"There are still stone figures." Nangong Wudi suddenly discovered that there was a stone figure standing at the gate of the city, which looked very strange.
This is the unique stone statue on Jeju Island: "Dolharubang" is an expression of ancient stone worship
However, Nangong Wudi is not a cultural scholar or a tourist. He has little interest in these things. After observing the defense situation at the top of the city for a long time, he shouted: "Zichuan"
"Yes" Zichuan Xiuji, who had been promoted to a sergeant in the security army, immediately ran out of the team and formed a security army platoon in the task force attacking Jingyi County.
"Take your men and take the county seat within ten minutes."
"Understood" Zichuan said simply and neatly
Zichuan and his men quickly prepared for battle. He glanced at Nangong as if asking for instructions. When he saw the other party nodded, he pulled out his sword and said with a ferocious look in his eyes: "Adjust the bayonet."
As Nangong Wudi raised his sword high and let out a heart-rending howl: more than thirty Japanese mercenaries from the Japanese company of the security army, holding Southeast Asian-style rifles with shining bayonets, screamed with the maximum lung capacity of each person. Howling "onboard" together started "pig burst"
The ones rushing at the front were the "Batao Team" headed by Zichuan. Each of them waved their shining swords and roared forward.
"Suppress and shoot" Nangong Wudi ordered
All Mini rifles fired at the city head together, and a dense rain of bullets swept across the city head. After one round of shooting, there were no more Li Chao soldiers standing on the city head.
〖Japanese〗The Japanese mercenaries ran across the open space quickly - there were no trenches outside the city. They easily approached the city wall. Under the suppressive fire of Mini rifles, not a single arrow was shot from the top of the city, and no one dared to explore. The mercenaries who came out to throw a stone quickly rushed to the city wall. They had no ladders or ropes. They only saw short and sturdy [Japanese] soldiers one by one, and they quickly set up a human ladder)
The first people to climb up the city wall were the Ba Dao team. After climbing up the city wall, they found out how miserable it was - the width of the city head could only accommodate one person standing at most, and it was impossible for two people to walk across from each other. If there wasn't a slope behind, one step on The best thing Sora can do is get down, otherwise the [Japanese] mercenaries coming up with a fierce roar and roar will have to smash a few of them to death.
There were not many soldiers of the Li Dynasty left on the top of the city. Under the continuous firing of Mini rifles, the short and thin female wall could not withstand high bullets. Some soldiers were killed on the spot, while others took full advantage of the slope and escaped immediately. Go to town
The bloody battle at the top of the city that Zichuan expected did not happen - they faced only dozens of Li Dynasty soldiers who were frightened and had no intention of fighting. When they saw that these "Japanese pirates" had climbed up the city wall, Except for a few officers and a few soldiers who reluctantly fought and were quickly cut down and assassinated, the rest of the people dispersed in a hurry.
In less than ten minutes, the Japanese mercenaries had occupied the city gate. Zichuan swung his sword fiercely, shook off the blood drops, and ran down the city with a few people, rushed to the city gate, removed the gate bars, and opened the city. Door, all in one go
"Not bad." Nangong Wudi looked at his watch. It was exactly ten minutes. Although this was expected, the Japanese fanaticism displayed by these mercenaries was quite interesting.
The large forces quickly entered Jingyi County. How to occupy and loot the city. A standard process has been formed in the Planning Institute. The Planning Institute even specially compiled an iso standard manual to guide the steps to capture the city. As military officers and administrative personnel A course in the training and a special search team under the jurisdiction of the Planning Institute is incorporated into each overseas unit to receive, register and store loot and prisoners.
The troops entering the city quickly cleared away the stragglers in the city. After hanging a flag that read "He who surrenders will avoid death" and using loudspeakers to continuously broadcast in Korean, the soldiers of the Li Dynasty who were not killed quickly Twos and threes came out from all corners and surrendered]
Due to insufficient troops, they could not surround the whole city, so many soldiers and people in the city jumped from the city wall and escaped. Nangong Wudi did not pursue them - this place itself is an island, and it is not easy for fleeing people to cross the sea to the Korean Peninsula. Except for a few people, most people will eventually fall into their hands.
Nangong Wudi entered the city grandly with his guards and staff as flutists and drummers played the "March of the Grenadiers". Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the city gate, he stepped into a mud pond and was splashed with mud. Turning his neat uniform into a mess
"mmd" Nangong Wudi cursed - he actually forgot: the streets in most cities in this time and space have not been hardened either at home or abroad. It is a normal phenomenon to walk in mud.
There was chaos in the city for a while, but calm was quickly restored under the rapid pressure of the security forces. The people and the officials and slaves thought they were Japanese pirates. Many people jumped off the city wall where there was no Fubo army and fled to hide in the wilderness. Some If you are hiding in a remote place in the city and have no time to escape, you have to hide in the house and resign yourself to fate.
The accompanying civil affairs personnel posted notices to calm the people, and then continued broadcasting in Korean to calm the people down.
Nangong Wudi visited the county town of Jingyi with great interest. The houses were all low-rise houses with volcanic stone walls and thatch roofs. Even official buildings such as the county school and prison camp had tile roofs. In addition, it is also short. Basically, a person standing on the ground can touch the eaves with a raised hand.
The houses of common people and slaves did not even have floors. Only the houses of richer merchants and officials had raised floors. Due to the geographical environment of Jeju Island, the interiors of most houses are very damp and cold.
The county has a county school, an official warehouse, a small market, and several small shops and workshops.
The shop owners had already fled, leaving only empty music scores. Nangong Wudi looked at them, and found that they were nothing more than sauce shops, grocery stores, carpentry shops, wine shops, blacksmith shops and other basic commercial handicrafts that must be doubled everywhere. However, he did see We arrived at a very special workshop: the bow and arrow shop
The bow and arrow shop is very large, and no one is inside. The stove for baking bamboo is still lit. The horn glue and fish maw glue are being cooked on the stove. There are many pieces of wood, bamboo poles, feathers, beef tendons, and horns piled on the floor. Hanging on the walls are bows made of
Wandering around, you can see finished and semi-finished products everywhere. Nangong Wudi roughly estimates that there are only a hundred finished bows, and a few semi-finished products, as well as three or four hundred. There are two to three hundred bundles
Obviously, so many bows and arrows cannot serve Jeju Island itself. They may be goods exported by Jeju Island.
Considering that there are many horses and cows in the local area, it is natural that they are rich in cowhide, horns and tendons of horses and cows - these are important raw materials for making bows and arrows.
The occupying army headquarters is located in the best building in the county: Jingyi Supervisory Camp
Nangong Wudi was promoted to the lobby, and the captured six-room clerks in the county who had not had time to escape were driven over - the local political system of the Li Dynasty of North Korea was exactly the same as that of the Ming Dynasty. There were also officials, households, rituals, soldiers, workers, etc. in the Weixian prison. Xingliufang is responsible for county affairs. The officials in the sixth house are all selected from local people. The rural officials are very familiar with the local situation, so the first step after capturing the city is to control these people.
With no salary and no promotion channels, petty officials who live on gray income are generally not very loyal to the dynasty. This was true in the Ming Dynasty, and it is the same in North Korea. Especially when their lives and property are threatened, petty officials are very loyal to the dynasty. I quickly chose to cooperate
The official language of the Li Dynasty was Chinese. Although "Proverbs" existed, it was not widely used. Neither scholars nor officials used it. It was mainly used by women and lower-class people. Because important official and private documents were all written in Chinese, although these minor officials They don’t speak Chinese, but they can read and write Chinese, so the staff sent by the Planning Institute can have “written conversations” with them without the help of a translator.
The clerks quickly provided enough information about the county. The residents in the county, including the villages outside the city close to the city wall, have a total population of 8,000, two-thirds of which are official slaves. Of course, there are also many common people. The total population of the county, including public and private slaves, living in the villages outside the city, is 15,000 to 6,000.
Regarding horses, all official horse ranches are under the unified management of Jeju Animal Husbandry. The county supervisor has no jurisdiction. However, there are still some private ranches where horses, cattle and sheep are raised.
"Is there anyone named Jin Wanyi in this county?" Nangong Wudi suddenly asked
The junior officials looked at each other and secretly thought that these Japanese pirates were attracted to Master Jin.
Kim Man-il was a well-known wealthy family in Jeju at that time. He was named Langguan because he donated ten thousand horses to the court at one time.
"Master Jin lives in Jeju, not in this county," one of the clerks replied, "There is also his ranch in this county."
The most valuable confessions from the clerks were the grain reserves in the city: there were more than 10,000 dan of grain in two official warehouses. This figure made Nangong Wudi quite excited - at least before the refugees arrived, there was plenty of food.
But the conversation that followed soon made him unhappy.
It is true that there are more than 10,000 kilograms of grain in the county, but Jeju Island just suffered from a famine last year, and the private grain stocks are extremely scarce. Winter has just entered, and relief will be needed when the harvest is lean next year. Moreover, there are five to six thousand official slaves in the county. Basically, people have to get a consulate from the county supervisor to live.
The official slaves farmed and herded for the county supervisor, and they themselves did not get any harvest. Their food rations and clothing were all provided by the county supervisor. When encountering natural disasters, a large number of official slaves not only could not play a role, but became The huge burden of supervising the camp (to be continued)
