There are quite a few remaining Qing soldiers in the De Palace, and roughly estimates are tens of thousands of people.

They occupied the royal palace, thinking of dragging reinforcements to arrive, and joining forces inside and outside to annihilate the Northern Expedition Army in the city and turn defeat into victory.

However, Li Haoxian immediately sent a few soldiers to delay the time, but he did not rush to attack, but first controlled the important places in Jinan. In this way, the Qing soldiers trapped in the De Palace were completely in a turtle. Fortunately, they were being repaired and expanded here, and they were preparing to build the Qi Palace for the great hero of the anti-Ming Dynasty, Babuhai, so there were many stones inside, so it was quite convenient to guard it.

Li Haoxian pinched his palm and chuckled, and the fierce look in his eyes was not hidden. He said to his subordinates around him: "I followed Zhao Yingyuan to raise troops to fight against the Qing Dynasty in Qingzhou, but I was disbanded by the old thief Wang Aoyong and wiped out the entire army, and then fled to Jiangnan. Today I will kill this thief and avenge my brothers."

"General, they are trapped in the royal palace, so just burn it."

Li Haoxian looked around and saw that there were huge trees in the De Palace, which were transported from all over the place to build the De Palace. The winter in the north was extremely dry, and if arson was set at 80% successful, the huge De Palace would be destroyed. Since Jinan was captured, all the things in the city were classified as his own by Li Haoxian, and he was a little reluctant to burn it. Moreover, this was not Qingliu Pass, but this was in Jinan. Once a fire broke out, it would inevitably affect innocent people.

Li Haoxian hesitated for a while and decided not to set fire first and let his subordinates surround Prince De's mansion. The Qing soldiers inside did not dare to attack the city, and they were very satisfied.

In the prison not far away, there were two people in a cell, one white-haired and the other strong and burly. Both of them were hung in the air, with their toes on the ground, and the flesh and blood on their wrists had been worn open, dyeing the hemp rope wet and red.

Hearing the shocking noise outside, the middle-aged man suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Why is my elder brother coming into the city and saving me? Old man Bai, listen quickly, haha, I'll save my elder brother when he comes. Then I'll let him take you with me."

The man named Bai was already dying, but he still forced himself to attack him and said, "Lei Dong, your elder brother is just a domineering mountain. Our Jinan city is high and deep, and it is one of the few big cities in the world. How could he fight in? It's really a delusion."

Although the old man was tortured and covered in bruises, he still looked proud when talking about Jinan, and said angrily: "Old thing, you deserve to be hanged here."

Liu Yong and his men rushed to the prison. When they were dominating the mountain, several brothers were arrested and imprisoned in the Jinan prison, waiting to report to the Qing court and beheaded. The prison inside the prison was dark and damp, rotten and smelly. The prison guard had already run away without a trace. Liu Yong kicked open a wooden door and shouted: "I am Liu Yong of Fulaishan, where is my brother?"

When Lei Dong heard this, his face was filled with joy and shouted, "Brother, I'm here."

Liu Heiqi took the lead and opened the way for Liu Yong to the cell. He raised his knife to split the door and shone it with a torch. He said happily: "Isn't this my brother Lei Dong." After that, he cut off the rope with a knife, held him in his arms, and shouted: "Brother, it's Lei Dong."

Liu Yong looked down and saw that it was him. He hurriedly asked, "Where are the others?"

"I'm dead, those short-lived people were injured when they were caught and were not caught." Lei Dong said casually, but anyone could hear the slap and hatred in his tone.

Liu Yong was not a person who was sad and sad, and his voice was low: "Heizi, you carry Lei Dong on your back, let's go out to take revenge."

Lei Dong pointed to the hanging old man Bai and said, "Save him too. If his family hadn't secretly bribed the prison guards, I would have died long ago."

Liu Yong held the knife in his hand, pointed the tip of the knife down, and said, "Save my brother, it's like saving me, my father-in-law will be bowed by me." After saying that, he also cut off the rope above his head, and the old man Bai's eyes lit up and said, "Embroidered Chun Dao!"

"The boss has good eyesight. This sword and goose feather knife style is stretched, the blade body is neat and powerful, the blade edge is sharp, and the shape is beautiful. I used to cut a clear dog's head with one knife. It's nothing else, it's the best embroidered spring sword."

The old man shook his head and said, "Your texture is average, at most it is passed down from thousands of households. And it has been disrepair and is not properly maintained. It may be worse than the average Japanese sword."

Liu Yong was furious: "Take this old man here and let's go." He didn't remember that he was thanking others for helping him just now.

Old Man Bai suddenly said in a low voice: "The first stop to the north of Jinling is Yiluanluan Yuqixia Mountain."

Liu Yong's face twitched a few times, and his eyes slowly narrowed: "Are you a spy from the Jinyiwei?"

Old Man Bai didn't expect him to say it directly, and couldn't help but say angrily: "At this time, you should pretend not to know and then secretly recognize me. Didn't your father teach you?"

Liu Yong smiled miserably: "Old man Bai, wait for you to go out and take a look. There is no Jinyiwei in the world."

The commander of the Jinyiwei in the court was Zhao Yuanhua, but he had no relationship with the Jinyiwei in the past. They were more responsible for the defense of the palace and the development of firearms. The former Jinyiwei secret spies, because of the fall of the capital, all the commanders had no news, and no one knew the identity of the spies anymore.

Old Man Bai's name is Bai Junyan. He is a well-known old man in Jinan. He has a high reputation and reputation, but he does not know his hidden identity. When the Jinyiwei was called the Imperial Guard Department, a large number of Jinyiwei were ordered to go to the place or lurk in the palace of civil and military ministers as spies. They acted as the most ordinary civilians or even slaves, and they dressed for a lifetime. As long as they did not receive the order to recall, they would never put on the flying fish robe again in their entire lives, and no one would know their true identity until they died.

After so many years, those people have completely integrated into the local area and become figures among the three religions and the following generations have been passed down.

Wang Aoyong also didn't know Bai Junyan's true identity and always wanted him to surrender to the Qing Dynasty to make the scholars return.

"Hehe, dynasties change, but so, no matter how strong the power is, it can be destroyed. It is human nature. Forget it, you and I are the same kind of people, so I will lend you a convenience to escape from this rotten prison cell." He still thinks that Liu Yong and others are here to rob the prison. After all, when he was imprisoned, it was the time when the Qing Dynasty was invincible to sweep the world.

Of course, Liu Yong was so happy to pull this old colleague, he personally helped him up and walked out of the cell.

The dark life of the year made the two of them feel a little uncomfortable with the bright sunshine outside. Old man Bai squinted his eyes and slowly looked at the streets of Jinan. He saw that the soldiers walking back and forth on the road were all soldiers in the military uniforms of Ming Dynasty, arresting people everywhere.

"Mr. King's stability in the Central Plains, can you see him in your dream?" Old Man Bai murmured.

"Haha, I forgot to tell you that our brothers have defected to the Northern Expedition Army and have just captured Jinan."

The sun thorns on Bai Junyan's eyelids. He hadn't seen the light for a long time and tears were spreading across his cheeks. Tumorous tears rolled down. Liu Yong thought he was excited to cry when he saw this. He sighed in his heart that the older generation of Jinyiwei really cared about his family and country, so he said, "Old man, I'll send you home. You have to set up a few tables. Our brothers will lend you a treasure land to celebrate the reunion."

"Yes, walk along Qianmen Street, pass by Prince De's Mansion and then turn around."

Others were escorting the captured Qing soldiers, or traitors' families, but this group of people looked extremely conspicuous with two people on their backs.

Li Haoxian happened to see him in front of the mansion, called Liu Yong and asked, "Our Northern Expedition Army has no precedent for preferential treatment of prisoners. What are you doing?"

Liu Yong explained with a smile that Li Haoxian was originally a person like Hu Baoyi who was calling the wind and rain in Dengzhou. He admired his behavior from the bottom of his heart, and said, "I'm hungry too. I'm going to have a meal for you. I won't mind it, right?"

"Haha, the general is glad, we are not too happy."

The Bai family closed the door tightly, just like ordinary people, looking nervously at everything outside. Suddenly, a knock on the door came, and the door of the Bai family looked out through the crack of the door. There were a group of big-headed soldiers. He was so scared that he opened the door quickly, but saw his master being carried back.

The little gate hurriedly picked up the old man Bao and shouted to the room: "The master is back!"

Li Haoxian looked around and found that although the Bai Mansion was not very big, he could tell at a glance that it was a wealthy family. The courtyard was elegant and unique. This was because Old Man Bai was in jail for a long time. After the family was in charge, the generals had already lost their money.

The Bai family came out of the inner courtyard happily and saw a group of generals and soldiers standing there in a daze.

Bai Junyan met his family again, and couldn't help but feel excited and said, "My son, just look at something, hurry up and prepare a table of wine and food to entertain these people, and then find a doctor for your father."

Li Haoxian waved his hand and said, "You are trauma, and the military doctor in my camp is the best." He turned around and said to his personal soldiers, "Go and invite a young doctor."

Bai Junyan was very interested in the Ming army who fought back to Jinan. She sat aside and kept asking questions. Li Haoxian was also happy to talk to the people in his hometown about the general trend of the world.

When the military doctor arrived, he was indeed a young doctor. He was not tall and slightly dark-skinned boy. After seeing Li Haoxian, he clasped his fists and said, "General, who is he treating me?"

Lee Haoxian pointed to Lei Dong and Bai Junyan beside him and said, "These two."

The little military doctor was skillful in his skills and applied medicine to bandage the dead meat. He quickly got it done. After the salute, he turned around and left the yard. The Bai family chased him and collected some money. The little black boy blushed and didn't know how to refuse, but he refused to accept it.

Li Haoxian smiled and said, "This is a small military doctor in our Northern Expedition Army. Every time he treats, you don't have to be polite."

The little military doctor had the chance to leave. He was an ordinary peasant family. Because his father was injured when he was guarding Yangzhou in Shuiziying, he gave him a chance to enter the medical museum. Remembering the instructions on the wall of the medical museum, he was simple and diligent at a young age. Now such a little military doctor is spread throughout the Northern Expedition Army.

Bai Junyan felt a chill on his wrist. He knew that it was the effect of the medicine. He couldn't help but exclaim: "At a young age, he has such a good technique. I don't know which famous doctor trained him."

Li Haoxian smiled and said, "This is the trick of our great general. We set up a medical museum in the big city, recruit young apprentices, and dispatch them to various battalions. Don't underestimate them. Accumulating military merits can improve the grade. One day, the official position may not be low. The soldiers in our battalion, because of these little military doctors, everyone is brave enough to kill the enemy, and the number of wounded soldiers who survive has increased dozens of times compared to before."

Bai Junyan said suspiciously: "I heard on the road that the general is the general who is the general in the Huo camp?"

Lee Haoxian looked strange and frowned and asked, "Don't you know our Grand Marshal, Duke Yue?"

Bai Junyan laughed and said optimistically and openly: "When I was imprisoned, the Qing Dynasty had just entered the pass, and I was preparing to write a book to scold Li Zicheng, and the entire territory of Shandong was occupied by the braided soldiers. How could the prison guards in the prison tell me about the past two years?"

"No wonder, my commander is the eldest son of Duke Yue, Hou Xuanyan of Jiading Hou Dongzeng. Lord Hou raised the flag to fight against the Qing Dynasty in Jiading, and died with the city. The only son of a loyal and martyr was left. The commander, with his own strength, first took Suzhou as the foundation, and then successively took Hangzhou, Changzhou, and Jinling, killed Duoduo in Yangzhou, forcing Hong Chengchou to death in Zhenjiang, suppress Jiangsu and Zhejiang, recover Nanjing, and welcomed the former King of Tang as emperor. The emperor in the court is the son of the former emperor, with the reign of the year Jingyou." Li Haoxian said these spirits, and saw the old man's reverent expression, he was happier than hearing others compliment him.

"What a white jade pillar that holds the sky, and builds a purple gold beam in the sea!" Bai Junyan exclaimed, and Li Haoxian became even more excited and continued to tell.

Bai Junyan was so excited when he heard his words. Until he talked about regaining Jinan, Li Haoxian sighed and said, "The Dewang Mansion is easy to defend but difficult to attack. I wanted to follow the example of the general and use fire attack, but I may hurt the innocent."

When Bai Junyan heard this, he used fire attack? The De Palace occupied almost half of the area of ​​Jinan City. If it were fire attack, how could it be controlled? It would not burn all Jinan. He quickly shook his head and said, "No, you must not use fire."

Li Haoxian sighed and said, "If you don't get rid of those remnants, you're just afraid that the Mongolian soldiers will return."

Bai Junyan held his beard and his eyes flashed, and he said, "If you want to get rid of them, it's easy to get rid of them, so how can you use fire attack?"

"Oh? What are your tricks? Tell me quickly." The De Prince's Mansion is now a big deal in Li Haoxian's heart. When he heard the old man's words, he was immediately excited.

Bai Junyan approached and whispered: "Ten thousand people are trapped in the palace, and they are bound to eat, drink, defecate and urinate. People can not eat, but they cannot drink water. The spring water in Jinan is everywhere, and the Zhuying Spring in the palace of Prince De comes from Zhuying Lake. You only need to poison the spring water, and keep it. Tens of thousands of people inside die without a place to bury them."

Li Haoxian smiled and said, "You scholars are still cruel. Why didn't I think of such a vicious plan!"

Bai Junyan smiled awkwardly and said to himself: If you hadn't wanted to burn Jinan City, I wouldn't have thought of such a vicious plan, and I would have been forced to do so.
