Chapter 624 The head of the Yalu River is built with drums
"What General Li said is that Gu also thinks that it is right to connect with Yan Wang Fang first, so let's do it, Jin Shenzheng you first raise some grain and send it to Pyongyang, and then go to Jierharang, our people are few and thin, and we will not be able to get together so much grain and grass for a while and a half, and I also ask the auxiliary king to give grace for more than a month, and then our country will make up for the grain and straw owed, General Gu, you quickly return to Incheon Road and connect with the defenders of Liaonan in the Ming Dynasty, just say that our country is really persecuted by the Eastern Captives, and I have to be false, and please send troops to the country as soon as possible, and relieve me and me from hanging upside down."
Li Liang thought about it and thought about it, but he still thought that Li Yuanyi's strategy was relatively safe, because he was really scared by the treacherous Ming Guoshi Doctor Group.
Since the rise of the Later Jin, North Korea has always firmly stood on the side of the suzerainty of the Ming Dynasty, not only for the support of the Ming State Dongjiang Town money and grain, but also with the strength of the country to fight to the death against the East Emperor, but except for Sun Chengzong, Mao Wenlong and Wei Zhongxian and a few other Ming officials who are looking at North Korea, other Ming officials have not taken North Korea seriously at all.
"The ministers obey."
Jin Dazhong and Gu Renyuan hurriedly received the order, they also knew that Li Liang was also helpless, a small country must have a way of survival for a small country, and if there is no clear result, rashly expressing a position will only put the country in a dangerous situation.
Su Sa, the minister of the Qing Dynasty in Korea, was very satisfied, because after he handed over the credentials, the Korean monarchs and ministers acted quickly, and only three days later, Kim Dae-jung, the minister of the Korean parliament, personally escorted the first batch of 30,000 stone grain to aid the Qing Dynasty in Seoul, and requisitioned 8,000 Korean young men to escort them, and at the same time Kim Dae-jung also promised that the follow-up grain and grass would be raised within a month.
At the same time, after returning to Incheon, Gu Renyuan also urgently went to southern Liaoning, wanting to seek the protection of the Ming Kingdom.
On the 11th day of July in the first year of Yongli, after the Korean envoy arrived in southern Liaoning, he was sent directly to Beijing by Lu Liang, the governor of southern Liaoning.
The North Koreans took the initiative to surrender, and Li Xingzhi was not surprised, because Ding Chou's descent into the city "has always been regarded as a shameful event in the history of North Korea."
Although the Manchu Qing Dynasty succeeded in forcing Korea to surrender by virtue of its huge military strength, the Korean monarchs and ministers did not agree with it from the bottom of their hearts, but regarded the "Dingchou Downtown" as a shameful event in Korean history.
You must know that the DPRK has always regarded itself as a "little China", and now it has become a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty, which has made the Korean military and people extremely distressed, coupled with the economic plunder, political oppression and cultural oppression of Manchuria, so that the DPRK has always had an extremely strong anti-Qing wave, and this trend of thought has become the mainstream of society for a long time.
Even in history, after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, Manchuria was still regarded as "dog and sheep Yidi" in Korea, and the Korean monarchs and ministers even privately called the Qing emperor "Hu Huang" and the Qing envoys "captive envoys".
Especially in funerals and sacrifices, North Korea has always opposed the use of the Qing Dynasty era name, and has always used the Ming Dynasty era name, once someone uses the Qing Dynasty era name, they will be scolded as a "family thief".
In addition to the silent confrontation in the shadows, the North Korean side has carried out an open resistance, when the reign of Li Hao, the filial piety of North Korea, directly to restore the Ming Dynasty as his own responsibility, and not just talk, had intended to unite the Southern Ming, the Japanese State together to "oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming", but also carried out a series of preparations, but unfortunately because the Southern Ming was defeated by the Qing army in a row, it was not possible to make the trip.
And to the 43rd year of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty Kangxi, North Korea is playing a big vote, March 19 this day in North Korea actually held a grand sacrifice activities, and the object of the sacrifice is the martyrdom of the Ming Emperor Chongzhen 60 years ago, the beginning of the sacrificial text is, "Chongzhen 77 years old Jiashen Gengzi Shuo 19 Wu Wu, the king of North Korea Li Yan, dare to announce to the Ming Dynasty Yi Zonglie Emperor ......" and after the sacrificial activities, North Korea Suzong actually ordered people to build a "big newspaper altar" in Seoul Mansion, and said that they would sacrifice every year.
After that, when the reign of Suzong's son Yingzu, he directly invited the gods of Emperor Chongzhen and Emperor Hongwu into the "Great Newspaper Altar", so that "the sun and moon of the Dynasty are re-illuminated in the state of Chaozong", and this Great Newspaper Forum has since become a place for Korean monarchs and ministers to express their gratitude and nostalgia for the Ming Dynasty Emperor, and it was not demolished by the Japanese until 1908 AD.
"Our Korean soldiers and civilians are all looking forward to the king's division, please Your Highness, for the sake of our country's generations as a vassal of the Celestial Empire, send troops as soon as possible to save our army and people from fire and water.
In the palace of King Yan, the general of the Korean coastal defense Gu Renyuan is crying and tears, he is crying with joy, according to the same governor of southern Liaoning, Lu Liangzhi said, the Ming Dynasty has mobilized 150,000 troops from everywhere, and is waiting for the Dan, just waiting for His Royal Highness King Yan to order, he will go out of Liaodong to completely solve the Liaodong Jiannu.
"Your envoy please hurry up, Li Fan's heart to my Ming fist, Lone is known, the former treacherous and troubled the country, resulting in the fall of the Dongjiang River, and the country has no choice but to turn its back on the Ming to join the slaves, now the lonely chaos is right, the heavenly soldiers do not enter Liao, but the soldiers have been used for many years, the court has only raised 200,000 stone grain so far, I am afraid that the war will be delayed, once the food is exhausted, I am afraid that there will be the loss of Songjin!"
It is a fool not to take advantage of it, and North Korea is also a vassal country, in line with the principle of not knocking on the white and not knocking, Li Xingzhi did not care how loyal North Korea was to the Ming Dynasty, but decisively knocked on their bamboo poles, besides, you all have food to send to the Eastern Empire, and it is natural to support the Heavenly Empire.
"Your Highness, rest assured, our lord has already raised money and food in Seoul, and as soon as the king arrives, our soldiers and civilians will wait for His Highness."
Compared with the provision of money and grain to Manchuria, the Korean monarchs and ministers obviously did not resist the provision of materials to the Ming army, and in their opinion, providing money and food to the Ming Dynasty was the proper meaning of the question.
With the Korean Minister of Coastal Defense as a guide, in line with the principle of the speed of the soldiers, Li Xingzhi immediately ordered Zhang Wubu, the new five towns that had been transferred to Dengzhou, to immediately board the ship in Dengzhou, drive directly to Phi Dao, control the Yalu River, and cut off the back road for Zierharang to return to Liaodong.
On the occasion of Zhang Wu's expedition, Li Xingzhi personally wrote a book, the head of the Yalu River built a drum, the general fought a hundred battles to strengthen the country's prestige, Liaohai had its own lonely loyalty, and the bloody battlefield was according to Danxin.
After boarding the ship in the fifth town, Li Xingzhi also played the left capital Yushi Sun Zhiqiao as the governor of Jiliao, the former deputy general of Shanxi Town Xu Dingguo as the general of Shanhaiguan, the former Shandong Town General Liu Zeqing as the general of Jinzhou, the Marquis of Guangchang Liu Liangzuo as the general of Zunhua, and the former Beijing Battalion General Huang Degong as the general soldier of Jizhen, and raised 40,000 soldiers to enter Ningyuan, which was the vanguard of the Pingliao army.
The original Ningyuan guard boarded the ship of Li Dingguo, Marquis of Xining, on Juehua Island and turned back to southern Liaoning, attacking the Liaodong Peninsula, and the rest of the new first town, the fourth town, the new fourth town, the sixth town, the new sixth town, the seventh town, the new eighth town, the ninth town, as well as the first cavalry town, the second cavalry town, the first town of the cannon and the second town of the gun, all stationed in the first line of Shanhaiguan, and the northern expedition to Liaodong was carried out.
As for the defense of the Beijing Division, because Zhang Shaoqian insisted on going to war, Li Xingzhi had to order Wang Zhong to immediately lead the return of the Second Town and the New Second Town to stabilize the defense of Gyeonggi.
