Half a month later, a ship departing from Pyongan Road in northern Korea came to Weihaiwei, and then a middle-aged man in a blue robe got off the ship and entered the governor's palace of Zhou Zhong under the leadership of a team of brocade guards, and Zhou Zhong met the middle-aged man in the study.

"You are Li Anliang?" Zhou Zhong looked up and down at Li Anliang, the big leader of one of the four major rebels in North Korea, in front of him, and saw that the other party was tall and medium-looking, with a few wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and forehead, and looked about thirty years old, but Zhou Chong knew that this Li Anliang was just thirty years old, but the hard life of the past ten years, coupled with the torture of hatred, made him look older than he actually was.

"Grass man Li Anliang, meet the Governor!" Li Anliang was also a scholar before, and he was also very thoughtful about etiquette, and he also knew very clearly that he, the leader of the Ping An Army, was probably just a little ant with some strength in the eyes of the young governor in front of him, and the other party could crush him to death as long as he moved his little finger.

Seeing that Li Anliang made a set of great gifts for himself to meet the officials, Zhou Zhong did not stop him, but stood there and waited for this set of etiquette to be finished, and then he spoke: "Li Anliang, do you know the reason why I specially summoned you from North Korea this time and met you in person?" ”

"This ......" Li Anliang heard Zhou Chong's straightforward question, and he couldn't react for a while, and although he guessed the reason why Zhou Chong summoned him, he knew a truth, that is, the superior didn't like the subordinate to figure out what he thought in his heart, so he didn't know if he wanted to answer this question honestly for a while.

Seeing Li Anliang's hesitant look, Zhou Zhong smiled and said, "Li Anliang." You don't have to have any taboos with me. Say whatever comes to mind. In addition, the Governor can tell you the truth, I am very interested in your experience, and I also have no good opinion of the barbarians in the white waters of Liaodong Black Mountain, so if you can satisfy me, then I don't mind that a butcher appears under my command, as long as he is able, I can support him to clean up the whole of Liaodong. ”

Zhou Zhong said the last few sentences. Although there was still a smiling expression on his face, behind his smile, there was an extremely cold expression, and even Li Anliang suddenly had a mistake, that is, the Governor in front of him might hate those Jurchens more than himself.

"Your Excellency Governor Qiqi, although the villain is ignorant, but judging from the contact with the Governor General during this time, the Governor seems to dislike North Korea very much, so he sells food and weapons to the rebels from all walks of life in North Korea, but he controls it to a certain extent. As a result, the rebels of all walks of life in Korea just had the strength to defeat the official army, but they could not win completely. This has led to the current situation of the two heroes, but now the Governor General should no longer be satisfied with this method of indirectly controlling the situation in Korea behind the scenes, but wants to directly control the power of a certain side of the DPRK, so as to directly intervene in the situation in Korea. ”

Li An knew that Zhou Zhong was considering his own talents, so he told all the things he guessed in his heart without the slightest concealment, because he knew that the greater the talent he showed, the more attention he would receive in the future, and at the same time, he was more likely to avenge his family.

"Ha Lu Ha ~ , yes, yes, really worthy of being able to lead a large army, I can guess most of my intentions from my previous actions towards North Korea, and it really deserves to be my favorite talent!" Zhou Da said with a smile.

"Thank you, Lord Governor, for your compliment!" Li Anliang was also very interested, and immediately bowed down to Zhou Zhong's praise.

"You don't have to thank me, now I can tell you the truth, I really don't have a good impression of North Korea, and the deal with the rebels from all walks of life is really not good, and now I am ready to directly intervene in the civil strife in Korea, and your Ping An Army is my chosen target, now I give you two choices, the first is to give up the power of the Ping An Army, enter the Governor's Mansion as my subordinate, I will help you fulfill your wishes, the second is that you continue to be your leader of the Ping An Army, and then rely on your own efforts to develop your strength, Then take revenge on the Jurchens with your own strength, you can choose these two paths! Zhou Zhong said in a calm tone, although he knew that Li Anliang would definitely choose the first path, but now he needs the other party to say it in person.

Sure enough, after seeing Li Anliang hear Zhou Chong's words, he immediately knelt down without hesitation and said: "Lord Governor, the grass people choose to give up the power of the Ping An Army, after all, the hatred of the destruction of the door is not shared, the grass people have spent every day in hatred for the past ten years, and they dream of returning to the Ming Dynasty to avenge the whole family, but they hate their own weak strength, although they now have the strength of the Ping An Army in their hands, but the Ping An Army is only a rebel army in North Korea, and the strength is very weak, even if I do my best to develop the strength of the Ping An Army, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to become a big weapon in the future, but now that the Governor appreciates it, it is really the glory of the grass people, and it is also the only hope for the grass people to take revenge! ”

This is the first time that Li Anliang has said such words of revenge in front of others, and even his wife Park Lingzhu didn't know that he still had such a blood feud hidden in his heart, so when he said these words, the hatred that had been buried in his heart for ten years suddenly broke out, making his whole body tremble slightly, and his lips were bitten and bloody.

Looking at Li Anliang, whose eyes were red and eager to kill all the Jurchens at once, Zhou Zhong sighed, personally stepped forward to help him up and said: "Of course, you can't forget the revenge of destroying the door, but you don't forget either, you are not alone now, and you still have wives and children to take care of at home, so I can support you in revenge, and even if you have the ability, even if you slaughter all the Jurchens in Liaodong, I will help you bear it, but before that, you must restrain your hatred and complete the task I gave you, Otherwise, if you disappoint me, you know what the consequences will be! ”

Zhou Chong's previous words were warm and consolation, but later he used a warning tone, after all, a person like Li Anliang was born recklessly and has been a thief for a while, so if you want to subdue such a person, it is not enough to just blindly show grace, and if necessary, you must show your authority, and paying equal attention to grace and power is the real way to employ people.

"Please rest assured, the villain has been enduring for a whole ten years, and now he has seen the hope of revenge, so he naturally doesn't mind enduring it for a few more years, but I don't know what Lord Lu Dao commands, as long as his subordinates can do it, he will definitely not disappoint the adult!" Although Li Anliang was deferential when he spoke, he was also reminding Zhou Zhong in his words that he could give everything for revenge, but he hoped that he would not let him endure it for too long.

Zhou Zhong heard Li Anliang's words, but Ha Lu Ha Da Lu smiled and said: "Don't worry, you won't endure it for too long, this time I will send someone back to North Korea with you, and then you will hand over all the affairs in the Heian Army to the people I sent, and then help them defeat several other rebels, unify Korea as quickly as possible, and then as long as North Korea is pacified, I can ask His Majesty to clean up Liaodong of the Ming Dynasty, after all, those Jurchens are becoming more and more disobedient, and it's time to clean it up!" ”

Whether it is in later generations or now, Zhou Chong does not have any good impression of the Jurchen barbarian nation, although the current Jurchen people are not a threat to the Ming Dynasty, but the establishment of the barbarian dynasty in later generations still makes Zhou Chong full of vigilance against this savage nation, and now there is Li Anliang's good knife, of course he will make good use of it, I believe that driven by the desire for revenge, Li Anliang will definitely make the entire Jurchen nation pay a huge price.

However, when Li Anliang heard Zhou's words about the reunification of Korea, he was startled and said: "Your Excellency the Governor, Korea has always been a subject country of the Ming Dynasty, if you come forward to seize the throne of Korea, will the court agree?" ”

When Li Anliang said the above words, his eyes were also full of suspicion when he looked at Zhou Chong, after all, in his opinion, Zhou Chong, as a courtier of the Ming Dynasty, should not provoke civil strife in North Korea, but now he wants to completely unify North Korea, which is obviously not what a courtier should do, and even Li Anliang suddenly felt that the young governor in front of him might want to rebel, and North Korea was the first step for him to accumulate strength.

Seeing Li Anliang's suspicious gaze, Zhou Chong smiled in a big way, and only after a long time did he speak: "Who told you that I want to take away the throne of North Korea?" This time, although you want to hand over the power of the Heian Army after you go back, you are still the nominal leader, and then under your leadership, you will destroy the other forces of North Korea in one fell swoop, and then report to the Ming Dynasty, asking the whole country to join the Ming Dynasty, as for the emperor's majesty there, I have already obtained his permission, as long as you send the letter of state to Beijing, the Ming Dynasty will agree to annex Korea into the Ming Dynasty, although North Korea is a little poorer, and the winter is colder, but after a war, there will definitely be a master's land vacated, I believe that by then, the Han people in Liaodong of the Ming Dynasty will definitely be very willing to migrate here! ”

"This ...... This ......" Li Anliang really didn't expect that Zhou Zhong spent so much effort to annex North Korea, but he only coveted the land of North Korea, and even thought about immigration, which seemed to him to be a bit incredible.

Li Anliang naturally didn't know what to say, Zhou Chong's annexation of North Korea was not just for the land, although the Ming Dynasty had continuous natural disasters during this time, but there was a lot of land in the Nanyang area, and there was no need to spend effort on the barren land of North Korea.

Of course, Zhou Chong also has his own reasons for annexing North Korea, the first is naturally his dislike of this country, the disgusting faces of the two small countries in later generations make Zhou Chong still remember it vividly, and now that he has the opportunity, he simply annexed them, so as not to have the situation in the future. The second is that Zhou Zhong needs to control the Wa Kingdom, he needs the silver mines there, and there is just a sea current on the east side of the Wa State that can reach the Americas, which is related to the development of the Americas in the future, and if you want to control the Wa Kingdom, you must use North Korea as a springboard, so North Korea was unfortunately destroyed by Zhou Chong.
