Lord of the House

"General Wu, you just came back from the west. How is the situation in the west?"

Lin Xuwen pointed to the seat beside him and asked Wu Qi to sit down and talk.

Wu Qi was in the general system of the Huaidong Military Intelligence Department - this position was not officially recognized by the court, but in any case, Wu Qi was Huaidong's representative in Jinhai, and Lin Xuwen would never despise him.

When Huang Jinnian didn't ask for help, he saw Wu Qi as black and thin and shriveled like an old farmer in the field, without the spirit of a military commander, and looked down on him very much. At this time, when he went to Huaidong, his face changed as if he was conjuring a trick, but he was waiting for Wu Qi. After being seated, he sat down with a smile.

Wu Qi sat down with his hands on the table, and said to Lin Xuwen: "I'm afraid the situation in the west is not optimistic. I suggest that Mr. Lin withdraw the guards of Suning and Hejian cities and fully defend the villages outside Jinhai. Village!"

Lin Xuwen's face was bitter. He, Wu Qi and Yang Yihang would reply two or three times a day. He understood the severe situation in the periphery of Suning. He asked Wu Qi whether it was for Huang Jinnian to see. Hearing what Wu Qi said, Lin Xuwen looked at Huang Jinnian and asked, "Master Huang, what do you think?"

Lin Xuwen holds the military and political power of the Hejian Mansion, and he can decide whether the Jin Navy will retreat or not. However, Huang Jinnian was the highest official of the court in Jinhai, and unless Lin Xuwen made up his mind to be a warlord, he would not easily act arbitrarily. Obviously, Lin Xuwen has not yet made up his mind to be independent, nor does he have this foundation.

Huang Jinnian hesitated and voluntarily gave up other cities except Jinhai and Cangzhou. This is not the decisiveness that ordinary people can have.

Although the imperial court had asked him to consider the worst consequences, in his opinion, as long as Hao Zongcheng captured Liaoyang City first, the situation would naturally turn the corner—the crime of abandoning the city was not something Huang Jinnian could afford.

"The navy of Jin eats the salaries and salaries of the imperial court, and should think about serving the imperial court. Besides, by defending Hejian City, it can also share the pressure for Jinhai, so why would they abandon the city without fighting?" Said, "I think it's better to wait for a while and see the situation before making a decision!"

"Captain Ma, what do you think?" Lin Xuwen asked Ma Yigong again. The Tianjin navy generals were led by Ma Yigong, Yang Yihang, and Wu Tian. Now Yang Yihang is in Hejian and Wu Tian is in Cangzhou. Lin Xuwen asked Ma Yigong's opinion. Also normal.

Sun Shangwang sighed slightly in his heart: Lin Xuwen still lacked the decisiveness, let alone the courage to treat the imperial court as nothing. Huang Jinnian made such a statement, it would be difficult for him to decisively withdraw Yang Yihang's troops from Hejian and Suning, at most order the surrounding troops to be evacuated. Gathered to the Hejian City and held on.

Ma Yigong's opinion, how could Lin Xuwen not know? Everyone had fully exchanged opinions in advance. Lin Xuwen asked Ma Yigong again in front of Huang Jinnian at this time, but he did not make the decision to take everything down.

Ma Yigong pondered slightly, and said: "The Jin navy has only 6,000 soldiers, and it is enough to gather the main force to defend Jinhai. If the troops are divided to defend Hejian and Cangzhou, if the main attack direction of the cavalry is not Hejian, it can barely defend it; if the cavalry is large If the Ministry comes here, it will be difficult to defend the three cities at the same time, and Jinhai may not be able to defend..."

In the past two or three years, the main resources of Hejian Mansion have been concentrated in Jinhai.

In addition to the main city of Jinhai, which was rebuilt with Wukou Village, a number of strong villages were built on the south bank of the Wushui River, in the west and north of Jinhai, making Jinhai a fortified village with a length of about 20 miles. fortress.

The main force of the Jinhai navy has all withdrawn to the Jinhai Sea. There are almost 6,000 elite Jinhai naval force. There is no problem in defending the Jinhai.

If they divided their troops to defend Cangzhou, but also defended Hejian, the Tianjin Navy, which was already limited in strength, would not be able to squeeze a powerful fist anywhere, and would completely fall into a situation of passive beating.

In comparison, Hejian County has not only ceased to be the seat of government administration, but also no longer has the status of the first county in the past two years. The city was dilapidated. In the past two years, only the outer wall has been restored, and it has penetrated into the hinterland and is closest to the coastline. There are also more than two hundred and twenty miles.

Once Zijing Pass is conquered by the captives, the main force of captives in the periphery of Datong will pour in. Once the captives flood into Hejianfu on a large scale, the connection between Jinhai and other Chicheng will be cut off, and Hejian will become an isolated city.

At that time, Jinhai will not be able to organize reinforcements, and Yang Yihang will only have two or three thousand elites in his hands. How long can he defend Hejian? If Hejian Mansion falls, Yang Yihang's department is wiped out, the strength of the Jin Navy will be greatly damaged, and it will be difficult to defend Jinhai.

Lin Xuwen looked at Huang Jinnian—Huang Jinnian hesitated, but now there is definite news to confirm that more than 20,000 elite captives have leaked in from Jingxing.

Lin Xuwen, Wu Qi, Ma Yigong, they can also confirm that the main attack direction of the Donghu people in the early stage will not be Hejianfu, and the big losses suffered by the Yangxin city will not be easily forgotten by the Donghu people. In the early stage, their troops entering Yannan were limited, and they were still mainly cavalry. It is possible to send troops to block and cut off the contact between Jinhai and the periphery; to gather troops to attack Jinhai, unless Ye Jiduodi takes the wrong medicine or burns his brain.

Huang Jinnian could not confirm this.

What can be confirmed now is that there is almost no resistance in the western Hebei region.

The importance of Jinhai is unquestionable. If Jinhai falls, Gyeonggi's throat will be cut off. If the Donghu people have been entrenched in Jinhai for more than half a year, Gyeonggi will not have to fight, and will collapse directly.

Huang Jinnian's face was full of entanglement. He was a civil servant, and it was really embarrassing for him to make up his mind on military and strategic matters.

Huang Jinnian looked at Zhang Wendeng and other officials for help. Zhang Wendeng and others were also in the dark about the military. Naturally, they were more concerned about their own safety. From this perspective, they naturally defended Jinhai with all their strength.

Zhang Wendeng hesitated for a while, then said, "Jinhai is absolutely not to be missed by the imperial court. Maybe we should send someone to ask the imperial court for instructions, and it won't take a few days!"

The level of penetration of the captives is not deep, and the line of trust with Gyeonggi has not been broken at this time. Zhang Wendeng is not a decisive official, Huang Jinnian is also, he heard Zhang Wendeng say this, nodded, and said, "This matter is still waiting for the court to decide...Lin, please send someone to tell General Yang that he must spend more time in Hejian. Wait a few days!"

At this time, Wuwei, who was on duty outside the door, came in to report that Jinwei Island had sent someone over to find Sun Shangwang in an emergency. Sun Shangwang apologized and went out.

Huang Jinnian and Zhang Wendeng looked at each other, how could Jinweidao have something important to interrupt the military discussion here, and Lin Xuwen was also puzzled. After a while, Sun Shangwang walked back and said a few words in Wu Qi's ear.

Seeing that Wu Qi's face changed greatly, Huang Jinnian, Zhang Wendeng and others were even more puzzled, for fear of bad news from Jinwei Island.

"My family has just arrived at Tsuwei Island, and I would like to invite Lord Lin and General Ma over to discuss matters!"

Wu Qi's words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake.

Lin Xuwen and Ma Yigong were naturally overjoyed, Huang Jinnian and Zhang Wendeng's expressions changed suddenly, and they didn't know how to evaluate this matter - Lin Fu came to Jinhai!

This is simply more shocking than the news that the captives have re-entered Yannan.

Lin Xuwen was also surprised and happy. He was somewhat unable to cope with the situation in front of him. It would be great if Lin Fu could come to Jinhai in person, and said, "It must be Lin Fu who saw the possibility that the captives might re-enter Yannan. , come to support in advance! Lord Huang, what do you think..."

"Oh!" Huang Jinnian suddenly came back to his senses. Lin Fu came to King Qin. Although he did not obey the edict, this was certain. Huang Jinnian didn't believe that Lin Fu could have any bad intentions at this time...

Although a little unruly, although a little impatient, the achievement of the King of Diligence is a choice that normal people would make.

However, Lin Fu was a military minister, and he entered Jinhai openly without an edict.

"Emissary Lin Zhizhi is in Jinwei Island!" Zhang Wendeng reminded in a low voice.

"Oh..." Huang Jinnian was so overwhelmed by the situation in front of him that he forgot the difference between Jinwei Island and Jinhai.

Strictly speaking, Jinwei Island is Yongye Field awarded to Lin Fu by the imperial court, and it is the private property of the Lin family. This is also the reason why Lin Bie invited Lin Xuwen and Ma Yigong to Jinwei Island to discuss matters after he arrived at Jinwei Island, instead of him coming to Jinwei Island.

The last time Lin Fu came to Jinhai secretly, he also stayed in Jinwei Island, and did not have half an inch of land in Jinhai.

Although there are many people in the court and the public who despise Lin Fu, they are more despised by Lin Fu's character, and few people will despise his ability. Among the many famous generals and officials in the empire, Lin Fu was not behind.

Lin Fu came to Jinhai at this time. As long as he didn't disagree, for Huang Jinnian, who was devastated by the current situation, he would undoubtedly see a big tree floating when he was drowning.

Yannan's situation is in critical condition, and Huang Jinnian doesn't care about his identity~www.readwn.com~ He said to Lin Xuwen: "Master Zhang and I will go with you to Jinwei Island to see the envoy Lin Zhizhi, I just hope that the envoy Lin Zhizhi will not find it too abrupt. Just fine."

"Please..." Lin Xuwen asked Huang Jinnian to go first.

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

Lin Bie was wearing a green robe and looked at the cold blue sea with his sleeves.

This year is really dangerous. The sea ice is on the edge of freezing, and it is only 30 to 40 miles away from Jinwei Island. If the weather is a little colder, Jinhai will be sealed by sea ice. Today, although some areas along the coast of Tianjin are sealed by sea ice, the ice layer is not thick, and the use of manpower to smash and earth-made icebreakers makes the waterway clear.

"Now you are rushing to be a loyal minister of the Dayue Dynasty, but you don't know whether the court welcomes you, or secretly scolds your mother?" Song Jia also learned Lin Fu to wear a green robe. She is shorter than Lin Fu and has a delicate face. Female goods, when she mentioned the word "loyal minister", she deliberately emphasized her accent.

Lin Fu smiled and sighed again. He saw Huang Jinnian and Lin Xuwen coming by boat from a distance and said, "Is the Yuan family still qualified to pick fat and thin at this time?"

"That's right!" Song Jia smiled slightly and said, "Even if the Yuan family is swollen, how can they still smile like a spring for a 'loyal subject' like you! But the situation on the northern front has not yet reached its final collapse. You have to stay in Jinhai for a few more days to get what you want! I think, Li Zhuo is the only person in this world who can see through your arrangements! If you decide to move south, how will you deal with it?"

"Impossible," Lin Fu shook his head and said, "I'd rather Li Zhuo come to be the leave-behind envoy, and I'll be the leader of the southward migration. This situation is actually not bad-a pity, it's impossible, and the time is too long. Too late!" My QT room is open! More vulgar official QT room number [9167] Click to enter
