Chapter 2401
One day in mid-March 1639, Fukuyama County finally ushered in the long-lost sunny weather, which seemed to herald the end of this bitterly cold and long winter.Many people go outdoors to enjoy the long-lost warmth of the sun shining on their bodies.
This winter is not easy for the vast majority of people, especially the many refugees who have poured into Fushan County one after another. If they hadn’t been rescued and sheltered by Haihan here, a considerable number of them might have survived. But this winter.
As for the local people, although Fushan County is not a war zone, it has also suffered the impact of the war. They had to respond to the arrangements of the Zhifu Island authorities and put down their work to participate in the construction of various temporary facilities. To help the local area to accept more refugees.
Fortunately, Haihan has implemented extremely strict control measures for refugees entering Fushan County, so there have not been too many incidents of refugees attacking local people, and the areas other than refugee camps have basically maintained normal social order.
Being able to maintain a relatively stable social order in this chaotic world is naturally due to Haihan's strong control over Fushan County.A few years ago, Haihan stationed a large-scale army in Fushan County, so it gave the outside world the impression that it was also a military-occupied area, but in fact, after Haihan occupied Jinzhou, the size of the garrison in Fushan County has been reduced. Many, but only retained military strongholds and bases in Fushan Copper Mine, Majiazhuang Market and Zhifu Island.
And such a garrison scale is obviously not enough to deal with this refugee wave, so when Chen Yixin came back from Liaodong to preside over the overall situation, he had already notified North Korea's Daedongjiang base, and transferred back a member of the Special Operations Regiment from there. Infantry Battalion to strengthen the control of the situation in Fukuyama Prefecture.
But even so, as more and more refugees entered Dengzhou, the places where the Haihan army needed to deploy their defenses also increased, and the local troops gradually became stretched, so they had to ask the Datongjiang base to send reinforcements again.
At noon, people enjoying the sunshine near Zhifu Bay noticed that there was another fleet coming from the sea. Recently, there was an endless stream of such large fleets coming to transport refugees, so not many people noticed this fleet at first. What's so special about it.It wasn't until the fleet sailed into Zhifu Bay that people realized that it was not an ordinary civilian ship, but a fleet flying the flag of the Haihan Navy.
However, judging from the appearance of the ships, there are only two expedition-class warships in this fleet with gun holes on the sides, and the other ships are heavy-duty sailing ships. very similar.
Only insiders who are familiar with Haihan Navy ships can tell that these galleons are actually military models of the Yugong class heavy-duty sailboats.Compared with the civilian version, these ships belonging to the Northern Fleet of the Navy have applied more advanced shipbuilding technology, the hull is stronger, and their seaworthiness and speed are better. All the cargo compartments on the ship are converted into manned compartments and used as troop carriers. One ship can carry personnel and weapons and equipment for a strengthened company.
In the fleet that arrived at Zhifu Port this time, nearly half of the heavy-duty sailing ships were used to transport troops.The battle flag flying on its mast indicates that the troops carried on these ships are the marines belonging to the navy.
In the establishment of the Haihan Army, the special operations group under Qian Tiandun's command was the first amphibious combat force, but this ace force belonged to the army, so the navy commander Wang Tom later formed another amphibious force under the navy. To fill this vacancy, this force is the Marine Corps that arrived at Zhifu Port at this time.
Thanks to Haihan's development strategy of putting sea power first, the navy's military budget is more abundant than that of the army, and this Marine Corps, which Wang Tom regards as the elite navy, is naturally not short of money, and its equipment is all Haihan's best. Advanced mass-produced weapons, trained by Wang Tom himself, and its combat effectiveness is on par with the special forces.After performing several difficult combat missions in the north in recent years, it has been regarded as the ace unit of the navy.
This time Chen Yixin asked for reinforcements from the Datongjiang base. Except for the first battalion that had been dispatched to Fushan County, the remaining troops of the Special Operations Regiment, led by Qian Tiandun, had rushed to Jinzhou to deploy defenses to prevent the situation in Liaodong from changing.The Marine Corps under Wang Tom happened to have no combat missions during this period, and the power transfer in North Korea had come to an end, so this team was sent to Shandong to assist Chen Yixin.Wang Tom himself had to watch the domestic situation change for the new king in North Korea, and he had no time to come to Shandong temporarily, so he also handed over the command to Chen Yixin.
The establishment of the Marine Corps currently has only one battalion, Tom Wang sent them all directly, and Chen Yixin only needs to take over the command of the battalion headquarters.However, this unit has not been stationed in Shandong for a long time, so it is not familiar with the environment in Dengzhou. Chen Yixin let this unit stay in Fushan County to replace the first battalion of the Special Operations Regiment, and let the Special Operations Regiment take charge of the outer areas of Fushan County. The security defense of the area.
The [-]st Battalion of the Special Operations Regiment currently deployed in the Dengzhou area has four companies deployed in Zhaoyuan and Laixi counties, as well as Guxian Town, the must-pass pass from Dengzhou to Fushan County, and the east side of Fushan County Qishan Qianhusuo.Guard these key points to enter Fushan County. There are three land directions in the southeast and west. So whether Dengzhou Prefecture wants to take advantage of the chaos to make some small moves, or there are other armed forces trying to sneak into Fushan County, Haihan can do it in time. react.
However, the local people are not aware of these transfers of the Haihan army. They only saw at least two batches of Haihan troops arriving in Fushan County by boat recently. Many people are secretly guessing whether Haihan intends to take advantage of the chaos in Shandong Opportunity, it is time to start occupying areas outside Fukuyama Prefecture.
Naturally, such rumors could not be concealed from the well-informed Ma family.However, although the Ma family has Chen Yixin as a son-in-law, the actions of the Haihan Army are military secrets, and even Ma Yuling dare not ask her husband about these things at will, so even Ma Dongqiang has no definite news.
Ma Dongqiang didn't really believe the rumors outside, but gradually these rumors became more and more interesting, and he couldn't help but start to mutter.
After Chen Yixin returned to Fushan County from Liaodong, he has transferred troops from other places twice.And these troops did not stay in Fushan County all the time after they arrived in Fushan County, they all set off soon.The task of maintaining law and order in the refugee camps in the county is still jointly carried out by the local garrison and the Majia militia, and the troops transferred from other places do not seem to be much involved.
It is rumored that these troops transferred from other places are likely to be sent to attack Dengzhou City, because a group of Ming soldiers who were escorted back to Fushan County and imprisoned a few days ago are said to be troops belonging to Dengzhou.
Ma Dongqiang knew that the second part of the news was indeed true, because some of these captives lived in Fushan County, and the family tried to find him through their connections, and asked him to rescue them on their behalf.However, he also knew that these Ming troops were captured by the Haihan army in Zhaoyuan County, and it was not that the Haihan army took action against Dengzhou City.
But within a few days, people sent by Dengzhou City to inquire about news came to Ma Dongqiang's place to find out whether the Haihan Army had any intention of attacking Dengzhou City.Obviously, many people in Dengzhou have noticed the movements of the Haihan Army and feel very disturbed by it.
Although the people who asked Ma Dongqiang for information were not from the government, he also knew that if he said something, it would probably spread to the government soon, so he insisted that he didn't know, so as not to say something wrong that would affect Chen Yixin's life. deploy.
Recently, the Haihan Army has once again increased its troops in Fushan County. It is said that the troops transferred are also not small, and they are the descendants of Wang Tom, the commander of the Haihan Navy.Of course Ma Dongqiang knew what kind of character Wang Tom was. In Daming, he was the general who commanded the national navy, and his direct troops were naturally first-class elite.Moreover, it only took more than a day for this army to rest for a short period of time after arriving in the local area, and then it was sent to perform tasks outside the county. In Ma Dongqiang's view, this also looked like a sign of war.
However, Ma Dongqiang can be sure of one thing. Haihan should not start a war against Dengzhou while accepting refugees. Doing so will definitely hinder Haihan's plan to absorb and transfer refugees.Even if they really want to attack Dengzhou City, it should be arranged when the refugee transfer is completed.
But Ma Dongqiang didn't want to wait until that time to confirm these speculations. The Ma family has a lot of properties inside and outside Dengzhou City. If arrangements are not made as soon as possible, once the war starts, not only money will be lost, but the Ma family members may also be involved. .Now that Chen Yixin is the most reliable source of news, he still hopes to implement the situation as soon as possible, so as not to be too late to deal with it.
Ma Dongqiang knew that Chen Yixin usually wouldn't talk about official business when he returned home, so if he wanted to ask him about military news at his dinner table, it would inevitably make his son-in-law unhappy.So he also consciously visited Chen Yixin's office to inquire about relevant information in a business-to-business manner.
When Chen Yixin heard Zeng Xiaowen's report that his father-in-law was visiting, he was a little surprised at the moment, but arranged for Zeng Xiaowen to bring him in immediately.
"Is there something urgent for father-in-law to see me?" After Chen Yixin retreated from his subordinates, he stood up and made a cup of hot tea for Ma Dongqiang, and then asked him why he came.
Ma Dongqiang took the teacup and slowly put it on the table, and replied in a deep voice: "My son-in-law, I want to ask you something, but I don't know whether to ask it or not."
Seeing Ma Dongqiang's attitude, Chen Yixin already guessed a bit: "What my father-in-law wants to inquire about is related to the Haihan Army?"
If it's a family matter or a business matter, then Ma Dongqiang doesn't have to come here to talk about it.If it is related to refugees, Ma Dongqiang also knows to go to Liu Shang to solve it.Since it made Ma Dongqiang a little hesitant and insisted on coming here to talk about it, then probably there was only news related to the Haihan Army.
Ma Dongqiang nodded and said, "Exactly."
Chen Yixin said sternly: "Father-in-law, many things about the Haihan Army are military secrets, and you can't inquire about them casually. I've said this many times before. You haven't forgotten it, have you?"
Ma Dongqiang sighed: "I have no intention of inquiring about the secrets of the Haihan army, but now there are rumors that the Haihan army will attack Dengzhou City next, and then annex the entire Dengzhou. If the son-in-law really has such a plan, it will be earlier Let me know, so that the Ma family's property and people will not be involved in the war, which will cause unnecessary losses."
Chen Yixin couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it. He has too many things to ask himself these days, and he is so busy that he has no time to care about the rumors from the outside world, but he doesn't even know that there will be such rumors from the outside world.However, there is no need for Ma Dongqiang to explain why this kind of rumor came about. After a little thought, he thought of the reason.
"Father-in-law, I transferred troops from overseas to Fushan County not to take action against Dengzhou City, but to ensure local stability while accepting refugees." Chen Yixin patiently explained: "If Dengzhou City If it is not good for Fushan County, then I will take decisive action to stop them. But to attack Dengzhou City, I can tell you very frankly that there is no such battle plan at present.”
"Really? That's good, that's good." Ma Dongqiang actually felt that there was no need for Haihan to go to war with Dengzhou City, as long as he could get reassurance from Chen Yixin, then he didn't have to worry about it.
Chen Yixin didn't expect Ma Dongqiang's attitude to change so quickly, he believed it just a few words, and immediately asked: "Could it be that someone from Dengzhou City also asked you for information?"
Ma Dongqiang unabashedly admitted Chen Yixin's conjecture: "A lot of people have asked me these days, but I didn't say anything, and they all made excuses. I know what I can say and what I can't say. .Come here today, just want to hear from you, and I won’t mention it to outsiders.”
Chen Yixin smiled and said, "Father-in-law is mature and prudent, and son-in-law admires him very much."
Ma Dongqiang waved his hand and said, "You don't need to say flattery, you just get busy first!"
Ma Dongqiang was about to get up to leave, but Chen Yixin took the initiative to change the subject and said: "A few days ago, I called the businessmen and dignitaries who came to Fushan County to seek refuge to establish the Shanhai Association. I plan to let my father-in-law be the president and manage the operation of the Shanhai Association. Do you know if your father-in-law has any ideas?"
Ma Dongqiang hesitated and said, "You planned the Mountain and Sea Society, so it's better for you to do it yourself for the president?"
Chen Yixin shook his head and said, "Father-in-law doesn't need to refuse. When I planned the Shanhaihui, I was planning to ask you to come forward to manage this chamber of commerce organization. After all, you are a Ming person, and it is easier to gain the recognition and trust of these members. If I were to be the president , then it is estimated that many people will have a gap in their hearts, which will not be conducive to future operations."
When Ma Dongqiang thought about it, it was indeed the truth. If the Chamber of Commerce was headed by Haihan people, it might be suppressed by the government in the future.And if he came forward by himself, then at least in name it would be Daming's chamber of commerce, and it would definitely be much more convenient to engage in trading activities.
Then I heard Chen Yixin continue to say: "Instead of occupying Dengzhou by military means, it is better to slowly control the lifelines of Dengzhou through trade activities. What we did in Fushan County, we can use the Shanhaihui as a cover in the future to carry out activities." The scope has been extended to the whole of Terengganu."
