(Second update, I woke up too early today, I really want to sleep now, please give me a red ticket)

Yue Lengqiu sent a letter in the name of the Governor of Qinwang Division on the Southern Front, requesting Jiangdong Zuojun to march westward, waiting for opportunities to recover Jiyin, Linyi, Dezhou and other cities, and follow up to harass the Japanese soldiers, looking for opportunities to continue to annihilate some Japanese soldiers. Yellow River

Although the floodplain area formed by the breach is not very vast, Qinwang Division on the southern line of Jinan has blocked the road to the north. It has to go east along the south bank of the Yellow River to regain Zhangqiu first, and then detour to Yangxinlai in order to bypass the flood.

pan-region.

Lin Fu could ignore Yue Lengqiu's order as bullshit. The battlefield was changing rapidly, and "the general will be outside, and the emperor's orders will not be given." What's more, Yue Lengqiu was only in the name of temporary governor. Since Yue Lengqiu led the troops to regain Jinan, Lin Fu

Fu's next step is to send his troops northward to support Jinhai and prevent several villages in the Wokou area from being pulled out by the soldiers when they leave the Jingdong area.

However, Yue Lengqiu issued an additional military order, requiring Shaowu's remnant army to immediately depart from Zhangqiu and return to Jinan.

Geng Quanshan, Chen Dingbang and others were all generals directly under the rule of Dongmin. Without the protection of a prestigious and powerful general like Lu Jingyan, they would not be able to fight against Yue Lengqiu.

Jiangdong Zuojun and Shao Wu's remnant army were not under each other's control. In response to Yue Lengqiu's military order, Lin Fu could not protect Shao Wu's remnant army.

The sky outside has become clear, but there are still huge candles burning in the tent, and the candlelight reflects on everyone's faces, flickering on and off.

"Your Majesty, please allow us to discuss matters in a secret room." Geng Quanshan said.

The camp was divided into an inner and an outer room. The outer room was the meeting hall and the inner room was the rest room. Lin Fu asked Geng Quanshan and Chen Dingbang to follow him to the inner room.

"Sir, you are the only one who can save Shao Wujun now!" Walking into the inner room, Geng Quanshan and Chen Dingbang knelt on the ground.

"You must go to Li Bingbu immediately - as long as you don't go to Jinan and have Yang Xin's merits in defending the war, Yue Lengqiu will not be able to do anything to you," Lin Fu thought that only Li Zhuo could protect Geng Quanshan, Chen Dingbang and others at this time.

, said, "Suppress the Hongzepu bandits, the Li Military Department will use you..." Zuo Shangrong died, and the Changhuai Town Army was destroyed in Haozhou. Even if there was no further news, Lin Fu knew that Li Zhuo must be in charge at this time.

Jiangdong military campaign to prevent the situation in Jiangdong from deteriorating further.

"If we go to Li Shuai, we will only create big trouble for Li Shuai. Besides, our life and death are not trivial matters," Geng Quanshan said while kneeling on the ground. "Yue Lengqiu cannot publicly chop off my and Captain Chen's heads, but

Yue Lengqiu could have done it to send Shaowu's remnant army to death! Colonel Chen and I would go to Jinan to resume our duties and give Yue Lengqiu an explanation. However, Shao Wujun only had these brothers left and managed to survive. We

We cannot take them to Jinan to die, so please take them in! Just treat them as if they all died in Yangxin!

"Okay," Lin Fu thought for a moment, then agreed decisively and said, "He said that Shao Wu's army had been broken up by me before the war and reorganized into the Jiangdong Left Army to fight, and Yue Lengqiu couldn't do anything to me. I'll take my place first.

You take good care of the remaining generals of Shao Wujun, and you go to Jinan first to deal with Yue Lengqiu..."

"There is also Chu Zheng. He is the commander of the captain's personal guard battalion. If he went with us to Jinan, he might be killed by Yue Lengqiu on the spot. When he was ambushed by the soldiers in Jihe, Chu Zheng was already disabled while protecting the captain.

Yizhi, the captain asked him to keep his name anonymous before he died, and also hoped that the Lord could take him in." Geng Quanshan said.

If the general dies, the guards will all be killed if they don't fight. If the commander of the guard camp doesn't die, his clan will be killed! Shao Wujun's fight was too miserable. Chu Zheng may not be held accountable for killing the clan, but don't think that Yue Lengqiu has a reasonable excuse.

I will save his life next time.

Lin Fu nodded and said, "I will make arrangements for him."

************

After everything was discussed, Lin Fu asked people to invite Song Bo to the camp and said to him: "Governor Yue wants our army to march westward, pursue the captives, and recover Linyi, Jihe and other cities. After careful consideration, we thought that the captives

The soldiers will leave from Jingdong and should attack Jinhai with determination and attack its flanks. I am determined to lead the left army from Jiangdong to the north to Jinhai. Please ask the Secretary of the Song Dynasty to explain something to Governor Yue on my behalf..."

"Song knows." Song Bo said, thinking that Yue Lengqiu didn't expect Lin Fu to act according to his orders.

Lin Fu added: "When the remnants of Shaowu Town fled to Yangxin, there were only six or seven hundred people left. In order to ensure the strength of Yangxin's defense, I had already dispersed the remnants of Shaowu and reorganized them into the Jiangdong Left Army, except for Geng and Chen.

Wei Wei, the Shaowu Town Army no longer exists. If Governor Yue insists that the remnants of the Shaowu Town Army go to Jinan to resume their duties, then Governor Yue please be a little patient. After the war, I will pull out the generals of Shaowu Town one by one and return them to the army.

Governor Yue."

"..." Song Bo glanced at Lin Fu in surprise. Unexpectedly, he decided to protect the remnants of Shaowu.

However, this excuse is difficult to refute. It is not at the expense of weakening the combat power of Jiangdong's left army to forcefully extract the remnants of Shao Wu's army. If Yue Lengqiu really wants to break up and harden his attitude, Lin Fu can bite him to death and not let go.

.This lawsuit was taken to the Ministry of War, but it was useless. The people were eaten by the Jiangdong Left Army. How could they be vomited out again?

What's more, the Jiangdong Left Army's military exploits are so brilliant, and Jiangdong Left Army must always be favored in everything.

Song Bo was only responsible for delivering messages. If Lin Fu had any excuses, he was only responsible for carrying them back to Jinan. He would not have any disputes with Lin Fu and behaved well in everything. He also knew that Yue Lengqiu was trying to steal credit.

, which would make the generals of the Jiangdong Zuojun who had really fought hard and made great achievements very disdainful. He was also helpless about this, but he did not expect the Jiangdong Zuojun to be very close to him.

The matter was thus decided. Geng Quanshan and Chen Dingbang would go with Song Bo to Jinan to return to Yue Lengqiu. They would leave first with only a small number of personal guards, and the others would march north with the Jiangdong Left Army.

******************

The Jinzhong Army led by Zhou Tong was not controlled by Yue Lengqiu at all. Naturally, there was no doubt that he would follow Lin Fu to the north. However, the issue of the Jinzhong Army's way out was also put on the agenda. Zhou Tong was also frowning. Yue Lengqiu was

A narrow-minded person, Hao Zongcheng is not a broad-minded person.

Before the whole army set out to march north, Lin Fu had other things to do. He invited Zhang Jinxian, the magistrate of Yangxin County, and Cheng Weiyuan, the county captain, and said directly: "I hope that the captured civilians will be dismissed immediately, and each person will be given a cold coat and food.

Twenty kilograms and a thousand copper coins. From now on, you can stay with them wherever you go. If you stay in Yangxin, Yangxin will also treat you as a refugee seeking refuge from disaster, not as a prisoner of the people. In addition, I will escort more than a thousand rebels.

They went to Jinhai..."

When Yue Lengqiu led his army to march north, he must borrow a passage from Yang Xin. Lin Fu would not be so stupid as to leave captured civilians and rebels to Yue Lengqiu to behead them as his military exploits. If these things were not handled well,

He cannot leave Yangxin immediately.

"We will all do as Mr. Lin wants." Zhang Jinxian and Cheng Weiyuan were extremely disgusted with Yue Lengqiu, who had fled before the war and came to claim credit after the war. They knew best who was the biggest contributor to Yang Xin's survival. , If Yue Lengqiu had stayed in Shandong, the situation in Shandong would not have been so bad.

"I asked Lieutenant Chu and the personal guards who remained behind Captain Lu about their intentions. Lieutenant Lu's coffin is in Yangxin and they cannot follow us north. They have to stay and guard Captain Lu's coffin," Lin Fu said, "I hope Master Zhang and Master Cheng will take care of me..."

"Can Yang Xin keep them?" Zhang Jinxian asked.

Lin Fu knew what Zhang Jinxian meant. Yang Xin currently had more than a thousand troops on the ground. Although they had been tested by war, their training and combat experience were far inferior to those of the regular army. If Chu Zheng and other officers and veterans could be retained, they would be able to prepare local troops. The enhancement will be significant.

Chu Zheng and others were all Lu Jingyan's personal guards. Lu Jingyan died in battle. Even if they showed mercy outside the law, Chu Zheng and others would at least be sentenced to exile. Zhang Jinxian, Cheng Weiyuan and others were representatives of the local forces in Yangxin. Besides, the war was in chaos, so they naturally had Able to protect more than ten or twenty people, Lin Fu nodded and said: "I have to ask their own opinion on this. If Yang Xin can keep them, I have no objection."

From the performance of Jiangdong Left Army, Jinzhong Army, and Shao Wu Army in the city defense battle for more than ten days, Zhang Jinxian and Cheng Weiyuan knew that keeping Chu Zheng and others was a very beneficial thing for the local area. Even if the matter was exposed, they would be prosecuted. But for the sake of local interests and in order to welcome the invasion of Japanese soldiers next time, it is appropriate to take these risks.

Zhang Jinxian and Cheng Weiyuan did not delay any longer and immediately prepared according to Lin Fu's wishes.

Lin Fu called the generals and told Comrade Zhou: "As we escort the rebels northward, they are likely to encounter harassment by a small group of rebels. I have decided that you will lead the troops first and serve as the vanguard to cover the left front wing of our army. The forward exploration distance is Twenty miles is appropriate, and then the scouts should be released for about ten miles..."

He also said to Zhou Pu, "The formation of the surrendering troops heading north is a big problem. I have decided to immediately issue spears, spears, swords, shields and other ordnance to the surrendering troops. You can transfer a hundred capable veterans from the army to temporarily serve as captains of the capital." , flag head. During the march, you and Zhao Qingshan will lead the troops to cover the left and right flanks. I will personally lead the remaining Shao Wu troops and form the central army together; Ning Zechen will lead the troops to cover the left rear wing."

All the military attachés who captured prisoners and surrendered troops were beheaded, and the organizational system for capturing prisoners and surrendering troops was completely broken up. The distribution of weapons and temporary formations were not a big problem, but the morale and combat effectiveness of such a temporary army were so weak. If you become a scum, it is very likely that the soldiers will be defeated by the enemy cavalry. The most important thing to consider at the moment is that if there is an encounter with the enemy soldiers on the way, these defeated soldiers cannot be allowed to attack the formation. It is better to cover the inside and bluff. Okay. In this way, all the sick and wounded will be moved to Zhulong Bay to board the ship. Their strength of troops heading north along the coastline will roughly reach 4,000.

Lin Fu asked all the generals to prepare and try to leave Yangxin and go north before dark.

The sky is clear today, and there is likely to be a good moonlight at night. We can march at night and force our way to the north of Cang County. There will be scattered docks to rely on, and the march will be relatively safer. Although the wind direction is unfavorable and it is not easy for the ship to travel north, but The ships heading south from Jinhai Sea will also appear in the waters around Cangxian County tomorrow afternoon.

At dusk, everything was ready, and the wounded and sick had moved to Zhulong Bay before noon to board the ship. By this time, they were probably already at Zhulong Bay. The scouts and scouts were also sent out twenty miles away. Lin Fu turned over and got on his horse.

Zhou Tong was sent to lead the cavalry first. He, Zhou Pu, and Zhao Qingshan also led their troops to break out of the camp at any time. Leaving Ning, the ministers were behind the scenes, and many people in the city gathered in the north city to see them off.

Looking at the people all over the city kneeling on the ground, Lin Fu also hardened his heart and said nothing. Yuan Jianhai and others stood on the upper floor of the north city to see them off. The thin body of the little princess Yuan Yan looked at a tree at the top of the city from a distance.

Lin Fu smiled slightly at the bright spring flowers, bowed to Zhang Jinxian, Cheng Weiyuan and other Yangxin officials and gentry who were seeing him off from the city, then reined in the reins and turned the horse's head north.

As soon as Lin Fu's army moved out, the civilians who had been guarding Zhulongpo followed them.

Although Yangxin provided them with food, clothing and travel expenses, most of their hometowns still fell into enemy hands. They had not been liberated and had nowhere to go.

Some people who thought they had connections stayed in Yangxin until the war was completely over before returning to their hometowns. Most of them were originally poor tenant farmers. After this catastrophe, their families were either taken away or killed, or they fled to a foreign land and were feared to be separated.

It's hard to see each other again in this life. Most of them have already lost their families. What's the use of a cold coat, twenty kilograms of grain, and a thousand copper coins?

Besides, they were also worried that staying at Yangxin would bring liquidation to the local government.

Although Jiangdong Zuojun captured them, they provided food and clothing for the past two days, and today Yang Xin also sent them cold clothes, dry food and travel expenses. In the hearts of the drowning people, Jiangdong Zuojun and Jiangdong Zuojun's commander Lin Fu are undoubtedly

It is a life-saving ship in the rough seas. Apart from following Jiangdong Zuojun northward, what other good way out is there?

So many civilians formed a wave of refugees following behind, which seriously affected the marching speed and formation. Lin Fu initially sent people to drive them away twice, but these people dispersed and reunited, and followed the army.

Lin Fu could not ask Zhou Tong to lead his troops to Jinhai first. For a small village like Wukou, the arrival of two hundred elites was a very powerful support; he transferred Ning Zechen and Zhao Qingshan's troops to the left wing to cover the army.

, he, Zhou Pu, and Ao Canghai led the army and slowly marched toward Jinhai along with four to five thousand dispersed civilians.
