Chapter 170: Laozi (5)
"The matter between you and Houjin, this official understands very well!" Yan Changwu's first sentence, he is a mature politician, you don't understand, it only annoys both sides.
Unless you bring your soldiers to level the gold, you can’t do it at the moment.
Hong Yihan immediately shed tears on his cheeks, choked up and said: "Shangguo...We are sorry to go to the country!"
To be honest, the Kingdom of Korea is very ashamed of surrendering to Houjin. They are deeply influenced by Han culture and recognize themselves as Han people (of course, only the upper class thinks that they are, and North Korea’s P people are not qualified). Jin is a barbarian, as a Han, how can it be a barbarian!
But the opponent's power is justice. The cavalry rushes and the knife is on the body. What can the Koreans do?
They are weak, they are not a fighting nation, and they cannot resist.
According to the North Korean envoy of Houjin who came back, he knew that Houjin still retains a large number of barbarians, which made the North Korean upper class serious BS, and hated himself for surrendering to barbarians.
"The past is over, and the key is the future!" Yan Changwu said in an unpretentious manner.
Therefore, the two parties reached an agreement. The main content is that North Korea supports Mao Wenlong’s resistance in Phi Island. Every year, the national treasury allocates money to Phi Island. A quarter of the country’s expenditure is sent to Phi Island. At the same time, food is collected from Ping An Road and Huanghai Road to Phi Island. The rice is called "mao rice"!
As for the trade with the Southeastern Prefecture, it is only natural to collect information on Houjin and not to cooperate with Houjin.
The two met in the "Heaven and Earth Circle" pavilion on Ganghwa Island. This pavilion is located in the middle of the mountain, overlooking the port. The meeting was called the Heaven and Earth Circle Agreement. Later, the North Koreans built a memorial hall specially.
After talking, Yan Changwu invited Hong Yihan to visit the gunship of Southeast Mansion.
Yan Changwu did not let other forces board the ship, but he exerted pressure on North Korea.
cannon giant ship!
First-class quality officers and soldiers!
Good supply!
left a deep impression on Hong Yihan. He quickly returned to Seoul to report to the Korean monarchs and officials on the journey, and at the same time offered Yan Changwu's gift and greetings to them!
Yan Changwu was very angry and gave the King of Korea a set of fine silverware (tableware) from Taiwan, and a set of exquisite porcelain to the ministers, plus tea, rum and milk candy, including rum and milk candy. It is a Taiwanese specialty. He is generous, and he sent buckets of candies, and the milk candies are particularly sweet. Hong Yihan indicated how to eat candies.
"Since it is a gift from going to the country, please try it more!" Li Shu said kindly.
Eating in front of the king was an act of ignorance, but when Mingguo sent a gift, Li Shu was not as happy as everyone else, so the sergeants on duty watched the monarchs peel off the sugar paper and ate one after another. Unseen scenes made them drool.
"Oh, it's so sweet, it's really going to the country!" The monarchs and ministers ate sweetly.
"...Chen Guan, the Taiwan Guardian Artillery Ship, has huge artillery, many cannons, and the officers and soldiers are quite capable. We..." Hong Yihan didn't say anything, but everyone knew what he meant.
Ming people still have the strength, if they really hit the door, North Korea will be in big trouble.
In particular, I heard about the Taiwanese convoy's food (Hong Yihan eats lunch on the ship), which makes North Korean monarchs and ministers feel incredible. Even the soldiers have meat? And a lot?
This was a big shock to North Korean monarchs and ministers who gave spare ribs as a gift. Some ministers did not believe it. Hong Yihan said unhappily, "Shangguo doesn't need to lie to us, because they are all so big and so tall!"
He made a gesture, indicating that Mingren was a circle bigger and taller than the North Korean, which proved that what he said was true and everyone believed it.
The important minister Li Gui hesitated and said: "It is natural to support the Anti-Japanese War of Shangguo, but Jianzhou Barbarians..."
One sentence weighed heavily on everyone's hearts, and Hong Yihan stood up and said firmly: "We must support Shangguo. The minister guarantees his wealth and life, and the country will win!"
Everyone knows that this Hong Yihan is a staunch fan (this firmness does not contain derogation), and he has always supported Ming with a clear-cut stand (if there is no Yan Changwu, then the historical process is that Houjin wants North Korea to become a minister, but North Korea refuses, Houjin attacks, North Korea After surrendering, three ministers, Hong Yihan, Yin Ji, and Wu Daji, who supported the War of Resistance, were captured in Shenyang and sacrificed bravely. They paid the price of their lives for the sake of going to the country. They were called Sanxueshi!) But before, they were frowning and troubled by themselves. The country had to succumb to Houjin. If it didn't support Mingren, it would have a conscience. If it supported Mingren, his head would become uneasy again.
What made him change his course?
"Because the Taiwan Guardian command made General Yan young, he is less than twenty years old!" Hong Yi Han said with full air.
It’s good to be young, just like the rising sun, which gives people great confidence and makes people have to be convinced.
He is already very good now, and the future is his. Without his words, he has been engaged in North Korea for at least 30 to 40 years. Ask North Korea if you are afraid?
...
Next, Hong Yihan took out a box of gifts from Yan Changwu to the North Korean people: potatoes! (Not only, there are many more)
Potatoes were introduced to China between the 16th and 17th centuries. Fujian Yuegang was used as a window for foreign trade. Some Chinese merchants brought the potatoes back, and the Southeast Mansion also planted them. Yan Changwu had planned to use potatoes to make vodka, but later discovered Sweet potatoes are more suitable for Taiwan, and the production of sweet potatoes is more and easier to live. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com potatoes are only grown in a small area.
But it is more advantageous to grow potatoes for North Korea. The climate in North Korea is suitable for growing potatoes.
"The high-yield potatoes and food for the people can solve the food problem in North Korea. General Yan said that he hopes that the people of our country will have food and rule stabilization. He will offer potatoes and planting technology in particular. He is also willing to send technical consultants to help our country grow. Increase the grain production in our country!" After hearing what Hong Yihan said, the Korean monarchs are excited, how good they are to go to the country, compared with the Jianzhou barbarians, it is a world of difference!
just... Hong Yihan conveyed Mingren’s statement: "Potatoes are the food of the minions!"
As Chen Zhongji said, sweet potatoes are food for pigs. If potatoes don’t know how to make them, such as a "stewed potatoes with water", it’s really unpalatable!
So what, nobles eat rice, Xiaomin eat potatoes, come on!
Potatoes are grown in North Korea, because of their high yields, they are easy to live, and many people live by it (there are many mountains in North Korea, it is not easy to grow rice and wheat, and potatoes grow as long as there is mud on the mountain). I am grateful for General Yan’s kindness. , Yan Changwu is the warlord, so the Koreans call potatoes "dudou"! (Warlord’s Potatoes)
...
After a lot of laying, the North Korean court signed a secret agreement with the Southeastern government to support Phi Island’s war. The North Korean money and food flowed continuously to Phi Island, which surprised the people of Phi Island. They had also received help from the Koreans before, but they did not. Now it is stable and large in quantity.
did a good deed without leaving a name, Zhang Shouyun on Phi Island publicly announced that it was the help of the Southeast Government, so Zhang Shouyun's work situation opened up.
...
As for Yan Changwu, he returned with a ship of leather goods and ginseng (received from Phi Island and North Korea). On the way back home, he visited the Edo Shogunate.
He is now an old friend of the Japanese people!
