Lin Xuwen rushed to Jinhai. He didn't show off because he was the eldest son of the Lin family and a dignified fourth-rank censor of Youdu. Instead, he told Lin Fu straight to the point, "I'm coming to Hejian Mansion."
, in cooperation with the Jiangdong Left Army..."
Lin Xuwen has been an official for so many years, and he knows how to advance and retreat. Although he has the title of supervising the troops of Hejian Prefecture, except for a healthy servant who came with him, he has no soldiers.
The government has been crippled, and there is no clue to contact and organize the local forces in Hejian Prefecture.
Without the support of Lin Fu and Jiangdong Zuojun, Lin Xuwen's title of also supervising the military preparations of Hejian Prefecture would be an empty title and a useless title.
Who will share the military merits? Lin Fu cannot stay in Hejian Mansion. He actively fought in Hejian Mansion, and the connections and prestige he accumulated cannot be taken away. Who should be left to him? It is not true to leave it to Lin Xuwen.
Ensure that his influence on Hejian Mansion can last forever.
People like Sun Shangwang were following the Jiangdong Left Army to fight against the Japanese cavalry, but it was hard to say whether they would stay or go after the war. The Jiangdong Left Army had not yet had a formal sequence, and it was hard to say whether it would be reduced or not after the war, and it was impossible to retain so many.
Civilian officials; on the other hand, Sun Shangwang and others were probably unable to stay in their homeland, and preferred to stay and rebuild their homeland.
If Sun Shangwang finally chooses to stay, Lin Fu also hopes to give him an official position, and he can only rely on Lin Xuwen for this.
Lin Fu had been thinking about the fate of the remnants of the Jinzhong army. Lin Xuwen's arrival suddenly opened his mind.
However, the issue of the remaining Jinzhong Army involves a wide range of issues. Zhang Xie and Tang Haoxin may not be willing to conflict with Hao Zongcheng and the forces of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the sake of the remaining Jinzhong Army. It is far from the time to mention this. At this time, the Jinzhong Army
Only when the remaining troops accumulate more military merit can they seize the initiative to solve problems.
At this time, Sun Shangwang and Yang Zhishan returned.
Yang Zhishan's face looked ugly, and Lin Fu asked with concern: "The sea is very rough, is Mr. Yang feeling unwell? Why don't I ask someone to inform Wokou Village and prepare a yard for Mr. Yang to stay in the village?"
"No need to go to such trouble," Yang Zhishan said with a forced smile, "I'm not afraid of Mr. Lin's jokes. I was shocked by the Jiangdong Left Army's record just now. Two officials are there to check. I'll come here to take a breather..."
"Hey, Mr. Yang, take a breath here. I'll ask someone to make you a cup of tea. This is the local tea I brought from Dongyang..." Lin Fu smiled slightly and asked someone to make Yang Zhi a cup of tea.
When assessing military merit, the imperial court placed the most emphasis on obtaining military merit. After all, military merit of a grade is the most difficult to falsely report.
Among the many military merits, there are many differences in the assessment and evaluation of military merits for total annihilation, defeat, and repulse of different degrees of victory. Total annihilation is the first level, and the evaluation basis for total annihilation military merits is naturally based on the level obtained.
When cleaning up the battlefield after every battle, no matter how mutilated the corpses of the captives were, the auxiliary soldiers had to cut off their heads. Especially in the battle of Xiaobotou Village, many corpses of the captives had been burned by fire, and their heads had to be cut off and counted.
More than 2,300 heads of various shapes, sealed and pickled with quicklime, filled a cabin. Anyone who looked at them would have nightmares at night. No wonder Yang Zhishan looked ugly. Two officials from the Ministry of War came with him.
What's even more unlucky is that even if they want to be lazy, they don't have the manpower to replace them, so they can only bite the bullet and investigate there.
In addition to their crowns and clothing, the Donglu are also somewhat different from the Han people in appearance. For example, their skin color is darker, their noses are pointed, and their temples are curly. It is difficult to kill good people and gain merit, at least more difficult than polishing silver or gold medals.
Yang Zhishan had seen the level of that cabin and no longer doubted that the Jiangdong Left Army had achieved two great victories, so the specific investigation was naturally left to the officials below.
"Lin Duqian, I really admire you and Jiangdong Zuojun. I won't tell you lies in front of Lin Duqian." Yang Zhishan sat down, picked up the steaming tea cup, and said, "I've been here recently.
In the past ten years, the gold medals and silver medals seized by the border troops are not necessarily much more than what you gained from your two great victories. Do you know why?"
"Please give me your advice, Mr. Yang." Lin Fu stood up and saluted Yang Zhishan and said. Yang Zhishan is the head of the sixth-grade military department. The military department has a great say in the fate of Jiangdong Zuojun. Lin Fu naturally has a very correct attitude towards Yang Zhishan.
Yang Zhishan blew away the tea foam floating on the water and said: "It's not that the border troops have killed less Japanese soldiers than the Jiangdong Left Army over the years, but the vast majority of the border troops fought against the Japanese soldiers and defended the battle. Defending.
Even if the enemy in the city wins a great victory and the soldiers are forced to retreat, the soldiers can calmly collect the corpses of those killed in the battle and take them away. This is why the frontier troops often get good results and win small ranks, silver medals, and gold medals. It is even more rare.
I have never seen this gold medal at least since I joined the Ministry of War's Staff Division, and the Jiangdong Left Army got two at once..."
"The two victories of the Jiangdong Left Army were such a fluke," Lin Fu said. "It was also Prime Minister Zhang, Tang Gong, Gu Shijun, and Cheng Shilang who planned the strategy and gave good guidance..." He knew that Yang Zhishan was reminding him of the Jiangdong Left Army's achievements.
Being too dazzling may not be a good thing for the Jiangdong Zuojun. Yang Zhishan may not have bad intentions in reminding him, but Gu Wuchen is responsible for the creation of the Jiangdong Zuojun. He simply brought Zhang Xie, Tang Haoxin, and Cheng Yuqian together. This military merit has
What cannot be reported?
Even though this would make the military jealous, seeing the situation in the three Yannan mansions, Lin Fu wanted to slap the military in the face. How could he care about the face of the generals who suppressed the army? At this time, although the emperor asked the Minister of War, Governor Zhou Zongxian
The King of Qin in the World waited until the captive cavalry retreated, and when the responsibilities began to be investigated, how could Zhou Zongxian, who did not wear the same pants as the Chu Party, remain in the position of Minister of War?
Yang Zhishan saw that Lin Fu was very sharp and pretended not to understand his hint, so he stopped trying to persuade him directly.
Lin Fu used the horsemeat trade as an excuse to attract businessmen from Dengzhou area to Jinhai to do business, making them the logistical support for the Jiangdong Left Army in Jinhai. Many of them fled from Hejian Prefecture to Dengzhou to avoid troops.
The wealthy gentry and merchants who were in trouble were also willing to send ships to do business with the Jiangdong Left Army, and by the way, support the Jiangdong Left Army in fighting in Hejian Prefecture.
Lin Fu asked Sun Shangwang to invite more than a dozen gentry and wealthy merchants from Hejian Prefecture and Jinhai gentry who were escaping from the war in Wokou Village to watch the battle aboard the Dongyang. He wanted to introduce these people to Lin Xuwen.
Among the ships heading north this time, there were four thousand-stone ships borrowed from the Lin family. With the support of ships from Dengzhou, and there were enough ships here, Lin Fu directly transferred a thousand-stone ship to Lin Xuwen to serve as the ship. The Lin family
There were nearly a hundred shipwrights in the warehouse. The sailors came over and stayed with the ship for more than two months, and became familiar with the operation of the ship. Lin Fu assigned forty handymen to him and lent him a team of elite soldiers.
He acted as a guard and allocated two thousand taels of silver and twenty horses to him.
When Lin Xuwen wanted to sneak over from enemy-controlled areas, he kept everything simple and brought almost nothing with him except some gold leaves.
As soon as Lin Xuwen arrived in Jinhai, his position as censor of the right capital and supervising the preparation of troops in Hejian Prefecture was immediately strengthened. Lin Xuwen was very satisfied with Lin Fu's arrangement, thinking that after all, the same clan clans were better than those in the countryside. The party is more worthy of relying on.
In any case, even if Lin Fu is an independent sect, he must still be considered a branch of the Lin clan when tracing back to his origins.
The fact that the clan can branch out is precisely a manifestation of the further expansion of the clan's power and influence. At least in terms of the interests of the Lin clan, there is no substantial conflict between Lin Fu and Lin Xuwen.
When Shanglinli fell, Lin Fu stepped forward at the critical moment and withdrew the Lin family from Shanglinli to avoid trouble in Jiangning. He helped the Lin family gain a foothold at the mouth of Jiangning and supported Lin Tingli in fighting Shen Rong in Dongyang to gain Gu Wuchen's trust and responsibility. The formation and training of Dongyang Xiangyong also prompted a large number of Lin family and Shanglinli children to become the backbone of Dongyang Xiangyong's military attachés, which led to the reconciliation of the conflicts between the Lin and Gu families, and allowed Lin Xuwen to gain the support of the Chu party when he became an official in Yanjing.
Lin Fu safeguarded and promoted the interests of the Lin clan in many matters. At least after the fall of Shanglinli, the power of the Lin clan not only did not weaken, but benefited from Lin Fu and was further strengthened; the most intuitive expression Lin Tingli actually controlled Dongyang Xiangyong, and Lin Xuwen was able to serve as the censor of the right capital and supervise the preparation of troops in Hejian Prefecture this time.
Lin Tingxun died and was buried in Jiangning. Lin Xuwen did not return to Jiangning to observe filial piety because he was satisfied with Lin Fu, Lin Tingli and others' arrangements for the Lin family, and also recognized Jiangning's various actions in supporting Lin Fu in terms of resources.
When Nahe Xiongqi withdrew from Wuokou Village, he sent sentry cavalry to contact the left and right wings to recover them in time. He withdrew to Wangdengtai Mountain, but no one from the two cavalry units withdrew, so he felt that the matter was getting complicated. He mounted his horse and climbed up. The king ascended to the top of the mountain and looked on both sides. The two cavalry units were already fighting against Jiangdong's left army...
The infantry of the Jiangdong Left Army is formed in a basic unit of sixty soldiers. Southeast of Wang Dengtai Mountain, the two battalions of the Jiangdong Left Army are 1,200 soldiers. Looking around, you can clearly see the two battalions of the Jiangdong Left Army. The army seemed to have twenty huge gleaming fish scales covering the gray and cold ground. Northwest of Wangdengtai Mountain, the third battalion of the Jiangdong Left Army had abandoned their baggage in the wild, as if thirty huge scales were swimming towards Wangdengtai Mountain.
If you look carefully for a moment, you will find that even if the Jiangdong Left Army formed a formation with sixty soldiers as the basic unit, after the formation was rushed by the cavalry, it would not cause a crushing rout. A whole large scale would appear. Spread out smaller scales, and these smaller scales take five pawns as the basic unit.
When fighting other Southern Dynasty soldiers, as long as the cavalry is used to break up the entire formation of the Southern Dynasty soldiers and cut them back and forth, a crushing rout can often be formed. This experience cannot be used at all in fighting the Jiangdong Left Army. The cavalry rushed into the infantry array of the Jiangdong Left Army. Not only was it unable to cause a crushing rout, but it caused the speed of its own cavalry to suddenly drop and fell into the enemy's encirclement.
After the two cavalry units were deployed, they were entangled by Jiangdong's left army. They lost ground in advance and retreat. They lost their advantage in strength and mobility.
Na He Xiongqi had thought about this kind of formation battle of Jiangdong Zuojun for a long time before. To deal with Jiangdong Zuojun, he would either use the same formation method to organize armored soldiers, or suddenly dispatch heavy armored cavalry to attack.
Only then did Nahe Xiongqi realize that he had been too conservative when allocating his troops. To the northwest, Timur led more than 1,500 light cavalry, and the left army in the east of the Yangtze River had more than 1,800 infantry cavalry. To the southeast, there were more than 900 light cavalry.
The Jiangdong Left Army has more than 1,200 infantry and cavalry, and the distribution of troops is too balanced, resulting in neither side forming an overwhelming advantage. Even with the advantage of all soldiers being horses, the Jiangdong Left Army is equipped with armor, crossbows, and strength.
The advantages are suppressed.
The powerful crossbows of the Jiangdong Left Army almost ignored the leather armor on the Qingqi. A distance of 150 to 200 steps could cause a large number of casualties here. It was impossible to maintain a complete charging formation when charging, so
This makes the impact on the infantry formation insufficient. The enemy's flying chariots provide enough barriers for the infantry formation when the cavalry is hedging, further limiting the intensity of the assault. Look at the diagonal protrusion, which is seven or eight feet high.
Both men and horses will be afraid to avoid the spear formation. Only the best horses and best riders can jump into the enemy's chariot and fly behind the enemy's formation during the charge. But such riders are also in Donghu.
One of a hundred. Due to the huge disadvantage in range, the stray shooting tactics that have been tried and tested in the past have completely failed.
After the battle between the two sides, I stood on Wangdengtai Mountain and observed with the naked eye that the casualties of the light cavalry here were obviously more than the armored soldiers of the Jiangdong Left Army.
He Xiongqi thought for a moment, then ordered his deputies behind him, saying: "Gather all the armored cavalry, gallop to the northwest, attack the enemy formation, let Timur get rid of the entanglement with Jiangdong's left army, and let him come back to me."
..." The remnants of the Jinzhong army are only five or six miles away from here, and it only takes half an hour to march here. In such a short period of time, he was unable to concentrate his forces to defeat any of the enemy soldiers on both sides. He had to consider a breakout.
Something happened.
He Xiongqi could only muster a hundred or so armored cavalry in his hands. It would be easy to help Timur break out, but the armored cavalry and horses were all wearing armor. If they galloped over here and collided with the enemy formation, their horsepower would be almost exhausted.
, it would be difficult to rush back with Timur's troops. There is no way. To break through, it only makes sense to use more than a hundred armored cavalry to replace the more than a thousand light cavalry led by Timur. But from Wuokou Village, the fire started.
The pillar of smoke made him realize that Lin Fu should have other arrangements. But there was no way. Lin Fu had already formed a military advantage over them around Wangdentai Mountain. Na He Xiongqi could only lead more than 500 cavalry in person.
