On New Year's Eve, I wish my brothers and sisters a Happy New Year.
******************************
"Yue Lengqiu is a sensible person..." Song Jiayi Lin Fu sat beside the desk, looking at the letter sent by Tang Xitai overnight, and commented.
Although Yue Lengqiu intended to come to Yuzhang to discuss the defeat of Congyang and the war at Jinghu, the estrangement accumulated over the years and the obstacles to each other's status actually made it impossible for Lin Fu and Yue Lengqiu to fully communicate.
Tang Xitai traveled from Luzhou to Yuzhang and traveled with Yue Lengqiu. Of course, it was Lin Fu's arrangement, and he deliberately wanted to touch Yue Lengqiu's feet to decide whether the Chizhou army would stay or go. Tang Xitai spent the day with Yue Lengqiu.
Qiu accompanied him on the journey and stayed at the inn for the night. He excerpted the conversation during the day and sent a fast horseman to ride into Yuzhang first and presented it to Lin Fu.
Tang Xitai's secret letters were densely packed with Yue Lengqiu's discussions about Yan and Hu affairs. Song Jia read them with great interest, which also shows that Yue Lengqiu had a profound understanding of current affairs and was one of the few people in the world.
Lin Fu has never denied Yue Lengqiu's ability. Yue Lengqiu's deep understanding of Yanhu was something he learned from his letters.
It has been more than five years since Yan Hu invaded the north. Henan and Shandong are in a tug of war, making it difficult to manage. However, Yan Hu is still operating quite effectively in Jinzhong, and Yan Hu's military and political structure is very different from that of South Vietnam.
, making Yanhu’s ability in military mobilization very outstanding.
Yanhu gradually implemented the military household system in the north, but the military household system practiced by Yanhu was fundamentally different from the old system of the Yue Dynasty.
Under the old system of the Yue Dynasty, military households were established to farm fields and recruit soldiers. The government allocated fields to support the military households, and the military households cultivated the food to get food, and they were assigned soldiers to prepare for war. The military households of the Yue Dynasty themselves had a low status, and in the later period the military garrison collapsed.
Military households often suffer from the double oppression of military service and labor, which makes them miserable.
Yanhu military households are divided into main military households, deputy military households and auxiliary households. The main military households are often headed by Ding soldiers of their own clan, the deputy military households are mostly Ding soldiers who have surrendered to the Han army, and the auxiliary households are captives and soldiers.
People of the North.
The main military household is dedicated to war and has the most land, which can be cultivated by the subordinate households; the deputy military household has the land to cultivate on its own, and has no family members, and can also ask the subordinate households to help with farming; the subordinate households are basically in the position between tenants and serfs
.
Taking the Sumen case twenty years ago as an example, the Jingbei frontier army collapsed, and the land of Liaodong and millions of people were all owned by Yan and Hu. The captive king Yejier tried this system to manage Liaodong.
At that time, because all the Han troops surrendered on a large scale, there were only distinctions between military households of the own tribe and subordinate households. After the Chentangyi War, the Yanhu invaded the border many times, mainly to capture people, but in fact they only supplemented the subordinate households.
Its shortcomings.
The most severe invasion was in the ninth year of Chongguan, and they kidnapped about 400,000 young men from the three prefectures of Yannan, including a large number of livestock.
It is precisely because of this special military and political structure that Yanhu was able to unite his clan into a military force before he invaded and occupied the Northland on a large scale.
When Yanhu invaded Yanji and other places, a large number of surrendered Han troops were obtained, and additional deputy military households (also called tiejun households) were added between the main military households and the subordinate households to accommodate the surrendered Han troops.
This military household system, which is essentially different from the Yue Dynasty and similar to the military aristocracy, as well as the corresponding land allotment and household system, firstly promotes the recovery of production in the North, and more importantly, in terms of military mobilization
Has extremely high efficiency.
When the soldiers of Yanhu and Hu were separated from production and dedicated to war, they could prepare their own soldiers and raise their families from the exploitation of subordinate households, instead of relying entirely on the central finance.
"Yue Lengqiu, Zhang Xie and others have a deep understanding of Yanhu, but the deeper they understand Yanhu, the harder it is to get rid of the fear in their hearts. They are exactly the same as Li Bingbu. Therefore, in western Liaoning, Li Bingbu seized the
After obtaining Songjiang City, they still knew that if they had to plan for it slowly, they would be defeated if they advanced too quickly. However, Zhang Xie, Yue Lengqiu and others were unrealistic in trying to defeat Yan Hu in one fell swoop..." Song Jia also analyzed Yue Lengqiu's role in Yan Hu from Tang Xitai's narration.
Thistle's state of mind when it collapses.
Before the collapse of Yan Ji, Li Zhuo led the Ji Town Army to capture Songjiang City. Although it was later confirmed that the loss of Songjiang City was a ploy by Yan and Hu to lure the enemy, if Li Zhuo's deployment could have been followed at the time, the imperial court could still have gained a military advantage in western Liaoning.
.It was precisely the impetuous eagerness of the ruling and opposition parties to achieve success that caused the entire situation to collapse.
Throughout the Jiliao War, it can be said that Yanhu's leadership reached a level of war command that ordinary people cannot reach. It can also be said that the situation has reached that point and is actually irreversible. However, Lin Fu reflected on this battle in the future and still regarded Zhang Xie and Yue as the commanders of the war.
Leng Qiu and others encouraged Emperor Chongguan to seize Li Zhuo's position as commander-in-chief, which was the direct cause of Yanji's collapse.
This matter was also Lin Fu's obsession with dealing with Yue Lengqiu at this time.
Lin Fu sighed slightly and said: "It's a pity that he is an opportunist..."
In the ninth year of Chongguan, when King Yan Jiqin was king, Lin Fu met Yue Lengqiu.
At that time, Yue Lengqiu was in charge of Eastern Fujian and was a high official in the border area. Lin Fu only had Li Zhuo, but Gu Wuchen appreciated it and was able to lead three thousand rural troops into battle. The status of the two was very different, as if they were worlds apart. At that time, Lin Fu and
Yue Lengqiu knew that Jinan was the main attack direction of the Yan captives. However, although Yue Lengqiu had elite Fujian soldiers, he did not dare to defend Jinan and secretly promoted the split of Shao Wu's army. From this incident, Lin Fu knew that Yue Lengqiu was opportunistic.
His temperament is really not that of a noble and upright gentleman.
Song Jia was aware of the grievances between Huaidong and Yue Lengqiu over the years. It was not surprising that Lin Fu had such an evaluation of Yue Lengqiu. He smiled and said: "If Yue Lengqiu is like Chen Xiyan, a humble gentleman, will you be happy if you are together?"
"I also know that Lin Fu commented on Yue Lengqiu like this, and he also believed that Yue Lengqiu wrote a letter in the late winter of the twelfth year of Chongguan, suggesting that the war in western Liaoning should go directly to Liaoyang, which was more out of a risk-taking mentality.
Otherwise, Yue Lengqiu's intentions were too deep and cruel.
In fact, after the collapse of the Northland, there was also a theory that speculated that Yue Lengqiu had sinister intentions, pointing out that Yue Lengqiu hoped that the Northland would collapse so that he could control the South as the governor of Jianghuai.
However, Yue Lengqiu was hesitant when supporting King Ning, which shows that he actually had no plans before and after the collapse of Beidi.
Lin Fu smiled bitterly.
The disastrous defeat of the Chizhou Army in Congyang was not something Lin Fu could have predicted in advance.
It was expected in advance that Yue Lengqiu was an opportunistic person and would not use any force to prevent the remnants of the She family from crossing the river, but he did not expect that the Chizhou army would be defeated so miserably on the north bank.
According to the previous plan, the Chizhou Army was undefeated, and the Chizhou Army was also called to attack the east of Hubei to attack the flanks of the She family after crossing the river, so as to prevent the main force of the Huaidong Army from being dispersed in Jinghu. However, the Chizhou Army was defeated miserably in Songyang, so it was called
The previous plan can no longer be implemented.
There were also voices within the Huaidong Army, hoping to take this opportunity to completely defeat Yue Lengqiu so that there would be no chance of his coming back. Lin Fu weighed the pros and cons, and the decision was really hard to make. However, Song Jia, Gao Zongting, and Song from Jiangning
Fudu suggested leaving Yue Lengqiu behind.
When the Chu Party was at its peak, it covered the sky with one hand in both the government and the public. When Yanji collapsed, Zhang Xie surrendered the enemy, and the Chu Party plummeted. If Yue Lengqiu had not supported it, it would have been powerful in the Jianghuai River and Yongxing.
It was difficult to survive in the early years. When Liu Yefei was defeated and executed after defecting to the enemy, Yue Lengqiu was implicated and resigned, and all the remnants of the Chu Party in Jiangning were expelled from the temple. Yue Lengqiu's reputation among scholars also dropped to the lowest level.
valley.
In the later period, both Lin Fu and Chen Xiyan recommended Yue Lengqiu to resume his duties as governor of Jiangzhou. They saw that Yue Lengqiu was no longer able to compete in the temple, and his ability to know and manage the army was very critical to the situation in Jiangzhou at that time.
During the Jiangning War, on the surface it seemed that Yue Lengqiu did not fight a single battle and even deliberately allowed Chen Zishou to surrender to the She family. However, in fact, Yue Lengqiu still played a very important role.
If Yue Lengqiu had not seized Chizhou and locked the door, Shewenzhuang would not have given up on Jiangning easily during the Jiangning war; if Yue Lengqiu had not occupied Chizhou and locked the gate to the west of Ning, Shewenzhuang would not have abandoned Jiangning.
Defend, retreat to Yijiang and seize the Huaidong Army with the strength of Jiuzishan and advance westward. The situation in the entire Jiangnan will become extremely complicated.
Recommending Yue Lengqiu to be the governor of Jiangzhou, Lin Fu also boasted that he was very proud of this clever move in his life. Naturally, he would not ignore Yue Lengqiu's role in the Jiangning war.
When Lin Fu wanted to completely regain Jiangxi, he relied on Yue Lengqiu to occupy Chizhou and guard the gate of Ningxi, so that he could transfer the main force of the Changshan Army from the south of Yijiang River to participate in the war. Otherwise, the Huaidong Army would not be able to form a strength advantage in Shangrao.
In fact, while considering that the vassals like Yue Lengqiu were disrespectful towards Huaidong and were on guard and restraint, it was also necessary to see that they also made great contributions to Huaidong.
If the Chizhou Army is completely disbanded now, it means that Huaidong will invest an additional 30,000 to 40,000 troops in the eastern Hubei region. This will disperse Huaidong's current military strength and will not be conducive to Huaidong's concentrated use of troops in other places.
Secondly, completely suppressing Yue Lengqiu would not be conducive to dividing Huaixi.
Among the various armies of troops in Huaixi, Tao Chun's army was the most powerful.
Tao Chun also came from the Eastern Fujian Army, but he broke with Lu Jingyan when he was in Jinan and was spurned by the Eastern Fujian generals. However, Tao Chun was only favored by Yue Lengqiu. It was also with Yue Lengqiu's support that Tao Chun finally took control of the Changhuai Army and joined the
At this time, when they left the town of Guoyang, the Huaixi army actually had the potential to fight against Dong Yuan.
Yue Lengqiu's influence on Tao Chun actually extended even further to the former generals of the Huai Army.
Due to the existence of Yue Lengqiu, Dong Yuan was unable to completely win over and digest Tao Chun's troops. Once Huaidong used the defeat of Songyang to completely suppress Yue Lengqiu, it would encourage Tao Chun to completely surrender to Dong Yuan.
After the Chizhou Army was disbanded, a large number of generals, including Deng Yu, Yue Zhi and others, were difficult to use in Huaidong, and were more likely to flow to Huaixi.
Keeping Yue Lengqiu at this time is actually to divide the power of Huaixi, and we cannot simply worry that Yue Lengqiu will restrain Huaidong.
Keeping Yue Lengqiu at this time can also reassure Jinghu and enable him to defend Jingzhou with all his strength. Even if Yanhu takes advantage of Xiangyang to go south, Jingzhou will still be a key place that affects the overall situation. If Jingzhou is not lost, even if it is called Yanhu
Even if they occupy most of Jinghu Lake, they cannot fully occupy the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.
If he suppressed Yue Lengqiu cruelly and mercilessly at this time, Hu Wenmu would be in danger of dying. When Yanhu's army marched south to Jinghu, and its power became so powerful that Jinghu could not stop it alone, Hu Wenmu might not be willing to persevere.
The most important thing about retaining Yue Lengqiu is to hide the truth from the enemy. To use Yue Lengqiu to deceive others is to completely confuse the She family for Huaidong's next military action.
Of course, Song Fu, Gao Zongting, and even Song Jia and others had another thought, that is, Yue Lengqiu was not a noble person who would rather die than surrender. It was precisely because of his opportunistic nature that Song Fu and others saw that Yue Lengqiu had done something to Huaidong.
Possibility of co-optation.
Therefore, Lin Fu didn't like Yue Lengqiu's opportunistic temperament, but Song Jia blamed Lin Fu for being so good despite taking advantage.
If Yue Lengqiu wants to be upright, chaste and determined, and a thorough royalist, there is no doubt that even if the strategy of concealing the truth does not work, we must take this opportunity to completely suppress him.
It is precisely the possibility that Yue Lengqiu can win over Huaidong, which will also involve the future treatment of the forces in Huaixi. The opinion of Gao Zongting and others is to let the defeat of Songyang go without investigation, and ask Yue Lengqiu to lead the Chizhou army to cross the river.
Stationed in Huangmei. Only in this way, while the main force of the Changshan Army stayed in Jiangxi, and Lin Fu transferred the Chongcheng Army to Luzhou for rest and recuperation, could it look seamless and prevent the enemy from being alert.
Lin Fu was distracted by his thoughts and headache, so he pulled Song Jia to sit in his arms.
Song Jia looked at the door and windows, which were not closed, and half pushed herself to sit in Lin Fu's arms, but pressed his hand to prevent him from touching it, and asked him to do business first.
The clothes were thin, and next to Song Jia's smooth and cool skin, Lin Fu casually flipped through the official letters, which looked very fragrant.
At this time, Zuo Yan pushed the door open and came in. Seeing the beauty in the room, his face turned red with embarrassment and he reported: "Another letter has arrived from Luzhou." He handed over a pile of letters and whispered, "It's broad daylight."
"You should also pay attention to the impact of being intimate with your wife..." He turned around and helped Lin Fu and Song Jia to close the doors and windows so that they could have fun during the day.
Song Jia's face was slightly red, and she laughed and cursed: "Damn it, you know how good you are after you ate the marrow last night, so why don't you come and arrange it for me today? I've been writing documents for a long time, and I'm tired. It's up to you to wait on the Lord to read the official letter."
Song Jia pushed herself up to stand up, Lin Fu put his hands around her soft waist. Song Jia's body was weak and weak, and she fell into Lin Fu's arms again. She was plump and beautiful, and her buttocks were sitting on Lin Fu's body through her thin clothes.
Between Lin Fu's abdomen, the big insect under Lin Fu moved around, and within a few breaths it became furious, causing Song Jia's body to weaken and her heart to tremble.
"..." Song Jia pinched Lin Fu's thigh with a look of resentment in her eyes, asking Lin Fu to save her some face in front of the maids. Lin Fu just shouted to Zuo Yan, closing the door and window to go out: "Yan'er, come here.
Help Madam undress..."
The Zuo sisters followed Song Jia south to serve Lin Fu, and they naturally enjoyed a share of the sexual pleasures early on. They were no longer perfect bodies who did not know the pleasures of men and women. They often replaced Song Jia when she was exhausted, letting Lin Fu enjoy all the pleasures.
The blessing of Qi people.
Although Zuo Yan was very shy, he obeyed Lin Fu's orders and came over to help.
Song Jia couldn't bear to be ravaged by Lin Fu in front of her maidservant and was so ecstatic that her maidservant Zuoyan came over, tied her hands, peeled off her skirt, and laughed and cursed: "Damn girl, I punish you to sit here and serve the Lord...
"Lifting up her skirt, peeling off her silk panties, revealing her snow-white buttocks, he asked her to sit down...
