481、The northwest is in chaos
After seeing off the two assistants, Leng Sa got up and went to the study next door. It happened that she had a lot of things to ask Mr. Fu.
In the study, Mr. Fu was sitting on the sofa and lowered his head to stare at the baby in his arms. Leng Sa walked over and couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene.
The little stone was held softly by Fu Fengcheng. The little baby, who was more than three months old, opened his eyes wide and looked at the father's mouth in front of him, making a babbling sound as if he was talking to Mr. Fu. However, even though Mr. Fu was a genius, his knowledge did not include baby speech, so he could only watch the little baby talking to himself and enjoy himself.
"What are you doing?" Leng Sa walked over and asked with a smile.
Fu Fengcheng said, "Yun Qi has grown up a little more, what is he talking about?"
Leng Sa nodded with a smile and said seriously, "I guess I'm asking my father why he hasn't come back for so long? A child who was just born is growing very fast. You haven't seen him for several days. Can you not grow up? Why are you free today?"
The First Army has been practicing recently, and Fu Fengcheng is back every day later than before. Basically, when Fu Fengcheng comes back, Xiao Shitou has been taken to bed by the wet nurse. It turns out that Fu Fengcheng has not seen Xiao Shitou for five or six days, so it is no wonder that this little guy has been babbling at his father. Maybe he hasn't seen him for several days and misses him very much.
Fu Fengcheng said: "The drill is over. The old man comes to me if he has something to do. I will come back early today."
Speaking of this, Fu Fengcheng felt a little guilty. When Fu was older and younger, he was not unfaithful about the behavior of Governor Fu's busyness and disregarding his family and children. But he would not know when he reached this point that sometimes it is not that you can't just stay busy if you don't want to.
Hundreds of thousands of people and even the entire six southern provinces are piled up there, and no matter which one is, it is impossible to slack off. Since you have chosen to have such power, you must pay something.
"Thank you for your hard work, Madam." When he first entered the door, he saw the wife holding the child with one hand and having to discuss matters with someone. Fu Fengcheng couldn't help but feel a little thrust in his heart, "Is there not enough people around him? Add more..."
Leng Sa interrupted him with a smile, "No, it's enough. There are still a group of newcomers who can get started soon. As for Xiao Shitou..." He smiled and looked at the little guy, "Some people take care of him, but I'm not at home, so I will take him by my side to play. If there is something really wrong, I will ask the wet nurse to take care of him."
Now no one in the Fu family will take care of Xiao Shitou. If she hadn't stopped Governor Fu from taking care of Xiao Shitou, she wouldn't have known how many people in the fortress came to take care of Xiao Shitou.
Judging from the situation, I wanted to get dozens of people to serve him. I expressed my respect for the behavior of Governor Fu. Even if the Fu family really had a throne to inherit, it would be better for the children to live a normal life.
"Ahhh." Xiao Shitou saw his mother sitting next to him, and immediately waved his little hand to get to Leng Sa's side.
Leng Sa reached out to take him over, held his little hand and shook it. The little baby immediately smiled even happier.
Fu Fengcheng sat next to him and watched the mother and son interact, and his expression became more gentle.
After playing with Xiao Shitou for a while, Fu Fengcheng asked, "I heard you discuss the matter in the northwest just now?"
Leng Sa immediately remembered what he wanted to ask Fu Fengcheng before, and told Fu Fengcheng what Wei Ran said. Fu Fengcheng frowned slightly without saying anything, Leng Sa asked with some concern, "What? Is there really a problem with the side of Fengcheng?"
Fu Fengcheng said, "The old man recruited me back today to talk about this. A batch of weapons we sent to the northwest were detained in Fengcheng."
Leng Sa was a little surprised, "Is Qiancheng... the territory of the Liang family?" Someone really dared to deduct goods from the Fu family and the Song family? How many bear hearts and leopards have they eaten?
Fu Fengcheng shook his head and said, "No, Fengcheng is just a small place, just stuck at the junction of the Song family and the Liang family. The nearby area is a hundred miles of deserted tobacco trees, and it has been a place where horse bandits are rampant since ancient times. Now the person who occupys that area is called Cai Qing, who is born as a horse bandit. The environment there is harsh, and it is impossible to farm or grazing, and I have never heard of any minerals and complex terrain. The Song family and Liang family both felt that it was worthless and wanted to make it too expensive, so they ignored it."
An Xia is relatively large and officially recognized by the only seven forces, including Fu Long, Song, Liang, Sun Yuechen, and of course there are only six now. However, many large and small forces are still entrenched in various places, especially in the southwest and northwest.
Some of these people only occupy a few hills, some control a city, several villages and towns and dare to claim to be the leader. Some are simply local snakes, but only local governors follow. In fact, they also have their own arms and keep calling them to shut the door and become their own local emperor.
Such people are rare in the six southern provinces, because Fu Governor Fu and Mr. Fu both have the personalities that cannot tolerate sand in their eyes and cannot tolerate anyone being presumptuous on their territory. But even so, it has been a matter of the past few years to completely eliminate these people.
The northwest is vast and sparsely populated. The Song family may not even be able to control their own territory. They still have to spend most of their time on the border every day. Where can I spend time with a few horse bandits?
But in the past, it was already his luck that the Song family would not provoke Cai Qing. Cai Qing himself was also tactful and never dared to provoke the Song family. Now that he suddenly came out to rob the Song family of goods, is his brain broken?
Leng Sa frowned slightly, "I remember the train from Nanliu Province to the northwest passed by Fengcheng, right?"
Fu Fengcheng nodded, "But the railway is less than twenty kilometers away from Changcheng, so it is not difficult for Cai Xu to cut off the railway."
He sighed lightly and said Leng Sa, "Then we can only wait for the Song family to solve the problem."
Fu Fengcheng shook his head and said, "I'm afraid the Song family can't solve it."
Leng Sa was puzzled, "What do you say?"
Fu Fengcheng said, "I just received the news that the Song family and the Dayin people have had a lot of friction, and I'm afraid they are really going to fight. Many small countries in the west also want to join in the fun. There is also the Sun family in the southwest, which has also vaguely moved to the northwest recently."
Leng Sa took a deep breath, "Is Sun Liang trying to divide the northwest with others?"
Fu Fengcheng nodded, "It's probably what it means."
"What do you mean by the capital?" Although the northwest is the territory of the Song family, An Xia's own people are not in charge of being beaten into a dog. But if the Dayin people were involved, it would be unreasonable to not express their opinions on the capital.
Fu Fengcheng said, "Yu Xiang means that if he really fights, he will definitely support the Northwest, but it is hard to say what his attitude is against him. Yu Chengyi just took office and the Lou family is in a low position. In the end, it is possible that the cabinet can only allocate a sum of money to the Northwest."
Leng Sa looked at Fu Fengcheng and asked, "The Northwest Army has always been full of martial ethics, and Governor Song has been through the battlefield for a long time. It should be able to fight, right?"
Fu Fengcheng shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's hard to say."
"..." Even Mr. Fu couldn't say anything, but it was obvious that the situation was really not optimistic.
"Big Young Master, Young Madam, the Governor asked you two to come over." Someone outside the door said.
The two looked at each other and knew what happened to Governor Fu and asked them to take care of them. They gave Xiao Shitou to the nurse to take care of them. The two stood up and went to Governor Fu's side.
On the other side of the Fu Governor's study was a small conference room, and there were several people sitting in the conference room at this time.
In addition to Governor Fu, there were also several generals from the six southern provinces including Yao Guan and Song Bo'ang, all of whom were known to Leng Sa. Seeing the two of them coming in, everyone stood up one after another, "Big Young Master, Young Madam."
Originally, the generals only respected Mr. Fu from the future heirs of the Fu family, but since Fu Fengcheng was promoted to the deputy commander-in-chief of the Southern Six Provincial Army last year, he has become their veritable boss.
Although Mr. Fu’s current military rank is the same as that of the few present, his position is indeed one level higher than theirs.
Governor Fu looked up at the two of them and said, "Here you come, sit down and talk."
The two walked over and sat down, and then Fu Jun looked at Song Bo'ang who was sitting in the lower head, "Old Song, tell me the matter."
Song Bo'ang was not polite, nodded and said, "We just received the news. At 4 o'clock yesterday evening, the Third Army of the Song family was patrolling near Ruohe on the northwest border and suffered heavy losses. The governor of Song had ordered Young Marshal Song to lead the Second Fourth Army to the border to block the Dayin people. We received the news again at 10 o'clock this morning that the 300,000 troops under Sun Liang were led by the fierce general Li Yu under Sun Liang, and were moving rapidly to the northwest. It is expected to return to the border between the Sun and Song families tomorrow morning. There are also several small countries in the west, and several small border cities on the northwest border have been attacked or occupied."
The conference room was quiet. The Song family suppressed the countries in the west over the years and dared not offend them easily. Now, if there is a chance, these people who have been suppressed by the Song family for a long time, they will take the opportunity to tear off a few pieces of meat from the Song family?
While everyone was silent, Han Ran pushed the door and walked in with a document in his hand.
He quickly walked to Governor Fu and placed the documents on the table in front of Governor Fu. Governor Fu glanced at him and his face changed slightly.
It was a deciphered message that had just been received, with only a few numbers on the message.
After a while, General Fu raised his head and looked at everyone and said, "Qujing raided the Liang family early this morning. General Liang was captured, and Jiazhou City is now in the hands of Qujing."
Everyone couldn't help but sniffle the air conditioner, and the knock on the door of the conference room was about to speak again. This time it was Su Ze who came in. Su Ze walked in quickly and also put a message in front of Leng Sa and Fu Fengcheng.
Leng Sa took it over and read it with Fu Fengcheng. It was not surprising that this was also a telegram from Jiazhou. However, this was not sent by the Liang family, but Fu Fengcheng's private message.
Governor Liang was captured, and Liang Rao escaped and was currently with Sun Wei.
However, Jiazhou is in chaos now, Sun Wei can only temporarily lock up Jingshu and Liang Rao and hide. Fortunately, the people from Fu Fengcheng found them, otherwise they would not know what was going to happen.
Fu Fengcheng handed the telegram to Governor Fu, and after reading it, Fu handed it over to everyone to circulate it.
After a while, the Fu Governor asked in a deep voice, "Everyone, what do you think?"
A general stood up and said, "Supervisor, we have always been in the same mood as the Liang family. If the person with the surname Qu is on the Liang family, we cannot ignore it."
If it were the Song family and the others were not in a hurry, but if Qu Jing touched the Liang family, it would be no better than to directly touch the Fu family.
Who doesn’t know that the Liang family has always been close to the Fu family. It is said that it was because General Fu saved General Liang’s life when he was young. General Liang almost only followed the leader of General Fu’s horse in major events. If something happened to the Liang family, the Fu family ignored it, what do outsiders think?
What's more, once Qujing really takes over Jiazhou, it will border the six southern provinces, and the six southern provinces will never be safe at that time.
Yao Guan also nodded in agreement, "This is the reason. The general, Yao Guan asked to lead his troops to Jiazhou."
"The governor, my subordinates are willing to go!"
"I'll go too!"
The subordinates were naturally happy without fear of the war. They raised their hand and signaled everyone to sit down and talk first. When everyone calmed down, the governor Fu looked at Fu Fengcheng and asked, "Boss, what do you think?"
Fu Fengcheng stood up, glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice, "Father, I am willing to lead troops to support Jiazhou."
Governor Fu raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Leng Sa, Leng Sa immediately said, "Governor, I'll go too!"
Governor Fu shook his head and said, "No, what should you do if you two leave together Yunqi?"
"..." Then what do you think I do?
Governor Fu did not go around the corner, and looked at Leng Sa and said, "The boss of the war is good at it. Don't join in the fun. Something will happen in the northwest. If you stay, you can help me. Let's go back and prepare first. Starting today, the whole army will be well trained, and hurry up. Don't just go to the battlefield before you catch it."
Everyone responded in unison and stood up and walked out.
There were only three people left in the conference room soon. Leng Sa looked at Tujun Fu and said, "Dad, Xiao Shitou is naturally taken care of in Yongcheng. I can help you with me when I go to Jiazhou."
Governor Fu sighed and glanced at her and said, "There are no shortage of war-capable people in the south. Our family will not easily get into trouble because they have picked up a good place. However, if things in the northwest are getting bigger, I am afraid that the world will be in chaos. At this time, someone needs to stabilize their homes."
Leng Sa said in his heart, I don’t know how to manage the local area, and I don’t understand the intrigues in the officialdom. It’s useless to tell me these things.
Governor Fu glanced at Fu Fengcheng and asked, "What did I ask you to go to Jiazhou for? Do you know?"
Fu Fengcheng nodded and said, "Yes, father."
Governor Fu asked Leng Sa again, "Where are you?"
Leng Sa's mind flashed, "Dad...you want..." Seeing that she understood, Governor Fu nodded with some relief and said, "It's good that you understand. Although you handled the matter of going abroad last year and the capital city, it's not enough to really master the six southern provinces. The six southern provinces can only submit to those who have truly achieved military achievements from the battlefield. Do you understand?"
Not only Fu Fengcheng understands, but Leng Sa also understands.
Although Young Master Fu has a prominent reputation in recent years, An Xia has been in peace for almost twenty years, and he has been fighting small things and has never really fought any wars.
Those great achievements in the eyes of many young people today are nothing in the eyes of the generals who truly follow the governor Fu to conquer the world through life and death. Those people are truly crawling out of the sea of corpses and blood, and fighting out of thousands of troops.
If Fu Fengcheng wants to truly convince these people, he must achieve enough military achievements on the battlefield so that they can see that he has enough ability to command the entire six southern provinces.
Of course, Governor Fu could let Yao Guan go in the matter in Jiazhou, and no one would even have any objection to any general present.
But this is not a good thing for Mr. Fu to master the six southern provinces in the future. Generals will not like a commander who makes others crouch behind when encountering something.
Fu Fengcheng nodded seriously and said, "Don't worry, Father, I will solve the matter in Jiazhou as soon as possible."
Tujun Fu said with satisfaction, "Very good, you have never disappointed me, I believe this time, so do it. Go back and prepare first, I'm afraid I'll set off in the next two days."
"Yes." Fu Fengcheng nodded solemnly.
Chapter completed!
