The army traveled from the mall to Gyeonggi on the official road.

All the way north, it can be described as unimpeded and very smooth.

When Yongning Hou saw the boundary monument, he had a lot of doubts in his heart.

Still, he set up camp on the spot.

The main tent was tied.

Qin Luan made a pot of tea, poured one and handed it to Yongning Hou.

Qin Yin took a sip and looked at the map, engrossed.

After a long time, he put down the finished teacup and rubbed his neck to ease his mind: "You're old......"

Qin Luan heard him mutter, laughed, raised his hand, and slapped it on Qin Yin's shoulder.

Yongning Hou glanced sideways, and saw that there was more bright yellow things behind his shoulders, and couldn't help but smile: "It's still Ah Luan's intimate." ”

"You're obviously saying I'm stingy," Qin Luan said with a smile, "If you don't speak, I won't take the initiative to take it out." ”

Yongning Hou listened to her joke, laughed, and simply stretched out his right palm and spread it flat.

Qin Luan didn't say a word, took a few more and pressed them on his grandfather's palm.

"The old man has to put it away," Yongning Hou said happily, "one by one, all the good things in their eyes, don't hide them, and they all scavenged them!" ”

When Qin Luan heard this, he was overjoyed.

"Where is 'one by one', who is 'them'," Qin Luan ruthlessly debunked Yongning Hou, "Grandmother is the only one who can scavenge good things from you." ”

Yongning Hou was said to be blushing: "Your grandmother, the female Guan Gong, one person is better than thousands of troops." ”

In these words, there are proud, praise, a little ridicule, and full of pride.

Qin Luan couldn't laugh.

These days, when she was marching, she naturally didn't have much time to do her daily lessons.

The peace charms that I had saved before, I used more and drew less, so I didn't give several as I did before.

Of course, it was not the time to detain and search.

Grandfather here, to say the least, also hid more than a dozen, but he wanted to shout "less" to have fun.

"What were you thinking about?" Qin Luan laughed enough and asked about something important.

"Our journey has been a bit unusual." Yongning Hou Dao.

Qin Luan also has some experience of this.

After raising troops from the mall, the state capitals along the way did not react, and none of them stood up.

"Where in the capital, I heard that it was Zhong Qinbo's command?" Qin Luan asked again.

Yongning Hou bowed.

The scouts who had gone ahead sent back some news.

The capital has been heavily guarded in the past few days, and it is not as convenient for the people to enter and exit the city as it used to be, and a long queue has formed inside and outside the city gate, and the officers and soldiers have checked one by one.

Qin Luan wanted to ask a few words, but there was a voice outside, saying that "His Highness is back".

Soon, Lin Fan opened the curtain and came in.

He was still wearing a battle robe, and Qin Luan took the silver helmet he took off and said "hard work".

Lin Fan quietly winked at her, stepped forward, and saluted Yongning Hou.

"The grain transported by Chen Jiacang has been detained," Lin Fan said, "Feng Jing watched and escorted it back. ”

Yongning Hou bowed his head, pointed to Yutu and Lin Fandao: "It seems that Jingli is planning to defend it." ”

This time, there will be several responses in Beijing, and they have all planned before.

or send troops out of the city to meet the attack, or hold on to the city.

For Zhao Li, it is not a bad idea to take the initiative to attack, put on a posture, and with the subsequent mobilization of troops from various state capitals, as well as urging Feimen Pass and sending troops to capture thieves in the south.

However, judging from the position of Lin Fan and Yongning Hou, this is a lot more troublesome.

It's not that they can't be defeated, but that there is damage in battle.

is also a soldier of the Great Zhou, Yongning Hou hopes to minimize all kinds of damage.

And sticking to the city, it seems that there is a tall city wall as a backing, which can delay time and wait for other local troops to come to the rescue, but it is too passive.

Trapped and defended, prosperous as Beijing, easy to defend and difficult to attack as Xizhou City, they are all facing the same problem.

Will reinforcements come, and when?

Can the food in the city be sustained?

Xizhou accepted the persuasion to surrender, how long can Jingshi hold out when the people are panicked?

In Qin Yin's view, Zhongqinbo's choice to defend the city is not a good idea, but it is more beneficial to his own side.

Therefore, two days ago, the Marquis of Yongning dispatched troops and dispersed his men to take over the granaries in the Gyeonggi area.

At the beginning of the year, Lin Fan arrested the spy Ma Gui.

Ma Gui thoroughly explored the distribution and reserves of granaries in Dazhou.

Avoiding follow-up risks, the distribution of reserves was mobilized at that time, and Lin Fan, who was in charge of Ma Gui's case, also knew the results of this grain transfer.

Although half a year has passed, the quantity will not change much, as long as new autumn grain is added to the warehouse.

The general situation of the grain and grass harvest in this land may not be able to be answered by others, but the eldest princess of Pingyang is like a treasure.

The granaries in the distance, such as Jiangnan and Lianghu, don't care at all.

The only thing they want to focus on is the granaries that can send grain and grass into the capital in such a short period of time from the dispatch of troops to the siege of the Beijing division.

In addition to Chenjiacang, which was led by Lin Fan, the rest of the granaries also sent troops.

Qin Yuan, who had been chattering and screaming to show his strength, followed Mrs. Yongning Hou and the Ji family to a place.

Qin Zhi took his nephew Qin Feng and went to a place.

The eldest princess and Lin Zhi were even more cavalry fast, bypassing the Beijing division and heading north, intending to tightly choke the grain delivery route on the north side.

For these granaries, the emphasis is on guarding, not plundering.

First, if the subsequent siege of Beijing becomes a protracted battle, these stored grains will also be a supply for the army.

Second, the local people also have to survive, when the two armies are fighting, the state capital is the easiest to fish in troubled waters, and having food in hand can ensure that once something happens, the people will not go hungry.

As for the capital, as long as it is surrounded, it will not be able to get out or enter.

The siege was achieved, and those granaries no longer needed to be heavily guarded, and could be pulled back.

Lin Fan's gaze also fell on the map, and said, "Uncle Zhongqin, guarding the city is very strange. ”

With the old uncle's ability, it is impossible not to see through the pros and cons of the two.

"He guards the city, but he is not a hall of words," Yongning Hou said, "The capital is lively." ”

"Yes." Lin Fan smiled.

The emperor has his own ideas, Huang Taishi wants to "drag his feet", and there are other people with different positions, and Zhongqinbo is caught in the middle.

"The old man still thought that even if Feng Zhong and An Beihou couldn't preside over the battle, they would be able to get a deputy general," Yongning Hou sighed, "As a result, nothing was caught." ”

Accidental?

Not very surprising.

The emperor is suspicious, and it is inevitable that this will be the case.

Similarly, people's hearts cannot withstand suspicion, and the more the emperor distrusts him, the more Feng Zhong and Anbei Hou will be biased towards Lin Fan.

"The old uncle is handsome, it should be for the sake of Concubine Shun." Qin Luan said.

"The emperor has a grudge against Concubine Shun, even if he releases people from the cold palace in the face of the old uncle, he will not be as favored as before," Lin Fan knows the emperor very well, "Once the old uncle is no longer needed, he will still unload the mill and kill the donkey." ”

Especially, the old uncle is old.

A few sons are not useful, and after a hundred years of the old uncle, who will support Concubine Shun?

Yongning Hou raised his eyebrows: "If the old man were him, he would open the city gate directly!" ”
