North Korea's Kaiju City, the barrier of Seoul, Shi Biao arrived here three days ago, and personally observed the execution, killing more than 300 people. These more than 300 people were scholars who were displaced during the war. With the help of the Ming army, they got a place to live in Kaizhou City, but they were not grateful. They were also very dissatisfied with the Ming army burning their ancient Korean books and destroying their ancestral temples in North Korea. They missed the previous weak king, so Planned a confrontation against the county government.
However, before the war, these three hundred people were all pampered and well-off children of aristocratic families. Before the current situation was turbulent, these people were all playboys who sang songs. Now they all want to serve their country with their passion. Do something. biquge.biz
But passion comes and goes quickly, and passion alone cannot achieve great things.
However, the result was that more than 300 people were chased and hacked by 100 pickets. Thirty-six people were hacked to death on the spot, and all the others were attacked by surprise.
After Shi Biao, who was based in Seoul, learned about it, he came to Kaizhou City in person, collected their heads, and made a Jingguan outside Kaizhou City.
When the ancients killed thieves and laid out the corpses of a victorious battle, they would build a temple as a place to hide the corpses to frighten Xiaoxiao.
Seoul, the largest city in North Korea, has thousands of heads placed in its southwest corner.
After building the capital, Shi Biao rested for a while in the city. It was also in Kaizhou City that he received a letter from Wang Yue. The date for the appointment of the Han Dynasty in the capital was advanced and the place of appointment was changed to Andong City.
After seeing the letter, Shi Biao immediately sent his soldiers to open the map of North Korea that the Ming Dynasty had mapped, and found Andong City in the southeast direction.
This city of Andong is now under the jurisdiction of Zhao Fu, but since the King of Han is coming, he has to take time to go there.
Although North Korea at this time was divided into eight prefectures, it was divided by the imperial court, and the overall administration is still relatively chaotic.
Today's North Korea is divided into three parts, one part is the southeast coast under the jurisdiction of Zhao Fu, and the other part is the territory of the former Pyongyang regime where Wang Yue promoted pickets and appointed officials. These places are the most stable places, and the third part is Shi Biao Occupied Seoul and most of the territory in the southwest.
Shi Biao, thirty-one years old, was given the title of Marquis by the emperor and became the commander-in-chief of the army. This made Shi Biao his Alexander.
Like his uncle, Shi Biao was also very anxious.
Shi Heng's anxiety was that he was afraid that Shi Biao would catch up with him.
Shi Biao's anxiety was also the same. He was afraid that he would progress too fast and climb too high. When his uncle fell down, he would be pulled down. At that time, the fall would be miserable.
Being promoted is like building a house. The foundation must be solid so that the whole house can be strong. But now Shi Biao's personal resume jumps one level every year and three levels every two years. This makes Shi Biao feel that his foundation is not yet strong. It is stable, but depending on your own character, you can slowly strengthen it, but it is not good luck because of the existence of the old uncle Shi Heng.
His ignorant old uncle also had heavy troops in Yunnan. This fact made Shi Biao very scared.
Shi Biao knew his uncle very well. If the war in Annan was not going well and the court admonished him to replace him, it would be fine. But if everything was going smoothly, the sky was high and the emperor was far away, and there was no one around to calm or persuade him. He will always do some desperate things, and when the time comes, he will definitely be implicated.
Therefore, in the past two years, Shi Biao never wrote a letter to Shi Heng, he was deliberately evading.
Once a person is smart, he thinks too much, and once he thinks too much, he will not be happy. Shi Biao is a representative of this kind of person.

The training ground of the 10th Battalion of the Capital Regiment is located to the west of the Capital.
Today, no one in the capital's regiment camp is allowed to leave the camp today. The layout of the training ground started three days in advance.
There are many rumors in the army that His Majesty the Emperor will come to the training ground to watch the new firearms developed by the firearms craftsmen of Yuheng Division of the Ministry of Industry.
Years ago, Chen Ying and others began to make arrangements. They first mobilized two battalions of troops for security, and after the Lantern Festival, other regiments and camps that had not received the mobilization order were prohibited from leaving the camp.
And it was just dawn.
The emperor's guard of honor left Beijing and went straight to the training ground.
In fact, this firearms drill was originally scheduled for the end of the twelfth year of Chenghua, but due to various things, it could only be postponed indefinitely.
Before, Zhu Jianshen had seen the newly developed firearm in the martial arts arena in the palace. It can be said that it has the outline of a modern firearm. Although it looks similar, the loading method is still the traditional front-loading type.
There are accompanying officials.
Yu Qian, a bachelor of Wenhua Palace, the chief minister of the cabinet, and the Taibao.
Li Xian, Bachelor of Wenyuange, Second Assistant to the Cabinet.
Xu Youzhen, a bachelor of Dongge University, an assistant minister of the cabinet, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Jiang Yuan, Minister of the Ministry of Industry.
Liu Bingtong, the doctor of Yu Heng Division.
Zhu Yi, the prince of Yuanhai County and the father of Duke Cheng.
Military bosses Chen Ying, Guo Deng, Yang Hong and others.
Liu Bingtong, a doctor in the Yu Heng Division of the Ministry of Industry, was himself a firearms expert, and he was mainly in charge of the design of firearms and had thousands of skilled craftsmen.
It can be said that Yu Hengsi has been the favorite of the imperial court in recent years. From the 10th year of Chenghua to the 13th year of Chenghua, during these three years, the imperial court allocated funds in the name of the emperor, and the normal allocation of the Ministry of Household Affairs reached more than 70 Ten thousand taels of silver.
And Yu Hengsi also used this money to revive the shipbuilding industry.
The Longjiang Treasure Ship Company had money to advance to complete the huge orders for the Fujian Navy, Shandong Navy, and Ningbo Navy. The imperial court abolished the tax on craftsmen, which further expanded the people's enthusiasm for learning crafts.
In Dengzhou, Shandong and Quanzhou, Fujian, Yu Hengsi also invested hundreds of thousands of silver to create two shipbuilding companies second only to Longjiang Shipbuilding Company, and received the name of the company personally written by His Majesty the Emperor.
The shipping company in Dengzhou, Shandong is Dongdengzhou Neihaiwei Shipping Company.
The shipping company in Quanzhou, Fujian is Fuquanzhou Nanhai Voyage Shipping Company.
Of course, since warships, artillery, and firecrackers were produced, special attention was paid to the research and development. In the Capital Firearms Department Manufacturing Office, the Ordnance Bureau and the Military Warfare Bureau, within three years, hundreds of craftsmen were working on making guns every day. Using all his brains, he created a variety of artillery and blunderbuss, a total of thirty-six types.
But there haven't been any earth-shaking changes.
Until the twelfth year of Chenghua, the young man Liu Bingtong valued the most, Liu Guanghe, a young man under the age of 18 from the Jiri Baoyuan Bureau under the Nanjing Ordnance Bureau, produced a baby in the Nanjing Baoyuan Bureau. The meter-long shotgun changed the development history of traditional firearms.
The handle of the gun is not made of pig iron like traditional fire guns, but is made of cheaper wood. A copper pipe is inlaid on the wooden handle as the barrel. It is light to carry, can load gunpowder bullets quickly, and shoots easily. The distance is also more than 40 meters longer than the three-eyed fire blunderbuss commonly used in the army.
In addition to this shotgun, Liu Guanghe also designed an artillery piece suitable for warships with the support of Liu Bingtong. It has a long shooting distance, high explosive power, and is far lower in size and weight than traditional artillery.
After Liu Guanghe completed it, he entered Beijing in the 12th year of Chenghua, and then arranged to practice his power in the 13th year of Chenghua.
In the center of the training ground, there is a table with ten newly developed shotguns on it. Not far from the table, there are three bronze cannons of generals, facing a hilltop.
Zhu Jianshen attached great importance to this firearms research and development and decided to come in person, bringing many important officials with him.
After the emperor arrived at the training ground, Zhu Jianshen, surrounded by the crowd, came to the table and further inspected the shotgun. At this time, Liu Guanghe, the master craftsman of the research and development, and Liu Bingtong, the doctor, were at the outermost edge of the crowd, far away. Looking at the handsome young man in the middle from a distance......
