The Yi Dynasty was a peninsula, and it was much faster to walk along the coast than to bypass Gyeonggi Province by land, and on the evening of the third day, the fleet had reached the northern part of Jeolla Province, which was the territory of later Korea

Although the hometown is not far away, Mao Jue has really never been here, the legendary plastic surgery paradise, shopping paradise, and tourist attraction Jeju Island, these are quite new to Mao Jue.

Not only him, everyone seems to have an illusion, the more you go to the north, the more bitter cold the land, the more you go south, the richer you are, for this place of grain, rice and straw in the south of the Li Dynasty, the big guy is also very curious, and he lies on the boat and looks at the land by the afterglow of dusk.

However, it didn't take long for everyone to be disappointed, the low and dilapidated city walls, the slum-like castle wall, and the Goryeo people who came and went were even more ragged and vegetable, this is the county town of Chonggang Gunsan in the northern part of Jeolla Province, but it is barren.

"Phew, what kind of good place should Lao Tzu be! Not to mention compared with Tieling and Shenyang back then, even if Lao Tzu lives in Pangjiatunzi, I feel richer than here!"

This time the generals came to a rotation, because Wen Meng is Mao Jue's most trusted general, and he is also the person who can only carry out Mao Jue's orders, he returned to Tieshan, while going to train the newly recruited soldiers, while monitoring Rutian Tao, Zhao Cheng and other generals Don't get into trouble, as the second to take refuge in it, Dang Hai took on the task of Mao Jue's deputy.

Standing at the bow of the boat, he was the first to complain, but after muttering a few words, the half-fat man was speechless and drooped his head.

"It's a pity that Jiannu was burned!"

"I'll be able to call back sooner or later!"

Even if it is not a person of this era, after such a long period of contact, this kind of melancholy of leaving home Mao Jue also tasted it vividly, patted the shoulder of the huge sea in the back, and faced him, Mao Jue nodded emphatically, and seemed to have woken up, Pang Fatzi was a little embarrassed, but then quickly recovered the old spiciness, and rigor that a general should have.

"Why are you stunned? Concentrate! Pack your bags and get ready to go ashore!"

In the hurried shouting and horns, not only Mao Jue's subordinates became nervous, but the ant-like North Korean soldiers in front of them were also busy preparing to get off the ship.

This is really a small and broken place, looking at those rotten wooden houses, the Ming army didn't even have the desire to live, and directly set up a camp outside the city in the trembling eyes of those Koreans, as for Mao Jue and Jin Zidian, they were invited to the yamen by the city guard, no matter how poor the people were, they couldn't be hungry as officials, and a wine banquet was very good.

However, no matter whether Mao Jue or Jin Zidian, he has no heart to eat and drink, especially Jin Zidian, this year is really an eventful year for the Li Dynasty, there is chaos in the north and chaos in the south, as the leader of a country, his pressure is also very great, and he has aged a few years in the past two days, and people in their fifties look like they are seventy.

As for Mao Jue, he still has a black eye on this Japanese battlefield, and on the way here, Jin Zidian didn't reveal too much information to him, and told the officers and soldiers from all walks of life perfunctorily that they were attacking, and he was drinking Korean rice porridge and chewing mentai fish, and he was already impatient to ask.

"Yamamoru, how is the current battle going? Where is the Japanese army? ”

"Back to the general's words, the Japanese army should have approached Gwangju!"

"What? What about the Jeolla Gyeongsang army on Lee San-hae's side? ”

Before Mao Jue could react, this Jin Zidian had already slapped the table and jumped up, his face was full of anger, and he was so frightened that the six lower officials with a mustache, a slender old face, and eyes narrowed like mice, knelt on the ground as soon as the mountain guard's legs were weak.

"After the disaster of Neilin Mountain, Lord Lee led the Jeolla Provincial Army to retreat to Jeonju, and Lord Shen Yiqian Shen led the Gyeongsang Provincial Army to retreat to Namwon to curb the passage of the Japanese to enter Gyeongsang Province!"

"Idiot!"

Jin Zidian couldn't suppress his anger, reached out and slammed the bowl on the ground, scattering the white rice on the ground.

"What is the difficulty of Neilin Mountain? Where did the Japanese invade go? Now, it's time for Lord Kim to talk to Ben, right? ”

Mao Jue's dissatisfied voice sounded behind him, and the crazy old man stopped smashing things and scolding people, but then he turned around with a little weakness.

It is said that South Korea and Japan are like a pair of enemies, from the map, the Korean Peninsula and Japan are like the fins and maws of a big fish, with the Sea of Japan in the middle.

However, geographically, Gyeongsang-do in the north is closer to Kyushu in Japan, and Jeolla Province belongs to the south.

At the beginning of the war, in fact, the Li Dynasty did not take the Japanese very seriously, after all, the current Japanese are very different from the pirates who were supported by the Warring States Daimyo, and after the establishment of the Tokugawa shogunate, the country was closed and closed, and the pirates became the target of attack, which made their power plummet.

When Kim Zidian got the information about Mao Jue, the Japanese had already begun to attack Jeolla Province, and the Korean party was fiercely fighting, and Lee Sanhae of the South People's Party and Hwang Yoon-gil of the Western People's Party used their respective influences to make the Daoist troops of Jeolla and Gyeongsang Province take the lead in breaking away from King Geon's army and go straight to Jeolla Province to clear the Japanese invaders.

But because the two adults were too confident, after eleven days of painting, 20,000 Dao soldiers rushed to the south from the vicinity of Haizhou in the north, defeated the Japanese who attacked and harassed here near the Jindi, and then pursued all the way to the south, but was ambushed by the Japanese people on Neilin Mountain, the head of Li Dynasty's own kang.

The Gyeongsang former army, which entered the foothills first, was routed by the Japanese in ambush, and 3,000 men and horses were killed and wounded.

But on the way to retreat, another group of Japanese robbers actually emerged from the back of the army, and scattered the two armies at once, there was a strong enemy in front and a chasing soldier in the back, Li Shanhai was still arrogant, and he didn't explain the meaning of the withdrawal to his subordinates at all, and his heart was flustered, and the Li Dynasty's army was completely chaotic.

The Japanese invaders took the opportunity to cover up and kill, I don't know how many fierce Japanese devils rushed into the battlefield with a roar, and a great battle close to slaughter was fought from noon to dusk and sunset, and the army of the Li Dynasty was completely routed, and it is said that as many as 3,000 people were killed.

This is also the reason why Jin Zidian hurriedly begged Mao Wenlong for help, even if the Westerners Party and the Southern People's Party lost, they patted their butts and left, and the mess had to be cleaned up by Jin Zidian and the Dabei faction in charge. In terms of real combat effectiveness, the Korean Taoist soldiers are still too far behind the Ming army, and he needs a corps that is like the Jiashan War, Liu Xingqihu's fierce cavalry to hold the position as the backbone, and lead the Taoist soldiers to fight with the rookies.

Jin Zidian didn't dare to tell Mao Jue the truth, because he was afraid that this little Mao general would be timid and give him a call to return home, and the Li Dynasty's leaders and councilors would not be able to deal with the deputy general soldiers of Dongjiang, so he could only stare dryly at that time.

The old guy learned the battle situation with some frustration, and Mao Jue, who listened to it, also shook his head, and after a while, he spread his hands helplessly.

"Lord Jin, since the Gui Dynasty has fought with the Japanese Invaders, how many people are there in the Wolves?"

"I don't know!"

Mao Jue, who looked like two old guys who looked like Korean ginseng, shook their heads together and looked at Mao Jue really had a headache, Sun Tzu has a cloud in the art of war, knows himself and his opponent, and is invincible in a hundred battles! I don't know who I am, I don't know myself, I will die in every battle! Now the Li Dynasty coalition army is like this, I don't know how many catties and taels I have, and I don't know what the other party's situation is.

Afraid that Mao Jue would regret it, Jin Zidian said hurried again.

"General Xiao Mao, these days in Gunsan County to garrison troops and food, three days later to leave Gwangju, as long as you can hold Gwangju, the old man promised you the military salary and conscription, you will immediately cash, do you think?"

Anyway, he had such a battle goal, looking at Jin Zidian's sad face, Mao Jue nodded reluctantly.

"Let's just follow the rules of the council!"

…………

The soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first! Jin Zidian brought 3,000 men and horses, plus Mao Jue almost 4,000, and in the past few days in Gunsan County, he transferred about 2,000 Taoist soldiers from Cheongju in Chungcheong Province in the north, and gathered 20,000 stone military rations. On the third day, an army of 6,000 troops set out from Gunsan early in the morning and crossed the Dongjin River south to rescue Gwangju, an important town in Jeolla.

Compared with the North Korean Taoist soldiers with a broken jacket and a fork on their backs, Mao Jue's pro-corps is obviously gorgeous, I don't know how much, even if it is a gang, eight hundred people are men with horses to carry heavy loads, these horses are exchanged for this period of time with Houjin Kai Horse Market, two cannons mounted on the adjustable gun rack are pulled by eight strong oxen to pull the gun carriage, and the dry artillery sentry deputy Xiao Chunzi who is like a thin monkey is directly leaning on the gun rack, the army is really a place to exercise people, and now this guy is no longer the timid country boy when he first joined the army, Although it is not decorated, it is still very imposing to hold an arm, and the rest of the private is two columns around the side of the artillery post and leading the horse to block the outermost edge, even if one hand holds the reins of the horse and can't walk the right step, the long-term habit still makes the pro-corps carry the flintlock pistol on the shoulder straight, and even the pace is almost similar.

The neat cotton armor, neat penmanship, and strict military appearance are in stark contrast to the sloppy North Korean soldiers next to them.

Coming out of the mountains, it is also a poor place, but there are few small people in Korea, the local families are still strong, the feudal system is obviously more strict than that of the Ming Dynasty, the peasants are firmly controlled on the land, and they work hard.

However, it was evening when it was almost close to the Golden Causeway, and the traces of the war were also revealed, on the side of the road, a manor had obviously just been burned for many days, and the air was still filled with the smell of charcoal.

Not far from Jindi, with a few cavalry, Mao Jue simply entered the village, the last time the Iron Mountain was swept away, most of the townspeople fled in advance, but there were not many killed, the tragic situation here, Mao Jue is still the first time to see.

"It's really a fucking beast, and the two girls don't let go!"

Even if he was as fierce as Shen Rong, looking at the old man with his tongue sticking out, his eyes were dry, and the little corpse hanging on the tree, he couldn't help but scold.

Mao Jue really wondered if he was a psychopath, and then he played too many horror games, such a miserable situation, he didn't feel too much fear, and ignored the angry scolding under his command, Mao Jue was instead focused on the big banyan tree itself.

The three corpses fell in front of the tree, and on the tree, there were six more big holes in Hessesen, Mao Jue pulled it in, and a heavy, round lead was pulled out, and the palm of his hand pinched the lead, Mao Jue even imagined what happened here in his mind.

Several villagers fled in panic and cries, and immediately at the entrance of the village not far away, a row of fried bean-like sounds sounded, and in the violent trembling, blood mist erupted from the bodies of the three people, several blood holes splashed with bright red liquid, and fell to the ground, and the trees were also shot out of this row of bullet holes.

Mao Jue took a deep breath, the equipment of these would-be robbers is not bad, at least they have very sharp iron cannon muskets!

Throw the lead away, this village has become a dead village and there is no need to stay any longer, Mao Jue was just about to open his mouth to beckon Shen Rong and others to get on the horse and return to the team, this kung fu, the North Korean Taoist brigade that was rolling suddenly stopped its pace, and saw a cavalryman holding a red flag waving wildly, shouting some ancient Korean.

"What did he say?"

"General, he said that Gunsan County was attacked by the Japanese Invaders, and Lord Jin has an order to return to the army quickly!"

The interpreter in the army hurriedly translated, and Mao Jue's eyes widened when he heard this......
