“Can the land in Nurgandusi be used to grow food?”
Judging from Zuo Mengeng's knowledge, it is definitely possible.
Not only was it possible, it was also a famous granary for later generations.
But now is the Little Ice Age, and the climate is different. Whether we can grow food requires on-site investigation.
Being able to plant and being unable to plant will lead to different results in Shandong's layout of Nurgandusi.
"Well, next time the fleet passes by, let the Ministry of Agriculture send some people to follow. If food can be grown there, it will solve our big trouble."
Zuo Mengeng proposed a safe approach.
Whether it works or not depends on reality.
This opinion was unanimously agreed by everyone.
As for the control and management of Nurgandusi, it has been put on hold for now until the Ministry of Agriculture makes a judgment.
Even Shanhai and others also settled in Shandong.
Lian Shanhai successfully entered the military academy and became a student in the junior class. The vast military knowledge here opened up a whole new world for him, making him reluctant to miss Shu.
Heishui also joined the army, and indeed he did not receive any preferential treatment. He started as an ordinary soldier.
This kind of simple and brave people are the most popular in the army, and I believe they will definitely be successful in the future.
Dahu was left in the Commander-in-Chief's Mansion by Zuo Menggeng and went to school together with Zheng Chenggong. In his free time, he could also hear his personal teachings.
In a turbulent era, it is destined not to be a leisurely life.
In the coldest season, Susa and Mafuta led Hou Jin's envoy team across the Yalu River.
North Korea felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy and urgently discussed countermeasures.
"Your Highness, when these two people come, they will definitely ask Your Highness to write a letter to flatter Huang Taiji and proclaim himself emperor."
Li Zhu looked anxious and flustered.
"That being the case, is there any good strategy?"
The person who proposed the solution turned out to be Cui Mingji of the Lord Harmony Sect.
What needs to be explained is that regarding the attitude towards Hou Jin, although North Korea is divided into the main war faction and the peace faction.
But officials from any faction actually had no good impression of Hou Jin.
The peace faction is just more rational and knows that tough confrontation is not the opponent of Hou Jin, and it is likely to lead to the destruction of the country.
What they advocated was to adopt soft means and strategies, going back and forth between the Ming Dynasty and the Later Jin Dynasty, and trying to protect North Korea's interests as much as possible.
If North Korea completely abandoned the Ming Dynasty and surrendered to the Jin Dynasty, the officials of the peace faction were unwilling to do so.
"Now that we understand their intentions, it is best for His Highness not to summon them in person. As long as His Highness does not come forward, we will have enough room for maneuver. I will leave the rest of the response methods to you."
Even the main militant faction admired this method.
Li Jie could not meet with Hou Jin's envoys under any circumstances, otherwise, if Hou Jin's envoys made demands in person, North Korea would have no way out.
If you agree, you will lose your power and humiliate the country, and the legal system will collapse.
Failure to agree would be tantamount to becoming a mortal enemy of Hou Jin, and war would definitely follow.
The Korean monarchs and ministers discussed countermeasures, and in fear, Susa and Mafuta entered Hanyang.
"Where is the leader of North Korea? When will he summon us?"
Facing Kim Sang-heon, Sousa went straight to the point as soon as she opened her mouth.
Kim Sang-hyun forced himself to endure his anger.
"The queen has passed away. Your Highness is in grief. He is bedridden and it is inconvenient to summon the envoy. Please forgive me. But don't worry, our country has prepared a grand ceremony to bring the envoy."
Susa and Mafuta looked at each other, instinctively feeling that the North Koreans were playing tricks.
"In that case, I would also like to ask the Lord Council to come forward. We have important matters to discuss."
This time North Korea has no excuses.
"I would also like to ask the two envoys to be calm. Tomorrow evening, the Lord Councilor will personally host a banquet to entertain you two."
Jin Liu is actually in Hanyang, but it takes time to discuss countermeasures.
The Peace Party has only one idea.
That's dragging.
They used various excuses to refuse to give Houjin an accurate answer.
On the side of the main war faction, Kim Sang-heon had a sad look on his face.
"This time not only the Jurchens are here, but also the Mongols. Obviously they are determined to win. They are afraid that the weak people in the court will betray the country because of their greed for life and death."
"Cui Mingji and others are shameless people without any bones. Sir, we must find a way to keep the situation firmly in hand."
Hong Yihan didn't think the Zhuhe faction's method would be useful.
But how to deal with Hou Jin's envoys, the main war faction has no idea.
Yin Ji thought for a long time and finally came up with some ideas.
"Even if the Jurchens are overbearing, we cannot ignore the people's hearts in North Korea. If the people's hearts boil, the Jurchens will also be afraid of this power. Why don't we mobilize the people? Then North Korea will be united and united. What will there be to fear?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the main war faction's eyes lit up.
Jin Sangxian made urgent calculations and felt that this method seemed feasible.
"This matter will be handled by you. We will wait for the opportunity to start after tomorrow's banquet."
Yin Ji took the order and sent someone to recruit Jin Suhong, the Confucian leader of Sungkyunkwan, after returning.
"The Jurchens are extremely vicious and want to cut off our orthodox bloodline in Korea. Nowadays, traitors are rampant in the DPRK, and our will is weak. We still need to inform the people and protect the country. This is a big matter, do you understand?"
Jin Shouhong was originally a student of Yin Ji and understood immediately.
"We in Korea pursue the holy way and have prosperous human relations. How can we bow to the barbarians? It is our duty to protect the country and defend the way."
After returning that day, Kim Soo-hong immediately began to connect in Sungkyunkwan.
Upon learning the purpose of the Hou Jin envoy's visit, these Confucian scholars were all furious and on the verge of exploding.
On the evening of the next day, Jin Liu came forward in person and led the North Korean two squads to entertain the Hou Jin envoy.
There is no good banquet, and the situation is tense from the beginning.
"Your Excellency, here is a letter from the leader of the Eight Banners of Dajin and the forty-nine Mongolian Taiji. Please also submit it to His Royal Highness."
Looking at the letter that was delivered to me, I didn’t accept it, nor did I accept it.
While hesitating, Kim Sang-hyun hurriedly stepped forward.
"North Korea and the Kingdom of Jin are brothers. The subjects of the Kingdom of Jin sent a letter to the leader of our country, which is not in line with etiquette. We also ask the envoy not to act rashly."
"Ah...yes, yes, I wonder what important matters your country has? If you really need to exchange anger, it would be better for the leader of your country to write to you personally."
Jin Liu reacted and defeated an entire army.
Everyone understands Huang Taiji's thoughts.
But when it comes to ascending the throne and proclaiming himself emperor, how can the person involved speak in person?
That's why I was advised to talk about it further.
The leader of the Eight Banners of Hou Jin Dynasty and Taiji of Mongolia asked the King of Korea to come forward. This was nothing. But if Huang Taiji personally wrote to Li Jie about this matter, he would become a laughing stock for the ages.
How could Susa and Mafuta not know?
Seeing that the North Korean ministers did not accept the call, Susa became a little angry.
"I, the Lord of the Kingdom of Jin, have opened up frontiers and seas, conquered the world, and all the people have surrendered. Now I have a jade seal passed down to the country, which can be said to be my destiny. I hope that all the people in North Korea will work together with me to create great achievements. I don't know what?"
This removes all pretense and reveals everything.
Kim Sang-hyun immediately took action.
"There is only one sun in the sky, and there is only one father in North Korea. How could the messenger not know this gift? Where does this act lead to North Korea?"
The North Korean officials present all denounced him one after another. Everyone was furious, and it was clear that their attitude had been decided.
Susa and Mafuta's expressions suddenly changed, they were frightened, and they were a little impatient.
