The situation suddenly changed, the Eastern invaders broke through the border, the king's army was in urgent need, and the king of the world was diligent.
The Donghua Gate in Jiangning was not closed even after nightfall. From time to time, fast horses holding tokens came in and out. There were twice as many officers and soldiers on duty inside and outside the Wengcheng than usual.
The night sky in Jiangning was filled with gloomy clouds, which were so thick that they were about to collapse. The cold wind whizzed past the corner of the city wall, making a whimpering sound that vaguely sounded like ghosts crying and wolves howling. People felt panic when they heard it. The old soldier at the city wall looked at
Looking at the clouds in the sky, I wondered if the weather was only in early October. Could it be that it would be the first snow of the year? The truth had really changed.
After Donglu broke through, the news of King Qin's edict from Yanjing could not be sealed. For most of the day, rumors spread around the river mouth. Even the deployment of King Qin's army from the Admiral's Mansion, the Garrison Mansion, and the Inspection and Envoys Division was also spread.
Sun Jingxuan rode a fast horse to the mouth of the river, only to find that a group of Dongcheng Wei horse infantry was on duty at the south gate of the fence. The situation suddenly became tense. Sun Jingxuan got off his horse, handed over his tooth tag, and led his horse into the fence with his subordinates, and walked to the front of the thatched cottage.
There was some hesitation: What if Lin Fu made a request that Xihe would be unable to bear?
Sun Jingxuan patted his head to expel distracting thoughts from his mind and walked towards the thatched cottage.
The lights in the thatched cottage were brightly lit, and there were many armed guards on duty in the courtyard. The doors and windows of the main hall were open. Sun Jingxuan walked into the courtyard and saw everyone in Hekou gathered in the thatched cottage to discuss matters.
"Here comes President Sun." Lin Fu watched Sun Jingxuan walk into the courtyard and walked out to greet him. "I believe that Chief Sun has heard about Yanjing's emergency, right?"
"Master Lin wants to go north with the army to King Qin?" Sun Jingxuan asked.
Rumors were everywhere and the situation was turbulent. Sun Jingxuan could not tell which news was true and which was false. They all said that the Inspector General would send troops to serve the king. The key point was how could the Inspector General send troops?
"I have just received my new official title, and I haven't even finished the seal on the letter. I will be sent to the Inspector General to prepare for the war, and I will go north with the army to King Qin." Lin Fu said with a smile, "Please come to me, Mr. Sun, if you have anything to ask me."
"Master Lin, please tell me?" Sun Jingxuan said.
The governor of the capital is an official of the seventh rank. Lin Fuyi announced that Yilang was appointed as the governor from the rank of seventh rank, which is not in line with the rules. However, Yanjing is in a hurry and the world's soldiers and horses are diligent. It is necessary to obey the power when the matter arises. Wait for the return of King Lin Fuqin.
, with the merits of following the army and serving the king, it is natural for him to be promoted to another level.
The Dujian was a military official, but in this dynasty, it was no longer a special case for the Supervisory Officer to directly lead the troops.
Sun Jingxuan thought that Gu Wuchen had temporarily promoted Lin Fu, so Lin Fu should be the main force dispatched by the Inspectorate. However, King Qin's army was led by Cheng Yuqian, the minister of the Jiangning Ministry of War, and the generals sent by the Admiral's Office and the Garrison Army Office would not be of the same rank.
If it is too low, Lin Fu will go with them, fearing that he will lose his qualifications, and if his official position is too low, he will be bullied. Sun Jingxuan still doesn't know where Gu Wuchen will send troops for Lin Fu to lead north to King Qin.
"It is not convenient to reveal the specific arrangements to Chairman Sun," Lin Fu said. "It is impossible to bring all the supplies from Jiangning. The Lin Family will send some people, and they also want to borrow boats and people from the Xihe Society to buy supplies along the way..."
"It's easy to say. How many ships and people do Master Lin need?" Sun Jingxuan asked.
There are many waterways connecting Jiangning to Yanjing, and there are many ports along the way. It is not difficult to just purchase materials and supplies. Besides, Yanjing is in a hurry, and it is difficult to predict how long the autumn canal will be delayed. As long as ships are mobilized, there will not be many manpower.
, not a big problem.
"I am about to leave the mouth of the river. Mr. Zhao is responsible for this matter. Please ask Mr. Zhao to discuss this matter with Chairman Sun." Lin Fu walked into the thatched cottage holding Sun Jingxuan's hand. Zhao Qinmin, Gu Siyuan, Liu Xilin and others were all in the thatched cottage.
Inside, even the chief of the river mouth, Cao Ziang, changed into a military uniform and was waiting for orders.
Sun Jingxuan was shocked. He knew that Cao Ziang was the leader of the first group of refugees who moved to Hekou. The refugees established households at Hekou, and Cao Ziang was elected as the head of the village. Cao Ziang had a crepe-like appearance and looked a bit nondescript at first glance when wearing leather armor, but Sun Jingxuan learned from this
At every detail, he realized that Lin Fu wanted to mobilize the soldiers from Hekou Mingyong to go north to Qinwang, otherwise Cao Ziang would not be able to put on the military uniform.
Sun Jingxuan saw that everyone in the thatched cottage had solemn expressions, and was even more convinced that Lin Fu's trip to the north was no small matter.
Lin Fu organized civilian bravery at Hekou and required all young and strong men in Hekou to undergo military rotation training for about half a month. This matter is not an unknown secret. However, the first batch of rotation training has not yet been completed, and only ordinary people have passed through it.
What combat effectiveness can be cultivated in half a month of rotational military training? Besides, there are rumors that the Inspectorate will recruit 3,000 soldiers and horses this time. Even if all the young and middle-aged men from Hekou are pulled out, there will only be about 3,000 people. Sun Jingxuan felt that Lin
This trip to the north has already cast a shadow.
Lin Fu welcomed Sun Jingxuan into the thatched cottage. He did not delay long before he, Ao Canghai and several guards took a U-Peng sailboat up the river overnight to Xisha Island.
In order to mobilize the limited elite troops, Lin Fu transferred Zhao Hu to Xisha Island to strengthen the defense there.
The most shameful secret on Prison Island is the mixing of illegal salt. At present, the transportation of illegal salt to Prison Island can only be temporarily stopped. Zhao Hu will also lead some soldiers to Xisha Island after many traces have been eliminated. Lin Fu recommended Changsun
Geng temporarily took over the post of prison officer, and the remaining military soldiers were temporarily controlled by Changsun Geng.
The garrison general's mansion was brightly lit, and an embroidered map of the situation in Yan and Hebei hung on the side wall of the Mingtang. Li Zhuo stood in front of the map with his hands behind his hands, looking at the night outside the window, and sighed: "The Donglu invaded the border with light armor and did not attack the city."
Yanjing will not lose its equipment easily; in addition, Donglu should not have too much confidence in attacking the capital..."
"If Donglu intends to invade Hebei, Shandong and other places, King Qin's army in various places may have to fight hard. Lin Fu leads three thousand people to follow the army north to King Qin. He is really brave... He will not be harmed this time.
Isn’t it miserable?” Gao Zongting said.
"How can a hero be a hero without a bit of ambition and courage?" Li Zhuo chuckled, not worried at all about Lin Fu's fate in going north this time. Li Zhuo would cherish the talented people in his descendants, so he did not hesitate to force Gu Wuchen into a corner and force him to
Gu Wuchen had no choice but to use Lin Fu as his general, but he also developed a heart of stone. If Lin Fu unfortunately died in the battle this time, he would not feel much regret. Those who shine in the long river of history
To be an outstanding figure, in addition to talent, you also need a bit of luck. Li Zhuo raised his head and looked at the situation map of Yan and Hebei, and then looked at the topographic map of Jianghuai on the desk, and sighed softly, "After winter, Hongzepu Liu
The thief must be making some unusual moves, and I'm worried that Zuo Shangrong won't be able to handle it..."
"It's not out of spite. If someone so disregards the overall situation and suppresses the commander-in-chief, Haozhou should also be defeated..." Gao Zongting said angrily.
"This is not the time to talk angrily. Do you think Changhuai Town has been destroyed and there is no chance for me to lead troops into battle?" Li Zhuo asked.
"Why not?" Gao Zongting asked.
"It won't happen," Li Zhuo shook his head sadly, "If the Haozhou direction is defeated, the people in Jiangning will not dare to make Jiangning lose, for fear that they will allow the Liu thieves to enter Huaishang. The Donglu have broken through the border.
The shortcomings of Yanshan's northern defense line have been exposed. After the siege is lifted, the DPRK will definitely discuss moving the capital. Moving the capital is a major matter for the country and will not be done rashly, but it does not mean that the Holy Spirit will not move the capital..."
"The commander-in-chief thinks that the Holy Emperor will send his henchmen to manage Jiangdong?" Gao Zongting asked.
"After all, we will make some preparations," Li Zhuo said. "If Haozhou is defeated, it will be time to appoint the governor of Jianghuai. Do you think the Chu Party will allow me to take the position of governor of Jianghuai? Then I might become a stumbling block again.
, I don’t know where to kick him.”
"..." Gao Zongting only felt desolate.
"I can't control the future. Even if I resign and go back, the whole country will not be able to find a happy land." Li Zhuo was open-minded. He said these things with a smile on his face and said, "Lin
If Fu can return without envy, then the Eastern Front can rely on him. Even if Haozhou is defeated, the situation in Jiangdong will not be eroded. The Battle of Jiyang really squeezed out half a year of precious time for the critical situation in Jiangdong. At least it made things easier
The two fronts are unable to respond... This time, the second son of the She family will not be stable in Jiangning. You need the Jianrui camp to keep a close eye on him. If there is anything wrong, ask them to arrest him directly. The She family is not ready, better than us.
I don’t even dare to fall out directly.”
She Feihu was so excited that he learned that one hundred thousand Donghu cavalry invaded from the Xuanhua border wall and crossed the mountain pass to attack Yanjing.
Even under Jiangning's strict surveillance, She Feihu resolutely operated the hidden lines inside and outside Jiangning City, collecting and transmitting information. There were many people in Jiangdong who hated the She family to their core, but there were also those who bribed the She family and planned to wait for the She family to fight.
There are only one or two officials with a good background in Jiangdong. It was not difficult for She Feihu to obtain the deployment status of King Qin of Jiangdong.
Jiangdong only mobilized 10,000 miscellaneous soldiers from various places to go north to King Qin. She Feihu was greatly disappointed. He said to Qin Zitan who was sitting at the bottom: "Send someone to Sizhou to tell Liu An'er that he can't delay this any longer.
If he doesn't seize the opportunity, he will have no chance to seize it."
"Liu An'er is afraid that he can't delay it any longer," Qin Zitan said. "He has accommodated hundreds of thousands of refugees in Sizhou and other counties, and there should be very little food left. The four prefectures have strictly blocked the entry and exit of Hongzepu, making Si
The price of salt in the state is so high that one pound of salt costs one tael of silver. As long as we pass the information accurately and timely, Liu An'er will know what to do..."
"Well," She Feihu felt that what Qin Zitan said was reasonable, and he slapped the table fiercely and said, "Lin Fu is really arrogant. He was so bold that he dared to go north to King Qin with three thousand people, and he also said
He must lead the army independently by land. The post road from Jiangning to Yanjing is more than two thousand miles, and I would like to see how he can lead three thousand people to cover two thousand miles in one month!"
"Appointment, appointment. In fact, this is a big trick played by Lin Fu. As long as he is not slower than Cheng Yuqian, it will not be missed," She Zitan said, "Donglu invaded this time, and I am afraid he will not retreat within a month.
, Cheng Yuqian leads all the soldiers and horses of King Qin in Jiangdong, and they will not dare to rush in rashly, then Lin Fu will never be missed..."
"It's really abominable," She Feihu heard Qin Zitan's analysis, and felt more and more that Lin Fu was very cunning, so he asked Qin Zitan, "Do you think he will take away all his people from Xisha Island?
"
"It's hard to say," Qin Zitan said uncertainly, "Send someone to deliver a message to the eldest son. After King Qin's soldiers set off, we will know more about it by sending troops to test the reality of Xisha Island..." He looked at the young man sitting beside him.
Mrs. Song Jia took a look and felt strange: The young lady and the young lady went to the mouth of the river to listen to Zhao Shuhan's lecture on prison science. Why did they come back so thoughtful?
