Asan Palace now looks a bit like the "Fortress of the Great Emperor". In the past two years or so, although Zhu Heji did not come to North Korea again, the construction of Asan Palace did not stop, and it was regarded as a North Korea.

The province's number one project has been in full swing for two years.

By the time Zhu Heji came back this time, the entire Asan Valley plus the mountains on the north and south sides had become an integral part of the Asan Palace. A mountain city was built on the mountain, and stretching walls were built along the mountain.

At the east and west entrances of the valley, there are two bastions built with granite stones shipped from Seoul and cement shipped from Nanjing. They are small but strong enough to ensure the safety of the valley. On the other hand, the mountain city and the bastion are

The valley guarded by the guards is filled with barracks, warehouses, palaces, and government offices.

The Governor's Office of the Ming Dynasty, the Admiral's Office, the Navy Admiral's Office, and Zhu Heji's personal expedition palace have long been stationed in the Asan Valley. As for the grain, grass and other military supplies needed to attack Japan, they have been available since two years ago

From the beginning, it was continuously transported by sea to the port of Asan Bay, and then transferred to the Asan Valley for storage.

Since last winter, the main force in the attack on Japan, the five elite Korean infantry towns, have successively arrived at the barracks of Yashan Palace from Shanhaiguan, Jinzhou Prefecture, Liaoyang Prefecture and other places, and have also begun a long march.

Several months of landing exercises.

In the spring of the third year of the Grand Duke's reign, the two towns of the Eight Banners of the Ming Dynasty and the five Mongolian cavalry battalions led by Luo Bo Zang also moved overland to North Korea one after another, and they all stationed themselves in the main camp of Asan Palace.

On April 13, the third year of the Dagong Palace, those who followed Zhu Heji and arrived on hundreds of large bird boats were the Guards Cavalry Battalion, the Sauron Cavalry Battalion (including three Guards Cavalry Leaders), Baer Hu

The cavalry battalion and the five Dzunggar cavalry battalions - these cavalry battalions were reorganized like the five Mongolian cavalry battalions. They all numbered about a thousand people and were all large-scale formations with one battalion and five leaders.

According to different equipment and tasks performed, these cavalry battalions are divided into three categories: heavy cavalry, light cavalry, and general cavalry. Among them, the guard cavalry equipped with breastplates, the Sauron cavalry battalion, and the Barhu cavalry battalion are all heavy cavalry.

Just charge into the formation, it is the decisive force on the battlefield!

The five Mongolian cavalry battalions brought by Luobuzang were all light cavalry. They were not equipped with armor, but were equipped with flintlocks, grenades, bows and arrows and Mongolian scimitars. Although they could not fight a wall charge, they could

He is a very good "cavalryman".

The 5,000 Dzungar cavalry brought to Beijing by Anukotun and Cewang Arabtan are "universal cavalry" that can rush into formations and do miscellaneous tasks, and can even dismount and form formations for infantry combat - in fact, they are traditional oriental cavalry.

Most of the cavalry are this "all-round type", and it is difficult to tell whether they are heavy cavalry, light cavalry or heavy infantry.

In addition to these military preparations on land, the Ming Navy and Nanyang Trading Company are now also ready for an expedition to Japan!

Due to the emergence of "naval mounted shooting" tactics, the current Ming Navy and Nanyang Trading Company no longer rely on soft-sailed warships like the Great Eastern class for combat, so they can build hard-sailed weapons such as large bird ships at a faster speed

Merchant Ship - Because this kind of armed merchant ship does not need to be equipped with heavy guns, it does not need a too strong hull structure, which not only saves high-quality wood, but also greatly saves time.

So by the third year of the Grand Duke's reign, the Ming Navy and the Nanyang Trading Company already had a quite large fleet. The hundreds of big bird ships now gathered in Asan Bay and nearby Haizhou Bay are part of the huge fleet they owned.

part!

It can be said that everything is ready for the war to invade Japan. All we need is the north wind!

...

"Your Majesty, the Japanese King Shiren has issued a great edict, declaring that he will unite the sea and land armies of the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, England, Annan, Burma, Siam and other friendly countries to fight me decisively on the beach of Hakata and reproduce the kamikaze of the Battle of Bunei.

Victory!"

The person who was briefing Zhu Heji on the domestic situation in Japan in Asan Palace was Deputy Prime Minister Song Shiyeol. Although this old man had the title of Deputy Prime Minister, he had been staying at Asan Palace for the past two years to organize the invasion of Japan!

Invade Japan!

Real North Koreans wake up laughing in their dreams when they think about this, and they are full of energy!

Moreover, Zhu Heji also promised Song Shilie two good jobs - the first Japanese Supervisor and the Japanese Great Envoy!

Of course, the Jianguo is responsible for supervising Japan, the "big wolf dog with a pen" in the Ming Dynasty. And the Grand Envoy is a Confucian position, specifically responsible for educating the Japanese devils. If this thing is going to happen, Song Shilie will be the real "Songzi"

.

So Mr. Song is in great spirits now and looks younger than three years ago.

"Hahaha, the Japanese have a lot of friends!"

Zhu Heji laughed out loud after listening to Song Shilie's report.

It is not surprising that Japan has so many friends. In Zhu Heji’s distant memory, Japan had friends all over the world!

Now, it’s time to see if Japan’s allies are true allies or fake allies!

Thinking of this, Zhu Heji smiled and said: "The Japanese's friends don't seem to be close... Well, I'll spare them for a few more months. It's April 13th now, right? July 7th.

Before and after, if the wind direction and weather are suitable, I will have a showdown with them at Hakata Bay!"

Hearing his words, Mr. Song was stunned, "Your Majesty, since ancient times, the art of military use has always focused on winning by surprise? You agreed with the Japanese pirates on a time and place, and then gave them nearly three months to prepare. Isn't it a bit...

..Too kind and righteous?”

Zhu Heji smiled and shook his head, "I have no interest in Japan's land or wealth, and I don't want to overthrow the Tokugawa shogunate. All I want is to abolish the emperor's arrogance, and then turn Japan into a vassal of the Celestial Dynasty...

..In the future, I will use Japan as a springboard to go straight to the New World and save the native people there who were enslaved by the Westerners. Moreover, Japanese samurai can also fight for me and join in the just battle to save the natives of the New World.

Go, if you can make a contribution, I will treat everyone equally and reward you heavily!

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Therefore, the battle between me and Japan is a battle between gentlemen. There is no need to slaughter people everywhere. It would be better if we can agree on a time and place for a gambling fight. "

The purpose of Zhu Heji's invasion of Japan is obvious - to collect dogs! So he didn't want to occupy the entire territory of Japan, and he couldn't do it. Because Japan has a population of 20 million, and there are dozens of samurai who can fight.

Wan, he did not sinicize himself like North Korea... Zhu Heji's wishful thinking was to regard the Japanese devils as the same existence as the Eight Banners of the Ming Dynasty and the Mongols, responsible for clearing the country, no, responsible for saving!

Wherever they were oppressed by the Westerners, the Japanese, the Ming Eight Banners and the Mongols rushed over on ships of the Ming Navy to rescue... Of course, there is no free lunch in the world, and there is no free rescue!

Song Shilie nodded, "Of course the Holy Heavenly Soldiers are invincible. If they can defeat the Japanese in one battle, it is indeed a good thing... But if the Japanese king and the Japanese generals are afraid of the power of heaven, they will not dare to send troops.

, what should we do?"

Zhu Heji smiled and said: "Then let our envoys tell Shiren and Tokugawa Tsunayoshi that they dare not send troops, and I will station in Hakata, and then support Japanese loyal ministers who are willing to cooperate among the powerful vassals in the southwest and support them.

They sent troops to Luo, overthrew the shogunate, and then returned the Japanese government to the Japanese king Shiren who was willing to give up the emperor's arrogance!

Mr. Huayang, your disciples have been to Japan frequently in the past two years, right? They must have had a lot of contacts with the lords of Kyushu and Western Kingdoms in Japan, right? Some of them must want to overthrow the shogunate and support Tadayoshi who is ruling the Japanese king, right?"

Song Shilie was now convinced by Zhu Heji. An invasion could still be said to be so just, and the behavior of treason and surrender to the leading party was described as "loyal and good". By the way, he also used "repaying the great government" to seduce the Japanese king Shiren.
