Chapter 386: Joseon Palace Change
From the summer of the first year of Tianshun to the spring of the second year of Tianshun, it was the happiest time for many savage tribes in Liaodong, they wantonly burned and killed on the land of the Korean Peninsula, and the Kingdom of Korea found that Shi Heng, who was stationed in the area of Shuozhou, did not have the intention of going south, but single-mindedly ran the northern part of the Korean Peninsula.
So the Korean kingdom was determined to fight back against those damned barbarian tribes, and those Liaodong tribes who had been cleaned up by the Korean kingdom in the past and held a grudge were naturally not to be outdone after receiving the support and some promises from the great and covert, and the two sides turned the Korean territory along the Qingshui River to Pyongyang upside down.
In this year, the Korean Kingdom sent envoys to the Ming Dynasty many times, and the original conditions were to retreat and retreat, and retreat and retreat, but Zhu Qizhen was not moved, or the conditions given by the Korean Kingdom were really not enough for Zhu Qizhen to stop.
Although there are still many anti-war voices in the government and the opposition, at the beginning, Zhu Qizhen used thunderbolt means to write off the seven important ministers on the charge of communicating with foreign countries to the end, which is still very fresh in people's memories, plus what the Korean Kingdom did was originally very inauthentic, at least the Daming border towns all stood up, as the iron core of North Korea after Zhu Qizhen came out, standing behind and waving the flag and shouting.
And as the Xungui group, which has been suppressed for a long time by those civil officials who played with pens in the past, they are naturally not willing to be lonely and stand on the side of Zhu Qizhen. Moreover, there is no unanimous view among the civilian officials on this matter, so these voices of opposition cannot make too many waves.
As for the public opinion of the people, Zhu Qizhen, a person from the future, knows very well how to guide, or distort public opinion, and at the beginning of the summer of the first year of Tianshun, Zhu Qizhen took out the newspaper by the way.
And now, each province will have its own newspapers, these are all newspapers secretly controlled by the Xuanfu Trading Company under Zhu Qizhen, and naturally they have a royal literati in their hands, standing in Zhu Qizhen, or from the perspective of Daming, to say good things for Zhu Qizhen.
All in all, the Ming Dynasty has endured North Korea for nearly a hundred years, and now, no matter how bad it is to pick them up, people all over the world may regard our Ming Dynasty as a coward who doesn't even dare to say a word after letting the dog bite a piece of meat.
Another important reason is that my Ming Dynasty just cleaned up Korea, and now it is no longer moving, and now, those many tribes in Liaodong who have been oppressed and enslaved by the Korean Kingdom for more than 100 years have finally stood up and resisted.
At least, the information received by the people in the country is that now the Korean Kingdom has fought with those barbarian tribes in xx place, and where will it fight again tomorrow, and I, Daming, still maintain objective neutrality.
Is it really neutral? Its realization is now very clear and clear that these are simply the masks made by the unscrupulous emperor Zhu Qizhen, just with those eastern Liaodong tribes, they want to fight head-on with the Korean Kingdom, and it is really not a dish to eat.
But now tens of thousands of elites of the Ming Dynasty are eyeing the area of Nashuozhou, and Jeju Island and Tsushima Island are all taken by the Ming Dynasty, and the Korean Kingdom is in danger on all sides, and I am worried that the Ming Dynasty will suddenly "insert" a knife.
It is precisely because of the fear of the Ming Dynasty that the strength of the Korean Kingdom has been reserved, so those Liaodong tribes can be on a par with the Korean Kingdom.
And although those Liaodong tribes said that they were fighting in full swing, in fact, the benefits they reaped were more just the numbers on gold and silver. And many business groups of the Ming Dynasty stayed in the Shuozhou area.
It can be said that in just one year, Shuozhou has changed from an inconspicuous Korean city to the largest trade bazaar opened by the Ming Dynasty in the Korean Kingdom. …,
If you want to make money here, okay, no matter who is standing behind your ass, you have to pay taxes. Then here, you can sell all kinds of materials to those Liaodong tribes, and buy those Liaodong and Korean products and a lot of money from their hands. Then he returned to the interior of Daming and sold it again.
Even weapons will be traded with those Liaodong tribes, but only the Xuanfu merchant group has this qualification to trade weapons. used weapons to exchange a large number of materials and even people looted by the Liaodong tribes from the hands of those Liaodong tribes.
Most of these people, after being identified, will be released and returned to their hometowns, of course, these hometowns have fallen under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, and those captured Korean soldiers will rush to the border towns of eastern Liaodong together with their previously captured comrades, and build roads and docks on a large scale.
And this is how the tug-of-war that lasted for nearly a year has caused great suffering from top to bottom of the Korean Kingdom, and the area north of Pyongyang on the Korean Peninsula is almost everywhere, and more than a million people have been displaced.
In the same way, many tribes in Liaodong have also gone through more than a year of attrition, and their strength has been greatly damaged, and at this time, Shi Heng sent troops from Shuozhou with lightning speed, and in just seven days, he crossed the Daning River and the Qingshui River, and captured the important Korean town of Xinanzhou located in the south of the Qingshui River.
As soon as Sin'an fell into the hands of the Ming Dynasty, Pyongyang, the capital of the Korean Kingdom, and the elite of the Ming army led by Shi Heng, the straight-line distance was only two days' journey, and in between, there were only two city walls separating each other.
Of course, Shi Heng naturally has a reason, at the beginning, our Ming Dynasty gave you a one-month deadline for the Korean Kingdom, but now, a full year has passed, and you haven't made up your mind to come up with a charter.
If I don't make any moves, wouldn't it make you wait for Xiaobang to look down, maybe all the vassals in the world will still think that my Daming is untrustworthy.
At this time, North Korea and North Korea are really "chaotic", the young lord Li Hongwei is still a little child, and he has few decisions, but those ministers are no longer like in the past, or in other words, the situation in North Korea has reached a critical existential juncture, and many ministers have begun to make their own small calculations.
And just when the court was arguing and quarreling and couldn't come up with an idea, the mansion of the Lord of Shouyang ushered in a few rare guests......
Since the death of Li Jue, the king of Wenzong, he was confined to the mansion for more than half a year, and Li Yao, who was only lifted from the ban, sat in the main hall, and all the irrelevant people in the hall had been expelled from the room, and even the people who served tea and water were replaced by Li Yao's beloved concubines.
And in this main hall, there were seven officials sitting including Li Quanzhuan, Han Minghun , Zheng Lintoe, and Jin Caorui, and everyone's expressions were very serious and even gloomy at this moment.
And Li Yao squinted her eyes, stroking the short beard under her chin, and the cold light that flashed in her eyes from time to time revealed a sense of yin and ruthlessness.
As the chief henchman of Li Yao, Chao Minghun swept some of the people in the venue, and shouted in a deep voice: "Everyone, today my North Korea has reached a critical moment of survival, and we must not hesitate any longer. And the Maharaja, you have the ability and prestige to turn the tide, and I hope that the Maharaja will take on this important task for the sake of the millions of Li people in my Korea. ”
"Yes, only the prince can afford it, and the current king, in the hands of Huang Furen, Jin Zongrui and others, is like a marionette. If you don't make a move, the power of North Korea will definitely fall ........."...,
The seven people in the venue bowed down to the prince of Shouyang, Li Yao, and expressed their pain, as if Li Yao did not go out of the mountain now, the century-old country of North Korea would collapse.
"Zhu Qing's kindness, Lone Heart has received it, but now Lone has no soldiers and no board, how can he succeed, you don't have to forget, the military power is in the hands of Jin Zongrui, Lone has a slight change, how can the army in the city watch?" Li Jian pretended to sigh and said: "Seeing that the rivers and mountains of my North Korea are full of smoke, the people are displaced and their families are ruined. As the son of King Sejong, it was really painful for me to be watched by the sidelines. ”
"Maharaja, the minister has a plan, but he can get rid of Jin Zongrui......" As Han Minghun who was the most valued by the first Yang monarch and relied on him as the ovary, finally came to Li Yao's ear, and after whispering carefully, Li Yao, who was already moved, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Slightly stunned, he turned his head to look at Han Minghu.
"Maharaja, this is the right time, if you don't take it, in the future, it will be difficult for the maharaja to have a chance." Han Minghun pleaded earnestly.
"In this case, for the survival of my Korean Kingdom, then Gu will take a risk." Li Yao stood up, clenched his fists, and swept his gaze over these henchmen. "Lone is determined to go see that Jin Zongrui tonight."
"Maharaja!" Hearing this, several people in the room raised their heads, and their eyes were full of eagerness, revealing greed and desire for power and glory. And at this moment, in the Shouyang Maharaja's mansion, hundreds of dead soldiers supported by the Shouyang Maharaja were already ready to go.
That night, Li Yao, a large group of Shouyang, pretended to visit Jin Zongrui, gossiping, and stayed until nightfall before getting up to leave. Jin Zongrui personally saw off the guests, and when he arrived at the door, the cold hammer hit him, and Jin Zongrui fell down in response, and his brain burst on the spot.
After hammering to death the left prime minister Jin Zongrui, the private soldiers of the Shouyang Maharaja rushed straight to the palace and coerced Duanzong in one fell swoop before everyone had time to react.
After taking control of Ruizong, Li Yao issued several decrees in the name of Duanzong, killed several hardcore ministers and generals of Duanzong, and completely controlled the military power of Pyongyang, the royal capital, in his own hands.
At this point, the Korean civil and military side, who had originally put their minds on the war, came back to their senses, but now the general trend has been decided, and in just a few days, Li Hongwei was forced to Zen in Li Yao and was respected as the king of Gongyi Wenwen.
And Li Yao, who couldn't wait to ascend the throne, wrote to the Ming Dynasty on the day he ascended the throne to ask for peace, but what he didn't expect was that his behavior made the Ming Dynasty and the opposition who had been paying attention to the situation in North Korea for the past two years in an uproar.
ps: The update arrived, everyone, the first two days of thinking was not clear, I didn't dare to change, the main thing is to write something, not to irrigate.
