"Big brother, has the governor come to Xingshi to ask for the guilt?" After the initial consternation, the national-faced general was the first to come back to his senses and nervously asked the round-faced general.

"No!" The round-faced general shook his head when he heard this, frowned and said, "If the governor wants to ask for the guilt, he doesn't have to come in person. ”

"Let's go, let's go meet the governor." As he spoke, the round-faced general stood up and led the national-faced general and others to hurry to the room.

In the room, Li Hongyu looked at the grain bags piled up in the room with a serious expression, and the rice, flour and other grains in it were already a little moldy, mixed with some impurities and insects, and they were inferior at first glance.

"Go, get the quartermaster over." Li Hongyu reached out and rummaged in the grain bag a few times, and then ordered Man Gui with an expressionless face.

Man Gui waved his hand when he heard this, and the two guards who followed behind hurried forward to find someone.

"That's all you eat?" Li Hongyu looked at a middle-aged man with a big belly and wearing a native soldier's uniform on the side and asked, this person is the head of this gang and is responsible for managing this guy.

"Back to the governor, these are much better than wheat bran." Hearing this, the middle-aged guy hurriedly bowed down and answered, speaking a mouthful of Chinese full of Sichuan flavor, and his expression looked quite nervous, after all, this was the first time he had seen a high-ranking official of Li Hongyu's level.

"Thank you for your hard work." Li Hongyu frowned when he heard this, patted the arm of the middle-aged guy and said, no wonder the quartermaster is about to be beaten, he actually sent this inferior grain that can almost be used to feed pigs as a ration to those native soldiers, which will definitely arouse the dissatisfaction of the native soldiers.

"It's not hard, it's not hard, it's what the little ones should do to protect the family and defend the country and fight the slaves." The middle-aged guy was suddenly flattered, and hurriedly bowed down to answer, but he knew that the young man in front of him was one of the three commanders of Liaodong.

"The body of the gun is white wood, right?" Li Hongyu smiled slightly when he heard this, walked out of the room, glanced at the native soldier who was curiously gathered outside the door to watch the excitement, walked over and took the spear made of white wood from the hand of a native soldier, looked at it for a while, and then asked the native soldier.

"Back to ...... Back to the governor, yes...... It's white wood. The native soldier couldn't take it off guard, and stammered in reply, full of Sichuan-flavored Chinese like the middle-aged guy just now.

Hearing this, Li Hongyu looked at the white wooden spear in his hand again, and then returned it to the native soldier, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.

Although these "white pole soldiers" fought bravely, the weapons they held were not suitable for fighting in Liaodong, and they would suffer great losses when facing the bows and arrows of the Houjin army, and become the live target of the Houjin soldiers.

This is also the reason why the elite of the three-way Ming army in the battle of Salhu was so defeated, although the troops transferred from Guannai fought bravely in their respective jurisdictions, they were not suitable for fighting in Liaodong, regardless of time, location or people, they were at a disadvantage, and they could only be put into the battlefield after they were reorganized.

The so-called "white pole soldiers" refer to the troops mainly armed with white-pole spears, also known as white-pole spears.

This white-pole spear is a weapon created by Qin Liangyu, the Sichuan stone pillar Tusi, according to the local topography, and is made of strong white wood to make a long pole, with a bladed hook on the top and a hard iron ring on the bottom.

When fighting, the hook on the white spear can be cut and pulled, and the ring can be used as a hammer weapon, and if necessary, dozens of spear hooks and rings can be connected together, which can be used as a tool to climb the wall over the mountain, and the cliff can be climbed instantly, which is very suitable for mountain combat.

Qin Liangyu's husband Ma Qiancheng is the descendant of the Fubo general Ma Yuan, because of the ancestral merit hereditary Shizhu County Tusi, Wanli died of illness in prison in the 41st year, because his son Ma Xianglin is still young, and Qin Liangyu has made a lot of military achievements, both civil and military, so he succeeded to the position of Tusi.

As far as Li Hongyu knows, Qin Liangyu is brave and intelligent, not only good at riding and archery, but also good at writing, and can be described as demure and elegant in posture.

Since the twentieth year of Wanli, Qin Liangyu married Ma Qiancheng and devoted himself to the army, and the orders were strict when he marched and governed the army, and he made great achievements, and was famous in Sichuan.

For Qin Liangyu to respond to the call of the imperial court this time and send white pole soldiers to fight in Liaodong thousands of miles away, Li Hongyu praised him in his heart.

However, he did not agree with Qin Liangyu leading the army out of the pass, the white pole soldiers are mountain combat troops, let them come to Liaodong to fight is obviously unable to exert their might, and have to endure all kinds of torture caused by environmental changes, the result can only be death in Liaodong.

Of course, Li Hongyu can only say this kind of thing in his heart, and it is impossible to tell outsiders, otherwise it will definitely hit the enthusiasm of the support troops in the Guannai, and then he will be impeached by the official for "disturbing the morale of the army."

"See the Governor?" When Li Hongyu was greeting the white-pole soldiers at the scene, the round-faced general hurriedly led the national-faced general and others to rush over, bowed down and saluted Li Hongyu.

Seeing that Li Hongyu and the white pole soldiers were talking and laughing there, not looking like they had come to Xingshi to ask for guilt, the round-faced general's hanging heart suddenly relaxed.

"Are you Qin Dusi?" Hearing this, Li Hongyu glanced at the round-faced general, and asked quietly, if he didn't guess wrong, this person was Qin Liangyu's eldest brother Qin Bangping, who was named the secretary of the capital by the imperial court because of his aid to Liaodong.

"It's a lowly position." Qin Bangping was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but he didn't expect Li Hongyu to know him, so he hurriedly bowed and replied.

"I already know about Mr. Ma Qian's affairs, this matter is the negligence of the official, and the official will give you an explanation." Li Hongyu looked at Qin Bangping and said solemnly, "The official has already asked Ma Qianzong to be released, and he will come over in a while." ”

Qin Bangping was stunned when he heard this, his face was full of disbelief, and for a while he couldn't believe what he had just heard, the dignified governor of Liaodong actually admitted his mistake in public, this is simply an incredible thing, isn't Li Hongyu afraid of losing face?

The national-faced generals and others who followed behind looked at each other, and in their impression, the officials in the yamen were all arrogant when they faced them, and they would not be as modest as Li Hongyu at all, and they also expressed their apologies to the white pole soldiers

"The governor is serious, it is Ma Qian's young and vigorous nature, I don't know the heavens and the earth are thick and cause trouble, and I hope that the governor will punish him."

Soon, Qin Bangping recovered from the shock, and hurriedly bowed to Li Hongyu and said, where did he dare to ask Li Hongyu to give him an explanation.

"This matter will be handled by the official, you don't need to worry." Li Hongyu knew that Qin Bangping was worried in his heart, so he waved his hand at him and said, what the white pole soldier encountered was not an accidental phenomenon, so he wanted to rectify this situation and try to avoid similar things from happening in the future.

Qin Bangping suddenly fell silent when he heard this, standing there a little crampedly, fine beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, he was very uneasy in his heart now, he didn't know what Li Hongyu meant by doing this, whether he was talking back.

"Governor, why are you here?" After a while, Li Rubai hurried over surrounded by a group of generals, and saluted Li Hongyu unintentionally, he was not surprised that Li Hongyu came to the barracks, but he didn't expect Li Hongyu to be with the white pole soldiers.

In the southern barracks of Shenyang, there are not only white pole soldiers, but also Ming troops defending the city, including the Chinese army of Yaque Pass brought by Li Rubai.

"General Li, look at the grain in those grain bags, is this for people to eat?" Li Hongyu pointed to Li Rubai's room and said with a serious expression.

Li Rubai suddenly felt a little strange when he heard this, and led several generals into the room, and after a while, they all came out with frowns, the grain in the grain bag was really bad, if it was left in their barracks, the soldiers would have made a fuss.

"The quartermaster of the Shenyang Logistics Division, I have seen the governor." Without waiting for Li Rubai to speak, a middle-aged military attache with a bandage on his head and his left hand hanging from his chest with a strap rushed over in a hurry, panting and bowing to Li Hongyu.

"Did you give them this food?" Li Hongyu asked the guards to carry out a bag of moldy grain from the room, and after opening it, he stared at the quartermaster with a serious expression, and asked in a deep voice.

"Lord Hui Governor, this food is indeed sent from a humble position."

The quartermaster glanced at the moldy grain in the bag, and immediately understood Li Hongyu's intention to call him over, and after his face changed, he hurriedly shouted:

"Lord Governor, it is not that the lowly duty intends to withhold their grain, the imperial court has long ordered the local soldiers to raise their own food, and the grain supply is a little, and the lowly position sees that they really have no food, but they can't violate the law, so they give them the inferior grain that is piled up in the granary."

The so-called "sitting grain" refers to the monthly salary of the soldiers, while the "traveling food" refers to the additional salary paid during the march.

Since the Tusi army's supply is solved by the Tusi in various places, its material supply is not in the military system of the Ming Dynasty, and this is also a way to prevent the Tusi army from leaving the defense area to cause chaos.

The reason why Qin Liangyu did not rush to Liaodong with Qin Bangping and others was because he was raising grain and grass in the rear, and the white pole soldiers brought by Qin Bangping were just the vanguard troops.

In the case that the military rations of the white pole soldiers were about to be exhausted, Ma Xianglin went to the quartermaster to borrow food, because it was the custom of the imperial court not to give the Tusi troops food and food, so the quartermaster naturally did not dare to give Ma Xianglin grain and grass privately, and the two sides broke out because of the verbal disagreement.

The quartermaster lived a comfortable life on weekdays, and naturally he was not the opponent of Ma Xianglin, who had been practicing martial arts since childhood, and was beaten by him, and then he was arrested and put in prison to wait for disposal.

"General Li, does the imperial court have this rule?" Li Hongyu didn't know about this custom of the imperial court, and he thought that the quartermaster deliberately detained and made things difficult for the white pole soldiers, so he asked Li Rubai on the side.

"Lord Hui Governor, this is indeed the case." Li Rubai nodded when he heard this, Li Hongyu is the new champion of the Ming Dynasty after all, and he is naturally not aware of some of the court's customizations in military affairs when he is in charge of military affairs.

"I see." Li Hongyu's brows furrowed, this custom is obviously unreasonable, and the military quartermaster should be borne by the state in the event of war, so he pondered for a while and then said to the quartermaster, "Passing on the order of the governor, from today onwards, all the troops who come to Liaodong to participate in the war will be distributed according to the custom of the Weisu army!" ”

"Obedience." The quartermaster immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and hurriedly replied in a loud voice, and from Li Hongyu's tone, he could see that Li Hongyu did not mean to punish him.

Qin Bangping and other generals of the white pole soldiers were immediately overjoyed when they heard this, so that they could be relieved of their worries, no longer have to worry about grain and grass, and they could fight with the Houjin army with peace of mind.

At the same time, Qin Bangping and others had a good impression of Li Hongyu in their hearts, believing that Li Hongyu was different from other Ming officials and was a person worthy of their trust.
