All the military generals in the capital of the eight provinces of Korea were appointed by the central government, and when these officers were recalled to the capital, they were controlled by Lu Shunde. Because the family members were all in the capital, and even the king had a will, most of them did not dare to oppose it, and accepted the people sent by the king to take over the local military and political power again.

There were also a few people who were unwilling and wanted to flee the capital, but this was just a waste of gunpowder for the captive army, and they were all killed. Most of them are people from the Jin family, and at this time, the head of the Jin family has been replaced by Jin Wengen, they received the instructions of the Jin family to control all the military and political affairs in various places, and Lu Shunde sent the captive army to the military and political garrison of the Eighth Avenue to take over the defense, and took the opportunity to occupy strategic places.

Naturally, there are a group of local township officials are native villagers, and their families are not in the capital, and the officials appointed by the capital led the captive army to take over the defense, but were resisted by the other party, because of the outbreak of fierce conflicts, and even the group of Korean natives led the township soldiers to occupy the city, but only a few hundred people led the Korean Central Army to attack, under the repeated attacks of artillery and muskets, the township soldiers quickly collapsed, and all the opponents were killed, and even their families were captured as slaves by the Central Army who took advantage of the fire and looted as slaves and sold everywhere.

Lu Shunde did not stop this, but he asked these prisoners of war to be sent to some coal mines in China and northern Korea to work as miners.

At this time, the credentials officially handed over by the Kim clan of Korea to the Chinese Empire also arrived in Seonggyeong, officially representing Korea as a vassal to the Empire, expressing their intention of submission and submission and their willingness to be loyal to the Empire for generations.

It didn't take long for the domestic Shengjing side to finally send a holy decree to canonize Kim Wengen as King Shun and act as the nominal king of Joseon on behalf of the Lee family, waiting for the official coronation and canonization ceremony a month later. Jin Wengen was both excited and disappointed, disappointed that for some reason, the emperor of the Celestial Empire did not directly crown him as the king of Joseon, but only a king of Shun, isn't this a slap in the face, even if it is a slap in the face, it will be officially crowned in a month, which makes him depressed. However, what was exciting was that the army of the Celestial Empire did not embarrass him too much, although they did not hand over Jin Zuogen to him for disposal, but they still made him the head of the Jin family, and they were also ready to give him the meaning of becoming the king of Joseon. In just one month, he will be able to become the rightful king of Joseon, which has been sealed by the suzerain, not that he is self-reliant. The key thing is that if you rely on the backer of the Celestial Empire, even if there is any opposition in the future, you will not be afraid. The reason why Li Yu and Jin Zuogen fell to such a fate was because they did not rely on the Heavenly Empire. Therefore, although Jin Wengen was not very satisfied with the holy decree of the Celestial Empire, he did not dare to complain at all, and just looked forward to the rapid passage of a month.

However, it backfired, just after ten days, Jin Wengen suddenly found that the people around him had some strange eyes on him, until one day, his cronies ran to report: "Oh no, oh no, there is a rumor spread everywhere inside and outside the capital, saying that Li Yu, the last king of the original Li Dynasty, was killed by you." It is said that you betrayed the lord for glory, sought power and usurped the throne, colluded with the Celestial Empire army, and killed Li Yu and the head of the Kim family as Neiying, and you are a traitor to the Koreans.

Jin Wengen was taken aback, how could such a thing happen at such a critical juncture? Who is spreading rumors, this intention is to tear down his platform. In any case, he suspected that it was the remnants of the Li family and the local township officials who were left behind, so he immediately ordered: "Send troops to this king and arrest and execute those who spread rumors!" It's nothing more than those Li family relics and local township officials, who have cut off their heads for this king, to see how they still make trouble! ”

"King, we can't do it!"

"Why can't you do it?" Jin Wengen shouted: "How many troops are needed, this king will send them to you!" If it is not enough, this king will go to ask General Lu, with him to come forward, the troops of the Celestial Empire can be sent out, and there is something that can't be done? ”

"The king, the general, they have already come, not to help, but, but to ......" Before the cronies finished speaking, the door was kicked open, and a large group of soldiers rushed in and surrounded Jin Wengen.

The leader is none other than Lu Shunde.

Jin Wengen was taken aback and asked, "General, what's the matter?" ”

Lu Shunde's face turned pale, and he lowered his face and asked, "Jin Wengen, what's the matter with you?" Those rumors outside say that Li Yu was killed by you! Now the people of the whole of Korea are dissatisfied with you, and it is a loss that the general wrote a letter to His Majesty to guarantee you as the acting king of Korea and entrust Korea to you, and now that it is like this, how do you let General Ben explain to Your Majesty? ”

Seeing that Lu Shunde was angry, Jin Wengen was panicked, and repeatedly apologized and requested: "General, you know that the subordinates are loyal to the empire and loyal to the saints. Those traitors slandered the subordinates, they are dissatisfied with the empire, and they are dissatisfied with you, the general, this is for the subordinates, you have to make the decision for me! ”

"Humph! Jin Wengen, you still dare to quibble, your subordinates have already confessed, saying that Li Yu was killed by you. Besides, even if you didn't kill you, now that so many North Korean people are against you, can you continue to be the king? Lu Shunde sneered: "The empire chose you to be the king because you are loyal to the empire and your reputation is still likely to convince the public, who else can blame you for being like this now?" ”

As he spoke, Lu Shunde waved his hand and shouted: "Come on, take this murderer who killed the king of Joseon, Li Yu, into custody!" ”

Suddenly, a group of fierce soldiers swarmed up, tied up the shouting Jin Wengen, and gagged him with a rag.

The next day, a notice was posted at the gates of the capital, saying that the head of the Kim family, Kim Wengen, not only turned his back on the original Joseon king Li Yu, but also killed the king of the Lee dynasty and the royal family who were originally canonized by the Celestial Dynasty, and his conduct was dirty. He specially captured the original head of the Jin family, Jin Zuogen, and the current head of the family, Jin Wengen, and at the same time ordered a comprehensive conquest of the Jin family and his henchmen, and called on the people of all parts of North Korea to declare war on the Jin family and his henchmen, and avenge the late lord Li dynasty!

The key point is in the end: anyone who kills or captures a direct member of the Jin family will be rewarded with 100 mu of land, and those who are from the side clan will be rewarded with 50 mu of land, and those who report or capture Jin's henchmen will also be rewarded with 20 to 50 mu of land.

On behalf of the Chinese Empire, Lu Shunde announced that in order to completely eliminate the exploitation and oppression of the Korean people by the powerful Kim family, and completely abolish the Korean state, from now on, the entire Korea will be under the direct jurisdiction of the Chinese Empire, and Korea will become two provinces of the empire! The people of Korea will henceforth be the official citizens of the Chinese Empire, enjoy the same glory as the subjects of the Chinese Empire, and will be subjects of His Majesty the Great Emperor, as long as they are loyal to the Chinese Empire, loyal to the Holy Lord, and willing to pay taxes and serve, each of them can receive an average of 10 acres of land.

At the same time, this notice was posted all over the Eighth Avenue and state capitals throughout North Korea, and for a while, the whole of North Korea was boiling. It can be said that with the end of the Lee dynasty, the power of the Andong Kim family, and many other local families such as the Zhao family, the Li family, the Choi family, and the Park family, grew into a powerful force, and more than half of the land in the entire Korea was occupied by these local wealthy families, and many people had no land to cultivate, so they could only become tenants and domestic servants of these local wealthy families. They also resisted several times, but each time they were suppressed by the local government with heavy troops and even the Lee family and the Kim family representing the entire Joseon Dynasty, but now, the times have changed, and the original strength of the entire North Korea is also the poor Kim family and other powerful slaves, originally because of the collapse of the Lee dynasty fled to the small half, and the rest now heard the content of this notice, they fled one after another, and the soldiers were not appropriate, and they fought each other to kill a person they usually hated and reported that they had killed a person from the Kim family to ask for a reward.

For a time, North Korea's original forces quickly collapsed, half of the casualties were few, and more than half of the remaining ones fled home. The whole of Korea quickly turned into a vacuum.

The local wealthy clan led by the Anton Kim clan, although they wanted to resist, had already been captured by Lu Shunde's begging army, killing most of the unruly, and the remaining obedient young men went directly to the coal mines in northern Korea to dig coal.

As for the local township officials who resisted, after being killed, they seemed to have suddenly enlightened, and they expressed their willingness to return to the empire and become the subjects of the Chinese Empire. In this way, a Korea, within a few months, was annexed by the Chinese Empire, officially became a part of the empire, and all the Korean people became the subjects of the empire.

Half a month later, the Shengjing side officially sent a holy decree, declaring Korea to be the two provinces of the Chinese Empire, with the central axis of the Han River as the boundary, divided into two provinces, the Southern Dynasty Province and the Northern Dynasty Province, and canonized Lu Shunde as the temporary Korean governor, temporarily in charge of the two provinces, responsible for the military and political power of the entire Korea.
