Chapter 120 Follow me and have meat to eat

"I'll ask for all the supplies collected from Fushun City before."

"good."

"I want the remnants of Lord Liu Jing."

"......... General Liu Jing was the soldiers summoned from the guard station. I'm afraid he still needs to..."

"Your Majesty promised me to do something cheap." Before Li Rubai could finish speaking, Lu Xuan held the other party back in one sentence.

"...Okay, I've agreed with this."

"My garrison suffered heavy losses in the previous battle. There were countless losses in food, grass and weapons. My new official took office and was even less food and salary. I still need the support of the adults."

None of the previous ones belonged to Li Rubai himself. He didn't feel sorry for sending them out. But Lu Xuan's words were directly to release Li Rubai's blood.

"General Lu, the food and salary issue is short of Liaodong. I don't have any surplus food here."

Is there a shortage of money for Liaodong? Of course, Is it because the court did not give money?

Not that it was just that the money did not fall into the soldiers' pockets. The Liaodong bureaucratic group was full of energy and was full of energy on Liao's salary. However, the lower-level soldiers could only barely make a living. They couldn't even have enough food. The soldiers had weak combat power and did not want to fight, which was not without reason.

It is not yet the Chongzhen period. The Liao pay has not yet reached the more than 10 million taels later. However, the Liaodong defense line has at least 8 million taels per year.

What does it mean to be eight million taels in this era? If you really take it out to buy Jiannu’s head, you can almost kill them. However, these eight million taels are probably less than one-tenth of the ones that are actually used on soldiers. Most of them are given empty wages or are directly embezzled and divided into spoils.

"Since there is no surplus grain, it's not difficult for me. I think there should be some basic reason for the grain warehouse. I will just make it difficult for me to scrape a little basic reason."

Lu Xuan knew that Shenyang had sufficient food and salary. The reason was that when Yang Kuo was in charge of Shenyang, he always held a mobile unit. There were about 15,000 people, all of which were elite. Unfortunately, until the war was over, Yang Kuo did not send this reserve army. He really didn't know where to send it.

As his base camp, Yang Huo, a civil servant, naturally prepared enough food and salary. If you don’t say anything else, he must first ensure his safety, right?

Li Rubai naturally knew this. Seeing that Lu Xuan was about to take the imperial edict to the granary treasury, he was suddenly panicked.

"Okay, I promise you. Shenyang's reserves will be divided into 20% of you."

"half."

"30%."

"Half." Lu Xuan's face was expressionless, just like a bargaining machine.

Li Rubai's scalp was numb when he saw Bingbing's eyes. He was this man, this man was a murderer who dared to attack Nurhaci alone and "destroyed" Yang Pao in one breath. The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and Li Rubai became cowardly.

"Okay, I'll share half of you."

"besides......"

"And? Lu Xuan, don't go too far." Li Rubai almost jumped up excitedly.

However, Lu Xuan seemed to have not seen his anger and continued to speak on his own.

"Also, sir, stay in Shenyang, away from the front line. And my Liaoyang Guard, and my north neighbor Jiannu, is a major concern for my Ming Dynasty. I am facing Korea in the east and am ready to move, and there are Japanese pirates on the beach. The war is complicated and fierce. And there are insufficient manpower. It requires a large amount of firearms to assist. The Shenyang Guard's firearms are not needed in a short period of time. Why lend us some first?"

Chen Lian also immediately understood what Lu Xuan meant.

"Do you want to eat meat? Follow General Lu, you can eat meat every day."
