Chapter 92: Stabilizing North Korea (3)

Kaegyong is the current capital of North Korea, and Li Fangguo had moved the capital to Seoul for a time, because Seoul was Li Fangyuan's base camp, and then moved back.

Li Fangyuan staged a coup d'Γ©tat and imprisoned Li Fangguo in the deep palace, and only Li Fangyuan's voice was left in the court.

The Ming army arrived at the Yalu River, only five hundred miles away from Kaijing, this distance, once the river was crossed, it would not take three days for the Jurchen cavalry to hit Kaijing!

"Evacuate Kaijing immediately and go to Seoul."

Li Fangyuan started the army as a young man, and he had a plan in his heart. The time when the Ming army arrived at the Yalu River was two days ago, which means that the Yalu River had definitely been crossed at this time, and it was impossible to say that its vanguard had even crossed the Ping'an Road. There are only 20,000 people in Kaijing City, and the army is in Seoul, the base camp, and it is simply unrealistic to fight the Ming army in Kaijing.

And Seoul is only a hundred miles away from Kaegyung, and the rapid march will be there in one day.

"Dajun, Kaijing is an important city, and if you give up Kaijing, it will be difficult to take it back in the future."

Some ministers persuaded bitterly that giving up Kaegyong is equivalent to giving up half of North Korea, and more importantly, Kaegyeong, as the former Goryeo Dynasty and the current capital of North Korea for hundreds of years, has gathered a lot of wealth, and it is naturally impossible to take it away in a hasty retreat, and even if it returns in the future, it has already been emptied, and the Ming people have been cheapened in vain.

"I can't keep it."

Li Fangyuan is doing things vigorously and resolutely, and his cronies have even gone to gather troops and horses.

"There are only 20,000 people in Kaijing, let's say that fighting with the Ming army, it is those three Jurchens, we can't beat them, plus the Ming army has the advantage of gunpowder, even if we go to Seoul to transfer troops now, when we come, it is estimated that Kaijing has been broken."

The Ming army is only 30,000 people, Li Fangyuan firmly believes that the Ming army does not dare to go deep, although the North Korean army is only 70,000 or 80,000, but at any time can pull a group of strong men out of the people, the Ming army really dares to go lightly, he Li Fangyuan has fought for decades, he has the confidence to eat this Ming army!

"But Benjun needs a messenger to hold off the Ming army for me."

Li Fangyuan glanced at the court hall and said, "Go to the Ming army camp to beg and surrender, and tell the Ming army that this is my Korean family matter, the king is weak and sick, and he is sick and sick. ”

North Korea is too small, not half the size of Liaodong, and there is no qualification to exchange space for time.

In addition, Li Chenggui started his military coup d'Γ©tat, and he had a deep grip on the generals, and the army directly under the entire North Korea was only a few tens of thousands, and the localities were all government military systems, so it was simply unrealistic to expect them to hold back the Ming army.

"Bring more gold and silver and goods, and bow your knees with humility."

Since ancient times, the Han people boasted that they were in the upper kingdom of the Celestial Empire, and they had a good face, as long as their posture was lowered, even if they could not let the Ming army division, with Li Fangyuan's understanding of the Ming people, the leading generals would definitely send people back to Nanjing to ask for the will again, and they would pull it off.

Seeing that Li Fangyuan had made up his mind, everyone had no words to persuade them, so they had to hurriedly leave the palace and return to the house to pack their bags with a bitter face.

Li Fangyuan turned back to the harem and found Li Fangguo, who was under house arrest.

With an angry face, he said, "Brother Wang, why do you want to communicate with Mingren?" Don't you know that your brother is against the wall and outside to defend against his insults? No matter what we do, it's also our own family matter, what is the reason for Brother Wang to ask the Ming army to enter my North Korea to help you restore? ”

The latter snorted coldly and turned his head away from Li Fangyuan.

"What's the matter? Are you planning to kill me? If a prisoner kills his brother and rebels against human morality, he will not end well. ”

"!"

Li Fangyuan shouted angrily.

"If I am really ambitious, why should I force my father to take the throne with you? His father was old and faint, and he preferred his youngest son to make him the crown prince, how different is this behavior from Qin Shi Huang? Does Brother Wang want to see me die as Joseon II? If I, Li Fangyuan, wanted to be the king, I wouldn't have let my father pass the throne to you in the first place, because you were incompetent, so I had to kill each other. ”

"Am I incompetent?"

Li Fangguo seemed to have been insulted, and his face turned red angrily and pointed at Li Fangyuan.

"Who are you to call me incompetent?"

"Groveling and Mingren, fearing the Jurchen barbarian tribe like tigers and beasts, isn't this called incompetence?"

Li Fangyuan was disdainful, "My father is a cowardly and cowardly person, the Ming people are not canonized, and he has held the title of 'acting Korean state affairs' for several years, and he doesn't even dare to sit on the throne!" In the border land, the Ming people, the Jurchens and my North Korea are mixed, because my father is cowardly, and my people are bullied and dare not resist, this is a great shame!

I advised my father to recruit more troops and horses, and garrison the border to drive the Jurchens on the border, but he was afraid that the military generals would sit big, and finally took his throne, which was really ridiculous and generous.

And you, who are worse than your father, only know how to read the books of the Ming people every day, learn the way of Confucianism, and want to rule the country, can you rely on a few words? Can a three-inch tongue educate the brutal Jurchens on the border?

They obey the words of the lackeys of the Ming people because they can't beat the Ming people! But will they listen to us? Occasionally, the women in our border areas have been plundered, and you send someone to say, which time will you come back?

Three thousand miles of splendid rivers and mountains, my North Korea may not have the opportunity to turn into a dragon, but you are like a dog, your backbone! North Korea is in your hands, and sooner or later it will be destroyed! ”

Li Fangguo's face was red when she was scolded, but she was powerless to fight back, so she had to say hard.

"With such ambition of yours, North Korea is doomed to destruction in your hands, if you dare to provoke the Ming people on the holiday, provoke the king to crusade, see how you deal with it."

After speaking, he muttered, "The Ming people are invincible divisions, destroying Meng Yuan and chasing the enemy, even Nak Chu, the dignified Captain Meng Yuan, didn't he also kneel in front of the Ming army and beg for surrender?" The Jurchen is a Daming eagle dog, let's fight back, but we don't know that it depends on the owner to beat the dog. ”

"How can you say such a thing, it really makes me sick."

Li Fangyuan was dumbfounded, "How can you be so cowardly, I look at the history books of various countries, and there is only a spineless king like you, only the Zhao and Song dynasties!"

I have a mouth of millions in North Korea, but Zhan Erlang can pull up hundreds of thousands in an instant, thousands of years ago, the Han Emperor Sui Yang sent troops to come, the ancestors according to the location, attack logistics, scuttle sea ships, defeated the Sui army, proving that the so-called Celestial Empire is not invincible, the people of this land are wise and brave, united as one, never thought that the creation of heaven and earth was unpredictable, and you were created such a thing! ”

Li Fangyuan didn't bother to reprimand Li Fangguo again, changed his cronies and tied him up, and waved his hand, "Bring the king back to Seoul." ”

took orders left and right, escorted Li Fangguo out of the palace, Li Fangyuan drew his sword in his hand and broke into the forbidden palace, facing Li Fangguo's princesses.

"How can I in North Korea endure the humiliation of the queen and concubines and others, the queen is the mother of the Korean nation, if she is defiled and innocent, everyone in the world will be shameless, the Han people can bear the shame of Jingkang, and my Korean sons can not stand it!"

After that, he stabbed Li Fangguo's concubines to death in the palace with a sword, and then sandwiched two Li Fangguo's young children under their armpits and left the palace quickly.

That night, a Jurchen scout arrived at the city of Kaijing, but only saw an empty city!
