Lord of the House

Chen Zuo was afraid that there would be branches outside the festival, so he got the warrant from Lin Fu, and he took Sun Zhuang and his followers out of the prison on the same day. Via Siyang, he secretly went to Suyu and made contact with the refugee army.

After Cao Ziang disposes of Siyang's military affairs, he returned to Shanyang County to find out that Lin Fu had taken Sun Zhuang and others from their posts and put them into the Chongcheng Infantry Camp, saying: "You throw Sun Zhuang and others into the Chongcheng Infantry Camp, Zhou Pu Now, don't panic with you? It took a lot of effort to capture Sun Zhuang!"

"So before Zhou Pu reacted, I quickly asked Chen Zhuo to take the person away." Lin Bie said with a smile.

"Sun Zhuang has deprived the commander of his general position. He must start from the top soldiers. There is no war to fight in the cavalry camp recently. Sun Zhuang needs to accumulate enough merits to atone for his sins. It's easier said than done?" Song Jia said next to him, "Now use the Chongcheng step. When the battalion landed and attacked southern Zhejiang and northern Fujian, it was easy to accumulate military merit. When General Zhou really wanted to use people, he transferred Sun Zhuang and his troops into the cavalry battalion, and they could also use the blade..."

"It's not easy to get ten first merits and a hundred ranks!" Cao Zi'ang sighed softly.

If in a battle, a 12-man vanguard can achieve a record of killing a hundred enemies, at least it can completely smash the face of the enemy!

In the siege battle, the 12-person vanguard attacked the city head, and they could get a record of killing 100 enemies, and the city was almost captured. The Chongcheng Infantry Battalion was cooperating with the Jinghai Battalion at this time, harassing the hinterland of the luxury family. Occasionally, there would be battles to siege the city and move the village. Such a sharp soldier is indeed needed.

Putting aside Sun Zhuang and others, Cao Zi'ang asked about the treatment of the other generals of the Northern Army. When Sun Zhuang lost the two cities, there were still more than 30 generals leading the family over.

"There are more than 30 people, good and bad, but many people are watching," Lin Bie frowned and said, "Use the best ones, and the unusable ones will be paid as well as their original positions... For the time being, I will treat them like this. Bar."

There are also good generals in the refugee army, such as Zhang Gou, Han Caizhi, etc., but more generals are mixed. Just like Sun Zhuang, who was considered a first-class military general in this world, he also had the bad habits of bloodthirsty and brutality. Many people in the military department are optimistic about Sun Zhuang, but whether he can become a good general of the Ning Zechen and Ao Canghai ranks is hard to say at this time.

The middle and low-level generals of the refugee army are better. After all, their status is low and their posture is low, and they are easy to accept Huaidong's transformation. Inferiority is stubborn, difficult to correct, and difficult to tame.

Although Lin Fu is more concerned about soldiers and a large number of middle and low-level generals, he often has a more exemplary role in the disposal of the refugee army's affiliated generals. It cannot be used usefully, and what is not useful is thrown away as garbage, so it needs to be treated with caution.

Just like the handling of Sun Zhuang, there will be some negative effects. Lin Fu can almost imagine how Liu Tingzhou will roar at him when he knows about this, but Sun Zhuang thinks that "who is kind to him? He should be righteous to anyone.” Keeping them is more useful than killing them.

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

Liu Tingzhou knew that Lin Fu had ordered Sun Zhuang and other lost generals to be taken away from the prison in Shanyang County, and sure enough, he and Tang Shuen, Gao Yi, Liu Yefei and others came over to ask for the crime.

"Sun Zhuang and others are responsible for losing the city. I take away their positions as generals and serve as military pawns. What's wrong with handling them?" Lin Shou sat in the official hall and calmly responded to Liu Tingzhou's accusations.

In addition to punishments such as beheading and beheading, exile and conscription into the army is the most serious punishment these days. However, Lin Fu understood that what Liu Tingzhou wanted to pursue was not the guilt of Sun Zhuang and others, but the responsibility of his army marching eastward.

Liu Tingzhou felt resentment in his heart, but he couldn't grasp Lin Bing's handle. He was very uncomfortable sitting on the hard and cold chair in the official hall.

Lin Fu yawned and said, "Instead of entangled in this, let's discuss how to deal with the funeral! Please note Xiao Kuian's letter to the North Army Commanding Division of the Infantry Division. The situation in Si is severe, and the reorganization of the Northern Army should not be delayed any longer... Does Master Liu have to argue with me about right and wrong on every detail before discussing these matters?"

Of course Liu Tingzhou was reluctant to tell others that he didn't know his priorities, but he was very unwilling to change the subject so easily for Lin Fu.

Liu Shidu said next to him: "The reorganization of the Northern Army should be a top priority, and there should be no delay..."

Lin Fu glanced at Gao Yi and Liu Yefei, meaning that the next thing was the internal affairs of Huaidong, which had nothing to do with them. Gao Yi and Liu Yefei had no choice but to leave first; however, when they left, Liu Yefei glanced at Liu Tingzhou with obvious distrust in his eyes.

The two cities of Suining and Suyu were lost. The former Huaidong Army Infantry Division North Army was considered "the whole army destroyed". Lin Fu promoted Xiao Kuian as the commander of the North Army, reorganized the North Army, and gave the establishment of the 12th battalion - this Xiao Kuian is from Liu Tingzhou.

Liu Tingzhou accused Lin Fu of raising the bandits with self-respect, but in the eyes of outsiders, Liu Tingzhou's benefit this time was greater than that of Lin Fu, and it was no wonder that Liu Yefei suspected that Liu Tingzhou and Lin Fu were singing opposite scenes.

Liu Yefei is used to intrigue and deceit. This type of person is best at guessing others with the lowest level of malice. Lin Fu looked at Liu Tingzhou in his eyes, just smiled and said nothing.

Xiao Kuian was guarding in Shuyang at this time, and he couldn't get away from it. Regarding the reorganization of the Northern Army, Lin Fu and Liu Tingzhou set a charter and asked Xiao Kuian to act accordingly.

Lin Fu hoped to recruit Liu Yong from the areas of Shuyang and Haizhou to be incorporated into the Northern Army, in order to alleviate the food shortage and public security pressure in Shuyang and Haizhou counties. Although the salary for being a soldier is not much these days, it is barely enough to keep the family wrapped up and not starving to death.

Lin Fu provided the Northern Army's 12th battalion with 6,000 main and 6,000 auxiliary soldiers, 2,000 in total, and 8,000 soldiers. Including their families, they could almost solve the survival problem of more than 30,000 refugees in Shuyang and Haizhou counties.

The Yishui River was blocked in time, but because the red jacket army moved eastward, the displaced people who poured into Shuyang and Haizhou counties, plus the displaced households that existed before, were about this order of magnitude.

Lin Fu also hoped that while Xiao Kuian was stationed in Shuyang, he would reclaim the barren land on the riverbanks of Yishui and Shushui. First, the family members of the generals would be resettled, and the income from the camp would make up for the lack of military resources and military support.

Although Liu Tingzhou and Lin Fu had great differences in political views, he was much more pragmatic and capable than officials of the same period, and he was not the kind of pedantic officials who opposed for the sake of opposition. Lin Fu really had no opinion on the disposal of the reorganization of the Northern Army.

"The reorganization of the Northern Army is complicated, and Xiao Xiaowei is alone in Shuyang. I'm afraid that he is not enough. Can I invite Master Liu and Master Tang to come to Shuyang to help him?" At the end of the discussion, Lin Fu asked Liu Tingzhou and Tang Shuen.

Liu Tingzhou knew that Lin Fu was going to kick him to Huaibei, but he had no objection.

Xiao Kui'an has a set of rules for the army, but the reorganization of the Northern Army involves all aspects, but it is not something that Xiao Kui'an can handle alone.

Of course, in addition to the 2,000 troops that Xiao Kuian led to guard Shuyang before, the newly added 6,000 troops and horses were provided by the commander of the army, but the troops and armor were in short supply. . It is easy to have a spear for each recruit, but armor and a bow and crossbow are an extravagant hope.

Lin Fu asked Liu Shidu again: "It's very difficult to do two things in Huai'an to check the public land and change the silver to collect grain. Shouldn't we start with Shuyang and Haizhou counties? Otherwise, the pressure of raising the army is too great!"

Liu Shidu glanced at Liu Tingzhou, pondered for a while, and said, "Yes, I will accompany Mr. Liu to the north! But can we ensure that the robbers do not cross Yishui and attack east?"

"The Huaidong Cavalry Camp has left Siyang, and a vigilance is formed on the east bank of Yishui. If any bandits are found on the east bank of Yishui, they will be resolutely attacked," Lin Fu said, "I plan to send a message to Jiangning, suggesting that the western route should also be changed. In order to blockade the main, for today's plan, the Changhuai army should be transferred to the south to prepare for the war, and the bandits may be appeased..."

When Lin Fu mentioned the word "approach", Liu Tingzhou and Liu Shidu didn't say anything. In their hearts, the two of them actually had some scruples about Chen Zhihu's prohibition*, but it was inconvenient to show it.

Liu Tingzhou is not stupid, and he is inclined to appease, but he can't make suggestions, otherwise he will have no position on Lin Bieyangkou's self-respecting accusation.

The current situation~www.readwn.com~ The Red Jacket Army has captured the two cities of Suining and Suyu, and has a chance to breathe. At this time, Chen Zhihu will not storm Huaiyang City, where the Red Jacket Army's elite soldiers are stationed. In the eyes of many people, even if the Red Jacket Army captured the two cities of Suining and Suyu, due to the limited supplies they could get from these two counties, the Red Jacket Army would get a maximum of ten or twenty days of breathing time. Even if Liu Tingzhou and others noticed that the military commander's office and the refugee army were secretly communicating with each other, they never imagined that the military commander's house would be able to provide 40,000 stone of rice grain to the refugee army every month.

Liu Tingzhou, Tang Shuen, and Liu Shidu left one after another.

Lin Fu, Cao Zi'ang, Liang Wenzhan and others also discussed the appropriate expansion of the Huaidong Army. Although the Huaidong Army temporarily focused on building warships and developing a navy army, this time it also freed up eight battalions for the infantry division, and it could not be used. The infantry battalion should also be moderately developed to prevent a serious imbalance in the combat power of the water infantry.

"I think the Changshan battalion should be expanded first," Cao Ziang thought for a long time, and finally suggested to expand the Changshan battalion first, "The cavalry battalion will temporarily stay on the north bank for a while, and after the situation stabilizes, the military pressure on the northern front will not be enough. Great. First, we will expand the Changshan Battalion. If there is a need for war, it can be quickly transported by the water camp and warships..."

Even after the construction of the Hanhaidi Post Road, it would take five to six days for a large-scale infantry movement to move from Chongzhou to Shanyang. Even after the collapse of the Yanbei line of defense, the court sent the imperial edict again, and Lin Fu had no plans to send troops, but that didn't mean he didn't make any preparations. In this sense, it is more meaningful to expand the Changshan Camp first.

On the northern line, the Huaidong Army's garrison was mainly concentrated in Siyang, Shukou, and Shanyang, and mainly in Siyang, forming the Huai Defense Line. Lin Fu implemented a strategy of elite soldiers. As long as the city was strong enough, he only needed three or four thousand elite combat power, which was enough to withstand several times or ten times the number of enemy troops attacking Siyang City in a short time.
