After all, Wang Kai was the lord of Goryeo, and although the empire had decided to completely include Goryeo in its territory, it still gave him the last dignity.

The three-foot white silk was the end of the last Goryeo king, and from then on Goryeo became the two provinces of the empire, which would be ruled and protected by the empire.

The empire's seizure of Goryeo naturally caused dissatisfaction among some Goryeo people, but it was a pity that the most powerful families in Goryeo, who were originally the backbone of the opposition force, were in a state of imminent destruction because they participated in the assassination of the emperor, so in the end it did not cause much commotion.

For those low-level people in Goryeo who do not have enough food and clothing, it is still a luxury for many people to become subjects of the empire.

A large amount of supplies were transported to Goryeo, and at such a time, it was necessary to give some benefits to the people at the right time, that is, to increase the favorability of the empire, but also to allow the survival of the Goryeo people who could not survive.

There were too many things to deal with to do such a big thing in Goryeo, but Li Namdu lost it to the Minister of the Interior Tyrion, and he himself led a large army to the line of Guju, Sunju, and Yuju, which were connected to the Jin Kingdom in the north of Goryeo.

Since the imperial army had been blocking Goryeo's land and sea routes to the north, many news of the recent events in Goryeo had not yet reached the Kingdom of Jin, and there were only more than 10,000 mixed troops stationed on this border line of the Kingdom of Jin.

According to the previous operational deployment of the Imperial Army, the western assault force was mainly composed of 50,000 soldiers of Sienna's Imperial Fifth Army and 30,000 marines of the Artemisian Yellow Sea Fleet.

The force on the east side consisted of 20,000 cavalry from Han Shizhong and 30,000 marines from the Pacific Fleet of the Qing Lady.

The 130,000 imperial army raided the unsuspecting defenders of the Jin Kingdom, and quickly killed the 10,000 Jin soldiers, and then Sienna led an army of 80,000 to the east of the Tokyo Road, while the 50,000 army led by Han Shizhong and Lady Qing attacked directly to the north.

The Imperial Army appeared from the north of Goryeo, and now the Jin Kingdom was really in trouble, not only did the defense line of the Great Wall with heavy troops exist in name only, but also the Imperial Army attacked the hinterland where there was no danger to defend.

The land area of Jinguo is not small, but there are great differences in economic development in different regions.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Jin State, the Jurchen people were still in a mixed system of fishing, hunting and farming, and the area that could provide food for the Jin State was still the Liao land of that year.

Although Jin Taizong had already begun to promote agriculture in the northeast during his reign, it was not something that could be easily changed overnight if he wanted to change the way of life of the people.

War is a very cruel act, it brings death, destruction and destruction, so any king wants to burn the flames of war on the soil of the enemy.

Now the 130,000 troops of the empire have appeared on the Tokyo Road of the Jin country unexpectedly, which is equivalent to entering the granary of the Jin country, and the consequences are too serious!

If some of the founding generals of the Jin State, such as Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Xiyin, who were brave and resourceful and had dealt with the empire, were still alive, then someone would inevitably expect this attack of the empire, but unfortunately, they were all killed by Jin Xizong.

The imperial army came out with surprise troops and invaded the hinterland of the Jin Kingdom, and after such a shocking news was transmitted back to Shangjing, it immediately scared the drunken Jin Xizong Wanyan to wake up.

If the imperial army was allowed to attack northward, it would be dangerous for the capital of the Jin Kingdom to go to Beijing, so Wanyan hurriedly summoned Wanyan Zonggan and ordered him to immediately destroy the imperial army that had entered the country.

Originally, Jin Xizong also planned to mobilize Wanyan Zongbi from the Great Wall defense line to come back, but his decision was desperately blocked by many courtiers, you must know that there are several major armies of the empire outside the Great Wall defense line, and if they are allowed to attack the country, then things will be even worse.

At this time, the Imperial Yellow Sea Fleet led by Asha had also arrived in the Whale Sea and began to attack the Jinguo towns along the coast.

As a guest of later generations, Li Nan was amazed by the guerrilla warfare that Taizu used to use, so all the generals in the army were well versed in this tactic.

Asha led the fleet of tens of thousands of land soldiers and soldiers, and flexibly adopted the 16-character formula of "the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy is stationed and disturbs us, the enemy is tired and I fight, and the enemy retreats and I pursue" to wantonly kill and destroy along the coastal zone.

When there were fewer soldiers and horses from the Jin Kingdom, Asha led the army to destroy them directly, and if there were too many enemies, they would directly withdraw to the sea.

Wanyan Zonggan, who was ordered to go out of Beijing to fight, did not pay attention to Asha in the eastern coastal area, but rushed straight to Tokyo Road in a hurry, because he knew that if this area that provided food for the Jin Kingdom was destroyed, even if these invading imperial troops were killed, it would be useless.

The empire had corresponding policies towards different countries and different peoples.

For example, small neighboring states such as Goryeo, Qingtang, and Tubo generally adopted a more moderate approach, while the Jin people who were at war with the empire were not among them.

The orders given to the commanders such as Sienna and Han Shizhong were not to drive north to attack Shangjing, the imperial capital of the Jin Kingdom, or to attack the Great Wall defense line from the rear, their task was to destroy and kill.

It can be said that since the establishment of the Chinese Empire, it has never issued such a cold order, so when he heard Li Nan say it himself, the main generals were a little shocked.

"The territory of the Jin Kingdom is vast and there are many soldiers, and the weakest place is that it has not been founded for a long time, and there is not enough resource reserves, so you have only one task."

"Destroy all the houses and farmland that appear in your field of vision, and kill all the resistance forces in the Jin Kingdom, whether they are soldiers or ordinary people!"

With such a bloody scorched earth order, the 130,000 imperial army began this journey of destruction......

In fact, there are still many people in the empire who oppose Li Nan and the cabinet's decision.

Most of these people were Confucian-trained scholars, and unlike the ordinary people of the empire, who only cared about their own farmland and shops, they also had their own opinions on the general situation of the country.

Since the empire annexed the entire Song Dynasty, there have been many scholars among the country's people, who, like Fu Tianqiu, wanted to add Confucianism to the empire's schools.

Li Nan recognized many ideas in Confucianism, such as loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faith, but he did not like Confucianism to turn the common people into humble gentlemen who repay grievances with virtue, because thousands of years of history have proved one thing, that is, foreigners cannot be trusted.

The big country in the Central Plains of China, it seems that in addition to the Han and Tang dynasties, there are many things that have been bullied by foreigners.

Back then, the Liao State bullied the Song State from time to time, as well as the Western Xia, Tubo, Qingtang, and even backward small countries like Jiaozhi, and Li Nan didn't want the Chinese Empire he established to become such a soft persimmon.

If there is chaos and all countries stand side by side, now is not the time to pity other foreign races, but the best time to conquer those countries, turn those foreign races into a member of the Chinese nation, and establish a Chinese empire that is unique in the world.

Li Nan thinks that the empire is tougher and crueler now, and when all the countries and aliens are incorporated into the empire, it is not too late to play gentle methods at that time, and after a few generations, these people of foreign races will subtly become the people of the empire.
