The Founding of the Red Chamber

This New Year, except for Jia Yuan who was fined to raise horses in a stable outside the customs, civil and military officials all had a relatively happy life.It is Jia Yuan, although he has been deprived of his post now, but his father-in-law, Wang Zhifu, comforted his son-in-law very much, and felt that his son-in-law was not a big deal.What's more, there is also Tu Xiaosi, who went over to look at Jia Yuan twice, and Jia Yuan knew that Tu San brother was not really angry with him.Jia Yuan felt relieved.

Furthermore, there are two happy events for Lin Teng and Xu Nian. Lin Teng and the Huo family's wedding has been decided in advance. Teng.As for the marriage between Xu Nian and Mu's daughter, Lin Jing had asked Madam Zhang to bring a letter to Mu Qiuting to see what the Mu family wanted.Anyway, Lin Jing reckoned that the problem wasn't that big of a deal.In fact, it was just such a chaotic world, otherwise, a son of a family like Xu Nianlin Teng would definitely find a daughter from a family to match him.The two marriages that Lin Jing personally arranged for the two of them proved Lin Jing's superb vision in the years that followed.

The new year of the imperial court is also celebrated with singing and dancing, especially the civil servants, one after another New Year's poems, all congratulating the peace of the world this year.Indeed, although Chen Qibao had fought continuously since he ascended the throne, all the wars ended in victory for the court.Even in Beijing Pass, although there were rebels who never bowed their heads, under the command of General Gao Van Gogh, they firmly defended against the mobs outside the pass.And outside the pass, the imperial court has always regarded it as a barren land, so what is there to be afraid of?

It was still early for Lin Yi to bring his wife back to the mansion after the palace banquet, and the family was full of prosperity and joy in the new year.Lin Yi went into the study when he returned home, Shu Jingyun followed, and the two met casually.Shu Jingyun asked, "How is it, did the palace banquet go well?"

"Nothing went wrong." After a pause, Lin Yi said, "It went too well."

Shu Jingyun pondered for a while what Lin Yi said, and then she understood a little bit, and couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, "It seems that the suppression of the Jiangnan rebellion has made all the officials feel that now it's just a small matter outside the customs, and the Jiangnan rebels can be suppressed, and the outside of the customs is even more trivial. One."

Lin Yi sighed, and had to say that Shu Jingyun had hit his heart.Lin Yi said, "If you don't die by beating a snake, you will have endless troubles." In the south of the Yangtze River, Tu Xiaosan and Lin Jing were not brought to justice, and they were rescued from their lives. Lin Yi knew that the troubles in the future would be serious.

Shu Jingyun said, "Ah Jing is not a snake." It was a dragon, at least, a flood dragon.

"He is much more dangerous than a snake." Lin Yi said, "Nowadays, those Qingliu in the imperial court think that outside the pass is nothing more than a mustard disease. How do they know that this group of people outside the pass is more powerful than the rich and powerful families in the south of the Yangtze River and the former? Jinling against the king is a hundred times more dangerous."

As Lin Yi's number one confidant, Shu Jingyun agrees with Lin Yi's judgment.Originally, Shu Jingyun's positioning of Lin Jing was to be the pillar of the family's rejuvenation, so, before that, Shu Jingyun was quite attentive in teaching Lin Jing.Later, due to God's will, Lin Jing left the capital, and he returned to the sea and the mountains.Although Lin Jing is outstanding in strategy, he is too young and inexperienced. What's more, Lin Jing is not born with enough talent to go to the battlefield in person, so his strategy is only outstanding.Lin Jing's headache is his political ability, which is simply a natural political skill.Like Situ San, this is just a bloody thug. Without Lin Jing's assistance, how could such a person occupy the land outside the pass to resist the imperial court!

Lin Jing and Situ San, one literary and one military, are really a match made in heaven.

Shu Jingyun said, "What I'm worried about is this Gao Fan. Guan Tingyu presided over the war outside the pass, and there has been no progress in a short period of time. Gao Fan is a genius, and he is not as good as General Guan. But, He presided over the war outside the pass, but he won two or three small victories. There must be something wrong with this person."

Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a little headache when he thought of Lin Jing's methods. Lin Jing was not born good at war. Although in the eyes of many people, Lin Jing's tactics were already a fluke among young people, but Lin Yi knew Lin Jing too well. Lin Jing's talent in understanding people's hearts is a hundred times better than his tactics.A villain like Gao Fan, Lin Jing hasn't killed him yet, must be because Gao Fan is still useful.Lin Yi said, "In such a desolate place outside the customs, the imperial court has blocked the trade route to the outside of the customs, but in the past half a year, there has been no movement from the imperial court outside the customs. This shows that they have other smuggling routes, and even, at the end of this year, the capital The price of foreign goods has only increased by [-]% compared to previous years, and has not fluctuated greatly. What does this mean?"

What does this mean?

it goes without saying.

Not to mention the smuggling between Jiangnan and overseas in the past, I am afraid that even outside the customs, there are other ways to meet their needs.

Moreover, according to Lin Yi's estimate, the size of the army outside the customs is about [-] to [-]. If you want to feed such an army, you need to rely on the food tax from outside the customs alone, which may not be ample.What surprised Lin Yi was not that Lin Jing established a smuggling route so quickly, but that Lin Jing successfully established a smuggling route so quickly. Infiltrated by Lin Jing.

What surprised Lin Yi was not the number of smuggled cases, but the smuggled incident itself.

Knowing that Lin Yi was worried, Shu Jingyun said softly, "He has been fighting against the Japanese in Jiangnan for several years, and it is not an exaggeration to have some connections with Jiangnan."

Lin Yi said, "The longer this war drags on, the more difficult it will be to deal with."

Shu Jingyun agrees with Lin Yi's words very much, but Lin Jing privately saw that he mentioned the war against Beijing Pass with Jinshang years ago, but Jinshang did not comment on it.Or, many people despise Guanwai because of the failure of several battles by the Guanwai army.Some ignorant Qingliu even thought that the Guanwai army was vulnerable. The evidence is that the Guanwai army went south to quell the Jinling King's rebellion. As a result, Duan Tianyu was asked to chase the Savage Valley.

Well, this idiot is afraid that he still doesn't know how scary Duan Tianyu is.

As early as Lin Yi knew the news that Duan Tianyu was collaborating with the Guanwai army, Lin Yi thought that it would be a good deal for Duan Tianyu to exchange [-] Guanwai troops, not to mention [-] Guanwai troops.

Tu Xiaosan and Lin Jing are already a rare steel alliance, and Duan Tianyu, who is good at fighting, makes Lin Yi even more headache.

Of course, this was not before Lin Yi didn't know that Duan Tianyu was sent by Lin Jing to the western barbarian territory.

Lin Yi received a secret letter from Guan Tingyu a few years later, in which he said a tip from Ximan, saying that Prince Dai Qing, Ars Leng, had regained the grassland of his father's generation and inherited the throne of Dai Qing. The enemies who once attacked their tribes, but in just three months, six tribes have become history.This is just a tribal dispute on the prairie. What shocked Lin Yi was that Guan Tingyu had a detailed description of the weapons used by Ars Leng's men in his letter. Lin Yi had participated in the battle of Jiangnan, so he knew what Guan Tingyu meant at a glance , this Prince Alshen must have something to do with the Guanwai Army.

Guan Tingyu has been in Bianzhou for a long time, and he doesn't know as much about the affairs of the court as Lin Yi.As soon as Lin Yilue recalled it, he knew the origin of this new King Daiqing. It was two or three years after Lin Jing left Beijing. Out of Prince Daiqing and Princess Daiqing.At that time, it was Lin Jing who was in Hanzhou City who protected the mother and son.

However, after the disastrous defeat of the Guanwai Army in the south of the Yangtze River, isn't Lin Jing busy with rebuilding the Guanwai Army and strengthening the training of the Guanwai Army?Why did Ars Leng and the Guanwai army be sent to Ximan again?

Even Lin Yi couldn't figure out what Lin Jing's purpose was for a while.

Because the old Duke died in battle in Bianzhou, Lin Yi had no good feelings for the barbarians.He believed that Lin Jing would not have a good opinion of the barbarians, but this had nothing to do with whether Lin Jing would unite with the Western Man to fight against the imperial court.Last year, the wealthy families in the south of the Yangtze River rebelled, and Lin Jing's idea for those wealthy families was to lure the western barbarians to invade Bianzhou, encircle Wei and rescue Zhao, and make Guan Tingyu retreat.Lin Jing's strategy was not wrong, but Lin Yi and Guan Tingyu took advantage of their tricks and instead lured the Guanwai army to the south of the Yangtze River, thus defeating the Jiangnan rebels and the Guanwai army.

It can be said that Lin Jing's strategy failed last time.

Could it be that Lin Jing wants to repeat the old trick?

Lin Yi also had some doubts about Lin Jing's thoughts, and couldn't help saying, "A Yun, what do you think of this matter?"

"At this time, instead of going to fight against Ximan, what should he do with his supplies? Compared with the outside of the pass, Ximan is even more sparsely populated." Shu Jingyun was also a little confused, feeling that Lin Jing's move was really incomprehensible .Fortunately, Shu Jingyun was Lin Jing's teacher at the beginning, and she is not an ordinary person. Shu Jingyun quickly organized her thoughts and said, "First, this shows that in a short period of time, there is no intention to march from outside the pass to inside the pass. Second, Regardless of whether they have weapons, food, grass, or manpower, they are sufficient in all aspects, and the battle in the south of the Yangtze River failed to hurt the vitality of the troops outside the pass. Third, he wants to gain the right to speak in Ximan."

"The right to speak?"

"The Western Man is different from the Middle-earth. They have always lived in separate tribes. The barbarian king mentioned today is just one of the larger barbarian tribes. This time, he deliberately sent troops to the Western Man under the name of Alslen. There are two purposes. First, Ximan has always been a serious problem in frontier states. If he puts his eyes on the situation of the world, Ximan will sooner or later be resolved. The defeat in the Jiangnan war this time made him understand that in the real world On the battlefield of gold and iron horses, his strength is insufficient. One of the confidants' serious problems is General Guan Tingyu. Last year, he wanted to lure the barbarians to hold back the Guanwai army. His tactics were correct. However, the barbarians again If he is not his subordinate, why should he listen to his command? This is the root cause of his defeat in Jiangnan. I guess, this is also one of the reasons why he sent troops to Ximan. Guan Tingyu, he wants to really use the barbarian prince to gain control of Western Man, and then use barbarian soldiers to hold Guan Tingyu back. Second, as long as Guan Tingyu can be dragged to the border state, then when he competes for the world, his There is only one opponent left. That person is you."

When Shu Jingyun said these words, even Shu Jingyun couldn't help but feel chills in her heart.

What method does Lin Jing plan to plot against Lin Yi?

What kind of ending will this pair of equally outstanding brothers of the Lin family go their separate ways today?
