Chapter 135 North to North

If you want to say where the famous Dagang in North Korea is, naturally Busan is the only one.

Busan is located in the southeast corner of the Korean Peninsula and was a famous port during the Korean Koryo dynasty. Moreover, the place name Busan also represents the meaning of port in Korean.

During the Wanli period, Toyoto Hideyoshi tried to use North Korea as a springboard to invade the Ming Dynasty. At that time, the Japanese invaders went from their homeland to Tsushima Island and then first captured the Korean port city Busan. After occupying Busan, the Japanese side took Busan as a stronghold to launch a plundering of North Korea.

If Emperor Wanli had not sent troops to rescue North Korea and finally drove the Japanese back to the mainland, perhaps the North Korean country would have ceased to exist long ago.

Now, Busan, North Korea, has been renamed Nangang, which belongs to the Ming Dynasty. This was directly obtained from North Korea when North Korea sent envoys to the Ming Dynasty to apologize. However, unlike the Jeju master, the Ming Dynasty did not implement a rule similar to Jeju, nor did it station warships and a large number of troops in Nangang. It only set up an official residence in Nangang in the name of the Minister of North Korea, and coupled with the former North Korean administrative yamen, it controlled the place.

So, except for the name changes, everything here is still the same.

The Ming army left Jeju and sailed directly to the northeast towards Nangang, and approached this place in one day.

When a large number of Ming warships appeared on the sea, the Koreans in Nangang were stunned. Originally, the Korean soldiers were not well prepared, and the North Korean army was not very incompetent and weak. The entire North Korea, their navy, could fight a little. The army had no strong combat power except for suppressing local governments and bullying the Korean people.

What's more, North Korea is now in serious civil strife. The king and the prince, including the regent, have lost their ability to control the situation in North Korea. The two factions of Lao Lun and Shao Lun are fighting each other. With the chaos in the royal city, various parts of North Korea are in chaos, and various factions attack and fight each other. Who can care about the others?

Therefore, when the Ming army warships came, except for the navy at the port, the rest of the troops, including its officials at the port, could not react at all. Even those navy troops, when they saw the overwhelming Ming warships coming in a fierce manner, they would not dare to resist at all. They either fled in a row in a row or even simply leaned on the dock and fled directly off the ship without a trace.

In this way, the Ming Dynasty landed the navy and almost did not encounter any resistance. They directly approached the port amid the rumbling cannons, and then set up a springboard. The soldiers boarded the North Korean land one by one from the ship. When the Ming army controlled the port, the North Korean troops had basically ran away and even disappeared.

"It's that simple?" Huang Palace looked a little strange as Zhu Yigui stepped onto the land of North Korea. Although he knew that North Koreans could not fight, this was too easy, right?

Before fighting with the Qing army, even if the Ming Dynasty had the upper hand, it would not be possible to win. I originally thought that no matter how convenient the North Koreans had the convenience of ports, and there were also facilities such as forts at the port, they would at least have a few shots to cause some trouble to the Ming army before they could give up resistance.

Now, just a few guns from the Ming army's warships fired, but no one ran away when the other party reacted. The entire landing battle was as easy as lying on the harbor and landing on weekdays.

"Send a team of people to search out from the dock, and the rest of the troops gathered quickly!" Zhu Yigui was also a little surprised, but as the commander, he still issued wartime orders, allowing the troops that had already landed to search inland from the dock, and at the same time gathered troops that had landed one after another.

"Zhu Shuai, Zhang Shuai is still behind, is it..." a military officer said hesitantly.

Zhu Yigui glared at him: "What? I don't count my orders?"

"This... a humble position... a humble position is just..." The army was sent by Zhang Fei, who was originally arranged to be with Zhu Yigui as a liaison officer. Originally, he just wanted to remind Zhu Yigui that the real commander of this battle was Zhang Fei. However, under Zhu Yigui's gaze, the army immediately felt a chill on his back and didn't know how to explain it for a while.

"Military information is like fire, and soldiers are very fast. I will explain to Shuai Zhang. You know what the consequences will be if you miss the opportunity to fight!"

"Yes... I'll go now..." The army responded repeatedly and ran to pass the order. When the army left, Zhu Yigui looked around and looked at Huang Dian and Wu Wai Dao beside him: "You two go over and take a look, let the divisions seize the time. It depends on us whether to eat meat or drink soup next to us."

"clear!"

When he heard Zhu Yigui's words, Huang Dian and Wu Wai didn't understand what he meant. They immediately took a few people to gather the landing troops.

After a moment, Zhu Yigui temporarily organized more than 4,000 troops who had landed first into four combat units, and then led his troops northward, regardless of the other 4,000 troops that had not landed, including commander Zhang Fei and logistics supplies.

When Zhang Fei learned the news, Zhu Yigui had already led the troops all the way and didn't know where they were going. Seeing this result, Zhang Fei was stunned by Zhu Yigui's actions, and then had no choice but to let the follow-up troops land quickly. At the same time, a force was sent to follow Zhu Yigui's direction of advancing to follow him, so as to prevent Zhu Yigui from going too far and thus suffering losses.

Zhang Fei’s worries were actually not necessary. Since the Ming army landed, all the Koreans in Nangang were scattered. Many Korean generals even understood what was wrong when they saw the Ming army’s large ships attacking. Although these guys usually get used to bragging themselves after drinking a few taels of wine, they even scolded the Ming Dynasty to show that they were loyal ministers of the Lee Dynasty in North Korea.

But when they were really facing the Ming army, these guys were already scared and their legs were weak. The reputation of the Celestial Kingdom has always been on the North Korean side. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty has made great martial arts over the years. Whether in China or overseas, they have almost fought invincible hands. Faced with such a powerful enemy, how can they, who only know how to bully the people, have the courage to fight against the Ming army?

In this way, when Zhu Yigui led his troops to advance towards the inland, North Korea did not organize any resistance. Even if a few young men who thought they were brave and brave, they were useless in front of the troops led by Zhu Yigui.

Who is Zhu Yigui? If we want to talk about command in front of the battle, he would be in the top three in the Ming Dynasty. Even the most elite troops of the Qing army were not taken seriously at all, let alone these Korean soldiers?
