If it weren't for Yuan Chonghuan's arrogance and disobedience to his command because of Mao Wenlong's merits, he used the Shang Fang sword given to him by Emperor Chongzhen to kill Mao Wenlong and destroy the Great Wall, maybe the Ming Dynasty could resist the Houjin for a while longer, and it was after Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong that the situation in the Ming Dynasty against the Houjin began to deteriorate sharply, and finally the Houjin broke through and died, which also became Yuan Chonghuan's biggest historical stain and made him quite controversial.

So why did Guo Zhiyuan choose Dehe Islands instead of Phi Islands? (At this time, Mao Wenlong was still a garrison under Xiong Tingbi, and it was not until 1622 that Dongjiang Town was officially opened on Phi Island), first, because Phi Island belonged to the disputed border between the Ming Dynasty and Korea, Guo Zhiyuan did not want to give the Ming court the truth and make trouble for himself.

The second is because Phi Island is not very suitable for Tuntian, Mao Wenlong gathered nearly 100,000 soldiers and civilians on Phi Island, but he could not achieve self-sufficiency, and he still needed to be allocated by the imperial court, so he was stuck by Yuan Chonghuan's neck, which is also one of the reasons why the Dongjiang Army fell apart quickly after Mao Wenlong was killed.

The third is that Guo Zhiyuan didn't want to become the second Mao Wenlong, especially when he copied the back road of the Houjin army this time, but it did not change the outcome of the defeat of the Ming army, and even the loss of population and land in the Ming Dynasty was more and bigger than the original historical time and space, which made him realize the horror of historical inertia, so he decided not to change history as much as possible, and could only stand up at a critical time to save the fate of the nation.

Although the location of the Dehe Islands is not as important as Phi Island, Guo Zhiyuan can calmly lay out here and quietly strengthen his strength to ensure that he can stand up and turn the tide at the critical moment of the survival of the nation.

Without further ado, to get back to the point, Guanghaijun is not a glutinous rice ball that is completely at the mercy of others, as soon as he heard Guo Zhiyuan's words, his face changed greatly, and he said angrily: "Lord Guo is inevitably too deceitful!" Although my country is small, this king will never be a faint king who betrays the country and cuts the land! ……”

Guo Zhiyuan had already guessed that Guanghaijun would react like this, and said with a haha: "Why is Guanghaijun so excited, I am talking about borrowing, not asking you to cede the Dehe Islands to me, if you really feel at a loss, then I can rent it, I will pay you 5,000 taels of silver every year......"

Guanghaijun was not confused, and still said angrily: "What's the difference? How can the land be measured by silver, your so-called lease is just Liu Bei's rhetoric that he borrowed from Jingzhou and did not repay it! There is no way this king will agree! It is absolutely impossible for our Korean military and civilians to agree! ……”

Guo Zhiyuan saw that Guanghaijun did not enter the oil and salt, his eyes were completely cold, and he sneered: "Since this is the case, then I don't care, I will lead the army back to Dongfan, and I will stay in your territory in North Korea for more than 20,000 Houjin people, you can do it!" ......" said and really patted his ass and stood up and prepared to leave!

Gwanghae-jun was dumbfounded when he heard this, this is a population of more than 20,000 Houjin, can he stay in North Korea without causing trouble? Besides, Hou Jin knew that the Hou Jin population who was plundered by Guo Zhiyuan could not ask him for it in North Korea? The key is that he can't return these populations to Houjin, so that Daming should trouble him again, the results we finally achieved, you just returned them to Houjin, does this mean that North Korea betrayed Daming and completely fell to Houjin?

So Guanghaijun could only stop Guo Zhiyuan, and said with a wry smile: "Lord Guo, you have to be considerate of the difficulties of this king, I am a small country in North Korea, and even the Chinese and North Korean armies are difficult to resist the soldiers of the Houjin. ……”

Guo Zhiyuan was waiting for Guanghaijun's words, patted his chest and said: "This is easy to do, you lease the Dehe Islands to me, and I will leave another 10,000 Zixin troops to stay, and I usually ensure that the autumn does not commit any crimes, if Houjin dares to ask the teacher, I promise that they will not return!" ……”

Okay, originally it was said that it was only to lease the Dehe Islands to settle 20,000 Houjin people, and now there are 10,000 Zixin troops left, and there is such a strong combat force at the door of his own country, how can you let Guanghaijun feel at ease?

But Guanghaijun couldn't think of a better solution, so he could only smile bitterly: "The matter is serious, and I ask Lord Guo to let this king and the courtiers discuss it......"

Guo Zhiyuan also knew that he couldn't push too hard, so he smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll go back to the post house and wait for good news......

As soon as Guo Zhiyuan left, Guanghaijun discussed with the courtiers, Guo Zhiyuan is not completely without a mass base in North Korea, like Li Yuanyi, the leader of the government, Han Xiaochun, these ministers who are oriented to the Ming Dynasty still have a good impression of him, especially this time Guo Zhiyuan's lone army went deep to copy the back road of the Houjin army, which made them feel that although Guo Zhiyuan was a little arrogant, he was still very heroic.

So Li Yuanyi took the lead in standing up and helping him speak: "I think it's okay to lease the Dehe Islands to Lord Guo, although this person has a somewhat domineering personality, but he still has some loyalty, otherwise he wouldn't have come so far to help China and North Korea fight, his lease of the Dehe Islands should not have any ill intentions towards my North Korea, but to help China and North Korea contain Houjin, if he really has bad intentions towards my North Korea, we can also sue China and North Korea, and China and North Korea will definitely not care!" ……”

Han Xiaochun also echoed: "Yes, it is not a good thing for him to leave 10,000 Zixin troops to our dynasty, it can protect my North Korea from being harassed by the Houjin, I heard the guide sent to say that this time he encountered 10,000 Houjin cavalry chasing on the return trip, and he defeated 10,000 Houjin cavalry with only thousands of Xinxin troops, with the protection of this heroic army, Houjin will not dare to attack!" ……”

Guanghaijun was not so firm at the beginning when he heard Li Yuanyi say this, and he really couldn't think of a better way, so he could only agree to lease the Dehe Islands to Guo Zhiyuan, Guo Zhiyuan already knew that Guanghaijun had no choice but to agree to his request, and he did not stay to block Guanghaijun, so Li Dan, who had been staying in Hanyang City, took people to take the first step to receive the Dehe Islands, and prepared to receive the Houjin population and the long-term garrison of the New Army, and he returned to Anton.

Sun Zhiyong finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Guo Zhiyuan come back, he was only responsible for leading the troops to fight in the past, but now Guo Zhiyuan has thrown so many Houjin people to him, so many people eat, drink and Lazar, although it is a trivial matter, but everything has to be asked, his head is about to explode during this time, which also makes him more and more respectful to Guo Zhiyuan to the ground, Dongfan has received hundreds of thousands of new immigrants, and he has to engage in construction, but Guo Zhiyuan can manage it in an orderly manner, so that Dongfan can develop rapidly, which is not something that ordinary people can do.

So as soon as Sun Zhiyong saw Guo Zhiyuan, he happily reported: "My lord, you are back!" During the time you left, I collected a total of 6,382 people from the Ming army and the refugees from Liaodong, and I really can't hold it if you don't come back! ……”
