Chapter 55: Ding You is in chaos again
When the rebellion of Li Menghe in North Korea was killed by his subordinates, it completely ended Li Menghe's unbeatable life.
And after the rebellion of Li Menghe was completely put down, His Royal Highness Seonjo of Joseon began to target those volunteer captains again.
There was a great deal of fear and a great deal of distrust of the volunteers.
Therefore, in the future battle against the Japanese invaders, only the Korean officials and soldiers themselves directly faced it.
So at this moment, the Korean court is also basically paralyzed, and another bad news reaches the Korean capital.
But His Royal Highness Xuanjo and the ministers were very shocked, but they didn't know what to do.
And this news is that since the negotiation between the Ming Dynasty and the Wako broke down, the lord of the Wako country, Lord Taiko, Toyotomi Hideyoshi.
He decided to send troops to invade Korea again, and at this moment, Toyotomi Hideyoshi also felt extremely humiliated by the national letter of the Ming Dynasty.
That's why he decided to let his Japanese soldiers carry out a ruthless invasion of North Korea again.
At this moment, before the Japanese army set out, the two major problems that Toyotomi Hideyoshi was worried about were military rations and Yi Sunsin.
And in the face of Konishi Yukicho, who failed in negotiations, Toyotomi Hideyoshi originally wanted to kill Konishi Yukicho.
But later, considering that Governor Konishi still had something to use, he wanted Governor Konishi to give a strategy to deal with Yi Sunsin.
This made Toyotomi Hideyoshi let Konishi go, and Konishi's strategy was to let Kato Kiyomasa serve as the bait of the first vanguard.
From the Japanese mainland, passing through Tsushima Island, it was reported that the army was about to march directly to the coast of the Korean mainland.
It was revealed to the Korean ministers and the Korean court, so that Konishi's plan could be perfectly implemented.
Therefore, at this moment, the envoys of the Ming Dynasty disregarded their lives and safety and used the news of the imminent invasion of Korea by the Japanese in the form of a national letter.
After passing it to Lord Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun), Liu Chenglong handed over the Ming State Credential to His Royal Highness Seonjo of Joseon.
At this moment, the Joseon Imperial Court and His Royal Highness Seonjo suddenly fell into shock, and His Royal Highness Seonjo was still worried about the scale of the Japanese at the same time.
also wants the Ming Dynasty to send more soldiers to save the Korean court in dire straits at the moment.
At this moment, there was a very heated discussion among the DPRK's Bibian Division, and the ministers had their own views on the current situation and future of the DPRK.
At this moment, the discussion was about whether it was offensive or defensive, and after a lot of disagreement, the ministers all had their own ideas.
The method of defending the fortified wall and defending against the danger was also officially proposed by Lord Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun) during this meeting.
At this moment, for the sake of popular support, the Korean court did not expand the news of the imminent invasion of the Japanese invaders.
Because the people's hearts that have been gathered with great difficulty at this moment will be shattered under the invasion of war.
And when Wang Shizi Guanghaijun learned that the Japanese were about to invade rampantly again, he also fell into a moment of contemplation.
And the advisors under the palace of Wang Shizi came up with a plan for Gwanghaejun at this moment to deal with the changing situation of the Korean dynasty.
In the north of the capital of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Wanli of the Ming Dynasty received two letters of state from the envoys of Korea and the Ming Dynasty at the same time.
However, the results of the two letters were very different, and the letters of Korea clearly stated that the Japanese were about to invade Korea.
In the Ming Dynasty, it is written that there will be no more wars, that everything in Korea is safe and sound, and that all the Japanese have withdrawn their troops.
In the face of these two completely different national letters, the content is of course absolutely different.
And at this moment, the people who were questioned were also the secretary of the Ministry of War, Shi Xing (Liu Weihua), and the envoy who personally went to the country of the Japanese to submit his credentials.
And at this moment, in the confrontation between the envoy and the secretary of the military department, after the envoy said that the letter of the state of Korea was a truly reliable result.
Emperor Wanli of the Ming Dynasty was very angry, so he sent the two adults to prison.
And at this moment, His Majesty the Wanli Emperor feels that it is okay to ignore state affairs, but it is absolutely wrong to dare to play with the Wanli Emperor between applause.
And at this moment, in Kyoto, the capital of the Japanese invaders, Konishi Yukinaga is undergoing the test of life and death.
Because Toyotomi Hideyoshi wanted Konishi Yukinaga to come up with a complete strategy to kill Yi Sunsin, Konishi wanted to spread the news of Kato Kiyomasa's invasion of Korea.
At the same time as reporting to the Korean court, Kato Kiyomasa led 7,000 Japanese soldiers across the sea to Korea.
And when this news is known to the Korean court, it will definitely be under the attention of His Royal Highness Seonjo.
A new edict will be issued to Yi Sunsin, asking him to send troops when Kato Kiyomasa crosses the sea.
Wipe out all Kato Kiyomasa's soldiers in the sea, so that he can not only avenge the Korean soldiers and civilians, but also bury all the vanguard troops of the Japanese in the sea.
While returning the souls of those brutal Japanese to the sea, it can greatly increase the morale of the Korean soldiers.
And when Yi Sunsin did not accept the edict of Seonjo of Joseon, he would suffer the thunderous wrath of His Highness Seonjo.
His Royal Highness Seonjo will definitely make Yi Sunsin lose his official position and resign, because at this moment, Seonjo can no longer tolerate people who do not obey his orders.
So it is enough to see how vicious Konishi's plan is, and in the country of the Japanese at this moment.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the lord of the Wako Kingdom, had made all preparations and summoned the lords and daimyos of the entire Wako Kingdom to gather in Kyoto.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi gave the final order in Kyoto, the capital of the Japanese Invaders, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi reviewed the five years of war that had been given to the Japanese Invaders.
and ask the lords and daimyo if they have any objections to his strategy of attacking the dynasty.
At this time, the lords and daimyo of the Wako Kingdom were very afraid of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's sword, so they all agreed with Toyotomi Hideyoshi's attack plan.
Therefore, at this moment, the country of the Japanese invaders has readjusted its military strength, and the first vanguard army led by Kato Kiyomasa is the first to kill Korea.
As the first group of Japanese soldiers to land in Ulshan Xisanpo by boat, Kato Kiyomasa at this moment was especially grateful to Toyotomi Hideyoshi for his appointment.
The Second Vanguard Army was led by Yukinaga Konishi, and the Third Vanguard Army was led by Kuromachi Nagamasa.
The Fourth Vanguard Army was led by Nabeshima Naoshige, and the auxiliary forces were commanded and led by Ukita Hideya.
Ukita Hideya, on the other hand, was the commander-in-chief of the left and right armies, and any lord who went to the front line had to follow Ukita Hideya's orders.
With a total strength of 140,000 Japanese soldiers, the Japanese army participated in the formation of military forces, although the number of Japanese troops this time was 30,000 fewer than the last time.
However, its aggressive posture has not diminished, and its ferocity has not diminished.
At this moment, Maeda Toshiie, who participated in the Imperial Council, also repeatedly emphasized that there would definitely be no negotiations and peace negotiations on this expedition.
It was not only the Korean officials and soldiers who were killed, but also the ordinary people of North Korea, who had their noses cut off, salted with salt and lime, and transported back to the country of the Japanese invaders.
It is clear that the bestial behavior of the country of the Japanese is outrageous, but it also makes an exception for North Korean technicians.
All the technicians who would be beneficial to the country of the Japanese were to be transported back to the country of the Japanese invaders, and the news of the imminent invasion of Korea by the country of the Japanese was also reported to the Korean court.
There was a heated debate between the Joseon court and the courtiers, and even in Yi Sunsin's military camp, there was a debate between pros and cons.
At this moment, Yi Sunsin was worried that His Royal Highness the Lord Seonjo would finally be confused by the vicious divisive plan and give the order to go out.
Then Yi Sunsin will be in a dilemma, and the truth is as Konishi Yukinaga predicted.
Yi Sunsin finally rejected the edict of His Royal Highness Seonjo of Joseon, and Yi Sunsin, who did not actively go on the expedition, will also face impeachment.
After Kato Kiyomasa officially crossed the Korean Strait and arrived in North Korea, he met with Yukinaga Konishi.
Under the attention of Ukita Hideya, Kiyomasa Kato and Yukinaga Konishi re-spoke and hugged each other.
It also shows that the contradiction between Konishi Yukicho and Kato Kiyomasa was also directly resolved at this time.
And at this moment in the Korean court, the impeachment of Yi Sunsin has been presented to His Royal Highness Seonjo.
The officials, who had always been at odds with Lord Yoo Sung-ryong (Cho Kun), all stood up and verbally attacked Lord Yi Sun-sin.
Although there were also several ministers who were using their lives to save Yi Sunsin, they were in a confrontation between the ministers of the positive and the opposing sides.
At this moment, Lord Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun) didn't say a word, so His Royal Highness Xuanzu asked about Lord Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun) at this moment.
Lord Yoo Sung-ryong (Zhao Kun) is also trying his best to protect General Yi Sun-sin, because no one knows Lee Sun-sin's personality better than Yoo Cheng-long (Zhao Kun).
However, His Royal Highness Seonjo decided to escort Yi Sunsin to the capital city of Hanyang for trial, and at this moment, the Japanese finally removed the last obstacle of Yi Sunsin's attack on Korea.
And without Yi Sunsin to hinder the Japanese invaders, the Japanese soldiers seemed to enter no man's land and slaughtered into the hinterland of Korea.
And when the Japanese army was about to lead hundreds of warships into the Korean waters, they would face an attack by the general Yi Sunsin.
And whether Yi Sunsin can survive in the Joseon court, the interrogation of His Royal Highness Seonjo and the ministers depends on the fate of Yi Sunsin.
Whether or not Yi Sunsin can lead the Korean naval army to a greater victory depends on Yi Sunsin's command ability.
