After the decree was announced, everyone in the Liao Dynasty's Duke's mansion knew it, and their reactions were different. The personal guards were extremely excited. They could fight on the battlefield and make achievements. This was a lifelong pursuit for enterprising warriors. When the personal guards were excited, Yang Sichen, the magistrate of Shanghai, placed someone to tell the personal guards to keep a low profile and not to create such a joyful atmosphere.

This is not about caring about other people's perceptions, but about the thoughts of these people in the Duke of Liao. Yang Sichen has been working with Wang Tong for a long time. Both sides are familiar with each other and there are many family members.

Yang Sichen naturally knew what the women around Wang Tong were thinking through his wife and concubines. They were not happy to see Wang Tong’s conscription, but it was true that they were worried and scared.

According to some official news, the women of the Duke of Liao also knew about it. The 200,000-strong army of Japanese pirates in Korea is so powerful and so powerful. They also know about it.

After getting together several news, I felt that the expedition was very dangerous and I didn’t worry. And seeing that the New Year was coming again, my own men were going to the north and could not return for a few months and half a year, and no one could stand it. If the guards were chatting and laughing excitedly outside at this time, this would add fuel to the fire.

It was almost the same as Yang Sichen expected. After the decree was announced, Wang Tong sent away the imperial envoy who had been announced and returned to the mansion, but his wives and concubines were all gathered together.

Wang Xia originally led Wang Zhong and Wang Lan to run around the house, but Han Xia scolded him a few words. Wang Xia was spoiled by Han Xia and rarely encountered such severe treatment. At that time, she was so scared that she cried. Song Chanchan comforted her softly and reminded the maids to take all the children out.

Wang Tongwei sat in the middle, looking at the expressions and attitudes of his wives and concubines, and was a little helpless. He had already received certain news before accepting the order. He thought he could look at it normally, but he did not expect that after the order was announced, Wang Tong himself felt that he was excited. The warriors were indeed inseparable from the battlefield. It was really boring for them to come.

Thinking about that life, I thought about myself in this life, Wang Tong was also a little moved. He was excited, but his wives and concubines were sitting next to him with their heads down, and Lu Ruomei and Zhang Hongying were still wiping their tears there. The atmosphere really made Wang Tong feel awkward.

"Why are you like this? Master, I'm not the first year I went out to Bingge. I didn't come back well. Don't cry anymore. I scared the child." In this situation, Wang Tong didn't know what it was. He smiled and said a few words. Song Chanchan naturally would not recognize the current situation and her own intervention. If she was afraid she would become the public enemy of the female family in the inner house. She just approached Han Xia and whispered a few words.

Han Xia then raised her head and whispered: "When you are going to North Korea, you must think that your wife and children at home should take care of your health and take care of it."

Later, my emotions were red, and my words were also filled with crying voices. The emotions of the women in the room were all triggered. The three who were originally pretending to be calm also sobbed.

"Oh, this is, you're here." Wang Tong didn't expect this pomp. After a few words, he didn't know what it was................ Since the decree has been announced, no matter how sad and reluctant the house in the Liao Duke's mansion is, Wang Tong has to lead troops to fight. Others are still preparing in Songjiang, but memorials are sent to the capital.

His early orders were found. The imperial court had already found the right. The general of Xuanfu Li Rusong led 4,000 elite troops to Liao Town to prepare for the war in Korea. Since Wang Tong had been appointed as the commander of the general of Xuanfu Li Rusong, the army led by the general of Xuanfu Li Rusong was included in Wang Tong's command and was counted as the vanguard army that entered the country in the early stage.

Wang Tong's expectations are similar to those of the big family. He gathers all towns in the Huwei Army system, but in fact, not all of them are drawn. The regiments that were originally scattered everywhere have now been expanded into three regiments or even four regiments. Wang Tong's request is to draw one regiment in each regiment, 50% of veterans and 50% of new recruits, led by the local imperial guards.

That is, the original seven regiments of the Imperial Army were led by the original regiment generals of each regiment, and the guerrillas and artillery guerrillas were naturally accompanied. However, Wang Tong's confidant came from the army, which was actually similar in scale to the time of Jianzhou during the Eastern Expedition.

However, Wang Tong was unable to lead his ten thousand troops to fight. In addition to the headquarters of the Imperial Army, he also asked that each town in Gansu and Liaoning, each town had 1,500 elite soldiers. Among them, three thousand cavalry were also needed, led by deputy general Ma, and five thousand infantry were sent in Ji Town, led by deputy general Yang Jin, and the imperial guards, in addition, the court also allowed the army to enter the court to recruit volunteers and brave men.

The imperial guards' horses, instigations, firearms and wheels weighed each team, with about 18,000 people, and the total number of troops in each border town is about 20,000. If the soldiers from the three towns in Liaoning are included, this is also a large army of about 110,000, which can be regarded as the largest scale of military troops used by the Ming Dynasty in recent years.

However, Wang Tong also made it clear in his order that the imperial guards and the troops from each town can be war soldiers. There are almost 20,000 war soldiers in the three towns in Liaoning. The rest can only be used as labor or follow the large team to strengthen their momentum. If they go to the battlefield to fight with real swords and guns, they may not be able to make any move.

In other words, the 110,000 troops can really fight about 60,000, so we have to recruit local charity teams to make up for it.

Wang Tong's office is a reality that everyone knows, and there is no objection to the big family. In addition, Wang Tong's other letters are also Wang Tong's letters. After the border town is changed, the border generals everywhere basically save the cavalry and soldiers in their hands, but the infantry has no attention. It is a pity that these elite infantry will be abandoned. The wandering places may become a disaster. I took this opportunity to digest them in the imperial guards and then be under the control of the imperial guards.

For this strategy, Emperor Wanli and Wang Xijue, the cabinet assistant, both awarding and decoration are the best strategy. In the end, you can successfully digest this power in the place without spending too much money and energy. The best thing is naturally the best strategy.

In addition to the military forces on the 6th, Wang Tong also made a special statement on the memorial that North Korea was facing the sea and Japanese pirates invaded from the sea, so the navy must be used.

This time, Wang Tong directly pointed out the general, and the Guangdong Navy Admiral Chen Zhen became a candidate, and there was no objection to this candidate, because in the Navy, Chen Zhen was now recognized as the first person in Ming Dynasty, and he had always proposed to set up a position to let Chen Zhen take charge of the Navy in the southeast of Ming Dynasty.

The court attaches great importance to Chen Zi, on the one hand, is that there is more and more sea trade and transportation this year, and it needs to ensure the safety of the sea. On the other hand, because Wang Tong is in the southeast and Wang Tong has a large fleet, it must have such a balance. Of course, the reason for the latter cannot be taken on the table.

However, the affirmation of Chen Zi was consistent. There were people waiting for Wang Tong to choose the 6th military service to submit a memorial to point out Wang Tong's omissions, and then recommended Chen Zi as the commander of the navy, but they did not expect that Wang Tong had already considered this.

There is no objection to this candidate. Wang Tong also made a special memorial. Chen Zi has now reorganized the Guangdong Navy and has also built many new ships. Therefore, this time, Chen Zi will lead a member of the Guangdong Navy to head north and dock in the area of ​​Laizhou Prefecture, Shandong, so it is more appropriate to join forces and fight in cooperation.

The memorial also understood that most of the pirates on the sea were with the Japanese pirates, and the Japanese pirates' naval forces would definitely be huge. In order to win safely, civilian ships should also be recruited to fight together. The so-called civilian ships, most of them know what kind of fleet Wang Tong was, that is his own fleet. It is a tradition for the generals of Ming Dynasty to lead private soldiers. Wang Tong is willing to lead his own fleet. Even this family can't pick up this family, and he also has to praise him and be loyal to the court.

6 In Shanghai, there are almost 130,000 troops. If the civilians and husbands are included, the number of 200,000 can be achieved. This number of troops is really amazing. How to support food and pay, how to set up military stations, and even how the Ministry of Revenue allocates silver has become a big problem.

What made the officials in the court jealous was that Wang Tong gave a strategy in the memorial, such as the food and money needed to be spent by the imperial guards and local concubines transferred from each border town were deducted from the local needs, because in today's border towns, most of the military households have been converted into private households, and the food and money needed to allocate by the court has been greatly reduced, but the reduction is still under calculation, and this time, the border town does not need to pay the money by itself. It is the end of the year and the beginning of the year. The Ministry of Revenue directly deducts the food and money allocated to each border town, and then put it on the dynasty.

As for the supply of grain and grass in various places, it was contracted by local merchants. The court allocated silver. They gathered transportation capacity and grass to set up military stations. The supply was provided along the way. The establishment of the base camp on the Yalu River was also based on this matter. The remaining expenses were made for special payments from the silver collected by Songjiang and Tianjin Wei.

Originally, the Ministry of Revenue and the Imperial Horse Prison had already called out. In such a large battle, the treasury might go bankrupt and there was no silver to spend in other places. However, after Wang Tong's memorial came up, the Ministry of Revenue and the Imperial Horse Prison accounted for it and could not change the treasury's silver if it followed Wang Tong's suggestion. Wang Tong's list of items was even surplus, which was really speechless.
