Chongzhen Chat Group

A large cart staggered into the capital city gate. There were four people sitting inside. Judging from their clothes and sitting positions, they should be three servants. They seemed to be two guards, a bookboy, and a master. Their faces were all ugly and full of sorrow.

These four people were the envoys sent by North Korea to ask for help. They finally met the new governor at Denglai Governor's Yamen two days ago. What surprised them was that this Master Zhongcheng seemed to be different from anyone before. Although he promised them that he would personally lead troops to support North Korea, they would not believe that even the most powerful Yuan Keli had no reason to personally lead troops into battle. After all, the governor was just a civilian official!

Fortunately, the Zhongcheng Master still agreed to let them come to the capital and ask for help from the court. No, they cared about their motherland, traveled day and night, and finally arrived at the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

In order to prevent possible accidents, they did not dare to blatantly reveal their identities as North Korean envoys and went to Beijing disguised as ordinary people of the Ming Dynasty. Anyway, several of them are very good at Chinese. As long as they don't show their identity seals, everyone will think that they are from the Ming Dynasty.

The reason why their faces are so ugly and full of sorrow now is that after they stepped into the capital, they actually heard that the Jianlu army invaded the capital in the second half of last year, and even almost captured the capital.

Fortunately, the Ming Emperor was courageous and did not escape. He dared to fight Jianlu to the end. Otherwise, if it were the king of his country, he would have signed an alliance under the city, just like last time.

But no matter what, it can't change the fact. That is, although Ming Dynasty is huge, it seems that it is not strong anymore. Thinking of the Ming Dynasty during the Wanli period, no one could reach the capital city at that time. At this time, does Ming still have the ability to really help his country?

Wu Daji, the leader, was not optimistic, especially after seeing the traces left by the ravages of Jianlu in the capital. He estimated that the Ming Emperor was too exhausted to clean up the mess, and he must not have the heart to care about North Korea. After all, today's North Korea has nominally broken away from the vassal relationship with the Ming Dynasty. If North Korea is ignored, other countries will not say anything.

The four Koreans were thinking depressedly when they suddenly heard lively sounds coming from outside the car. This movement is completely different from the outside of the city. Why is it so lively? They hadn't just experienced the Jianlu invasion, so they probably didn't have much energy, at least they wouldn't be so lively!

Several people looked at each other with doubts on their faces, wondering what the situation was.

Wu Daji pondered for a moment and then ordered the book boy: "Go and inquire about the situation in the capital. At least we should know the situation in the capital so that we can have an idea."

The book boy immediately agreed and stood up quickly. Unexpectedly, after sitting for a long time, he lost his balance and almost fell down. Fortunately, the two guards helped him.

Wu Daji didn't blame him. He traveled day and night and didn't even get much sleep. It was normal to be tired.

The carriage pulled over and stopped for about half an hour. When Wu Daji thought that something had happened to the book boy, or that he simply ran away and did not want to return to North Korea, the book boy finally came back.

Wu Daji originally wanted to reprimand him, but seeing the boy's excitement, he forgot about the reprimand and quickly asked what was going on outside.

"Sir, I'm so happy, so happy!" the book boy almost cried with laughter as he reported, "The Ming Dynasty is still the Ming Dynasty, it's really amazing..."

"What are you talking about! Tell me the important point!" Wu Daji felt very itchy upon hearing this and immediately demanded loudly. Unconsciously, his spirit lifted a lot.

The other two guards were also curious and looked at the book boy, waiting for his next words.

"Sir, the Lord Zhongcheng we met is indeed a powerful figure. During the Battle of Changli..."

As soon as the gossip about Lu Xiangsheng's deeds came out, Wu Daji and others were stunned. As expected, the Ming Dynasty had a vast territory, rich resources, and a large population, and even there were such people with both civil and military skills. It seems that it is a blessing for North Korea that he can serve as governor of Denglai. I said before that leading the army personally is definitely not child's play!

"Sir, there is more, there is more!" The book boy introduced excitedly, "The reason why the Ming Dynasty was invaded by the invaders was because there were traitors. They sold grain, iron and other materials to the invaders, and also brought military intelligence..."

"Damn it, damn it!" Wu Daji cursed loudly, "These Shanxi merchants were cut to pieces with a thousand knives. It's really satisfying. Okay, okay!"

If it weren't for these Shanxi merchants, Liaodong Jianlu would never be so strong, and they would definitely be dealt with by the Ming Dynasty. Even if not, they will definitely be too busy to attack North Korea and force North Korea to sign an alliance under the city walls. It is such a shame and humiliation to think that North Korea surrendered to those barbarians!

"Just two days ago, in front of the Ming Dynasty Loyalty Hall, more than 500 Jurchen Tatars, real Jurchen Tatars, stood like this in two rows, and they all killed the sacrificial flags..."

Wu Daji was even more surprised when he heard the scholar's revelation again. He quickly ordered: "Quick, go to the Ming Zhonglie Hall first. I want to see those heads in person, hurry up!"

If other things are a bit false and the rumors may be exaggerated, then those heads are hanging there. Only by seeing them in person can you truly know. Those were the heads of more than five hundred Jurchen Tatars! Think about it, so many people died in North Korea during the last war, but there was not even a Jurchen Tatar head. If the head hanging in front of the Hall of Loyalty and Martyrs is true, then the things mentioned before are probably not the same. It's absolutely true!

They hurried to Fengtianmen Square. Before the car stopped, Wu Daji wanted to get out of the car, but he almost fell because he was unsteady. Fortunately, the guards helped him.

But these are small things, not worth mentioning. Wu Daji looked up and was immediately surprised by the Ming Dynasty Zhonglie Hall built of cement.

In fact, you can't blame him. After all, cement is a new thing and he has never seen it before. And the Ming Dynasty Zhonglie Hall is majestic and solemn. It is really shocking to the Koreans who live in isolation.

On both sides of the tall gate of the Ming Dynasty Zhonglie Hall, there are long rows of prisoner heads hanging on each side. There seemed to be a lot of people watching there. When Wu Daji saw it, he quickly walked over and took a closer look.

Although he has never seen the real head of a Jurchen Tatar, he has seen a living Jurchen Tatar, so while recalling it, he confirmed that it seemed that it was really a Jurchen Tatar, not a fake head!

In fact, when he saw that these heads were really hanging here and allowed to be watched by the people, he knew that they must be real. Otherwise, who would dare to hang them like this? If they were found to be fake, wouldn't it be a disgrace to the court?

Wu Dajishun took him to visit the Ming Dynasty Zhonglie Hall. After seeing and hearing the deeds of the Ming Dynasty Zhonglie, he immediately felt that the Ming Dynasty was still full of talents and loyal and brave people. After hearing a lot about the Ming emperor, he finally couldn't bear it anymore. We must quickly go see the Ming Emperor!
