Chapter 428: North Korea

Everyone looked at each other at a loss, they hadn't gotten the news of the Chu Wangfu yet, and when they were struggling with how to make a decision, a spy below reported that the Chu Wangfu had been captured, and all the members in it had been executed. Yes, it is said that he who was put to death, who was put to death at the place of execution. Dozens of heads hung outside the city gates, which was the consequence of the rebellion, and for the other palaces that chose to surrender, not a single person was killed.

In this way, Wan Qianyang's army began, absorbing the original yamen army and the palace's own army, for this less than four months, Wan Qianyang's army has occupied most of the Ming Dynasty, and only the Jingshi region is now the Beijing-Tianjin region, Shanxi region, Yunnan, Tibet region, among which these areas have also begun to claim to be independent from the outside world, and most areas of Shanxi and Hebei are still occupied by peasant rebels.

At the same time, warships were constantly sailing from England to the whole world, and some of the foreigners who were doing business in China were returning to their countries to report the situation, because although the state power was changing, they found that there was very little real fighting, as if it were a peaceful handover, and the merchants were doing business and the common people were living. It's just that the change of the yamen and the replacement of officials make everyone get together from time to time and burst into cheers. In front of each yamen, there were newly posted notices, and in front of each notice, there were many people around and listening to someone read it.

When everyone was talking about what dynasty this 'China' was and who the emperor was, everyone shook their heads in unison, and when asked about the guards, they all got the saying that they would know when the time came!

But all of them praised these notices and the disciplined army, and the common people and merchants were all surprised that a change of power did not occur without a single sign and destruction, which was in stark contrast to those peasant uprisings, first of all, the merchants and the rich people especially disliked the peasant rebels, because they were aimed at these rich people, and the civilians were very happy that Wan Qianyang's army never disturbed the people, and they did not want their peaceful life to be disrupted. In times of chaos, who can guarantee that they will not be robbed by bad people.

And several major families in Europe have also gotten the news, of course, this does not belong to the relationship with Wan Qianyang, all the families that have a cooperative relationship with Wan Qianyang now have an important position in the English Parliament, and they have also been notified in advance, and this kind of information is beneficial news for them, which is equivalent to them getting more powerful assistance, Wan Qiyang only helps them and does not destroy, because as far as Douglas is concerned, in addition to business, they are powerful allies, And now the Isle of Man also belongs to their own family territory of Douglas, and according to Wan Qianyang's proposal, it has become an independent country, but now Wan Qianyang has not yet announced the establishment of a country, and there will be a flag on the Isle of Man at that time, of course, Wan Qianyang proposed to absolutely not interfere in its internal affairs. There are many other small European countries in the same way, and this is a reflection of the importance of mastering economic and maritime hegemony.

Wan Qiyang was in his own house in Chengdu, and when he saw that Bao'er, Xiaoqing, Si Qi'er and Zhu Yuan's stomachs had some obvious changes, he often taught them how to exercise and prenatal education in advance, and Xing'er and Xiaoqian, An'er and Vivian, among the four of them, Xiaoqian was also diagnosed as pregnant, so naturally this is the focus of care.

But for the other three people, Wan Qiyang is even more concerned, and has been dispelling their concerns, especially Xing'er, so that she must not have a burden in her heart, because the more she goes with the flow, the easier it is to get pregnant. Only An'er alone doesn't care, she thinks it's best to go with the flow as Wan Qiyang said, and she sees that Bao'er is now incapacitated, and she is really not used to her current cultivation, she is not worried at all about whether she is pregnant or not, anyway, she feels that Wan Qianyang's love for everyone will not change because she has children.

"Husband, will our cultivation affect the conception of a child?" An'er and Wan Qiyang suddenly asked when they were cultivating together.

"Huh? An'er, why did you suddenly ask this, do you want children too? Wan Qiyang was also a little surprised, and An'er would ask him this question.

"No, I asked you this question when I suddenly thought of it! Do you know the answer? An'er still has nothing to say!

"I think it should be more or less influential, and there should be a kind of exercise that we men and women practice together, but this kind of exercise may be lost, anyway, as long as you are pregnant when we cultivate, then maybe our child will be the most harmful, anyway, let it be, what do you think?" Wan Qiyang also never hid anything from An'er.

"Oh! I agree with what my husband said! Hehe, husband, I'm really happy to be with you! Wan Qiyang actually blushed when he heard An'er say this, and he knew where An'er thought!

"Hahaha, An'er, I also feel different about being with you, hehe, An'er, how can it be more comfortable for us to study and study when we have time?" Wan Qiyang smiled evilly.

"Nasty, husband, you know what I'm thinking! Okay, breakfast! ”

An'er ran away with a red face first!

After breakfast, Wan Qiyang received a summary of information from all over the country, one of which was from the Korean Peninsula, when the fleet patrolled in the East China Sea, he received a letter claiming to be an envoy of the Korean government, which said that the Emperor Taiji of the Later Jin Dynasty threatened the North Korean to join forces with him to attack Beijing, and at the end of the letter it was noted that they expressed their gratitude to us for ruling the Japanese people, because they were also constantly suffering from the harassment of the Japanese people, and they also knew that Wan Qiyang's fleet was quite powerful in the background and was willing to surrender to them, but the condition is to remove the threat of Houjin.

When Wan Qiyang saw this information, he also remembered a historical event, "The Ming Dynasty has maintained friendly diplomatic relations with the Joseon Dynasty for more than two hundred years. In 1392, King Taejo of the Joseon Dynasty Lee Sung-gye was proclaimed king, and Taejo of the Ming Dynasty gave him the title of "Joseon". The two countries established suzerain-vassal relations. During the reign of Ming Chengzu, Ming Chengzu officially bestowed the title of King of Joseon. The Joseon Dynasty adopted a policy of "big things" for the Ming Dynasty. In 1592, Japan invaded Korea. Myojinzong sent troops to fight against the Japanese army, and in 1598 he completely defeated the Japanese army. The Ming army sent troops twice to fight side by side with the Korean army and civilians, and won the war, which also wrote a glorious page in the history of relations between the two countries. The Joseon Dynasty saw the Ming Dynasty's move as a "grace of reconstruction". At the end of the Ming Dynasty, with the rise of the Jurchen people in the northeast, there were subtle changes in the relations between the two countries. In 1636, Huang Taiji forced the Joseon Dynasty to sever its suzerain-vassal ties with the Ming Dynasty. However, the Joseon Dynasty still had its heart towards the Ming Dynasty and used the Chongzhen era name to miss the Ming Dynasty for more than 300 years. For 300 years, the Ming Dynasty and Korea basically maintained a relationship of correspondence and envoys. In February of the seventh year of the Apocalypse (1627, the first year of Later Jin Tiancong), Huang Taiji fought without declaring war, and sent Amin and others to lead more than 30,000 Eight Banner soldiers into Korea, and captured Yizhou, Dingzhou and other places. The Joseon king, Yi Liang, fled to Ganghwa Island and sent envoys to the Amin garrison to sue for peace. Under strong military pressure from the Later Jin, the Korean government was forced to sign the "Gangdu Peace Treaty", which essentially severed the ties between Korea and the Ming Dynasty. In December of the ninth year of Chongzhen (1636, the first year of Chongde in the Qing Dynasty), Huang Taiji used the second time against North Korea under the pretext of "helping Ming harm me". Huang Taiji led an army of 100,000 to cross the Yalu River and head straight to the capital of Korea. In January of the following year, the Later Jin soldiers besieged the capital, and the Joseon king Yi Liang retreated to Namhansan Fortress, and the Later Jin soldiers surrounded the city, forcing the Joseon king to surrender and sign an alliance under the city. Korea severed all contact with the Ming Dynasty, paid tribute to the Qing Dynasty, and became a vassal under the control of the Qing Dynasty. At this point, the Ming Dynasty and Korea ended the relationship of envoys. ”

It seemed that this time had been advanced, and he also needed to show his prestige in front of Huang Taiji, so he sent three warships patrolling the East China Sea to the Sea of Japan and one to the Yellow Sea to support Korea, and at the same time, because Wan Qiyang's colonization plan for Korea was also on the agenda.
