"Quiet, Dutamar, shut up!"
In the midst of the noise, Ambassador Yang roared.
Seeing that it had little effect, he simply picked up the rifle and pulled the trigger.
This works.
The noisy Udihas immediately shut up and looked at him.
These guys are dissatisfied with the armistice.
After all, they are now like wild dogs that have just eaten their meat. They are in a state of frenzy. Although the casualties are actually six to seven hundred, and a chief-level general was killed in the battle, this is not a matter of living. The dead are dead.
, those who are alive are already enjoying their joy of burning, killing and looting...
But Mirror City is too small.
The total number is a few hundred households.
Although they were beaten to a pulp by them, the nearly 8,000 barbarians who were as good as orcs could only just get a taste of it.
They want more!
They want to kill more people!
They want to grab more livestock and women!
Of course, we cannot say that they are evil. In fact, the Koreans did the same to them.
According to the records of the Li Dynasty, when the Korean army raided the cave of Wu Diha's Liting, they even dug three feet into the ground. They also said that the people hid the cloth underground. They also said that Wu Diha was richer than Huli Gai and had a better house and a better family.
Everyone has wooden cabinets to store food, and there are good things in the cellar. They have been recorded so carefully. Of course, it is impossible that they did not take them with them. However, in the original history, Wu Diha, Huli Gai, and Oduoli are not only impossible.
Instead of working together, they killed each other. Facing the North Korean army, they could only be defeated individually. But now that Yang Feng has gathered them into a legion, it will be the North Koreans' turn to be unlucky.
But why stop?
What they want is to continue to move forward to bloody Jizhou and Xianxing, and even go all the way to Kaicheng!
"This is the imperial edict of Emperor Ming. Do you still want to be dogs for Ming?"
Yang Feng shouted.
He found that these people didn't mind the dogs.
In fact, they keep a large group of dogs in every household.
It can't be said that it is nourished.
After all, these dogs only eat their own food when they are young. Once they are able to hunt, they will find their own food. At most, they cannot find it. For example, in winter, they only eat their own food at that time, but they have to pull sledges for them or even kill them for meat.
Of course they eat, not only do they eat it, they even like to eat it raw.
To cure illness.
Get one and peel it raw, then put a stick on the ground and pick it up. Everyone gathers around and dances and howls like primitive people. After dancing, eat again.
The envoys of the Song Dynasty were stunned.
Their diet is actually not much different from North Korea.
"First, you must make it clear that you must obey the imperial edict of the Ming Emperor. It is an imperial edict. If you want to be an official of the Ming Dynasty, you must obey him. Therefore, if he does not let the people continue to plunder Goryeo, you must really listen to him.
, stop plundering Goryeo?"
Yang Feng said.
Yang Wen looked at him in astonishment.
Then those who knew Chinese laughed and continued to explain to their subordinates in their own words.
The latter also laughed.
exactly!
If he doesn’t allow plundering, he won’t plunder?
In the past, it was impossible to defeat Goryeo. It was not that the Goryeo people were better at fighting, but that they were scattered and unable to form a joint force. Secondly, their equipment was too poor. A tribe could only collect twenty or thirty sets of armor, which was not enough, so it was naturally impossible to fight Goryeo.
But now they have formed a group and have robbed a lot of armor, which is enough to defeat the Koreans. They just listened to the imperial edict first, but then the Ming army left and continued to rob.
"Second, I will definitely fulfill what I promised you. Now that we have a ship here, we can try to develop new markets."
Yang Feng said.
Even Yang Wen, everyone looked at him blankly.
"We can go rob the Japanese country!"
Yang Feng said with a pure face.
There was silence before him...
"Robbing Japan, rob Japan like our ancestors did!"
Mao Duo suddenly roared excitedly.
"Robbing Japan!"
…
Then there was a chaotic roar.
"Ambassador, a certain person was ordered to deliver grain to Xiguan City, and then took the ambassador back to the capital. There was no imperial order to go to the Japanese country."
Yang Wen said quickly.
"How do you return this season?"
Yang Feng said.
"Well?"
Yang Wen was speechless.
Indeed, there is no way to return this season.
The wind is from the southeast this season. Going north to Xiguan City is with a tailwind, but going back is with a headwind. Although his warship does not necessarily have to be with a tailwind. In fact, it can sail with a headwind, but it has to make a zigzag, and the speed is like a turtle crawling. It is estimated that it will take a long time to go back.
Walk for half a year.
It's actually impossible to go back like this.
Moreover, storms in the East China Sea have begun to appear frequently this season.
very dangerous.
We have to wait until the north wind starts blowing in late autumn.
"But we can go back by land. The fleet is waiting in Xiguan City."
he said.
"Brother, do you know that your emperor actually wants to attack Japan?"
"The Holy Will indeed wants to conquer the Japanese country."
"Isn't that right? You have to know the fighting power of the Japanese country before going to attack them, right? Don't you want to test their quality in advance? You have to wait here for at least a few months to wait for the north wind. In the meantime, there will be enough time."
"But His Majesty's imperial edict..."
"When you are at sea, is it normal for a warship to be blown off course by the wind?"
"That's true. The sea depends entirely on the wind, and the direction of the wind is unpredictable. Except for some routes that you are accustomed to, you know what season, what wind, and how the sea water flows, which can give you some protection. For those who have never been there, you really have to leave it to fate. What happens to the wind?
No matter how the wind blows, even those who are used to walking may encounter sudden changes in the wind direction and be blown to other places.
To put it this way, it is possible that due to the sudden change of wind direction, it was blown away to the Japanese country.
But the food must be sent first."
Yang Wen touched his chin and said.
After all, he also wanted to try the beauty of the Japanese country.
"That's right. You send the food to Xiguan City first. However, the Tumen River is shallow. After entering the river mouth and going up for thirty miles, you have to be careful. You can probably reach Xiguan City this season, but look at both sides. If it reaches the flood season
Yes, but you will definitely not be able to enter during the dry season.
Zhang Fu is still there.
Just give him the food, and he will take care of the rest."
Yang Feng said.
Yang Wen: These are sea-going ships made of thousands of materials.
In terms of displacement, it should be two to three hundred tons.
This tonnage can be stably entered, that is, Fangchuan Village. Whether you can go to Xiguan City depends on whether it is a flood season.
During the dry season, it is less than 100 tons.
And the most you can do is reach Tumen, and then you can only change to a flat-bottomed boat to go upstream. Where you can get there depends on luck, but there must be a section of the land route, and it will take two to three hundred miles, and then you can go to the Mudan River or the upper reaches of the Songhua River to start again.
Loading the ship. But as long as the rest is loaded on the ship, it will be easy. Just float all the way down the river. In short, this supply line is really more reliable than the Kaiyuan side.
It just takes effort to run it.
The population of Udiha and Huligai is not enough to maintain.
Need to immigrate.
Zhu Yuanzhang must at least transfer a real Ming army to the Xiguancheng area.
But this is a good thing for Yang Feng.
What he wanted was this route and the entrance into the Northeast.
"The ambassador has done his best for me, Daming."
Yang Wen suddenly looked at him and said with a deep smile.
"I'm actually not interested in doing my best for your Ming Dynasty. I'm just more interested in doing my best for the Han people. It's just that your Ming Dynasty happens to be a Han people's court. So as long as it is a Han people's court, as long as it can bring enough food and clothing to the people.
days, then I can do my best to help.
As for the name of the country, the emperor's surname, or even whether there is an emperor, it doesn't matter to me. I am alone. What I want is to do whatever I want.
I only do what I like to do."
Yang Feng said.
It was obvious that these smart people of the Ming Dynasty had begun to doubt his true purpose.
He was always helping without asking for anything.
But free ones are usually the most expensive ones. People who ask for nothing are the ones who make people worry, because you can’t guess what they really want.
What if his plan is great?
Regarding Yang Feng's explanation, Yang Wen just smiled slightly.
Immediately afterwards, the fleet he led continued north to Xiguancheng, while Yang Feng stayed and waited for Li Chenggui to send them gold and silver. However, the amount he wanted put a lot of pressure on Li Chenggui. There was not much gold and silver in North Korea at this time.
Although they have certain gold and silver mines, their silver smelting technology is backward. North Korea introduced Ming technology to mine silver, which was promoted by Song Yingchang, who aided the North Korea during the Wanli period. However, it is also said that North Korea has rarely mined gold and silver because it was afraid that if it was mined, what would happen to the Ming Dynasty?
The emperor wanted to test their loyalty to the Ming Dynasty.
Are you loyal?
Then give more gold and silver as tribute!
Zhu Yuanzhang and his son have been using this gold and silver tribute to consume their national power.
In short, Li Chenggui was still unhappy with Yang Feng's asking price.
So immediately after, Wudiha led by Yang Feng went south, defeated the Korean army in one fell swoop, captured Jizhou, and began to truly threaten Xianxing...
This is the place where Li Chenggui and Longxing flourished.
"He doesn't want his hometown to be massacred, right?"
Yang Feng looked at the North Korean official lying at his feet.
This guy is much more sensible. His kneeling posture in front of this guy who is said to be the Demon King is comparable to the retarded goddess in front of General Winter.
"Ambassador, our country is a small country and its people are poor. Over the years, we have been sincere and dedicated, and have made constant contributions. We have dedicated gold and silver to His Majesty the Ming Emperor. We are not afraid of the ambassador's jokes. The ceremonial guards used by the new king on his enthronement cannot be made of gold. They can only be used in the ceremony.
The outside is painted with gold paint, and there is really no way to get a hundred kilograms of gold. I can barely get enough silver, but there are only sixteen kilograms of gold."
said the latter.
“This is too little.
But this is not what I want. This is for those Wu Diha. If you don’t give enough, they will definitely not give up. They really like to massacre cities.
How about this!
I'll cover the remaining eighty-four pounds for you."
Yang Feng said.
"Well?"
The official looked up at him in shock.
"But you have to send me 840 young women according to the standard of ten young women per pound of gold.
Be nice.
I have an interview."
Yang Feng said with a smile.
Next, it’s time to go back to the south to recruit workers.
How can we coax those Han people who live a comfortable life in the land of plenty to go to the bitter cold land to open up wasteland?
One person can have one wife and one concubine first.
What's wrong with Korean women? Korean women can pay tribute to the Ming Emperor and give you the same treatment as the Ming Emperor. So why don't you come here quickly? What's wrong with the bitter cold land? You still care about minus thirty degrees with a woman hugging you?
The beautiful life of one wife and one concubine beckons!
