Chapter 262 Set out toward Goryeo

After hearing the news from the Jinyiwei reported to Li Chenggui, Zhu Qi's attention was also pulled from the grassland to the Goryeo Peninsula.

After all, Li Chenggui was digging a hole by himself to get involved.

Now Li Chenggui has no major threat. After the Ming Dynasty dealt with the Northern Yuan Dynasty, he naturally had to deal with the warlords on the Goryeo Peninsula, and Li Chenggui was the first target to be affected.

When arranged for the Jinyiwei to assassinate and capture Li Chenggui alive, Zhu Qi also began to dispatch troops.

Some people may ask, isn’t this the right to dispatch troops and generals the Ming Dynasty Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang?

How can you, a mere Liao king, have the power to do such things?

But don’t forget that Zhu Qi was appointed as the military commander of Liao before.

In other words, all matters in Liao are under Zhu Qi's command, and this position has never been resigned.

The affairs of the Goryeo Peninsula are naturally under Zhu Qi's control. After all, a large part of the Goryeo Peninsula belongs to Liao.

Therefore, it is common for Zhu Qi to dispatch troops and generals, not to mention that he is still in Yingtian Prefecture and has also told Zhu Yuanzhang about this.

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Zhu Qi had ideas about the Goryeo Peninsula, he naturally clapped his hands and handed over the matter directly to Zhu Qi.

If anyone among the sons now is the most trusted by Zhu Yuanzhang, then there is no need to ask, it must be Zhu Qi, the King of Liao.

Since his mother passed away, Zhu Qi has worked much more diligently now.

The main reason is that he saw that life is impermanent, birth, old age, sickness and death are common. Although he has traveled through time, he is not immortal.

Zhu Yuanzhang's third son in history died before Zhu Di ascended the throne.

If it is really based on history, then I don’t know how many years I will be the King of Liao, and if I really die early.

Then you must do the things you haven't finished before, at least you must take out the general direction for the Ming Dynasty, so that you can be worthy of the people in the world.

Although Zhu Qi himself is not the kind of person who can be loved by others for the sake of the world, since he has this ability and the prince has this right, he naturally does as much as he can.

What's more, he has long been disgusted with Bangzi. If he keeps Goryeo at this time, it will definitely be a disaster in the future.

History has proven this, so Zhu Qi does not intend to allow the Goryeo Peninsula to continue to exist independently.

Besides, as early as the Qin and Han dynasties, this peninsula was part of our China, and now it is no big problem to just recover it.

But the next big problem is that the grasslands in the Northern Yuan Dynasty are vast and sparsely populated.

If you want to control it, although it is difficult, the difficulty mainly lies in the fact that you want to fully control such a large territory.

This difficulty is not difficult for the herdsmen on the grassland to control.

In fact, it is quite simple to control herders. Although they advocate force, as long as they can give them a stable life and a way to survive.

Most herders actually won’t rebel or fight.

After all, they are also human beings. If they are human beings, they will seek benefits and avoid harm. They will live a life of fear and fear. If they can live a stable life with the Ming Dynasty, they will definitely be the same as the Ming Dynasty. Do you still need to think about it?

But the people on the Goryeo Peninsula are different. They have a strong nationality. Although there is no concept of nationalism rising now, they cannot resist the large number of people on the Goryeo Peninsula.

It is very difficult for so many people to fully control it.

If there is a person as ambitious as Li Chenggui, and causes some trouble, it is a perfect rebellion.

Although the Ming Dynasty suppressed and rebelled was not a big problem, if the frequency of one after another was very high, it would be a bit of a headache.

After all, it must be managed after occupying it. If it is effectively reduced, the frequency of rebellion on the Goryeo Peninsula is a science. Fortunately, Zhu Qi also has some suitable methods.

The first thing is to have a gentle policy and use local officials to manage the local area.

Instead of directly planting Ming officials in the airborne, at least the officials who directly contact the people should be more suitable to use Goryeo locals.

It doesn’t matter if those in charge of officials can use officials from the Ming Dynasty.

In addition, find the descendants of the former Goryeo King, and must support them and be a puppet first.

In any case, the Wang family has been ruling the highland for hundreds of years. Although they are not so popular among the people, they still let the royal family of Goryeo continue to rule, so that the Goryeo people can feel more comfortable.

Then he slowly transferred his power to the Ming Dynasty, and then gradually assimilated the Goryeo through other methods. He gradually became the territory of our Ming Dynasty?

And after being educated, those ordinary people will definitely become the people of our Ming Dynasty.

After all, I, the Han people, dare not say anything else, but assimilation is definitely the best in the world.

Zhu Qi is still very confident about this. As long as the situation can be stabilized at the beginning, there will be no problem with the subsequent assimilation.

Zhu Yuanzhang naturally agreed with Zhu Qi's plans. After taking them to the court to discuss them with everyone, he quickly made a specific discussion.

In this regard, these ministers are more good at this. After all, they all started from scratch with Zhu Yuanzhang, and many of them have worked hard in the world.

These Huairou routines are naturally very familiar with, but the span between them is probably 50 years shorter, and hundreds of years long.

But it is also completely affordable, which is better than what is now needed to let Goryeo continue to be independent.

If you didn't know about the Pacific Ocean and the more territories of the island countries next to you, Zhu Yuanzhang might have asked Goryeo to continue to establish a country, saving some trouble.

But now that we already know, it is natural that we cannot let it go. It is definitely the most reassuring to take down the territory held in our own hands.

But the first thing is to unify the entire Goryeo under the banner of the Ming Dynasty.

If you do this, you may have to send troops to attack Goryeo again. Of course, if you send troops, you cannot directly be in the name of the Ming Dynasty. So Zhu Qi quickly found the puppet he had supported before, which was Wang Mian.

Although Wang Mian can be seen as having a little ambition, he is very brave and has no ability and is very obedient.

If Daming hadn't been following him for this period of time, he would have been beaten down by Li Chenggui long ago.

So Zhu Qi decided to use Wang Mian's name to unify the Goryeo Peninsula. At that time, he would just pick a young man from Wang Mian's son and be the King of Goryeo.

As for why Wang Mian was not allowed to be the King of Goryeo, of course, the most important thing is to worry about being unable to control it.

Although Wang Mian has not performed well recently, and according to various signs, he is definitely a fool, but after all, he is an adult.

As long as you are an adult, you are in danger of losing control. What if there are a few powerful Koreans around you, what should I do if you help him?

Zhu Qi didn't want to take any risks, and if he found a child to be the king, there would be absolutely no risk.

At least this fig leaf is still blocking it, and the people will not say much.

At that time, just keep a gentle policy and slowly assimilate the people.

As for what to do with Wang Mian, is it still necessary to say?

I definitely can't stay in Goryeo anymore, maybe I can't live without any chance of living.

But this is not something Zhu Qi is in charge, and Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely have made arrangements long ago.

Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng were naturally transferred back to Liaodong to prepare to cooperate with Wang Mian to attack Goryeo.

On the other hand, Wang Mian didn't know how to use his chess piece on the Ming Dynasty.

He heard the news sent by King Zhu Qi of Liao, saying that he wanted to arrange personnel to hang his own flag to unify the Goryeo Peninsula. Wang Mian was so excited.

He was thinking about the scene of taking the throne and becoming the King of Goryeo.

To be honest, this was something I never thought about before meeting His Highness the King of Liao, but now my dream is so close.

Wang Mian was so excited, don’t mention it.

He couldn't even sleep well every day, so he was looking forward to the Ming army coming quickly, and his expectations were not waiting for too long.

In the next month, that is, in February of 2017, Hongwu.

The Ming army had already arrived at the Goryeo Peninsula.

These troops came down from the grassland and returned to their original place. After resting for two months, they rushed to the Koryo Peninsula to carry out the next combat plan.

Needless to say, the level of combat is definitely one of the best elite troops in the world.

The other warlords received funding from the Ming Dynasty, and at this time, they naturally fully cooperated with the Ming Dynasty's actions.

Those self-employed individuals who take personal actions either surrender immediately after receiving letters from the Ming Dynasty.

Or just like Li Chenggui, he planned to make the last wave of resistance, but even Li Chenggui planned to make the last wave of resistance, he had already figured out the way of retreat, and even the people who came to Japan had already found it.

Of course, ordinary warlords don’t know about these things.

However, the fact that the Ming Dynasty had sent troops spread suddenly, and almost few of them dared to rise up and resist.

Most of the Goryeo warlords surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, to be precise, they surrendered to Wang Mian. After all, the banner he raised was still Wang Mian.

As a descendant of the Goryeo royal family, Wang Mian also took a lot of bonuses at this time.

He spoke so generously, and he walked out in the same way as he left, but the warlords also knew that he was just a puppet of the Ming Dynasty.

But when a puppet can become the King of Goryeo, no one else will have this opportunity.

If we don’t say much about anything else, the Ming army arrived in Goryeo.

The situation was quickly controlled, and only Li Chenggui's army launched a counterattack.

As the largest warlord in Goryeo, Li Chenggui occupied almost 60% of Goryeo's territory and had the largest number of troops.

If they had relied solely on Wang Mian, their troops and abilities would have been swept by Li Chenggui long ago.

Now that the Ming Dynasty has come to an end, the scene is different. Without the restraint of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, the total number of elite troops of the Ming Dynasty was 100,000, and after being photographed on the battlefield.

Li Chenggui is not enough to see this. Although Li Chenggui's troops are very elite, the Ming Dynasty is still better when it comes to individual combat capabilities.
