Chapter 90: Stabilizing North Korea (1)
With the military order of the General Staff Office, it marked the beginning of the Ming Dynasty to interfere in Korean politics by force.
Since ancient times, soldiers and horses have not moved grain and grass first, and the military logistics of Liaodong territory have all relied on the supply of the imperial court, and a large number of arrows and gunpowder have been loaded into ships, leaving the mouth of the Yangtze River, and beginning to go north to the Bohai Sea.
Fortunately, due to the existence of the Liaodong Weaving Bureau, the grain and grass reserves in the eastern Liaodong territory are sufficient, but a large amount of expenses have been saved.
Liaodong General Officer Ping'an summoned the generals of Liaodong to his tent as soon as he received the military order.
"Oracle!"
As soon as Ping An spoke, everyone stood up in unison and bowed to Ping An and clenched their fists.
"Chief of General Staff and Yan Wangdi signed a military order, and I immediately raised troops to help Li Fangguo, the king of Korea, stabilize the situation in Korea and eliminate Li Fangyuan's rebel army.
In order to prevent the Tatar troops from invading Liaodong when our troops were out of Korea, the general only brought 30,000 men, 20,000 new troops and 10,000 Jurchen cavalry, and the remaining 30,000 people guarded Liaoyang with Zeng Bin, the deputy commander-in-chief. ”
"Command!"
All the generals responded, and then left the tent with their own duties.
"Li Poyu!"
The captain of Ping'an's personal soldiers heard the shouting and hurriedly ran in from outside the tent, "I am here." ”
"Take my military order, and quickly summon Aha and Mengge Timur to come with the soldiers of their tribes."
The three Jurchens, with the Jianzhou Jurchen as the strongest, the reason is that the Jianzhou Jurchen is closest to the Liaodong Guard, unlike the other two are active in the area from Changbai Mountain to Xing'an Mountains, naturally, the Jianzhou Jurchen closest to the Bohai Sea is also the fastest to reproduce, from nomadic to fishing and hunting, they can be described as having a taste to survive in the Bohai Sea area, plus the protection of the Liaodong Wei, there is no need to worry about being harassed by the old enemy Habe.
After Zhu Di's rebellion was successful, he remembered the friendship of the Jianzhou Jurchens who followed him to fight the Northern Yuan Dynasty, set up Jianzhou Wei, and the Jianzhou Jurchens were merged, Ahachu was given the surname Li, and the Mengge Timur was given the surname Tong.
"Yes."
The big tent was empty and only Ping'an was left, and the latter took out another letter from his bosom, which was a handwritten letter from Zhu Yunwen!
It wasn't until every word on the letter was engraved in his mind that Ping An put the letter on the candlestick and burned it.
In the inner part of the house, the big tent of the fierce brother Timur.
"Brother Meng, there is a military envoy from Liaoyang."
Brother Meng's Timur was sitting upright at this time, holding a book of Spring and Autumn and was fascinated, and when he heard this, he hurriedly put down the book and got up, "Please." ”
As he spoke, he carefully tidied up his outfit.
The big tent was opened, the sunlight poured in, Li Poyu entered with his head held high, and his brother Timur hurriedly greeted him, and bowed with his hand on his chest, "I have seen the military envoy." ”
Li Poyu snorted arrogantly, "Brother Meng, my Majesty the Ming Emperor has an edict. ”
Brother Meng's face turned white with fright, and he knelt down on his knees and buried his face in the soil, "Slave Brother Meng, Timur, listens to the emperor's oracle." ”
"North Korea is in turmoil, His Majesty the Emperor ordered General Ping, the chief military officer of Liaodong, to send troops to quell the rebellion, I heard that there are three Jurchens in Liaodong, brave and loyal in battle, special grace, transfer the three Jurchens as the vanguard, I am ordered by General Ping, and I will come to order some troops."
As he spoke, Li Poyu took the order from his waist and handed it to his brother Timur, who first kowtowed respectfully on the ground three times before taking it with both hands.
"Slaves will be smeared with liver and brain, and their bones will be broken to repay the kindness of His Majesty the Emperor."
For the Jianzhou Jurchens at this time, being able to get the Ming Dynasty's conscription to fight was an opportunity.
A chance for the Horde to rise!
Because Da Ming is the most powerful empire in the world in the eyes of the Jurchens, the invincible tyrant Yuan was wiped out in the hands of Da Ming, and the vultures who almost slaughtered the three Jurchen were also driven away by Da Ming.
As for the death of people in war?
Brother Meng, Timur, didn't care at all, the lives of the tribal athletes were not worth anything at all! It's not distressing to die in many places, why do the Jianzhou Jurchens reproduce faster than the Haixi and Savages?
It is because when he followed Zhu Di to fight the Northern Yuan Dynasty, he was the most fearless of death in the Jianzhou Department.
Only then did they plunder a large number of cattle, sheep and women, and women were the most valuable wealth of a weak tribe in infancy!
The Jianzhou Jurchens are not afraid of war, they are only afraid of not fighting! North Korea has a large population, as long as tens of thousands of women can be plundered this time, more than ten years later, the Jianzhou Jurchen can breed hundreds of thousands of young children!
"Well, speed point soldiers, I still have to go to the Huli Reform Department to find Aha out."
Seeing Li Poyu leaving, Brother Meng's Timur jumped up excitedly and shouted to his own soldiers, "Quickly go and gather the clansmen, all the men over the age of fourteen and under the age of fifty gather together, pick up sabers, bows and arrows, and let's go to the camp in Liaoyang." ”
The pro-soldier was a little hesitant, fighting for many years, where are the old people over fifty years old in the tribe, most of them are new men, and they are all recruited at this time, "Brother Meng, do you want to stay a little, what if after we leave, what if there is an enemy to invade in the future?" ”
Brother Meng Timur waved his hand, "We are in the hinterland of Liaodong, where did the enemy come from, besides, now the Tatars are busy trading with the Ming Dynasty, how dare they invade the Ming Dynasty?" Their courage has long been broken by Da Ming, don't be afraid, go quickly! ”
The soldier had no choice but to answer, turned and went out, and roared loudly on his horse, and a large number of bareback men came out of the tent, hurriedly put on their clothes, and began to search for weapons.
The same scene happened in the Huli Reform Department, Aha paced back and forth excitedly, looking up to the sky and laughing, "This is a great time for my Jurchen to rise!" ”
North Korea is too weak, they are far inferior to the weakened Northern Yuan, where will it be the opponent of the Ming Dynasty?
Aha Chu dreamed of moving his tribe to Korea, but Korea was a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and he did not dare to do so, because once he lost the protection of the Ming Dynasty, his tribe would be immediately eaten up by other tribes in this land.
But now it's different, his Jurchen athletes can enter North Korea in a grand manner, they can justifiably plunder North Korean women and food, as long as they kneel at the feet of the Ming people afterwards, they can prevaricate the past with a word of indoctrination, they fight bravely, they are the loyal minions of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty will not be willing to expel them.
"Savages and Hercynian are so stupid."
Aha looked in the direction of the Xing'an Mountains in the north and pouted disdainfully.
These two tribes are accustomed to hiding in the mountains like rats, sneaking around, caught between the water Tatars and the Ming people, where will they come out?
Only by using sabers and blood like our Jianzhou Jurchens can we exchange the future glory of the tribe!
Sooner or later, one day, my Jianzhou Jurchen will multiply and grow and unify the three departments!
