A net-like curtain has been erected in the shelter at the foot of Seongsan Mountain, and the sentries on guard all around are armed with live ammunition and bayonets flashing. In the large command tent within the curtain, the personnel of the Jeju Island Landing Command are busy nervously.
A situation map of Jeju Island based on large-scale maps and historical materials of the 21st century is laid out on the combined map table. Members of the Jeju Island front finger: Second Fleet Admiral Li Haiping, Special Reconnaissance Team Captain Xue Ziliang, Jeju Island Task Force
Team commander Nangong Wudi and Jeju Island Civil Affairs Commissioner Feng Zongze are studying the situation.
Although Jeju Island was the front line against the Japanese, the military power of the Lee Dynasty was not strong. According to historical records, the entire Jeju Island garrison had less than 2,000 men. As for the combat strength of these 2,000 men, the elders agreed that it was completely inadequate.
It is worth mentioning that thirty years ago, the Japanese army was in an uninhabited territory in Korea, and four years ago, the army of the Lee Dynasty was even more vulnerable to the chaos of Jeong Mao. King Injo of Korea fled directly to Ganghwa Island, the only way to retreat.
The enemy's policy is to seek peace.
Escorted by the Second Fleet to land on Jeju Island, there were two infantry companies of the Northward Detachment’s Jeju Island Task Force, an engineering company and a security army company, as well as a directly affiliated company equipped with four artillery pieces. In terms of construction, there were Jeju
There are directly affiliated squadrons, horse breeding squadrons and four general labor squadrons under the Island Farm Reclamation Wing. The total number of people who landed is about 1,200. In addition to the weapons of the field army and security army, the Farm Reclamation Wing is also equipped with cold weapons.
"I am commanding the labor squadron, armed with standard spears and machetes, I can completely destroy these two thousand Li Dynasty troops." The speaker was Nangong Wudi. This man has the pot head loved by army veterans. He is 170cm tall, medium-fat but thin.
His muscles are strong. It can be seen that his body has been in good physical condition after long-term exercise. His thick arms and bulging muscles, as well as an M1911 pistol rarely used by the elders, indicate that he is a man with strong arms. The most peculiar thing is
There was a leather holster around his waist - containing a slingshot made of steel wire and beef tendon.
He was wearing an Army uniform and the rank of Army Captain. Nangong Wudi once served as a squad leader in the pla: he was good at leading troops, training and fighting. Therefore, it was logical for him to join the Army after D-Day. During the second anti-encirclement and suppression campaign
He was an infantry company commander of the Fubo Army, but he was in the reserve. So except for charging for a while during the final pursuit and capturing hundreds of prisoners, the entire Chengmai Battle was just sitting on the ground and waiting. Therefore, in the Chengmai Battle
It was not his turn for subsequent large-scale promotions.
However, for the purpose of cultivating veteran officers, shortly after the Chengmai Battle, the General Staff organized an advanced army tactics class to train all veteran army officers below the battalion level in batches as a reserve team for future mid-level and senior officers.
In addition to strategy, the content also focuses on explaining military organization, training, and tactics in the era of queuing to kill. A large part of it is the tactics and experience of launching a "security war" as a support force for "social transformation" after entering the mainland extensively.
lesson.
Nangong Wudi's grades in the advanced tactics class are only average. But he has very strong professional abilities. His experience of wandering around in society and surviving after being discharged from the army allowed him to master Mongolian, Manchu, Korean, Vietnamese, Tibetan and Uyghur.
The language used for daily communication. This advantage in language skills allowed him to be selected as the commander of the army landing on Jeju Island during the preparation stage of Operation Engine.
Jeju Island Civil Affairs Councilor Feng Zongze said: "It is no problem to overthrow the ruling institutions of the Lee Dynasty. But this area is very large. Do we have enough manpower to defend the entire island?"
Feng Zongze is a head taller than Nangong Wudi and looks very strong. His appearance makes people feel very sincere. He is the owner of a small drug store. His skills are: licensed pharmacist and junior nutritionist in psychology, and good at psychology.
I can cook, drive a medium-sized car and tractor, and can do maintenance and repairs. I can also do some riding. The key is to be able to speak fluent Japanese and barely understandable Korean. So I can apply for the Jeju Island Civil Affairs Committee.
He stood out among dozens of soy sauce elders - this was a public and official reason. According to unreliable rumors, this person was selected by the Organization Department because he had an affair with a female elder and was personally threatened by the female elder's boyfriend.
He holds this position. Of course, no one except Wuchongzhen Tongbao would believe such nonsense. Minglang, director of the Organization Department, also firmly denied it: "We have a set of procedures for selecting veterans to hold administrative positions. This
The process is completely open and transparent.”
But judging from his ability, choosing him as a veteran with many skills as a foreign civil officer would be like slapping seven to death: for example, the engine command department did not send any veteran medical personnel to accompany him.
Xue Ziliang said: "We don't need to defend the entire island. We only need to defend our base. The Koreans can do whatever they like. If they want to fight, we will deal with them severely."
"No. The enemy still needs to be disarmed." As the supreme commander of this operation, Nangong Wuyi objected, "There are a lot of resources on Jeju Island. We can only use them effectively by controlling the Li Dynasty bureaucrats and disarming them."
.If you don’t capture the local officials of the Li Dynasty, how can you know where the officials and horses are on the island? How many specific people are there on the island? We have a lot of historical data that are true, but there are discrepancies between the historical data and reality. Furthermore,
The historical data are not detailed enough."
If outsiders want to rule a place, the local leading party is indispensable. Forming a "pseudo regime" and appointing "traitors" is always the occupying army's only choice.
"We also need the food reserves from the local government and the requisition of the local population. It will not work without controlling the government." Feng Zongze also quickly expressed his position.
"Okay, I have no objection. Just follow your ideas." Xue Ziliang raised his hand in submission. He was not averse to fighting - after all, this was his value.
"We need to capture the three cities of Jeju, Dajing and Jingyi as soon as possible and control the Li Dynasty's ruling institutions on the island." Nangong Wudi circled the three places with ink on the glass plate on the map.
Jeju Island has three cities: Jeju, Daejeong County, and Jeongui County. They are the three administrative centers on the island, with pastoral envoys and county supervisors (county magistrates) and local officials respectively.
Jeju is the Jeju City of the old time and space. It is also the political and economic center of the island. Its population accounts for about half of the island's population. Daejong County is at the southwest end of the island. Jeongui County is in the south-eastern part of the island, that is,
The city in the old time and space. It was closest to the city where they landed.
"I just don't know how these two thousand people will be deployed." Feng Zongze hesitated. "If not, they will be stationed in these three cities."
"There are also soldiers stationed at the beacon tower and other places." Xue Ziliang said. According to the information provided by the Great Library, in addition to the three cities, the Li Dynasty also had 9 garrison stations across the island, and each garrison station must be
There are also some soldiers.
To garrison a large island with a radius of 500 kilometers with a meager force of about 2,000 people, and to disperse the deployment like spreading sesame seeds and salt everywhere, it will inevitably lead to insufficient troops in every place. From this point of view, the deployment ideas of the Li Dynasty's army
Similar to the Green Camp of the later Qing Dynasty, it was fortified everywhere and deployed in a decentralized manner. It focused more on performing police tasks rather than field troops. It was easy for the task force to defeat them one by one.
"We can also interrogate the prisoners. The prisoners can give us first-hand information." Xue Ziliang said.
Immediately, the soldiers were ordered to bring in the captured haenyeo for interrogation. The fact that Xue Ziliang caught a naked woman as soon as he landed ashore aroused a strong interest in Feng Zongze and others. It was not that they were short of women: all three of them bought maids.
However, I have a reverie about the "Ama" who dive naked into the sea to fish for seafood.
Of course, the haenyeo in the old time and space all wore tight-fitting wetsuits, or at least swimsuits. And most of the women who continue to insist on this industry are middle-aged and above women - because it was too difficult, the Japanese and Korean women in the old time and space have already
I am no longer a haenyeo.
Now that they heard that there was a "Haenyeo" that fit their fantasies, these few couldn't help but feel agitated in their hearts.
Before the haenyeo were brought, Feng Zongze and Nangong Wudi first debated in elementary Korean on the issue of who spoke Korean better. During this period, in order to show that their Korean was more advanced, each other used a certain Korean word.
They exchanged greetings with each other. As for Li Haiping, the naval admiral who had nothing to do with the trial, he also remained silent and continued to stay motionless in the tent.
After the haenyeo came in, they immediately lowered their heads and knelt down. Although the weather in Jeju Island is warmer, it is still winter after all. The temperature outside the tent is less than ten degrees. When going into the sea, the haenyeo have to smear oil on their bodies before entering the water, and then drink strong liquor to keep away the cold.
In addition, having been in the water all year round, the frost resistance is better than that of ordinary people. It does not mean that you have a special physique. Although you have a straw shirt to cover your body, your half-naked body is blown by the cold wind, and you can't stand it. Enter the tent.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief - it was much warmer inside.
The hair of the haenyeo are all tied up on top of their heads, and their exposed skin is bronzed due to long-term immersion in sea water and exposure to the sun. Their bodies are quite toned due to long-term exercise. You can tell several of them just by looking at them up close.
She is already quite old - in this time and space, there are only two or three young women who can be considered as aunts. Feng Zongze's Korean skills are better and he asked a few questions.
When they realized that these people wearing gray and blue short coats and driving big boats could speak their own language, the haenyeo raised their heads one by one and widened their eyes - the people in front of them were not the "Japanese pirates" they were most afraid of.
.On Jeju Island, there are sometimes "Tang people" and "Japanese people" who have been shipwrecked and drifted here, and sometimes there are Japanese pirates who attack, but it is obviously not the case in front of us. (To be continued)!~!
