Dongjiang Jun Town was originally created by Mao Wenlong.

In the second year of Tianqi, Liaodong was corrupt, and Mao Wenlong led less than 200 personal soldiers to go deep behind the Jurchens, recovered Jinzhou, and established the Dongjiang Army Town on Pi Island. Later, Mao Wenlong was killed by Yuan Chonghuan, and his generals Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming defected to the governor of Denglai, Sun Yuanhua, and later rebelled and surrendered to the Jurchens.

Then, with the assistance of Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming, the Jurchens captured Jinzhou in one fell swoop. Huang Long, the general of the Dongjiang Army Town, committed suicide. After Huang Long died, Shen Shikui took over as the general. Shen Shikui had a grudge against Shang Kexi, and Shang Kexi led his troops to rebel and surrendered to the Jurchens. Immediately, the Dongjiang Army Town suffered a change and the morale of the army was unstable. There were countless people surrendering to the Jurchens. Dongjiang Army Town had already reached the brink of collapse.

When Shuotuo led his army to attack Pidao, Shen Shikui immediately realized that Dongjiang Town might have reached its last moment. Shen Shikui, who was unwilling to wait for death, immediately asked the court for help.

Shen Shikui dared not have any confidence in the efficiency of the court. I am afraid that when the reinforcements from the court arrived, the entire Dongjiang River would be in ruins. What's more, the court "must settle the internal affairs before fighting foreign countries", so how could there be extra troops to send?

Shen Shikui thought about it, aimed at Lin Chunhong, and immediately sent his nephew Shen Zhixiang to Jingzhou for help.

Lin Chunhong knew more than anyone else about the role of Dongjiang Military Town in the overall strategy of the Ming Dynasty. With Dongjiang Town in, the Han people in Liaodong had a place to escape. When Shang Kexi urged Huang Taiji to attack Pi Island, he once said, "Since the opening of Pi Island, no less than one million Liao men and women in our country have been to travel to each island, and they all have islands there." Read the full text of the trembling wilderness.

As for the role of restraint, Mao Wenlong was still obvious, but after Mao Wenlong's death, the Dongjiang Army Town was unstable and busy with internal fighting, and the effect of restraint was almost zero. But even so, the Jurchens did not dare to take it lightly and stationed heavily in Jinzhou to monitor Dongjiang.

Although Lin Chunhong had made up his mind to rescue Dongjiang, he wanted to see what chips Shen Shikui could take out and immediately summoned Shen Zhixiang.

When Shen Zhixiang saw Lin Chunhong, he knelt down on the ground and said, "The last general Shen Shixiang had seen the governor." He burst into tears, and he couldn't speak.

"Governor Lin, please send troops to rescue more than 10,000 brothers in Dongjiang, more than 100,000 people!"

"More than ten days ago, the Jurchens sent Shuo to lead a large army to attack Pi Island, and there were even more rebel generals Shang Kexi. Geng Zhongming and Kong Youde helped each other, and the situation was unstoppable. The situation in Pi Island was tense, and the disaster was in the evening. Please ask the governor to rescue him immediately for the sake of more than 100,000 people... If it is a few days later, I am afraid that the more than 100,000 people will die in a bad life..."

"In addition, although Dongjiang Town is separated from Liaodong, since its establishment, the Liao people across the sea have not less than one million people across the sea. Think about the Jurchens, the Eight Banners of the Jurchens, the Eight Banners of the Han Army, and the Eight Banners of the Mongolians, and often plunder the population within the pass, with a total population of only more than two million. If there was no Dongjiang, the millions of people who came across the sea would have to be enslaved by the Jurchens, which was definitely not a good thing for the Ming Dynasty. More importantly, the people of Liaodong would not be willing to be enslaved by the Jurchens with this hope of Dongjiang, and they still retained their thoughts for the Ming Dynasty."

Shen Zhixiang performed with affectionate performance. Of course, Lin Chunhong knew what he was doing, just playing a tragic card. How could he be deceived by such a clumsy performance? He said expressionlessly: "Person Shen asked him to get up quickly, and this matter must be discussed for a long time."

As soon as Lin Chunhong finished speaking, Shen Zhixiang howled, "Governor, you can see the Ming Dynasty. The governor is the governor. The governor has made great achievements in combat. He captured Gao Yingxiang in one battle, then captured Ma Shouying, and then expelled Zhang Xianzhong in three battles, which made the bandits defeat the enemy. Two-thirds of the bandits in the world were destroyed by the governor. No one in the world compared to the governor..."

Shen Zhixiang used Lin Chunhong's achievements to make Lin Chunhong feel goose bumps all over his body. He couldn't help but interrupt Shen Zhixiang's words and said coldly: "How can we deserve the honor of Deputy General Chen?"

Lin Chunhong's words made Shen Zhixiang feel cold, and he thought to himself that his uncle had worked hard to think of these two tricks, but it seemed that it would not work for Lin Chunhong at all. Lin Chunhong was indeed like a rumor, and he was a master who would not show off his eagle.

Shen Zhixiang gritted his teeth and said, "Dongjiang Town is located between North Korea and Liaodong, only more than 400 miles away from Denglai. Dongzhu, fur, Korean Korean ginseng, medicinal materials, silk and porcelain from the Ming Dynasty were all re-exported by Dongjiang Town. Dongjiang is a place where wealth and goods gather. It has been the land of the Ming people since ancient times. How could the Jurchens be involved in it?"

Lin Chunhong smiled, smiling very brightly: "Dongjiang naturally cannot be interfered with by the Jurchens. However, this governor is also powerless. Jingzhou and Dongjiang are thousands of miles apart and cannot be reached without boats. To be honest, Deputy General Chen does have several warships under his command. These warships are very well-drawn. Can there be ports for warships to berth in the Dongjiang islands?"

This is simply to ask Shen Shikui to give up the island in Dongjiang Town that is most suitable for large ships to dock. However, now in Dongjiang Jun Town, the best port in the best conditions is Pi Island. Even Pi Island can only dock small sand ships. As for docking three-masted warships, it is necessary to exhaust the efforts to dredge the port for a few years, and there is no need to consider it in the short term.

Shen Zhixiang said with a bitter face: "The best port in Dongjiang Town is naturally Jinzhou, but now Dongjiang Town has lost Jinzhou... This, the governor sees..."

Lin Chunhong waved his hand to interrupt Shen Zhixiang and said decisively: "The Jinzhou will naturally be recaptured, but before it is recaptured, you need to have a foothold on the sea. Deputy General Shen thought about it, the warship set out from Shuangyu and wandered for more than ten days before he could reach Dongjiang. The sailors were all tired and the morale of the soldiers was not high. How to fight against the Jurchens? If there was a foothold and a few days of rest wouldn't it be more beneficial to the battle?"

Shen Zhixiang felt cold. Lin Chunhong seemed to be willing to get Pi Island. However, Pi Island is the foundation of Dongjiang Town. If Pi Island is gone, why should you talk about Dongjiang? He was almost crying and asked: "Pi Island is the foundation of Dongjiang Town. When the governor arrived at Pi Island, he was like Jingzhou. All the soldiers in Dongjiang bowed their heads to obey the orders. The latest chapter of the river and lake was a bit cold. It was a big warship. If you want to say, Pi Island could not dock with large warships. If you talk about excellent ports, Dengzhou, four hundred miles away, was a natural port, with strong city defenses and coastal turrets, which were most suitable for a sea-based site."

Shen Zhixiang talked about Lin Chunhong's coveting Pi Island without any hesitation, and kept attracting Lin Chunhong's interest to Jinzhou and Dengzhou, which made Lin Chunhong laugh: "Deputy General Chen is too worried! Pi Island is the foundation of the Dongjiang town. How could this governor covet Pi Island?"

Shen Zhixiang felt a little relieved and said, "There is Shimen Island on the side of Pi Island, which can be used for the governor's sailors and soldiers to rest ashore."

"Shimen Island?" Lin Chunhong shook his head and said, "No need for this. I have already chosen the place to settle down."

Shen Zhixiang was shocked. Could it be that Lin Chunhong was really persuaded to occupy Dengzhou or Jinzhou? Is this too crazy?

"I wonder where the governor chose?"

Lin Chunhong asked someone to put on the map and reached out to invite him, "Please look at Deputy General Chen."

As soon as Shen Zhixiang turned his eyes to the map, he could no longer leave it, and his mouth opened in an O-shaped shape, and he could not close it. This map was too detailed, not only the islands in Dongjiang Town were clearly drawn, but also clearly marked where there were reefs and where suitable for navigation.

Shen Zhixiang's heart kept sinking. It was obvious that Lin Chunhong's covetous target of Dongjiang was definitely not something that happened recently. He probably had been planning for several years.

Lin Chunhong didn't care what Shen Zhixiang was thinking, pointed to Jeju Island between North Korea and Japan and said, "It's here. Although it is thousands of miles away from the Dongjiang River, it is not too far. You can take a sea boat and arrive in just one day and one night."

"However, Jeju Island belongs to North Korea. If you go to the island rashly, you may be attacked by the Lee North Korea."

"Oh?" Lin Chunhong obviously did not prepare for a deep conversation, but just responded casually.

Shen Zhixiang suddenly thought, if Lin Chunhong focused his energy on Jeju Island, how could he have time to rescue Dongjiang? In this way, Lin Chunhong would not agree to rescue Dongjiang at all. Wouldn't Dongjiang be in danger?

He could no longer help but burst into tears and cried, "Governor, please send troops to rescue Dongjiang Town for the sake of the Liao people. There is the last little hope for the Liao people... Governor..."

Seeing that Shen Zhixiang was wrong, Lin Chunhong smiled and said, "Dongjiang naturally needs to rescue him, so Deputy General Chen doesn't have to worry. But in a short period of time, this governor can not send many soldiers and horses to compete with the Jurchens on land. As for warships, they can at least squeeze out a few ships. Dongjiang is far away from the mainland and has warships to protect it. It can not only cut off the retreat of the Jurchens from the Jurchens, but also prevent the Jurchens' reinforcements from the island. I wonder what does Deputy General Chen have to say?"

Shen Zhixiang had no objection, so he kowtowed and said, "The military and civilians of Dongjiang have thanked the governor for their rescue."

Lin Chunhong stepped forward to help Shen Zhixiang up and said, "Person General Chen is a place where wealth and goods gather. The business trip is quite prosperous. The governor had done timber business in his early years. When he thought of business travel, he was very enthusiastic. He wanted to build a warehouse on Pi Island for warehousing for merchants in Jingzhou. I wonder what Deputy General Chen wanted?"

Since Shen Zhixiang knew that Lin Chunhong did not want the island in Dongjiang Town, he had already put his heart in his stomach. Now that he heard that Lin Chunhong wanted to get a share of the business trip, this was also expected, so he naturally agreed.

Lin Chunhong was very happy when he saw Shen Zhixiang nodding constantly, and then said, "The father of this governor was once in Liaodong and North Korea. He knew that the Liao people were brave and determined to defend the land. The governor was thinking about recruiting a group of warriors in Dongjiang to land in the future to attack the Jurchens' retreat. Deputy General Chen would not object to this small request, right?"

"this……"

Shen Zhixiang suddenly stopped and a bitter taste appeared in his heart. Not only him, but even General Shen Shikui did not expect that what Lin Chunhong really cared about was not the few small islands in the Dongjiang River, but the more than 100,000 fierce Liao people on the island.
