In fact, since the Ming Dynasty, North Korea has not been completely obedient to the Ming Dynasty in Chen Mu's impression.

Goryeo has not been obedient to the Central Plains since ancient times, it is nothing more than a cycle between being beaten up and being full of money, and the real obedience only existed in just a few decades after Wanli's aid to the Dynasty, and later it became a reminiscence and remembrance of the old Ming.

The Ming Dynasty and the later lighthouse states were very similar in some ways, and the glamorous culture spread to the surrounding countries, making people feel that it was good everywhere.

But when the Korean officials entered the Ming Dynasty and found that the officials of the Ming Dynasty did not succeed in asking for bribes, they were particularly mean and rude, in fact, the Ming Dynasty people did not know the etiquette?

Not exactly.

The lighthouse of any era will make people ignore the shadows under the tower because of the dazzling lights, but outsiders have suffered a dimensionality reduction blow, and they are too far away to think that the other party is good anywhere, in fact, who can be a little wrong.

For North Korea, the Ming Dynasty is not so good or so bad, but the national strength is strong, but the weak in the contest can only touch the elephant blindly in inferiority, and make up the perfect picture in the brain.

Yi Sunsin's hunting operation failed, because when he stepped into the hunting area of the neighboring tribes, the two sides drew their bows and faced each other and walked out of the snowy forest, and dozens of Beishan Jurchens, including those who rode deer and wielded spears, and those who bent bows on foot, all eyed these uninvited Korean soldiers who stepped into the forest.

Words are useless, and actions cannot reassure the other party, in the white expanse, Yi Sunsin drew his bow full, looking at these yellow-faced and black-haired Jurchens who were shrouded in thick leather jackets and showing hostility, slightly opening their mouths and panting for air, the hot air was like Bai Lian, and steam rose above their heads.

If it weren't for the wiping of his forehead, he would have been able to sweat even in the weather when Sipol was dripping with ice in October.

Yi Sunsin had only about 20 Korean people, and although they dressed like soldiers and behaved like soldiers, Yi Sunsin knew very well that they were not soldiers, even if they were inferior to the soldiers under Chen Bazhi, and if the number of enemies was equal, they would be evenly matched.

After all, these Beishan Jurchens don't look like soldiers, they are more like hunters gathered, they don't even have armor and long knives, only spears, bows and arrows and short knives, obviously a group of hunters.

But the problem is that the number is not equal, and they have to face fifty or sixty Beishan Jurchens, and they seem to be fierce enough.

His men were likely to be scattered by a charge from a deer-mounted spear-wielding stranger.

You can't fight, and it's hard to escape.

The pine forests that were not dense could not hinder the movement of the deer cavalry, but the deep snow could prevent them from running, and the sled dogs with their teeth and barking low, no matter what they chose, there seemed to be no way back.

Li Sunchen didn't even dare to blink his eyes, slowly retracted his full bow, raised his right hand and said to his subordinates: "Deer, hit the deer, put it in front!" Slow down! ”

He really has no choice, he can't fight, he can't retreat, and he can't even negotiate words.

A few cowering North Korean soldiers put the deer and rabbits they had hunted hard in front of them, and Yi Sunsin couldn't let out his anger in his heart, and shouted in a low voice: "Just let you release the deer, what do you do with the rabbits, let them go, don't pick them up!" ”

He almost uttered words from between his teeth, but he obviously saw that the expression of the person on the other side who seemed to be the leader softened slightly, and hurriedly said: "Slowly retreat, follow the way you came, retreat slowly, don't run anyone, my highness." ”

Seeing the uninvited guests put down their prey and slowly retreated, the Beishan Jurchens were actually scratching their heads.

They got the news when the Korean soldiers entered the pine forest, and then the tribal leader gathered half of his men and rushed over, at first thinking that the neighboring tribes had entered their pine forest without permission, only to find these faces that they had never seen before.

The tribal leader shouted a few times in front of the battle, asking them what they meant, but apparently the Koreans did not understand; Yi Sunsin shouted a few times in front of the battle, but the Beishan Jurchen did not understand.

However, the communication of behavior is still very smooth, this side raises the spear, the bow is full, and the other side puts down the prey and starts to retreat, which is a good result.

They were Chukchi people, a tribe that assimilated part of the Eskimos, and in this era they were called Beishan Jurchens by the Ming people, and settled here after a long migration, living by sea hunting by the Anskimos and hunting by the Chukotka people.

Due to the long and long journey of migration, although they belong to the Beishan Jurchen branch, they are clearly different from most of the Beishan Jurchens in terms of language, and even if they communicate with another tribe of the Beishan Jurchens, it will be very difficult.

When the Ming Dynasty became the ancestors, they were ruled by the Nurgan Dusi, but the era of the Nurgan Dusi is undoubtedly very far away from the present, and the Beishan Jurchens who have seen the Ming people have long passed away, even if they search for all the tribes, there may not be a few who know what the Ming Dynasty is like.

However, in the cold and snow, it doesn't matter if you can reason with words, it's important to let others put down their prey.

"Follow them and see where they come from, their bows are good, and I use deer." The Jurchen leader of Beishan pointed his spear at the deer handed over by Yi Sunsin lying on the ground, and said, "Change the bow." ”

In any case, Yi Sunsin, who escaped alive, finally breathed a sigh of relief and led his troops to run wildly, not daring to relax his vigilance.

Every once in a while, dogs barked in the pine forest, and the sound kept a certain distance from them, and the Jurchens followed them.

"Go and tell General Ma Jin that the Jurchens follow us, and I will take them to the east coast of the camp, and I hope that the general will transfer Korean soldiers to help me."

Knowing whether he was the enemy or the enemy, Yi Sunsin could not bring these Jurchens back to the shore.

Ma Jin's subordinates were towing ships on the coast, making the big ships closer to the coast, and counting the remaining baggage, Ma Jin was quite optimistic.

Their food and water were enough to eat for two months, and the fleet carrying the grain should have passed four thousand miles by now, and there was no need to take his crooked path, and it would not be long before the grain would be brought here, and it might even be very close.

Their mission had been accomplished, and at least now they knew that there really was a strait here, with America on the other side, and there was not much risk along the way except for the cold.

In the days that followed, Ma Jin could imagine that he would draw charts and map the surrounding area with his subordinates while he set up a sentry post on the shore and drank soju to survive the long winter for more than half a year.

When the strait thaws next year, the follow-up forces will also complete the reorganization and study, and the expeditionary force will arrive here and flock to the mainland on the other side of the strait.

Ma Jin was not surprised to receive the news of Li Sunsin, on the contrary, he immediately ordered the banner army under his command to lead the horses and hold the guns, and cheered up with the Beishan Jurchens recruited along the way.

He has been accustomed to the way of communication belonging to the Ming army under the severe cold of Sipol, bringing enough deterrent men and horses, and his words have never been favorable, and sometimes the tense situation only requires the horse team to plan a hundred and ten steps, make a posture of preparing to charge, and release the guns into the sky after forming a formation.

After doing this, no matter which savage department it is, they can reach a consensus with the Ming army and become hospitable.

Bartering should be bartered, and gifts should be given to each other, and some foreigners can be recruited as guides and armies.

The world is lucky!
