I, Zhu Youjian: the first prodigal son of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 184
When the news of Daming Engineering Bureau, Daming Academy and [-] veterans sailing to Pengbao Island in Taiwan reached the ears of Li Zicheng and others, the fleet of the idiot emperor Zhu Youjian had actually set off from Kuwu Island.

On the way, he also wanted to beat the King of Korea to the ground first.

Zhu Youjian felt uncomfortable thinking about this king surnamed Li, who was slick and slick, trying to have both sides.

Last time, if Zheng Zhilong and Cao Wenzhao's reinforcements hadn't rushed there in time to disperse the coalition forces composed of Jiannu cavalry and Gaoli water army, it is estimated that Mao Wenlong would have been killed.

Once Phi Island is lost, without the power to restrain Jiannu, those pig-tailed heads are probably already ready to move and go south.

Under the Jiuyuan catastrophe, the further north you go, the more serious the disaster will be.

In the vast land of Liaodong and Mobei, there is a blizzard every now and then, and a three-year drought from time to time. The people on the grassland are already hungry to eat sheep dung...

"Long live, which place shall we attack first?"

On the deck of the armored battleship, Zhu Youjian was learning a foreign language, with a heartless look, which made Zheng Zhilong envious.

Look, this is what it looks like to be an emperor.

No matter when, never forget to learn foreign languages, always ready to conquer foreign countries...

"We're on the boat, they're on the shore, it's not easy to fight this battle," the idiot emperor said lazily, but pretended to be very skilled, "Fei Huang, look at it.

Anyway, it hurts them.

This time, let him have a look first. After we solve the food problem of the basic plate of Ming Dynasty, I will play with the concubines of King Goryeo, haha! "

Zheng Zhilong: "..."

Jian'an character, Cao Gong demeanor.

Fortunately, this Long Live Lord was born in the Ming Dynasty. If it was in the first year of Jian'an... he would have been beaten into a pig's head long ago.

"Long Live Lord, let's go to Koryo. There are two seaport cities, which can be regarded as the naval bases of Koryo." Zheng Zhilong spread out a map, pointed to two of them, and said with a smile:
"Among them, this one is located in the east of the Koryo Peninsula, surrounded by a large number of scattered islands, our iron-clad warships cannot travel..."

Zhu You took a look at Zheng Zhilong's reference to the 'harbour city', and said noncommittally: "Just hit it casually, there is no need to go to war.

By the way, where is King Goryeo now?

Is it in Rangseong or in Seoul? "

Zheng Zhilong smiled and said: "The king surnamed Li colluded with Jiannu and almost killed Mao Wenlong. As a result, it is better now that Mao Wenlong's [-] cavalry chased him down;
According to the news that came in a few days ago, it is more likely that the king of Koryo should be in Seoul now. "

Zhu Youjian nodded slightly, and said, "Then go to Seoul."

Zheng Zhilong's heart skipped a beat, and his face changed slightly.

This, Lord Long Live, is so domineering.

A flirtatious 'then go to Seoul', are you going to fight Seoul?

Just kidding, that place is also one of the old lairs of the King of Korea. There are many soldiers in the city, and the hoarded food and grass can be eaten for three to five years, right?
We are sailors...

"Long live Lord, Seoul is about 360 miles away from the west coast and [-] miles away from the east coast. How should we attack?" Zheng Zhilong asked a little depressed.

"It's not about siege, just fight casually."

Zhu Youjian laughed loudly, and immediately began to send orders: "Let my [-] iron troops land on the east coast and push them all the way across. Then, let's build a harbor city on the west coast."

The emperor's decree was naturally carried out directly.

Zheng Zhilong heard a secret sigh.

This idiot emperor doesn't understand marching and fighting at all, so how can he just fight?

What the King of Zhenhai didn't know was that Zhu Youjian knew exactly what the [-] 'Youjian Army' hole cards were.

All new muskets, new artillery.

In name, it is an army of [-].

In fact, there are less than 8000 field troops, and the rest are almost all supply troops and engineers.

In addition, he still holds a secret weapon in his hand...

This is equivalent to a medium-sized heavy armored army, fighting a group of Koryo soldiers with bows and arrows. If they can still be defeated, then let them stay on the Koryo Peninsula to eat shit!

"Let [-] troops land on the island secretly."

"Choose a few harbor cities at random, and bombard them with a few cannons first."

"In name, I went on an expedition to Goryeo. As a result, after spending more than two months on Kuwu Island, some people in the court were ready to move. If Wei Zhongxian and Qian Qianyi were not suppressing it, what would have happened? moth.

Then let them see that I am really on an expedition to Korea...haha. "

Zheng Zhilong bowed to accept the order, and went down to carry out the order.

"Ai Concubine Anna, Concubine Catherine, come here, I have a few new words that I haven't recited yet, you two help me lip-sync."

"Oh, this Tsarist Russian, the tongue keeps moving when pronouncing it, please help me correct it..."

……

Zheng Zhilong returned to the podium and began to issue a series of orders.

Let [-] veterans land on the east coast first.

All that's left is to find a few coastal targets and beat them up a few times.

As for which city to attack, it still needs to be carefully selected. If the cannons of the battleship can directly bombard it, it is necessary to choose those more important ports to attack.

Otherwise, the cannon is not worth the candle to kill mosquitoes.

So, soon, two harbor cities were selected——

Busan Port, Ulsan Port.

These two seaport cities, called the city, are actually two large natural seaports, which can be regarded as the second most prosperous port cities in Koryo at that time.

Among them, Busan Port is also the most powerful naval base of the King of Korea.

"Just hit these two places."

Zheng Zhilong rubbed the center of his brows, with a look of helplessness on his face.

The idiot emperor said that he would let him fight casually, but as a courtier, if he believes the emperor's ambiguity, he is probably not far from the ice pot and cold stove.

If you want to fight, just fight hard.

"Send me an order to order the small ironclad battleship to go to Busan Port to explore the way, and after marking the route map, you can return!"

"Everyone is on standby!"

"Get ready for battle and attack Busan Port with all your strength!"

……

Just when Zhu Youjian, the idiot emperor, and Zheng Zhilong, the king of Zhenhai, decided to bombard Pusan ​​Port and Ulsan Port a few times to enjoy themselves and put on a show, in Seoul four or five hundred miles away, Mr. Li, King of Korea, was waiting for several distinguished guests .

In the depths of the palace, there is a three-story attic surrounded by water, which looks inconspicuous from the outside.

However, when those distinguished guests followed the eunuch with them through a secret passage three or four hundred feet deep and entered the attic, their eyes could not help but shine.

This looks like an ordinary attic, but the inside is so magnificent.

Moreover, the distinguished guests were surprised to find that most of the walls, doors and windows of this so-called attic were made of fine steel.

It turned out to be a steel fortress!
"King Goryeo is such a big hand."

"In my own palace, I built such a strong fortress, haha."

Several distinguished guests didn't seem to be very respectful to the King of Korea. They sat on red sandalwood chairs and drank tea while teasing a few words.

Er, the King of Korea came out.

"Haha, General Zu, General Wu, and some Lord Baylor, I've kept everyone waiting for a long time!"
