Chapter 32: Hard Resistance

Just when the capital of North Korea Hanyang was lost without a fight, the lord of North Korea actually went to Bihoikan after hiding from the war.

After that, in order to better avoid the war, the capital had to be moved again, and the repeated relocation of the capital brought a lot of troubles and problems.

At that time, the Korean Jeolla Provincial Inspector Yi Xun originally led the army to King Jin, but after hearing that the capital Hanyang was lost, he led the army to withdraw.

At this moment, the news of the capture of most of the cities in Korea was transmitted to the Ming Dynasty, and the military department Shangshu Shixing (Liu Weihua) was very shocked after hearing it.

Then he immediately told the Wanli Emperor, who was lazy at that time, the war situation in Korea at this moment, and when His Majesty the Wanli Emperor learned that Korea was invaded, he did not think so.

actually said that he wanted Lord Shi Xing (Liu Weihua) to send troops to encircle and suppress North Korea and the Japanese Invaders.

At this moment, the Ming army is encircling and suppressing the rebellion in the south, because the Ming Dynasty is always in a state of defeat when encircling and suppressing Yang Yinglong at this moment.

Therefore, it is a little hasty to send troops to support North Korea at this moment, so Lord Shi Xing (Liu Weihua) suggested that sending people to North Korea to investigate the right way first.

So Emperor Wanli of the Ming Dynasty agreed to Lord Shi Xing (Liu Weihua) and sent someone to inquire about the basic news and then reported to Emperor Wanli.

It was in this context that His Royal Highness Seonjo of North Korea fled the war to Pyongyang, and at this moment, Wang Shizi also followed Seonjo to Pyongyang.

However, due to the continuous pressing of the front line, His Royal Highness Xuanzu had no choice but to start moving the capital to the north again.

So he took a group of people and others to retreat to the great north of Korea, so they soon arrived at the place of Jinqiao Station.

At Jinqiao Station, as the dismissed Lord Lee San-hae (Bi Chao), he persuaded Joseon Seonjo not to give up Lord Yoo Sung-ryong (Cho Kun).

Because this is because the two classes of courtiers are obsessed with fame, and lose the opportunity and purpose of truly enriching the country and strengthening the army.

But Master Li Shanhai (Bi Chao), who was the leader of the Dongren before, has been living in the whirlpool of government and government.

All his life, he was very honest in handling official affairs, especially in the selection of talents, but after the war, he was also deposed from the court at this moment.

This time, the leader of the Dongren was deposed from the court, and the only strength and sphere of influence of the Dongren were dealt an unprecedented blow.

At this moment, it can be said that the strength of the Dongren has been completely cleared out of the Korean court, and only a few loyal ministers of the Westerners are still serving in the court.

At this moment, there are about 50,000 Korean soldiers in Jeolla Province, and they are rushing to the area where Seonjo of North Korea is located to prepare for King Qin's rescue.

But at this moment, there was a sudden change in the North Korean army, and there was an irreconcilable contradiction between the two commanders.

There was a quarrel between the capital marshal Kim Myeong-won and the deputy marshal Shin Su because they did not defend the capital and fled when they saw the Japanese invaders.

Therefore, the order of Marshal Kim Myeong-won was also invalid in the barracks of the application at this moment.

Deputy Marshal Shen also refused to carry out any orders from the capital marshal Kim Myeong-won, just as the two marshals shirked each other's responsibilities for the loss of the capital.

Han Ying-in, an important minister from the side of Joseon Seonjo, appeared in the tent of Marshal Kim Myeong-won with the edict of His Royal Highness Seonjo of Joseon.

At this moment, Han Yingyin has been promoted to the provincial inspector, and there is a lot of contradiction between Han Yingyin and Marshal Kim Myung-won after the new inspector.

Because at this moment, Han Yingyin thinks in his heart that Marshal Kim Myeong-won can't even manage a deputy commander, let alone manage the North Korean officers and army.

This is also one of the reasons why His Royal Highness Seonjo of North Korea does not trust Kim Myeong-won, and Shen Xu, the deputy marshal, has the courage and strategy to rob and kill more than 100 Japanese soldiers near his military camp.

And at this moment, the very cunning Marshal Kim Myeong-won sent a letter to His Royal Highness Seonjo of Joseon,

It shows that in the battle to defend the capital, it was entirely the responsibility of the deputy marshal to declare the war, and the rebellion of all the defenders who did not obey the dispatch led to the rebellion of all the defenders who fled when they saw the Japanese invaders.

And at this moment, Seonjo is going to kill the deputy marshal Shin Su, who is loyal to the Korean court and loyal to himself, just because Kim Myeong-won has a warrant.

But at this moment, the good news of Marshal Shen came from the area of Liangzhou, and General Shen Xu, who was originally loyal and good, was beheaded at this moment.

This may be because Seonjo is looking for a scapegoat in order to lose the capital, but the wanton killing of loyal ministers has also contributed to the instability of the Korean situation.

During the same period, due to the presence of the famous Korean general Yi Sun-sin, he defeated the logistics and supply military forces of the Japanese invaders.

Therefore, at this moment, Kato Kiyomasa, the general of the Japanese army, who was worried that he would be surrounded from top to bottom, wanted to lead his army to attack the Imjin River alone, so as to capture His Royal Highness King Seonjo, the lord of Korea, alive in advance.

But at this moment, Governor Konishi is not stupid, and he will lead the army to the Imjin River after agreeing with Kato Kiyomasa.

As a result, on the banks of the Imjin River in North Korea, the Korean defenders of 13,000 people, led by Han Yong-in and Kim Myeong-won, have been stationed in the north of the Imjin River.

And Li Huan's 50,000 soldiers of the three kings of the Qin Dynasty are also marching towards Hanyang, the capital of Korea, and the battle of the Imjin River will be a very important historical battle.

It is the best opportunity to turn the tide of the Korean war, but at this moment in the North Korean military camp, Han Yingyin can't command the generals under Kim Myung Won, so Han Yingyin used the right given by Seonjo to kill Li Jue, who kept commanding.

Han Yingyin also took this opportunity to establish his military might, and anyone who dared to resist Han Yingyin's orders and dispatches would be killed.

So the key person who controls the fate of North Korea at this moment is only Han Ying-in, a reckless person.

At this moment, there is another volunteer leader Guo Zaiyou in Yizhou, North Korea, who leads General Sha Ye to collect and gather volunteers in the rear.

The system of attacking the logistical supply of the Japanese invaders, and the appearance of Guo Zaiyou brought great hope to the end of Joseon.

North Korea also fought back against the invasion of the Japanese in the process of difficult resistance, but the important battle of the Imjin River was about to be fought in Korea.

Whether or not North Korea can save its fate of defeat in the First Battle of Imjin depends on the military command ability of the Imjin River defenders, Han Young-in and Kim Myeong-won.

On May 14, 1592, the Japanese army began to deploy in the southern part of the Imjin River, and the Japanese army led by Kato Kiyomasa numbered as many as 23,000 people.

However, the Korean officers and troops led by Kim Myeong-won were only 13,000 people, but because the water level of the Imjin River was very deep, the boats that could cross the river were trapped in the vicinity of the North Korean officers and troops.

Therefore, Kato Kiyomasa could only sit and wait for the opportunity to rest in the south of the Imjin River for five days, so he pretended to retreat while waiting for hopelessness, but in fact was ambushed on the road of retreat.

However, at this moment, the Korean garrison general Han Yingyin insisted on sending troops to fight the Japanese invaders, so it led to the early defeat of the Imjin River Campaign.

Just after the defeat in the Battle of Imjin River, another tragic news to the Joseon Dynasty court and Joseon Seonjo was due to the commander of 50,000 troops of the Sandao supporting military force.

Due to the very light enemy, 50,000 soldiers were also in a very passive situation in the battle of surprise operations.

And seeing that the military force of 50,000 troops is about to fall into a passive situation, who will save the dying Joseon Dynasty.

Could it be that God really wants to abandon North Korea and ignore it? Now there is only one way to go, and that is to rescue the Ming Dynasty at His Royal Highness Seonjo of North Korea, where Pyongyang is located.

The Battle of the Imjin River and the campaign to support Hanyang in North Korea are about to continue in the territory of Korea.
