Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 577 The general who cheated my family?
A few days later, the army led by Matsudaira Nobutsuna arrived at the ruins of Seoul as scheduled.The reason for this is not only because of the marching route that the early scouts found out, but also because there were basically no battles along the way. Even if they encountered active North Koreans, they would all run away after hearing the news, and did not dare to fight the Japanese army at all. , It didn't delay the Japanese army's itinerary at all.

He was very satisfied with this. Along the way, he kept "yelling" and even Fan Wencheng, who didn't talk to him, could feel his mood even if he didn't understand his usual Japanese muttering.

Standing on the top of the city of Seoul, looking around and looking at the grain fields in the distance, he is even more satisfied with the fact that they can be used after a little tidying up.

Seeing Matsudaira Nobutsuna pointing and saying something in Japanese to his boss, for some reason, Fan Wencheng felt a little lonely.Suddenly, he felt the need to learn the Japanese language.Whether it is to prevent the bad luck of the Qing Dynasty, to hold the thigh of the Japanese country, or as a representative of the Qing Dynasty, it is necessary to deal with the Japanese country for a long time.

Thinking of this, he took a chance, stepped forward to Nobutsuna Matsudaira with a smile and praised: "I never thought that your army would be destroyed all the way and reach Seoul so quickly. It's really gratifying!"

No matter what, people in flower sedan chairs carry people, and it is always right to offer a bunch of flattery as the opening remark.

However, Matsudaira Nobutsuna raised his head and glanced at him, then turned to look at the Han River. Although he still smiled, his words lost their warmth and said: "There are almost no Koreans along the way, let alone Akito. Well, if that’s the case, how can we talk about destroying ancient things?”

When Fan Wencheng heard this, he was a little embarrassed, as if he didn't like this flattery, but he was also thick-skinned, so he immediately put this embarrassment behind him, and immediately followed Matsudaira Nobutsuna's intention and replied: "That's right, This Korea has been swept back and forth many times by our Qing Dynasty, so naturally there are no Koreans left. As for the Ming people, they were restrained by our Qing Dynasty and did not have any extra troops stationed in North Korea. This time, your army must not have stabilized North Korea. questionable!"

This time, Matsudaira Nobutsuna nodded, everything was as expected.Thinking of this, he said happily again: "Mr. Wen Cheng, look here, how many farmers do you need to recultivate these grain fields, enough for the army's food needs?"

Fan Wencheng was overjoyed when he heard him consulting himself, and quickly used all his abilities to analyze Matsudaira Nobutsuna from all aspects, and finally concluded that just how much manpower is needed.He understands that it is impossible for the peasants of the Wa country to come to North Korea all at once. If the minimum number of people can be obtained, it will be easier for the Wa country to make arrangements. Therefore, the estimation of the number of people should be as accurate as possible.

After answering, Fan Wencheng said with congratulations: "The land around Seoul is fertile. After the grain fields are reclaimed, it must be enough for the army. By the way, there is also a lot of land in the north, all the way to Pyongyang. Fertile grain fields, these are unclaimed lands, as long as your country makes use of them, not to mention an army of 20, but an army of 30 or [-], I believe there will be no problem."

Matsudaira Nobutsuna smiled when he heard that, isn't this what he and the general expected?

Just as he was about to say something, suddenly, a Japanese army leader rushed over from the ruins of the city, holding something in his hand.This situation was a bit unusual, and it immediately attracted his attention, and he said nothing.

Fan Wencheng also saw it and was a little curious about what the Japanese leader found in the city?Generally speaking, Seoul has been raided many times by the Qing army, so there should be nothing important or valuable left?
I saw that the Japanese leader quickly went to the top of the city, panting and reporting to Matsudaira Nobutsuna: "My lord, I found this in the city!"

After finishing speaking, he presented a long wooden sign with both hands, and it could be seen that one end was inserted into the soil.

Nobuzuna Matsudaira took it curiously, and immediately frowned.Seeing this, Fan Wencheng stretched his neck slightly and saw that on the wooden sign in his hand were written Chinese characters: the location of the government office of Han County, North Korea Province of the Ming Dynasty, the fifth day of December in the 17th year of Chongzhen, Ming Dynasty.

"What's going on here?" Matsudaira Nobuzuna asked Fan Wencheng a little unhappy, "Didn't you say that North Korea is a land without owner? How did it become a province of the Ming Dynasty?"

Although the Japanese decided to go to war with the Ming Dynasty, if they could start the war later, it would be better to start the war later.

If North Korea is a land without a master, based on the Japanese understanding of the Central Plains Dynasty, if they want to send troops, the ministers in the court will quarrel first, and if they finally send troops, it will inevitably be delayed for a long time.However, once North Korea became a province of the Ming Dynasty, as soon as the Japanese army appeared, there must be only one opinion in the court of the Ming Dynasty, at least more unified than before.This situation is not what the Japanese army wants to see!

Fan Wencheng himself was also curious, and couldn't help but wondered: "Could this sign be a trick played by the Koreans here to scare away your army?"

Seeing that Matsudaira Nobutsuna seemed a little unhappy when he heard this, he quickly added: "The villain is just analyzing the facts. After all, when the Japanese army attacked Korea in the past, they were repelled by the Ming Dynasty. Those remaining Koreans , I definitely don’t want your army to occupy North Korea, so I guess I can naturally think of this intimidation strategy. However, I believe that adults will not care about this at all. This bad idea of ​​the North Koreans is of no use at all. "

This was well-founded. Matsudaira Nobutsuna nodded after hearing this, but he still frowned and ordered his subordinates: "Immediately search a hundred miles around to see if there are any traces of Akito. If a Korean is caught, we must He was tortured and asked for information from some wise people to see if this sign was set up by a wise person or was caused by North Koreans!"

"Hi!" His men agreed and went to work.

Then Nobuzuna Matsudaira sent an order again, and the army began to camp and rest, and no longer went north.One is to stabilize the rule here and drive those annoying North Korean monkeys out of the mountains to eliminate them.Otherwise, it is not what he wants to see when he jumps out to threaten the rear of the army.

In addition, the army's food also had to wait for the navy to transport it from the Han River to Seoul along the coast.If it were transported by land alone with the army, the food consumption would be too much.

Two days later, in addition to some Japanese troops who began to search and suppress Koreans, another group of Japanese troops began to clean up grain fields.

These soldiers of the Japanese army were farmers before they joined the army. Relatively speaking, it was actually their job to play with the fields.All of a sudden, the surrounding area of ​​Seoul was full of Japanese people working in a very enthusiastic manner.

Matsudaira Nobutsuna looked at all this, and he didn't care about the hidden worries brought about by that wooden sign.Even if the Ming Dynasty knew that it occupied North Korea, so what?They are controlled by the Qing Dynasty, how many troops can they allocate to North Korea, and they have to go as far as Seoul?When they really come over, their side has already been fully prepared and their foothold has been firmly established.When that time comes, the Ming Kingdom will come from afar, and if they want to fight, they can fight!
At this time, suddenly, Matsudaira Nobuzuna saw a fast rider galloping from the south again. At that speed, it was a desperate run, and he knew something urgent at a glance.

What will happen in the future?When Matsudaira Nobuzuna saw it, he couldn't help frowning. If it was said that the extermination of the Koreans was not going well, it seemed that there was no need to rush into this situation.

After waiting patiently for a while, after seeing who was coming, Matsudaira Nobutsuna couldn't help being a little surprised and said: "Isn't this going to deliver food to the Qing Dynasty? Why did you come here?"

Because it has something to do with the Qing Dynasty, he said it in the official words of the Ming Dynasty.

When Fan Wencheng heard it, he immediately had a bad feeling.But, thinking about it carefully, it doesn't make sense!

In order to guard against the Ming army's troubles, when we first discussed this batch of food, it was as far away as the Ezo Sea.The activities of the Ming army were limited to Zhenjiang Fort at most.What's more, since the Geng Zhongming incident, the Ming Dynasty's focus has shifted to Gaizhou and Haizhou, not to mention Zhenjiang Fort. Even near Jinzhou, the activities of the Ming army have decreased.

Therefore, Fan Wencheng ruled out the possibility of the Ming army making trouble, and asked Matsudaira Nobuzuna with a frown, "Could it be that there was a storm, so the grain could not be delivered?"

Thinking of this, he felt reasonable, and added reasoning: "So the Qing Dynasty didn't receive food, and the war is tight?"

Hearing this, Matsudaira Nobutsuna thought of Inordai's anxious look a few days ago, and couldn't help but believe it.

So, he frowned a little. If this is the case, the pressure on the Qing Dynasty will be great.On the Japanese side, do you still want to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight?I'm afraid it's not the tiger fighting, but the tiger bullying the sick cat!

Just as they were guessing, the galloping boss had already arrived in front of Matsudaira Nobutsuna, panting and complaining.

Fan Wencheng on the side was watching. Although he couldn't understand, he saw Matsudaira Nobutsuna's face suddenly changed, and he communicated with that person quickly, including the Japanese people around him.Suddenly, Fan Wencheng's bad feeling just now emerged again.

Before he could think about anything, suddenly, he saw Matsudaira Nobutsuna staring at him, and shouted with a grim expression: "What is the fighting power of the Qing Dynasty? It doesn't mean that it is invincible in Liaodong and invincible in field battles. lost it?"

As soon as he heard this, Fan Wencheng understood. It turned out that his intuition was correct, and it was really related to the Ming army!

However, after this, he couldn't figure out what happened to the Ming army. Are there traces of them?
So, he quickly asked: "What's going on, is something wrong?"

"The food was handed over to you Prince He Shuosu of the Qing Dynasty, but just after the fleet left, I saw a cavalry army of the Ming Dynasty rushing out, like destroying the ancients, beating the entire army of the Qing Dynasty to annihilation. It's gone!" When Matsudaira Nobuzuna said this, he felt a little flustered, and asked Fan Wencheng even more fiercely, "Say, what's going on, why did this happen, the Qing Dynasty did not trick my general, did it?"

　Fortunately, I can take medicine to expel it, go to work in the afternoon, and update it in the evening.
