Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 165 The Temptation of the Citizens of the Ming Dynasty

North Korea was a vassal state of China in many dynasties.

Especially during the Ming Dynasty, they had a stronger sense of identity with Ming Dynasty.

The status of Ming people in North Korea is also very high. They can meet officials without kneeling in North Korea, and they don't have to pay taxes.

If they break the law in North Korea, North Korea is not qualified to punish them, and they can only be sent back to Daming for processing.

Becoming a citizen of Ming Dynasty is the dream of almost every Korean.

I heard that as long as you can behead the heads of eight captive Tartars, you can become a citizen of Ming Dynasty.

This reward completely stimulated the North Korean rebels, and they desperately started to climb the ladder.

Abatai, king of Doro Raoyu County, guarding Seoul, was furious when he saw it:
"These untouchables are dying. Quick, shoot these damn North Koreans."

In an instant, arrows flew like rain from the top of the city, and the cannons in red began to bombard them.

The Korean insurgents who attacked the city were shot down on the ladder one after another, causing heavy casualties for a while.

But I thought that if I could become a citizen of Ming Dynasty, even if I died in battle, at least my family would be able to be superior to others in North Korea.

So they didn't care about their own life and death, and desperately climbed to the top of the city.

Li Dingguo and Sun Chuanting, who were standing in the rear commanding, were both shocked by the expressions of the North Korean soldiers.

"Marshal, you see these people are really brave, but the casualties are too high, do you want to send our people there?"

Sun Chuanting looked at Li Dingguo with a smile, feeling that he was still too young, so he reached out and patted him on the shoulder:

"General Li, don't worry. They are desperate because our rewards are very attractive. After all, they are foreigners. If the enemy gives them the same conditions, they are likely to turn around and attack us."

"Oh, the general understands the meaning of the commander-in-chief, and fires the cannon to open the city gate and let them grab the head!"

Li Dingguo instantly understood what Sun Chuanting meant, and the commander-in-chief was using these people as cannon fodder.

"Come here, order the artillery to bombard the gate of Seoul."

"Yes"

The artillery commander agreed, and immediately ordered the red cannons to cover the attack of the North Korean rebel army.

The muzzles of the fifty red cannons were aimed at the gate of Seoul.

The artillery leader waved his flag, and fifty red cannons fired in unison.

"Rumble..."

At that time, the cannons were not as accurate as they are now, and there were also red cannons attacking from the top of the city.

A large part of the shells hit the city wall, and only a small number of shells hit the city gate.

The city gate just shook, and did not suffer much.

"Come again, fire"

"Rumble..."

"Rumble..."

The shells blasted towards the city gate like a torrential rain, although most of the shells missed the target.

But there are always some shells that bombard the city gate with precision.

Soon the city gate began to crack, and the soldiers guarding the city gate were shocked and fled.

"There is something wrong with the prince. Ming Gou bombarded the city gate with red cannons, and the city gate will be blasted open soon."

Suddenly, a Tartar army came to report that the city gate was about to fall.

Abatai, who stood at the head of the city and commanded the battle, was taken aback.

Hastily ordered the muzzle to aim at the red cannons outside the city to bombard.

"Hurry up, aim the muzzle at Minggou's artillery positions outside the city and bombard them, knocking out their artillery."

The Artillery of the Tartars who were captive in the East immediately took a visual look at the distance of the artillery positions of the Ming Army, and immediately showed embarrassment on their faces:
"My lord, Minggou's artillery positions are not within the range of our red cannons, so we can't hit them at all."

Abatai glared, and stretched out his hand to give the artillery tartar a mouthful.

"It's nonsense, they are also cannons in red clothes, why they can hit the city gate, but you can't hit them, hit me, or die!"

"twitter"

The Tartar artillery was really helpless. He didn't know why the Ming army's cannon could hit the city gate, so he could only try and talk first.

Don't think that the red cannons of the Ming army can attack the city gate, but Abatai's red cannons really can't hit Sun Chuanting and the others.

The red-clothed cannons of the Ming army are all system-improved versions, and their range is not comparable to that of Dongyao cannons.

"fire……"

"Rumble..."

The shells from the red cannon on the top of the city escaped, but they all landed three hundred steps in front of the Ming army's formation.

Li Dingguo and Sun Chuanting laughed out loud when they saw this, but Abatai's face was ashen, and he was so angry that he only cursed his mother.

"Rumble..."

The artillery shells of the Ming army bombarded the city gate again, and some fish that slipped through the net finally attacked the city gate into countless pieces.

"The city gate was blasted open by cannons, hurry up."

Seeing that the city gate was broken, the North Korean soldiers who were desperately attacking the city rushed to the city gate frantically.

Soon they fought hand-to-hand with the Dongyao people. There were only more than 3000 Dongyao cavalry, plus the loyalists of the Li Dynasty, a total of about 2.

But outside the city, the Korean uprising army has gathered more and more, and now there are almost 5 people.

They rushed into Seoul desperately for the sake of their ID cards and to get gold and silver to support their families, and the people in the city couldn't resist them at all.

The soldiers of the Li Dynasty had no combat effectiveness, and they began to panic as soon as they were rushed by the rebels. .

In the end, there were only a few thousand captive soldiers still desperately resisting.

I have to admit that the combat effectiveness of Dongyao cavalry is really strong, whether it is on horseback or on foot.

But the opponent not only has the superior number, but also is not afraid of death, this is something they did not expect.

As long as the Eastern captives are almost entangled by North Korea's three or five, it is almost difficult for them to escape.

"Rush and kill"

"As long as you can cut off the heads of five Tartars, not only will you have gold and silver, but you can also go to Daming."

They shouted loudly and raised their weapons to fight the Tartars.

As soon as Dongyao Tartar stabbed the scimitar into the opponent's body, several knives pierced his back at the same time.

Even if many North Korean rebels were hacked a few times, as long as they were still alive, they would desperately cling to the thighs of the Eastern captives and not let go.

A few of them not only have good military strength, but also often command other North Korean rebels to besiege the Tartars.

Abatai was furious. These little sheep, who usually seemed docile, seemed to be cheating today, causing a lot of casualties to the captives.

Abatai watched helplessly that the cavalrymen under his command fell down one by one, and he began to panic.

Li Dingguo couldn't help but frown when he saw the powerful combat power of the North Korean rebel army:
"Marshal, how can the combat effectiveness of these North Korean rebels be so strong, it seems a bit pervasive."

Sun Chuanting was also secretly surprised, he nodded and said:

"Yes, not only are they not afraid of death, but they are also relatively united. Unfortunately, after this battle, most of them must be casualties."

Li Dingguo had a whim, and said:
"Marshal, we can set up a team composed entirely of North Korean soldiers, teach them more, and in the future we can defend North Korea for my Ming Dynasty."

Under Li Dingguo's reminder, Sun Chuanting's eyes lit up, and he nodded in agreement with his suggestion.

"You have a good idea. Let's observe carefully and choose a brave leader from among them."

After the two agreed, they quickly picked up the binoculars and looked at the battlefield.
