Chapter 251. Knocked on the door?
The corners of Mao Jue's mouth twitched a little, and he was still planning to crusade against the Hamgyong Jurchens, good guy, they came to the door first.
Hamgyong Province, Hamgyong Province, the origin of the name is this Hamhung and Jingzhou, when the original occupation of Hamgyong Province, Lee's North Korea was also based on these two places as an important stronghold, now Mao Jue borrowed land, here is also an important stronghold of Dongjiang and Lee's North Korea, Fan Wenju built a mountain fort in Huangcaoling, north of Hamxing, and radiated the power where the Dongjiang River is located to the small plain of Hamhung, and this is where the accident occurred.
Just three days ago, the Jurchen tribes living in the Loess Slope, Shuangqing, and Xueling areas suddenly attacked Xianxing City, broke through the city, and plundered thousands of people and animals.
Now Xianxing City is still in the hands of the Li Dynasty, it stands to reason that it has nothing to do with Mao Jue, but this matter was actually pushed to the head of the Dongjiang River by the local Li Dynasty, they think that it is a series of reclamation of the Dongjiang River, casting the city, and strengthening the territory resources of the Hamgyong Jurchens, which stimulated these Jurchens to go down the mountain and loot, led by the Hamgyong clan, to send troops to expel the Dongjiang forces.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the local garrison sent a message to White Horse City to ask for help.
To tell the truth, the local Lee Joseon clan is really right, the Lee Joseon is the same as the Chinese, they are a thorough farming people, after occupying Hamgyong Province, the main forces of the Lee Joseon are still entrenched in the small mountain plains next to the avenue, and the mountainous areas are mainly the territory of the Jurchens.
Hamgyong Province is mountainous, with eight mountains, one water and one field, which is one of the reasons why Hamgyong Province is so barren today.
However, Mao Jue does not play cards according to the routine, most of the places invaded by the Dongjiang River are mountainous areas, and unlike the Li Koreans, the main crops of the Dongjiang River today corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes are not picked on the ground, and what flat and mountainous land is planted correctly, so it is difficult to ensure that it does not invade the territory of the Jurchens.
If it is ordinary, it is reasonable that Dongjiang has robbed the territory of the Hamgyong Nuzhen, and if you want to take revenge, you have to find Dongjiang to take revenge, right? However, it is that these Jurchen tribes have not beaten the walled city of the Dongjiang River, but they can't beat it!
These guys are similar to the savage Jurchens on the other side of the Heilongjiang River in Changbai Mountain, the arrows are still made of bone, and there is a serious lack of iron tools, not to mention armor, but all the people sent out by the Dongjiang River to reclaim the land are all trained in military training, and there are also two cheats of reinforced concrete, one village starts the bunker first, and the bunker is repaired in three or four days, and it is equipped with one or two tiger squat cannons, and more than 20 regular troops are eliminated, and the old but can still be used bayonet flintlock pistol, this one or two hundred Jurchens came, As soon as the gong struck, all the people in the village hid in the bunker, and then as soon as the guns were fired, the girl could only look at this turtle shell and be stupid.
Looking at the stupidity is light, some villages have military dependents or businessmen in the village, and the family is worthy of cotton armor while the money is worthy, and they scream to kill him, and they also kill him more than a dozen heads, and take them to the command post in exchange for meritorious rewards, and some are seven or eight tunken villages united together and took the initiative to attack, but they took the Jurchen stockade, and the Dongjiang who was still martial is a ruffian, do these unlucky ghosts of primitive society dare to provoke?
I pick soft persimmons and pinch them, I can't beat you Dongjiang, I'm going to rob you Li Chao Zong, right? In the past six months, the forced and unsuccessful Hamgyong Jurchens have gone down the mountain to attack Lee's North Korea more times than the combined number of decades in history.
It's no wonder that Fan Wenju is in such a hurry to solve the problem of the Hamgyong Nuzhen, he is not afraid of these nomadic peoples, but he is really afraid of making the town of the Li Dynasty cry, and people call them parents.
However, looking at the report, what Fan Wenju was worried about still happened. Xianxing is not a small city, once it caused a backlash from the Li family's Korean court, the pressure on him and Li Shanhai was greater, and when he thought of the old man running to Yizhou to talk to him, Mao Jue was a little bigger.
"Hey, I won't sleep tonight, you go and give an order, let the guerrilla Wen Meng, the general Kong Youde, and the Du Si Tian Tao immediately come to the deputy general Yamen to see me!"
"Mark and obey!"
Troubles one after another, press the gourd to float up, this Toyotomi family has not been solved, and there is a salty mirror road, Mao Jue is irritable and sat back, but holding his chin in a daze, he suddenly opened the mirror box again, and pulled out a large and a small two sides wrapped in mink, the back is made of yellow pear face, Seiko carving, the front is decorated with gems and East pearl mirrors, and the box is packed separately, and the small one is set aside.
After putting the mirror box back into the dark compartment of the bookshelf, Mao Jue immediately pulled the bell, and it was the idiot scholar who had just come in.
"Master, you command!"
"Send this to Madame!"
Looking at the jeweled but incomplete mirror, the scholar's eyes were straight, for fear that he would not be able to take it to the ground, and he would not be able to afford it in his life.
"Come back, do you know which lady to send it to?"
"The little ones know! Know! There is a lady in Mao's mansion, that is a girl in plain clothes, and the little one has gone down!"
Seeing this fart go out of the door, Mao Jue finally shook his head with a sigh of relief.
"I don't owe this girl a favor, do you?"
…………
In other military towns, if you want to mobilize and send troops, it will take at least three to five days to mobilize food and change equipment, but for Dongjiang, it only takes one night.
There are large warehouses on the border, this time Mao Jue brought back more than a million stones of grain, not to mention that it can't be loaded, and he has to be afraid of it, and discuss with the soldiers, use grain instead of real silver to distribute, so that the price of Dongjiang rice has dropped, as for the interior of Dongjiang Town, no village is a military tun, the tun has enough food, the big military tun also has armaments, and the internal march, even the Dongjiang army can go on the road empty-handed.
Fortunately, thanks to the trade with Houjin, Ma Mao Jue is not lacking, originally Phi Island, Yuncong Island and other Dongjiangyuan towns are used as the Li family North Korean horse breeding ground, and now this role has also been restored, now there are as many as 20,000 horses raised on Phi Island, and there are more than 10,000 horses in a small horse farm around the country, if it is not for the lack of capacity on the ship, I am afraid that the war horses will die on a large scale during transportation, and the two wars of the invasion of the Japanese country, the main force is not impossible to do with one person and one horse.
Speaking of morale, other military towns have to mobilize to fight, from the three emperors and five emperors to Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang's expulsion of the Mongols, but in the Dongjiang River, the war rushes to go, a head is thirty taels of silver, and the top two and a half years of silver, and the Dongjiang wants to win too simple, the battle damage rate is still very low, even if you die, the family does not have to worry, today's Dongjiang just happens to have a bit of the taste of the tiger and wolf Qin back then.
Early the next morning, the troops of the three regiments gathered overnight to Uiju, where more than 300 military wagons, field artillery, food, and luggage were temporarily mobilized by the huge sea, and everything was thrown directly onto the wagon, ready to set off at any time.
Early in the morning, Mao's house was also busy, assembly line operations, Maori Sakura this girl also changed her clothes, black and shiny leather helmet, with feathers on it, wearing flexible patent leather armor, and specially for women, she made enough bulges on her chest, and she was not depressed when she was dressed.
Still stubbornly holding her katana, this girl and Mao Jue dutifully shouted at the pro-soldiers riding team, and finally checked the equipment.
Followed by two heavily armored guards, Mao Jue also put on the armor that he had worn for more than half a year, holding his helmet, very imposing of Dong Zhuo and Dong Taishi in "New Three Kingdoms", swaggering out of the mansion, in a carriage, Adriana was the last to sort out the battle map.
"Young master, take care!"
I really didn't expect that just came back, Mao Jue was about to go on the expedition immediately, Su Yi's eyes were slightly red, this time I didn't have a part to go on the expedition, Yu Leer was also a little reluctant to stay behind, which made Mao Jue nod helplessly.
"Don't worry, this time it's not a big war, your young master, I will sit in the Chinese army, just watch the little ones make meritorious contributions, come back in a few days, be good at home!" Come back, young master, I'll bring you a gift!"
"Don't bring back another big beauty!"
Speaking of this, Yu Le'er couldn't help but say sourly, Mao Jue was stunned when she heard it, and then she really laughed embarrassedly.
It's true, this Jiangnan Shandong mobilized troops, brought back Chen Jiao and Yu Leer, went to the Wa Kingdom, and brought back a Maori Sakura, at this rate, although the three palaces and six courtyards can't be talked about, but in a few years, Mao Mansion can also open a mahjong parlor.
But thinking of Chen Jiao, Mao Jue subconsciously glanced back, this woman didn't come out to see off, but she was looking at the second floor of Mao's mansion.
After hesitating, Mao Jue still stretched out his hand and waved at her, obviously surprised, and the next moment, lifting the corner of her skirt, this woman was very dignified to a thousand blessings.
Finally, he came back to his senses and nodded to the two of them, stepped on the hands of the samurai stacked together, Mao Jue turned over and got on the horse neatly, the helmet was buckled on his head, and he shook the reins suddenly, and the cavalry of the brigade played the blood-red Mao character banner and ran up in a dashing manner.
Seeing Mao Jue's figure begin to fade away, Chen Jiao's indifferent and calm face finally showed a little warmth, lowered her head, and a small shiny mirror was in her hands.
In Yiju, Guandao, thousands of infantry were energetically carrying sparkling bayonets and muskets, their armor was neat, and they were tidy, dragging heavy field guns, and the horses were also restless and snorting.
With the blood-red hairy characters marching to the Chinese army, Wen Meng, who had been bored at home for more than half a year, was almost stuffy and moldy, and he pulled out his war knife excitedly, pulling the male duck and roaring.
"Pass the general's order, march into the army!"
