Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

Chapter 31
"Baga, how is it possible??" Koji Nakata scolded angrily.

"Captain, I saw it with my own eyes. The Qing army is less than a hundred kilometers away from here. The Inoue Brigade may have been wiped out by the Qing army!" said a scout.

"Leader, there is a call from our country." A communications soldier said.

"Read." Koji Nakata suppressed his anger.

"Order Nakata's troops to return home immediately. Now is not the time to start a war with the Qing Dynasty. According to the imperial intelligence: the Qing Dynasty has sent more than 1 troops to land, escorted by four gunboats. If we don't retreat, the sea routes will be blocked."

Koji Nakata has never suffered such a loss, half of the alliance was wiped out in the blink of an eye.There is not even a single one alive, but asking his remaining 2000 people to fight against the Qing's 1 troops is tantamount to courting death.Nakata squinted his angry eyes and paused for a few seconds.The order to retreat was issued decisively!
There was chaos in the Korean royal palace, and the news of the withdrawal of the people spread immediately.

Lord Li Ying pulled his defense general Cui Chenghao, and said in pain: "People are really nothing. They were supposed to help me resist the Qing army. The Qing army just came and ran faster than anyone else. How can this be? Is that good?"

Cui Chenghao thought for a moment and said calmly: "Originally, the Qing Dynasty only needed a North Korea that surrendered to them, but now King Xiaoluo of North Korea is not famous. And you have already ascended the throne and become king, as long as the king shows an attitude of being willing to submit to the Qing Dynasty. I believe that the Qing Dynasty is still can support you."

Li Ying's eyes lit up, as if he had found his backbone.The whole person has come to the spirit, yes!After all, it is a small country, how can it be compared with the big country of the Celestial Dynasty.As long as the Qing Dynasty does not make excessive demands, there is nothing wrong with surrendering to him.

"That's right, in that case, hurry up and meet the Qing army." Li Ying ordered.

Dong Liang came all the way with the brigade but did not encounter any decent resistance. At the beginning, there were sporadic resistance from North Korean rebels.The closer it is to Seoul, the quieter it is.When I arrived at the gate of Seoul, I saw Li Ying personally leading the guard of honor to welcome his troops into the city.What kind of medicine is this sold in the gourd?
"General, what does this mean? There were North Korean rebels harassing us along the way, and now the door is open to welcome us. Are we playing tricks together with others?" Mao Weimin asked.

"The soldiers are approaching the city, what else can they do? Leave five battalions to garrison outside the city, and the rest will follow me into the city." Dong Liang ordered.

"twitter."

"Oh, the general has worked hard all the way." Li Ying said flatteringly to Dong Liang.

"Lord Dayuan, this general is following the emperor's order to resolve the civil strife in North Korea. I have seen it all along the way. The rebels are everywhere, and you dare to use force against my army." Dong Liang said.

Li Ying looked embarrassed and looked at Cui Chenghao.Cui Chenghao hurriedly said: "What the general said is true, the king of Joseon disappeared suddenly. The rebel army was formed by people and has nothing to do with us. We are only acting as the king of Joseon temporarily. When the king is found, we will return to him gone."

"Oh? I heard that the King of Joseon has been killed. Lord Daewon is the uncle of the King of Joseon, so why don't you inherit the throne. However, my Qing Emperor has a decree, and people have caused troubles in North Korea one after another recently. I have to guard against it. I hope that Lord Daewon will come closer. Give me the Qing army to garrison Jeju Island." Dong Liang said seriously.

Li Ying thought in his mind that he conspired with others just to ascend the throne, now that his dream has come true.What is a mere island?Besides, there are Qing troops stationed in North Korea, so they are not afraid of being harassed again.At this time, Cui Chenghao also nodded to himself repeatedly.Immediately replied: "It's still the emperor's thoughtfulness. The mere island is used by the general's garrison troops."

"Okay, then tomorrow, please invite Wang Shang to move to the military camp outside the city to sign the contract. The emperor's edict will also be handed over to the king tomorrow." Dong Liang still looked serious.

"Okay, okay, come here. Send the general to rest." Li Ying's face was full of joy.There is no tension and anxiety when the Qing army approached the city at all.

At noon tomorrow, I finally saw Li Ying and a few of his own soldiers entering the camp of the Qing army in high spirits.

When Dong Liang saw him, he stepped forward to greet him with a smile, and the two exchanged a few pleasantries after facing each other.Li Ying, who thought he was about to ascend the throne, was a little more arrogant.

Dong Liang welcomed Li Ying and his soldiers into the barracks, but Li Ying's guards never expected that they would enter the gate of hell!All of them were captured by the Qing army ambushing in the tent when they were still in high spirits, and those who resisted a little were immediately beheaded.

Only then did Li Ying suddenly realize that the Qing Dynasty was still unwilling to let him go.Damn Cui Chenghao, you killed me.

Immediately, Dong Liang ordered the Qing army to enter the city in four directions to kill Li Ying's rebels and Cui Chenghao and others.These rebels were unprepared, and Cui Chenghao was even more busy with the subsequent enthronement ceremony, and he didn't know what happened until he died!In just one afternoon, the rebels were all wiped out.

After a few days, Fan Tianhao personally escorted the King of Joseon back to Seoul, and escorted Li Ying back to the country, waiting for the emperor to deal with him.However, Jeju Island was finally left to the Qing army as a place to garrison.

The good news was sent to the capital, and Guan Xuqing was quite satisfied after reading it.Immediately ordered that the two battalions of Wu Ping's troops continue to garrison Seoul.Help the King of Joseon to rebuild his army.As for Jeju Island, the four battalions left by Dong Liang's department are contained.

It is not a day or two to spy on North Korea, but Guan Xuqing knows that now is not the time to start a war with others.The important thing now is still there. The French have already begun to gather in Cambodia. I believe that they will attack China after October, just like in history.

After Dong Liang left behind four battalions, he returned home immediately.

In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, in the early days of the dynasty, Guan Xuqing responded to the increase of troops to North Korea.Dong Liang's performance was quite satisfactory, although it was only an encounter and two ambushes.However, the fighting power shown by the new army convinced the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.The several princes and ministers who raised objections to the disarmament and reorganization of the army also fell silent.

Guan Xuqing gave corresponding rewards to those who made meritorious deeds, and especially promoted Liu San who won the first battle.Now he has become the commander of the fourth battalion of Jeju Island.
