"There are still stone figures!" Nangong Wudi suddenly noticed a stone figure standing at the gate of the city, which looked very strange.
This is the unique stone statue on Jeju Island: "Dolharubang". It is a manifestation of ancient stone worship.
However, Nangong Wudi is not a cultural scholar, let alone a tourist. He is not very interested in these. After observing the defense situation at the top of the city for a long time, he shouted: "Zichuan!"
"Yes!" Zichuan Xiuji, who had been promoted to a sergeant in the security army, immediately ran out of the team. A security army platoon was incorporated into the task force attacking Jingyi County.
"Take your men and give me ten minutes to capture the county seat."
"Understood!" Zichuan said simply and neatly.
Zichuan and his men quickly prepared for battle. He glanced at Nangong as if asking for instructions, and when he saw the other party nodded, he pulled out his sword fiercely, with a ferocious look in his eyes: "Fix the bayonet!"
As Nangong Wudi raised his sword high and let out a heart-rending howl: more than thirty Japanese mercenaries from the Japanese company of the security forces, holding Southeast Asian-style rifles with shining bayonets, howled at the top of their lungs, "Onboard
!" Let's start "pig burst" together.
The ones at the front were the "Bad Sword Team" headed by Zichuan, each waving their shining swords, roaring and rushing forward.
"Suppress and shoot." Nangong Wudi ordered.
All Mini rifles fired at the city head together, and a dense rain of bullets swept across the city head. After one round of shooting, there were no more Li Chao soldiers standing on the city head.
The Japanese mercenaries ran quickly across the open space - there were no trenches outside the city. They easily approached the city wall. Under the suppressive fire of Mini rifles, not a single arrow was fired from the city top, and no one dared to poke out.
Throwing a stone at the head. The mercenaries quickly rushed to the bottom of the city wall. They had no ladders or ropes. They saw short and sturdy Japanese soldiers standing one on top of the other, and they quickly set up human ladders.
The first group to climb the city wall was the Ba Dao team. After climbing the city wall, they found out how sad it was - the width of the city wall could only allow one person to stand on it, and it was impossible for two people to walk across from each other. If it weren't for the slope behind, a
The best thing to do if you step on the ground is to roll down, otherwise the Japanese mercenaries rushing up with a fierce roar will have to smash a few to death.
There were not many soldiers of the Li Dynasty left on the top of the city. Under the continuous firing of Mini rifles, the short and thin female wall could not withstand high-speed bullets. Some soldiers were killed on the spot, while others took full advantage of the slope and immediately
Sneak down to the city.
The bloody battle at the top of the city that Zichuan expected did not happen - they faced only dozens of frightened and unwary Li Dynasty soldiers. When they saw that these "Japanese pirates" had climbed up the city wall,
, except for a few officers and a few soldiers who reluctantly fought and were quickly cut down and assassinated, the rest of the people dispersed in a hurry.
In less than ten minutes, the Japanese mercenaries had occupied the city gate. Zichuan swung his sword fiercely, shook off the blood drops, and ran down the city with a few people, rushed to the city gate, removed the gate bars, and opened the city gate.
Done in one go.
"Not bad." Nangong Wudi looked at his watch, it was exactly ten minutes. Although this was expected, the Japanese-style fanaticism shown by these mercenaries was quite interesting.
The large forces soon entered Jingyi County. How to occupy and loot has formed a standard process in the Planning Institute. The Planning Institute even specially compiled an iso standard manual to guide the steps of occupying newly captured cities. As an officer
and a course in the training of administrative personnel. In addition, a special search team under the jurisdiction of the Planning Institute is organized into each overseas force to receive, register and store trophies and prisoners.
The troops entering the city quickly cleared away the stragglers in the city. After hanging a flag with the words "He who surrenders will avoid death" and using loudspeakers to continuously broadcast in Korean, the soldiers of the Li Dynasty who were not killed quickly
Twos and threes came out from all corners and surrendered.
Due to insufficient troops, they could not surround the whole city. Therefore, many soldiers and people in the city jumped from the city wall and escaped. Nangong Wudi did not pursue them - this place itself is an island, and it is not easy for the fleeing people to cross the sea to the Korean Peninsula.
, except for a few people, most people will eventually fall into their hands.
Nangong Wudiqi entered the city with his own guards and staff in a grand manner. The flutist and drummer played "Grenadier March" and entered the city. Unexpectedly, he stepped into the mud as soon as he entered the city gate. The mud was everywhere.
Splashed, making his relatively neat uniform filthy.
"mmd." Nangong Wudi cursed - he actually forgot: the streets in most cities in this time and space have never been hardened, either at home or abroad. It is a normal phenomenon to walk in mud.
There was chaos in the city for a while, but calm was quickly restored under the rapid pressure of the security forces. The people and the officials and slaves thought they were Japanese pirates. Many people jumped off the city wall where there was no Fubo army and fled to hide in the wilderness.
Some hid in remote places in the city. Those who had no time to escape had no choice but to hide in houses and resign themselves to their fate.
The accompanying civil affairs personnel posted notices to calm the people, and then made continuous broadcasts in Korean to calm the people down.
Nangong Wudi visited the county town with great interest. Jingyi County town looked desolate. The houses were all low-rise houses with volcanic stone walls and thatch roofs. Even official buildings such as the county school and the supervisory camp had only functional roofs.
Apart from the tiles, it is also short. Basically, a person standing on the ground can touch the eaves with a raised hand.
The houses of common people's servants and servants didn't even have floors, just mud floors. Only the houses of wealthy businessmen and officials had raised floors. Because of the geographical environment of Jeju Island, the interiors of most houses are very damp and cold.
.
The county has a county school, an official warehouse, a small market, and several small shops and workshops.
The shop owners had already fled, leaving only empty music scores. Nangong Wudi looked at them and saw that they were nothing more than sauce shops, grocery stores, carpentry shops, wine shops, blacksmith shops and other basic commercial and handicraft industries that must be doubled everywhere. However, he
I saw a very special workshop: the bow and arrow shop.
The bow and arrow shop is large, but there is no one inside. The stove for baking bamboo is still lit. The horn glue and fish maw glue pot are boiling on the stove. There are many wood, bamboo poles, feathers, and cattle piled on the floor.
sinews, horns, etc. Hanging on the wall are the bows made of them.
Wandering around, you can see finished products and semi-finished products everywhere. Nangong Wudi roughly estimates that there are only a hundred finished bows, and a few semi-finished products, as well as three or four hundred. As for feather arrows, there are even more - just making arrow bodies.
There are two to three hundred bundles of thin bamboo poles.
Obviously, so many bows and arrows cannot serve Jeju Island itself, but are more likely to be goods exported by Jeju Island.
Considering the large number of horses and cattle in the local area, it is natural that they are rich in cowhide, horns and horse and cow tendons - these are important raw materials for making bows and arrows.
The headquarters of the occupying forces was located in the best building in the county: Jingyi Supervisory Camp.
Nangong Wudi was promoted to the lobby, and the captured six-room clerk in the county who had not had time to escape was driven over - the local political system of the Li Dynasty in North Korea was similar to that of the Ming Dynasty in detail. There are also officials, households, rituals, soldiers, and workers in the county prison.
, Xingliufang is responsible for county affairs. The officials in Liufang are all rural officials selected from the local people. They are very familiar with the local situation. Therefore, the first step after capturing the city is to control these people.
With no salary and no promotion channels, petty officials who live on gray income are generally not very loyal to the dynasty. This was the case in the Ming Dynasty and the same in North Korea. Especially when their lives and property are threatened, petty officials
I quickly chose to cooperate.
The official language of the Li Dynasty was Chinese. Although "Proverbs" existed, it was not widely used. Neither scholars nor officials used it. It was mainly used by women and lower-class people. Because important official and private documents were all written in Chinese, these petty officials
Although they don't speak Chinese, they can read and write Chinese. Therefore, the staff sent by the Planning Institute can have "written conversations" with them without the help of a translator.
The officials quickly provided enough information about the county. The residents in the county, including the villages outside the city next to the city wall, have a total population of 8,000. Two-thirds of them are official slaves. Of course, there are also
Many people live in villages outside the city. The total population of the county, including public and private slaves, is fifteen to six thousand.
Regarding horses, all official horse ranches are under the unified management of Jeju Animal Husbandry, and the county supervisor has no jurisdiction. However, there are still some private ranches where horses, cattle and sheep are raised.
"Is there anyone named Jin Wanyi in this county?" Nangong Wudi suddenly asked.
The junior officials looked at each other and secretly thought that these Japanese pirates have taken a liking to Master Jin!
Kim Man-il was a well-known wealthy family in Jeju at that time. He was named Langguan because he presented ten thousand horses to the court at one time.
"Master Jin lives in Jeju, not in this county." One of the clerks replied, "There is also his ranch in this county."
The most valuable confessions from the officials were about the food stored in the city: there were more than 10,000 dan of food stored in two official warehouses. This figure made Nangong Wudi quite excited - at least before the refugees arrived, there was plenty of food.
But the conversation that followed soon made him unhappy.
It is true that there are more than 10,000 kilograms of grain in the county, but Jeju Island just suffered a famine last year, and the private grain stocks are extremely scarce. Winter has just entered, and relief will be needed when the harvest is lean next year. Moreover, there are five to six thousand official slaves in the county.
These people basically have to receive consular services from the county supervisor to survive.
The official slaves farmed and herded for the county supervisor, but they themselves did not get any harvest. Their food rations and clothing were all provided by the county supervisor. When encountering natural disasters, a large number of official slaves not only could not play a role, but became
to overcome the huge burden of supervising the camp. (To be continued)!~!
