"The guard of Jinan Prefecture used to be our Hu Guanglu, but later, I heard that he was forcibly replaced by Niu Jinda from Chang'an. There has been no news about the county magistrate Li Wenli since the past few days. As for the internal response, the internal response...
"
The counselor who was questioned stretched out his sleeves, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and stammered, "The internal agents haven't opened the city gate until now. I'm afraid something has happened!"
"Snapped……"
Before the counselor could finish his words, he was slapped with a hunting sound! He was slapped to the ground without any defense at all, and with a loud sound, he spat out a mouthful of bloody spit on the ground.
"ah……"
Seeing this sudden scene, Li Zhen's cronies nearby couldn't help but exclaim, but soon, the exclamations were deliberately suppressed.
No one dared to come forward to comfort him, and no one dared to lift up the counselor who was lying on the ground. They only dared to look at the new head of the family in awe and fear, who was acting more erratically and violently than before.
"Waste! Waste!"
He slapped his counselor until he vomited blood, but Li Zhen didn't care about the eyes of the people around him, and still looked at the burning Jinan City ahead with his red eyes!
This is a real city melted by fire! The twisting and rising flames are so dazzling in the dark night! But behind the flames, the thick mountain-like city made him feel a deep sense of powerlessness from the bottom of his heart.
.
If just one city and one garrison can make him helpless, then Luoyang and Chang'an on the way west will crush them alive!
"What did you say before? Taking down the city of Jinan is like searching for something! Now! Why are everyone silent?" After a hiss, Li Zhen slowly withdrew his eyes from the fire and looked at the so-called people around him.
Counselor, think tank!
And these so-called wise men who usually call themselves Wolong Kongming were stared at by Li Zhen's blood-red eyes, and they immediately trembled. You looked at me secretly, I looked at you secretly, and then they all lowered their heads together. No one dared
Be the first to speak.
What did they say? What could they say at this time? They said they rebelled for the first time and had no experience. After fighting a few more battles and gaining experience, this kind of problem would not arise?
But a few days ago, when everyone saw that Qingzhou City was captured so easily, that was not what they said at that time!
At that time, when they saw that their family master had successfully captured the largest city in Shandong, they thought that the attack on the city was nothing more than that!
Some people even began to dream about the day when they could conquer Chang'an, be rewarded in the Golden Palace, and be named the founding prince.
At that time, they spoke lofty ideals and pointed out the world, thinking that the world was at their fingertips!
But who would have thought that such a dream only lasted for a few days! Just when they were preparing to pull out the nail in the center of Shandong City, Jinan City, reality gave them a slap in the face!
This slap was so powerful! It was no less powerful than the one Li Zhen slapped at the counselor just now!
They were so dizzy from being slapped that their eyes were filled with stars, and they still haven't reacted yet.
"Master, this Jinan city has high walls and deep walls. It is indeed difficult to break through the city by force!"
After experiencing the deathly silence at the scene, another older counselor of the Li family looked around, sighed softly, and cupped his hands
"In my opinion, an attack is worse than a siege! Nowadays, there is a shortage of food everywhere in Shandong. The food and grass in Jinan City will definitely not be too much. We only need to encircle it for a few days, and the city will definitely collapse without attack!"
"siege?"
As the new head of the family, Li Zhen obviously still has some respect for this elderly counselor. Seeing him come out to speak, the color in his eyes immediately faded away.
He thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Uncle Wen! I'm afraid it's too late to besiege the city! We don't have time to waste here! Now that the fire has started, we must guide it so as not to let it go out! Just
The time given to us is too little, too little!”
A simple sentence can tell the difference between Li Zhen and others!
Although his military ability in attacking cities and plundering strongholds was indeed a bit sparse, Li Zhen's control of the overall situation and his foresight of the future far exceeded everyone present.
I'm afraid the only one who thinks about this level at this time, apart from him, is Xiao Han who is far away in Ningcheng!
Nowadays, the so-called rebellion here in Shandong looks lively, but in fact it is not a rebellion at all, it can only be regarded as a peasant riot at best!
Under the instigation of Li Zhen in the early days, countless landless people, in order to have a piece of their own farmland, armed with crude weapons and purposelessly attacked the landlords and gentry who were "unkind for the sake of wealth" and seized their property and land.
However, as the designer of this incident, Li Zhen knew very well that although he could stir up a boundless war in the shortest time, if he did not intervene in time to command and guide, the war would soon be extinguished.
.
Because those refugees are not people with any lofty ideals.
They don't ask for meritorious service in the founding of the country, because this kind of thing is too far away from them!
Most people here want nothing more than a small fortune to make them happy! This has also been a common problem among the people of the Central Plains since ancient times!
When they have nothing, they will risk everything to survive! Even if they die, they will not hesitate!
But after they grabbed the treasure, grabbed the land, and had things of their own, they began to have concerns.
At this time, the timid and cautious character in their bones will turn them into hamsters again, who just want to hide the things they robbed and live peacefully.
However, they also don’t think about it. From the moment they put down their hoes and pick up their weapons, do they really have a chance to go back to the past?
"The head of the family is considering it!"
Just when Li Zhen was deep in thought, the counselor known as "Uncle Wen" smiled and said loudly, "But why does the head of the family need to personally lead people to guard here? As long as we encourage the refugees and let them watch over this city
, they will still be trapped and die in the city!"
"Oh?" Li Zhen's eyes lit up after hearing this, but he hesitated immediately, "But with so many of us, we can't attack the city. How can we surround Jinan City with just the refugees outside?"
"Hahaha……"
When Uncle Wen heard this, he smiled cheerfully and continued, "The head of the family is too worried. Even if we can't surround him, what does it matter? The number of soldiers and horses in Jinan City can only be counted as over ten thousand!"
But now, outside the city, the mountains and plains are full of refugees! Even if they forcefully break through the siege, what will happen? They will probably die faster if they leave the city!" "The guard of Jinan Prefecture turns out to be our Hu Guanglu
, but later, I heard that he was forcibly replaced by Niu Jinda from Chang'an. Since the past few days, there has been no news about the county magistrate Li Wenli. As for the internal response, the internal response..."
