From the summer of the first year of Tianshun to the spring of the second year of Tianshun, it was the happiest time for many barbarian tribes in Liaodong. They burned and killed wantonly on the land of the Korean Peninsula. After several trials, the Korean Kingdom found that Shi Heng, who was stationed in Shuozhou, did not go south.
The intention was to run the northern part of the Korean Peninsula wholeheartedly.
So the Kingdom of Korea decided to fight back against those damn barbaric tribes, and the Liaodong tribes that had been punished by the Kingdom of Korea in the past and had a grudge against them, after receiving the support and some promises from the Da Ming Dynasty, were naturally not to be outdone.
The territory of North Korea from the Qingshui River to Pyongyang was turned upside down.
During this year, the Kingdom of Korea sent envoys to the Ming Dynasty many times. The conditions originally proposed were to retreat again and again, and to retreat again and again. However, Zhu Qizhen was not tempted, or in other words, the conditions the Kingdom of Korea gave him
, it was really not enough for Zhu Qizhen to stop.
Although there are still many anti-war voices in both the government and the opposition, the incident of Zhu Qizhen using a thunderbolt to accuse seven important ministers of liaising with foreign countries is still fresh in people's memory.
In addition, what the North Korean Kingdom did was very unreasonable. At least the border towns of the Ming Dynasty all stood up and stood behind and waved the flag as the die-hard supporters of North Korea after Zhu Qizhen came out.
As the Xungui Group, which had been suppressed for a long time by the pen-handed civil servants in the past, naturally stood on Zhu Qizhen's side. Moreover, the views on this matter among the civil servants were not unified, so these objections
The sound is not able to create much waves.
As for the public opinion among the people, Zhu Qizhen, a man from the future, knew very well how to guide or distort public opinion. In the early summer of the first year of Tianshun, when the war in Korea started, Zhu Qizhen took the opportunity to publish it in the newspaper
This thing was taken out.
Nowadays, each province will have its own newspaper. These are all newspapers secretly controlled by the Xuanfu Trading Company under Zhu Qizhen. Naturally, he has a group of imperial literati in his hands, standing in Zhu Qizhen, or standing in
From the perspective of the Ming Dynasty, speak well of Zhu Qizhen.
All in all, the Ming Dynasty has tolerated North Korea for nearly a hundred years. Now, no matter how hard it is to punish them, people in the world may regard our Ming Dynasty as the coward who dare not even say a word when a dog bites a piece of meat.
Another important reason is that the Ming Dynasty only dealt with North Korea, but now it has stood still. Now, many tribes in Liaodong who have suffered from oppression and enslavement by the Kingdom of North Korea for more than a hundred years have finally stood up and carried out the war.
Resisted.

At least, the information that people in the country have received is that now the Kingdom of Korea is having another fight with those barbarian tribes in xx, and there will be another fight somewhere tomorrow, while our Ming Dynasty still maintains objective neutrality.
Is it really neutral? In fact, the important ministers in the DPRK are very clear and understand that these are simply masks created by the unscrupulous emperor Zhu Qizhen. Just relying on the Liaodong tribes, they want to confront the Korean Kingdom head-on. Then
It's really not a meal.
But now tens of thousands of the Ming Dynasty's elites are eyeing the Nashuozhou area, and both Jeju Island and Tsushima Island are taken by the Ming Dynasty. The Korean Kingdom is in danger on all sides, and it is also worried that the Ming Dynasty will suddenly intervene without knowing when.
knife.
It is precisely because of fear of the Ming Dynasty that the Korean Kingdom has retained its strength, so the Liaodong tribes can compete with the Korean Kingdom.
Although those tribes in Liaodong said they were fighting vigorously, in fact, the benefits they gained were more than the numbers on gold and silver. And many business groups of the Ming Dynasty stayed in the Shuozhou area.
It can be said that in just one year, Shuozhou has transformed from an inconspicuous Korean city to the largest trade bazaar opened by the Ming Dynasty in the Korean Kingdom.
If you want to make money here, fine, no matter who is standing behind you, you have to pay taxes. Then here, you can sell various materials to the Liaodong tribes and purchase the Liaodong tribes from them.
He bought Korean products and a large amount of money and silk. Then he returned to the interior of the Ming Dynasty and resold them.
Even weapons will be traded with those Liaodong tribes. However, only the Xuanfu merchant group is qualified to trade weapons. They use weapons from those Liaodong tribes in exchange for a large amount of looted by Liaodong tribes.
The supplies and even the population came.
After identification, most of these people will be released back to their hometowns. Of course, these hometowns are already under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, and those captured Korean soldiers will be the same as those they were captured before.
Together they rushed to the border towns in Liaodong to build roads and wharves.
It was this tug-of-war that lasted for nearly a year, which caused great suffering to the entire Korean Kingdom. In the area north of Pyongyang on the Korean Peninsula, war smoke was almost everywhere, and more than a million people were displaced.
Similarly, many tribes in Liaodong have also experienced more than a year of attrition wars, and their strength has been greatly damaged. At this time, Shi Heng dispatched troops from Shuozhou with lightning speed, and in just seven days, they crossed the
The Daning River and the Qingshui River captured Xinanzhou, an important North Korean town located south of the Qingshui River.
As soon as Sinanju fell into the hands of the Ming Dynasty, the straight-line distance between Pyongyang, the capital of the Joseon Dynasty, and the elite Ming army led by Shi Heng was only two days' journey, and there were only two city walls in between.
Of course, Shi Heng has his own reasons. At the beginning, our Ming Dynasty gave you a one-month deadline for the Kingdom of Korea, but now, a full year has passed, and you have not yet made up your mind and come up with a charter.
Come.
If I, the Ming Dynasty, don't take any action, wouldn't it mean that you and other small countries will look down upon you? Maybe all the vassals in the world will think that I, the Ming Dynasty, don't keep my word.
At this time, North Korea and North Korea are really in chaos. The young master Li Hongwei is still a little kid with few decisions, but those ministers are no longer what they used to be. In other words, the situation in North Korea now has reached
At this critical moment of life and death, many ministers have already begun to make their own calculations.

And just when they were arguing and arguing in the court and couldn't come up with an idea, Lord Shouyang's mansion welcomed a few rare guests...
Li Yao, who had been banned from the mansion for more than half a year after the death of King Wen Zong, Li Yao, who had just been lifted from the ban, was sitting in the main hall, while all the irrelevant people in the hall had been driven out of the room, even serving tea and water
, were replaced by Li Yao's beloved concubine.
In the main hall, seven officials including Li Quanzhu, Han Minghui, Zheng Linzhi, and Jin Caorui were sitting. At this moment, everyone's expressions looked very serious, even sinister.
Li Yao squinted his eyes and stroked the short beard under his chin. The cold light that flashed through his eyes from time to time revealed a sinister and ruthless look.
As Li Yao's chief confidant, Chao Minghu swept around some people in the arena and shouted in a deep voice: "Everyone, today our North Korea has reached a critical moment of survival. We must not hesitate any longer. The king is young now, and there are many people around him.
It is a treacherous minister who has caused the country of our country to be destroyed. But you, the monarch, have the ability and prestige to turn the tide. I hope that for the sake of the millions of people in our country, please do whatever it takes.
, shoulder this important responsibility.”
"Yes, only you, the great king, can take on the responsibility. The current king is like a marionette in the hands of Huang Furen, Jin Zongrui and others. If you don't take action, the power of North Korea will definitely fall..."
The seven people in the venue all bowed to the Suyang Lord Li Yao and expressed their bitter condolences, as if if Li Yao did not come out now, the century-old Korean empire would collapse.
"I accept the good intentions of all the ministers. However, now that I have no soldiers and no board, how can I accomplish anything? You must not forget that the military power is in the hands of Jin Zongrui. If Gu has any slight movement, what will happen to the army in the city?
Can you just watch?" Li Yao pretended to sigh and said: "Seeing the war in my country, North Korea, the people were displaced and their families were destroyed. As the son of King Sejong, I was so close that I stood by and watched. It is really painful."
"Your Majesty, I have a plan to get rid of Jin Zongrui..." Han Minghui, who was most valued by Lord Shuyang and regarded as his ovary, finally came to Li Yao's ear. After whispering carefully, he originally
Li Yao, who was already moved, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He turned his head to look at Han Minghui with a hint of surprise.
"Your Majesty, this is the right time. If you don't take it, it will be difficult for Your Majesty to have another chance in the future." Han Minghui begged sincerely.
"In this case, for the survival of our Korean kingdom, I will take a risk." Li Yao stood up, clenched his fists, and glanced at these confidants. "I am determined to see Jin Zongrui tonight.
"
"Maharaja!" After hearing these words, several people in the room all raised their heads. Their eager eyes revealed their greed and desire for power and glory. At this moment, the residence of Maharaja Shouyang
Inside, hundreds of private soldiers supported by Lord Shouyang were already ready to go.
That night, a large group of Li Yao from Shouyang pretended to visit Jin Zongrui, chatting about domestic matters, and stayed until nightfall before getting up and leaving. Jin Zongrui saw off the guests in person, and when he walked to the door of his house, a cold hammer hit him. Jin Zongrui fell down and his brain burst on the spot.
.
After beating left prime minister Kim Jong-seo to death, Prince Shouyang's private troops rushed to the palace and hijacked Danjong before anyone had time to react.
After taking control of Ruizong, Li Yao issued several decrees in the name of Danzong, killed several of Danzong's hard-core ministers and generals, and completely controlled the military power of Pyongyang, the royal capital, in his own hands.
At this point, the Korean civil and military forces who had originally focused on the war came to their senses. However, the situation has now been determined. In just a few days, Li Hongwei was forced to secede in Li Yao and was honored as Mrs. Gongyi Wenwen.
King.
And Li Yao, who couldn't wait to ascend the throne, wrote a letter to Ming Dynasty on the day he ascended the throne, but what he didn't expect was that, or rather, his behavior would make Ming Dynasty, who had been paying attention to the situation in North Korea for the past two years,
The government and the public were in an uproar.
