Li Rusong and Li Rubai sat in the tent, frowning.

It's already night now.

The two picked up the spirits brought from Liaodong and drank them one by one.

"If I am discussing peace, I am really unwilling to withdraw my troops now. That would be a failure! The blood of the soldiers in front would be in vain." Li Rubai said in a hatred.

"What's the solution? The civil servants above want to make peace, maybe the emperor also said that."

"The emperor is afraid that the civil servants below..." Speaking of this, Li Rubai lowered his voice, "I was deliberately deceived by the Governor. When he entered the court, the emperor had hoped that the two of us brothers would be good! How could he suddenly change his mind and withdraw his troops?"

"The holy intention is hard to predict!" Li Rusong sighed.

Li Rubai smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, do you think we look like Yue Wumu now? We can obviously win, but the twelve gold medals in the court urge us to return to the army, and that treacherous minister is... the governor!"

Li Rusong said: "Don't say this again."

Just as he was about to speak, a battalion soldier suddenly entered and said, "Korean Minister Lee Dexin asked to see two adults!"

"It's so late, what are Li Dexin doing?"

"Please come in," Li Rusong said.

He had a good impression of Li Dexin and was a loyal minister. When he retreated from Kaicheng, it was him and Liu Chenglong who held their reins and begged to ask Li Rusong not to withdraw his troops.

However, at that time, the Ming army was not well fed, so Li Rusong had to retreat with his heart and leave, which made him very sad.

Soon after, Li Dexin entered the tent and saw the two of them, immediately said, "You two sirs know that the reinforcements from the court are about to arrive."

Li Rusong nodded and said, "It's about five days later."

"Five days?" Li Dexin opened her eyes wide, "Is this what the Governor told you?"

"how?"

"The ship from Dengzhou will arrive tomorrow!"

"So fast!"

Li Rusong and Li Rubai both showed joy on their faces.

"Don't be happy, Lord Admiral, there is a new manager who comes with the ship! The Governor deliberately did not tell the Admiral the date of the ship. How dare you ask what this is?"

Li Rusong's eyes sterned when he heard this and pressed his hand on the sword!

"Brother!" Li Rubai persuaded in panic.

Li Rusong breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand, "I originally thought that reinforcements and food will come to an end, and defeat the Japanese pirates in one battle and make a great contribution. But the sword is not good, and the horse is exhausted, and the sky will not fulfill my wish. Since Song Duxian wants to sue me in front of the new manager, let him go. My heart is Li Rusong, who can shine on the sun and the moon, and I feel ashamed of it!"

After saying that, Li Rusong waved his cloak and said, "Thank you, Li remembers this in his heart."

Li Dexin cried and said, "I heard that the new Master Ren Jingluo had a long time ago to say peace! It seems that the state affairs are no longer restored, and hundreds of thousands of people in North Korea died in vain because of the Japanese sword."

Li Rubai slammed heavily and scolded: "The country's affairs are all bad on these civil servants!"

Pi Island is also known as Pi Island. It is a tripod with Zhanzidao on the Yalu River and the Kashima Island. The sea route from Dengzhou to Pi Island and then to Xuanchuanpu is said to be opened by Yang Pu, the general of the Lou Ship during the Han Dynasty.

When Emperor Wu of Han attacked the Wei clan North Korea, Yang Pu led the navy from Dengzhou to cross the sea to attack the capital of North Korea. However, the battle was defeated. Later, the Han Dynasty still established four Han counties in North Korea, and today's Pyongyang is also under the jurisdiction.

When Lin Yanchao arrived at Xuanchuanpu, he boarded Pi Island and inspected it to see if there was a way to be a place for the reclaiming troops in the future.

But the island of Pi Island is very deserted and basically uninhabited. It turns out that North Korea is used for grazing, but it has become deserted over time.

If Mao Wenlong had not had such a deserted island, it would be unimaginable that he could have stayed here.

Lin Yanchao boarded the ship again from Pi Island, and the grain ship was docking in Xuanchuanpu.

He took a boat to Sunshapo and saw the Korean navy's sea guards from afar, but they were all small near-sea boats without large ships. The Korean navy's large ships were all in Jeolla and among the two navy leaders of Shangqing, and of course Lee Sun-sen was also here.

When Lin Yanchao's boat approached the shore, he saw a ship under the banner of the Korean Navy coming to greet him, with the banner of the Xuanshapu envoy.

Mei Kan smiled and said, "North Korean local officials are very polite."

Lin Yanchao said: "I heard that North Korea has always admired our country's culture for a long time, and has always served as a big country with a small country. Now I am begging us again, so of course the etiquette will come."

Mei Kanze said: "I think it's not only that, but also the literary name of Master Jinglei. I once heard the North Korean maritime merchants selling said that everyone in North Korea knows the name of Master Jinglei's three Yuan, and Master's articles are a must-read for two nobles in North Korea."

Lin Yanchao smiled slightly when he heard this, and Chen Jichuan said, "That's of course. When the master was still in the Hanlin Academy, the Korean envoy went to the palace to tell the emperor about this matter in person, which gave us a lot of face to our Ming Dynasty and our emperor."

Lin Yanchao glanced at Chen Jichuan and said, "No need to mention the past matters, I think they have urgent military information to report it."

However, the ship gradually got closer, but it was seen that the deck of the ship was not a North Korean official, but an official wearing the Ming Dynasty uniform. Lin Yanchao looked closely and saw that this person was the one who had previously sent to serve in the military of the Conquest Dynasty.

When the other party saw Lin Yanchao standing at the bow of the boat, he immediately bowed to salute far away.

After the ship approached, the sailor threw out the rod and leaned the two ships together. The North Korean ship took out a ladder for the other party to board Lin Yanchao's ship.

Yu Shilian saluted Lin Yanchao again, and Lin Yanchao held him and asked, "Why don't you see him on the shore and have to board the ship?"

Yu Shilian said: "The lower official came to visit Master Jinglei first according to the order of Du Xian!"

Lin Yanchao said: "Oh? Where is Song Duxian?"

"In Yizhou!"

Song Yingchang was not with either the King of North Korea or the King of Kwang Haijun, which made Lin Yanchao feel a little strange.

Lin Yanchao knew that things were not that simple, so he said, "Follow me to the cabin to speak!"

So Yu Shilian entered Lin Yanchao's cabin.

"What's the situation in North Korea now?" Lin Yanchao asked immediately.

"Why is it hard to describe, or is there any hidden secret?"

Yu Shilian said: "Reporting to my teacher, it's hard to say, but in fact it's all the end of the road!"

"The end of the road!"

Lin Yanchao almost took a breath. How could the situation in North Korea worsen to such an extent? This is clearly wrong.

“Speak from the beginning.”

Yu Shilian said: "Students start with the Battle of Pyongyang. At that time, the Southern Army and the Northern Army fought for merit. It was all because before the city was broken, Admiral Li said that he would not judge the battle of the city by breaking the city, so the Southern Army did not cut off the head after the death battle. However, the Northern Army later cut off the head. When Admiral Li gave up the title of the head, he made a re-propose of the title of the head, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the soldiers of the Southern Army!"

"Although there was a discord between the two sides, they did not break up after all. Later, Admiral Li put in the southern army and led the light cavalry to attack the Bitiguan. The southern army said that the northern army was light soldiers and advanced rashly, and the northern army said that the southern army was ineffective in rescue, and there was another major conflict between the two sides."

"At that time, Song Duxian helped the Southern Army say a few words, and he intends to divide the military achievements into the Southern Army more. As a result, this incident aroused the dissatisfaction of Admiral Li..."

Lin Yanchao reached out and said, "Are you going to sue Admiral Li first by Song Yixian's order?"

Yu Shilian quickly knelt down and said tremblingly: "Students dare not! The student was just in the curtain at that time and told his teacher everything he saw and heard. There was no false statement in this, so please let the teacher know clearly!"

Lin Yanchao paced for a moment, then helped Yu Shilian up and said, "How could I not trust you? If I didn't believe you, I wouldn't recommend you to work under Song Duxian."

"Student, thank you teacher!" Seeing Lin Yanchao's gentle words and comforting, Yu Shilian's eyes were already wet.

"Apart from Admiral Li, do you have anything else to say? I heard that Chen Weijing went to Seoul again to negotiate with the Japanese?"

Yu Shilian lowered his head and said, "Reporting to his mentor, Chen Weijing was ordered by the Minister of War Shi Dasima to negotiate with the Japanese. The specific matters did not pass through Song Duxian, and Duxian did not dare to ask about the matter of Dasima."

Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "You are doing this very well, so what does Song Duxian mean is to negotiate or fight?"

Yu Shilian said: "Du Xian originally wanted to defeat him in one battle, but now it seems that there is a possibility of delaying the deadlock, so I am afraid that there will be more plans to negotiate in my heart. However, Du Xian did not talk to us, nor did he tell us in the army, and it seems that he is still a bit steadfast."

"What about Admiral Lee?"

Yu Shilian said: "This is what students are worried about. Since Admiral Li entered the country, the monarchs and ministers of the North Koreans regarded the admiral as their own people. The superiors and subordinates were generous. Officials gave gifts and poems many times. I hope the admiral could expel Japanese pirates in one battle."

"The admiral is inevitably a little too dedicated to North Korea. The idea of ​​the king and ministers of the Korean king and minister is to use the national strength of our Ming Dynasty to expel Japanese pirates in one battle. It is understandable to think so. But the current situation of the court cannot delay the war? If you cannot win, this battle will probably last for a long time."

Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "I understand, so Admiral Li is the main war, right?"

“This is the case in the opinion of students.”

Lin Yanchao said: "No matter what, whether it is war or punctuality and the formulation of strategies lies in the court. Do Xian and the Admiral should not be involved in this matter!"

"Then the student dares to ask, what is the teacher's claim to come to North Korea?"

Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "Don't be busy talking about this in advance. I think Admiral Li and Du Xian are incompatible, and the northern and southern soldiers are incompatible, and the food and grass are not enough, which leads to the current situation of ending."

“That’s exactly that.”

Lin Yanchao nodded. It seemed that it was difficult to deal with him in the North Korea this time. The generals and the army were also disagreeable. In this way, it was indeed a bit troublesome to fight.

So Lin Yanchao landed in Xuanshapu. As soon as he arrived on the shore, he saw a North Korean official waiting there.

This official was Li Dexin. After he learned the news from Li Rusong's military tent, he rode his horse all night long to Xuanshapu.

When he saw Lin Yanchao's boat slowly docking, he immediately made up his mind. No matter what, he would persuade Lin Yanchao and change his idea of ​​conferring tribute and seeking peace.

As long as he can agree with this matter, then North Korea's eight ways of recovery is expected! The country will be preserved.
