Taking a step back, for Li Hongwei, the emperor has given the prince the title and allowed to take away 10% of the royal wealth.

The Lee dynasty has enslaved the Korean people for so many years, looted countless people's fat and ointment, and 10% of the royal family's wealth has been many, many.

If you are no longer satisfied, then continue to fight. When the time comes, the army will be defeated and captured, but there will be nothing.

No matter how good the temper of the Great Tomorrow is, it is impossible to give a captive prince the title and the wealth of the royal family.

Surrender as soon as possible, this is Li Hongwei's cognition.

So Li Hongwei gave his attitude in public: "The matter has come to this, we have done our best." Besides, we were originally a subject of the Ming Dynasty, and now we are incorporated into the Ming Dynasty and directly under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, which is not a good thing for the subjects.

I've made up my mind, let's surrender Kaesong. ”

When Quan Wei and Han Minghun heard this, they immediately knelt on the ground with their ministers, mourning and crying.

The overall situation has been decided, and the next step is to the affectionate performance of the civil and military officials.

The raw rice was cooked into cooked rice, and the monarch of Jincheng and Anping looked at the ministers, crying and laughing.

The Maharaja of Jincheng and the Maharaja of Anping had two choices: either surrender and move to Qiongzhou. Either return to Gyeongsang-do and Jeolla-do, gather the rebel army, and continue to resist.

The Great Tomorrow doesn't care about this, it's a good thing that the Joseon royal family is willing to continue to resist, so you can take advantage of the situation and start killing.

After killing the royal family and the magnates, and confiscating their property, there will be more land to distribute to the people.

The Grand Monarch of Jincheng and the Grand Prince of Anping did not immediately express their position, and after the court meeting was dispersed, they went to discuss countermeasures in private.

On the 27th day of the first lunar month, in the name of the king of Joseon, Li Hongwei ordered the military and civilians of the whole country to formally surrender, and transferred 30,000 Kaesong troops to Deokwon to join the siege of the Japanese army.

On the second day of the second month of February, Jiang Yuan, Xu Heng, and Xu Yongning led an army of 20,000 troops to Seoul.

Li Hongwei led his ministers out of the city and surrendered.

Since the conditions had already been negotiated, Li Hongwei did not take the blame for Jing Yue.

Li Hongwei was named the prince, but Jiang Yuan, Xu Heng, and Xu Yongning all treated him with courtesy as the prince of the county, after all, this kind of surrendered king could not be compared with the real Prince of Daming.

Xu Yongning and Li Hongwei are familiar with each other, in the past, the emperor sent Yu Shan and Li Jin to North Korea to buy servants, and Xu Yongning came with them.

At that time, Li Hongwei was still the prince of the king, and the two were equal, so the king of North Korea at that time specially sent Li Hongwei to accompany Xu Yongning to understand the customs and customs.

It's just that I didn't expect that after a few years, the two would reunite in such a scenario.

But after all, it is much easier to talk with acquaintances, and Li Hongwei welcomed everyone into the city and feasted in the palace.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, seeing that Li Hongwei was still worried, Xu Yongning persuaded him: "Your Highness doesn't have to worry, the Holy One is not going to trap you in Qiongzhou for the rest of your life." ”

As soon as Li Hongwei heard this, he immediately asked, "What do you mean by Dingguo Gong's words?" ”

Xu Yongning introduced Li Sicheng who was sitting next to him to Li Hongwei: "Your Highness, this is the fourth brother of the former King of Annam, and he was named the King of the Plains by the Holy Lord.

The original royal family of Annam has moved to Qiongzhou, but the king of Pingyuan was specially left by the saint, and this time he was sent to the Ming army to counsel the military affairs.

Therefore, after His Royal Highness arrives in Beijing, if he can operate one or two, and the Holy Lord is in a good mood, he may leave you behind. ”

And what's going on? It was the first time that Li Hongwei heard that the King of Pingyuan was in the Ming army.

Zhu Qiyu sent Li Sicheng, the king of the plains, to follow him to North Korea, and he already had the intention of setting an example for the Korean royal family. However, letting Li Sicheng Counsellor for military affairs is just a decent statement, in fact, Li Sicheng can only observe the battle formation in the army.

Hope is good, Li Hongwei didn't want to stay in Qiongzhou for the rest of his life, so he asked: "Please also ask Dingguo Gong to guide me and teach me a lesson." ”

Xu Yongning said with a smile: "What the saint cares about on weekdays is just his family. As long as the queen mother and princesses are happy, they will naturally have the opportunity to open up the net.

What is the difference between offering a concubine to the Holy One like the one you thought about before and killing yourself? The imperial concubines don't want to have any new people to share the saint with them, and if you make the imperial concubines angry, they can only go to Qiongzhou for the rest of their lives. ”

Li Hongwei realized that there were still these mysteries, no wonder the emperor was quite unkind to his overtures.

But Li Hongwei immediately asked curiously: "Shouldn't the emperor be a harem, is it possible that the imperial concubines still have the ability to prevent the emperor from accepting new concubines?" ”

Xu Yongning said with a smile: "Let's go back and talk in private, the Holy Lord ordered me to accompany His Highness into Beijing, and when I get to Beijing to live for a few days, you will be able to understand these doorways." ”

When Li Hongwei heard this, he temporarily stopped his curiosity.

……

On the sixth day of February, the news of the official surrender of Korea reached the hands of the Ming and Korean allied forces besieging the Japanese army.

After Fan Guang read the text, he passed it to Fang Ying.

After reading it, Fang Ying sincerely admired: "It was really done, I always thought that the North Korean peace talks were just casual talk and used to delay time."

I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that North Korea, which still has nearly 100,000 troops, would not fight.

The two princes on the battlefield on the Western Front have already gone to Seoul to eat, drink and have fun, and our two marquis on the Eastern Front have to continue to starve and freeze. ”

Fan Guang said with a smile: "We have to hurry, and if we try to rub the Japanese army from the sea in a boat, it will be broken." ”

"The military newspaper said that the Korean sailors were not assembled in Busan to prevent Japan from sending warships to support?"

Fan Guang replied: "Don't worry, the saint has told me that from the Japanese mainland to send warships to Anbian, it will take at least more than 2,000 miles at sea."

At such a distance, in the event of a storm, the fleet will all sink if it is not managed.

It is not so easy, and if Japan wants to rescue, the best option is to land from Busan.

But Pusan has 30,000 North Korean sailors and hundreds of large and small warships.

Besides, Japan's civil war is getting more and more intense, how can you still have the heart to rescue the Japanese army who entered Korea. ”

"And when are we going to attack?"

Fan Guang shook his head: "If we don't attack, let the North Korean army attack it." This is the condition agreed before, and we can't let our soldiers make senseless sacrifices.

It turned out that Anbian had already fought, and at that time it was Nanhe Hou You who led the Ming army to defend, and the Japanese army was the attacking side, and the city walls were all collapsed by artillery at that time.

The original collapsed city wall has not been completely repaired.

Now that the offensive and defensive forces are changing, it is enough to command the North Korean army to shell the original gap. ”

Fang Ying sighed with a serious face: "In the original battle of Anbian, the Ming army killed and injured countless soldiers, and I want to avenge them with my own hands." ”

Fan Guang shook his head: "It's about the overall situation, Nanhehou don't be rash." At the beginning of the battle of Tumubao, the Ming army died 500,000 people, and when we fought the defense of the Beijing Division, we were not in a hurry, and we were not in a hurry to take revenge, but slowly consumed and died first.

Now Anbian City is already fat to the mouth, let the North Korean army fill it with human lives, and it will be done.

If we rush forward to fight for will, the Holy One will blame it, and no one can afford it. ”

Now these 30,000 Ming troops are all new troops trained by Fan Guang, and Fang Ying can't command them. So since Fan Guang insisted on sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, Fang Ying had to accept it.

In the afternoon of the same day, 30,000 North Korean troops moved to the west of Anbyon and set up camp and began shelling.
