227 Follow-up

"There are brave people in weak countries!"

Jin Shangxian's heroic deeds were passed on to Huang Taiji's ears after the oral narration of Yanguli and other generals present, so that he was moved.

Not only Kim Sang-hun, but also dozens of North Korean soldiers who fought with Kim Sang-hun to the end at that time, after Kim Sang-heon was inaugurated, none of them surrendered to the Qing army, and they fought to the end, which brought a lot of trouble to the Qing army.

Heroes are heavy heroes, although they are enemies of each other, but the mood towards those admirable characters is the same everywhere.

"Take good care of those Korean ministers, don't be lazy!"

After this incident, the emperor Taiji looked up to these civil servants in the small Korean country, and after breaking through the mountain fortress of Namhan, there were dozens of Korean civil servants who finally dared to pick up swords and soldiers and fight hard with their own side, and the rest of the officials of all sizes were countless, indicating that the demeanor of the literati of his country should not be underestimated.

"Wow!"

It's a pity that in the end, their Qing people still haven't been able to find the trace of King Injo of Korea, and they let go of a big fish, which is really a big threat to their next actions.

"Your Majesty, Weichen believes that the other party will definitely not be able to run far, there is General Haoge with more than 10,000 Qing soldiers outside Hanyang City in the east to guard the perimeter, and General Dolgon is stationed on the flank in the west, and there is not much left in the direction of their escape."

At the bottom, Yanguli and other military ministers were frustrated that they failed to complete task two, and at the same time asked for their lives unconvinced.

"The pursuit of King Injo cannot be stopped, but the goal of our trip cannot be put down, since they Koreans do not obey the indoctrination, then I can't be merciful!"

"Order the three armies to march east into Hanyang City, and I will sleep in the king's dormitory in Hanyang City the day after tomorrow!!"

"Chirp!!"

The swept away mountain city of Nanhan not only provided tens of thousands of stone land grain and grass supplies for the Qing army, but also tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians were captured by it, which can be regarded as making up for the previous losses.

A large army, divided into two routes, escorted the captured people back to the rear station all the way, and the remaining part attacked Hanyang City, which had been abandoned by Huang Taiji and them.

Here in Kaesong in the west, Dolgon killed it again, this time it took almost no effort to occupy Kaesong, but at this time in Kaesong, there were few people in the industry, and more Korean soldiers and civilians also took action after Hongtang saw and retreated, and withdrew towards Ganghwa Island on the South Border Sea, leaving Dolgon with nothing but an empty city.

The hibernating Hauge division used cavalry to chisel through the army of Marshal Qinwang who came to harass them several times, and after failing to please him several times, Marshal Du also temporarily stopped invading Hauge's department.

However, Marshal Du and their side were not without gains, and the Qing generals Temur, Anu and others were killed in the confrontation with Marshal Du's troops, which greatly boosted the morale of the Korean Qinwang army.

However, as the main army of the Qing Dynasty advanced eastward, Marshal Du's actions were a little difficult, and they had no choice but to continue to withdraw to the rear of Jeolla Province and Chungcheong Province to avoid their edge.

During this period, the team of King Injo of Joseon was exposed several times, but every time before the Qing pursuers arrived to encircle, they disappeared without a trace, which made the Qing soldiers extremely depressed and the emperor Taiji angry several times.

Under this grievance, the Qing army really exerted stronger combat effectiveness, and before the restriction order given by Huang Taiji, Hanyang City was taken down, and the Qing army occupied the Korean royal capital and the accompanying capital, so that many unknown Korean people heard that they did not change their color, and the whole country was sad.

Just after hearing the sad news that Hanyang Fortress had fallen into the hands of the enemy, another good news came from the Marshal of the capital, and their King Injo joined him peacefully and retreated towards the rear of Korea.

At a time when the whole country was in danger, the officials and people of the DPRK showed a very strong fighting spirit, and since the Qing people had closed the door to peace talks, King Injo, who had the intention to ask for peace talks, had no choice and issued a national mobilization order.

As a country of landlords, when it is really cornered, the demeanor of the trapped beast is still fighting, even if it is the invincible Qing army in the world, it is also overwhelming.

The guerrilla detachments organized by the gentry and the common people in various places, and the stragglers organized by local officials, made the Qing people understand what a people's war was.

Although, the strength of these local Korean armed forces is not worth mentioning, but if you walk too much at night, you will always encounter ghosts, and the Qing people are not three-headed and six-armed to immortals, how can they be unscathed in the siege in all directions!

The only thing that makes people happy is that the war horse that was poisoned by the soldiers of the Hongtang reconnaissance battalion has gradually improved after these years of care, although it has lost a little weight, but the cavalry is not too much of a problem in fighting for a short time.

With a large force of highly mobile cavalry joined, the situation of the Qing people is much better, in a war in which tens of thousands of cavalry are dispatched, the division of King Qin led by Marshal Du, finally suffered a lot in front of the other party, more than 30,000 Korean soldiers were defeated by it in this battle, more than 20,000 dead and wounded, and the remaining remnants covered Marshal Du They retreated to Chungcheongdo and reorganized the manpower to resist.

Time flies quickly, and in Huang Taiji's prediction, the invasion of the Korean Kingdom should have been completed at the end of the first month, but now it is the end of February, and the southeastern provinces of Korea are still resisting strongly, so that the Qing people cannot advance or retreat.

Of course, not all the news is bad, because the Korean kingdom can be plundered without scruples, and the losses of the fools who fought in Korea before have now been made up.

There don't seem to be many other kingdoms in the Korean Kingdom, but the population is so large that it is much higher than the powerful Qing Kingdom.

Just occupying a few provinces in the northwest, as well as Kaesong, Namhansan Fortress, Hanyang City and other places, the Qing people plundered and captured millions of Korean people, which is the most underpopulated Qing Dynasty, which can be called a full tonic.

And in Chungcheong-do, Jeolla-do, and other Korean lands that are still in the rear of Korea, there are still more people and materials waiting for Huang Taiji and them to conquer.

In this regard, while the Qing Dynasty army continued to transport all kinds of materials and a large number of people to the land of their own kingdom, Huang Taiji and they did not panic to retreat, and still coiled the army between Chungcheong Province and Jeolla Province, and wanted to wipe out the Korean people in one fell swoop.

In the face of the movements of the Qing people, the Koreans did not show weakness, although they knew that they were at a disadvantage in front of the Qing people, but under the threat of the disaster of annihilation, they mobilized all the forces in their hands and put on an attitude of swearing to fight to the death!
