Not to mention how many nights Zhong Jinwei returned to the barracks, let's just talk about Denglai Governor Lu Xiangsheng's side.He had just sent the envoys of the King of Korea back to the station. This was the second batch of envoys who came to Denglai after the sea thawed, and it was only a day behind the previous one.

Lu Xiangsheng knew that North Korea was waiting for him to send troops to take Busan, and he was in a hurry.

There was an excuse before, because of the weather, even if I wanted to accept Busan, there was nothing I could do.Now that the weather is improving, Lu Xiangsheng didn't think about delaying it any longer according to the court's intention.

It's not that I'm worried about the disaster victims in North Korea, but that the vassal king's feudal North America must be accelerated.As the first large-scale supply point at sea, Busan must start construction immediately.

He originally thought of going to Busan in person, after all, there might be many problems when the handover was first handed over.If he went in person, he could make up his mind on the spot.

However, before Lu Xiangsheng's idea was implemented, the imperial court's decree came, and the decisive battle in Liaodong officially began.

This time, Lu Xiangsheng could only be busy with the Liaodong War, and the trip to Busan was delegated to his subordinates.Anyway, according to the intention of the imperial court, going to Busan is a central idea, and the construction of the supply point should be started quickly.

Of course, the Ming army, craftsmen and some civilians going to Busan cannot go forward for the time being, because all the ships are only used to transport the Denglai Ming army to land in Liaodong.

Lu Xiangsheng immediately arranged for the clippers to go to various islands to send orders, and asked them to gather on the two big islands, Zhangzi Island and Pi Island, to stand by.

Then he personally greeted Dengzhou City, and received the arms delivered by the capital outside the city.In this battle, the key to success or failure lies in these munitions.Speaking of it, although the firearms unit is more powerful, it also relies more on logistics.

For [-] flintlock guns, the ammunition required is also massive.If there is no ammunition, it is better to use a simple long gun.

There was another important reason why Lu Xiangsheng wanted to welcome them out in person. He asked the escort officer, "Have you brought the ammunition for the Flang cannon?"

"Back to Zhongcheng, Marquis Zhongxing has already explained, how dare I forget not to send it away." The escort officer replied with a smile.

Then he specially lured Lu Xiangsheng to a car in the middle, and opened it for Lu Xiangsheng to inspect it himself.

Lu Xiangsheng looked at the Frangler ammunition on the car like a treasure, and was extremely satisfied.

Back then, he followed Marquis Zhongxing into the hinterland of Jianlu, overturned rivers and seas in the hinterland of Jianlu, and did whatever he wanted, relying on the advantages of firearms, among which artillery played the most important role.

Therefore, Lu Xiangsheng ordered the flintlock soldiers to go to retrieve the Franco cannon buried during the last retreat as soon as they had field combat effectiveness.

When he reported the military situation to the imperial court years ago, he wrote a special letter and mentioned this to Zhongxinghou.He knew that others might not take it seriously.But Zhongxing Hou, who is the most proficient in using artillery in Ming Dynasty, will never forget his request.

Unexpectedly, Zhongxing Hou not only did not forget, but also had another surprise for him.The escort officer introduced two other sergeants to Lu Xiangsheng and said: "Zhongcheng, these two are excellent gunners of the Flang machine field artillery in the Beijing camp. Cheng's command."

When Lu Xiangsheng heard this, he was in a good mood again.I didn't pay attention to this point myself, but Hou Zhongxing helped me to consider it.He immediately warmly welcomed the two gunners, treating them like treasures.

That night, Lu Xiangsheng heard from the North Korean envoy who was waiting for the news at the post station, and said to the two North Korean envoys who arrived in Dengzhou one after the other: "Tomorrow morning, our army will go to the Liaodong battlefield and fight to the death with Jianlu. It is necessary to transfer the army to the Liaodong battlefield, so to go to Busan to accept the matter, we have to wait for the ship to arrive in Liaodong before returning."

The two North Korean envoys had already been shocked by the movement of the Ming army in Denglai City and the movement of the army to prepare for war. They could guess that the Ming army had started to make big moves.

So Lu Xiangsheng said that they were not surprised.Moreover, the two of them have already discussed it.As soon as Lu Xiangsheng finished speaking, one of the envoys asked Lu Xiangsheng: "Zhongcheng, if the country sends a navy to pick up your country's personnel and go to Busan to accept them, do you think it is okay?"

Lu Xiangsheng was taken aback when he heard this, and then he was overjoyed immediately.In this way, the Liaodong War will not delay the progress of the vassal king's feudal North America.But although Lu Xiangsheng agreed in his heart, he didn't show it on his face.

He pondered for a while before saying to the North Korean envoy: "It's not impossible, but on the one hand, there will be more people going to Busan, and on the other hand, the people from Busan may have to be transported back to Denglai. Quite a few, I think it's better to wait for Shuiying to return."

"There is no need for Zhongcheng to worry too much. Although our army in North Korea is not good, we still have a lot of navy divisions. Besides, this is not a war, it is just transporting personnel. Therefore, Zhongcheng has as many ships as he wants, and it doesn't matter how long it takes. Inform me and the king will do it." The North Korean envoy replied quickly, fearing further delay.

After hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng no longer hesitated, and immediately nodded in agreement.He sent the men in charge of building the supply point in Busan, and asked him to discuss with the North Korean envoy, and then set off for Busan after the King of North Korea sent a navy.

Lu Xiangsheng himself still left for Phi Island according to the original plan.After all, the date requested by Marquis Zhongxing has been fixed, and Lu Xiangsheng dare not delay the military situation.

In this decisive battle, Denglai will naturally not hold back. With an army of nearly 3, [-] were dispatched at once.Among them were a thousand fusiliers from the Beijing battalion and ten thousand Denglai's own fusiliers.With this part as the main force, the army on the right side of the decisive battle in Liaodong, known as [-], was formed to conquer Jianlu.

The nearby troops had already been mobilized overnight, and all of them were on standby at the pier.Just after dawn, the army began to board the ship and sail away from the terminal of Dengzhou City.

Watching the mighty fleet leave the dock and disappear into the sea.The people of Dengzhou City who came to see him off prayed silently in their hearts, hoping that Lu Zhongcheng's army would return in triumph.

When Lu Xiangsheng reached Phi Island, the generals on the island met him on the pier.

It's finally Armageddon and everyone is excited.Among them, the most active ones were not the former soldiers of Dongjiang Town who had a blood feud with Jianlu, but the Fourth Elementary School sent by Zhong Jinwei to practice.

Although they rushed to express their willingness to be pioneers to Lu Xiangsheng, Lu Xiangsheng really didn't dare to let them be pioneers.Even though the four of them had shown unusual military talents during their training, they were the nephews of Marquis Zhongxing after all, and if there were any accidents, they couldn't explain it.

In the end, it was decided to take Cao Bianjiao as the vanguard officer and lead the four primary schools to open the way for the army.

The lowest goal of this war is to recover Shenyang, so the three armies all marched with Shenyang as the goal.And Denglai is the farthest from Shenyang, so it is the first to set off.

Their first battle will be Zhenjiang Fort at the mouth of the Yalu River.
