"I know this is just the beginning, anyway, it's a good start, the president has achieved his wish, mastered Li Shi, isn't that how the president planned it at the beginning?" Wang Qiuya said with a smile.
"That's Kim Neiguan's suggestion, I don't know how effective it will be! It's up to us to do what we do next! And it depends on how Li Liang dismantles the move. Wei Bao said: "Remember, I am not to kill Li Liang, but to intervene in North Korea step by step, control North Korea, and maximize the access to resources, instead of letting North Korea mess up." If North Korea is in chaos, it will not be good for me, nor will it be good for the Ming Dynasty or China. In the process of plundering resources and intervening forces, it is inevitable that conflicts will occur, conflicts will kill people, and a lot of resources will be consumed, so what I hope is to try not to conflict! It's hard to do, now you see? ”
President Wei thinks a lot, but he doesn't want war, in Wei Bao's view, war is just an auxiliary means, not his goal, he is not a murderer.
Whether from the perspective of human nature or from the perspective of economy, Wei Bao does not want to see dead people, how much food and wealth does an adult consume to become an adult? Once dead, how much productivity is reduced?
How many years does it take to become an adult again, and how much food does it take?
The consumption of materials is secondary, the main thing is time and population! In this era, the population is already small, and when materials are extremely scarce, it is even less likely that a large number of people will explode.
These are all aspects that President Wei attaches great importance to.
Wang Qiuya snorted thoughtfully, "The president must have a way." ”
Wei Bao smiled indifferently: "I'm not a fairy, I'm just crossing the river by feeling the stones, I hope everything goes well!" ”
Wei Bao has a preliminary plan, and he is not at a loss about the future, but there are a lot of uncertainties, which will often affect Wei Bao's confidence.
In general, after passing through the rebirth to the era of the Ming Dynasty, Wei Bao's confidence has almost exploded, compared to the modern era, there is a world of difference.
Maybe it's because the time of being a silk in modern times is too long, even if Wei Bao's confidence is skyrocketing now, he still can't catch up with the real heroes.
For example, Mao Wenlong, who rises on the flat ground, has a force on one side and a man on the other.
Another example is Zu Dashou and Wu Xiang in Liaoxi and Liaodong.
What Wei Bao knows, Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng and other rebels who don't know what they are doing now.
They either started from scratch and pulled up their own forces, or they developed on the basis of their predecessors and became the leaders and outstanding members of a faction.
In Wei Bao's opinion, each of them is very powerful.
Including generals such as Li Shi and Han Minglian, who had just become his domestic slaves, Wei Bao also felt that they were very powerful, anyway, if it was replaced by himself in modern times, in the face of bullying and suppression, would he dare to fight with his life?
Surely I don't dare.
Zhang Wan found out that Li Shi and Han Minglian's army had retreated, and already knew about the killing of Li Shoubai and Qi Yixian, and that their army was merged by Li Sui.
"Forget it, don't chase it! There are a lot of them during the day, and even if we are newly defeated, we will not take advantage of anything! I even thought that after Li Shi merged the army of Li Shoubai and Qi Yixian, he would fight again! It seems that either Li Shi is injured, or Li Shi is smart. Zhang Wan sighed, and then said: "The army retreated 50 miles and reorganized the camp. ”
The lieutenant general below agreed loudly.
After a victory, Zhang Wan didn't seem to have gained anything, and he himself suffered more than 2,000 casualties.
Soon, Zhang Wan figured out who helped Li Shi and Han Minglian, and sent someone to inform Li Liang of the detailed process of directly helping the rebels and fighting the rebels.
Li Liang and the military generals of the Manchu Dynasty were shocked, and they did not expect that this young envoy of the Ming Dynasty would directly send troops to intervene in the dispute between the Korean court and the rebels.
"What the hell is he trying to do? You say, what should we do now? Li Qi looked at the ministers angrily.
No one spoke, not even Li Liang's closest uncle and cousin, Queen Inyeol's father and others didn't know what to do.
"Speak, will you just stand? When the imperial court is in danger, do you have no effect at all? Li Qi stood up, he was a cowardly and weak character, and he was rarely so excited.
"Your Highness, let's wait and see what happens, right? Send people to protest against the Ming Dynasty's minister's interference in the internal affairs of our North Korea, and see what Wei Bao has to say. Jin Jin said.
Li Wei sighed: "Zhang Wan said that if it weren't for the intervention of this Ming Dynasty envoy, Li Shi and Han Minglian would have been captured that night, and in the end, they fell short, and Li Shi killed Li Shoubai and Qi Yixian, who had already agreed to act as internal responses!" It will be difficult to defeat Li Shi in the future. ”
Yes, if Wei Bao hadn't intervened, even if Li Shi and Han Minglian could escape once, they would still have to be killed by Li Shoubai and Qi Yixian in the end.
Now it is different, the army of Li Shoubai and Qi Yixian has merged with the army of Li Shi and Han Myung-lian, and is being reorganized in Seoul.
President Wei lived in the Seoul Palace!
That's right, President Wei did live in the Seoul Palace!
However, he only stayed for one night, and then moved out the next day, and that night was just to facilitate his agents from the General Administration of Statistics, agents from the North Korean station, and the president's guard to enter the palace to move things.
No matter what was moved, everything that was valuable and could be eaten was moved to Learzhan's huge mansion in Seoul.
President Wei stayed at the Seoul Royal Palace for one night, and he didn't do anything to the women in the palace.
The important concubines and queens, as well as the princesses, had already fled to Gongzhou with Li Liang before, but there were still many women who didn't have time to leave.
President Wei is not a particularly lustful person, and after a few days of doing it with Jin Shanggong and Wang Qiuya, it is time to rest, so he just slept for one night in the palace where the king of North Korea lived.
Moving away so quickly, Wei Bao also took into account the public opinion of North Korea, and didn't want the people of North Korea to be too hostile to him.
It's a temptation, a very domineering temptation.
I have stayed, but only for one night, to show you that I am above your king!
In addition, if you move out immediately, this matter is not a time to go, it can only be a conversation after dinner, and it is in the past tense. It will not cause much psychological harm to the North Korean people.
Wei Bao soon received a letter of protest from Li Liang, but he did not react much, and asked Jin Neiguan to receive the other party and send the other party's kind words back.
As for whether Li Liang will send someone to the Ming court to denounce him, Wei Bao is not worried at all!
If you get nothing in North Korea and can't succeed, you will definitely not be able to do Jiannu, and if you can't do Jiannu, you will definitely not be able to hold Liaonan, and if you can't hold Liaonan, you will be beaten back to its original form, and you can only retreat in Weijiazhuang.
In that case, what is the attitude of the Ming court towards itself, and what is important? Anyway, Weijiazhuang has already taken shape, and it is estimated that he can only develop to the pirate route, as long as the land cannot break Weijiazhuang, he has a certain strength at sea, looting everywhere, and there is no need to worry about starvation.
Of course, this kind of life is by no means what Wei Bao yearns for.
If the development in North Korea is very good, such as the current situation, Wei Bao believes that Li Liang will not dare to go to the Ming court to complain easily.
Because, on the one hand, the Ming court is far away, and he is close, and southern Liaoning is only a stone's throw away from North Korea!
On the other hand, the Ming court may not be able to do it, he has already shown his hands-on ability, and if he is not afraid of death, he will go and sue! Wha.
"I heard that you only punished and killed the family members of individual ministers before? Why not go all-in? Wei Bao asked Li Shi.
"President! First, I oppose Li Ju because he is unfair to me, and I do not want to be the enemy of the whole of North Korea. Second, even if I have a disagreement with a large number of Westerner Party ministers such as Jin Jin and Li Gui, if I kill people and raid my family, I am afraid that I will not be able to restrain my subordinates, and the whole of Seoul may fall into a military disaster. Li Shi replied. He has already changed his name to the president according to the names of Lin Wenbiao and Tan Maniac.
Wei Bao nodded: "It's not wrong for you to do this, it shows that you are not greedy!" People should be greedy, but not too greedy, and there must be a bottom line! Plus, it's good that you know what you can and can't control! ”
"Thank you President for the compliment." Li Shi said hurriedly.
"What would you do if the people under your command could be like my guards, strictly abide by military discipline, order to raid the house, and only move the one who received the order, and never take more? Is it possible to raid the house with confidence? Wei Bao asked.
"Yes! I will raid all the ministers' houses, gather together the goods and food, so that more people will serve me! We're going to get even bigger! At most, I will keep the homes of a few ministers who have a good name! Li Shi replied: "Of these two classes of ministers, one is counted as one, and none of them is a good thing, even the Westerners are also a bunch of corrupt officials." ”
Li Shi thought the same as he thought, Wei Bao nodded.
"President, this is going to be done by people, right? Hoarded enough wealth, grain and grass, Li Liang and the princes and ministers couldn't help but give in! Li Shi said a little excitedly.
Wei Bao said indifferently: "Wait a few more days!" Wait until the North Korean soldiers are basically reformed! If all of this is done by my presidential guard, all Han Chinese go to raid the homes of North Koreans, and it will hurt the feelings of all North Korean people. ”
Li Shi bowed deeply: "President, I understand. ’
Now Li Shi admires President Wei with sincerity, at first it was just because President Wei saved his life, and he was still a little unwilling.
But after President Wei showed his strong strength, he was convinced, and more importantly, President Wei, who has strong strength, can keep a cool head at all times, do things in an orderly manner, and give people a handsome demeanor at a young age.
Thousands of troops are easy to get, and one will be hard to find! Hundreds of generals are easy to get, and a handsome one is hard to find!
Maybe Wei Bao was not a natural commander, but now in the eyes of Wei Bao's subordinates, Wei Bao is a peerless and extraordinary commander-level figure.
Responsible for the reorganization of the North Korean army, Lin Wenbiao and Tan Maniac were personally responsible, both politically and militarily transformed.
They were ordered to reorganize the North Korean army in the western suburbs of Seoul, and they also brought more than a dozen temporary agents of the Statistics Bureau to serve as instructors.
When they first arrived, these North Korean soldiers also talked to them and asked them to make speeches and so on.
North Koreans are very defensive, especially these ordinary North Korean soldiers.
They said that they were soldiers, but in fact, even the lives of those mercenary border soldiers in the western part of the Ming Dynasty were not as good.
Belong to the slave of the slaves, the bottom of the bottom, the lowest group of people.
After the first day of training, when Lin Wenbiao and Madman Tan searched the bottom to check the situation, they saw that the soldiers were playing dice betting and gambling, and some were abusing and scuffling with each other, and they ignored them when they saw them.
It's clear that this is a bunch of soldiers, and it's very difficult to adapt such a unit, what do you do?
It may be said that the soldier oil is not allowed to be taken, in modern terms, it is very earthy and low.
It's not that they deliberately go against whom, they don't have the guts, it's that they're used to this way of life.
Not to mention the low-level soldiers, even the generals of North Korea used to live this kind of life, the army is not like the army, and the farmers are not like farmers.
Lin Wenbiao's people mainly do political work, and Lin Wenbiao found that many soldiers who didn't play dice were lying on the bed, humming and asking. It turns out that before the adaptation, there were already many people with injuries.
Lin Wenbiao cared about these soldiers one by one, and after asking, he learned that most of these injuries were caused in many battles, but they were beaten by generals and leaders at each level.
Compared with gambling, corporal punishment of soldiers is also very serious.
This kind of thing has formed a vicious circle, the feudal army not only gambles and beats people, is very mean and vicious to the soldiers, but also wantonly deducts the soldiers' salaries, so that everyone has no money to get a haircut and bathe, and there is not enough to eat.
Lin Wenbiao and a group of instructors talked with everyone and exchanged hearts, and soon they naturally gained the North Korean soldiers' new understanding of the Heaven and Earth Society and President Wei.
The training of the Heaven and Earth Society is very formal and hard, and the days are no longer as easy as they used to be, but they feel warm and different!
As far as the senses of the Storming Heaven Society care about the soldiers, they believe that it will be different in the future.
Moreover, on the first day, all the rewards promised by President Wei were in place, and no one was left behind.
Problems were found and solved, since there was a deduction of military salaries, and the soldiers' food was seriously insufficient, then the application began to recruit and improve the food, and all kinds of sanitary products were quickly in place, and the soldiers got haircuts, bathed and washed clothes, and soon the whole army took on a new look.
Based on their past experience, Lin Wenbiao and Madman Tan demanded the establishment of a soldiers' committee, the practice of economic democracy, and the thorough blocking of the channels of corruption and malpractice.
After three days, gambling was gone, and the wounded soldiers were almost nourished.
Even if there are still injured soldiers, they will completely return to their hearts, because the instructors will care about them, so that they can reduce the amount of training and focus on recuperation.
There were even people who said they didn't want to engage in military life, but they were allowed to go down to farming, and the Heaven and Earth Society arranged fields for them in the Seoul area.
President Wei was not worried about the lack of soldiers, and he had no intention of letting many Koreans join the army.
After these things spread out, a large number of soldiers who were lost from the original Li Shi's army, as well as those who originally belonged to the Great Northern faction, with the Guanghai Jun Li Hui being ousted by Li Liang, and the loss of the original imperial court soldiers and horses, and many people who had been rogues, and even those who were doing rogues in the nearby mountains, also came to take refuge.
For a time, more than 100,000 people gathered!
After Wei Bao heard Lin Wenbiao's report, he couldn't help but sweat, he didn't expect the North Koreans to be so easy to manage? After thinking about it, I understood, "It's not that these North Koreans are attached to me, I've just arrived, and they don't know anything about me, but they want a better life, and it's our reputation that makes it." ”
Lin Wenbiao nodded, and then asked, "President, do we need so many people?" ”
"Those who have experience in the army are given priority to retention, and then pay more attention to the quality of observation in the whole training process, and observe their attitudes when they are literate and teach them to know some of the most basic and commonly used Chinese characters, so as to return to the Han nationality or not, and whether to heaven and earth as the standard! Leave 50,000 people behind! Wei Bao said to Lin Wenbiao.
Lin Wenbiao gave a standard military salute, and then went down to do something.
Li Shi couldn't help but be surprised when he knew that in just a few days, the reorganized army had changed from more than 10,000 people in his hands to more than 100,000 people rushing to join the treasure army.
Han Minglian and some North Korean generals who were undergoing transformation were also very surprised, and they admired President Wei, the Tiandihui, and the Baojun even more!
They don't dare to ask for rewards or anything now, they just hope to stay in the Heaven and Earth Society, and they can have their own position, as for whether they will still be arranged to be generals in the army in the future, they have nothing to ask for, everything is subject to the arrangement of the Heaven and Earth Society.
This armed force of more than 50,000 people belongs to the nature of a garrison army, and the supreme person in charge was discussed by Tan Maniac and Lin Wenbiao together, and approved by the president himself.
One of the battalion commanders of the original escort team was called Wan Daxi, Daxizi.
Da Xizi also came out of the old Linzi Liuzi Gang, he is honest and reliable, and President Wei has also had a lot of contact with him.
Most of the members of this North Korean garrison will remain in North Korea, and the elite personnel will be sent to southern Liaonan, and the rest will be assigned to police agencies, police stations, and police stations in Gyeonggi Province and Seoul.
Although there is no banner in North Korea yet, President Wei has already made people start to control the security of the entire Gyeonggi Province!
There was no list of An Min, and Li Ying, the king of Xing'an, who was supported by Li Shi, was not established.
President Wei did not intend to get two governments to fight against Li Kun, and did not want to intensify the contradictions so as to cause a full-scale war.
Gyeonggi Province is the center of the eight provinces of Korea and is the location of the capital Seoul, and its status in North Korea is self-evident.
After the police force of tens of thousands of people began to operate, President Wei began to let people conduct census on the one hand, register for household registration, and do ID cards, and on the other hand, began to check all the big families and big landlords in Gyeonggi Province, and raided their homes!
Wei Bao is not targeting small and medium-sized landlords here, feudal society, inseparable from landlords, without landlords will be chaotic!
Wei Bao knows this better than anyone else, and understands it, because Wei Bao is now a super landlord himself.
Getting rid of the big landlords will reap a lot of wealth and grain, and naturally, there will be a large power vacuum, and a large number of small and medium-sized landlords will come up.
And in the process of coming up to the top, these small and medium-sized landlords will naturally want to seek more interests and more power, and if they want to seek these, they have to 'dedicate'! Gotta 'contribute'!
We have to let Baojun, let Heaven and Earth Society, and let President Wei see them.
In this process, a large amount of wealth and grain will flow into the Tiandihui and into the hands of President Wei.
The entire Gyeonggi Province is being dominated by North Korea's newly emerged police force, and under the supervision of the President's Guard, earth-shaking upheavals are taking place calmly and obscurely.
Boatload by ship of grain, ship by ship of property, a steady stream of delivery to Jianghua Island, and then by the fleet organized by the coast guard, a steady stream of delivery to southern Liaoning!
At the same time, the emerging forces in Gyeonggi Province, led by President Wei, are reaching out to Hwanghae-do, to Pyongyang, second only to Seoul!
Tens of thousands of servants of the great nobles were liberated at the hands of President Wei and received the newly allocated land.
Most of the land that appeared in these raids was sold to small and medium-sized landlords who strongly demanded the upper ranks.
Of course, it is the Heaven and Earth Society that gets the most industry and land!
Tiandihui and President Wei led the change, they are naturally the biggest winners.
No matter what the faction, the landlords actually did not have a faction, they wanted land, tenant farmers, and wealth, and this demand was very strong, and it was a very vital process, which was the process of overthrowing the slave system and completely transforming the feudal system!
This is no less than a revolution.
But in the course of this crazy revolution, President Wei barely killed anyone.
The servants of the big landlord's family were freed, and the family members of the big landlord were thrown into prison one after another and were not killed.
These people are also in the tens of thousands.
Li Shi watched Baojun and the North Korean police force methodically check all the land and property, methodically raid the homes of large landlords one by one, and the soldiers treated huge wealth like ordinary firewood, no one smashed and robbed, everything was so orderly, and he couldn't help but be amazed.
"General Tan, I still don't know how to express my admiration for the treasure army! You can adapt us Koreans so well! What a admiration! You are not robbing something, but you are taking your own things, and even the people who have been raided have not resisted. Li Shi said to Madman Tan.
Madman Tan smiled slightly, "Let me correct you, you are now also a member of the Baojun, a member of the Heaven and Earth Society, you are the president's person, have you forgotten?" Plus, we're not grabbing things, we're allocating resources! The distribution of resources forcibly seized by corrupt officials is to allow more ordinary North Koreans to live! Why didn't anyone resist? Why do the people and soldiers of North Korea love us? Because they are not blind, they see that our heaven and earth will love the people and the soldiers, and they are willing! ”
Madman Tan is not an artist, not a literati, a real rough man, a martial artist, and a general.
But Madman Tan said something very politically literate.
Li Shi, Han Minglian and others were even more convinced when they heard what Madman Tan said.
Han Minglian couldn't help but nod and said, "Willingly!" Not bad! We're all willing! ”
In less than a month, Gyeonggi Province and Hwanghae Province are undergoing earth-shaking changes, and Mao Wenlong, who is confronting Jiannu, does not know.
Li Liang, who is in Gongju, also just knew.
The combined economy of Gyeonggi Province and Hwanghae-do Province is heavier than the other six provinces of North Korea! It's even bigger!
At this moment, Li Ju couldn't sit still, and the ministers of the two classes who were raided and their families were imprisoned couldn't sit still either!
Regardless of their faction, they were fully united at this time, unprecedentedly united, rally around Li Liang and the ministers of the Western People's Party, and unanimously demanded the gathering of troops and horses throughout Korea to fight a decisive battle against the rebels! Fight against Daming's Wei Bao!
Li Liang and the ministers of the two classes found that Wei Bao was far more terrible than Jiannu! Worse than Mao Wenlong! Worse than the Wokos!
It can even be said that in their hearts at this moment, the most terrifying thing in the world is Wei Bao! This boy from Daming!
"Your Highness! Please issue an order to the Ming envoys Wei Bao and Li Shi to be consulted! Li Yuanyi said on behalf of the two classes of ministers. He's the leader of the council!
Although Li Shi, Han Minglian and others are now only grassroots officials in the Tiandihui and Bao Army, in the eyes of the North Koreans, the armies of Gyeonggi Province and Hwanghae-do are still controlled by Li Shih and Han Minglian.
They couldn't have imagined, and they wouldn't believe, that the people of the Ming Dynasty, with only a few hundred people, would be able to control Gyeonggi Province and Hwanghae Province in just one month, and control the Korean army of 50,000 and the population of millions of Koreans!
The entire hall was silent, and everyone was waiting for Li Liang's answer.
In fact, today is the fifth time that such a pilgrimage meeting has been held!
For a whole day, the two classes of ministers of North Korea and Li Liang almost didn't eat or drink much, and they kept going on and on, and then they were even a bit like they were obsessed and refused to leave the yang and yin spirits.
Everyone knew very well what would happen if Li Ju gave the order to gather all the troops and forces of the six provinces of Korea to start a new round of Armageddon with the rebels, and it was very likely that 500,000 people, or even 600,000, 700,000, 800,000, 900,000 would die!
Or even millions of people!
How many people are there in North Korea?
It is highly likely that this will cause the death of a population more terrible than an earthquake, a pandemic, a flood, or a drought.
But these two classes of ministers can't stand it, no matter who is taken away from them, wealth, property, land, and family members are imprisoned, they will be desperate and angry, and this kind of anger in incomparable despair can only lead people to madness!
The court of Joseon was like a crazy beast at this time.
Li Liang is actually crazy himself, as the new king to power, he was not recognized by the Ming Dynasty, and he was still in a stage of unjustification at this time.
There are rebels raging inside, and the six roads he currently controls are full of homeless and hungry people, and there is also the threat of slave construction outside.
The court is also not very peaceful, although the ministers are united because of the sudden appearance of the Ming envoys, but this is only temporary, the Westerners are not dominant, and even if the Westerners are dominant, they will also face a major problem, that is, how to deal with Wei Bao and the rebels!
Li Liang only felt that his eyes were black, and the whole world was black!
