Li Rubai snatched up and bowed: "I have met the Lord Supervisor."

Yang Hao supported him and smiled and said, "Brother Xiao Cheng, are you still doing this with me? When your old man was in the past, no one in Liaodong was afraid of him? You didn't put any airs on me back then."

He was very pleased with Li Rubo for his title and did not show any boss's proposition. Li Rubo felt very pleased, and at the same time he felt a little angry. The Li family was no longer in glory, and many civil servants had already begun to show off in front of him. You must know that when Li Chengliang was in power, he was almost the same as the King of Liaodong. His elder brother Li Rusong was in the position of general of Xuanfu and even beat a third-rank civil servant. This incident caused an uproar. In the end, Emperor Wanli suppressed him. Li Rubo muttered a few words in his heart, and his face still squeezed out a smile.

The two sat opposite each other and drank tea in the room. Yang Hao mentioned the matter in the capital and finally said: "It seems inevitable that the use of troops will be made. I will make a fuss with the capital. However, if you urge me again, you will have to take action immediately. Xiao Cheng, you must prepare your troops at all times after you go back. Once the court orders, you will be vowed to advance at the same time."

Li Rubai knew in his heart that the court's decision to advance troops now was very absurd. The civil officials in the court did not know the actual strength of the Jianzhou department, and even Yang Hao in front of him did not know that the old slave had been in charge for many years. In the past thirty years, he had developed an invincible strong soldier with excellent armor and strict divisions. His personal courage and overall command were perfect. Even when Liao Town was at its peak, it was difficult to fight such an opponent. He needed the assistance of other military towns, let alone the poor strength of the current Liaodong Ming Army.

But he couldn't say such a thing, and even Yang Hao could not say it bluntly. Yang Hao was stubborn, stubborn, and narrow-minded. During the Japanese turmoil in the Ion Chen, the conflict between the Southern Army and the Northern Army, as well as the conflict between Yang Hao and Ma Gui, led to the defeat of the Ming army in Ulsan. The Li family knew very well about the incident that year, because Li Rusong had thought of returning to North Korea and becoming the commander of the South. If he had not died unfortunately in the war with the Mongols, Li Rusong and the Li family members would have probably set foot on the North Korea again, the land of the South.

When I remembered my elder brother Li Rubai, I sighed in my heart. Li Rusong's talents and abilities were outstanding, and he was deeply favored by the emperor. Emperor Wanli tolerated it. In the North and the North, Li Rusong also called Li Rusong the Martial Arts. If it were not Yang Hao in front of me as the supervisor, but Li Rusong as the commander, I might have a fight.

Despite his heart's complaints, Li Rubai still bowed and said, "I would like to thank Master Supervisor for his trust."

Yang Hao waved his hand and said, "If you follow me, Xiao Cheng is enough to be the chief general of the Western Army, but the officials in the court have other ideas. Besides, Du Song is not a good person to talk to!"

Li Rubai said with some resentment: "Du Heizi has been in a great honor this time. His subordinates have clashed with my subordinates many times. I asked someone to inform him privately, but he ignored me."

This was a private talk with the supervisor. Yang Hao did not stop him, but showed a very interested expression.

At this time, a long time followed and bowed and said, "Master, Deputy General He is here."

Yang Hao stood up and smiled and said, "He is here, we will still talk to the table."

Yang Hao's food here seems to be very ordinary in Li Rubo's identity. The ordinary dishes and the stew are not exquisite, and the wine is also ordinary. He has always been very particular about the sensuality and sex, but he really can't raise any interest. However, the topic He Shixian said made Li Rubo very interested.

"This guy is so inappropriate." Li Rubai was quite angry and said to Yang Hao: "General, deputy general, are only one line apart. Deputy General He and I are both brothers when we were in the army. Du Heizi's airs are too strong."

He Shixian added: "It is also not to take our Liao Town soldiers into consideration."

Although most of He Shixian's personal soldiers were from Shaanxi, he actually started his career in Liaodong and his troops were also soldiers in Liaozhen. He could naturally share the same hatred with Li Rubai.

Yang Hao did not express his attitude, but did not stop the two military officers from complaining and slandering their colleagues.

After the meal, He Shixian and Li Rubai went out together. Yang Hao sent them out of the second door and turned around. In the courtyard of the front door, He Shixian was riding a horse and stood in the middle of the room and was helped by his personal soldiers to tie his cloak. Li Rubai's sedan chair was waiting outside. He Shixian whispered to Li Rubai: "Li Shuai, I think the Supervisor is supporting us. What do you think?"

Li Rubai said: "The most evil thing in the supervisor is Liu Ying, followed by Du Heizi. Tonight it is obvious that he is asking us to work hard. He will fight for us and ask us to leave Du Heizi."

He Shixian clapped his hands and said, "We are not afraid of fighting, we can fight with Madman Du."

Li Rubai smiled but said nothing. He and He Shixian's servants were still elite. Li's servants were not much. They were older. However, a lean camel was bigger than a horse. As long as they were used well, they could still play a big role. He Shixian himself was brave and the servants trained were also very powerful. However, the number of soldiers and officers belonging to the two was not large, unlike the Western Army. With a large number of military generals, the number of servants would be more. The combined combat power would be stronger. In addition, the total number of soldiers and horses of the Southern Army was more than 20,000, which seemed to be worse than the Western Army's 30,000.

There are not many, but the Western Army and the Northern Army are mostly soldiers of Yansui Guyuan and Datong Xuanfu. The elite level is much stronger than the Liaozhen soldiers, which have been corrupted for a long time. Although the Western Army transferred is not the main force of the servants of each town, its combat effectiveness is still far above the Liaozhen camp soldiers. The Northern Army has Ye He soldiers as the Allied Army, and the Eastern Army has more than 10,000 Korean soldiers, Korean soldiers, and Korean soldiers are transferred from Hamkyung Road, which is also the North Army. The only soldiers and horses that can fight among the Eight Roads of the South Road. In fact, the strength of the South Road is only slightly stronger than that of the East Road. It is indeed difficult to compete with Du Song for this battle.

Although He Shixian was very fierce, he was not very sensible. Seeing Li Rubai's appearance, he knew his thoughts. He said with a depressed look: "What should I do? Isn't this meal for the Supervisor for nothing?"

Li Rubai smiled and said, "The supervisor's meaning is just to tell us that he supports us. He is dissatisfied with Du Song and Liu Dadao. As for what we do, did he say?"

"this?"

Li Rubai walked all the way and got into the sedan chair. He waved his hand and said, "I'll talk about it tomorrow morning after the army's discussion!"

...

He Shixian and Du Song were the latest to arrive, and the other civil servants and generals who were summoned had already arrived in Shenyang City.

For the people of Shenyang City, it has been a long time since they have seen so many officials and generals gathered in this acropolis with more than 200 years of history. There are also a large number of soldiers and horses stationed in the city. During these times, the residents in the city often clash with officers and soldiers. The court lacks food and pay, and often owes military pay. The soldiers are unwilling to be hungry and cold, and loot people's wealth or forcibly occupy them. Because of insufficient military pay, the generals are unwilling to over-restrain their subordinates.

It is likely to lead to mutiny. Since Jiajing, mutiny has occurred from time to time due to insufficient national use or excessive civil servants’ oppression. In Hangzhou decades ago, the general was beaten up by the rioters and the general was forced to jump over the wall by the rioters, and they might be beaten to death if they ran too late. More than ten years later, the governor who was forced to fight for money in Liaozhen was hanging himself. All the problems in the Ming Dynasty were actually financial issues, but there were never politicians who were really interested in exploring and solving this problem.

The guards were very strict near the headquarters of the Supervisor. However, under the superficial vigilance, Yang Hao's eyes had never seriously examined his subordinates. Whether it was the preparation of military or the control of military discipline, there was a robbery and murder case a few nights ago. Today is the first seventh day. Because the military discussion was about to be held, the relatives of the deceased could not get close to them. They had to lit the paper men and horses brought by the alley not far away, and let out a low cry.

Outside the gate, swords and guns were like forests, flags were flying, and the tips of swords and guns were flashing cold light under the morning mist. Yang Hao's flag was flying high on the mast six feet high inside the gate, but this morning there was no wind, and the flag was hanging low, just like the mood of people coming to the meeting.

The theme of the meeting was not very popular, but the officials who came to participate were very clear in their hearts that it was February. Chaozheng urged the troops several times. Everyone thought that sending troops at this time was not in line with the weather, and the weather was still too cold, and there was still no residual snow everywhere. This era is in the Little Ice Age, and Liaodong is one of the coldest places in China. The weather in February is only slightly better than in the deep winter, and there is no heavy snow after another. In such a weather, the morale of the army will not be high. In addition, everyone understands that Yang Hao is not capable enough, and he has not sorted out the relationship between subordinates at all, and he has no understanding of all the generals. During the war, he, as the supervisor, will not be on the front line to supervise the war, and only stays in Shenyang City to watch the rough map command. What will this battle be like? At least these people who are ordered to execute are completely unsatisfied.

At the beginning of the Chen hour, the first cannon sounded, and then the gate of the supervisor's headquarters opened. People passed through two rows of door flags, and then the gate of the guards standing with two rows of guards. Then the lobby was located. This was completely different from the situation when Li Rubai and He Shixian came to the banquet yesterday. Two teams of guards with bright armor stood at the steps of the lobby, holding long swords and iron spears and other weapons. Behind them were various military flags. Two rows of leopard tail flags were still placed at the position last night. The tip of the flag pole was the tip of the front tax gun, which was the sign of the important hall of the military aircraft. The civil and military officials did not order to enter the hall without orders. After the cannon sounded, the civil officials, including the governor of Ji Liao, Wang Keshou, who came from the pass, Zhou Yongchun, the governor of Liaodong, and all the military generals stood outside the second gate, waiting to be summoned by Yang Hao, who was the left assistant minister of the Ministry of War, to be summoned by Yang Hao, who was the governor of Liaodong, who was the left assistant minister of the Ministry of War.

Everyone did not wait for too long. The second cannon rang. Yang Hao, wearing a big red official robe and peacock uniform embroidered on his chest, walked out from behind the screen surrounded by his staff and guards.
