Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 855 The Aftermath of the Goryeo Incident (Nine Chapters)

"These are the people we captured at the North City Gate before. They should be the king of Koryo and the ministers of the court. At that time, they were trying to escape to Pyongyang City in the north. Fortunately, we intercepted them." A Beiyang Fleet The soldiers escorted dozens of people over.

Dozens of Koreans who were captured were dressed in costumes similar to those of Ming Dynasty, with worried expressions on their faces.When one of them saw Li Yan, his face turned livid.

"Father!" Li Yan cried out.

"I don't have a rebellious son like you!" Li Zhen said with a straight face.

In his opinion, Li Yan's collusion with the Kyushu Army to usurp the throne is an unforgivable crime!

"My son is purely out of helplessness. The father listened to the slander and kept his own way. I am afraid that in less than 30 years, our Koryo country will be poor and weak." Li Yan said anxiously.

"Do you think you can tell my father what to do after you have learned those new things? Do you want you to teach me a lesson after working so hard for my father for so many years?" Li Yu sneered.

"I..." Li Yan wanted to explain something, but Zheng Zhilong put a hand on his shoulder.

"It's useless to talk too much. You go to see your mother and appease the officials. They will be escorted to Dongjiang Town Prison as prisoners." Zheng Zhilong said.

Li Xun was a little disappointed, he knew that being forced to come to this point, the father and son had turned against each other, and there was no turning back in the relationship between them.

"What's wrong with me, why should I be treated as a criminal!" Li Zhen cried unwillingly.

"It is your fault that I attacked the capital with thirteen ships, and the whole country waited and watched without timely reinforcements," Zheng Zhilong said.

The king Li Ji was arrested, and a group of civil servants were arrested. Many forces that hindered Li Ji were uprooted by Zheng Zhilong, which shocked the whole country of Korea.All eyes are on Seoul, which is located in the central part of Koryo, and the newly appointed king Li Yi.If Li Yi can handle the next situation well, he can form an effective control over Koryo, otherwise it will lead to the disintegration of Koryo.Li Yan had to win over people's hearts during this period of excessive power. After all, no one would have thought that Li Xuan could suddenly change from the son of the king of Korea to His Majesty the king. He came to rule Seoul too suddenly.And all this was only caused by a military order from the commander of the Kyushu Army.

"General Zheng, please release my father." Seeing that her father was also captured by Zheng Zhilong, Jiang came to plead with Zheng Zhilong.

"As long as the new king has an order, other than Li Zhen, other people can do whatever they want." Zheng Zhilong said it doesn't matter.

Chu Yun's order was to capture Li Xie, enter Dongjiang Town Prison, and then support Li Xie to become the new king of the Koryo Kingdom. The other civil servants, even though they were in charge of the wind and rain in the Koryo Kingdom, couldn't get into Chu Yun's eyes at all, and there was no extra favor for them. arrange.

This time, the Beiyang Fleet had already forcibly broken through Seoul before it came out in full force.Then the mess will be handed over to Li Yan and the reformers, who will build a new small court according to their own ideas.

"I will lead the fleet to station near Seoul for a period of time to suppress the forces that dare to resist you. To complete the change of power in a relatively smooth way, you need to work hard on your own. I don't want Korea to rebel. It’s not enough to help you suppress the rebellion everywhere.” Zheng Zhilong said to Li Yan, “When you successfully grasp the hearts of the people, you will be able to do what you wanted to do before.”

"Thank you, General Zheng. I don't know how to repay this kindness." Seeing that Zheng Zhilong not only saved himself, but also pushed himself to a position where he could display his ambitions, although the process was not very good, he was still very grateful to Zheng Zhilong. .

"I'm just following orders. I hope you will not be indecisive, Li Yan. Change requires perseverance." Zheng Zhilong said.

To be able to address a king by name, perhaps only the high-level officials of the Kyushu Army can do it.

"When the situation stabilizes, I will cooperate with my concubine to visit the military leader in the capital." Li Yan knew that Chu Yun was behind Zheng Zhilong, and no matter what, it was necessary to accept Chu Yun's teachings.

"I think the location of Ganghwa Island is very good. I will lead the Beiyang Fleet to station on Ganghwa Island later. If there is any change in Seoul, I will immediately lead the fleet to come to support." Zheng Zhilong said.

"Okay, I will arrange for someone to supply food for you." Li Yan said.

When he became the king of Koryo, he realized that this king was not easy to be. Although the civil servants in the court were hit by the arrest of a large number of literati, their big family still had huge influence, and the subsequent changes would have to be done. Touching on their interests again, especially with land-related changes.

"The military lord also asked me to tell you that the reform should be done slowly, and you should not be greedy." Zheng Zhilong said to Li Yan again.

"I will remember the teachings of the military master." Li Yan nodded.

When Zheng Zhilong left, he glanced at Jin Zidian again.Because this person is right with Li Yan, he may suddenly become a figure under one person and above ten thousand people in Korea.

Jin Zidian returned Zheng Zhilong's look meaningfully.

The Beiyang Fleet attacked Jianghua Island and Seoul one after another with ten warships and three supply ships. It suffered very little loss, which was almost a miracle.Although the smaller casualties are because many Korean troops maintained a wait-and-see attitude in this war that was more like a civil war...

The old king Li Ji and some civil officials who had serious crony disputes were escorted to the prison in Dongjiang Town.

The Beiyang Fleet is temporarily divided into two parts, one part is stationed in Yokohama Port and the other part is stationed in Jianghua Island.

After Chu Yun received Zheng Zhilong's reward, he felt that things went too smoothly.

After arranging Zheng Zhilong to be in charge of this matter, he thought that the Beiyang Fleet would not have enough troops after it landed, so he planned to dispatch a naval formation from the Zhili Fleet and two infantry brigades from the Yangtai First Corps to enter Korea for help. In preparing troops, Zheng Zhilong had already won.

"The relaxation of military equipment in Korea is like this. When Nelson finishes laying the cables, let him lead a formation to Dongying Town. After Zheng Zhilong leaves Dongying, I don't know how active the shogunate will be." Chu Yun said to Goryeo didn't pay much attention to things here.

It was his order to make Li Yi the king of Goryeo.Koryo country is far less powerful than Dongying country. Every time Dongying country lands on the Koryo Peninsula, it can basically push Koryo flat.This time Li Yan was pushed to the throne, firstly because of personal friendship, and secondly because Chu Yun wanted to test the depth of the water in Korea, let Li Xuan be the vanguard of change, no matter what kind of setbacks he encountered, Chu Yun could at least use Being an outsider helped him deal with the aftermath.
