Outside the mountains, Haiyang City in Meizhou, Donggang Province, is subordinate to the official office of the salt judge. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's a hard time."

Xin Jiaxuan, who was already the official envoy of the Huaibei Capital League, also sighed on his wife's knee pillow, only feeling that the sigh in this life was not as much as at this time;

Although the official army of the counterinsurgency has already moved southward, and from the two lines of Jiangxi Road and Jinghu, they have successively broken through the Wuling Fortress and Tianwei; And the rebels who set out from Guangfu fought in the vicinity of Lian, He, and Shao, and had no time to take care of the affairs on his side.

Although more than a dozen officials, including the local history of assassination and the main book, have abandoned their posts and fled or hid; And there is only one young state Sima who was born in martial arts but has no experience in battle, and then he is strong enough to hold on to the situation; So much so that he has the highest rank here, and he temporarily assumes the responsibility of presiding over the overall situation.

But when he thought of the other family members who were still in the Dragon Bird Garden in Guangfu, as well as his father-in-law Lu Shilang, who had already disturbed some kind of right and wrong, he only felt all kinds of depression and haggardness.

And with the flood of refugees entering the country, the new group of people who fled from Guangfu increased his troubles, but they relied on their former identities and began to make a tone of wanting this and that, but they were not satisfied with anything.

The so-called toad jumping on the surface of the foot is purely disgusting.

And outside the Chaoyang Port, the rebel sailors wandering near Nanao Island are also a piece of his heart, if it weren't for the artillery team he temporarily commanded in the port to deter there, I am afraid that he would have rushed in and burned it a lot.

After all, according to the ships that escaped from the Shiqiao Salt Works, Nan'an Xi Fields, Tamsui Salt Fields, and Haifeng Ports further south, the coastal ports had been looted and burned by the rebels under the pretext of money and rewards, and few were spared.

In addition, most of the seven or eight thousand soldiers and horses under his command were recruited and sent on the spot, and they may have some enthusiasm for protecting the territory and the people; But if you want to instruct them to go out of the state to fight, it will be a little difficult, but I am afraid that most of them will be scattered before they reach the halfway point.

As for the remaining small half-centaurs, they were the elite of the Huai Army, which was both well-equipped and well-equipped and easy to use, with about three battalions and two regiments; However, it was the task force that Luo Shuai had privately sent to pick up and rescue his family, and under the same position and class in Huaizhen, he could certainly act in unison with him in most cases.

But on some critical matters, they cannot be expected to follow orders with all their might.

Lin Lin's various big and small things fell on him, and he couldn't help but feel a little troubled and confused.

"Lang Jun,"

Lu Ni beside him spoke up.

"Are you still worried about the family in Guangfu?"

"I think when Ah Weng sent us out, he already thought that there would be such a step..."

"I..."

Hearing these words of relief, Xin Jiaxuan couldn't help but stop talking, but he didn't know how to say it

"My brother has gone his own way, and my father has his own choices."

And Lu Ni is still taking care of himself.

"In addition to praying for many blessings, even if I struggle and bother with their choices, what can I change and influence?"

"What's more, I am of course the daughter of the Lu family, but now I am the wife of the Xin family. It has the responsibility of revitalizing the family business and continuing the incense,"

"Besides, the Jia Xuan I know is not such an indecisive child."

"Even if he encounters a difficult situation, he will find a way to cope and work hard."

"Only then will I come to this point with me."

"If you suffer a little setbacks and embarrassments, you will be depressed?"

"Or rather, isn't it because of the current predicament..."

Speaking of this, Lu Ni paused, reorganized his words, and said again.

"Did Lang Jun take on too many irrelevant responsibilities and things for himself for no reason."

"Or what does Lang Jun want to use these resources to continue to do in the current situation."

"Or maybe I listened to the instigation and instigation of some people, and thought about the war that would be difficult to quell the rebellion in this country."

"What kind of use will be played, what kind of work will be established, and what will be done for the Lu clan in the future."

Speaking of this, the questions and sorrows in Xin Jiaxuan's heart are still the same, but after changing the angle, his mind seems to have suddenly opened up. Why bother with the gains and losses of every corner of here, isn't your foundation and resources in Huaizhen?

But he was stumped by these interests and pursuits in front of him, and he actually wanted to pull those things and didn't want to get involved in these rights and wrongs with the children of Huai Town, and he almost broke the foundation of his life.

Even if he can raise troops in this corner of Meizhou, and actively respond to the imperial court's counterattack on Jinei; Compared with the Northern Expeditionary armies outside the ridge, this little army under his command is just the icing on the cake, and he is not much and he is not less; Does he still want to use this merit to hear and reach the king?

But he didn't know that what he had always wanted to avoid was that he was left in the court and worked with those mediocre and boring people, gradually losing his spirit and ambition, and becoming as light and dust as those he had disappointed.

What he is doing now and what he is doing is that he wants to throw himself into this great net of power again.

On the other hand, if these Huaijun athletes with special missions and their tasks are inferior because of their selfishness and persistence, it will never be easy for them to meet and coexist in their own nature in the future.

Even if it is a clan that has the heart to protect and redeem the Lu clan in the future, wouldn't it be more appropriate than borrowing the resources and status of Huaizhen to establish more merit and achievements in the Northland.

Thinking of this, he looked at Lu Ni with some emotion, gave him resolute support and encouragement at this difficult time, and woke up the person in his dream with a word, but it was his wife.

You may need some kind of determination and courage, instead of doing nothing here and wasting your precious time and opportunities.

For example, on the pretext of purging traitorous party spies, these people began to be purged. select available forces and unreliable groups from them, and then treat and dispose of them differently; Those suspicious and restless should also be resolutely suppressed and dealt with.

In addition, the resources and manpower of large local households were expropriated and confiscated, and more manpower was recruited on the spot as public funds to repair and consolidate the city defense with Hai Duong City as the core.

And those rebel sailors who are wandering outside are undoubtedly the best excuse and reason.

Anyway, the existence of those prominent officials and wealthy families who fled from the country, their reputation and preferences have no meaning to themselves, so why should they care about and taboo it.

After all, he is not a parent official in the true sense of Meizhou or even the entire Dongjiang Province, and he has an unshirkable responsibility for defending the territory and reassuring the people in the areas under his rule; And the millions of soldiers and civilians in Huaibei Province and the places under his rule are the places and responsibilities that he needs to be responsible for and attentive.

Therefore, the most he can do is to resign himself to his fate, and take away as many people as possible who are willing to go north with him to avoid trouble, etc., and as for those who are not in love or miss them, he can only ask for more blessings for himself, and there is no need to worry about them.

He also has no position or obligation to bear the consequences and endorse the duties and pursuits of others, including the student who tried to keep him and make a difference in the local area. Although the other party's motives and stance were not malicious, they seriously deviated from the path and direction he pursued.

Therefore, the goal of this period of stay has become very simple and clear; While doing his best to keep this foothold, he made every effort to collect and find some news and clues related to the Luo family.

With the new decision to prohibit the order, a series of chickens and dogs jumping in Meizhou, and hundreds of heads falling to the ground brought about by the rapid improvement of the execution efficiency, after three days of chaos and chaos,

It's like some kind of expectation that everything will come true, and finally I get the relevant news and clues. (To be continued.) )
