Ming Zhengzhi, I am Zheng Kezang

503. Fighting North Korea Again

"Didn't you just recruit 6000 rogues for your country? Why, now you're going to recruit another [-] people?" Etsuchu Doi stared at Dai Shuyong in amazement. They are all brought out in the past, but three thousand plus six thousand is nearly ten thousand. This cannot but make the shogunate worry about Huaxia's fundamental intentions. "This amount is too large. I'm afraid the shogunate is unlikely to agree."

"This envoy also knows," Dai Tongjian looked at the other party with a half-smile, and the excitement of recruiting Langshi before made him full of confidence in recruiting another 6000 people. "However, the recruitment of Japanese was agreed in the peace treaty between the two countries. I just asked the shogunate to help me with this. If the shogunate wanted to shirk it, I would have made it possible for this side to handle it on its own."

These words made Etsuchu Doi's face uncertain, so he argued with reason: "Lord Dai, the peace treaty stipulates that Chinese merchants can hire Japanese to enter and leave Japan, but it doesn't say that Japanese should fight for China. "

"Out of Japan, how can the shogunate manage so much?" Dai Shuyong asked back. "Besides, we gave a reasonable reward, right? Five hundred shi is not a small amount in Japan. If they don't want to fight with their lives, how can they be given to them so lightly." Smile lightly. "Don't worry, I will not let these rogues come to do things that are harmful to the shogunate." Dai Shuyong explained. "North Korea's recent wars have become more frequent, and we have to plan ahead."

"Will these rogues be used in North Korea?" Doi narrowed his eyes and thought for a while. "Forget it, I will speak to the shogunate again to help Lord Dai complete the task of recruiting, but I have a condition." Dojing looked directly into Dai Tongjian's eyes. "Since these rogues have left Japan, I hope they will not come back."

Dai Shuyong laughed loudly: "This matter is easy to handle, but in addition to the six thousand, I'm afraid we will have to recruit some more at that time."

Doi responded with a sneer: "I'm afraid that too many rogues will affect the foundation of the shogunate in recent years. The general has rarely changed the vassal state. If your court can help the shogunate solve this hidden worry, I think the shogunate will earnestly implement the various treaties. of."

Doi's words have made it very clear that Huaxia can use Japan's manpower, and the shogunate can also obtain the necessary funds to maintain financial integrity through reforms. This is a win-win situation. And the warriors under his command who threatened the existence of the shogunate.

"It's so good, the two countries can get what they need." How could Dai Tongjian object? "Then it's a deal"

"You guys, it's really funny to say it." Standing in a newly leveled camp in Ji County, a military officer of the Xia Army who was descended from He was barking at the hundreds of ragged Japanese rogues in front of him. "Warriors and rogues are a group of ordinary people who don't know how to fight. You lost such a big advantage in the Edo battle. I am ashamed for you. You have tarnished the honorary title of warriors." There is some commotion in the team, the military officer continued. "What? Don't be convinced, it's right not to be convinced, it means that you still have a sense of shame as a warrior"

"Mr. Jingshan, I can't help it, I'm going to kill that guy." In the team, there were two rogues standing very close to each other, whispering. "These Jili Zhidan, this group of homeless vicious dogs, they look like dogs now, and it makes people angry when they look at them."

"Okay, Xiao Wulang, they are no longer homeless vicious dogs, they have Xia people's Gu Fu, no, they have already naturalized as Xia people, but we, we are now homeless Rogue." The middle-aged Rogue known as Jing Shan pointed to the outside of the camp secretly. "Did you pay attention, there are hundreds of Xia forces standing guard outside the camp. If you and I are impulsive, they will immediately rush in to suppress them, so please be patient."

"Patience, I've been enduring since the master's house was changed." Before Kogoro finished speaking, there was a commotion on the side: "What's going on? Why are everyone pushing forward?"

"You idiot, why don't you listen to it." Someone on the side responded. "My lord let us go up and get the things."

A thing, yes, not a thing.Under the threat of Xia Jun's spear stabbing, these rogues who were not yet extremely stupid quickly learned how to line up, and then took the things issued to them from Xia Jun one by one.

These items include two spring and summer military uniforms that are small in size according to Xia Jun's figure, a thin cotton quilt, a bamboo canteen, a coir raincoat lined with tarpaulin, two pairs of straw sandals for training, and two pairs of ordinary clothes. Although there are not many varieties of saponins, a pair of chopsticks, two wooden bowls, and a handful of saponins, Langshi's hands are full.

"The Xia people are so rich? The previous family has never sent us so many things."

The rogues sighed softly, which attracted more echoes from the side: "That's right, that's right, these things cost three or four pennies at least, and they are distributed to hundreds of people at once, even Kaga million stones I'm afraid I don't have that much money."

Some people may still think that these things are not very expensive, but when Xia Jun opened lunch next time, all the rogues were amazed: "It's white rice. When Uchida's family was the head of the family, they couldn't eat white rice every day. Xia Jun An ordinary ashigaru in the army can eat so well, no wonder the shogunate will lose."

"Eat, just eat, you will have the strength to train when you are full." Huotoujun yelled in a language that the Japanese did not understand. "Don't worry, you can fill it up after eating, well, this is pickled whale broth, be careful not to burn it"

The voracious rogues didn't care about what the other party was talking about. They lowered their heads and started chewing one by one. With the help of the delicious pickled whale broth, the king with the best appetite had only a piece of pickled vegetables to eat. He stuffed seven bowls of white rice abruptly, which made the firemen dumbfounded.

"Hey, these little Japanese can eat a lot, but I heard that they can't fight very much. Don't be a foodie who can eat but can't do it. It might be a big loss for the imperial court to recruit these people to fight."

"Are you full?" The military officer from Heyi, who had been talking nonsense before, reappeared. "It's good if you're full, come and bring the dog out, what are you doing, if you are not afraid of being bitten by the dog, then just stay here and let the dog go!" Looking at the rogue who was forced to run around by the vicious dog Ladies and gentlemen, the military officer bared his teeth coldly. "I don't even know how to run, I've got everything lined up, otherwise the dogs will bite me"

Huaxia is still recruiting and training the so-called Shence Army. On the Korean battlefield, the Qing and North Korea continued to confront each other in Ruixing, Huangzhou, Suian and other places after the Battle of Kaifeng, although they were all about 3000 people. However, the South Korean army has lost more than it won, and has gradually accumulated nearly [-] casualties, and more importantly, tangible material losses and intangible morale damage. Under such circumstances, the pro-Xia faction in South Korea has begun to exert its strength .

"I don't know why my lords are willing to put the allies of Shangguo on the point of watching the battle, but now it seems that without the participation of Xia Jun, the soldiers and horses of this dynasty are definitely not the opponents of Jianlu." With a tacit understanding, Quan Zuoguang, the former North Korean commercial envoy to China, is now Cao Zhenglang, an official of the fifth rank. Although his status is not high, his position is very important, so he can accuse those who are much higher than him at the court meeting without any burden. Judgments and discussions. "Is it possible that you want to wait until all the soldiers and horses in North Korea are gone before inviting Xia Jun to join the battle?"

Although Quan Zuoguang's tone was a bit aggressive, his words were very reasonable. If the South Korean army was wiped out, the court king Li Yu would have to pull down and ask his son-in-law to come out. I am afraid that Huaxia will be even more deeply Therefore, from this perspective, it is better to invite Xia Jun to fight early than to invite Xia Jun to fight later.

Now that they have figured it out, several North Korean ministers didn't care about twitching, and immediately proposed to Cui Yingzhi, who has the real power in the court: "Master Cui, without further delay, immediately make an appointment with the messenger of China, Mr. Cai, and ask him The military's participation in the war."

Li Daochang, who is also a member of Quan Zuoguang's anti-Cui small group, reminded: "At the same time, people should be sent to Ningbo to make a request to the Chinese court through the channel of Jin Dong Bin Jin, so that it is in line. If there is a missing link in the relevant system of the Huaxia Dynasty regarding the submission of letters to the court by foreign vassals, the matter may be shelved indefinitely."

Of course, it is impossible for Huaxia to put North Korea's request for help indefinitely, but it is entirely possible for Huaxia to delay the matter to the most favorable moment for it. This is definitely not in the interests of South Korea. Yingzhi nodded and said: "It's not too late, let's do it separately."

At this time, Li Daochang said superfluously: "The lower official is willing to go to Ningbo to inform Mr. Jin himself."

Since Cui Yingzhi is known as a minister of power, he is naturally extremely intelligent. Li Daochang was so eager, he immediately put a question mark in his heart, but at this time, it is considered to be a national crisis, and it is not suitable to clean it up immediately, so he said smoothly: "This is also the case. Alright, let Master Li do the hard work."

At the end of the court meeting, Cui Yingzhi reported the results of today's discussion to the court king Li Yu. Li Hao had no other opinions. In his opinion, as long as he can keep his own glory and wealth, even if North Korea falls into the hands of China in the future, it will be with him. It doesn't matter.

On the contrary, Cui Yingzhi returned to the mansion, and immediately called his nephew Cui Shida, who is the general of the robbery hall: "Li Daochang's jumping up and down is a bit suspicious, you should send someone to watch and see who is conspiring with him. Let me know quickly."

"Uncle, my nephew has also heard about the court affairs." Cui Shida's eyes sparkled. "My nephew thinks that the pilgrimage to China might be a bit unsafe for the Jin Dongbin. This position is extremely important, so it's better to send our own people."

"What you said makes sense." Cui Yingzhi immediately remembered how he got started, so he decided. "When Jianlu is expelled this time, Jin Dongbin will be replaced immediately. The same is true for Li Daochang. When he returns from Huaxia, he will rush to Shangqingdao."
