Luo Wenhu returned to Haizhou that night with a frigate that suffered a bombing accident due to a control error during the Hejin naval battle. Three nearby gun positions were also damaged at the same time. Directly heading west from the Hanjiang Bay, there is a frigate in the southern waters of the Shandong Peninsula.
Ocean currents allow navigation to pass quickly.
When passing through the waters south of Jimo, we also encountered a sentry ship of the Dengzhou Navy. However, the enemy sentry ship fled north when it encountered the enemy's sentry ship. The military also strictly prohibited new warships from pursuing the enemy's sentry ship without encirclement and annihilation.
, so as not to expose the details of the new warship in advance.
On the afternoon of April 12, Luo Wenhu escorted the prisoners of war to disembark in Haizhou; the prisoners of war were taken over by special personnel.
Lin Fu directly wrote about the world in Haizhou, issued a general mobilization order, and imposed an indefinite curfew on Jiangning and other cities. When new and reserve brigades were formed, the more important thing was to gather in Shouzhou, Xuzhou, Nanyang and other places.
At least on the day Luo Wenhu arrived in Haizhou, the military headquarters was still creating a war atmosphere in which the Northern Expedition would send troops from Xuzhou and march along Bian and Sibei. The news of Hejin's victory was tightly blocked, and no generals below the battalion level knew about it.
When I entered the city, I met an old friend whom I had met in Suizhou and wondered why he was suddenly transferred back to Haizhou.
As soon as Luo Wenhu settled down in the post house, the staff sent someone to inform him to report to the headquarters after eating the evening newspaper. How could Luo Wenhu be in a good mood to have dinner at the post house? He hurriedly washed up and came over with the Haidong marching army.
With the latest plan to divide the troops, he rushed directly to the headquarters office to wait for the summons.
Luo Wenhu rushed to the government office, and soon someone came to tell him to go to the inner courtyard, where he saw Lin Fu, Cao Ziang, Song Fu, Gao Zongting, Zhou Pu, Ge Cunxin, Sun Jingtang and other senior generals dining around the table.
Seeing Luo Wenhu coming, Lin Fu pointed to the table and said, "I thought you would come over later. Have you had dinner?" Seeing that Luo Wenhu was about to refuse, he pointed to the table with his chopsticks and ordered the waiters,
"Give Luo Wenhu a pair of bowls and chopsticks. There's no way we can talk about things later if we're hungry."
Zhou Pu and Ge Cunxin moved a seat between them and asked Luo Wenhu to sit down.
Luo Wenhu thought that if he had known this, he might as well have eaten in the post house before coming back. He was full of anxiety and mixed with a group of high-ranking generals, and had a formal meal. After the meal, the other generals went about their own business, except Song Fu and Gao Zongting.
, Cao Ziang and the other two stayed to accompany Lin Fu to ask Luo Wenhu about the details of Haidong.
"You have been in Haidong for more than two years," Lin Fu asked Luo Wenhu as he sat down casually in front of the long table, "This time you came here, you also spent more than two days on the same ship with Cui He. From your perspective,
Can the military put some of its chips on Cui..."
Luo Wenhu thought that the military had urgently escorted Cui He back to Haizhou, and he must have wanted to find another way to solve the Goryeo issue. However, he was not clear about the overall plan of the military for a while. When Lin Fu directly asked such an important question, he felt that
Somewhat difficult to answer.
Seeing that Luo Wenhu was hesitant, Gao Zongting explained the overall plan of Goryeo in the general department nearby: "The Zhen family hopes to completely overthrow the Goryeo royal family and replace the Li family as the King of Goryeo; but this is not conducive to a quick resolution of the Goryeo problem. Zhen was granted the title of "Hai"
Yang raised his troops under the banner of the Qing Dynasty. The military department was considering whether to retain the Goryeo royal family and only aim to kill Goryeo Prime Minister Zuo Jing and others, so that Goryeo could quickly return to rule and restore people's livelihood?"
After listening to Gao Zongting's brief explanation, Luo Wenhu wanted to understand.
The forces of Goryeo Prime Minister Zuo Jing who surrendered to Yanhu must be eradicated. At this time, the 20,000 Donghu horse infantry who are supporting the war in Goryeo must also be resolutely eliminated. However, the military does not want Zhen to replace Li as the leader of Goryeo.
The Korean King of the Peninsula.
Lin Fu saw that Luo Wenhu was thoughtful, but expected him to have some insights.
Generally speaking, the new regime will have strong vitality to keep up with the ambition, and the newly formed bureaucracy will be relatively clean and efficient; once the Zhen family is asked to replace the Li family to rebuild the Goryeo royal court, Goryeo is likely to follow
Gaining the opportunity to rise within decades is not in line with the interests of the new empire in Haidong.
A relatively better plan is to retain the Goryeo royal family and let the Zhen family replace the Zuo family's position in Goryeo at this time. However, Goryeo also needs other forces to check and balance the Zhen family. This plan will reduce the number of troops marching to Haidong in the Goryeo civil war.
The unnecessary sacrifice can quickly resolve the current situation in Goryeo, and can also slightly limit the excessive rise of the Zhen family.
Lin Fu hoped that Cui Quanchen and Cui He and his son could become the key promoters of this plan, so he urgently asked Ma Yigong to send the captured Cui He to Haizhou via Luo Wenhu.
Luo Wenhu said: "With the secret permission of Governor Chen, I finally talked with Cui Hejiāo several times on the ship. When Prime Minister Zuo Jing of Korea appointed Cui Quanchen, he had to rely on Cui Quanchen's ability to manage the navy. However, in the early years, Cui Quanchen was the admiral of Shannan County.
The navy was not promoted for many years and had nothing to do with Zuo Jing and other officials. After Ye Ji Baishi came to Shaocheng to lead the army, he was frivolous and had no respect for the veteran Cui Quanchen.
There is also a lot of dissatisfaction in this heart; but because Donghu has always been strong in Goryeo and has a large-scale military garrison, Cui has to swallow his anger. Furthermore, from what the general has seen, Cui He seems to be called Fu Huo Shen Nu.
Dexin has no fighting spirit - Cui Quanchen is more loyal to the royal family. If he does not abolish the Goryeo royal family, but kills Prime Minister Zuo Jing and helps get rid of the barbarians, Cui should be able to accept such conditions..."
"Since Wen Hu said so, I will meet Cui He." Lin Fu said, and ordered him to go to the prison and bring Cui He over.
Just as Luo Wenhu said, when Cui He was guarding the main fortress of Asuka Mountain, he was frightened by the power of the intensive bombardment and had no will to resist. However, he still had the demeanor of a son of a noble family. His years of experience in leading troops in combat also gave him a strong backbone and gave him a strong character.
When he was summoned to the front of the hall, he scanned the people in front of the hall, then lowered his eyes and nose, and stood there calmly waiting for his departure.
Lin Fu had no intention of having a direct and in-depth conversation with Cui He. He just asked some trivial questions about whether he could get used to the life of a prisoner and whether he had any other requirements. Then he asked someone to take Cui He down and said: "This court is here.
Jiang Ning also heard that you studied military skills in Hanyang and had a good reputation. I shouldn't treat you like this. However, Goryeo is a vassal state of our dynasty, but it helps the tyrants to do evil, so our court has to send troops to suppress it. Please feel relieved.
If you want to stay here, I would like to ask You Si if you have any request. I will consider sending you back to Goryeo when the war subsides..." He ordered his subordinates to put Cui He under house arrest and let him meditate in Haiju for a few days.
Cui He is the second son of Cui Quanchen, but Cui Quanchen’s eldest son has died on the battlefield, and Cui Quanchen is old. Cui He is the natural heir of the Cui family. Cui He actually doesn’t have much choice, so Lin Fu is not worried
Cui Hyuk would refuse the conditions he proposed, but instead he was worried that Cui Hyuk would not be able to support Adou.
After Cui He was taken away, Lin Fu said with a smile: "This Cui He can still maintain some dignity even after being captured, so he is a good candidate..."
"When walking around Haizhou City, shouldn't we restrain him too much and let him gain more knowledge?" Gao Zongting asked.
He wanted to continue the development of the new learning system, but was actually unable to prevent its spread to surrounding areas.
The Jianghuai River is in great need of high-quality coal from Shannan, Goryeo, which has actually led to the rapid development of Goryeo's coal mining industry; it is in great need of copper and silver from Kyushu Island, which has actually made Kyushu Island's copper smelting and silver smelting technology make great progress - these are unavoidable
However, Zhen Feng, Saga Yorigen, Kongo Tsuno and others are all pragmatic and realistic heroes. The example of the Huaidong Army has led them to pay great attention to learning Huaidong's new learning and new policies in recent years.
The system lies in taking the lead in implementing Huaidong's new learning and new policies in their respective spheres of influence in recent years.
Yanhu's speed in promoting new learning as a whole is limited, but after all, it controls 20 to 30 million people, and the actual scale of talents it can gather is quite considerable. In addition, individual powerful people attach great importance to it, and its performance in imitating specific technologies is
It showed very good abilities - Lin Fu thought that if there was a truce for two or three years after the Hejin naval battle, Yanhu might be able to build a pretty good artillery according to the actual firing conditions of the artillery.
At this time, whether it is artillery, steam engines, or telescopes, they are all breakthroughs based on traditional craftsmanship. They are at the level where light can be seen by piercing the window paper. There is no huge difference in technical principles.
——If the new empire wants to popularize the new education, there is no way to keep some basic things secret. Some basic things must also be kept strictly confidential, and it cannot be popularized. In fact, it will only severely limit its own development.
Lin Fu could not stop the Zhen clan, the Saga clan, the Kingo clan and even the Yanhu and other foreign clans from imitating and learning Huaidong's new learning and new political system. In fact, if the new empire does not want to rest on its own laurels, and does not want the new empire to achieve some great achievements, it will not stop.
Before that, there must be competitors.
But at the same time, Lin Fu must also consider weakening the substantial threats that these competitors may pose to the new empire.
Lin Fu will use the Cui family to check the Zhen family in Goryeo in the future. If the Cui family is stubborn and sticks to the traditional way, it will naturally not be the opponent of the Zhen family. Lin Fu has no way to prevent the Zhen family from completely controlling the power of Goryeo.
It is actually quite necessary for Cui He to gain experience and broaden his horizons in Haizhou.
Lin Fu thought for a while, nodded, and said to Luo Wenhu: "Then you will accompany Cui He and carefully explore what is thinking in his mind. In addition to military secrets above the secret level, you might as well do more with him.
Introduction. If the locking of the coastal defense line goes smoothly, you might as well ask him to follow the army northward, or he can have a more intuitive sense."
At this time, a guard came in and reported: "Southeast Navy Commander Zhao Qingshan and Deputy Commander Yue Zhi want to see..."
"Invite them in quickly..." Lin Fu stood up holding the table and looked at the door to welcome Zhao Qingshan and Yue Zhi in.
Only then did Luo Wenhu know that the main force of the Southeast Navy had been secretly transferred to the vicinity of Haizhou, and that the First Special Forces Fleet had completed its supply of ammunition at Hejin Island. It had almost no losses in the Hejin naval battle, and could go into another battle at any time. It seemed that the surprise attack
The sea defense line will be closed in these two days...
Seeing that Luo Wenhu was about to stand up and leave, Lin Fu left him behind and said, "You stay. I will need you to introduce He Jin's situation later."
