Lord of the House

Vol 9 Chapter 22: king of the world

The cavalry scattered their vigilance in the wind and snow. The thatched roof of the simple shed was squeaked by the strong wind, and the thatch was constantly blown up, caught in the boundless snow and drifting to the distance.

That white silk cloth fell on the snow, and the words "running out of food" were written in blood, which was particularly dazzling!

Gao Zongting went all the way south and suffered a lot. His thighs were bruised and **** due to riding, and it was not until Shanyang was given the wound medicine that he came over in a carriage. At this time, his beard and hair were messy, his clothes were ragged, his appearance was not much better than that of a beggar, and his physical strength was even worse. If it wasn't for Cao Zi'ang taking Lao ginseng to feed him medicine in Shanyang, it is still a matter of choice whether he can support Yanqing.

Previously, there were rumors in the capital that Li Zhuo's intentions were wicked. Recently, he collapsed due to the victory of Songshan, but if the news of Gao Zongting's secret visit to Huaidong leaked out at this time, Li Zhuo would have a hundred mouths to clear the suspicion of wicked intentions.

Lin Fu didn't pick up the blood book on the ground, and didn't even look at Gao Zongting's haggard eyes and pinned his hopes on Huaidong. Thirty or fifty paces away, and even the cavalry on the periphery only swayed with a vague influence.

Cao Ziang hesitated to speak, but gave up in despair, standing aside without a word.

Song Jia looked at the blood book on the ground, and then at Lin Fu's slightly thin back.

No food, how?

The Jinhai Grain Road maintains the lifeline of Gyeonggi. Even if it is interrupted by an "accident", the grain stored in Gyeonggi and the grain and forage controlled by the commander of the Jizhen Army, which is located in Changli and controlled by Hao Zongcheng, can still support it for a month or two.

Inside and outside the court, the vast majority of people believe that a once and for all solution to the border troubles in the Liao territory is within reach. If it was only due to accidents such as "shipwreck", "grain merchant uproar" or "Korean attack", the imperial court requested the Huaidong Military Division and the Dengzhou Navy to work together to restore the smooth flow of the grain route. , most likely will be even more impatient to urge Li Zhuo to use troops from Songshan to Liaoyang.

Even if Huaidong made all kinds of threats, it would not work.

Don't talk about Jiangning's side, Yanjing's side is likely to pinch its nose and first recognize any conditions proposed by Huaidong: that is, the price of grain will increase by 30% or 50%, and the extra grain and silver produced in a month will only be ten or twenty. Wanliang. The Ministry of Households can't support it for a year or two, but it can still support it for a month or two.

Even if Lin Fu used the Jinhai food route to coerce the land to seal the king, the imperial court might agree first - but the imperial court would put all their hopes on the battle of western Liaoning, hoping that the border troubles in the Liao territory would be completely resolved. Free up your hands to clean up these Huaidong warlords with big tails.

In addition to Huaidong's neat and tidy cutting off the food route, the imperial court was clearly coerced to give up its military adventure in western Liaoning.

By doing this, Huaidong may save the Jibei Army from the brink of destruction, and may prevent the Yanbei line from collapsing in an instant, but what consequences will Huaidong bear?

The national thief referred to by thousands of people is also!

With his face torn apart, Jinhai's food supply could not be maintained. After Li Zhuo retired, the first thing the court did to survive this winter was probably to move the capital to Jiangning.

Huaidong will be the first warlord force to be removed by the Yuan clan after the imperial capital moved southward.

If Lin Fu wanted to save his life, he could only lead the crowd out of Huaidong and retreat to Haidong—ah, Haidong!

A thought flashed in Song Jia's mind, is Haidong the retreat that Lin Fu has left for him?

It's no wonder that Li Zhuo thought that Lin Fu would cooperate with him in his plan to extract wages from the bottom of the pile. There are really not many people in the world who can see through Lin Fu's layout.

What choice will Lin Bie make? Will you give up the Huaidong foundation that has managed to achieve such a large scale for the sake of the Yuan family and the people of the world?

What would Fu Qinghe, Lin Mengde, Qin Chengzu, Cao Ziang and others think of this? Will they agree with any decision Lin Bie makes?

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

I don't know how long it took, Lin Fu slowly turned around, looked at Gao Zongting, and asked, "Mr. Gao, tell me: I withdraw from Huaidong, will the Yuan clan have a chance to restore the rule of ZTE?"

There is too much information in the two-character blood book "Breakout", but for Lin Fu, Gao Zongting, Cao Zi'ang and others, there is no need to explain anything in too many words.

Song Jia knew that Lin Fu would not sacrifice anything for the rotten Yuan clan. The Yuan clan could restore the rule of ZTE, and the people of the world would not suffer from the turmoil. Is Zhuo sure to help Yuanshi restore the rule of ZTE?

Gao Zongting pursed his lips, and rubbed his hands on the cotton robe with the fluffy head. Lin Bing's eyes were sharp and deep, and the question was directly pressing on him, like a thousand weights. A meaningless syllable, but finally can't say a word.

"Mr. Gao, please bring three words to Li Shuai!" Lin Bie sat cross-legged, picked up the white silk cloth and spread it on his knees, pulled out the short knife around his waist, cut the **** of his right hand, and wrote three words in blood diagonally: " Ching-kun's side"!

Compared with the word "broken grain", the three **** words "Qingjun's side" are even more shocking!

"Qingjun's side!" Gao Zongting didn't take the blood book returned by Lin Bing, and looked at the three words in blood on the white silk cloth, his face was not surprised, but a wry smile.

Song Jia secretly calculated in her heart: Lin Fu immediately gave up the southern offensive, assembled elites from Huaidong to the north, joined forces with the Tianjin Navy, and could get 20,000 elite infantry and 3,000 elite cavalry.

Although there are 80,000 to 90,000 soldiers and horses stationed in the Yanjing camp, as long as Li Zhuoken cooperates, in the name of attacking Liaoyang, some of the Beijing battalion soldiers and horses are transferred to strengthen the defense of Datong and Linyu. Landing from the Jinhai Sea, the possibility of successfully entering the "Qingjun side" of Yanjing is not low.

Li Zhuo quickly imprisoned Hao Zongcheng and others, and took control of the Jibei Army - Huaidong quickly organized the workers and battalions into an army, and the troops and horses could quickly expand as many as 70,000 or 80,000, and completely control the situation in Huaidong including Weiyang Mansion; Gu Wuchen controlled Jiangning Water Camp, Lin Tingli controlled the Dongyang Army; Dong Yuan and Chen Zhihu were both Li Zhuo's former subordinates, even if they didn't make a choice immediately, most of them would choose to wait and see - that Yue Lengqiu and Zhang Xitong did not establish a new emperor in Jiangning. possible.

The next step is to compromise with Liang Xi and Cao Yiqu...

Of course, this is only an ideal state. Maybe the building collapses suddenly, but it will not be more serious than the consequences of "running out of food".

Song Jia sighed when she saw that Gao Zongting did not accept the blood book.

Cao Zi'ang could also see clearly from the side, Gao Zongting's expression undoubtedly showed that he had offered this trick to Li Zhuo, and he thought to himself: If Li Zhuo could use this trick ruthlessly, it would not be Li Zhuo! He said: "The situation in the north may not be unresolved. As early as two months, as late as March, the Liaodong Bay will melt in spring..."

"I hope so!" Gao Zongting said a difficult sentence. Cao Zi'ang said this as a word of relief. He bowed to Lin Fuzuo again and said, "I have to trouble Huaidong to prepare a boat to send me to Jinhai..." He thought From the coast of Jinhai, go to western Liaoning to meet Li Zhuo.

Lin Bie hesitated. He hoped that Gao Zongting would stay in Huai'an, but seeing that his heart was firm, he would not be able to open his mouth. He waved his hand dejectedly, and said to Cao Zi'ang, "Zi'ang, you can arrange it!"

Cao Zi'ang helped Gao Zongting to get on the carriage, bowed to Lin Shou, got on his horse, and took dozens of cavalry guards. Leaving Sanyang for too long.

Lin Fu was not in the mood to see Zhao Qinmin who had just gone to Yanqing. He climbed into the carriage, called Zhou Pu to his side, and said, "After tonight, go to Yanqing tomorrow..." He got into the carriage, feeling haggard and tired. Exhausted feeling!

Lin Fu didn't say where to spend the night, as long as he didn't go to Yanqing to meet Zhao Qinmin today. When it was getting dark, Zhou Pu took the cavalry to the west and went to camp in Jianling County, and sent someone to Yanqing to inform Sun Jingtang, asking him to find a reason to talk to Zhao Qinmin; Song Jia also got into the carriage to take shelter from the wind and snow.

Westbound against the wind and snow, the cavalry team walked very slowly.

Lin Bie fell into a drowsy sleep in the carriage. When he woke up, he hadn't reached Jianling City yet. It's cold, but the forehead is hot, maybe it's sick.

Lin Bie's illness made Song Jia, Zhou Pu and others panic.

Lin Fu is a martial arts practitioner~www.wuxiaspot.com~ suffers from pain in his muscles and bones. He won't get sick easily.

Zhou Pu wanted to send someone to Chongzhou to invite a medical officer to come over, but Lin Fu didn't agree. He only said that he was not so delicate and would be fine to go to Jianling to rest for a night, but he couldn't control his body and fought a cold war.

Song Jia remembered what Lin Fu said when he was guarding Tang Haoxin's tomb. The person who had the deepest influence on Lin Fu in this world, apart from Tang Haoxin, was probably Li Zhuo, whose relationship was not very deep. How could Gao Zongting come to see Lin Bie with the blood book?

Lin Fu was Huaidong's plan and refused to cooperate with Li Zhuoxing's plan of "cutting food and raising wages". Lin Fu's heart was hit harder than outsiders imagined.

If it is said that Xiongxiong, Lin Fu may not be qualified to be called Xiongxiong. He is not black enough, his methods are not vicious enough, and he has too many worries in his heart-maybe after this pass, Lin Fu will not be so worried and worried, right? Maybe this is where Lin Bie is better than others.

There may be no shortage of ruthless heroes in the world.

Song Jia hugged Lin Bie, who was fighting a cold war, in her arms, and wanted to use the body temperature with a faint fragrance to make him feel warmer.

Lin Bie was ill, although his body was uncomfortable and his head was dizzy, but his brain was not so burnt out. Lying in Song Jia's arms, he chanted softly: "When drunk, turn on the lamp and look at the sword. Moxibustion under his command, the sound of fifty strings turning over the front of the fortress. Autumn in the field of troops. The horse made Lu Fei fast, the bow is like a thunderbolt string.

Song Jia didn't know that Lin Fu was reading someone else's words. He heard him sing softly. Although the words were full of arrogance, he thought he was talking about Li Zhuo? Only what Li Zhuo thinks in his heart is "the king of the world". Think about Li Zhuo's loyalty to the Yuan family, which is full of heart and death, and what will be the end of it?
