Hongwu Daming: Why hasn't my son rebelled?
Chapter 192 Prepare for Battle!
Chapter 192 Prepare for Battle!
What Li Chengxu said was swearing, if it was replaced by some people with weak willpower and muddled minds, they might really think this is a good way.
But in Zhu Qi's place, every word Li Chengxu said, that fart made no difference.
Handing over the Liaodong Peninsula, even if Beiyuan was defeated, so what?
What is the difference between that and Shijingtang selling Yanyun Sixteen States?
What's more, Da Ming didn't need the help of Gao Li to defeat Bei Yuan.
Even if Gao Li and Bei Yuan teamed up, it would only make Daming feel a little tricky.
But until the last moment, Zhu Qi will try his best to prevent Daming from fighting Goryeo and Beiyuan at the same time.
There is no need to make a [-]-[-] split into a [-]-[-] split.
Zhu Qi was not in a hurry to refute Li Chengxu immediately, but thought about it seriously, and then said:
"Your Majesty really said so?"
Li Chengxu nodded seriously, and then said in a firm tone:
"This Bei Yuan is cruel and ridiculous, and the fate of the country is not long, so it is naturally impossible for our king to continue to stand with Bei Yuan.
But our Great Tomorrow Dynasty is different, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger, and has the potential to annex the world, our king is naturally willing to follow the Heavenly Dynasty. "
Zhu Qi rolled his eyes in his heart, and really wanted to ask, how dare you want Liaodong?
Of course what Li Chengxu said was flattery, Zhu Qi knew it in his heart, so he didn't point it out.
Just nodded, looking very useful, and then said:
"Your king has always seen the situation clearly, but your king accepted Bei Yuan's canonization.
My royal father was very angry when he found out about this matter. Even if you came to tell me about this matter, I don't know how to reply you for a while.
How about this way, the envoy will stay in my Liaodong mansion for a few days, and make a decision after the king reports the matter back, how about it? "
Li Chengxu naturally knew that Zhu Yuanzhang would not agree to the matter of begging Liaodong.
But Zhu Qi, the king of Liao, did not have the right to call the shots. If he went back and asked Zhu Yuanzhang, something would probably happen.
But this is the order of his own king, and Li Chengxu has no way to violate such an order, so he can only nod and trouble His Royal Highness Liao to go back and ask.
For the next few days, Li Chengxu stayed alone in the Liao Palace, waiting for an answer.
After waiting for several days, Zhu Qiyi finally received Zhu Yuanzhang's order.
Originally thought that Zhu Yuanzhang had arranged for personnel to come to defend, but unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang did not flinch, and directly took the initiative to attack.
One copy of the imperial decree is for Zhu Qi and one copy is for the King of Korea.
The imperial decree to Zhu Qi is very simple, that is, to expel the envoys of Goryeo, and then prepare for war.
Soldiers were recruited locally in Liaoyang, and the Central Plains had also dispatched elite soldiers to Liaodong.
It is estimated that the earliest batch will arrive in Liaodong and so on within a month.
Another copy is for King Goryeo.
And this imperial decree to King Goryeo is not so polite.
First, he denounced the treachery of King Goryeo, and two years ago, I came to Daming to beg the princess, with a humble attitude.
My Emperor Ming also rewarded you with the title of King of Koryo, but now you are taking refuge in Beiyuan.
It is really shameless for me to ask Daming for Liaodong.
Don’t think about Liaodong, not only will Liaodong not give you Korea, but you also have to return Tieling to Daming!
Speaking of Tieling, it was called the Shuangcheng Governor's Mansion in the Yuan Dynasty, and Li Chenggui was born in this place.
However, Tieling was our territory in the Central Plains when it was in the Western Han Dynasty.
In the back, the weak and large northern territory of the Northern Song Dynasty was lost to the barbarians, and during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, Tieling was still under the control of Goryeo.
Zhu Yuanzhang is the emperor who wants to annex the world and unify China.
Naturally, Tieling will not continue to be under the control of Goryeo. Zhu Yuanzhang has long had plans and goals to subdue Tieling, but there has been no suitable opportunity.
And now that Gao Li is so ignorant of flattery, there is no need to talk nonsense.
After Zhu Qi saw the imperial decree, he also heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, sighing that he deserves to be the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang through the ages!
I was still worrying back and forth, and when I didn't want to go to war with Goryeo and Beiyuan, Zhu Yuanzhang had already waved his hand, and let him beat you.
This is not just a kind of domineering, but also a kind of self-confidence.
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang made such a statement, Zhu Qi became tough, so he didn't have to bother with Gao Li.
He directly took the imperial decree and handed it to Li Chengxu, and said with a straight face:
"Li Chengxu, what did the king say earlier?
Is this Liaodong something you Koryo can ask for at will?
This king has reported to the emperor. The emperor's intention is not only to let you stop thinking about Liaodong, but also to return Tieling to our Daming as soon as possible.
I know that you are just a minister, you don't have this right, you take this imperial decree to the King of Korea and tell him, it may be too late to make an apology now. "
After Zhu Qi finished speaking, he put his hands behind his back and was ready to see off the guests.
Li Chengxu was also stunned. He didn't expect the emperor of Ming Dynasty to be so stubborn, and he was about to tear his face with Gao Li.
Shouldn't the art of diplomacy be in circles with each other?
This is because Li Chengxu doesn't know much about Ming Dynasty. From the beginning of Zhu Yuanzhang to the death of Emperor Chongzhen who hanged himself on Meishan Mountain in the Ming Dynasty, for more than 200 years, every emperor, except for the name of the emperor, had no soft-hearted.
It has always been external, or stop talking nonsense, and let me do the nonsense.
The attitude of the Ming Dynasty has become very tough, and Zhu Qi will naturally follow Zhu Yuanzhang's wishes.
After Li Chengxu was expelled, he didn't feel any regrets in his heart, after all, it was within his expectation.
But when Li Chengxu was planning to go back, Zhu Qi still had a heart-to-heart talk with him.
It's not other things, just say that I and Li Chengxu are still very close, and if this Koryo dares to go to war against the Ming Dynasty, the result can be imagined.
The King of Koryo certainly won't live long. He doesn't want to see a capable person like Li Xu die in this kind of war.
Later, Zhu Qi mentioned Li Chenggui intentionally or unintentionally, and praised Li Chenggui a lot.
To put it bluntly, Li Chenggui has the appearance of a great king, and he is inferior to a mediocre person. Being a general is really inferior.
He also said that his father Zhu Yuanzhang had always told him about Li Chenggui.
It is said that this person is quite capable. If he came to be the king of Goryeo, the national power of Goryeo would definitely not be as weak as it is now.
Anyway, it was just to flatter Li Chenggui, and Zhu Qi knew about Li Chenggui's abilities.
In China, it is now under one person and above ten thousand people,
If Li Chenggui had no intention of rebelling, Zhu Qi would never believe it.
As Li Chengxu's cousin, Li Chengxu would naturally be aware of some insider hints that were already so obvious. Zhu Qi believed that Li Chengxu would definitely tell Li Chenggui about this after he returned.
In other words, to put it simply, this is equivalent to Daming giving Li Chenggui a guarantee.
If Li Chenggui can stand up and pull down the fatuous Goryeo king, Daming is willing to recognize him as the new Goryeo king.
Zhu Qi didn't believe that Li Chenggui was really not moved, but the seed was just buried, and what kind of fruit would it bear in the end, he could only wait quietly.
But the battle with Goryeo is inevitable.
Zhu Qi was also fully prepared to prepare for the battle, but a new problem came up, that is, he had no generals under his command!
Although Zhu Yuanzhang sent troops over and asked Zhu Qi to prepare for the battle, the imperial decree did not say that he would send famous generals to lead the battle.
It's not that Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to, but that he really didn't have any generals to send out.
Feng Sheng, Fu Youde and others were all confronting Bei Yuan on the northern front, while Xu Da was confronting Liang Wangna's troops on the western front.
As for Sapphire, Zhu Yuanzhang obviously didn't want to continue to use Sapphire to fight so quickly after the incident with Hu Weiyong.
As for the other second-line generals, in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, he probably felt that the level of those generals was not much higher than Zhu Qi's.
Instead of using those second-line generals, it is better to directly use his son as the leading general to fight against Goryeo's attack.
After Zhu Qi thought of this, he couldn't laugh or cry.
It seems that Zhu Yuanzhang really misunderstood his own image a lot in his heart. He is obviously a prince who fishes in troubled waters.
Unexpectedly, in everyone's eyes, he had unknowingly become His Royal Highness King Liao who was capable of conquering and fighting.
However, although those famous generals were not sent over, some unfamous generals still came.
For example, General Ma Yun, who has cooperated with Zhu Qi before and fought side by side, and is now in command of the Daming Navy.
Zhu Yuanzhang obviously also knew that the navy would be indispensable in the battle with Goryeo, so he sent Ma Yun to support Zhu Qi.
This is definitely great news for Zhu Qi. If there is Ma Yun, then the Liaohe section of the northern line can be handed over to Ma Yun for defense.
Ma Yun is a well-known defender.
In history, Jack Ma was famous for guarding Liaodong.
Beiyuan's many attacks were thwarted by Ma Yun, but now he just needs to follow history and let Ma Yun continue to defend Liaodong.
Turn around and deal with Gao Li by yourself, isn't that all right?
Of course, it would be unrealistic for Zhu Qi to lead troops to fight Goryeo by himself. After all, Zhu Qi also had a full understanding of his abilities.
However, Zhu Qi still has a useful general on hand, and that is Zhang Yu.
Needless to say Zhang Yu's ability, he was sent to the Liaohe defense line, and in just a few days he had already gained a firm foothold, and even won a battle.
It may seem a bit too bold in the eyes of other generals to use Zhang Yu to lead troops to attack Goryeo.
After all, he didn't have a comprehensive understanding of Zhang Yu's ability, but Zhu Qi had seen history in his heart.
Naturally, he understood Zhang Yu's ability, which was not comparable to that of ordinary generals, at least a general of Feng Sheng and Fu Youde's level.
It can be said that Zhu Di was able to seize the throne and win the battle of Jingnan, thanks to Zhang Yu's contribution.
If the troops are dispatched in this way, it can be guaranteed that there will be no problems with the defense lines in the north and east.
And the east can even break through and take the initiative to touch Goryeo.
Of course, the best situation is that Li Chenggui can follow the development of history and directly mutiny back to the King of Korea.
Then Zhu Qi is sure that Zhu Yuanzhang will definitely give Li Chenggui the title of North Korea.
Then follow the historical process to develop friendly relations with North Korea.
It's just that you have to be wary of Li Chenggui, after all, Li Chenggui in history didn't wholeheartedly join the Ming Dynasty.
Li Chenggui is a typical two-faced faction, bowing to the Ming Dynasty diplomatically, but creating military conflicts in a mediocre manner in the military.
The reason was that Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to recover the entire Tieling at that time, and Tieling's words included the territory east of the Yalu River.
However, at that time the territory east of the Yalu River was already under the control of North Korea.
So such behavior was resisted by Li Chenggui.
He didn't dare to say it publicly, but he kept making small moves in private, sending troops to drive away the Ming army, etc., was also a common occurrence.
This also made Zhu Yuanzhang very angry. In his later years, he even planned to send generals to attack North Korea to teach Li Chenggui a lesson.
But within a few years, Zhu Yuanzhang died of illness.
Then came the Battle of Jingnan, and the complete recovery of Tieling to attack North Korea has been put on hold.
Later, for strategic reasons, the Ming Dynasty mainly used the policy in the north to deal with many tribes in the Oirats and grasslands.
With Korea, it is based on the principle of mutual alliance, and the relationship has become much better, and the territory east of the Yalu River has not been asked more.
But now, the Ming Dynasty is bound to win the entire Tieling territory.
And the dead-brained king of Koryo naturally wouldn't give in, and in history he also sent troops to take the initiative to attack.
The king of Koryo will definitely let Li Chenggui send troops to attack the dynasty, so Zhu Qi has to make plans early.
Directly let Ma Yunyi go to Liaohe to take over Zhang Yu's position, and then let Zhang Yu return to Liaoyang to call for recruit training.
After this operation, the first batch of reinforcements from Shandong had arrived in Liaodong, and Zhu Qi also handed over these reinforcements and recruits to Li Jinglong for training.
Although Li Jinglong's actual combat level is not very good, his theoretical knowledge and military training level are still quite high.
Especially the level of military training is the highest among the young generals Zhu Qi met.
The recruits who have been trained, not to mention other combat capabilities, have higher political awareness than each other.
Going forward while shouting the slogan, Zhu Qi thought he was back in the modern military training.
One of the attitudes that these have always adhered to is that although the army pays attention to individual combat capabilities.
But in ancient times, under such a large square combat environment, the collective consciousness and willpower of the army were more important than individual combat capabilities.
Even if you have infinite strength as a single soldier, you cannot defeat a group of soldiers at all.
And when a group of soldiers fights against a group of soldiers, it depends on which side has stronger execution ability, endurance and fighting will.
This is also why the elite troops in ancient times were measured by war damage and escape.
The general army loses about 10% to 20% in battle, and the morale is about to collapse.
And when the battle damage of elite troops reaches 50%, they can still continue to fight. This is already the king's division in ancient times.
As for how much the Ming army trained according to Zhu Qi's method can still be strong, it is not clear.
After all, during the Hongwu period, the army of the Ming Dynasty was really invincible.
Up to now, Zhu Qi has not been defeated in a battle. As for whether he will lose in the future, Zhu Qi thinks that the possibility is not very high.
After all, even if the year of Hongwu has passed, it is assumed that Zhu Di came to power in the future.
Not to mention the martial arts Changlong of the Ming Dynasty, fighting the nomads in the north, it was really a rush.
Anyway, it will be over as soon as Arimori does it.
The military force here is constantly preparing, and the supplies are also transported by sea towards the Liaodong Peninsula.
Ever since Zhu Qi defeated Beiyuan's fleet, an invincible Ming Dynasty navy escorted the Ming Dynasty, connecting the water routes of Liaodong, and continuously transporting supplies.
Zhu Yuanzhang obviously also realized the importance of water and land, so when Zhu Qi wanted to build a new warship in Liaodong, Zhu Yuanzhang also fully supported it.
After all, after the blessing of the related theory now, there must be more and more money in the Ming Dynasty. After Zhu Yuanzhang has money in his hands, he will naturally have a lot of confidence in doing anything.
Just as the Ming Dynasty was making intensive preparations to deal with the war in Goryeo.
Wang Baobao of the Northern Yuan Dynasty also received the news that the Korean envoys were expelled immediately.
It was the first time that Wang Baobao was so happy, and his strategy seemed to be completely successful.
But for Bei Yuan, this is just an opportunity for a turning point. Whether he can seize this opportunity, Wang Baobao can only see the next development of the situation.
But Beiyuan has also started to mobilize and is ready for battle. If Goryeo sends troops to attack the Ming Dynasty, Beiyuan will attack the Ming Dynasty immediately.
But Wang Baobao ignored one person, that is Zhu Qi who had read history books.
Unlike Zhu Qi, Wang Baobao knew what would happen in Korea. How could he have predicted that Li Chenggui was about to mutiny and seize power!
Just as Zhu Qi imagined, Li Chenggui in Koryo has now become a subordinate of one person and a superior of ten thousand people.
Although it is not the kind that directly empties the King of Korea on the surface.
But Li Chenggui's power has also skyrocketed unprecedentedly in Korea.
Most of the officials in the court are looking forward to Li Chenggui.
In fact, Li Chenggui has long wanted to replace the king of Koryo as the king himself, but he has never caught a good opportunity, and the domestic situation in Korea is not covered by himself.
In addition to the King of Korea and Li Chenggui, there is another No. [-] figure in Korea, and he is Cui Ying.
This Cui Ying is also a famous general of Goryeo, the fifth grandson of Cui Weiqing, the prime minister of the Goryeo Dynasty, and his father corrected Cui Yuanzhi for Sixian.
I won't say much about the gentleman, anyway, I know that this Cui Ying has made great military exploits, not only won the battle against the Japanese pirates, but also judged the rebellion in Koryo many times, and she is also loyal to the King of Koryo.
This Cui Ying's status is similar to that of Huo Guang who assisted Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty during the Han Dynasty.
As for Li Chenggui, his father was a general who came from Beiyuan.
By the time Li Chenggui was able to achieve such a high position in only two generations, it was also thanks to the family alliance with Cui Ying.
It can be said that without Cui Ying's help, Li Chenggui's family would never have occupied the core position of Goryeo so quickly.
Although Li Chenggui's success is due to Cui Ying's help, but at this stage, if he wants to take a step forward, Cui Ying is still standing in front of him.
Cui Ying is a firm king's party, and she will definitely not let Li Chenggui usurp power and become the new King of Goryeo.
So Li Chenggui knew very well that if he wanted to gain power, he had to suppress Cui Ying as well.
As for how to suppress, Li Chenggui actually did not have a detailed plan.
However, when his cousin Li Chengxu came back with the imperial decree of the Ming Dynasty, Li Chenggui seemed to see a great opportunity.
The Ming Dynasty's reprimand of Goryeo naturally caused an uproar in the Goryeo court.
At this time, the alliance formed by Cui Ying and Li Chenggui has firmly controlled the political arena in Korea, with Cui Ying as the leader and the hardliners as the leader.
And Goryeo has just completed the anti-Yuan reform, and has gotten rid of the control of Bei Yuan in various aspects, and its self-confidence is unprecedentedly inflated.
They didn't even pay attention to the rise of the Central Plains Empire, Ming Dynasty, and Cui Ying directly proposed the strategy of occupying Liaodong to the king.
This is why the current King of Koryo insists on asking the Ming Dynasty for Liaodong.
But Cui Ying's strategy is obviously too radical, and now it has already received a fierce reaction from the Ming Dynasty.
In the court of Goryeo, it is inevitable that some ministers feel afraid, and hope that the king of Goryeo can stop, apologize to the Ming Dynasty and admit his mistakes.
Then this Cui Ying is a well-known military commander, how could she allow this kind of thing to happen in China?
In Cui Ying's view, the whole world belongs to them, and it can be said that they have perfectly inherited the tradition of Bangzi.
So after Cui Ying barked like a dog in the court hall, the courtiers and officials of Goryeo also took stimulants like Cui Ying, and they all clamored to attack Daming.
And the King of Koryo, who saw the scene in front of him, also slapped his chair and stood up, his whole body was disorganized.
If he didn't know the result behind this guy, he would have thought that he was going to rule the world soon, and the male protagonists in TV dramas probably wouldn't dare to act like him.
He didn't say much, and immediately ordered Li Chenggui to lead the army to attack and attack Daming to occupy the entire Liaodong.
Let Cui Ying write a letter to Beiyuan, asking Beiyuan to cooperate with Goryeo's military operations and put pressure on Daming.
Good guy, he bowed his head to Bei Yuan before, but now he has already asked Bei Yuan to cooperate with his actions.
I have to say that as long as this stick gets a little bit cheap, it will start to swell immediately. It has been like this since ancient times, and there is nothing wrong with it.
It can be said that Goryeo has gone crazy from top to bottom. Li Chenggui saw it in his eyes and knew that such a King of Goryeo was a good time for him to strike.
At this time, normal courtiers should persuade King Goryeo to calm down.
But Li Chenggui's goal is the chair under the King of Korea's ass, so naturally he will not persuade the King of Korea to calm down.
Like other ministers, he boasted of King Gaoli's great achievements and helped King Gaoli look forward to an infinitely bright future.
After getting Liaodong, he went south to the Central Plains and swept the whole world, becoming the co-lord of the Chinese Empire, and so on.
Anyway, after one operation, Li Chenggui successfully obtained the military power of Goryeo.
Then what I thought about in my heart was not how to master the soldiers and horses to defeat the Ming Dynasty's army, but when and when to launch a mutiny to go back to control the government and establish myself as king.
These three parties all have their own ideas, Bei Yuan's side is ready to move, and Li Chenggui's side is sure to win.
He has already sent his cousin Li Chengxu to Liaodong to find the King of Liao, discussing an alliance with each other, and then going to Korea!
Ever since, in August of the 11th year of Hongwu.
Under the leadership of Li Chenggui, the Goryeo army marched mightily towards the Yalu River.
He vowed to cross the Yalu River and attack Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty, and Wang Baobao in the Northern Yuan Dynasty also ordered the Yuan Dynasty troops on the northern front to attack across the board.
The only goal is to hold back the Yuan Dynasty's army on the northern defense line, so that it has no time to look east.
As long as Goryeo and Ming's armies fight, the more brutal the better, Wang Baobao will have more chances.
However, Wang Baobao hadn't been happy for a long time before he got a piece of unexpected news.
That is, before Li Chenggui's army reached the Yalu River, a mutiny had already occurred, and they were about to return to the Koryo King City.
As for what to do when you go back, of course it goes without saying.
Li Chenggui's control of the Goryeo court is already a certainty.
But apart from that, there was another thing that Wang Baobao of Northern Yuan, Li Chenggui of Goryeo, and other courtiers of Goryeo didn't expect at all.
That is, the army of the Ming Dynasty was even faster than Li Chenggui.
Originally, Li Chenggui planned to cross the Yalu River, and then wrote a letter back to the King of Korea when he was on Weihua Island, saying that the morale of his army was low, and he asked to return.
At this time, King Gaoli will definitely refuse, and Li Chenggui can logically set off the statement that King Gaoli does not care about their life and death in the hearts of the soldiers.
Then it is logical to return to Korea to seize power.
Unexpectedly, Li Chenggui, with his soldiers and horses, had just crossed the Datong River and was about to move towards the Yalu River.
But they saw that in Tieling City, an important stronghold on the east side of the Yalu River, the flag that originally belonged to Koryo had been lowered, and the flag of the Ming Dynasty was flying.
The people Li Chenggui saw were dumbfounded. They never expected that the Ming Dynasty would occupy Tieling City.
When did it happen, why is there no news at all?
Could it be that His Royal Highness King Liao first sent troops to help him?
Li Chenggui thought about this in his heart, and then hurriedly asked people to go to the city to inquire about the situation. As soon as the Ming army in the city saw Tieling City coming, the Goryeo soldiers were not too wordy, and directly shouted at them. :
"What are you doing? Can't you see the flag of the Ming Dynasty hanging here?"
Those Goryeo soldiers also looked confused, and then someone who could speak Chinese replied:
"We came here on the orders of the king. This Tielingchen belonged to us in Korea before. Why is your Ming Dynasty occupying it now? Please quit quickly!"
Then the Ming Dynasty has already hung its flag in the city, so it is still possible to withdraw and give up the city to you?
The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty naturally didn't talk too much, and ignored these Korean soldiers, and these Korean soldiers had no choice but to go back and report.
Li Chenggui was thinking about what was going on, when he received a letter from His Royal Highness Liao Wang.
Zhu Qi had already expected that it must be Li Chenggui.
And I know that Li Chenggui doesn't think about Liaodong at all in his heart, but he wants to know that he wants to go back to occupy the throne of Korea, so at this time, it is natural to have an advantage and not take advantage of the bastard!
I have occupied this Tieling City, and you, Li Chenggui, dare to come and fight with our Ming Dynasty and fail.
If you come to fight with our Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty will not be afraid of you at all, even your Li Chenggui's throne will definitely be gone.
Li Chenggui naturally understood this truth, Zhu Qi just seized this opportunity, Li Chenggui did not dare to do anything impulsive.
Of course, I still want to give him face, so I wrote a letter to Li Chenggui.
It didn't mean that the dynasty wanted to occupy Tielingcheng, but that he brought the Ming army here because he wanted to cooperate with Li Chenggui. If something went wrong, the Ming army could also help Li Chenggui take the Koryo royal city.
Of course, Zhu Qi also knew that Li Chenggui would never lead the Ming army to the Koryo royal city.
But now it is an established fact that the Ming Dynasty occupied Tieling City, even if Li Chenggui had an opinion, he couldn't say it.
Li Chenggui didn't know what the Ming Dynasty and Liao Wang Zhu Qi were thinking about.
But he can't say, without the support of the Ming Dynasty, whether he can succeed in the throne of Koryo is another matter.
As for Tieling City, it can only be managed later.
Li Chenggui really gritted his teeth, and he could only swallow it in his stomach. He ordered his subordinates to lead the army and headed towards Wangcheng.
And Zhu Qi's plan to lead the Ming army to occupy Tieling City was not thought of by Zhu Qi, but by Zhang Yu.
According to Zhang Yu, if Daming wants to regain Tieling now, the most important thing is to cross the Yalu River.
Because there is a big river here, if you don't go to the other side of the river, it's easy to be turned into a fact that Goryeo will rule the river.
After all, there are no planes or ships these days. It is not easy to cross a big river.
Goryeo, if the river is defended, it is really difficult for the Ming Dynasty to attack.
After crossing the river, the best place to occupy is Tieling. Tieling City is backed by the Yalu River, and it is also the core city of Tieling.
If Tieling is taken down, even if Goryeo doesn't want to return Tieling to the Ming Dynasty, he still has a stick in his throat.
Zhu Qi naturally followed Zhang Yu's words and ordered the defenders of Liaoyang to march towards Tieling. Zhang Yu was worthy of being a famous general.
I don't know what kind of magic he used, but he took less than [-] Ming troops to occupy Tieling City.
Naturally, Zhang Yu also reported his tactics, which was nothing more than taking advantage of his familiarity with the Goryeo language, then disguised himself as envoys and soldiers from Goryeo, entered Tieling, and occupied the city with a small team.
Not to mention, Zhu Qi's credit book will definitely have another addition to him.
(End of this chapter)
What Li Chengxu said was swearing, if it was replaced by some people with weak willpower and muddled minds, they might really think this is a good way.
But in Zhu Qi's place, every word Li Chengxu said, that fart made no difference.
Handing over the Liaodong Peninsula, even if Beiyuan was defeated, so what?
What is the difference between that and Shijingtang selling Yanyun Sixteen States?
What's more, Da Ming didn't need the help of Gao Li to defeat Bei Yuan.
Even if Gao Li and Bei Yuan teamed up, it would only make Daming feel a little tricky.
But until the last moment, Zhu Qi will try his best to prevent Daming from fighting Goryeo and Beiyuan at the same time.
There is no need to make a [-]-[-] split into a [-]-[-] split.
Zhu Qi was not in a hurry to refute Li Chengxu immediately, but thought about it seriously, and then said:
"Your Majesty really said so?"
Li Chengxu nodded seriously, and then said in a firm tone:
"This Bei Yuan is cruel and ridiculous, and the fate of the country is not long, so it is naturally impossible for our king to continue to stand with Bei Yuan.
But our Great Tomorrow Dynasty is different, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger, and has the potential to annex the world, our king is naturally willing to follow the Heavenly Dynasty. "
Zhu Qi rolled his eyes in his heart, and really wanted to ask, how dare you want Liaodong?
Of course what Li Chengxu said was flattery, Zhu Qi knew it in his heart, so he didn't point it out.
Just nodded, looking very useful, and then said:
"Your king has always seen the situation clearly, but your king accepted Bei Yuan's canonization.
My royal father was very angry when he found out about this matter. Even if you came to tell me about this matter, I don't know how to reply you for a while.
How about this way, the envoy will stay in my Liaodong mansion for a few days, and make a decision after the king reports the matter back, how about it? "
Li Chengxu naturally knew that Zhu Yuanzhang would not agree to the matter of begging Liaodong.
But Zhu Qi, the king of Liao, did not have the right to call the shots. If he went back and asked Zhu Yuanzhang, something would probably happen.
But this is the order of his own king, and Li Chengxu has no way to violate such an order, so he can only nod and trouble His Royal Highness Liao to go back and ask.
For the next few days, Li Chengxu stayed alone in the Liao Palace, waiting for an answer.
After waiting for several days, Zhu Qiyi finally received Zhu Yuanzhang's order.
Originally thought that Zhu Yuanzhang had arranged for personnel to come to defend, but unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang did not flinch, and directly took the initiative to attack.
One copy of the imperial decree is for Zhu Qi and one copy is for the King of Korea.
The imperial decree to Zhu Qi is very simple, that is, to expel the envoys of Goryeo, and then prepare for war.
Soldiers were recruited locally in Liaoyang, and the Central Plains had also dispatched elite soldiers to Liaodong.
It is estimated that the earliest batch will arrive in Liaodong and so on within a month.
Another copy is for King Goryeo.
And this imperial decree to King Goryeo is not so polite.
First, he denounced the treachery of King Goryeo, and two years ago, I came to Daming to beg the princess, with a humble attitude.
My Emperor Ming also rewarded you with the title of King of Koryo, but now you are taking refuge in Beiyuan.
It is really shameless for me to ask Daming for Liaodong.
Don’t think about Liaodong, not only will Liaodong not give you Korea, but you also have to return Tieling to Daming!
Speaking of Tieling, it was called the Shuangcheng Governor's Mansion in the Yuan Dynasty, and Li Chenggui was born in this place.
However, Tieling was our territory in the Central Plains when it was in the Western Han Dynasty.
In the back, the weak and large northern territory of the Northern Song Dynasty was lost to the barbarians, and during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, Tieling was still under the control of Goryeo.
Zhu Yuanzhang is the emperor who wants to annex the world and unify China.
Naturally, Tieling will not continue to be under the control of Goryeo. Zhu Yuanzhang has long had plans and goals to subdue Tieling, but there has been no suitable opportunity.
And now that Gao Li is so ignorant of flattery, there is no need to talk nonsense.
After Zhu Qi saw the imperial decree, he also heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, sighing that he deserves to be the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang through the ages!
I was still worrying back and forth, and when I didn't want to go to war with Goryeo and Beiyuan, Zhu Yuanzhang had already waved his hand, and let him beat you.
This is not just a kind of domineering, but also a kind of self-confidence.
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang made such a statement, Zhu Qi became tough, so he didn't have to bother with Gao Li.
He directly took the imperial decree and handed it to Li Chengxu, and said with a straight face:
"Li Chengxu, what did the king say earlier?
Is this Liaodong something you Koryo can ask for at will?
This king has reported to the emperor. The emperor's intention is not only to let you stop thinking about Liaodong, but also to return Tieling to our Daming as soon as possible.
I know that you are just a minister, you don't have this right, you take this imperial decree to the King of Korea and tell him, it may be too late to make an apology now. "
After Zhu Qi finished speaking, he put his hands behind his back and was ready to see off the guests.
Li Chengxu was also stunned. He didn't expect the emperor of Ming Dynasty to be so stubborn, and he was about to tear his face with Gao Li.
Shouldn't the art of diplomacy be in circles with each other?
This is because Li Chengxu doesn't know much about Ming Dynasty. From the beginning of Zhu Yuanzhang to the death of Emperor Chongzhen who hanged himself on Meishan Mountain in the Ming Dynasty, for more than 200 years, every emperor, except for the name of the emperor, had no soft-hearted.
It has always been external, or stop talking nonsense, and let me do the nonsense.
The attitude of the Ming Dynasty has become very tough, and Zhu Qi will naturally follow Zhu Yuanzhang's wishes.
After Li Chengxu was expelled, he didn't feel any regrets in his heart, after all, it was within his expectation.
But when Li Chengxu was planning to go back, Zhu Qi still had a heart-to-heart talk with him.
It's not other things, just say that I and Li Chengxu are still very close, and if this Koryo dares to go to war against the Ming Dynasty, the result can be imagined.
The King of Koryo certainly won't live long. He doesn't want to see a capable person like Li Xu die in this kind of war.
Later, Zhu Qi mentioned Li Chenggui intentionally or unintentionally, and praised Li Chenggui a lot.
To put it bluntly, Li Chenggui has the appearance of a great king, and he is inferior to a mediocre person. Being a general is really inferior.
He also said that his father Zhu Yuanzhang had always told him about Li Chenggui.
It is said that this person is quite capable. If he came to be the king of Goryeo, the national power of Goryeo would definitely not be as weak as it is now.
Anyway, it was just to flatter Li Chenggui, and Zhu Qi knew about Li Chenggui's abilities.
In China, it is now under one person and above ten thousand people,
If Li Chenggui had no intention of rebelling, Zhu Qi would never believe it.
As Li Chengxu's cousin, Li Chengxu would naturally be aware of some insider hints that were already so obvious. Zhu Qi believed that Li Chengxu would definitely tell Li Chenggui about this after he returned.
In other words, to put it simply, this is equivalent to Daming giving Li Chenggui a guarantee.
If Li Chenggui can stand up and pull down the fatuous Goryeo king, Daming is willing to recognize him as the new Goryeo king.
Zhu Qi didn't believe that Li Chenggui was really not moved, but the seed was just buried, and what kind of fruit would it bear in the end, he could only wait quietly.
But the battle with Goryeo is inevitable.
Zhu Qi was also fully prepared to prepare for the battle, but a new problem came up, that is, he had no generals under his command!
Although Zhu Yuanzhang sent troops over and asked Zhu Qi to prepare for the battle, the imperial decree did not say that he would send famous generals to lead the battle.
It's not that Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to, but that he really didn't have any generals to send out.
Feng Sheng, Fu Youde and others were all confronting Bei Yuan on the northern front, while Xu Da was confronting Liang Wangna's troops on the western front.
As for Sapphire, Zhu Yuanzhang obviously didn't want to continue to use Sapphire to fight so quickly after the incident with Hu Weiyong.
As for the other second-line generals, in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, he probably felt that the level of those generals was not much higher than Zhu Qi's.
Instead of using those second-line generals, it is better to directly use his son as the leading general to fight against Goryeo's attack.
After Zhu Qi thought of this, he couldn't laugh or cry.
It seems that Zhu Yuanzhang really misunderstood his own image a lot in his heart. He is obviously a prince who fishes in troubled waters.
Unexpectedly, in everyone's eyes, he had unknowingly become His Royal Highness King Liao who was capable of conquering and fighting.
However, although those famous generals were not sent over, some unfamous generals still came.
For example, General Ma Yun, who has cooperated with Zhu Qi before and fought side by side, and is now in command of the Daming Navy.
Zhu Yuanzhang obviously also knew that the navy would be indispensable in the battle with Goryeo, so he sent Ma Yun to support Zhu Qi.
This is definitely great news for Zhu Qi. If there is Ma Yun, then the Liaohe section of the northern line can be handed over to Ma Yun for defense.
Ma Yun is a well-known defender.
In history, Jack Ma was famous for guarding Liaodong.
Beiyuan's many attacks were thwarted by Ma Yun, but now he just needs to follow history and let Ma Yun continue to defend Liaodong.
Turn around and deal with Gao Li by yourself, isn't that all right?
Of course, it would be unrealistic for Zhu Qi to lead troops to fight Goryeo by himself. After all, Zhu Qi also had a full understanding of his abilities.
However, Zhu Qi still has a useful general on hand, and that is Zhang Yu.
Needless to say Zhang Yu's ability, he was sent to the Liaohe defense line, and in just a few days he had already gained a firm foothold, and even won a battle.
It may seem a bit too bold in the eyes of other generals to use Zhang Yu to lead troops to attack Goryeo.
After all, he didn't have a comprehensive understanding of Zhang Yu's ability, but Zhu Qi had seen history in his heart.
Naturally, he understood Zhang Yu's ability, which was not comparable to that of ordinary generals, at least a general of Feng Sheng and Fu Youde's level.
It can be said that Zhu Di was able to seize the throne and win the battle of Jingnan, thanks to Zhang Yu's contribution.
If the troops are dispatched in this way, it can be guaranteed that there will be no problems with the defense lines in the north and east.
And the east can even break through and take the initiative to touch Goryeo.
Of course, the best situation is that Li Chenggui can follow the development of history and directly mutiny back to the King of Korea.
Then Zhu Qi is sure that Zhu Yuanzhang will definitely give Li Chenggui the title of North Korea.
Then follow the historical process to develop friendly relations with North Korea.
It's just that you have to be wary of Li Chenggui, after all, Li Chenggui in history didn't wholeheartedly join the Ming Dynasty.
Li Chenggui is a typical two-faced faction, bowing to the Ming Dynasty diplomatically, but creating military conflicts in a mediocre manner in the military.
The reason was that Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to recover the entire Tieling at that time, and Tieling's words included the territory east of the Yalu River.
However, at that time the territory east of the Yalu River was already under the control of North Korea.
So such behavior was resisted by Li Chenggui.
He didn't dare to say it publicly, but he kept making small moves in private, sending troops to drive away the Ming army, etc., was also a common occurrence.
This also made Zhu Yuanzhang very angry. In his later years, he even planned to send generals to attack North Korea to teach Li Chenggui a lesson.
But within a few years, Zhu Yuanzhang died of illness.
Then came the Battle of Jingnan, and the complete recovery of Tieling to attack North Korea has been put on hold.
Later, for strategic reasons, the Ming Dynasty mainly used the policy in the north to deal with many tribes in the Oirats and grasslands.
With Korea, it is based on the principle of mutual alliance, and the relationship has become much better, and the territory east of the Yalu River has not been asked more.
But now, the Ming Dynasty is bound to win the entire Tieling territory.
And the dead-brained king of Koryo naturally wouldn't give in, and in history he also sent troops to take the initiative to attack.
The king of Koryo will definitely let Li Chenggui send troops to attack the dynasty, so Zhu Qi has to make plans early.
Directly let Ma Yunyi go to Liaohe to take over Zhang Yu's position, and then let Zhang Yu return to Liaoyang to call for recruit training.
After this operation, the first batch of reinforcements from Shandong had arrived in Liaodong, and Zhu Qi also handed over these reinforcements and recruits to Li Jinglong for training.
Although Li Jinglong's actual combat level is not very good, his theoretical knowledge and military training level are still quite high.
Especially the level of military training is the highest among the young generals Zhu Qi met.
The recruits who have been trained, not to mention other combat capabilities, have higher political awareness than each other.
Going forward while shouting the slogan, Zhu Qi thought he was back in the modern military training.
One of the attitudes that these have always adhered to is that although the army pays attention to individual combat capabilities.
But in ancient times, under such a large square combat environment, the collective consciousness and willpower of the army were more important than individual combat capabilities.
Even if you have infinite strength as a single soldier, you cannot defeat a group of soldiers at all.
And when a group of soldiers fights against a group of soldiers, it depends on which side has stronger execution ability, endurance and fighting will.
This is also why the elite troops in ancient times were measured by war damage and escape.
The general army loses about 10% to 20% in battle, and the morale is about to collapse.
And when the battle damage of elite troops reaches 50%, they can still continue to fight. This is already the king's division in ancient times.
As for how much the Ming army trained according to Zhu Qi's method can still be strong, it is not clear.
After all, during the Hongwu period, the army of the Ming Dynasty was really invincible.
Up to now, Zhu Qi has not been defeated in a battle. As for whether he will lose in the future, Zhu Qi thinks that the possibility is not very high.
After all, even if the year of Hongwu has passed, it is assumed that Zhu Di came to power in the future.
Not to mention the martial arts Changlong of the Ming Dynasty, fighting the nomads in the north, it was really a rush.
Anyway, it will be over as soon as Arimori does it.
The military force here is constantly preparing, and the supplies are also transported by sea towards the Liaodong Peninsula.
Ever since Zhu Qi defeated Beiyuan's fleet, an invincible Ming Dynasty navy escorted the Ming Dynasty, connecting the water routes of Liaodong, and continuously transporting supplies.
Zhu Yuanzhang obviously also realized the importance of water and land, so when Zhu Qi wanted to build a new warship in Liaodong, Zhu Yuanzhang also fully supported it.
After all, after the blessing of the related theory now, there must be more and more money in the Ming Dynasty. After Zhu Yuanzhang has money in his hands, he will naturally have a lot of confidence in doing anything.
Just as the Ming Dynasty was making intensive preparations to deal with the war in Goryeo.
Wang Baobao of the Northern Yuan Dynasty also received the news that the Korean envoys were expelled immediately.
It was the first time that Wang Baobao was so happy, and his strategy seemed to be completely successful.
But for Bei Yuan, this is just an opportunity for a turning point. Whether he can seize this opportunity, Wang Baobao can only see the next development of the situation.
But Beiyuan has also started to mobilize and is ready for battle. If Goryeo sends troops to attack the Ming Dynasty, Beiyuan will attack the Ming Dynasty immediately.
But Wang Baobao ignored one person, that is Zhu Qi who had read history books.
Unlike Zhu Qi, Wang Baobao knew what would happen in Korea. How could he have predicted that Li Chenggui was about to mutiny and seize power!
Just as Zhu Qi imagined, Li Chenggui in Koryo has now become a subordinate of one person and a superior of ten thousand people.
Although it is not the kind that directly empties the King of Korea on the surface.
But Li Chenggui's power has also skyrocketed unprecedentedly in Korea.
Most of the officials in the court are looking forward to Li Chenggui.
In fact, Li Chenggui has long wanted to replace the king of Koryo as the king himself, but he has never caught a good opportunity, and the domestic situation in Korea is not covered by himself.
In addition to the King of Korea and Li Chenggui, there is another No. [-] figure in Korea, and he is Cui Ying.
This Cui Ying is also a famous general of Goryeo, the fifth grandson of Cui Weiqing, the prime minister of the Goryeo Dynasty, and his father corrected Cui Yuanzhi for Sixian.
I won't say much about the gentleman, anyway, I know that this Cui Ying has made great military exploits, not only won the battle against the Japanese pirates, but also judged the rebellion in Koryo many times, and she is also loyal to the King of Koryo.
This Cui Ying's status is similar to that of Huo Guang who assisted Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty during the Han Dynasty.
As for Li Chenggui, his father was a general who came from Beiyuan.
By the time Li Chenggui was able to achieve such a high position in only two generations, it was also thanks to the family alliance with Cui Ying.
It can be said that without Cui Ying's help, Li Chenggui's family would never have occupied the core position of Goryeo so quickly.
Although Li Chenggui's success is due to Cui Ying's help, but at this stage, if he wants to take a step forward, Cui Ying is still standing in front of him.
Cui Ying is a firm king's party, and she will definitely not let Li Chenggui usurp power and become the new King of Goryeo.
So Li Chenggui knew very well that if he wanted to gain power, he had to suppress Cui Ying as well.
As for how to suppress, Li Chenggui actually did not have a detailed plan.
However, when his cousin Li Chengxu came back with the imperial decree of the Ming Dynasty, Li Chenggui seemed to see a great opportunity.
The Ming Dynasty's reprimand of Goryeo naturally caused an uproar in the Goryeo court.
At this time, the alliance formed by Cui Ying and Li Chenggui has firmly controlled the political arena in Korea, with Cui Ying as the leader and the hardliners as the leader.
And Goryeo has just completed the anti-Yuan reform, and has gotten rid of the control of Bei Yuan in various aspects, and its self-confidence is unprecedentedly inflated.
They didn't even pay attention to the rise of the Central Plains Empire, Ming Dynasty, and Cui Ying directly proposed the strategy of occupying Liaodong to the king.
This is why the current King of Koryo insists on asking the Ming Dynasty for Liaodong.
But Cui Ying's strategy is obviously too radical, and now it has already received a fierce reaction from the Ming Dynasty.
In the court of Goryeo, it is inevitable that some ministers feel afraid, and hope that the king of Goryeo can stop, apologize to the Ming Dynasty and admit his mistakes.
Then this Cui Ying is a well-known military commander, how could she allow this kind of thing to happen in China?
In Cui Ying's view, the whole world belongs to them, and it can be said that they have perfectly inherited the tradition of Bangzi.
So after Cui Ying barked like a dog in the court hall, the courtiers and officials of Goryeo also took stimulants like Cui Ying, and they all clamored to attack Daming.
And the King of Koryo, who saw the scene in front of him, also slapped his chair and stood up, his whole body was disorganized.
If he didn't know the result behind this guy, he would have thought that he was going to rule the world soon, and the male protagonists in TV dramas probably wouldn't dare to act like him.
He didn't say much, and immediately ordered Li Chenggui to lead the army to attack and attack Daming to occupy the entire Liaodong.
Let Cui Ying write a letter to Beiyuan, asking Beiyuan to cooperate with Goryeo's military operations and put pressure on Daming.
Good guy, he bowed his head to Bei Yuan before, but now he has already asked Bei Yuan to cooperate with his actions.
I have to say that as long as this stick gets a little bit cheap, it will start to swell immediately. It has been like this since ancient times, and there is nothing wrong with it.
It can be said that Goryeo has gone crazy from top to bottom. Li Chenggui saw it in his eyes and knew that such a King of Goryeo was a good time for him to strike.
At this time, normal courtiers should persuade King Goryeo to calm down.
But Li Chenggui's goal is the chair under the King of Korea's ass, so naturally he will not persuade the King of Korea to calm down.
Like other ministers, he boasted of King Gaoli's great achievements and helped King Gaoli look forward to an infinitely bright future.
After getting Liaodong, he went south to the Central Plains and swept the whole world, becoming the co-lord of the Chinese Empire, and so on.
Anyway, after one operation, Li Chenggui successfully obtained the military power of Goryeo.
Then what I thought about in my heart was not how to master the soldiers and horses to defeat the Ming Dynasty's army, but when and when to launch a mutiny to go back to control the government and establish myself as king.
These three parties all have their own ideas, Bei Yuan's side is ready to move, and Li Chenggui's side is sure to win.
He has already sent his cousin Li Chengxu to Liaodong to find the King of Liao, discussing an alliance with each other, and then going to Korea!
Ever since, in August of the 11th year of Hongwu.
Under the leadership of Li Chenggui, the Goryeo army marched mightily towards the Yalu River.
He vowed to cross the Yalu River and attack Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty, and Wang Baobao in the Northern Yuan Dynasty also ordered the Yuan Dynasty troops on the northern front to attack across the board.
The only goal is to hold back the Yuan Dynasty's army on the northern defense line, so that it has no time to look east.
As long as Goryeo and Ming's armies fight, the more brutal the better, Wang Baobao will have more chances.
However, Wang Baobao hadn't been happy for a long time before he got a piece of unexpected news.
That is, before Li Chenggui's army reached the Yalu River, a mutiny had already occurred, and they were about to return to the Koryo King City.
As for what to do when you go back, of course it goes without saying.
Li Chenggui's control of the Goryeo court is already a certainty.
But apart from that, there was another thing that Wang Baobao of Northern Yuan, Li Chenggui of Goryeo, and other courtiers of Goryeo didn't expect at all.
That is, the army of the Ming Dynasty was even faster than Li Chenggui.
Originally, Li Chenggui planned to cross the Yalu River, and then wrote a letter back to the King of Korea when he was on Weihua Island, saying that the morale of his army was low, and he asked to return.
At this time, King Gaoli will definitely refuse, and Li Chenggui can logically set off the statement that King Gaoli does not care about their life and death in the hearts of the soldiers.
Then it is logical to return to Korea to seize power.
Unexpectedly, Li Chenggui, with his soldiers and horses, had just crossed the Datong River and was about to move towards the Yalu River.
But they saw that in Tieling City, an important stronghold on the east side of the Yalu River, the flag that originally belonged to Koryo had been lowered, and the flag of the Ming Dynasty was flying.
The people Li Chenggui saw were dumbfounded. They never expected that the Ming Dynasty would occupy Tieling City.
When did it happen, why is there no news at all?
Could it be that His Royal Highness King Liao first sent troops to help him?
Li Chenggui thought about this in his heart, and then hurriedly asked people to go to the city to inquire about the situation. As soon as the Ming army in the city saw Tieling City coming, the Goryeo soldiers were not too wordy, and directly shouted at them. :
"What are you doing? Can't you see the flag of the Ming Dynasty hanging here?"
Those Goryeo soldiers also looked confused, and then someone who could speak Chinese replied:
"We came here on the orders of the king. This Tielingchen belonged to us in Korea before. Why is your Ming Dynasty occupying it now? Please quit quickly!"
Then the Ming Dynasty has already hung its flag in the city, so it is still possible to withdraw and give up the city to you?
The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty naturally didn't talk too much, and ignored these Korean soldiers, and these Korean soldiers had no choice but to go back and report.
Li Chenggui was thinking about what was going on, when he received a letter from His Royal Highness Liao Wang.
Zhu Qi had already expected that it must be Li Chenggui.
And I know that Li Chenggui doesn't think about Liaodong at all in his heart, but he wants to know that he wants to go back to occupy the throne of Korea, so at this time, it is natural to have an advantage and not take advantage of the bastard!
I have occupied this Tieling City, and you, Li Chenggui, dare to come and fight with our Ming Dynasty and fail.
If you come to fight with our Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty will not be afraid of you at all, even your Li Chenggui's throne will definitely be gone.
Li Chenggui naturally understood this truth, Zhu Qi just seized this opportunity, Li Chenggui did not dare to do anything impulsive.
Of course, I still want to give him face, so I wrote a letter to Li Chenggui.
It didn't mean that the dynasty wanted to occupy Tielingcheng, but that he brought the Ming army here because he wanted to cooperate with Li Chenggui. If something went wrong, the Ming army could also help Li Chenggui take the Koryo royal city.
Of course, Zhu Qi also knew that Li Chenggui would never lead the Ming army to the Koryo royal city.
But now it is an established fact that the Ming Dynasty occupied Tieling City, even if Li Chenggui had an opinion, he couldn't say it.
Li Chenggui didn't know what the Ming Dynasty and Liao Wang Zhu Qi were thinking about.
But he can't say, without the support of the Ming Dynasty, whether he can succeed in the throne of Koryo is another matter.
As for Tieling City, it can only be managed later.
Li Chenggui really gritted his teeth, and he could only swallow it in his stomach. He ordered his subordinates to lead the army and headed towards Wangcheng.
And Zhu Qi's plan to lead the Ming army to occupy Tieling City was not thought of by Zhu Qi, but by Zhang Yu.
According to Zhang Yu, if Daming wants to regain Tieling now, the most important thing is to cross the Yalu River.
Because there is a big river here, if you don't go to the other side of the river, it's easy to be turned into a fact that Goryeo will rule the river.
After all, there are no planes or ships these days. It is not easy to cross a big river.
Goryeo, if the river is defended, it is really difficult for the Ming Dynasty to attack.
After crossing the river, the best place to occupy is Tieling. Tieling City is backed by the Yalu River, and it is also the core city of Tieling.
If Tieling is taken down, even if Goryeo doesn't want to return Tieling to the Ming Dynasty, he still has a stick in his throat.
Zhu Qi naturally followed Zhang Yu's words and ordered the defenders of Liaoyang to march towards Tieling. Zhang Yu was worthy of being a famous general.
I don't know what kind of magic he used, but he took less than [-] Ming troops to occupy Tieling City.
Naturally, Zhang Yu also reported his tactics, which was nothing more than taking advantage of his familiarity with the Goryeo language, then disguised himself as envoys and soldiers from Goryeo, entered Tieling, and occupied the city with a small team.
Not to mention, Zhu Qi's credit book will definitely have another addition to him.
