Chapter six hundred and thirty seventh new opponent

Zhao Yun was not wrong. Although the conditions proposed by the prince were very strict. http: However, the North Korean King Ren Zu still accepted it.

On the one hand, it was because of fear of continuing to fight, North Korea would really die in its own hands. On the other hand, it was because of the temptation of the huge firearms needed by the 10,000 firearm troops.

Lord Wang, a representative sent by North Korea, has just returned to Pyongyang for a day.

After continuous losses, the Tiger and Leopard Army, whose total strength was less than 10,000, evacuated from Pyongyang with all kinds of wealth that had been plundered from Pyongyang for half a month.

When Ren Zu brought 20,000 remnants and finally returned to Pyongyang.

In front of him, except for the still intact royal palace, the vast city of Pyongyang almost turned into a dragon city.

Ren Zu, who was about to cry but not tears, could only clench his fists and curse the tiger and leopard army in his heart.

Of course, he also thought that since the Tiger and Leopard Army had plundered so much wealth in Pyongyang City, could he have less compensation from the Tiger and Leopard Army?

However, this idea was denied by Ren Zu himself as soon as it appeared.

You should know that although the Tiger and Leopard Army withdrew from Pyongyang City, it did not withdraw from North Korea.

The elite troops of less than 10,000 people were stationed in a small town less than fifty miles from Pyongyang, waiting for North Korea to send the money.

It can be imagined that once they go back on their word, these tiger and leopard troops will launch a second siege battle without hesitation and capture Pyongyang again.

After his battle with the Tiger and Leopard Army, and witnessing the Tiger and Leopard Army's battle to eliminate tens of thousands of Japanese pirates with his own eyes, the strong combat effectiveness of the Tiger and Leopard Army has been deeply reflected in Ren Zu's heart. Even if Ren Zu gave Ren Zu ten courage, Ren Zu did not dare to be an enemy of the Tiger and Leopard Army again when North Korea was the weakest.

Because that is not a battle, it is self-destruction...

So, as soon as Ren Zu returned to Pyongyang, he began to plunder silver in North Korea, which was still in his control.

In his eyes, if you raise 10 million taels of silver earlier, the powerful enemy of the Tiger and Leopard Army could evacuate North Korea earlier.

Ten days later, Zhao Yun, who received the money, did not break the appointment. He directly withdrew from North Korea with the harvest.

At the same time, a musket battalion that helped North Korea train troops also entered Pyongyang under the order of Zhao Yun. Help North Korea to select troops and train troops...

In a blink of an eye, another ten days have passed.

Zhao Yun, who had been expeditioning North Korea for more than a month, finally led the army back to Northern Zhili.

As for Zhao Yun, he took the harvest and went directly to Beijing City and reported to Beiwang Weizheng.

In the Northern Palace Conference Hall, although Zhao Yun sat opposite Wei Zheng, he was also a veteran brought by Wei Zheng.

But at this moment, not only did he not see any ordinary freedom from his body, but he even saw a hint of nervousness.

After all, this was the first time Zhao Yun had acted alone since he followed Wei Zheng.

If you can get Wei Zheng’s recognition, it proves that you are still valuable in the Tiger and Leopard Army, and you are not scrambling to live on your qualifications.

Therefore, after Wei Zheng finished reading the gains and gave a very positive answer, Zhao Yun's face was covered with excitement. Then, he took out two million taels of silver without hesitation to fulfill Zhao Yun's promise to his subordinates.

However, what puzzled Zhao Yun was that he thought Wei Zheng would ask more about the negotiation process.

However, Wei Zheng did not discuss this issue much.

Instead, he directly shifted his attention to the battle between the Tiger and Leopard Army and the Japanese pirates.

"Old Zhao, you are the only general in my Tiger and Leopard Army who has fought with the Japanese pirates... Based on your observation on the battlefield, what do you think of the Japanese pirates' combat effectiveness..."

"It's very powerful, and it can even be said to be comparable to the Later Jin Tartars... No, it should be said to be more powerful than the Later Jin Tartars..." Zhao Yun, after a brief contemplation, answered without any scruples.

Then, something seemed to have come to mind?

A look of lingering fear appeared on his face, which was still excited just now.

He continued to say to Wei Zheng: "If we hadn't taken the risk of taking the initiative to attack, our Tiger and Leopard Army would have paid a heavy price for darts, rather than less than two thousand people now..."

"In addition, there is another very important factor in the reason why this big battle ended so quickly, that is, the Japanese pirates were not prepared and underestimated the enemy too much for our Tiger and Leopard Army."

"If they knew the true combat effectiveness of our Tiger and Leopard Army and were well prepared, then we would never win so quickly and lose so little... and even more, it is possible to defeat us directly on the battlefield..."

At this time, Wei Zheng could not see the smile he had just now on his face.

On his solemn face, because Zhao Yun said, he fell into deep thought.

I don’t know how long it took, but Wei Zheng, who suddenly reacted from his meditation, asked Zhao Yun directly: “If you are asking you to fight a battle with the Japanese pirates, will you win? What conditions are needed…”

Zhao Yun was stunned for a long time to react to this question.

When he confirmed that Wei Zheng was not joking, he immediately realized that he seemed to have another battle to fight. And the opponent in this battle was probably the Japanese pirates...

In this case, Zhao Yun would of course give a positive answer without hesitation.

However, Zhao Yun, who had seen the combat effectiveness of Japanese pirates, was not so arrogant that he ignored the combat effectiveness of Japanese pirates.

The affirmative answer to Wei Zheng just said, and then added: "However, I do have a requirement here, that is, to further increase the number of artillery in the army... It is best to be equipped with a company level, otherwise, it will not be able to stop the Japanese pirates' shield chariots and shields..."

Wei Zheng nodded and affirmed: "You can... the artillery house built in the recent period will be equipped for you..."

Hearing this, Zhao Yun became even more sure of his judgment.

He asked Wei Zheng tentatively: "Prince, do you want to fight against Japanese pirates..."

Wei Zheng did not hide it and said directly: "That's right, during the period when you went to war, you have been plundered by Japanese pirates on the coast of Shandong many times... If you don't retaliate, the arrogant Japanese pirates really think that our Tiger and Leopard Army is afraid of them..."

At this moment, Wei Zheng had a sentence in his mind that he had not said...

The fight against Japanese pirates, on the surface, is to retaliate against the Japanese pirates' plunder on the coast of Shandong.

In fact, this is just one of the existing ones that the Tiger and Leopard Army sent troops to Japanese pirates.

The real reason is that there are three things Wei Zheng is very jealous on the Japanese island where the Japanese pirates are...

Silver ore, copper ore, sulfur...

And these three things are exactly what the Tiger and Leopard Army lacks.

Therefore, when Wei Zheng received the news that the Japanese pirates plundered the coast of Shandong, he was angry and had a hint of surprise in his heart.
