After the shock, everyone was excited in their hearts, and they whispered about the future development of the Jiliao Governor's Mansion, and what kind of changes will happen to the Ming Dynasty after the Jiliao Governor's Mansion intervenes in the government.

At this time, Zhou Tianyi said with a smile: "Supervisor, since the affairs have been almost discussed, how should the good news of the Liaodong War be reported?" When should we report it? ”

Liu Yunwei pondered slightly, and said: "Wait a minute, this governor has already sent a letter to the virtuous brother Zheng Zhilong, let's wait for Zheng Zhilong's reply first." In his letter, the governor proposed that the mink, ginseng, deer antler velvet and other goods captured by our army in the Liaodong War be exchanged for money and grain for the Mongol tribes and Korea. As for the good news, let's wait until the exact news comes back from Zheng Zhibao. ”

Zhou Tianyi showed a look of surprise on his face when he heard this, and everyone was also overjoyed, in this way, the only weakness of the Jiliao Governor's Mansion was also eliminated, and no matter how those Donglin Party officials in the DPRK and China behaved, it would not threaten the safety of the army!

After finishing speaking, Liu Yunwei smiled and said to everyone: "Okay! Now that all the matters have been discussed, let's go back and start implementing them. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Kaishan jumped out and said loudly: "Supervisor, didn't you say that dinner was prepared?" Why did you let us all go back separately? ”

"Haha! The discussion went so smoothly that it was not time for dinner, so let's not delay the time at the Governor's place, and go back to eat. ”

Zhao Kaishan muttered when he heard this: "Why is the supervisor so stingy, he has won a big victory, and he can't even afford to invite a meal of wine and food." ”

The crowd burst into laughter.

After that, Liu Yunwei led the soldiers of the Hanwei Army Pacesetter Battalion to be stationed in Shenyang City for more than a month, and took Shenyang City as the temporary location of the entire Jiliao Governor's Office, and fully commanded the reorganization and expansion of the Hanwei Army and the soldiers of the Dangkou Battalion.

According to Liu Yunwei's plan, the overall strength of the Hanwei Army's battalions remained unchanged before the war, and the current reorganization only completely replenished the strength of each battalion, and the official positions of generals at all levels were promoted by one level. In addition, Liu Yunwei will also play in the imperial court and ask for rewards for generals at all levels and soldiers of the whole army.

As for the soldiers and horses of the Dangkou battalion, they were to make up for the pre-war strength after the reorganization, and then the whole army was divided into three, with Li Dingguo, Li Laiheng, and Ai Nengqi each leading a large army, and according to the deployment at the meeting, they were divided into troops to defend various places.

Therefore, under the unified command of Zhou Tianyi and the planning department, the various battalions and camps of the Hanwei Army carried out large-scale conscription among the displaced people in eastern Liaodong.

However, after the ravages of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Liaodong was, after all, the population had plummeted, and there were not enough young men suitable for enlistment, and it was necessary to maintain a considerable number of young and strong men to engage in production, restore the production and development of various parts of Liaodong, and not recruit too many young and strong men to enlist in the army. As a result, under the coordination of the Planning Department, a large number of displaced people from Guannei entered Liaodong from the front line of Shanhaiguan, Guangning City, and Gaizhou Acropolis, which not only enriched the seriously insufficient labor force in various places, but also fully met the needs of the Hanwei Army and the Dangkou Battalion to replenish the troops.

The beginning of October in the third year of Chongzhen (the third year of Tiancong in the Manchu Dynasty).

The land of Liaodong is already cold and windy, but the hearts of the people in Liaodong are full of hope.

Just when the autumn was cold and winter, Liu Yunwei solemnly ordered the Jiliao Governor's Mansion to transport a large amount of grain from Shanhaiguan by land and Liaonan Hailu respectively, and the Hanwei army and the soldiers of the Dangkou battalion who had been stationed in various parts of Liaodong were responsible for escorting and distributing it to the people in various cities, villages and towns.

At the same time, Liu Yunwei also ordered the Liaodong and Nuer Gandu Divisions to be put under military control, and all the grain, cotton clothing, fuel, and medicine in the territory of Liaodong and Nuer Gandu Divisions were rationed, and when the needs of the garrison troops in various localities were ensured, the people in all localities were evenly distributed, and no one was allowed to die of cold and starvation.

Just when the reorganization of the Hanwei Army and the Dangkou camp, as well as the relief of the people in various places, were being carried out in an orderly manner, Sun Yuanhua, Ma Shiming, and Chen Zitong also led the generals under the Jiliao Governor's Mansion to rush to various parts of Liaodong, and were actively preparing for the construction of military workshops and commercial ports in various parts of Liaodong, which is expected to be completed before the Spring Festival and can operate normally after the spring of next year.

Just when Liu Yunwei was busy, Zheng Zhilong sent his younger brother Zheng Zhihu across the sea, and Zheng Zhihu came with a huge fleet of thousands of sea ships, which was anchored in the port outside Lushun City.

Liu Yunwei was very happy after receiving the news, and immediately sent Guo Yi to lead a hundred Longxiang Iron Cavalry soldiers to the south, rushed to Lushun City to meet Zheng Zhihu and his party, and welcomed Zheng Zhihu and his party to the Gaizhou Acropolis.

At the same time, Liu Yunwei instructed Li Tianhao, the chief military officer of Shenyang Town, to restore all the forts and passes under the jurisdiction of Shenyang City as soon as possible, and to wait until the soldiers of the Yue Cavalry Battalion were fully reorganized, and then divide the troops to garrison around Shenyang City and firmly guard all parts of Shenyang Town.

After that, Liu Yunwei led the soldiers of the Hanwei Army Pacesetter Battalion to the south and rushed towards the Gaizhou Acropolis.

Four days later, Liu Yunwei led the army of the Hanwei Army Pacesetter Battalion to the Gaizhou Acropolis. Outside the North City Gate, Guo Yi and Zheng Zhihu led a cadre of officials of all sizes in the Gaizhou Acropolis to greet Liu Yunwei and his army on both sides of the official road.

After Liu Yunwei saw Zheng Zhihu and Guo Yi, he laughed and turned over and dismounted, and said, "General Zheng, we haven't seen each other for a long time!" With that, Liu Yunwei strode towards Zheng Zhihu.

Zheng Zhihu saw that Liu Yunwei, the dignified Uncle of the Broken Army and the Governor of Jiliao, actually walked over to him, and immediately felt flattered, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"The last general has seen the overseer!"

After speaking, Zheng Zhihu paid a big salute.

Liu Yunwei pulled Zheng Zhihu up and said, "How is it?" Does my brother have a reply? ”

Zheng Zhihu said with a smile: "Inspector Qiqi, the last general came this time, and my brother raised five million stones of grain, three million taels of silver, a total of 400,000 pieces of cotton clothes and quilts, and 8,000 boxes of various medicines; In addition, there are 60,000 pieces of various agricultural equipment. Now this batch of supplies is on the fleet of ships anchored in the port outside Arthur! ”

"Good!"

Liu Yunwei was overjoyed after hearing this, and his heart was suddenly settled. In this way, even if the war against the Mongol tribes and the Korean State is immediately launched now, even if the Donglin Party in the imperial court cuts off the financial resources of the Jiliao Governor's Mansion, Liu Yunwei can be invincible!

The batch of materials transported by Zheng Zhilong can not only greatly alleviate the difficulties of helping the people of Liaodong, but also enrich the grain and grass of the army, which can really be described as timely rain!

Liu Yunwei took Zheng Zhihu's hand with a little excitement and said, "General Zheng, you came at the right time!" This time, after resting for a few days in the Acropolis of Gaizhou, the Governor will lead his army to Shanhaiguan, and then enter the customs and rush to the capital, but the Governor will leave General Guo Yi behind. This batch of materials will be handed over by General Lao Zheng and General Guo Yi together, and the governor needs to transfer these materials to the Jiliao Governor's Mansion as soon as possible, and the people of Liaodong need this batch of materials too much to survive the winter! ”

Zheng Zhihu and Guo Yi said with a straight face when they heard this: "Please rest assured, the superintendent will definitely handle this matter as soon as possible!" ”

Then, Liu Yunwei continued to say to Guo Yi: "After all these materials are handed over, they will all be concentrated in the Gaizhou Acropolis, and then the money and grain needed by each town will be transported in place as soon as possible, and the general soldiers of each town will send people to pick it up themselves." At the same time, inform the Tunshou Division and the Planning Department that the quilts, cotton clothes and food in the materials will be distributed to the people in need of relief as soon as possible! ”

Guo Yi said solemnly: "Please rest assured, the last general will definitely live up to his mission!" ”

After speaking, Liu Yunwei took Zheng Zhihu's hand and said with a smile: "Go!" General Zheng, let's go to the city first. The governor has already transported 20,000 animal skins, 50,000 catties of ginseng, 50,000 catties of deer antlers, 6,000 mink skins, and 400 Dongzhu to the Acropolis of Gaizhou in advance, so let's take a look now. Once the fleet you brought has unloaded and handed over all the supplies, you can load all the goods onto the ship! ”

Zheng Zhihu was overjoyed when he heard that Liu Yunwei had prepared such a rich fortune, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

You must know that the ginseng, deer antlers, mink, animal skins, and Dongzhu and other goods produced in Liaodong are priceless treasures in short supply when they are placed in the land south of the Yangtze River and in the West and other countries! The batch of goods prepared by Liu Yunwei is rich in variety and huge quantity, which is enough to offset the Zheng family's expenditure on raising materials, and it can also make the Zheng family make a fortune!

Liu Yunwei also smiled when he saw Zheng Zhihu's happy expression, and took everyone to check on this batch of goods.

Three days later, Liu Yunwei led the army of the Hanwei Army Pacesetter Battalion to leave the Gaizhou Acropolis and drove west towards the Liao River. Guo Yi led 500 Longxiang Iron Cavalry soldiers to stay in the Gaizhou Acropolis and handle the handover of materials with Zheng Zhihu.

Two days later, Liu Yunwei led his army across the Liao River and arrived at Guangning City in three days.

Zhao Kaishan, the general military officer of Guangning stationed in Guangning City, had already received the news and led all the generals above the garrison level of the Huben Battalion in advance, as well as the large and small officials in Guangning City, to go out of the east gate to greet him.

After Liu Yunwei saw Zhao Kaishan, he turned over and dismounted, and said with a smile: "Kaishan, how is it?" The general soldier of this town feels pretty good, right? ”

Zhao Kaishan said with a bitter face: "Big brother, the chief soldier of this town is really tiring!" Not only did I have to train soldiers and horses, replenish troops, raise food and grass for troops, and repair various passes and forts, but I also had to divide troops and garrison them in various places to check the terrain and key points in various places. Since I became the chief soldier of Quang Ninh Town, I haven't slept a peaceful night, which is much more tiring than marching and fighting! ”

Liu Yunwei laughed when he heard this, and said: "Haha, of course, this is the difference between a general and a handsome." You must know that after you become the commander-in-chief of Guangning Town, you can lead the army to fight in all directions alone, and you will be the commander of the army in the future, not the general who is dispatched by Hou, but you must read more military books, and don't rely on your own temperament in everything! ”

Zhao Kaishan laughed when he heard this, and said, "Don't worry, big brother, I must keep it in mind!" ”
