Chapter 1104

"Master Li, you must understand how much the soldiers and horses led by President Li of the Xuanfu government eat and use every day. The number of troops led by the Liao Kingdom is even greater. You can probably estimate how much they eat and use every day. This is the place where I want to go, when I go back, Master Li can ride around on horseback, there is no place you can't enter, if you have extra rations, I will apologize to you!"

What she said was so polite, but Li Rumei was also discouraged at this time. I don't know if the other party is stuck in his neck, but it's useless to say anything without food.

Xu Guangguo spoke politely, but his demeanor was not at all polite. He pointed to the shipping team not far away and said:

"Your [-] large livestock and nearly [-] soldiers all have to rely on Yizhou to transfer food and grass. Do you know how much care I have put into it, and do you know how much local consumption in Liaoning is? For the family It's ridiculous to use such thoughts to speculate about merits and advances lightly."

After saying these words, Xu Guangguo walked away, leaving Li Rumei looking around with a pale face.

After Xu Guangguo returned to his temporary government office, he received reports from the guards, saying that Li Rumei walked through almost every warehouse, and finally returned disappointed.Hearing this, Xu Guangguo just sneered.

Sun Shoulian, who went to Changbai Mountain, has already returned with his army. In fact, the Japanese pirate army did not have the strength to reach the border area at the foot of the mountain. The area of ​​Ning'an Road is larger than that of Ping'an Road, but the area near Daming is mostly mountainous, and the terrain is also complicated. They are transported from South Korea. It is extremely inconvenient for food to come to Ning'an Road, and its own strategic value is not great, so after the Japanese pirate army occupied half of the area, there was no movement, but it made the Ming army in this direction feel no pressure.

"Master Sun, you need to hurry up to build the big car in your place."

"Master Fujun, please rest assured that there will be no delay in the matter. After the cart is built, grain can be imported from Jianzhou and Liaodong immediately, and the Duke's military supplies will not be delayed!"

There was indeed no food in the warehouse, and the army led by Li Rusong was indeed exhausted. Xu Guangguo didn't tell a single lie, but there was a lot of information that Li Rumei didn't know.

"It's extremely dangerous to advance lightly. It's absurd to want the local government to provide him with more food and grass. Could it be that the Li family's achievements are related to the rise and fall of the Ming Dynasty, and they don't know the importance and ignore the overall situation!"

Xu Guangguo and Sun Shoulian were considered to be their own people, and they spoke a lot more casually. After listening to Xu Guangguo's words, Sun Shoulian shook his head and said:
"The lower officials have also worked under Li Chengliang's command for many years. I know the Li family's behavior well. I'm afraid this matter will not be so easy to let go. Li Chengliang must still care about it."

Xu Guangguo also shook his head, sighed and said:

"He doesn't think about it. If there is a mistake, his sons will not mention it in front of him. This is also a crime of violating military laws. The risk is too great. I really don't know."

Sun Shoulian pondered for a long time, then sighed and said:

"I can't let it go!"

******************
The Li family had enough manpower. After the head was transported across the Yalu River, there were naturally various people to help manage it. Li Rumei didn't get more food and grass, so she could only lead her people back to Pyongyang City.

Now the territory of Ping'an Road has been almost wiped out, only the local Korean bandits and a small group of Japanese pirates from Ning'an Road, it is still a safe place, Li Rumei's team is accompanied by more than a hundred North Korean civil and military officials, flattering along the way Very soon, since she was so flattering, Li Rumei wanted to have fun. God knows how this group of North Korean officials found a lady from a wealthy local family in a dilapidated place, which made Li Rumei feel comfortable all night.

That is to say, after delaying this day and night, Li Rumei was overtaken by her family members who came from Daming. It can be seen that he walked slowly and the people behind him walked so fast.

The person who caught up was Li Yi, one of Li Chengliang's adoptive sons. He said he was a foster son, but he was actually the house manager of the Li family in Liaoyang. Very polite, this person is also an important role in the Li family.

The situation in Pyongyang City has probably stabilized. At that time, the North Korean civilians who had fled to the mountains began to flee again. However, many people fled quickly, because Pyongyang City did not have much food and grass reserves, and military rations were specially provided for them. The soldiers and horses given to the Li family will not be used for relief, and they can only wait to starve to death in the city.

After these North Korean officials came to Pyongyang City, they will take over the civil affairs. According to them, this can better cooperate with the actions of the Chinese army. Li Rusong didn't want to pay attention to these people, because it doesn't mean that they can raise money when they come. Sending out food and fodder, and conscripting civilian husbands, will actually consume the food and grass of the army.

However, Li Rumei was treated well by the other party on the way, and she couldn't get rid of this embarrassment, so she made peace and let the North Koreans settle down on the spot.

Although these people couldn't find food, they couldn't recruit civilian husbands, but they had other skills. They led the Ming army through the wall and found the cellars in several mansions. Although not much food was found, there were still gold and silver treasures. Yes, if they get rich, it is necessary for everyone to share the profit.

Moreover, this person has a skill. Many of the North Korean families in the city and outside the city who have fled and returned cannot maintain their livelihoods. There are many people who sold their properties, and many of their family members sold themselves to survive. The language is not clear, or they can't find a way to sell, but they don't want to sell. At this time, the North Korean officials will make an introduction and get some benefits. The soldiers of the Li family will get rich happily, and they will also get the benefits.

In the past, the brothers of the Li family and a group of cronies liked this kind of scene the most, and they had to have fun with the people, but now they are not in the mood, and discuss matters inside the house all day long.

Li Yi brought Li Chengliang's letterhead, and there was also a message. The letterhead clearly stated that the victory of Ping'an Road was extremely eye-catching. In all parts of the capital, the Li family gained a lot of points. Officials at all levels, government and opposition groups, had With this victory as a backing, speaking for the Li family also seemed full of confidence.

Li Chengliang also said that now is the time to take advantage of the victory. If he can win Seoul before Wang Tong enters Uiju, it will be an inexhaustible feat. Replacing Wang Tong as the coach will be sure, and it is hopeful to reproduce the glory of the Li family in Liao Town.

"Absurd, absurd, there is no trace of feasibility in this. The current military supply reserves are in danger of running out of food at any time after crossing the Datong River. There is a risk of running out of food, the morale of the army is fluctuating, and fighting a stronger enemy, isn't this a dead end?"

According to the rules of the Li family, Li Yi who came to pass the order was actually representing Li Chengliang, and the attitude of Li's nephew was to show his attitude towards Li Chengliang, but Li Rusong was so angry that he threw the tea bowl in front of Li Yi.

"Eldest young master, you have to understand the painstaking efforts of the master. He is still a Marquis now, extremely wealthy. What is he trying to do? It's not because of the young masters and the Li family. Although Li Yi has been in charge of the house for many years, But I also understand the art of war, and the current situation is indeed a great opportunity!"

Hearing this, Li Rusong exploded immediately, and took a few steps forward to grab Li Yi's collar. Li Rubai and Li Rumei hugged Li Rusong quickly, but Li Yi knelt down on the ground calmly, but groped Li Yi from his boots. With a dagger drawn, Li Ning and Li Sanshi also drew the dagger after seeing it, but unexpectedly, Li Yi aimed the dagger at his throat, and said in a deep voice:

"Eldest Young Master, Li Yi's words are not out of selfishness, nor is he talking too much. If Eldest Young Master doesn't believe it, please give me some instructions, and Li Yi will end it on his own."

Li Rusong struggled a few times, but couldn't escape his brother's pull, and when he heard Li Yi's calm words, he lost his strength all of a sudden, was dragged back by Li Rubai, stood there and said weakly:
"Take these words back and tell your father-in-law. He has been in the army for so many years and knows the danger. We still have two general soldiers and a few lieutenants in our family. You should be content. If you rush forward, you will lose your old foundation. Now that we are here, what else can our Li family do, and think about the wealth and honor of the past, I'm afraid we can't even maintain it now!"

Speaking of this, Li Rusong was not in a hurry anymore, and his discouraged attitude made the others speechless. Li Rubai and Li Rumei both let go of their hands. Li Rusong glanced at his two brothers, and said in a deep voice:

"The morals of the world have changed. We can no longer act in the old way. Now we just do what we have to do, and we will not care about it until we understand it."

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became heavy, Li Yi also put down the knife and stood up silently, hesitated for a while and said:
"Young master, didn't the Japanese pirates go unnoticed? The capital will be beheaded almost ten thousand times."

"In the tens of thousands of heads, the Japanese pirates are either inexperienced or know how to fight. We haven't figured out our details yet, but when they retreat, it will be very difficult. The resilience of the Japanese pirate army is probably stronger than that of the Tartars. Many, hard to fight, hard to fight, not to mention that there are so many Japanese pirates than us!"

Li Rusong spoke cautiously, but Li Yi couldn't believe it. He looked at Li Rubai and Li Rumei impolitely, and saw that neither of them showed any objection.
Li Yi had to believe it if he didn't believe it. This time he came with the brigade, and there were also interpreters who could understand Japanese, and the interrogation of the Japanese pirate prisoners also yielded results quickly.

On the east side of Pyongan-do, Ningan-do (Hamgyong-do) has 3000 Japanese pirates in the second army, and Hwanghae-do and Gangwon-do each have 5000 Japanese pirates in the third and fourth army. Legion, there are almost [-] Japanese pirates around the Li family, and there are great victories here and there, clearly critical.

Li Yi recorded these situations in detail, and arranged for people to send them back to Liaoyang quickly. In such a situation, I still ask the master Li Chengliang to consider it, and he will not push too much if he thinks about it.
