In the southern part of Gyeongsang-do Province, North Korea, it is already a hot scene at this time.

After arriving in Seoul, the Joseon Governor-General Su Fu adopted the advice of the Korean military judgment and built a naval barracks and military base in Busan, south of Sanggyeong-do, with the intention of turning Busan into a forward base for the conquest of Japan.

Busan, long before the Imperial War of Imperial Aid Korea, was recognized by the Korean authorities for the importance of this place, and set up a camp of the Sanggyeong Left Province Navy and a number of towns to defend the coast, although these defensive measures were destroyed by the Japanese army in the Imperial War to aid Korea, but after the war, the Imperial Court rebuilt Busan.

Although Busan is not as prosperous as it used to be, it has also recovered a little bit of vitality, and the warships belonging to the Sanggyeongzuo Provincial Navy are quietly moored in the rebuilt naval barracks, and the old-fashioned, emaciated people wield various tools and work together to carry wood, expanding on the basis of the existing camp.

Far from the coast, there are also many people who are busy under the supervision of the overseers, and in a few months the warehouses will be in their hands.

Su Fu, dressed in official uniform, stood on a small hillside not far away, looking at the busy scene below with his hands behind his back, nodding his head incessantly, behind him, the North Korean officials followed left and right with great respect, while the Han officials from China looked as usual, looking at the flattery of the North Korean officials with disdain in their eyes.

"The construction of the Busan area is related to the conquest of the day, and all affairs are mainly based on the conquest, and all kinds of materials and labor food invested in the construction are not allowed to be corrupted.

Su Fu's murderous voice fell into the ears of the North Korean officials, causing the bodies of these vassal ministers to shake, and they hurriedly nodded in agreement, and Shang Qingdao observed that Jin Zhiquan patted his chest even more and promised: "Please rest assured that the lower officials will personally supervise to ensure that no one can interfere with it."

"Preferably so."

Su Fu said lightly, he didn't fully believe these North Korean officials, and it wasn't that there were spies of the Japanese army among them, but their corrupt methods really made Su Fu breathtaking.

For example, he stipulated that the daily food expenses of the laborers involved in the construction should reach at least eight yuan, but under the implementation of the North Korean officials, the laborers were only worth four yuan a day, and they could only eat three coarse grain steamed buns and leftover rotten leaves a day.

If it weren't for Su Fu's sudden visit to the bottom one day, he wouldn't even know that the food of the laborers was actually like this, just this kind of food, let alone labor, he was afraid that he would be cold when he did it.

Su Fu, who found out about this, was furious immediately after he went back, ordered a thorough investigation of the matter, admonished and severely punished the officials who participated in it, and killed the heads of several officials, so as to temporarily curb this corrupt atmosphere.

The Korean governor from the Celestial Empire doesn't care whether you Korean officials are two classes of nobles or not, whether you can move or not, as long as you dare to disobey the governor's will, Su Fu, who is backed by the emperor, will not hesitate to kill.

Such cruel methods made the Korean officials criticized, and the two classes of nobles who thought that they shared the world with the monarch were also very dissatisfied, but they were powerless to fight against the Celestial Empire, and they also knew that the young Korean governor was a royal clansman, so they did not dare to assassinate rashly, otherwise, they would have sacrificed their traditional arts and let Su Fu die violently in Korea......

The Korean monarch Li Hao is happy to see this kind of scene, he has long hated the habit of corruption in the North Korean officialdom, a few years ago under the pretext of supervising disaster relief and the formation of a supervision agency is to crack down on corruption, but he trusted the Han Jiuyi Shi has died violently in the confrontation with two classes of nobles, to this day, only two of the Jiuyi Shi are still alive.

In general, Li Hao was powerless to change all this, and the intervention of the Xia Dynasty's forces and the blow to the two classes of forces was exactly what he wanted to see.

After explaining Shang Qingdao's observation envoy, Su Fu's eyes suddenly turned to the north, and everyone also looked north, and in their sight, a huge army like a long snake winding through the land was slowly moving forward.

As can be seen from the pattern on the battle flag held at the front, this army was the first and fourth towns requisitioned from the country.

The first town is a military town based on the original Zhoushan soldiers and horses, most of its troops are Zhoushan veterans, in addition to using firearms with the enemy to fire volleys, melee hand-to-hand combat is not inferior, after the imperial court took over this army of soldiers and horses, Zhang Mingzhen and other Zhoushan party generals The influence of the generals gradually faded in the army.

The fourth town, is the original Dashun army belongs to the soldiers and horses, in Li Laiheng transferred to Mobei as the capital of the guard after the cut off contact with this army and horses, in the subsequent army reorganization, the fourth town in the former Dashun army soldiers were dismissed, retired and returned to their hometowns, the army was supplemented with a large number of recruits, Dashun's influence is minimal.

The first and fourth towns were the soldiers and horses that the Governor's Office and the Ministry of War decided to put into the implementation of the landing operation against Japan, considering that Japan was densely populated and had a large number of troops, and it was a bit of a big deal to invest in only one town, so for the sake of prudence, they decided to send two towns at once.

In addition to the more than 88,000 soldiers in these two towns, the Korean Kingdom would also provide troops to assist in the conquest of Japan, considering that the Korean army was relatively weak in combat and was afraid that it was not an opponent of the Japanese army, so it did not let it undertake the main battle mission, and only served as an auxiliary to help stabilize the local order.

The first and fourth towns also carried a large amount of baggage, including a large number of canned military food, warm clothes to prevent winter, guns and ammunition, etc., so it was naturally impossible to bring all the baggage supplies at one time, and behind the army, there were long supply lines that spread from the Guannai to the territory of Korea.

If this supply line is placed in the country west of the Yalu River, there is naturally no danger, and after crossing the Yalu River and coming to Korea, the situation will change, the gap between the rich and the poor in North Korea is very large, and there are many people who have fallen into the grass in various places, and the long supply line may be attacked by bandits at any time, so the cavalry brigades of the two towns can only patrol back and forth on the supply line, and cooperate with the pacesetter stations and companies escorting the convoy to defend the supply line.

The arrival of the Xia army soon caused a commotion in the Pusan area, and the busy Korean laborers stopped their work and looked in awe at the mighty and majestic Celestial Empire, many of whom had a yearning in their eyes to join the army, not only to be fed, but also to use the skin to fake the power of the fox in their homeland.

But this can only be said for a while, and when the overseers saw them stop and watch, they all stepped forward and raised their whips at the men, and cursed in their mouths, "Asi, what are you lazy about? If anyone is caught lazy again, they won't eat dinner tonight!"

Under the lash of the overseers, the laborers scattered and threw themselves into the heavy construction, and these laborers had become accustomed to having people sitting on top of their heads and no one thinking of resisting—even in the more than 600 years of the Korean Lye Dynasty, the number of revolts of the common people was very rare.

Seeing the arrival of the imperial army, Su Fu led the officials to meet him and met with the main generals of the two towns.

The first town did not have a commander-in-chief, but was temporarily served by the commander of the first brigade, and the commander of the fourth town was Yiguo Gong Hao Shaoqi, after all these years of peace, he became more blessed than before, and his face was much kinder.

In addition to the two, there was also a pedestrian from Jiangning with a holy decree.

The imperial court's decree was very short, that is, to hand over the command of the first and fourth towns to the Korean governor Su Fu, and ordered Su Fu to be fully responsible for the conquest of Japan.

In addition, the second person was the general of the expedition to the east, and the five people of Fengtongcheng Hou Ma Tengyun, the Marquis of Xingping Dang Shousu, the Marquis of Qihou He Zhen, the Marquis of Fu, and the Marquis of Renshou Tan Yi were the deputy generals of the expedition to the east.

Although the emperor was worried that Su Fu would be in a hurry for the first time to command such a large army, and equipped him with several lieutenant generals, this young man, who was about to run to the third place, undoubtedly became the most powerful person in the entire north after the holy decree was issued.

Su Fu's expression was calm, and after the mountain call was long lived, he took the sword of the holy decree and Shang Fang, and after he stood up, he said to the pedestrians in front of him:

"Please go back and report to Your Majesty, the minister Su Fu will definitely land in Japan, make the whole country of Japan submit, and forever settle the East."

The pedestrian smiled and agreed, and then politely refused the retention of Su Fu and others, and rode back to Jiangning on a fast horse.

It's also funny to say that Su Fu, who is the commander of the whole army, is just a marquis, and the two Zhengdong generals at his next level are both at the national public level, and those deputy generals are also marquis like Su Fu.

The two princes did not dare to have any dissatisfaction with this, they both knew that their national dukedom had a lot of water, this title was rewarded by the emperor of the previous dynasty, and the new dynasty was opened, and His Majesty did not take back the titles of these generals with a background in the righteous army It is already the greatest reward.

How can they dare to be dissatisfied? They could only secretly make up their minds that they would rely on this war to make their titles well-deserved and block the mouths of the court.

As for the marquis below, what they think in their hearts, the two princes are not clear, if any of them can't see their situation clearly, and want to contradict this royal family, it can only be said that the friendship that fought side by side in the past helped to play the round, but if they are still obsessed, then it is none of their business.

But fortunately, those who have survived until now are not stupid, no matter what they have in mind, at least on the bright side, they have shown great respect for Su Fu.
