Chapter 57 The Lord of Korea I

Yunzheng, who captured Kyungseong, did not immediately send troops to continue westward or southward. Instead, he chose to send a guard north to capture Musan, and opened up the roads between Chongjin, Musan, and Kyungseong, and completely occupied the northern part of North Hamgyong Province.

Then Yunzheng made a bold move and divided his troops into two groups, each with two guards. One group was led by Yun Yi and passed through Baiyan and Putian to capture Huishan. The other group was led by himself and headed southwest to Jince.

The biggest problem with this strategy is not whether it can be defeated by dividing the troops. Facts have proved that although the Goryeo soldiers also have elite troops, even those elite troops were built by Yunzheng with new thinking, new equipment, new training, and new tactics.

In front of Xinying Yangwei, he could almost be called vulnerable. He had often thought these days, if the comprehensive test of muskets was successful, how invincible would the Yun family's army equipped with muskets be in the future?

Yun Zheng's real trouble in dividing his troops now is that he personally led the troops to Kim Chaek City. Kim Chaek is one of the two big cities in North Hamgyong Province, and it is also the only remaining stronghold of the Goryeo Dynasty in North Hamgyong Province. Yun Zheng cannot predict this trip now.

How did the guards of the Goryeo court treat him during the time of Jin Ce? Although Yun Zheng is not afraid of war, he has no intention of directly annexing Goryeo with the Yun family. He still hopes to deal with Goryeo first by using the same method as Japan.

Bring the court under his control, and then control Goryeo as the ruler behind the scenes, so that he will not spread too many troops in Goryeo

The result of dispatching troops was indeed not what Yunzheng had expected. All he faced along the way were some remnants of Park Yongxun's army, and the fight was very easy. Not to mention the two guards led by Yun Yi, which numbered less than 12,000 people.

, he even managed to defeat Park Yong-hun's remaining main force along the way. After successfully dispersing the 30,000 remnant troops that Park Yong-hun had brought out from Kyungseong, Park Yong-hun hurriedly gathered an army of 110,000 from all over North Hamgyong Province, claiming to be 200,000 and Yun Yi's main force.

decisive battle

Yun Yi set up a circular defensive formation, and then he didn't use any clever tricks. It was an outer circle of halberds, and three rows of crossbows in the inner circle fired continuously. After consuming more than 10,000 troops of Park Yongxun and almost all of his morale, he suddenly changed his formation, and a

The arrow formation infantry assault defeated the seemingly astonishing 100,000-strong army and collapsed instantly. The entire battle lasted only four hours, but it resulted in the direct death of 20,000 Korean soldiers under Park Yong-hun, and six

Ten thousand people were injured, and in the end, 40,000 to 50,000 surrendered. As for the remaining wounded soldiers... Yun Yi had no intention or ability to save them, so he had to let them fend for themselves.

Yun Yi first confiscated the weapons of these remnant soldiers and asked them to be responsible for cleaning up the battlefield - that is, responsible for cleaning the battlefield and picking up the crossbow arrows shot by Ying Yangwei. These crossbow arrows are well made and will not break after being shot once.

It has been used many times, so after the war, it will be recycled as long as conditions permit. The weapons manufacturing of the Yun family has not yet fully started. There is a lot of ordnance materials. What can be saved must be saved, otherwise it may lead to a shortage of materials.

Yun Yi did not completely agree with the statement that "war is fought by logistics" mentioned by the young marshal once, but he also agreed that logistics support was extremely important - especially since he found that since Ying Yangwei fully accepted the training of the marshal, he adopted

After acquiring new equipment and new tactics, it seems that the demand for logistics is really getting bigger and bigger. Now we are fighting in Goryeo. Don’t look at the fact that there is no shortage of supplies for successive battles. That’s because the fighting intensity is not high. After all, the Goryeo soldiers are very powerful.

Limited, Ying Yangwei has time to clean the battlefield after each battle, and recover most of the crossbow arrows for reuse. What if we encounter a strong army in the future, the fighting intensity becomes more intense, and we have no time to clean the battlefield? By then, we will lose the company.

If you fire a crossbow, your combat power will be greatly reduced.

Only then did Yun Yi have to admire his young marshal's foresight. He thought about the bicycle that the young marshal invented. Although it looked weird, in terms of transportation capacity and speed, it was really better than using a cart or a horse-drawn carriage.

The bike is much more powerful, and the Marshal once said that this bike is intended for ordinary soldiers. Then not only will the logistics department be able to use such a thing to dispatch ordnance and food supplies, but the soldiers will also be able to use this bike to travel and carry goods.

Using this thing to travel will not only increase the marching speed, but more importantly, the original marching can only carry sixty or seventy kilograms of stuff, but after using the bicycle, it can carry at least about one hundred and twenty kilograms of supplies, which is almost the same as before.

People who don’t understand war may not be able to imagine how big the difference is. But people who really understand soldiers know that an extra pound of food for each soldier is sometimes the key to the victory or defeat of the war, and five extra pounds of food is sometimes the key to the victory or defeat of the war.

Sixty pounds, is there any need to say that?

Why, this is about the rations of the frontier armies - especially the ration systems of the two northern frontier armies: the Yun Family Army and the Zhou Family Army. Although the Yun Family Army is the strongest army in the world, its ration system is because Yunfeng is from Shaanxi.

So it is run in the Shaanxi way. It is the same as the current Zhou Jiajun. The Shaanxi way can be traced back to the Qin Dynasty at least.

People in Qin used flour ground from wheat, barley, and rye to make cakes and eat a kind of cake called "die noodle cake", which is a cake made from unfermented dough directly cooked in a pot. This kind of cake is eaten

If you have an upset stomach, you have to order some vegetables or cooked meat. The most commonly eaten bread is called "sourdough pancake", which is a pancake made from fermented dough.

It is the main dry food for the Qin army

To make sourdough bread, when the flour is mixed with water, a "leave starter" (i.e., baking powder) is added, which can form a dough that will generally not go bad for several months. Moreover, after mixing the dough, a small piece of dough can be left.

Hidden, this small dough will become the "leave starter" next time) and then let the dough ferment naturally at room temperature of about 25 degrees; in summer, it is natural fermentation, in winter, it needs to be fermented near the stove, and the temperature should be about 25 degrees.

can ferment

After kneading the dough, just put it in the pot and fry it directly. It will be cooked in a while. People in Qin called this kind of dough "Guokui", which roughly means the hat of the pot because the pot is actually an iron plate.

As long as there is a fire underneath, the pancake will be cooked and the pancake will not bloat. The digestion will be normal. Pure wheat is the most delicious, but grains made with grains will have a less "pot-like" taste.

The diameter is as big as the mouth of a small bowl, and the thickness is about one centimeter; the largest diameter is 80 centimeters, and the thickness is about 10 centimeters. Today, there are Guokui cakes sold everywhere in Guanzhong, Shaanxi.

Another kind of dry food is "moon", which is what people usually call "steamed buns"; it is steamed with fermented dough. Of course, when there is no war, officers and soldiers mainly eat noodles. Shaanxi people have made more than a dozen kinds of noodles.

The noodles are said to be more delicious than those made by people from other provinces. Yunzheng just heard that he had never been to Shaanxi before crossing over, and he has no chance now, so he really doesn’t know.

After the dough cake is made, it can last for ten and a half months without mold or deterioration. It is easy to carry and can be eaten at any time. The shelf life of "moon" is slightly shorter, usually less than ten days because of "guokui"

It is baked and has less water content. "Mountain" is steamed and has high water content.

Qin soldiers marched with these two kinds of dry food on their backs. Once the war started, they would use this as food during long marches. When eating, they only needed to drink some water. They could start eating at any time and stop at any time.

In a battlefield camp, you can go without cooking for a few days and just eat dry food. If there is a break during the war, it is also easy to replenish dry food. A soldier can make the dry food he needs for half a month in half a day without fear.

Everyone’s dry food is mixed up because everyone’s dry food is the same

Some people may not understand that this kind of dry food can fill the stomachs of the officers and soldiers of the Qin army and withstand long-term marches; because Yunzheng was a southerner before crossing over, and for southerners, if it is rice, it can last for a long time.

After having enough food but no food, Yunzheng asked himself that it would not be easy to hold on for half a month. He could only find reasons for himself: Maybe southerners are used to eating delicately and are not as good as northerners in terms of "stamina".

Another advantage of this kind of dry food is that you don’t have to cook or raise a fire in the camp for several days, so camping is not cumbersome, but the army still maintains a high degree of combat effectiveness, because the nutrition in the bread is sufficient; when the officer gives the order,

All officers and soldiers can assemble immediately and eat while walking. For the Qin army's long-distance raids, raids and long-term lurking, this kind of dry food is most suitable.

It’s strange. People in Shaanxi rarely ate vegetables in the past. They only had “Guokui” and “Mo” every day. Later, chili peppers were introduced to Shaanxi, so chili became the best dish to accompany “Guokui” and “Mo”.

"Chili pepper" is a dish that people in Shaanxi will cook, and it is also an indispensable daily dish for authentic Shaanxi families. To this day, it is common for Shaanxi people to eat dry pancakes. Of course, compared to the dishes of the Qin Dynasty,

A little more meat

The original dry food of the Yun family army was similar to that of the Qin army. However, after Yun Zheng took charge of Yingyangwei, the soldiers of Yingyangwei were blessed because they also had an extra dry food for logistics, which was moose cakes. This era was not as good as later generations.

, there are many moose, they are not protected animals, and they are easier to hunt, so their meat often becomes the meal of Yingyang Guard soldiers. In addition, Yunzheng usually provides pork when he is not fighting, and many rewards are also rewards.

Pork In fact, people at this time did not like to eat pork very much. Usually, beef and sheep were the main meats. However, Yunzheng knew that raising pigs was the easiest way to eat meat, so he always advocated raising pigs. Eating pork was just meat.

It is relatively difficult to preserve cakes, so they are less used as dry food.

Since dry food is dry biscuits and steamed buns, it is obvious that its effect on filling the stomach is very good. Even if the soldiers' appetite increases during the war, eating three or four taels of dry biscuits in one meal is enough for a day.

One kilogram is almost the same, so there are dozens of kilograms more... It is conceivable that if you can't bring all the dry food, you will definitely be able to carry more ordnance, and the impact on combat effectiveness will be obvious.

Yun Yi believes that when the "bicycle" invented by the young marshal is equipped on a large scale with the Yun family army, the combat effectiveness of the Yun family army will definitely be further improved. Thinking of this, Yun Yi can't help but feel extremely proud, proud that he is from the Yun family, and proud that he has

Such a young commander who knows almost everything

In this march, Yun Yi was under greater pressure than Yun Zheng, because after the complete defeat of Park Yongxun, there were more rebels in Liangjiang Road, but fortunately, they were also more chaotic. They had not yet formed a unified command, and they almost all fought independently.

Almost every county has a rebel army, with numbers ranging from 10,000 to 50,000. A rebel army of this size is not enough to pose any threat to Yun Yi. Therefore, despite continuous fighting, Yun Yi still only took half a month to defeat Hui.

Under the mountain city

The rebels in Huishan have heard the news that the Ying Yangwei of the Northern Frontier Army of the Wei Dynasty is coming to Korea. Although they don't know what it means that the Northern Frontier Army suddenly comes to Korea, they are coming, and they will have to resist when they come.

After they learned about the performance of the Northern Xinjiang Army, the leader of the Hyesan Rebel Army, Jin Mingze, was frightened. He knew the strength of Park Yongxun. This General Park was the leader of a rebel army that appeared after the Goryeo Revolution, with an army of 250,000.

, Kim Myung Chae's army once had a battle with General Park's army. Kim Myung Chae had a slight advantage in military strength but was ultimately defeated. Therefore, he always believed that Park Yongxun's army was relatively more effective. But this General Park, he was defeated with ten

An army of 20,000 people defended the fortified city, but the 20,000 eagle guards fell into the city in one day. Later, the remaining 200,000 soldiers were gathered (allegedly), and the entire army was defeated by 10,000 eagle guards.

In the Wei Dynasty, the eagles and guards were raised, they were truly heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals!

Facing Yun Yi, who looked like he was about to attack the city as soon as he arrived at the city gate, Jin Mingze became timid and frightened. With only 40,000 troops left, he wisely and obediently chose to surrender the city.

When Yun Yi saw Jin Mingze's envoy, he was surprised for a while. Surrender? It seemed that it was the first time these two words appeared in his dictionary. However, he was a veteran soldier after all, so he immediately expressed his acceptance of Jin Mingze's offer.

Surrendered, and stated that he would temporarily appoint Jin Mingze as the governor of Huishan County, and would recommend that Marshal Yun agree to this appointment. Of course, the military power must be handed over. There was no discussion on this point. If he did not agree, it would be up to his subordinates to decide.

good

Jin Mingze was extremely helpless and did not dare to fight with Yun Yi, so he had to open the city gate and kneel down to welcome Yun Yi into the city. Yun Yi then temporarily appointed Jin Mingze as the governor of Huishan County in front of the two armies, and announced that Jin Mingze would be the governor of Huishan County.

The Koryo troops under his command were taken back under his command, and they would decide whether to stay or leave these people after consulting with Marshal Yun.

---------------------------------------------Well, it seems that I have to work overtime at night to make up for it.

Indebted, I have to maintain the 150,000-word update volume in January. During this period, there were heavy rains and strong winds in Changsha, and it was surprisingly hot... For example, today, I even got prickly heat, but the weather forecast also informed that tomorrow

It continues to rain heavily... This weather is so abnormal? Could it be that a monster from the chaotic world has been born? Uh...
