False Eunuch: With Many Children, I'm as Happy as a Fish in Water

Lin Chen knew very well that even if he had the broad knowledge of modern people, he might not really be able to win over a ruthless man who would leave his name in history in this era. ̮̦͖̥͈̳̭̭̋̏͝ŝ̸̢̜̳̱͈̹͓̀̆̔͋͛͠ḩ̷̻̩͍̱̗͔̺̏̓͊̀͂̀ͅṵ̵̙̻͉̦͙̗̥̉̓̓͊̑̂̑x̸ ͍̘̳͂͊̂̊̀͊̕͘.̷̹̦̆̆c̶ ͙͈͚̽̄̈̎̒͜ó̶̧̧̝̳̠͇ ͕̺̲̹̔̈́ ́՝͝m̷̗͓̽̂̌̋̌̌

So he can only use tricks.

As a person from the future, Lin Chen knows the development context better than anyone else in this era, so he plans to follow the methods of Mao Wenlong, a famous general in the late Ming Dynasty.

That is to occupy the sea territory and harass the coastal hinterland of the Manchu and Qing Jurchens, forcing the Manchu and Qing Jurchens, who were in full swing at the time, to give up four hundred miles of coastal land.

At the same time, we regained thousands of miles of Liaohai land!

It can be seen that this policy is effective.

However.

Due to various reasons, Mao Wenlong was killed in the end and the plan failed.

Not to mention the various struggles in the late Ming Dynasty, Mao Wenlong himself had a shortcoming of character. Although this plan was effective, it actually cost a lot.

The reason is that the supplies needed by his troops alone overseas are astronomical, which has already made it difficult for the imperial court to make ends meet.

In addition, it was difficult to see any results, so Mao Wenlong was killed by Yuan Chonghuan.

Lin Chen didn't want to delve into the rights and wrongs of it, but it didn't stop him from learning from this plan.

"I plan to open the town of Leiden, train the navy, and penetrate the hinterland of Houjin by sea!"

Lin Chen was already prepared. He took out a marked map from his sleeve and presented it to Li Zhao.

Wang Chengen took the map up under Li Zhao's instruction.

Placing the map on the imperial desk, Li Zhao quickly examined it carefully.

Lin Chen waved his right hand and used pen and ink to describe the current situation on the Liaodong sea frontier, as well as the confrontation between the Manchu and Qing Dynasties and the Liaodong frontier army.

Although Li Tang still occupied key points such as Jinzhou, most of Liaodong fell into the hands of Hou Jin, and it had become closed.

If you want to conquer, you have to attack hard by land.

But along the way there are various fortresses built by the Liaodong frontier army.

The original intention was to use it to defend against the barbarians, but I didn't want it to fall into the hands of the barbarians to deal with Li Tang.

Really ridiculous.

But if you go by sea, there won’t be so much trouble.

It was even said that Lin Chen could lead thousands of light cavalry and penetrate directly into the rear of Houjin.

Although Li Zhao was not familiar with military affairs, he could still see Lin Chen's intention from this map.

Just look at this young emperor's eyes light up.

No wonder it is called Zhengqi Liangfa.

Let's not mention Zhao Kuangyin here. As long as Lin Chen can penetrate directly into the hinterland of Liaodong from the sea and attack Jiannu from both sides, he might be able to directly annihilate the Jin army!

Outside the palace.

No one knew what Lin Chen said to Li Zhao when he summoned him.

Many people feel that the Zhengqi method mentioned by Lin Chen is nothing more than a pretense of mystery.

Only Zhao Kuangyin's eyes were filled with thoughts.

He had dealt with Lin Chen and knew that this emperor's confidant with mysterious origins was not a simple person.

but.

When he learned that Li Zhao had confirmed that he would be the general of the army to conquer Hou Jin, Zhao Kuangyin completely let go of his worries.

No matter what Lin Chen's plan was, his goal was achieved anyway.

"You go and visit the generals' families who are still in Liaodong in the name of my brother." Zhao Kuangyin summoned Zhao Guangyi and ordered.

Now that something happened in Liaodong, the frontier generals were panicking.

Zhao Kuangyin's move was not only to appease people's hearts, but also to recruit these Liaodong generals in the future.

If he didn't have this title of general, he would definitely have violated a taboo by doing this.

But with Li Zhao's appointment as general, Zhao Kuangyin got his title.

Even if there is criticism from outsiders, he can handle it calmly.

"yes!"

Zhao Guangyi's face was full of excitement.

at the same time.

According to the plan, the Beijing camp was ready to leave Liaodong.

At the same time, the emperor's recruitment order came from the Ministry of War to Li and Tang.

This time, about 70,000 soldiers from various places were recruited, and together with the Jingying and Liaodong troops, they formed a 270,000-strong army to encircle and suppress Houjin with a three-pronged force.

In this way, Li Tang has the potential to sweep away the entire Jurchen community in Liaodong!

have to say.

The situation that originally caused uneasiness in Li and Tang border defenses due to the post-Jin Dynasty was suddenly stabilized.

For example, the Mongolian tribe suffered a cold disaster this year and is ready to take action.

They planned to go south to plunder Li Tang and raid the grass valley.

Who would have thought that Li Tang would react so quickly and directly counterattack with a thunderous posture.

If I head south again, maybe the army will change direction and go to the grassland first.

Furthermore, Li Tang's border troops did not move, and only the Beijing camp and local mobilizations shocked the hearts of the barbarians from all directions, and they couldn't help but sigh at the richness of the Central Plains.

at the same time.

Yangzhou, Lin Mansion.

"master!"

A Lin Mansion housekeeper excitedly welcomed the eunuch who came in with a bright yellow edict in his hand, and did not forget to call Lin Ruhai to come out to meet the edict.

These eunuchs came here because Li Zhao sent people to express their condolences to Lin Ruhai, a minister who worked hard and made great achievements.

After a while, a middle-aged man with a thin figure and pale complexion slowly walked out.

Logically speaking, Lin Ruhai was only in his thirties at this time and was in his prime.

Unexpectedly, not only is his head full of white hair, but he is also skinny and skinny, almost like a person who has run out of oil and burnt out his lamp!

This frightened the eunuch who came to announce the decree.

They knew that the civil servant in front of them was the censor of the Salt Patrol.

I even muttered on the way here that with such a good job, I would naturally make a lot of money.

But I haven't seen the wealth of Lin Mansion yet, so I saw Lin Ruhai like this first!

If His Majesty asks about it when we go back, how will they answer?

"Mr. Lin, what are you doing!?"

The leading eunuch stopped holding his posture and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

"Thanks to the thoughts of Angel, I have been feeling unwell recently."

Although Lin Ruhai is thin, her grace is still there and her speech is still polite.

"Oh, that's it."

The eunuch apologized and began to read out the imperial edict.

The imperial edict's remarks were nothing more than Li Zhao's words praising Lin Ruhai as a capable minister.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!"

As a traditional scholar, this is what Lin Ruhai likes the most.

For a moment, he was so excited that even his pale face seemed to have a trace of blood.

After sending away these eunuchs, Lin Ruhai returned to the house and closed her eyes to rest.

"master."

Lin Ruhai's confidant butler carefully came forward with the medicine bowl.

Lin Ruhai looked at the pitch-black medicinal soup in the bowl and suddenly smiled bitterly.

"Has the summons been sent to Jia Mansion?"

"It's been sent. I think the lady has received the summons and will be returning to Yangzhou soon."

When the housekeeper talked about this, he couldn't help but burst into tears.

He knew very well that if his master asked the young lady to come back this time, he would almost leave a will.

"Stay back. There is no cure for my disease." Lin Ruhai's mood was waning.

His wife Jia Min also died of this disease.

Now that he also suffers from this problem, he will most likely go down to see his late wife. I wonder if she will complain that I didn't take good care of Yu'er.

Thinking of this, Lin Ruhai became more and more depressed, so much so that her throat twitched.

Wow, a mouthful of black blood spit out.

"Master, master!!"

The housekeeper looked at Lin Ruhai who had fainted and was completely panicked. "Quickly...come quickly, call the doctor!!"
