Lu Qianyun was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "In fact, there is another product on the island, that is, the endless pasture, can you let go of the pasture and let the people raise livestock and horses, on the one hand, to supply the army, on the other hand, you can also take Silla to sell, I don't know what Your Highness thinks?" ”

Huangfu Wujin thought about it, then nodded and agreed, "I can let go of the pasture, but horses can't be sold to Silla, only cattle and sheep, this island will be used as a military island in the future, and there will be 10,000 troops stationed for a long time, and the dock will continue to expand, you don't have to worry about finding something to do, just serving the army and dock affairs alone is enough to feed the residents of the whole county." ”

After a pause, he said earnestly: "Lu County Order, as a county parent official, you can't only consider the food and clothing of the people, but also open schools, support orphans and the elderly, and strictly enforce law and discipline, these are all very important things, and there will continue to be military households on the island in the future, you do these things well, I promised you, do things well, I will promote you." ”

Lu Qianyun nodded silently, he understood what His Royal Highness King Liang meant, he had to work here for at least five years.

．．．．．．．．． Although Jin'an Island occupies a vast area, it has a disadvantage, that is, the mainland is too far away, the news is blocked, and the news is generally transmitted by ships, and many times when the news is received, it is already a few months or even half a year later.

In order to solve this problem, the Chuzhou army found three small desert islands between Jin'an Island and the mainland, and established an intelligence transfer station here, specially training the eagles that inhabit the islands to transmit information.

The 50,000 sailors had been resting and training on Jin'an Island for ten days, and that afternoon, more than a dozen soldiers who were practicing diving in the sea because they were on vacation suddenly saw a white-bellied eagle flying sideways from the sea with its wings outstretched, and there was a bright red mark on the white belly.

The soldiers shouted, "Look! The letter eagle is coming. ”

The eagle flew over their heads, and one of the soldiers' sharp eyes saw the red letter strapped to the eagle's leg, a sign of urgency.

"Did you see that? The letterbox on the eagle's leg is red. ”

Everyone looked at each other, and they all realized that there should have been a major incident in the Daning Dynasty.

The military command center on Jin'an Island is the former palace of Li Baisha, and all kinds of luxurious furnishings have been removed, and more than 100 staff officers and intelligence officers work in this palace, and they are very busy every day.

Huangfu Wujin is also in this palace at this time, he is on the ship half of the time, the other half of the time is here, these days he has been waiting for news from Yuzhou, he has established a perfect intelligence network in Yuzhou and Qizhou, once an incident occurs in Luojing, the information will be transmitted to Jin'an Island at the fastest speed, at most six days, he can get the information about what happened in Luojing, it is now August 20, if there is a battle in Yuzhou, it should be delivered in these two days.

However, Huangfu Wujin did not just sit back and wait for Luo Jing's intelligence, for the past ten days, he has been paying attention to the intelligence of various parts of Qizhou, he has an intelligence network composed of 35 people in Qizhou, distributed in eight important counties of Qizhou, and the intelligence and movements of all parts of Qizhou are sent to Jin'an Island through the Flying Eagle Intelligence Station located in Laoshan.

A large amount of information from Qizhou every day has been sorted out, and all kinds of clues are summarized, so that the Qizhou army can have a clear movement, and the news he got in front of him is that there are already 300,000 Qizhou troops marching westward, led by Qi Wang Huangfu Chen, in addition, the general Luo Wei led 150,000 troops south to Lu County, which indicates that the Qizhou army is going to attack Pengcheng County and Xiapi County.

This shows that they have successfully deceived the Qizhou army, perhaps they did not get the information that the Chuzhou army went north from the sea, so they believed that if Chuzhou attacked Qizhou, it would be to cross the Huai River to the north, and it was also the reason why the general Luo Wei led the 150,000 troops south to Lu County, on the one hand, to occupy Pengcheng County and Xiapi County, and on the other hand, to intercept the 100,000 Chuzhou deployed on the Jianghuai line to the north.

"Your Highness!"

A lieutenant shouted and ran quickly, holding a red letterbox in his hand, "This is the Qizhou intelligence that has just been sent." ”

Everyone around them stopped what they were doing, and they all knew that the red letter box meant that something big had happened.

Huangfu Wujin took a deep breath, opened the letterbox, and took out a roll of silk paper from it, he quickly read it, muttered for a while, and immediately said to the herald beside him: "Go and pass my order, and the 80,000 army will be assembled immediately and prepare to board the ship!" ”

The news he had been waiting for finally came.

．．．．．．．． On the night of 14 August, Shen Jiqin, the generalissimo of Yongjing Tianxia soldiers and horses, led 200,000 Guanzhong troops out of Tongguan and entered Hongnong County, and the next day at noon, the army occupied Hongnong County, and at the same time, Shao Jingwen, the general of Jinzhou, led 100,000 troops from Shaanxi County to cross the Yellow River to the south, and the 300,000 Xining troops divided into two roads and pounced on Luojing.

On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival that night, Luo Qiyu, the general of Qizhou, led 30,000 vanguard troops to defeat the 5,000 Yuzhou army stationed in Puyang, and occupied Puyang County, Dongjun County.

At this point, the Central Plains War between Yongzhou and Qi Prefecture and Yuzhou officially kicked off.

．．．．．． Yuzhou suffered from the grim situation of two sides, so that the Luojing court and the palace were in chaos, hundreds of ministers under the leadership of the right minister Zhang Jinjie, in front of the Ziwei Palace in the Baifengmen Square kneeling, they were not panicked because of the attack of the strong enemy, but because the emperor Huang Fuheng was ready to appoint Yang Sheng as the generalissimo of soldiers and horses.

This made the courtiers led by Zhang Jinjie resentful, and instead of punishing Yang Sheng for his major crimes in the battle for Jinju, the emperor reappointed him as the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, which the ministers could not accept in any way.

In his early years, Yang Sheng successively served as the Xijing Guard, Lingshuo Jiedu Envoy and Jinzhou Soldiers and Horses Commander, etc., and was also regarded as a high-ranking military official, and later served as the secretary of the Ministry of War for a long time, in charge of all [***] affairs, but these are not the main reasons, the real reason, Yang Sheng is Huang Fuheng's maternal grandfather, is Huang Fu Heng's absolutely trustworthy person, in this critical situation, Huang Fu Heng wants to let his trusted person lead the army, Yang Sheng is the best candidate.

Zhang Jinjie knelt under the marble steps, the emperor's decision made him extremely worried, he had been kneeling for almost half an hour, his knee pain was unbearable, but he couldn't get up, if the emperor did not take back the emperor's order, he must appoint Yang Sheng as the generalissimo, then the Luojing Dynasty would be ruined in the hands of that mediocre old horseman.

"Your Majesty, you can't be so mediocre!" Zhang Jinjie was filled with grief and indignation, and couldn't help shouting.

The hundred ministers behind him also shouted: "Your Majesty, take back the emperor's order!" ”

At this time, a eunuch ran out of the inner palace and saluted Zhang Jinjie and said, "Xiangguo, Your Majesty invites you to go." ”

Zhang Jinjie struggled to stand up, but he couldn't stand up, and the two officials behind him hurriedly helped him up.

"Colleagues, I must persuade the emperor to replace that mediocre old horseman!"

The ministers applauded together to express their support, and in the applause and expectations of everyone, Zhang Jinjie followed the eunuch into the inner palace with a trace of sadness.

In the imperial study, Huangfu Heng was furious, he had just received news that Huangfu Wujin was launching a war against Guangzhou, and Huangfu Wujin himself had personally taken a boat south.

Huangfu Heng ordered people to rummage through the cabinets, and finally found the fold sent by the assassin of Linchuan County from the pile of folds for more than a month, which said that the Chu army was concentrated in Poyang County and might have to use troops against Guangzhou, but he didn't see this twist.

This late news made Huangfu Heng furious, 'Bang! With a loud bang, the inkstone smashed against the wall, and suddenly shattered in half, and he quickly lifted off the table again, and shouted to several eunuchs beside him: "Who is it! Who is hiding this news, I don't even know! ”

Several eunuchs were so frightened that they trembled, in fact, the emperor knew the news, he acquiesced to Huangfu Wujin's possession of Guangzhou, or he was helpless, so he pretended not to know.

Huangfu Heng's anger was not that Chuzhou used troops against Guangzhou, he had already acquiesced to Huangfu Wujin's occupation of Chuzhou, as long as Huangfu Wujin was willing to send troops to help him deal with Qizhou.

But now Qizhou is attacking Yuzhou on a large scale, and Huangfu Wujin has gone south to Guangzhou, obviously can no longer help him, which makes Huangfu Heng have a feeling of being fooled, Huangfu Wujin must have known that Yuzhou is going to be attacked, so he deliberately went south, and he admitted that he was the heir of Emperor Jin'an, on the condition that they should deal with Qizhou together, but at the most critical moment, he ran away, which made Huangfu Heng not angry.

After yelling and yelling, Huang Fuheng had nothing to do, he sat down in his chair, panting and staring at the roof, his chest rose and fell violently, his mind returned to the situation in front of him, what should he do?

At this time, a eunuch walked into the imperial study and bowed down to report, "Your Majesty, Zhang Xiangguo is here." ”

Thinking of Zhang Jinjie, Huang Fuheng had a headache and was annoyed, at this time, if he did not work together to deal with foreign enemies, there was internal strife first, Huang Fuheng knew that Zhang Jinjie and Yang Sheng had been fighting secretly since the first emperor, and Zhang Jinjie opposed Yang Sheng as a marshal, not necessarily out of public intentions.

"Announce him in!"

The eunuch went out, and after a while, Zhang Jinjie hurriedly walked in, and as soon as he entered the imperial study, he knelt on the ground, and said sadly: "Your Majesty, if Yang Sheng is used as the marshal, Your Majesty's society will be destroyed in his hands!" ”

"Enough!"

Huang Fuheng's face suddenly became gloomy, and he said with great displeasure: "I didn't summon you in to talk to you about this, you get up first!" ”

Zhang Jinjie had no choice but to stand up, sighed and said, "What is the matter with Your Majesty's summoning of ministers?" ”

"I want to know, how much grain is left in Taicang and Zuozang?"

"Your Majesty, there are 800,000 stones of grain in Taicang, 400,000 stones in Sinong Temple and Changping, 1.2 million stones in grain, 3 million in silver, and nearly 5 million stones in the Xingyang granary, which was transported from Jingzhou just now."

Huangfu Heng pondered for a long time, and said to himself: "It seems that Xingyang must not be lost!" ”
