Chapter 929 Academic Exchange
No North Korean wants to be taken into slavery.

So the rumors spread by the Ministry of Intelligence had a huge impact.

In addition, there were indeed many Korean people who saw with their own eyes that the Manchu Qing captured many prisoners, which made them believe in the rumors even more.

As a result, many North Koreans chose to flee.

In their simple thinking, the Manchus came from the north.And if you want to avoid the fate of being captured, you can only run south.

Coupled with the intentional or unintentional guidance of the Ministry of Intelligence, many North Koreans have come to Busan.

According to rough statistics, this number is as high as [-] to [-].

Busan in this era does not have the scale of later generations.So many people rushed in at once, which caused great pressure on the local area.

Coupled with the fact that Busan has a lot of land and less land, and its output is limited, it is a difficult test just to meet the food problems of these people.

When Zuo Menggeng was in Busan, Wang Yun, Jin Shangxian and others had already reported to him.

One of the ways he could think of at that time was to transport food from the outside, and the other was to wait until the threat from Japan was lifted, and then open the North Korean people to go fishing in the sea.

But these North Koreans are so poor and penniless that they can't afford to build a boat at all.

Even though Xia Jun needs a lot of labor, there is no way for so many people to fully digest it.

When he heard that the agriculture on Jeju Island had a great future and needed a lot of labor, Zuo Menggeng immediately made arrangements to disperse the crowded population in Busan.

Jeju Island is so big, there is absolutely no big problem in arranging [-] to [-] people to live there.

In addition, winter is coming to an end, Jeju Island is starting to warm up, and the difficulty of diverting the population is greatly reduced.

Shen Daoxun and Li Chong were originally dispatched here by the Joseon Dynasty.

This kind of desolate place made the two of them depressed and extremely depressed.

When Jin Shangxian, Shen Qiyuan and others raised the flag of rebellion, the two still thought that they could be reused and return to the country to have a good time.

But I didn't expect that Jeju Island would suddenly become prosperous because of the construction of the Xia Army, and it was far better than all places in North Korea.

Seeing this, the two of them gave up their thoughts of going back, and started working here with all their hearts.

Because they are the administrative directors of Jeju Island, they have reaped many benefits during the construction process and made a lot of money.

This made the two of them change quickly, began to taste the sweetness of making money, and no longer looked down on the poor output of the land.

In the agricultural reclamation group in Jeju Island, the two own a lot of shares, so they are [-] in favor of recruiting people to come and cultivate them.

Zuo Menggeng stayed in Jeju Island for three days to solve some complicated problems, and the Linqing set sail again for Busan.

When he came back, military and political officials from all walks of life in Busan rushed to the port to greet him.

Everyone was amazed when they saw the magnificent scale of the Linqing.

"There is such a big ship in the world! Who can resist it across the sea?"

During the Imjin Japanese Invasion, the Turtle Ships of North Korea played a good role in combat, which made the North Koreans very proud.

But now that they saw the Linqing, they realized that they were completely helpless.

Looking at the rows of black muzzles on both sides of the ship, everyone can imagine how terrifying the ship's combat power must be.

All the naval soldiers resting in the port had red eyes, envious of the comrades above.

If you can serve on such a ship, you can wake up from your dreams.

Zuo Menggeng came ashore and noticed that there were a few more strangers in the welcoming team.

Wang Yun's eyes were quick, and he immediately introduced him.

"Your Highness, this is Lord Hong Yihan Hong."

Zuo Menggeng looked at him carefully, Hong Yihan was in his early fifties, handsome and elegant, full of books.His eyes are clear, which shows his firm will.

In the original history, he was sent to the hands of the late Qing Dynasty and was eventually executed, so he was called the Three Scholars together with Yin Ji and Wu Daji by the Koreans.

Now because of Xia Jun's interference, he survived, so he respects Zuo Menggeng very much.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your generous rescue, your kindness and virtue, and I will remember it in my heart."

Zuo Menggeng likes to comfort him.

"Hong Daren's Gancheng is unparalleled in talent. From now on, let's work together to expel the Tartars and restore North Korea's orthodoxy."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in North Korea was excited.

The other extra stranger was naturally Lin Qingye, the governor of Yizhou.

"At present, Jeju Island is being vigorously developed, which requires a lot of labor. I plan to move the people from Busan to the past. The affairs along the way are complicated and arduous. I just need a capable person to preside over this matter. I don't know if Mr. Lin can take on the big responsibility. ?”

Although they met for the first time, Zuo Menggeng directly arranged an errand for Lin Qingye.

It's just because he knows that this person is a loyal person, and he is always loyal to China.

Lin Qingye followed Hong Yihan down from Xingnan to Busan by boat. Seeing the prosperity here, he was very excited and eager to do things.

He was very happy to be assigned a task at this time, and immediately agreed.

Zuo Menggeng named another person from among the admirals.

"Huang Fei, you and Lord Lin will complete the task of transporting the people. You are the most aware of how difficult the sea is. You must take good care of the people and don't hurt them."

Huang Fei's body was wrapped in many bandages, and it was obvious that his injuries hadn't healed yet.But the spirits are high and the morale is high.

"The last general is in command, and there will never be any mistakes."

Like Shang Kexi, as one of the top heroes in the Tsushima Sea War, Huang Fei was also promoted from a major to a lieutenant colonel, able to independently lead a maritime detachment.

Unexpectedly, the first task accepted was not to fight wars, but to transport manpower.

He looked at Lin Qingye, not knowing why, but feeling very kind.

"Master Lin, from now on we will eat in the same pot. If there are any deficiencies, please bear with us."

Coincidentally, Lin Qingye also felt very close to Huang Fei.

"I have heard that General Huang is the son of the general family. His family has a long history. I have heard of it a lot in Yizhou. Please give me more advice in the future."

Neither of them knew that if history hadn't changed, Lin Qingye would have been wanted for anti-Qing in a few years, and fled to Daming, where he worked under Huang Fei's command.

Lin Qingye's wife, Li Shi, was arrested in Shengjing, and she was equally fearless.In order not to coerce her husband, she brazenly chose to commit suicide.

After the fall of the Nanming regime, Lin Qingye fell into the hands of Man Qing, and was eventually killed in prison.

It is rumored that Jin Zidian conspired.

Two close comrades-in-arms, having escaped the tide of history, unexpectedly worked together again.

As for Cui Xiaoyi who came with Lin Qingye, Zuo Menggeng paid special attention to him.

"General Cui, your strategy is extraordinary, and you are even more tenacious. I plan to arrange for you to study in the military academy. After you come out, you will have another important task. Is it possible?"
