Liu Jiahao was very fond of the two brothers Lin Jian'an and Lin Jianyue, who were both born bandits, and felt that he was their close comrade-in-arms with the same goals.

Liu Jiahao had long wanted to send someone to contact Lin Jianyue, but Lin Jianyue didn't spend much time in Ruzhou after he took office. He was getting married and went to Jianning. As a force, he was very proud of his status and disdain to be with Lin Jianyue.

When his subordinates talked about things like Zhu Jianheng, he ignored them.

Liu Jiahao was able to turn from a bandit leader into a local force. He was certainly capable. Marching and fighting was no problem. He was also particularly good at mountain warfare. He was besieged by the Mongolian and Hu armies several times. Instead, Liu Jiahao used the terrain to counterattack and succeeded. The Hu in Shangzhou

The army was helpless against Liu Jiahao, and the stalemate has continued until now.

It's just that Shangzhou is really small and the people are small, and Liu Jiahao can't develop and grow. He once went to see Tie Qingfeng, but he looked down on Tie Qingfeng. He felt that Tie Qingfeng was fighting against Hu, but he was not fighting against Hu wholeheartedly. He always had some insecurities.

He does not want to be attached to actual ambitions and desires.

Liu Jiahao knew Lin Jianyue's rise to prominence and particularly appreciated Lin Jianyue's determination to expel the Tartars. He also admired Lin Jianyue's courage.

Now Lin Jianyue has been officially appointed by the imperial court as the military governor of the three towns. Long Jie is in charge of the army, inspects the school and has Shaobao, and is the founding father of Nanyang County. His name is justifiable, and Liu Jiahao is very envious.

It's not that Liu Jiahao didn't write to the court, hoping to have a formal title. It's just that he only had less than 10,000 soldiers and occupied only three counties. He was still in the mountains and was insignificant. The court didn't take him seriously at all. The letter fell into the sea, as if

It never existed, and Liu Jiahao was very angry.

Liu Jiahao also inquired about what happened to Lin Jianyue in the court, and felt that Lin Jianyue was a temperamental person who looked down on the court and was more interested in relying on Lin Jianyue.

Liu Jiahao has received advance notice from Long Jiejun that Lin Jianyue has led an army into Shangzhou and will be stationed outside Shangjin County and will meet with him.

Liu Jiahao didn't have many doubts and hesitations. If Lin Jianyue really wanted to do something to him, he could just push him over. He couldn't resist it, and he didn't believe that Lin Jianyue would do this. Maybe let him see the military appearance of Long Jiejun?

When we arrived at the Long Jie Army camp outside the city, there were tents one after another. There was no money in sight, and Liu Jiahao estimated that there were tens of thousands of people.

It is indeed an elite division that defeated the Menghu Cavalry Army. In Liu Jiahao's eyes, the military appearance is very neat. The soldiers are all tall and strong, with distinctive armor, orderly and full of murderous intent. Even though it is not war time, the training is still strict.

I feel much stronger than my own thousands of grass-head troops.

He led four or five people straight to the Chinese army camp. As soon as he arrived outside the tent, he saw a young man wearing a special Yongling style jacket standing outside the tent to greet him with a smile. Although the clothes were not luxurious,

But he has a different kind of style, with Yuan Ting and Yue Zhi, and his bearing is extraordinary.

Liu Jiahao did not feel that this was disrespectful to him, but was very kind. Obviously Lin Jianyue had known him before, and this was the greatest respect.

Lin Jianyue has clothes that suit his status and official position, but he doesn't like to wear them and only wears them on special occasions. It works, except for Liu Bingyun who is very dissatisfied. Long Jie's army all wears such clothes on weekdays unless they are training for war.

Southwest Road forms a special scenery.

Liu Jiahao dismounted from a distance, took off his sword, stepped forward quickly and saluted: "Shangnan Liu Jiahao, I came here to pay homage to the Commander-in-Chief!" Before he started to say anything, he first put himself in the position of a subordinate, a man from Yongling.

Once you make a decision, you don't have to be pretentious and come to meet alone. That's your attitude.

"No need to be polite, Marshal Liu is famous. When I was a bandit, I heard about Marshal Liu's heroic deeds in fighting against the barbarians. Even if I expel the Tartars, I can be considered a junior. Meeting in the military camp today is already very disrespectful, but it doesn't matter. There will be more in the future.

It’s an opportunity to meet and get along.”

When we met for the first time, they were all long-term leaders. It was necessary to compliment each other. They all said their best, and the atmosphere quickly became harmonious. It was time to get down to business.

After three rounds of drinking, Lin Jianyue said first: "The current anti-Hu situation in the Central Plains is not good. Liu Shuai certainly knows that. I have always believed that it is impossible to defeat the Mongols alone. Only by forming a joint force can we achieve greater results."

, I would like to invite Liu Shuai to lead his troops to join the Long Jie Army, what do you think?"

Lin Jianyue did not make a wish as soon as he came up, nor did he come here for this. Expelling the Tartars was everyone's common wish. He also placed Liu Jiahao in a very high position. Even if Liu Jiahao did not agree today, Lin Jianyue would not force it.

Liu Jiahao knew very well that, let alone competing with Long Jiejun, even in any state, they were stronger than him. Lin Jianyue personally came to invite him, which actually gave him a lot of face.

Liu Jiahao immediately bowed down and said: "Liu is willing to obey the commander-in-chief's orders!"

Lin Jianyue hurriedly helped Liu Jiahao up, held his arm and smiled: "Liu Shuai is so cheerful. From today on, you and I are brothers. Let us work together to create a great cause to fight against Hu!"

Now that we've reached an agreement, it's time to talk about the next arrangements.

"Although Shangzhou is not big, its strategic location is very critical. If you go north, you can pass through Guanzhong, and if you go east, you can threaten Luoyang. I intend to form the Eighth Army of the Longjie Army with Brother Liu's men as the main force, and also supply supplementary food and equipment. Appointment

Brother Liu is the deputy capital and commander of the Eighth Army of the Long Jie Army, and he has written to the imperial court to appoint an envoy to the Shangzhou Defense System, a guerrilla general. Shangzhou is the back and front of the Long Jie Army, so it is under the control of Liu."

Liu Jiahao was overjoyed. The reason why he couldn't develop before was because he lacked people, food, weapons and armor. Shangzhou was too small and couldn't cross the natural barrier of Wuguan City. Now with support, once the Eighth Army develops, it can capture Shangzhou alone.

.

His rights have not been reduced, but have been expanded, and he has gained status. Even as a subordinate, Liu Jiahao is willing to do so. He just wants to expel the Tartars and restore the Central Plains, and has no ambitions. At the moment, he is very grateful to Lin Jianyue for his generosity and trust. He feels that this

He is the one who achieves great things.

"Don't worry, Commander Jie. Once the formation of the Eighth Army is completed, I will definitely look after Shangzhou for Commander Jie."

"Okay, to be honest with Brother Liu, I have one more thing to do here this time, which is to go to Wuguan City to meet with my second brother Zhu Jianheng to discuss the strategies for conquering Shangluo and Hu Jun in Shangluo. Once successful, Shangzhou will be owned by Long Jiejun. Brother Liu

He is good at fighting in the mountains. When the time comes, he can lead the Shangzhou army to cross the mountain passes and cooperate with me to attack Luoyang. It will be miraculous."

Liu Jiahao was shocked and finally knew what Lin Jianyue was leading the army for. He hurriedly said: "Zhu Jianheng will not let the army of Commander Jieh enter the city. How can Commander Commander Ji take risks? I have met Zhu Jianheng and I think he has some evil intentions. I even doubt him.

Menghu has surrendered! Jie Shuai can rest assured, within three years, I will capture Shangzhou for Jie Shuai, and Jie Shuai cannot go."

Lin Jianyue sighed and said: "But Menghu will not give me three years. At most next year, maybe this year, Menghu will launch another attack on Ruzhou. Now there are nearly 200,000 troops gathered around Luoyang. If

If we don't make any surprise moves, although we can't say that the next battle will be defeated, it will definitely be difficult. And if we are not prepared, Brother Liu will lead a surprise attack on Luoyang while I am confronting the main force of Meng Hu.

It is possible for our army to cross the Yellow River, but the situation would be very different."

Lin Jianyue has been considering this strategy for a long time. Even if Liu Jiahao does not join the Long Jie Army, he will implement it like this. Now he is naturally more confident, which is why he is so urgent.

"Besides, Zhu Jianheng has grown up with me since childhood and has been very good to me. Now he represents my eldest brother Lin Jian'an. There should be no conspiracy. Besides, I brought the First Army here this time and stationed it on the four fronts of Wuguan City.

Near Daoling, there are cavalry support behind it. How powerful Wuguan City can be, others will not dare to have any thoughts."

Liu Jiahao was worried and still felt something was wrong. He just saw hope that something would really happen to Lin Jianyue and everything would be in vain.

But looking at Lin Jianyue's resolute attitude, it cannot be said that even his own brother cannot believe such nonsense. He also knows who Lin Jianyue is.
