With the capture of Seoul by the Hean Army, and forced the other rebels to surrender, most of Korea has been under the control of the Ping An Army, in order to take over these lands, Zhou Zhong had to ask Zhengde for help, let him send more officials to manage the land of Korea, anyway, those rebels who returned to the Shun have already known that behind the Ping An Army is a governor of the Ming Dynasty is supporting, so they have no rejection of the Ming officials to take over their land, not to mention that the Ming can also bring them some life-saving food at this time.

The officials sent by Zhengde to Zhou Zhong are all capable people, although some of these people have problems with their personal morality, such as lust and greed for money, the most excessive guy After arriving in North Korea, he exchanged a few bags of grain for nearly twenty concubines, but these are not important, after all, those concubines are also willing, in this kind of troubled times, it is good to be able to eat a full meal, not to mention that they can also enjoy the happiness of the officials who came from the Ming Dynasty, and even their families will be wiped out.

It's not terrible to be lustful and greedy for money, anyway, they are all North Koreans, and Zhou Zhong doesn't care at all, not to mention that these greedy and lustful people are all personally selected by Zhengde, in order to vent their anger, after all, he still remembers the fake map of North Korea, and although these people have problems with morality, they are all good, at least in just a few months, most of the northern parts of North Korea controlled by the Pyongan Army have slowly settled down.

After settling the rear, Liu Tao and Li Anliang immediately decided to send troops to attack the Chungqing army, which had not been submitted to the rear, after all, they had defeated Li Long and occupied Seoul. The righteousness of Korea has already been achieved. The claims issued also carry the majesty of royal power. However, Qi Yanming's Chungqing army did not comply, that is, they disobeyed this majesty, and they had enough reasons to crusade against each other, and even the people of the Chungqing army felt that this crusade was justified by the Ping An army.

For the crusade of the Ping An Army, Qi Yanming has long been prepared, and his Chungcheong Army has long been assembled on the front line of Pyeongtaek and Cheonan, ready to fight to the death with the Ping An Army, after all, for Qi Yanming. He went through a lot of hardships to finally escape from the Ming Dynasty to North Korea, and he also accumulated such a great strength, if he surrendered to the Ping'an Army without even a fight, it was not at all what a bloody man should do. What's more, he also knows very clearly that the Ping An Army is supported by the Ming Dynasty, and as a fugitive wanted by the Ming Dynasty, if he surrenders to the Ping An Army, I am afraid that the most Lu will be escorted back to the Ming Dynasty by the officials of the Ming Dynasty to behead him.

It is precisely because of this that Qi Yanming is really determined to fight to the death with the Ping An Army, after all, he has no way out. And it is impossible for him to give up such a force that the Chungcheong Army has worked hard to escape, so at this moment. He could only let it go.

In fact, from this point of view, it can be seen that Qi Yanming's gap in knowledge, if Zhang Rui is still there, I am afraid that he will definitely not choose to fight hard with the Ping An Army, the biggest possibility is to send someone to negotiate with the Ping An Army, and then use the Chung Qing Army as a bargaining chip, in exchange for the most favorable conditions for himself, no matter how bad he is, he will temporarily avoid the edge, and even give up Chungcheong Road and retreat to Gyeongsang Dao, and then unite with those warriors, such a chance of victory may be greater.

It's a pity that Qi Yanming is not Zhang Rui, his insight and resourcefulness are not up to that level, so when facing the Ping An Army, the most unwise choice to fight alone is very unwise, the result is naturally needless to say, the Chung Qing Army in the era of cold weapons was scattered by hundreds of artillery, and then the well-equipped Ping An Army rushed up, and the Chung Qing died and fled, and was annihilated by the Ping An Army in the first battle.

Zhou Zhong was not surprised by the demise of the Chungqing Army, after all, after the rectification of the Ping An Army by Liu Tao and others, it was replaced with the equipment of the Ming Army provided by himself, and it can be said that the combat effectiveness has ranked first in North Korea, plus the firearms troops provided by himself, it can be said that even if the three major rebels are combined, the last is not the opponent of the Ping An Army at all.

But what Zhou Chong didn't expect was that although the Zhongqing Army was defeated, Qi Yanming, the leader of the rebels, disappeared again, and Liu Tao led people to turn over the entire Zhongqing Road, but still couldn't find his traces, which made Liu Tao, who wanted to catch this Ming thief and ask the court for credit, was angry, and he could only honestly report the incident to Zhou Chong of Weihaiwei.

Zhou Zhong was also very surprised when he learned the news that Qi Yanming had escaped again, and this was the third time that Qi Yanming had escaped under the encirclement and suppression of the Ming army, the first time was in Bazhou, the second time was in Jinan, and the third time in North Korea, in addition, he also learned from Zhang Rui that after Qi Yanming escaped from Jinan, he had been hiding in his Shuangyu Port, and even helped his Nanyang Chamber of Commerce to work, but unfortunately he didn't know anything at that time.

Thinking that Qi Yanming, who should have died early, escaped from his own hands again and again, and even accumulated a little power in North Korea, but with his layout of North Korea, he turned into a cloud of smoke in the end, and as a result, he had to run away alone again, it was really not easy to think about it, and even Zhou Chong couldn't help but have a little admiration for an immortal Xiaoqiang like Qi Yanming, and even after the most recklessness, he instructed Liu Tao not to pay too much attention to the matter of arresting Qi Yanming. After all, now Qi Yanming is no longer a threat to the situation in North Korea, and the most important thing is to get rid of the Gyeongsang-do Scholar Alliance as soon as possible.

The Chungcheong army was destroyed, and a barrier in front of the Gyeongsang army also disappeared, and the alliance of scholars who controlled the Gyeongsang army behind them also panicked all of a sudden, although they also felt that the possibility of the Chungcheong army defeating the Pyongan Army was very low, but they didn't think that the powerful Chungcheong Army would be so vulnerable, and even after just one battle, the Chungcheong Army had been defeated, and there was no possibility of turning over, and now that Chungcheong-do has been controlled by the Pyongan Army, their Gyeongsang-jun will also directly face the powerful monster of the Pyongan Army.

Compared with Qi Yanming, who lacks knowledge and wisdom, the Shi Alliance behind the Qingshang Army are all some scholars, although they are definitely not as good as Qi Yanming when they go into battle to kill the enemy, but their brains are much better than Qi Yanming, after seeing the Chungcheong Army being destroyed, they immediately reached an internal agreement, that is, to surrender to Ping'an, after all, they don't want to send their family children to the battlefield for the Heian Army to slaughter.

However, although the Shi Alliance decided to surrender, there were many ways to surrender, such as the Gangwon Army and other small groups of rebels, they did not have much bargaining chips in their hands, nor did they have much background, so they almost completely handed over the rights in their hands, of course, the Heian Army did not treat them badly, at least it could ensure their wealth for a lifetime.

In contrast, the Scholar Alliance has a rich heritage, especially since these scholars have always controlled the official class in North Korea, even if Li Long desperately attacked them before, which greatly damaged the vitality of their scholars, and many scholars had to give up their official positions and live in seclusion. However, when the rebels from all walks of life rose up, those warriors once again tore off their disguises and actively participated in the rebels from all walks of life, after all, if the rebels want to govern the people, they must definitely have the support of these warriors, even in the Ping An Army, there are not a few officials from these warriors.

It is precisely because of this that the Scholar Alliance has the confidence to negotiate conditions with the Ping An Army, at least they have learned from some of the scholars within the Ping An Army that the current expansion of the Ping An Army is too fast, which makes the local officials in charge of the local shortage of officials, although the Ming Dynasty behind the support can transfer some officials, but these officials are mainly in charge of the overall situation of the scheduling, as for specific affairs, they also need to be familiar with the situation in North Korea The local scholars need to do it.

I have to say that those local Korean warriors are indeed very brainy, the Heian Army in just half a year, has annexed Gyeonggi Province, Gangwon Province and Chungcheong Province in a row, and now it is going to annex Gyeongsang Province and Jeolla Province of the Gyeongsang Army, although the land area of North Korea is not very large, but that is only relative to the Ming Dynasty, if it is placed in other places in the world world, North Korea can be regarded as a big country, so it naturally needs a lot of officials to manage.

Although Zhengde can send some officials to North Korea, but this matter cannot be made public after all, otherwise it will be opposed by the ministers, so he can only do it quietly through Jinyiwei, and as a result, there are fewer and fewer officials collected, and at the end of the day, it is impossible to meet the needs of North Korea.

There was a lack of officials in the Heian Army, but the group of people in the Shizu Alliance was the group with the most reserve officials, and in addition to studying, they also learned the way of being officials, and they were more familiar with the local affairs of Korea than anyone else, so they were the most suitable group of people to help Zhou Zhong manage Korea. It was precisely because of this guard of honor that the Scholar Alliance quickly sent people to contact the Heian Army and negotiate the terms of surrender.

In the first condition for the surrender of the Shi Alliance, they proposed to Liu Tao and Li Anliang that the Ping An Army must guarantee the rights of the Shi Alliance, and must not persecute the Shi like Li Long, and also ensure that after the surrender of the Gyeongshang Army, the Ping An Army will recruit people from within the Shi Alliance to serve as officials, which is a prerequisite for them to agree to surrender, otherwise they would rather die in battle than surrender.

In addition to the above conditions, the Shi Alliance also proposed other conditions, but these are normal, such as protecting the property and personal safety of each Shi clan, etc., these Liu Tao can make the decision to agree, but the first condition, the Shi Alliance actually proposed to the Ping An Army in a threatening tone, which made Liu Tao a little unbearable, and he did not dare to call the shots, so he reported the matter to Zhou Chong, but the news from Zhou Chong surprised Liu Tao, because Zhou Chong actually came to North Korea to negotiate with those Shi clans.
