Chapter 212: News of the Battle of Ning Jin!
When Mao Wenlong was still alive, he often used the counterattack on Houjin as a reason to fight the autumn breeze on Phi Dao and other islands to build military bases. Think about it this way, those islands in the sea are said to belong to North Korea, but in fact, they are often controlled by the Ming people.
Moreover, Mao Wenlong not only did not pay any rent for the island, but also asked North Korea to supply grain and grass in turn.
Thinking of this, the king of Joseon peeked at Zhu Zilong, who was there again.
I thought, this Dragon Marquis of the Four Seas here, if his words count. Then it is equivalent to the fact that Jin is the same after he replaces Mao Wenlong to occupy the island and counterattack, and there are two more benefits. The first is not to use the DPRK side to supply grain and grass, and the second is to return the rent to the DPRK side for the islands.
Well, if you calculate it this way, it seems that no matter what aspect it is, it doesn't seem to be too much waste, but there are benefits to it.
Between countries, in addition to affection, there is also the principle of the supremacy of interests.
Moreover, if you take Mao Wenlong's example to explain to your subjects, you will not weaken your prestige, after all, there is a precedent. Why not?
The more the king of Joseon, Li Liang, persuaded himself, and his face gradually improved. The North Korean officials on the side seemed to have thought of this, and the look of anger on their faces had long since disappeared.
Of course, it's one thing to figure it out. But if you don't bargain, you will show that your side is too passive.
So, the king of Joseon hinted at the princess with a look.
The latter husband and wife are concentric, and they can understand it with one eye. So, in the next minute, the Korean princess said to Zhu Zilong in a pleading voice: "Son-in-law, can't the lease period of Shenmi Island and Yamato Island be reduced a little more?" ”
Looking at the pleading eyes and red and swollen beautiful eyes of the Korean princess, Zhu Zilong seemed to be moved, and replied with a sigh: "That's it, the little son-in-law will take a step back." The lease term has been reduced from three digits to two digits, and ninety-nine years is good! ”
Cloth!
Hearing Zhu Zilong's words, the king of Joseon just swallowed the water and wine in his mouth to quench his thirst, and directly squirted out.
Nima, the Dragon Marquis of the Four Seas, can you be a little more shameless?
The first hearing that the three-digit number was reduced to two digits was a great joy. After all, three digits to two digits are generally equivalent to a tenfold drop. But, but, but, what the hell is 100 and 99?
Although these two numbers are also the difference between three digits and two digits, the difference between them can almost be ignored, okay?
Haven't the Ming scholars and high-ranking officials always advocated face and etiquette first?
Why didn't this Hou Ye play cards according to the routine at all?
At this moment, not only the king and princess of Joseon were speechless, but all the North Korean officials also felt that they were messy in the wind.
However, in the ensuing rip-off.
Everyone found that don't look at this Dragon Marquis of the Four Seas is full of smiles, but the bottom line of the lease period of 99 years is to bite the bullet and not let go.
Helplessly, for the sake of national security and hugging Daming's golden thigh, the North Korean side finally had to agree to Zhu Zilong's unreasonable demands and jointly signed an agreement.
The agreement said that North Korea was willing to lease the island of Omiya and the island of Yamato to the Ming Kingdom for 100 years at a price of 10,000 taels of silver per year. During this period, the Ming Dynasty and Zhu Zilong had the right to dispose of anything on the island and had free semi-sovereignty, and the ownership of the island was returned to Korea a hundred years later.
With your will, the agreement quickly passed the review of both parties.
When the signature and seal of the supreme leader of the North Korean side appears, the agreement is officially in force. Although the signatory on the Ming side was Zhu Zilong, the Dragon Marquis of the Four Seas of Shandong, no one raised any doubts about this, as if this was a matter of course.
After signing the agreement, Zhu Zilong smiled and said, "Your Highness, Princess, don't worry." We will dispatch sailors and garrisons on Minami Island and Yamato Island as soon as possible, and we will definitely help with the security of North Korea. ”
See clearly, just help, not take full responsibility.
Zhu Zilong has something to say in this, in case you can't beat it, I'm sorry, I can't help, I'll run first. Ha!
The North Korean side only smiled bitterly, and everyone realized that the Dragon Marquis in front of them was definitely an alternative general of the Ming Dynasty. The humility and so-called gentleness of the Ming literati have absolutely nothing to do with him!
"It's really not easy, the North Korean military base is finally in hand. That's not the end, though, just the first step! Back in the barracks, Zhu Zilong muttered to himself.
In the modern 21st century, the United States has 41 military bases in South Korea. The total strength is about 7.2-100,000 people!
Looking at the Ming Dynasty in 1626, it was definitely one of the strongest powers in the same century, and even NO1.
However, it is normal for Zhu Zilong, like the US military, to station a military base in the territory of the Li Dynasty on the Korean Peninsula in ancient times.
At the same time as Zhu Zilong's side won a big victory for North Korea.
On the sixth day of the first month, at two o'clock, a horse galloped to Guangqumen, the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
The messenger brought news of the border pass, and Yuan Chonghuan led the army to avoid the enemy's strengths, attack the enemy's shortcomings, and rely on the city to defend and gradually forge ahead. Fight against the Houjin army and join forces under the city of Jinzhou!
On the afternoon of the 12th, Houjin launched a general attack on Jinzhou, concentrating the main force to attack a corner of the west of the city.
However, Zhao Shu and Yuan Chonghuan cooperated tacitly, recognized Huang Taiji's intention to break through the west of the city first, and urgently transferred the main force of the Ming army defending the city on three sides to block the enemy in the west city, and returned fire with artillery fire and arrows.
After 14 days of fierce fighting, Jinzhou remained unmoved.
Huang Taiji wanted to fight but couldn't, so he had to move his troops to attack Ningyuan. The Shi Ming army sent the general soldier Man Gui to lead 10,000 Guan soldiers to Ningyuan for reinforcements, and You Shilu and Zu Dashou led the east to attack the enemy's back.
On the 29th, Huang Taiji attacked Ningyuan and failed, returned to the division and attacked Jinzhou again, because the moat was wide and deep, the sky was steaming, and the soldiers were killed and wounded. Finally withdraw the army!
Zhu Zilong, who got the first time and front-line intelligence.
He sighed softly, with a look on his face that was as expected.
"Sure enough, for the extraordinarily large historical process, I, a butterfly who is still in the growth period, will not have much impact. After all, the Battle of Ningjin ended with the victory of the Ming Dynasty, just like in history. ”
Ningjin was victorious, Zhao led the teaching in Jinzhou, Mangui was in Ningyuan, fought bravely, and made great contributions. Yuan Chonghuan is secondary!
In the Liaodong region, Yuan Chonghuan is not the number one at present, and the theoretical number one should be the minister of King Jinglu, and Yuan Chonghuan is only a second-in-command. In fact, according to the latest intelligence, Yuan Chonghuan basically set Wang Zhichen in the air, and he is the actual leader behind the scenes!
In addition, various other situation reports show that Zhu Zilong is now in his heart, and he has already branded Yuan Chonghuan as a warlord who has long planned to turn the Guan Ning army into a warlord.
This person, from the original half-loyal and half-traitorous person in history, is now completely on the side of the traitorous minister.
However, on the surface.
He is more like a loyal minister than in the original history. And on the other hand, Wei Zhongxian, who lowered Zhu Zilong's power, has also been fighting with him recently, and there are many connections in secret.
Zhu Zilong, who was a little entangled, put down the intelligence book, locked the window, called his henchmen to guard the door, and slept on the bed.
Come to think of it, the good news over there is also going to Jingshi, right?
The emperor can't win a big battle in the border army, and he still sleeps a lot at an important time, right? Gotcha, get up and get to work! -
