Although it is already winter, the Tiandiyuan Waterfall is still rushing; The white Lian-like river water rushed down, stirring up bursts of mist, and also stirring the calm of the Yuanwai River.

Kim Yongtai still sat in his two-person sedan chair, followed behind a large group of Xuanxuan's outstanding officials, and walked towards the dock at the mouth of the Yuanwaichuan River.

The sound of striking iron, the tooth-aching sound of stringing, and the sound of "bang bang" came from the other side of the river and floated into the sedan car, and Kim Yongtai reached out to lift the sedan curtain, and a long row of waterwheels waving their arms like giants jumped into view—it was the Ming people processing steel.

Through the faint winter mist, Jin Yongtai could see that the thin and long wires were pulled out; Thick breastplates were made; The full-page bullet was stamped out...... This gave him a little more confidence.

When the news of the Joseon royal court's imminent conquest of Jeju Island reached Jeongui County, it set off a great wave of waves.

Fifteen thousand troops! Wang Ting's elite! Land and water!

Such words stimulated the sensitive and fragile nerves of this group of officials, and the impatience of the camp head in Dajing County in the west deepened the panic of the officials; A wave of argument that "the imperial court is expropriating the Ming people, let's quickly pick it out" was very noisy, and it quickly spread among the officials.

At the critical moment, Zhu Liangchen, the youngest brother of the Guogong who seemed to be a child, was ruthless: those who dared to spread such remarks in the regimental training camp, whether they were soldiers or officials, were all taken down by him one by one; After more than ten heads landed, Zhu Dujian even led the regimental training camp to battle, and a big battle under Gugen Mountain cut off the black hand stretched out by Dajing County - annihilated more than 100 people and captured more than 100 people, and the battalion head in Dajing County was crippled!

After this battle, Jingyi County returned to peace, and no one dared to have two hearts. Honestly prepare to deal with the North Korean conquest army.

Regarding this kind of view that wants to be watched on the wall when this kind of thing is imminent, Kim Yongtai, like most of the officials, is very scoffing: At this time, you want to draw a line with the Ming people? It's late!

Especially Kim Yong-tae, as the lowest-level official who handles specific details, he knows very well that if Jingyi County leaves the Ming people now, it will immediately collapse - not to mention anything else. Just the part of the officials and officials is now completely supported by the loans of the Ming people!

Jin Yongtai thought that he would be able to repay the Mingren's loan in one fell swoop by relying on this year's horse class, but he still underestimated the generosity of these sub-class officials - the regimental training camp was expanded by 200 people, and the various yamen were also constantly entering people, and there were hundreds of mouths for eating at once, so that the horse class was spent clean as soon as it was recruited!

Not to mention repaying the debt, in order to maintain the operation of the yamen, Jin Yongtai had to borrow money from Mingren again, looking at the rising interest on the account books. Jin Yong was so worried that there were a few more gray hairs - when will I be able to pay off so many debts?!

When she thought of this, Kim Yongtai frowned, and even when she got on the boat at the mouth of the Yuanwai River, she was absent-minded and almost tripped over.

"Brother Jin be careful!" Fortunately, Jun Zhitai next to him was quick and helped him.

When he got on the boat, Jun Ji-tae saw his tightly knit brow, and knew that he was worried about the money again, and couldn't help but laugh and scold. "Brother Jin is still worried about those debts?"

Jin Yongtai shook his head and muttered, "I don't know how expensive firewood and rice are if I don't belong to my family...... We now owe nearly 10,000 taels of silver. The interest rate of each month is two or three hundred taels! ”

"That's a little bit of money! Is it worth worrying about you? Jun Ji-tae laughed and fell, "When we go to Ganghwa Island and help the Holy Lord enter Gyeongbokgung Palace, isn't this money a drizzle?" ”

After speaking, he ignored Jin Yongtai, leaned on the railing and looked at the gradually smaller Jingyi County and said to himself, "The most important thing is now." It's this military discussion...... If this battle is won, it will definitely make Li Liang's traitor frightened...... When the time comes, let's take advantage of the trend, and Ganghwa Island will be able to go down in one go! ”

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Just as the public officials of Jeongui County were rushing to the Susan mansion, a large boat was slowly approaching the dock near Myeongsu-dong in the northeast of Jeju Island.

Tie the cable. After putting down the pedal, a middle-aged man in his thirties with eyes as sharp as an eagle slowly walked ashore, needless to say that he was Li Guozhu from Hazel Island, and he was followed by another head of the family, Yang Tiansheng.

They were greeted by the other three heads of the Mingshui Cave - Lin Sanwa had already gone to the Shuishan Mansion - and the six small characters brought by them were all figures with a bit of face in the East India Company and the Fuliao Army, there were more than fifty in total, and the small dock was stuffed to the brim.

After some greetings, everyone gathered around the two of them along the bluestone road and came to the flower hall of Li Guozhu's newly built mansion to sit down.

After waving off the people, the flower hall fell silent, and everyone knew that the discussion about the future fate of the six families was about to begin.

Since the news of North Korea's imminent conquest spread, everyone in the six major families has been talking about it for a long time, but because Li and Yang are still on Zhudao Island, this matter has not been conclusive - in terms of qualifications, Yang Tiansheng is the leader; In terms of strength, Li Guozhu is the leader, and the two of them are not there, who dares to decide rashly?

"We're here this time, and we're not going to leave in the future!" After Li Guozhu took a sip of tea, he said softly - although his voice was small, it caused a wave in the crowd: he was saying this, he wanted to share the hardships with Chu Fan!

"You little bastard, come out!" As soon as Li Guozhu's voice fell, Yang Tiansheng, who was beside him, put the tea bowl heavily and shouted.

A young man in his twenties in the crowd stood up and walked up to Yang Tiansheng with a white face, lowered his head and called softly, "Dad!" ”

"Get on your knees!" Yang Tiansheng glared at him and shouted, and when he saw the latter obediently kneeling on the ground, he scolded with all his hair, "Do you know what you did wrong?" …… The enemy doesn't know how to take a good **** boat at present, what maggots are chewing in his mouth all day long? …… What do you mean by nothing to provoke North Korea? What do you mean it's over? What does it mean to be improper cannon fodder? ”

Speaking of this, Yang Tian was angry and didn't fight anywhere, and kicked this Yang Di fiercely, "Rebel!" Brother Chu Fan promoted you and asked you to be the captain of this Sea Eagle, and you just dismantled the stage? …… You ungrateful bastard! Have you forgotten who saved your father's life? Lao Tzu won't beat you to death today! ”

Yang Di was not on guard, he was kicked to the ground, covering his head and humming, "Dad! Don't fight! I was wrong! Don't dare again! ”

Seeing that Yang Tian was so angry that the three corpses jumped violently, looking for things everywhere and beating Yang Dimeng, Li Guozhu quickly got up and grabbed him, looked around the people in the house, and then slowly spoke, "It seems that we are old, and no one listens to what we say...... How many times have we repeated it in the letter, fully cooperate, fully cooperate! But there are still people like this kid, muttering those bastard things! ”

Speaking of this, he slowly paced around the room, glaring at the juniors one by one, "How much benefit have we gained since the new aunt came to Hazki Island?" Well? Forgot all? …… Not to mention anything else, just the thousands of acres of land around this Mingshui Cave, where can I find it? …… Stretch out your hand when there is a benefit, shrink your head when there is no benefit, where is this kind of truth in the world, do you talk about it? Do you want to be a **** and want to set up a memorial arch? …… I tell you! I Li Guozhu can't get over here! …… One by one! I really can't understand it? After this battle, the six of us will take root on Jeju Island! …… Eternal inheritance! Do you understand Wanshi Foundation? Give me a snack! ”

As his roar echoed through the room, the little characters who had been disagreeing blushed and showed embarrassed expressions. (To be continued.) )
