【Today's second update is delivered!】
The next day, Li Jue finally calmed down. The gift seemed to have not been found. Li Jue still looked shameless and looked a little unwilling to accept it. Li Zong's face was not very good. However, Zhang Zhun's serious business could not be delayed. There was no way, Li Jue had to sit down obediently and attend the highest-level meeting.
In the side hall of Pumen Temple, the two sides held final consultations on various matters of the joint command center. Before Zhang Zhun arrived, Lu Xiangsheng and Yang Tinglin had had many negotiations with the North Korean side, and the bottom line of both sides had basically been determined. Zhang Zhun's arrival only formally determined the content of the negotiations between the two sides.
The meeting determined that the two sides formally established the Sino-North Korea Joint Command to uniformly command the Hu Ben Army and the North Korean army to fight. The Chinese supreme commander was Zhang Jun, and the person in charge was deputy commander Lu Xiangsheng. The supreme commander of the North Korean king Li Zong was also appointed, and the person in charge was deputy commander Feng Pingjun Li Jue.
The main task of the Joint Command is of course to eliminate the Tartars. The first military operation after the establishment of the Joint Command was to launch an attack in the direction of Tieshan, destroy the Tartars stationed in Tieshan, and the Korean rebels who cooperated with the Tartars. After destroying the Tartars in Tieshan, they will continue to attack in the direction of Liaoyang and continue to eliminate the Tartars.
After all the Tartars are eliminated, this joint command will not be disbanded immediately, it will exist according to the actual situation. Simply put, the Sino-Korean coalition may have to undertake new combat tasks. As for what the new combat tasks are, it depends on the future combat plan of the Hu Ben Army. What is certain is that if you enter the ***, there will definitely be a joint command in Nanyang.
After conquering Tieshan, the Joint Command had another very important task, which was to control the Changbai Mountain area. The timber produced in the Changbai Mountain area was urgently needed by the Hu Ben Navy. To achieve this goal, the Sino-North Korea coalition forces must control the Dingliao Youwei (now Fengcheng City, Liaoning Province) as soon as possible. This is the core hinterland of Changbai Mountain and the gathering and dispersing place for wood.
Of course, before the formal attack is launched, the matter of the North Korean surrender faction must be dealt with first. These surrender factions, feeling that the situation is not good, all ran to the north one after another. They have joined with the two main rebel forces Shen Qiyuan, Zheng Taijie and others. According to the estimates of the Joint Command, once these people are attacked, they are very likely to retreat to the Changbai Mountain Mountains.
On the east side of Changbai Mountain, there are a series of "Dianbao", including Dadibao, Changdibao, Yongdibao, Xindibao, Kuandibao, Kuandibao, etc., which were built by the Ming army to prevent the Tatars from entering North Korea. Among them, the most important one is Kuandibao (now Kuandian County, Liaoning Province). Zhang Zhun estimated that once the Korean rebels noticed the situation was unfavorable, they would lurk in Changbai Mountain, and the location of Kuandibao was the best place to hide.
"The Kuan Diebao must be controlled!"
Zhang Zhun made a clear statement.
Kuandian Fort is on the edge of Changbai Mountain. If the Huben Army wants to cut down timber, it will be easily plagued by these rebels. For the safety of the loggers, the entire Changbai Mountain must be sorted out. In other words, these Korean rebels must be cleaned up.
The ultimate goal of the coalition's attack was Liaoyang. The ultimate goal of the Hu Ben Army's attack from the south and west was Liaoyang. After the three armies converged in Liaoyang, they quickly headed north and attacked Chenyang together. It is estimated that by that time, whether the Tatars still have the strength to defend Chenyang will be a major issue. If it goes well, the Tatars might take the initiative to give up Chenyang.
For specific battles, Zhang Zhun entrusts Lu Xiangsheng. It should not be very difficult to eliminate the five Niulu Tartars. This is also a process for Lu Xiangsheng to be familiar with the battles of the Hu Ben Army. After he slowly integrates into the Hu Ben Army family, there will be a lot of battles in the future.
After confirming the general policy, the two sides signed a formal agreement. Zhang Zhun and Li Zong signed on behalf of both sides. Originally, such formal gratitude should have been submitted by both sides. However, the Hu Ben Army is not yet ready to accept the letter of nationality, so the two sides signed an ordinary agreement.
After the agreement was signed, Zhang Zhun went to inspect the Korean Imperial Guards accompanied by Li Jue, Li Hao, Lu Xiangsheng and Yang Tinglin. The original organization of the Korean Imperial Guards was 36,000 people. In fact, they were not satisfied with the organization, mainly because they did not have enough weapons and equipment. After receiving a large number of weapons from Zhang Zhun, the Imperial Guards gradually became full.
When Zhang Zhun arrived, the North Korean Imperial Guard conducted a multi-item performance. Among them, what Zhang Zhun was most concerned about was the three-stage shooting training. Judging from the live performance, the three-stage shooting of the Imperial Guard was not much stronger than the Ming army. If they encountered the attack of the Tartars, they were afraid they would not have much effect. The key is that they had to rely on the Hu Ben Army itself.
The weapons and equipment that Zhang Zhun gave to the North Koreans were all stolen from the Ming army. They were of a lot of quantity, very cheap, but their performance was not particularly good. However, for the North Koreans, such weapons were enough for them to improve several levels. The three-stage shooting was not powerful, but the training intensity was not enough.
In the evening, when he returned to Chuandeng Temple, Zhang Zhun sent someone to invite Lu Xiangsheng and Yang Tinglin. This trip to North Korea, Zhang Zhun actually came and went in a hurry. He could not stay in North Korea for too long, and there were too many things waiting for him to do. After he left North Korea, the North Korean affairs could only entrust Lu Xiangsheng and Yang Tinglin.
"Mr. Jiutai, Mr. Boxiang, please sit down."
Zhang Zhun said sincerely.
"What are the instructions of the Governor?"
Yang Tinglin asked respectfully.
"I'm going back tomorrow."
"For North Korea, please ask you two."
Zhang Zhun said slowly.
Yang Tinglin said solemnly: "Don't worry, Governor, we will do our best to do everything well."
Lu Xiangsheng also said solemnly: "With the love of the Governor, I, Lu Xiangsheng, will definitely fight to kill the Tartars, avenge the people of the Northern Zhili, and the entire Ming Dynasty."
Zhang Zhun nodded, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said slowly: "I believe that the matter of the Joint Command will not be difficult for you. I came to you to talk about something else. What do you think of North Korea?"
Yang Tinglin hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "North Korea deeply admires our Chinese culture. The two countries have a long history. They are a country of friendship and friendship."
Zhang Zhun slowly put down the teacup and said meaningfully: "Have you ever thought about including North Korea in our Ming Dynasty?"
Yang Tinglin was slightly stunned and subconsciously turned his head to look at Lu Xiangsheng. Lu Xiangsheng's face looked solemn, without any expression, only a little strange in his deep eyes.
Zhang Zhun smiled softly and said slowly: "Don't be nervous, you two, I'm not going to annex North Korea, I just want to know what you really think."
Yang Tinglin pondered for a moment and said cautiously: "Governor General, North Korea has poor mountains and bad waters, undulating mountains and poor land. Even if it is included in our territory, it will not be of great benefit. However, it has been a bit unprofitable for many years of wars and losing troops and generals."
Lu Xiangsheng said solemnly: "It's not very cost-effective."
Zhang Zhun nodded gently and said slowly: "I don't agree with directly including North Korea in our territory. The reason is basically the same as the two of you think. However, we must strengthen our control over North Korea so that it truly becomes a vassal state of our country."
Yang Tinglin said, "The Governor is right."
Lu Xiangsheng frowned and said, "Lu Jiutai doesn't understand what the governor meant, so please make clear."
Zhang Zhun said meaningfully: "There are many types of subordinate countries, and it may not be just military containment, but cultural containment can also achieve the goal. The two think that in cultural exchanges, are we shortcomings?"
Yang Tinglin looked at Lu Xiangsheng and felt that he couldn't figure out Zhang Zhun's thoughts, so he had to say tactfully: "Boxiang is stupid, please let the governor make it clear."
Zhang Zhun said in a whim: "Have you ever thought about letting North Korea send a large number of international students to our country to learn Chinese culture? Or, we send a large number of teachers to North Korea to teach them Chinese? Teach them Chinese culture? If we are willing, we can immigrate a large number of North Korea, or let North Korea immigrate a large number of mainland China."
Yang Tinglin frowned and said, "What do you mean by sir..."
Zhang Zhun said deeply: "Cultural assimilation is more important than regional forced mergers. The current cultural foundation of the North Koreans can almost be said to be without, and we can start from this aspect."
Yang Tinglin showed a deep thought.
Zhang Zhun stood up and said proudly: "All China has always had a little covetousness towards the Korean Peninsula. Emperor Yang of Sui, Emperor Taizong of Tang, Emperor Gaozong of Tang and others have repeatedly sent troops to conquer. In fact, there is no need to do this. North Korea is a place without roots. What we want to remove is their roots and then replace them with mine."
Yang Tinglin said in confusion: "Governor, can you explain it a little more clearly?"
Zhang Zhun said slowly: "What did Qin Shihuang do after unifying the six kingdoms?"
Yang Tinglin subconsciously said: "The car is the same track, the book is the same text, and the business is the same."
Zhang Zhun nodded and said deeply: "Mr. Boxiang, North Korea can do this too."
Yang Tinglin wanted to speak but stopped. He had already grasped Zhang Zhun's meaning, but he was a little worried whether Zhang Zhun's approach was really effective. In his opinion, it was more appropriate to directly garrison troops in North Korea. Fortunately, the joint command center that Zhang Zhun tinkered with was actually already garrison. As long as the Hu Ben Army was stationed in North Korea, I would like to thank the Koreans not to do anything.
Zhang Zhun said slowly: "Don't just use national power to suppress North Korea, as this will cause resistance from the North Koreans. What we need to do is to maintain a certain amount of pressure, and then make the North Koreans admire our culture as much as possible, use our words, use our language, use our policies and regulations, and ultimately, have a strong sense of identity."
Lu Xiangsheng said solemnly: "Governor General is very good. A conversation with you is better than reading ten years of books. However, Jiutai believes that garrison is necessary. Without garrison, the Koreans may not be willing to be on the same track with our car, the same writing, and the same friendship."
Zhang Zhun said with a smile: "Our army will be stationed in North Korea for a long time."
Yang Tinglin said with some concern: "This is not enough, right?"
Zhang Zhun nodded and said, "Of course this is not enough. The role of the garrison is short-lived and cannot last. On the contrary, cultural assimilation is long-lasting. As long as this is done well, the sense of identity between both sides will be much stronger."
"Human ideas and concepts will change. In a relatively closed environment, people's concepts will change faster. The Korean Peninsula is a relatively closed place. We must make full use of this advantage and instill all the various ideas, cultures, and rules and regulations of our Han people into their minds."
"Maybe fifty years or a hundred years later, the Koreans will believe that they and us are actually from the same place, but they were separated later. Our myths and legends are the myths and legends of Korea. We were from Pangu to create the world and Nuwa repaired the sky, and the Koreans are the same. Since they are splitting up, there is a possibility of reunion."
"I just said that North Korea has no roots. Our China is their roots. We must pay attention to this point. Our cultural propaganda and our archaeological operations must work hard on this. We must do everything we can to prove that the North Koreans are part of the Chinese and are our Chinese people."
"Don't worry that North Koreans get our technology and culture. North Korea is full of mountainous areas, what ability do they have to compete for the world with us? Looking around the world, countries that can compete for the world with our China have not yet appeared. We have been bullied and humiliated all the time, not because the enemy is too strong, but because we are too incompetent."
"Look at the current court, if we work harder, cheer up and be more honest, can we defeat the Tartars? Of course, it is possible! The problem is that we are not working hard enough, cheer up and be honest enough! The military spending of one hundred taels is less than five taels on the battlefield! How can we not defeat such a battle?"
"We should not blame the Tartars for being cunning, cruel, and difficult to deal with. In fact, we Han people can be more cunning, more cruel and difficult to deal with than them. No matter how great the Tartars are, are they as capable as the Mongol Empire? As a result, the Mongol Empire was driven to the horizon by us?"
"History proves that as long as we manage our own affairs and keep our own strength, no one dares to provoke us. Do the Tartars dare to provoke the Hu Ben Army now? Don't dare! Why? Because the Hu Ben Army is stronger than him! If he provokes the Hu Ben Army, the Hu Ben Army will beat him immediately! If he doesn't want to be beaten, he will squat in the corner and draw circles!"
