Liu Jiahao has a good impression of the two brothers Lin Jian'an and Lin Jianyue, who were both born as mountain bandits, and feels that they are their close comrades-in-arms who are like-minded.

Liu Jiahao had long wanted to send someone to contact Lin Jianyue, but Lin Jianyue didn't stay in Ruzhou much after he took the throne, and he got married and went to Jianning. As a party, he has his own identity and is very conceited, and he disdains to talk to Lin Jianyue's subordinates, like Zhu Jianheng or something, he doesn't care.

Liu Jiahao can change from a bandit leader to a local force, he has the ability, he is not a problem to march and fight, and he is particularly good at mountain warfare, he has been besieged by the Menghu army several times, but Liu Jiahao used the terrain to counterattack successfully, and the Hu army in Shangzhou is also helpless against Liu Jiahao, and has been stalemate until now.

It's just that Shangzhou is really small and narrow, and Liu Jiahao can't develop and grow. He had seen Tie Qingfeng, but he looked down on Tie Qingfeng a little, thinking that Tie Qingfeng was fighting against Hu, but he was not bent on fighting Hu, he always had unrealistic ambitions and desires, and he was unwilling to cling to it.

Liu Jiahao knew Lin Jianyue's rise to prominence, especially admired Lin Jianyue's idea of expelling the Tartars, and admired Lin Jianyue's courage.

Now Lin Jianyue is officially appointed by the imperial court as the envoy of the Three Towns Festival, the Longjie army is in control, the school is inspected, and the founding prince of Nanyang County is right, and Liu Jiahao is very envious.

Liu Jiahao did not write to the imperial court, hoping to have an official name. It's just that he doesn't have more than 10,000 soldiers, and he occupies only three counties, and he is still in the mountains, which is insignificant, and the court doesn't take him seriously at all.

What happened to Lin Jianyue in the court, Liu Jiahao also inquired, and felt that Lin Jianyue was a lover, and he looked down on the court even more, but he was more interested in relying on Lin Jianyue.

Liu Jiahao had received a notice from Long Jiejun in advance that Lin Jianyue had led a large army into Shangzhou, would be stationed outside Shangjin County, and would meet with him.

Liu Jiahao didn't have too many doubts and hesitations, Lin Jianyue really wanted to do something to him, just push him over, he couldn't resist it, and he didn't believe that Lin Jianyue would do this, maybe let him see Long Jiejun's military appearance?

Came to the Longjie army camp outside the city, the camp tents were one after another, and there was no money in sight, Liu Jiahao estimated tens of thousands of people.

In Liu Jiahao's eyes, the military appearance is very neat, the soldiers are tall and strong, the armor is distinct, orderly, and murderous, even if it is not wartime, the training is still strict, and I feel much stronger than my own thousands of grass-headed troops.

With four or five people went straight to the camp of the Chinese army, just outside the big tent, I saw a young man wearing a special style jacket of Yongling standing outside the big tent and greeting him with a smile.

Liu Jiahao didn't think that this was disrespectful to him, but was very kind, obviously Lin Jianyue had understood him, and this was the greatest respect.

Lin Jianyue has clothes that are in line with his status and official position, but he doesn't like to wear them, and only uses them on special occasions. In addition to Liu Bingyun's great dissatisfaction, as long as Long Jiejun is not training to fight, he wears such clothes on weekdays, forming a special scenery on Jingnan Road.

Liu Jiahao dismounted from afar, unsheathed his sword, and walked forward quickly and saluted: "Shangnan Liu Jiahao, I have come to meet the festival commander!" "Before I started to say anything, I put myself in the position of my subordinates, once the man in Yongling made a decision, he was not hypocritical, and it was his attitude to meet alone.

"No need to be polite, Liu Dashuai is famous, I heard Liu Dashuai's heroic deeds against Hu when I was a bandit, and I am considered a junior when I expel the Tartars. It's already very disrespectful to meet in the barracks today, but it doesn't matter, there will be more opportunities to meet and get along in the future. ”

When we met for the first time, they were all long-term leaders, and it was necessary to praise each other, and we all said that the atmosphere was quickly harmonious, and it was time to get down to business.

After three rounds of drinking, Lin Jianyue said first: "The current anti-Hu situation in the Central Plains is not good, Liu Shuai knows that I have always thought that it is impossible to defeat Menghu alone, and only by forming a joint force can we achieve more results, I want to invite Liu Shuai to lead his troops to join the Long Jie army, I don't know what to do?" ”

Lin Jianyue didn't make a wish as soon as he came up, and people didn't come for this, and the expulsion of the Tartars was everyone's common will. also put Liu Jiahao in a very high position, even if Liu Jiahao does not agree today, Lin Jianyue will not force it.

Liu Jiahao knows very well, not to mention comparing with Long Jiejun, even any state, its strength is stronger than him, Lin Jianyue personally came to invite him, which actually gave him a lot of face.

Liu Jiahao immediately bowed down and said: "Liu is willing to obey the orders of the marshal!" ”

Lin Jianyue hurriedly helped Liu Jiahao up, took his arm and said with a smile: "Liu Shuai is refreshing, from today onwards, you and I will be brothers, let us create a great cause of anti-Hu together!" ”

Now that we have reached an agreement, we have to talk about the next arrangement.

"Although Shangzhou is not big, but the strategic location is very critical, the north can pass through Guanzhong, and the east can threaten Luoyang, I intend to form the Eighth Army of the Longjie Army with Brother Liu's subordinates as the mainstay, and supply supplementary grain and grass equipment. Brother Liu was appointed as the deputy commander of the Longjie Army and the commander of the Eighth Army, and wrote to the imperial court to make him the envoy of the Shangzhou defense system and the guerrilla general. Shangzhou is the back of Long Jiejun's belly, and it will be handed over to Liu to control. ”

Liu Jiahao was overjoyed, why he couldn't develop before, that is, there was a lack of people, food, weapons and armor, Shangzhou was too small, and he couldn't pass the Wuguan City moat. Now with support, once the Eighth Army develops, it can capture Shangzhou alone.

The power has not shrunk, but has expanded, and there is a name, even if it is a subordinate, Liu Jiahao is willing. He just wanted to expel the Tatars and restore the Central Plains, and he had no ambitions, and he was very grateful to Lin Jianyue for his generosity and trust, and felt that this was the person who made great achievements.

"Rest assured, once the Eighth Army is formed, I will definitely be optimistic about Shangzhou for Marshal Jie."

"Okay, don't hide it from Brother Liu, I have one more thing to do this time, that is, I went to Wuguancheng to meet with my second brother Zhu Jianheng to discuss the strategy of Shangluo and Shangluo Hujun, once successful, Shangzhou will be owned by Long Jiejun. Brother Liu is good at mountain warfare, and when the time comes, he can lead the Shangzhou army to cross the mountain pass and cooperate with me to attack Luoyang, which will have miraculous results. ”

Liu Jiahao was taken aback, and finally knew what Lin Jianyue was doing with the army, and hurriedly said: "Zhu Jianheng will not let the army of the commander enter the city, how can the commander take the risk lightly?" I have seen Zhu Jianheng, and I think he has some wrong intentions, and even suspects that he has surrendered to Menghu! Don't worry, within three years, I will take Shangzhou for Jieshuai, and Jieshuai can't go. ”

Lin Jianyue sighed and said, "But Menghu won't give me three years, at most next year, maybe this year, Menghu will attack my Ruzhou again." Now nearly 200,000 troops have gathered around Luoyang, if there are no surprise moves, although the next battle cannot be said to be defeated, it will be difficult. And if he takes advantage of his unpreparedness, Brother Liu leads a surprise army to attack Luoyang when I confront the main force of Menghu, and he will definitely win a big victory, and it is also possible to drive the Hu army on the western front across the Yellow River, then the situation will be very different. ”

Lin Jianyue has been thinking about this strategy for a long time, even if Liu Jiahao does not join the Long Jie Army, he will implement it in this way, and now he is naturally more confident, so he is so urgent.

"Besides, Zhu Jianheng grew up with me since he was a child, and he is also very good to me, and now he represents my eldest brother Lin Jian'an, there should be no conspiracy. What's more, this time I brought the first army over, and it was stationed near Sidaoling in front of Wuguan City, and there was cavalry support behind it. ”

Liu Jiahao was worried, he still felt that it was inappropriate, he just saw hope, if something really happened to Lin Jianyue, everything would be in vain.

But seeing Lin Jianyue's resolute attitude, he can't say that even his brother can't believe this kind of in this situation, he also knows who Lin Jianyue is.

Liu Jiahao simply didn't persuade him, went back directly to gather people, followed Lin Jianyue to Wuguan City, and arranged for his henchmen to lead people over the mountains to prepare for dangerous positions.
