The person who came to contact Wukou Village was the remnant of the Jinzhong Army, Wu Tian, the former deputy lieutenant of Zhenwei of the Jinzhong Qinwang Division.
Jinhai is only more than 200 miles away from the capital, and the remnants of Jinzhong's army were forced to defend the villages in Jinhai. However, it was easy to send people to sneak back to Yanjing to find out information, and they knew some of the situation of various Qinwang divisions. Lin Fu took charge of the capital with Zheng Qipin.
It was quite eye-catching that he was a low-level civil servant leading an army alone. Some people in the court even used this as an excuse to attack Gu Wuchen for treating the King of Qin in the capital like child's play in order to promote his confidants. Naturally, the target of the attack was also aimed at the Chu party.
Before the Jiangdong Left Army marched north to Yannan, Wu Tian also heard about Lin Fu.
In addition to this time Lin Fu led the Jiangdong left army alone, in the bloody battle in Jiyang, Yang Pu and Lin Fu led their elite troops to move outside the city and fight within the city. They were also a model of defensive warfare against the Donghai bandits whose strength was several times their own.
Although Yang Zhaoqi was quite disgusted with the Chu party's control of government and exclusion of dissidents during his lifetime, he considered the situation and admired the performance of Chu party members Gu Wuchen, Yang Pu, Lin Fu and others in the bloody battle in Jiyang. Therefore, Wu Tian, Yang Yihang and other Jinzhong admirals
The military attachés of the government had also known about Lin Fu's existence for a long time.
Regarding the Cangnan Great Victory, due to the channel blockage in Hejian Prefecture and the various villages distrusting the Jiangdong Zuo Army scouts who came to contact them, it was not until the people from Yanjing came back to inquire about the news that they learned the news of the Cangnan Great Victory that shocked the capital after a delay of seven or eight days.
Lin Fu's young age was beyond Wu Tian's expectation. He had no time to take care of his lips and mustache, which were a bit messy. His face was thin and dark, with strong lines and a pair of bright eyes, making him look older than his actual age.
Some, but in front of Wu Tian, who is already twenty-nine years old this year, Lin Fu is still young.
Lin Fu's brows did not have the weak temperament of a scholar. His face was frosty, and he was wearing a green armor robe, a tie around his waist, and two long and short swords. At a glance, people would believe that he was a resolute man who would meet every situation.
A person who is unbreakable and can be trusted by others. Only such a person can win such beautiful battles as the bloody battle of Jiyang and the great victory of Cangnan.
Wu Tian originally came into contact with Jiangdong Zuojun with the attitude of giving it a try, and was led aboard the ship. When he first saw Lin Fu, he was a little impressed. In the end, it was Lin Fu's image that Wu Tian admired.
The imagination of a famous general and a wise general; with the bloody battle in Jiyang and the great victory in Cangnan to back it up, at least in the Zhenfu army, even those senior generals who usually have a higher level of vision also look up to Lin Fu.
"Jinzhong Admiral's Mansion, Deputy Commander of Jinzhong Qinwang Division's Dangkou Camp, Deputy Lieutenant Zhenwei has met Mr. Lin!" Wu Tian saluted. Although he was a sixth-rank military attache, this dynasty has always respected culture and suppressed martial arts, and he was a seventh-rank military officer.
The supervisor was even higher than the captains of Zhenwei and Zhaowu, not to mention that Lin Fu was the commander of the three thousand generals of Jiangdong Left Army, and Wu Tian was just the general of the remnants of Jinzhong, so it was normal for him to take the initiative to salute Lin Fu.
"Wu Lieutenant, please take a seat quickly. You are welcome. I am looking forward to having someone from you come over every day. This is Cao Zi'ang, the commander of the second battalion of Jiangdong Zuo Army. This is Sun Shangwang, the clerk of the Central Accountant. He is from Hejian
People from Fucang County..." Lin Fu warmly greeted Wu Tian to sit down. He didn't know much about the situation of Jinzhong soldiers, but according to the rules, only those with great achievements or elite troops in the 600-soldier camp would be given
The official name of the camp is more likely to be both. Lin Fu thought that the remnants of Jinzhong soldiers in Wokou Village should be an elite force.
It is impossible for the local Wuzhai to accommodate broken troops or rioting troops. Those who can escape into the Wuzhai are usually the remnants of a relatively complete organization. Later, the broken troops may be accommodated and reorganized to strengthen the defensive capabilities of the Wuzhai.
Not only were the remnants of the Jinzhong soldiers in the Wokou stronghold able to break out of the siege with a relatively complete formation in the Battle of Gaoyang, but the Jinzhong soldiers who held on to the stronghold to this day cannot be considered weak.
Lin Fu was extremely eager for Wu Tian's arrival.
Because he had not been trusted before, Lin Fu did not know the situation of Qingxian or the few Wu villages still holding strong in Jinhai. The remnants of the Jinzhong army were in Qingxian. How many troops were left in Jinhai, their organization and deployment, their armor and arrows?
It is unclear whether there are close connections between Ya and several villages.
Even if Lin Fu wanted to join forces to suppress the Nahe Xiongqi tribe, or to contain more captive cavalry in Jinhai to relieve the pressure on Jinan Prefecture and Gyeonggi Province, he would not be able to complete these intentions without trust.
Wuokou Village took the initiative to send people over to contact him, so how could Lin Fu be unhappy?
Lin Fu took the initiative to introduce the situation of the left army in Jiangdong to Wu Tian in order to win the trust of the remnants of the Jinzhong army. This was not the time to keep a low profile. Lin Fu asked with concern: "Is there enough food and medicine in Guokou? If so?
There is a shortage, so I will move the soldiers on the shore north to cover the transportation of some parts from the ship to Wokou Village..."
"Wu Tiandai, the defeated 700 remnant soldiers in Wukou, thank you for your kindness..." Wu Tian hurriedly saluted. One of the reasons why he could come over was that supplies in Wukou Village were beginning to be in short supply. The daily rations were limited and could not last more than a few days.
.
Only then did Wu Tian know that after the great victory in Cangnan, the Jiangdong Left Army had achieved a great victory, wiping out nearly a thousand soldiers and winning nearly a thousand heads. Since they followed Yang Zhaoqi, even though Gao Yang suffered such a heavy setback, his heart remained the same.
The proud Wu Tianlai was greatly shocked in his heart.
If a great victory includes an element of luck, the Jiangdong Left Army achieved two thousand-level victories with 3,000 newly recruited soldiers. It can definitely be said to be the most outstanding army in fighting against the Eastern Lu in the past ten years.
The easiest way to impress soldiers and military attaches is to show real achievements. Compared with scholars, military men are ruder and less polite, but rudeness also has the advantage of being rude, that is, there are not so many tricks.
General Wu Tian also told Lin Fu in detail about the situation of Jinhai and Qingxian still holding on to the villages. Jinzhong Qin Wangshi's admiral, counselor, guard and other senior generals were almost wiped out in the battle of Gaoyang and captured.
There should be quite a few, but at this time there is no news of generals rebelling - this situation is very likely to happen. Wu Tian and others are also worried that this will affect the future of the remnants of the Jinzhong army. After all, there is no one in the DPRK.
People will speak for these remnants of the Jinzhong Army——The total number of Jinzhong Army remnants still holding on to the villages in Jinhai and Qingxian is about 3,000, with the three villages of Wuokou, Changlu and Qingqi having the largest number of people.
The total strength of the villages is almost 2,000. The three villages are not far from each other. Not only are they closely connected with each other, but they can also cooperate to fight against the enemy.
After Wu Tian returned to Wokou Village, Wei Zhonglong still doubted Lin Fu's intentions, but he could not refuse to accept the food and grass support from the Jiangdong Left Army. For those who did not know the behind-the-scenes of the court battle, they only pinned their hatred for Gaoyang's defeat on Hao Zongcheng and the Donghu people.
The lower-level military attachés and ordinary Jin soldiers welcomed the Jiangdong Left Army who had twice wiped out all the Japanese troops and boldly advanced into Yannan.
Wokou Village was originally a fortress, with only about 300 to 400 people from the Zhou clan living there. There was enough food stored after the autumn harvest. However, the number of villagers who took refuge in Wokou Village after the war exceeded 3,000 officers and soldiers. Although the number of people who took refuge was more than 3,000.
The villagers also brought some grain, but the key was that the Jinzhong soldiers brought in by Yang Yihang, Wu Tian, and Wei Zhonglong consumed the most of the grain stock, and the grain stock in Wokou Village soon fell into an unsustainable dilemma.
The Whirlpool River has nothing to do with the Whirlpool River, the main tributary in the middle and upper reaches of the Huaihe River. The Whirlpool River is a river in the southern part of Jinhai County. The mouth of the river is only more than 200 paces wide. It is not a big river, but it first emerged more than a hundred years ago.
During the sea-to-cao period, the Wuishui River connecting the Wei River was the most important sea-connecting channel in the northern part of Hejian Prefecture. The grain transported by sea ships was moved to the Tianjin Sea and exchanged for river boats to enter the Wei River, and then the Wei River entered the counties of Gyeonggi Province.
, this last section of the waterway only lasts more than two hundred miles.
Wokou Village is located at the entrance to the sea on the north bank of Wushui. You can also see the grand scene of the rise of the sea canal more than a hundred years ago from the stone seawall, which is comparable to the size of a small town. It is a pity that the rise of the sea canal was not completed.
It was abolished in a short period of time, and the Wushui River channel has been abandoned for a long time without any management, and its navigation capacity is very limited. However, Wokouzhai is still an important transfer station for coastal counties in northern Shandong and Yannan regions to enter the capital by sea.
It's just that the war caused the prosperity of Wokouzhai Town to disappear for a while.
Through the cover of the two wings, and in the dim light at dawn, Lin Fu transported thousands of stones of rice noodles and tens of thousands of pigs, sheep, cattle and horses to Wokou Village through mules, horses, camels and wheelbarrows.
Meat and a large amount of medicinal materials, arrows and other supplies.
All nice words are false, and real material assistance is the most real and reliable. A large amount of materials were transported into Wokou Village, even Wei Zhonglong, who had the most serious resistance to Lin Fu.
He kept silent and said nothing.
When Yannan fell, except for the stronghold of Wuzhai, the grain and grass in villages and towns were looted several times by the Donglu. Wuokou Village could obtain very few supplies from the outside. After Yang Yihang, Wuzhong, and Wei Zhonglong entered Wuokou Village,
He took over everything in the village without hesitation, and the food and grass were strictly controlled. The ordinary villagers were initially given half a catty of rations a day, but now it has been reduced to the level of one meal of porridge a day. Some pretty women in the village are not willing to give up.
He was starving, and in order to get half a catty of rations from the soldiers to eat a full meal, he would often take off his pants and have sex without shame.
Wei Zhonglong also tried to turn a blind eye to the dirty things done by the soldiers below. Who knows the way out after this battle?
Even during wartime, when there was a grain shortage in Yannan, the capital, the price of rice was as high as twenty or thirty yuan per catty, and the price of meat was astonishingly expensive. The Jiangdong Left Army provided nearly tens of thousands of taels of silver to Wokou Village at one time.
Wu Tian contacted Wu Tian in the past and did not mention the recruitment at all. How could Wei Zhonglong refuse people thousands of miles away? At least the Jiangdong Left Army expressed full sincerity about the alliance. As for where to go after the war, that can only
We could wait until after the war to discuss it, so we agreed with Yang Yihang, Wu Tian and others and invited Lin Fu to the stronghold for a talk.
At the same time, Changlu, Qingqi and other villages also sent representatives to Wokou to meet Lin Fu.
It was as if a great victory had been won and a great festival was celebrated in Wokou Village. Ordinary soldiers and people regarded Lin Fu's arrival as a savior sent from heaven.
Looking at the villagers who were swollen from hunger and scrawny, the soldiers----soldiers were better off. After all, to ensure the soldiers' combat stamina, the rations were much higher than those of ordinary villagers, but they were also very limited----Lin
Fu also couldn't bear it in his heart. Not to mention the inland Wuzhai, Wukou Village was only two miles away from the sea wall. Especially in the middle and late stages, the blockade of Tianjin Sea by the Luqi was not serious. It was completely accessible from the west of the capital or the northeast of Shandong.
Conditions were met to transport supplies to Guoshui, but the officials of the Manchu Dynasty seemed to deliberately not see that there were still remnants of Jinzhong soldiers holding on here.
Hao Zongcheng, Hao Zongcheng, when walking into the Wooshui Village, Lin Fu was muttering this name. Before they met, he made another big enemy. Lin Fu was also very impressed by his ability to make enemies and get into trouble.
