Restoring the glory of the Han people and letting them go to the top of the world has always been Yang Chendong's life goal that has not changed. In order to achieve this goal, he needs more Han Chinese, and he needs to scatter them like seeds. And in the war, it is a very good way to seek more Han people to vote.

The mercenaries began to take in the Han people, and would arrange their food, clothing, shelter and transportation, this matter was arranged by the two major intelligence agencies of the Security Bureau and the CIA, and soon spread throughout the battlefield, for a time many Han people who were affected by the war and homeless, as if they had found the light, thinking of the law from the original place to Lang Son rushed to Langshan, they knew that once they could get there, all the problems in front of them would be solved, their lives would have hope again, and their lives would be guaranteed.

This practice of the mercenaries soon attracted the attention of the Warring Emperor Nanming, the King of Nanming, and the King of Xiping. Seeing that they were not spending money to buy people, but were trying to rely on the war to gather personnel, they naturally disagreed, tried their best to obstruct them, and even maliciously released some rumors, saying that once they arrived in Langshan, it would be difficult to survive, and it was better to continue to stay in their hometown.

The three forces actually reached a joint intention on this matter, and the impact was naturally not small, and some people who did not want to leave their homes in the first place naturally chose to stay. But when the war continued, and the people found that they had land that they could not plant, and that they could not buy food with money, they were motivated to leave. It's just that because of the government's inconvenience, they began to use various methods, some of them fled, some spent money to buy roads from the hands of officers and soldiers, in a word, they must leave here, and they may be affected at any time under the war to the point where they lost their lives.

In this way, every day, people from all directions would rush to the entrance of Lang Son, where General Hung Kim had prepared a large amount of food waiting for them. As long as these people are here, they are safe, and they are protected by him.

Because Hong Jin is behind a powerful mercenary army, and none of the three forces wants to provoke him, this place has really become a paradise and a safe place away from the war. For a while, the number of civilians under Yang Chendong's influence began to increase slowly, and every few days General Hong Jin would arrange for soldiers to escort these Han Chinese to the seaside dock belonging to Vietnam Province, where a naval battle naturally awaited them, and sent them to the safest place, Chichicheng.

To say that Daizong Zhu Qiyu and Yingzong Zhu Qizhen are really brothers. The Southern Ming Dynasty has already started a war here, and the Northern Ming Dynasty is also preparing for war, and Daizong issued an edict to rename the Nuergandu region in the north as Liaodong, and at the same time levy 100,000 cavalry from there for the purpose of the western expedition. At the same time, they also bought war horses in the eastern Liaodong region, and the idea of forming a strong cavalry had already been announced to the world.

It's just that the number of war horses in the Liaodong region is also limited, that is, many of them have to buy war horses from various forces in the grassland. And if you want to say who has the strongest power in Mongolia now, who has the most horses in their hands, it is undoubtedly the first place in Shicheng.

The first city was built by Yang Chendong with great effort, and even when it comes to the amount of personal energy invested, it is far better than the red embedded city. The latter he just took out a lot of things from the big warehouse and put forward some feasible suggestions, far from being like Shicheng, which he created single-handedly.

Shicheng is the first Siam built by Yang Chendong on the grassland, full of political and political significance, symbolic significance, and is the economic and cultural center and model city built by him, which not only has the largest grassland commercial street, but also the largest vegetable base, grain base and war horse breeding base on the grassland.

As early as when the city was built, Yang Chendong spent a lot of financial resources to buy a lot of breeding horses at high prices, and invited many experienced horse breeders to breed and breed war horses. After two years, it finally got results, and the number of war horses began to increase, and it deservedly became the largest war horse base on the grassland.

In fact, the breeding of war horses is not difficult, as long as there are talents and materials, they can be built. And the climate of the grassland is originally suitable for the growth of war horses, but the fact that others can't do this is not because of their lack of determination, but because they don't invest enough.

Just like when the Tang Dynasty was established, it was because of enough investment that soon the war horse was cultivated, so that the Turks were defeated later. Now with strong financial resources, plus the existence of mercenaries, it is a deterrent, and there is no need to worry about who will fight their ideas, and the scale of this war horse cultivation foundation is getting bigger and bigger, which also makes Beiming have to fight their ideas.

Naturally, Beiming didn't dare to grab it openly if he had an idea. According to the excerpt on Shi Wanshan, the general soldier of Xuanfu, the combat power of the mercenaries in Shicheng is very strong, just the combat power of a new army is daunting, not to mention that in Mobei City, thousands of miles away from Shicheng, there are more than 20,000 mercenary cavalry, once there is danger here, the other party can arrive in less than three days, if you want to rob it, there will basically be no other result except asking for hardship.

Even if you can't rob it, you can only think about spending money to buy it. It's just that Beiming's money was used for the training of the million new army and the development of muskets and artillery, where is the money to buy war horses? Besides, the price of a good war horse is not cheap.

To say that Beiming does have some talents, soon some ministers proposed to buy horses on credit, for example, they were willing to offset the future expenses borrowed by mercenaries; There are also proposals that they can take out loans from the Yangjia Bank in Beiming. Even if businessmen can take out loans, why can't Beiming?

These opinions made Zhu Qiyu, who was having a headache, overjoyed, and agreed immediately. On the one hand, it was arranged for Jin Ying, the chief eunuch of the eunuch, to negotiate with the person in charge of the Yangjia Bank in Jingshi, and on the other hand, he notified Deng Qiang, the eunuch guarding the town guard in Xuancheng, to go to Shicheng to negotiate in an expedited manner of 800 li.

In short, no matter what method is used, as long as you can get a war horse, it will be a great achievement.

In Zhu Qiyu's view, he is the emperor of a country, and he will definitely get what he wants within his own rule. But in front of the mercenaries, this assumption was naturally broken. In a word, mercenaries recognize money but not people.

Deng Qiang naturally touched his nose, and Yu Mian's answer was very simple, considering that everyone is Han, and Yang Chendong is still a loyal and courageous prince of the emperor, then everyone is not an outsider, and the war horse can be sold to you, but you must come up with enough money, otherwise, everything will not be discussed.

It's even simpler with Yangjia Bank. You only borrowed five million taels of silver from us last year, and you haven't paid back a single cent, so how can you be lending money to you now? This is not in line with the law of business development and is not allowed.

The two sides that were pinned on high hopes were hit hard because of this, and this result made Zhu Qiyu very frustrated, and he was also very angry, and he felt even more disgraced. It's just that he doesn't have the courage of his ancestors, let alone the strength of his ancestors, and he has no way to face the mercenaries whose strength is no weaker than theirs.

And it was at this time that the envoy of North Korea came to Beiming and came to pay tribute as he had done in the previous year, and all the turmoil began with this tribute.

In 1338 AD, the king of Goryeo sent the capital commander Yi Sung-gye to attack the Nuer Gandusi area, and Yi Sung-gye took the opportunity to stage a coup d'état. In 1392 AD, Yi Sung-gye deposed the king of Goryeo, established himself as king, and changed the name of the country to Joseon, with the capital of Hanyang (now Seoul, South Korea), known as the Joseon Dynasty in history.

The Joseon Dynasty pursued a policy of advocating Confucianism and rejecting Buddhism. To adopt the doctrine of doing great things to the Ming Dynasty is to be a vassal to the Ming Dynasty, which is one of the non-conquest countries declared by Ming Taizu.

The same is not a conquest country, North Korea and the Ming Dynasty is closer, this may be because of the geographical location, since the establishment of Korea, every king must be recognized by the Ming Dynasty, before he can ascend the throne, will be regarded as orthodox.

The relationship between the two sides was so good that when North Korea sent envoys to pay tribute, the Northern Ming Emperor would often give him face.

This time there was no difference from the past, and Zhu Qiyu, the emperor of Daizong, still had to meet the North Korean envoy as usual. The difference is that this time the envoy was not sent by the sixth king of Joseon, Yi Hongwei, but a subordinate of Li Hongwei's uncle, the prince of Shouyang.

At this time, North Korea was experiencing a difficult time.

The so-called martyrdom of Guiyoujing occurred during the period of Duanjong of Joseon, and it was an incident in which the uncle of Duanjong of Joseon, the prince of Shouyang, Li Yao, launched a coup d'état and usurped the throne. Its essence is the cannibalism of the North Korean royal family, and now it is being fought. In this regard, the Northern Ming Imperial Court also received the news sent back by the Jinyi Wei secret agent sent there, but considering that this is the internal affairs of other countries, and there are many headaches in the Northern Ming Dynasty, it has not paid attention to it.

Maybe the Northern Ming court already knew, maybe they didn't know and didn't care, in short, the situation in North Korea is getting clearer, and it is Li Jin's family that has the upper hand. Zheng Lintoe, who came as a special envoy this time, is the person Li Yao values the most.

Zheng Lintoe, just before coming to the Northern Ming Dynasty, was named the leader of the council, also known as the prime minister, the highest administrative organ of the Li Dynasty of North Korea, the supreme leader of the parliamentary government, is a rank of Zhengyi, equivalent to the prime minister or prime minister of China.

Such an important minister was sent here just for one thing, that is, once Li Yao completely defeated Li Hongwei, for the sake of justification, he asked the Northern Ming Dynasty to make Li Jin the new king.

Zhu Qiyu at the banquet didn't care about North Korea's affairs, perhaps in his opinion, this was not a big deal, North Korea was just a small country, and he shouldn't pay attention to anything.

But Zheng Lintoe, who feels good about himself, doesn't think so. Li Yao had told him when he came that in order to get the support of Beiming, he could do some things to show their existence, such as the issue of mercenaries.
