The turquoise sea gently lapped the reef, stirring up a white spray, a huge lobster poked its head out of the seawater, waved its pincers and climbed hard, kept waving its long whiskers, and its bulging eyeballs twisted and looked vigilantly four times, and when it saw that there was no abnormality, it quietly admired the red sun on the horizon.

It wasn't until a sharp bayonet pierced the hard shell that he whipped his tail in panic and crackled himself, trying to escape back into the sea, but it was too late.

Chang Mao held the bayonet and said happily: "Look at me stabbed a big lobster, I ate a little breakfast!" ”

Qi Xiang said helplessly: "It's a war now, you can't be a little positive." ”

Although he said so, he unceremoniously plucked the lobster and threw it into the cabin at his feet.

"I don't row the boat, it's just a stabbing of my hand, clean up the stinky fish and rotten shrimp, why make a fuss and let you go out in person, I am enough alone."

"You know the, all the people on this island are the elite of the Tartars, if they are really vulnerable, why should they delay until now, or they will have been occupied by the Japanese Invaders long ago. Let the people in front row faster, and the sky will soon be bright. ”

Two hundred small boats swarmed to the beach in the faint morning light and quickly assembled, sending scouts to reconnoiter while moving slowly forward, while those small boats continued to pick up people not far from the big boats.

The 2,000 people who landed on the island had not been far from the sea, and their feet had changed from a sandy and rocky beach to lush green grass, and the morning light stretched as far as the eye could see.

Chang Mao said in surprise: "There are such islands, it's really strange, I don't know if I thought I was in the grassland." ”

"What's so strange, this is Mengyuan's horse breeding place, and it's strange that there is no grassland!" Qi Xiang kicked Chang Mao, "Hurry up while the enemy hasn't found out yet!" As soon as he finished speaking, he heard gunshots in the distance, and a series of grenade explosions.

Chang Mao said: "Eighty percent of the scouts have been discovered!" Let's hurry! ”

The two thousand men walked quickly, and after walking a short distance, they saw several naval scouts running back, as if they had discovered something incredible, and shouted loudly: "There are really Tartars on this island, and there are many miles!" ”

"Nonsense, how many!"

"After the woods in front, you can see a small town through the binoculars, and there are many camps around it, and the scale can accommodate at least tens of thousands of people, and the number of soldiers who can fight is at least between two thousand!"

Chang Mao said: "Let's rush over and kill them by surprise, don't let them run!" ”

"Tartars aren't so bad, so they won't run away without even seeing each other." Qi Xiang saw that there was a dirt slope not far away, "Go to the top of the dirt slope and wait for them to come to us." ”

2,000 men immediately occupied the dirt slope, and this kind of terrain team was the most advantageous for the Ming army using firearms, taking advantage of the difference in the height of the terrain, it was easy to open fire without changing formation.

As soon as the marines finished arranging their troops, they heard the sound of horses' hooves, and saw about 2,000 cavalry coming out of the forest and rushing into the grassland with great vigour.

Qi Xiang said with a smile: "There really is cavalry, it seems that it is still elite, no wonder the Japanese can't capture here, even if they land on the island, they can't stand." ”

"Hey...... We are not widows, and today this island will be renamed and surnamed. Chang Mao took out a short gun and fired a shot into the sky to beckon the group of cavalry to come.

The 2,000 cavalry were like wolves that smelled fishy, and they turned their horses' heads directly without stopping, and rushed towards the navy on the dirt slope, the horses' hooves rumbled, and the momentum was violent, and the shining nails under the morning light shone brightly, blocking the bow and arrow steel knife, but not the scorching projectile.

The tiger squatting in front of the formation, roaring loudly, countless iron beads flew out through the diffuse gunsmoke, overwhelmingly shooting, like flying locusts in the sky, blood splattered between contacts, and people turned over on their backs......

Such a momentum frightened the cavalry behind hurriedly tightened the reins, but the horse stopped if he wanted to, the Mengyuan cavalry was still rushing forward, and the artillery of the Ming army was still roaring.

Entering the range of the musket, it is the Hades Hall that one foot enters, how can it be easy to leave, crackling a dense explosion, the earth slope is filled with gunsmoke, such a close distance such a dense formation, there is no need to aim at all, a large number of enemy troops are shot and fall from their horses.

"Hurry up and reload! Hey? It's all fucking gone. ”

Two thousand Mengyuan cavalry came in a hurry but left in a hurry, hundreds of people died in a charge but did not even touch the enemy's hair, the Mongols were not stupid at all so they would not crash into the muzzle of the gun, and they were born to die in guerrilla warfare.

The navy went down the dirt slope and relined up, Qi Xiang looked at a horse that was moaning to the end, and said regretfully: "Good horse, what a pity!" As if he could not bear to suffer any longer, he took out his knife and cut the horse's neck, and a stream of bloody arrows spurted out, and the horse neighed and then died down.

The Marine Corps had just finished regrouping, and Ma Du and Mao Xiang on the other side of the beach rushed over with a group of people, looked at the bloody corpses all over the ground and said, "You guys are neat, you have already fought a battle?" ”

Qi Xiang arched his hand and said: "The governor of the capital has already had a fight, and I thought it was an elite, who knew that I couldn't help fighting, and I ran away without a shadow after just one photo." ”

"It seems that I overestimated them, and I was still stunned about what to do, so hurry up and serve their lair!"

Madu looked at the surrounding scenery as he walked, this is indeed a beautiful treasure island, the geographical location is more important, to occupy this place is to choke the throat of the Korean Peninsula and the main island of Japan, but it is a pity that such a strategic place is cheap.

If you don't know about Tamna Island, everyone knows about Jeju Island, where there was a small country called Tamna in the 10th century, which was later annexed by the Goryeo Kingdom.

However, in the Yuan Dynasty, it became the territory directly under the jurisdiction of the Great Yuan, and the Great Yuan once set up the Tamluo Military and Civilian Administration Office here, and because of the abundant water and grass here, it became the horse breeding place of the Yuan Dynasty.

In history, at the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, because of the attack of the Japanese invaders, Lao Zhu was busy blockading the sea frontier, and almost lost Penghu, let alone accepting Tamna Island.

However, there are a lot of Mongolian elite cavalry on the island, whether it is Goryeo or the Japanese people for a while, they have not been able to occupy it, so they have been waiting for decades, Goryeo has perished, Li Chenggui saw that the Ming really did not mean to take over Tamna Island, so he extended an olive branch to the remnants of the Mengyuan on the island, so it became the territory of North Korea.

Ma Du didn't plan to give up this strategic place, and mentioned it to Lao Zhu, and Lao Zhu agreed that he would take Tamna Island by the way. As for why the navy didn't do it before, because Bo Qi told him that there are many Mongolian elites on Jeju Island, and it is difficult to fight without a few thousand people.

As for why Bo Qi is so clear about a small island hanging overseas, because he once thought that if most of them couldn't stay any longer, he would flee to Jeju Island to live a free life, and for this reason, he specially asked people to come here to build a palace (historical facts), and sent a part of his pro-army to be stationed on Xue Lai Island, which is the elite in his mouth.

It was just a whim of him, not practical at all, and he eventually fled back to the steppe. His Xue was far from being as powerful as he thought, and he broke up and fled under the firearms of the Ming army.

The Ming army walked through the woods for about four or five miles, and then they saw a small city built on the edge of a small river, and the yurts were tied around the small city.

Seeing the arrival of the Ming army, Meng Yuan's soldiers immediately came out and beat the herdsmen, and forced the city gate to be closed, and the herdsmen couldn't care about the cattle and sheep, so they fled elsewhere in panic.

Chang Mao said disdainfully: "What is the difference between such a tattered gate and not closed, a bundle of grenades can blow up, and I will take people here." ”

"What's the hurry!" Ma Du stretched out his hand to stop him and took out a letter from his arms, "Let's persuade him to surrender first, if it doesn't work, it's not too late to fight." ”

At the moment, he tied the letter to the arrow and let Chang Mao shoot it into the city with a strong bow, of course, this letter of persuasion was written by Bo Qi, and it was estimated that it was more effective than the old Zhu Shengzhi, and sure enough, it took less than half an hour for the city gate to be opened, but only one person came to this side, and the man was wearing armor but did not carry a weapon.

Ma Du instructed his soldiers: "Don't stop, let him come!" ”

The man looked about forty years old, with a short yellow face, short beard, high eyebrows, and a high nose bridge, a typical Mongolian man, and asked in Mongolian when he approached, "May I ask which one is the Marquis of Jiangning of the Ming Kingdom?" ”

Fortunately, Madu brought an interpreter and immediately translated his words to Madu.

Ma Du took a small step forward, "Ben Hou is, what's your name?" Is it the steward of this place? ”

The Mongolian man knelt down on one knee and said, "The head of Tamna Mansion is dead, and below is the head of Xue sent by the emperor to supervise the construction of the palace, and now he is the actual person in charge of Tamna Mansion!" I came to surrender on the orders of the emperor, and I only ask your Excellency not to kill my people. ”

No wonder he surrendered so happily, it turned out to be Bo Qi's Xue Chief, who was naturally more loyal than the average magistrate.

Ma Du corrected: "Now there is no Zhizheng Emperor, only the obedient prince, and the only emperor in the world is my Emperor Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty, don't say anything wrong." ”

"Yes!" Bayar sighed helplessly.

"Take the Divine Decree!" As soon as Ma Du stretched out his hand back, Lao Liu took out a roll of yellow silk from his baggage, Ma Du wrote his name in the blank space, read it and handed it to him, "Now you are my Ming commander's envoy in Tamluo Island, and you should be loyal to your duties in the future to repay the emperor's kindness." ”

Bayar didn't expect that Emperor Zhu of the Ming Dynasty was so powerful, and he didn't even need political censorship to make him an official of the Ming Dynasty, so he knelt down and kowtowed, in the end, the rules and etiquette of staying in front of the emperor were not bad at all, and then he took the holy decree from Ma Du's hands, and respectfully invited Ma Du to enter the city after getting up.

Ma Du shook his head and said: "Ben Hou still has to go to Liaodong to clean up Naha and go out of the city without entering the city, but there are two things for you to do." ”

"Please ask Master Hou to command, the lower officials must do their best!"

"It is not a difficult task, first, when the boundary is surveyed and a monument is erected to declare the territory, and second, a wharf and port are built for future warships and merchant ships to dock. By the way, how many Koreans are there on the island? ”

Bayar replied: "There are less than 20,000, scattered elsewhere to farm for a living, as long as the Hou Ye says a word, the lower officials will kill them all." ”

"That's not necessary, the construction of a wharf and port still requires manpower, but in the future, when the Goryeo and Japanese people board, only my Ming warships and merchant ships can come."

"Obey the decree of Hou Yejun!"

After struggling with the new Tamna commander, Ma Du led people to turn around and leave, Chang Mao kept nagging beside him, "Governor, let's leave like this now, is this person reliable?" ”

"Is there any other choice for him? People go high and the water flows low, don't you want to be the official of the Ming Dynasty, you can't be the official of Goryeo and the Japanese country, the Mongols respect the strong, and you have already broken his mind in that beautiful battle just now. ”

Qi Xiang said: "What the governor said is that this Mongolian is cheap, and the reason why Nahachu is swaying is that the emperor has given him too much sweetness, thinking that he will take advantage of both ends, so let's let him suffer a little." ”

The capture of Shenyang cut off Naha's way out, or took Kaiyuan and captured Naha's family, there were no clear instructions in the battle plan, so that Ma Du would depend on the situation, no matter which one was done, it would be a fatal blow to Naha.

Ma Du couldn't make up his mind, but he had an excellent leader Li Chenggui, and under Ma Du's prodding, Lao Zhu sent an edict to the King of Goryeo to ask for troops to assist, and Li Chenggui was the person named by Ma Du.

It's not that he makes it bad, it's really because Li Chenggui is really a person who is very good at fighting, breaking the red scarf, leveling the Japanese and the Jurchen, but the Yuan army, and the Jurchen, except that he has never fought with the Ming army, he has fought a circle of enemies around Goryeo, and he can often win more with less and stronger with weak.

The key is that he once fought with Naha, and he killed Nahachu with only 15,000 people, and he was spared only by hiding in Liaoyang City. It doesn't matter how many troops and horses Goryeo sends, it is enough to have Li Chenggui as a military adviser.

Goryeo also suffered for a long time, so he promised to be very happy, and was willing to send 3,000 troops to bring dry food to Madu to help the war, but the king of Goryeo was not very at ease with the Ming Dynasty and did not allow the Ming navy to land in Goryeo.

Ma Du had no choice but to meet Li Chenggui on a small island on the edge of Goryeo, under a grass hut, Ma Du spread out the map and said two plans, who knew that Li Chenggui laughed after hearing it.

Ma Du said angrily: "What are you laughing at, if there is something wrong, it is that Ben Hou is not a person who can't listen to opinions." ”

Li Chenggui suppressed his smile and apologized: "Don't blame Master Hou, I heard you just now say that you are going to land north along the Yalu River, and then take Kaiyuan directly, right?" ”

"Why not? Although the road is a little farther, there seems to be no one in the city on this road, it should not be easy to be found, and it is not difficult to sneak attack Kaiyuan. ”

"Hey...... Yes, there are no cities and no people, but there are no roads either! ”

Lu Xun is right, there is no road in the world, and if you walk a lot, you will have a road, and no one really should have a road.

Li Chenggui said again: "Not only are there no roads here, but there are also lofty mountains and swamps, but there are many barbaric and fierce Jurchens who like to enclose territory. In fact, your two strategies can be combined into one strategy, whether it is to cut off Hana's back road, or to capture his family, you must attack Shenyang first!
