Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 683 : Chapter 272 Handsome Account

At the end of this Yang Dusi's speech, his voice trembled and he was crying, obviously feeling ashamed that he had not completed the task.

"It's not your fault."

Lu Xiangsheng said in a deep voice: "I asked the governor of Baoding for food, and in the end I got 2000 taels of silver. You are a superintendent, and people are willing to talk to you, which is not bad."

"Yes, I will retire at the end."

Lu Xiangsheng became the commander-in-chief of the first army, so he shouldn't have complained so openly, but his army went all the way south from Tongzhou, and fought with the Tazi rangers many times. Among the Ming army, he and the Qing army had the closest bite. [

As a result, Gao Qiqian was in trouble with him and refused to provide him with military rations. The local officials also followed suit. Seeing that Lu Xiangsheng was against the emperor and offended too many people, they did not dare to provide him with military rations. , Down to the state and county officials, when Xuan Dajun adjusts food, in short, they just don't give it.

Those who are perfunctory will give back one or two thousand silver for military supplies, but now in times of war, the people are fleeing, and the merchants are even missing. Who can I turn to buy food if I have silver?

In desperation, Lu Xiangsheng could only relax military discipline, and sometimes let the soldiers go to grab food, and it was inevitable that there would be murder, rape and looting when they robbed food. As a result, the news spread, and the people dared not approach the officers and soldiers. , All the towns and villages fled. As a result, the supply of military supplies was even worse, which has become a vicious circle.

At this point, the military rations were completely consumed, and the soldiers were already hungry. As a result, the civil and military officials who went around to adjust the rations were still bumped up everywhere, and none of them succeeded in transferring the rations.

Under such circumstances, Lu Xiangsheng didn't scold his mother because he was a civil servant, and his self-cultivation was beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Lu Xiangsheng doesn't scold his mother, but it doesn't mean those generals don't scold.

Yang Guozhu and Hu Dawei are already the commander-in-chief, and Yang Guozhu is still the commander-in-chief of the plus general. He has enough qualifications, so he immediately yelled at the officials of the surrounding states and counties.

They scolded Ge Laoshangshu and eunuchs, and they scolded the county magistrates, but no one dared to say anything.

Now that the entire army is out of food, they have been eating wild vegetables and porridge with miscellaneous grains for several days, and if they delay, they will not even be able to eat porridge with miscellaneous grains and wild vegetables.The war horses are already thin and bony, and if this continues, there will be no way for hunchbacks to fight, and they will die in large numbers.

The consequences of this are of course serious, but everyone knows that it is difficult to get Lu Xiangsheng's consent to persuade Lu Xiangsheng to retreat or take refuge in a place with food for a while.

Sure enough, after everyone scolded for a while, Lu Xiangsheng's tone was very tired, but he also said very firmly: "For food, this Fuyuan will continue to find a way. All generals, follow this Fuyuan to patrol the camp to appease the soldiers."

"Yes, I would like to follow Master Taiwan."

The generals had a helpless tone, but they could only agree.

This is the Xuan Dajun, if you change Liao Town, not to mention no food, no salary, the whole town will make a fuss, the generals will have no way to restrain them, even the governor and governor will be powerless.

It is not uncommon in Daming that the governor committed suicide because of soldiers' disputes about pay.

At this time, Xuan Dajun not only has no pay, but also no food, the morale of the army can be maintained, and the generals can still obey orders, which is really rare.

Seeing that Lu Xiangsheng was about to leave, Zhang Yan hurriedly stepped forward, knelt down and reported the arrival of the soldiers from Fushan.

Lu Xiangsheng was very surprised, and after a sign, he said: "The officials in Jiaozhou have intentions."
