It was a scorching June day, and the situation was chaotic.

Some ministers led by Xue Guoyong and Wang Huazhen strongly advocated attacking and defending to recover Shenyang.

Represented by Xiong Tingbi, who entered the dynasty in June, he proposed to take defense as an offensive and continue to follow Yuan Yingtai's strategy of garrisoning Liaoyang.

After the defeat in Liaoyang, Nurhachi still chose to move the capital to Shenyang, which can be described as eyeing Liaoyang.

The wheels of history roll forward.

The first year of the Apocalypse, June 13.

Yang Chengying returned to Jinzhou.

In the afternoon of the same day, he summoned Luo Sanjie, Ning Wanme and Su Xiaojing to discuss the next move.

Ning Wan analyzed: "In a few days, tens of thousands of Ming troops in Liaoyang City will be controlled by Wang Huazhen. Even if Xiong Tingbi is appointed as the Liaodong Economic Strategy, there is nothing he can do. At that time, a major war was inevitable, and the Liaoyang Dynasty was not in danger. ”

Yang Chengying took over the conversation and said, "So there is not much time left for us, and we must make sufficient preparations before this." ”

"What do you mean by ......"

"The first thing, of course, is to build up the armament. I plan to gather all the soldiers and horses in Jinzhou City, and adopt the strategy of suppressing and appeasing them to sweep away the bandits in Jinzhou and expand our manpower and material resources. ”

"It works. But care must be taken, the bandits are natives and familiar with the terrain. ”

"Hmm."

Of course, Yang Chengying knew that before suppressing the bandits, he should make all preparations.

However, when he learned about the mental condition of the soldiers, the whole person was stupid.

After a long period of military slackening, the soldiers under the command of Jinzhou Wei have become beggars.

He had no decent armor on his body, and no decent weapon in his hands.

The rice grain distributed in front of the unit only played a role in boosting morale.

But! Unable to form real combat effectiveness.

"Kill!"

"Kill ......"

"You haven't eaten? Shout at me, kill! ”

The instructor shouted.

"Kill ......"

The soldiers were still weak.

In a fit of rage, the instructor raised his whip and was about to beat them.

only to find that his wrist was grabbed and could not be beaten.

He turned his head angrily and saw that the person who grabbed his hand was actually Yang Chengying, and no matter how angry he was, it instantly dispersed.

Yang Chengying, who was a top student of the military academy in the previous life, was not used to this kind of soldier who had no spirit, but he would not whip the soldier because of this.

Yang Chengying let go of his hand and ordered: "That's it, let everyone go back to the camp to rest." ”

"Yes."

I originally wanted to test the level of the soldiers before going out to war, whether they had the strength to fight.

After only watching for half an hour, I knew that they might not be able to defeat the bandits in the territory.

Even if they can fight, according to Ning Wan, the entire territory of Liaodong is so poor that they are dying, and I don't know how much savings the bandits can have.

If you lose your people and horses, but you can't get the corresponding return, isn't it a particularly loss-making business.

Ay! Yang Chengying sighed in his heart.

Freezing three feet is not a day's cold, and I am too impatient.

I still have to learn from Zhuge Liang's practice in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, feed the terminally ill patients with gruel first, and wait for their physical fitness to gradually improve, and then give strong medicine.

Since you want to use "raising", you have to spend a lot of money and food, and you have just offended Wang Huazhen, the governor of Liaodong, and it is impossible to get money and food from him.

The "righteous army" of Chaoxian and Chaoxian has just been contacted, and it has not yet fully functioned.

If only I could make a small fortune like I did in Chaoxian! Yang Cheng should think.

Fresh, messenger, ocean!

Yang Chengying's eyes lit up, and he said in his heart: "I actually forgot such an important thing." ”

When Luo Sanjie heard Yang Chengying's new strategy, the whole person was stunned.

Ning Wan smiled and said, "Wonderful! The officials and masters in the capital took advantage of the trade between the two countries to engage in smuggling business, and they were all so rich that they should have some blood. ”

"Engaging in extortion against them will offend a large number of nobles in the DPRK and China, and if they collectively blame them, we may not be able to eat and walk around."

Luo Sanjie instinctively felt that something was wrong.

Yang Chengying gave him a blank look, "If I had a way, I wouldn't have gone sideways." Anyway, I didn't do much of the great crime against the sky, and I don't care about this one more. ”

In one word, dry!

Yang Chengying only left a very small number of soldiers to maintain law and order in Jinzhou City, and all the rest were taken to the Jinzhou Zhongzuo Office, which is now Lushun.

Here, Yang Chengying mixed them with the soldiers of the Central Left Office, and all of them were under the command and training of Xu Shang.

But for the time being, I don't train, and I only eat every day.

As for when it will start, wait for Yang Chengying's order.

And why did Yang Chengying go?

He lived at the dock with the three hundred Tiger Brigade.

One day, several large ships docked at the pier as usual.

A group of well-dressed people walked down from one of the ships, ready to go to the restaurant for dinner.

As soon as he got off the boat, he was stopped by a group of soldiers.

The young man at the head came out of the crowd and said in a deep voice: "You are suspicious, we will board the ship and check it." ”

A manservant who came down from the boat heard this, and said arrogantly: "You are so bold, do you know whose ship it is!" ”

"I don't know. Does this have anything to do with our inspection? ”

"This is the boat of the brother-in-law of the Ministry of War, you dare to search it, be careful that my master will let you go around without food!"

"Yo! What a big breath. ”

The young man smiled, but his left hand suddenly stretched out, pushing the manservant back hard.

The manservant screamed "ouch" and fell heavily to the ground.

Seeing that his companion is at a loss, the other manservants will take action.

The soldiers behind the young man immediately drew their swords in their hands and completely surrounded them.

When the owner of the ship saw it, he changed his face and said with a smile: "Misunderstanding, isn't it?" We definitely don't have the idea of offending the military master. ”

Then, he whispered to the young man: "This military master, can you take a step to speak?" ”

"Yes."

The young man went to his side.

The owner of the ship stuffed some silver into his hand and said with a sneer: "Master Jun, you see that this matter is a pure misunderstanding, can you not board the ship?" ”

"It's okay not to board the ship."

The young man's words relieved the shipowner.

But the next sentence made his heart tighten.

"You must agree to one condition to me, otherwise the two sides will have an unpleasant quarrel." Youth Road.

"On what terms?" The owner asked.

"When your ship comes back from Chaoxian, it must carry some food."

"It can't be! We have a quota for our goods, and we don't have time to carry food. ”

"Oh? Then I can't blame me. ”

The young man said coldly.

The owner of the ship was angry, and he said coldly: "Little brother, some things can be stopped in moderation, don't be ignorant!" ”

The young man threw the silver in his hand to the ground and shouted, "Someone! Slaughter these unscrupulous goods directly for me! ”

As soon as the words fell, the soldiers raised their knives to cut.

This frightened the owner of the ship, and he hurriedly apologized: "Don't don't, there is something to say." I just said nothing, and I ask for forgiveness. ”

"If you don't know the truth of 'a strong dragon doesn't suppress the head snake', you won't really cooperate with us."

The young man waved his hand, and the soldiers surrounded the people on the boat and boarded the boat to search.

"No, no, you can't ......"

As soon as the owner of the ship shouted, the young man grabbed the placket of his clothes, dragged him onto the ship, and threw him on deck.
