Jia Sidao was the third son of Jia She who served as the commander of Huaidong. He also had two older brothers and one older sister. The eldest brother was named Jia Guandao. He was a fourth-rank lower-level doctor and had already died in his grave and was a ghost of the Song Dynasty. His sister was named Jia Rong, and the big beauty was the mother of the little beauty Zhao Liner. He had already passed away. The second brother was named Jia Side and asked Jia Sidao's blessing to be a minister of the Ministry of Justice. He was also a fifth-rank doctor. Although Jia Sidao was the powerful Grand Tutor Pingzhang and a treacherous minister, he was just the only one to support his brother and son.

As Jia Sidao's second brother, Jia Side has now sent a delegation to the governor of Taizhou and Taizhou Troupe Training. Although it has broken the rules that locals do not serve as local officials (it is not necessarily impossible to be a local official in the Song Dynasty. Some senior officials with very old qualifications will go to their hometowns to serve as prefecture officials after they are dismissed from court), but in the Song Dynasty, which is now maintained by the Troupe Training, this is not a big deal. If they don't go to the local official, where can they come from the Troupe Training Army?

Jia Side had only one task in Taizhou, which was to help his younger brother Jia Sidao recruit Tai Yong to train.

However, he did not have the obsession with the Song Dynasty of his younger brother. In his opinion, the Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty were not concerned. The reason was that his daughter was the wife of Chen Defang, the current Prince of Fu of the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, his daughter was a beautiful woman and well-educated, so she had a good relationship with Chen Defang. Although Chen Defang was in the Ming Dynasty, he did not take a concubine and favored Jia. He went to Temasek Island to be the governor of the Straits and took Jia, and the two of them had three children.

With this relationship, Jia Side was not worried that the Ming Dynasty would be detrimental to him. At worst, he took his family and property to Temasek Island to join his daughter and son-in-law.

So these days, he was also stumbled in Taizhou. The Tuan Yongs he recruited also picked elite soldiers from them and sent them to Lin'an to his younger brother. He did not leave many elite soldiers in Taizhou City. In fact, he could not leave many elite soldiers, because in addition to Tiantai County, the hometown of Jia, there were also Xianju County, which was inland like Tiantai County. Ninghai County, near Sanmenwan and Huangyan County, near Taizhou Bay, were unwilling to send Tuanlian to Linhai County, where the prefecture was located. The famous families of Linhai County were reluctant to send troops to Lin'an.

These regiments and military training were all paid by wealthy families in various counties. They also called on the children of the clan to act as backbone to pull them up. First of all, of course, they protect the family and then defend the country. Moreover, Lin'an is now Jia Sidao's territory. The two famous families of Ninghai and Huangyan, Ninghai Ye and Huangyan Du, are separated from the current right prime minister Ye Mengding and the late Prime Minister Du Fan's clan. The family is not under the Jia family, and Jia Side cannot command them at all.

However, Jia Side doesn't care. In his opinion, Taizhou is remote and not much oil. It is definitely not the target Chen Dexing wants to occupy first, so there is nothing to worry about.

...

Last night, Jia Side and Ye Meng'an (Ye Mengding's cousin. Ye Mengding's original surname was Chen, and he adopted his uncle from his mother's family and changed his surname to Ye), Du Shen, who came to Huangyan, drank until dawn, and was ready to go to bed. It was already late autumn, and the elderly Jia Side felt a little chill. The concubines around him looked a little bit, and quickly asked his servants to add a mattress to Jia Side's couch. He also served him to drink some soup made by Korean ginseng that Chen Defang sent. Chen Defang is a child who understands the truth. Not only loves his wife, but also is filial to his father-in-law.

Jia Side was drinking ginseng soup, thinking in his mind that he would choose a few young and beautiful girls from the clan to send them to Temasek to be his concubine for Chen Defang... If he really couldn't choose a good one, he might as well send his little daughter. The sisters share the same husband, so that Chen Defang's heart can always be tied up. With the care of Chen Defang, the future prince, his clan can be safe.

At this time, he thought of his junior brother Jia Sidao. He didn't know what medicine he took, but tried his best to protect the Song Dynasty... Is it really necessary? The Yidu Li family, the Jia family in Tiantai, the Chen family in Anfeng, and the Ming Dynasty, Li Cuixian, are all family friends.

When Li Yan was a child, he was playing and studying with him. Chen Dexing's imperial concubine was also the niece of the Jia family... A while ago, the princess asked someone to send a message, wanting Jia Sidao's daughter to go to Yanjing to accompany her, so she wanted Chen Dexing to pimp! This matter is going to be done, and the Jia family will be a relative in the Xin Dynasty in the future! What a great thing? But Jia Sidao ignored it.

This leisurely afternoon, when the concubine tidied up his bed, the old man had no idea why, but he was no longer sleepy. He stood in front of the bedroom courtyard, wearing a martened cloak, touching his long white beard and wondering what he was thinking.

The weather today seemed good. The sky was blue and cloudless. There were waves of thunder coming from the beach... Is it going to rain?

No, it was obviously a sunny day. Why did it thunder?

When Jia Side was wondering, a son and nephew of the Jia family on the rooftop suddenly rolled and crawled into the yard, and howled when he saw Jia Side.

"Chen thief, Chen thief's fleet is coming! Chen thief's soldiers are coming..."

Jia Side was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't hear the other party clearly, "What? Who called?"

"Chen Dexing! Chen Dexing's army is coming. There are dozens of sea ships coming from the sea. The sails cover the sky and the sun. They are all gun ships. They are firing now! Second Grandpa, listen, listen, listen, this rumbling is the sound of guns!"

Jia Side was still confused and just murmured: "**? What are you fighting? What is the important thing in Linhai? Why do you fight Linhai?"

...

At the same time.

The dozens of small sampans were already full of soldiers from the 12th Brigade of the Ming Army who were preparing to land. The soldiers were not wearing armor. The people at the bow held shields, and the rest were paddling.

Major General Zhang Jiu, the brigade commander, was also on one of the sampans. After the war in the Central Plains, he did not go to recognize the Zhang family of Shuntian, as if he had forgotten that he was Zhang Rou's son. The brigade he was in was transferred to Haidong shortly after the war in the Central Plains, and landed continuously along the coast of the Goryeo Peninsula. Later, it was the first troops to go south to Zhoushan. Now, it is the vanguard of invading Liangzhe!

It seems that there is still some destiny in the dark. However, Zhang Hongfan’s immediate superior is not a Mongolian, but his relative Zhang Shijie.

This purposeless shelling was probably wasting ammunition, and it was ordered by Zhang Shijie, the general of the Central Army on the New World. The purpose was to test whether the naval artillery was feasible to cover the army's landing? However, in Zhang Jiu's view, such a test was completely redundant, because the Ming army would not land as long as the coastline of Jiangnan on the enemy's fortified beaches, and the State of Song did not have strict troops to deploy. Once the sea power was lost, it would be loopholes everywhere.

"Tighten more force, stroke hard! Tighten more force, stroke hard!"

Zhang Jiuyi held the step bow in his hand, straightened his body, shouting loudly to cheer up his subordinates who were rowing. The sampan quickly broke through the smoke of gunpowder piled on the sea due to shelling, and with a bang, he leaned onto the mudflat at the mouth of Linhai River.

Before the sampan was stopped, the Ming soldiers on the top could not wait to jump off the board. Zhang Jiu was about to jump off the board and stepped on the knee-high sea water with a thud. A sailor threw his armor to him. He carried more than twenty pounds of armor, a bag of feather arrows, a large horizontal knife, a bag of dry food, a kettle, a bow, a flag, a fur blanket, a pair of boots, and some miscellaneous things. He was struggling to get ashore with barefoot barefoot.

The situation of his soldiers was similar. In order to prevent them from falling into the water and drowning, they did not pierce armor, but wrapped them with steel armor, and carried them with weapons, shields, dry food, water bags, luggage and other things. In order to prevent the combat boots from being soaked in water, these people were still barefoot, and some of them were rolling their legs, revealing their big hair legs, and they were scattered onto the water.

"If there was a team of cavalry in the Song Dynasty, it would be miserable..."

Zhang Jiu had long known the chaos of the landing site... I don’t know how many times I practiced on the Goryeo Peninsula, but I didn’t have any orderly practices!

It seems that logging in can only surprise you.

“Woo woo…”

The warning bugle suddenly rang. Zhang Jiu had just stepped on the mud flat on the mud flats and before he could breathe, he became nervous.

"Full team! Full team!"

He quickly threw his luggage and armor on the mud, and desperately waved the red flag in his hand. This was also the experience gained after many exercises. The landing troops were often spread wider, and the messengers often didn't have time to get in place, so they could only let the officers pass the orders with the eye-catching flag.

The simple flag language was recognized by the officers and soldiers of the 12th Brigade. Seeing Zhang Jiu waving the flag, those who had not arrived ashore were rowing desperately, and those who had already arrived ashore all formed teams, and the landing site was often chaotic, and it was normal to not find superiors and subordinates. Therefore, it was stipulated that the battlefield commander with the highest military rank was the core (the colors of the flags were different, the brigade commander was the red flag, the regiment commander was the black flag, the battalion commander was the green flag, the company commander was the blue flag, and the platoon commander had no flag, because a sampan was required to carry a row of people), and quickly formed a team.

Of course, because a sampan is a row of people, the so-called temporary team means dozens of platoons quickly forming more than a dozen temporary companies, six temporary battalions, and two temporary regiments.

The 12th Brigade that landed was of course an elite force. Even if it encountered an enemy on the mudflat (it was later proved that it was the group of people watching the fun, and they were all called bombardment). It was not very panicked. In less than a stick of incense, it formed a shrinking version of the brigade-level phalanx (one less regiment).
