Tang Haoxin rushed to Jinhai in person despite the advanced age of seventy-two, and Tang Haoxin did not say anything, and Lin Jian could also imagine how dangerous the grain shortage in Gyeonggi was.

Tang Haoxin grabbed Lin Bin's arm, and didn't give him time to change clothes with Lin Xuwen, wash his face, and tidy up his appearance, and went directly into the lobby to discuss matters. At this time, Ma Chao came from the back of the courtyard, Lin Jian didn't expect that Ma Chao would come to Yanjing and Jinhai with Tang Haoxin at this time, and greeted him: "Long time no see, when did you come to the north, Lord Gu and everyone in Jiangning are okay?" ”

"I only arrived in the capital on the 23rd......" Ma Chao wanted to speak and stopped, obviously there were too many people here, and it was inconvenient to say something directly.

Lin Jian thought that maybe Gu Wuchen saw something strange after receiving the special order of supervising grain, so he specially sent Ma Chao to Beijing to inquire about the news, and he asked directly: "When you leave Jiangning, have you sent all the boats of the River Gang?" ”

"On the night of receiving the special order, the river gang boats were sent one after another," Ma Chao replied, "The lord and the lady were thinking about the old man, and asked the small ones to pack up and rush to the capital to greet the old man." ”

Lin Lian nodded, and said to Ma Chao: "You rest first, I will find you to learn about Jiangning later." ”

Gu Wuchen is cautious, his experience and knowledge are beyond ordinary people, and he also has his own opinions on military affairs, even if the letter is not open and he can't get first-hand information about Yannan, Gu Wuchen should be able to think that it is his right thing to destroy Cao Lu and the river before Dongyu withdraws from the pass, and he can also read a lot of information hidden behind the special purpose.

Even if he received a special order that could not be delayed, he would inevitably immediately urge the River Gang to open the boat on the road, but sending Ma Chao to the capital to inquire about the news was also Gu Wuchen's normal backhand.

Tang Haoxin saw that Lin Tie asked the situation clearly between Liao Liao's words, and sighed slightly in his heart, remembering that when he was not confused when he was too old, he could be regarded as having a little bit of the ability to know the subtleties, but he didn't know how Lin Tie was young, how did this scheming, this city government, and this sophistication come about?

Lin Mengde first secretly went to Beijing to find Tang Haoxin and said that the Yellow River burst its banks, and the spearhead naturally pointed out that there was a cat behind the special purpose of supervising grain, and he wanted Tang Haoxin to be the master. Immediately after that, Ma Chao rushed from Jiangning, and Ma Chao walked an extra day in order to bypass the floodplain, and witnessed the seriousness of the Yellow River bursting the embankment, and told Tang Hao the truth.

Without Lin Meng saying anything, Tang Haoxin could also think that Yue Lengqiu deliberately downplayed the seriousness of the Yellow River's breach of the embankment in his recital in early February. Later, Yue Lengqiu's recital sent to Beijing did not mention the Yellow River's levee breach, and there was no local proclamation to present it, so that the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household miscalculated the disaster of the Yellow River's levee breach.

What can Tang Haoxin do? What can Zhang Xie do? What excuse does the imperial court have to reprimand Yue Lengqiu, who is stationed in the north of Xingzhou Mansion by the Governor of Zheng's Southern Line Qin Wang Division? We can only try our best to make up for this mess as if nothing happened, and at least not to sink or capsize the ship for now.

"The imperial court has already transferred personnel from the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Ministry of Industry to Pingyuan Mansion to verify the disaster," Tang Haoxin's white beard jumped as he spoke, even if he said this, his face was very calm, but there was a sense of pampering and forgetting, he said, "Maybe a detailed submission will be sent to Beijing in the next two days, but Beijing can't delay time." I fought this old bone on the road, and without waiting for the Ministry of Industry to verify the disaster, I asked for a decree to go out of Beijing and come to you. At this time, the only way to solve the crisis of the food shortage in Gyeonggi is to rely on you......"

Zhang Xie and Tang Haoxin can have today's status, and they are also capable officials, Lin Xuwen can think of the three strategies of "transferring grain in Jinzhong, opening the sea, and moving the army to eat", Zhang Xie, Tang Haoxin, and the officials of the household department and the Ministry of Industry also thought of them one by one.

At present, we can only use all the laws at the same time to alleviate the danger of food shortage.

The conditions for passage are very difficult, and it is the limit to be able to transfer 350,000 stone of grain into Beijing a year, and it is far from satisfying the thirst for grain shortage in Gyeonggi.

In addition to the necessary garrisons, most of the garrisons were transferred to Jinhai, Ninghe, Changli and other coastal forts to garrison, and directly transported grain from the sea to Jinhai, Ninghe, and Changli, thus eliminating the most troublesome and complicated inland rivers and land transfer processes, which could effectively alleviate the grain shortage in Gyeonggi, but only alleviated.

The amount of grain needed to solve the grain shortage in Gyeonggi is huge, and the greatest hope can only be pinned on the "reopening of the sea".

From Hejian Fu to the north to Ninghe, almost all counties have been disabled, and the most organized system, manpower, and material resources are also the most sufficient, and it can also be said that the only one with the conditions for opening the sea is the mouth of the Jinhai vortex.

Since the victory of Jinhai, the villagers and garrisons gathered in the three villages of Vortex, Changlu and Qingqi have as many as 40,000 people, and Lin Tie has been transporting grain and grass and other materials to Jinhai Vortex by sea since the beginning of last month.

In addition, Lin Lian's reputation in Cangnan, Xiaobotouzhai, Jinhai, Yangxin Sijie, as well as the relief of refugees and villagers, made him and Lin Xuwen's ability to mobilize villagers and local forces in the Jinhai area to participate in the opening of the sea far exceeded that of other officials.

Zhang Xie and Tang Haoxin didn't know that Lin Jian and Lin Xuwen couldn't wait to start preparing for the opening of the sea in Jinhai without waiting for the imperial court's instructions.

In the eyes of Zhang Xie and Tang Haoxin, Lin Lian and Yue Lengqiu were a little unhappy in Jinan, and Yue Lengqiu obviously wanted to put them together this time.

Young people are always vigorous, maybe Lin Lian really will ignore the overall situation and force Yue Lengqiu to death, Tang Haoxin is worried about this situation in Beijing, this is probably the only chance for Lin Lian to fight big and balance Yue Lengqiu.

Out of this kind of consideration, Tang Haoxin took the trouble to come over in person, after all, there was no more suitable candidate in Beijing than him to appease Lin Bin.

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

Lin Jian only sighed slightly in his heart, at least Tang Haoxin also tried his best to maintain unity and stability at this juncture, and he had an overall view.

Lin Lian nodded and said, "Duke Tang, if you don't come, our side will not wait to ask the court for an order and will start the construction without authorization." Time waits for no one, and maybe a day of delay will lead to a big mess. My eldest brother and I came back a day late to inspect the whirlpool river...... Tang Gong and Chen came over, it was really good. ”

Lin Jian knew that Yue Lengqiu and the special purpose of supervising grain would not be mentioned again, so he put this thought down, and everything was important to alleviate the grain shortage in Gyeonggi.

Lin Tie said this, Tang Haoxin was also relieved, and said: "Then I will rest in Jinhai for a few days and then go back to Beijing, my body is really going to fall apart on the road." This time I came out of Beijing, I was in a hurry, and I only brought two edicts, one for the continuation of the text, and one for you, so you can quickly prepare the incense case to receive the order! Tang Hao is very clear in his confidence, and naturally many bright-eyed people in the court know very well in their hearts that in such a hurry, whether the matter of opening the sea can be done quickly depends entirely on whether Lin Lian is willing to take the initiative and actively cooperate.

The imperial court has no excuse to ask Lin Tie to cooperate in the matter of opening the sea and Cao, even if he makes a strict order, Lin Tie can completely shirk the responsibility, and even pat his ass and ask the class teacher to go back to Jiangning. The forces of the Eastern Captives had completely retreated to Linyu Pass before dusk on the 24th, and the battle of King Qin was over.

Since the Jiangdong Left Army became an army, except for 30,000 taels of Anjia silver and 30,000 taels of silver from the Jiangning Ministry of Industry, it has never received a single cent of silver from the imperial court, nor has it seen a single silver for the great victory in the four wars. No matter how many supplies the Jiangdong Left Army had hoarded in Jinhai, Lin Jian didn't spit out a grain of grain, and even Emperor Chongguan couldn't do anything about him.

It is okay to ask the Jiangdong Left Army to attack and fight, and even order Lin Tie to go down the river to dig silt with the soldiers of the Jiangdong Left Army, but he cannot order Lin Tie to organize and mobilize the refugees and villagers gathered in Jinhai to dig the river, build a sea pond, and build a granary -- this has nothing to do with Lin Tie's duties.

Lin Lian didn't know how much consolation prize Tang Haoxin had brought him when he came out of Beijing this time, so he was busy asking Lin Mengde to prepare an incense case to receive the order. Even if there is no consolation prize, there are some things he has to do, the so-called rise and fall of the country, the husband is responsible, Lin Jian has no loyalty to the Yuan family, but he can't bear to watch the country turmoil, countless people starve to death on the streets.

There are two edicts, one for Lin Xuwen.

Gyeonggi grain shortage is in danger, and it is rare to make a decision this time quickly, the imperial court decided to formally set up the Jinhai Du Cao Yun Division Yamen in Jinhai, Zheng Sipin, Lin Xuwen as the right capital of the imperial history and the governor of the Hejian Prefecture and the governor of the Hejian Prefecture military preparation and then the capital of the Jinhai Du Cao Yun Division, fully responsible for the opening of the sea in Jinhai.

Due to the rush of time, how to fill in the structure under the yamen of the Caoyun Division of Jinhai Capital, the Ministry of Officials did not give a statement, but Xu Lin Xuwen disposed of it from the right, and he could select officials with meritorious names or directly select officials as subordinates from the local government, and the officials would be posthumously recognized by the Ministry afterwards. The edict did not directly specify that the Cao Yun Army was set up under the Yamen of the Cao Yun Division, but it also made it clear that the remnants of the Jinzhong Army headed by Ma Yigong and Yang Yihang were temporarily controlled by Lin Xuwen and performed the duty of protecting Cao.

Although the remnants of the Jinzhong Army were given an official name to stay in Hejian Mansion, the status of the remnants of the Jinzhong Army was also reduced from the town army to the level of guards and auxiliaries.

Lin Jian knew that the remnants of the Jinzhong Army could have such a result, and it was also because Hao Zongcheng of the Inner Service Province saw that he was willing to trade with him for first-level military merits here, and there was no additional obstruction. Even if the remnants of the Jinzhong Army are reduced to the level of auxiliaries, the rations and supplies are even worse than those of the government army, but whether the remnants of the Jinzhong Army can maintain their combat strength depends on Lin Xuwen and whether the Jinhai Ducao Yun Division can squeeze out an extra sum of silver.

If you really can't do it, you can reduce the number of soldiers, the soldiers are not expensive, but the most important thing is to be fine, and it is okay to retain an elite combat force, and the others will be organized into auxiliary troops. As long as you have the name of staying in Jinhai, everything is easy to do.

When Tang Haoxin left Beijing, the DPRK and China had not yet made a decision. The crudeness of the plan shows the haste and panic of the central decision, and in a day or two, it is difficult to expect Zhang Xie, Tang Haoxin and others to think everything through.

There is also an edict to reward Lin Jian for military exploits.

The military exploits of Jinhai and Yangxin to defend the great victory have not yet been accounted for, but Tang Haoxin went out of Beijing to expect Lin Jian to actively cooperate with Kaihaicao, and he was worried that dragging the military merits would not be rewarded, which would make Lin Jian dissatisfied. Therefore, when Tang Haoxin hurriedly left Beijing, he still brought a special award for Lin Bin's personal merits, not a letter from the Ministry of War or the Ministry of Officials, but the seal personally used by Emperor Chongguan, which in itself is a rare honor.

Lin Tie led the Jiangdong Left Army north into Yannan with the four battles of the whole military merit of the first of the Zhulu Qin Wang Division, because of the military merits of Jinhai County Baron, the title level is from the five products, 300 households of food, awarded Yongye field 500 acres, food and Yongye field are drawn from Jinhai County. In addition, the scattered rank has been upgraded by three levels, from the seventh rank to the fifth rank of the scattered doctor. As a man from Jinhai County, a doctor from Chaosan, and a supervisor of Jiangdong, he commanded the Jiangdong Left Army to temporarily stationed in Jinhai and assisted Lin Xuwen in opening the sea.

The Jiangdong Left Army's first-class meritorious reward silver was allocated 50,000 taels first, and after the number was verified, the deficiency was made up; The generals of the Jiangdong Left Army will be rewarded, and they will have to wait for a while.
