Lord of the House

"What does Jiangning have to say about the Yanbei war?"

Lin Fu put down the charcoal pen in his hand and asked Lin Mengde softly.

Lin Fu was in such a high position and was given the reward of purple. He was also one of the few people in Jiangdong County who held the power. Even in the entire Dayue Dynasty, there were not many officials who held tens of thousands of elite soldiers.

Lin Bie has a bad reputation among Qingliu scholars, but no one who is blind will come to him to annoy him. At the same time, he also decides that he will not hear Jiangning's Qingliu rumors - when the imperial examination is awarded Scholars, scholars coexist with the clan, Quan Huan, and Shixun. Above the temple, the scholar's power is even stronger. Qingliu Fengyi is just the wind vane of the temple.

Lin Bie couldn't hear the rumors, but he always paid attention.

The war in Yanbei was always something he couldn't let go of. In the Dongya official hall, in addition to the Jianghuai situation map, it was the Yanbei situation map - on the contrary, the Huaisi and East China Sea situation maps directly related to Huaidong were not hung. on the wall.

Lin Fu really wanted to hear how Jiang Ning's Qingliu viewed this matter, and hoped to see a change in the court's attitude towards this matter.

"..." Lin Meng gave a wry smile and said, "It's true that the scholar misunderstood the country..."

Zhang Xie, Yue Lengqiu and others are quite optimistic about the situation in Yanbei. Lin Fu is very clear about this situation - Gu Wuchen, like Lin Fu, is not so optimistic about the situation in Yanbei. After all, he has been on the sidelines for ten years. Have a deep understanding of the situation of Yandong and Yanxi Hu Hu.

"Let's hear it..." Lin Fu said.

"In the copy of Dishutang, it is written that there are more than 100,000 cavalry around Datong. Jiangning scholars generally think that the more than 100,000 cavalry have taken time to fight the Donglu. As long as Li Bingbu moves faster in western Liaoning, it will definitely be able to force the Donglu to withdraw from Datong. There are even many people optimistic that the battle of Western Liaoning can completely solve the situation in Liao!" Lin Mengde said.

"..." Lin Fu didn't speak.

Lin Mengde said again, "If the powerful officials above the temple have the general knowledge of Jiangning scholars, the situation in Yanbei is really dangerous."

Hu Zhiyong sat down and tugged at Lin Mengde's clothes, and said in a low voice, "The princes in the court, their knowledge is not necessarily better than that of Jiangning scholars..."

"Ah?" Lin Meng was slightly startled.

"My lord sent a military proposal to the Ministry of Military Affairs last month, and there is a response," Hu Zhiyong said, "I don't have anything good to say..."

Seeing that Lin Fu was in a bad mood, Lin Meng stopped talking.

In order to understand the basic situation of the Hu Hu in Yandong and Yanxi, the Ministry of Military Intelligence dispatched a number of guards to infiltrate the Northland disguised as prisoners.

When Su Hu was on the frontier, the Huhus in Yandong, who belonged to the Ye Ji department, had less than 200,000 adults, which was too overwhelming for the frontier army at that time. In ten years, the number of Ding Zhuang would be 20,000. Only decrease not increase.

In the past ten years or so, the Yandong Zhuhus headed by the Ye Ji Ministry have fought fiercely with their clans several times, mobilizing around 100,000 troops.

In Yandong Zhuhu, where the military system of the tribe and the army and the people are integrated, this is almost the limit.

Its elite standing army, also known as the King's Account Army, is only 10,000 people in size.

The dynasty has always used this to estimate the strength of the Huhus in Yandong.

The actual situation has changed a lot. First of all, among the captive soldiers, in addition to the regular soldiers of Ding Zhuang, there are also slave soldiers, also known as Hu soldiers, to which the regular soldiers belong. There are even a large number of Goryeo people who are willing to be driven by the Hus to loot the south and other Hu people who have been conquered by the Yeji Department. The Yandong Zhu Hu, headed by the Ministry, attacked from east to west, captured and directly attached Ding Zhuang to nearly a million.

In order to transform these Ding Zhuang into the fighting power of the Donghu people, the slaving king Yejier restructured some enslaved soldiers who had been fighting with the Donglu for a long time, so that they would settle down in Liaodong as a military household of Shibing and be incorporated into the army. Different from the main soldier, it is called the deputy soldier.

After this restructuring, the Yandong military system was changed to organize a cavalry team in the proportion of "one main soldier, three horses, and one auxiliary soldier and one stalwart soldier". It also ensures that the Donghu people can easily mobilize 100,000 cavalry under normal circumstances, and can mobilize 300,000 cavalry troops under extreme circumstances.

In addition, the captive king Yejier, in addition to the elite cavalry of the king's account army, also chose to surrender more than ten thousand strong and brave people to form the Han battalion as a standing army.

Today, the Donghu people maintain more than 100,000 cavalry in the direction of Datong. In these more than 100,000 cavalry, in addition to the main soldiers, deputy soldiers, and squires recruited from the Yandong Huhus, the Yanxi Huhus who belonged to the Yeji Department also sent The participation of the cavalry means that at this time in Liao and Liaoyang, the Donglu seems to be empty, but they still have a strong military mobilization ability, which should not be underestimated.

Regarding this point, Lin Fu fully communicated with Li Zhuo through Gao Zongting - even if the Donglu can mobilize 300,000 soldiers and horses, but if the time is a little longer, the economic damage to the Donglu's interior will be great. Go to war and production will be wasted.

Donghu was huge at this time, and everything was a vassal state, so that they could no longer rely entirely on looting for a living.

In fact, after Donglu mastered Liaodong, their social production structure changed from fishing, hunting and looting, supplemented by farming, to farming and looting, supplemented by fishing and hunting.

In the 9th year of Chongguan, the big bandit border, Donglu recruited his clan, and the most fundamental purpose was to seize a sufficient number of farmers from the border.

Li Zhuo led his troops northwards, cautiously, walking on thin ice, also trying to drag them. Even if the Donglu did not withdraw from Datong, they should be forced to mobilize more troops to bring down the Donghu one step ahead economically. There was absolutely no intention of rushing to fight or even fighting to the death in western Liaoning.

This kind of thinking of Li Zhuo has no market above the temple and is isolated.

In order to support Li Zhuo, Lin Fu and Gu Wuchen both wrote to discuss the situation of the Huhus in Yanshan, hoping that the imperial court could reassess the strength of Donglu and make appropriate military deployments.

Lin Fu and Gu Wuchen's submission was naturally a stone falling into the lake, and there was a ripple, and then there was no sound.

Lin Fu heard Zhang Xie's comments on the military proposal he presented from the mouths of others: "Little Huaidong, I got lucky with a few military exploits, so I started talking about state affairs!" Existence, Zhang Xie and others above the temple directly denied it. From their point of view, the captive Dingkou should think about resisting and fleeing. How can there be a reason to turn around for the tiger and follow the alien race to plunder the Central Plains?

It is only the end of the world, sober people are always in the minority, always isolated, while those who steal from temples and Emperor Chongguan think they are wise, and now it is an edict after an edict urging Li Zhuo to fight quickly in western Liaoning - yes The Hu Hu of Yandong has undergone tremendous and profound changes in the past ten years. Without a detailed and full understanding, it is difficult to ensure that the Yanshan line of defense can be guaranteed, not to mention knowing ourselves and our enemies.

Hearing that Lin Mengde said that Jiang Ning's style was the same, Lin Fu felt that the future was bleak. He waved his hand and ended the discussion. He asked everyone to go back to rest first, and he stayed in the official hall to sit still.

Song Jia first helped Lin Fu draft a reply letter to Jiang Ning, and it was drafted in a moment. Seeing Lin Fu frowning, she said softly, "Should Huaidong prepare for the complete collapse of the Yanbei line of defense?"

"What do you think to prepare?" Lin Bie asked.

Song Jia said: "If Li Zhuo is defeated, the imperial court can't move the capital in a hurry, and will inevitably call the army to King Qin in Jingqin again. Will Huaidong send troops?" Looking at Lin Fu with dazzling eyes, Er asked boldly again, "You Are you willing to sacrifice Huaidong's generals for the Yuan clan again?"

Lin Fu looked up at Song Jia, looking at her charming eyes, with a strange light that ordinary women can't see, indifferent to her bold and presumptuous temptation, only asked: "You are sure that Li Bingbu will meet in western Liaoning. defeat?"

"When Li Zhuo was in Dongmin, he had Chen Xinbo in the imperial court to support him, so he was able to draw a tie with Duke Wenzhuang; now, the enemies standing opposite Li Zhuo, except the Donghu people, Zhang Xie, Hao Zongcheng and others, all want to send him to him. Pushing in the fire pit, he is isolated and helpless on the temple, he wants to tie again, it is difficult!" Song Jia said.

"What do you think of Huaidong's attack on Mindong?" Lin Fu suddenly changed the subject.

"Yanshan's defense line collapses, and the Hu iron cavalry is about to go south. If Huaidong wants to survive and Jiangning cannot perish, it will first destroy the ability of Zhejiang and Fujian to advance north. This is something you will do no matter how cruel it is. I am a little girl, What do you think?" Song Jia said, "Even my father would never approve of the decisive battle between the Zhejiang-Fujian Navy and the Huaidong Navy. A narrow victory is useless, but if we lose, the Minjiangkou, Qianjiangkou, and Yongjiangkou will be in place. Huaidong will have nothing in his eyes, and will become the backyard gate of the Huaidong Navy... When you come back this time, I think you will expand the second and third water battalions. Strike harder!"

"Oh!" Lin Bie sighed deeply, nodded again, and admitted that she guessed right.

Huaidong's attack on eastern Fujian and southern Zhejiang would not miss the Song family alone. Obviously, before Huaidong showed enough strength, the Song family would never abandon the extravagant family and defend itself.

He thought Song Jia would be uneasy, but he didn't expect her to be able to see it. Women, women's minds are really hard to guess.

"When I come back this time, I'm going to go around the north first, will you accompany me there?" Lin Fu asked.

Song Jia glanced at Lin Bing and said, "Okay."

The Guanyintan Shipyard is making every effort to build warships. The second and third water battalions will be expanded to six battalions. The number of main and auxiliary soldiers is 5,000, and the total strength of the Huaidong Navy will reach 15,000.

The Haidong battalion will also add 1,000 troops, mainly to increase the naval force in the Haidong area.

In this way, 5,000 Jianrui will be dispatched from the labor camp~www.wuxiaspot.com~ However, the labor camp will also supplement some Ding Zhuang from the resettlement of refugees, so as to ensure sufficient manpower for defending the seawall and constructing the seawall, and also to ensure that Huaihe River The reserves of the Eastern Army are sufficient.

Compared with the short-term militia rotation training, in addition to fighting without weapons and high-intensity training, the formation, organization, and battalion work and rest are the same as those of the regular army, and they also take five days a month for military training.

The officers of the workers' battalion are not only selected from each army, but also selected from the troop soldiers. The officers have plans to send them to the war training school for military training.

Even as a reserve soldier, the equipment and armor are better than the so-called elite soldiers in the refugee army.

Of course, most of the soldiers in the current workers' camps are former generals of the refugee army who have surrendered.

Although the food for the soldiers is not good, they can guarantee a full supply of two catties of meat, four catties of fish, four catties of eggs, and rice every month.

When the tens of thousands of soldiers from the Rebellion Army came to Chongzhou, they were all skinny, with yellow faces and thin muscles. Over the past year or so, although the intensity of training and **** repairing has been very intense, with sufficient food supply, almost all of them can be regarded as good. Jian Yong. The long hours of work and rest in the camp also made them accustomed to the organization and discipline of the Huaidong Army.

Even if the troops are recruited on a large scale to supplement each army, as long as the initial adaptation period is passed, the combat power of each army will not drop too much.

Huaidong needs to form a system, and the seawall defense planned to be completed before next summer is of great significance. When Lin Bie has time, he always has to go to see the construction of the seawall, hoping that if there is any problem, he can solve it quickly.

On the other hand, Lin Fu hopes to take the opportunity of repairing the seawall to expand the number of workers and battalions to 100,000 people; it is no longer necessary to wait for the seawall to be repaired, and at the same time, he can call some of the troops to increase the intensity of reclamation and planting. .
