Lord of the House

Vol 11 Chapter 64: Yu

Yue Lengqiu and Tang Xitai arrived in Yuzhang by boat on the third day of June and entered the city through the water gate.

Upon receiving the news that the ship had entered the city, Lin Fuzheng, Fu Qinghe, Gao Zongting and others were discussing matters in the hall of the Xingyuan, and said with a smile, "I should personally go to the pier to pick up this old boss..."

Gao Zongting laughed.

Lin Fu served as the governor of Jinghai, and Yue Lengqiu oversaw Jianghuai; Lin Fu also knew Chongzhou, and Yue Lengqiu was in charge of Jianghuai; Lin Fu also knew Hailing, and Yue Lengqiu was in charge of Jianghuai; Lin Fu served as the director of Huaidong System and Yue Lengqiu. In charge of Jiangning's military department, and as deputy minister and deputy envoy of the imperial battalion - Yue Lengqiu has been Lin Fu's boss for several years. As long as Lin Fu is appointed to the Privy Council after the Jiangning war, Yue Lengqiu can only "resign" to the Privy Council. Deputy.

Lin Fu was going to greet Yue Lengqiu, and Fu Qinghe, Gao Zongting and others prepared their carriages and horses to accompany him to meet him.

The car is a four-wheeled car made by Huaidong. At this time, the weather is hot, the car panel is removed, and the canopy is placed on the top. A large car can comfortably seat seven or eight people. However, after going out, the sight of Yuzhang City was broken, which made people unable to get excited.

It has been less than a month since the Huaidong Army took over Yuzhang, and this county-governed city has not recovered its vitality from the war, and there are traces of war burning everywhere.

The luxury family stationed in Yuzhang, before the Huaidong Army came, ransacked Yuzhang City, and set fire to the county town. The resistance army in Meiling then entered the city and put out the fire, but Yuzhang City was not. Nearly halfway through the fire, there are fire-burned ruins everywhere. There was only a solid wall around the city, and the Zhejiang and Fujian troops had no time to destroy it in a hurry. It was still well preserved, and only a few Qiaolou on the city were burned down.

In the past, the 20,000-household large city was taken over by the Huaidong Army, and there were only less than 3,000 households left.

"Now I can't allocate a lot of money to renovate Yuzhang City," Lin Fu sat in the car and said to Fu Qinghe and Gao Zongting, "If the hidden danger of Yuanzhou can be removed smoothly, Jiangxi Prefecture can be moved to Jiangzhou. Go, Yuzhang is still here to be rebuilt in the future..."

"I don't know if Huang Binghao will enter the palace. If Huang Binghao just wants to occupy Yuanzhou at this time, he can only let him go," Fu Qinghe said, "Then Yuzhang has to be guarded, and the three or five thousand elite soldiers still have to stay. down."

Jiangxi has several key points:

The first is Ganzhou, which is located in the middle reaches of the Ganjiang River, along the river, 800 miles away from Yuzhang.

Guangnan is a grass on the wall, whichever side is stronger will fall.

When the She family was powerful, Guangnan officials secretly colluded with the She family Quyi, ceded the land and kept their own territory, withholding the taxes in recent years, and disobeying Jiangning's orders. Back to Guangnan.

However, the development of Guangnan was relatively late, the Han and barbarians lived together, and the number of households was less than 200,000, which made the powerful clans in Guangnan dare not have the ambition to cede territory and become kings. His attitude gradually softened, and he began to draw a line from the extravagant family.

This time, when the She family was completely defeated in Jiangxi, Guangnan sent people to Yuzhang to describe the difficulties of having to cater to the She family in the early years; the people from Guangnan sent Lin Fu to Jiangning a few days earlier.

No matter what posture Guangnan takes, only fists are useful when speaking in the world.

Lin Fu sent Chen Zuo to lead his troops into Ganzhou to rest. On the one hand, he incorporated the resistance forces in southern Gansu and temporarily guarded the southern Gansu area. On the other hand, he also wanted to warn Guangnan.

If Guangnan is dishonest, the Huaidong Army can go south along the Ganjiang River at any time and enter Guangnan via Yuchengling Road, so as to calm their disobedience.

Outside of Ganzhou, there is Jiangzhou. Jiangzhou is the northern gateway to Jiangxi, guarding the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, bordering Jingchu to the north, and the southern foot of Huaishan on the other side. It will also be the key point of confrontation between the north and the south in the future. Now Jinghai Third Water Battalion and Ao Canghai lead the Changshan Army in the early stage. Settled in Jiangzhou.

Shangrao is the eastern gateway of Jiangxi, connecting to Quzhou in western Zhejiang, but after the war in Shangrao ended, Shangrao became the hinterland of Huaidong, and now it is necessary to restore the passage between Quzhou and Shangrao as soon as possible, so that the materials between the two places can resume circulation, in order to help livelihood recovery.

Yuzhang is the hinterland of the entire Ganjiang River and the Poyang Lake Plain. It has always been the economic and political and military area of ​​Jiangxi. Going southwest from Yuzhang, it is Yuanzhou, which is the western gateway of Jiangxi and connects with Xiangtan.

The traitor Huang Binghao did not cross the river north with the luxury family, nor did he have time to escape from Yuanzhou, which is 400 miles away from Yuzhang. Now Huang Binghao and his subordinate Chen Zishou led more than 30,000 soldiers and horses to defend Yuanzhou. To belong to Jiangning, in fact, fight the idea of ​​ceding the land and becoming independent.

Gao Zongting had just returned from Yuanzhou, and Huang Binghao offered a bargaining chip to serve as Yuanzhou's envoy and move his clan to Yuanzhou for resettlement.

Although Lin Fu said that he ordered Ao Canghai to detain the Huang clan in Pengze, in fact, Huang Binghao's relatives had asked Shewenzhuang to send someone to Yuanzhou long before the Shejia crossed the river——

Huang Binghao's hidden danger is not small, but from Yuzhang to Yuanzhou, the road is obstructive and dangerous, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

At this time, Huang Binghao opened the bargaining chip to separate Yuanzhou, and there was obviously Tanzhou behind it. Even if he wanted to send troops to attack Yuanzhou, it would be difficult to attack Yuanzhou in a short time; the situation in the north was so urgent that it was difficult for Lin Fuwei to choose.

If Huang Binghao was really comfortable with Yuanzhou, he would be left to him for the time being, but Yuzhang had to stay with the elite just in case. However, Lin Fu, Gao Zongting and others were even more worried that Huang Binghao was still colluding with the extravagant family who fled across the river. If this hidden danger was not solved, it would be very fatal.

Lin Bie shook his head and sighed bitterly: "To drive the luxury family out of Jiangxi, it's not really called Jiangnan to settle down, and Tanzhou is also full of bad water. The longer this drags on, the more unfavorable the situation in Jianghuai. It’s not that I’m worried that I won’t be able to win and that Yan Hu won’t be expelled from the Central Plains, but if the war drags on for another year or two, millions of people will be displaced…”

"The lord thinks about the hardships of the people's livelihood, and in the future he will be the shepherd. He should not use the hand of others, and he should not expect others to know the suffering of the people like the lord." Gao Zongting said.

Lin Fu looked at the sparkling river in the distance, and remained silent.

After the Shangrao War, "replacing the Yuan clan" was no longer a particularly taboo topic.

There were only three people in the carriage, and Gao Zongting spoke with a calm and indifferent expression when talking about such sensitive topics as "pro-shepherd". Li Zhuo was loyal and loyal all his life. Gao Zongting was originally a fallen disciple. The first half of his life was rough, but he also wanted to make contributions and serve the court. But after Li Zhuo's death, Gao Zongting completely despaired of the court and Yuan.

Fu Qinghe said: "Before this, Shen Rong was ordered by the Empress Dowager to go to Qiupu to have a secret discussion with Yue Lengqiu, and Yue Lengqiu came to Yuzhang later. On the surface, it seems that he is trying to save the Chizhou army, but maybe he also depends on it. A look at your will?"

"Jiangning is all over the city saying that I have different aspirations, why does Yue Lengqiu need to try again?" Lin Fu asked rhetorically.

"Over the years, Yue Lengqiu can be regarded as aware of the situation. He has the heart of the dragon, so it can't be surprising," Gao Zongting said, "Maybe he doesn't need us to win over, he will put the chips over, but before, How can he confirm it with his own eyes!"

Lin Bie smacked his lips and shook his head lightly, not thinking that the time was ripe.

The wharf was just in front, and Gao Zongting and Fu Qinghe didn't have time to persuade them. They could see many people standing on the river wharf. Yue Lengqiu was standing in the crowd dressed in Tsing Yi. He was tall and thin, and looked very striking.

When we first met in Jinan, it was the winter of the ninth year of Chongguan. It has been eight years since then. During this period, Lin Fu remembered meeting Yue Lengqiu a handful of times. .

In the ninth year of Chongguan, the troops went north to King Yan Jiqin to aid the capital. Although the mountains and rivers were in danger, Lin Fu still remembered Yue Lengqiu's glorious appearance. The resignation is resolute.

Of course, if Yue Lengqiu really wanted to go, why did he come to Yuzhang to run away?

Although Lin Fu's status was higher than Yue Lengqiu at this time, in order to show respect for his "old boss", Lin Fu asked Yue Lengqiu to board the car first, and asked Tang Xitai to accompany them to the same car.

The workshop was just chatting, and Yue Lengqiu also observed the dilapidated scene in Yuzhang City. Seeing that Lin Fu had no intention to clean up Yuzhang City immediately, he also knew that Huaidong's focus on Jiangxi would temporarily be Jiangzhou.

From Tang Xitai, I know that the Cao family has not sent anyone into Jiangxi to contact ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It is speculated that the Cao family has the idea of ​​abandoning Guanzhong, so Huaidong must immediately move the main force north to Jiangzhou and Luzhou to guard against Yan The entry of soldiers into Jinghu caused a severe impact on Jianghuai - this is also the clearest situation.

Before that, Yue Lengqiu knew that Gao Zongting's representative Lin Fu went to Yuanzhou to meet with Huang Binghao. At this time, when he saw Gao Zongting in Yuzhang and beside Lin Fu, Yue Lengqiu thought that Huaidong and Huang Binghao had not yet come to a conclusion. .

However, the Huaidong Army was eager to move the main force to the north, which was very detrimental to the negotiation with Huang Binghao. Huang Binghao would have other thoughts because of this, and he didn't know how Lin Fu would deal with and resolve it.

Back in Xingyuan, let Yue Lengqiu wash and rest first. Taking this opportunity, Lin Fu, Fu Qinghe, and Gao Zongting listened to Tang Xitai's more detailed narration of his journey with Yue Lengqiu.

It should be said that Yue Lengqiu's intentional or unintentional attitude is in line with the judgment of Gao Zongting and Fu Qinghe. Lin Fu did not say anything to Tang Xitai, but said: "Qiao Zhong went to Ganzhou, but the situation in Jiangxi has been repeated. It's possible, you stay in Yuzhang temporarily to help Duke Fu handle political affairs..."

After Zhao Qingshan and Zhang Gou regained northern Fujian, the eastern Fujian and Zhejiang areas will be completely restored, and the situation will not be repeated. I won't send too many elites, but Lin Fu must use trustworthy people to run Jiangxi.

The third division of Changshan Army was newly formed. Lin Fu used Yu Wencheng as the commander of the army. Instead, he sent Hu Qiaozhong to Ganzhou to serve as the prefect. He wanted to use a person who could know military and political affairs in southern Gansu and could deal with them in a timely and decisive manner. The complicated situation in southern Gansu, without having to ask for instructions on everything, delayed the time to deal with it. My QT room is open!
