The fleet stopped here temporarily to replenish food and water, and the army soldiers on board the fleet could also come down and take a rest.
The commander of the army was leading a few soldiers towards Incheon City. As he walked, he looked at the scenery of Incheon City and was very amazed in his heart. It was completely different from the cities in the north, and it was also different from the city on Liangshan.
Same, everything here reveals the exotic style
The light is also unusually prosperous, and people on the street seem to have a look of confidence in their eyes, which is different from the people in other places. But at this time, because the war is coming, the port is full of naval warships
, there are also many soldiers in the city.
When he arrived at the gate of the Governor's Mansion and informed his name, someone immediately came to receive him.
"Commander Wu, the Commander-in-Chief is waiting for you inside!" The person who came to receive him was a platoon leader, the platoon leader said.
"Take me to him quickly." The man said.
At this moment, the Governor's Mansion was also extremely busy. He saw countless soldiers along the way, all of whom seemed to be in a hurry. Judging from the clothes on their bodies, they should all be staff officers from the military department.
When he arrived at the main hall of the Governor's Mansion, he entered after passing various checks.
Wu Dong is here, Ruan Xiaoqi, Zhang Shun, Ximen Qing and others are also here. Everyone is still perfecting the battle plan, troop mobilization and other issues. When someone notified him of his arrival, everyone turned their attention to
he.
A bright smile appeared on Wu Dong's face. The man in front of him was his brother, and this time he was here too!
"Brother!" That person was naturally Wu Song. Wu Song laughed and moved forward, hugging Wu Dong tightly.
"Wu Song, you're late this time!" Wu Dong laughed.
"Brother, you can't blame me for this. I have wanted to come since I received the order from the military. However, Luan Tingyu, Sun Li and others have not gone south, and it is impossible for me to give up the defense line in the south. If something goes wrong,
I can't explain it." Wu Song said with a smile.
"Their two armies have now arrived. Do they accept Yanyun's southern defense line?" Wu Dong said.
"Yes!" Wu Dong said.
Wu Dong nodded. Now that the situation in the north has calmed down, Luan Tingyu and Sun Li's 200,000 troops were of little use in the north, so the military decided to transfer both of their armies to the Yanyun area! As for Wu Song
, this time it is to participate in the Japanese War.
"How prepared is your Sixth Army?" Wu Dong said.
"We have been preparing every day and have wanted to fight for a long time!" Wu Song said.
Over the years, he has participated in a limited number of wars. Except for the time when they were in Hedong, when they led troops to attack Taiyuan City, they have never conducted combat missions. After receiving the order from the military this time, he was very excited.
As for his army, if we only talk about the amount of training, it is not inferior to other armies. The only thing that may be lacking is experience.
"Your Sixth Army is the main attack this time! You are my brother, you must fight this battle for me and don't embarrass me!" Wu Dong said.
"Don't worry, brother!" Wu Song said with a smile.
"Okay, Ximen Qing, tell him about the situation in Japan and the deployment of troops there," Wu Dong said.
"Yes!" Ximen Qing walked up.
At that moment, Ximen Qing brought Wu Song to a table next to him. There was a huge sand table on the table, which contained the terrain of Japan, the layout of the troops, the location of the cities, etc.! Originally, the sand table was on the navy's treasure ship.
It has now been moved to the Governor's Mansion.
"Commander Wu, the current military strength of Japan is about 370,000! In order to seize power, the Emperor of Japan mobilized samurai from all over the country to Kyoto, so the number of troops there is the largest! There is also a small number located in the south of Honshu Island.
Part of the force is mainly to prevent us from going north to Honshu Island..." Ximen Qing began to talk there.
As time slowly passed, more and more Liangshan troops were concentrated in the northeast. They included Wu Song's Sixth Army, Ruan Xiaoqi, Zhang Shun's First Navy Army, Zhang Heng, Tong Wei, Tongmeng and others.
The Second Navy Corps, in addition to the Jurchens
A heavy cavalry regiment composed of people also came here. Now, the strength of the troops here has reached 310,000. Some troops are taking a rest in Incheon Port, some are in Jeju Island, Tsushima Island, and
The one is in the north of Kyushu Island.
In fact, not only the army is being mobilized towards the Northeast, but also a large amount of war materials are being mobilized towards the Northeast. Countless military rations, medicines, and equipment have been transported to the direction of Oki Kingdom.
Oki Country is a large island next to Honshu Island in Japan. It is not small in area. In later generations, it was occupied by Japanese people and was called the Oki Islands. Now it is the territory of Liangshan. It is located in the west of Honshu Island, but it is about 30 kilometers away
The nearest island to Kyoto Prefecture is also where the command center of Liangshan is located this time.
"We have mobilized an army of 300,000 and mobilized so much supplies. How can the Japanese not know about it?" Wu Dong asked worriedly in the Governor's Mansion.
"Don't worry, Grand Governor, they won't know! Since last summer, we have implemented a comprehensive blockade of Japan! We can guarantee that all ships, large and small, in Japan cannot leave more than ten miles from the coastline. Once a ship leaves, we will
Destroy their ships! Now they can't detect any movement we make on the sea!" Ruan Xiaoqi said.
"Very good!" Wu Dong nodded.

In the blink of an eye, the first day of the fourth lunar month arrived, which was also the first modern exam in Korea.
On this day in Seoul, a total of 20,000 students came here. Among them, 2,000 students will enter universities for further studies, and will go to various positions in society and become elite talents in the society.
All the students taking the exam had expressions of excitement and longing, and some were extremely nervous, fearing that they would not pass the exam.
Among these people was a young man. He was wearing patchwork clothes, but his expression was unusually indifferent. He looked to be in his mid-twenties, tall, handsome, and stood out among the crowd.
Many people around him looked at him, but he didn't seem to be affected in any way.
"Brother Hu, looking at your expression, you must be in high school for this exam?" asked a student next to him.
"There will be 2,000 people selected for this exam. If I can't even get in among 2,000 people, I won't be able to see my hometown folks!" he said.
"Brother Hu, what are you doing looking eastward?" asked another person next to him.
"There is going to be a war in the east, and it is a big war. The target should be Japan!" he said.
"Japanese?" Many students next to him showed surprised expressions.
"Yes, at present, we have no other enemies in the east except Japan! I read the newspapers these days and it says that the Japanese are ready to make a move. They have formed an army of samurai with all their strength, and they seem to be going to counterattack Kyushu Island! Therefore, our army
The target must be Japan!" he said.
"Brother Hu, what time is it now, and you are still in the mood to care about the war?" A student next to him said disapprovingly.
"I heard that the Grand Governor wrote an inscription to the university, 'The sound of wind and rain can be heard when reading; the family affairs, state affairs, and world affairs should be concerned about everything.' Since we want to enter the university, we naturally have to follow the Grand Governor's instructions! Is it true?
Isn't it?" He laughed.
The students next to them still disagreed. They naturally knew that Wu Dong's inscription was correct, but at this critical moment, studying textbooks is the most important, and everything else is irrelevant! When they enter university in the future, they may
You can be "concerned about family affairs, state affairs, and everything in the world," but now you are in no mood to pay attention to other things.
The entrance examination of Korea University only tests new studies and sciences, and each subject only lasts for one hour. This is different from the imperial examinations in the past dynasties. In the past dynasties, the imperial examinations were extremely long, and some dynasties even lasted for three days.
Three days and three nights. During the three days and three nights, the students were locked in a separate room. No one was allowed to go out. It often happened that students fainted from hunger. For the imperial examination, students had to be in extreme conditions.
To write eight-part essays for a long time, you have to put your best effort into each one before you finally dare to write it. However, the university exam is to test knowledge. If you don’t know it, it will be difficult to come up with the answer even if you think for a long time. In the new exam
There are some arguments and essays, but the test is not about writing skills, but whether the students have their own opinions and whether they can truly solve practical problems.
The exam was held in the morning of the first day of April and was completed two hours later. By the afternoon, scholars from the Academy of Sciences had already started marking the papers.
However, there are 20,000 papers in total, and it will take a certain amount of time to complete the marking.
Wu Dong summoned Qin Hui late that night and said, "I am about to go to Japan. Have you found any outstanding talents in this exam?"
