It's better to buy than to buy, and it's better to rent than to buy!

Duoduo also felt that it was not quite right, except for the banner of the Pacific Sailors of the Great Qing Kingdom, none of them were from the Great Qing Dynasty.

The ship was rented, the captain and sailors were rented with the ship, and even the port that served as the camp of the sailors had to be rented from the Koreans!

Of course, the people and materials for the construction of the port facilities and fortresses had to be leased from the Korean state - what a shame!

The dignified Qing Dynasty is going to be tenants for the Koreans......

Such a good thing is now placed in front of Song Shilie, the envoy of the Korean State.

Now Song Shilie is dumbfounded!

Although he himself proposed to let the warriors of the Great Qing Kingdom board the ships of the Japanese Baniya to attack Tsushima Island on the port of Korea, he did not say that he would lease the port of the Korean Kingdom to the Great Qing Dynasty!

Rent...... Is there a loan and a repayment, or is there a loan and no repayment?

In addition, the port of lease ...... Is this a business practice? Or is it about the transfer of national sovereignty?

If it is a commercial act, the DPRK does not agree. The country of Korea is closed to the rest of the country!

Previously, only merchant ships of the Ming Dynasty were allowed to enter and leave - earlier the Ming Dynasty was theoretically the father country of North Korea, and the son could not shut his father out of the door, that was unfilial piety! Later, although the Korean Kingdom recognized the Qing Dynasty as the new suzerain, the pro-Ming atmosphere was still there, and Shen Tingyang's Beiyang Naval Division was more reasonable, so the Korean State did not cancel the "trade privileges" of the Ming Dynasty.

When Sonny and others brought back the "Japan-Mongolia Agreement", the Korean state had to allow the merchant ships of the Japanese country to enter the port to purchase supplies—now the Japanese and the Great Mongolia are brotherly states! So the kingdom of Joseon has to be called "uncle" by the family, can the uncle be shut out? Don't talk about family affection or something?

However, the Korean doctor really resented "Uncle Zhisibania" in his heart, and this "uncle" was too fond of spreading false theories and would talk nonsense about "all of us are children of God, brothers and sisters" at every opportunity.

On the Korean side, there is no question about whether the two classes and the poor can be brothers, even if they are brothers, it depends on whether they are raised by the eldest wife, the younger wife, or the third child...... The little wife raises a concubine, and the one who raises a son with the junior outside. If you can't even take the imperial examination, do you still want to be the same as your son-in-law?

On the side of the Ming Dynasty, the concubine was born to inherit a little less inheritance, or to be lower in the ranking of inheriting the title (the concubines of North Korea usually cannot inherit the title, even if they do not have a concubine, unless they are the sons of the king), and the examination to be an official or cut people to be an official is not affected. But not in North Korea! Although the country has conducted imperial examinations, the degree of hierarchy has not changed at all.

Therefore, the degree of antipathy to Catholicism and Western learning in the two classes of North Korea is far greater than that of those Ming scholars who "have a heart is reason and a conscience".

Therefore, when Song Shilie heard Duoduo say that he wanted to "lease" the Korean port, the biggest trouble that came to his mind was not national sovereignty or anything, but that Catholicism would get a stronghold on Korean soil.

"Your Royal Highness, how big is the land that the Qing Dynasty wants to lease? Are there any civilians living in the leased land? ”

Duoduo didn't seem to expect that Song Shilie would ask so many details, and his thoughts on government affairs were not so detailed, so he gave a look to Ganglin, the prefect of Fengtian who accompanied him.

Although Duoduo became the uncle of the Fujun Emperor and lived in the Shengjing Palace, he did not establish a set of state organs similar to the Six Ministries and Nine Secretaries in Shengjing. Just let the prefect of Mukden Guerga. Ganglin became the head of the civil officials, that is, the de facto Xiangguo, and at the same time made Nikan and Bolo the commanders of the army. As for the locality, it is still a government and four Angbang Jiugu Mountains, except for "one government", the rest are military and civilian.

"Of course, the leased land can't be too small," Ganglin had already discussed the details of the "Mongolian lease" with Caballero, so now he opened his mouth to come, "Our Great Qing Kingdom is a combination of military and civilian, and since we want to garrison troops, we have to Tuntian." There must be at least 5,000 acres (15,000 acres) of flat land...... In addition, some land will be circled for the construction of forts, military ports, shipyards and commercial markets. ”

"Do you want to open a market?" Song Shilie already felt that something was wrong.

"Of course, it will be opened," Ganglim said, "and in the future, the tribute rice that the Korean State will send to Vladivostok will be sent from the Ulsan Concession...... In addition, merchants from the Qing Dynasty, Korea, and Hindania could also live and operate in the Ulsan Concession. ”

It is completely the idea of Westerners to enclose land and build concessions!

"This, this ......" Song Shilie was in a mess.

The purpose of his coming to Shengjing was obviously to lead the four calamities (the Ming Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty, Japan, and the Japanese Mountains) together, so that they would lose everything, and now how did the Qing State lease the Korean port land? This is a loss of power and humiliation of the country!

"What? You don't agree? Duoduo saw Song Shilie spitting and spitting, and he was about to turn his face at that time, "I rent your North Korea's land in a dignified manner, which is equivalent to being a tenant for your North Korea, and I have to rent it every year...... This is your blessing, why do you still want to shirk the verdict of North Korea? What the hell is the idea? ”

What's the idea?

Regret it!

When there is a struggle between the big countries, the small states with normal brains have to hide, and those who hide far away are best able to be invisible, thinking that it is profitable to go up and join in the fun, and if they can't do it, they will fold themselves in.

"Don't dare, the minister doesn't dare to ......" Of course Song Shilie didn't dare to say "no" to Duoduo, "It's just that the matter of leasing the port is too big, and the minister can't call the shots, so he must ask my king." Moreover, Ulsan is too close to Busan, and if it becomes the camp of the naval division of Shangguo, I am afraid that it will be attacked by the Japanese national naval division immediately. Therefore, Xiao Chen suggested that the imperial uncle choose another good port. ”

Ganglin said: "Then build a port in the Jiulongpu enclosure in Daegu Province!" ”

Kowloonpo is the area of Pohang City in later generations. There are many natural harbors in the south and west of the Korean Peninsula, but there are not many two ports in the east, except for Ulsan, which is Kowloonpo, and if you want to find it, you have to go to the coastline of northeastern Korea.

Therefore, the "Imperial Uncle Regime", which had a map of the eight provinces of Korea in hand, chose two targets at the beginning, one was Ulsan, and the other was Jiulongpo.

Therefore, the Korean monarchs still have a choice...... The Qing Dynasty is still reasonable!

......

In the southern part of the Korean Peninsula, a large island called Geoje Island was also invaded by the "Japanese invaders" at this time!

Geoje Island is a large island surrounded by many harbors, and in the eastern part of the island there is an ideal natural shelter called Okpo. The harbor is encased in two protruding peninsulas, and the entrance is narrow, less than four miles. As long as you choose the high ground on the two peninsulas and place cannons on the two peninsulas, and then seal them with iron boats, you can protect the fleet in the bay.

Moreover, the interior area of Yupu Bay is very large, from the entrance of the bay to the inside, it is nearly 6 li, and the width is about 4 li, with an area of about 24 square miles or 6 square kilometers, which is enough for hundreds of warships.

In addition, the port faces the wide sea, which makes it easier for the fleet to enter and exit and is not easy to be ambushed by the enemy. The bay is surrounded by mountains, so it is very easy to defend as long as a little more troops are invested.

Therefore, Zheng Jiangong, the commander of the Oriental Naval Division of the Ming Dynasty, chose this place from the very beginning as the home port of the Oriental Naval Division in Daying in the southern part of the Korean Peninsula.

Previously, a fleet was sent to attack Jeejang Island in Busanpo, just to attract the attention of the North Koreans and create political influence at the same time.

So after tossing around on the insulated island and making a cameo appearance as a pirate at sea, Zheng Jiangong led 7 Western-style sailing ships, 20 sand boats, 1 bird boat (the Pacific) and all the marine troops, all of which were transferred to Yupu Bay on Geoje Island.

After a frightening shelling, the undefended bay fell into the hands of the landed Japanese - the real Japanese army, hundreds of Japanese ronin mercenaries under the command of Zahepu, and they were the same ones who beat up the Korean sailors on Jeegyll Island. The Japanese Combined Fleet, there must be a few Japanese, right?
