Chapter 633 Despair to Hope
At the temporary garrison of the Tiger and Leopard Army in Pyongyang, Zhao Yun was in deep thought with a solemn face.
As for the table in front of Zhao Yun, Wei Zheng asked to let the remnants of the Korean army be released and forced them to negotiate and turn North Korea into a Tiger and Leopard Army colony.
However, in the vast mountains around Pyongyang, not to mention 20,000 people, even 200,000 to 300,000, as long as he is willing to hide, you will never find it.
Besides, Ren Zu still has 20,000 troops, and the North Korean people support him in his Li Dynasty. Zhao Yun didn't know if he would accept such strict demands and would be willing to be the puppet king of the Tiger and Leopard Army to control North Korea.
Of course, at this moment, the most important question before Zhao Yun was how to find Ren Zu, so that Ren Zu knew that we did not intend to destroy North Korea, but wanted to negotiate with him.
At this moment, the commander of the 7th Division on the side seemed to have thought of something?
His eyes lit up and said, "Captain, we can't find the movement of the North Korean army in the vast mountains... But if we can't find it, it doesn't mean that others can't find it..."
"We captured thousands of Koreans in Pyongyang City. These people are all North Korean ministers and famous figures in North Korea. Of course, among them, there are soldiers with the same identity as us."
"Since they are all North Korean soldiers, they must be familiar with the Korean army and the vast mountains around Pyongyang City. If they are asked to find them, they will definitely find the specific location of the North Korean army and send the news we want to negotiate to Ren Zu."
So dozens of Korean soldiers and a Korean minister left Pyongyang City with letters under the order of Zhao Yun.
In the eyes of these dozens of North Koreans, even if this is a conspiracy of the Tiger and Leopard Army, they can easily resolve it.
Because, as long as you enter the vast mountains, even if the Tiger and Leopard Army wants to track itself and find the position of the main army, you can easily get rid of them.
So, dozens of people wandered around the vast mountains for two days and confirmed that no one was following them. They never hesitated anymore. They headed straight into the mountains and could hide the location of tens of thousands of troops.
In the face of the two choices of hunger and the destruction of the entire army, the Korean King Ren Zu resolutely chose to go hungry.
In his eyes, there is a saying in the Ming Dynasty that suits him very well. That is: I will stay with the green mountains, and I will not be afraid of burning without materials. As long as I am still alive, North Korea will still have hope.
Therefore, Ren Zu, who made the decision, resolutely led the army and hid in the depths of the mountains.
Just less than ten days have passed, and the limited food and grass in my hands have been consumed completely.
During this period, although the grain collection team that went out to collect grain was back, it was not easy to transport the soldiers into the vast mountains without horses and other livestock...
Therefore, in the dense forest, although people carry food into the mountains every day through shoulders and backs. However, these soldiers are only enough for the entire army to eat 70% full.
What’s more important is that because the troops do not have any excess food, once the Tiger and Leopard Army discovers itself and gives it a prosperous way to survive. Then, within a maximum of two days, the 20,000 soldiers under their command will collapse directly on the battlefield...
At this moment, Ren Zu, who was frowning, was thinking about the solution with a solemn face.
However, I had been in a small tent for a day and still had no solution, and I had no idea of any clues.
At this moment, a guard suddenly rushed in and interrupted Ren Zu's thoughts.
Ren Zu, who was holding his anger, could he fart this opportunity to vent his anger?
The man who was still thinking about his thoughts just now was like a lion getting angry and roared at the guards...
"Bastard, what do you think of my order as? I didn't say that unless the sky collapses, no one can break in..."
Facing the king in front of him who might kill him at any time, the guard's face immediately became full of regret.
It shouldn't have heard that they were from Pyongyang, and rushed into the tent as soon as they were excited.
But since I had already rushed in, I was just an arrow that had no turning back and could only move forward step by step.
Seeing the venting of his eyes, Ren Zu seemed to have less anger... the guard said quickly.
"Your Majesty, I will report important things here... Lord Wang, Lord Wang has opened it, and now you are outside the tent, waiting for your summons to you..."
Ren Zu's tone was so bad that he asked back: "Who is the king, I don't see anyone now, go out right away..."
Just as the guards were about to escape from the place with their faces full of disaster.
Ren Zu's voice sounded again like a curse.
"Wait a minute, are you talking about the Ministry of Revenue Wang? No, wasn't he captured by the Tiger and Leopard Army in Pyongyang City? How could he appear here..."
The guard nodded first, then shook his head, and finally answered: "The king, the one who came is Lord Wang. As for other things, I don't know... Lord Wang is outside the tent now, so the king can ask Lord Wang directly..."
A minister captured by the Tiger and Leopard Army now appears in front of him.
Ren Zu's first thought was that Lord Wang was sent by the Tiger and Leopard Army to persuade him to surrender and be a lobbyist to the Tiger and Leopard Army.
However, thinking of Lord Wang's sincerity for himself, Ren Zu decided to meet him after a brief contemplation.
However, for a person who has completely betrayed North Korea in Ren Zu's opinion, Ren Zu did not give him any good face.
So, as soon as the so-called Lord Wang appeared in front of him, Ren Zu sneered and asked: "Mr. Wang, do you even think that North Korea is not far from the destruction of its country... Otherwise, how could you be a lobbyist for the Tiger and Leopard Army..."
As soon as Ren Zu said this, Lord Wang understood the specific reason why Ren Zu was lukewarm and even looked sarcastic...
A hint of helplessness flashed quickly on his face full of doubt.
The king quickly explained: "The king is Mingjian. The old minister is born in North Korea and dies as a ghost from North Korea. He swears to be loyal to the king and will never do anything to betray the king or betray Korea..."
Seeing the puzzled expression that quickly emerged on Ren Zu's face, Lord Wang continued to say...
"Although the old minister came to see the king, although it was instructed by the Tiger and Leopard Army. However, all of this is for the king and for the North Korean..."
"Old Chen is here to tell the king that the Tiger and Leopard Army does not seem to have the idea of letting North Korea destroy the country... The commander of the Tiger and Leopard Army asked Lao Chen to tell the king that the Tiger and Leopard Army intends to negotiate with the King. As long as the negotiation is successful, the Tiger and Leopard Army will withdraw from North Korea immediately..."
"Whether this is a conspiracy or not, the old minister believes that this is an opportunity for the king, and we must seize it..."
After hearing what the minister said, Ren Zu's first reaction was suspicion. Because at this moment, the Tiger and Leopard Army had all the advantages, and there was no need to let him go.
However, as Lord Wang said, if this is true, it is an unprecedented opportunity.
