In the history of the Yi dynasty in Korea, Yi Yi was known as an indecisive monarch.

He had the heart to fight against the powerful Xungui faction, and he also knew how to use the power of the Shilin faction, but he lacked the determination and courage himself.

Zhao Guangzu's relationship with him is also a relationship between a teacher and a friend, and it is also a counselor for a series of his policies.

At this moment, Li Yi listened to Zhao Guangzu's words extremely much, but as long as he encountered the Xungui faction, he would fall into hesitation again.

When he learned that Eastern Qin was menacing and demanded Jeju Island, Li Yi was almost speechless with fright.

The defeat of the Ming Dynasty at the hands of the Eastern Qin Dynasty shocked the whole country, and they were initially afraid that the Huang people would come to North Korea.

As a result, a few years have passed, and the people are very well-behaved, and in North Korea, there are already many goods from the Eastern Qin, and even in Li Yi's own palace, there are many things from the Eastern Qin.

The bustling trade and well-behaved and polite people in the port made North Korea forget its initial shock and fear.

At this moment, a national letter has once again ignited this fear.

Li Yi said anxiously: "Zhao Qing, what can I do about this?" ”

Zhao Guangzu sighed and said: "Your Majesty, for the sake of today's plan, you can only choose to let it go!" The Honorable faction will definitely take the opportunity to beat, and then we must insist on not letting Jeju Island to the death! But you can't really offend the people, otherwise you really want to fight, and with the soldiers of the people, you only need to land in the harbor of Haiying, and you can reach the capital of my king in one day. ”

Li Yi lowered his eyes and thought for a while: "You can't offend the people, and you have to not give up an inch of land, this is ......."

"The minister knows that he is in a dilemma, but the current plan can only be barely maintained! If it is really lost in the hands of His Majesty, then the Xungui faction will be abolished again, and how should Your Majesty deal with itself? ”

"What Zhao Qing said is true!" Li Yi sighed and said: "These noble factions are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and they want to make everyone know about such high-profile propaganda. It's just that...... Barely maintaining it is not a long-term solution, Zhao Qing can't think of a better way? ”

Zhao Guangzu said: "I can only barely maintain it first, and then go to the Ming Dynasty to see if I can maneuver one or two!" If...... If the matter really reaches the point where it cannot be handled, you can abandon Jeju Island, recognize Eastern Qin as the suzerain, and accept its canonization, so that your majesty's throne can be secured! ”

"No!" Li Yi stood up in shock: "Recognizing the people as the suzerain, where does the face of the ancestors exist?" What's more, it has become a tradition for our dynasty to serve the Central Plains Dynasty, and it is easy to change the court, how can we withstand the thunderous anger of the Ming Dynasty? ”

"So, that's not the way to do it!" Zhao Guangzu closed his gaze and said: "If Da Ming doesn't dare to make decisions for us, it means that Da Ming is afraid of the people!" And if the Zombies really want to raise troops to attack, how can we withstand the blows of the Zombies? If it really comes to this point, we can recognize the Huang people as the suzerain, but we can protect the whole country, Your Majesty has the canonization of the Huang people, and the noble faction will not dare to do anything to you! ”

Li Yi took a long breath and nodded in agreement.

He was very afraid in his heart, not only afraid of the people, but also afraid of losing the face of his ancestors, and afraid of the anger of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhao Guangzu can give a straightforward solution, which is undoubtedly easy for an indecisive monarch to become a confidant.

It's just that Zhao Guangzu thinks more long-term, in his opinion, Jeju Island has no problem with Eastern Qin, if he can use an island in exchange for the recognition and support of Eastern Qin, then whether it is the Xungui faction or the Daming faction, they will have to re-examine the lord of the country.

In this way, the island is a good deal.

Therefore, he was also prepared to ask the lord of the country to secretly send a letter and talk about this matter with the monarch of Eastern Qin.

…………

On the other side, the Eastern Qin Task Force was sailing in the middle of the northern route.

The flagship is the Qinhuang, and at this moment, on the highest mast of the ship, the surveyor is holding a sextant, measuring the dimensions.

The sextant is composed of an indexing arc, an indicator arm, a moving mirror, a fixed mirror, a telescope and a micrometer, and the arc length is about one-sixth of the circumference.

This is also another replica of the Department of Physics of the Eastern Qin Dynasty, which is an optical instrument after the refractive telescope.

The principle on which it is based is also very simple, that is, the angle of reflection of the light is equal to the angle of incidence. The advantage is that dimensions can be measured anytime, anywhere.

I saw that the three surveyors on the mast, after a period of drumming, immediately asked people to raise the flag, so that the rudder was 4''1 degrees to the west.

The sailors at the helm immediately executed, and the fleet was on the surface of the sea, drawing a graceful arc.

Sailor Li Jian, who had been promoted to first-class staff officer, was standing on the side of the ship at this moment, holding a telescope and looking at the sea in the distance.

The work of a staff officer is very miscellaneous, the most important thing is to assist the captain, make judgments, and make tactical recommendations.

This time it was Jeju Island that was going to be attacked, and Li Jian did not study much about the landing operation, nor did he study much.

However, at the end of last year, he made a report on the tactics of the battle line.

That is, it is stipulated that when conducting naval battles, eight warships are used as an example. Generally around two or one main ship, divided into three detachments, each detachment of two or three ships, with the main ship as the center, the three fleets are guaranteed to be spaced at twice the range of naval guns, and at the same time the orientation should present an irregular zigzag, the angle between 120 and 160 degrees respectively.

This tactic is to maximize the superiority of naval artillery when the ships and artillery are superior.

Moreover, the increase in the number of ships only needs to be reorganized according to this basic establishment.

Although it has not yet experienced actual combat, this tactic can indeed improve the attack effect of naval artillery in the exercise.

Li Jian relied on this achievement to become a first-class staff officer, and it is estimated that in a few more years, he will be able to get a glimpse of the position of deputy captain.

It's just that he is not enthusiastic about being a captain, he originally wanted to fight a naval battle in a dignified manner, but now he is eager to fight the fiercest wind and waves.

After driving for about half a day, Li Jian saw a black spot in the distance from the telescope.

As the black dot approached, a large green island appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and this was Jeju Island.

Li Jian put away his binoculars, held his saber and said, "Another natural sea supply station!" ”

Two sailors came over with a map, and there are three cities on Jeju Island, Jeju Museong to the south, Daejeong County to the east, and Jeeui County to the west.

Comparing the map, Li Jian soon saw a mountain, which was the Halla Mountain marked on the map.

From a distance, the outline of Jeju Island is almost oval-shaped, as if it has been polished, and there is no coastline in the rugged area, and the center of the island is Mt. Halla, which is 1,190 meters above sea level.

The dimension is equivalent to the Shandong Peninsula, but there is a warm current passing through it, and the climate is close to the subtropical climate, very warm and humid.

In later generations, more than 500,000 people lived on this island, and it was a real resort.

After several confirmations, the ship's surveyors quickly raised the flag and sent the fleet to the northeast of Jeju Island.

"There's beacon smoke on the island!"

"Don't worry about it, go straight to Jeju Port!"

Fourteen large ships of the Eastern Qin Dynasty rushed directly into the port of Jeju, and while opening artillery bombardment, they lowered the small boats.

Jeju Island also has a North Korean naval division, but the capital ships are all sampan-style sampan boats, and they basically have to be cool after a shot.

The sailors had no intention of resisting, and abandoned their ships as soon as the battle began.

…………

Jeju Museong, the highest governor of the island, the official title is "Jeju Soldiers, Horses, Sailors, and Naval Envoy and Jeju Pastoral Envoy".

At this time, Jeju Governor's name was Lee Jung-sun, and from the perspective of generation, this was Li Yi's grandfather.

He was shooting arrows for fun, and there was no entertainment on the island, so he shot arrows while letting his concubines serve and drink.

A roar disturbed his purity, and he frowned as he sent someone to find out what was going on.

Before he could go out, a soldier rushed in in a panic and said, "Oh no! Pastoral ...... Adult, ...... The soldiers are here, and the port has been lost! ”

"What?" Li Zhenshun stood up with a swish, and just wanted to take a bow and arrow to meet the enemy, and hurriedly asked, "How many people are here?" ”

"I don't know! Too...... It's terrible, the iron ball with a big head, flying around without long eyes...... "The soldier has more than one season."

Li Zhenshun hesitated for a while, then threw away the bow and arrows and said, "Quick, retreat to Dajing County!" ”
