Chapter 427 Sending the God of Plague
Guo Zhiyuan said, "Why did Lord Park say this? My Ming Dynasty and North Korea are friendly and friendly, shouldn't we communicate with each other? Don't worry, I won't want your war horses for nothing. I will buy them for money. I can also exchange the drawings of the tortoise shell ship with my Ming Dynasty warship. It doesn't matter if you don't want them, so keep consuming them..."
Park Dingji was completely speechless by Guo Zhiyuan's "shameful skin". He was so angry that he left on the spot. When he went back to report to Guanghaijun, Guanghaijun was also very angry. Guo Zhiyuan was simply a rogue. It would be fine if he refused to leave, but he even quarreled!
It took another half a month, and the Spring Festival was almost over, and Guo Zhiyuan still had no intention of leaving. The person responsible for monitoring Guo Zhiyuan's fleet in the Dehe Islands outside the sea reported that since the Xin army had actually started to build houses and fortifications on the island, it seemed that he was really ready to stay on the island and could not leave. Guanghaijun could no longer spend it and asked the court officials to discuss how to send Guo Zhiyuan, the "plague god", away.
Guo Zhiyuan has not been idle these days, and has always asked Li Dan to secretly make friends with the Korean ministers who are interested in the Ming Dynasty. The money is really given away. Therefore, during the negotiations, many Korean ministers helped Guo Zhiyuan speak, saying that it is nothing to agree to Guo Zhiyuan's request. North Korea pays tribute to the Ming Dynasty every year. Guo Zhiyuan uses the way to collect the retreat of the Later Jin army for the Ming Dynasty, and it is also necessary to help some war horses, not to mention that Guo Zhiyuan is willing to spend money to buy it.
As for Guo Zhiyuan's drawings for the "Tortoise Shell Ship" were indeed a bit too much. However, since the Japanese invasion in the Iron Chen Dynasty, Japan was severely damaged and he dared not come to invade North Korea. The Korean waters are now very peaceful, and the Korean navy is useless. The drawings of the "Tortoise Shell Ship" are almost wormed in the inner warehouse. It's nothing to copy a set for Guo Zhiyuan. Moreover, Guo Zhiyuan is willing to exchange the drawings of the Ming warship, so North Korea is not too disadvantageous.
Now Guanghaijun just wants to send Guo Zhiyuan away as soon as possible. Seeing that the ministers did not object, he happened to take advantage of the situation and agreed to Guo Zhiyuan's three requests.
Guo Zhiyuan's requirements for selecting guides and war horses were very strict. He insisted on choosing by himself. He was picking and slandering the North Koreans for half a month, so he was delayed until the first month before officially setting off.
Finally, he was able to send Guo Zhiyuan away, and Guanghai Jun felt relieved. He had always been ill and did not show up. He also led the civil and military ministers to the dock to see Guo Zhiyuan off. Although he was so angry that he was so angry that he still looked reluctant on the surface. He held Guo Zhiyuan's hand and said hypocritically: "Take care all the way, I look forward to your triumphant return in Hanyang!..."
Guo Zhiyuan looked at Guang Haijun's hypocritical appearance and was secretly amused, and said deliberately: "I have disturbed Guang Haijun these days. If Guo can win by chance, he will definitely come back to report the victory to Guang Haijun!"
Guang Haijun was so scared that he shivered, and waved his hands awkwardly and said, "No need, no need..."
In order not to alert the enemy and arouse the vigilance of the Later Jin Dynasty, Guo Zhiyuan chose this time to first take the sea route along the Korean coastline to land on Yizhou (now Shinyiju, North Korea), in North Korea, and then cross the Sino-North Korea border to Andong (now Dandong region of Liaoning). This route coincides with the People's Liberation Army's route to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea, but one is against the trend and the other is positive.
Standing by the Yalu River, Guo Zhiyuan was also full of emotion. In the original history, time and space, the People's Liberation Army crossed the Yalu River to fight with great courage in order to defend the Chinese nation from being violated by the US imperialists. After traveling through time, he also came here to change the fate of the Chinese nation. He hoped that he could rewrite history this time and let the Chinese nation suffer less hardships.
Thinking of this, Guo Zhiyuan felt proud and waved his hand hard to the soldiers of the Xinxing Army behind him, "Build a floating bridge and cross the river!"
After crossing the Yalu River, you officially entered the territory of Andong. Echizen Guo Zhiyuan had also visited Dandong and was deeply impressed by this beautiful city. However, it is still a barren land, which made Guo Zhiyuan unable to find it at all. Echizen's beautiful Dandong, especially after the Later Jin occupied this place, adopted the policy of deciding the border, building willow branches at the border gate of the Riverside and the border gate of the Phoenix City. It is prohibited to farm, animal husbandry, fishing, hunting, logging, and mining in areas outside the border walls, so the entire Andong area is even more desolate and there is almost no people.
However, this would be of great help to Guo Zhiyuan's concealment. After crossing the river, Guo Zhiyuan did not rush to advance, but ordered the entire army to set up camps on the spot, quarrying, logging and building simple fortifications. Of course, Sun Zhiyong was the one who had these things, and Li Guo helped them to arrange them without Guo Zhiyuan's excessive concern.
Guo Zhiyuan had asked the craftsmen to make a simple sand table based on the description of the terrain of Liaodong by a hundred Korean guides. He was thinking about how to capture the retreat of the Later Jin army, Sun Zhiyong and Li Guozhu came in at the same time. When they saw their eager eyes, Guo Zhiyuan smiled and knew that they were here to take the initiative to ask for the battle!
Before the two of them could speak, Guo Zhiyuan waved his hand and pointed to the sand table and said, "Zhiyong, I will leave you 10,000 yuan for Xinxin Army. You must help me guard the cross-strait ferry crossings and pontoon bridges. In addition, you must build as many simple houses as possible and be prepared to accept prisoners and refugees. Can you do it?..."
Sun Zhiyong looked dizzy when he heard this. Who wouldn't want to rush to the front line? Unexpectedly, Guo Zhiyuan asked him to stay. Li Guozhu was overjoyed when he heard this. He thought that Sun Zhiyong had made great contributions when he smashed Qin Shou and attempted to replace Guo Zhiyuan to control Dongfan, and must have been valued by Guo Zhiyuan even more. He thought that the front line would definitely be out of the way, but he picked up a big leak, so he patted Sun Zhiyong's shoulder with joy and said, "Zhiyong, it's okay, I'll cut half of the Tartar heads at that time, and your contribution will be indispensable..."
Guo Zhiyuan glared at Li Guozhu, who was happy and looked at him, patted Sun Zhiyong on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Zhiyong, for generals, we must first conquer the victory and defeat. When we go to capture the rear of the Later Jin army, we must first protect our own retreat. You are calm, so I leave the rear of the Xin army to you to guard. With you, I can feel at ease to capture the rear of the Later Jin army!..."
Sun Zhiyong was refreshed and then he gave Guo Zhiyuan a clean and neat salute and shouted: "Yes! Ensure that the task is completed!"
Chapter completed!
