said. This Eunuch Ma has been serving the Emperor since he was a child and understands the Emperor's thoughts best. Well, the Emperor's eyes narrowed more and more,

The mood will be better; if your eyes are widened and your brows are furrowed, it means you are angry; if your face seems to be smiling but not smiling, but your right fist is clenched, then it is terrible, the emperor is going to kill someone!

Zhu Hengjia was indeed in a good mood. Not long ago, he sent Jin Yiwei to contact the volunteers in the north to help the Northern Expedition. Tao Cheng and Ma Jixiang lived up to their mission and contacted more than a dozen rebel armies, large and small, two of which were quite powerful. Therefore,

I was very satisfied with them and gave them a few words of praise.

"I don't dare to take credit, it's all because of your Majesty's wisdom." Tao and Ma were very humble.

"Come here, give Tao Qing and Ma Qing a horse each. We will go to the stables to pick them up later." Emperor Guangwu always rewards those who have merit.

"I wait to thank the Lord for his kindness."

Ma Jixiang raised his buttocks, thanked the reward first, and said, "Your Majesty, Yu Qi's envoy Yu Jiu and Ren Liang's envoy Guo Yan are waiting at the door. Do you want to summon them?"

Yu Qi was active in Dengzhou, Shandong, while Ren Liang was based in Jiaocheng, Shanxi. The two of them, one a third-generation rich man and a second-generation official, and the other a mud-legged man, came together for a common ideal: to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty.
As an emperor, Zhu Hengjia had no time to meet ordinary rebels. However, these two rebel armies were quite powerful, so he thought about it and said, "Let's announce them to the account."

??

Yu Qi is not an ordinary person! His maternal grandfather, Qi Jiguang, was a famous general; his grandfather, Yu Jinbiao, was a wealthy businessman in Qixia and the owner of a large gold mine; his father, Yu Keqing, was a general of the Ming Dynasty who died on the battlefield in the battle with Hou Jin. A standard third generation of rich people.

Join the second generation!

This person has been fond of martial arts since he was a child. He passed the martial arts examination in the third year of Chongzhen, which is really impressive.

After the Qing army entered the pass, Yu Qi, a survivor of the Ming Dynasty, was indignant. Together with his brothers Yu Liu and Yu Jiu, they made friends in the green forest and prepared for an uprising.

There are many legends about him. Pu Songling has two articles in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio": "Wild Dog" and "Gongsun Jiuniang", which mention the Yu Qi Uprising.

He first robbed the rich and gave to the poor, looking for whoever had the money. He would visit the house alone, and if the other party obediently handed over all the money and food, he would take half of it and leave half to the other party. On the contrary, if he was being mean, he would rob them all. Over time,

, his reputation is getting bigger and bigger, and more and more people are defecting to him.

In the fifth year of Shunzhi, Yu Daxia raised the banner of resistance against the Qing Dynasty in the Jagged Mountain (Yashan) in Qixia, Shandong Province. This was the first anti-Qing uprising in the Jiaodong area. He led a thousand people to attack Ninghai Prefecture and displayed the head of the prefect Liu Wenqi to the public ("

"Dengzhou Prefecture Annals": In the fifth year, the people of Qixia gathered deserters in the seventh year, took up residence in the Jagged Mountain, and carried out plundering. In the seventh year, they led the crowd to attack Ninghai, and the governor of the state, Liu Wenqi, died).

At that time, Zhu Hengjia was making a fuss, and Jin Shenghuan, Li Chengdong, Jiang Xiang and others raised the flag of righteousness. The Qing government had no time to take care of it, so it ordered Zhang Shangxian, the prefect of Dengzhou, to come forward and recruit Yu Qi to be the commander-in-chief of Qixia.

After becoming the general manager, it was more convenient for Yu Daxia to gather connections and expand his power. He made friends with people who were in the society, such as Hao Jin from Qixia, Song Fan from Laiyang, the Song Wan brothers, Song Jicheng and his son, Jimo Huang Pei, etc., and he was ready to make a move.

Hearing that Emperor Guangwu had already invaded Shandong, he secretly sent his younger brother Yu Jiu to surrender.

??

Poor Ren Liang, a mud-legged person digging in the fields, never having enough to eat year after year.

In the sixth year of the Apocalypse, he really couldn't live anymore, so he fell grass in the Luliang Mountain area and started a rebellion against the Ming Dynasty. Later, the peasant army of northern Shaanxi invaded Shanxi. He and Wang Jinying, Guo Yan, Wang Quan, Bashanhu and other rebel leaders occupied the

The mountains northwest of Jiaocheng responded. Later, the Tatars came. As an old rebel who had rebelled during the Tianqi years, he was used to freedom and refused to surrender, so he raised his troops to rebel against the Qing Dynasty.

This person is extremely famous in history, not because of his great power, but because he persisted for a long time. Historically, it was not until the tenth year of Kangxi that he was suppressed by the Qing army. From the sixth year of Tianqi to the tenth year of Kangxi, he existed for forty-five years.

Years ago, it was the longest-lasting rebel army.

I heard that the Ming army has fought back again. Although I have rebelled against the Ming Dynasty before, after all, they are all Han people and they are not willing to keep their money to meet their ancestors.

Under the guidance of Jin Yiwei, Ren Liang ordered Guo Yan to go to the Ming army camp to surrender to Emperor Guangwu.

??

Emperor Guangwu summoned Yu Jiu and Guo Yan with a smile in Panlong's tent.

Although there was a smile on his face, there were densely armored soldiers inside and outside the tent, with swords and guns shining.

The imperial authority was so strict, coupled with the strength of the emperor's own troops, that even though Yu Jiu and Guo Yan were strong men, they were so frightened that they did not dare to raise their heads. As soon as they entered the tent, they knelt on the ground and shouted long live.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Putchi", Zhu Hengjia laughed and said to himself: These two bumpkins have no idea. They are shouting long live the mountain, not long live the three, and this kind of gift is generally not used.

However, the two of them were still satisfied with being so respectful to them, so they smiled kindly and said: "The two righteous men have come from afar to work hard, and they are lying flat. Let's sit down and have tea."

The guards brought chairs and served the royal tea, but they were muttering in their hearts that the only people who could sit and drink tea in front of His Majesty were either princes or dignitaries, or highly respected bachelors. What are the backgrounds of these two people?

In fact, this is just Emperor Guangwu's strategy. These rebels are different from his direct troops. They are far away and difficult to control. If you don't treat them better, how can you fool them into willingly working for you?

The emperors who founded the country since ancient times have a way of winning people's hearts, and Zhu Hengjia is also a master of this.

First of all, I asked them how they were doing, how were the rebel soldiers? Are they well fed? Wearing warm clothes? How to deal with the Tatar encirclement and suppression? Oh! The conditions are so difficult, but you are still determined, you are true loyal ministers! A few warm words

As soon as he said these words, Yu Jiu and Guo Yan were moved to tears. His Majesty the Emperor is such a good person! He has no airs at all and cares for us so much. My father and mother are not as close as His Majesty the Emperor!

Then, the officials were appointed. Yu Qi was appointed deputy general of Qixia, and Ren Liang was appointed deputy general of Jiaocheng. They were asked to report their official positions in each department after they returned. I will approve it in one case!

Finally, give a banquet. Invite two people to dinner, and explain the tasks while giving the banquet.

"Guo Qing, when you go back, tell Lieutenant General Ren and ask him to choose the opportunity to move in the Luliang Mountain area to cooperate with Wang Shi's Northern Expedition."

"Common people, no, I obey the order," Guo Yan bowed and said.

"Yu Qing, when you go back, tell your brother Yu Qi to temporarily lurk in the Qing army as General Qixia, and wait until the king's division approaches Dengzhou before he can raise his righteousness. I want him to be a leader of the Ming Dynasty in Shandong.

Chess piece".

"I obey the decree."

??

There are one hundred ways of heaven, no matter how good a person is, they can only master ninety-nine at most, and the one that escapes can never be controlled.

Zhu Hengjia asked Yu Qi to be Ming Dynasty's internal response in Dengzhou, and he chose the opportunity to act. He had a good idea, and Yu Qi also acted according to the order, but God did not follow people's wishes!

There is a Baoquan Mountain in Laiyang City, and there is a temple on the mountain. Temple fairs are held every year. This is the most lively time of the year in Laiyang. Spring is warm and flowers are blooming. People come out to see flowers, enjoy the scenery, worship Buddha, and pray for peace.

"Master, I want to go to the temple fair, why don't you go with me?" Yu Jiu's wife, Yishi, pestered Yu Jiu. This Yishi looks like a fairy, shy of the moon, and is a famous local beauty.
p>

The hero is sad about the beauty, and Yu Jiu happily agrees.

The two of them arrived at the temple fair, which was crowded with people, and there was everything to eat, drink, and play.

"Hey, who's little lady is this? She's so pretty." Yi Shi was walking around when a guy with a fleshy face suddenly appeared and spoke obscene words. She was the Laiyang bully Song Yibing, known as "Song Er"

"King of Hell".

"Where did the scoundrel come from? What kind of logistics! You didn't even ask me what kind of family my Dengzhou Yu family was, and you dared to molest my wife!"

Yu Jiu was furious. Not only did the old Yu family have a prominent family background, but they were also a wealthy man on the Green Forest Road in Shandong. How had he ever been so angry?

The second king of hell in Song Dynasty is also seeking death. He has never heard of the name of the old Yu family. "What a bullshit donkey family. The Ma family is in Laiyang. I, the Song family, have the final say. It is your blessing that we have fallen in love with your wife~

Oops!"

Before he finished speaking, Yu Jiu's fist arrived and punched out the blood lotus.

Both sides were powerful, and each had a group of subordinates, so they staged a full-scale martial arts show in Baoquan Mountain. In the end, the gangster Song Yibing failed to beat the green forest tycoon Yu Jiu, and was beaten until his nose was bruised, his face was swollen, and he didn't have a good piece of meat in his body.

After being carried home by his servants, Song Yi ordered his servants to investigate who the Yu family in Dengzhou was.

The slave reported: "Young master, the Yu family in Dengzhou is very powerful. Their ancestors were high-ranking officials in the Ming Dynasty and were well-known local tyrants. Yu Jiu's elder brother, Yu Qi, was also a rebel, and later he was severely punished.

He was recruited by the Qing Dynasty and is now the commander-in-chief of Qixia.

"Have you ever been a rebel? That's easy to handle! Quickly, arrange for a carriage to fly to Beijing and file a complaint."

Song Yibing laughed loudly. This "Song's Second Hell King" was not good at fighting, but he was good at punishing people. His old man was an official in the Ministry of War of the Qing Dynasty and was powerful.

Song Yibing went directly to Beijing to file a complaint. Instead of saying that he had been beaten for teasing women, he falsely accused the Yu brothers of wanting to rebel. "Yu Qi built the Golden Palace in Qixia, embroidered dragon robes, and prepared to become emperor."

The Qing court was at war with the Ming army, and was most afraid of rebellion in the rear. After hearing the false accusation, it sent troops to seal off the Yu family, regardless of whether it was true or false.

As a result, the famous Yu Seven Uprisings were advanced.

The old Yu family roared, and the three tremors shook when they climbed to the state. Hao Jin from Qixia, Song Fan, Song Wan, Song Jicheng from Laiyang, Huang Pei from Jimo, etc. all rebelled. Everyone recommended Yu Qi as the leader and gathered their troops at the Sawtooth Mountain in Qixia (

Asan).

Qing Denglai's commander boldly sent troops to suppress it, and the two sides faced off in the Jagged Mountain area.

"Hey! God doesn't follow people's wishes! I originally wanted this Yu Qi to be my secret move, but unexpectedly it turned out to be an open move." When the news came, Emperor Guangwu sighed.
