Chapter 290: Heroic Wind!
State Guest House, in the lobby.
After listening to the words of His Royal Highness the King of Chu, the three Koreans were in different moods.
Jin Tao is naturally excited, his fate has been bound to the mission, the mission lives, he is born; and when the mission is destroyed, he dies.
He wished that the greater the weight of the mission, the better, so big that no one dared to move, so big that most people had to protect them, wouldn't he be safe?
Zheng Mengzhou was nervous. The so-called pro-Ming faction was originally nothing more than a political proposition, a political slogan that gathered factions. For the sake of pro-Ming or pro-Yuan, everyone is nothing more than fighting for a red face, at most they will be dismissed from office, and it is a big deal to go back to their hometown to bully men and women to enjoy happiness.
But after learning that there were five Highnesses in the mission, everything was different. Now it's not about kissing or not, but about taking your own life.
If you don't risk your life to save the five highnesses, let the emperor taste the pain of losing his son five times. The Hongwu Emperor of Weizhen Huanyu will definitely throw aside the Laoshizi Mongols and raise the national army to conquer in person.
Goryeo is already poor and weak, and it has been repeatedly attacked by soldiers in the past few decades, and it is extremely tired. Even if the capital city is so desolate, the poverty of the whole of Goryeo can be imagined, how can it withstand the millions of heavenly soldiers who are in the sky and angry?!
Zheng Mengmeng thought of the terrible consequences of the death of the five princes in Goryeo, and the whole person sweated. He realized that he had to risk his life to protect these five mortal treasures.
As for Li Chenggui's thoughts, they are much more complicated.
This famous general in Goryeo, second only to Cui Ying, is in his early forties, the best age for men. He has high cheekbones, eagle eyes, curled hair, and a rough appearance, but his mind is outrageously detailed......
He had shaken off the confusion he had been in when he first arrived, and had begun to calmly reflect on his situation.
In Goryeo's political spectrum, Yi Sung-gye is generally counted in the pro-Yuan faction sequence.
Because since his great-grandfather Li Anshe, he was an official in the Yuan Dynasty. Their family also intermarried with the Yuan Dynasty for generations, and his father's name was 'Wulu Si Buhua', who was already a Mongolianized Goryeo.
At the time of the Yuan and Ming dynasties, his father felt that the Mongols would be finished sooner or later, so he became the internal response of Goryeo again, assisting the Goryeo army to capture the Yuan Dynasty's Shuangcheng Governor's Office.
After annexing Goryeo, the two of them restored their Goryeo name, and then used the Shuangcheng Governor's Mansion as their old nest and began to fight in the south and north of Goryeo to earn political capital.
Therefore, Li Chenggui is fundamentally different from Li Renren and Cui Ying, who are military ministers of the Dutang, he will not be as loyal and patriotic as Cui Ying at all, nor will he be like Li Renren, who thinks that if he masters the Dutang, he will control everything.
To put it bluntly, he is a warlord thinker - as long as there is an army and a territory, there is everything. So the army and the territory are what he values the most. What loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness are, it's all a fart. What kind of imperial power, there is no army and territory......
Of course, without the power of the imperial court, both the army and the territory could be taken away. So in order to keep his army and territory, he has always regarded himself as a pro-Yuan faction. and he was too capable of fighting, which made the Dutang Wuchen accept him as an outsider and let him sit in the ninth position.
Although the ranking is a bit low, it is enough to protect his army and territory.
And after being in Goryeo for so long, he also knows how xenophobic these land-sitting households are. If there are no great variables, it would be good if I could keep my position, and I don't want to make any more progress.
And now, great variables have emerged......
~~
The reason why Li Chenggui considered changing camps was not only the temptation of prospects, but also the pressure of reality.
His territory was located in the northern part of Goryeo. If the Ming army wants to invade, his own Shuangcheng Governor's Mansion will be the first to bear the brunt of the forefront.
Even if Goryeo was lucky enough not to destroy the country in the end, his territory would be smashed to pieces. People are dead, the land is abandoned, and the foundation of life is completely lost. Still playing fart after that?
Those military ministers of the capital hall who have been hairpins for generations will definitely kick him, an outsider with no roots, into the air.
But if he really asked him to do it against the dukes, he didn't have the guts.
He was afraid that Li Renren, that skillful and ruthless politician, would not be able to play by himself.
He was afraid of Cui Ying. Li Chenggui has served as the deputy of this famous general who has won all battles and never tasted defeat, and he knows that he is not his opponent when it comes to fighting.
And I heard that Cui Ying had already gone out of the city to transfer his descendant army, the Baishou Army. And Li Chenggui's descendants are still far away in Shuangcheng.
These two have formed an alliance, Li Chenggui has thin arms and legs, how dare he act rashly?
~~
In the front hall, the guests and hosts each have ghosts, and there is no idle ride.
In the backyard, it's a different story.
Torches shine in the sky.
The five hundred feathers of Lin Wei, who had been recuperating for a day, were gathered by Cai Qianhu and announced to them the true identities of the three highnesses!
The Yulin guards are not blind, and they have already seen the two deputy envoys of Zheng, who are respectful to these brothers and obey their words. I knew that their true identities must be extraordinary.
I just never thought it would be so unusual......
After they met with the three highnesses with a shocked heart, Zhu concisely introduced their current situation to them.
Hearing that the Goryeo people had already mobilized troops to prepare to kill them, and then surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty, there was a buzz in the patio, and the soldiers couldn't hold back and whispered.
There's anger, there's worry, there's fear, or both. In short, everyone realizes that they are now in a desperate situation.
"Everyone, listen to me." But I heard Zhu Di, the king of Yan, say proudly: "For today's plan, the more we worry about our life and death, the more likely we are to encounter accidents!" On the contrary, the more we put life and death aside, the more likely we are to be safe! ”
"What do you mean by that?" The soldiers asked puzzled.
"Because the only thing that can save us now is our identity!" Zhu Di answered first and then asked:
"Who are we?"
"We are the Ming Mission." The soldiers said.
"What does the mission stand for?" Zhu Di asked again.
"It represents the Ming Dynasty." The crowd replied.
"So what should we think about the most?!" Zhu Di asked step by step.
"Live up to the mission and maintain the national character of the Ming Dynasty!" All the soldiers responded with a bang, and their voices were amplified a lot, obviously awakened by the fourth child.
"That's right!" At this time, Zhu didn't go against the fourth child, and followed his meaning, and said sonorously:
"What would happen if in the Han Dynasty there was a Han envoy who was killed by a small country? The "Book of Han" says it clearly - South Vietnam killed the Han envoys and slaughtered them into nine counties. King Wan killed the Han envoy, Touxian Beique. North Korea kills the Han envoy and exterminates it immediately! ”
The third child waved his fist and said, "Not to mention the countless giants who have destroyed the country!" If Gonggong Huang was the envoy of the Han and Tang Dynasties, would the Koreans dare to touch a single hair of his hair?!
"Why did Gao Li dare to kill Huang Gonggong, why did he dare to repeat it? Isn't it because we Han people have been sinking for too long and have forgotten the heroic style of the Han and Tang dynasties in China? Only afraid of the wolf-like Hu people?! ”
"Our Han people have been sinking for hundreds of years, so we can expel the Tartars today and restore the grand occasion of China!" Zhu Di took over the conversation, and his voice roared like a tiger:
"How can my generation be greedy for life and afraid of death, and then disgrace my Han family?!"
"Can't! No! The blood of the crowd was full of blood, and they raised their arms and shouted in unison.
