Lord of the House

(The first one, ask for a red ticket)

The Weiyang Salt and Iron Division set up a field and Cang Yamen in Hecheng, and served as the Caochang Supervisor, Cang Ambassador, Deputy Prime Minister, Deputy Ambassador and other low-level civil servants. Ambassador Cang and the superintendent of Caochang were in charge of the affairs, and the one who came to Chongzhou for help was Song Xiaobo, the superintendent of Hecheng.

Hearing that Song Xiaobo, the superintendent of Hecheng, came to ask for help in person, Lin Fu had a gloomy face and asked people to bring Song Xiaobo in. Unexpectedly, Wang Chengfu also walked in. Lin Fu passed through Jiangmen and met Wang Chengfu. Knowing that he was talented, he took him under his command and made him temporarily participate in the investigation of public fields in the Jiuhua area. Zilang Mountain came to ask for reinforcements.

Lin Fu ignored Wang Chengfu for the time being, and stared at Song Xiaobo, the superintendent of Hecheng.

Song Xiaobo, with a fat body, walked into the conference hall of the Dongya, his face was full of panic, he pushed away the **** who was supporting him, his knees softened, and he knelt down in front of Lin Fu and bowed, crying loudly. Howl: "The Kou soldiers were besieging Hecheng, but Xiaguan fought hard to break out of the siege and came to Chongzhou to ask for reinforcements, and the whole family is still trapped in Hecheng... Please send reinforcements to Hecheng, please, Xiaguan Song Xiaobo is right. Master Lin is grateful for his help, I can't repay it in this life, and I will be a bull and a horse in the next life—"

Seeing the fat on Song Xiaobo's cheeks trembling when he cried, Lin Bie wanted to kick him out of the lobby with hatred.

Obviously it was these incompetent officials who were greedy for life and fear of death, and Wenfeng fled first, causing the defenders to collapse and the Hecheng army to fall into the hands of the East China Sea bandits. Ask for help with a clear face - even if you want to break through the encirclement and ask for help, it will not be his turn, a big fat man weighing 200 to 300 catties to go out - this is only 70 to 80 miles away from the Hecheng military fortress, Lu Haijianghe In the same way, if Song Xiaobo can lead the officers and Yanding to defend the military fortress, let alone two thousand soldiers, even if there are three or four times more soldiers, this side can also be calmly rescued - if the Jiangdong Zuo army is a general, dare to be so greedy Afraid of death, Lin Fu would cut off his head without hesitation to enforce military discipline.

The East China Sea bandits won the Hecheng military fortress without any effort, and gained a foothold at such a critical point. Not only did they directly threaten Chongzhou's belly, but with the Hecheng military fortress as their stronghold, the East China Sea bandits were able to stay in the east waters of Chongzhou for a long time. , to carry out long-term continuous invasion and damage to Chongzhou, Huainan salt field, and Hecheng grassland.

Seeing the fat man kneeling on the ground like a concubine, Lin Bing's eyes were fierce. Looking at the tea cup at hand, he had the urge to pick it up and hit him on the head.

The detailed information on the fall of the Hecheng military fortress is known here. Listening to Song Xiaobo’s bluffing lies about breaking through the siege, everyone in the hall looked down with contempt. Besides, the Hecheng military fortress was particularly important to Chongzhou, and he fell into the hands of the pirates. This made this side completely passive, and hated Song Xiaobo, who was responsible for the city. He couldn't figure out how this fat man had the face to go to Chongzhou to ask soldiers to help him retake Hecheng?

Hecheng Grassland belongs to the Weiyang Salt and Iron Division, and is not under the jurisdiction of the Jiangdong County Division. On the bright side, Song Xiaobo wants to ask reinforcements to retake the Hecheng Army Fortress. He should also ask the Salt and Iron Division to send troops. The Chengsi army was completely seized by the Kou Bing, unless the Kou Bing voluntarily retreated, and if he forcibly recaptured it, he would have to pay a very heavy price.

Wang Chengfu looked at everyone in the hall with gloomy expressions on their faces. Don't say that Song Xiaobo, who did not give up the city and escaped, was taken seriously by Lin Fu, and no one in the hall took the initiative to stand up to lift Song Xiaobo from the ground, and hurriedly walked away for the first two days. He took a step and stood at the foot of the hall and said loudly: "Chongzhou and Hecheng are adjacent to each other. It is the responsibility of helping each other in the same boat and guarding against pirates. Don't ask Master Song, Master Lin will also send troops to help Hecheng..."

Everyone in the hall was full of dissatisfaction with Song Xiaobo, who abandoned the city and fled. Lin Fu also had a gloomy face, and made a gesture to drive Song Xiaobo out, but Wang Chengfu stood up to speak for Song Xiaobo ignorantly, Hu Zhicheng reprimanded: "Here How can you speak, you are not in Jiuhua, who told you to come back?"

Wang Chengfu didn't mind, and said, "Chengfu met Lord Song in Jiuhua early in the morning, who was planning to go to Weiyang Mansion to ask for help. He thought that because of the danger of Hecheng, when Weiyang's reinforcements arrived, he was afraid that Kou Bing had already been sent. After gaining a firm foothold in Hecheng, I followed Lord Song and came to Chongzhou to ask for help—the Jiangdong Zuo army was very powerful and could not be defeated.

"How could it be so easy?" Hu Zhicheng said angrily.

Cao Ziang gestured not to let Hu Zhicheng say more. He knew that Lin Fu attached great importance to Wang Chengfu, but he had just taken him under his command, and he had no chance to reuse it. Seeing that he was talking nonsense, his eyes were blurred, as if If there was anything else that was inconvenient to speak out in person, he said, "Master Song has come from a long way to ask for help. I am tired from hunger and thirst. Should I let Master Song take a rest first? Whether to send troops or not, we have to fill our stomachs before we can discuss."

Only then did Lin Fu hold back his anger and said to Wu Meijiu, "Please accompany Mr. Wu on your behalf..."

Wu Meijiu was of the same rank as Song Xiaobo, so he should accompany him. He also wondered how Song Xiaobo would come to Lin Bing to make fun of him? Seeing that Lin Fu didn't mean to help Song Xiaobo stand up, the rabbit died and the fox was sad. He and Wang Chengfu lifted Song Xiaobo's plump body from the paved floor, his hands were very heavy, and he doubted whether he could stand up by himself.

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

Due to the presence of Gu Siyuan and others, when Wu Meijiu accompanied Song Xiaobo to the side hall to rest, and Cao Ziang and Fu Qinghe were not allowed to accompany them, Lin Fu simply asked Wang Chengfu to accompany him to the back room to speak.

Lin Fu sat down, looked at Wang Chengfu standing in front of him, and asked, "You say, what reason do I have to help Song Xiaobo retake Hecheng?"

"I persuaded Song Xiaobo to turn to Chongzhou. I wanted to come to see the adults directly, but I didn't want to meet Wu Meijiu, so I couldn't tell the adults first," Wang Chengfu said. Will your lord send troops to retake the Hecheng Fortress? Can your lord tolerate the Hecheng army fortress falling into the hands of the pirates for three months or even longer?"

"The cavalry battalion and the Chongzhou Infantry battalion have been assembled. If you don't come, you have to set off at noon. First, gather along the Yunyan River to prevent the bandits from advancing westward." Lin Fu treated Wang Cheng with sincerity, and these things were unnecessary. To hide it from him, he said, "Hecheng falls into the hands of the pirates, and the harm is very great. Not to mention three months, one month is too long."

The Hecheng military fortress is located at the key point, directly threatening Chongzhou's abdomen, and one day it falls into the hands of pirates, and Chongzhou does not want peace for a day. Not only will it affect the harvesting of autumn grains, but also dredging of rivers and fortifications will be greatly delayed.

The most important thing is that ships from Chongzhou go to sea and take the black water ocean route, and they can reach Jinhai in three or five days.

Lin Fu had long planned to arrange a navigator at Hecheng Port, and then seize Daheng Island, forming a horn with Changshan Island, restricting the east China Sea pirates from north, and thoroughly ensuring the safety of the route from Chongzhou Jiangkou to Heishuiyang. It can organize large-scale grain transportation ships from Chongzhou to the sea and north.

He didn't want his plan to be implemented, and the Hecheng Military Fortress was taken away by the East China Sea bandits. At this moment, it seemed as if his throat fell on the enemy's opponent. At this time, he was afraid that the She family would see the key point of the Hecheng Fortress and insisted desperately. Of.

Even at the expense of making the secret camp of Changshan Island open to the world, Lin Fu has to concentrate his forces to take back the Hecheng Army Fortress, but he hates Song Xiaobo, a greedy and incompetent person who harms the situation, even if he wants to take back Hecheng. The city army was blocked, and he didn't want Song Xiaobo to take advantage of it.

Although the Hecheng military fortress is located at the mouth of the river, the battlement is complete in shape and solid, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. How easy is it to force it back?

Therefore, Lin Fucai especially hates Song Xiaobo, these incompetent officials who are greedy for life and fear of death. However, the current masterminds of the She family in the two Zhejiang provinces are unlikely to divide their troops on the northern front for a long time. As long as enough pressure is exerted here, the East China Sea bandits are likely to withdraw voluntarily.

"Chengfu heard the old man say a sentence: those who want to do great things must be able to tolerate gentlemen, but also small people-since the adults want to send troops to retake Hecheng, why do you mind letting Song Xiaobo take a boat ride?" Wang Chengfu Immediately after he asked, "I'll ask your lord again, do you want the head of the Hecheng Division to be an incompetent person who is greedy and afraid of life, or does he want to be a talented person with integrity?"

Lin Fu sighed slightly. Although he hated Song Xiaobo for being greedy for life, fearing death, incompetence and despicableness, but just as Wang Chengfu said, if Song Xiaobo is a talented person with integrity, how can Hecheng Grassland allow him to interfere? Rationally, he not only wanted to take back Hecheng, but also helped Song Xiaobo to cover up the crime of abandoning the city and fleeing.

Wang Chengfu observed Lin Fu's expression and continued: "Abandoning the city without fighting and escaping and causing the defenders to collapse, the investigation is a serious crime, but for those who are greedy for life and afraid of death, even if they live a little longer, it is good. Cover up this crime for him, why can he find the palm of your hand today..."

Lin Bie grabbed a hand on the desk, his knuckles were white, and he almost broke the cover. After a while, he released his hand and said, "The Hecheng Military Fortress can't be captured by the pirates without taking it back. How to cover up the crime for Song Xiaobo, you are responsible..."

"Song Xiaobo wants to cover up his crimes, in addition to Li Dai Taozang and finding a ghost to die, he must also do something," Wang Chengfu said calmly, "Hecheng collapsed and scattered into the territory of Chongzhou, please borrow some soldiers. The horses restrained the chaotic troops. In addition to the Hecheng army fortress, there are also nine pavilions in the Hecheng pastures, all of which have a small number of troops stationed. The troops and horses are separated and guarded, and it is not a good climate. Sending troops to seize Crane City, these people will always be successful.”

Lin Fu waved his hand and said, "I'll give you a cavalry to mobilize in the afternoon. You go to Song Xiaobo first and settle his mind." Since he made up his mind to help Song Xiaobo cover up the crime, Lin Fu doesn't need to let him anymore. Feeling unhappy, the secret way Wang Chengfu committed adultery with Cao Yiqu's daughter, ruining the style of Cao's family, and still saving his life, I think someone really pity his talent and can't bear to kill him.

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

Accompanied by Su Tingzhan, She Feixiong boarded the anti-wave seawall of Hecheng Port. The coastline to the east of Hecheng Division is more than 200 miles tortuous. Only this seawall has been built, and other places are directly exposed to the tide. . Normally, when the tide rises, the tidal flats within a range of 20 to 30 miles will be submerged by sea water. When the tide is high, half of the grassland in Hecheng will be submerged.

She Feixiong stood on the anti-wave seawall and looked at the Hecheng military fortress two miles away. The Hecheng Army Fortress, which is more than nine hundred steps and two feet high, is not considered a majestic city in the Central Plains, but it is built with bricks and stones, and stands at the mouth of the Yunyan River. .

Su Tingzhan watched Cheng Yiqun climb up the embankment, stretched out his hand to pull him, and asked, "I checked carefully, Baozi really didn't do anything?"

"I checked inside and out, and it is true that the defenders abandoned the city and fled," Cheng Yiqun said, "The Jiangdong Left Army has only more than 200 soldiers in the western garrison, and there are some soldiers who help defend the civilians, all of which are unbearable. Use, temporarily unable to move eastward."

"Everything is based on caution," Su Tingzhan said, "Lin Bie wanted to do it in Cangnan. First, he gave Xiaobo's head plug to the Donglu easily. In fact, he had already arranged a lot of easy-to-ignite fires in the village. When he counterattacked Xiaobotou Village, he directly closed the gate of the village and set fire to it, and burned more than a thousand soldiers to death in the village.

"No matter how clever this Shuzi is, it can't be considered that the officials and defenders of the Hecheng Division would be so incompetent..." Cheng Yiqun laughed, and there was suspicion that Su Tingzhan was too careful.

Su Tingzhan didn't mind either. Although it didn't take much effort to inadvertently seize the Hecheng military fortress, he had to admit that it was an extraordinary feat, and it was normal for Cheng Yiqun to be somewhat satisfied. Strictly speaking, both Cheng Yiqun and Shu Qingqiu were recruited by the Second Young Master, and Qin Zitan also visited the Shengsi Islands in secret several times, just to replace the Second Young Master to maintain the influence of Cheng Yiqun, a force adapted from Taihu pirates.

They never thought of taking the Hecheng military fortress~www.wuxiamtl.com~ The original plan was to make a strong attack on Hecheng. When the Jiangdong Zuo army came to help, they would take advantage of the situation to retreat north.

In the coastal waters between the Jianghuai and Huaihe Rivers, except for the deep mouths of rivers and lakes, most of the terrain is shoals with extremely shallow drafts. The Jinhai-class and Jiyun-class main battleships of the Jinghai battalion have deep drafts, and they dare not enter shallow water easily. As long as the main battleships of the Jinghai battalion do not participate in the battle, Su Tingzhan is not afraid of engaging in a water battle with the Jinghai battalion in the shallow sea.

Cheng Yiqun asked She Feixiong again: "Occupying this dangerous place, you will have a foothold. Are you sending someone to infiltrate the hinterland of Chongzhou and be caught off guard by the Jiangdong Zuo Army? If you want to make Quan Ciqing fooled, you have to do it here. Just a big fight..."

"It shouldn't go too deep. Right now is not the time for a large-scale battle with the Jiangdong Zuo Army." Su Tingzhan said that the Jiangdong Zuo Army has a cavalry battalion, and the cavalry battalion is only needed for a 60 to 70-mile distance. The hour is only, the generals still have the strength to dismount and fight, and the small force penetrates too deeply, and it is easy to damage the soldiers and lose the generals.

"I will go back to the south in the afternoon, and I will leave this matter to Tingzhan." She Feixiong said.

Hearing that She Feixiong had determined that the northern line was headed by Su Tingzhan, Cheng Yiqun was unhappy and asked directly: "If the Jiangdong Zuo army blocks the outer sea with the boat division, the infantry and the Yantie Division join forces to advance from the western line and attack Hecheng by force. Junseer, how do you deal with it?"

She Feixiong frowned slightly. He also thought that Lin Fu would not be able to tolerate the Hecheng army falling into their hands. It is very likely that he would join forces with Yantiesi's soldiers and horses to force Hecheng. It would be really difficult to retreat or defend. He decided, he thought about it for a while, but he didn't have a decision, he just said: "The momentum must be bigger, Quan Ciqing has not swallowed the hook, you must stick to Hecheng, after Quan Ciqing swallowed the hook, your side will follow the trend. However, everything is mainly based on the Baonan line." My QT room is open! More vulgar official QT room number [9167] Click to enter
