Dongjiang Town, which is lonely in Liaodong, is not at this time: Huanglong cannot suppress Mao Wenlong's old subordinates in Dongjiang Town, and the internal strife in Dongjiang Town, which began with Chen Jisheng's murder, is intensifying.

It will be a matter of time before the old people of Dongjiang launched a large-scale riot under the combined effect of internal and external factors. All three elders held such a reason.

The difficulty is: now their one-way transparency no longer exists, and Kong Youde's next action has become confusing.

The most urgent task is to speculate on the next move of the hole and make corresponding preparations.

Zhu Mingxia leaned over the map, and the color pencils in her hand kept slashing on the glass plate. Lu Wenyuan and Chen Sigen looked at him nervously. As the military chief, they had the responsibility to judge the enemy's specific trends in the next step.

"I think there will be no big difference in Kong Youde's movements." Zhu Mingxia said after studying the map for a long time.

He pointed to the large-scale map on the table, cleared his throat and said:

"First of all, we all agree: Kong Youde's rebellion is the product of the collision of harsh weather and irreconcilable contradictions - this is a necessity, at most, the time and place are different.

"Secondly, we need to know why Kong Youde attacked Dengzhou. This is very important and directly affects our next actions. Kong knows that it is different from other Ming bureaucrats. Sun Yuanhua's attitude towards the old people in Dongjiang was the most friendly. Whether Kong was paralyzing the other party, rapidly expanding the results of the war, or really having the expectation of being recruited, Sun Yuanhua was the best choice. If he led his team to Dengzhou, there would be a hope of being recruited, which is the first point. Second point, Dengzhou has his colleagues, old subordinates, and a large number of Liaodong soldiers. These Liaodong soldiers also faced the same problems as Kong Youde's subordinates and had the same dissatisfaction. If he wanted to rebel, he could only find him in Dengzhou.

To be able to be reliable and good at fighting allies. The third point is that as a general with long-term combat experience, once he raises the flag of rebellion, he will definitely need a stronghold with sufficient food and weapons and easy advancement and retreat. Looking at several surrounding cities, Dengzhou is the most suitable: Dengzhou is the main gathering place for old people from Dongjiang such as Kong Youde, and the islands scattered in the Bohai Bay are mostly old subordinates of the Dongjiang, which can easily echo each other. Although rebellion was not planned by him, once a mutiny, he must return to his own people as soon as possible to use the former old subordinates of Dongjiang to quickly strengthen his strength. Kong Youde has no choice - if he is satisfied with running around, his strength will be exhausted if he is active in Shandong for too long.

"In the end, his best friend Geng Zhongming and others were in Dengzhou City. As long as the inside and outside cooperated, Dengzhou was the easiest to win. It is precisely because of these three points that as long as Kong raised the flag of rebellion, Dengzhou was its best choice - and an inevitable choice."

"It makes sense. Sooner or later, Kong Youde will go back to Dengzhou."

"As long as Kong Youde's troops are not far from Shandong, they will be his best choice after the mutiny." Zhu Mingxia was very confident, "Based on this prediction, our countermeasures will be simple."

Zhu Mingxia suggested that all the reconnaissance cavalry and local natives should be sent to the reconnaissance hole to make detailed hikes, except for the cavalry to conduct long-range tracking and search. The original route to Liaodong to reinforce the Daling River should not be left behind, so as to prevent them from going to the front line.

The Qingyishui cavalry of the Kong tribe has a distinct appearance and is difficult to hide for a long time, and it is not afraid of being mistaken by the scouts. For the local natives, they sent people to send people to spread the facts of the villages near Dengzhou. In a few days, these things will be processed by the indigenous people. They are introduced to the ears of the Liaodong soldiers, and also in Lord Sun's mansion.

The speed of word-of-mouth transmission is generally relatively slow. Under normal circumstances, the news of Wuqiao, Hebei will be transmitted to Dengzhou for a long time. Now they are accelerating the speed of spreading.

"Finally, if Kong Youde really had to run to the Daling River front or other factors could not go to Dengzhou, we had to instigate the Liao soldiers in Dengzhou. This is another topic."

"Haha, little Zhu Yi summarized it well!" Chen Sigen interrupted: "I'll write the report to the Senate!"

"According to the organizational principle, everything has to be discussed and decided by the three of us. Besides, now is not the time to write a report," said Zhu Mingxia.

Chen Sigen considered it and said, "Ji said it very reasonably. But I want to remind you one thing:Ji just said that we should pay attention to this uncertainty. Now we still cannot predict Kong Youde's actions accurately. If we just passively monitor him, it will not work. We must actively interfere and let him act according to our wishes - so that there is necessary certainty."

Zhu Mingxia said: "Let us go directly to incite his subordinates?"

"We don't have the ability to incite him now." Chen Sigen smiled and said, "I forgot what Lu Wenyuan said before: 'Only leading troops to cut off the canal is rebellion'. We are not sure if he can do it, but I am sure that we can do it for him! If he can't afford it, he will have to do it even if he doesn't want to do it!"

"Can this work?"

"Ha, what's wrong with it? Our special investigation team does this kind of killing and robbing, just like killing chickens. These days, the young men under my command are so idle that they are afraid of being in trouble. At most, we can send some people to cooperate, and it will be absolutely foolproof." Chen Sigen said.

"The soldiers under Kong Youde all have Liaodong accents..." Lu Wenyuan still had some questions.

"Haha, that doesn't matter. Our Mandarin is actually quite similar to the Liaodong Army. Even if it doesn't look like it, at worst, no one can pay attention to any flaws when they really kill. Besides, even if there are flaws, can there be other ways besides Kong Youde taking the blame?" Chen Sigen said.

"Old Chen is right, but whoever goes there still needs to choose. Wen Yuan, didn't you even get the military uniform number barrier before? You found it. Let's give him a mountain of evidence. But what should I do? We have to discuss it now."

"I did get some of the Ming army's Kan, but not much." Lu Wenyuan tried to build some of the Ming army's Kan from Dengzhou through Huang Ande's relationship, all kinds of battalions, and some were still old. However, Chen Sigen thought this was better - it seemed real.

"When you act, tear off the camp mark on the roster, which is more realistic." Lu Wenyuan said, "When you start to move, you will wear some worn robes outside, and it will look even more like it."

Everyone had no objection to Zhu Mingxia's judgment and immediately took action. In addition to sending all the cavalry on standby, they also selected some fine-grained ones from the refugees who came to the road to inquire about the news.

Lu Wenyuan called Huang Ande and asked him to take a few soldiers from Shandong to Dengzhou immediately to spread various news about Kong Youde to his relatives and friends in Dengzhou City.

At the same time, Lu Wenyuan was also a intelligence officer under Lu Wenyuan who was specifically contacted with the local churches of the East Three Prefectures, who spread the news through the church relations.

Kong Youde led his troops out of Wuqiao County, heading north along the direction of the Beijing-Shanghai Railway, which was not yet in this time and space, and entering Dongguang County. Dongguang is on the bank of the South Canal River. Born by the canal, business is quite prosperous.

Kong Youde chose to go to Dongguang, with the idea of ​​making a fuck here - Dongguang is not a must for him to support Daling River in the north. With his men's quick action ability, it is no problem to go here to circle around and get some benefits for himself and his subordinates.

Before arriving at Wuqiao, the morale of his men and horses had been extremely low, and there were complaints all the way, and an undercurrent had already surged among the soldiers and officers. Kong Youde was the old general. If he hadn't made a quick decision that night, he slaughtered a village in Wuqiao and got a lot of food and property to calm his subordinates' hearts, the best result would be that the people collapsed along the way, and half of them walked to Shanhaiguan; the worst thing was that this group of brothers who had been alive and died would have just started to do everything in Wuqiao County.

Kong Youde was unwilling to rebel and cause chaos: he joined the army as a young man, climbed out of the dead, and finally reached the third-rank general, not wanting to abandon his future he had worked hard at will. But over the years, he has been in Dongjiang or Dengzhou, and his future is becoming increasingly slim - although Sun Yuanhua values ​​him very much, the entire Ming Dynasty looks terminally ill - and there is no hope.

As for Dongjiang itself, since Mao Shuai was suddenly beheaded, to Deputy General Chen was killed in an internal strife, and then Huanglong landed on the island, and the various troops were in trouble, Dongjiang killed each other in an all-round way, and the whole situation became worse day by day.

If they were under Mao Wenlong, they could at least go out to the Tartars to demonstrate in an armed manner on the ground and fight the Tartars by chance. Now they are increasingly depressed. The order to go to Daling River to reinforce Zhang Chun is delivered, from officers to soldiers, they are filled with fear of the enemy.

From top to bottom, there was probably no one who didn't know what the result of Zhang Chun in Daling River. He knew that Zhang Chun would definitely die, but there were many soldiers who were going to die - and he was also very likely to be one of them.

When he thought of this, he felt it was hard to let go.

After Kong Youde led his troops to Dongguang, he temporarily settled in a village not far from the canal. There were many villages near the South Canal "eat the river", and some wealthy families who secretly made money. He released his subordinates and slaughtered another village and plundered a large amount of money. The generals and officers made a small fortune, and the soldiers also had enough food and drink, and they lost some money, and their morale was higher than before.

But something even more troublesome came, and the officers and soldiers were a little happy after they had the sweet taste. Some even secretly encouraged the officers to simply become bandits and make a fortune on this wealthy ground.

Kong Youde sneered at this: Once the army becomes a bandit, its combat effectiveness will soon be completely disintegrated. At that time, he will be an incompetent mountain king and will sooner or later be destroyed by the hands of officers and soldiers and regiments.
