The reason why Yunzheng was a little anxious to attack Qing Dasheng immediately was that firstly, strategically and tactically, "it is better to use the remaining brave men to chase the poor bandits", which gave Qing Dasheng and other rebel forces no time to recover; secondly, it was because
Out of concern about historical inertia
In the original history, after Qingdasheng came to power in Goryeo, he established the capital to fight against the Chongfang, and at the same time, he also isolated the imperial court. Soon the power was monopolized by Qingdasheng.
Soon, Xinzhong, Cai Renjing, Park Dunchun and other military attachés were dissatisfied with Qing Dasheng's rule and rebelled. Qing Dasheng's capital agents soon learned the news and Qing Dasheng sent troops to suppress it. After capturing the three men, they were exiled to the island.
Pu Baoguang, the son of the general Pu Qijian who knew the Yushitai incident, had offended Li Shaoying's wife. Li Shaoying was a veteran during the first Wuchen Rebellion and has passed away now. His wife stayed alone in the empty house and lived a lonely life. Poor Pu Baoguang bullied her.
The widow, Qing Dasheng learned that Qing Dasheng's younger brother was Li Shaoying's son-in-law. Because of this relationship, Qing Dasheng came forward to punish Pu Baoguang. Pu Qijian was worried about his son's life and death, and begged Qing Dasheng to spare his life as a general.
Qing Dasheng refused, and also dismissed Pu Qijian. Pu Qijian was an important member of Chongfang. His resignation caused Chongfang to protest against Dufang. Qing Dasheng severely attacked Chongfang and weakened him again.
The influence of Chongfang
Soon after, Zhutong, an official slave in Quanzhou, was dissatisfied with the harsh atrocities of his chief Chen Dayou, and led his soldiers to rebel. Not long after, Zhutong took control of Quanzhou and was about to attack the capital. Qingdasheng dispatched an army to
After suppressing the government troops and breaking through the city, in addition to killing leaders Zhu and other leaders, they also launched massacres in the city.
Qing Dasheng's iron-fisted methods were successful. Not only did no other military attache in the court dare to oppose him, but the generals and peasants from other places did not dare to rebel casually. However, the people of Goryeo probably never dreamed that Qing Dasheng, who thought he controlled the entire Goryeo,
, unexpectedly died suddenly when Qing Dasheng passed away. He was only thirty years old. Legend has it that the ghost of Zheng Zhongfu took away Qing Dasheng’s life at night. After all, Zheng Zhongfu was the one who promoted Qing Dasheng, and he admired him very much. Qing Dasheng killed him.
Killing Zheng Zhongfu is also a violation of the kindness of knowing and meeting him.
After the death of Qing Dasheng, a generation of heroes, the generals in the court immediately assassinated Chongxi Gongrui, Yuanjing's imperial advisor who was close to Qing Dasheng. Seeing that her beloved son was killed, the Queen Mother fell ill in anger and died at the end of the year. King Mingzong
In order to balance the forces between the DPRK and China, Li Guangting, Han Wenjun, Wen Keqian, Wen Zhangbi, Du Jingsheng, Lian Xigruo, Cao Yuanzheng and other civil and military officials were appointed to form a new government.
That's it. Qing Dasheng's sudden death brought a period of power vacuum to the Goryeo court. Not to mention the military ministers competing for power with each other, even the civil servants also tried to make a comeback to suppress the military ministers. As the king of Goryeo, Mingzong was busy dealing with the Queen Mother Gongrui.
On the other hand, they wanted to seize the opportunity to seize power and eliminate the power of the military officials. However, the power of the military officials was strong, and the only person in the court who could suppress them was Du Jingsheng. Du Jingsheng opposed Li Yifang and Zheng Zhongfu's centralization of power back then, and in a series of
He made military exploits in the process of quelling the rebellion. He was an outstanding general who was loyal to the monarch. At this time, there were strong calls for him to step forward to take control of the political power. Mingzong also wanted to rely on Du Jingsheng. However, Mingzong believed too much in Qing Dasheng that he would not allow him to centralize power.
Repeating the same mistake, while promoting Du Jingsheng, Mingzong tried to find another person to suppress Du Jingsheng. In this way, Li Yimin appeared in Mingzong's field of vision.
After Li Yifang's death, Li Yimin was wanted by Zheng Zhongfu and Qing Dasheng. Fortunately, Li Yimin happened to be leading the army to quell the rebellion, so there was a buffering opportunity. During this period, Li Yimin recruited troops and organized the surrendering army, and his strength was greatly improved. Mingzong wanted to call him back several times. He fought against Qing Dasheng, but Li Yimin considered that his strength might not be as good as Qing Dasheng's and did not want to return to the capital to fight him head-on. Now that Qing Dasheng is dead, Li Yimin is stationed outside the capital with heavy troops, and Mingzong is worried that he will engulf the capital. He would take the opportunity to cause trouble and threaten himself, so he issued an edict again asking him to return to Beijing.
In fact, Li Yimin was waiting for this opportunity. In his opinion, Du Jingsheng was too loyal to the emperor, rigid, and did not know how to adapt, so he could not threaten him at all. In 1184 (the eleventh year of Chunxi in the Southern Song Dynasty and the twenty-fourth year of Dading in the Jin Dynasty) in February of the lunar calendar, Li Yimin received the imperial edict from Emperor Mingzong and led his army back to Beijing. He met with Emperor Mingzong in the imperial palace. The ferocious Li Yimin did not take the king seriously at all, and his power soared into the sky. Emperor Mingzong was so frightened that all the officials present dared not be angry. and lamented Mingzong’s incompetence
After returning to the capital, Li Yimin began to implement his centralization policy. He took over the Chongfang, abandoned the capital house established by Qing Dasheng, and appointed many of Li Yifang's subordinates and his cronies. Then, Li Yimin would come to attack the civil servants. At that time, some sorcerers predicted Li Yimin seized this opportunity and sent General Li Shiyong and others to the palace to meet Mingzong, falsely accusing the civil servants of using sorcerers' evil words to attack the military officials. Under the threat of Li Shiyong and others, Mingzong exiled Song Qi. Cui Jihou, Wang Xuzhao and other civil servants went to the border island
Jin Zige, a subordinate of Qing Dasheng, followed Qing Dasheng in the crusade against Zheng Zhongfu and entered the palace to quell the chaos. Later, he was reused by Qing Dasheng. In order to remove Jin Zige, Li Yimin even said that Jin Zige's entry into the palace to quell the chaos was an act of disturbing the royal family. , forcing Mingzong to exile Jin Zige
Afterwards, Li Yimin gradually gained power, and by suppressing the uprisings continuously, he not only took control of the military power of Goryeo, but also gained greater prestige. Li Yimin, who thought he had a firm hold on the political power, became more and more arrogant. However, the continuous rebellions continued. There was a day of success. One summer, General Cui Zhongxian launched a rebellion and seized power from Li Yimin.
What Yunzheng was more worried about was Cui Zhongxian. The military commanders and regimes before him only knew how to suppress civil servants, but did not know that they relied on these civil servants to govern the world. As a result, the world was always in chaos, and civil uprisings broke out until Cui Zhongxian came out. After taking control of Goryeo, the military commanders' regime included civil servants, and a real political power was truly established. Cui Zhongxian was the first military man to die without accident after taking power, and his Cui family's regime continued until the Mongols invaded.
Although Yunzheng knew that many changes in the history of this world, such as the emergence and reign of the Japanese emperor, seemed to be very problematic, some directional things had not changed, so he was now particularly worried that Qing Dasheng would die suddenly. Then it led to Li Yimin, which then led to Cui Zhongxian's appearance.
Although Yun Zheng didn't think that Cui Zhongxian's appearance could save the situation for Goryeo, after all, such a person was a scourge, so it would be better to get rid of him as soon as possible. When thinking about this problem, Yun Zheng remembered the novel about traveling back to the Three Kingdoms. Many time-traveling youths planned to fight for world supremacy as soon as they time-traveled, but they had countless opportunities to kill Cao Cao and Liu Bei, but they had to find one or another reason not to kill them first, and then left the final boss, Mr. Cao, to fight with them. Huh... isn't there something wrong with this?
When Yun Zheng doesn't plan to do anything "big", he doesn't hold any power and just lives his life casually. When he has a goal in mind, he can clear out some people who may be threats in the future for this goal - such as Qing Dasheng and Li Yimin.
, Cui Zhongxian... these people are all on Yunzheng's blacklist of death.
Since they were going to fight, it was time to wait. After only three days of rest in Xijing, the Yun family army set off again and went south to attack Kaijing. Xijing was guarded by the Northern Xinjiang Navy who came to transport supplies. The Northern Xinjiang Navy returned to Yanjing last time.
Afterwards, in accordance with Yunzheng's instructions, a "Marine Corps" was established. The number was temporarily one guard. One-fifth of the twelve Yanyun Guard veterans were selected, and the rest were supplemented from military households, adopting the "old leader" approach.
He quickly trained with the new method, and then he was taken to Xijing to train while guarding.
Although the Marine Corps now only has one guard, Yunzheng's plan is far more than that. In his plan, the navy should have three fleets, and each fleet needs two marines, which means six guards.
, thirty-three thousand six hundred people. We just recently recruited a group of troops to expand the Yingyang Guards. If we recruit six more guards now, I'm afraid the imperial court will be furious. Although the Yun family is not afraid, my father is afraid.
Shuai is now in Luoyang, and such a thing will put him into a passive position, so he has carefully chosen not to expand too much for the time being. Anyway, according to Yunzheng's estimation, if the court continues to reform like this, sooner or later the whole world will become the opposite, and the court will have no time to take care of itself.
The Yun family has obtained various resources on the "island chain" again, and can do whatever they want with it. How can the imperial court control so many?
This time Yingyangwei went south, and the journey was much slower than the last time he went to Xijing. It was not that the marching ability of Yingyangwei soldiers was reduced, but that more and more Korean rebels ran to the road and surrendered. Yingyangwei
Almost every few miles that Yang Wei walked, he would encounter a group of rebels, large or small, asking to surrender. There were as many as three to five thousand, and as few as two or three hundred. Yun Zheng thought it was quite interesting at first, but later he realized that this was simply...
It's a disaster. The journey from Xijing to Kaijing. Originally, Ying Yangwei could arrive in three days with an urgent march, and an ordinary march would only take about five days. But now, because there are so many more batches - no, countless batches - they are eager to go to heaven.
Yun Zheng realized that he might not be able to reach Kaicheng in a month.
Therefore, Marshal Yun was furious and immediately issued an order: Anyone who wants to surrender should stop talking nonsense with me and go to Xijing to find General Yun Lang!
In this way, Yun Zheng threw a huge trouble to Yun Lang, who was eating kimchi in Xijing.
Yun Zheng's army was heading south, about fifty miles away from the city, when the scouting horse from the front suddenly came to report: "Report! - Young Marshal! On the Kaijing City, the white flag is flying!"
Yunzheng was stunned: "White flag? Are they going to surrender?"
Yun Yi followed him and was stunned: "What does the white flag have to do with surrender?"
Yun Zheng was stunned: "The white flag is not..." He suddenly remembered that at this time, China did not regard the white flag as surrender, so this white flag...
Yun Zheng took a deep breath: "Is Qing Dasheng really dead?"
Yun Yi looked suspicious at the side: "How could he die suddenly in the year when he was promoted to a great talent?"
But Tan Ma was shocked: "Young Marshal is really a genius. I just rushed to the edge of the city and heard those Koreans saying that Qing Dasheng was dead!"
