"Sister, if we go there, it will take at least half a year, or even one or two years."
At night, Guo An held Nuan Yu in his arms and explained various things with a look of reluctance.
"If someone dares to bully the girl, the girl can go to the Yan Palace and look for the princess. Although the princess is not well-known, she is also a very capable person.
Sometimes, the princess's words are more effective than His Highness's. "
"Save it for me!"
"In addition, during weekdays, girls can also walk around more with the princess. Presumably, His Highness will also ask the princess to take more care of our family!"
"Also, Guo Han and Guo Shen are still young. Watch them and don't let them run around... Also watch your father-in-law and father. There will be big changes in the court in the next few years.
Now, the great governance of Beiping Prefecture is likely to be targeted by some people.
Our Guo family is too small and our foundation is too shallow to be tampered with. "
"That's His Highness, maybe he won't be affected sometimes?"
"As long as our Guo family survives this, blessings will surely come to us in the future!"
"..."
Three days later.
The Yanwangfu fleet set off again.
But this time, Shi Guoan, the head of the Prince of Yan's Palace, went to Korea with several generals of the Prince of Yan's Palace on the pretext of inspecting Goryeo.
But no one knows.
in a huge fleet.
It not only hides several furnace makers who are proficient in smelting silver bullion.
Moreover, there are more than 20 large ships loaded with boxes of bombs and 10,000 shi of food.
at the same time.
In the Goryeo Kingdom, a group of Goryeo dignitaries also began to move.
Gather the soldiers one by one, push some food, and walk to the seaside.
Afterwards, we boarded a big boat and headed south along the coastline.
Wait until Guo An and others arrive in Goryeo.
Then he saw more than two hundred ships of various sizes passing by carrying Korean soldiers with excited faces.
Ganghwa Port.
As the fleet sailed in, officials such as Jin Zhong, Shang Kezhou and Chang Guoting hurriedly came forward to pay homage to Guo An.
"You want to go too?"
Hearing these people's requests, Guo An couldn't help but look surprised.
Shang Kezhou said with a serious face: "Back to Guo Changshi, the Japanese country has plundered our Ming Dynasty for several years, burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil. Although we are civil servants, we also have the intention to kill the Japanese!"
"Tsk!"
Guo An sneered and said: "As long as you have the intention to kill the Japanese, you can show us the country of Goryeo and Yan."
"Guo Changshi, I really dare to kill the Japanese!" Shang Kezhou said hurriedly.
"So what? Once the army leaves, the Goryeo and Yan Kingdom will be empty of troops."
Guo An glanced at Shang Kezhou, Jin Zhong, Chang Guoting and others, "Nowadays, the Goryeo Yan Kingdom is more important than the Japanese Kingdom. As the chief officials of the Goryeo Yan Kingdom, no one can leave easily.
In fact, the number of times Xiu Mu went back to Prince Yan's Mansion to rest was much less. "
Hearing this, Jin Zhong and Chang Guoting and others couldn't help but look solemn.
"You guys remember, people who are not of my race will have different minds! Even among my own race, there will inevitably be some people who have different minds.
If the Goryeo Yan Kingdom makes any mistakes, the army sent to conquer the Japanese Kingdom will inevitably suffer heavy losses! "
Jin Zhong said with a solemn face: "Don't worry, Guo Changshi, we will definitely defend the Goryeo Yan Kingdom!"
"Um!"
Guo An nodded slightly, "If nothing happens to Beiping Mansion, you can reduce the number of times you go back to Beiping Mansion, so you can go back less often.
"Yes, Guo Changshi!"
…
The next day.
A group of Goryeo nobles came to pay homage to Guo An.
Fifty thousand Korean soldiers and more than 300 large and small ships have set off first.
Guo An didn't stay any longer, and set off directly with ten thousand Yanshan Guards on forty ships!
A few days later.
Tsushima is already in sight.
Guo An stood at the bow of the ship and ordered.
"Send the order, the army will surround Tsushima Island and go to the island to plow the land and search. Not a single Japanese will be left on the island to prevent them from counterattacking Goryeo!"
"Here!"
Zhu Liang quickly went to deliver the order.
After a while.
The huge fleet behind them began to slowly disperse, heading towards Tsushima Island to surround them.
The strength of the 60,000-strong army is far from comparable to the 20,000-strong army last year. As Guo An said, they searched the island like plowing the ground.
It took less than two days.
So they searched the entire Tsushima Island and found more than 5,000 Japanese pirates.
There is particularly little arable land on Tsushima.
There were no scarce resources. If they wanted to survive, they would either plunder Goryeo or plunder the coastal cities of the Ming Dynasty.
It can be said that the whole island is invaded.
None of these Japanese pirates are innocent.
After clearing Tsushima Island, Guo An can safely attack the large Japanese island.
…
The place where the army landed is still the place where they landed last time.
This area has mountains, rivers, and Japanese cities, making it a very suitable base for the Ming Dynasty to conquer Japan.
The most important thing is that the army had almost measured this area with their feet last time.
Where can you hide your troops, where can you build a city, where can you lay an ambush...
All the generals and commanders of Yanshan Guard knew this clearly.
And a year has passed.
This area has been occupied by Japanese people again.
The same operation was done again, a group of Goryeo soldiers, like robbers, massacred every village and city.
In less than five days, more than ten cities were captured, and countless food and property were destroyed.
At the same time, the Japanese dignitaries also received news that the Goryeo bandits from last time had returned again and robbed their Japanese people.
They were robbed twice in a row by the weak Koreans, and they seemed to be heading for their silver mines!
At this time, a group of Japanese dignitaries no longer cared about fighting each other, and quickly united to form a large army and kill the Koreans.
And this will.
Guo An has already brought a group of Chen Shou, Zhu Liang and other Yanshan guards to the silver mine.
Seeing the pieces of silver smelted in the silver nugget smelting workshop, although Chen Shou, Zhu Liang and others already knew about it, they were still full of excitement.
"Guo Changshi, we will station here to build the city!"
Guo An shook his head, "No!"
Seeing the puzzled looks on Chen Shou, Zhu Liang and others, Guo And said: "This silver mine must not be known to the Koreans, or even noticed."
"Yes, Guo Changshi!"
Chen Shou and other generals finally understood and nodded repeatedly.
Guo An asked again: "Are those Japanese laborers still alive?"
Zhu Liang quickly replied: "Back to Guo Changshi, except for a few Japanese laborers looking for death, the rest of the laborers are very honest."
"very good!"
Guo An nodded slightly, "Where is the furnace maker?"
As soon as he finished speaking, several old men ran in from outside the crowd.
"Guo Changshi, the villain and others are here!"
Guo Andao said: "From now on, this place will be handed over to you! I will leave five hundred households and have enough explosives.
There is no need to feel bad about those Japanese laborers. After they die, they can be captured from outside!
Your only request is to speed up the mining of this silver mine. "
"You obey, villain!"
The furnace makers looked at the smelting workshop in front of them, their eyes shining brightly.
"Don't worry, Guo Changshi, I have been smelting in silver mines for most of my life, and I have never encountered silver mines of such good quality.
Moreover, this silver mine seems to be more than just a mountain here. It is estimated that it has not been hundreds of years, and it is difficult to understand the silver mine mining here! "
Guo Andao: "Then our army of the Ming Dynasty will be stationed in the Japanese country for a hundred years and turn the Japanese country into our Yan country!"
Chen Shou, Zhu Liang and other generals all looked happy.
"Guo Changshi, Guo Changshi..."
At this time, a hundred households ran in from outside.
"What's the matter?"
"Reporting to Guo Changshi, the Japanese suddenly appeared with an army of 100,000, and the Koreans were defeated!"
"Um?"
Guo An, Chen Shou and others could not help but change their expressions slightly.
Guo An asked: "The Koreans had an army of fifty thousand, how could they be defeated so quickly?"
Hundreds of households quickly reported: "Back to Guo Changshi, it seems that the Koreans went to attack a large Japanese city. Unexpectedly, the Japanese were not only waiting for them in that city, but there was even a Japanese army hidden outside the city!"
"Is there an army hidden outside the city?"
Guo An's expression condensed, "Among these Goryeo troops, aren't there hundreds of households of Yanshan Guard following me? Why didn't they notice?"
The hundred households gave a bitter smile and said helplessly, "Guo Changshi Mingjian, those Koreans directly became proud soldiers after successfully attacking several Japanese cities.
In fact, one by one they directly transformed into Goryeo bandits, and some Japanese villages ignored them and only focused on attacking Japanese cities.
They were marching so fast that I, the Yanshan Guard brothers, followed them all day long and had no time to explore their surroundings! "
On the side, Chen Shou said coldly: "Guo Changshi, these Koreans no longer take Yanshan Guard in their eyes. Only if they are killed by the Japanese will they understand the importance of Yanshan Guard to them!" "
Guo An nodded slightly and asked again: "Now, what are the losses of those Koreans? Where have they retreated? Is there any counterattack?"
“Going back to Guo Changshi, after attacking the big city and being ambushed, more than a thousand Koreans were killed.
Subsequently, the Japanese pursued.
However, the Japanese wore thin clothing and had short and inferior weapons. Many of the Japanese were still wielding farm tools such as iron hoes.
Therefore, after just chasing and killing hundreds of Koreans, they had to stop the pursuit and return. "
"After the Koreans reacted, they began to counterattack, but the Japanese army was more tenacious than what they had encountered before.
When the Koreans counterattacked, the Japanese were not afraid of death and fought hard with the Koreans.
The Koreans soon became timid, and after more than a thousand people died, they retreated hastily! "
"Now, the Korean army is stationed in a city fifty miles away from where we are, requesting the support of our Yanshan Guard army!"
Guo Andao: "Tell them that in the cold winter, the Japanese have no hand clothes or foot clothes. They cannot march for a long time, so don't worry!"
As for the reinforcements, they will arrive in two days! "
"Yes, Guo Changshi!"
The hundred households responded and walked quickly.
"Guo Changshi, I am willing to lead a large army to attack the Japanese army!"
"Guo Changshi, the last general is willing to go..."
Chen Shou, Zhu Liang, Tan Tong, Wang You and other generals all hurriedly requested orders.
"Don't be impatient!"
Guo An smiled slightly and said: "With a hundred thousand Japanese army, I, the Yanshan Guard, can only send two thousand troops!"
"two thousand?"
Chen Shou, Zhu Liang and others were startled.
Guo An asked: "Can two thousand Yanshan Guards, armed with five thousand grenades, two thousand incendiary bombs, and twenty general cannons, defeat the 100,000 Japanese army?"
Chen Shou's face turned stern and he said directly: "Don't worry, Guo Changshi, the last general will definitely be able to lead two thousand Yanshan Guards to defeat the Japanese army!"
"How to defeat?"
Guo An asked again.
"this……"
Chen Shou couldn't help but be stunned.
Guo An said in a deep voice: "Everyone, remember, our Prince Yan's Palace allowed those Goryeo nobles to bring fifty thousand Goryeo troops to the Japanese country this time, just to let them use their miscellaneous army.
In every war, they must be the vanguard army.
I, the Yanshan Guard, carry general cannons and bombs, and are responsible for destroying the courage of the Japanese and making them chaotic, so that the Koreans can kill the enemy! "
"Yes, Guo Changshi!"
