Lord of the House: Chapter 11 resistance army

Between Zhejiang and Fujian, there are hills and mountains, She Feihu and Qin Zitan are in Xiapu County. It was not until October 18 that they learned the news of the southward attack on the Huaidong Army and the Yandang Bandits to capture Yongjia and Yueqing counties.

The she family relies entirely on the support of the eight surnames to create the current situation of the Governor's Office in Zhejiang and Fujian. Therefore, the she family in East Fujian will make every effort to protect the interests of the gentry and the aristocratic clan. Southern Zhejiang is a newly occupied land, and it will inevitably require severe and brutal suppression of local forces in southern Zhejiang. On the one hand, luxury families can extract more manpower and material resources from southern Zhejiang to support their war in western Zhejiang. Strengthen the penetration and control of the Bamin clan in southern Zhejiang, and ensure that everyone can obtain sufficient war benefits from it.

Those officials, gentlemen and local forces who were either loyal to the Dayue Yuan clan, or whose interests were violated, a considerable number of people did not surrender to the She clan after the fall of the whole of southern Zhejiang, but retreated to Yandang Mountain, Kuocang Mountain, Tiantai Mountain, etc. Between the majestic mountains in southern Zhejiang, we resisted and waited for Master Wang to restore his homeland.

The terrain of southern Zhejiang is complex, the prefectures and counties are isolated, the land road is dangerous, and there are many dangerous walled cities between the mountains that are easy to defend and difficult to attack. The luxury family's control over southern Zhejiang was short, and the military resources were concentrated in the western and eastern Zhejiang.

In the eyes of the She family, the so-called Yandang Bandit was a resistance army led by Ye Su, the former commander of Qingtian County, and Liu Wenzhong, the leader of the Yongjia clan. Ye Su and Liu Wenzhong were the first to resist the Zhejiang and Fujian rebels in Qingtian County for half a year. After Yongjia fell, they faced the danger of being attacked, so they retreated into Yandang Mountain and joined with other remaining resistance forces to become the resistance of Zhejiang and Fujian in Yongjia Prefecture. The main force of the Fujian rebels, with more than 3,000 troops.

When the luxury family occupied southern Zhejiang, they encountered strong resistance under Yongjia City, and Yongjia City was dilapidated afterwards. The She family moved the Fuzhi to Ouhai County on the south bank of the Yongjia River. Yongjia City has not been restored, which is also the main reason for the easy success of the Huaidong Army's attack.

After Huaidong attacked Yongjia City, Ye Su and Liu Wenzhong led their subordinates to Yandang Mountain and joined forces to capture Yueqing...

The main force of the She family in Yongjia Mansion was concentrated in Ouhai City on the south bank of the Yongjia River. There were only 2,000 elites, and they could only be sent to Yongjia, Yueqing and other places to be recovered by the Huaidong Army.

In Yongjia, Yueqing and other places, including officials sent by the Shejia, officials and gentry who surrendered, nearly a hundred people were executed by Xiaoshou, and nearly a thousand people were punished and moved to Hecheng.

Under such a severe situation, Shewenzhuang had to add the Governor's Office in southern Zhejiang to be responsible for the defense of the coast of southern Zhejiang.

She Feihu was able to serve as the governor of southern Zhejiang. On the morning of the 19th, he and Qin Zitan, under the **** of dozens of entourages, resolutely took the risk of taking two fishing boats to cross the sea to the north.

The land road between Zhejiang and Fujian is even more dangerous. Yongjia Prefecture needs to recover the reinforcements of Yueqing and Yongjia cities, which can only be transferred from western Zhejiang. At present, although it is still necessary to ensure that the focus is on the west line, it is also necessary to transfer some elites from the west line to stabilize the defense lines of southern Zhejiang and eastern Fujian.

She Feihu and Qin Zitan were sitting in the cabin. Outside the cabin, there were only three entourages disguised as fishermen driving the boat.

At most 3,000 elites will be transferred from the western front. After She Feihu successfully arrives at Ouhai, only 5,000 elites can be used. It is difficult to imagine how difficult it is to recover Yongjia, Yueqing and other counties with 5,000 elites, and to guard against the harassment of the Huaidong navy on the coast of southern Zhejiang... But even if the coast is abandoned and the Yongjia River is completely blocked, the hinterland of southern Zhejiang must be It is necessary to keep it, this is the consensus reached by the Governor's Office of Zhejiang and Fujian.

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

In the late autumn, the East China Sea is as blue as blue. Accompanied by Fu Qinghe and Zhou Tong and others, Lin Bie climbed to the observation deck at the southern foot of Jinji Mountain and looked at the distant sea. In the clear blue sea, the daisy islands and reefs were scattered like treasures.

"There is a letter from the south," Fu Qinghe said with a broken left arm at the elbow and a saber around his waist in his right hand, saying, "Ye Su and Liu Wenzhong are unwilling to accept the letter reported by the Nan raid fleet's latest ship. Our suggestion is to retreat to Yuhuan Island and Jishan Islands. They want to stick to Yongjia and Yueqing, and fight against the luxury family. It seems that the northern Zhejiang side has more influence on them..."

Yuhuan Island is a large island located in the eastern waters of Yongjia Prefecture, and the situation is critical. The two islands face each other in the north and south, forming horns with each other. The beaches and shores are full of rocks, and the reefs and reefs are staggered. The high tide disappears and the low tide emerges, which poses a great threat to ships near the island. As long as Ye Su and Liu Wenzhong led 3,000 troops to retreat to these two islands, it would be very difficult to conquer these two islands, except for the expatriate family to mobilize the main force of the Zhedong navy.

Lin Fu's original intention was to persuade Ye Su and Liu Wenzhong to lead the main force of the resistance army in southern Zhejiang to retreat to these two islands, so as to cut off the sea connection between eastern Fujian and eastern Zhejiang once and for all.

Although the resistance troops and local armed forces who retreated to Yandang Mountain, Kuocang Mountain, Tiantai Mountain and other places were mostly sent by Huaidong to contact them first, they were first appointed as ambassadors of the two Zhejiang provinces, and later as the right servant of the Jiangning Ministry of War. Dong Yuan had more influence on them.

Emperor Jing and Ning Wangfu saw that after the fall of southern Zhejiang, there were still so many people loyal to the imperial court. In addition to awarding officials and honoring titles, these resistance forces were placed under the leadership of Si Yao, the envoy of the northern Zhejiang system, ignoring the only way to go by sea. Material support can be provided to these resistance forces.

"Then let them go," Lin Fu sighed and said, "Send someone to tell Dong Yuan how much supplies Liu Wenzhong and Ye Su want to get from us, and the envoys in northern Zhejiang have to double the amount. Compensate us - otherwise we will hit us, and the Southern Zhejiang Army will hit them!"

Lin Bie said so in anger.

Ye Su and Liu Wenzhong led their troops to stick to the two cities of Yueqing and Yongjia without retreating. In addition to being deeply influenced by Dong Yuan, they did not rule out that they, as representatives of local forces, were more eager to recover southern Zhejiang from the extravagant family.

Yueqing is near the sea. As long as Ye Su and Liu Wenzhong can hold Yueqing City, in addition to containing more extravagant troops and horses, the Huaidong Fleet also has a base in southern Zhejiang, which will allow them to advance and retreat more freely.

Fu Qinghe frowned for a while, and said, "Although Ye Su and Liu Wenzhong refused to accept the Huaidong Military Division's suggestion, it does not mean that no one in the resistance forces in southern Zhejiang can recognize the dangerous situation. Yuhuan Island is connected to the land. If it is too close, if Yueqing loses, Yuhuan Island will be more difficult to defend, maybe someone in southern Zhejiang will agree to defend the Jishan Islands!"

Just to defend the Jishan Islands, Huaidong sent three to five hundred soldiers.

The reason why they tried so hard to persuade the resistance army in southern Zhejiang to retreat to the island is that it is relatively easy for the She family to gather troops on the land of southern Zhejiang. Even Yueqing City, which is by the sea, is actually more than 20 miles away from the coast. Not to mention Yongjia City, Ye and Liu's subordinates are also very difficult to defend Yueqing City. Once Yueqing falls, the resistance forces in southern Zhejiang will suffer a devastating blow, which is not conducive to the development of the situation in southern Zhejiang.

On the other hand, Lin Fu must now consider the issue of competing with Dong Yuan for control of southern Zhejiang and other places after driving the luxury family away. Obviously, as long as Huaidong has enough influence over the resistance forces in southern Zhejiang, it will undoubtedly have the upper hand when it comes to vying for control over southern Zhejiang and other places in the future.

Hearing what Fu Qinghe said, Lin Fu could only nod in agreement.

Ye Su, Liu Wenzhong and others are all representatives of the gentry and aristocratic families in southern Zhejiang. However, it was clearly with the assistance of the Huaidong Army that they recovered Yongjia and Yueqing, and they had to be close to northern Zhejiang and alienated from Huaidong.

Perhaps it was because it was too easy to recover Yongjia and Yueqing.

Let the forces in southern Zhejiang who dislike Huaidong stay in Yueqing and consume it!

Lin Fu sighed slightly. He couldn't see what the luxurious Zhedong navy was doing on the front line of the Daishan Islands, so he descended Jinji Mountain and returned to the Qingxi Bay camp at the northwest foot of Jinji Mountain.

As soon as he got off Jinji Mountain, Chen Enze handed over an urgent letter from Chongzhou.

"Luo Xiancheng led his troops south and captured Qichun five days ago!" Lin Fu weakly handed the message to Fu Qinghe, and he really didn't know what to say about it.

Although Huaidong had predicted as early as July that the Changle rebels might advance southward, he had also notified the Governor's Palace, Prince Ning's Palace and the Jiangning Military Department several times.

Jiangning turned a deaf ear to Huaidong's warnings; Jinghu, not only was not alert to the southward movement of the Changle army, but even drew troops from Qichun and other places to strengthen the defenses of Jiangxia and Jingzhou.

The news report that Luo Xiancheng led the Changle army southward and Qichun fell into Chongzhou turned out to be delivered to Chongzhou on the same day—Lin Fu stuffed the news report into Fu Qinghe's hands, and said with resentment and indifference: "Yuanshi can Restoring the rule of ZTE is a hell!"

Fu Qinghe read the letter and asked, "Jiang Ning wants to transfer a water camp from Huaidong to the west to prepare the Changle army to cross the river. What are you going to do?"

"It's not yet the time for us to go west," Lin Fu said. "Let's just say that our east front is tight, and we can't draw a single soldier. Whoever makes a mess should be cleaned up..."

Fu Qinghe returned the letter to Chen Enze~www.mtlnovel.com~ and said to Lin Fu, "Master Gu may hope that the Huaidong Army will advance westward, how should we deal with it?"

"Even if I want to take care of Xibian, I really have more than my heart but not enough strength. Right now, I can only take care of myself first," Lin Fu said, "Luo Xiancheng captured Qichun and crossed the river to Jiangxi with him, there is not much difference. It's enough to make Jiangning mess up. Even if I go back to Chongzhou, I have to wait for the Nan raiding fleet to return safely. I have to fight Daishan and Changguo appropriately, and the Haiyu army can't help it!"

The Huaidong Navy has attacked the coast of eastern Fujian thousands of miles away. Whether the She family will send the Zhedong Navy to fight is a matter between the two.

Lin Fu must be in the waters east of Chongzhou and be ready for battle at any time.

In addition to the southern raiding fleet that is ready to return to aid at any time, the main force of the Jinghai Second and Third Water Battalions are concentrated on the front lines of Hecheng, Jiangmen and Chongcheng. Moreover, in addition to ensuring the needs of basic construction, Huaidong currently concentrates more resources on the development of water camps.

Nearly two-thirds of the shipbuilding capacity of Guanyintan Shipyard is used to build warships, and other newly-built ships are also given priority to ensure the transportation capacity of core resources such as coal and iron.

Since the world did not have the ability to forge large-area steel plates, Lin Bing could only luxuriously use copper to cover the deck of the newly built warship.

Fusang produces copper and silver, and Huaidong has the ability to extract silver, but it requires manpower and time.

Wang Chengfu suggested that the Huaidong Military Division directly raise high-value copper coins with miscellaneous silver and copper. Zhou Guangnan and others were eager to take the matter of raising copper coins under the name of Huaidong Bank. Lin Mengde also felt that this was to relieve Huaidong. One method of financial pressure - Nai He Lin Bie transported more than 200,000 catties of copper back from Haidong at one time and allocated it to the Guanyintan Shipyard, which was used to coat the new warships.
