    The staff members had never seen Governor Yang so angry, they hurriedly agreed, and each went down to write military orders and memorials. Seeing that Yang Ling was still angry and his face was livid, Bai Chongzan hurriedly coughed, and changed the subject: "My lord, Jiangnan Fu  In the world, looting a village here is better than looting a county in other prefectures. From the distribution of Japanese pirates, their focus is also on Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

    Therefore, the lower officials think that troops from Sichuan, Shandong, Hunan, and Hubei can be transferred into the south of the Yangtze River to cooperate with the suppression of bandits. Most of the soldiers in the above areas are also familiar with the landforms of the south of the Yangtze River, and their tactics are also similar. What do you think?  "

    Cheng Qiyun looked at Yang Ling's haggard face with pity, and interjected, "Your Excellency, do you want to transfer troops to Jiangnan?"

    Yang Ling sat back on the handsome chair wearily, nodded heavily, and sighed: "Most of the soldiers in the south of the Yangtze River are not good at fighting, and they can't train new recruits at this time. They only rely on the current strength to defend various places, and they want to kill the Japanese pirates who roam around without any scruples.  Easier said than done? So I want to deploy troops to help suppress the bandits."

    Cheng Qiyun doesn't want to put a burden on Yang Ling anymore, but military supplies and military pay are the key issues. She has always been in charge of this aspect of affairs. Now that Yang Ling wants to transfer troops to the south of the Yangtze River, some things will delay the military plane if he doesn't explain it.

    She hesitated, and finally said in a low voice: "My lord, the imperial court can no longer afford the huge military expenses. You know, from last year to now, the imperial court's money Jiangnan is no match for the frontier army, the border army  The military pay is already cheap, but the above-mentioned provinces are mostly guard soldiers, so the military pay is already high, and there are additional subsidies in wartime, this military expenditure ?¡­¡±.

    Yang Ling listened in a daze, smiled wryly, shook his head and said, "If you're not in charge, you don't know how expensive things are, alas! Why do so many things come together? If you give me a few years, it only takes three years  In three years, the situation of the imperial court must be very different. Now ".

    He gritted his teeth: "No matter what, we have to get through it! But military expenses military expenses", he stood up and walked slowly.

    Without military pay, shouting a few slogans that everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country, that soldiers should protect their homes and defend the country, and the peace of the country, and analyze the principles of military and civilian fish and water, and solidarity, will not work for the current army. How can they have that awareness?  Ah, the soldier also has a family to support. He can¡¯t eat enough for himself and his family has no food to eat. It¡¯s no wonder that you are willing to work hard for you.

    Seeing Yang Ling's worried face, Cheng Qiyun said, "My lord, the current war situation is tense. If it drags on, Jiangnan's industry, commerce and even agriculture will be greatly damaged, so the soldiers must be transferred. However, in order to save military pay, the humble official thought it would be okay."  The number of officers and soldiers in the guards will be reduced, and it is not yet known what the combat effectiveness of the officers and soldiers of the guards in various places will be."

    Yang Ling laughed and said: "If you don't transfer the soldiers from the guard station, what are you going to transfer? Transferring the Minzhuang? Impossible, they are willing to leave their hometown, it is extremely difficult to dispatch, and the Minzhuang is not an army, and they have no responsibility to defend other places. They don't have this awareness  of".

    Cheng Qiyun shook her head and said: "My lord, I don't mean the strength of the people, nor the officers and soldiers. The combat power of these soldiers is definitely higher than that of the officers and soldiers, and the military expenditure is extremely low, as long as they have enough food."

    Yang Ling asked suspiciously: "What soldiers? Has there been progress at sea?"

    Cheng Qiyun smiled and said: "No, it's wolf soldiers! Your lord can recruit wolf soldiers from Miao, Zhuang, and Tujia tribes. They have a tough folk style, are used to fighting in mountains, jungles, and water, and all of them are born hunters."  Well, guerrilla ambushes are ingenious, and the deployment of these local soldiers can reduce the number of officers and soldiers to be recruited, what do you think?"

    Yang Ling said happily: "That's right, it's a good idea, but even so, can our existing military expenditure be sufficient?"

    Cheng Qiyun said calmly: "Not enough, far from enough!"

    "However" She hesitated for a moment, and said: "My lord, the solution is someone's idea. Can you allow me some time, my lord? I will definitely have a way to solve this problem."

    Yang Ling stared at her for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "Okay! My daughter Zhuge has never let me down, this time I believe you will definitely find a way, then I will go to the court first and ask for mediation  Soldiers, you put down other affairs first, and focus on solving the problem of military supplies and military pay!"

    Cheng Qiyun smiled, clasped her fists and said: "The humble official obeys the order, once the adults say this, the humble official puts all his energy into thinking, and racks his brains and dare not disappoint the adults."

    Zhengde absolutely supported Yang Ling. He really couldn't afford the money, so he didn't hesitate to transfer troops.  The south of the Yangtze River is the foundation of the imperial court. Now the Japanese pirates are making trouble everywhere, which will endanger the imperial court in the long run. This point is known to the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, so no minister dares to raise objections at this time.

    As soon as Yang Ling's memorial was reported to the court, it was approved almost immediately.??All the materials needed to be looted from Daming, so this time the Japanese pirates broke the boat and attacked far more than before.  Although there are only less than 20,000 real Japanese, there are several times more fake Japanese who belong to the Japanese and feel sorry for the tiger. Therefore, the total strength of the Japanese pirates has reached more than 60,000. Fortunately, although these Japanese pirates are brave, they do not have a unified  Command and leader.

    This group of Japanese pirates is the most powerful of the Japanese pirates. The leader is Nomi Masatoshi, the leader of the Nami family who has been a pirate for generations.  On the shore, go straight to the big city and big port.

    He already knew through careful work that Suzhou had the governors of the six provinces and Jiangnan Dao commanders sent by the Ming Dynasty to take command, and there were 30,000 officers and soldiers guarding the city of Suzhou, but based on his past experience, he didn't feel that this Ming army was scary at all.  Based on his experience, to deal with the officers and soldiers of the Jiangnan Guards, his 1,000 troops are enough to deal with 10,000 officers and soldiers.

    Naimi Masachi thinks very far-sightedly. Japan can¡¯t go back for the time being. It¡¯s not a long-term solution to always go ashore to plunder. There are many gentry in Suzhou for generations, all of whom are rich and invincible.  His wealth can be used to buy countless warships, and he has become the overlord of all Japanese pirates and pirates, and has traveled across the sea ever since.

    With this consideration, Nai Meizheng Zhicai decisively decided to lead the army to rush forward, turning a blind eye to the small towns and counties along the way, and rushed all the way to Wujiang City, using this as a base to attract the Ming army to help, first wipe out the reinforcements, and then take Suzhou.

    The drums were rumbling, and the Japanese rushed up again shouting.  The Japanese respected authority, and under the command of the commander, they did not think much about whether to fight or retreat, and the fake Japanese who followed were also desperate and bloodthirsty pirates.  Shields, guarding a group of soldiers carrying huge beams as siege logs to attack the city gate.

    Several Japanese leaders wearing horned iron helmets and ghost masks jumped up and down, directing the attack of the Japanese pirates.

    At this time, on the official road one mile outside the west city, the horses whose legs were broken by the horse trap and the tripping rope were groaning on the ground.  Weird smile.

    Several other Japanese pirates took off the clothes of the dead officers and soldiers, put them on one by one, and walked to his side brazenly. A Japanese pirate smiled at Liu Qian in Wujiang local dialect: "It turns out that you are a general, may I ask?"  Give Zong Gao his last name?"
