In the fourth year of the Great Xia Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, Yang Ziqian, the Duke of North Korea, won a series of battles and defeated the northern regime after Cui Hongxu's death.
At this time, Daxia sent troops, reprimanded Yang Ziqian for abusing force and massacring civilians, and ordered him to withdraw his troops and hand over his military power.
Wu Jie led 100,000 Xia troops across the Yalu River and arrived at the front line the next day.
Yang Ziqian has reduced the northern political power to only one day's journey.
In the general's tent, Yang Ziqian was furious, his face flushed, and his eyes widened.
He changed his past submissive attitude towards the Xia envoys, angrily swore at the Daxia envoys and drove them back.
He has seen very clearly that as long as he makes the slightest concession, Daxia will move up the pole.
He can only be forced to death step by step and repeat the same mistakes.
Yang Ziqian simply gritted his teeth and prepared for a few years of arduous struggle with Daxia. Once he survived, he would become a dynasty.
A few days later, Yang Lin in Longcheng found a letter of Credence from Korea on the dragon case.
In the hall, Bai Shizhong, Song Jiang, Gao Bing, and Han Shizhong were all there, sitting neatly below.
Yang Lin was recently in Longcheng to rebuild the Miaoxin Courtyard for Duan Miaozhen. After playing for a few days, he went too far and became depressed.
Point to this letter of credence and ask the chamberlain serving at your side to read it.
The little eunuch cleared his throat and said loudly:
"The Emperor of the Xia Dynasty personally announced that Yang Ziqian, the solitary king of North Korea, had heard that the three emperors had established themselves as emperors, and that the five emperors were Zen sects. Only China had an emperor, so how could it be that it was a vassal without a king.
The vastness of the universe is not the sole authority of one master. The universe is vast and vast, and it can be divided and defended by various states. The one who covers the world is the world of the world, not the world of one person.
You are the lord of Great Xia, a king of ten thousand chariots, with thousands of cities and hundreds of millions of miles of territory, but you still have a heart of inadequacy and always want to exterminate.
In the past, Yao and Shun were virtuous and had guests from all over the world. Tang and Wu Shiren paid tribute from all directions. Emperor Yang was warlike and conquered Goryeo three times. With the strength of the Sui Dynasty, defeat was inevitable.
I have heard that the Celestial Empire has strategies to start wars, and small states also have plans to defend themselves against enemies. The essays include articles on the ethics of Confucius and Mencius, and on martial arts there are Sun Wu Tao's tactics of war. I also heard that you have chosen generals with strong muscles and formed elite divisions to invade.
A lonely place. A land of swamps, a continent of mountains and seas. You have your own preparations. How can you kneel down and serve them? If you follow them, you may not live, and if you go against them, you may not die.
We meet on the banks of the Yalu River and chat about gambling, so why be afraid of being alone? If you win alone and lose, it will be full of the will of the country. If you win alone and lose, it will be a disservice to a small country.
Since ancient times, peace has been the priority, war has been discontinued to achieve strength, so as to avoid the devastation of life and the hardships of the common people. I have sent special envoys to hope that the country will withdraw its troops, and do not bully the weak by taking advantage of the strong, which will be despised by future generations."
After Yang Lin finished reading, he sighed deeply and remained silent.
Han Shizhong was indignant, "How dare this small country of Goryeo be so rebellious!"
Yang Lin waved his hand and said: "Forcibly conquering Goryeo is not necessarily the best policy. What Yang Ziqian said is also reasonable. If I raise troops to go and pacify Goryeo, I don't know how many soldiers will be lost. I want them to be as good as falling to the toes. Who knows the Goryeo people?
He is also a hundred times more cunning than a person who breaks his toe..."
Bai Shizhong also said: "If the expedition is to be carried out without a name, and this is a critical time for Shenyang Mansion to reclaim wasteland, it is best not to create any complications."
Song Jiang disagreed and stood up and said: "Guan family, the terrain of Goryeo is dangerous, with sea access from three sides. If we can win it, it will be a blessing for all generations. There is no way to kill people in a war. If you have to kill people, why not start your own life and leave your descendants to live in comfort."
Yang Lin let out a long sigh of relief, "I'm not afraid of Goryeo, I'm afraid of Yang Ziqian. This person is not as simple as you see."
Han Shizhong stood up, with a solemn look on his face, and said in a deep voice: "Officials and ministers are willing to personally take command and subdue Goryeo for your majesty!"
Han Shizhong was in charge of the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army and had not led troops in combat for a long time, but no one doubted his ability to lead troops.
Yang Lin pondered for a long time, thinking about the pros and cons, and couldn't make up his mind for a long time.
His usual methods of splitting have been very successful in Mongolia, the Western Regions, Tubo, Dali, and Wuzhi, but they did not work in Goryeo.
Although the Koreans are no less capable of killing their compatriots than the above-mentioned countries, one advantage they have is that the winning side can quickly conquer the people of the hostile forces instead of killing them all.
This little bit of civilization is already ahead of us by countless times.
This is national consciousness... invisible, intangible, but powerful.
If there was no First Emperor, if there were no books and writings, even China would not have such a precious consciousness.
And Goryeo and Japan, because of thousands of years of imitation and learning, have a little bit of fire. This is the most fundamental reason why they can stand in the forest of nations in future generations.
Seeing that the officials were hesitant, Song Jiang scratched his neck and said: "The officials are talented and have rough strategies, but they cannot be benevolent as women. If the King of Qin had only been concerned about his officers and soldiers, how could Daxia be like today?"
With one word to wake up the dreamer, Yang Lin said: "Yang Ziqian is so rampant, how can I tolerate him, Han Wu!"
Han Shizhong stood up and came out of the queue, clasped his fists and said, "I'm here!"
"I promise you 50,000 new troops, plus Wu Jie's 100,000 troops. I want you to behead Yang Ziqian in Goryeo."

The imperial court has not fought a war for five years, but the combat effectiveness of the army has not been weakened.
Because from the generals to the soldiers, they are now professional soldiers. Under the support of the imperial court, they will have no worries about food and clothing throughout their lives and can concentrate on training.
Every day, regardless of wind or rain, civil and military forces complement each other, making them as powerful as a rainbow and happy to hear the battle.
As soon as they heard that the imperial court was sending troops to Korea, many people were a little excited and rushed to the streets to watch the army march out.
Yang Lin stood on the tower, looked at the people and horses on the imperial street, smiled and said to Song Jiang beside him: "Gongming, my tiger warriors are elites who can win every battle without a famous general."
Song Jiang smiled and nodded, with great appreciation in his eyes.
This army has a certain momentum from top to bottom.
They are not big soldiers who blindly fight with weapons. Everyone knows some military common sense and can easily defeat without being defeated, and win without being arrogant.
Under the leadership of Han Shizhong, the group formed a long snake formation and left the city one by one.
Even without preparation, the efficient court could assemble troops, transport supplies, and send troops to fight within a day.
Today’s national strength of Daxia can be seen clearly.
This is also the reason why Yelu Dashi, a great hero of his generation, dared not mention the idea of advancing eastwards.
Yang Lin stood there for two hours with his hands behind his back as he watched the soldiers gradually leaving the city.
His legs are not sore, and his body bones are still very strong, which is very rare in a king who has no love for women.
The main thing is that he is more self-disciplined and knows how to manage time. Even if he has many things to do every day, he will box on time in the morning, rain or shine.
Song Jiang was even more extreme than him, he was very relaxed at all. This black guy polished his body every day, and the most important thing was that he was not close to women and became stronger.
Yang Lin glanced at him and seemed to have thought of something, "Gongming, Chenghai Navy will also join the battle."
Song Jiang raised his eyebrows and said, "I almost forgot. Officials are wise. If Chenghai navy joins the battle, we can get twice the result with half the effort."
