Wu Nian looked up at the twenty thousand members of the navy and said straight to the point: "My purpose of keeping you is very simple."
"Some of you are from the Navy, and some are from the Yalu River Navy. The same goes for the soldiers in your hands now."
"You don't have enough warships for naval battles."
"These two are my naval captains. Li Tianbao and Songping Isshin. Their warships will be lent to you for use."
"The Fuso Navy is different from the people currently rebelling in the north. They are the Fuso regular army. After you get the warships, don't be too ambitious and send troops to fight them. First, cooperate with the army to defend the coast. At the same time, train the soldiers to adapt to naval warfare. When the time is right, I will naturally send you out to fight the Fuso Navy."
"Yes." The twenty thousand households suddenly understood and quickly bowed in response.
Some of them looked up at Li Tianbao and Songping Yishin, feeling very hot inside. Songping is determined to forget it, and his growth cannot be replicated.
But Li Tianbao has traces to follow. He was originally a barefoot fisherman, but by chance, he became a captain in charge of the navy of ten thousand households.
This is the future.
As long as you work well under the general's command and make military exploits, you can become a garrison officer or a school captain.
After the twenty naval officers left, Wu Nian turned to Songping Yishin and Li Tianbao and said, "That's what happened. To stabilize the situation in the north, rely on the Goguryeo people."
"To bring peace to Li Jinzhu, I rely on you."
"Your navy boarded a river warship and headed to the Han River to meet up with Liu Tianfang and Qian Botao's river navy. Confronted Li Jinzhu in the Han River."
"Yes." Li Tianbao and Songping Yixin stood up and bowed respectfully to Wu Nian. Immediately, they also left.
"So. Will my plan of using the Goguryeo people to quell the Goguryeo rebellion and resist the Fuso Navy succeed?"
Wu Nian exhaled a little and said to himself.
As he spoke, his eyes gradually lit up, and his brows were full of confidence.
Spring passes and autumn comes, and another year comes to an end.
Under the rule of Wu Nian, the capital of Goguryeo. It is much more depressed than during the Kim Dynasty. After all, a large number of powerful and wealthy people fled south to Seoul, which had an impact on all aspects.
But the impact on ordinary people was minimal. Daily food, rice, oil and salt, weddings and funerals, everything is business as usual.
even.
Their comfort level increased slightly. After all, the Jin Dynasty has been established for many years. Originally, the powerful people in the capital were not as good as dogs.
It has reached the point where a lump of bird droppings falling from the sky can hit a powerful person.
So many powerful people naturally bring about some bad things. For example, bullying men and women, trampling on the law.
There used to be a saying in the officialdom that it was the most difficult official to be. It is the governor of Pyongyang, also known as the prefect. But because it is located in the capital, it is called Fuyin and has a high status.
Faced with so many powerful people, the governor of Pyongyang either made a mistake and was removed from his post, or offended someone and was removed from his post. Very few people served a full term.
But in the year of Wu, there was a new atmosphere in the new dynasty, and the officials were full of energy. No official wanted to fall behind and all wanted to strive for the top. Wu Nian's laws were strict and there was no disturbance to the people.
Not to mention the military.
There are no dandies and powerful people.
This has led to a sharp decline in security incidents and disturbances to residents in the capital. The comfort level of people's lives has naturally skyrocketed.
The people gradually supported Wu Nian.
The three prefectures of Uiju, Ganggye, and Pyongyang were Wu Nian's basic base in northern Goguryeo, and they were extremely stable.
To put it bluntly, it would be unlucky if he were defeated and retreated one day. There may be many people who will follow him to Liaodong, supporting the elderly and the weak.
Inside the palace.
In the palace of Eqin and Eniang. Although there are many beautiful women in the palace, the beauty is not as good as that of dogs. But the two sisters enjoyed exclusive favor and always accompanied him.
But today Wu Nian went out early in the morning, and he did not take Eqin and Eniang with him.
The two sisters sat in the palace eating spiced melon seeds, feeling a little resentful.
"Where has the general gone? It's so mysterious and he didn't take us with him." E Niang threw away the melon seeds in her hand and pouted.
"We are together all the time. If you don't know, how can I know?" E'e's eyes were filled with emotion and she said resentfully.
Li Jinzhu's beauty trap was actually successful.
Since ancient times, beauty has relied on the strong.
Wu Nian spends time with the two sisters almost every day.
outside the city. There is a village called Fuqing Village. Most of the villagers have the surname Cui. Although it is located in Gyeonggi Province, its location is very remote.
Everyday villagers live a very comfortable life, working from sunrise to sunrise and resting from sundown.
Today, two lost Han people came to the village. He came to the village to ask for water and was warmly received by the village chief Cui Jinshan.
Cui Jinshan invited the members to sit in his blue brick house and asked his youngest son to make tea for them. Immediately, he raised his head and said to the two foreign ministers: "It's really strange that the two foreign ministers are going back to Liaodong, but they came to a remote place like ours."
The two wealthy businessmen were Wu Nian and Lu Sheng who were on patrol incognito. The two of them were wearing ordinary Han attire, and they also restrained their aura.
Ordinary people cannot see through their identities.
Wu Nian put down the tea cup and said with a smile: "This is also our first time to visit Goguryeo. The people we brought with us are all from Liaodong. We don't have a guide. We are not familiar with the terrain, so we got lost."
"Thank you for your hospitality, sir." Lu Sheng also put down his tea cup and saluted with cupped fists.
"That's it." Cui Jinshan nodded, showing relief. Then he returned the salute with fists and said "you're welcome".
Wu Nian and Lu Sheng were very satisfied. People like Cui Jinshan were important figures in a village. That is, the grassroots level of the people.
His attitude can basically represent the attitude of the people in a village.
Because it is difficult for grassroots people to have access to outside information. On the contrary, people like Cui Jinshan can often leave the village.
The people in the village believed whatever he said.
Cui Jinshan was very polite to the two Han people who came to Goguryeo. It also represents the people's view of the Han people here.
Moreover, Cui Jinshan can speak Chinese and has read books.
This attitude also means that the scholars on behalf of the people are relatively friendly to the rule of the Han people.
Although separated from the Central Plains for thousands of years, Xiaozong is still Xiaozong.
Goguryeo regarded itself as a small China, which was different from the vulgar barbarians like Meng Yuan.
Cui Jinshan, a well-known person in the village, has never been out of Pyongyang in his life and is very curious about the Han people in Liaodong. He asked: "Two members, I heard that there is still a war in Liaodong. How is the situation?"
Wu Nian replied: "The land of the general's four mansions is as solid as a rock. The battle was a bit fierce before, and there were many casualties among the soldiers. But with the general's victory in Goguryeo, the Fuso navy withdrew its troops to harass the land under the rule of the northern general of Goguryeo. Liaodong's The battle situation became much more stable. The Chu and Meng Yuan people did not continue their high-intensity attacks."
"After all, if we cannot attack for a long time, the army will become war-weary."
"The Meng Yuan people and Chu people also have to consider the morale of the soldiers."
Cui Jinshan nodded, showing joy, and said: "That's good. Liaodong's country is stable. The general can stay in the capital for a long time and choose the time to fight the decisive battle with Empress Dowager Li."
"This is our blessing."
Wu Nian and Lu Sheng looked at each other and smiled. Then he pretended to hesitate and asked in confusion: "Excuse me. My general attacked Goguryeo and destroyed the Jin Dynasty. Why do you, sir, support my general when there are many Goguryeo people?"
