Hold Tsushima Island in your hand as a bargaining chip.

Mo Xiaobai didn't have similar ideas, but he just wanted to cut off the sea transportation route from the Japanese Kingdom to North Korea by occupying Tsushima Island.

And the meaning of a ray of morning light is to ask Mo Xiaobai to take Tsushima Island to negotiate with the Japanese people.

Tsushima for Sado?

One is the geographical location, and the other is the high value of the production on the other island. It seems that the two are not equal, but with the addition of hundreds of thousands of Japanese expeditionary forces, the value of such a transaction is a bit interesting.

"This time, Toyotomi Hideyoshi sent almost more than eighty percent of his henchmen to attack Korea, and now that Konishi Yukinaga is dead, I don't plan to let go of Kato Kiyomasa's Second Army. If all the remaining Japanese people died in Korea, Toyotomi Hideyoshi would no longer be able to sit in the Sekibai position safely. ”

Mo Xiaobai whispered, and his eyes gradually turned different: "We can take this opportunity to negotiate with Toyotomi Hideyoshi, of course, provided that we can capture alive the remaining generals, including the commander of the expeditionary force, Ukita Hideie." ”

"Hmm."

A wisp of morning light smiled and nodded, also a little excited: "I heard that after Toyotomi Hideyoshi entered the twilight year, his brain has not been very good, we can make preparations with both hands, and at the same time contact Tokugawa Ieyasu, he is also an ambitious guy." If he is willing to sign this treaty, we will help Tokugawa overthrow Toyotomi Hideyoshi, anyway, at this moment the nominal leader of Japan is still the emperor, if the emperor is not moved, the resistance is very small. ”

"Makes sense."

Mo Xiaobai nodded silently, he had only thought about winning the battle before, and then followed the momentum of a big victory, forcing the Japanese State to cede Sado Island, but the specific implementation was actually one step at a time.

At this moment, a ray of morning light finished speaking, making Mo Xiaobai more clear about his goal.

Defeating the Wa expeditionary force is a goal that must be accomplished. If you can, it's best to capture them all, which is enough to blackmail Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu.

Coupled with Tsushima Island, which is an addition, it is no longer impossible to change Sado.

"I have already sent people to Sado and the Wa Province mainland, and I believe that accurate information will be delivered soon. In the meantime, I just need to continue to put pressure on Seoul. ”

Touching his chin, Mo Xiaobai's thoughts became clearer, and he raised his wine glass at the moment: "Let's have a drink together?" Celebrate in advance. ”

"Heh~ Don't make a bamboo basket for water." A wisp of morning light said this, but still raised the cup.

"Trust me, it won't."

"Then we'll see."

………

Three days passed in a flash, and when Mo Xiaobai's good news came back to Uiju from Pyongyang, everyone in the entire city of Uiju from the Joseon king Li Hao to those noble subjects, no one was rejoicing.

Pyongyang!

Although it is not a national capital, its status is the same as that of Seoul.

Once Pyongyang is recovered, North Korea's restoration is finally in sight.

Also hearing the good news was Li Rusong, knowing that Mo Xiaobai had won a big battle in the south, completely destroying 20,000 people in Konishi's Chang Army, and capturing Pyongyang City at the same time, even he was a little jealous of this martial art.

Although Li Rusong has been to many battlefields over the years, he has never had the opportunity to show his prestige outside the Ming Dynasty.

In his eyes, this kind of military exploit is not much worse than opening up the territory and expanding the territory.

"I'm going to make meritorious service too."

"I can't be compared to that yellow-mouthed child!"

With this thought, Li Rusong was already a little impatient in Yizhou City, and just when he was ready to go back to Liaodong to meet Song Yingchang first, Nurhachi hurriedly walked into the city station.

"Dalang, the Admiral has a new order, and he is ready to transfer us to the front."

"What did you say, Anu?"

When Li Rusong heard this, his face quickly showed a look of ecstasy: "That person is going to transfer us to the front line?" Finally willing to let me go to war? ”

"The appointment just came, you see."

Nurhachi handed over the order of the admiral in his hand, and the more Li Rusong looked at it, the more smiles on his face: "Okay, good, my opportunity has finally come, just a little white face can take Pyongyang, and of course I can get war merits if I go." ”

"Da Lang, it is also written on it, before our army moves, we must first stabilize the Koreans in the city, and we can't let them coax south."

"This is natural, I will fight tomorrow, what do you want them to make a fuss about?"

Li Rusong was completely unimpressed by this military order, and sneered: "Follow me to see the king of Joseon, I see if he dares to jump in front of me." Until I get military merit, I must not let these North Koreans follow the bad deeds. ”

After Li Rusong finished speaking, he strode out of the door.

He knew that the king of Joseon should have received the news at this moment, and maybe he was ready to discuss returning to Pyongyang.

But I, Li Rusong, how can I let you waste follow and stir things up?

Of course, the North Koreans should stay in Uiju obediently.

Not to mention how Li Rusong wants to toss North Korea up and down, when the whole of Yiju has been shrouded in the joy of good news, there are people on the Yalu River who lead a thin horse to face the wind and snow to the east of Daming Liaodong.

After he went ashore, he did not go to Zhenjiang Fort, but directly bypassed Jiulian City and hurried west.

Along the way, I only stopped at a few hidden post stations. Finally, on the occasion of the handover of the lunar month and the New Year, he sent the special 'good news' he carried to the Imperial City of Beijing.

When this good news that only Jinyiwei changed hands was sent to Zhu Yijun, the Son of Heaven, who would be called 'Divine Sect' in the future, did not let go of his hands after reading the battle report three or four times.

Ten fingers clasped tightly, Zhu Yijun's heart was not calm.

No one knows how difficult it is to manage the Ming Dynasty, and he has inherited the position of the Son of Heaven for decades, but it is extremely difficult to do something.

There is a desire to increase business taxes, but there is collusion below.

Sent ministers to supervise the mine harvest, but they were often fooled and opposed.

Zhu Yijun actually wanted to say, if I have money, do I still need to use this method to tarnish my reputation as the Son of Heaven?

However, as the Son of Heaven, he doesn't even have a place to talk!

"This son understands me."

"The Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, and this is the only one who understands me!"

Zhu Yijun grabbed the battle report in his right hand, and his eyes were still staring at the words 'cut land', 'gold', and 'war wealth'.

From the words of the entire battle report, it can be seen that the Admiral of the Eastern Crusade who he personally appointed supports him!

It's to support him to 'make money'!

"There's still money in the inner treasury, and I've moved the navy!"

Zhu Yijun is very excited now, and anyone who knows that there is a mountain of gold in front of him will be as excited as him. What's more, Mo Xiaobai has already used his military exploits and specific analysis to illustrate the feasibility of occupying Jinshan.

He Zhu Yijun has decided this golden mountain!

"But don't be in a hurry to break it first, but also find someone to command the navy, and then take it to the court after everything is ready."

Zhu Yijun walked around his study several times, and then raised his eyes to see Luo Sigong still guarding the side, and immediately asked: "Now that the army is on an expedition to North Korea, what news is there about the coastal defense?" ”

"Your Majesty is asking about the movement of the navy?"

"Well, it's important to pick it up."

Luo Sigong rolled his eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile: "Something important, that's nothing, it's just an interesting thing, or it can amuse Your Majesty." ”

"What?"

"Although the navy did not participate in the war this time, according to the usual practice, in order to echo the Korean expeditionary troops in a timely manner in the war, the navy also needs to elect another officer."

Luo Sigong said with a smile: "There is a small general in the Seventh Battalion of the Divine Machine, who is jumping up and down for this matter. ”
