"Mr. Qian, you should know that the people under my command are of varying quality and are not regular troops. If the forest is big, there will always be some bad people...Mr. Qian, don't worry, after I go back, I will strictly restrain my troops and no such thing will happen again!"

Qian Qiaogong looked at Yu Qi without comment.

Yu Qi immediately bowed and no longer mentioned military rations and rewards.

Qian Qiaogong really regrets it a little.

In his opinion, the civilian army can become its own people.

Unfortunately, the current situation is obviously taken for granted.

"Am I wrong?"

Huang Tuozi behind him was stunned and looked around, then he noticed that Qian Qiaogong was asking himself.

Huang Tuozi shook his head and said, "Sir, that's right."

Qian Qiaogong said sadly: "But I was still wrong after all. If Chen Zhiyuan was there, the situation would not be so passive."

"The adults are not wrong, but they are kind-hearted and treat every Han people as someone like the adults themselves." Huang Tuozi said a little, and he couldn't explain what he really wanted to say at once.

"It is true that Yu Qi fights against Qing Dynasty, but after all, he and his subordinates are bandits. It is impossible for him to obey the general's wishes like soldiers in a short period of time. At the same time, he tastes no constraints. Once the blood of innocent people is stuck on his hands, it is difficult to gather his mind again... it is difficult!"

Qian Qiaogong was a little surprised that Huang Tuozi could say this. He sighed softly: "I am too greedy. I want to restore Dengzhou Prefecture and find a springboard for the future Northern Expedition!"

Huang Tuozi said, "The subordinates should not speak nonsense. Whether it is the prince or General Chen, they have reminded their subordinates to obey all the orders of Lord Qian... What the subordinates want to say is that Yu Qi is not worthy of being an adult to take care of him."

"What does this mean?"

"If the civilian army of Yu Qi is located bordering the Yixing Dynasty, what the Lord planned may be able to achieve. After all, Yu Qi is also afraid of the encirclement and suppression of the official army, but Dengzhou Prefecture is alone. The Ming army is beyond the reach of this. For Yu Qi, the promise of the Lord is more like painting a cake to fill the hunger. Naturally, the words of the Lord will be disobeyed."

Huang Tuozi's words make sense, Qian Qiaogong sighed in his heart.

Although the Rebel Army was anti-Qing, its components were by no means good people.

On the contrary, the idle gangsters who usually say that they often slaughter dogs, but they can be righteous and violating justice.

Of course, if there is enough time, it may not be impossible to incorporate these people, but what you lack the most now is time.

Huang Tuozi looked at Qian Qiaogong carefully, "Is there a saying that my subordinates don't know whether they should say it?"

"That's it."

"Old man is naturally kind and righteous, and wants to give Yu Qi a way to survive, but the problem is that as far as Yu Qi is concerned, isn't he just silence with the adult? Let's not talk about whether Yu Qi will truly submit to you, but just talking about the prince, it may be difficult to make a choice at this time."

"Why?" Qian Qiaogong was a little surprised. "Having a place in Dengzhou will definitely be beneficial to the future Northern Expedition."

"Your Majesty is right, it is beneficial. But now neither the Yixing Dynasty nor the Northern Expedition Army are ready for the Northern Expedition. If you need to disrupt the prince's existing strategies just for this Dengzhou Prefecture and supply Dengzhou Prefecture from thousands of miles away, this is probably more loss than gain? Besides, the battle situation in Dengzhou Prefecture can be hidden for a while, but it cannot be hidden for a lifetime. Once the truth is leaked, the Qing army will rush in. By then, Dengzhou will be a piece of chicken rib, and it will be tasteless to eat, and it will be a pity to abandon it."

Qian Qiaogong was silent. He began to reflect on this simple truth, even Huang Tuozi knew, but he was confused by the authorities.

Seeing that Qian Qiaogong was not blamed, Huang Tuozi boldly said, "Besides, the Lord did this, actually put Lord Shen in a dangerous place. Just imagine that the fact of Dengzhou was leaked, and the Qing court knew that Lord Shen was in Cao's camp and his heart was in Han. Therefore, Lord Shen would be exposed, and Lord Shen was caught off guard, so he was afraid he had no room to fight back!"

Qian Qiaogong's face changed and he said sternly: "Why didn't you say it before?"

Huang Tuozi smiled bitterly and said, "When my subordinates went north, the prince had a strict order to let my subordinates listen to all Lord Shen and Lord Qian. Even if the two masters ordered my subordinates to really join the Qing Dynasty or face the prince, it would be no exception... Now that Lord Shen is not here, how dare I disobey my subordinates?"

Qian Qiaogong's face slowly calmed down, "It's true that I'm too proud of you."

Huang Tuozi hurriedly said, "No wonder, sir. Although it has been delayed for a few days, our army still has gained something. In the first battle before, our army actually defeated the seven divisions. Otherwise, Zhang Shangxian, the governor of Dengzhou, would not trust the emperor easily... Now the soldiers of the Gun Cavalry Battalion have become suspicious in private. As long as the master quickly changes his strategy and leads his army eastward again, it is still time."

"What do you mean... is to encircle this rebel army?"

"Yes." Huang Tuozi said solemnly, "The purpose of going north between Lord Shen and Lord Shen is to win the trust of the Qing court. What the prince wants is not just a place in Dengzhou, but also a people in Dengzhou. Only when the two masters can they stabilize their foundation in the Qing court can they achieve greater results."

"But this rebel army is... Han people after all."

"No. When they waved their swords at the innocent people, they were not rebels, but bandits!" Huang Tuozi shouted, "After the first battle, the Lord negotiated with Yu Qi, and his subordinates put some spies in the prisoners who were put back. According to reports, three days ago, in Wendeng City, Yu Qi's 100-man team slaughtered a village. More than 100 households in the village were not even a child... The one who did this evil thing was Yu Qi's uncle Yu Jincai."

Qian Qiaogong's face was pale, and he hit the table with a "bang" and shouted angrily: "Why is this? He just robs the grain, why do he still kill people?"

The yellow tumbler lowered his head and refused to answer.

"Say!" Qian Qiaogong glared at Huang Tuozi and shouted.

Huang Tuozi sighed lightly: "According to the eyes, the rebels were originally as the adults said, only robbing food and not killing people. But isn't this necessary to be prepared... Do you know that the adults know?"

Qian Qiaogong was stunned at first when he heard this, and then suddenly realized that his face turned from pale and blue. It turns out that the people were killed was because of their own reasons?

But Huang Tuozi said nothing.

The formation of the rebel army was originally initiated by a group of gangsters. Yu Qi was like Li Zicheng, a postman and could not even be called an official. When the rebel army was in charge, the rebel army did treat the people like relatives, only seeking trouble for the rich and evil gentry.

But when there is no clothing or food, and facing life and death, the rebel army without restraint will naturally start to "replenish on the spot". There is not enough wealthy people and bad gentry, and the people become helpless choices.

But they did have no intention of killing people at the beginning.

Yes, if you can successfully steal food, who is willing to kill someone?

But the question is, can the people be willing to be robbed?

Killing is just a matter of time.
