Chapter 236 Banner slave family, domestic and foreign affairs(2/2)
Flintlock muskets, artillery, gunpowder, ships... The Nanming government either borrowed, bought, or bartered to continuously equip and strengthen the army. On the basis of being optimistic about the future of Nanming, the British and French did not mind making money at the same time.
Give appropriate discounts to maintain a good relationship with Nanming.
The Manchus were supporting the Qing Dynasty alone. The Nanming's diplomacy was flexible and effective, constantly attracting and attracting allies. Siam provided food, Britain and France provided arms, Ryukyu, and Japan provided saltpetre and sulfur. Now another one will be added - North Korea.
The Lee Dynasty of Korea. It originally had a close relationship with the Ming Dynasty. After being forced to surrender after two military invasions by the Qing Dynasty, it never surrendered and paid close attention to the changes in China's political situation. The Southern Ming Dynasty rose again, and some ministers and intellectuals (Confucian scholars) were very
He was so excited that he even went to King Shu and requested that he take advantage of the opportunity to raise troops for revenge.
Confucian scholars Luo Shuozuo, Zhao Xianqi, etc. successively submitted their edicts to the general idea: "The Ming army has occupied the south and is difficult to control, and Mongolia is not close to it. The world's events are imminent. We should take this opportunity to train troops and maintain food supply.
You can take revenge and avenge your shame, and you can protect the country and the people."
Of course, it was Zhu Yongxing who ordered the diplomatic contact with North Korea to test its attitude. But somewhat unexpectedly, North Korea responded enthusiastically. Not only did it agree to sell horses, but it also sent more than 500 horses to show its sincerity.
He also sent a secret envoy to Guangzhou to meet with him.
The secret envoy sent by North Korea was "Buyichen", which also shows that the King of North Korea was limited by his national strength. Although he supported Nanming, he was cautious and did not want to make his position public now.
But this "civilian" named Yin showed the anger of the Korean intelligentsia against the Qing Dynasty, as well as some bookish naivety and unrealistic talk on paper.
"Your Highness is wise and powerful, and has repeatedly defeated the Tartars. The trend of recovery is irresistible." Yin first congratulated Zhu Yongxing on his achievements, and then described the national humiliation suffered by North Korea in the past. Then he said that returning to North Korea could persuade the king to cooperate.
"Our country's elite soldiers and powerful arrows are known all over the world, and the cannons can fly pellets, which are enough to travel; we have to select thousands of soldiers, head to Yanshan in the north, and advance aggressively, hold their backs, and choke them; open the ocean all the way, and there is Huangmingshui
The teacher scratched his belly; he sent a message to Yan, Ji, the Yechun tribes north of the Liao River, the Japanese islands, Qingqi (Shandong), Huai Zhejiang (Anhui, Zhejiang) and other places, so that they would share the same hatred and get excited...
"
Zhu Yongxing blinked his eyes and thought: Isn't this nonsense? What kind of national power is North Korea? Is it too exaggerated? After a while, he smiled slightly and said: "I am very grateful to your country for your kindness. However, our army is not as good as the Tartars."
The captives are fighting for each other, and it is difficult to divide the troops to go north. How can your country bear the risk alone? Let's wait for a while, after our army regains the south of the Yangtze River, we will make a big effort together. At that time, your country's help will be our army's recovery of Youyan in the north.
, it is indispensable to wipe out the Tartars."
"Your Highness cares about our country, and the foreign ministers are indescribably grateful." Yin Zhili was very respectful and said sadly: "After Ding Mao and Bingzi's chaos, our country and the Manchu Qing Dynasty have a deep hatred as deep as the sea, and they are always thinking of revenge. As long as Your Highness needs it, I*
*The people are determined to act according to the order, Bo Zhu You Shen, and invite soldiers for the world!"
"That's very good." Zhu Yongxing nodded in appreciation, pondered for a while, and said: "Your country can tolerate it for the time being and help secretly. In the battle in the north, the cavalry will take precedence. Your country can buy horses for our army in Liaodong. In addition, please recruit your confidants.
Guard Jeju Island, clear away the idlers, use the island to raise horses and use it as a place for communication between the two sides. For the sake of confidentiality, people coming and going can disguise themselves and do business so as not to be noticed by the Manchus."
"This is an excellent proposal. The foreign minister will make sure to facilitate this matter as soon as possible when he returns." Yin agreed happily.
"Is there a pro-Qing faction in your country?" Zhu Yongxing asked with a smile but not a smile: "If you need the power of the emperor to eliminate them, you can tell them."
Yin's face turned slightly red and he said with a shy face, "Why bother Your Highness? My king can handle it himself."
The two invasions of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties not only brought serious disasters to the Korean people, but also caused great changes in the political structure of North Korea. The Qing Dynasty took over the Central Plains, and the leaders of the Gongxi faction who were pro-Qing obtained political leadership positions. However, North Korea at that time
Although it showed a pro-Qing side, for the rulers of the Qing Dynasty, North Korea was still a sword stuck in the back.
