Section 34 Treaty of Seoul
Li Hao, who has been made the king of Xiaozong, now thinks back to that treaty, and can't help but feel funny about the state of mind at that time. It's like a person who has never seen the world, always worried about being cheated, and as a result, he loses a great opportunity in vain.
On the day he returned to the palace, he carefully studied the "letter of intent", and did not say a word about the conditions for "paying salaries and paying tribute", it was completely a project regulation for cooperation between the two sides, and even the mention of some things made Li Hao even more excited. In particular, an army fully armed with firearms will be provided for the Lee family of Korea, which will be used as an allied force in the future Fusang Operation.
If there is such an army...... The joy in the heart of Li Hao, who has become the king of filial piety on the horse, is as bright as the sun today.
Li Hao led the ordinary courtiers and carefully studied the "letter of intent" provided by Shenzhou City for several days. This "letter of intent" not only includes military, economic, and resource resources, but also includes some principles of navigation and commercial transactions between the two sides.
Military aspects:
First of all, the two sides will establish a "strategic cooperative partnership," in which North Korea will send troops to Shenju City in operations other than China's mainland, and the benefits obtained after the war will be distributed proportionally to the number of troops sent.
Second, the DPRK provided a large amount of grain, copper, iron, tin, lead, and other materials and raw ore to the Tsushima military base to which Shenzhou City belongs, while Shenzhou City provided the DPRK with some "advanced weapons" and helped train the new-style army and corresponding officers. The rest of the "advanced weapons" were supplied to the DPRK at preferential prices. It also transferred the production technology and equipment for the "repeating musket" bullets, the "Xiaofei Shen crossbow" (excluding bearings and other major components) and the "red cannon" and other old artillery and new flowering shells.
Thirdly, the DPRK will provide the territory of Jeju Island as a military base for Shenju City, and as a corresponding condition, the Shenju Fortress will ensure that every legitimate Korean king of the Lee clan will not be overthrown, and will enter Korea at the request of the Korean monarch to help counter the rebellion and suppress bandits, but will not enter Korea until he is invited.
Finally, at the same time, Shenzhou City sent technicians to them to renovate the defense of the city required by North Korea, which could increase the level of defense of the city by more than ten times, and completely defend against the invasion of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. At the same time, four "1647 Tianhuo-type-L rocket launchers" were supplied to important cities designated for North Korea for defense, but the shells were supplied by Shenju City.
On the political side, the "Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence," namely, "mutual respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity, mutual non-aggression, non-interference in each other's internal affairs, equality and mutual benefit, and peaceful coexistence," were established on the basis of the "Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence," and the conditions for mutual and most-favored-nation treatment.
In the economic direction, a considerable number of cooperation plans were proposed, including the principle of jointly starting the trading of metal mineral resources and commodities in Fuso, completely mutual tax exemption, and carrying out cooperation and exchanges in the fields of education, commerce, tourism, fishery, industry, etc., and the most important point was that the Korean version of the Shinju Pravda will be distributed in various cities of the DPRK.
Although there were some conditions that did not meet the needs of the Koreans who founded the country on Confucianism, now their Emperor Hyojong completely fell to the city of Shenju. Some heavyweight courtiers were completely inclined to Shenzhou City due to the covert bribery of Shenzhou City. Therefore, most of the articles of the "Letter of Intent", which was the predecessor of the Seoul Treaty, were adopted by the Lee family of Korea.
The DPRK, as the first member of the future "Asia-Pacific Treaty Organization," has been carrying out comprehensive and all-out cooperation with Shenzhou City since then. In just a few years, it has made great strides in political, economic, military, industrial, and educational fields, and soon became the country with the strongest comprehensive national strength in the Asia-Pacific Treaty Organization, except for the founding state, the Federation of China.
And because his army began to cooperate with Shenzhou City at the earliest, and participated in almost every war except for the battles in the Chinese Shenzhou Federation, he was the strongest and most determined ally in the entire Asia-Pacific Treaty Organization.
And at this moment, Li Hao, the king of filial piety, was carrying a letter from his brother Li Luo, the king of Longcheng, in his arms, and he had been living in the military camp of Shenzhou City. Among them, he has concluded based on several days of observation of the Shenzhou army's troops, and the only aspect of the "letter of intent" that will be revised is the plan for improving the military system and weapons of the North Korean armed forces. At the same time, he also explained that his thoughts were all helped by those staff officers of the Shenzhou Army General Staff.
The first element was to ask King Hyojong to be the commander-in-chief of the Korean army, and the second was to abolish the military headquarters, establish a staff headquarters, and abolish all other armies.
In the first category, the DPRK army will be divided into five categories, and the military system will be changed to the style of Shenju City. The first category is still the Praetorian Guard, with a regimental establishment, all equipped with the standard equipment of the Shenzhou Army, and the task is to protect the stability of the royal family and the surrounding capital. It is directly transferred by the king, and no one else has the right to transfer.
The second category is the field army, equipped with "flying crossbows", "repeating muskets", "grenades", and "pistols". This is a field force with at least three to five divisions and 6 to 120,000 men. Among them, the southernmost plain near Busan will be safely equipped with a large number of combat vehicles in the form of the Shenzhou Army.
The third category is the defensive army, with weapons and equipment such as "flying crossbows", "spear-type crossbows" and "grenades", most of them are infantry, and a small part of the cavalry are stationed in each city to carry out urban defense operations, and the city defense commander of each city commands the number of people ranging from 1,000 to 5,000 according to the size of the city, and is responsible for the vigilance and defense of coastal points.
The fourth category is the overseas corps, which has only one overseas combat command and staff in peacetime, and the troops are transferred from the field army in accordance with the operational objectives proposed by the allies in wartime.
The first is to invite shipbuilding technicians from Shenzhou City to transform the old turtle ships to undertake battlefield transportation tasks, and then to purchase 10~20 "Fury Tide-class" warships, which will be gradually expanded if funds permit in the future, and purchase some "Liefeng-class" destroyers and "whale-class" amphibious assault ships and other ships. The establishment is in accordance with the establishment of the Shenzhou Army and Navy, and the General Staff Department shall draw up a plan and report it to the commanders of the three services for approval of the transfer.
In addition, it organized active-duty officers and recruited a large number of teenagers to invite the Shenzhou Army to select and enter the three military academies (navy, army, and junior military academies) in Shenzhou City to learn the latest tactics.
King Xiaozong Li Hao believed in the loyalty of his brother Li Roll, the prince of Longcheng, and planned to obey his advice, the only thing that may be lacking is silver, although the implementation of the "Datong Law" national strength has been somewhat restored, but these years to the Qing court tribute has also put a very heavy burden on the back of Korea. Even so, Li Hao decided to tighten his belt and build a new army, and he also thought of a way to get some help in advance.
