Seven thousand iron cavalry, just half of the strength of the Yellow Banner of the Golden Front.

In addition, Zhenghuang Qi is a Houjin Imperial Forest Army that is completely subordinate to Huang Taiji. As soon as Huang Taiji's order was issued, the Zhenghuang Banner soldiers scattered all over Houjin began to assemble and prepare for the next dispatch.

During this time, the first batch of 2,000 tunnel-fired muskets specially sold by the Haw Par Army and built to save labor and materials have entered North Korea to equip the new Korean army......

Just after the intermittent gunfire began to ring out at the new Korean army garrison outside Pyongyang, the Houjin 7,000 Yellow Banner Iron Cavalry finally completed the assembly, and under the order of Huang Taiji, they attacked North Korea......

In less than two days, after 7,000 years, all the Jin Tie cavalry entered the territory of North Korea.

In the absence of firearms, the officers and men of the North Korean army defending various places, in the face of the suppression of Houjin cavalry, had no chance to resist except for being passively beaten......

Under such circumstances, the two checkpoints in front of the Houjin Tieqi did not hold on for even two days, and they were destroyed by the Houjin Tiecai, and the whole army was annihilated.

And it was not until this moment that Ren Zu, who was located in Pyongyang City, learned the news of the large-scale invasion of the Houjin Iron Cavalry from the mouth of the defeated soldiers at the scene......

Later Jin made two consecutive raids on North Korea, although they both paid a certain price, especially the second one, which was almost completely lost. However, all the North Korean officials standing in the main hall knew that these results were achieved by the 500 Tiger and Leopard Army garrison, and had nothing to do with them.

Therefore, in the eyes of these North Korean civil and military forces, with the current military strength of North Korea, even the two thousand post-Kim Tie Cavalry are not opponents. What's more, the elite of the 7,000-year-old Jin Zheng Yellow Banner ......

King Im Tsu of Joseon. Although after hearing the news. Didn't say a word......

However, from the changing expression on his face, everyone could clearly feel that King Ren Zu's heart was weak at this moment......

Just when the atmosphere in the main hall became more and more heavy, as the king, Ren Zu had to open his mouth to break this solemn atmosphere.

"Why don't you talk anymore...... Could it be that the seven thousand Jin Tieqi has already scared you stupid...... The garrison of the Tiger and Leopard Army, which has less than 500 people, can defeat the 2,000-strong gold and iron cavalry...... And we still have 20,000 soldiers in our hands. Could it be that 20,000 soldiers can't beat the 7,000 post-Jin Tie cavalry...... Where did all your courage go......"

After Ren Zu's series of questions, all the ministers of civil and military affairs showed a look of shame from the bottom of their hearts, lowered their heads, and said nothing......

Faced with this situation, Ren Zu's face immediately became gloomy......

However, in the face of Houjin's large-scale invasion, he had to continue to shout......

"Are they all deaf and dumb...... General Kim, now half of North Korea's forces are in your hands. And it is also the 10,000th new army with the strongest combat effectiveness in North Korea...... You're in the face of a massive invasion by Houjin. What are we going to do? ”

"Is it just that we are indifferent to watching the whole of North Korea occupied by the Kim Iron Cavalry little by little, you know, we have only one North Korea now. If even North Korea is lost, then North Korea will be completely finished......"

As the number one general of North Korea, if he can't stand up at this moment, then North Korea will really be finished.

Therefore, as soon as Ren Zu's words were finished, General Jin Lao replied: "Your Majesty, although the new army has only been training for ten days, and it is only equipped with two thousand muskets...... However, for the sake of Korea and for the sake of the king, the new army is willing to stand up and resist the invasion of the Houjin Iron Cavalry......"

"The old minister is here to promise...... As long as there is still one of the 10,000 officers and soldiers of the New Army alive, we will absolutely not let a single Houjin cavalry kill people and prevent arson on our Korean soil......

In the face of General Jin's sonorous and powerful assurance, Ren Zu's gloomy face finally revealed a heartfelt smile.

While breathing a sigh of relief, he promised loudly to General Jin......

"General Kim is worthy of being the number one general in my North Korea...... Since General Jin and the officers and men of the new army can not even take their own lives, then I am also here to give you a guarantee......

"For the sake of victory, for the sake of the future of North Korea, General Kim can put forward all the conditions he wants, as long as I can meet them, I will definitely satisfy everyone's ......"

General Jin did not hesitate, and said directly...... "Your Majesty, the old minister does have an idea here...... Although Lao Chen has been in the army for decades, the battles he has commanded are all cold weapon battles. As for firearms, Lao Chen may not even be as good as a company commander in the Haw Par Army......"For the sake of the smooth progress of the battle, Lao Chen implored Admiral Wang to hand over the command of the 10,000 new army to Commander Chen of the Haw Par Army. As for the old minister, he served as the temporary deputy commander, assisting and learning from the ...... of commander Chen commanding the battle."

To Ren Zu's surprise, he hadn't opened his mouth yet, and some generals who had not joined the new army, who both loved and hated the new army, and were full of worries, rushed to veto it......

"No, this is my war in Korea, and it must not be handed over to a tiger and leopard army to command...... 10,000 new troops, accounting for half of North Korea's military strength, how can they be handed over to a Ming Dynasty man with confidence......"

It was just time to prepare to fulfill his promise and promise Ren Zu to General Jin.

After hearing these concerns, he also became hesitant. After all, this is related to whether North Korea can survive this crisis, the safety of half of North Korea's military strength, and the life and death of the entire Yi dynasty......

However, General Jin's next words directly dispelled the worries in Ren Zu's heart......

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that these worries are not too threatening to us......

"Lao Chen wants to ask everyone, which is more beneficial to the Tiger and Leopard Army compared to a complete North Korea or a North Korea that exists in name only......"

"Of course, it's a complete North Korean ......," Ren Zu replied without thinking......

"Not to mention anything else, the more than one million taels of silver that North Korea needs to supply every year is the most direct benefit. Once North Korea falls into the hands of Houjin, then there will be no ...... for more than a million taels of silver."

Speaking of this, Ren Zu directly showed a sudden expression of realization on his face, and affirmed loudly......

"I understand that even if it is for their own interests, the Haw Par Army will wholeheartedly help me and North Korea tide over this difficult time......

Old General Jin nodded in affirmation: "The king is wise...... The old minister thought that he should not only hand over the on-site command to Commander Chen, but also ask for help from the Liaodong Tiger and Leopard Army...... Since our DPRK has to provide supplies to the Haw Par Army every year, then the Haw Par Army should assume the responsibility of protecting us......" (To be continued...... R1292
