Chapter Seventy-Six: Fate is Impermanent

Li Chenggui was silent.

He hesitated.

Lan Yu said it nicely, he was sure that he would dare to run away. Sapphire has been waiting for a long time. But if it is really as Lan Yu said, it is equivalent to giving up everything he has worked hard to run and starting over in Daming. In this way, the efforts of the first half of his life were in vain.

Li Chenggui is not young.

The best years of life are left in this land and start anew. Easy to say. When it comes to making up your mind, it's not so easy.

At this time, a person suddenly came to Li Chenggui's side and whispered a few words beside Li Chenggui.

Li Chenggui was stunned. Then he smiled bitterly: "No need to choose, we only have one choice." ”

Zheng Daochuan asked, "What happened?" ”

Li Chenggui said: "The Ming army has been convoying, coming across the sea to conquer Jianghua Island. And along the Imjin River, the road from Kaikyo to the south was cut off, and I had to flee to the mountains unless I wanted to. Otherwise there is nowhere to go. ”

"What?" Zheng Daochuan was excited, and his eyes bleed, and the gauze was dyed red. said: "How many ships are in the fleet and how many can be transported?" ”

Li Chenggui said: "There are more than 100 big ships, covering the sky and the sun, as for how many people have been transported. I heard that it was at least more than 10,000. ”

Zheng Daochuan smiled bitterly and said, "It's over, Goryeo is over." ”

I have to admit that Lee Sung-gye and Chung Do-chuan are the top smart people in Goryeo in this era.

They all saw that this action must have been deliberately done by Lan Yu. It is to intercept Li Chenggui's escape to the south. They don't care about that. What they care about is Daming's shipping capacity. Although they had heard that Daming had changed its maritime strategy and opened the sea. They bought more Ming goods in the Goryeo market.

But how much has the capacity of sea freight expanded? They have no idea.

But now there is.

The reason why Chung Do-chuan judged that Goryeo was finished. It is based on the special topography of Goryeo. Goryeo is a peninsula. Facing the sea on three sides. Before the sea freight capacity is not enough. There are still a few dangerous places to guard. can keep a corner of the country. But once the Ming Sea reached this point. No part of the Goryeo coastline is safe.

From this point of view.

As long as Goryeo did not have the ability to defeat the Ming in the field, Goryeo's geographical advantages would not become an obstacle to the Ming Dynasty's advance.

Isn't it over?

Li Chenggui had no choice.

I can only obediently follow King Lu.

Man's destiny is so wonderful. The Li family has a history of 500 years in the east of Shanghai. It just disappeared into history. Li Chenggui cannot be said to be untalented. But no matter how talented he is, what can he do under King Lu.

A long time later, when He Xi rectified the paperwork. From an edict, I saw Li Chenggui's name. That's because King Lu made a mistake. Zhu Yuanzhang moved his anger to King Lu's courtiers. killed a group of them, including Li Chenggui's name.

As for Zheng Daochuan. There is not even an official record of this.

I don't know if it's dead or alive.

Maybe live.

People's choices are so strange, if Li Chenggui is simpler and fights to the death with Daming, he will die in the end. Perhaps there is also the name of loyalty, which has a name in history. But a little more selfish. But it became like this.

It can only be said that the world is unpredictable.

------

He Xi and Lan Yu entered the city side by side, and He Xi said, "How is Li Chenggui's side?" It can't be a problem, right? ”

Lan Yu said indifferently: "There is no problem at all? You can rest assured. If Li Chenggui can turn out my palm, it will be a strange thing. You don't want people, the first people have it. Li Chenggui's 50,000 horses, as well as his family, about 120,000 people, can be shipped now. ”

He Xi said: "You don't stay some." Let them carry grain and grass. ”

Lan Yu said: "There is not much else here, but there are many people. You don't have to worry that I can't find anyone. And these stay, it is also a hidden danger. Li Chenggui's subordinates, who knows what it will look like to be infiltrated by the south. Send it to Liaodong simply. ”

"It's you, you have to worry, after all, it's 50,000 strong men, and there will be some trouble in Liaodong. It's not easy to do. ”

He Xiyi pulled the reins and said, "Not bad." Master Hou, then I'm -------"

Lan Yu said: "If you want to leave, I won't keep you, but you have to do your long history before leaving." ”

He Xi said: "What obligation? ”

Lan Yu said, "What did you do in Uiju? I don't need to say it. ”

After entering Goryeo, He Xi's army was too small. It's always been a dead end. He Xi has always thought about how to save the army. Within Goryeo, they did not dare to make a big move. But a lot of things have been done in Uiju, anyway, the current situation, regardless of whether Goryeo can take it down or not. Uiju will definitely not return it to Goryeo.

What did He Xi do in Uiju? It is to release the slaves and maids, and give them land.

In fact, Li Chenggui has been doing this thing since he became the Chao-Xian Taizu. Even because Li Chenggui did a good job, the Chao-Xian Dynasty really had a foundation. It's just that He Xi did not do the same thing as Li Chenggui. Li Chenggui's roots are here in the Chao-Xianshi clan, so he can't go too far. There is only some relief for land annexation.

But He Xi's foundation is not in Goryeo, and he can ignore anything. It was very simple to divide all the arable land in Uiju equally. Let you be the magnate of Goryeo. It's still a flat-headed people. It's all the same.

Because of this practice. Today's Yizhou is like the land of the Ming Dynasty.

Even if the Ming Dynasty retreated from Goryeo. If Goryeo wants to recover Uiju, it must be a bloody battle.

He Xi said: "I don't care. But you're going to want it. As soon as this is done. There is not a single Goryeo that cannot be pacified in three or five years. ”

Lan Yu looked at He Xi with a little resentment in his eyes. How could he not know this in his heart? But if you think about it, you can only do this, on the one hand, because of the surrender of these families. How big a hidden danger there is, Lan Yu himself knows. On the other hand, there is a change in the direction of the imperial court. Although Lan Yu is far away in Goryeo, he also has his own eyeliner in the imperial court. The reform of the imperial court system has already been blown out.

Although Lan Yu didn't get all the content, even if it was part of the content, he knew what Zhu Yuanzhang meant. It still means that taxes are equalized, and the small people are protected, no, it is convenient for the people.

From this wind direction, there is no other way to deal with these big clans of Goryeo.

After all, many times, when fighting a war abroad, the more you have to talk about politics.

Of course, Lan Yu is also greedy for He Xi's effect in doing this. This is also considered militarily. Lan Yu entered Goryeo with a total of 100,000 troops, plus He Xi's 40,000 troops. A total of 140,000 troops, nearly 150,000. Of course, this is a large army, but in the face of the whole of Goryeo, there is still some nervousness.

Especially if the army of more than 100,000 is spread all over Goryeo. It's even more stretched.

Lan Yu sent Li Chenggui's tens of thousands of troops away, not because he didn't need a servant army. After all, Li Chenggui is a member of the Goryeo clan, and many of the generals under his command have their own backgrounds and are inextricably linked with the Goryeo clan.

Such an army, not purged several times. Lan Yu was not at ease. But after cleaning it a few times, Lan Yu was even more uneasy and killed so many people. Are you still willing to die for Daming? So, just start anew. Exercise reliable Goryeo New Army.

How can it be reliable?

In Lan Yu's opinion, the Goryeo soldiers and civilians on the Uiju side could not be more reliable. Encroached on so much land of the Goryeo tribe. Do you not fight to defend your property? This is another reason why Lan Yu is so actively promoting this matter.

Lan Yu said, "If you want to do it, do it." Don't believe me. It won't take that long. ”

Troubled times use heavy codes. Lan Yu has already made up his mind and made a heavy hand, he doesn't believe it, Can the human heart really be as hard as a steel knife?

He Xi saw Lan Yu like this, and Lan Yu could guess a few points in his heart. I sighed secretly in my heart. But his position on himself is very firm, he is the master of the Ming Dynasty, and he will not be sad for the Goryeo people.

He Xi said: "Then let's do it quickly, spring plowing is about to begin." Before the spring ploughing, it will be done for you. Spring ploughing cannot be delayed. ”

Lan Yu said, "That's the best. I also have some things to do before the spring ploughing. Lan Yu's gaze flashed, like a blade.

The blade doesn't know how much blood it will get contaminated.
