Chapter 1312 under Hanyang City(1/2)
"The army of Middle-earth is coming again~~~"
This sentence is the most widely circulated in North Korea during these days.
The Central Plains dynasty saved North Korea several times, but unfortunately the sticks of later generations were not grateful.
The arrogant rod and the proud monkeys squeezed the Central Plains dynasty into the Yangtze River for thousands of years in their respective history books.
However, the Korean people at this time regarded the Ming Dynasty as the authentic one.
Moreover, whenever Wang Xiao and the others went, they wiped out the local aristocratic landlords and then distributed the land to the civilians who accompanied the army and the poor local people, which naturally gained great support from the local people.
The land annexation of the Ming Dynasty was extremely serious, and even forced countless bandits to eventually destroy the Ming Dynasty.
North Korea, which is almost no different from the Ming Dynasty in all aspects, also follows this aspect.
Their land annexation was even more serious than that of the Ming Dynasty.
The reason why it was not destroyed was because the Japanese invaded in the Wanli period, and the big sharks had a wave, which slightly alleviated the environment where the farmer had no land.
Another thing is that the country's small country is weak and the strength of the aristocratic landlords is very strong compared to the people, and they cannot develop even if they want to.
But now that the Ming army is coming, it is completely different.
After destroying the local aristocratic landlords, the land was first distributed to the civilians who followed the army, and the female family members of the aristocratic landlords were also mate to them.
The more than 100,000 people brought this time were strictly selected.
Strong body is the basic condition, and more importantly, all these civilians are bachelors.
In an era of countless natural disasters and wars, most of the people who survived were young and strong.
Now the land under the Ming Dynasty is gradually becoming stable, and these young and strong people cannot get a wife must be solved.
This time, the rebellion against North Korea is a good opportunity.
After all the good land was distributed to the Ming people, the rest was distributed to the local people.
Most of them are inferior fields, with only a small number of medium fields.
But even so, the local people are grateful and willing to die for the emperor.
Because the locals are too poor, they have no land for generations and have become tenants and serfs.
The Emperor of Ming Dynasty distributed land to them and was exempted from taxes for three years. The tax rate in the future was also scary compared to before.
No one will refuse such a good thing.
Moreover, when the complaint meeting was held, the Ming Dynasty's military propagandist had already made it clear.
If those unjust officials cannot be eliminated, when the emperor leaves, those landlord families in the past will inevitably rob the fields assigned by the people. At that time, they will either be sharks or return to the days when they planted for a lifetime but never had enough food.
Farmers everywhere are actually very simple.
So simple that in order to protect the fields he had just obtained, hundreds of thousands of local people were collected and formed a counterattack army.
As the troops and horses advanced rapidly, fewer and fewer civilians followed the army, because they gradually began to stay in various places to grow grain during the day and cultivate underground seeds at night.
But the number of soldiers and horses in the Ming Dynasty was growing like snowballs.
The farmers, who occupied the vast majority of the local population, almost stood firmly under the banner of the Ming Emperor after dividing the land and complaining about the elimination of the aristocratic landlords.
Along the way, landlords from various aristocratic families tried to take the initiative to surrender.
But Wang Xiao did not accept any of them.
The reason is very simple. Leaving these people is leaving hidden dangers in the future.
Wang Xiao and Chongzhen could not stay here for a long time. When they left, they would know what trouble these big landlords of aristocratic families would make.
Instead of having trouble in the future, it is better to cut the mess quickly and eliminate all the troubles now.
In more than three months, the Ming army had rapidly expanded to an astonishingly more than 300,000 people.
This is not a number blown out by the enemy, it is a real number of people.
It was just specially selected, otherwise almost all the Korean people from all over the country would be able to follow.
There is no way, Wang Xiao issued a notice that he could not only share the land with his military's fullness and food, but also make military achievements.
Farmers who have a deep pursuit of land are really willing to do anything.
The army rushed to the city of Hanyang.
This is the largest city in North Korea and the most concentrated place for the remaining aristocratic landlords.
"What's the thing about this?"
Wang Xiao casually sent the letter begging for mercy from the North Korean king, but the messenger Choi Chengxiu.
Well, that's right.
This time, the person who came out of Hanyang City to deliver a letter as an envoy was Cui Chengxiu... or Jun, Sang could call him anything.
"The Emperor calms down."
Choi Chengxiu touched the ground with her head, explaining in panic that "North Korea is loyal to the Ming Dynasty and never disobeys and betrayal, the sun is clear!"
"The sun is clear?"
Wang Xiao looked up at the cloudless sky. "If there was heavy rain and thunder falling from the sky at this time, would the sky be scolding you for lying?"
In the era without short videos on mobile phones, how could Cui Chengxiu know what happened in the Ming Dynasty?
Although everyone around was laughing, his expression was extremely strange. Cui Chengxiu looked at the sky carefully for a while, then gritted her teeth and said, "It's true!"
Wang Xiao was too lazy to put the POSS, so he raised his hand and pointed at the sky, "The sky is above, let's lower the sky thunder and punish this liar."
Cui Chengxiu looked at Wang Xiao blankly and said to herself, "Isn't this a brainless person?"
There is not even a cloud in this sky in broad daylight, and this is not how the thunderbolt of the sky comes from.
Then, the wind blew.
The wind brought clouds to the sky. Cui Chengxiu raised her eyes and watched the dark clouds gathered from all directions in the sky almost covering the sky.
Amid the sound of 'Rumbling~~~', a thunderbolt from the clear sky really appeared.
Looking at the dark clouds and thunder and lightning in the sky, feeling the strong wind and drizzle.
Choi Chengxiu, who had been staring at her eyes, suddenly straightened her body, and a gurgling sound from her throat, and then she fell straight to the ground.
Wang Xiao snorted, "There is no use for scholars."
Wang Xiao took away his magical powers and the sky became clear again.
The army that had already prepared for the rebels there, shouted and rushed forward to start attacking the city with the rumbling cannons.
North Korea also has city walls, but their city walls are more like earthen walls than city walls.
It is the kind of courtyard wall with adobe and stones.
When attacking everywhere before, there was no need for artillery fire to attack the city, nor did it need to build any precision siege equipment. It was just a simple carrying a ladder to "ant-attacking the city".
The Hanyang City in front of you is the best place in the entire Korean city wall.
But even so, the city walls with more than four meters of high wall bricks are still at most the same level as those of the Ming Dynasty.
The cannon, which I had never used much along the way, has found its place to be used this time.
Under the rumbling sound of cannons, the defenders on the city wall did not even dare to show their heads.
There is no way, North Korea's military power is too weak, and its combat effectiveness is comparable to that of the soldiers of the Mingwei who have not been a sergeant for many years and can only cultivate land.
This is something that will inevitably happen in the dynasty where the big turban is in power.
The court had only so much money and food, and they were all given to these Qiu Ba people to eat and drink, so the civil officials were of course unwilling to do so.
Without money and food, there will naturally be no strong army.
The soldiers who couldn't even eat and couldn't support their families without even covering themselves, and they would go to war to protect the nobles and ministers.
When the bombardment finally stopped, a large number of anti-rebellion troops ran under the city wall with extended ladders, erected the ladders and started climbing, figures finally appeared on the top of the city.
There was also a moat in Hanyang City before, but when the Tartars came a few years ago, they captured the locals and filled the moat directly.
Over the years, the two classes of ministers have also thought about re-excavating, but the fight between them is really too powerful. No matter who proposes it, someone will inevitably refute the objection with the righteous saying of "abuse of people's power".
In the end of the battle, nothing was done.
"Shoot!Shoot!"
The defenders on the top of the city shouted and shot arrows downwards.
Ordinary North Korean sergeants are indeed very bad, but they also have similar servants.
These people are called the Martial Army, with good skills and tactics, and their archery practices are excellent all year round.
Later generations of Fangzi often won medals in archery competitions, which is also a kind of inheritance.
At this time, there were almost no ordinary sergeants stationed in Hanyang City.
Because those people had long gone to join the Ming army to divide the land.
Those who stay here are basically relatives of aristocratic families and large landlords, as well as military generals and their servants in the court.
