North Korea, Port of Busan.

The Port of Busan is the largest port in southeastern Korea, and during the dynastic period, it was already the second largest city on the Korean Peninsula, second only to the capital in terms of population and economy. During the Age of Discovery, the Port of Busan was the only port in the Kingdom of Korea that was open to the outside world, and the only city where foreigners could settle down for a long time.

According to the agreement secretly reached between the Tiger Army and the Korean royal family, the Tiger Army Army can be stationed in the port of Busan for a long time, and the Tiger Army Navy can use all the ports of the Port of Busan free of charge. At the same time, the logistics agencies at all levels of the Tiger Ben Army can carry out various infrastructure construction around the port of Busan, including the construction of docks, warehouses, military camps, etc.

Basically, except for the ownership that still belongs to North Korea, the right to use the port of Busan has been vested in the Tiger Army. Every day, a large number of ships travel between the port of Busan and various ports in the area controlled by the Tiger Ben Army, bringing in large quantities of supplies and soldiers, and taking away large quantities of raw resources such as timber and iron ore.

Since the end of last year, martial law has been imposed in many areas around the port of Busan, and there are sentries of the Korean Janissaries at all major intersections. In some special areas, there are even sentinels of the Tiger Army. The closer you are to the port, the higher the level of alert. It is impossible for irrelevant idle people to get close to the port.

The local residents of Busan Port can occasionally appear day and night, and there are a large number of Korean Janissaries and Tiger Ben troops coming and going. They either marched all the way from the northern part of Korea to the port of Busan, or they disembarked from large ships. Their number is quite large. With the continuous arrival of troops, the military camp near the port of Busan is also constantly expanding.

Those who arrived with the Tiger Army or the Korean Praetorian Guard also had a large amount of supplies. Just unloading those supplies took a lot of time and used a lot of dock workers. Subsequently, a large number of Mongol cavalry, moving south from northern Korea, joined the military camp near the port of Busan. The arrival of a large number of war horses has made the port of Busan more lively.

Many people are saying behind their backs that the port of Busan has gathered so many troops, and there must be a big move. Moreover, this big move is mostly related to the Japanese on the other side of the sea. They optimistically estimated that this time the Tiger Army was going to take action against the Japanese. Koreans and Japanese have always been enemies. The vast majority of Koreans are eager for all the Japanese to die.

Because every time the Japanese became strong and expanded outward, it was definitely the Koreans who suffered first. During the Tang Dynasty, the Japanese army invaded Korea. Forty years ago, the Japanese army invaded Korea. All kinds of old and new hatreds are mixed together, and the hatred of the Koreans towards the Japanese has become even more profound.

In fact, the North Koreans' speculation is indeed not wrong. The troops of the 1st Expeditionary Corps of the Tiger Ben Army were indeed assembled one after another at the port of Busan. The purpose of their assembly was indeed to attack Japan. Actually, it's no secret. The Tiger Army didn't think to ask for this news either. After all, the Tiger Army was stationed in the port of Busan, and there was no other possibility than to target the Japanese.

Around Ulsan Rock near the port of Busan, the 1st Expeditionary Corps set up a large camp to provide a spacious enough place for the various troops to arrive. According to the landing plan drawn up by Zhang Zhun, the first wave of landing operations will not be carried out until August at the earliest. In other words, they will be stationed here for at least half a year.

Lu Xiangsheng's big tent of the Chinese army was in the middle of the camp. Every day, Lu Xiangsheng was in his camp tent, carefully studying every detail of the landing operation, and imagining as much as possible all possible situations. Landing operations, for him, were completely unfamiliar. He had never been exposed to such a battle before. I haven't even heard of it. For this reason, he had to be cautious, and then cautious.

In the entire Tiger Ben Army system, and even, in the whole world at that time, it was estimated that Zhang Zhun was the only person who had a comprehensive understanding of the landing operation. Apart from him, there is no one else who can systematically organize a large-scale landing operation. The work that Lu Xiangsheng has to do now is to refine them one by one according to the outline prescribed by Zhang Zhun.

Even so, Lu Xiangsheng felt a lot of pressure. There are too many differences between the various aspects involved in landing operations and the battles on land. Among them, the coordination with the navy alone is enough to give Lu Xiangsheng a headache. After diving headlong into the landing operation, Lu Xiangsheng only had one feeling, that is: complicated, really too complicated.

Fortunately, he Lu Xiangsheng happened to be in his thirties, and when he was young and strong, he had abundant jīng power and a flexible brain enough to delve into all aspects of landing operations. If he is ten years older, Lu Xiangsheng may feel that he can't bear it. He tried to organize a xiao-type exercise, but the result was more tiring than a real battle.

Of course, while Lu Xiangsheng felt deep pressure, he also felt deeply honored. He never imagined that one day he would command the war against Japan. However, when this order was given, Lu Xiangsheng was happy from the bottom of his heart and accepted the task without thinking. It must be admitted that Lu Xiangsheng is definitely not a war maniac, nor does he have the luxury of hoping to achieve glory and wealth through his military exploits. However, in the war against Japan, Lu Xiangsheng was duty-bound.

Like the vast majority of scholars, Lu Xiangsheng has an endless love for his country. He is eager to kill any enemy who dares to invade his country. This was the case with the previous Tartars. The same is true of the Wakos. Now that the Tartars have been exterminated, it's the turn of the Wakos. Well, in Lu Xiangsheng's codex, there has never been such a title as the Japanese, only the words "倭寇" or "倭人".

When the Japanese invaders were raging, Lu Xiangsheng had not yet been born. However, this did not prevent him from learning about the crimes of the Wakos. Moreover, because of Confucianism, Lu Xiangsheng naturally filtered out all the special factors in the Japanese Confucianism. For him, the ravages of the Japanese and the crimes committed by the Japanese were the fault of the Japanese. If you are wrong, you will be punished, the most severe.

When he received the task from Zhang Zhun, Lu Xiangsheng settled down, and he must work hard, go all out, and complete the task victoriously. Even if you give your own life, you will not hesitate to do it. He must make the Japanese regret their original crimes, he must let the Japanese repay their debts with blood, and he must let the Japanese see the majesty of the Celestial Empire. Those who offend me will be punished even if they are far away. Lu Xiangsheng never dared to forget this sentence.

In fact, Lu Xiangsheng is not the most excited one. Around the port of Busan, the most excited person is Li Jue. If Lu Xiangsheng's excitement is suppressed in the depths of his heart, then Li Jue's excitement is completely released. The Korean Janissaries under his command were trained by him to the point of jumping with only one purpose, that is, to teach the Japanese a hard lesson.

In the war forty years ago, it was, of course, not the Myeong, but the Korean kingdom that suffered the most. In that year, after the Japanese army landed on a large scale, they quickly went north, and in a short period of time, they occupied most of the territory of Korea. The king of Joseon was also forced to flee to the other side of the Yalu River and entered the territory of the Ming Kingdom.

Busan was the first city to fall when the Japanese army attacked. In the ensuing war, the port of Busan remained under the control of the Japanese army. It was not until later that the Ming army was dispatched in a big way, and the Ming naval division was also dispatched, advancing by sea and land, and after a series of fierce battles, all the Japanese troops were expelled, and Busan returned to the hands of the Koreans.

Of course, the North Koreans will not easily forget this humiliating history. Even the most cowardly members of the Joseon royal family dreamed of killing the Japanese and avenging the death of the Koreans. It's just that the strength of the DPRK itself is indeed relatively weak, and it has no chance of revenge at all. Thankfully, now, the opportunity has come.

Now, under the guidance of the Tiger Army, the Korean army also has the opportunity to attack the Japanese mainland. The North Koreans, who have always been passively beaten, finally have a chance to fight back. This incident not only made Li Jue feel honored, but also the king of Joseon, Li Zong, was also deeply honored. To this end, he has come to the port of Busan several times to comfort the North Koreans' own army.

Expanding the territory is something that every ruler deeply desires. If the Korean army, following the Tiger Ben army, successfully conquered Japan. Then, he, King Li Zong, will leave a big mark in history. Perhaps, he will become the greatest emperor in the history of Joseon, even more so than Yi Sung-gye.

By the beginning of March, the troops of the First Expeditionary Corps had basically assembled at the port of Busan. Different units have different places of stationing and training. Usually it is a separate training. When necessary, joint exercises will be organized. Every two months, an exercise is also organized.

According to Zhang Zhun's arrangement, under the command of the First Expeditionary Corps, there were Li Yang's artillery battalion, Zhang Lingyun's Pinzi battalion, and Li Jue's Korean Janissary Army. Later, in order to strengthen the offensive force, the yù battalion and the zhenzi battalion were transferred successively. In addition, a large number of Mongolian cavalry also began to assemble towards the port of Busan.

The artillery battalion commanded by Li Yang is already fighting on Sado Island. The original artillery battalion, with only 25mén field guns, was relatively weak in strength. After being incorporated into the 1st Expeditionary Corps, the number of field guns in the artillery battalion increased to 125 mén, and the firepower was greatly enhanced. To increase the movement of field artillery, the artillery battalion was also equipped with more war horses.

The total strength of the three battalions of the Pinzi Battalion, the Yùzi Battalion, and the Zhenzi Battalion has reached nearly 5,000 people. In future battles, they will be the main force of land warfare. In order to meet the needs of the expeditionary corps, the establishment of these three battalions has been changed to a certain extent. The main thing is to add weapons such as flying thunder cannons and mines.

Within the First Expeditionary Corps, the largest number of personnel is probably the Mongol cavalry. The Korean Praetorian Guard led by Li Jue has a strength of about 12ooo people. And the Mongol cavalry of the three tribes, all combined, passed 18ooo people. Each cavalryman is equipped with three war horses, and when he acts, he is naturally mighty and dangdang.

By the beginning of March, the total strength of the First Expeditionary Corps in the vicinity of the port of Pusan had exceeded 40,000. The number of war horses exceeded 60,000. Every day, the forage consumed by war horses alone is a huge number. Fortunately, the Tiger Ben Army has never been short of food, and they are not afraid that they will not be able to afford it. Coupled with a large number of logistics personnel and logistics ships, the Port of Busan is unprecedentedly lively.

Early in the morning of the 10th day of the third month, before the sun rises, the sea around the port of Busan begins to boil. A large number of soldiers of the Tiger Army, as well as soldiers of the Korean Janissaries, all jumped into the water with their upper bodies naked and began to practice water xìng. Looking at it from a distance, it looks like a group of dumplings, constantly fluttering in 1ang flowers.

On the shore, too, a large number of soldiers were busy. Some of the soldiers, locked in wooden cages, were pushed by their companions and rotated. The purpose of this is, of course, to enhance the resistance to vertigo. Basically, after fifty laps, you can still stand firm, and you can still distinguish the direction, even if you are barely qualified.

There are also a lot of people practicing handstands. On the training ground, on every wall, there were a large number of soldiers, with their feet up, their heads down, their hands on the ground, motionless. It is said that this kind of handstand can be practiced more times and can effectively prevent seasickness.

In addition to these main exercises to prevent dizziness, other exercises such as squats, frog jumps, hanging horizontal bars, and abdominal wraps are also carried out by a large number of soldiers. There were also a large number of soldiers, lying next to the pool, practicing the ability to hold their breath. On the contrary, there are very few people who practice combat skills.

In fact, all the members of the First Expeditionary Corps were veterans, and they had been in the army for at least one year. At this time, the skill of killing the enemy has reached a bottleneck, and there is no way to greatly improve it. More importantly, it is necessary to make breakthroughs in the basic quality of people. In the fierce battlefield, as long as you swing your usual skills fifty percent, it is considered very good.

"Hey!"

"Brothers!"

"Keep it all up!"

Zhang Lingyun shouted loudly.

He is also naked 1uo upper body, constantly fluttering and rolling in the seawater. The bronzed skin on his body is almost water-free. The water droplets on the skin and can't stay at all. As soon as he stood up from the sea, the droplets would keep rolling downward, and there would be no drop left. There are many officers like Zhang Lingyun.

A group of people kept splashing and rolling in the seawater, splashing a large number of 1ang flowers. The sea seemed to be secretly competing with them, and bursts of sea water kept surging towards them, one after another. I don't know where a few big yellow croakers came out, and they were suddenly chased by a group of soldiers like wolves, and suddenly there was a series of 1ang flowers.
