    Chapter 893: That Island Fang Jie unfolded the map and looked at the places marked on it: "Daye City has been captured, the defenders of Yuguling fled without a fight, and Yaning City behind Liulandu has also been captured.  Take it" Fang Jie stretched his body: "The resistance is weaker than expected." Wu Yidao smiled: "Subei Road has been plowed by Yang Jian's armored army, and most of these soldiers and horses are still there.  They were private soldiers recruited by various families when the banditry in North Jiangsu was serious a while ago. After Yang Jian conquered North Jiangsu, the former rebels ran away whenever they could.  Rampant. Yang Jian's thoughts were all on the rebels, and his troops were really limited, so he didn't suppress the rebels at all. " "The people of the Sun family, the Zhao family, and the Liu family are basically the rebels who were recruited at that time.  , or they are private soldiers who have limited combat power." Fang Jie nodded: "Leave it to the people below to fight. Now that there are more and more teams in hand, the stalls are getting bigger and bigger. I can't do it every time.  The most scarce thing is to take command of the whole battle. " "Can Liu Enjing and Xu Xiaogong be used?" Wu Yiyi asked.  "Let them train for the time being." Fang Jie shook his head: "It will be useful to them later." "Is there any new news from Liuzhou City?" Fang Jie asked Chen Xiaoru, who was standing on one side, quickly answered  : "The day before yesterday was a routine day to send back news. There is no more news yet. The troops of the imperial court outside Liuzhou City and the troops of Shengtu fought more than ten battles. Basically, Shengtu's team never won. But there is something behind it.  With Jin Shixiong's restraint, Liuzhou City is relatively stable for the time being. From a psychological point of view, Jin Shiduo definitely doesn't want to hang himself on a rope with Shengtu, but he can't help himself now in Liuzhou. " "Where is Chang'an?  " Fang Jie asked again.  "Gao Kaitai and Wang Yiqu's troops have been attacking Chang'an City for a year." Chen Xiaoru searched for the information in his memory and said: "Those two people have thought of all the ways. Unfortunately, Chang'an City is too tall and strong, and the stone trebuchet is  The huge boulder hit it was a white seal, and there were no cracks in the city wall. In order to lure the enemy out of the city, one of Yang Jian's men named Wei Mu was guarding Chang'an. He must have received Yang Jian's instructions and refused to leave the city. Now Gao Kaitai and Wang Yiqu's troops  Food and grass are in short supply, and a large number of troops have been sent to plunder Gyeonggi Province, and the people are in dire straits." Fang Jie said, "I have no contact with these people for the time being Is there any news from Muping City?" "Yes," Chen Xiaoru said: "  Zuo Mingchan has cut off Shengtu's supply of firearms in Muping, and it is said that no rebels from the Ross Kingdom have come over. Perhaps, the resistance forces in the Ross Kingdom have been wiped out, and Zuo Mingchan's people are staying in Muping City to monitor.  Due to the actions of the foreigners, there seem to be fewer and fewer foreigners in Muping City recently" "The people from the Opulu Empire are going to mobilize troops." Fang Jie sighed: "What's going on in the Mu Mansion over in Eastern Xinjiang?  News? " "The people of the Mu Mansion attacked Shanhaiguan and killed all the Shanhaiguan guards. But because Mu Guangling ordered to temporarily abandon the entry into the Central Plains, all the troops of the Mu Mansion were deployed along the coast, especially the Dongchu line.  "The Emperor of Dong Chu, Chu Juzheng, escaped from Dong Chu and was probably hiding in Mu Mansion." Fang Jie nodded: "With Chu Juzheng giving guidance to Mu Guangling, Mu Guangling should also be prepared to deal with foreign firearms.  Yes. We still need to keep a closer eye. Once there is a war in Dongjiang, I want to know the news." "Here" Chen Xiaoru responded: "Send more people to watch over there." "Sanjinhou"  Fang Jie looked at Wu Yiyi. Wu Yiyi knew what Fang Jie meant and said quickly: "The power of Huotongtianxia in Eastern Xinjiang has stopped business matters and fully provides support to Mu Mansion. Lord, don't worry, what's the difference between internal strife and foreign affairs?"  The subordinates can clearly distinguish the important ones." Fang Jie smiled: "There is nothing else to do for now. What we need to pay close attention to now is the actions of the foreigners in Eastern Xinjiang and the victory of Liuzhou City.  The third reason for Tu's actions is to be free." Fang Jie's tone suddenly changed: "This person coming to Yang Jian is definitely not a good thing for the Central Plains if all the practitioners from the Buddhist sect fled from Meng Yuan.  Joining Yang Jian's team will be difficult when facing each other head-on. Moreover, the Buddha Sect is best at deceiving people Once they take root in Sui Dynasty, they will soon sprout and grow. "Wu Yiyi nodded: "Especially now.  In such troubled times, the people no longer have the awe and faith they once had in the Sui Dynasty, and it is easy for them to place their trust in other things. In these troubled times, the people are unable to face their own worries and fears, and it is easier for them to become distrustful of others.?The appearance of charity is convincing, and the change from being convinced to becoming a believer is extremely fast.  Huang Yangdao is an example This is still within the control range, and when the people live and work in peace and contentment, so many people are beguiled to believe in Buddhism.  In a war-torn land, one can imagine how fast Buddhism will develop.  " Fang Jie suddenly thought of something: "I'm afraid people from the Buddhist sect have entered the Central Plains in large numbers, and they are inseparable from the golden family of Meng Yuan.  " Wu Yiyi was stunned for a moment, and then quickly understood what Fang Jie meant: "Is Brother Meng behind the scenes?  " Chen Xiaoru is not stupid. He thought about it carefully and understood: "Meng Yuan is destroying Buddhism, but the foundation of Buddhism on the grasslands of the Western Regions is so strong that it can be destroyed so easily.  And if it continues to be destroyed like this, it will last forever Meng Yuan has just experienced a war that has spread across the country What Brother Meng wants most is to recover as soon as possible and recuperate.  Naturally, he did not want his neighbor Sui to recover before him, so he encouraged Buddhist disciples to enter the Central Plains in large numbers.  " Wu Yiyi nodded: "Either Meng Ge consciously drove the Buddhist disciples to the Central Plains, or Meng Ge negotiated with the Buddha Sect and asked the Buddha Sect to go to the Central Plains.  If the Buddhist sect wants to rise again, it needs a new soil. The Great Sui Dynasty is in chaos. For the Buddhist sect, this is a fertile soil!  This is the scene that both the Buddha Sect and the Golden Family want to see, and they hit it off immediately!  " Fang Jie shook his head and said with emotion: "The Sui Dynasty, which once attracted worship from all over the world, is no longer intimidated at all.  If the Meng Yuan people recover faster than the Central Plains, then Meng Ge will never give up the idea of ??marching eastward.  " Wu Daodao sighed: "Foreigners are heading west, Mongolian people are heading east If this situation comes to be, it will be the biggest disaster in history for the people of the Central Plains.  "     Eastern Xinjiang Mu Mansion Staring at the sea map spread out on the table, Mu Guangling's expression was particularly heavy: "I thought that the foreigners would rest for a while and sort out the Chu country before taking any action, but no  The thought came so quickly.  I just got the news today that my men have discovered foreign ships at sea, and they should be here to explore the way.  " Chu Juzheng, the Emperor of Eastern Chu who was sitting next to him, changed his expression and immediately reminded: "Foreign warships are extremely strong and equipped with extremely powerful firearms. In the event of a naval battle, our ships will not be able to use them at all.  There is an advantage at all No matter what, the navy of our Chu Kingdom is considered strong, at least not weaker than the navy of the Great Sui Dynasty.  However, in a sea battle with foreign warships, our Dachu Navy was defeated in one battle without even any room to fight back.  " Mu Guangling's face was solemn, and his finger slid across the map: "What if we give up the naval battle?  " Standing next to him, Mu Xianjun has not yet recovered from the previous defeat, but he also knows that now is a matter of safety for Eastern Xinjiang and the life and death of Mu Mansion. He stared at the map and said: "Penglai Island  We can't go undefended here!  Penglai Island is the closest to the coast. If I were a foreign general, I would definitely take this small island first as a transit place.  Supplies can be hoarded on the island and military camps can be built. The foreigners should know that the Sui Dynasty is difficult to fight, so they must be prepared not to land in a battle.  " Mu Guangling glanced at his son with some relief. After losing his arm, Mu Xianjun was depressed for a long time, and recently he gradually regained some vitality. " That's right.  " Mu Guangling nodded: "Penglai Island is a dispensable place on weekdays, but once a war breaks out, this place becomes crucial.  " He raised his head and glanced at the generals standing in the room: "Which of you is willing to lead troops to defend Penglai Island?  " The people below looked at each other, and a general standing at the front stepped forward and said: "Sir, I am willing to lead everyone in this department to guard Penglai Island!  "In addition to him, others also expressed their opinions. Mu Guangling seemed to be quite satisfied with the reaction of his subordinates. He looked at the first person who stood up and said: "Yan Li, you have been with me for many years. I know your abilities.  , I feel relieved to leave Penglai Island to you.  You must remember that this island is related to the overall situation of Eastern Xinjiang, so you must not slack off.  "    "Father!  " Mu Xianjun looked at Mu Guangling: "No one is more familiar with Penglai Island than me. I am willing to go to Penglai Island with General Yan Li.  " "Your injury is not healed yet!  "Mu Guangling said with a serious face. "Mu Mansion has been guarding Eastern Xinjiang for so many years, and my father has been doing all the hard work.  In the past, the children were too young to worry about their father. Now that I have grown up, even though I have a broken arm, I am still able to fight.  Father, I don¡¯t want to lead troops to fight in the future, and the soldiers below will all ask each other, what battle has this person fought in?  What contribution have you made to Dongjiang?  " Mu Guangling's face changed. After being silent for a while, he nodded: "Since youEven if you insist on doing so, I can't stop you.  The life and death of Eastern Xinjiang rests on my Mu Mansion. In the future, you will be the master of Mu Mansion, and it¡¯s time for you to take some more risks!  " "Yan Li" Mu Guangling looked at the proud general under his command: "I will leave Xianjun to you.  Yan Li clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, Lord!"  Even if Yan Li dies in battle, he will protect the young master thoroughly!  " Mu Guangling frowned slightly, vaguely feeling that these words were a bit ominous, but he did not say anything. He stood up and glanced at everyone: "When I led the troops on an expedition, I would tell you that I was fighting for the Sui Dynasty.  But today, what I want to tell you is that this battle is not for the Sui Dynasty, but for you!  For your family!  Dongjiang is your home and no one is allowed to trample on it!  " "I won't give up even if I die!"  "The generals clasped their fists and looked solemn.
