Chapter 177: Guerrilla North Korea and the theory of maritime power

"Master Sun, how many people are there in the Dongliu entrenched in North Korea?" Yang Jie suddenly remembered a big mistake. North Korea is an important part of siege of wild boar skin. If North Korea does not siege of wild boar skin, then the desire to siege of wild boar skin to death and economically will be unlikely to be realized. Yang Jie felt that he was fortunate that Sun Chengzong reminded that otherwise, this big mistake would have cost him half his life!

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I don't know how many of them are. It's just that according to legend, some people who came back from Korea and Liaodong said that some said thousands, and some said hundreds. However, it is said that the Dongliu went to attack North Korea, but only 20,000 to 30,000 people were only used. From this point of view, there are not many people stationed in North Korea. As for how many, I can't judge. It may be hundreds, maybe one or two thousand. According to the news sent back by Lord Mao, there are only a few hundred people. This should be more reliable." Sun Chengzong himself was not sure how many people the Dongliu Later Jin stationed in North Korea.

Yang Jing felt that his information channels were not smooth, and his chief of staff could not figure out the specific number. It was cowardly enough to think about it. He actually heard a little bit of news for such big news. The function of the Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty to find out the news outside the pass was basically invalid in history. Alas! Cao Huachun's "Military Intelligence Bureau" has just opened, otherwise he would not have been blind.

"Mao Wenlong? Is this news accurate?" Yang Jie remembered Mao Wenlong, a guy with "guerrilla" wild boar skin. This guy, but he takes his own tens of thousands of taels of silver every month!

"I think that according to the current relationship between Mao Wenlong and His Majesty, it should be reliable. I don't dare to station too many troops in North Korea if I want to do so. Recently, they have been fighting Mongolia and clearing the way to pass the pass. They will not use too much troops in North Korea." Sun Chengzong did not have any confirmation, but just said that it is more reliable.

"This is, as Master Sun said, I really want to fight his family in North Korea! There are only a few hundred people, and it just happens to be able to train troops. However, my new army has just expanded, and it is far from the point of completing the training! I can't pull it out at all! North Korea's return to our country is a good thing. Even if the Donglu is basically blocked between the white mountains and black waters, the economy will collapse soon. Unfortunately, there is no confirmed news from North Korea..." Yang Jing heard that North Korea only has hundreds of wild boar skins, and thought it could be fought. The soldiers must always be pulled out to fight. Without bloody battles, they will not grow. As for how many people there are in North Korea, Yang Jing felt that he might find it in his dream. This, he has an advantage, and what he likes the most is this kind of information asymmetry.

"Your Majesty, I'm not afraid of this. It's only the end of April and there's enough time. It's not too late to send Sezuo to North Korea to find out the news! Your Majesty wants to send troops to attack North Korea?... I have an idea, I don't know whether to say it or not." Seeing that the emperor said to the emperor and attacked North Korea, Sun Chengzong made serious suggestions to the emperor.

"Imagine? What's the idea? Master Sun just say it." Yang Jie also wanted to hear what Sun Chengzong said.

"Your Majesty, the training of recruits is now progressing. I think that in September this year, the basic training of recruits will be completed. At that time, Your Majesty can send troops to North Korea. If you feel it is unsafe, you can dispatch a single elite member of Mao Wenlong. In this way, it will be no problem to clear out hundreds of Eastern Captains entrenched in North Korea." Sun Chengzong put forward his own suggestions.

"Master Sun said, cross-sea attack? I will fight in October this year?" Yang Jing felt that Sun Chengzong's thinking has changed a lot recently. At the beginning, he mainly focused on how to defend. Now, he always has to go out to fight. He also cross-sea, which surprised Yang Jing.

"Go back to Your Majesty, indeed, in October, you can go out to fight. In October, you gathered and took a boat to Mao Wenlong's Pi Island. There were repairs for a few days, and gathered Mao Wenlong's elite troops, about five or six thousand people enough. Then at the end of October and early November, you will use a sea boat to cross the sea near Seoul, North Korea to land. You can first send a secret envoy to hold the edict of Your Majesty to secretly inform the Korean monarch and ministers, and ask them to assist in the clearance of the Eastern Captains. There are only a few hundred Eastern Captains, how to defend the four-sided city gates and four-sided city walls? Therefore, even if the Eastern Captains hear the news, they are just a mantis arm to block the chariot. Your Majesty can use less than 10,000 people to make North Korea return to our country. In this way, the Eastern Captains will definitely have many concerns if they want to enter the pass in the future. This strategy will make the Eastern Captains dare not detour to enter the pass at will..." Sun Chengzong simply expressed his ideas.

Yang Jing thought for a while and felt that this attention was good. First, he could train troops, and second, he could win over an important ally and lock the wild boar skin back into poor mountains and rivers. More importantly, he would have to go to North Korea in the future. Now that he would come to North Korea, he would have to ask for a garrison. In this way, he could have a garrison in North Korea. With a garrison, he would have to do whatever he wanted. This vassal state is worthy of its reputation. In the future, it would be his own dish.

"Master Sun's idea is good. In this way, North Korea can return to the embrace of the Ming Dynasty! If the Donglu wants to detour into the pass in the future, it must first solve the North Korean issue. In this way, it is possible that the decisive battle between our North Korea and the Donglu will start with the battle for North Korea!" Yang Jing suddenly became enlightened, thinking that this was really a stroke of magic.

"Report to Your Majesty, it is indeed possible to effectively restrain the forces of the Dongliu. If they are concerned about the gains and losses of North Korea, they are very likely to send troops to seize North Korea. In this way, the battle between the Dongliu and our country is really as Your Majesty said. The battle will start in Korea first! Haha... The battle between the war and the country is so better, so our country will not have to worry about the people being affected by the war, and they can be avoided from losses and harm..." Sun Chengzong said this and laughed. If the Dongliu and the Ming Dynasty fought in North Korea, it would be really thankful to God.

Decisive battle abroad? Yang Jing has heard a lot of this statement in the future. However, in the future, decisive battle abroad is a ridiculed word with a "derogatory meaning". It applies to the TW area and is the combat idea of ​​TW. "Haha, Master Sun, has cleared down the Donglu of North Korea, how does Master Sun plan to face the reinforcements of the Donglu?" If you drag the wild boar skin to North Korea, you must face the reinforcements of the wild boar skin.

"Go back to Your Majesty, I will send troops at the end of October and arrive in Seoul in early November. At this time, it is estimated that it will snow north of Seoul, so the road has been blocked. I guess the news cannot be transmitted to Dongliu. So what if it is transmitted to Dongliu? Could it be that Dongliu still dares to send troops to North Korea in November and February? It is cold that day, how can I send troops? If I want to send troops, it must be next year. Even if I send troops immediately after spring, I will arrive in Seoul and fight at least in February and March. There will be a few months left for Your Majesty to prepare a lot of things." Sun Chengzong said with a smile.

"Haha, Master Sun, it's really easy to calculate. This weather has been included. Indeed, it is unlikely that the Donglu would send troops to North Korea in November and February. In this way, it will be next year. There is still a lot of time to prepare. However, Master Xu, how are you going to fight the Donglu in North Korea? Master Sun must consider that the field ability of our soldiers is not high, and these North Korean soldiers should not rely on them... It is even worse than ours..." Yang Jing felt that Sun Chengzong chose a good time, just in the month when Wild Boar Skin knew about it, he could not send troops. In the past two months, that winter, in ancient times, it would be cold. Wild Boar Skin probably did not have the determination to force the troops to risk huge casualties. He also expressed great contempt for the combat effectiveness of North Korea.

"Your Majesty, I have already planned this. Have you forgotten the grenade of Your Majesty? The old man has studied this grenade a lot these days and found that the grenade is slightly heavier. However, it is a weapon to use it as a defender! Even if North Korea does not have the courage to fight with the Donglu, it should be no problem to defend the city and throw grenades down. It is probably possible to greatly alleviate the time of the Donglu's attack and kill the Donglu in large quantities. In this way, even if the Donglu arrives in Seoul, there will be countless casualties. If the Donglu is powerful, your Majesty can withdraw its troops back to the ship. At most, it can be used to take it away with a ship. If the Donglu soldiers are small and few, your Majesty can defend the city and even counterattack. What Your Majesty has to do is to consume the Donglu with grenades..." Sun Chengzong said in a leisurely manner, saying a plan was perfect.

Yang Jie was stunned, "This, Master Sun, are you saying, let me... export weapons to North Korea? Export grenades?" Yang Jie felt that Sun Chengzong's thoughts were too open and kept pace with the times!

Sun Chengzong smiled and said, "Indeed, Your Majesty, our court and North Korea want to attack the Donglu and fight with the Donglu Lang in the wild. They may not be able to do so. However, when it comes to defending the city, they have some combat power. What's more, this is just using grenades to consume the Donglu. Your Majesty, it's a big deal!" When it comes to using grenades to consume the Donglu's troops, Sun Chengzong smiled and was full of confidence.

Sun Chengzong didn't know what was wrong, but suddenly he got to know his mind that he was leading the way to export weapons to his allies and consumed the strength of his enemies. Yang Jing was also surprised! Grenades were just one of the secret weapons he was preparing to use to save his life when he was fighting against the wild boar skin. Now, Sun Chengzong actually saw its power and let himself export grenades to North Korea, let North Korea and wild boar skin consume, and use the North Koreans to bleed the wild boar skin. This move is not poisonous!

Yang Jing applauded and said, "Master Sun is a great talent! Haha! In this way, if the Donglu has few soldiers, he will not be able to capture North Korea at all, and he will even be pursued by me. If there are many soldiers, I have the benefits of a sea ship, so I can withdraw it. After the Donglu leaves, I will continue to use troops to North Korea. In this way, the Donglu will probably be entangled in North Korea, let alone detours to enter the pass. It is a good plan and a good plan! Master Sun, in this way, it will definitely be able to restrain the Donglu for many years! If the Donglu abandons North Korea, it is better. These three encirclements can encircle the Donglu to death.

In less than a few years, the Donglu may have starved to death... Hahaha... Good strategy, I think this strategy can be summarized in sixteen words: "The enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy stops and I disturb you, the enemy is tired, I fight, the enemy retreats and I chase you." What do Master Sun think?" Yang Jie suddenly thought of **'s sixteen-character formula. This is the highest level of guerrilla warfare! These sixteen words are just in line with his current North Korean strategy, and can drag the wild boar skin to death. Instead, laugh out loud. Once this North Korean strategy is implemented, the wild boar skin will be peeled off even if it is not dead!

"The enemy advances and retreats, the enemy stops and disturbs me, the enemy is tired, and I fight, the enemy retreats and I chases me, okay, okay! These sixteen words are really the sixteen-character mantra of North Korea's strategy. Your Majesty is great, great talent! One sentence tells the entire essence of the Korean war! Your Majesty's wiseness..." Sun Chengzong suddenly realized his heart when he heard these sixteen words from the emperor. Many vague joints and details were clear one by one. He immediately stared at the emperor with his eyes shining, praising the emperor. The emperor's understanding is really rare!

Yang Jie blushed in his heart. He was just a crystallization of wisdom from future generations.

"Your Majesty, this is what I agree with my plan. Using this grenade to consume the Dongliu in North Korea? Using Your Majesty's sixteen-character mantra, you will definitely trap the Dongliu to death and grind it to North Korea!" Sun Chengzong's serious face, today, smiled.

"Agree, how do you disagree? I not only want to sell grenades to North Korea, but also prepare to send a military training team to help North Korea train how to throw grenades, hahaha... good deal, good deal..." Yang Jing avoided talking about his sixteen-character mantra, and instead talked about military export transactions. Thinking that he also had export weapons, he felt that he had not come to the Ming Dynasty for a day when he was an arms dealer. This kind of thing could actually be done in the Ming Dynasty, and it was refreshing and enjoyable.

"In this way, the day of the demise of the Eastern Barbarians is expected, but this grenade requires a huge amount. Your Majesty may have to speed up the production, otherwise, it may not be enough!" Sun Chengzong reminded.

"Haha, Master Sun, don't worry, I understand this, I will find a way. By the way, Master Sun, please write a detailed plan and plan for this North Korean strategy first, see how to implement it, specific details, and what measures to take when encountering problems. I will promote the war according to Master Sun's plan, that is, the generals on the front line can understand my intentions, and in this way, the battle will definitely be smoother." Yang Jing gave this task to Sun Chengzong again. Once this plan is implemented, Yang Jing believes that North Korea will definitely return to the Ming Dynasty, or that North Korea will become a place where it bleeds the wild boar skin.

"Abide by your order, Your Majesty, but I have another thing to ask Your Majesty to show you." Sun Chengzong said again.

"What's the matter? Just say it?" Yang Jingwei was very happy.

"Your Majesty, this cross-sea expedition requires a lot of sea ships. This new warship and sea ship is too late. Some naval warships may have to be recruited for escorts. Some transport ships, transport personnel, food, firearms, etc. This may require some merchant ships. This requires your Majesty to give instructions." Sun Chengzong made some suggestions.

"Yes, no problem, Master Sun, you can grasp this yourself how many ships you need and how many warships you need. Just list them and you can also use them as backups. I will definitely strongly support this, whether it is new, purchased, or requisitioned, it is no problem." Yang Jingwei knew the importance of this ship, so he naturally had to support it vigorously and take full advantage of it. He would never be stingy with this problem.

"As for your order, Your Majesty!" Seeing that the emperor accepted his opinion, Sun Chengzong was full of confidence in his plan.

To be honest, Yang Jing felt that it was incredible that Sun Chengzong had such offensive thinking. When did the literati and officials of the Ming Dynasty like to attack? Even the famous generals in the late Ming Dynasty were cautious in attacking externally, with more defenses and fewer attacks. Yang Jing was very curious about what changed Sun Chengzong's ideas.

"Master Sun, I'm very curious. Why did Master Sun suddenly have such an understanding and interest in the navy, the ocean, and the cross-sea attack? I can't believe that my master would make such a cross-sea attack. This is really a bit beyond my expectations!" Yang Jingwei was very curious and decided to ask Sun Chengzong.

Sun Chengzong said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I am also influenced by Your Majesty, so I have become interested in this ocean, and I am interested in cross-sea combat and mobilizing troops. Your Majesty, I want to find a way out for the people of the Ming Dynasty. This way out must be on the sea. I still remember your Majesty's teachings. How can I forget it? There is no need for warships or sea boats on this sea, how can I find a way out for the people of our dynasty? That is, at that time, I gradually became concerned about the matter at this sea, and I have a new understanding of this warship and ocean. To be honest, I am not afraid of your majesty's jokes, I have been reading some copywriting and books about the eunuch Zheng He of the Three Guards recently. I have a very deep impression of the few words said by eunuchs of the Three Guards. I am willing to share it with Your Majesty."

"Oh? Those words?" Yang Jie asked curiously.

"If you want a country to be prosperous and strong, you must not ignore the ocean. The ocean is taken from wealth, and the danger also comes from the sea... Once the king of another country captures the South China Sea, China will be in danger. Our fleet is invincible, and we can expand business and subdue foreign lands, so that they dare not covet the South China Sea..." Sun Chengzong shook his head and recited these words. When he recited, his expression was extremely serious and extremely happy.

Yang Jing was shocked! Theory of Hai Quan? Zheng He's?

"Okay! OK! OK! OK, Hai Quan Theory! I like it, good, good, good, good, good! OK, good, this is very good..." Yang Jing really couldn't express his inner excitement. He had to keep praising this good.

"What Zheng He said and thought about is really a famous saying. When it comes to my heart, I admire it. I admire it! Unexpectedly, in our dynasty, hundreds of years ago, someone had such foresight and greatness! Alas... It's a pity! The huge fleet is gone forever, and the huge fleet can never be seen again! Now even if I fight a small Japanese pirate or hundreds of people, I have to say all good things to my ministers, and I have to build it from scratch! What a pity, it's a pity! It's also pitiful! I miss me a big deal!

Why did the people of the Ming Dynasty suffer so much?" Yang Jing first admired Zheng He and then sighed. If the Ming Dynasty had maintained such a huge fleet, let alone Japan and the Spanish, even if the people from all over Europe were combined, they would not be the opponent of the Ming Dynasty! This America is the American of the Chinese, and this Australia is the Australian of the Chinese! This Pacific Ocean is the inland sea of ​​China! Unfortunately, it was all "end" by the elites of the Ming Dynasty.

Yang Jingang was angry at the pretentiousness of the Ming Dynasty elites. He did not have a god-like opponent, but had a pig-like teammate. He hated the Ming Dynasty elites so much that they were itchy.
Chapter completed!
