"Brothers, sit down!" On the west bank of the Yalu River, a transport ship docked on the bank, and a captain smiled and spoke to the soldiers of the Dongjiang Army where he landed, and then ordered the ship to sail.

Each of them looked very relaxed, not at all serious about landing on the other side to fight.In fact, it wasn't just them, there were also soldiers waiting to board the ship on the shore, and transport ships waiting to dock on the river.

The reason why it is so easy is that besides the great victory of Liaodong's recovery, the Ming army's navy dominates the Yalu River. In fact, the remnants of the Qing Dynasty on the other side have no ships at all, so they can only stay on the head of Sinuiju City, far away. Watching the excitement on this side of the Yalu River.

A small transport ship, without the cover of a warship, was farther away from the shore where Sinuiju was located, and landed on the shore after choosing a suitable location.Just when the first Ming army soldier set foot on the east bank of the Yalu River, a fire broke out in the city of Sinuiju. The remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty set fire to the city, and then fled eastward in a hurry.

Seeing this situation, the soldiers of the Ming army who went ashore must not be able to catch up, so they couldn't help complaining loudly: "Grandma, don't these Manchus claim to be invincible in field battles, don't they claim to be warriors of the Qing Dynasty? Why? What happened, he just ran away with his tail between his legs, what kind of warrior is this?"

Among the soldiers of the Ming army who went ashore immediately, there were also some people who sighed, looked back at the other side of the Yalu River, looked at the handsome flag, and muttered: "Your Excellency, I don't know what to think. Obviously, the Manqing in Sinuiju can be stopped. As a result, they came here with great fanfare, and it would be strange if they didn't scare them away!"

After he said this, no one dared to agree, but someone smiled and put forward another statement: "Hehe, how do I feel, it feels good to show off like this and scare the remnants of the Qing Dynasty to flee after hearing the news!"

And a general flag who landed later, heard what they said, and reprimanded the person who complained in front: "It's strange if you can guess what the governor thinks! Do your job well, and turn around." Let's see how we wiped out these remnants of the Qing Dynasty under the command of the governor!"

For the old leader, Lu Xiangsheng's prestige in the Dongjiang Army is beyond doubt.Therefore, this soldier just said it casually, was reprimanded by the superior, and quickly apologized.

"Let's go, let's go, put out the fire!" Zongqi yelled loudly, and left without waiting for the follow-up troops to gather.Today's Dongjiang Army, their psychological advantage over the Manchus is already the same as the psychological advantage that the Manchus had over the Dongjiang Army before.

At this time, Lu Xiangsheng, who was on the west bank, had already seen this scene through a telescope, so he told Wei Mulan, who had been promoted to a hundred households of Jinyiwei, by his side: "Report to the emperor, just say that our army has begun to cross the river. If you dare to fight, you have already set fire and fled!"

Hearing this, Wei Mulan immediately agreed, and entered the chat group to report.

And Lu Xiangsheng didn't wait, turned his head to look at another young man beside him and said, "General Cao, it's time for your new army to cross the river!"

This Cao Zongbing is not Cao Wenzhao, but Cao Bianjiao.Now he has realized his dream back then, and he is at the same level as Wu Sangui again.It could even be said that it was actually Wu Sangui's turn to envy him.After all, even though they are both commanders, Cao Bianjiao's army is the most capable army of Ming Dynasty, which is almost equal to the emperor's army, which is far from comparable to the army of Datong commander.

When Cao Bianjiao heard Governor Lu's order, he smiled and agreed easily: "This kind of battle is really frustrating. It would be great if there is a tough battle!"

Young people, passionate and impulsive, eager to shed their blood.He said it so casually, but he didn't expect that it attracted Lu Xiang's face, and he listened to him teach: "You are now the commander-in-chief of a side, how can you have such an idea? Go to the army to plan, and you will surrender without fighting." Soldiers are the best strategy, the second is to crush the enemy with strength, and the worst thing is to fight tough and dangerous battles..."

Cao Bianjiao felt regretful in his heart when he heard it, and when he said it later, he wouldn't really have to do this. He didn't expect to attract the earnest words of the governor, and his mouth was really cheap!

So, he immediately confessed his guilt sincerely.

In fact, Lu Xiangsheng could understand what Cao Bianjiao said just now, after all, he was also young.Moreover, he has been with Cao Bianjiao for a long time, and he also knows Cao Bianjiao's ability, and he knows the composition of the new army.But when he got older, he seemed to be a bit nagging, and it didn't take much effort to talk about a few words.

As he thought about it, Feng Dehua, the eunuch standing beside him, looked at Cao Bianjiao, who was flattened, and smiled there.When the Korean War is over, the new army will be transferred back to the capital. At that time, I will be able to officially take up my post as a military supervisor. Unexpectedly, I will also be a eunuch with palm prints!
When Feng Dehua was thinking about it with emotion, he suddenly saw Wei Mulan come back to his senses, and said to Lu Xiangsheng with a serious face: "Your Majesty has an order to say that the pressure on North Korea to clean up the remnants of the North Korea will be lightened, which will make Dorgon There are still illusions. Therefore, His Majesty has decided that the new army will start by sea to put some pressure on Dorgondo..."

Hearing Wei Mulan utter the emperor's will one by one, Lu Xiangsheng suddenly had a question in his mind.After all, the pressure on the remnants of the Qing Dynasty had been reviewed by the emperor, but now he said that the pressure on this side was a little less, so there must be some accident, so he asked this idea out.

After hearing this, Wei Mulan nodded and said, "Your Majesty received the news that Dorgon tried to collect all the food before leaving. There is indeed a lot of food, and His Majesty does not want him to succeed!"

In fact, the original plan was that the army would approach Seoul before the autumn harvest in the Qing Dynasty.But according to the emperor's intention, it seems that Dorgon wants to harvest in advance, so that the action here will be slow according to the original plan.

When this idea was verified, Lu Xiangsheng immediately agreed and started to act immediately.

The preparations for crossing the river to the other side and starting by sea are completely different.However, there is a chat group, and the navy has already received the emperor's order and has come to transport new troops.

The freshly prepared new army, escorted by hundreds of transport ships and more than a dozen bow warships, finally disappeared in a mighty way along the Yalu River at the end of the field of vision.

Li Zhiqi, the commander of the navy in the fleet, was a little depressed when he saw the new army talking and laughing on board.The majestic navy of the Ming Dynasty has no naval warfare (water warfare) to fight, and has been completely reduced to a transport fleet. Can this still be called a navy?

Thinking of this, he was a little envious of the Fujian Navy, at least they could suppress pirates and the like.This Man Qing is really incompetent, he doesn't even have a navy division, it's a waste of his skills, he can only watch the army fighting for success there!

But I don’t know why, logically speaking, the Denglai Navy no longer needs to build warships, but they can still accept new warships. This also shows that the shipyards that supply the Denglai Navy have not closed down. So many ships were built, could it be that the emperor had other intentions?

In Li Zhiqi's perplexity, the fleet continued to advance along the coastline day and night. After resting on the re-activated Pidao, it continued to advance again, and disappeared again from the sight of the Ming army in Pidao.

And in the royal palace in Seoul, North Korea, Dorgon, who had never smiled since he knew the fall of Liaodong, finally looked a lot better on this day. smiled.

"It seems that the Ming army is making slow progress in Liaodong, so it is only now gathering on the banks of the Yalu River, and did not invade North Korea at the beginning, giving us a chance to breathe!"

When Duo Duo heard Dorgon's emotion, he couldn't help but smiled and said: "If you want me to say, maybe the emperor of the Ming Dynasty doesn't care about North Korea anymore. He won't care about such a poor country! Send the army to Once the Yalu River is released, it’s over to defend Liaodong. Otherwise, why didn’t the emperor’s banner appear on the other side, he must have gone back!”

It’s been a long time since the emperor’s flag is gone on the other side, and the Ming army has only just started to gather. This side was worried at first, but seeing the Ming army’s movements made them feel relieved a lot.Because they could see that the Ming army did not intend to invade North Korea in one fell swoop.

Hearing Duo Duo's words, Dorgon was not so optimistic and said: "It is impossible for the Ming Dynasty not to worry about North Korea. In the past, when the Wa Kingdom occupied North Korea, the Ming Dynasty sent troops. Now we occupy here, North Korea The Qing Dynasty is the main one. Even if the emperor of the Ming Dynasty wants to save face, he will definitely solve the North Korean issue. But now he has missed the best time and gave us time to prepare. When the Ming Dynasty attacks again, we will not have much Worried about it!"

For a long time, an important factor restricting the combat power of the Qing Dynasty was the shortage of food and materials. This is the same whether it is North Korea or Liaodong.Hungry has almost become the norm for the warriors of the Qing Dynasty.

However, without the burden of Liaodong, after the autumn harvest in North Korea, at least the warriors of the Qing Dynasty could have enough to eat. As for the North Koreans, that was secondary and could not be taken care of.According to Dorgon's estimation, even if the Ming army on the Yalu River started to attack North Korea, it would be too late.Therefore, he explained that the army's delay eventually missed the best opportunity.

Duoduo patted his chest and said: "So, in fact, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is like that. If he didn't have a strong army, a lot of supplies, and a place as rich as the Ming Kingdom, how could he destroy the Qing Dynasty. To be honest, if I go to sit in his position, believe it or not, I will do better than him!"

After finishing speaking, seeing Dorgon smiling, he added: "It would be the best if you go and sit in his seat! You must be doing better than anyone else!"

Hearing Doduo bragging, Azig smiled even though he knew it was impossible, and his situation became optimistic, and his mood was no longer so panicked at the beginning.

But at this moment, hurried footsteps came suddenly, and a messenger arrived, telling the Ming army to start crossing the river. According to Dorgon's order, the guard of Xinyizhou felt that he could not hold it, so he set fire to the city and went to the city. Then retreated.

Hearing the news, Dorgon was not in a hurry at all, and immediately nodded to express his understanding, and sent the messenger away without haste.Then, he turned his head to look at Duoduo and Azig and said: "The Ming army is still attacking. If that's the case, let's harvest the grain in advance according to the plan!"

"Yes, we collect grain in advance, and if we fortify the walls and clear the fields, we might be able to consume the attacking Ming army in North Korea without going to Japan!" Duoduo nodded excitedly and said immediately.

Dorgon listened, and there was a trace of expectation in his eyes.This kind of strategy has not been used by the rulers of North Korea in the past.The Sui and Tang Dynasties used to be strong. When they attacked here, they were dragged down by this trick many times, and even the Sui Dynasty, which was powerful for a while, paid the price of destroying the country.

However, Dorgon was more sensible after all, and he stopped thinking about things, but began to issue orders, preparing to grab food.This kind of physical work was naturally done by North Koreans. Wu Daji was passed on, and the order was given to him.

"Your Highness, if you wait a little longer, you can harvest more food. I have waited for so many days, so why not wait a few more days?" Wu Daji suggested to Dorgon with a regretful expression.

Dorgon shook his head, and said firmly: "We can't wait any longer, the Ming army will be able to attack in a few days!"

"Could it be... can't we let some soldiers eat their stomachs first, and stop the Ming army at the front?" Wu Daji seemed a little unwilling, and came up with an idea, "In this way, we can wait for the food to grow and harvest!"

This time, Dorgon didn't speak anymore, and Duo Duo had already reprimanded loudly: "Shut up, just do it, don't be too long-winded!"

After cursing, he couldn't help adding: "If you Koreans can withstand the attack of the Ming army, then you can try it! But can you Koreans? You can't even deal with a rebel, let's talk about blocking it." Ming army!"

From the beginning to the end, he never mentioned that the Qing Dynasty sent troops to stop it.Dorgon, on the other hand, sighed in his heart. If he had enough troops in his hands and was not afraid of consumption, he could do this, but...

It's useless to think about it too much. The matter of collecting grain was handed over to Wu Daji, the matter of preventing the North Korean rebels from making trouble was handed over to Doduo, and the issue of retreat in the rear was handed over to Azig to verify the arrangement again.He is prepared with both hands, but he does not want to leave North Korea unless it is absolutely necessary.

However, he did not expect that in the early morning of the next day, there was no time to start the action here, and something happened suddenly.

Only fifty miles away from Seoul by the sea, there is a place that is famous in later generations, called Incheon.This side was originally the Incheon Protectorate of North Korea, where it guarded the flanks of Seoul, and the specifications were relatively high.But there is no food, and the North Koreans were tossed by the Qing Dynasty. There are also sparsely populated here, with only a small number of troops.

Just as they were stunned, a mighty fleet appeared on the sea of ​​Incheon, flying the flag of Ming Dynasty, close to the coast, and a natural deep-water port, allowing the Ming army to land quickly.The defenders on the coast of Incheon didn't think about resisting at all, and immediately fled in all directions.
