(The second watch, the sky is already dawning, ask for a red ticket)

Lin Jian was most concerned about the luxury family, and long before the Jiangdong Left Army became an army, he sent sentinels to Jin'an, Jian'an and other places.

At this time, the luxury family divided troops from western Zhejiang to attack and seize Xianxia Pass and Shanguan, blocking the passage in and out of western Zhejiang and Jiangxi, and Yu Wangao in Jian'an, Shaowu, Pucheng and other places will naturally open a net to guard against the infiltration of enemy scouts, and it is extremely difficult for the sentinels of the Jiangdong Left Army to pass through the blockade network of the enemy and us and transmit the news back to Chongzhou.

On the fifth day of November, Lin Jian received information from Jian'an from the sentinel in Jiangning.

After knowing that the luxury family sent troops to attack eastern Zhejiang, the county division of eastern Zhejiang had a dispute over whether the luxury family could send troops, and the Xuanfu envoy and the inspection envoy insisted on asking the imperial court for instructions before dealing with it, and the governor Yu Wangao was worried that the back road would be intercepted, so he divided the east and west roads from Jian'an to guard the back road of Xianxia Pass and Shanguan.

The letter road was deliberately blocked by the luxury family, and when the county division of eastern Zhejiang confirmed the news of the luxury family's dispatch of troops to eastern Zhejiang in Jian'an Mansion in the middle reaches of the Min River, it was already October 24. Also on the 24th, a number of granaries in Jian'an City and the streets and alleys of the neighboring storage places were on a large scale of water and fire, so tossed, Yu Wangao resolutely divided troops from Jian'an on the 25th to guard Shanguan and Xianxia Pass.

On the 25th, Xianxia Pass had been obtained by the luxury family from the strange soldiers of western Zhejiang, and on the 26th, Shanguan also fell one after another.

Around the 27th, the Jian'an army was ambushed in the valley road in the north of Pucheng and the northwest of Shaowu, and the east road was defeated, and Pucheng took advantage of the chaos to capture, and the defeated army retreated until Jianzhou (now Jian'ou) to stabilize the position; The West Road Jian'an Army retreated to Shaowu.

On the 28th, all the counties of Jin'an rebelled, except for the Jianyang Zhixian who was missing, the officials of other counties sent by the imperial court to Jin'an, such as the county magistrates and county lieutenants, all tied up the rebels and sent them to the luxury family, and the Jin'an rebels led by the eight surnames of Luxury, Xu, and Song were allied with blood, and formed the Fujian and Zhejiang Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and jointly promoted the luxury Wenzhuang as the Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang.

And on the 26th, the Song army led by Yongtaibo Song Fu sent troops south to capture Quanzhou.

The news came out of Jianzhou on the 29th, and it took only eight days to reach Jiangning, which can already be said to be fast. The counties of northern Zhejiang, Jiangdong, and Jiangxi are not even clear about the situation in Jin'an and Jian'an.

After Xianxia Pass and Shanguan sent troops to take away the luxury family, there were no troops to send to western Zhejiang and southern Jiangxi to recapture the key passes, and some officials were even worried that Yu Wangao, who had been robbed on the back road, would return to the luxury family.

In Lin Bin's opinion, Yu Wangao and his generals have fought a bloody battle with the luxury family for nearly ten years, and each other's hands are stained with each other's blood, where will it be light?

Besides, Yu Wangao has already paid homage to the commander, and the military attache rank is the captain of the light car on the third grade, and he has been named the county uncle of Qingjiang, and he has lowered the luxury family, what official position can the luxury family give him?

When the news came out of Jianzhou on the 29th, Yu Wangao's Jian'an army was still in control of the three cities of Jianzhou, Shaowu, and Jian'an in northern Fujian, and the Jin rebels led by the luxury family were more interested in taking Zhangzhou first after seizing Quanzhou.

There are many hills and few plains in eastern Fujian, there is a saying that there are nine points of mountains and one division of fields, the topography forms the characteristics of high in the northwest and low in the southeast, and the main plains are only a few narrow places such as Jin'an, Quanzhou, and Zhangzhou.

These several Duotian plains are concentrated in the narrow coastal belt with Jin'an as the north end and Zhangzhou as the south end, and the north and south are no more than 500 miles long.

"Yu Wangao's Jian'an army is actually surrounded by the Jin'an rebels......" Gu Wuchen learned the news from Jianzhou on the 29th from Lin Lian, his eyes stared at the slightly rough map of Eastern Fujian, frowning at the current embarrassing situation, and also worried about Yu Wangao's Jian'an army.

Lin Jian held his chin, silently, and glanced at Liu Xilin, wanting to see what he had to say.

"The mountains and rivers in northern Fujian are separated and the streams are wrong, and the way out for the Jian'an army is nothing more than to attack Jin'an along the Min River, or to attack Shanguan and Xianxia Pass, and open up the channel connecting Jiangxi and western Zhejiang," with the encouragement of Lin Bin, Liu Xilin stood up and said, "The eight surnames have operated Jin'an for nearly two hundred years, making Jin'an the first male city in eastern Fujian." Although the Jian'an Army has the momentum of building, it is really difficult to overcome. Once the forced siege of the city is frustrated, the Jian'an army will be in a desperate situation, Yu Wangao is good at knowing military affairs, and most of them will not take this strategy. The Jin'an rebels have occupied Mingzhou and Huiji, and the strange soldiers have seized Xianxia Pass, instigating the miners to rebel in Xianxialing, and Quzhou has become a dangerous place. Without reinforcements sent, Quzhou will fall soon, the Jin'an rebels will soon be connected in southern Zhejiang, and Yu Wanguo will recapture Xianxia Pass from the hands of the luxury family, and it will be difficult to start with Shanguan......"

Shanguan is located between Fuzhou, Jiangxi and Zhaowu in Eastern Fujian, and the luxury family sent two thousand elites to go to the Yushui Valley, crossing the mountains between Xinzhou and Fuzhou, before taking Shanguan unexpectedly.

As long as Xinzhou and Fuzhou are not lost, the 2,000 elites who occupy Shanguan are really lone troops, and they are attacked by Yu Wangao and Jiangxi County soldiers, and there is no food and grass and reinforcements, so they only occupy a thin Guancheng, and they may not be able to hold it for long.

However, Sugiguan is located between the mountains and mountains, and it is not easy to recapture it.

It is estimated that the final key is to see whether the grain and grass of the Shanguan defenders are exhausted first, or the Jian'an army can not stabilize the army's heart first, maybe the Jin'an rebels who enter eastern Zhejiang will attack Xinzhou, Jiangxi, and solve the threat of the flank of Shanguan.

The Jian'an army has nearly 20,000 soldiers, and it is far from enough to rely on Zhaowu, Jianzhou, and Jian'an mountain cities to provide support, and the food and salary are all shipped from western Zhejiang and Jiangxi. The luxury family sent troops just before the autumn salary was paid, and sent secret agents to burn the grain storage in the cities of Jian'an in advance, and it is not clear how long the grain and grass of the Jian'an army will last after the salary source is cut off. In such a situation, it is difficult for the military to remain unwavering.

As far as the situation in southern Zhejiang is concerned, except for the counties of Mingzhou and Huiji, the rebels of the Jin family have been taken away with lightning speed, but Quzhou, Taizhou, Pingyang, Chuzhou and other counties in southern Zhejiang have not yet fallen.

Longshan was defeated, the Zhejiang soldiers were exhausted, and a small number of defeated soldiers also fled across the sea and rivers into Jiaxing, Hangzhou and other places to accept reorganization, and the defense of southern Zhejiang counties could only rely on local township soldiers. Dong Yuan was able to mobilize only 20,000 troops in Jiahang Lake and other places on the north bank of the Qianjiang River, mainly the Weiyang Army and the Ning Navy, and the elite was limited.

The Jin'an rebels suddenly seized Mingzhou and Huiji, and the Jian'an army of Yu Wangao was sent to the mountain city of northern Fujian, and they were going to send troops to seize Zhangquan and other places.

The Jin'an rebels could not take action to seize the southern Zhejiang provinces, and the southeastern counties could not draw elite troops to aid the two Zhejiang.

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

At the end of October, Liu An'er's army was blocked from entering eastern Shaanxi in the north, retreated to Shang County, and sent Liu Miaozhen, a woman in a red jacket, to seize Junzhou along the Danshui, and then conquered Nanyang.

Although Liu An'er, Gong Yuxi, Luo Xiancheng and other forces of the exile army suffered several setbacks, their momentum remained unabated, and they moved from Huaishang to Hubei, eastern Sichuan, and Western Qin.

Among them, Liu An'er has the most elite soldiers, in addition to Liu Miaozhen and Yang Quan, Wu Shiyi, Sun Gongzi, and Ma Lantou are all rebel generals under his command who can fight well.

Although Chen Hansan led the anti-theft camp to defect to Liu An'er, it was actually an independent department, and only maintained four or five thousand troops for a long time, but it was the most elite, and there were many war horses in the army, and they came and went like the wind. After Chen Hansan's rebellion, he fought more than a dozen battles from the Liumin Army, and every battle was defeated, which terrified the officers and soldiers in Huaishang, Hanzhong, Nanyang, and northern Henan, as well as local soldiers.

After instigating the rebellion of 300,000 people who repaired the embankment of the Yellow River, Chen Hansan regarded himself as the left protector of the heavenly jacket, and only then did he officially recruit Jianyong in Liaocheng, Luxi, and expanded his headquarters to more than 20,000 people.

Yue Lengqiu led the Changhuai army north to suppress the rebellion, and first had to face the elite of the rebels such as Chen Hansan, Liu Miaozhen, and Yang Quan who were in central Henan.

Although Lin Tie and Yue Lengqiu were in a-for-tat confrontation, just as Yue Lengqiu did not want the Jiangdong Left Army to be defeated in Chongzhou, Lin Tie did not want the Changhuai Army to suffer a major setback in Yuzhong, which would make the situation in the entire Central Plains rot to the end.

The war in the north is also surging, at the end of the month, there is a letter to take the sea route, informing the battle situation on the northwest line of Yanshan, the eastern captives broke through the border wall of the north of Datong in late October, and poured into the north of Jin, and the surrounding city fortresses of Datong fell one after another, but Chen Zhihu led the elite to defend Datong.

Chen Zhihu sent a messenger to break through the siege and ask Li Zhuo for help, saying that the attack of the eastern captives was very urgent, but he also said that there was no shortage of grain and grass in the city, and he could hold it for three or five months...... It's a bit of a general's demeanor.

As long as Datong is not lost, most of the Dongyu cavalry will not dare to make a detour into Jinzhong, and the situation in Yanbei can barely be maintained, and at the same time, there are voices in the imperial court, asking Li Zhuo to take the opportunity to send troops from Linyu in Jibei to attack Donghu, which can not only relieve the siege of Datong, but also take the opportunity to recapture the lost territory in western Liao.

Li Zhuo has ignored such voices and has been impeached several times.

The situation in the Central Plains is unstable, the rebels of Tianyuan may threaten Yanjing, Li Zhuo has only been training in Jibei for half a year, and the results are limited.

The eastern captives fought from the north to the south, from the poor land to the rich land, and they could grab grain on the spot to relieve the replenishment, and the recovery of the old land in western Liaoning was fought from the south to the north, and from the rich land to the poor land, and they already had the intention of feeding the war with war, and they could not raise food in the poor and remote places of western Liaoning, so they could only rely on the rear. Even if there is no Tianyuan rebel army to make a show in northern Lubei, with the current Jinhai grain route, it can only barely maintain the grain and grass supply of the armies of Gyeonggi and the northern front, and how can there be spare strength to send troops out of Jibei Linyu to seize the hometown of Liaoxi?

The so-called siege of Wei to save Zhao is just an unrealistic scholar's words, but it is very marketable in the court, and I don't know if anyone secretly instigated it.

Under such a stormy situation, Lin Jian left Jiangning on the eighth day of November and returned to Chongzhou by boat.

The dispute with the Jiangning Ministry of Industry was also inconclusive, but Ge Siyu seduced him, and nearly 100 craftsmen from the Longjiang Shipyard and Zhufang Division dragged their families to move to Chongzhou with Lin Tie to settle down. Lin Jian spent money to buy the officials of the Yonglongjiang Shipyard and the Zhufang Division, and the officials of the Jiangning Ministry of Industry were unaware of this. In the eyes of these officials, no matter how good the craftsmanship of the craftsman is, it is also a lowly citizen, where will it be put in his hands.

Descending the river at the same time with Lin Tie were the two battalions of Jianrui led by Yang Shi to Chongzhou for water warfare training, respectively from the elite cavalry brought out by Gu Wuchen from the Inspectorate and the Jianyong drawn from Yongli in Dongyang Township. After the training is successful, they will be directly incorporated into the Jiangning Water Battalion to become the main force, and at this time, the Jiangning Water Battalion has already sent Gu Wuchen to the south to support the war in eastern Zhejiang in three rounds, and accept Dong Yuan's dispatch.
