Chapter 308: Healing
(Recommended reading: "Governor Li, since the imperial court has a custom, should this matter be decided after consultation with Xiong Jingluo and Governor Wang?"
Unlike Qin Bangping and the others who were excited, Li Rubai heard that Li Hongyu was going to distribute food to the white pole soldiers, and his brows suddenly wrinkled slightly, and then he replied quietly.
Although Li Hongyu is the governor of Liaodong, the grain policy for the local soldiers has a long history, and in Li Rubai's opinion, in order to avoid trouble, it is better to discuss with Xiong Tingbi and Wang Keshou first, and the affairs of officialdom must be cautious, so as not to leave any handles.
"General Li, the Tusi troops came to Liaodong to serve the country, and it is quite inappropriate for them to raise their own food, and the state should bear the food and salary."
Li Hongyu knew that Li Rubai had good intentions, so he said disapprerovitically, "Now that the war in Liaodong is urgent, extraordinary things should be done in extraordinary times, and this Fu will report this matter to the imperial court, suggesting that wartime materials should be uniformly allocated and distributed by the state, regardless of each other." ”
Qin Bangping and other soldiers of the white pole soldiers were overjoyed when they heard this, Li Hongyu, as the governor of Liaodong, since he said that he would give them grain and grass, he would definitely not break his word.
Li Rubai had already guessed that Li Hongyu would not listen to his advice, a smile flashed at the corner of his mouth, to be honest, he liked Li Hongyu's open-mindedness and courage very much, unlike other Ming civil officials, who looked forward and backward, timid, and waited until a matter was decided.
"The lowly Ma Xianglin has seen the governor."
Not long after, just as Li Hongyu was talking and laughing with Qin Bangping and Li Rubai, a tall young man wearing a native soldier costume was brought over by several of Li Hongyu's guards, and solemnly bowed to Li Hongyu, who was younger than him.
"Mr. Ma Qian, although there is a reason for this incident, but military law is like a mountain, you will be punished if you hit the official, can you be convinced?" Li Hongyu glanced at Ma Xianglin, then looked at him quietly and asked.
Although Li Hongyu has a good impression of the white pole soldiers, it is more important to maintain the authority of military law, so since Ma Xianglin has made a mistake, he must naturally be punished, otherwise how can he convince the public?
"If you know your mistakes, please punish the governor.
Although Ma Xianglin is young and vigorous, he is not stupid, Li Hongyu's words are reasonable and well-founded, he can't refute them, so he can only honestly admit his guilt.
"Beating the official, the crime is unforgivable, for the sake of strict military discipline, Benfu decided to punish you with thirty rods, compensate fifty taels of silver, and revoke the thousand generals and demote them to soldiers."
Li Hongyu stared at Ma Xianglin for a while, and then asked in a deep voice, "Mr. Ma Qian, are you convinced?" ”
"Humble and obedient." A wry smile flashed at the corner of Ma Xianglin's mouth, he beat the quartermaster to the thirty boards and was not wronged, so he bowed to Li Hongyu and replied loudly.
Qin Bangping and other white-pole generals showed a worried look on their faces, if the thirty boards were beaten, Ma Xianglin would be bedridden for at least half a month, and besides, what was Ma Xianglin's face after being beaten?
"Now that the war in Liaodong is urgent, it is the time to employ people, the thirty boards will be written down for the time being, and this Fu allows you to make meritorious contributions, and if you have made enough military merits within a year, you will be exempted from the thirty boards, otherwise you will be executed according to law."
Li Hongyu naturally won't really beat Ma Xianglin's board, no matter how Ma Xianglin is also the future toast master of Shizhu Toast, if he beats him, how will he face the Tusi soldiers in the future? Therefore, he then turned his speech, stared at Ma Xianglin and asked, "Are you willing?" ”
"Willing to do it." Ma Xianglin was slightly stunned when he heard this, he thought that he had decided this time, but he didn't expect Li Hongyu to find a way to maneuver, and then nodded hurriedly, as the owner of the dignified stone pillar toast, he didn't want to be punished in front of those local soldiers.
Qin Bangping and the others breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, and their hearts were full of gratitude to Li Hongyu, Li Hongyu undoubtedly helped Ma Xianglin save face by doing this.
"In that case, then you don't apologize!" Li Hongyu looked at the quartermaster standing on the side, and said to Ma Xianglin in a deep voice, if he wants to end this dispute, as the governor of Liaodong, he can't arbitrarily favor one side, he wants two bowls of water to be even, only in this way can he serve the public and get the love and support of the soldiers, so he must maintain the authority of the quartermaster, in the end, the quartermaster has not done anything wrong in this matter.
"I did something wrong in a hurry, and I hope that my lord will forgive me.
Ma Xianglin reacted immediately when he heard this, and hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to the quartermaster, and pleaded guilty.
"Mr. Ma Qian is also for his subordinates, and the official can understand, but I just hope that Mr. Ma Qian will take this as a lesson and not act so impulsively in the future." The quartermaster naturally knew that Li Hongyu gave him a step, which not only punished Ma Xianglin but also allowed him to get a compensation, so he couldn't say anything, so he nodded to Ma Xianglin and replied in a deep voice.
"Mr. Ma Qian, in order to avoid any trouble for you in the future, you will follow Ben Fu on an errand in the future." Seeing that the quartermaster accepted Ma Xianglin's apology with interest, Li Hongyu pondered for a while and then said to Ma Xianglin, wanting to take the opportunity to train him.
"Obedience." Ma Xianglin didn't expect Li Hongyu to keep him by his side, so he was stunned for a moment and then bowed back and replied, with irrepressible excitement in his heart.
He knew that Li Hongyu had won two great victories in just a few months since he entered Liaodong, forcing Nurhachi to move the capital, so he naturally wanted to stay by Li Hongyu's side and be taught.
Qin Bangping and the others were also secretly happy for Ma Xianglin in their hearts, Li Hongyu naturally had the intention of cultivating Ma Xianglin by his side, and being able to catch up with Li Hongyu, a new champion with unlimited prospects, would be of great benefit to the white pole soldiers in the future, after all, there are people in the DPRK who are easy to do.
Knowing that Li Hongyu was going to Sancha'er Fort in person to attend the prisoner exchange ceremony, Xiong Tingbi and Wang Keshou were naturally opposed, how could the dignified governor of Liaodong condescend to meet Nurhachi in the same way? Moreover, safety cannot be guaranteed, in case Nurhachi breaks his promise and sneaks up, then Li Hongyu will be in danger.
However, Li Hongyu has made up his mind, and Xiong Tingbi and Wang Keshou have no choice but to transfer troops from Liaoyang to Shenyang to enrich the military strength in Li Hongyu's hands.
Because he was about to leave Liaodong and return to the capital to return to Emperor Wanli, Li Hongyu didn't want to cause any more trouble in Liaodong, but only wanted to return to Beijing after returning to Beijing after exchanging those prisoners of war safely.
In early September, the Houjin army of Sancha'erbao raided several villages under the jurisdiction of Shenyang, abducting more than 1,000 people, and more than 100 Ming soldiers stationed there were killed in the conflict.
Li Hongyu was taken aback when he learned that it was midnight when the villages were attacked, and when the guards told him the news, he never expected that the Houjin army would carry out such a serious provocation during the prisoner exchange.
Although Li Hongyu and Nurhachi did not agree to a truce during the prisoner exchange, according to the management, both sides would truce during the prisoner exchange, so Li Hongyu had withdrawn the cavalry that harassed the Houjin, and Nurhachi did not let the Houjin army harass the territory of the Ming army again.
The two sides are like two beasts after a big battle, both of them are catching time to rest, secretly **** the wounds on their bodies, and quietly waiting for the start of the next big war.
Regarding the sudden attack of the Houjin army under the jurisdiction of Shenyang by the Houjin army of Sanchaerbao this time, Li Hongyu did not know whether Nurhachi was putting pressure on him, or whether the Houjin generals of Sanchaerbao did it without authorization.
However, it does not matter what the reason for this incident is, what matters is the result of this treatment, once this matter spreads in the border of Shenyang, it will definitely cause panic among the people, and then trigger a wave of fleeing.
At this time, Li Hongyu realized the importance of Sancha'er Fort, and mastering Sancha'er Fort was equivalent to having the leading power of attack, not the cumbersome he thought before, no wonder Xiong Tingbi wanted to build a defense line that also included Sancha'er Fort.
Li Hongyu knew very well that since Sancha'er Fort was abandoned at his suggestion, Xiong Tingbi would not be able to open his mouth even if he wanted to recapture it.
Because Xiong Tingbi's Liaodong defense line includes Sancha'er Fort, so after he leaves, Xiong Tingbi will definitely send troops to recapture Sancha'er Fort, Li Hongyu doesn't like others to clean up the mess for him, and now since he finds that abandoning Sancha'er Fort is a mistake, then he has to correct this mistake.
"Lord Governor, Mao Garrison and Zu have brought the general here." When Li Hongyu was pacing back and forth in the living room, Man Gui walked in quickly and bowed to Li Hongyu to report.
"I've seen the governor in my humble position." Man Gui was followed by two military attachés, one a middle-aged man and the other a young man, who saluted in unison when they saw Li Hongyu.
"Ben Fu called the two of you late at night because he had something important to tell him." Li Hongyu glanced at the two military attaches in front of him, and said quietly, "The Jiannu of Sancha'er Fort attacked several villages yesterday and kidnapped more than a thousand people. ”
Hearing this, Man Gui, who was standing on the side, was taken aback, and looked at Li Hongyu with a surprised expression, he thought that Li Hongyu was going to let Mao Garrison and Zu General go to attack Sancha'er Fort, but he didn't expect Li Hongyu to use the guards as well.
The captain of Li Hongyu's guard is naturally Man Gui, it stands to reason that Man Gui is just a general who can't command Mao's garrison, but he's always the captain of Li Hongyu's guard, not to mention the garrison, even the general has to obediently follow his orders, after all, he represents Li Hongyu.
As the captain of the guard, Man Gui has been conscientious in the past few months, first following Li Hongyu to the grassland to see Lin Dan Khan, and then following Li Hongyu to Yehebu, even if there is no merit, there is hard work.
Although he became Li Hongyu's guard captain, he had unlimited scenery, but because he had to stay by Li Hongyu's side to protect, Man Gui did not make any achievements despite the Battle of Tieling.
Therefore, Li Hongyu wanted to give Man Gui a chance to make meritorious contributions before leaving Liaodong, so that he could justifiably promote Man Gui's official position, and it would not be in vain for the two of them to be masters and servants.
"The governor can rest assured, his humble position will live up to the expectations of the adults and take the Sancha'er Fort!"
Mao Shoubei and Zu General Wen Yan bowed down again, and replied loudly, with a look of excitement on their faces, it was obvious that this was an excellent opportunity to make meritorious contributions, with Li Hongyu's military attainments, everything must have been arranged, just waiting for them to act according to the plan.
