I Xiaoxiong

Chapter 231 Mountain Town
"It's really an internal and external trouble."

Fu Jinchuan sighed.It was not surprising that Aye was able to obtain information about Hexi.After all, he has been the Hexi Jiedushi for three years.

Now the Hexi Festival Mansion has many decorations in Qingtang and Jinzhang, all of which were handwritten by Fu Maoxiu when he was in office.

Then a thought came to his mind, and Fu Jinchuan continued to ask: "Qingtang is going to send troops, could it be Jiannan Dao?"

Fu Maoxiu took an examination of the school and asked, "How do you know?"

"Qingtang wants to attack our Great Jin, it is nothing more than Hexi, Longyou and Jiannan Dao. There are 5000 frontier troops in Hexi, and [-] people in Longyou, and all of them are famous generals. Only Jiannan Dao has few soldiers. , there are only more than [-] permanent soldiers and horses, and it was enough to guard against Qingtang, but the Red Lotus Army brought disaster to Shuzhong. , will also want to take advantage of the situation, which is a godsend opportunity for Qingtang."

After hearing this, Fu Maoxiu nodded and said: "That's right. But have you ever thought about whether the Red Lotus Army will cooperate with Qingtang Li Yingwai to attack the officers and soldiers?"

Fu Jinchuan's expression changed instantly. Fu Maoxiu's question was no longer a question of whether it would be possible. It was almost certain that the two parties must be connected.And what Fu Maoxiu said next surprised him even more.

"You have been on the road for a month, so you probably don't know that Fang Qiu and Fang Jiao, the main force of the Red Lotus Army, have entered the Guanzhong from the Heishui Valley, and then entered Shu from the Guanzhong via the Tangluo Road. When all the troops meet, counting the time, it is almost the time when you set off from Yangzhou."

After hearing the news, Fu Jinchuan stood dumbfounded on the spot.

He rushed from Yangzhou to Shangjing at the end of March. At that time, the Red Lotus Army had just entered Shu, and the news had not yet come.And this month was on the boat, and as soon as he arrived in Shangjing, he went directly to face the saint.

Emperor Daojun didn't tell him the latest battle situation in Daming Palace, and he only learned about the current situation from his father when he got home.

Fu Jinchuan's face became extremely solemn.He is one of the most famous generals among the younger generation of the imperial court. He naturally knows how much the main force of the Red Lotus Army entering Shu, and the Qingtang Army's invasion of the country, will have much impact on the situation in Jiannan Road.

It is precisely because it is clear that it will not be taken lightly.

"Your Majesty intends to set up a Jiedu envoy of Jiannan Road to unify the armies and deal with the situation in central Shu. However, if there are more than [-] prefectures in Jiannan Road, if a Jiedu envoy is established, the power will be too heavy. So it is still here. hesitate."

"Now the dispatch of soldiers and horses in Jiannan Road is the king of Shu who stays in Nanjing to rule. You should have heard of the king of Shu. He is a scholar with a soft temper. If it is a peaceful day, he is a good hand in governing the people. Now that the army is in chaos, it is difficult for him to command the army to occupy the enemy, not to mention that there are tigers in the front yard and wolves in the backyard, "

Fu Jinchuan was born as an honorable man, so he is naturally aware of the style of the King of Shu.

It can be said that it is very good.

very good.

It is even better than King Wu's reputation in Jiangnan before the uprising.

Shu people call it "Shu Bodhisattva".This is not to say that he believed in Buddhism, but because he stayed behind in Nanjing and ruled the military and political power in Central Shu, but he was willing to do good deeds.

It stands to reason that such a person should be feared, after all, a prince.

In the words of a certain prince: "If you don't do things like bullying men and women, robbing land and so on, it seems that you can't sleep well at night."

But the king of Shu has such a good reputation, but it seems that he has not received the suspicion of the emperor, which also makes many princes feel a little bit aggrieved.

But now to set up the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion in Jiannan Road, it is necessary to divide most of the power in the hands of the King of Shu.

Before that, the king of Chu was moved from Xiangzhou to Anzhou, and he stayed in Tokyo to become the prince Wei Wang, and the governor of Yuezhou became the prince Qi Wang. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the court treats the vassal king of Yuanzong Still a little defensive.

"Then let me go to Beijing, but want me to go to Jiannan Road?"

Fu Jinchuan asked the most critical question.

Fu Maoxiu couldn't give him an answer, because he didn't know.

"Letting you go to Beijing is indeed for another appointment, but the specific place to go is still under discussion. When it comes to discussing matters, I will also ask you."

After hearing this, Fu Jinchuan was a little surprised, still not conclusive?Call him back?Isn't this a joke.
"The imperial court has not yet made a final decision on the establishment of Jiannan Jiedushi. Even if it really wants to set up Jiannan Jiedushi, the candidate may not be you. It may be Longyou Jiedushi Zhang Renyuan or Hexi Jiedushi. He Ba Guangsi will go to Jiannan, and then you will fill the vacant position, or I will go to Jiannan Road, and you will stay in Shangjing."

Fu Jinchuan nodded after hearing this. If Aye went to Jiannan Road, his elder brother joined the army in the marshal Xingyuan, and he led the army in Yangzhou, and his second uncle was still the governor of Qingzhou, the military power held by the Fu family outside would be too great.

So if Aye is really asked to go to Jiannan Road, he and his second uncle will probably be transferred back to Shangjing as officials.

This is also an unwritten rule.

"If it's according to your idea, where do you want to go?"

"Of course I stayed in Shangjing."

This answer did not meet Fu Maoxiu's expectations, he stroked his long beard and smiled, "Okay, remember, anyone who asks will say that."

Fu Jinchuan smiled and said, "I really want to stay in Shangjing and enjoy a few years of leisure."

If other young people talk like this, they will be scolded by their elders for not thinking about making progress. They are only in their early twenties and don't want to make contributions but think about leisure?

But when Fu Sanlang said this, it was different.

Many people, even family members, hoped that he could enjoy a few years of leisure in Shanghai.

Even when he went to be the governor of Yangzhou, he didn't expect to fight so many battles.

It is hard to say whether it is a good thing or a bad thing for such a young man to achieve so many military exploits and have such a great reputation.

After all, when the water is full, it overflows, and when the moon is full, it loses.

There is another saying that if a tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it.

Among the same generation, it is difficult to find someone who can be compared with Fu Sanlang.

Even if the Emperor Daojun and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were not suspicious, there would still be countless censors who would bluntly speak out about Fu Jinchuan's threat, and some young people would slander and slander in various ways.

This is inevitable.

Therefore, it is good for the court and for yourself to restrain your sharpness appropriately.

But right now, it's clear that God has failed to fulfill his wishes.

The noble ministers of Chaozhong Xun also died of fatal illnesses in the past two years.

Duke Dingguo was old and sick, Duke Wei died of illness, Marquis Dingnan died of illness, Marquis Wuyang, Marquis Pingbei, Marquis Anyuan and other court generals were appointed, the court can actually use it There are actually not many senior and famous generals.

So at this time, Fu Jinchuan, unless Fu Maoxiu went to Jiannan Road, it was impossible for him to stay in Shangjing.

The situation does not allow.

Even now, putting a general with such a reputation in a peaceful place like Yangzhou is a bit of a "reckless waste".

"By the way, Fu Bai fought well in Shannan some time ago. Together with the Longwu Army and the Ping Japanese Army, he defeated one of the Honglian Army and beheaded thousands of people. He also guarded Junzhou safely. It depends on how he uses his troops. He is like a general. wind."

While talking, Fu Maoxiu took out another military report, which was a summary of Zhao Fubai's previous battles in Shannan.

Hearing Zhao Fubai, Fu Jinchuan was also interested. After all, he was the one who brought him here, and he was also his brother-in-law. He picked up the military newspaper and read it.

After seeing it, he smiled and said: "It's too stable, and the timing of the pursuit is too late. If I were under Wudang City, I would have to lead the army to attack, and I can wait until the Red Lotus Army attacks the city? What kind of tunnels and trenches should I build?"

Fu Maoxiu didn't accuse his son of arrogance when he heard the words. If the generals who lead the army don't have such arrogance, what kind of soldiers would they bring?But he still pointed out the situation his son-in-law faced at that time.

"When Fu Bo and I went to Hebei, there was only one capital with more than [-] troops. This is the first time that we have commanded [-] troops in Shannan Road. It is inevitable that we will not be able to catch up. Behind Junzhou is Dengzhou, where Marshal Xingyuan is. , it should be more secure."

Fu Jinchuan nodded after hearing this. Although what he said was serious and full of omissions, this standard is his standard.

In this way, Zhao Fubai's performance in Shannan Road is really not enough.

But only in terms of Zhao Fubai's age and qualifications, as well as his command of an army of [-] troops, it is remarkable.

The phrase "the wind of a general" is also worthy.

As for Fu Jinchuan, he was already a general.

Like a mountain, it can be a town.
