Liaodong has always been a battleground for soldiers, and Li Mi didn't dare to be careless, so this time he brought thirty-nine ghost soldier pills, along with two hundred tomb guards.

The combat effectiveness of these 200 mausoleum guards is needless to say, and Li Mi asked Xiong Tingbi to come forward, and asked Guanghaijun for all kinds of armor and blades under the pretext of performing martial arts, and armed these 200 people.

Guanghaijun wished that Li Mi would leave, he was very happy, and it could be regarded as a ruin of wealth and disaster.

Liaodong Town and Ji Town in general, is also one of the nine important towns of the Ming Dynasty, the Liaodong border wall under its jurisdiction, from Phoenix City in the east, to Shanhaiguan in the west, bordering Jizhen Town, stretching for more than 1,950 miles, is also majestic and magnificent.

The border people of Liaodong are fierce and belligerent, and the border army of Liaodong Town has always been the most powerful in the border army of the Ming Dynasty.

Liaodong Town was originally set up to resist the remnants of the Mongol forces, after years of operation, has already built a complete land and sea defense system, more than 120 guards, more than 100 forts, more than a dozen Guancheng, is a fortress in the northeast.

In addition, the other areas of Liaodong Town are bordered by the Bohai Sea, the Yellow Sea and the Yalu River in the west, south and southeast, so it has the role of land and sea defense.

Liaodong Town was first to "reject Hu" and resist the remnants of the Mongol tribes, and it has been fighting for many years, and then it has defended the Japanese at sea and restricted the Korean Peninsula, and in recent years, it has begun to have constant friction with the Jurchens.

Li Mi has already inquired about the relevant information of Liaodong Town, a few years ago, Ma Lin, the chief soldier of Liaodong, was convicted and stepped down because of impeachment, and it was Li Chengliang, the first general in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, who took over the post of chief soldier!

This Li Chengliang is also a strange person, the ancestors are said to be attached to the Ming Dynasty in North Korea, but they also call themselves Longxi Li family, migrated to North Korea in the Tang Dynasty, and now returns to the Ming Dynasty, but it is just to recognize the ancestors and return to the ancestors.

Li Chengliang's sons and brothers, all of them are fierce people, known as a Nine Tiger General in history, such as Li Rusong and others, all of whom are famous in history.

"Chengliang Zhenliao 22 years, successively played the great victory of the ten, the emperor sacrificed to the suburbs of the temple, by the courtiers, python clothes and gold ribbon years to give thick stacks. The prosperity of Bian Shuai's martial arts has not been seen in 200 years. It is determined to worship, and the teacher must be victorious, and the power is overwhelming. has been in the position of Yilong, the children are all in the ranks, and the servants are all honorable. ”

This is the evaluation of Li Chengliang in the history of the Ming Dynasty, but it is said that his military exploits are unprecedented, and the Ming Dynasty has never seen it in the past two hundred years.

You must know that the history of the Ming Dynasty was written by the Qing Dynasty, and Li Chengliang was the first person to build Liaodong Town.

With the urine nature of the Qing Dynasty, Li Chengliang should be smeared with all his might, why should he write about his exploits?

There are places worth studying and discussing here, but Li Mi is not a historian, and now is not a good time to discuss.

Li Chengliang did fight in the south and the north in his life, but like Yuan Chonghuan, Mao Wenlong and others, as the commander of the border army, his personal shortcomings were also obvious.

He defended Liaodong, fought against Mongolia, overpowered the Jianzhou Jurchens, and made great military achievements, but at the same time, he was arrogant and lascivious, arrogant and domineering, oppressed the people, befriended the powerful, and finally suffered impeachment and ended up lonely.

However, after the removal of Ma Lin, the chief soldier of Liaodong, he was reactivated, you know, he was over seventy years old at this time!

Li Mi is going to deal with such a person next, so Li Mi must understand clearly, after all, this is his Li Chengliang's land, he has dealt with the Jurchen Ministry all his life, Li Mi wants to go to the Jurchen to hunt down Zhang Jiao Zhou Yu and obtain Li Chengliang's support, which is the most critical and important link.

And Li Chengliang was named Ning Yuanbo, and Li Mi was named Wugong Bo, the two are the only two surviving counts with different surnames in the Ming Dynasty.

This is a common problem of border soldiers, Li Mi had been taught as early as when he was in Jizhen, and his experience was extremely profound, so when he came to Liaodong, he should not make such a mistake.

Li Mi didn't know where Zhang Jiao and Zhou Yu had fled, if he fled to the Jianzhou Department, Li Mi should enter from Qinghe or Kuandian, and if it was the Hulun Ministry, Li Mi should settle in Kaiyuan or Tielingwei, and if it was the Chahar Ministry, Li Mi could go to Jinzhou, Guangning or Shenyang.

But Li Mi finally chose to go to Liaoyang, the seat of Liaodong Town, first, after all, Li Chengliang was sitting here, and Li Mi had to say hello to him, and he also hoped to get Li Chengliang's support.

Liaoyang, also known as Liaodong City, is a political, economic, cultural and military command center in Northeast China, and can be said to be the heart of Northeast China.

Earlier, the Ming Dynasty implemented the tuntian system around Liaoyang, cultivated five or six thousand hectares of land, and implemented the policy of collecting rent after ten years, vigorously encouraged and promoted the development of agriculture, so that the northeast region gradually prospered.

After Li Chengliang defended Liaodong for the first time, he attacked the remnants of the Mongolian tribes, suppressed the Jianzhou Jurchens, and even opened up the territory, including Kuandian and other six places into the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and opened up the surrounding lands.

But these are all in the past, after Li Mi arrived in Liaoyang, the old marshal did not come out to greet him, let alone send someone out to contact, even if Li Mi threw the greeting post to the Shuaifu, there was no response.

Li Mi took more than 200 people this time, all of them were heavily armed and murderous, and after entering the boundary of Liaodong Town, he was acting completely as a martial arts earl, and the border army had long been vigilant.

It was also thanks to Wei Zhongxian who came to announce the oracle and brought Li Mi's identity certificate with him, otherwise Li Mi would really be unable to move an inch.

Wei Zhongxian was also thoughtful, originally wanted to reserve a month or two to let Li Mi slowly go back to Beijing, so he prepared these road guides and official documents.

Who would have thought that Li Mi didn't mean to go back, but he was also glad that at the moment, these official documents and road guides were crooked and were used in practice.

Of course, Li Mi also has his own considerations if he doesn't go back, if he returns to the mainland, how can he lead more than 200 people around?

It's a loss to be in a border town, leading more than 200 people to swagger through the market, although it is eye-catching, but it is not too much.

Because the Jurchen tribe has become more and more bold recently, and there have been incidents one after another, the generals of the border army have to lead most of the cavalry out to patrol every three days, and it is not surprising that the border people are used to seeing it.

Li Chengliang wanted to hang Li Mi aside, and Li Mi was not used to sticking his hot face to other people's cold butts, but if he wanted to run rampant in the Northeast region, and even go deep into the hinterland of the Jurchens, he couldn't get around Li Chengliang, the king of the mountains.

Zhao Sima and Zuo Di and others are dissatisfied, they are also lords, and Li Mi, the martial arts earl, is also fighting hard, and they are not favored by Zhu Yijun, and they are obtained by selling their butts, why do they make Li Chengliang look down on them so much?

As Li Mi thought earlier, such a military tycoon must have his own arrogance and arrogance, but Li Mi didn't expect him to be so rude.

"Brothers, go to the street and set a fire, have a lively time, and see if he Li Chengliang can sit still!" Zuo Di never ate such a, and immediately instructed the brothers in the black prison to do so.

Li Mi also couldn't cry or laugh, the strong dragon didn't suppress the head snake, not to mention that the reason why Liaodong has such a prosperous scene, most of the credit has to be attributed to Li Chengliang's head, he, the emperor of the soil, deserves his name, how can he let Zuo Di and others come to Hu Lai.

"You stay here first, don't make trouble around, I'll go to Shuaifu."

Li Chengliang sat in the command of the envoy Yamen, if Li Mi went by himself and put down the shelf, it would not be difficult to see him.

In fact, he didn't need any help, just to say hello to him, provide some front-line scouts or guides, escort Li Mi and others into the Jurchen Ministry, contact some fine works, and find out the whereabouts of Zhang Jiao and Zhou Yu.

As an official in the same dynasty, Li Mi and Li Rusong and Li Rumei have friendships, Li Mi pursues Zhang Jiao and Zhou Yu, which is also beneficial to Li Chengliang and harmless, his face is important, but in the face of interests, Li Chengliang will not be rejected.

Thinking like this, Li Mi also left the team, but Zhen Mi and Zhang Huangting were unwilling to stay.

They had already tasted the taste of separation from Li Mi, how could they let Li Mi disappear from their field of vision again?

Li Mi also had a general mind, and with his second daughter, he came to the Yamen of the Commander of the Metropolitan Command, but he saw that the door was surrounded by all kinds of soldiers and civilians, and it was as lively as a vegetable market.

Li Mi looked at it for a long time, and also shook his head and smiled bitterly.

These people are all here for personal gain, some are waiting for gifts, seeking military positions or promotion opportunities, there are local businessmen who want to obtain qualifications to do business, and there are also rich people from other places who want to come over to dredge up relations and buy land.

Of course, there are also many people who have been wronged, but they just kneel under the platform, shouting hoarse voices, complaining loudly, and the scribes and public servants in front of the yamen are also anxious.

Most of them are shady deeds, but in the blue sky, whether they want to buy officials or dredge joints, one or two do not shy away from it, and they are bright and bright, as if they are buying a cabbage in the vegetable market.

The military weather here is really different from that of the mainland, and it is Jizhen, which borders Liaodong Town, which is also very different.

Jizhen was built by Qi Shuai and Qi Jiguang, with strict discipline, both military and civilian, even if there are dirty deeds, but they dare not put it on the surface.

And Li Chengliang's territory, his way of doing things is the same as his own character, simple and rude, flamboyant and domineering, and there is no need for any cover-up at all.

Perhaps this is also the "fine tradition" of the eastern Liaodong region, look at the later Mao Wenlong and others, which one is not self-respecting, doing whatever he wants, seizing military merits, and seeking personal interests?

Besides, Yuan Chonghuan and others are also the same, isn't he also good at killing Mao Wenlong and making his own opinions?

It's as if this place has a kind of magic, no matter who comes here, they will release their nature, and no matter how cowardly they are, they will become bold, and no matter how cautious they are, they will become unscrupulous!

Li Mi saw this scene, and finally understood, maybe it was not Li Chengliang who was arrogant, but he was afraid that his worship post had not been delivered to Li Chengliang.

These porters were so busy that their feet didn't touch the ground, and all the worship posts were thrown aside, and Li Mi didn't use a golden thorn, just ordinary posts, where could they attract the special attention of these porters?

Thinking of this, Li Mi felt that it was not so easy to see Li Chengliang, so it was better to retreat and go to Li Rumei first.

Li Rusong is now in charge, but Li Rumei, a marksman, still stayed in Liaodong, and after fighting side by side with Li Mi, Li Mi left the Shuai Mansion and went to visit Li Rumei first.

Although Li Rumei also has to train soldiers, he has his own house in Liaodong City, he is a low-key person, and he is naturally easy to find.

Anyway, in Liaodong City, except for Li Chengliang, no one must dare to be high-profile, let alone high-profile.

Finally about to see Li Rumei, Li Mi also had some expectations, and walked towards the mansion not far ahead.
