Chapter 454: Joseon Dynasty Meeting (Subscription Requested)
Following.
When Mo Xiaobai and the three of them woke up from their sleep, they just wanted to ask when the Korean court meeting would start, when they heard the palace attendant apologize: "Yesterday, the king and several ministers rested late, the court meeting has not yet started, and the slaves and maids have prepared pastries, can the admiral eat them?" ”
Didn't get up?
Hearing this, Mo Xiaobai looked at the sky outside, and it was at least seven o'clock when it was bright.
It's all come to this point, and you can't get up?
Mo Xiaobai shook his head and took the two of them to breakfast. When the three of them came back after eating, someone on the North Korean side finally woke up.
It was not the king of Joseon who woke up, but Prime Minister Yoo Sung-ryong.
"Prime Minister Liu, it seems that your country is not as dire as you said in your letter to the country." Mo Xiaobai joked, pointed in the direction of the dormitory and said, "Look at your monarch, you should have had a good time last night?" ”
"Admiral, don't laugh at me for waiting." Liu Chenglong's old face was wrinkled, and he said: "My king is already changing his clothes, and he will hold a court meeting later." ”
"Oh, what do you mean by the prime minister coming over now?"
"Naturally, I have something important to discuss with the Admiral."
Liu Chenglong replied, and then sighed bitterly: "The admiral taught my Marshal of Chaojin yesterday, although he is indeed wrong, but what you did made the king and many ministers lose face. They will not give up so easily at today's meeting, and there will definitely be a dispute. ”
"So you're going to tell me so I don't have to fight?"
Mo Xiaobai asked with a smile, and shook his right index finger: "What I want to tell you is that Jin Mingyuan is not at fault, but guilty, and there is no need to argue about this." In addition, this battle is for us to help you fight the Japanese people, and our Ming Dynasty has no benefit except for the empty consumption of soldiers and horses, so I am not interested in arguing with them, just do it, if not, I will withdraw immediately. ”
"Of course, I remember that you have worked hard for the country, and North Korea is a vassal of my Celestial Empire, I will not mention excessive things, I will only say some things that you can do and must do."
"That's good, that's good." Liu Chenglong didn't have the courage to bargain with Mo Xiaobai, he was already overjoyed to hear him say this, what he was most afraid of was what Mo Xiaobai had for North Korea.
Because judging from yesterday's performance, the temper of this Ming Admiral is completely worse than that of the Liaodong generals.
As the two reached a preliminary consensus, the belated king of Joseon was finally ready to go to court.
Mo Xiaobai, as the Admiral of the Ming Dynasty, is the protagonist of this court meeting.
When Mo Xiaobai and Liu Chenglong walked into the government hall together, the king of Joseon seemed to know that his hangover was very bad, so he didn't say anything else, and asked directly: "Since the admiral has come to Yizhou, I don't know when the heavenly soldiers will be able to go out to help my vassal country regain the country?" ”
"Your Majesty, my Ming soldiers and horses are now gathering at Zhenjiang Fort, and they will be able to cross the river to participate in the battle in more than a month." Mo Xiaobai groaned, and then his voice changed: "But as far as I can see from Admiral Ben's entry into the court, even if our army enters the court at this time, I am afraid that it will not be able to fight." ”
"Your Excellency, it can't be that you're afraid of the Japanese people, right?"
A sarcasm spread, and Mo Xiaobai turned his head sideways and saw a North Korean official facing him with a cross-eyebrow: "My dynasty is in danger, as the suzerain, if the Ming Dynasty is the suzerain, if you want to save the DPRK, you should send troops quickly, if you don't want to save each other, you don't have to come to Yizhou to make a big fuss." ”
After finishing speaking, the man turned sideways to face the king of Joseon: "Your Majesty, my Korean army is retreating with the defeat of each other, but it is not without the strength to fight against the Japanese people, there are still tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Uiju, and there are more than 100,000 Korean soldiers and generals in the remaining provinces, states and counties, and they can still fight with the Japanese people. ”
The speaker's words were eloquent and sound, and they soon attracted a chorus.
Does North Korea currently have troops?
Of course!
Although only town-level lords are qualified to lead troops in this dungeon, the third-level lords of the village can enter alone, so there are still many players who enter the dungeon, regardless of whether it is the dynasty or the Korean.
Coupled with the number of troops led by the lord of the town, Mo Xiaobai estimated that North Korea would have 120,000 or 30,000 players.
Although it is not comparable to the player power of Daming, it is already a big boost for North Korea. Because if these players participate in the war, they can recruit a large number of North Korean people, that is, civilian volunteers, in a very short period of time.
Not to mention the combat strength, at least in terms of numbers, it can indeed reach the paper data in the mouth of the North Korean military attaché.
If North Korea wants to fight, it can still get a million 'male soldiers'!
As soon as such a thought surfaced in Li Hao's mind, it made the face of the Joseon king, who was a little vain, flushed.
The lonely country is not dead!
It's just that he just wanted to ask about the specific situation of the so-called 'volunteers', and soon another Korean courtier stood up: "Your Majesty, what the senior military attache said is too one-sided, how can the iron cannon and sharp weapons of the Japanese people be blocked by flesh and blood?" Even if I have millions of subjects in North Korea, I can't let them die in vain. ”
As the voice of rebuttal sounded, soon the North Korean court took the lead in arguing.
Mo Xiaobai knew the reason, just like the Ming Dynasty, the small country of North Korea also has factions between the north and the south, and it is common for the court to make noise.
However, Mo Xiaobai seemed to be watching the excitement from the side, but in fact, he was secretly observing this group of Korean courtiers.
Military attachés who can confidently say 'there are soldiers in the people' must have been in contact with the player, and have even begun to assign some tasks like harassment behind enemy lines.
And some people who do everything possible to exaggerate the 'powerful' image of the Japanese can already be labeled as a 'capitulation faction' in Mo Xiaobai's eyes.
Even if such people do not completely defect, they will still have some connection with the Japanese people.
"Quarrel, if you don't quarrel, I'll be the one who should have a headache."
Mo Xiaobai was happy to see this, but soon someone couldn't stand it anymore and stood up.
Liu Chenglong held back his strength, turned around and roared angrily: "Have you quarreled enough?" The Admiral of the Celestial Empire is here, what are you making noise? Still think the defeat is not shameful enough? ”
was yelled at by Liu Chenglong, and the Korean ministers immediately settled down.
The old prime minister has won the hearts of the king, and his status is not comparable to them.
Seeing that everyone was no longer arguing, Liu Chenglong turned to look at Mo Xiaobai: "Let the Admiral smile, this time my dynasty is in danger, and I can't save the country unless the Celestial Empire comes to help, so I ask the Admiral to give me advice on how to send troops to restore the country." ”
Liu Chenglong still has a bitter face, it seems that this expression has become the standard of his old man.
Although he still disdains the Korean ministers, Mo Xiaobai still has a good impression of Liu Chenglong, and nodded slowly: "I have generally listened to what a few military attachés said, I won't say anything else, I will only ask one question." ”
"Today, the only few fortified cities in North Korea are in the hands of the Japanese people, such as Pyongyang, it is said that the surrounding mountains have Japanese troops stationed there, such a strong city and high wall, can the current North Korean army defeat it?"
Crucial!
It has always been an extremely difficult task on the battlefield!
North Korea took advantage of the location of the city, but they were beaten and abandoned the city and fled, and now the Japanese occupy the city wall, how can North Korea fight?
In this kind of battlefield, you can't get results by piling up people!
Even if Li Hao no longer understands military affairs, he still knows such a simple truth.
