Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 1117
Hearing the shopkeeper's report, Wang Tong was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said that he wanted to meet the top Jurchens who came over.

The army camp was set up, and anyone who had nothing to do with them would be shot and killed if they approached, not to mention the strong men on the Haixi Jurchen side. If it wasn't for the introduction of the shopkeeper, these people would be shot and killed as spies a few miles away.

They were very nervous before they were led into the commander's tent. This time, they were going to meet Wang Tong. What kind of person is Wang Tong? The location of the Han land is not bad, Beishan Jurchen and those tribes in the old forest have rumors that Wang Tong is a hundred feet tall with a tiger head.

"This is my handsome man!"

Someone introduced that the three Jurchen men who came in didn't even have time to look at them, so they hurriedly prostrated.

"There's no need to be so polite. I'm asking you, are you afraid to die if you want to follow the army to avenge your revenge?"

Wang Tong asked gently. A 40-year-old man looked up and saw that Wang Tong was not a fierce man, but a strong warrior. He was stunned for a while, and then said loudly:

"The big guy's family members and relatives were raped and killed by those wild beasts. If you don't take revenge, you will have no face to see the gods in the sky and on earth. You have to find a solution yourself. Fight those wild beasts. You are not afraid of death."

The Chinese language is very blunt, and this man has been secretly looking at Wang Tong, wanting to see how this unremarkable Han man has such great abilities. He looks about thirty, stronger and taller than ordinary Han men, and his face is very calm. It's also a bit wrong. At first, it seems to be around 50, but the temperament and demeanor are like people in their [-]s, with a sense of maturity and vicissitudes that are not commensurate with their age.

"You are not afraid of death, but you are a good man. Since you are not afraid of death, you can go on your own. Why do you need to beg my commander?"

Wang Tong asked with a smile. Speaking of which, the Jurchen representatives below are a little hesitant. In such a situation, you can't say that you are afraid of the Japanese pirates' firearms, and the Japanese pirates have a large number of troops. North Korea has a special fear of the Jurchen forces. , Jurchens really want to gather people to go south to North Korea, don't look at North Korea is now being invaded by Japanese pirates, it is possible to join forces to fight together at that time.

The person who spoke at the head was really eloquent. After a pause, he opened his mouth and said:
"Marshal, our Haixi side is the Marshal's territory, we must listen to the Marshal and dare not move around. Only when the Marshal leads us, can we dare to go to revenge."

The Jianzhou area and Haixi area outside the side wall are now the Datun village of the Han people and the commercial industry and the villages of the Jurchens. In the Zhuangzi of the Han people, the Sanjiang system occupies a large share. with the idea of ​​capturing slave labor.

However, this Jurchen is also a local farming nation, and their living habits are similar to those of the Han people. Their combat effectiveness and cohesion are not weak. Although they have been beaten and defeated now, if they arrest people, there will be many troubles and casualties. Everyone has also changed their strategy. , It is generally carried out slowly in the form of hiring and buying.

Of course, at critical times, the guards of each family must kill people and set fire to them. However, it is a combination of grace and power, and the Jurchens are becoming more and more determined. Some villages actively form alliances with merchant groups and farms, and go into the mountains to capture savages. Tribes used as slaves.

The place outside the side wall is naturally respected by force. The largest armed merchant group is the most effective. The Sanjiang merchant group is naturally the largest, with the largest guards, the most money, and the most disciplined. The prestige of killing the Quartet is there. Over the past few years, the Jurchen ministries on the side wall feel that they are controlled by Wang Tong, and their family is on Wang Tong's territory.

When the man spoke like this, Wang Tong sat there and laughed, the laughter stopped, and he changed the subject and asked:

"How many of you can go to battle?"

"All ministries are passionate! No matter what, there are more than 5000 people!"

Hearing this number, Wang Tong was stunned for a moment, then asked again:
"How many horses can there be?"

"There are more than [-] riders."

"Choose the strongest of the [-] and go there. You go back to gather troops first. It's on the side of Bailangao. After four days, someone will come to join you."

Wang Tong patted the table slowly, and finally made a decision. The people below understood, but they were also a little dazed. One of them raised his head cautiously and said:

"Marshal, don't our soldiers and horses act together with the army?"

"Guo Bole, what are you talking about, the commander-in-chief has arranged it like this here, why don't you kowtow and kneel down!"

The shopkeeper had been listening in all along, and couldn't help but whispered to the side when he heard this, the goods that come out of this old forest really don't know the rules, Duke Liao talked to you so much, and made arrangements for you on the spot What a face, still asking here and there, really brain is broken.

The following people suddenly realized that they kowtowed and thanked them there. Now that the promise was made, they had to go back to prepare in a hurry. They also wondered how Wang Tong knew about Bailangao, where Xianjing Road and Haixi Jurchen area were handed over. A place, which can be regarded as a canyon terrain, is very suitable for gathering troops. In the past, the conferences of various ministries were often there.

"The Jurchens are still wild and untamed, and their strength is not small. The naturalized merchant groups are in Hetao and the west. We should use these people as guards."

Wang Tong said something nonchalantly, several people understood, Yang Sichen took notes there, but Ma Sanbiao was a little confused, Wang Tong didn't want to explain, just asked:
"We can use two thousand cavalry in our own cavalry. How much do you think the Datong cavalry can be used for?"

"Mr. Ma knows what's important. This time, they have sent a lot of veterans from the Ma family. Almost two thousand out of three thousand horses can get their hands on them."

Ma Sanbiao, as the general of the cavalry, was unequivocal about this and understood it very well. Wang Tong nodded and said:
"Our own cavalry selects one thousand cavalry, Datong cavalry selects one thousand cavalry, and you will be the commander. The rest of the cavalry will be handed over to Magui from Datong, Eunuch Cai, and we will arrange for a letter to be sent to the Jurchen place. It is said that the army is going to recruit volunteer cavalry, and within four days, let them bring their food and armor to join Bailangao, and they will not wait after the expiration date, Mr. Yang, go and invite Li Hutou to come over!"

While talking, it suddenly turned into conveying general orders. Although everyone felt sudden, they still hurriedly followed suit. Not long after, Li Hutou had arrived in the military tent. The young general back then was now a tall man. He was a strong young man with a heroic appearance, and he was admirable just looking at him. After seeing the ceremony, Wang Tong also smiled and asked him to come over and talk.

A map of North Korea has been laid out on the huge book case, and a small country has its advantages. The Ming Dynasty did not have a complete map, but the maritime merchants had already figured out the general topography of North Korea, and had a rough topographic map for a long time.

"After the whole army crosses the river, you immediately lead your army southward and station in Pyongyang City. This time, you will bring enough carts, and you will use the food and grass you brought along the way. When you arrive in Pyongyang, there will be ships transporting food from the sea. for you"

Wang Tong drew a line from Yizhou to Pyongyang with his finger, and Li Hutou watched carefully. This was just a normal march, nothing too surprising.

"After you are stationed in Pyongyang, immediately divide your troops to go to Hamgyong Road in the east. If you see it, it is here. My request to you is to deploy defenses on this line within ten days, guard the traffic arteries, Admiral North Korea is completely isolated from the south, what are you going to do?"

When Wang Tong said this, he swiped his finger to the right with Pyongyang as the endpoint. Li Hu pondered for a moment, then nodded and said:

"As long as the food and grass can keep up, this is not difficult. Arrange three regiments to go to Hamgyong Road, and the subordinates will lead four regiments in Pyongyang. Together with the rest of the troops, it is enough to block it."

The young man who had to ask about everything in the past is now a confident general, Wang Tong praised with a smile:
"Who are you going to arrange to go over there?"

"Tan Bing is steady, and Li Tao is good at fighting. These two are also old partners. It is suitable to send them there. The subordinates are also planning to arrange Yang Jin's Ji Town infantry to fill them, so the confidence is even greater!"

Wang Tong nodded in satisfaction, and said:
"In this case, I will give you a military order immediately and set off as soon as possible."

Li Hu hesitated for a moment, looked at the people in the military tent, Wang Tong waved his hand and said:

"It's all my family, there's nothing I can't say."

"Commander, this subordinate is taking the liberty. I feel that with the power of our army, why bother to go through so many troubles? We only need to go all the way south to meet and kill the enemy. North Korea's territory is narrow. Our army will go all the way, and the Japanese soldiers will avoid it." There is no way to avoid it, we can only fight decisively with us, the army will fight, and the mighty tiger army is invincible in the world."

"You're right. Let's force them over. When the Japanese pirates have nowhere to retreat, they will naturally fight us. However, is there really nowhere to retreat?"

Wang Tong said with a smile, while drawing a big circle on the map of North Korea, Li Hutou immediately understood, Wang Tong nodded and said:

"When they really have no way out, then it will be the time for the decisive battle. As for now, let's kill that Kato in Xianjing Road first, so as not to be distracted."

After finishing speaking, Wang Tong reached out and patted Li Hutou's shoulder, and said:
"On this road of Hamgyong Road, I will lead the cavalry to fight, and the brigade will be handed over to you to lead. Remember what I said, the key this time is not how much territory to occupy or how many enemies to kill, the key is to block and intercept. Now the southward It's too fast, but it will drive the Japanese pirates into a hurry, and there is not much result, do you understand?"

Li Hu took a step back, solemnly clasped his fists and said:

"Please rest assured, Commander, your subordinates will definitely do it."

Wang Tong exerted force on his hands and said with a smile:

"I am very assured of you, and you will definitely be able to do it."

After saying this, all the people in the handsome tent laughed, and the atmosphere became relaxed for a moment. Li Hutou looked back at the map, but Wang Tong looked to the west and said in a low voice:

"The key now is at sea!"
