Chapter 676: Puppet Dynasty
The military advisor who had the idea of saving his life did not expect that his kind reminder would become the fuse for himself to become a scapegoat. It is certain that under the unanimous determination of these Tartars, after returning to Houjin, as a scapegoat, he will only have one ending for Houjin to destroy his family.
Therefore, after Ao Bai's words were finished, the military advisor's face was covered with a thick despair.
waited until he was dragged away, but he didn't react......
The scapegoat was found, and the words of the military advisor were all listened to by Ao Bai.
Ao Bai, who was surrounded by a group of subordinates, no longer had the slightest concern, and directly issued the order to retreat......
The remaining more than 1,000 Tartars around Ao Bai gave up their war horses one after another and went into the dense forest next to the official road. The hundreds of sword and shield men who were directly abandoned by Ao Bai on the battlefield have been beaten to the bottom......
As for the Tartars who fled into the dense forest, Chen Ming did not order a pursuit.
After all, the Tartars are nomadic people who have lived in the mountains since childhood. The officers and men of the Korean New Army under his command are also familiar with these dense forests. However, there is still not much comparison with the Tartars.
Therefore, Chen Ming, who is self-aware, directly gave the order to end the battle and clean up the battlefield......
Of course, as the direct commanders of this battle, Chen Ming and General Kim Lao also rushed to Pyongyang as soon as possible to report this unprecedented victory to the Korean king Ren Zu...... ``
In the Pyongyang Palace, after listening to Chen Ming's account of the entire battle process and specific results, the palace hall of Nuoda seemed to suddenly freeze and became silent.
In the main hall, except for Chen Ming and General Jin. Including Ren Zu. All the kings and ministers on their faces. They all showed a look of disbelief full of suspicion. Then, he looked at Chen Ming and waited for Chen Ming to explain.
General Kim, who was standing beside Chen Ming, knew very well what this result meant for North Korea.
It can be said that this is a huge victory that the DPRK has not achieved in hundreds of years.
With this result in hand, King Imjo can not only become the Sunmyung monarch in the history of Joseon. Forever remembered by the Korean people. It was also a great encouragement for the current Joseon dynasty to further stabilize the dominance of the Lee dynasty in Korea.
With the occupation of South Korea by the Japanese and the occupation of North Korea by the Haw Par Army, the Kim Tatars sent troops to North Korea, and they burned and looted in North Korea.
In North Korea, many people are already questioning whether Ren Zu is suitable to continue to be the king of North Korea.
On the surface, Pyongyang is now very stable, and Ren Zu still sits on the throne of the king.
As a matter of fact. Behind this steady dìng, there are a large number of unknown crises and conspiracies.
Many ministers who are dissatisfied with Ren Zu. Began to secretly collude to overthrow Renjo's rule over the Korean state and re-elect a new Korean king.
However, as the results of this battle spread, all kinds of rumors that were unfavorable to Ren Zu would definitely disappear completely.
At the same time, Ren Zu's prestige in the Korean state will also be raised to a new height.
In this case, no matter what the reason, it is impossible to affect the throne of Ren Zu and the dominance of the Yi dynasty in Korea.
After seeing everyone's reactions, General Jin followed and gave everyone an affirmative answer.
If you state your words, you can be suspicious...... However, no one doubted the words of General Jin......
Therefore, as soon as General Jin finished speaking, the expressions on everyone's faces began to change.
The expression full of suspicion was directly replaced by shock.
What's more, some ministers' mouths that were open because of shock could directly stuff an egg into it......
King Renzu, no doubt, was the first to react from the shock.
After glancing at the minister in front of him who had not yet reacted from the shock, he said directly: "God bless me with North Korea...... I'm dead now, and I have the face to see my ancestors and ancestors......"
"General Chen, you have contributed a lot to the elimination of the Golden Tartars before and after this time, and I must reward you and the hundreds of Tiger and Leopard Army warriors under you...... If it weren't for you, Pyongyang, under our feet, might have fallen into the hands of the Tartars......"
At this time, Ren Zu seemed to think of something, and continued to say with excitement on his face: "General Chen, although you are not a North Korean, and you are also an officer of the Haw Par Army, in order to show North Korea's gratitude to General Chen, I have decided to make General Chen the general of the DPRK...... As long as General Chen is in Korea for one day, the title of General of North Korea will be General Chen's ......."
After Ren Zu's decision was spoken, there was no doubt that several ministers who were wary of the Haw Par Army stood up to oppose it.
However, at the insistence of Ren Zu, the support of most ministers, and the direct consent of General Kim, Chen Ming directly became the titular general of North Korea as the commander of the Tiger and Leopard Regiment.
Of course, when Chen Ming commanded 10,000 new Korean troops and wiped out the money, the results of the battle of the Golden Tartars were transmitted to the headquarters of the Haw Par Army. Chen Ming's rank of colonel was directly promoted to major general......
Of course, this was only Ren Zu's first reward to Chen Ming.
At the repeated demands of General Kim, Chen Ming finally became the true commander of the new Korean army. Coupled with Chen Ming's prestige in the new Korean army, this army composed of North Koreans and fed by North Korea completely fell into the hands of the Haw Par Army.
Militarily, the Haw Par Army completed its control of North Korea.
Economically, the Haw Par Army also took advantage of this opportunity to completely control North Korea's tax revenue......
At the end of the battle, the powerful power of the muskets on the battlefield made Ren Zu directly buy 10,000 muskets from the Haw Par Army at one time, despite the opposition of the ministers.
Because, after eliminating the elite of the Jinzheng Yellow Banner Iron Cavalry, the temptation was too great for Ren Zu.
Ren Zu, who had been carried away by the victory, couldn't listen to the minister's opposition at all, and he didn't think about what price he would pay for doing so...... Directly against the opposition of the minister, a decision was forcibly made.
In the absence of enough silver, Ren Zu directly took out the annual tax revenue of the Korean state as collateral and borrowed silver from the Haw Par Army to buy muskets and ammunition, and developed a new army unit that obeyed the orders of the Haw Par Army......
In addition, all kinds of ammunition needed by the North Korean New Army every year need to be purchased from the Haw Par Army in silver. With the current tax revenue of North Korea, except for the silver needed to ensure the normal operation of the Lee dynasty in Korea, all other taxes must be handed over to the Haw Par Army......
Even then, it would take almost a decade for North Korea to pay off those arrears......
Suffice it to say, on the surface, the Yi dynasty still ruled Korea.
However, in the eyes of the Haw Par Army, the Li Dynasty worked for the Haw Par Army.
It not only helps the Hawpar Army to rule North Korea and harvest the wealth of North Korea. He also helped the Haw Par Army raise its army and completely became a puppet of the Haw Par Army in North Korea...... (To be continued......) R1292
