Chapter 637: Plotting against the Ming Dynasty in the Korean Concession Area

The Korean general Li Ze did not expect such a scene in the battle with the Ming army.

Suddenly, the Korean officers and soldiers on their side were like leeks and were frantically harvested by the Ming army.

At this time, he had completely lost any will to fight, but he also forgot to retreat, sat down on the ground in a daze, and muttered:

"Why is this so? Why is this so? Oh, my God! When did Daming become so terrifying! ”

The Korean officers and soldiers had no time to take care of their great general, Li Ze, who was now being shot by the Ming army like live targets.

……

Pull the bolt!

Aim!

Pull the trigger!

Exit the shells!

……

Strafing!

Refill magazines!

Pour out the shells!

……

Bounce!

Aim!

Pull the trigger!

……

The officers and men of the Daming Machine Artillery Battalion and the Infantry Battalion mechanically operated the rifled weapons in their hands.

Some of them were killed as soon as they raised their feet and were about to run, some were beaten to the point of blurred flesh and blood while squatting on the ground, some were staggering on the ground, and some were crying and begging for mercy.

But it doesn't end there.

The Ming Dynasty was an industrialized empire, and the war machine he presented was no longer a simple classical war, but a slaughter of human flesh mixers.

It does not mean that the war is over when the other side reaches the defeat rate, and the other side is defeated and retreats, and the own side is victorious.

This is just the classical way of understanding war inherent in the officers and soldiers of the DPRK.

And the war machine presented by the Ming Dynasty is already a war of mass destruction, a Shura hell that will wipe out hundreds of thousands of people with a large amount of gunpowder and steel.

Since the beginning of the intensive firepower strike with firearms, the brutality of war has escalated again.

Although it is not as devastating as a nuclear war, at least it is no longer as simple as tens of thousands of people shooting at each other.

……

North Korean General Li Ze was shot by tens of thousands of bullets from the Guards Machine Gun Battalion and the Infantry Battalion.

Hit like a fluttering kite, and fell to the ground by the broken wall.

His body was covered with bullet holes and bubbling blood.

His eyes widened, and he still seemed unwilling to watch the defense of Yiju that he had painstakingly managed was broken by the Ming Army, and even killed all his 120,000 Korean officers and soldiers!

More and more Ming troops gathered.

The Sixth Army of the Ming Guards Army has a total of more than 150,000 people, all of whom are steel guns and steel cannons, just like a steel giant beast appearing in Yizhou City, with a feeling of black clouds crushing the city.

However, at this time, there was not a single Korean officer or soldier under the city of Uiju.

The radius of a mile was filled with bullet casings and the pungent smell of gunsmoke.

Suddenly, a heavy rain fell, washing the blood into bright red streams, turning the entire city of Uiju into a red world.

And it just so happened that it was this bright red and hard black that made Daming once again stand proudly on this land.

……

After occupying the city of Yiju and annihilating the 120,000 fresh troops of the Joseon, the Sixth Army of the Ming Guards Army continued to march south towards Heecheon City.

Heecheon Castle is an important city located in the upper reaches of the Datong River.

Once the Sixth Army of the Ming Guards Army occupies Xichuan City, it means that the North Korean city of Pyongyang can be smashed along the Datong River.

At this time, the First Army of the Ming Guards Army had also captured Huining, Qingjin, Sanshui, Jiangjie, Pingshan, Jince, Beiqing and other cities with lightning speed under the personal leadership of Yan Yingyuan, the governor of Northeast China.

The entire North Hamgyong Province except for Hamhung Province is all in the hands of the Ming Dynasty!

Among them, nearly 200,000 Korean troops were killed at the hands of the First Army of the Guards Army.

After all, Yan Yingyuan is a famous general in the Ming Dynasty today, Hong Chengchou, Li Dingguo and other powerful people who have been defeated in his hands, and now that the Ming Dynasty is the most powerful, it is not difficult to defeat several cities in North Korea in less than a month.

At this time, the Korean king of Pyongyang, Yi Hao, and the princes and ministers of North Korea did not know that their country was about to be destroyed.

The king of Joseon, Li Hao, had just learned the news that his Korean soldiers had conquered Jiulian City, and he did not know that the army of the Ming Dynasty had approached the Datong River, and he would be able to attack his Pyongyang city in less than half a month, but he was so excited that his ministers on the spot said:

"You have repeatedly said that we can't mess with the Ming Dynasty, what to provoke the Ming Dynasty is like conspiring with the tiger, and now you see that this is the good news sent by the general Li Ze, Jiulian City has been captured by us, and I believe that soon, our Korean army will be able to capture Tielingwei and Kangzhouwei! Even when the soldiers came to the city of Shenyang and forced the Ming Dynasty to sign an alliance under the city, there was no need to do any more vassals at that time, and Lone could also call himself the emperor! ”

"Wechen congratulates His Royal Highness, but His Royal Highness is now after the expansion of my North Korean army of 600,000, the military expenditure has been insufficient, and the imperial court can no longer increase taxes, otherwise it will inevitably force the people to rebel, and now the Ming Concession has accumulated a lot of wealth after Gyeongju in North Korea, and I heard that its tariff income has reached 10 million silver dollars per year, so Wechen thinks that since we have made a bad deal with the Ming Dynasty, we might as well send troops to recover the Gyeongju that belongs to us, and take back the tariffs controlled by the Daming Maritime Safety Bureau in Gyeongju, so as to solve the situation of our Korean military spending."

At this time, Choi Guoxiao, the supreme ruling civilian official of North Korea, made a suggestion.

And the king of Joseon, Li Hao, thought deeply after hearing this:

"What Aiqing said is extremely true, I have decided that the general Li Jie will immediately send 30,000 troops to recover the tax rights and concession areas of Gyeongju, and all the Han people in Gyeongju will be expelled from the country and their property will be confiscated!"

……

When the Joseon king Li Hao saw that Gyeongju's prosperity and wealth after the Ming Concession had far surpassed his Pyongyang's and began to attack Gyeongju, the Ming Guards Navy's Beiyang Fleet on Guqianluo Island also began to receive a secret order from the Generalissimo's Office from Jinyiwei, and began to plan to transfer the Ming Navy from Guqianluo Island to Gyeongju first, and by the way, plotted to Pusan, for the purpose of obtaining a landing port for the Beiyang Fleet of the Ming Navy.

Guganra Island is a naval base established by the Ming Navy in Korea.

Over the years, the Ming Dynasty has been developing the island, sending more navies, and focusing on training marines, in order to one day facilitate the control of the Korean kingdom itself.

Now there are more than 20,000 Ming marines on Guqianluo Island, which is equivalent to the number of marines in a Ming fleet.

For Daming, Gyeongju must not be returned to North Korea.

After all, Gyeongju is now the hub of the Ming Dynasty's trade with North Korea, controlling the center of North Korea's foreign trade, and bringing a large amount of overseas income to the Ming every year.

There have even been many Ming government and private merchants who have settled here for more than ten years.

The Ming Dynasty had long regarded this place as his own private garden, and how could he tolerate the involvement of the North Korean authorities.

At this time, the garrison corps of the Damyung Concession Area of Gyeongju City had already smelled the smell of North Korea's plot to enrich its own concession area, and had begun to implement a vigilance, pulled up an iron fence, and explicitly ordered that "Koreans and dogs are not allowed to enter!" ”

Goryeo people working in the Daming concession area need to be served by the Ming Dynasty, speak the Ming language, and have a residence permit issued by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security of the Ming Dynasty in order to stay in the concession, otherwise they will be expelled.
