Section 16 Comprehensive Preparations for War

Liaoyang General Military Office.

Liu Yunwei was looking at the book of soldiers in the room, and Xu Wanxin on the side was sitting at the table with her cheeks on her cheeks, looking at her father-in-law stupidly, and gradually became distracted.

Since they got married, the two have not stayed together as leisurely and comfortably as they do today. Liu Yunwei is busy with military affairs on weekdays, and he doesn't even go home once in a few months, but today he finally rests at home, Xu Wanxin is thinking about whether to cook a few side dishes that Liu Yunwei likes to eat at night, and the two of them will keep it warm. Thinking of this, Xu Wanxin couldn't help but blush.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Xu Wanxin put away her careful thoughts and said.

The maid Qiaoling entered the house with dark resentment, stood aside and said angrily: "Miss, uncle." The old general sent someone to call his uncle, saying that he was in a hurry, and asked him to go to the study immediately. ”

When Liu Yunwei heard this, he thought that Master Li and his entourage had been leaving for a while, guessed that the news should have been transmitted, greeted Xu Wanxin, and hurriedly left.

Xu Wanxin saw Liu Yunwei's anxious appearance, knew that something was wrong, and saw Xiaoling's unhappy face, so she asked, "Qiaoling, what's wrong with you?" Who messed with you? ”

"Miss, my uncle finally came back to live for a few days, and now I guess I will go to live with the barracks commander again."

"Huh? What do you mean by that?"

"Miss, didn't you see that the old general sent the family member to find my uncle, he was in a hurry, and he couldn't wait to rush in and pull his uncle away, something must have happened, and my uncle must be going back to the barracks."

After listening to this, Xu Wanxin thought about something thoughtfully, and said after a while: "Qiaoling, you go back to my father." Tell my dad that I'm going back to my parents' house for a while these days. ”

"Miss wants to go back to her parents' house?"

"Well, I am the young grandmother of the General Soldier's Mansion, and I am the wife of President Qian. It seems that something big is really going to happen, and I have to do something to worry about my husband. ”

Besides, Liu Yunwei followed his family all the way to the study, and when he entered the house, he saw that his grandfather Liu Ling, his father Liu Zhao, the four guerrilla generals under his grandfather, and Yuan Mingxuan, who was tired, were all there, and he knew that something was wrong, and said, "Grandfather, what's wrong." ”

Liu Ling said: "You sit down first, and listen to Mingxuan tell me about the situation in the past few days." ”

Liu Yunwei nodded and sat aside.

Yuan Mingxuan got up and said, "Old generals, generals. In the past few days, Ming Xuan and Master Li went to Hetuara together, and what they saw and heard hit Yuan very hard. ”

After speaking, Yuan Mingxuan told what he had seen and heard in the past few days in detail from beginning to end, "Old generals, generals. Everyone knows the situation in Liaodong, how long will it take for us to put Liaodong's defense in order and complete? How many people are behind the scenes? Jiannu has put the lives of the whole clan on that battle, how much can Jiannu prepare during this time? We have seriously underestimated the ambition of Jiannu before, they are not a border trouble, they want to enter the Central Plains like Liao, Jin, and Mongolia! It's going to kill my Huaxia! Therefore, it is said that we have won strategic time, but it is better to say that it is also necessary to build slaves, and it is the slave chieftains who have given us time. ”

"But this Jiannu Ding is only more than 100,000 people, and the soldiers are only tens of thousands, and they still want to enter the Central Plains? Why! Guerrilla Xu Jiusi said with some disbelief.

Yuan Mingxuan shook his head and said, "The Jurchen and Khitan were also insignificant clans in front of the Central Plains Dynasty, but what was the result? ”

When everyone heard this, they were all worried.

Liu Yunwei thought for a while and asked, "Then what did Master Li say?" ”

Yuan Mingxuan said: "Lord Li has returned to Beijing directly, and he promised to report this matter to the imperial court according to the truth, and strive for the imperial court to transfer troops to Liaodong. Don't look at this Lord Li is old and weak, this time it really raised the prestige of my Ming. ”

As he spoke, he told Li Linbin's performance all the way, and everyone was amazed.

"In that case, the possibility of the imperial court transferring troops should be greater." Liu Yunwei said with some uncertainty.

Liu Ling shook his head and said, "Even if the imperial court made up its mind to mobilize a large army to Liao after receiving Lord Li's report, it would be a year and a half later. Mobilizing food and salaries, soldiers, and conciliating disputes between various forces cannot be resolved in a short period of time. ”

After speaking, Liu Ling saw that everyone present, including Liu Yunwei, was worried, and suddenly laughed and said: "Haha, I want my Liu Ling to fight all my life, first fighting with Nanban Tusi in the southwest, killing the enemy in Burma, and then pacifying the Shaanxi-Gansu rebellion, and finally fighting with the Japanese slaves in Korea, and has never been defeated so far." Unexpectedly, in the twilight of life, Jiannu rose, and God wanted to add more achievements to the old man. Good! Good! Good! ”

Seeing Liu Ling so heroic, the haze in their hearts was suddenly swept away, and they were all in good spirits.

Liu Yunwei was also full of fighting spirit in his heart, and said: "Grandfather's words are inappropriate! Is the destruction of Jiannu just the work of my grandfather? The grandson is willing to be the pioneer and fight the Tartars in blood! ”

"Good!"

Liu Ling said: "Now Jiannu is preparing for a decisive battle with the clan, trying to swallow Liaodong in one fell swoop, and then subvert the foundation of our Han family. Joke! I am a country of great beauty, a country of gods, a great man of fire, and a descendant of gods, how can I be matched by the Yidi cheap race! It's really beyond my means. Our generation can take this opportunity to overcome all difficulties and stain the battlefield with blood! In one fell swoop, he leveled Jiannu, ploughed Liaodong, and made meritorious deeds! ”

"Swear to follow the old general! Swear to defend Liaodong to the death! ”

Seeing that everyone was generously begging for war, Liu Ling was relieved and said: "From today onwards, my Liaoyang General Military Mansion will also enter full preparations. As for Guangning, the old man will personally go tomorrow to talk to General Wang about preparing for war. ”

"In addition, the old man will write a text about the construction of slaves and inform the prefect Wang: From tomorrow, Liaoyang City will begin martial law! The old man asked the city's officials, arresters, and archers patrolling the city to closely check the people who came and went, and to check the construction slaves in the city. And strictly control strategic materials such as salt and iron, horses, grain, and medicines, so as not to let a grain or an inch of iron flow into the hands of Jiannu! ”

"Zhao'er, you are responsible for raising food and armaments. From now on, the grain merchants and iron stores in the city will be registered, and all military supplies must be sold to the general military government on a priority and at a low price, otherwise they will be punished as collaborating with the enemy! ”

"Yes." Liu Zhao thought for a while, and then said: "Father, don't you need to contact the major families in the city, let them all donate a little." ”

Liu Ling thought for a while and said: "Be cautious in this matter, after all, Jiannu has not yet called, first, the big families in the city may not necessarily believe that Jiannu will call, and it is easy to give people a handle." You can post what Jiannu did and call on the people to share their worries for the country, the key is to be voluntary. ”

"Understood."

"Yunwei, you can go back to the barracks today and take your subordinates with you."

"Yes, grandfather."

"Your elder brothers are also on standby in the military camp from today onwards, and they will strictly train their military horses."

"Order!" The four veterans answered together.

"Mingxuan."

"Old general, please command."

"You send more people to strictly investigate Jiannu, and the old man must know every move of Jiannu. In addition, you have to work hard again, and go to Jingshi to find Master Li in person. ”

Yuan Mingxuan thought for a while and said, "The old general is talking about the Sichuan Army?" ”

Liu Ling nodded and said, "Now that the strong enemy is overpowering, how can Wuchuan become an army!" ”

In the evening, Liu Yunwei returned to his room from the study.

Xu Wanxin had already prepared a table of wine and food, and when she saw Liu Yunwei coming back, she greeted him and said, "Why did my husband come back, the dishes are cold." ”

Liu Yunwei's heart was warm, but when he thought that he was going back to the barracks in a while, he was very guilty, and he stood in place without moving.

Xu Wanxin was already ice and snow smart, and she understood Liu Yunwei's appearance as soon as she saw it. There was no grievance in her heart, it was a lie, but Xu Wanxin understood that she was Mrs. Qian, and she couldn't let her husband miss military affairs, so she held back the tears in her eyes and said, "I'll go and pack some change of clothes for my husband, and my husband should hurry up and eat something." ”

Liu Yunwei took Xu Wanxin into his arms and muttered: "Madam, it won't be too long, until Jiannu is defeated, I will take you to Dongting for boating, go to Wuyue Guanshan, take you to fight wine and horses, and stay together." ”

Xu Wanxin answered in Liu Yunwei's arms, stopped talking, and wanted time to stop, so it would be good to go on like this in this life.

In the dark of night, Liu Yunwei was covered in armor and prepared to set off with two family members. Xu Wanxin and Qiaoling were sent out of the gate.

"When the husband returns to the camp, he must concentrate on military affairs, don't think of the concubine, when he is about to fight, he must move forward bravely, and the concubine will wait for the husband's triumph."

Liu Yunwei nodded, his heart was very moved, and said, "Madam, wait for me to come back." ”

Xu Wanxin smiled and nodded.

Liu Yunwei turned over and rode away.

Looking at Liu Yunwei's distant back, Xu Wanxin said: "I also have to do my own thing." ”

In the middle of the night, Liu Yunwei arrived at the barracks, and without resting, he called Lu Ying, Wu Xing, Zhao Kaishan, Wen Poyu, and Li Tianhao to the big tent of the Chinese army, and informed everyone of the situation of Jiannu that Yuan Mingxuan had inquired about, and the order announced by his grandfather during the day.

After hearing this, everyone was shocked.

"Big brother, you just give the order." Lu Ying said.

Zhao Kaishan shouted: "Originally, it was only to build slaves to disturb the border and wreak havoc in Liaodong, but I didn't expect to have such ambitions. All right! When I meet a strong enemy on the battlefield, I will show the true colors of my Ming warriors! ”

"Well said!" Wen Poyu and Li Tianhao echoed.

Wu Xing nodded, also full of fighting spirit.

Liu Yunwei saw that the brothers were not timid, and he was full of confidence in his heart, and said: "From today on, the whole battalion will be on alert, and everyone must step up training. The captives are responsible for detecting the movements of the slaves and finding bandits and thieves' dens. ”

"Yes."

"Big brother, what are you doing looking for bandits and thieves?" Zhao Kaishan asked.

"If you can't see blood when you train a soldier, then it won't be considered a success. Before the start of the war, the mountain bandits and thieves around Liaoyang were swept away, so that the officers and men in the battalion could see the blood, train the soldiers with battle, and seize the food and salary by the way. ”
