Although being expelled from the palace was not pleasant, Ke Shi still believed that Emperor Tianqi would not do anything to him.

This is enough for her.

Chapter 782 Li Xingli died in battle

Hanshan City.

A North Korean army of about 8000 people stopped by the river, and there was a lot of voices. Many North Korean soldiers were sweating and tired, and they stood crookedly there.

The monocular was imitated by the Ordnance Department in the fifth year of Tianqi based on what the Dutch captured during the Second Penghu Naval Battle.

The size is about the same as the previous telescope, but the observable distance is twice as far. Right now, Ming's nine-border army, generals and above are all equipped with this object for observing the battle situation.

Li Xingli, as the general of Wangjing's garrison, is also the most prestigious general next to the Korean king Li Zhen at the moment. He can only raise one hand to block the sunlight, and squint his eyes to observe the distant Hanshan city.

He doesn't even have the telescope that the Ming army has phased out, let alone the latest monocular?

"It seems that there are no traces of the golden soldiers in the city?" Li Xingli frowned, carefully observing every battlement.

But on the other side of the river, it is not close to the top of Hanshan City. No matter how good his eyesight is, he can only get a rough look, so he ordered:

"Send my orders, pave roads and build bridges, and send sentry cavalry to scout around."

"Here, the silence is so quiet that it makes my heart palpitate..."

As the order was conveyed, the North Korean soldiers complained, but under Li Xingli's order, they still slowly began to pave the road and repair the wooden bridge that was deliberately destroyed by the Hou Jin army.

On the plain, the summer is dazzling, and it is hot even if you don’t work. When you move, wearing heavy military uniforms, the upper bodies of the North Korean soldiers will soon be soaked.

The outposts of the Joseon Royal Guards consisted of musketeers, the middle section consisted of infantry, and at the end there were a small number of more than [-] cavalry.

Except for Li Xingli, only generals are eligible to wear armor, and most of the North Korean soldiers only wear uniforms.

Such a unit is a rare organic unit in North Korea. Li Xingli's troop layout is all modeled after Li Rusong who aided North Korea back then.

This is already one of the few elites in North Korea at the moment. They usually send troops to join the expedition, and they are never willing to send out such troops.

In the vast wilderness, there was a sound of hooves soon.

Flying dust surged in the distance, as if thousands of troops and horses were rushing towards them.

"The golden soldier is back, let's go! Let's go..."

A Korean sentinel galloped back with a few arrow clusters stuck in his back, exhausted his last words and fell off his horse and died.

When the sentry cavalry fell, Li Xingli saw from behind him a large number of cavalry of the Golden Army who were hundreds of steps away, and quickly ordered:

"Array, array!"

"The musketeers line up to shoot at the cavalry!"

Because of the construction of the bridge, Wang Jing's garrison was in disarray, and there were captive cavalry shouting to kill them, and people were panicked and chaotic.

Azig, who was dressed in blue full body armor, waved a tiger-headed machete and smiled grinningly: "Warriors of Daikin, follow me to kill these ignorant Nangou!"

Before the musketeers had finished gathering, the cavalry like a wave of gold rushed into the crowd of the Korean army. In the blink of an eye, the 8000 Korean army was shocked and scattered.

"Don't mess up! Don't mess up! There aren't many cavalry!"

Li Xingli soon discovered that the Zhenglan Banner cavalry led by Azig had only about [-] people, which was less than half of his own.

"The whole team will fight again, pass my order to the whole team!"

But the army was defeated like a mountain, and the North Korean army had a deep fear of the Hou Jin army, and at this moment, it could not restore the morale of the army no matter what.

The fleeing North Korean soldiers hissed and howled: "The Chinese cavalry is in ambush, run, run!"

"The cavalry are too powerful, we can't beat them!" Even some guard generals began to waver, "Let's retreat before Azig arrives!"

Li Xingli held the knife in his hand, his eyes changed slightly, and his face was full of despair: "We can't go, our horses are not as good as captives."

"Once the morale of the army is scattered, no one can escape."

Following such a sound, the North Korean army fled in all directions like a river with its embankment broken. Hundreds of people died in the crowding and trampling while fleeing.

In the North Korean army, Azig seemed to be in no man's land, killing everyone he met, and his eyes were red from killing. Soon, he noticed Li Xingli, the general of the garrison, who was surrounded by a group of guards.

He knew this man, he was a rare hero in the Korean army, and he also participated in the battle against the Japanese and aiding the Korean army!

The massacre of the impotent North Korean army has already made Azig not interested at all. Only killing such people can make him feel exciting.

Seeing Azig coming, the North Korean general gritted his teeth just now to persuade him, drew his knife and said, "General, hurry up, I will stop this slave chief!"

After all, pat the horse on the horse.

As soon as the voice fell, the head fell to the ground.

With only one knife, Azig cut off the North Korean general without hindrance, and then went straight to the front, opening his bloody mouth:

"Li Xingli, your time of death has arrived!"

When Li Xingli left Juehua Island, he had expected this defeat, but after all, Wang Ming was in front, even though he knew that this trip would be broken, he had no choice but to come.

Looking at Azig, Li Xingli's hand holding the saber was trembling slightly.

Soon, he took a deep breath and greeted her.

After about a stick of incense, Li Xingli knelt on the ground with a body full of knife marks. He raised his head vigorously, looked at Azig who was walking slowly forward from his horse, and slowly closed his eyes.

He tried his best.

Azig held the saber with both hands, pointed it at Li Xingli's hanging neck, thought for a while, but put away the saber, and said thoughtfully:

"Bury it, such a character deserves a whole corpse."

A Baylor stepped forward and flattered:

"The master is really brave. This battle killed the North Korean general Li Xingli, and the position of Dorobeile is just around the corner. This slave congratulates Dorobeile in advance!"

Azig got on his horse, looked at the defenseless North Korean army, and sneered: "Fighting the North Korean army is the most boring thing, and the Ming army is more interesting."

Immediately, he showed an extremely bored expression:

"But those southern barbarians, knowing that they are no match for my Dajin warriors, use firearms to defend the city and attack from all sides. They are really cunning!"

Nabele said: "Lord Beile, don't worry, after this battle, the two generals in North Korea's main battle Fuming, Li Xiuchen, the commander of the Southern Four Provinces, and Li Xingli, the general of Wangjing's garrison, all died at the hands of my Dajin .”

"Even if we return to China, North Korea is no longer our concern."

Azig laughed: "That's true, but the current situation is not optimistic. Horqin suffered a defeat in Mobei, and even Lin Danhan, an idiot who compared himself to Temujin, was beaten to give up Chahanhot and move north. "

"Those whores in Mongolia have all turned to the Ming Dynasty. Although North Korea's arrogance has been destroyed this time, Dajin's life is also difficult."

He put away the knife and said:

"Statistics results, report to the Great Khan!"

When Azige brought the defeat to Huang Taiji, the battle report outside Hanshan City was also sent back to Juehua Island by the defeated troops. The royal family of the Li family who were delighted to return to the capital were all terrified.

The North Korean King Li Ji Geng, who was wearing a royal robe, sat down on the ground and said in a trembling voice:

"Li Xingli died in battle!"

"How is this good, how is this good?"

As soon as Li Xingli died, the only garrison army that dared to fight fell, and the Korean generals on Juehua Island no longer had any dared to fight.

Jin Liu, the leader of Yizheng, said: "The only solution now is to ask Daming to continue to help!"

"Our country is unable to resist the Jinlu, and cannot do without the Ming army!"

Chapter 783 Zhu's Replacing Li

"Snapped--!"

Seeing the memorial that was sent back from the sea, Zhu Youxiao couldn't hide the disappointment and anger on his face, and threw it to the ground.

The emperor was so furious that several courtiers in the Nuan Pavilion were also terrified.

"What is this Li Zhen thinking? I canonized him as the king of North Korea. Did I call him such a bad thing?" Zhu Youxiao sat on the throne and asked angrily:

"Why don't you wait for Xiong Tingbi to march from the North Fourth Road and raise troops together? Does he know how much trouble he will bring to the Ming army entering the court?"

"If he does this, how many members of the feather forest of our Daming county will lose their lives in vain!"

Li Yuyuan was on Juehua Island, and no one could answer the emperor's stern admonition.

Those present were all sensible people, so they naturally knew that the emperor would not get useless anger, most of them were acting, and as for what to act, it was obvious.

Martial Yingdian University scholar Wen Tiren said: "Your Majesty, I believe that the death of the two generals Li Xingli and Li Xiuchen is enough to prove that North Korea has no power to protect the country, and as a kingdom of heaven, Daming cannot just sit idly by."

"What does Ai Qing mean...?" Although Zhu Youxiao seemed to have scolded quite fiercely, there was no anger at all on his face now.

Wen Tiren knew that he had guessed the holy will correctly, and said:

"Your Majesty, the king of North Korea, Li Ji, is mediocre. Not only can he not stabilize the domestic political situation, but he can't even protect the country. If he can't do it, we should help him."

Zhu Youxiao's eyes flickered, but he didn't speak.

"I am mobilizing all the troops in the dynasty. I can't send a large army to go on an expedition as soon as the enemy invades. First, the Wanli dynasty aided the dynasty, and then the dynasty. If this continues, let alone damage the country, can we help it?"

"Your Majesty should send a prince to North Korea to take charge of the government together with the North Korean King Li Zhen. However, the North Korean army is unable to defend the country. Our dynasty should also send troops to North Korea to help defend the city."

"In this way, in Anping, the people in North Korea enjoy their work and work, and they all respect the Holy Lord of the Celestial Dynasty!"

As Wen Tiren spoke, his tone became more and more sonorous, and at the end, he suddenly prostrated himself on the ground and kowtowed, extremely sincere.

I have to say that Wen Tiren mentioned it well. This guy's flattery ability is almost comparable to that of Wei Zhongxian. Only with such a sensible courtier in the court can the emperor be more comfortable.

Zhu Youxiao wanted to agree a long time ago, but he hesitated, and said:

"North Korea has been a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty since ancient times. The Li family has always been in charge of state affairs for generations. It is unreasonable to intervene suddenly?"

"Your Majesty!" Wen Tiren imitated Hui Shiyang, the Minister of Dali Temple, kowtowed on the hall, and shouted:

"North Korea's military equipment is slack, the Western Party, the Eastern Party...the parties are fighting endlessly, and the people are in dire straits. What's more, Xiong Tingbi has long reported that when our army from the Celestial Dynasty enters the court, the North Korean soldiers and people will definitely welcome it. Everyone is looking forward to it."

"Now the king of North Korea, Li Zhen, is so stupid and loses the hearts of the people, but I, the Ming Dynasty, assisting the state affairs, obey the destiny above, and respond to the hearts of the people below, and everyone expects it!"

"Back when Li Chenggui founded the country, my emperor Ming Taizu had to bestow the title of the country. Up to now, the lord of the heirs is mediocre, so don't hesitate any longer!"

When Zhu Youxiao heard this, he quickly got off the throne, helped Wen Tiren up, and said: "What Aiqing said is true, I am indecisive."

"But I have to think again about the candidate for the royal lord..."

Wen Tiren naturally understood that North Korea played poorly himself, and Daming would definitely step in.

Today's emperor is the master of fortitude, and the sage who created ZTE has a lot of martial arts and martial arts. At that day's court meeting, Hui Shiyang was so presumptuous, and he never got angry at all.

But now, he was furious because of a small pond report. How could it be possible without a reason?

He estimated that [-]% of the emperor wanted to put on such a play for the North Koreans. After all, taking over North Korea peacefully is not a trivial matter.

Emperor Tianqi wanted to annex North Korea. This method was much more clever than Lin Danhan's forcible annexation of Tumed.

The hearts of North Koreans are Ming, not their own king.

During the post-Jin invasion, the North Korea’s four provinces were severely corrupted. Even Wang Jing Hanshan fell, two generals died in battle, and countless armies were defeated.

Less than three years after his succession to the throne, King Lee Jae of Joseon encountered such drastic changes, and his prestige was already at freezing point.

In addition, the most prestigious concubine in the Li royal family died in the Hanshan Palace. The current Li royal family is actually unpopular.

As the lord of the heavenly dynasty, Daming needs to make use of human settings.

Donglin Party's tricks are especially effective at this time. Once the Ming army is stationed in the major cities and towns of North Korea, no matter whether the princes sent there have political skills or not, the north and south will surely be peaceful.

Under the judgments made before and after, within three generations, the prince sent by the Ming Dynasty will completely replace the Li family and rule North Korea with the help of the Ming army.

At that time, it will be just a matter of one sentence to depose Lee as the king of North Korea.

……

A few days later, it was late at night, and everything was still. In the waters off Juehua Island in southern Korea, where the Dengzhouying Navy was moored, Zhang Pan, the commander-in-chief, was sitting and meditating, when he suddenly heard someone outside the cabin say:

"Li Zheng, the Military Superintendent of the Imperial Capital Supervisor's Mansion, is Zong Bing Zhang in the camp?"

Zhang Pan pondered for a moment, searching for the name in his mind.

The Dujian Mansion now has two eunuch positions, mine supervisor and military supervisor. The former is responsible for managing mines in Jifu, cracking down on private mines, and collecting mining taxes.

The latter, as the name suggests, is set in the army.

It's just that the military supervisor of the Dujian Mansion is different from the eunuchs who supervised the army in the past. Emperor Tianqi had a clear decree that the eunuchs were strictly prohibited from interfering in military affairs.
