Lushun, Yuan called "Lion's Mouth", Hongwu four years Zhu Yuanzhang sent Ma Yun to lead the troops from Shandong to cross the sea to guard Liaodong, because the sea journey was smooth sailing, thus the Lion's Mouth was renamed Lushunkou, in the early Ming Dynasty is one of the receiving points of Dengzhou maritime military quarters, and later in Jinzhou after the establishment of the guard, and then set up the Jinzhou Weizhong left thousand households in Lushun.

Lushun South City was built in Yongle ten years, built by Xu Gang, around one mile three hundred steps, the moat is one zhang two feet deep, two zhang five feet wide, this small city with a circumference of only more than one mile is located next to the military port of the later generations, only two hundred steps offshore, one mile away from the west side is Xiguan Mountain, that is, the white jade mountain of later generations, in the late Qing Dynasty by Li Hongzhang a sentence "there is gold, when there is white jade", and renamed Baiyu Mountain. Approximately one and a half miles to the north, is the site of Beicheng 1rì, which was destroyed by Mang Gurtai in the fifth year of Yaoqi, and then considered that Beicheng was far away from the sea, and was worried that it would not be able to hold it, so it was not rebuilt.

This place and Dengzhou a south and a north control choke the Bohai Sea, Lushun is surrounded by mountains, the tiger's tail extended by the old iron mountain forms a premature anti-wave ti, only a waterway at the mouth of Lushun leads to the port, the unique geographical conditions make the place become a famous military port in later generations, the Beiyang naval division at the end of the Qing Dynasty took this as the home port, built the sea fort in the Golden Mountain and other places, and established a solid defense line against the land on the mountains around the north side.

However, the Manchu Qing Dynasty had such a good defensive advantage, and still could not withstand the attack of the Rì army, and fell into the hands of the Rì Army in the First Sino-Japanese War.

However, at this time in the late Ming Dynasty, the artillery was not strong enough to control the plains near zhì from the top of the mountain, and the Xiguan Mountain, Golden Mountain and Tiger Tail next to the southern city were unfortified, and the mountains were lush and green.

The flat land around Nancheng and south of the Lushun River is cultivated land, and some tunhu shacks are scattered among them. Many curious people put down their farm work and looked in the direction of the dock.

The military port was full of large ships, and the ships on the pier were constantly coming and going, and a large number of soldiers in bright armor were spit out, and after these soldiers gathered at the dock, they entered the city through the Tongjin Gate in the south of Lushun City.

The flying tiger flag of the Wendeng camp fluttered on the tower of Tongjin Gate, and surrounded by the Chinese army guards, Chen Xin accompanied Wang Tingqian into the city.

There is only one avenue running from north to south in the city, which has been controlled by the 2nd thousandth headquarters that entered the city first. Wang Tingqian was quite bold this time, first sent troops to Lushun to pass the documents, Chen sometimes saw Wang Tingqian many times when he was in Phi Dao, and after confirming it in the city tower, he did indeed patrol Benjin, and saw a huge fleet, knowing that it must be a Dengzhou sailor, so he did not suspect him. Hurriedly led the big and small officers to greet them at the city gate, and as soon as they opened the door, they were all taken down by Dai Zhenggang on the spot, and they were already escorted to the dock and handed over to Lu Zhi. The dragons in Lushun City were leaderless, and the soldiers of the Wendeng battalion quickly took control of the main roads and divided the various settlements in the city.

Wang Tingqian strode down the street, where there were almost no brick houses on both sides, and there were no decent shops in the city. This is a simple fortress, a small amount of smuggled trade transit trade is controlled by the generals, and the inhabitants are Liao people who have fled from all over Liaodong, some of them first fled to Phi Dao and other islands, and then came here. Because the number of Dongjiang soldiers was far lower than the actual import, and there was not much grain that could be produced by farming, they could only maintain a minimum standard of survival, and some of them could not survive the severe cold every winter.

The group entered the deputy general's mansion, but it was built quite magnificently, with a wall and a gatehouse, and after entering, it was found that the inside was very wide. Wang Tingqian looked around and asked Chen Xin, who was following: "This is a military town, and General Chen will take over directly." ”

Chen Xin immediately replied: "The last general has already prepared, and he will do his best to straighten out the situation here." ”

Wang Tingqian was a little curious: "General Chen has never been to Lushun, how do you plan to start?" ”

"First of all, first stabilize the city defense, occupy all the key points in the city, and then find all the masters in the palace, find out the money and grain books in the palace of the deputy general, and hand them over to the important officials to check the number. Then select some of the officers who were not Chen's cronies from among the 100 or more officers in custody, and secondly, according to the entry book, they were cleared one by one for the purpose of auxiliary soldiers, and then these 1rì officers were used to lead the order, so as to settle the heart. Again, inspect the surrounding mountains and rivers to these officers in detail, and the officers should personally inspect the critical places......"

Wang Tingqian waved his hand in satisfaction and interrupted him, "General Chen is clearly organized, this official is relieved, but what does this official need to do?" ”

Chen Xin said respectfully: "Wang Dajin did not hesitate to take Chen Shi at the risk of taking the time, which caused a lot of damage to the soldiers of our department, and the lower officials were grateful. Originally, there was no shame and no more trouble, but there were two things about his subordinates. ”

"This officer has already said on the ship, you and I are in harmony, why bother, the general, please speak."

"Then the lower official is cheekily asking Da Jin for two things, one is to wait for Lu Da Jin to screen the officers and family members, and ask Da Jin to personally come forward to appease those soldiers who have nothing to do with Chen Shi, and settle down; The second is that this place has just survived the winter, and there must be a shortage of grain and grass, so please urge the grain and grass again, otherwise it is not conducive to holding on for a long time. ”

Wang Tingqian nodded, "The matter of settling down is the matter of the official's duty, the matter of grain and grass...... There is still some grain in the water city, and the sailor will continue to transport it after he returns, but the follow-up is a little troublesome, Li Jiucheng and Kong Youde will Denglai disaster is not light, we set off from Dengzhou before the official has urgently transferred Ninghai, Laiyang, Qixia, Laizhou's treasury grain, and sent a note to the imperial court, please transport a batch of grain and grass from Yaojin. General Chen, please rest assured that the official will make every effort to raise the grain and grass matter, and will never hold the general back. ”

Chen Xin knelt down and said loudly: "There is a big entry into this sentence, and the last general will definitely make Lushun as solid as a rock." Lushun is here, then I have a piece of soil in Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty, and the next official on behalf of the millions of Liao people who were killed in Liaodong thanked Dajin. ”……

Seven or eight tables were set up in the lobby of the Lushun Adjutant General's Mansion, and more than a dozen quartermasters and staff officers of the Chinese army checked the books together.

Chen Xinlai walked around, and found that Chen sometimes had such a big deputy general's mansion, and there was not a single map, but there were more than ten literate people in the mansion, and he asked roughly, it turned out that they were all students who escaped from Liaodong, and they all came to Chen sometimes as copywriters to eat.

Chen Xin was not very optimistic about the prospects of this family, Zhou Shifa followed Dai Zheng to enter the city in the first batch, and put the forged letters of Li Jiucheng into Chen's bedroom early, and they had been searched out by several fans.

This Chen sometimes left Lushun in the original history, and couldn't wait to go to Dengzhou to vote for Kong Youde. However, he is an unknown person, Chen Xin didn't know that he would do this kind of thing later, and he still felt a little sorry for this family in his heart.

Chen Xin stayed for a while and walked out of the lobby, Zhou Shifa immediately followed, he fell half a step behind and asked Chen Xin in a low voice: "Da Jin, my subordinates feel that the matter of screening those officers should not be done by Lu Zhi, this is the time to sell love, Lu Zhi will definitely collect his henchmen inside." Then the king went to settle down and enter his heart, and this heart was taken away by them. ”

Chen Xin smiled and said: "Lushun is a place where military exploits will be made in the future, if you swallow it in one bite, Lu Zhi and Wang Tingxuan will have a suspicion sooner or later." Lu Zhi and Wang Ting's henchmen who want to collect must be more than 1,000 generals, these generals' habits are incompatible with my Wendeng camp, and they are useless to use them, if they want to collect them, they will definitely do some smuggling and other businesses after they enter the rì, Lu Zhi and Wang Tingtry can collect money in Dengzhou, so they have some benefits, Lushun has their white spoon here, and they give them some military merits, so that they can get along with Shangguan. ”

Zhou Shifa was stunned, but he was still worried: "But they are here, and those soldiers have become their tenants." ”

"The old and the weak are left to them." Chen Xin did not hesitate, "The land of Chen and his henchmen sometimes belongs to us, there should be thousands of Liao people here, let's still recruit troops and open Tunbao, and bring all the strong men into our side, and let them be idle to make money." Land, income and silver, now we are not short of silver, let some of it be given to them, these two Shangguan are good to my Wendeng camp, don't lose a big one because of a small one. ”

"My subordinates understood."

"Let's take a look at the terrain." Chen Xin stretched his hands and feet and shouted, "Wang Mafu! ”

"Here!" Wang Mafu ran out of the lobby.

"Did the Chinese light cavalry disembark?"

"I just reported it, and I got down, but the horse hasn't gotten down yet."

"You're shit." Chen Xin secretly cursed, the efficiency of transporting cavalry is too low, this time a cavalry battalion and the Chinese light cavalry only had a total of more than 500 horses, but they took up nearly 20 large ships. Horses can only be tied to the deck, and they are not trained in sea, so they are extremely unsuitable at sea, and two percent of them fall ill after only two sails, and the rest are not in good condition and need time to adjust. Fortunately, this time he landed from the pier, and if it was a landing operation, he didn't think about it, he estimated that if it was transferred by small boat, it would definitely be a disaster.

Since there was no horse, Chen Xin didn't plan to walk to see it, so he had to ask Wang Mafu, "Has the instructor been sent out?" ”

"They have been sent out, and they have preached in all parts of the city."

Lu Zhi was screening all the officers, Chen Xin took advantage of the absence of the officers, and first sent the instructor to carry out propaganda to collect ordinary soldiers, and he planned to use the method of the Battle of Dengzhou to build a temporary baggage camp in Lushun.

"What about the reserve camp? Is the city defense takeover finished? ”

"The two thousand headquarters of the reserve battalion have all disembarked and are assembling outside the Tongjin Gate. Renhemen has been controlled by the 2,000th headquarters, and Dai Qianzong is currently deploying defense at Renhemen, and the wharf is currently transferring grain and grass to get off the ship. ”

"Speed up, you have to leave for Lushun in two years. Let the horses of the Chinese army disembark first, and immediately after the recovery, they will first sentry in the direction of Jinzhou. ”

Chen Xin thought that there was really nothing else to do, and suddenly asked Wang Mafu: "Where is Liu Pojun?" ”

"Take it to Lushun as you instructed, continue to enforce the confinement, and there are still three more to expire."

Chen Xin groaned and said, "Take me to see." ”

Wang Mafu hurriedly led the way in front and went west along the lobby, where was the grain depot of the deputy general's mansion and the house of the family, and there were more than ten houses of the family, all of which were now arrested and screened, and the inside had been emptied.

As soon as Chen Xin walked to the door, he heard a loud roar inside, he stopped, only to hear the person shouting: "Your mother, you talk to Lao Tzu, don't show face to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu followed Chen Dajin in seven years, and fought all the battles of Wendeng Camp, you Poqiu Ba didn't know where at that time, you talk to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is about to suffocate to death." ”
