Early in the morning of October 24, Xiao Ruxun crossed the Yangtze River to make preliminary preparations for the coming war, and after arriving at the city of Yiju, he found the Joseon kings Li Hao and Yoo Sung-ryong, and the three entered a secret room and had a very secret conversation.

"What? Thirty days? General Xiao is finally going to do it? ”

Li Hao was surprised inexplicably, but Liu Chenglong looked embarrassed and said: "Admiral, maybe we shouldn't say it at this time, but we ......"

Xiao Ruxun raised his hand to signal that Liu Chenglong didn't have to go on, and said: "This governor already knows that the use of troops in Pyongyang on October 30 was decided after consultation with the Ministry of War and Song Jinglue, and it will not be changed. ”

Liu Chenglong breathed a sigh of relief, these days, he is really tired of him.

"But this doesn't mean that you don't need to repair it, Mr. Liu, Wang Shang, the road still has to continue to be repaired, and the warehouse must continue to be repaired, otherwise the Ming army will not be able to move forward, in a word, where the grain and grass can be transported, the Ming army will fight wherever it is, if you can send the grain and grass to Wangjing now, the governor can also hit Wangjing now."

Xiao Ruxun put the words here.

Li Hao was happy and relaxed, but the burden on Liu Chenglong was heavier.

After repeatedly warning Li Hao not to tell the people around him about this matter, Xiao Ruxun retired with Liu Chenglong.

On the way back to the official office, Liu Chenglong seemed to have something to say, Xiao Ruxun looked at Liu Chenglong's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, so he spoke first: "Mr. Liu, what else do you want to say to the governor?" ”

Liu Chenglong was stunned for a moment, looked at Xiao Ruxun's normal complexion, and hurriedly said: "It's nothing, it's just that thinking about transporting grain, grass and ordnance is really complicated and difficult, so it's quite a bit tiring, and the admiral doesn't have to care." ”

Xiao Ruxun smiled: "This governor can remind you more than a month in advance, leave enough time, change to someone else, I'm afraid you don't have this heart, when the front-line soldiers fight bloodily, but they can't eat, they're really hungry, those generals and soldiers will tear you apart and eat you!" The Governor is not joking, a hungry soldier can do anything, and although the Governor is strict with military discipline, he can't restrain the hungry. ”

"What the Admiral said is true." Liu Chenglong only promised: "The foreign minister will do everything possible to ensure the supply of military food and materials for the army, so that wherever the army fights, the grain transportation team will go!" ”

"It was better to do so." Xiao Ruxun nodded, walked a few more steps, stopped, and turned his head to look at Liu Chenglong, who was a little stunned: "Mr. Liu, there are some things that you and I tacitly know, you don't have to say it, but it doesn't mean that you don't have to do it, this governor doesn't say it, it is to save face for the king and leave room for my two countries to turn around, but if Li Xu's existence makes my army's plan of action leak, I won't give anyone face, I will kill people directly." ”

Liu Chenglong was stunned for a moment, his face turned pale, and he quickly knelt down and said, "The Admiral is angry!" The Admiral's wrath! The matter ...... The foreign minister also learned about this matter not long ago, and he did not dare to confirm it, but he ...... But the foreign minister is really starting an investigation, and the results will be available soon! Please keep quiet! ”

"Get up, I am not a king, what do you do with me?" Xiao Ruxun squatted down and helped Liu Chenglong up: "Mr. Liu, you are one of the few capable courtiers among the courtiers around the king, if it is not necessary, I don't want to force you to be like this, but I have reminded you several times openly and secretly, and I have given you several opportunities, but you have not made any moves, let that spy jump up and down, and even came to me to spy on the military plane, do you really think I am a fool?" ”

As soon as Liu Chenglong heard this, his legs became weak, and if he hadn't been held up by Xiao Ruxun, he was afraid that he would have collapsed to the ground.

"I have carefully studied Zu Chengxun's report, and after coming here, I also sent someone to investigate secretly, the evidence of Li Xu's collaboration with the enemy is in my hands, if this matter is known by the Ming Emperor, you should also know what the consequences will be, I don't care who is behind Li Xu's back, you remember to me, behind me, it is the Ming Emperor who is backing, and you, with my support, replace him, but don't kill him, just today!"

Liu Chenglong's forehead was full of beads of sweat, and his lips kept trembling, and it took a while to calm down and look at Xiao Ruxun.

"It's still useful to keep this spy, replace him, don't let him find out that he has been exposed."

Xiao Ruxun looked at Liu Chenglong coldly, Liu Chenglong touched the beads of sweat on his forehead, and nodded resignedly.

"Has the preparation of your country's army, which was dispatched with the army, completed?"

Xiao Ruxun looked at Liu Chenglong's colorless appearance, so he diverted the topic to give him a chance to breathe.

"Oh, quasi-...... Ready to go! Liu Chenglong breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly replied: "This time the monks who were sent to act with the Heavenly Army were 1,500 monks and soldiers led by Master Xiu Jing, the head of the Eight Dao and Sixteen Sects, and the 1,500 troops of General Li Yi. ”

"Well, the monks are still very reliable." Xiao Ruxun nodded with satisfaction: "In the past, there was a rebellion in the southeast of the Ming Dynasty, General Qi Jiguang and General Yu Dayou fought in the battle of Pingyu, and there were also monks and soldiers who were very active. ”

"The foreign minister wishes the Admiral a great victory in the first battle!"

Liu Chenglong bowed deeply.

Xiao Ruxun stretched out his hand to help Liu Chenglong: "To put it bluntly, people are iron, rice is steel, if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry and panic, no matter how strong the soldier is, you have to eat, you can't do anything without eating, whether you can win a battle depends on the governor, whether you can win a battle, it depends on you Liu Chenglong, you can send the ordnance and grain and grass to the front line of the army in full amount, the governor can win the battle, you can't send it, the governor will not sit still, this is the last warning." ”

Liu Chenglong's heart was shocked, goodbye.

After Xiao Ruxun left, Liu Chenglong looked at the back of Xiao Ruxun leaving, and couldn't calm down for a long time, the power of this young admiral general was so heavy, but it was not a sense of domineering, as if it was an innate sense of oppression, which I usually couldn't feel, but once I felt it, it was like a big stone pressing on my chest and I couldn't breathe, it was really terrifying.

A restrained master.

Liu Chenglong has no doubt about the victory of this battle.

On the evening of the 24th, Xiao Ruxun crossed the river and returned to the north, and ordered to hold a pledge meeting to cross the river early tomorrow morning.

In the early morning of the 25th, with the sound of 12 cannons, the beating of military drums, and the sound of drums and trumpets, a total of 45,000 soldiers of the Ming Eastern Expeditionary Army gathered in accordance with the distribution of the left, center and right armies, waiting for the main general Xiao Ruxun to review, and the soldiers who had eaten breakfast were full of spirit and high morale and gathered in a predetermined area.

In a moment, the drums stopped, the trumpets stopped, and a team of horses rushed straight in front of the army.

Xiao Ruxun, the commander of the army, took his personal guards to the point general platform and made an official appearance.
