Lord of the House

Vol 10 Chapter 28: say goodbye

"Give up Dongping? Did Shuzi really say that?"

The old, hoarse voice trembled a little, like the rustling sound of the autumn wind blowing through the window paper, with the gloomy coldness of the beginning of winter.

The Queen Mother Liang's eye disease became more and more serious. In the dimly lit room, she could only vaguely see Yuan Guizheng, who was sitting opposite. Liang's body was getting weaker and weaker, and she was bedridden all the year round, so Yuan Guizheng came over. She was also half lying on the soft couch, but when she heard the news brought by Yuan Guizheng, she got up emotionally.

Now it is not someone else who is trapped in Dongping, but his younger brother Liang Xi, who depended on each other in his childhood. At this time, Lin Fu was not only reluctant to send troops to Dongping, but also suggested that Dongping be abandoned here. How can she deal with it calmly?

Yuan Guizheng had a bitter expression on his face, and said, "Guizheng doesn't dare to conceal a single sentence..."

"This is also a sin!" Empress Dowager Liang excitedly patted the carved armrest of the couch, and sighed up to the sky, "The Liang family has done bad deeds over the years, but now it's her turn to be a sinner, who is to blame? what!"

Yuan Guizheng watched the Empress Dowager Liang slumped, slapping and beating on the carved handrail with her thin and blue-veined hand, as if she had no idea what to do with the situation in front of her, so she followed her tone and said, "Lin Bie said Dongping, there are also some pressing situations. If Chen Hansan was removed early, the situation would not be so sinister; Chen Hansan was like a nail in Hehuai's confidant, and no one dared to act rashly. Chengchong was also attacked by the enemy in Jining. difficult..."

The Empress Dowager Liang closed her eyes in pain. In the past, it was not someone else who didn't want Huaidong to get rid of Chen Hansan. It was the Liang family who occupied Shandong who needed Chen Hansan to stay in Xuzhou, as a buffer force between Shandong and Huaidong. Will you be cocooning yourself today?

Yuan Guizheng smiled bitterly in his heart. At the beginning, in order to pacify the chaos in Huaisi, Yue Lengqiu recruited Chen Hansan as an expedient measure. Come on, it's really delusional to think that Chen Hansan can be loyal to the court.

Chen Hansan may have secretly colluded with Yanhu long ago. He has 20,000 elites in Xuzhou, located between Jining, Guoyang, and Huaiyang. Not only Huaidong and Huaixi dare not act rashly, but Liang Chengchong is also in Jining. Such as thorns in the back, the bedroom is uncomfortable. If it wasn't for his father Liang Cheng who was besieged in Dongping, Liang Chengchong would have abandoned Jining West long ago.

Jiangning had previously stated that the Changhuai Army should relieve the siege of Dongping, but Lin Fu made it clear that he supported the withdrawal of the Changhuai Army into Huaixi. It is conceivable that even Yue Lengqiu, who had just resigned from the Prime Minister's office, would not mind Changhuai. The army has preserved its strength at this time.

In fact, the soldiers and horses who could relieve the siege of Dongping at this time were one of the Changhuai Army led by Tao Chun, with as many as 50,000 troops; The first is that Huaidong was stationed in Huaisi to be controlled by Huaiyang, with nearly 50,000 troops.

Dong Yuan's troops and horses were quite mixed, and the main force came from the imperial battalion, which had hardly experienced any war.

The Changhuai Army can be said to be one of the few elite soldiers in Jiangning's hands. It was originally based on an elite group of the East Fujian Army.

However, the Changhuai Army has repeatedly expanded in recent years, and it is inevitable that the supply of soldiers and personnel, personnel training and training are insufficient, and they are all infantry. It is really uncertain whether they will be able to confront the Yanhu elite cavalry on the Hehuai Plain.

Jiang Ning didn't want the Changhuai Army to consume the drama's mind, and it is not difficult to understand Yuan Guizheng.

If you want to solve the siege of Dongping, you can rely on the soldiers and horses stationed in Huaisi and Huaiyang Town in Huaidong——

The Huaiyang Town Army, which was formed by recruiting Liu Miaozhen's red jacket army, was almost all Liu An'er's remains. Liu An'er betrayed Chen Hansan, and his troops suffered heavy casualties. In the end, they almost fell to the desperate situation of killing Chen Zhihu. Almost everyone had a **** feud with Chen Hansan. ,

Xuzhou and Huaiyang are connected to each other, and Chen Hansan will not be removed or driven out from Xuzhou. It is hard to imagine that the main force of Huaiyang Town Army originally intended to go north to aid Dongping, and then the three empty Huaiyang cities were exposed to Chen Hansan's attack. under the eyelids.

The reason for this is that Miao Shuo, who is standing by the side, can also understand that the Liang family is in a cocoon, leaving Chen Hansan to leave a scourge in Xuzhou, and the siege of Dongping is really a dangerous situation. Rather, he wanted to abandon Dongping and Liangxi, the Duke of Lu.

The dimly lit cold room was silent for a long time, before Empress Dowager Liang got up and asked Yuan Guizheng: "If Huaidong soldiers advance to Yinan, can my unsatisfactory brother have a chance to survive?"

Yuan Guizheng said: "The Huaidong army goes to Yinan, and it should be able to contain some of the enemy's forces..."

"Just use this condition to talk to Lin Fu," Empress Dowager Liang waved her hand weakly, and said in frustration, "You can send someone to talk to Cheng Chong and Cheng Yi, the idea is that my useless old woman will take it. Yes, even if their father can't escape, the two brothers have to live up to their expectations, and don't be scorned by outsiders..."

Yuan Guizheng nodded and was accompanied by Miao Shuo to exit. He really didn't know how useful it would be to find Lin Fu again.

Although Yinan was considered the Liang family's territory at this time, in fact, Liang Chengchong wanted to withdraw, so he could only withdraw westward.

Jiangning has officially designated the area west of Bianshui as a war zone under the jurisdiction of Huaidong. Yinan is almost already in Huaidong's pocket. At this time, Yuan Guizheng has no confidence to use Yinan as an exchange condition to ask Huaidong. Immediately send troops into Yinan?

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

Yuan Guizheng left and returned, and asked Huaidong to send troops to Yinan.

Of course, if Huaidong wanted to successfully take over Yinan, he would have to send troops over before Liang Chengchong retreated westward. But how many enemy troops can be contained depends on the number of troops stationed in Yinan.

Huaiyang Town could hardly move, and Lin Fu could mobilize very limited troops in Huaisi. Lin Fu only promised to send troops to Yinan in the near future, but did not promise to send many troops and horses.

After Yuan Guizheng left, Lin Fu also made some preparations to supervise the battle in Beihuai Si before leaving, and went back to the elegant residence in the northern foothills where Jun Xun lived from Dongya early.

Gu Junxun moved down the mountain, and Liu Yueer and Xiaoman all moved down to live there one after another. They circled a house at the northern foot of Zilang Mountain and thought it was an inner house. A thick retaining wall was built around it, and the guards were naturally extremely strict.

The development of Chongcheng is extremely rapid. The new city built in the early years could not accommodate nearly 40,000 urban households. Large areas of residential areas were planned to be built outside the East City and the North City. Lin Mengde, Qin Chengzu, and others even planned to build another city wall on the periphery that was comparable in scale to Weiyang, Jiangning and other cities.

Lin Fu finally rejected this idea. First, to build a solid city wall with a circumference of 30 to 40 miles, which would be very costly; secondly, once the interior line is broken through, there is little difference between one more city wall and one less city wall.

Walking to the elegant residence at the northern foot of the mountain, stepping through the door, I almost bumped into Sun Wenwan in the hanging flower hall.

"Sir, are you going north in the next two days?" Sun Wenwan asked softly.

"Yeah," Lin Bie nodded, and when he was about to chat with Sun Wenwan, Xiaoman came out of the inside after listening to the voice, and greeted, "Is Xianggong back?"

Sun Wenwan saluted and backed out, Xiaoman glanced at her back, then walked in lightly holding Lin Bing's arm, and said, "Mr. Wu is here, Sister Yue'er has been feeling unwell these past few days, as you said, Pregnant again, you can be half a doctor..."

"Why don't you say that?" Lin Bie laughed, "The first aid in the military was something I figured out together; besides, I'm the father of two children, and Yue'er can always see if she's unhappy. Some eyebrows..." Seeing the slightly lonely expression between Xiaoman's brows and eyes, knowing that she was concerned about her lack of fertility, she squeezed her delicate chin and asked with a smile, "Why, are you anxious to have a child?"

"It's said that old hens can lay eggs..." Xiaoman replied glumly.

Although it has been a few years since Xiaoman was brought into the house, Xiaoman is only in his twentieth year. If Zhaohua is at a young age in the future, Lin Fuben thought that she would have children in a few years, so he would have **** with her to avoid Yi. On the day of conception, she did not expect to cause her psychological burden and make her feel unhappy about it.

Lin Fu smiled and took Xiaoman into his arms, and said, "That's because we used to get together less often, and you will always stay by my side in the future, and it will become..."

"I think so, but you're going to Shanyang in two days. I don't know how many days it will take to see you." Thinking of parting, Xiaoman was still depressed, but he hugged Lin Bie's waist under the porch. , until he heard the voices of Gu Junxun and Liu Yueer talking, and then he let go of his hand.

Seeing Gu Junxun and Liu Yue'er walking hand in hand like sisters, Lin Bie put his hands on his hips and said, "The war on the northern front will take a long time. When I leave, I don't know how long I will live in the north. Fortunately, the mountains Yang has also prepared a house, so you can move in with me too."

He went to Shanyang this time to officially set up the Shanyang Xingying Yamen in Shanyang, including the North Division of the Military Intelligence Division, the War Training Academy, etc., from Sun Jingtang, Gao Zongting, Ye Junan and below, there will be a team of people. They all went north with him to deal with the war on the northern front, and it was no longer a temporary supervision of the war.

Lin Fu even wanted to go a step further and set Shanyin as the capital county of Huai'an Prefecture, and moved Huai'an Prefecture Ya from Huai'an County to Shanyin County.

Lin Fu didn't want to be separated from his wives and concubines for a long time, so he wanted to take them to live there together.

Gu Junxun shook his head and said, "How can I keep my mother in Chongzhou alone? Besides, Huaidong always has to take Chongzhou as its foundation. I am a womanist family, and I don't have much use. Staying in Chongzhou is always If it can help you calm down - let Sister Yue'er and Xiao Man accompany you to Shanyang."

"Why should I go to Shanyang with him with a big belly?" Liu Yueer held her slightly bulging belly. Even though she wanted to go to Shanyang, she finally decided to stay with Gu Junxun in Chongzhou.

Xiaoman kept silent, and looked at Liu Yueer and Gu Junxun pitifully. She wanted to go to Shanyang with her heart, but she was afraid that she would not be able to walk alone.

Liu Yue'er said with a smile, "There is always someone to take care of by Xianggong's side, Xiaoman, just follow him, you can't make Miss Song work hard for everyone!"

After so many things, Gu Junxun has matured. As a mistress, she has to manage the inner house for Lin Fu, and can no longer be jealous of the wind, so she must sacrifice a lot. Sister can rest assured in Chongzhou..."

Xiaoman turned his head and looked at Lin Fu with a wide-eyed smile. Lin Fu couldn't help laughing. He never thought that Liu Yue'er, the most docile person on weekdays, would use words to run against him - he couldn't categorically deny the "adultery" with Song Jia~www.wuxiaspot .com~ Xiaoman thought about going to Shanyang with him, so when he was in Chongzhou, he didn't fight with others for the forest bondage. After dinner, he went back with Liu Yueer early.

Gu Junxun and Lin Fu were sitting in the room talking, and said, "In the blink of an eye, these years have passed, when Sister Sun met you, she was only eighteen years old, and she is twenty-three this year. Her marriage can't be dragged on forever. What do you think we should do? And the matter of the Su family sister..."

Lin Bie pursed his mouth, thinking of the situation he ran into with Sun Wenwan when he came back.

At first, Su Mei wanted to marry him and Sun Wenwan, but the world was unpredictable, and many things were missed by accident. In order to take care of the affairs of the Xihe Society, Sun Wenwan didn't have any family members until she was eighteen years old. In this world, she was considered an old leftover girl.

However, when the Sun family settled in Chongzhou, they are already a very well-established family in Huaidong. If they want to come to the Sun family, they are willing to marry. Other families will not care about Sun Wenwan's age. However, her marriage has been delayed, and Lin Fu has never Hear people mention it.

When Gu Junxun mentioned it at this time, Lin Fu didn't know how to respond.

"Xiaoman accompanies you to Shanyang, there will always be some manpower. Would it be better to let Sister Sun accompany you there?" Gu Junxun asked.

"This," Lin Bie was stunned for a moment, and said, "I can't decide this either!"

Sun Wenwan has never promised others, and Lin Fu will not pretend to be stupid and pretend that this matter has nothing to do with him, but the prestige and status of the Sun family in Huaidong today are far from what they used to be in the past. Lin Fu should respect Sun Jingxuan and Sun Jingtang. Sun Wenwan couldn't be allowed to follow her without a name or a role - at this time, the national disaster was at the forefront, and her father-in-law Gu Wuchen had just died in Yangxin to fulfill his righteousness, and Lin Fu had no face to marry a wife and take a concubine at this time.
