(The second update, ask for a red ticket)

Cold rain in early winter, raindrops fell from the treetops, luxury flying tiger draped in rain, for a long time, the armor on his body was still soaked by the rain, he came over, came to the fire, took the stump and sat down, and the fire dissipated the chill on his body.

On a rainy night, there was no light on the stars and moon, except for the campfires on the mountain and under the mountain, there was no light between heaven and earth - they could see the campfire of the Jiangdong Left Army at the foot of the mountain and at the northwest foothill, and the Jiangdong Left Army could also see the campfire on their side through the forest gap, but the forest was deep and steep, so that the Jiangdong Left Army could not come over to clear it. Of course, they hid in the woods and were unable to launch an attack on the camps of the Jiangdong Left Army.

Qin Zitan sat weakly against the stump, with a simple canopy above his head, and occasionally raindrops seeped in and fell into the fire, making a slight noise, and water vapor evaporated out...... Fortunately, the rain was not strong, otherwise this kind of simple canopy made of tree branches would not be of much use, Qin Zitan saw that the luxury flying tiger came back, and saw him look depressed, knowing that it was impossible to break through the blockade of the North Beach camp of the Jiangdong Left Army to the East Island.

It was already the seventh day of being trapped at the eastern foot of Jinji Mountain, and Su Tingzhan had hidden some grain in the cave at the eastern foot earlier to avoid trouble, but the quantity was limited, including the rations carried by the generals afterwards, and there was not much left today, and the birds and beasts in the forest were also eaten.

Although the forests of Jinji Mountain are large and dense, how many wild things can fill the stomachs of 3,000 people on the isolated island?

The Jiangdong Left Army's camp in Beitan was built more and more solid, and a wooden fence wall was enclosed outside the wooden fence barracks, and the middle was filled with soil and tamped, which was comparable to an ordinary barracks, and the Jiangdong Left Army was a cutting-edge division, and there were no rushing vehicles, stone throwing crossbows and other combat equipment here, and it was impossible to capture the Beitan camp with only 3,000 soldiers and armor.

If he can't defeat the North Beach camp, the plan to evacuate all three thousand generals from Daheng Island is delusional, Qin Zitan saw that he was frowning, and his face was so gloomy that he was about to drip, knowing the unwillingness in his heart.

Even if the situation in eastern Zhejiang is stable, how many warships can the eldest prince draw to help - the luxury family lost too many warships on the northern front, especially in the battle of beach, sixty or seventy warships fell to the enemy. The eldest prince may not be able to organize a boat division in eastern Zhejiang that can compete with the Jiangdong Left Army at sea in a short period of time.

What is Lin Bin's idea? What he wanted was to encircle the point and send reinforcements, hoping that the eldest prince would send troops to rescue him in a hurry, so that he could inflict another heavy defeat on the luxury family in the waters south of Shengsi, so as to achieve his reputation as an undefeated envoy in Jinghai.

The eldest prince knew in his heart that it was impossible to send reinforcements at the risk of the great situation in eastern Zhejiang being completely overturned, and he would only use the cover of the night to send a small boat through the blockade line of the Jiangdong Left Army Boat Division and approach Daheng Island.

The terrain of the southern foot of Jinji Mountain is complicated, there is no easy place to moor the boat, the reefs, the cliffs and rocks are staggered, the boat from Daishan can take advantage of the dark and rainy night to get closer, and it is only three or five small boats at a time, send one or two thousand catties of grain to the island, and pick up twenty or thirty people to leave......

There is little rain in autumn and winter, and this rain lasts for three days, which is really very lucky, very rare.

Once the rain stops and the night clears, and the stars and the moon pass through the sky, the blockade of Daheng Island by the Jiangdong Left Army Boat Division will be tightened again, and it will be impossible to leave if you want to, and it will be impossible to send any relief to the island.

**********

At this time, there was a small sound in the forest, and through the faint light from the campfire, I saw Su Tingzhan walking over with a deep foot and a shallow foot. The forest path was difficult to walk, and he was splashed with mud, so he was afraid that he would sneak through the forest and fall a few times.

When Su Tingzhan walked into the canopy, Qin Zitan saw the face of the middle-aged man wearing armor behind him, and he was startled, struggling to kneel down and salute. The middle-aged man pressed his shoulder, suppressed his voice and said, "Zitan doesn't need to be polite, Feihu and the luxury family broke your arm, I should give you a salute to make amends." ”

Qin Zitan choked up inexplicably, and when he heard this, he felt that it was worth breaking this arm for the luxury family.

When he saw his father in disguise, he was also shocked, and he was dumbfounded.

"Are you wondering how I got here?" Hao Wenzhuang glared and scolded hatefully, "I'm not coming, why are you willing to go, you brute?" ”

"I," Yu Feihu was speechless, he didn't expect that his father had gone to eastern Zhejiang to secretly preside over the war, let alone that his father insisted on not sending reinforcements to rescue.

"Do you think it's because your eldest brother wants to weaken your power that he refuses to send troops to save you? How many old soldiers of Jin'an and how many loyal and luxurious generals do you want to bow their heads and admit defeat because you are buried on Daheng Island? The words that came out of the words of Hao Wenzhuang pressed his throat pierced the heart of Hao Feihu.

"Most of the three thousand soldiers on this island are the sons of Jin An, how can I leave them behind?" Extravagant Feihu was full of tears, and his heart was extremely wronged, unwilling and unwilling, all of which were presented in his tiger eyes.

"It's really not any growth at all," Hao Wenzhuang scolded in a low voice that hated iron and steel, "Zitan has caused you to break an arm, don't you even have the courage to break an arm?" He didn't pay any attention to the second son, Hao Feihu, and ordered Su Tingzhan directly, "Leave tonight, you all go, those who can get out if you don't alarm will go, and those who can't go, let them abandon their weapons and surrender to the Jiangdong Left Army, and take them back in the future, it is the luxury family that owes them, and I will apologize to them in the future...... Don't be afraid that if you don't have soldiers back to eastern Zhejiang, it won't be easy to speak, and the luxury family won't treat you badly! ”

**********

On the morning of the 21st, seeing the remnants of the brigade descending the mountain one after another and throwing away their armor, Lin Jian knew that Hao Feihu, Qin Zitan, Su Tingzhan, Cheng Yiqun and others had quietly fled from Daheng Island under the cover of the rainy night.

"It's really strange," Lin Lian shook his head in confusion and said, "I didn't expect Luxury Feihu to leave without saying a word, I thought he would only leave after hitting his head in front of the North Beach camp!" ”

"What are going to happen to these captives?" It was already the third day that Zhao Qinmin stayed on the island, and the war in Jinan was beyond their reach, so they could only send messengers to Jiangning to inform Yue Lengqiu to transfer the Huai army to cross the Huai River in time to make some preparations.

The luxury family abandoned the three thousand remnants as outcasts, and the two thousand soldiers trapped in Hecheng would also surrender sooner or later, so that Chongzhou would have seven or eight thousand young and strong men to drive.

Lin Jian said with a smile: "Chongzhou city construction, dredging, river digging, manure, tuntian and many other things, all of which require a lot of labor, but I don't have to worry about not being able to arrange their whereabouts." Jiangdong built a prison city in Chongzhou, and if seven or eight thousand prisoners of war had nowhere to arrange, it would be a vain name. ”

***************

On the 21st and 22nd, nearly 2,680 or so men abandoned their weapons and surrendered, and Lin bound Fu Qinghe to take charge of the military affairs of the Shengsi Islands, and governed the Chongcheng Bu Battalion, the Fengli Bu Battalion, and the Jinghai Second Water Battalion.

The Shengsi Islands will be the center of defense of the Jiangdong Left Army for a long time, and Lin Jian will also do everything in his power to strengthen the Jinghai Second Water Battalion that stayed on Daheng Island.

In addition to one Jinhai-class warship, five Jiyun-class warships, and nine two-masted fast galleys warships, there are also 18 medium-sized warships such as loach ships and Cangshan ships, 22 other auxiliary ships, 1,800 soldiers, and 1,000 auxiliaries.

The number of warships and the strength of the second water battalion of Jinghai are enough to reach the third battalion boat division formed by the town army, and due to the large number of township warriors incorporated in a short period of time, the combat effectiveness will inevitably decline, but it is not beyond the reach of the military water battalion of Koubing Town in the surrounding water village.

The Chongcheng Infantry Battalion and the Fengli Infantry Battalion were both expanded to six outposts, and a total of 2,400 soldiers were stationed on Daheng Island, which were stationed in Shiwan and Beitan.

In addition, Lin Jian also organized 600 Xiangyong as auxiliary soldiers, and also planned to move some exile prisoners to Daheng Island.

Lin Jian asked Fu Qinghe to overcome all difficulties, not only to further strengthen the Qingshiwan Cape Fort, the Beilu Yingbao and the Beitan Camp, but also to open a passage connecting Qingshiwan and Beitan at the northern foot of Jinji Mountain in a short period of time.

The topography on both sides of Qingshi Bay should also be vigorously reformed, as many fields as possible, the shallow silt areas should be dug deep and widened, so that more warships could be berthed in the inner harbor, straight roads should be built on both sides of the river, and stone dams should be built to connect the headland at the mouth of the bay with the south bank, so as to overcome the defensive defects of the inner line, which is not easy to move.

In addition to the headland fort guard, the mouth of the bay should also be equipped with more hidden piles and barrage chains, stone crossbows, more docks in the inner harbor, and the inner dock should also be built immediately, so that the defense of Daheng Island must be integrated in the short term, and it will become an impregnable sea fortress on the outer line of Chongzhou.

In addition to Haiyu Chen's family's promise to supply Daheng Island with 5,000 stone rice grains free of charge every month, Lin Jian took another 2,000 pairs of high-quality armor to exchange with Haiyu's Chen family for materials urgently needed for the construction of Daheng Island.

In the battle on the northern front, in addition to the 2,000 soldiers trapped in Hecheng, the Jiangdong Left Army annihilated and captured nearly 10,000 soldiers before and after, bringing the principle of "great creation and annihilation" to the extreme, and capturing countless warships and armor.

Although the Chen family has sufficient financial resources, but the township battalion armor needs to be prepared by their own iron governance, Haiyu has no foundation in this regard, lacks qualified craftsmen, and has no technology to cast swords, swords and soldiers are difficult to have elite, and armor is even more scarce.

Two thousand high-quality armor pieces are naturally worth a lot of money to the Haiyu Township Battalion, but the price it takes for Lin Jian to build Daheng Island into an impregnable sea fortress is not a small amount.

The luxury family did not pay enough attention to the Shengsi Islands for a while, and did not expect that the Jiangdong Left Army would rise so strongly on the sea, and it was also because of the lack of financial resources that the luxury family did not bother to manage Daheng Island, resulting in this dangerous place falling into the hands of the Jiangdong Left Army.

The topography of the West Island is conducive to the construction of a complex and perfect water and land defense system, and the construction of an impregnable Great Wall on the sea; The terrain of East Island is long and narrow, low and flat, and there is no danger to defend, but the ground is warm and humid, and it is a rare and excellent island grassland, with an area of 20,000 or 30,000 acres.

As long as the passage connecting Qingshi Bay and Beitan is opened, and the Beitan camp is used as the base, it is easy to raise hundreds of war horses on the 20,000 or 30,000 acres of grassland on the East Island.

In addition, the abundant water and grass in the coastal areas around the island, the stocking of beach chickens, ducks and geese, as well as the stocking of pigs and sheep in the forest, can provide meat for the defenders on the island and relieve the supply pressure of Chongzhou.

On the 23rd, Lin Jian led the Jinghai No. 1 Water Battalion to escort nearly 3,000 prisoners of war across the sea and return to Chongzhou.
