Zhu Quan's military strength was indeed very strong.

It only took a single order to force Li Bu and others into a desperate situation. Under his order, Li Bu, who was fleeing, was completely surrounded. The few Goryeo soldiers left around him were now trembling in fear. Those who were less courageous simply raised their hands, dropped their weapons and surrendered.

Li Bu and Pu Chang were trapped by Zhu Quan. Their legs were shaking and they were very panicked. When they saw the black muzzles of the Ming soldiers' guns, they almost couldn't stand.

"Your Highness, Li Chen and the others are now completely under control."

Lu Zhongde said loudly.

Zhu Quan heard this and smiled coldly, "A barbarian leader dares to call himself emperor. He is courting death. Someone bring him here. I want to see how capable this man is!"

When Lu Zhongde heard this, he went over to catch the man himself.

When Li Chen saw that someone was trying to capture him, he immediately started shouting and making a fuss, asking the soldiers around him to save him.

However, those personal soldiers could hardly protect themselves, and no one dared to save Li Bu, unless they were tired of living and wanted to die. But no one wanted to ask for death on their own initiative. The fact that they did not kneel down and kowtow was already a sign of backbone.

"come over!"

Lu Zhongde roared and dragged the man over.

Li Bu had no choice but to let Lu Zhongde control him. When Park Chang saw this, he could only mourn for Li Bu in his heart.

"Your Highness, we have arrived."

Lu Zhongde ordered his men to throw Li Bo down.

Zhu Quan had now gotten off his horse and had a chair brought over. He was sitting on the chair with his legs crossed, looking down at Li Chen.

Li Yu was very stubborn and wanted to stand up, but when he met Zhu Quan's eyes, they were so cold that he trembled. Then, the invisible pressure came down on him, and his whole body trembled and he could no longer stand up.

He knelt on the ground in fear.

This is just a vassal king of the Ming Dynasty. Li Chen was thinking, how terrible it would be if he were to see the emperor of the Ming Dynasty?
I can’t even imagine how scary it could be.

"Prince Ning...Your Highness!"

Li Chen had no choice but to bow.

Zhu Quan looked at this fellow and sneered, "You are a barbarian, yet you dare to call yourself an emperor. I thought you were very capable, but I didn't expect that you are just like this."

"I...I don't dare!"

Before meeting Zhu Quan, Li Chen was still very confident and did not take the entire Ming Dynasty seriously. Now, he was overwhelmed by Zhu Quan's momentum and couldn't even stand up straight. He gave in very quickly and became a coward, not even daring to speak too loudly.

The Koreans are like this, highly conceited and highly cowardly. In any case, not many of them are normal people.

"Don't you dare?"

Zhu Quan sneered and looked at Lu Zhongde.

Lu Zhongde understood what he meant. Zhu Quan must have something to say to Li Chen. He waved his hand and drove away the people around him, asking them to stand five meters away with guns for protection.

When Li Chen saw this, he was puzzled. He didn't understand why this vassal king of the Ming Dynasty wanted to do something to him.

Zhu Quan faced Li Chen like this without any worries. He could beat ten guys like Li Chen!

Li Yu was indeed very cowardly and dared not do anything.

"Do you still want to live?"

Zhu Quan asked with a sneer.

"Your Highness...can you let me live?"

Li Chen had already prepared himself for death, and was shaking all over at the thought of dying soon. But when he was suddenly told that he could live, he stopped shaking instantly and looked at Zhu Quan with surprise on his face.

If he had a chance to survive, he would definitely want to live and definitely not want to die. However, is there really still a chance?

"Of course I can let you live, but you must die in name. Find someone similar to you to serve as your corpse and let me take it back." Zhu Quan said.

"Yes, of course!"

Li Yu saw that Zhu Quan seemed to be serious about letting him live, so he nodded in agreement. Not to mention finding one person who was similar, even if he had to find ten, he would try his best to find them.

"Don't be impatient."

Zhu Quan asked again: "Don't you want to know why I let you live?"

Li Yu was so excited to hear that he could survive that he forgot to ask why. He could only respond, "Why?"

"I want you to obey my orders completely."

Zhu Quan said with a cold look in his eyes: "From now on, you and your people will come back with me. I will give you food and firearms, train you well, and use you for my benefit in the future. What do you think?"

Regarding the previous military pay issue, Zhu Quan was exposed for keeping private soldiers, and the consequences were quite serious.

In fact, not only did he have to spit out the military pay he had swallowed, but he also didn't dare to take any of his private soldiers. He voluntarily handed them over, mainly because he was afraid that Zhu Yuanzhang would kill his own relatives for the sake of justice.

Next, he could not raise private soldiers openly, but had to do it secretly, and the recruitment of soldiers could not be too obvious. But how could he train private soldiers in case they rebelled against Zhu Xuan in the future?

Li Bu seemed to have come to his doorstep. Those Goryeo soldiers were a little timid, but he was confident that he could train them.

He planned to accept all of these people.

"Father has arranged a good job for me!"

Zhu Quan was thinking.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang gave him the task of attacking Goryeo in order to atone for his sins. He felt somewhat guilty for going to such lengths for his rebellion.

But it's just a little bit of guilt.

Thinking about his future and the possibility that Zhu Xuan might do something bad to him, he had long forgotten all the guilt.

What I want to do now is to resist.

He wanted to train his own military force to rebel against that damn illegitimate son Zhu Xuan.

Li Chen was also stunned for a while after listening to Zhu Quan's words.

He never expected that Zhu Quan would do this to him. However, as a prince of the Li Dynasty, Li Bu had some knowledge of the power struggles in the palace. Thinking deeply about it, it was not difficult to find that Zhu Quan must be trying to do something improper in the Ming Dynasty by doing this.

For example, rebellion!

"The vassal king of the Ming Dynasty also wants to rebel?"

This idea first appeared in Li Wei's mind.

Only then did he realize that the Ming Dynasty was not as peaceful as he had thought, and there were actually many people with many ideas.

"This is a bit interesting!"

Li Yu was basically certain that he could still survive, so he could rest assured. He lowered his head and asked, "Excuse me, Your Highness, what do you want me to do?"

As long as he can survive, he will do anything.

Zhu Quan understood immediately that the other party had guessed his thoughts. He smiled and said, "What I ask you to do is actually very simple. First, hand over all your soldiers to me and let me arrange and train them."

"and then?"

Li Chen knew that if there was a first, there would definitely be a second.

"Then, you help me with my business."

Zhu Quan said.

"Business?"

Li Chen was a little confused after listening to this.

He actually asked me to do business, but I didn't know how to do business. For a moment, I didn't know whether I should agree.

However, if I don't agree, I will die, so I must agree. (End of this chapter)
