[Read the full text] Master Lu wants to eat, so of course Fan Twelve has to serve him. As the shopkeeper and chef of the restaurant, he is no stranger to making this - I can't afford decent fish, so this delicious and cheap thing is Dishes commonly made in restaurants

Even so, sea sausage is still a bit cheap. In good times, people rarely eat it. Most of them are used to feed pigs, and some people use it for fishing. Fan Twelve knows that although this thing is cheap, it can be delicious. , so on weekdays I always make some sea sausage powder for seasoning and use it as soup stock.

Fan Twelve agreed wholeheartedly and hurried to the kitchen of the Wang family cemetery: a large part of the cemetery is the Yangzhai. The master and his wife often have to stay here for a few days when they visit the graves in the twelfth lunar month and go out in the spring. Therefore, the facilities in the Yangzhai are roughly the same as those of ordinary wealthy families. It's similar, and the kitchen is also very sophisticated. Not only is it fully equipped with stoves, but also pots and pans. It's even more complete than the guy at Fan Twelve Restaurant.

The kitchen had been cleaned so much that Fan Twelve felt "too clean" - it was too clean. This group of local warriors from Lujiazhai showed their astonishing mysophobia from the moment they arrived at the door. Everyone put down their backs and Apart from the people who were on sentry duty, the only thing I carried with me was to sweep the streets, courtyards and clean up garbage: not only the station sweeps, but also the streets and alleys in Guanxiang were swept clean. There were piles of garbage and dirt on the streets. The house was also cleaned up, and even the potholes on the street were filled and leveled with soil and broken bricks. The whole building suddenly felt brand new.

Fan Twelve has lived in Laizhou for most of his life and has seen a lot of people and things. Except for the fact that the magistrate of Laizhou sometimes organizes paijia to clean the streets and repair roads to meet imperial envoys and superior officials, he has never There is no such thing as sweeping the streets. The sanitation on the streets is managed by the batui soldiers who "watch the streets", that is, they sprinkle water on the streets, clean up the roads and dump corpses, etc.

It is normal for garbage to be everywhere, and it is not uncommon to defecate everywhere. For example, the outer wall of his small restaurant is often stinked by people defecating in the street.

Fan Twelve rubbed his feet outside the door, then walked in cautiously, and saw someone working in the kitchen. He thought it was the cook brought by the village heroes, but when he took a closer look, it was Mr. Lu.

Mr. Lu Tuanzong was surrounded by a cooking sheet in front of him, his sleeves were rolled up, and he was busy working. Fan Twelve was so stunned that he couldn't even speak - this Mr. Lu also cooks by himself? !

Based on his knowledge, if he can be the leader of a village and bring out many capable fighters at any time, he is quite a figure on the ground\/\/ \/\/

I didn't expect him to go to the kitchen to work in person, which was a bit confusing - looking at this guy, he looks like a guy with thin skin and white flesh, and he doesn't look like he came from a poor background.

Seeing Fan Twelve come in, Lu Zeyang called out: "Come, help me pack the sea sausage!"

Another purpose of Lu Yuanlao's trip to Haimiao Port was to satisfy his wish and he saw the two delicacies he had coveted for a long time - sea sausage and mackerel meat. Although it was frozen at sea, it was also in time for the sea sausage harvest season. Lu Yuanlao The veteran has longed for this flavor for a long time, but unfortunately Lingao neither produces it nor can anyone make it, so he makes do with bamboo shoot jelly, but it doesn’t taste the same. Now that he’s been dispatched back to the Jiaodong Peninsula, he naturally wants to feast on it. As for the engine, wait until he’s full. Let's talk about it later

Now Lu Zeyang gave Fan Twelve instructions on how to cook - modern people's cooking is somewhat different from that of Ming Dynasty people, especially in terms of heat and seasoning. He then gave Fan Twelve instructions on how to chop fish and mix stuffing.

Fan Twelve wanted to please "Mr. Lu Tuan", so he fried a few more dishes besides sea sausage. He thought Lu Tuan always wanted to drink, but in the end he didn't want anything and just fried the sea sausage with a pot full of leeks. Still not satisfied after eating it, he asked Fan Twelve to cook more than fifty dumplings stuffed with mackerel balls for snacks.

"Bring it to the hall in a minute," he ordered, taking the map, calipers and notepad with him to the bedroom to consider the strategy.

"Okay! Take a look." Fan Twelve knocked on the edge of the pot and regained the feeling of a restaurant manager.

Lu Zeyang chose a room next to the hall as his bedroom - this is the balcony part of the Wang family cemetery. The housing facilities are very sophisticated, with fire dragons installed. The orderlies lit a fire and the whole room was as warm as spring. Unfortunately, the secret of his life was He studied accounting, so he couldn't serve as a female orderly with multiple specialties. Thinking of this, he immediately considered that after returning to Lingao, he would choose one or two big girls from his hometown in another time and space to serve as his bodyguards.

There were guards standing guard outside the room - the elders were still very careful about their own lives. Elder Lu burped and paced back and forth in the room with a belly full of belly. After eating and drinking, his mood became much brighter, and he also expressed his feelings towards the room. The outlook is also optimistic. Since God's will is so, waiting for a month is enough. The top priority is to quickly put his ideas on paper and send them back to Lingao as soon as possible to win the support of several big guys in the financial department at the enlarged meeting of the executive committee. The bill was passed in favor of

Thinking of this, Lu Zeyang stuffed two more dumplings into his mouth and shouted vaguely to the orderly outside: "Make a pot of tea, it's too salty!"

I stayed up on the kang until midnight, and the "Laizhou Bay Shipping Situation Investigation Report" that cost more than 30,000 yuan was finally released. With this report, I had enough information to start the ppt, and it showed my extraordinary ability when I held the enlarged meeting. As the saying goes Whether the work is good or not mainly depends on the report. Mr. Lu knocked on his sore thigh and said with a smile on his face: Finally, he has put some thought into it. Next, it will depend on the ability of Cheng Dong and Yifan in the Senate, and he For now, we still have to help Old Man Sun guard Laizhou City!

With the Qianduo company with powerful firepower guarding him, Lu Zeyang was not worried about the safety of Laizhou City. Historically, when there were only more than a thousand scattered reinforcements, Zhu Wannian and the two governors relied on the four to five thousand old men who had been pieced together in the city. The weak team defended the city. Now that we have decided to use Laizhou City as a temporary winter settlement for the refugees, we must put in some effort on city defense. At least the core part of Laizhou City: the four passes and four corners must be preserved.

From the map, Laizhou Fucheng is a rectangle running from north to south. The part outlined by the city wall is roughly equivalent to the area enclosed by the later four streets of Huadong Street, Changnan Road, Quandong Street and Laizhou South Road. In addition, there are also areas in the east, west, north and south. There is also a quite prosperous gate outside each of the four city gates-now this place has been "fortified and cleared" by Sun Yuanhua. Most of the residents have gathered into the city, and there are many vacant houses. It is suitable to use it as a refugee camp. They want it now. It can be protected by the range of the artillery - but there are only two mountain grenades available at the moment.

There are thirty-six general cannons in Laizhou City. Although they are not as good as the Hongyi cannons, they have also played a great role in defensive battles in history. With these cannons, the rebels did not dare to push too close.

Zhu Mingxia also promised that if necessary, he would send reinforcements to Laizhou from the sea as soon as he called. By maneuvering one or two companies from the sea to Hutou Cliff or Haimiao Port, the rebels could easily be caught unawares. If the situation was favorable, Zhu Mingxia also promised , it is also possible to seize the opportunity to annihilate and capture prisoners.

Compared with Sun Yuanhua's uneasiness, the elders actually despised the rebels' combat effectiveness: from the moment they raised the rebel flag, the little organizational discipline that this army originally retained has long since disappeared. Of course, the original Under the banner of the Ming Dynasty, they are just a group of veterans who serve as soldiers and eat food. Strip away the sophisticated equipment and a large number of horses on the surface, and what is left is just a group of ordinary bandits who rape and plunder for their own benefit. Although some of them Some people hold a deep hatred for the Shandong surname and the government, but more people just want to get gold, silver and women.

Such an army can bully the surnames, and the unstoppable officers and soldiers can fight with the wind. But when it comes to the tough defense of Laizhou City, no one is willing to fight for it. At the beginning, Laizhou only had a few thousand old and weak soldiers, but it withstood tens of thousands of rebels. The army was besieged with a large number of firearms and defended for more than half a year. It was nothing more than relying on the enthusiasm of the Jin gentry in the city to "defend their homeland" and sharing the same hatred with the enemy.

As long as the rebels are hurt and the first burst of energy is dissipated, the opponent's next attack will not be as fierce. In order to maintain morale and the loyalty of his subordinates, the rebel generals have no choice but to let go of the Laizhou territory. What better way to do this? This also gives the Senate more opportunities to recruit refugees.

Of course, the specific combat arrangements still need to be discussed with Xiong Qianduo and his officers. Sun Yuanhua also needs to be easy to greet, and both parties should cooperate well in their actions - this is tantamount to publicly flexing their muscles under the eyes of the Ming Dynasty bureaucrats, in case anyone " Sending a memorial "Loyal to the Emperor and Patriotic" to the capital would inevitably cause chaos. This kind of "unified caliber" work also requires the help of Sun Junmen.

Therefore, he decided to have as little contact with local bureaucrats as possible except Sun Yuanhua. Even Sun Yuanhua should be as rare as possible to avoid attracting attention, especially Wang Daochun. This person had a very bad impression of Sun Yuanhua and believed that Sun Yuanhua was responsible for Dengzhou. The main culprit of the great change in history was Wang Daochun who stated in his memorial on the 18th day of the first month of the fifth year of Chongzhen: Kong Youde made things difficult for Shandong and conquered seven counties in less than six days. On the tenth day, Dengzhou fell again, and it was all because of Sun Yuanhua, a rebellious minister. The reason for the bribery and indulgence of Governor Yu Dacheng is that when Dengzhou just fell, the rebels stole the seal of Governor Denglai and issued notices everywhere asking the state governments to send food and wages to Dengzhou. I suspect that Sun Yuanhua also rebelled.

Now, due to the intervention of the Senate, Sun Yuanhua got out of trouble in time and showed an active attitude of encirclement and suppression. Therefore, Wang Daochun did not present this important memorial to Sun Yuanhua. To be continued. If you like this work, You are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes.
