"Come on, take Huang Fei Du Du down to eat and rest!"

"Yes"

The two soldiers immediately entered the room and bowed to Huang Fei:

"Governor, please!"

Huang Fei nodded, hugged his fists and bowed to Qi Jiguang:

"Thank you to the two governors for taking care of you, and the last general will take his leave!"

Qi Jiguang smiled slightly:

"The deputy governor has worked hard all the way, let's go"

Shortly after the establishment of the new Daming Water Division, Zheng Chenggong served as the Governor of the Naval Army, and there were three Deputy Governors under his command.

Chen Yonghua, Zhang Huangyan, and Huang Fei are the deputy governors of the water division.

Qi Jiguang is the governor of the five armies of the Ming Dynasty, and his official residence is a good product.

Li Cunxiao is the governor of the Zuo Capital of the Five Armies, and their positions are all above Huang Fei.

So in front of Qi Jiguang and Li Cunxiao, Huang Fei still understands the rules very well and is very humble.

After Huang Fei left, Qi Jiguang turned back to Li Cunxiao and said:

"General Li, let's go see Prince Dongbaili, this is an old fox."

Li Cunxiao laughed:

"The little fox has already killed two of them by the hunters, how can you care about an old fox!"

The two men took a group of soldiers out of the marshal's mansion, and the soldiers immediately led the horses.

They flew on their horses and went straight to the city wall, and in half a pillar of incense, the two of them climbed to the top of the city together.

The Eastern Capture Tartar camp is eight miles away from Liaoyang City, and the naked eye can only see the banner waving, and the others are not clear.

"Telescope"

Qi Jiguang stretched out his hand to pass through the binoculars, and then looked at the Eastern Kidnapping Camp.

At this time, the camp had been set up, and it covered a large area, with no end in sight.

"It seems that Dai Shan is going to fight with us, at least 30,000 horses, General Li, take a look."

Qi Jiguang said, and handed the telescope in his hand to Li Cunxiao.

Li Cunxiao took the binoculars and looked at the Eastern Capture Barracks, only to see that the Eastern Capture Barracks was full of people, and the Tartars looked very energetic, and he asked Qi Jiguang a little puzzled.

"Dudu, why did the old fox Daishan station the camp so far, they can be about three miles, that would be more threatening to us!"

Qi Jiguang smiled slightly:

"If the army can be stationed three miles below the city in the previous dynasty, then the city can be attacked at any time.

But now it's different, because we have the Red Cannons, and you didn't notice that their camps are all out of range of our artillery? ”

As soon as Qi Jiguang said this, Li Cunxiao immediately understood what was going on, it turned out that Dai Shan was worried that his military camp would be flattened by the city's artillery.

"Dudu, give the last general an arrow, and the last general will go and kill them by surprise?"

When Li Cunxiao saw the Tartar, he immediately wanted to lead his troops to rush over, Qi Jiguang smiled and shook his head:

"Let's talk about it tomorrow, you just experienced a big victory, first have a good night's rest, they shouldn't attack the city today."

Seeing Li Cunxiao nodding, Qi Jiguang immediately passed another order arrow.

"Come on, prepare more shells, the soldiers will take turns to defend the city in two shifts, and once the opponent attacks, we will meet them with shells."

"Yes"

After observing the Eastern Capture Barracks, Qi Jiguang and Li Cunxiao returned to the Shuai Mansion together.

The celebration was done in the evening, but at the moment of the great enemy, Qi Jiguang ordered that except for Huang Fei's subordinates, no other soldiers could drink alcohol, so as not to drink and make mistakes.

After the dinner began, seeing the abundant meat on the table, the sailors and soldiers were very happy.

They usually only eat one meat a day, and all of them are limited.

But tonight it's almost all mutton and horse meat, and there are several ways to eat it in unlimited quantities.

In the past, even when the Ming army was fighting, it was only barely fed, and it was impossible to eat meat every day.

At least after Wanli, it is difficult to see meat every day.

Not only are military salaries seriously in arrears, but they also have to go through layers of exploitation, and the salaries of the two or two military are only a few dozen yuan.

The quality of life is not guaranteed when you are fighting, and who is willing to work hard for you.

This is also the main reason why the Ming army is low in combat, not that they can't do it, but they don't want to work hard for you.

After the defense of the capital, there were few arrears and deductions of military salaries in the Ming army.

Of course, this kind of thing can't be eliminated in a short period of time, but at least it's hard to see on the surface.

If there is a Ming army unit with the best quality of life, it must be the army under Yue Fei and Qi Jiguang.

They all fought on the steppes, and not only had a large amount of horse meat, but also mutton looted from the eastern captives and Mengyuanna.

Of course, horse meat is all war horses that have been killed on the battlefield and war horses that cannot be healed if they are seriously injured.

There was no shortage of horses in the Eastern Cavalry, sometimes they were all one man and two horses, and it was normal for thousands of horses to die after a big battle.

It can be said that although the war is very hard, in terms of food and drink, it is indeed the best of all armies.

In the places where their army passed, the three-light policy was also implemented, and all the cattle, sheep and horses were robbed, and the men were almost killed.

In a little more than a month, these two armies snatched at least 500,000 war horses, millions of cattle and sheep, and more than 100,000 women and children.

The Ming Dynasty is now slowly recovering, and the people are now in urgent need of cattle for farming, and many mules and horses are needed for transportation.

Yue Fei and Qi Jiguang were reluctant to eat beef, leaving only some sheep for meat.

Some good horses were selected for backup, and most of the remaining cattle, sheep and horses were sent to the Guannai.

Even so, the pickled horse meat in Liaoyang City is enough to eat at least half a year, not to mention that there are so many sheep.

Seeing the delicious food, the sailor soldiers disregarded their own eating appearance, drank wine and ate meat, and the food was called a relish.

The night was very quiet, and Dai Shan did not take advantage of the night to attack the city, and everyone slept beautifully after dinner.

Early the next morning, the shouts of the eastern captives sounded outside the city.

Qi Jiguang and the generals were discussing how to kill the old fox Daishan, and suddenly a soldier came to report:

"Report to the governor, it seems that the eastern Tartars are going to attack the city."

Qi Jiguang nodded to the soldiers:

"Got it, pass on the order of the Governor of Bendu, the four gates strengthen the defense, go!"

"Yes"

As soon as the soldiers left, Li Cunxiao stood up and asked for orders:

"The Governor has come to the door, and the last general will go and kill them for a while."

Qi Jiguang smiled slightly:

"General, don't worry, they can't fight, the Great Ming Firearms are more advanced than them, and if they dare to attack the city, they will kill themselves."

"Governor, they show off their power under the city, and the last general's hands are itchy!"

"Hahaha"

The generals looked at Li Cunxiao's anxious appearance and laughed:

"General Li, wait for us to beat the Tartars with artillery fire, and leave the rest to you, your Xuanjia Iron Cavalry."

李存孝悻悻悹 said:

"Your age is really boring, and you often make Ben have no energy"

"Haha"

Li Cunxiao's words made everyone laugh again.

Qi Jiguang patted Li Cunxiao on the shoulder:

"The general is not in a hurry, let's go up to the city and have a look."

The group agreed, and followed Qi Jiguang out of the Shuai Mansion and went straight to the city.

After ascending to the top of the city, they immediately found that the eastern captives under the city were a little different from before.

The Tartars had apparently come prepared, and there was a row of shield carts and siege engines densely packed underneath the city, something that had never happened before.

Qi Jiguang raised his binoculars and looked at the city, he didn't want to ignore any detail.

I saw that the shield carts were more than five meters long, and the wood was wrapped in cowhide, and there was a quilt soaked in water on top.
