Chapter 290 Goryeo Surrendered, Zhu Di Was Stunned!
Chapter 290 Goryeo surrendered, Zhu Di was stunned!
The King of Goryeo returned to power.
Bring order out of chaos.
After Li Chenggui was assassinated, Li Chenggui's family and confidants were surrounded by the Goryeo army that had been arranged in advance.
Kill, kill.
Those who go to jail go to jail.
All the military power of Li Chenggui was taken into the hands of the King of Goryeo.
Even the commander of the front line, the King of Korea, replaced his trusted general.
Overnight.
Goryeo underwent earth-shaking changes.
Civil unrest continued.
After the King of Goryeo killed Li Chenggui's family and confidants with thunderous means, he began to reorganize the court.
Minister of the court.
Can be retracted.
Gather them all.
Those who cannot be gathered together will be killed.
The King of Goryeo showed no mercy.
Killing heads rolling in.
Bodies were everywhere.
Bleeding and drifting.
Goryeo Capital City, formerly
There was a strong smell of blood remaining in the hall, the floor tiles were not dry yet and were wet, and there was still some bright red blood remaining in the gaps. "Three Six Seven"
All civil and military officials lined up in the main hall.
They lowered their heads.
Fear remained on his face.
The cruelty of the King of Goryeo's thunder these days made them tremble with fear.
Originally they thought the King of Korea was a sick tiger, but unexpectedly the sick tiger suddenly showed its fangs and claws, telling everyone that even if he was a sick tiger, he could tear them apart.
The original neutral party all wisely sided with the King of Korea.
As for the ministers who were originally royalists, they became more loyal to the King of Korea.
“Your Majesty has arrived————!!!”
The eunuch's sharp voice sounded in the hall, and all the civil and military officials were shocked. They raised their heads slightly and saw ten piles of people surrounding the Goryeo Lord in yellow uniform.
They did not dare to face the holy face directly, and could only see the yellow hem of King Chu's clothes, which kept swinging as the King of Goryeo moved around.
The King of Goryeo sat on the dragon chair on the steps, overlooking the civil and military officials below.
All civil and military officials lowered their heads.
A gesture of surrender.
The King of Korea was in a happy mood.
Missing is the eyesore Li Chenggui.
No one dared to contradict him in the court.
This feeling is so wonderful.
Thinking that he had almost lost Goryeo because he wanted to occupy the twin cities of the Yuan Dynasty, the King of Goryeo felt that he should reflect on it and never lose the watermelon and pick up the sesame seeds like this again.
"The rebellious traitor Li Chenggui and his rebellious gang have all been put to death."
"This is thanks to your efforts."
The King of Goryeo praised those loyal ministers, and then they were promoted and rewarded.
This group of loyal ministers were immediately grateful.
As for those officials who had remained neutral and wisely protected themselves before, the King of Goryeo lost his good looks.
But he didn't punish them.
He was back in power after all.
The court is not yet stable.
He also needed this group of people to help him maintain stability among his courtiers.
Therefore, the King of Korea just beat this group of people.
Let them do good work for Korea.
Don't let him down again.
Otherwise he would never tolerate them again.
After the rewards and punishments became clear, the civil and military officials became more loyal and reverent to the King of Goryeo.
Civil unrest was resolved.
It is necessary to solve external hidden dangers.
Those loyal ministers spoke one after another.
"Your Majesty, the army of Zhu Di, King of Yan of the Ming Dynasty, attacks our territory of Goryeo day and night, and they are extremely despicable. They use prisoners and our Goryeo people as vanguards to fight with our Goryeo soldiers."
"We Goryeo soldiers and Goryeo people were fighting each other and losing their lives."
"This is not good for us in Korea."
"And the Ming Dynasty has been attacking me, Goryeo, for so long."
"It's obvious that they want to destroy Goryeo."
"We must find a way to deal with Ming's army."
"In addition, Korea is in short supply of food."
"If we keep fighting like this."
"The people will run out of food."
"Korea will be without food."
"In this way, we, Goryeo, will be completely wiped out..."
The King of Korea above was shocked.
Is the situation in Korea already so critical?
He had previously been thinking about regaining power.
Thinking about how to kill Li Chenggui.
However, I didn't expect that after killing Li Chenggui, there would still be such a big problem.
Because all he could think about before was seizing power.
So I didn’t even think about how to solve the problem of food shortage between the Ming army and Goryeo.
The King of Korea was at a loss.
He looked at the ministers below.
"My dear friends, do you have any solution?"
Ministers, you look at me and I look at you.
They all shook their heads.
"The Ming army is so powerful."
"It is said that the one who attacks our country now is Zhu Di, King of Yan of the Ming Dynasty, who uses his fiefdom army to attack. The strength of this army is less than one-tenth of the strength of the Ming Dynasty.
"Just an army of the Ming Dynasty vassal king can defeat us in such a mess."
"If the Ming Dynasty's entire army is dispatched."
"We, Korea, will definitely not be able to resist."
"Furthermore, the Ming Dynasty's conspiracy made the people have no intention of farming and abandoned the fertile fields to dig out ginseng and raise cattle. As a result, now the ginseng piles up and the horns of the cattle are cut off.
“There are very few cattle available for farming.”
"Ginseng cannot be used as food."
"Even if we order the people to grow food now, water from afar cannot cure thirst nearby. If we want to solve the current food crisis in Goryeo, we must find a way.
"And Ming Dynasty rejected our peace request."
"He even used the matter of suing for peace to play tricks on us, allowing Zhu Di to attack three cities in Korea overnight."
“Da Ming clearly wants to destroy us, Goryeo.
"Is there any other way?"
"Damn it! Didn't the Ming Dynasty previously claim to be a celestial kingdom, and as long as it paid tribute to it, it would not attack other weak countries? But now, I heard that the vassals of the Ming Dynasty are constantly attacking other small countries."
"Why did the Ming Dynasty suddenly undergo such a big change?"
"Before, we could treat Ming Dynasty as a scapegoat, but now Ming Dynasty seems to have suddenly become smarter, which makes it difficult to deal with it."
The ministers whispered.
His face was full of sorrow that could not be relieved.
The so-called nest invasion has no eggs left intact.
If Goryeo was really destroyed, they, the important officials of the imperial court who had been aloof all day long, would probably become prisoners, worse off than life or death.
"Your Majesty, why don't we surrender to the Ming Dynasty, gain glory and wealth, and avoid death?"
"What do you think?"
At this time, a minister suggested.
Countless civil and military officials looked at the man who spoke.
They were moved.
However.
"Previously, we wanted to treat Ming Dynasty as our suzerainty, and even brought tributes to Ming Dynasty, but Ming Dynasty had such an attitude. I think surrendering is useless.
"Surrender is different from recognizing the Ming Dynasty as the suzerain state."
"Recognize the Ming Dynasty as the suzerain state."
"I just pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty on a regular basis."
"Other than that, nothing else is needed."
"However, surrender means that the whole country surrenders, and everything in Goryeo will be dominated by the Ming Dynasty..."
The minister who explained did not continue.
But everyone already knew what he meant.
Everyone looked ugly.
However, this may be the only way to survive and even gain glory and wealth.
All civil and military officials looked upward.
Waiting for the decision of the King of Korea.
The King of Korea was silent for a long time.
He also knew that this might be the only way.
No way.
The King of Korea could only agree.
So, he ordered the generals to open the city gate and surrender.
Outside Goryeo City.
The wind and sand are rolling.
Tens of thousands of Ming Dynasty cavalry stared at the closed city gate in front of them, intending to launch an siege.
That's when.
White flags were raised on the city wall.
The city gate slowly opened.
Zhu Di, who was riding a horse and wearing armor, was stunned when he saw this scene.
A look of disbelief.
He fought hard for one and a half years in Korea.
Such a dramatic surrender?
