In the history of the late Ming Dynasty, Jiangyin 81 Day (Note 1) is one of the most memorable events. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Eighty days with allegiance, the seventeenth dynasty of Taizu; 100,000 people died with one heart and left 300 miles of rivers and mountains in the Ming Dynasty. ”

In the tragic history, the people of Jiangyin resisted the invaders, and under the siege of 240,000 troops, they fought to the last moment, and no one surrendered.

In the history of the Chinese nation, this kind of thing is not uncommon, why is this happening?

That is, the people under the influence of Chinese culture have straight backbones and would rather bend than bend.

Later Manchu rulers feared this culture because it was able to forge a strong and inclusive national character.

Therefore, during the Manchu Qing Dynasty, there were Siku Quanshu, there was a literary prison, there was a closed country, and there was a Confucian culture that was emasculated in later generations.

Chen Xin had a lot of thoughts, but he didn't show anything.

sneered, "His hero, my enemy." Pull down the corpse wilderness. ”

"Yes" The guard immediately led the man forward, lassoed the corpse with a rope, and dragged the corpse far away on horseback.

Chen Xin did this, not because he was crazy, nor because he was dizzy, his heart was full of admiration for these people.

However, as a Chinese, Chen Xin must consider his country and nation.

The year after tomorrow, Yuan Chonghuan will kill Mao Wenlong, and as soon as Mao Wenlong dies, Dongjiang Town will be a plate of scattered sand.

Huang Taiji has no worries, he can lead people to bypass the Guanning defense line built with a lot of money, and invade the Ming Dynasty from the Mongolian region.

The hinterland of the Ming Dynasty will usher in massacres and looting again and again for decades.

In order for the Chinese people to have fewer deaths, it is necessary to completely shift the attention of Houjin to North Korea.

At the same time, we must not let North Korea quickly calm down, and we must let the North Korean people have the motivation to rise up and resist, and wholeheartedly fight to the end with the Kim State and drag down the Kim army.

Chen Shin did this to stir up hatred among the North Koreans against the Kim nation, and heroic stories can always inspire people, and tragic heroic stories can inspire everyone's anger.

Chen Xin watched several relatively young North Korean officials trying to suppress their angry expressions, and planned in his heart, "After the arrival of the army, according to the urine nature of the Jin army, it will definitely be slaughtered, these young people, who seem to be still hot-blooded, and are people who have personally experienced the incident, should be able to take advantage of it, and see if they can save these people when the time comes." ”

While thinking, he went up to help Shen Yiqian, "Shen Jie, don't be nervous, I can trust you, let's go into the city together." ”

Shen Yiqian immediately nodded and led the way in front.

Thinking about that Xiao Zhengyang, and then looking at Shen Yiqian, who looked like a dog, several officers under Chen Xin snorted coldly with disdain, and beat their horses to follow.

After entering the city, he first sent people to occupy a city gate and put into custody the Korean soldiers who did not need to be on duty in the city.

This is the most important thing, and these North Korean officials should not be unable to pull down just because they are now being submissive.

Chen Xin didn't look at the unsightly faces of a few younger officials, and went straight to the center of the city.

The banquet was arranged at the home of a gentry, but Chen Xin said that he needed to change his clothes first, and asked Shen Yiqian to take him to the official mansion in the center of the city.

Under the leadership of Shen Yiqian, he came to the Anzhou Metropolitan Protectorate, which was located in the east of the city center and originally belonged to the envoy Xiao Zhengyang.

First, he found the signing room, sealed all the account books, sat in the second hall, and took advantage of the time to boil water, Chen Xin asked the North Korean interpreter who had come here from the border with Chen Xin to ask questions.

"What kind of official position is this Anzhou Soldier and Horse Temperance Envoy, and Anzhou Metropolitan Protector Envoy?"

This interpreter and Chen Xin have been together for a long time, and there is no longer the trembling look at the beginning, at this time it is still the first month, and in the winter, he is still holding a folding fan, and he opened it with a snap and said, "My lord, these two official positions are about to start with the official system of the Korean state, and it is said that after the Li family won the throne that year, ・・・・・・"

Chen Xin knew that this guy was talking badly, so he opened his mouth and interrupted: "I'm going to appease the gentry in the city later, you make a long story short." ”

was interrupted, and the interpreter didn't dare to get angry, "Well, my lord, to put it simply, North Korea is divided into the central and local, and the local level of [Dao] is set up, which is equivalent to the province of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Seeing Chen Xin's sneering face, he immediately changed his words and said, "Of course, the size of the area cannot be compared, but it is just that the level is comparable." ”

Carefully looked at Chen Xin's face, saw that there was nothing abnormal, and fiddled with the folding fan and continued, "Under this Dao, there are Dadu Hufu, Duhufu, Mu, County, and County, these names look complicated, but they are all under the [Dao] and are managed in parallel. ”

Chen Xin was puzzled: "How can the Metropolitan Protectorate, the county and the county be managed in parallel?" ”

The interpreter smiled bitterly, "My lord, although the Dadu Protectorate, the Metropolitan Protectorate, the Mudan, the County, and the County are just outside the city and the surrounding towns, the level of the officials in charge is very different. North Korea is such a big place, but there are so many imperial relatives and scholars in the imperial examination, if you don't want to find a way to divide multiple ranks, you really can't promote officials. ”

Chen Xin understood, on a piece of land of almost the same size, to promote the rank of some of these places to facilitate the promotion and transfer of officials is just a fool of people. Shook his head, "Forget it, I'm not going to stay in North Korea for a long time, their official position has nothing to do with me, so I should listen to relieve my boredom." Then he motioned for the other party to continue.

"My lord, this Anzhou is one of the Metropolitan Protectorates, and the one in charge of the affairs of the Metropolitan Protectorate is the Envoy of the Metropolitan Protectorate, and the highest official position in charge of the army here is the Commander of the Anzhou Soldiers and Horses."

Suddenly, Chen Xin remembered the first battle in North Korea, that is, the time when the sea dog died in battle, there was a guy who said that he was the deputy chief soldier of Zheng Erpin, and now it seems that the official position of North Korea seems to be different from that of the Ming Dynasty, how can a deputy chief soldier appear? So I asked the question.

The translator thought for a while, and replied with a smile, "That Choi Zhengyuan, the deputy chief soldier of the second grade of North Korea's Pyongan Dao, in fact, his official position is the Kingdom of Korea, Pyongan Dao, Yizhou Battalion, and Defense Envoy, and he is an official from the second rank, but due to the defense of the border, he was falsely awarded the first rank and became the second rank, he said that he was the deputy chief soldier, and he should be afraid that the adults would not know what the defense envoy did, so he quoted the deputy chief soldier official position similar to him in the Ming Dynasty. ”

Chen Xin understood, and at this time, the people below came to report that the water was boiled, so Chen Xin stopped chatting and walked to the washing room.
