Eight years later, Lin Feng produced glass and glassware again, and he had 107 million taels of silver. Lin Feng was ordered to go to Lu Xiangsheng to support him. The three thousand cavalrymen held a spear and a hundred sabers, while the seven thousand infantrymen each held a spear. They used the three-stage shooting technique to face the enemy, making them extremely powerful.
On the 20th day of the 7th month of the 8th year of Chongzhen, Lin Feng led Qian 'an, Zhong Feng, Li Laosi, and 10,000 Eternal Army troops towards Huguang.
On the day the troops left the city, the people of the Fan manor lined the streets to send them off, cheering loudly for the troops to go out to hunt down the thieves. Unlike the impoverished farmers in the northwest, the people of Fan Village, who lived a comfortable and wealthy life, hated bandits who plundered everywhere and specialized in destruction. If they didn't kill these bandits, the good life of the Fan family would be unsafe.
Looking at the strong horses and cannons of the army, the Fan family was very confident in their own soldiers.
The road was south, and they marched thirty miles a day. They reached the south of the river in a month. It was already August 21st when they arrived at Zhangde Prefecture. Lin Feng met the envoy he had sent to Lu Xiangsheng. The emissary told Lin Feng that Lu Xiangsheng had been promoted. He was now the right deputy censor, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, and the prime minister of the military affairs of the north, south, east, west, and north. Prime Minister Lu Xiangsheng asked Li Zhi to abandon Huguang and head to Luoyang to meet up with the other troops.
The messenger also told Lin Feng that Lu Xiangsheng was very unhappy when he heard that Tianjin had only sent one guard to help.
He was shocked by Lu Xiangsheng's official title. He thought to himself that this was a big official who actually managed so many places.
The strength of the Dao Selection Vanguard Group did not care if Lu Xianggao was unhappy. He asked the messenger to go to Lu Xiangsheng again and told him that he would be ordered to go to Luo Yang. He looked forward to seeing the Prime Minister in Luo Yang.
After bidding farewell to the emissary, Lin Feng commanded the troops to march south. After walking for ten days, they met the emissary who was returning. The emissary said that there were many bandits gathering in Luoyang. The Prime Minister would go to Ruzhou, south of Luoyang, to gather all the troops.
He asked the messenger to reply to Lu Xiangsheng that he had received the order and would be ordered to go to Ruzhou.
In the next few days, the emissary shuttled back and forth, passing orders between Lin Feng and Lu Xiangsheng.
After walking for another ten days and passing through the outskirts of Luoyang, they felt a strong atmosphere of war.
It was September 12th, early winter, and the soldiers were all wearing thick winter clothes. Riding on his horse, he looked around, but he couldn't see anyone. The villages they passed by were all empty, either because they had fled or because they had been looted by bandits. The granary was empty. The broken doors and windows of the villager's house were half-open. There was nothing inside.
Seeing the dilapidated appearance of the villages, Zhong Feng said,"Fortunately, Tianjin wasn't repeatedly attacked by bandits in the south of the river.”
"The Yellow River is a natural barrier," Zheng Kaicheng shook his head and said."The bandits can't cross the Yellow River.”
"If the bandits reach Tianjin, I'll fight them to the death!" Li Laosi said with a frown.”
