Lord of the House

Vol 7 Chapter 6: world chaos

(Second update, it's dawn, ask for a red ticket)

Lin Fu cared about the She family the most. Long before the Jiangdong Zuo Army formed an army, he sent sentries to Jin'an, Jian'an and other places.

At this time, the She family made a detour from western Zhejiang to attack Xianxia Pass and Shan Pass, and blocked the passages in and out of Zhejiang and Jiangxi. Yu Wangao would naturally open up a net in Jian'an, Shaowu, Pucheng and other places to prevent the infiltration of enemy scouts. It is extremely difficult for the sentry of the Zuo Army to pass through the blockade of both the enemy and the enemy and transmit the news back to Chongzhou.

On the fifth day of the first month of November, Lin Bie received information from Jian'an sent by the sentry in Jiangning.

After it was confirmed that the She family sent troops to attack eastern Zhejiang, the Zhedong County Division had a dispute over the issue of whether the She family should send troops or not. The East Fujian Xuanfu envoy and the police envoy insisted on asking the court for instructions before dealing with it. Admiral Yu Wangao worried that the way back would be intercepted. , From Jian'an Bing divided east and west to guard Xianxia Pass and Shan Pass back road.

Xinlu deliberately blocked the She family, and it was October 24th when the Zhedong County Division confirmed the news that the She family sent troops to Zhejiang in the Jian'an House in the middle reaches of the Minjiang River. Also on the 24th, many granaries in Jian'an City and the streets and alleys of the neighboring warehouses caught fire on a large scale. Under such torment, Yu Wangao resolutely moved from Jian'an to guard Shanguan and Xianxia on the 25th. close.

On the 25th, Xianxia Pass had been obtained by the She family's detoured soldiers from western Zhejiang, and on the 26th, Shan Pass was also lost.

The Jian'an Army was ambushed at Gudao in the north of Pucheng and northwest of Shaowu around the 27th day. The east road collapsed. Pucheng was captured by the chaos. The army retreated to Shaowu.

On the 28th, all the counties in Jin'an rebelled. Except for the Jianyang magistrate whose whereabouts were missing, the other magistrates, county magistrates and other officials sent by the imperial court to Jin'an all bound the rebels and sent extravagant homes. The Jin'an rebels headed by eight surnames, including Song, ganged up their blood as an alliance, formed the Governor's Office of Fujian and Zhejiang University, and jointly promoted Shewenzhuang as the Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang University.

On the 26th, the Song army led by Yongtai Bo Song Fu sent troops south to capture Quanzhou.

The news came out from Jianzhou on the 29th, and it took only eight days to reach Jiangning, which can be said to be extremely fast. Northern Zhejiang, Jiangdong, and Jiangxi counties are not even aware of the status of Jin'an and Jian'an.

After Xianxia Pass and Shan Pass were sent to the She family to take them away, there were no soldiers in western Zhejiang and southern Jiangxi to be sent to retake the pass, and some officials even worried that Yu Wangao, who was robbed in the future, would return to the She family.

From Lin Fu's point of view, Yu Wangao and his generals had fought **** battles with the She family for nearly ten years, and each other's hands were stained with each other's blood. How could they surrender?

Besides, Yu Wangao has already officially worshipped the admiral, and the military attache ranks in the third rank of the commander of the light car, and he has been appointed as the county magistrate of Qingjiang.

When the news came out from Jianzhou on the 29th, Yu Wangao's Jian'an Army was still in control of the three cities of Jianzhou, Shaowu, and Jian'an in northern Fujian, while the Jin family rebels headed by Shejia seized Quanzhou. More intent on taking Zhangzhou first.

There are many hills and few plains in East Fujian. There is a saying that Jiufenshan is divided into fields. The terrain is high in the northwest and low in the southeast. The main plains are only a few narrow places such as Jin'an, Quanzhou, and Zhangzhou.

These Tada plains are concentrated in the narrow coastal zone with Jin’an as the north end and Zhangzhou as the south end. The length from north to south is no more than 500 li. After winning Zhangzhou and Quanzhou, it is not only easy to control, but also rich from these places. The land obtained a large amount of food and grass to support the Jinan rebels.

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

"Yu Wangao's Jian'an Army is actually surrounded by the Jin'an rebels..." Gu Wuchen learned from Lin Fu that the sentinel came from Jianzhou on the 29th, and stared at the slightly crude map of East Fujian. , frowning at the current embarrassing situation and worrying about Yu Wangao's Jian'an Army.

Lin Fu held his chin, kept silent, and glanced at Liu Xilin, wanting to see what he had in mind.

"The mountains and rivers in northern Fujian are separated from each other and the streams are wrong. The way out for the Jian'an Army is to follow the Minjiang River and attack Jin'an, or attack Shanguan and Xianxiaguan, and open up the channel connecting Jiangxi and Zhejiang." Encouraged by Lin Fu , Liu Xilin stood up and said, "The eight surnames have run Jin'an for nearly two hundred years, making Jin'an the No. 1 male city in East Fujian. Although the Jian'an army has the potential to build a stronghold, it is difficult to conquer. Once the forcible siege of the city is frustrated, the Jian'an army Yu Wangao is good at military affairs, so most of them will not take this strategy. Jin'an rebels have occupied Mingzhou and Kuaiji, and strange soldiers have seized Xianxia Pass, and instigated the miners to revolt in Xianxia Mountain. Quzhou has become a dangerous place. There is no reinforcement. If they are dispatched, Quzhou will fall in a few days, the Jinan rebels will soon form a line in southern Zhejiang, and Yu Wanguo will retake Xianxia Pass from the She family.

Shanguan is located between Fuzhou in Jiangxi and Zhaowu in East Fujian. The Shejia sent 2,000 elites to walk through the Yushui Valley and climb the mountains between Xinzhou and Fuzhou before they captured Shanguan unexpectedly.

As long as Xinzhou and Fuzhou are not lost, the 2,000 elites of the luxury family occupying Shanguan are really alone. They are attacked by Yu Wangao and Jiangxi County soldiers.

However, Shanguan is located between the mountains and mountains, and it is not easy to retake it.

Shewenzhuang naturally knew that sending troops to seize Shanguan would be dangerous, and the leader must be a stoic and credible person. It is estimated that the final key is to see if the Shanguan defenders run out of food and grass first, or whether the Jian’an army can’t stabilize the military first, maybe enter The Jin'an rebels in eastern Zhejiang will attack Xinzhou in Jiangxi to solve the threat on Shanguan's flank.

The Jian'an Army had nearly 20,000 soldiers, and the support of Zhaowu, Jianzhou, and Jian'an was far from enough, and food and salaries were shipped from western Zhejiang and Jiangxi. The She family dispatched troops just before the delivery of the salaries in autumn, and sent secret agents to burn the grain storage in the cities of Jian'an in advance. Under such circumstances, it is difficult for the military to remain unshakable.

Regarding the situation in southern Zhejiang, except for Mingzhou and Kuaiji, the two prefectures and counties were seized by the Jin rebels with lightning speed.

When Longshan was defeated, the Zhejiang soldiers were exhausted, and a few of the defeated soldiers also fled across the river to Jiaxing, Hangzhou and other places to receive reorganization. Dong Yuan can mobilize only 20,000 troops in Jiahang Lake and other places on the north bank of the Qianjiang River, mainly the Weiyang Army and the Ninghai Navy. He was unable to send troops to aid Quzhou at all, and he was even more out of reach for the prefectures and counties such as Pingyang and Taizhou that were sandwiched between Minghui and Jin'an.

The Jin'an rebels suddenly seized Mingzhou and Kuaiji, and the Jian'an army of Yu Wangao was sealed in the northern mountain city of Fujian, and they were about to send troops to seize Zhangquan and other places. Zhejiang Nanfu County.

The Jin'an rebels could not decide to seize the prefectures and counties in southern Zhejiang, and the southeastern counties could not draw elite troops to aid the two Zhejiangs.

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

At the end of October, Liu Aner's refugee army was blocked from advancing north to Shaandong, retreating to Shangxian County, and sent a red jacket girl Liu Miaozhen down the Danshui to seize Junzhou, and then conquer Nanyang. On the first day of November, Liu Miaozhen, Yang Quan and other rebel generals led a group The elites of the refugee army marched from Nanyang north to Ruzhou, where the defense was empty, and officially advanced to western Henan, intending to join forces with Chen Hansan's Tianbao Zuohu Army in central Henan.

Although Liu An'er, Gong Yucai, Luo Xiancheng and other refugee forces have suffered setbacks several times, their momentum has not diminished. They moved from Huai Shang to Hubei, East Sichuan, and Western Qin. million.

Among them, Liu An'er had the most elite soldiers. In addition to Liu Miaozhen and Yang Quan, Wu Shiyi, Sun Ganzi, and Ma Lantou were all traitors under his command who could fight well.

Although Chen Hansan led the anti-robbery battalion to defect to Liu An'er, it was an independent department. It had only maintained four or five thousand troops for a long time, but it was the most elite. After Chen Hansan's betrayal, he fought from the refugee army more than ten times, and every battle must be overcome, which made officers and soldiers in Huaishang, Hanzhong, Nanyang, northern Henan and other places as well as local soldiers terrified.

After provoking the rebellion of 300,000 people who built the Yellow River embankment, Chen Hansan pretended to be the left guard of the Tianjiao, and then officially recruited Jianyong in Liaocheng, Western Lu, and expanded his army to more than 20,000 people.

Yue Lengqiu led the Changhuai Army north to suppress the civil revolt. The first thing he had to face was the elite of the refugee rebels, such as Chen Hansan, Liu Miaozhen, and Yang Quan, who had joined forces in central Henan. , but there are still three town troops who came to the north to support them and return to Yue Lengqiu to control.

Although Lin Fu and Yue Lengqiu were **** for tat, just like Yue Lengqiu did not want the Jiangdong Zuo Army to be defeated in Chongzhou, Lin Fu also did not want the Changhuai Army to suffer a major setback in Henan, which would make the entire Central Plains situation rotten to the end.

The war in the north was also turbulent. At the end of the month, a letter came by sea, reporting the battle situation on the northwest front of Yanshan. In late October, the Donglu broke through the border wall of the north of Datong and poured into the north of Shanxi, and the fortresses around Datong fell one after another. , only Chen Zhihu led the elite to defend Datong.

Chen Zhihu sent a messenger to break through the siege to ask Li Zhuo for help, saying that the Donglu offensive was very urgent, but he also said that there was no shortage of food and grass in the city, and he could defend it for three to five months. Very general demeanor.

As long as Datong is not lost, most of the Donglu cavalry will not dare to detour into Jinzhong, and the situation in Yanbei can barely maintain. At the same time, there is a voice from the court, asking Li Zhuo to take the opportunity to send troops from Jibei Linyu to attack Donghu, which can solve Datong. siege, and take the opportunity to regain the lost territory in western Liaoning.

Li Zhuo ignored such voices and has been impeached many times~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The situation in the Central Plains is unstable, and the Tianbao rebels may threaten Yanjing. Li Zhuo has only been training in Jibei for half a year, and the results are limited. The main force of the captives was attracted to the Datong line of Jinzhong, and this time was by no means the time to send troops to seize the homeland of western Liaoning.

Donglu fighting from north to south is from poor land to rich land, you can grab food on the spot to relieve the replenishment, and recover the homeland of western Liaoning and fight from south to north, from rich land to poor land, already have the mind of fighting to support war, In the remote areas of western Liaoning, there is no way to raise food, so we can only rely on the rear. Even if there is no Tianjiao rebels making a big show in northern Shandong, the current Jinhai food route can only barely maintain the supply of food and grass for the armies in Gyeonggi and the northern front. How can there be spare strength to send troops out of Jibei Linyu to seize the homeland of western Liaoning?

The so-called siege of Wei to save Zhao is just an unrealistic scholar's words, but there is a lot of market in the court, and I don't know if someone secretly instigated it.

Under such a turbulent situation, Lin Bie left Jiangning on the eighth day of November and returned to Chongzhou by boat.

The dispute with the Jiangning Ministry of Industry was inconclusive, but Ge Siyu was seduced by it, and nearly a hundred people from the Longjiang Shipyard and Zhufang Division dragged their families and moved to Chongzhou with Lin Fu to settle down. Lin Fuhua bought the officials of the Longjiang Shipyard and Zhufang Division with silver, but the officials of the Jiangning Ministry of Industry were unaware of this. In the eyes of these officials, no matter how good the craftsmanship is, it is still a lowly rank and file.

Following Lin Fu down the river at the same time, Yang Shi led the two battalions of Jianrui who went to Chongzhou for training in water warfare. They were the elite charioteers brought by Gu Wuchen from the Commissioner of the Inspector and Jianyong who were recruited from Dongyang Township Yongli. When the training is successful, they will be directly incorporated into the Jiangning Water Battalion and become the main force. At this time, the Jiangning Water Battalion has given Gu Wuchen three rounds to move south to eastern Zhejiang to support the war and accept Dong Yuan's dispatch. My QT room is open!
