On 20 April, after Zhao Ming's army occupied Ganghwa Island, he sent people back to Jiangdong, and ordered Chen Mingyu to send a group of craftsmen, as well as a batch of grain and ordnance, and prepare to send ships to transfer the population to Tuntian, Taiwan.After Zhao Ming occupied Ganghwa Island, Koreans immediately came to take refuge.For a long time, Chinese civilization has been a beacon of the world, which has been worshiped by small neighboring countries.At this time, although the Ming Dynasty declined, in the hearts of many Koreans, they were still full of worship for the Ming Dynasty, and regarded the Ming Dynasty as the orthodoxy to maintain the justice of the world and belong to the righteous side.Under the cultural export, the vast majority of Koreans are proud of using Chinese characters and learning Confucian classics, and feel that they are superior to others and look down on the surrounding barbarians because they are highly sinicized.This is just like the export of Western culture, many people who accept the poison of Western ideas feel that they are superior.At this time, the Ming Dynasty was beaten militarily, but in terms of cultural and ideological export, it was still the hegemon of East Asia, and the United States in the seventeenth century had many shrewd elements in Korea, Japan, and Annam.The Ming army captured Ganghwa Island, captured seven or eight hundred Korean soldiers, and Lin Qingzhi, the leading general, learned that he was captured by the Ming army, and was not surprised and rejoiced, and told Zhao Ming about the situation in North Korea like pouring beans.Zhao Ming further figured out the situation in Korea, Seoul was not garrisoned by Qing troops, only more than 7,000 Korean troops were stationed, and they were commanded by Marshal Jiang Gongji.The 7,000 Korean troops were not taken seriously by Zhao Ming, so they did not wait for the battle to end, so they sent a messenger back to Jiangdong and directly notified Chen Mingyu to transfer ships to transport people.In the early morning, a battalion of infantry and a battalion of cavalry, after a full meal, quickly advanced along the banks of the Han River.Although Zhao Ming did not take the Koreans seriously, he still came out with cavalry to open his eyes for the army, so as not to capsize in the gutter and lose his reputation.The dignified Zhao Dashuai, if he is defeated by the Koreans, I am afraid that it will be enough for the sticks to boast for hundreds of years in the future, and Zhao Ming can't stand this shame, so the 6,000 Ming army, on the way to Seoul, did not dare to be careless.At this time, on the bank of the Han River, there were densely packed with soldiers wearing armor and resisting guns, the battle flag fluttered in the river breeze, the cavalry galloped on the flanks, and the army was mighty and magnificent.Under the banner, Zhao Ming sat proudly on horseback, and Lin Qingzhi and other surrendered Koreans were briefing him on the situation in Seoul.Zhao Ming listened carefully and got useful news from it.Although North Korea has always cherished the Ming Dynasty, it is also a fact that they still consider the interests of North Korea and their own life after all, and they are not really loyal to the Ming Dynasty to the point where they can die for their parents' state.Of course, the Han people in the Ming Dynasty can't do this, but Zhao Ming hopes that the Koreans in the future can do this.Therefore, after capturing Seoul and purging the pro-Qing faction within the small Korean court, Zhao Ming did not completely return power to the Joseon king, but wanted to establish a Korean regime under his control.This requires Zhao Ming to learn more about the internal situation in North Korea and see which elite elements can be promoted.At this time, Zhao Ming listened to Lin Qingzhi and found that there were really a lot of elite elements in North Korea, and it was easy to understand that in addition to the Ming Dynasty saving North Korea, it was the King of Korea who was afraid of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and was worried that he would be annexed by the Manchu Qing Dynasty or become a puppet completely, so he consciously supported the Yili faction and used the Korean people to be generally pro-Ming to fight against the pro-Qing faction."
Report!"
A horse came at a gallop.Zhao Ming was learning about the situation in North Korea, and a sentry rode against the team and galloped towards him.Seeing this, Zhao Ming pulled the reins of the horse, pulled the war horse to the side, controlled the war horse, and the sentry horse ran to him, turned over and dismounted, and reported on one knee: "Qiqi Marshal, fifteen miles ahead, there are a large number of North Korean troops in formation, blocking the way of our army!"
Zhao Ming raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and Huo Jianyan, the general next to him, couldn't help but scold: "Isn't this a dead urge?"
They still dare to go out of the city to fight!
”Many of the generals were surprised, and at the same time felt that they had been insulted and ridiculed.Lin Qingzhi said: "Guogong, presumably the pro-Qing faction in Seoul, worried that the king would be the internal response, took the initiative to open the city to welcome Guogong, so he was forced to go out of the city to block Guogong and try to defeat Guogong outside the city. ”Judging from what Zhao Ming knew, the king of Joseon and the ministers of the Yili faction in the city were all pro-Ming.If Zhao Ming's army arrives in the city, there is the king of Korea and the minister of the Yili faction as the internal response, and he may act as the internal response and open the city gate at any time, and although the pro-Qing faction is close to the Manchu Qing, after all, it is the minister of Korea, they can kill the minister of the Yili faction, but they cannot kill the pro-Ming king of Korea.Once the Ming army reached Seoul, the Korean gentry would inevitably respond in groups, and the pro-Qing faction did not hold on to the foundation of the city.Therefore, these pro-Qing factions sent troops to block them to the west of Nancheng, hoping to repel Zhao Ming, so that the Joseon king and the Yili faction did not dare to act rashly.Zhao Ming frowned and said, "How many soldiers and horses does the other party have?"
”"The lowly ones watched from a distance, and saw that the other party was arrayed in the wilderness, and there should be six or seven thousand!"
Sentinel Rider reports.Lin Qingzhi exclaimed, "If that's the case, the Imperial Camp Hall Army can be said to have poured out." ”Zhao Ming sneered when he heard this, "It's just right, Ben Shuai just broke it in one battle, saving a lot of trouble." ”On the banks of the Hanshui River, 7,000 Korean troops set up in formation on the wilderness, preparing to block the landing Ming army.The river wind was howling, blowing the flags and hunting, like the spears and dogs of the forest intertwined.With the Korean saber and shield in front and the spear in the center, a large number of archers stood in the rear, watching the figure of the Ming army appear in the distance.Under the big flag, Jiang Gongjian, the marshal of the Korean capital, looked back at the more than ten rocket vehicles in the formation, and then raised his head and looked into the distance, showing disdain in his eyes.Jiang Gongjian is the brother of Jiang Gonglie, the marshal of the Korean capital who surrendered to the Manchu Qing Dynasty in Sarhu, and unlike many elite elements in Korea, he has seen the fierce Eight Banners soldiers, the appearance of defeating the Ming army, and the combat power of the Eight Banners in his heart has long been a fine element, full of contempt for the decadent Ming Dynasty.Zhao Ming led a large army to occupy Ganghwa Island, but the Koreans did not know that it was Zhao Zamao, who had defeated the Manchus, and led the troops, and only thought that an ordinary Ming army suddenly killed Korea."
Marshal, the Ming army is coming!"
A North Korean general next to him pointed to the Ming army coming from afar.Jiang Gongjian glanced at the generals disdainfully, and sneered: "Hmph, before dusk, Ben Shuai will be able to end the battle." ”As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the Ming army, only to see that in the dense crowd, one side was eye-catching, he looked at it, his face couldn't help but change slightly, and he hurriedly asked: "Who can see what is written on it?"
”The Korean general with good vision next to him squinted his eyes and said: "The governor of the Ming Dynasty, the governor of the five armies, the right governor of the palace, the prince Shaobao, and the prince Zhao!"
”Jiang Gongjian's body instantly became agitated, and he scolded with a shocked face: "Ah!
Xiba!
