Shuju is just a remote seaport town in Goryeo.
When the city gate was opened, this picturesque and cozy town was instantly surrounded by the iron fire of the Ming army. There was blood, fire, and panicked screams everywhere.
The Ming army poured in like a tide, as violent as a storm, but extremely well-organized. They first occupied the commanding heights of the city, and then transformed into several teams and advanced rapidly along the streets. As long as the Koreans were holding weapons, they were killed by the Ming army.
The city's barracks and grain depots were quickly captured.
The elderly Duke of Xin, Tang He, accompanied the Ming army into the city with the support and protection of several personal guards.
"It's going to cost me my life!"
Tang He looked at the city wailing under the iron hooves of the Ming army, leaned on his crutch and said, "Is there anyone who wants to be an official here?"
Wang Jinglue was covered in blood, and the enemy's flesh and blood was still hanging in the gaps in the armor. He said loudly, "My lord, the sons and daughters have surrounded the Gaoli Mansion Office and are preparing to rush in!"
"Don't kill him if you can!" Tang He said coldly, looking at the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty who were kicking down doors, looting and setting fires along the street, "Send the order, if you can't move the big and famous families in the city, don't move. We still have to move."
We have to rely on others to maintain the ground!"
Wang Jing was stunned for a moment and asked, "Then...the future of the brothers?"
Tang He scolded, "Isn't there enough in the treasury for you to share? After clearing the whole city, is it better to gather all the rich people in the city and ask them to donate money than to rob them? Besides, everyone has hidden their money."
, unless you dig deep, how can it be so easy to find?"
Wang Jing thought for a while, then he couldn't help but stretched out his thumb and said with a smile, "Master, high! Really high!"
Remember https://m in one second.
The soldiers let go and robbed, but they only robbed a bunch of odds and ends from poor people's homes. The rich people's homes had all their money hidden. Where could the brothers find it in this unfamiliar country?
"Let's go to the government office!" Tang Heyun said in a calm tone, "You still have to learn how to fight. When I and the emperor were fighting against each other, they didn't rob things when they saw them. They were all after occupying the city.
, forcing the big family at knifepoint and obediently paying the money and food! One big family is fatter than robbing a hundred poor families!"
As I was walking, suddenly there was a bang from a cannon in front of me, followed by the cheers of Ming soldiers.
"It's broken! It's broken! Rush in and kill!"
Tang He quickly speeded up and rushed over. In front of him was a fortress that was stronger than the surrounding city and made of bricks and stones. The door was wide open and filled with smoke.
The mansions of Goryeo officials were built more solidly than those in the outer city. The circular courtyard walls were full of small holes that could shoot hidden arrows, and there were various bunkers and arrow towers on the walls.
It must have been that after the Ming army entered the city, they couldn't attack it for a while, so they directly pushed in small cannons and opened the gate with one shot.
Compared with the low thatched houses in the city, this mansion was considered magnificent. At this time, the courtyard was filled with the screams of the Koreans and the ferocious shouts of the Ming army soldiers.
"The Duke of Xinguo has ordered to capture the Lord of Goryeo City alive!"
After Tang He entered the house, the guards following him shouted loudly.
But the murderous Ming army was still wreaking havoc in the house. The white window paper was covered with hot blood.
The corners of Tang He's eyes twitched fiercely, and suddenly he pointed his cane to one side, "Catch him and kill him before coming here!"
In the long corridor of the house, a Ming army man dressed as a thousand-family man was holding a Korean woman down. With his big iron fan-like hands, he tore the woman's skirt to pieces in a few strokes, revealing two bare slits.
Slippery legs.
"Come here!" Tang He's soldiers stepped forward and pulled the Qianhu away.
"Fuck, don't be so impatient, I'll come first!" That Qianhu thought he was going to snatch the daughter from him, but then he was woken up by Tang He and several of his soldiers, and was dragged in front of Tang He.
"Are you leading the team? Didn't you hear my military order?" Tang He asked, squinting his eyes and tightening his grip on his crutches.
The Qianhu knelt down and said with some fear, "I really didn't hear you. I'm going to restrain the brothers right now!" After saying that, he ran away in a hurry, shouting, "Don't you fucking grab it."
Come on, find the Lord of Goryeo City quickly!"
The anger on Tang He's face remained unabated, and he cursed, "Damn it, according to my previous temper, I'll just kill him for this bitch!"
Seeing his bad expression, Wang Jinglue said cautiously, "Master, the brothers just want to have fun, why are you so angry! Besides, before the war started, you also said that all the city's property will be distributed to the brothers!"
"I talked about dividing the property, and told them to kill, set fire and abuse women?" Tang He raised his eyebrows, "Is now the time to do these things? The top priority is to clean up the whole city and let this small seaport town be used by the Ming Dynasty.
After the clearing, the army gathered and marched directly into Wangjing of Goryeo. How can we get rid of these things later?"
"The emperor's grandson conquered Goryeo, and he was attacking Goryeo's rebellious minister, the Li family." Tang He continued angrily, "To destroy the country, not to destroy its species. We are here to attack the city, not to massacre it!"
Wang Jinglue was so scolded that he didn't dare to raise his head, but he felt a little disapproving.
The seaport where the Ming army landed was the famous Incheon Port in later generations. In his letter to Tang He, Zhu Yunxi made a very solemn statement that from now on this place would be where the Ming Dynasty would garrison troops, and it would also control the throat of Goryeo. If you can be gentle, don't abuse it.
kill.
Otherwise, if there is no one left to kill, who will do the work in the future?
After killing someone, how can they sincerely be loyal to the Ming Dynasty in the future?
The most difficult part of the war against Goryeo was not fighting, but how to govern. Unite the gentry of Goryeo and grant them some privileges. Be gentle to the local people and make them remember the kindness of the Ming Dynasty.
Absolute iron-bloodedness can only lead to endless resistance from the opponent.
Absolutely iron-blooded, if you bring some kindness and kindness, and give some sweetness, it will not only make the enemy stop resisting, but also cultivate countless minions.
A few years later, when this port was built by the Ming Dynasty and became prosperous, the people here would proudly call themselves Ming people.
"It is my command that all soldiers are not allowed to burn, kill or commit adultery in the city!" Tang He gritted his teeth and said, "Anyone who violates this rule will be killed!"
"Here!" the surrounding soldiers solemnly agreed, and then ran out of the house, shouting along the way to enforce military discipline.
At this time, a cheer suddenly came from deep in the house, "Caught it!"
Then, a group of Ming soldiers dragged a fat man with tears on his face and ran to Tang He, "Master, this fat man is the high official here!"
"Spare my life! Spare my life!" The fat Korean man in white clothes kept kneeling down and begging for mercy, trembling.
"Hey, sir, you don't have to be like this. I am here with Master Wang on the order of the Ming Emperor. I want to conquer the traitors of the Li family of Goryeo and restore the world of Goryeo. I am not here to kill people, set fire, or be a robber!"
Everyone looked at him in surprise. With a smile on his face, Tang He supported the fat Goryeo official with his hands and said kindly, "This is Tang He, the Duke of Mingxin. What is your surname, sir?"
All Goryeo officials are proficient in Chinese characters and can speak some Chinese. The fat Goryeo official, with his body fat swaying, said intermittently, "Xiaguan...Xiaguan Jin..."
.Dingshun...nickname, Jin San!"
He was really frightened. The Ming army's divine soldiers descended from the sky and directly occupied their small seaport town. Moreover, they were led by a prince. With just one order from the other party, his two hundred kilograms would be splashed with blood on the spot.
Tang He smiled kindly and said in a gentler tone, "Brother, don't be so scared. Master Wang came to Goryeo to ask for orders for the people of Goryeo, not to be a villain!" After saying that, he smiled and said, "Master Wang has occupied the city, and this place belongs to the Ming Dynasty.
Dear brother, are you willing to abandon the darkness and surrender to the Ming Dynasty, instead of serving the rebellious and traitorous Li family, and become a minister of the Ming Dynasty?"
The sudden joy fell from the sky, making Jin San so happy that he burst into tears and cried, "Serving the Ming Dynasty is a blessing that I have cultivated for three lifetimes!"
"That's good!" Tang He patted his hand, "I have ordered that after the whole city is cleared, Master Wang will set up camp on the spot. You still need to organize the necessary logistics and other supplies. In addition, post a notice to calm the people.
It’s up to you to calm the hearts and minds of the people!”
"Jin San, let's do it now!" Although Jin San is fat, he is not stupid. He immediately said, "When the civil war in the city subsides, I will immediately summon the government officials to maintain order in the city and serve you at your command!"
"Master Jin, you are truly a good minister of the country. If something happens here, I will definitely report your contribution to the Emperor of Heaven and the Emperor's Grandson!" Tang He laughed again.
In an instant, Jin San was not only no longer afraid, but also a little happy.
If he, a low-ranking official from a small foreign country, could reach the emperor of Ming Dynasty with his humble name, wouldn't he be able to rise to the top in the future?
The Ming Dynasty's conquest of Goryeo has already reached this point, and it will definitely not leave in the future. With the Ming Dynasty, who would still care about being an official of the Li family?
"Don't worry, sir!" Jin Sanyi wiped the tears and runny nose from his face, "I will do my best!"
"Okay!" Tang He smiled, "Then please call the government officials to work quickly. I will send a team of personal soldiers to protect you!" After saying that, he patted the other party's shoulder again, "One more thing, brother, you need to take the city into the city.
The rich and powerful people have also gathered together. Master Wang suddenly arrived. They must have been frightened. I will give them some mercy!"
